Severance Benefits shall be subject to and conditioned upon the Executive complying with Sections 4 and 5 of this Agreement. 
 2.4 Subject
to the preceding provisions of this Section 2, the Severance Benefits shall be paid or provided (or commence to be paid or provided) within five [5] business days after the Executive has satisfied the Irrevocable Release requirement set forth
in Section 2.3; provided, however, that if the 45-day period following the date of the Triggering Event (or in the case of a Triggering Event described in Section 1.13(a)(i), the date of the Change in Control) begins in

described in Section 1.13(a)(i), the Change in Control) occurs or (B) the date the Executive satisfies the Irrevocable Release requirement described in Section 2.3. 

2.5 Any payments provided for hereunder shall be paid net of any applicable withholding required under federal, state or local law and any
additional withholding to which the Executive has agreed. 
 2.6 Benefits described under Section 2.1 through 2.2 of this Agreement
will not be included as additional compensation or service for the purpose of determining qualified or nonqualified retirement benefits under any program sponsored by the Company. 

 

	 	3.	Benefits Following a Change in Control. 

 3.1 Following a Change in Control, the Company
or its successor shall provide to the Executive (or cause to be provided to the Executive) (a) benefits substantially similar to those enjoyed by the Executive under any of the Company’s and its Affiliates’ pension, life insurance,
medical, health and accident, disability or other welfare plans (but not including annual bonus and short-term and long-term incentive or equity-based compensation plans in which the Executive was participating at the time of the Change in Control)
unless the nature of the change in benefit levels is consistent with changes to benefits levels provided to employees at the same or equivalent level or title as the Executive and (b) annual bonus and short-term and long-term incentive
compensation opportunities that are not less favorable to the Executive than those provided to the Executive immediately prior to the Change in Control. 

3.2 Following a Change in Control, the Company or its successors shall provide to the Executive (or cause to be provided to the Executive) the
number of paid vacation days to which the Executive is entitled to on the basis of years of service with the Company, the Bank, and their Affiliates in accordance with the applicable vacation policy of the Company, the Bank, or applicable Affiliates
in effect at the time of a Change in Control. 

  
 7 









	 	4.	Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation. 

 4.1 Upon Executive’s first receipt of
Severance Benefits, Executive agrees that for the twelve (12) month period thereafter, the Executive will not, without the written consent of the Company, directly or indirectly: 

(a) own any interest in, manage, operate, control, be employed by, render consulting or advisory services to, or participate in or be
connected with the management or control of any business that is then engaged, or proposing to engage, in the operation of a Competing Business in the Territory. For purposes of this Agreement, “Competing Business” means any entity
or business engaged in the banking or financial services business (including commercial banks, savings banks, credit unions, mortgage companies, savings and loan associations, trust companies, investment advisory or sales businesses, and any similar
financial institutions), or any other entity or business engaged in a business in which the Company, the Bank, or any of their Affiliates are engaged, or are contemplating becoming engaged, at the time of termination of the Executive’s
employment; and “Territory” means the counties within Pennsylvania in which the Company, the Bank, or any of their Affiliates conducts operations as of the date of this Agreement and any other counties in Pennsylvania or any other
state in which, during the period of the Executive’s employment, the Company, the Bank, or any of their Affiliates conduct operations; provided, however, that the Executive may, without violating this Agreement, own as a passive
investment not in excess of one percent (1%) of the outstanding capital stock or other equity interests of a corporation or other entity whose shares or other equity interests are publicly traded on an established securities market; 

(b) solicit or in any way contact any Customer(s) of the Company, Bank or any of their Affiliates for the purposes of directly or indirectly
furnishing any financial, wealth management, insurance, or other banking services that the Company, Bank or Affiliates provide, or is permitted by law to provide, on the date the Executive’s employment is terminated. The term
“Customer(s)”, as used herein, shall mean any individual, corporation, partnership, business or other entity, whether for-profit or not-for-profit (i) whose existence and business is known to Executive as a result of Executive’s
access to customer lists, customer account information, or other business related information; or (ii) that is a business entity or individual with whom Executive has contracted on behalf of the Company or Bank., performed services for, or
negotiated with, during the two (2) year period preceding the termination of Executive’s employment, and 
 (c) solicit, or
assist any other person or entity in soliciting, any employee of the Company, Bank, or any of their Affiliates to perform services for any entity (other than the Company, the Bank, or any of their Affiliates), or encourage any employee of the
Company, the Bank, or any of their Affiliates to leave their employment with the Company. 

  
 8 








 4.2 In the event the Executive breaches any of the provisions contained in Section 4.1 and
the Company seeks compliance with such provisions by judicial proceedings, the time period during which the Executive is restricted by such provisions shall be extended by the time during which the Executive has actually competed with the Company,
the Bank or any of their Affiliates or been in violation of any such provision and any period of litigation required to enforce the Executive’s obligations under this Agreement. 

4.3 The Executive and the Company intend that Section 4 of this Agreement be enforced as written. However, if one or more of the
provisions contained in Section 4 shall for any reason be held to be unenforceable because of the duration or scope of such provision or the area covered thereby, the Executive and the Company agree that the court making such determination
shall have the full power to reform, by “blue penciling” or any other means, the duration, scope and/or area of such provision and in its reformed form such provision shall then be enforceable and shall be binding on the parties. 

5. Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure. The Executive hereby agrees that, during the period of the Executive’s employment by the
Company, the Bank, or any of their Affiliates and thereafter, the Executive agrees to maintain the confidentiality of their Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” shall include, but is not necessarily limited to, any
information concerning accounts, sales and sales volume; any information related to Customers or prospective Customers, prospect lists, business strategies, business manuals, software products, patented products, copyrighted information, operating
methods, all information (in whatever form) that is not generally known to the public, and any other trade secret or proprietary information belonging to or relating to the Company’s, the Bank’s or their Affiliate’s affairs, that is
not public information. 
 6. Injunctive Relief. It is impossible to measure in money the damages that will accrue to the Company,
the Bank, or any of their Affiliates in the event that the Executive breaches any of the restrictive covenants set forth in Sections 4 and 5 above (the “Restrictive Covenants”). In the event that the Executive breaches any of the
Restrictive Covenants, the Company, Bank or Affiliated organization shall be entitled to an injunction restraining the Executive from violating such Restrictive Covenant without posting a bond in excess of one thousand dollars ($1,000.00). If the
Company, Bank or Affiliated organization institutes any action or proceeding to enforce any such Restrictive Covenant, the 

  
 9 








 
Executive hereby waives the claim or defense that the Company, the Bank, or any of their Affiliates has an adequate remedy at law and agrees not to assert in any such action or proceeding the
claim or defense that the Company, the Bank, or any of their Affiliates has an adequate remedy at law. In the event the Company, Bank or Affiliated organization obtains any such injunction, order, decree or other relief, in law or in equity, the
Executive shall be responsible for reimbursement of all costs associated with obtaining the relief, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and costs of suit. The Executive further covenants and agrees that any order of court or judgment
which enforces the Company’s, Bank’s or Affiliated organization’s rights under this Agreement may be transferred, without objection or opposition by the Executive, to any court of law or other appropriate law enforcement body located
in any State or Commonwealth in the U.S.A. where the Executive resides or works, and that said court or body shall give full force and effect to said order and or judgment. 

7. Choice of law, Jurisdiction and Venue. The parties agree that this Agreement shall be deemed to have been made and entered into in
Indiana County, Pennsylvania, and that the Law of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania shall govern this Agreement except where Federal law may be applicable, without regard to conflict of laws principles. Jurisdiction and venue is exclusively limited
in any proceeding by the Company or the Executive to enforce their rights hereunder to the Court of Common Pleas located in Indiana County, Pennsylvania or the United States Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania. The Executive hereby waives
any objections to the jurisdiction and venue of the aforementioned Courts, including any objection to personal jurisdiction, venue, and/or forum non-conveniens, in any proceeding by the Company to enforce its rights hereunder. The Executive
agrees not to object to any petition filed by the Company to remove an action filed in a different venue than those set forth herein. To the extent that the Company obtains a judgment against the Executive, the Executive agrees that that judgment
may be transmitted to any jurisdiction where Executive lives or resides without the Executive’s objection. 
  

	 	8.	Miscellaneous. 

 8.1 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon any
successor or successors of the Company due to a Change in Control or otherwise. 
 8.2 Partial Invalidity. The invalidity or
unenforceability of any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect. 

  
 10 








 8.3 No Effect on Other Rights. The payment or obligation to pay any monies, or granting of
any rights or privileges to the Executive as provided in this Agreement shall not be in lieu or derogation of the rights and privileges that the Executive now has under any benefit plan or program presently outstanding. 

8.4 No Right to Continued Employment. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as giving the Executive the right to be retained in
the employ of the Company or to interfere with the right of the Company to discharge the Executive at any time and for any lawful reason, subject in all cases to the terms of this Agreement. 

8.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes an amendment and restatement of the Prior Agreement and contains the entire agreement
between the parties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereunder and supersedes all prior arrangements or understandings with respect thereto, written or oral, including the Prior Agreement. No agreements or representations, oral or
otherwise, expressed or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof have been made by either party which are not set forth expressly in this Agreement. 

8.6 Modifications; Waivers. Subject to Section 10, no provisions of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged unless
such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in writing signed by the Executive and the Company, except that the terms of this Agreement may be terminated or amended by the Company and the Executive at any time prior the occurrence of a
Change in Control. No waiver by either party at any time of any breach by the other party of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar
provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time. 
 8.7 No Mitigation. The Company agrees that if a
Triggering Event occurs, the Executive is not required to seek other employment or to attempt in any way to reduce any amounts payable to the Executive by the Company pursuant to this Agreement. Moreover, the amount of any payment or benefit
provided for under this Agreement shall not be reduced by any compensation earned by the Executive as the result of employment by another employer, by retirement benefits, by offset against any amount claimed to be owed by the Executive to the
Company, or otherwise. 
 8.8 Assignment of Rights or Interest. Except as otherwise provided herein or by law, no right or interest
of the Executive under this Agreement shall be assignable or transferable, in whole or in part, either directly or by operation of

law or otherwise, including without limitation by execution, levy, garnishment, attachment, pledge or in any manner; no attempted assignment or transfer thereof shall be effective; and no right
or interest of the Executive under this Agreement shall be liable for, or subject to, any obligation or liability of the Executive. The Company shall have the right to assign this Agreement in connection with a Change In Control, and the Executive
agrees to be obligated by this Agreement to any successor, assign or surviving entity. Any assignee or successor to the Company is an intended third party beneficiary of this Agreement. 

8.9 Payment of Benefits Upon Death of the Executive. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the
Executive’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. If the Executive shall die while any amount would still be payable to the Executive hereunder (other than amounts
which by their terms, terminate upon the death of the Executive) if the Executive had continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to the executors, personal
representatives or administrators of the Executive’s estate. 
 8.10 Notices. For the purposes of this Agreement, notices,

 12 








 8.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. 
 9. Golden Parachute
Limit. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that any portion of the Severance Benefits or any other payment or benefit received or to be received by the Executive (whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or
any other plan, arrangement or agreement) (collectively, the “Total Benefits”) would be subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code” (the
“Excise Tax”), the Total Benefits shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that no portion of the Total Benefits is subject to the Excise Tax. All amounts payable in consideration of the Executive’s covenants pursuant to
Section 4, 5, and 6, as determined by a valuation firm selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to the Executive, shall, for purposes of the determinations made under this Section 9, be excluded from the amounts considered
“parachute payments” to the maximum extent permitted under Section 280G of the Code. All determinations required to be made under this Section 9 shall be made by tax counsel selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to
the Executive (“Tax Counsel”), which determinations shall be conclusive and binding on the Executive and the Company absent manifest error. All fees and expenses of Tax Counsel shall be borne solely by the Company. In the event the
Total Benefits must be reduced in order to comply with this Section 9, the cash payment provided for by Section 2.1 shall first be reduced (if necessary, to zero), then payment of the COBRA Amounts and any Life Insurance Lump-Sum Amount
shall be reduced proportionately, then the Life Insurance Benefit provided in Sections 2.3 shall next be reduced, and then any payments and benefits not provided under this Agreement shall be reduced in that order so that no portion of the Total
Benefits is subject to the Excise Tax. All such reductions shall be made in a manner intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code. 
  

	 	10.	Term of Agreement. 

 10.1 The term of this agreement shall begin on January 1, 2015,
and end at 11:59 p.m. on December 31, 2015, and shall automatically be extended for an additional year each December 31 after January 1, 2015, unless either party delivers written notice of non-renewal to the other party within 90
days prior to the renewal date; provided, however, that if a Change in Control has occurred during the original or extended term, the term of the Agreement shall end no earlier than 36 calendar months after the end of the calendar month in which the
Change in Control occurs. 

  
 13 









	 	11.	Compliance with Code Section 409A. 

 This Agreement is intended to comply with the
requirements of Section 409A of the Code (including the exceptions thereto), to the extent applicable, and the Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with such requirements. If any provision contained in the Agreement conflicts with the
requirements of Section 409A of the Code (or the exemptions intended to apply under the Agreement), the Agreement shall be deemed to be reformed to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code (or the applicable exemptions
thereto). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, for purposes of determining the Executive’s entitlement to the Severance Benefits, the Executive’s employment shall not be deemed to have terminated unless and until the Executive
incurs a “separation from service” as defined in Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if a payment or benefit under this Agreement is due to a “separation from service” for purposes of
the rules under Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-3(i)(2) (payments to specified employees upon a separation from service) and the Executive is determined to be a “specified employee” (as determined under Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(i)), such
payment shall, to the extent necessary to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, be made on the later of (x) the date specified by the foregoing provisions of this Agreement or (y) the date that is six
(6) months after the date of the Executive’s separation from service (or, if earlier, the date of the Executive’s death). Any installment payments that are delayed pursuant to this Section 11 shall be accumulated and paid in a
lump-sum on the first day of the seventh month following the Date of Termination (or, if earlier, upon the Executive’s death) and the remaining installment payments shall begin on such date in accordance with the schedule provided in this
Agreement. The Severance Benefits are intended not to constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code to the extent such Severance Benefits are covered by (i) the “short-term deferral exception” set forth in
Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(b)(4), (ii) the “two times severance exception” set forth in Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii), or (iii) the “limited payments exception” set forth in Treas. Reg. §
1.409A-1(b)(9)(v)(D). The short-term deferral exception, the two times severance exception and the limited payments exception shall be applied to the Severance Benefits in order of payment in such manner as results in the maximum exclusion of such
Severance Payments from treatment as deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code. Each installment of the Severance Benefits shall be deemed to be a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. In no event whatsoever
shall the Company or any of its Affiliates be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalties that may be imposed on the Executive under Section 409A of the Code or any damages for failing to comply with Section 409A of the Code.
