                        CHANGE-IN-CONTROL SEVERANCE PLAN


                  The Board of Directors of The Bank of Glen Burnie and Glen
Burnie Bancorp adopted a Change-in-Control Severance Plan effective February 12,
1998 in order to provide severance benefits upon a Change in Control for
directors and for employees who are not otherwise covered by an existing
employment agreement or change-in-control severance agreement. On August 9,
2001, the Board of Directors approved certain amendments to the Plan which are
incorporated into this Amended and Restated Change-in-Control Severance Plan.

                                    ARTICLE I
                                   DEFINITIONS

                  The following words and phrases, when used in the Plan with an
initial capital letter, shall have the meanings set forth below unless the
context clearly indicates otherwise.

                  1.1 "AFFILIATE" shall mean any "parent corporation" or
"subsidiary corporation" of the Company, as such terms are defined in Sections
424(e) and (f), respectively, of the Code.

                  1.2 "BANK" shall mean The Bank of Glen Burnie, and any
successor to its interest.

basis: the regular weekly gross rate of salary payable to such Participant in
accordance with the Employer's usual payroll procedures; and

                           (b) with respect to each Participant paid on an
hourly basis: an amount equal to the product of (i) the Participant's straight
time gross hourly wage rate, exclusive of overtime, and (ii) the number of hours
that the Participant is regularly scheduled to work for the Employer per week.

                  1.4 "BOARD" shall mean the Board of Directors of the Bank or
the Company, as the case may be.

                  1.5 "CHANGE IN CONTROL" shall mean any one of the following
events: (i) the acquisition of ownership, holding or power to vote more than 25%
of the Bank's or the Company's voting stock, (ii) the acquisition of the ability
to control the election of a majority of the Bank's or the Company's directors,
(iii) the acquisition of a controlling influence over the management or policies
of the Bank or the Company by any person or by persons acting as a "group"
(within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), or
(iv) during any period of two consecutive years, individuals (the "CONTINUING
DIRECTORS") who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board of
Directors of the Bank or the Company (the "EXISTING BOARD") cease for any reason
to constitute at least two-thirds thereof, provided that any individual whose
election or nomination for election as a member of the Existing Board was
approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the Continuing Directors then in
office shall be considered a Continuing Director.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of (i), (ii) and (iii) hereof,

Change in Control. For purposes of this paragraph only, the term "person" refers
to an individual or a corporation, partnership, trust, association, joint
venture, pool, syndicate, sole proprietorship, unincorporated organization or
any other form of entity not specifically listed herein. The decision of the
Board as to whether or not a Change in Control has occurred shall be conclusive

of the Board, the Participant's willful misconduct, breach of fiduciary duty
involving personal profit, intentional failure to perform stated duties, willful
violation of any law, rule or regulation (other than traffic violations or

                                  PARTICIPATION

                  Participation in the Plan shall be limited to employees and

                                   ARTICLE III
                  CONDITIONS FOR PAYMENT OF SEVERANCE BENEFITS;
                          AMOUNT OF SEVERANCE BENEFITS

                  3.1 CONDITIONS FOR PAYMENT OF SEVERANCE BENEFITS. A
Participant shall be entitled to collect the Severance Benefits set forth in
Section 3.2 of the Plan in the event that (i) the Participant voluntarily
terminates employment or Board service, as the case may be, during the Protected
Period, or (ii) the Bank or the Company or their successor(s) in interest
terminate the Participant's employment or Board service, as the case may be, for
any reason other than Just Cause during the Protected Period.

                  3.2 AMOUNT OF SEVERANCE BENEFITS. If a Participant becomes
entitled to Severance Benefits pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof, the Bank shall
provide the Participant with the Severance Payment and Medical Benefits, if any,
in each instance based on the Participant's position with the Employer and, in
some instances, Years of Service on the date of the Change in Control, as set
forth on the Schedule of Severance Benefits attached hereto as it may be amended
by resolution of the Board from time to time. To the extent the Severance
Payment on such Schedule is expressed in a number of weeks, the amount of such
Severance Payment shall be determined by multiplying such Participant's Base Pay
by such number of weeks. If the Severance Benefits include Medical Benefits, the
Participant shall be entitled to Medical Benefits up to the dollar amount set
forth on such Schedule. Each Participant shall be entitled to COBRA benefits for
the period of time mandated by COBRA commencing on the date the Participant's
employment terminated. The amount of any Medical Benefits hereunder shall be
used to pay the Participant's (and any of the Participant's covered dependents')
health care plan premiums pursuant to such COBRA coverage, up to the aggregate
dollar amount of such Medical Benefits.

                  3.3 TIME OF PAYMENT. The amount of the Severance Payment will
be paid in either (i) a lump sum amount within ten days of the later of (a) the
date of the Change in Control and (b) the Participant's last day of employment
or service with the Employer, or a successor to its interest, or (ii) in equal
installments on the Employer's regular pay days. Installments will be paid over
the period of time equal to the number of weeks of the Participant's Base Pay to
be paid. A Participant shall select the method of payment by signing the
Election of Payment Statement in the form attached hereto and delivering such
signed Statement to the Company upon termination of employment or service
pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof.

                                   ARTICLE IV
                   JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY OF THE COMPANY

                  The Company shall be liable, jointly and severally, with the
Bank for the payment of all amounts due under this Plan.

                                    ARTICLE V
                               SOURCE OF BENEFITS

                  5.1 GENERAL RULE. All amounts payable under this Plan shall
constitute an unfunded, unsecured promise by the Bank and the Company to make
such payments in the future, as and to the extent such benefits become payable.
Severance Benefits shall be paid from the general assets of the Bank and the
Company, and no person shall by virtue of this Plan have any interest in such
assets (other than as an unsecured creditor of the Bank and the Company).

                  5.2 TRUST FUNDING ON CHANGE IN CONTROL. In the event of a
Change in Control, the Bank shall establish the Trust if one is not then in
existence, and shall contribute to the Trust an amount sufficient to provide the
Trust with assets having an overall value equivalent to the cash value of the
aggregate Severance Benefits that could become payable pursuant to Section 3.2
under the Plan.

                                   ARTICLE VI
                              TRANSFER OF BENEFITS

                  6.1 Except as provided herein, a Participant may not commute,
sell, assign, transfer, encumber and pledge or otherwise convey the right to
receive any benefits under this Plan.

                  6.2 Upon the death of a Participant receiving Severance
Benefits, the beneficiary(ies) of the Participant shall be entitled to receive
the Severance Benefits to which the Participant is entitled under Section 3.2. A
Participant shall designate such beneficiary(ies) by completing and signing the
Designation of Beneficiaries Statement in the form attached hereto and
delivering such signed Statement to the Company upon termination of employment
or service pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof.

                                   ARTICLE VII
                           EMPLOYMENT OR OTHER RIGHTS

                  Neither the Plan nor any action taken by the Board in
connection with the Plan shall create any right, either express or implied, on
the part of any Participant to continue in the employment or service of the
Employer.

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                                 REORGANIZATION

                  The Bank and the Company agree that they will not merge or
consolidate with any other corporation or organization, or permit their business
activities to be taken over by any other organization, unless and until the
succeeding or continuing corporation or other organization shall expressly
assume the rights and obligations of the Bank and the Company herein set forth.
The Bank and the Company further agree that they will not cease their business
activities or terminate their existence, other than as heretofore set forth in
this Article VIII, without having made adequate provision for the fulfillment of
their obligations hereunder.

                                   ARTICLE IX
                            AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

                  The Board may amend or terminate the Plan at any time prior to
a Change in Control. On or after a Change in Control, the Board may amend or
terminate the Plan subject to receiving the written consent of each Participant
who is or may be adversely affected by such amendment or termination.

                                    ARTICLE X
                                 APPLICABLE LAW

                  Except to the extent preempted by Federal law, the laws of the
State of Maryland shall govern this Plan in all respects, whether as to its
validity, construction, capacity, performance or otherwise.

                                HEADINGS; GENDER

                  Headings and subheadings in this Plan are inserted for

feminine.

                                   ARTICLE XII
                           INTERPRETATION OF THE PLAN

                  The Board shall have sole and absolute discretion to
administer, construe, and interpret the Plan and the decisions of the Board
shall be conclusive and binding on all affected parties (unless such decisions
are arbitrary and capricious).

                                  ARTICLE XIII
                              EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT

                  In the event that any dispute arises on or after a Change in
Control between a Participant and the Bank or the Company as to the terms or
interpretation of this Plan, whether instituted by formal legal proceedings or


                                      -iv-
<PAGE>
otherwise, including any action that the Participant takes to enforce the terms
of this Plan or to defend against any action taken by the Bank or the Company,
the Participant shall be reimbursed for all costs and expenses, including
reasonable attorneys' fees, arising from such dispute, proceedings or actions,
provided that the Participant shall obtain a final judgement in favor of the
Participant in a court of competent jurisdiction or in binding arbitration under
the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Such reimbursement shall be
paid within ten (10) days of Participant's furnishing to the Bank and the
Company written evidence, which may be in the form, among other things, of a

                                   ARTICLE XIV
                                CLAIMS PROCEDURE

                  14.1 GENERAL RULE. This Section is based on final regulations
issued by the Department of Labor and published in the Federal Register on
November 21, 2000 and codified at 29 C.F.R. Section 2560.503-1. If any provision
of this Section conflicts with the requirements of those regulations, the
requirements of those regulations will prevail.

                  14.2 INITIAL CLAIMS.

                           (a) If a Participant or a Participant's spouse,
dependent or beneficiary (hereinafter referred to as a "CLAIMANT") is denied any
Severance Benefit under this Plan, the Claimant may file a claim with the
Employer. The Employer shall review the claim itself or appoint an individual or
an entity to review the claim.

                           (b) The Claimant shall be notified within 90 days
after the claim is filed whether the claim is allowed or denied, unless the
Claimant receives written notice from the Chief Financial Officer of the Company
or his/her appointee prior to the end of the 90 day period stating that special
circumstances require an extension of the time for decision, such extension not
to extend beyond the day which is 180 days after the day the claim is filed.

                           (c) For purposes of the time periods specified in
this Section, the period of time during which a benefit determination is
required to be made begins at the time a claim is filed in accordance with the
Plan procedures without regard to whether all the information necessary to make
a decision accompanies the claim. If a period of time is extended due to a
Claimant's failure to submit all information necessary, the period for making
the determination shall be tolled from the date the notification is sent to the
Claimant until the date the Claimant responds.

                  14.3 DENIAL OF CLAIM. If the Employer denies a claim, it must
provide to the Claimant, in writing or by electronic communication:

                           (a) The specific reasons for the denial;

                           (b) A reference to the Plan provision or insurance
contract provision upon which the denial is based;

                           (c) A description of any additional information or
material that the Claimant must provide in order to perfect the claim;

                           (d) An explanation of why such additional material or
information is necessary;

                           (e) Notice that the Claimant has a right to request a
review of the claim denial and information on the steps to be taken if the
Claimant wishes to request a review of the claim denial; and

                           (f) A statement of the participant's right to bring a
civil action under ERISA Section 502(a) following a denial on review of the
initial denial.

                  14.4 REVIEW PROCEDURES.

                           (a) A request for review of a denied claim must be
made in writing to the Employer within 60 days after receiving notice of denial.
The decision upon review will be made within 60 days after the Employer's
receipt of a request for review, unless special circumstances require an
extension of time for processing, in which case a decision will be rendered not
later than 120 days after receipt of a request for review. A notice of such an
extension must be provided to the Claimant within the initial 60 day period and
must explain the special circumstances and provide an expected date of decision.

                           (b) The reviewer shall afford the Claimant an
opportunity to review and receive, without charge, all relevant documents,
information and records and to submit issues and comments in writing to the
Employer. The reviewer shall take into account all comments, documents, records
and other information submitted by the Claimant relating to the claim regardless
of whether the information was submitted or considered in the initial benefit
determination.

                           (c) Upon completion of its review of an adverse
initial claim determination, the Employer will give the Claimant, in writing or
by electronic notification, a notice containing:

                                    (i) its decision;

                                    (ii) the specific reasons for the decision;

                                    (iii) the relevant Plan provisions or
insurance contract provisions on which its decision is based;

                                    (iv) a statement that the Claimant is
entitled to receive, upon request and without charge, reasonable access to, and
copies of, all documents, records and other information in the Plan's files
which is relevant to the Claimant's claim for benefits;

                                    (v) a statement describing the Claimant's
right to bring an action for judicial review under ERISA Section 502(a); and

                                    (vi) if an internal rule, guideline,
protocol or other similar criterion was relied upon in making the adverse
determination on review, a statement that a copy of the rule, guideline,
protocol or other similar criterion will be provided without charge to the
Claimant upon request.

                  14.5 FAILURE OF PLAN TO FOLLOW PROCEDURES. If the Plan fails
to follow the claims procedures required by this Article, a Claimant shall be
deemed to have exhausted the administrative remedies available under the Plan
and shall be entitled to pursue any available remedy under ERISA section 502(a)
on the basis that the Plan has failed to provide a reasonable claims procedure
that would yield a decision on the merits of the claim.

                                   ARTICLE XV
                                  SEVERABILITY

                  The provisions of this Plan shall be deemed severable and the
invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or
enforceability of the other provisions hereof.

* The aggregate present value of Severance Benefits (including Severance
Payments and Medical Benefits) under the Plan at the time of termination of
employment or service (plus any payments under any other plan of the Company or
its Affiliates which are contingent on a change of control), determined in
accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 280G, may not exceed 2.99 times
the Participant's average annual taxable compensation from the Company or its
Affiliates which is included in the Participant's gross income for the five
taxable years of the Company (or such portion of such five year period during
which the Participant performed personal services for the Company or its
Affiliates) ending before the date on which the Change in Control occurs (the
"2.99 MAXIMUM"). If no amount of Severance Payment is specified, then the
Severance Payment, together with any Medical Benefits, shall equal the 2.99
Maximum.
