Compensation Discussion and Analysis


Compensation Philosophy and Objectives





The compensation philosophy and objectives of Chicopee Bancorp, Inc. (“the Company”),  begin with the premise that the success of the Company depends, in large part, on the dedication and commitment of the people we place in key operating positions and on the compensation program we provide such persons to complement our business strategy and other corporate objectives.  The overall objective of our compensation program is to maximize shareholder value through the recruitment, retention and motivation of talented employees and officers (including Named Executive Officers, herein) of the Company. We recognize that the Company operates in a competitive environment for talent.  Therefore, our approach to compensation considers the full range of compensation elements that enable us to compare favorably with our peers as we seek to attract and retain key personnel. We assess our compensation programs annually from a market competitive perspective as well as  a risk perspective and seek to use compensation practices common  in the industry.





Our compensation program is based on the following four key goals:





|  |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      
|- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|• | Align with Stockholder Interest - As a public company, we use equity compensation as a key component of our compensation program to develop a culture of ownership among our key executives and to align their individual financial interests with the interests of our stockholders.




|  |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         
|- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|• | Drive Performance - We structure compensation in part on the attainment of company-wide objectives and individual performance objectives that contribute to our growth within a prudent risk tolerance.  It is our belief that near term

loan and deposit growth is critical to achieving future profitability.  Therefore, company-wide and individual objectives are weighted toward growth and credit quality.

|- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|• | Meet Employment Competitiveness - Our goal is to compensate our employees at competitive levels that position us as the employer of choice among our peers who provide similar financial services in the communities we serve.




|  |                                                                                                                                           
|- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|• | Reflect Our Business Philosophy - Our approach to compensation reflects our values and the way we do business in the communities we serve.

Designing our Compensation Program





Our compensation program is designed to reward the Named Executive Officers based on their experience, management responsibilities and performance levels.  The creation of long-term shareholder value is highly dependent on the development and effective execution of a Board-approved sound business strategy by our Named Executive Officers.  Other considerations influencing the design of our executive compensation program are:





|  |

Role of the Compensation Committee and Certain Executive Officers





The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors is composed of three independent members of the Board and operates under a written charter.  The Chicopee Bancorp, Inc. Compensation Committee Charter establishes a framework for the fulfillment of the Compensation Committee’s responsibilities.  Under the charter, the Compensation Committee is responsible for setting the compensation philosophy, overseeing the compensation and benefit programs and making recommendations to the full Board of Directors with respect to our compensation program related to the Named Executive Officers. The Compensation Committee reviews the charter at least annually to ensure that the scope of the charter is consistent with the Board of Directors’ expectation of the role of the Compensation Committee.





The Board relies on the Compensation Committee to develop our executive compensation program and to monitor the success of the program in achieving the objectives of our compensation philosophy.  The Compensation Committee is also responsible for the administration of our compensation programs and policies, including setting the overall level of base salary, incentives, benefits and contractual total compensation for our officers.  The Compensation Committee reviews the risks associated with our compensation policies and practices and regularly evaluates and approves the elements of total compensation payable to the Named Executive Officers.








6


---







The executive officers who serve as a resource to the Compensation Committee are the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Senior Vice President of Human Resources.  These executives attend the Compensation Committee meetings at the invitation of the Compensation Committee.  The President and Chief Executive Officer and the Senior Vice President of Human Resources make recommendations from time to time regarding the appropriate mix and level of compensation for their subordinates.  Those recommendations consider the objectives and elements of our compensation philosophy and the range of compensation programs authorized by the Compensation Committee. The two executives participate in Compensation Committee activities purely in an informational and advisory capacity and have no authority in the Compensation Committee’s decision-making process.  The President and Chief Executive Officer and the Senior Vice President of Human Resources do not attend the portion of the Compensation Committee meetings during which their own performance is evaluated or their compensation is being determined.





Role of Compensation Consultants





The Compensation Committee engages an independent compensation consulting firm to assist in the compensation governance process for the Named Executive Officers and other officers.  The consultant is retained by and reports to the Compensation Committee.  In developing compensation and incentive plans for the Named Executive Officers, the Compensation Committee utilized the services of Arthur Warren Associates.





In 2015, Arthur Warren Associates reviewed the elements of executive compensation to determine, among other tasks, whether any portion of executive compensation encouraged excessive risk taking.  The Compensation Committee met with the compensation consultant several times throughout the year to evaluate the trends within the industry and the consultant’s observations, analysis and recommendations.  Total fees paid during the year 2015 for services performed by Arthur Warren Associates were $26,474.





Peer Group Analysis.  A critical element of our compensation philosophy and a key driver of specific compensation decisions for our Compensation Committee and our management team is the comparative analysis of all of the Company’s employee compensation mix and levels relative to a peer group of publicly traded banks and mutual banks.  We firmly believe that the cornerstone of our compensation program is the maintenance of competitive pay elements relative to the companies with whom we compete for talent.  In 2015, our compensation peer group was selected with the assistance of our compensation consultant on the basis of several factors, including geographic location, asset size, operating characteristics and financial performance.  The Compensation Committee evaluates our compensation program relative to our peers to ensure that our program is consistent with best practices in our industry.   The peer group consists of 15 publicly traded banks within New England having assets ranging between $264.6 million and $ 1.5 billion. The banks included in the peer analysis are Bankwell Financial Group Inc.; Bar Harbor Bankshares; Belmont Savings Bank; Community Bancorp; Georgetown Bancorp; Hingham Institution for Savings; Lake Sunapee Bank Group; PSB Holdings Salisbury Bancorp, Inc.; SBT Bancorp, Inc.; SI Financial Group, Inc.; The First Bancorp, Inc.; Union Bankshares, Inc.; Wellesley Bancorp, Inc.; and Westfield Financial, Inc.  The Compensation Committee also evaluated published compensation survey data and other relevant information provided in the 2015 Pearl Meyer & Partners Northeast Bankers Survey.  Annually, we participate in a compensation survey with Pearl Meyer & Partners located in Wellesley, Massachusetts.  This survey includes 100 financial institutions with operations primarily in Massachusetts with over 14,700 incumbents.  Participants in the survey matched 243 positions (officer and non-officer).  All data was effective as of April 1, 2015, with bonus and short-term (annual) incentive plan pay-outs based on the 2014 calendar year that may have been paid in 2015.  The survey consisted of various  asset-size groupings and also provided current compensation trends and observations within the market for compensation policies and practices.  Compensation data for officer positions was reported by asset size as well as mutual vs. stock form of ownership and detailed short-term and long-term incentive data. The Company was able to compare compensation for its Named Executive Officers to those within our asset size range and geographic region.





When evaluating compensation for our officers, in addition to considering the relevance of the data provided in the publicly traded stock bank peer group analysis and the compensation surveys, the following is also considered:

Our compensation program for the Named Executives currently relies on four primary elements:  (i) base salary; (ii) discretionary cash-based, short-term incentive compensation for certain employees not including the Named Executive Officers; (iii) discretionary long-term performance incentives in the form of stock-based compensation and long-term incentive

compensation; and (iv) employee benefits to provide for appropriate and meaningful income replacement in the event of retirement, sickness, accident, death or disability.  We believe we can meet the objectives of our compensation philosophy by achieving a balance among these four elements that is competitive with our industry peers and creates appropriate incentives for our management team.





Base Compensation.  The base salaries of our Named Executive Officers are reviewed at least annually to assess our competitive position and make any necessary adjustments.  Our goal is to maintain salary levels for our Named Executive Officers at a level consistent with base salary received by those in comparable positions at our peers.  To further that goal, we obtain peer data from a variety of sources including an independent compensation consultant.  We also evaluate salary levels at the time of promotion or other change in responsibilities or as a result of specific commitments we made when a specific officer was hired.  Individual performance and retention risk are also considered as part of our annual assessment.  See “Executive Compensation - Summary Compensation Table” in this document for the salaries paid to our Named Executive Officers in 2015.





Annual Cash-Based, Short-Term Incentive Compensation.  The Company did not implement a cash-based, short-term incentive plan for the Named Executive Officers in 2015.  Consequently, the Named Executive Officers did not receive a short-term, cash bonus for 2015.





Long-Term Performance Incentive Compensation . Our long-term incentive compensation program is based on the delivery of non-equity incentive compensation and equity-based compensation in accordance with the following two plans:





Non-Equity Incentive Compensation. The Chicopee Bancorp, Inc. 2012 Phantom Stock Unit Award and Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) is intended to supplement selected key contributor compensation and to encourage participants to accomplish longer term performance objectives consistent with the Company’s business objectives.  The LTIP is an annual cash-based incentive plan by which certain bonuses are awarded based on obtaining EPS and other bank performance measures determined by the Board and paid to the participant at the end of three years.  Under the LTIP, our Named Executive Officers were granted phantom stock unit awards on January 1, 2016, as follows:  William J. Wagner was granted 3,838.64 units; Russell J. Omer was granted 2,253.54 units and Guida R. Sajdak was granted 1,634.15 units.





Equity-Based Compensation.  The Compensation Committee believes that equity-based compensation is an important element of our overall compensation philosophy that providing officers and directors with incentives linked to the performance of our common stock enables us to retain high level executives and ties the compensation of those executives to the creation of long-term value for our shareholders.  The Company sponsors the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan to achieve this goal.  The nature and size of the awards under our equity-based program are based on a number of factors including performance objectives, awards made to those holding comparable positions in our peer group, applicable regulatory restrictions and the tax consequences and accounting treatment of specific equity compensation techniques.  In 2015, our Named Executive Officers did not receive a grant of stock options or restricted awards under the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan .





Employee Benefit Compensation. The Compensation Committee believes that the employee benefit program should be competitive and consistent with our employee needs.  Moreover, our executives and employees live in the communities we serve and their welfare is important.  The Compensation Committee balances employee benefit compensation to meet income replacement needs in the event of death, sickness, retirement and disability.





Allocation Among Compensation Elements





The mix of base salary, short-term, cash-based incentives, long-term incentive compensation and benefits varies depending upon the role and responsibility of the individual officer in the organization.    Benefits round out the total compensation.  All compensation elements are allocated to achieve the Company’s total pay philosophy of balancing risk and reward.





Risk Management. The Compensation Committee believes that any risks arising from our compensation policies and practices for all of our employees, including our Named Executive Officers, are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company or Chicopee Savings Bank.  In addition, the Compensation Committee believes that the design and balance of the elements of our compensation program will encourage management to act in a manner that is focused on the long-term valuation of the Company and Chicopee Savings Bank.  The Compensation Committee concluded that weighting the pay-mix towards long-term equity incentive compensation discourages inappropriate short-term risk taking.





The Compensation Committee regularly reviews all our incentive-based plans to ensure that controls are in place so that our employees are not presented with opportunities to take unnecessary and excessive risks that could threaten the value of the Company and Chicopee Savings Bank.  With respect to the incentive compensation plans, the Compensation Committee reviews and approves the company-wide performance objectives that determine the bonus payments to be made thereunder.  The

performance objectives selected are customary performance metrics for financial institutions in our peer group. In addition, we  have a Clawback Policy to recover certain incentive payments paid to the Company’s Named Executive Officers in the event the Compensation Committee determines that fraud, material error, gross negligence or intentional misconduct by a Named Executive Officer contributed to the Company’s restatement of its financial statements.





Shareholder Say-on-Pay. At the Company’s 2015 annual meeting, our shareholders overwhelmingly supported our “say-on-pay” proposal with 90.3% of the votes cast voting to approve the executive compensation disclosed in last year’s Proxy Statement.  The Compensation Committee considers the shareholder advisory vote from the most recent annual meeting, along with commentary from proxy advisory firms that opined on the matters voted on at the meeting.





Potential Post-Termination or Change in Control Benefits





We recognize that an important consideration in our ability to attract and retain key personnel is our ability to minimize the impact on our management team of the possible disruption associated with our analysis and incorporation of strategic opportunities.  Accordingly, we believe that it is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders to provide our key personnel with reasonable financial arrangements in the event of termination of employment following a change in control or involuntary termination of employment for reasons other than cause.  Each of our Named Executive Officers has an employment agreement that provides for certain benefits in the event of voluntary or involuntary termination following a change in control. In addition, the employment agreements contain provisions that provide for certain severance benefits in the event we terminate an executive’s employment for reasons other than cause.





The Company entered into change in control agreements with three officers and maintains an employee severance compensation plan for all eligible employees who do not have a change in control agreement or employment agreement.  These change in control agreements and the employee severance compensation plan provides the covered employees with a severance benefit in the event their employment is terminated following a change in control.





Tax and Accounting Considerations





In consultation with our tax and accounting advisors, we evaluate the tax consequences to the Company and accounting treatment of each of our compensation programs at the time of adoption and on an annual basis to ensure that we understand the financial impact of the program.  Our analysis includes a detailed review of recently adopted and pending changes in tax and accounting requirements.  As part of our review, we consider modifications and/or alternatives to existing programs to take advantage of favorable changes in the tax or accounting environment or to avoid adverse consequences.





Retirement Benefits





We offer our employees two tax-qualified retirement plans, which include a 401(k) plan and an employee stock ownership plan (ESOP).





Our primary retirement vehicle is our 401(k) plan, which enables our employees to supplement their retirement savings with voluntary contributions of deferred compensation that we match up to a specified level.  We also provide an annual Safe Harbor contribution of 3% of pay.





In addition, we maintain an employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) that allows participants to accumulate a retirement benefit in Company stock funded by the employer.





Consistent with industry practice, we supplement our tax-qualified plans with nonqualified arrangements that provide benefits to certain officers who are affected by Internal Revenue Code limits applicable to tax-qualified plans.  We provide our President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer with supplemental executive retirement agreements, which provide the executives with an annual retirement benefit.  See “Executive Compensation - Nonqualified Deferred Compensation” in this document for a description of the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP).

Perquisites





We provide certain officers, including the President and Chief Executive Officer, the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer and the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, with limited perquisites similar to those provided to executives employed by our peers.  All perquisites have a business purpose and are intended to further the officers’ abilities to promote the business purposes of the Company in our markets and to reflect competitive practices for similarly situated officers employed by our peers.





Director Compensation





Our independent Directors are compensated through a combination of retainers and meeting fees.  Independent Directors also participate in our 2007 Equity Incentive Plan .  Our non-independent Director, who is also an employee of the Company, does not receive additional compensation for service on the Board.  The level and mix of director compensation is reviewed annually by the Compensation Committee to ensure consistency with the objectives of our overall compensation philosophy.  Survey data provided by Pearl Meyer & Partners, publicly traded stock bank peer group data and Arthur Warren Associates is used for the review process to ensure our Directors are compensated fairly and comparably with our peers. See “Director Compensation” in this document for the compensation paid to our Board of Directors in 2015.





Stock Compensation Grant and Award Practices





The Compensation Committee annually considers whether to make stock option grants and/or award other forms of equity under the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan .  Future grants or awards may be made based on specific circumstances such as a new hire, a contractual commitment or a change in position or responsibility.  Under the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan , as approved by the Company’s shareholders in 2007, the exercise price of a stock option is the closing market price on the date of a grant.  The grant date is the date the Compensation Committee approves the award in accordance with the Plan.





As a general matter, the Compensation Committee’s process is independent of any consideration of the timing of the release of material nonpublic information, including the determination of grant dates or stock option exercise prices.  The Compensation Committee’s  actions are reported to the Board of Directors for their support.  Similarly, we have never timed the release of material nonpublic information with the purpose or intent of affecting the value of executive compensation.





Stock Ownership Requirements





While we have not adopted formal stock ownership requirements for our executive officers and Board  members, Massachusetts law requires that each director own Company common stock having a fair market value of not less than $1,000.  However, as a practical matter, our Named Executive Officers and Directors hold significant interests in our stock, whether accumulated through individual purchases or participation in stock compensation programs.  See the “Stock Ownership” section in this document.





Compensation for the Named Executive Officers





The Compensation Committee reviews and approves base salaries for the Named Executive Officers in a manner consistent with the base salary guidelines applied to executive officers of the Company as a whole.  In general, the Compensation Committee considers the Company’s financial performance, peer group financial performance and compensation survey data when making decisions regarding a Named Executive Officer’s compensation, including base salary, incentive compensation and awards made under the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan .  For detailed information on the Company’s peer group, see “ Role of Compensation Consultants ” section of this report.





Chief Executive Officer Compensation. In determining Mr. Wagner’s compensation, the Compensation Committee conducted a performance appraisal that reviewed Mr. Wagner’s financial, strategic and operational achievements.  The Compensation Committee, as well as the full Board of Directors, determined that the Company outperformed many of its strategic objectives during the past year under the leadership of CEO Wagner and increased Mr. Wagner’s base compensation by 6% to $460,000 for 2016.  On December 16, 2015, the Company's Board of Directors extended Mr. Wagner's employment agreement for an additional year so that the term of the agreement remains three years.





Other Named Executive Officers . The Compensation Committee increased base compensation for the other Named Executive Officers for 2016 as follows:  Russell J. Omer by 5.3% to $270,000 and Guida R. Sajdak by 5.4% to $196,000.  In addition, on September 24, 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a three-year employment agreement for Guida R.

Sajdak, and on October 28, 2015, the employment agreement was accepted by Ms. Sajdak. On December 16, 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors extended Mr. Omer’s employment agreement for an additional year so that the term of the agreement remains three years.





The Compensation Committee believes that the compensation for the Named Executive Officers is consistent with our compensation philosophy as described above.

Employment Agreements


The Company and the Bank each maintain three-year employment agreements with the President and Chief Executive Officer, the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer, and the Bank maintains an employment agreement with the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.  The Company and Bank employment agreements may be renewed on an annual basis for an additional year beyond the then current expiration date in connection with each executive’s performance review by the Board of Directors of the Bank. The current base salaries under the employment agreements for the President and Chief Executive Officer,  the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer, and the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer are $460,000, $270,000 and $196,000, respectively.  Each executive’s salary is reviewed at least annually.  In addition to base salary, the employment agreements provide for, among other things, participation in stock benefits plans and other fringe benefits applicable to executive personnel.  The employment agreements also provide the executives with certain payments and benefits upon termination of service.  See “Potential Post-Termination or Change in Control Benefits.”


The Bank or the Company (as applicable) will pay all reasonable costs and legal fees paid or incurred by the executive in any dispute or question of interpretation relating to their employment agreements if the executives are successful on the merits in a legal judgment, arbitration or settlement.  The employment agreements also provide that the Bank or the Company (as applicable) will indemnify the executive to the fullest extent legally allowable and subject the executives to a one year non-compete in the event their employment is terminated for reasons other than a change in control or cause.

Option Exercises and Stock Vested


During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Named Executive Officers did not exercise any stock options and did not vest in any restricted stock awards.


Executive Supplemental Retirement Income Agreements.  The Bank maintains an individual executive supplemental retirement income agreement with the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer.  The benefits under the agreements are fully funded from past Bank contributions, and accordingly, the Bank no longer makes any contributions under the agreements.  Benefits may be distributed from the trust upon retirement, death or termination of service.  See “Potential Post-Termination or Change in Control Benefits.”


Chicopee Bancorp, Inc. 2012 Phantom Stock Unit Award and Long-Term Incentive Plan .  The Company implemented the Chicopee Bancorp, Inc. 2012 Phantom Stock Unit Award and Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), effective as of January 1, 2012, to promote the long-term financial success of the Company and its subsidiaries by providing a means to attract, retain and reward individuals who contribute to such success and to further align their interests with those of the Company’s stockholders.  The Plan is intended to provide benefits to the Named Executive Officers and other executive officers of the Company or any subsidiary selected by the Committee.   The Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (“Committee”).   A total of 150,000 phantom stock units are available for awards under the Plan.  A phantom stock unit represents the right to receive a cash payment on the date the award vests (also referred to as the determination date) equal to the book value of a share of the Company’s common stock on the determination date, which is the last day of the plan year that is the end of the third plan year after the grant date of the award, unless otherwise specified by the Committee.  The settlement of a phantom stock unit on the determination date will be in cash, subject to applicable tax withholding.  Unless the Committee determines otherwise, the required period of service for full vesting will be three years, subject to acceleration of vesting in the event of the participant’s death, disability, retirement, involuntary termination without cause or the occurrence of a change in control, unless determined otherwise by the Committee.  In the event of separation of service (as defined in the Plan) for any reason other than disability, death, retirement or termination without cause, phantom stock units will be forfeited.  In the





13


---







event of termination for cause, the phantom stock units granted to a participant will expire and be forfeited.  Upon separation of service due to disability, death, retirement or involuntary termination without cause, including resignation for “good reason” (as defined in the Plan), all phantom stock units will become fully vested and payment of the cash value of the phantom stock units will be made no later than 75 days after the participant’s separation of service.  In the event of a change in control, (i) the phantom stock units held by a participant will be deemed to have been fully earned, (ii) the cash value of outstanding awards will be paid no later than 10 days after the change in control, (iii) any performance measure attached to an award will be deemed satisfied as of the date of the change in control, and (iv) the cash value of the phantom stock unit will be determined by multiplying the book value of a share of Company common stock by the price-to-book value multiple of a share of the Company stock, where the price reflects the merger consideration per share.


No awards under the Plan were made in calendar year 2015.


Nonqualified Deferred Compensation


Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan. The Bank maintains the Chicopee Savings Bank Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, a non-tax-qualified defined contribution retirement plan, for the purpose of providing restorative payments to executives designated by the Board of Directors who are prevented from receiving the full benefits contemplated by the employee stock ownership plan’s benefit formula and the full matching contribution under the 401(k) Plan.  The President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer are currently the only participants in the plan ( see table below). The restorative payments under the plan consist of payments in lieu of shares that cannot be allocated to the participant’s account under the employee stock ownership plan and payments for employer matching contributions that cannot be allocated under the 401(k) Plan due to the legal limitations imposed on tax-qualified plans.  In addition to providing for benefits lost under the employee stock ownership plan and 401(k) Plan as a result of limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue Code, the supplemental executive retirement plan also provides supplemental benefits to participants upon a change in control (as defined in the plan) before the complete scheduled repayment of the employee stock ownership plan loan.  See “Potential Post-Termination or Change in Control Benefits.”

Potential Post-Termination or Change in Control Benefits


Payments Made Upon Termination for Cause. If the President and Chief Executive Officer, the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer or the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer is terminated for cause, the applicable executive will receive his base salary through the date of termination and retain the rights to any vested benefits subject to the terms of the plan or agreement under which those benefits are provided.


Pursuant to the terms of the executive supplemental income agreements, the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer will not receive any additional employer contributions under these agreements.


All unvested stock awards and unvested or unexercised stock options granted under the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan will be forfeited in the event of termination for cause.

If the President and Chief Executive Officer, the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer, or the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, respectively, voluntarily terminates employment under circumstances that would not constitute good reason (as defined in the applicable executive’s employment agreement), the applicable executive would be entitled to receive his or her compensation and vested rights and benefits up to the date of his termination.  If the Company or the Bank chooses to terminate the executive’s employment for reasons other than for cause, or if the executive resigns from the Company or the Bank under specified circumstances that would constitute constructive termination, the applicable executive (or, upon his death, his beneficiary) would be entitled to receive a lump sum severance payment equal to the executive's base salary due for the remaining term of the employment agreement and the contributions that would have been made on the executive's behalf to any employee benefit plans of the Bank and the Company during the remaining term of his employment agreement.  In addition, the applicable executive would also be entitled to continued life, health and dental coverage for the remaining term of the employment agreements.  Upon termination of the executive’s employment under these circumstances, the executive must adhere to a one-year, non-competition restriction.


All unvested stock awards and unvested or unexercised stock options granted under the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan will be forfeited upon voluntary termination and termination without cause or good reason.


Payments Made Upon Disability. If the President and Chief Executive Officer, the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer or the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer becomes disabled, resulting in the executive’s termination of employment, the employment agreements provide for a disability benefit equal to 100% of the executive’s bi-weekly rate of base salary as of the executive’s termination date.  The executives’ disability payments will be reduced by any disability benefits paid to the executives under any policy or program maintained by the Bank and/or the Company.  Disability benefits cease upon the earlier of:  (1) the date an executive returns to full-time employment; (2) the executive’s death; (3) the executive’s attainment of age 65; or (4) the expiration of the executive’s employment agreement.


Upon termination due to disability, outstanding stock options granted pursuant to our 2007 Equity Incentive Plan automatically vest and remain exercisable until the earlier of one year from the date of termination due to disability or the expiration date of the stock options.  Restricted stock awards granted to these executives under the plan automatically vest upon termination due to disability.


See also discussion above in “-Payments Made Upon Voluntary Termination and Termination Without Cause or for Good Reason” for a discussion of payments made upon disability under the executive supplemental income agreements and the supplemental executive retirement plan.


Payments Made Upon Death. Under the President and Chief Executive Officer, the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer and the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer’s employment agreements, the executive’s estate is entitled to receive compensation due to the executive through the last day of the calendar month in which his or her death occurred.


Upon termination due to death, outstanding stock options granted pursuant to our 2007 Equity Incentive Plan automatically vest and remain exercisable until the earlier of one year from the date of death or the expiration date of the stock options.  Restricted stock awards granted to these executives under the plan automatically vest upon death.


Retirement . Under the President and Chief Executive Officer, the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer and the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer’s employment agreements, the executive will receive the compensation due to him or her through his or her retirement date.


Payments Made Upon Termination Following a Change in Control. The employment agreements for the President and Chief Executive Officer, the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer and the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer provide the executive with severance benefits, if within two years following a change in control of the Bank or the Company, the executive terminates employment for good reason (as defined in the agreements) or if the Bank, Company or its successor terminates the executives employment for reasons other than cause following a change in control.  For the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer, the severance benefit would be equal to three times the average of the executive’s annual compensation for the five preceding taxable years (the “base amount”), plus the value of the benefits the executives would have received under the Bank’s retirement plans for 36 months and for the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, the severance benefit would be equal to three times her total compensation (total compensation is generally the greater of the total compensation earned in the calendar year immediately preceding the year of termination or the total compensation earned in the calendar year immediately preceding the year of the change in control) .  Continued life, health and dental coverage would also be provided to the executive for 36 months following their termination of employment.  Under the terms of the Company’s employment agreement for the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending  Officer, the executive would also be entitled to receive additional tax indemnification

payments if the payments and benefits under their employment agreements or any other payments triggered liability under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, as an excise tax constituting “excess parachute payments.”  Under applicable law, the excise tax is triggered by change in control-related payments which equal or exceed three times an executive's base amount.  The excise tax equals 20% of the amount of the payment in excess of one times the executive's base amount.  Under the terms of the Bank's employment agreement for the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, the amount of change in control related severance will be reduced to the minimum extent necessary to ensure that the amount payable is fully deductible under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.


Under the terms of our employee stock ownership plan, upon a change in control (as defined in the plan), the plan will terminate and the plan trustee will repay in full any outstanding acquisition loan.  After repayment of the acquisition loan, all remaining shares of our stock held in the loan suspense account, all other stock or securities, and any cash proceeds from the sale or other disposition of any shares of our stock held in the loan suspense account will be allocated among the accounts of all participants in the plan who were employed by us on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the change in control.  The allocations of shares or cash proceeds shall be credited to each eligible participant in proportion to the opening balances in their accounts as of the first day of the valuation period in which the change in control occurred.  Unlike the payments made under the employment agreements, change in control agreement, and non-qualified defined compensation arrangements, payments under our employee stock ownership plan are not categorized as parachute payments and therefore not subject to each executive’s 280G Limit.


We maintain a supplemental executive retirement plan that provides the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer with a cash payment in the event of a change in control equal to the benefit the executive would have received under our employee stock ownership plan, had the executive remained employed throughout the term of the loan, less the benefits actually provided under the employee stock ownership plan on the executive’s behalf.  All benefits credited to the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer under the supplemental executive retirement plan are nonforfeitable under the plan and therefore will be distributed to the executive upon termination of employment for any reason.


In the event of a change in control of the Company or the Bank, outstanding stock options granted pursuant to our 2007 Equity Incentive Plan automatically vest and, if the option holder is terminated other than for cause within 12 months of the change in control, will remain exercisable until the expiration date of the stock options.  Restricted stock awards granted to executives under the plan also vest in full upon a change in control.  The value of the accelerated options and restricted stock grants count towards each executive’s 280G Limit.


The amount of compensation payable to each Named Executive Officer upon termination for cause, termination without cause, change in control with termination of employment, disability and retirement is shown below.  The amounts shown assume that such termination was effective as of December 31, 2015, and thus include amounts earned through such time and are estimates of the amounts which would be paid out to the executives upon their termination.  The amounts do not include the executive’s account balances in the Bank’s tax-qualified retirement plans or executive account balances in the supplemental income agreements to which each executive has a non-forfeitable interest.  The amounts shown relating to unvested options and awards are based upon the closing price of the Company’s common stock on December 31, 2015, of $17.34 per share. The actual amounts to be paid out can only be determined at the time of such executive’s separation from Chicopee Bancorp.  For a description of the estimated severance payments as shown in the tables below, please see the explanations provided above in this section.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.





Board Independence and Leadership Structure





All of the directors are independent as defined by the rules of The NASDAQ Stock Market, except for Mr. Wagner, who is the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.  In determining director independence, the Board of Directors considered transactions, relationships and arrangements between the Company and its directors, including relationships that are not required to be disclosed in this Form 10-K, including the commercial services provided to the Company by businesses operated by Mr. Bugbee and Mr. Masse.  The Board has determined that the amounts paid by the Company for such services were not material.





The Board of Directors currently combines the position of Chairman of the Board with the position of Chief Executive Officer, coupled with a lead independent director position to further strengthen the Company’s corporate governance structure.  Mr. William J. Giokas serves as our lead independent director. The Board of Directors believes this provides an efficient and effective leadership model for the Company.  Combining the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer positions fosters clear accountability, effective decision-making, and alignment on corporate strategy.  The Board of Directors believes its administration of its risk oversight function is enhanced by the Board’s leadership structure.  To assure effective independent oversight, the Board has adopted a number of governance practices, including holding executive sessions of the independent directors after Board meetings, as needed, and the Board of Directors completes an annual assessment of the Chairman and the Compensation Committee conducts performance evaluations of the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer.





Transactions with Directors and Management





Loans or Extensions of Credit. A number of the Company’s directors and their associates are customers of the Bank. All extensions of credit made to them are made in the ordinary course of business on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with others, and do not involve more than normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features. None of such credits are past due or are classified as non-accrual, restructured or potential problem loans.

Pre-Approval of Services by the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
