SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN







This Amended and Restated Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “Plan”), is made and entered into as of May 18, 2016, by and between Lake Shore Savings Bank, a federally-chartered savings bank (the “Bank”), and Daniel P. Reininga, President and Chief Executive Officer of Lake Shore Bancorp, Inc., a federally-chartered corporation and a mid-tier stock holding company (the “Company”) and the Bank (the “Executive”).  The Plan was originally entered into as of June 30, 2012 and initially amended and restated as of November 1, 2015.







The purpose of the Plan is to provide additional retirement benefits to the Executive, who has contributed significantly to the success and growth of the Company and the Bank, and whose services are vital to the Company and Bank’s continued growth and success.

MISCELLANEOUS

Severability and Interpretation of Provisions.  In the event that any of the provisions of this Plan or portion hereof are held to be inoperative or invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction, or in the event that any provision is found to violate Code Section 409A and would subject Executive to additional taxes and interest on the amounts deferred hereunder, or in the event that any legislation adopted by any governmental body having jurisdiction over the Bank would be retroactively applied to invalidate this Plan or any provision hereof or cause the benefits hereunder to be taxable, then: (1) insofar as is reasonable, effect will be given to the intent manifested in the provisions held invalid or inoperative, and (2) the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not be affected thereby.

For purposes of clarification of this Schedule A, the vested benefit will be determined only by using the applicable beginning of year or end of year vesting percentage.  For example, if a Termination of Employment occurs on June 30, 2024, the vested percentage will be 90% (and not 92.5% to reflect the six months worked in 2024).







Example:                      If a Termination of Employment occurs on June 30, 2022, for reasons other than death, disability, Cause or after a Change in Control, the annual Early Retirement Benefit will be $121,608.80 ($152,011 times 80%), which will be payable in monthly installments for 180 months.












*The Executive will be 100% vested upon the attainment of age sixty-seven (67).
