Item 1.01.                      Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

As previously disclosed, on February 25, 2014, Hampton Roads Bankshares, Inc. (the “Company”) announced the termination of the written agreement, dated June 9, 2010 (the “Written Agreement”), among the Company, the Company’s wholly owned banking subsidiary The Bank of Hampton Roads (“BHR”), the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond (“FRB”) and the Virginia Bureau of Financial Institutions (“BFI”). The termination of the Written Agreement was effective February 20, 2014.

On March 26, 2014 the Company and BHR entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (the “MOU”) with the FRB and the BFI. Under the MOU, the Company and BHR have agreed that they will receive the prior written approval of the FRB and the BFI before, (i) either the Company or BHR declares or pays dividends of any kind; (ii) the Company makes any payments on its trust preferred securities; (iii) the Company incurs or guarantees any debt; or (iv) the Company purchases or redeems any shares of its stock. In addition, the MOU institutes certain reporting requirements and addresses ongoing regulatory requirements.

The Company’s other wholly owned banking subsidiary, Shore Bank, is not a party to the MOU and is not subject to its restrictions or requirements.

The above description of the MOU is qualified in its entirety by reference to the MOU, a copy of which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
