Whereas, the Executive has contributed substantially to the success of the Bank and

Article 2

Lifetime Benefits




2.1 Normal Retirement. Unless Separation from Service occurs before Normal Retirement Age,
when the Executive attains Normal Retirement Age the Bank shall pay to the Executive the benefit
described in this section 2.1 instead of any other benefit under this Agreement. If the
Executive’s Separation from Service thereafter is a Termination with Cause or if this Agreement
terminates under Article 5, no further benefits shall be paid.




	 	2.1.1	 	Amount of benefit. The annual benefit under this section 2.1 is $12,500.
	 
	 	2.1.2	 	Payment of benefit. Beginning with the month immediately after the month in
which the Executive attains Normal Retirement Age, the Bank shall pay the annual
benefit to the Executive in equal monthly installments on the last day of each month.
The annual benefit shall be paid to the Executive for 15 years.





2.2 Early Termination. If Early Termination occurs before Normal Retirement Age but on or
after the date the Executive attains age 62, the Bank shall pay to the Executive the benefit
described in this section 2.2 instead of any other benefit under this Agreement. If Early
Termination occurs before the Executive attains age 62, no benefit shall be payable under this
Agreement. Additionally, no benefits shall be payable under this Agreement if the Executive’s
employment is terminated under circumstances described in Article 5 of this Agreement. Neither the
Bank nor the Executive shall be entitled to elect in the 24-month period after a Change in Control
between the benefit under this section 2.2 versus the benefit under section 2.4. If the
Executive’s Separation from Service within 24 months after a Change in Control is an involuntary
termination without Cause or a Voluntary Termination with Good Reason, no benefit shall be payable
under this section 2.2 and the Executive shall instead be entitled to the benefit under section 2.4
or, if the Executive first attained Normal Retirement Age, section 2.1.




	 	2.2.1	 	Amount of benefit. The annual benefit under this section 2.2 is calculated as
the amount that fully amortizes the Accrual Balance existing at the end of the month
immediately before the month in which Separation from Service occurs, amortizing
that Accrual Balance over 15 years and taking into account interest at the discount
rate or rates established by the Plan Administrator.




 


5









 





	 	2.2.2	 	Payment of benefit. The Bank shall pay the annual benefit to the Executive in
equal monthly installments on the last day of each month, except that the first six
monthly installments after the Executive’s Separation from Service shall not be paid to
the Executive until the seventh month after the month in which Separation from Service
occurs. In the seventh month after the month in which Separation from Service occurs
the Executive shall be entitled to the first six monthly installments and the regular
monthly installment for the seventh month. The Executive shall be entitled to a total
of 180 monthly installments, including the first six installments that are paid in the
seventh month.





2.3 Disability. For Separation from Service because of Disability before Normal Retirement
Age, the Bank shall pay to the Executive the benefit described in this section 2.3 instead of any
other benefit under this Agreement.




	 	2.3.1	 	Amount of benefit. The annual benefit under this section 2.3 is calculated as
the amount that fully amortizes the Accrual Balance existing at the end of the month
immediately before the month in which Separation from Service occurs, amortizing that
Accrual Balance over 15 years and taking into account interest at the discount rate or
rates established by the Plan Administrator.
	 
	 	2.3.2	 	Payment of Benefit. Beginning with the later of (x) the seventh month after
the month in which the Executive’s Separation from Service occurs, or (y) the month
immediately after the month in which the Executive attains Normal Retirement Age, the
Bank shall pay the annual benefit to the Executive in equal monthly installments on the
last day of each month. If the benefit is paid under clause (x) in the seventh month
after Separation from Service, the first six monthly installments after Separation from
Service shall not be paid to the Executive until the seventh month after the month in
which Separation from Service occurs. In the seventh month the Executive shall be
entitled to the first six monthly installments and the regular monthly installment for
the seventh month. The Executive shall be entitled to a total of 180 monthly
installments, including the first six installments that are paid in the seventh month.

2.4 Change in Control. If the Executive’s Separation from Service is an involuntary
termination without Cause or a Voluntary Termination with Good Reason, in either case within 24
months after a Change in Control, the Bank shall pay to the Executive the benefit described in this
section 2.4 instead of any other benefit under this Agreement. However, no benefits shall be
payable under this Agreement if the Executive’s employment is terminated under circumstances
described in Article 5 of this Agreement. Neither the Bank nor the Executive shall be entitled to
elect in the 24-month period after a Change in Control between the benefit under this section 2.4
versus the Early Termination benefit under section 2.2. If the Executive’s Separation from Service
within 24 months after a Change in Control is an involuntary termination without Cause or a
Voluntary Termination with Good Reason, no benefit shall be payable under section 2.2 and the
Executive shall instead be entitled to the benefit under this section 2.4. But if the Executive
shall have attained Normal Retirement Age when Separation from Service within 24 months after a
Change in Control occurs, whether Separation from Service is voluntary or involuntary for any
reason other than Termination with Cause, the Executive shall be entitled solely to the benefit
provided by section 2.1, not this section 2.4.




	 	2.4.1	 	Amount of benefit. The benefit under this section 2.4 is the Normal
Retirement Age Accrual Balance required by section 2.1, discounting the Normal
Retirement Age Accrual Balance to present value using a discount rate selected by the
Plan Administrator, but the discount rate selected by the Plan Administrator shall not
exceed the discount rate employed at the time of the Change in Control for purposes of
calculating the Accrual Balance.
	 
	 	2.4.2	 	Payment of benefit. The Bank shall pay the benefit under this section 2.4 to
the Executive in a single lump sum on the first day of the seventh month after the
month in which Separation from Service occurs.





2.5 Lump-Sum Payout of Remaining Normal Retirement Benefit, Early Termination Benefit, or
Disability Benefit When a Change in Control Occurs. If a Change in Control occurs while the
Executive is receiving the Normal Retirement Age benefit under section 2.1, the Bank shall pay the
remaining salary continuation benefits to the Executive in a single lump sum within three days
after the Change in Control. If a Change in Control occurs after Separation from Service but while
the Executive is receiving or is entitled to receive the Early Termination benefit under section
2.2 or the Disability benefit under section 2.3, the Bank shall pay the remaining salary
continuation benefits to the Executive in a single lump sum within three days after the later of
(x) the Change in Control or (y) the first day of the seventh month after the month in which the
Executive’s Separation from Service occurs. The lump-sum payment due to the Executive as a result
of a Change in Control shall be an amount equal to the Accrual Balance amount corresponding to the
particular benefit when the Change in Control occurs.



2.6 Annual Benefit Statement. Within 120 days after the end of each Plan Year the Plan
Administrator shall provide or cause to be provided to the Executive an annual benefit statement
showing benefits payable or potentially payable to the Executive under this Agreement. Each annual
benefit statement shall supersede the previous year’s annual benefit statement. If there is a
contradiction between this Agreement and the annual benefit statement concerning the amount of a
particular benefit payable or potentially payable to the Executive under sections 2.2, 2.3, or 2.4
hereof, the amount of the benefit determined under this Agreement shall control.

2.7 Savings Clause Relating to Compliance with Code Section 409A. Despite any contrary
provision of this Agreement, if when the Executive’s employment terminates the Executive is a
specified employee, as defined in Code section 409A, and if any payments under Article 2 of this
Agreement will result in additional tax or interest to the Executive because of section 409A, the
Executive shall not be entitled to the payments under Article 2 until the earliest of (x) the date
that is at least six months after termination of the Executive’s employment for reasons other than
the Executive’s death, (y) the date of the Executive’s death, or (z) any earlier date that does not
result in additional tax or interest to the Executive under section 409A. If any provision of this
Agreement would subject the Executive to additional tax or interest under section 409A, the Bank
shall reform the provision. However, the Bank shall maintain to the maximum extent practicable the
original intent of the applicable provision without subjecting the Executive to additional tax or
interest, and the Bank shall not be required to incur any additional compensation expense as a
result of the reformed provision.



2.8 One Benefit Only. Despite anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Executive and
Beneficiary are entitled to one benefit only under this Agreement, which shall be determined by the
first event to occur that is dealt with by this Agreement. Except as provided in section 2.5 or
Article 3, subsequent occurrence of events dealt with by this Agreement shall not entitle the
Executive or Beneficiary to other or additional benefits under this Agreement.



Article 3

Death Benefits




3.1 Death in Active Service Before Normal Retirement Age. If the Executive dies both before
Normal Retirement Age and before Separation from Service, instead of any other benefit payable
under this Agreement the Executive’s Beneficiary shall be entitled at the Executive’s death solely
to the benefit, if any, payable under the Split Dollar Agreement and Endorsement, as amended,
attached to this Agreement as Addendum A.



3.2 Death During Benefit Period. If the Executive dies after benefit payments under Article 2
commence but before receiving all such payments, the Bank shall pay the remaining benefits to the
Executive’s Beneficiary at the same time and in the same amounts they would have been paid to the
Executive had the Executive survived. In that case, no death benefit shall be payable under the
Split Dollar Agreement and Endorsement, as amended. If the Executive is entitled to benefit
payments under Article 2 but dies before payments commence, the benefits shall be payable to the
Executive’s Beneficiary but payments shall commence on the last day of the month after the month in
which the Executive’s death occurs, and no death benefit shall be payable under the Split Dollar
Agreement and Endorsement, as amended.



3.3 Lump-Sum Payout of Remaining Normal Retirement Benefit, Early Termination Benefit, or
Disability Benefit When a Change in Control Occurs. If a Change in Control occurs while the
Beneficiary is receiving under section 3.2 the section 2.1 Normal Retirement Age benefit after the
Executive’s death or if a Change in Control occurs after the Executive’s Separation from Service
but while the Beneficiary is receiving or is entitled to
receive because of section 3.2 the section 2.2 Early Termination benefit or the section 2.3
Disability benefit after the Executive’s death, the Bank shall pay the remaining benefits to the
Beneficiary in a single lump sum within three days after the Change in Control. The lump-sum
payment due to the Beneficiary as a result of a Change in Control shall be an amount equal to the
Accrual Balance amount corresponding to the particular benefit when the Change in Control occurs.

Article 4

Beneficiaries




4.1 Beneficiary Designations. The Executive shall have the right to designate at any time a
Beneficiary to receive any benefits payable under this Agreement after the Executive’s death. The
Beneficiary designated under this Agreement may be the same as or different from the beneficiary
designation under any other benefit plan of the Bank in which the Executive participates.



4.2 Beneficiary Designation: Change. The Executive shall designate a Beneficiary by
completing and signing the Beneficiary Designation Form and delivering it to the Plan Administrator
or its designated agent. The Executive’s Beneficiary designation shall be deemed automatically
revoked if the Beneficiary predeceases the Executive or if the Executive names a spouse as
Beneficiary and the marriage is subsequently dissolved. The Executive shall have the right to
change a Beneficiary by completing, signing, and otherwise complying with the terms of the
Beneficiary Designation Form and the Plan Administrator’s rules and procedures, as in effect from
time to time. Upon the acceptance by the Plan Administrator of a new Beneficiary Designation Form,
all Beneficiary designations previously filed shall be cancelled. The Plan Administrator shall be
entitled to rely on the last Beneficiary Designation Form filed by the Executive and accepted by
the Plan Administrator before the Executive’s death.



4.3 Acknowledgment. No designation or change in designation of a Beneficiary shall be
effective until received, accepted, and acknowledged in writing by the Plan Administrator or its
designated agent.



4.4 No Beneficiary Designation. If the Executive dies without a valid beneficiary designation
or if all designated Beneficiaries predecease the Executive, the Executive’s spouse shall be the
designated Beneficiary. If the Executive has no surviving spouse the benefits shall be made to the
personal representative of the Executive’s estate.



4.5 Facility of Payment. If a benefit is payable to a minor, to a person declared
incapacitated, or to a person incapable of handling the disposition of his or her property, the
Bank may pay the benefit to the guardian, legal representative, or person having the care or
custody of the minor, incapacitated person, or incapable person. The Bank may require proof of
incapacity, minority, or guardianship as it may deem appropriate before distribution of the
benefit. Distribution shall completely discharge the Bank from all liability for the benefit.

7.5 Bank Information. To enable the Plan Administrator to perform its functions, the Bank
shall supply full and timely information to the Plan Administrator on all matters relating to the
date and circumstances of the retirement, Disability, death, or Separation from Service of the
Executive and such other pertinent information as the Plan Administrator may reasonably require.



Article 8

Miscellaneous




8.1 Amendments and Termination. Subject to section 8.14 of this Agreement, this Agreement may
be amended solely by a written agreement signed by the Bank and by the Executive, and except for
termination occurring under Article 5 this Agreement may be terminated solely by a written
agreement signed by the Bank and by the Executive.



8.2 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall bind the Executive and the Bank and their
beneficiaries, survivors, executors, successors, administrators, and transferees.



8.3 No Guarantee of Employment. This Agreement is not an employment policy or contract. It
does not give the Executive the right to remain an employee of the Bank nor does it interfere with
the Bank’s right to discharge the Executive. It also does not require the Executive to remain an
employee or interfere with the Executive’s right to terminate employment at any time.



8.4 Non-Transferability. Benefits under this Agreement may not be sold, transferred,
assigned, pledged, attached, or encumbered.



8.5 Successors; Binding Agreement. By an assumption agreement in form and substance
satisfactory to the Executive, the Bank shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by
purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or
assets of the Bank to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and
to the same extent that the Bank would be required to perform this Agreement had no succession
occurred.



8.6 Tax Withholding. The Bank shall withhold any taxes that are required to be withheld from
the benefits provided under this Agreement.

8.7 Applicable Law. The Agreement and all rights hereunder shall be governed by the laws of
the State of Ohio, except to the extent preempted by the laws of the United States of America.



8.8 Unfunded Arrangement. The Executive and beneficiary are general unsecured creditors of
the Bank for the payment of benefits under this Agreement. The benefits represent the mere promise
by the Bank to pay benefits. The rights to benefits are not subject to anticipation, alienation,
sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment, or garnishment by creditors. Any
insurance on the Executive’s life is a general asset of the Bank to which the Executive and
beneficiary have no preferred or secured claim.



8.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Split Dollar Agreement and Endorsement attached
as Addendum A, as amended, constitute the entire agreement between the Bank and the Executive
concerning the subject matter. No rights are granted to the Executive under this Agreement other
than those specifically set forth. This Agreement amends and restates in its entirety the
September 9, 2002 Amended Salary Continuation Agreement.



8.10 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, such invalidity shall
not affect any other provision of this Agreement not held invalid, and to the full extent
consistent with law each such other provision shall continue in full force and effect. If any
provision of this Agreement is held invalid in part, such invalidity shall not affect the remainder
of such provision not held invalid, and to the full extent consistent with law the remainder of
such provision, together with all other provisions of this Agreement, shall continue in full force
and effect.



8.11 Headings. Headings are included solely for convenience of reference and shall not affect
the meaning or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement.



8.12 Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications hereunder shall be in
writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if delivered by hand or mailed, certified or
registered mail, return receipt requested, with postage prepaid, to the following addresses or to
such other address as either party may designate by like notice. If to the Bank, notice shall be
given to the board of directors, The Cortland Savings and Banking Company, 194 W. Main Street, P.O.
Box 98, Cortland, Ohio 44410-1466, or to such other or additional person or persons as the Bank
shall have designated to the Executive in writing. If to the Executive, notice shall be given to
the Executive at the Executive’s address appearing on the Bank’s records, or to such other or
additional person or persons as the Executive shall have designated to the Bank in writing.

8.13 Payment of Legal Fees. The Bank is aware that after a Change in Control management of
the Bank could cause or attempt to cause the Bank to refuse to comply with its obligations under
this Agreement, or could institute or cause or attempt to cause the Bank to institute litigation
seeking to have this Agreement declared unenforceable, or could take or attempt to take other
action to deny the Executive the benefits intended under this Agreement. In
these circumstances the purpose of this Agreement would be frustrated. The Bank desires that the
Executive not be required to incur the expenses associated with the enforcement of rights under
this Agreement, whether by litigation or other legal action, because the cost and expense thereof
would substantially detract from the benefits intended to be granted to the Executive hereunder.
The Bank desires that the Executive not be forced to negotiate settlement of rights under this
Agreement under threat of incurring expenses. Accordingly, if after a Change in Control it appears
to Executive that (x) the Bank has failed to comply with any of its obligations under this
Agreement, or (y) the Bank or any other person has taken any action to declare this Agreement void
or unenforceable, or instituted any litigation or other legal action designed to deny, diminish, or
recover from the Executive the benefits intended to be provided to the Executive hereunder, the
Bank irrevocably authorizes the Executive from time to time to retain counsel of the Executive’s
choice, at the Bank’s expense as provided in this section 8.13, to represent the Executive in the
initiation or defense of any litigation or other legal action, whether by or against the Bank or
any director, officer, stockholder or other person affiliated with the Bank, in any jurisdiction.
Despite any existing or previous attorney-client relationship between the Bank and any counsel
chosen by the Executive under this section 8.13, the Bank irrevocably consents to the Executive
entering into an attorney-client relationship with that counsel, and the Bank and the Executive
agree that a confidential relationship shall exist between the Executive and that counsel. The
fees and expenses of counsel selected from time to time by Executive as provided in this section
shall be paid or reimbursed to Executive by the Bank on a regular, periodic basis upon presentation
by the Executive of a statement or statements prepared by counsel in accordance with counsel’s
customary practices, up to a maximum aggregate amount of $500,000, whether suit be brought or not
and regardless of whether incurred in trial, bankruptcy, or appellate proceedings. The Bank’s
obligation to pay the Executive’s legal fees provided by this section 8.13 operates separately from
and in addition to any legal fee reimbursement obligation the Bank or the Bank’s parent Cortland
Bancorp may have with the Executive under a severance or employment agreement by and among the
Executive, the Bank, and Cortland Bancorp. Despite any contrary provision within this Agreement
however, the Bank shall not be required to pay or reimburse the Executive’s legal expenses if doing
so would violate section 18(k) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act [12 U.S.C. 1828(k)] and Rule
359.3 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation [12 CFR 359.3].



8.14 Termination or Modification of Agreement Because of Changes in Law, Rules or Regulations.
The Bank is entering into this Agreement on the assumption that certain existing tax laws, rules,
and regulations will continue in effect in their current form. If that assumption materially
changes and the change has a material detrimental effect on this Agreement, then the Bank reserves
the right to terminate or modify this Agreement accordingly, subject to the written consent of the
Executive, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. This section 8.14 shall become null and void
effective immediately upon a Change in Control.
