PROXY STATEMENT SUMMARY

ESG Highlights

Mid Penn's executive leadership team and Board of Directors recognize the importance of an ongoing focus on its environmental, social and governance ("ESG") oversight framework. An internal committee comprised of members of our senior management team has been established to promote a variety of ESG programs and goals, including sustainability, diversity, inclusion, equality, and transparency. The Board, through its Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, oversees the Corporation's various ESG initiatives.

| | |
|:---|:---|
| ![LOGO](g408065g16g13.jpg) | Environmental Responsibility |

---

Mid Penn is devoted to operating in a sustainable manner and has undertaken a number of initiatives designed to reduce our impact on the environment and to promote environmentally-friendly projects and practices. With a view to increasing efficiency and reducing waste, we are continuing to digitize manual back office and financial center functions. In 2022, we:

• Increased the use of e-records and e-signing technology resulting in a reduction of paper waste and carbon emissions.

• Encouraged environmentally-friendly workplace practices by adding water filtration systems to all facilities in order to discontinue the use of disposable plastic water bottles.

• Continued a multi-year process of converting all facilities to energy efficient systems and finishes to minimize carbon footprint.

• Updated the interior finishes of facilities to include flooring that is UL Environmental Certified or UL Greenguard Certified and furniture that is LEED Certified.

We believe that our focus on environmental sustainability, with the objective of reducing costs and improving sustainability of our operations, will provide a strategic benefit to the Corporation. Furthermore, Mid Penn recognizes that climate change is a growing risk for our planet, and we are committed to doing our part to mitigate this risk by placing increased focus and emphasis on environmental consciousness.

| | |
|:---|:---|
| ![LOGO](g408065g93q77.jpg) | Social Impact |

---

Our success depends on a highly-skilled, properly-motivated, and valued workforce. To that end, employees are provided with professional development opportunities to gain the skills and knowledge they need to advance the Corporation and fulfill personal career goals. In 2022, we continued to implement Human Capital Management practices to enable leaders to better hire talent and manage teams, including goal setting, performance evaluations, succession planning, and learning and development. Some of the ways that Mid Penn invests in human capital are:

• Mid Penn University, offering over 60 instructor-led classes on topics such as technical banking skills, compliance, business development, and more.

• Partnership with HACC, Central Pennsylvania's Community College, providing cost-free higher education to full-time employees who endeavor to earn a degree while continuing to work.

• Individualized development planning and career planning.

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
PROXY STATEMENT SUMMARY

• Mentor and emerging leaders programs.

• Performance coaching.

• Student internship program.

In addition, a Culture Committee was formed to identify, discuss, and plan ways to promote Mid Penn's corporate culture throughout the company. We also offer competitive compensation and benefits packages that reflect the needs of our workforce. We offer medical, dental, and vision benefits, life and disability, parental leave, education reimbursement, and paid time off. We provide competitive retirement benefits, including a 401(k)-match program. In addition to base salary and benefits, Mid Penn employees participate in incentive plans that support our organizational philosophy of allowing employees to share in the Corporation's performance and success. Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and throughout 2022, the health and safety of Mid Penn's employees and their families has been our highest priority. In 2022, we continued the evaluation and evolution of our pandemic plan.

DEI is also central to our success at Mid Penn. Our commitment to diversity and inclusion starts with hiring, retaining, and developing a workforce that is diverse in background, knowledge, skill, and experience. As of December 2022, women represented approximately 68% and self-identified racial and ethnic minorities represented approximately 11% of the Corporation's workforce. With a view toward increasing the representation of women, underrepresented minorities, and the LGBTQ+ community on the Board, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has identified a goal of achieving, over time, a balanced level of diversity in the composition of the Board and added two members with diverse racial or gender backgrounds in 2021.

Mid Penn has non-discrimination and anti-harassment policies as outlined in our employee handbook and a formal Code of Ethics. To encourage productive conversations within our organization, during 2022, we held internal forums to provide opportunities for all colleagues to participate in discussions on career growth, diversity initiatives, mentoring, and volunteerism. In 2022, a DEI Committee comprised of employees was established to further facilitate DEI dialogue.

Mid Penn measures success not only in financial terms, but also in community impact. We are a community bank committed to investing in the financial health and well-being of our neighbors, and we believe that the success of our communities is a shared responsibility. Therefore, we support various organizations through fundraising efforts, educational sponsorship, and community development partnerships. In 2022, we are proud to have:

• Participated in the Beyond School Walls program through Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Capital Region, which provides financial education and mentorship to high school students.

• Bolstered principles of financial literacy through the My Savings Account and Banzai, Inc. programs.

• Awarded academic scholarships to deserving high school seniors throughout Pennsylvania.

• Supported Tri-County Housing Development Corporation, which develops affordable housing for low- and moderate-income individuals and families. Mid Penn employees served on the Board of Directors and taught new homebuyer education classes.

• Served as an executive board member of the Neighborhood Housing Services of Greater Berks, Inc.

Mid Penn is passionate about being a good corporate citizen in the communities where we live and work. Going forward, the Corporation will continue to partner with nonprofit organizations that promote financial literacy, decrease the number of individuals facing economic barriers, and make our communities a reflection of our commitments and values.

Qualifications and Nomination of Directors

The Corporation's Bylaws authorize the number of directors to be not less than five (5) nor more than twenty-five (25). The Bylaws also provide for three classes of directors with staggered three-year terms of office. Terms of the members of each Class expire at successive annual meetings. Currently, Class A consists of five directors; Class B consists of five directors; and Class C consists of five directors. At the 2023 Annual Meeting, Messrs. Greenawalt and Quandel will retire as Class A directors and Mr. Kerwin will retire as a Class B director.

The Board nominated the three persons named below to serve as directors until the 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and until their successors are duly elected and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation, retirement or removal from office. The Board Chair individually met with and interviewed each candidate for re-nomination to assess if the candidate desired to serve an additional term and to determine the best manner in which each director could serve most effectively in the next three years. The nominees are presently members of the Board and have consented to serve another term as a director if re-elected. If the nominees should be unavailable to serve for any reason, a majority of the Board then in office may select someone to fill the vacancy until the expiration of the term of the Class of directors to which he or she is appointed.

The proxy holders intend to vote proxies for the election of each of the three nominees named below, unless you indicate that your vote should be withheld from any or all of them. Brokers holding shares beneficially owned by their clients do not have the ability to cast votes with respect to the election of directors unless they have received instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares. **It is therefore important that you provide instructions to your broker if your shares are held by a broker so that your vote with respect to directors is counted.**

INFORMATION REGARDING DIRECTOR NOMINEES AND CONTINUING DIRECTORS

Compensation of the Board

The Corporation periodically obtains or conducts a survey of director fees, committee fees and other director compensation of banks that are similar in asset size and in similar markets to the Corporation and the Bank. The Compensation Committee reviews these surveys and recommends to the full Board any changes to the compensation of Board members for the upcoming year. The Board has final approval of the compensation of its directors. Directors, with the exception of the Lead Independent Director, received an annual Board fee of $53,750 for the year 2022. Mr. Noone received $84,875 for serving as Lead Independent Director and Committee Chair. Committee Chairs received an additional $6,125 in annual compensation. Committee Vice Chairs received an additional $1,042 in annual compensation. Board members who also serve on the Bank's Regional Business Development Advisory Boards receive an additional fee for each meeting attended. In 2022, Ms. Brumbaugh attended one meeting of the Mid Penn Bank Southeast Region Business Development Advisory Board, receiving total fees of $750 for such additional service. Additionally, in 2022, Mr. Quandel attended three meetings of the Mid Penn Bank Northern Region Business Development Advisory Board, receiving total fees of $2,250 for such additional service. No other directors received such additional meeting fees. Mr. Ritrievi does not receive a fee for serving on the Board.

On April 1, 2022, each non-employee Director who was serving on the Board at that time was awarded a restricted stock grant of $30,013, equating to 1,133 shares of the Corporation's common stock, with a fair market value of $26.49 per share, as part of his or her compensation. These common stock awards were granted with a one-year vesting restriction.

The Corporation and Bank maintain a deferred fee plan for directors, which enables a director to annually elect to defer payment of his or her fees until he or she terminates service on the Board. For 2022, the maximum amount each director could defer was 100% of his or her annual director's fee. Participating directors may elect to receive either a lump sum or equal monthly installments in an amount equal to his or her deferral account (plus interest) upon retirement, early termination, disability, change in control or a hardship. If a director dies before distribution of his or her deferral account commences, the director's designated beneficiary is entitled to receive the amounts in his or her deferral account or the projected account balance at the time the Corporation adopted the deferred fee plan (limited by the amount of net coverage purchased by the Bank), whichever is greater. For 2022, current members of the Corporation's Board participated in this plan as follows: Mr. Abel deferred $40,000; Mr. Mowery deferred $59,875; Mr. Noone deferred $84,875; and Mr. Grubic deferred $43,000.

In May 1995, the Bank adopted the Mid Penn Bank Director Retirement Plan, which we refer to as the "Director Retirement Plan." Under the Director Retirement Plan, Bank directors who terminate their service on the Board other than for cause with at least five years of service are eligible to receive a retirement benefit. The five-year service requirement is waived if a director's service is terminated for disability or within 90 days of a change in control. The annual benefit is determined by multiplying the "base retirement amount" for the director's position ($697.86 for the Chair, $348.93 for all other directors, which reflect the inflationary adjusted rates for 2022) by the number of full years the member served. The plan contains an annual inflationary adjustment provision. Benefits are paid in cash on a quarterly basis and continue for 60 quarterly payments or until the director's death, if earlier.

As detailed in the "Director Compensation Table," in 2022, the current non-employee members of the Corporation's Board were paid $1,281,374, in the aggregate, for their service as directors, which includes (i) all Board fees and fees paid to Ms. Brumbaugh and Mr. Quandel for attendance at Mid Penn Bank Business Development Advisory Board meetings, (ii) the value of restricted stock awards, and (iii) change in pension value and nonqualified deferred compensation earnings.

## GOVERNANCE OF THE CORPORATION
Overview

The Board believes that the purpose of corporate governance is to ensure that the Corporation employs a system of operating practices and procedures designed to maximize shareholder value in a manner consistent with legal and regulatory requirements and the highest standards of integrity. The Board has adopted and adheres to corporate governance practices which the Board believes promote these objectives, are sound and represent best practices. These governance practices, Pennsylvania law (the state of incorporation), the rules and listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq") and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") regulations, as well as best practices suggested by recognized governance authorities, are continually reviewed for consistency and applicability.

The Corporation seeks director candidates who uphold the highest standards of professionalism, are committed to the Corporation's values and are strong independent stewards of the long-term interests of shareholders, employees, customers and the communities in which we work. The Board, through the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, considers Board composition on an ongoing basis, with a focus on recruiting directors who exhibit the qualities required to effectively oversee the Corporation, including its present and future strategies. The Board primarily seeks directors with experience in fields relevant to the Corporation's businesses and operations and who are willing to effectively challenge and provide independent oversight of management. The Board seeks candidates who collectively reflect a meaningful level of diversity in four specific areas: expertise and experience; tenure and age; gender, race, ethnicity; and geography.

All of our directors must be qualified in terms of education, professional experience and applicable skills or core competencies. Each director must exhibit integrity, self-assurance, sound judgment, financial literacy, a history of achievement, a collaborative approach to decision making, inquisitiveness, enthusiasm and, of extreme importance, an independent mindset.

The Board believes that it is important that a director's and shareholders' interests are financially aligned. In order to promote such alignment of interests, it is the Corporation's policy that a newly elected director own at least 500 shares of Corporation common stock upon his or her election, and accumulate a total of at least 2,500 shares by the end of his or her second year on the Board.

The Board also believes that director refreshment is an important component of good corporate governance and seeks to ensure periodic refreshment through a combination of a mandatory retirement age and term limits. By limiting the age and tenure of directors, the Board ensures that the Corporation will benefit from a balanced mix of long-term institutional knowledge, fresh ideas, and independence from management, while promoting director engagement and mitigating against complacency. To that end, the Board has adopted a policy that, with certain limited exceptions for directors in office prior to January 1, 2020, generally requires a director to retire at age 70 and limits director tenure to a maximum of 15 years, in the aggregate. For more information regarding the director retirement and tenure policy, please refer to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Policy and Charter available on the Corporation's website.

Director Independence

The Corporation's current Board is comprised of fifteen individuals. The Board has determined that all but one of the Corporation's non-executive Board members are independent under Nasdaq's corporate governance listing standards, resulting in 86% of the Board being deemed independent of management. In accordance with Nasdaq listing standards, only independent directors serve on the Audit, Compensation, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees.

To be considered independent, a director must have no disqualifying relationships as defined by the Nasdaq listing rules, and the Board must have affirmatively determined that the director has no other relationship with the Corporation, either directly or indirectly, that would interfere with his or her exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

GOVERNANCE OF THE CORPORATION

------

In determining the directors' independence, the Board considered both loan and non-loan transactions between the Bank and the directors, their family members and businesses with whom they are associated, as well as any contributions made to nonprofit organizations with whom they are associated.

Applying the foregoing, the Board has determined that the following directors are independent: Robert A. Abel, Kimberly J. Brumbaugh, Matthew G. DeSoto, Maureen M. Gathagan, Howard R. Greenawalt, Robert C. Grubic, Brian A. Hudson, Sr., Gregory M. Kerwin, Bruce A. Kiefer, Theodore W. Mowery, John E. Noone, Noble C. Quandel, Jr., and William A. Specht, III. Rory G. Ritrievi, current Chair, President, and Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation, and David E. Sparks, who received consulting fees from the Corporation in 2021, are not considered independent.

For more information regarding types of transactions, relationships or arrangements considered by the Board in reaching its determination that the directors are independent, please refer to "Related Person Transactions."

Board Leadership Structure

The Board is led by a Chair selected by the Board. Prior to 2021, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Policy and Charter (the "N&CGC Policy") required that the role of Chair be filled by a non-executive director. Following a review of the practices of similarly situated, exchange-listed bank holding companies, the Board determined it to be advisable to update the N&CGC Policy to grant the Board the discretion to combine or separate the positions of Chair and Chief Executive Officer depending on the needs and circumstances of the Corporation as they exist from time to time.

Rory G. Ritrievi, President and Chief Executive Officer, currently serves as Board Chair. The Board believes that Mr. Ritrievi's leadership role in developing the strategic vision of the Corporation, extensive knowledge of all aspects of the Corporation's business, risks, shareholder base, employees and customers, and his intimate involvement in the Corporation's day-to-day activities uniquely qualify him to serve as Board Chair during this important stage of the Corporation's development, while the presence of an overwhelming majority of independent directors on the Board, coupled with a strong Lead Independent Director in Mr. Noone, enables the Board to continue to effectively provide guidance to, and oversight and accountability of, management.

The N&CGC Policy empowers the Chair to call meetings of the Board, preside over meetings of the Board and shareholders, and oversee the information provided to the Board in advance of meetings.

In the event that the Chair is an executive of the Corporation or otherwise not independent under Nasdaq listing rules, the N&CGC Policy requires that the Board elect a Lead Independent Director, who shall be independent as determined in accordance with Nasdaq listing rules and shall:

• preside over meetings in the absence of the Chair;

• preside over meetings of the independent directors and facilitate communications between the independent directors and the Chair;

• have the authority to call meetings or executive sessions of the independent directors;

• serve as the liaison between the independent directors and the Chair;

• be available for consultation and direct communication with major shareholders, as appropriate;

• provide input to the Chair regarding agenda items and information requested by directors; and

• discharge such other responsibilities as the Board may assign from time to time.

John E. Noone currently serves as Lead Independent Director. Nasdaq listing rules require that our independent directors meet in executive session at least once annually. This meeting was held in October 2022.

Risk Oversight by Board

The Board is responsible for defining the strategic vision of the Corporation, establishing acceptable risk tolerances within which management is required to operate in order to attain identified strategic objectives, and overseeing and holding management accountable for execution of the overall strategic plan, all with a view toward maximizing shareholder value. Much of this oversight function is administered through the use of committees, which are focused on particular aspects of the Corporation and Bank's operations and functions, and the risk inherent in those operations and functions. The Board seeks to constitute its committees with Board members who possess certain expertise or skill sets complementary to that committee's oversight function. For example, the Audit Committee, which is charged with overseeing the financial risk associated with the Corporation's operations, is comprised of four Board members who qualify as a "financial expert" under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

In addition to the general oversight of Corporation business and operations, and recognizing the unique risks that cyber threats pose to today's financial institutions, the Board also reviews a comprehensive quarterly Enterprise Risk Management Report, prepared by the Bank's Chief Risk Officer, which includes metrics and trends on major risk areas, including cybersecurity, asset quality, interest rate risk, operations, capital adequacy, and liquidity. Additionally, the IT/Compliance Committee provides further support to the Board in its role of overseeing cybersecurity risks affecting the Corporation by focusing particularly on new and emerging threats and the Corporation's defenses and responses to those threats.

The Board also recognizes the unique risks that may be posed by virtue of an organization's compensation practices. In establishing the compensation of the Corporation's executive officers, specifically, and overseeing the compensation programs of all employees, generally, the Compensation Committee is required to consider the risks associated with the Corporation's compensation practices, to ensure that such practices do not encourage the taking of unnecessary risks.

Further, in addition to receiving regular reports from Board committees, the Board Chair and the Corporation's officers keep the full Board informed of the Corporation's business through regular meetings and by providing regular reports and other materials to Board members. For more information about the Board's committees, see "Committees and Meetings of the Corporation's Board" below.

Restrictions on Hedging

Our Code of Ethics includes anti-hedging provisions that prohibit all employees and directors from day trading or short selling Corporation securities and from engaging in transactions in any derivative of Corporation securities (other than securities issued under a Corporation compensation plan), including buying and writing options.

Ritrievi, Chair, President, and Chief Executive Officer, Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc., at 2407 Park Drive, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania 17110, with a copy to Elizabeth O. Martin, Corporate Secretary, at the same address. Written communications received from shareholders are shared with the full Board or appropriate committee as warranted. The Board has a complaint procedure for communicating accounting, internal accounting controls and auditing matters. Complaints generated are directed to a separate mailing address, which is under the control of the Chair of the Audit Committee. Please refer to *Governance Documents* in the *Corporate Information* section under the *Investors* link on the Corporation's website at <u>www.midpennbank.com</u> for complete details.

The function of each of the Corporation's committees is described below.

| |
|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br> Among other responsibilities, this committee identifies, evaluates and recommends to the Board candidates for election or appointment as directors; monitors and makes recommendations to the Board on matters of policies and practices relating to corporate governance; and makes recommendations to the Board with respect to amendments to the Corporation's organizational documents. All members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are independent (as independence is currently defined by Nasdaq listing standards). Robert A. Abel serves as Chair and Matthew G. DeSoto serves as Vice Chair of this committee.<br>The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has a charter which is available under *Governance Documents* in the *Corporate Information* section under the *Investors* link on the Corporation's website at <u>www.midpennbank.com.</u><br>When developing a list of potential nominees, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may take into consideration names provided by shareholders, directors or executive management. Information is gathered concerning the potential Board member's location of business and residence, shares owned, and profession or business. Information about the individual's core competencies and personal characteristics, including integrity, expertise and enthusiasm, is also gathered to determine if the candidate meets the criteria listed in the N&CGC Policy. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee screens this information to narrow its search of final candidates to be interviewed. Upon completion of the interviews, the Committee makes a final recommendation to the full Board. All potential candidates are screened by the same process regardless of whether they are recommended by a director, a member of executive management, or a shareholder.<br>|

With a goal of making progress toward inclusive representation of women, underrepresented minorities and the LGBTQ+ community on the Board, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has identified a goal of achieving, over time, a balanced level of diversity in the composition of the Board. While this goal continues to be a primary focus of the Committee, we are pleased to report that the Board has made significant progress over the last four years with the additions of Ms. Brumbaugh in 2019 and Mr. Hudson and Ms. Gathagan in 2021.

Environmental and Social Commitments

As a publicly traded community financial institution, it is incumbent upon the Corporation to assure that its operations are conducted in a manner that is both consistent with environmental preservation and supportive of the entire community in which it operates.

While the Corporation does not have a formal environmental policy because the nature of its operations does not result in a direct, material impact on the environment, the Corporation strives to operate in a manner that is environmentally friendly. We are currently in the process of implementing a multi-year plan to make each of the buildings in which the Corporation and its subsidiaries operate more environmentally friendly through scheduled renovations utilizing materials intended to leave as small a carbon footprint as economically feasible. Additionally, through its credit portfolio, the Corporation has strived to focus its efforts on companies that also operate in an environmentally-favorable manner.

Additionally, the Corporation endeavors to be a socially-responsible corporate citizen. As evidenced by the hundreds of thousands of dollars it contributes to charitable causes throughout its footprint, the thousands of hours of community service provided by its employees during work hours, the dedication of its entire team to two major, annual charitable fundraising programs (to combat breast and prostate cancer), and the initiatives it has developed centering on women in banking and promoting diversity and inclusion, the Corporation is committed to being a socially-responsible corporate citizen.

## RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS
Related person transactions greater than $120,000 must be approved by the Board prior to any commitment by the Bank to any such transaction. Directors do not participate in the discussions and are not present for voting on their own related person transactions. All of the material terms, conditions and purpose of the transaction must be described in writing and provided to the Board, together with the written request for approval of any such transaction. The transaction is to be reviewed and approved by the appropriate senior officer before being submitted to the Board for approval. Related person transactions for ongoing or continuing services can be reviewed and pre-approved within reasonable parameters established by the Board on an as-needed basis. If the terms, pricing or conditions change so as to go outside the specified parameters cited in the request, the transactions are required to be resubmitted for review and approval.

From time to time, the Bank has engaged in and intends to continue to engage in banking and financial transactions in the ordinary course of business with the Corporation's and the Bank's officers and directors and their immediate families and companies in which they had an ownership interest of 10% or more, in each case on comparable terms as those prevailing from time to time for other customers and vendors. Loans from the Bank to such persons 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 loans with persons not related to the Bank, and do not involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features. The Corporation does not extend loans to related persons.

The Bank is party to a lease agreement with an entity that is an affiliate of Mr. Noone, Lead Independent Director of the Corporation's Board, in connection with a retail branch property located in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, which has a remaining initial term of 12 years. Following our 2015 acquisition of Phoenix Bancorp, Inc., the Bank assumed a lease agreement with the same entity in connection with a retail branch property located in Frackville, Pennsylvania, which has a remaining initial term of 14 years. The aggregate lease payments to such entity, of which Mr. Noone is a 98% limited partner, totaled approximately $175,000 during 2022. In determining director independence, the Board considered these lease arrangements and concluded they do not impact the independence of Mr. Noone.

Julie Webb, spouse of Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer Justin T. Webb, has been employed by the Bank since 2020. She currently serves as Vice President, Director of Risk Management Services for MPB Risk Services, LLC, a subsidiary of Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. In such role, Ms. Webb earned compensation in excess of $120,000 in 2022, and received retirement, health and wellness benefits, all on comparable terms as those provided for other employees of the Bank. Pursuant to the Related Person Transactions Policy, our Audit Committee reviewed and approved the details of Ms. Webb's employment.

Lawrence Kiefer, brother of former director Donald Kiefer and current director Bruce Kiefer, has been employed by the Bank since 2018. He currently serves as Vice President, Transition Ambassador in our western market. In such role, Mr. Lawrence Kiefer earned compensation in excess of $120,000 in 2022, and received retirement, health and wellness benefits, all on comparable terms as those provided for other employees of the Bank. Pursuant to the Related Person Transactions Policy, our Audit Committee reviewed and approved the details of Mr. Kiefer's employment.

Neither the Corporation nor the Bank has entered into any other material transactions, proposed or consummated, with any other director or executive officer of the Corporation or the Bank, or any associate of the foregoing persons.

At our 2022 annual meeting, over 93% of the votes cast by our shareholders approved the compensation paid to our named executive officers.

As described in detail in this proxy statement, our executive compensation programs are designed to attract, motivate, reward and retain our named executive officers, who are critical to our success. We are asking our shareholders to indicate their support for our named executive officer compensation as described in this proxy statement. This proposal, commonly known as a "say-on-pay" proposal, gives our shareholders the opportunity to express their views on our named executive officer compensation. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our named executive officers and the philosophy, policies and practices described in this proxy statement. Accordingly, we ask our shareholders to vote FOR the following resolution at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders:

"RESOLVED, that the shareholders of Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. hereby approve the compensation of the Corporation's named executive officers, as described in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis and accompanying tabular and narrative disclosure contained in the Corporation's proxy statement for the 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders."

Because your vote is advisory, it will not be binding upon the Board. However, the Compensation Committee will take into consideration the outcome of the vote when considering future executive compensation arrangements.

Compensation Program Authority and Objectives

2023 PROXY STATEMENT 23

executive officers of the Corporation and its subsidiaries are designed to (i) align with the interests of our shareholders and the strategic goals of the Corporation and its subsidiaries, (ii) attract and retain highly-qualified executives who are motivated to achieve high levels of performance, both short-term and long-term, (iii) be competitive with compensation programs of peer institutions, (iv) not encourage undue risk-taking which would negatively affect the safety and soundness of the Corporation and its subsidiaries, and (v) comply with the requirements of the appropriate regulatory bodies.

In making its compensation decisions for 2022, the Compensation Committee desired to recognize the efforts of the members of the executive management team who guided the Corporation in achieving each of the foregoing milestones.

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis describes the key elements of our compensation program for our named executive officers. For the year 2022, our named executive officers are:

---

| &nbsp;&nbsp; Name | Position |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Rory G. Ritrievi | President, Chief Executive Officer and Director of the Corporation and Bank |

| &nbsp;&nbsp; Scott W. Micklewright | Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Revenue Officer of the Bank |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Joseph L. Paese | Executive Vice President and Director of Trust and Wealth Management of the Bank |

<sup>(1)</sup> Mr. Holt served as Interim Chief Financial Officer of the Corporation and Bank from August 30, 2021 to February 28, 2022.

<sup>(2)</sup> Effective May 11, 2022, the Board appointed Ms. Johnson as Chief Financial Officer of the Corporation and Bank.

<sup>(3)</sup> Mr. Webb served as Interim Chief Financial Officer of the Corporation and Bank from February 28, 2022 until May 11, 2022.

Compensation Program Design Overview

The main elements of compensation for 2022 for the named executive officers were base salary, short-term incentives and bonuses, restricted stock awards, and the vesting of cash retention bonuses implemented in 2019. Such elements are consistent with the Corporation's compensation objectives to align with the long-term growth and sustained earnings objectives of shareholders, and our ability to attract, retain, and motivate highly-qualified executives.

Management's Input Involving the Compensation Program

The Compensation Committee considers the views and recommendations of the Chief Executive Officer in making compensation decisions affecting executive officers who report to him. The Chief Executive Officer's role in recommending compensation levels and compensation program elements is to develop and recommend appropriate performance measures and targets for each individual, to report on the respective individual's performance, to provide data and background material to enable the Compensation Committee to assess the labor market and to make specific recommendations on each named executive officer's respective salary. The Chief Executive Officer does not recommend his own salary and is not present during the Compensation Committee's or the Board's discussions or decisions regarding his or his team's specific compensation.

Supplementary to executive compensation peer data provided by the Corporation's independent compensation consultant, members of the Corporation's Finance and Human Resources management team periodically provide the Chief Executive Officer and the Compensation Committee with updated peer analyses, which compile compensation program data disclosed by other peer banks in their respective SEC filings, in order for the Compensation Committee to assess the competitive market for executive compensation, and the consistency of the Corporation's elements and amount and trend of executive compensation with those of similarly-profiled peer banks.

Compensation Consultant's Role in Determining Compensation

In 2022, the Compensation Committee continued to utilize the services of Meridian Compensation Partners, LLC, an independent consulting firm that specializes in executive and board compensation. In connection with the 2022 engagement, Meridian provided relevant peer data analysis (utilizing 2021 proxy information, the most recent compensation data publicly available) and advice for consideration by the Committee in evaluating compensation of the named executive officers. The Board's objective is to compensate our executive officers at or around the 50<sup>th</sup> percentile of peers. The following peer group comprised of commercial banks with total assets ranging between $2.3 billion and $9.5 billion was used in Meridian's analysis:

Results of Shareholder Say on Pay Vote in Determining Compensation

Each year, the Corporation asks its shareholders to cast a non-binding advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers, known as a "say-on-pay" vote. At the 2022 Annual Meeting, the Corporation's shareholders approved the compensation of our named executive officers by an overwhelming majority of more than 93% of votes cast. The Compensation Committee considers the shareholders' voted level of approval of our executive compensation practices relative to both the current year, and say-on-pay voting trends over several years, as a key input when considering whether to significantly change the Corporation's compensation policies and practices. The strong past-shareholder support of our compensation philosophy, combined with the strong retention of the executive management team, has led the Compensation Committee to conclude that a material change to such philosophy is not currently necessary, although the Committee continues to seek the advice of an independent compensation consultant, as well as data from management, to ensure that the Corporation's pay practices are consistent with current market conditions and best practices.

CEO Pay Ratio Disclosure

In 2015, the SEC adopted a rule requiring certain public companies to disclose the ratio of the total compensation of the CEO to the median compensation of its other employees.

For the Corporation, the median employee was determined using a census of all full-time and part-time employees as of November 30, 2022, which totaled 599 personnel excluding the CEO. The annual total compensation for all employees on this census was calculated using the same pay elements shown for the CEO in the "Summary Compensation Table – 2022". The primary elements of this 2022 total compensation calculation included base salary/wages, bonuses and incentive compensation, employer matching contributions to the Corporation's 401(k)

2023 PROXY STATEMENT 25

plan, restricted stock grants, auto allowances, employer-paid life insurance premiums and nonqualified deferred compensation. For full-time employees who were hired during 2022, the base salary/wages element was annualized to determine the respective individual's total compensation.

As disclosed in the "Summary Compensation Table – 2022," the total compensation of the CEO for 2022 was $1,330,999. The 2022 total compensation of the median employee was $55,392. The resulting ratio of the CEO's total compensation to that of the median employee is 24.0 to 1.

Components of Compensation

Base Salary

Base salary levels are set to attract and retain executives who can further the Corporation's and Bank's strategic objectives and who are motivated to achieve high levels of performance, both short-term and long-term. Base salary is the most significant component of the named executive officers' compensation, and the Compensation Committee reviews it every year to determine whether the salary for each respective named executive officer is at an appropriate level when considering the relevant inputs. As mentioned above, the Chief Executive Officer reviews each named executive officer's performance, other than his own, in making salary recommendations to the Compensation Committee. The Chief Executive Officer and the Compensation Committee consider each named executive officer's general management performance; policy, procedure, and regulatory compliance; public relations; strategic objectives management; length of service with the Corporation and Bank; and the named executive officer's position and areas of responsibility in making its determination of the appropriate level of base salary. The Compensation Committee reviews the Chief Executive Officer's performance in making a salary recommendation to the Board.

Short-Term Incentives and Bonuses

In 2021 and 2022, the Corporation maintained an informal executive compensation plan pursuant to which our named executive officers were eligible to receive short-term cash and equity incentives for the achievement of corporate and individual performance goals. In order to receive a payment under the plan in 2022, the named executive officer had to be employed prior to September 30, 2021 and on the date of payout, and both the corporate and individual performance goals, which include actions that can only be taken by the named executive officer for the respective performance period, must be achieved. The short-term incentives for performance in 2021 and for the first quarter of 2022 paid to named executive officers were awarded in the first quarter of 2022. A key input considered by the Compensation Committee in determining whether to recommend an award and the amounts thereof were the actual earnings performance of the Corporation for the full year of 2021 and the first quarter of 2022 compared to the Board-approved targeted net income available to common shareholders for the respective periods as well as other non-financial targets. The Board's targeted net income for 2021 was $30,290,000 while actual net income for such period was $29,320,000. The Board's targeted net income for the first quarter of 2022 was $10,850,000 while actual net income for that period was $11,354,000. The Compensation Committee believed that the Board-approved earnings targets were aggressive and difficult to achieve, particularly in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic.

As a result of this performance relative to the Board-approved targets, and taking into account the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on 2021 results, and considering each named executive officer's respective performance goals and achievements, the Compensation Committee awarded cash incentive payments of $200,000 to Mr. Ritrievi, $110,000 to Messrs. Webb and Micklewright and $30,000 to Mr. Paese. These cash incentive payouts ranged from 11.6% to 33.1% of such executive's 2021 base salary amounts.

Restricted Stock Plan

The Corporation continues to make restricted common stock awards to named executive officers, other members of management, and directors under the Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. 2014 Restricted Stock Plan, which was initially approved by the Corporation's shareholders in 2014 and subsequently amended in 2020 with shareholder approval. Restricted stock is common stock granted to an employee or director that does not vest until specific

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

------

conditions are met. Typical conditions for employees receiving restricted stock grants include performance goals for the individual or the Corporation, and for the vesting thereof, the individual being required to remain employed with the Corporation or Bank for a specific number of years. Once the conditions are met, then the common stock vests and the employee obtains the shares without restrictions. The Board believes that restricted stock awards can serve as an important element in attracting and retaining employees and directors whom the Board expects to contribute to the Corporation's growth and success both in the near-term, and over the longer-term vesting period and beyond, to realize benefits in the growth on the value of the Corporation's stock in alignment with shareholder interests. By compensating employees and directors with shares of Corporation common stock, the employees and directors have additional incentive to ensure that the Corporation is successful. Based on the recommendations of the Compensation Committee, the Board determines to whom specifically it grants restricted stock, as well as the timing, vesting schedule, and number of shares subject to the award. The number of shares of common stock which may be issued under the Restricted Stock Plan, as amended, may not exceed 200,000 shares. The Compensation Committee may suspend or terminate the Restricted Stock Plan at any time and may amend the Restricted Stock Plan at any time provided that no such amendment may be made without shareholder approval if such approval is required by law, agreement or the rules of any exchange upon which the shares of common stock are listed. In addition, no such amendment, suspension or termination may impair the rights of participants still employed by the Corporation with respect to outstanding restricted shares previously awarded under the Restricted Stock Plan without their consent.

At the 2023 Annual Meeting, shareholders are requested to approve a new, omnibus stock incentive plan. If approved, this new plan will replace the Restricted Stock Plan, which is due to expire in May 2024. Please refer to Proposal 3 for more information.

Retention Bonuses

In 2022, a two-year retention bonus was awarded to Messrs. Webb and Micklewright and a three-year retention bonus was awarded to Mr. Ritrievi. While advanced in full on the grant date, these bonuses were structured such that they vest over a two-year or three-year period (one-half or one-third on each anniversary of the grant date), subject to the executive's continued employment. In the event that the executive's employment is terminated for cause or the executive resigns prior to the final anniversary of the grant date, the executive is required to repay any unvested portion plus interest on the unvested portion. Previous retention bonuses issued in 2020 fully vested in 2022, and the amounts are reflected in the Summary Compensation Table below.

Benefit Plans Available for All Employees

Certain benefit plans, including group insurance plans as described below, are not tied to Bank or individual performance. The cost of providing such plans to all eligible employees, including named executive officers, is viewed as a cost of doing business and not taken into account when determining specific compensation of the named executive officers.

Group Insurance Plans

The named executive officers participate in group insurance benefit plans that are generally available to all employees. These plans include group life insurance, group disability, health insurance and dental and vision benefits. Such plans are standard in the industry and in the geographic area for all industries, as well as necessary to compete for talented employees at all levels of the Bank. Under the group life insurance plan, Mr. Ritrievi was unable to get the same percentage of coverage as other employees due to the maximum benefit provided for in the plan. In order to afford Mr. Ritrievi the same long-term disability coverage as other employees, an individual policy was purchased with the premium (and Mr. Ritrievi's associated income tax liability) reimbursed by the Bank.

Retirement Plan

In an effort to encourage its employees, including the named executive officers, to save for retirement, the Bank has established a tax-qualified 401(k) retirement plan for employees. The Bank believes that it is important to assist employees in saving for retirement and believes that by providing a mechanism to save for retirement, and through Bank matching of certain employee contributions, the Bank is providing the named executive officers with a reasonable and industry-expected incentive to continue in the employ of the Bank.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Corporation has a Board approved Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Plan"), which has been in place effective January 1, 2011, to provide eligible employees of the Corporation or the Bank, including the named executive officers, with an opportunity to purchase shares of common stock of the Corporation at fair market value through payroll deductions. The Plan provides participants with a convenient method to acquire an interest in the common stock of the Corporation and realize the benefits of their efforts toward the long-term performance and success of the Corporation in alignment with our shareholders' interests.

At the 2023 Annual Meeting, shareholders are requested to approve a new, tax-qualified employee stock purchase plan. If approved, this new, tax-qualified plan will replace the 2011 plan. Please refer to Proposal 4 for more information.

Company Vehicle

Each of the named executive officers, excluding Mr. Holt, is provided a company vehicle. Provision of a company vehicle is standard in the financial services industry as executive officers frequently meet clients and business associates at locations offsite of the Corporation's offices. Each executive's personal use of the company vehicle is tracked and calculated for inclusion in their taxable and total compensation.

Accounting and Tax Treatments

The Compensation Committee, in consultation with Finance management, considers the accounting and tax consequences of the compensation program and its elements, both for the Corporation and the individual, prior to making any changes to the compensation structure. Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code limits the deduction of compensation paid to the named executive officers if certain thresholds are exceeded. Based upon the current base salary and compensation structure and existing agreements with the executives, the Corporation does not believe that Section 162(m) limitations were triggered in 2022 for our named executive officers, but this may be applicable in future years dependent upon factors including legislative changes to the limits, specific provisions and exclusions, or applicability of this tax code section.

Material Differences in Named Executive Officers' Compensation

The differential between salary levels for each of the named executives is primarily driven by their respective positions, with consideration also given to the experience and time in their respective positions.

Employment, Change in Control, and Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan Agreements

Employment Agreements

Each named executive officer, other than Mr. Holt, is party to an employment agreement with the Corporation and the Bank, which, unless earlier terminated, automatically renews for a total of the next three years (two years for Mr. Paese) on each September 6. The employment agreements provide that Messrs. Ritrievi, Micklewright, Webb and Paese will receive an annual base salary of $625,000, $350,000, $350,000 and $295,000 respectively, and Ms. Johnson will receive an annual base salary of $325,000, which may be increased from time to time. In addition to base salary, the employment agreements provide for, among other things, participation in bonus programs and other benefit plans and arrangements applicable to executive officers of the Bank.

In the event of the executive's involuntary termination of employment without "cause" or in the event of a voluntary termination for "good reason" (each as defined in the employment agreement), the executive would become entitled to continue to receive the executive's base salary in effect on the date of termination for a period equal to the greater of the remaining employment term or six months and participate in the Bank's life, disability, medical/health insurance and other benefits substantially similar to those which the executive was receiving during the year prior to the date of termination for the same period described above immediately following the date of termination, or a cash payment equal to the estimated after-tax cost to obtain such benefits, or substantially similar benefits.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

------

The employment agreement and the executive's employment may be terminated for "cause" (as defined in the employment agreement) by written notice from the Corporation or the Bank. If the employment agreement is terminated for cause, the executive's rights under the employment agreement terminate as of the effective date of termination. The employment agreement also terminates without further payments to the executive as of the termination date in the event of the executive's voluntary termination of employment (other than for good reason) or death. In the case of the executive's "disability" (as defined in the employment agreement), the executive will become eligible for employer-provided short-term and/or long-term disability benefits, or worker's compensation benefits, in which case the Bank's obligation to pay the executive their annual base salary shall be reduced by such benefits. Under certain other types of disabilities set forth in the employment agreement, the employment agreement will terminate six months following a determination related to such disability by the Corporation's board of directors.

In the event that the executive is involuntarily terminated for cause or voluntarily terminates employment without good reason, the executive will be subject to a twelve-month non-solicitation covenant (applicable to both customers and employees). In the event that the executive is involuntarily terminated without cause or voluntarily terminates employment for good reason, the executive will be subject to a twelve-month non-solicitation covenant with respect to employees and a six-month non-solicitation covenant with respect to customers.

The employment agreement with each executive provides that, in the event that the payments to be received by the executive, when taken together with payments and benefits payable to or on behalf of the executive under any other plans, contracts or arrangements, would constitute an excess parachute payment under Internal Revenue Code Section 280G, the executive may elect to reduce the payment actually received in order to reduce or eliminate the impact of the excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code. The executive is not entitled to a "gross-up" payment to reduce the effect of the tax under Section 4999 of the Code.

Mr. Ritrievi's employment agreement further provides that he shall serve on the Bank's board of directors and shall be re-nominated for election to the Corporation's board of directors, with the Corporation's board of directors recommending such election to its shareholders, for any annual meeting of shareholders at which the class of directors in which Mr. Ritrievi is serving will be elected. Mr. Ritrievi's service as director of the Corporation, the Bank and any affiliate or subsidiary shall immediately terminate upon the termination of his employment for any reason.

Change in Control Agreements

The Corporation has entered into change in control severance agreements with each of its named executive officers, other than Mr. Holt. Each agreement has a "double-trigger" payment feature requiring both a change in control of the Corporation and the involuntary termination of the executive's employment without cause or voluntary termination of employment by the executive for "good reason" in order for the benefit to be payable.

More specifically, in the event an executive's employment is terminated on or within twelve months after a "change in control" during the term of the agreement either by the Corporation, other than for death or disability or for a reason other than "cause" (as defined in the agreement), or by the executive after the occurrence of certain specified events constituting "good reason" (described below), the Corporation will pay the executive a lump-sum cash payment. That payment is equal to 2.99 times the executive's highest annual base salary in effect during the twelve months preceding the executive's termination of employment with respect to Mr. Ritrievi, 2.75 times with respect to Ms. Johnson and Messrs. Webb and Micklewright, and 2.25 times with respect to Mr. Paese. In addition, the executive and the executive's beneficiaries will remain eligible to participate, on the same terms and conditions as apply from time to time to the Corporation's executive management team, medical, vision and dental programs for 33 months for Ms. Johnson and Messrs. Webb and Micklewright, 27 months for Mr. Paese, and three years for Mr. Ritrievi, or a cash payment equal to the estimated after-tax cost to obtain such benefits, or substantially similar benefits, within thirty days following the executive's termination. In the event that the executive is involuntarily terminated for cause or voluntarily terminates employment during the term of the agreement, the executive will be subject to a twelve-month non-solicitation covenant (applicable to both customers and employees). In the event that the executive is involuntarily terminated without cause or voluntarily terminates employment for good reason, the executive will be subject to a twelve-month non-solicitation covenant with respect to employees and a six-month non-solicitation covenant with respect to customers.

The specified events of "good reason" permitting an executive to terminate employment following a change in control and receive payments or benefits under the agreement include: (i) a material diminution in executive's authority, title, duties or responsibilities following a change in control from the authority, title, duties or responsibilities existing as of a change in control; (ii) requirement that the executive perform a substantial portion of his or her duties at a location more than 50 miles from executive's principal executive office on the date of the agreement; or (iii) a material decrease in executive's base salary and other compensation and benefits existing as of a change in control.

If, within ninety days after a termination of an executive's employment that entitles such executive to payments under the agreement, the Corporation's Board becomes aware of facts that, if known during the executive's employment, it reasonably believes would have justified termination of such executive's employment for cause (as defined in the agreement), the Corporation may refrain from paying any unpaid amounts due under the agreement or require the executive to promptly, but in no event less than ninety days after notice to such executive of such determination by the Corporation's Board, repay any amounts previously paid or the value of any benefits previously received under the agreement.

The agreement with each executive provides that, in the event that the payments to be received by the executive, when taken together with payments and benefits payable to or on behalf of the executive under any other plans, contracts or arrangements, would constitute an excess parachute payment under Internal Revenue Code Section 280G, the executive may elect to reduce the payment actually received in order to reduce or eliminate the impact of the excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code. The executive is not entitled to a gross up payment to reduce the effect of the tax under Section 4999 of the Code.

Each agreement is for a term of three years and renews for an additional year on each anniversary of the respective named executive officer's signing, absent notice of non-renewal from either party.

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan Agreements

The Bank is a party to supplemental executive retirement plan agreements ("SERPs") with each of its named executive officers, other than Mr. Holt. Each SERP provides for the monthly payment of a fixed cash benefit over a period of fifteen (15) years, commencing on the first day of the month following the executive's separation from service: (i) occurring on or after reaching normal retirement age (age 70); (ii) due to disability; (iii) due to death; or (iv) within two (2) years following a change in control of the Bank. The terms of the SERPs are identical for each executive, except for the amount of the annual benefit and the timing of vesting of the benefit, which is as follows: Mr. Ritrievi—$190,000 (approximately 40% currently vested with the remainder to vest ratably over the next four years); Ms. Johnson—$100,000 (0% currently vested with the remainder to vest ratably over the next ten years); Messrs. Micklewright and Webb—$100,000 (approximately 45% currently vested with the remainder to vest ratably over the next four years); and Mr. Paese—$80,000 (approximately 25% currently vested with the remainder to vest ratably over the next six years). The Board of Directors of the Bank reserves the right to increase the amount of the benefit from time to time, in its discretion.

In the event that any payment owing under the SERP would constitute an excess parachute payment under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, each SERP provides the executive with the same election right as that described under the heading "Change in Control Agreements" above. The executive is not entitled to a gross up payment to reduce the effect of the tax under Section 4999 of the Code.

The SERP also contains non-competition and non-solicitation covenants. A violation of such covenants, except in limited circumstances, would result in the forfeiture of any unpaid benefits to the executive.

Risk Analysis of Compensation Practices and Policies

The Compensation Committee reviewed the compensation policies and practices for all employees and determined that they do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Corporation or Bank.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

The Corporation has no Compensation Committee interlocks. Messrs. Mowery, DeSoto, Kerwin, and Quandel and Mses. Brumbaugh and Gathagan constitute all of the directors who served on the Compensation Committee at any time during 2022. Each of them is an independent outside director. None of them is a current or former officer or employee of the Corporation. During 2022, the Bank engaged in customary banking transactions and had outstanding loans to certain of its directors, executive officers, members of the immediate families of certain directors and executive officers and their associates. These loans were made in the ordinary course of business and were made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with persons not related to the lender. In the opinion of management, these loans do not involve more than normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features. Non-banking relationships that members of the Compensation Committee have had or maintain with the Corporation or Bank are described under the heading, "Related Person Transactions." Rory G. Ritrievi, Chair, President, and Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation, attended Compensation Committee meetings only when and to the extent requested by the Committee. Mr. Ritrievi did not participate in determining his own compensation.

<sup>(1)</sup> This amount includes the vested portion of the two-year retention bonus granted in 2020 to Mr. Webb and Mr. Micklewright and the three-year retention bonus granted in 2020 to Mr. Ritrievi described under " Retention Bonuses." This amount includes a signing bonus paid upon the commencement of Mr. Holt's and Ms. Johnson's employment, as well as a bonus for Mr. Webb's time served as interim Chief Financial Officer. 

<sup>(2)</sup> We calculated these amounts using the provisions of ASC Topic 718. Amounts represent the full grant date fair value of the restricted stock awards granted July 24, 2020, September 1, 2020, December 22, 2020, June 1, 2021, April 1, 2022, and June 1, 2022. Depending upon the terms of each respective grant, some percentage of the shares of restricted stock granted vests on each anniversary of the date of grant (each, a "vesting tranche"), but only if such named executive officer remains continuously employed through the applicable anniversary date. The vesting periods range from one year to four years. We include the assumptions used in the calculation of these amounts in the footnotes to our audited financial statements included in our respective Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020, 2021, and 2022. 

<sup>(3)</sup> This amount reflects the cash incentive payments described under "Short-Term Incentives and Bonuses." 

<sup>(4)</sup> Represents the aggregate increase of $8,183, $4,060, and $3,781 in the present value of the officer's accumulated benefit under the Director Retirement Plan for Mr. Ritrievi in 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively, and reflects the change in the present value of future benefits payable under Supplemental Executive Retirement Plans (SERPs), described under the heading "Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Table". 

<sup>(5)</sup> Includes the amounts on the following table that we paid to or on behalf of the named executive officers during 2022. 

<sup>(6)</sup> Mr. Holt was served as Interim Chief Financial Officer from August 30, 2021 through February 28, 2022.

<sup>(7)</sup> Effective May 11, 2022, the Board appointed Ms. Johnson as Chief Financial Officer of the Corporation and Bank.

Retirement Plans

The Corporation does not maintain a defined benefit pension plan for its employees. Mr. Ritrievi, however, participates in the Director Retirement Plan in connection with his service on our Board. We describe the Director Retirement Plan under the caption "Compensation of the Board."

The Bank maintains the Mid Penn Bank Retirement Plan (hereafter, the "Retirement Plan"), which is a defined contribution plan and covers all eligible Bank employees, including the named executive officers. The Retirement Plan also has a 401(k) provision for all eligible Bank employees. Eligible employees are entitled to receive a share of the Bank's discretionary profit-sharing contribution to the Retirement Plan for a year if they are Bank employees on December 31 of that year. For 2022, the Board approved a 401(k) safe harbor matching contribution rate of 100% on the first 4% of the employee deferral contributions plus 50% on the next 1% of the employee deferral contributions, up to a maximum Bank contribution of 4.50%. The Board may adjust its matching rate on an annual basis at its discretion.

The Board makes discretionary contributions to the Retirement Plan based on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee. The Corporation did not make a discretionary profit-sharing contribution for 2022. Distribution under the Retirement Plan can be made to participating employees upon retirement, either normal or early retirement as defined in the Retirement Plan's provisions, at death or disability of the participating employee or upon severing employment if either partially or fully vested. The Retirement Plan's discretionary contributions and non-safe harbor contributions are subject to vesting at the rate of 20% per year after the first two years of service with 100% vesting after six full years of service. The 401(k) safe harbor matching contributions are 100% vested when made. Participants are always 100% vested in their own 401(k) contributions. As of December 31, 2022, each of the named executive officers, with the exception of Ms. Johnson, was 100% vested in their discretionary accounts.

On April 1, 2022, the Corporation awarded restricted stock to Messrs. Ritrievi, Webb, Micklewright and Paese, and on June 1, 2022, the Corporation awarded restricted stock to Ms. Johnson under the Restricted Stock Plan, which is described above under the caption "Restricted Stock Plan." Each named executive officer's shares vest 25% on each anniversary of the date of grant (each, a "vesting tranche"), but only if the named executive officer remains continuously employed through the applicable anniversary date. In general, a participant in the Restricted Stock Plan will forfeit shares then unvested upon his or her termination of employment for any reason. Upon a participant's death, the participant will vest in any unvested shares that would have vested in that calendar year.

The following table sets forth the number of shares acquired upon the vesting of stock awards by our named executive officers during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change of Control

Each of the named executive officers, other than Mr. Holt, would be entitled to certain contractual benefits if their employment terminates under certain circumstances preceding or following a change in control. The agreements are described under the caption "Employment, Change in Control, and Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan Agreements" included in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis. We calculated the potential post-employment payments due to each of these named executive officers assuming each named executive officer terminated employment or a change in control occurred on December 31, 2022. Actual amounts payable can only be determined at the time of such executive's termination.

The Board of Directors believes that stock-based incentive awards play an important role in the success of the Corporation by encouraging and enabling the employees, officers and non-employee directors of the Corporation and its subsidiaries upon whose judgment, initiative and efforts the Corporation largely depends for the successful conduct of its business to acquire a proprietary interest in the Corporation. The Board of Directors further believes that providing such persons with a direct stake in the Corporation assures a closer identification of the interests of such individuals with those of the Corporation and its shareholders, thereby stimulating their efforts on the Corporation's behalf and strengthening their desire to remain with the Corporation.

In order to advance these interests, the Corporation currently maintains its 2014 Restricted Stock Plan, which is due to expire in 2024 and with respect to which there are currently 41,655 shares remaining available for issuance.

On March 13, 2023, the Board of Directors, in reliance upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, unanimously approved, subject to the approval of the Corporation's shareholders, the adoption of the Corporation's 2023 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Stock Incentive Plan"), which serves to increase the types of equity awards available for issuance, thereby granting the Corporation greater flexibility in designing its future compensation programs, and ensures that the Corporation will continue to maintain an equity incentive plan to fund its equity compensation programs upon expiration of the 2014 Restricted Stock Plan.

If approved by the shareholders, the Stock Incentive Plan will be effective as of the date of such approval and will replace the 2014 Restricted Stock Plan, such that no additional grants will be made under that plan.

Best Practice Features of the Stock Incentive Plan

The Stock Incentive Plan includes a number of features that we consider to be consistent with best practices, including, among others:

• **Independent Oversight** *.* The Stock Incentive Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, comprised of independent members of our Board of Directors.

• **Limitations on Individual Compensation**. The Stock Incentive Plan limits the number of shares that may be subject to awards issued to any one individual during any calendar year to a maximum of 50,000.

• **No Evergreen Provision** *.* The number of shares authorized for issuance under the Stock Incentive Plan will be fixed at 350,000, which represents less than 3% of the Corporation's currently outstanding shares. Such number of shares is expected to be sufficient to fund the Corporation's equity compensation programs for approximately the next four to five years. The Stock Incentive Plan does not include an "evergreen" feature that would cause the number of authorized shares to automatically increase in future years.

PROPOSAL NO. 3: APPROVAL OF THE MID PENN BANCORP, INC. 2023 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

------

• **Conservative Share Reuse Provision** *.* Shares subject to an award under the Stock Incentive Plan will not be available for reissuance if such shares are tendered in payment of the exercise price of a stock option, delivered or withheld to satisfy any tax withholding obligation, added back after having been repurchased by the Corporation using stock option exercise proceeds, or not issued upon the settlement of a stock-settled Stock Appreciation Right ("SAR" or "SARs") or other awards.

• **Minimum Vesting Periods**. The Stock Incentive Plan requires that, except in limited circumstances, any full value awards granted to employees (awards other than options or SARs that are valued on the basis of Corporation Common Stock) that vest solely based on continued service must have a vesting period of at least three years. Full value stock awards that vest based on the achievement of performance measures or other performance objectives must include a performance measurement period of at least one year.

• **Limited Acceleration Discretion**. The Compensation Committee does not have discretion to accelerate the vesting of awards, except in the event of death, disability, retirement or a change in control.

• **Clawback Policy** *.* The award agreements entered into by participants as a condition of equity awards granted under the Stock Incentive Plan provide that all awards under the Stock Incentive Plan are subject to the Corporation's clawback policy as in effect from time to time.

• **Forfeiture Provisions**. If a participant has been engaged in fraud, embezzlement, theft, commission of a felony, or dishonesty in the course of the grantee's employment by or service with the Corporation or any subsidiary, or that the grantee has disclosed trade secrets of the Corporation or its affiliates, or that the grantee has intentionally failed to perform the individual's stated duties, and that such actions have damaged the Corporation or any subsidiary in any significant manner, in the discretion of the Compensation Committee, then the grantee shall forfeit all rights under and to all unexercised grants, and under and to all grants to the grantee with respect to which the Corporation has not yet delivered payment or certificates for shares of Corporation Common Stock (as the case may be), all of which grants and rights shall be automatically canceled.

• **Multiple Award Types** *.* The Stock Incentive Plan permits the issuance of stock options, restricted stock units, restricted stock and other types of equity grants, subject to the share limits of the Stock Incentive Plan. This breadth of award types enables the Compensation Committee to tailor awards in light of market conditions and the accounting, tax and other standards applicable at the time of grant, which tend to change over time.

• **Repricing Prohibited** *.* Repricing of stock options is prohibited without prior shareholder approval.

• **Discount Stock Options and SARs Prohibited and Term Limited** *.* All stock options and SARs must have an exercise price equal to or greater than the fair market value of our Common Stock on the date the stock option or SAR is granted and a term of no more than 10 years.

Rationale for the Stock Incentive Plan

We manage our long-term shareholder dilution by limiting the number of equity incentive awards granted annually. The Compensation Committee carefully monitors our annual net burn rate, total dilution and equity expense in order

to maximize shareholder value by granting only the number of equity incentive awards that it believes are necessary and appropriate to attract, reward and retain our employees. Our compensation philosophy reflects broad-based eligibility for equity incentive awards for high performing employees. By doing so, we link the interests of those employees with those of our shareholders and motivate our employees to act as owners of the business.

The Compensation Committee determined the number of shares of Corporation common stock reserved for issuance under the Stock Incentive Plan based on projected equity awards to anticipated new hires, projected annual equity awards to existing employees and an assessment of the magnitude of increase that our institutional investors and the firms that advise them would likely find acceptable. We anticipate that if our request of the share reserve in the Stock Incentive Plan is approved by our shareholders, it will be sufficient to provide equity incentives to attract, retain, and motivate employees for approximately the next four years.

Summary of the Stock Incentive Plan

The following is a summary of the key provisions of the Stock Incentive Plan. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Stock Incentive Plan, which is attached as Annex A.

Administration

The Stock Incentive Plan is administered and interpreted by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee has the sole authority to (i) determine the individuals to whom grants shall be made under the Stock Incentive Plan, (ii) determine the type, size and terms of the grants to be made to each such individual, (iii) determine the time when the grants will be made and the duration of any applicable exercise or restriction period, including the criteria for vesting and the acceleration of vesting, and (iv) deal with any other matters arising under the Stock Incentive Plan. Because all awards under the Stock Incentive Plan are discretionary, it is not possible to predict the awards that will occur if the amendment to the Stock Incentive Plan is approved. Neither the Board of Directors nor the Compensation Committee has made any decisions regarding future awards under the Stock Incentive Plan.

Grants

Incentives under the Stock Incentive Plan consist of grants of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, deferred stock units and performance shares. All grants are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Stock Incentive Plan and to those other terms and conditions consistent with the Stock Incentive Plan as the Compensation Committee deems appropriate.

Eligibility for Participation

All employees of the Corporation and its present or future subsidiaries, including employees who are officers or members of the Board, are eligible to participate in the Stock Incentive Plan. In addition, members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation or members of the Board of Directors of any subsidiary of the Corporation, who are not employees of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries are also eligible to participate in the Stock Incentive Plan and may receive grants in the discretion of the Compensation Committee; provided, however, that only employees are eligible to receive Incentive Stock Options. The Compensation Committee selects the individuals to receive grants and determines the number of shares of Corporation Common Stock subject to a particular grant in such manner as the Compensation Committee determines. As of the date of this proxy statement, there were approximately 414 employees and 15 directors eligible to participate in the Stock Incentive Plan.

Stock Options

The Compensation Committee may grant options intended to qualify as "incentive stock options" ("Incentive Stock Options") within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), or options which are not intended to so qualify ("Nonqualified Stock Options"), or any combination of Incentive Stock Options and Nonqualified Stock Options (referred to in this summary collectively as the "Stock Options"), all in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Stock Incentive Plan.

• The purchase price of common stock subject to a Stock Option shall be determined by the Compensation Committee and shall not be less than 100% of the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date such Stock Option is granted.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT 39

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
PROPOSAL NO. 3: APPROVAL OF THE MID PENN BANCORP, INC. 2023 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

------

• The Compensation Committee shall determine the term of each Stock Option; provided, however, that the term of a Stock Option shall not exceed ten years from the date of grant.

• The vesting period for Stock Options shall commence on the date of grant and shall end on the date or dates, determined by the Compensation Committee, as specified in the grant instrument.

• Without prior approval of the shareholders, the Corporation may not cancel a previously granted Stock Option in exchange for cash or a replacement grant with a lower (or no) exercise price; provide for any automatic grant of a new Stock Option upon a grantee's exercise of any Stock Option; or amend a Stock Option to lower the exercise price (except in connection with anti-dilution adjustments) or take any other action that could constitute a repricing.

Stock Appreciation Rights

The Compensation Committee may grant SARs to any grantee (i) independently, or (ii) in tandem with any Stock Option for all or a portion of the applicable Stock Option. Tandem SARs may be granted either at the time the Stock Option is granted or at any time thereafter while the Stock Option remains outstanding; provided, however, that in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, such tandem rights may be granted only at the time of the grant of such Incentive Stock Option. Unless the Compensation Committee determines otherwise, the base price of each SAR shall be equal to the greater of (i) the exercise price of the related Stock Option, if any, or (ii) the fair market value of a share of common stock as of the date of grant of such SAR.

• No SAR shall be exercisable more than 10 years after the date of its grant.

• A SAR not granted in tandem with a Stock Option will become exercisable at such time or times, and on such terms and conditions, as the Compensation Committee shall specify in the grant instrument. A SAR granted in tandem with a Stock Option will be exercisable only at such time or times, and to the extent, that the related Stock Option is exercisable and will be exercisable only in accordance with the exercise procedure for the related Stock Option. Upon the exercise of a Stock Option, the SARs relating to the common stock covered by the related Stock Option shall terminate. Upon the exercise of SARs, the related Stock Option shall terminate to the extent of an equal number of shares of Corporation Common Stock.

• Upon a grantee's exercise of some or all of the grantee's SARs, the grantee shall receive in settlement of such SARs an amount equal to the value of the stock appreciation for the number of SARs exercised, payable in cash, common stock or a combination thereof. The stock appreciation for a SAR is the difference between the base price of the SAR and the fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date of exercise of such SAR.

Restricted Stock

The Compensation Committee may issue or transfer shares of Corporation Common Stock to an eligible participant under a grant of restricted stock ("Restricted Stock"), upon such terms as the Compensation Committee deems appropriate. The following provisions are applicable to grants of Restricted Stock:

• Restricted Stock may be issued for cash consideration or for no cash consideration, at the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee shall establish conditions under which restrictions, if any, on the transfer of shares of Restricted Stock shall lapse over a period of time or according to such other criteria as the Compensation Committee deems appropriate. The period of time during which the Restricted Stock will remain subject to restrictions will be designated in the grant instrument as the "Restriction Period."

• If the grantee ceases to be employed by the Corporation or, in the case of a non-employee director, to serve or be engaged as such, during a period designated in the grant instrument as the Restriction Period, or if other specified conditions are not met, the grant of Restricted Stock shall terminate as to all shares covered by the grant as to which restrictions on transfer have not lapsed and those shares of Restricted Stock must be immediately returned to the Corporation.

Deferred Stock Units

The Compensation Committee may grant to a participant the right to receive shares of Corporation common stock to be delivered in the future, or a cash payment equal to the fair market value of one or more shares of Corporation

common stock as of a date in the future (a "Deferred Stock Unit"). Delivery of the common stock, or payment of the applicable cash amount, pursuant to a Deferred Stock Unit will take place at such time or times, and on such terms and conditions, as the Compensation Committee may determine.

Performance Shares

The Compensation Committee may grant Performance Shares to such participants as it may select in its sole discretion, on such terms and conditions as the Compensation Committee shall determine. Performance Shares represent the right to receive a share of Corporation common stock, or payment of the fair market value of a share of Corporation Common Stock, at the discretion of the Compensation Committee, upon the attainment of specified performance goals.

The Compensation Committee shall set performance goals which, depending on the extent to which they are met during a Performance Period, will determine the number of Performance Shares that will be delivered to the recipient at the end of the Performance Period. The performance goals shall be set at threshold, target and maximum performance levels, with the number of Performance Shares to be delivered tied to the degree of attainment of the various performance levels under the various performance goals during the Performance Period. No payment shall be made with respect to a Performance Share if the threshold performance level is not attained.

"Performance Period" means that period established by the Compensation Committee during which the attainment of performance goals specified by the Corporation with respect to a grant of Performance Shares is to be measured. A Performance Period may be a 12-month period or a longer period.

"Performance Measures" means one or more of the following criteria, on which performance goals may be based, each a "Performance Measure": (a) return on equity, (b) return on assets, (c) revenues, (d) net income, (e) earnings per share, (f) net operating profit, (g) non-interest income growth, (h) economic profit, (i) loan growth, (j) deposit growth, (k) shareholder value added or economic value added, (l) stock price or total shareholder return, (m) return on investment, (n) non-interest income to total revenue ratio, (o) net interest margin, (p) net charge-off ratio, (q) reserve coverage of non-performing loans, (r) market share, (s) productivity ratios, (t) regulatory compliance, (u) satisfactory internal or external audits, (v) capital and expense management, (w) achievement of risk management objectives, (x) efficiency ratio, (y) the ratio of non-performing assets to total assets, and (z) the ratio of non-performing loans to total loans. Performance Measures may be applied on a pre-tax or post-tax basis, and be based upon the performance of the Corporation, of any subsidiary, or a division or unit thereof, or of an individual grantee or groups of grantees. Performance Measures may be applied on an absolute basis or in relation to a peer comparison group or index.

The Compensation Committee has the discretion and authority to make adjustments to any grant of Performance Shares in circumstances where, during the Performance Period: (a) a grantee leaves the Corporation or any subsidiary and is subsequently rehired; (b) a grantee transfers between positions with different performance goals; (c) a grantee transfers to a position not eligible to participate in the grant; (d) a grantee becomes eligible, or ceases to be eligible, for another incentive offered by the Corporation or any subsidiary; (e) a grantee is on a leave of absence; and (f) similar circumstances deemed appropriate by the Compensation Committee, consistent with the purpose and terms of the Stock Incentive Plan.

Minimum Vesting Requirements

Except in the case of substitute awards or awards granted as an inducement to join the Corporation as a new employee to replace forfeited awards from a former employer, any "full-value" award (generally defined as an award, other than a Stock Option or SAR, that is valued on the basis of Corporation Common Stock) granted under the Stock Incentive Plan to an employee will either be (i) subject to a minimum vesting period of three years (which may include graduated vesting within such three-year period), or one year if the vesting is based on performance criteria other than continued service, or (ii) granted solely in exchange for foregoing cash compensation. The Compensation Committee, however, may permit acceleration of vesting of such awards in the event of the grantee's death, disability or retirement, or upon a Change of Control or Ownership.

Transferability of Grants

During a grantee's lifetime, only the grantee may exercise rights under a grant and grants may not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any manner, by operation of law or otherwise, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or, with respect to grants other than Incentive Stock Options, if permitted in any specific case by the Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion.

When a grantee dies, the representative or other person entitled to succeed to the rights of the grantee may exercise such rights. A successor grantee must furnish proof satisfactory to the Corporation of his or her right to receive the grant under the grantee's will or under the applicable laws of descent and distribution.

Change of Control of the Corporation

In the event of a Change of Control or Ownership of the Corporation, all outstanding Stock Options and SARs become immediately exercisable, all restrictions on outstanding Restricted Stock will automatically and immediately lapse, and the time for delivery of the common stock or payment of the applicable cash amount under any outstanding Deferred Stock Unit will automatically accelerate. A "Change of Control or Ownership" shall be deemed to have occurred if:

• Any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires ownership of common stock that, taken together with stock held by such person or group, constitutes more than 50% of the total voting power or total fair market value of common stock then outstanding.

• Any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires (or has acquired during the twelve-month period ending on the most recent acquisition by such person or group) ownership of common stock possessing 30% or more of the total voting power of common stock, or a majority of the Corporation's Board of Directors is replaced during any twelve-month period by directors whose appointment or election is not endorsed by a majority of the Board of Directors prior to the date of election.

• Any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires (or has acquired during the twelve-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or group) assets from the Corporation that have a total gross fair market value equal to or more than 40% of the total gross fair market value of all assets of the Corporation immediately prior to such acquisition or acquisitions.

Death, Disability and Retirement

In the event of the death, disability or retirement of a grantee, all outstanding Stock Options and, generally, all outstanding SARs become immediately exercisable.

Amendment and Termination of the Stock Incentive Plan

The Board of Directors may amend, suspend or terminate the Stock Incentive Plan at any time, in its discretion, subject to any required shareholder approval or any shareholder approval which the Board of Directors deems advisable for any reason.

Withholding of Taxes

The Corporation has the right to deduct from all grants paid in cash, or from other wages paid to an employee of the Corporation, any federal, state or local taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to such cash awards and, in the case of grants paid in Corporation common stock, the grantee or other person receiving such shares shall be required to pay to the Corporation the amount of any such taxes which the Corporation is required to withhold with respect to such grants or the Corporation shall have the right to deduct from other wages paid to the employee by the Corporation the amount of any withholding due with respect to such grants. The Compensation Committee is authorized to adopt rules, regulations or procedures related to tax withholding, including provision for the satisfaction of a tax withholding obligation, by the retention of shares of Corporation common stock to which the grantee would otherwise be entitled pursuant to a grant or by the grantee's delivery of previously owned shares of Corporation common stock or other property.

------

Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA)

The Stock Incentive Plan is not a qualified deferred compensation Plan under Section 401(a) of the Code. The Corporation believes that the Stock Incentive Plan is not subject to any of the provisions of ERISA.

Forfeiture

If the Compensation Committee finds, after consideration of the facts presented on behalf of the Corporation and the involved grantee, that the grantee has been engaged in fraud, embezzlement, theft, commission of a felony, or dishonesty in the course of the grantee's employment by or service with the Corporation or any subsidiary, or that the grantee has disclosed trade secrets of the Corporation or its affiliates, or that the grantee has intentionally failed to perform the individual's stated duties, and that such actions have damaged the Corporation or any subsidiary in any significant manner, in the discretion of the Compensation Committee, then the grantee shall forfeit all rights under and to all unexercised grants, and under and to all grants to the grantee with respect to which the Corporation has not yet delivered payment or certificates for shares of Corporation common stock (as the case may be), all of which grants and rights shall be automatically canceled. Such forfeiture shall not apply to any Incentive Stock Option to the extent the forfeiture would result in disqualification of the stock option as an incentive stock option under Sections 421 and 422 of the Code.

The decision of the Compensation Committee as to the cause of the grantee's discharge from employment with the Corporation and any subsidiary shall be final for purposes of the Stock Incentive Plan, but shall not affect the finality of the grantee's discharge by the Corporation of subsidiary for any other purposes.

Tax Aspects Under the Code

The following is a summary of the principal federal income tax consequences of certain transactions under the Stock Incentive Plan. It does not describe all federal tax consequences under the Stock Incentive Plan, nor does it describe state or local tax consequences.

Incentive Options

No taxable income is generally realized by the optionee upon the grant or exercise of an incentive option. If shares of Corporation common stock issued to an optionee pursuant to the exercise of an incentive option are sold or transferred after two years from the date of grant and after one year from the date of exercise, then (i) upon sale of such shares, any amount realized in excess of the option exercise price (the amount paid for the shares) will be taxed to the optionee as a long-term capital gain, and any loss sustained will be a long-term capital loss, and (ii) the Corporation will not be entitled to any deduction for federal income tax purposes. The exercise of an incentive option will give rise to an item of tax preference that may result in alternative minimum tax liability for the optionee.

If shares of Corporation common stock acquired upon the exercise of an incentive option are disposed of prior to the expiration of the two-year and one-year holding periods described above (a "disqualifying disposition"), generally (i) the optionee will realize ordinary income in the year of disposition in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the fair market value of the shares of Corporation common stock at exercise (or, if less, the amount realized on a sale of such shares of Corporation common stock) over the option price thereof, and (ii) we will be entitled to deduct such amount. Special rules will apply where all or a portion of the exercise price of the incentive option is paid by tendering shares of Corporation common stock.

If an incentive option is exercised at a time when it no longer qualifies for the tax treatment described above, the option is treated as a non-qualified option. Generally, an incentive option will not be eligible for the tax treatment described above if it is exercised more than three months following termination of employment (or one year in the case of termination of employment by reason of disability). In the case of termination of employment by reason of death, the three-month rule does not apply.

2023 PROXY STATEMENT 43

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
PROPOSAL NO. 3: APPROVAL OF THE MID PENN BANCORP, INC. 2023 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

------

Non-Qualified Options

No income is realized by the optionee at the time a non-qualified option is granted. Generally (i) at exercise, ordinary income is realized by the optionee in an amount equal to the difference between the option exercise price and the fair market value of the shares of Corporation common stock on the date of exercise, and we receive a tax deduction for the same amount, and (ii) at disposition, appreciation or depreciation after the date of exercise is treated as either short-term or long-term capital gain or loss depending on how long the shares of Corporation common stock have been held. Special rules will apply where all or a portion of the exercise price of the non-qualified option is paid by tendering shares of Corporation common stock. Upon exercise, the optionee will also be subject to Social Security taxes on the excess of the fair market value over the exercise price of the option.

Other Awards

The Corporation generally will be entitled to a tax deduction in connection with other awards under the Stock Incentive Plan in an amount equal to the ordinary income realized by the participant at the time the participant recognizes such income. Participants typically are subject to income tax and recognize such tax at the time that an award is exercised, vests or becomes nonforfeitable, unless the award provides for a further deferral.

Parachute Payments

The vesting of any portion of an award that is accelerated due to the occurrence of a change in control (such as a sale event) may cause a portion of the payments with respect to such accelerated awards to be treated as "parachute payments" as defined in the Code. Any such parachute payments may be non-deductible to the Corporation, in whole or in part, and may subject the recipient to a non-deductible 20% federal excise tax on all or a portion of such payment (in addition to other taxes ordinarily payable).

Limitation on Deductions

Under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Corporation's deduction for awards under the Stock Incentive Plan may be limited to the extent that any "covered employee" (as defined in Section 162(m) of the Code) receives compensation in excess of $1 million a year.

Vote Required

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting is necessary to approve the Stock Incentive Plan. Abstentions and broker non-votes, if any, will have no effect on whether or not this proposal is approved.

New Plan Benefits

The awards, if any, that will be made to eligible grantees under the Stock Incentive Plan are subject to the discretion of the Compensation Committee, and thus we cannot currently determine the benefits or number of shares subject to awards that may be granted in the future to eligible grantees under the Stock Incentive Plan. Therefore, no new plan benefits table can be provided at this time. For more information on the awards granted under the 2014 Restricted Stock Plan to our named executive officers in 2022, see the section above entitled "Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal 2022 Year-End." For more information on the awards granted under the 2014 Restricted Stock Plan to our directors in 2022, see the section above entitled "Director Compensation Table."

Registration with the SEC

If the Stock Plan Amendment is approved by our shareholders, we intend to file a Registration Statement on Form S-8 relating to the Stock Incentive Plan with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Act as soon as is practicable after such approval.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

The Board unanimously recommends that the shareholders vote FOR approval of the Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. 2023 Stock Incentive Plan.

The Corporation is requesting that its shareholders vote to approve the Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. 2023 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Purchase Plan"). The following summary of the principal features of the Purchase Plan is qualified by reference to the full text of the Purchase Plan, attached as Annex B to this Proxy Statement.

If approved by the shareholders, the Purchase Plan would permit eligible employees to purchase shares of common stock directly from the Corporation from authorized but previously unissued shares or shares held in treasury. The Corporation will use the proceeds it receives from the sale of such common stock pursuant to the Purchase Plan for general corporate purposes. It is the Corporation's intention that the Purchase Plan qualifies as an "employee stock purchase plan" under Section 423 of the Code.

If approved by the shareholders, the Purchase Plan will replace the Corporation's 2011 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, which is a non-tax qualified plan.

Rationale for the Purchase Plan

The purpose of the Purchase Plan is to encourage and enable employees of the Corporation and its subsidiaries to acquire an ownership interest in the Corporation through a regular investment program, as well as encourage employee retention. The Corporation believes that employees who participate in the Purchase Plan will have a closer identification with the Corporation by virtue of their ability, as shareholders, to participate in the Corporation's growth and earnings, and will be motivated to remain with the Corporation and improve their job performance accordingly.

Key Terms

The Purchase Plan is designed to meet the requirements of Code Section 423. The following highlights the key provisions of the Purchase Plan:

a. **Effective Date and Term**. The Purchase Plan will be effective upon its approval by the shareholders of the Corporation and will remain in effect until all shares of common stock reserved thereunder have been purchased, unless terminated earlier by the Corporation's Board of Directors.

b. **Eligible Participants**. Each employee of the Corporation and its subsidiaries who has been employed for at least six consecutive months and whose customary employment is 20 or more hours per week is eligible to participate once such employee has executed a payroll deduction authorization form. As of the date of this proxy statement, approximately 414 employees would have been eligible to participate in the Purchase Plan.

PROPOSAL NO. 4: APPROVAL OF THE MID PENN BANCORP, INC. 2023 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

------

c. **Shares Authorized**. The number of shares authorized for issuance under the Purchase Plan will be fixed at 500,000, which represents approximately 3% of the Corporation's currently outstanding shares.

d. **Purchase Price**. The purchase price for shares purchased under the Purchase Plan shall initially equal the lesser of 85% of the fair market value of such shares on the offering date and 85% of the fair market value of such shares on the date of purchase. Accordingly, shares will be offered to eligible employees at a 15% discount. The purchase price may be adjusted from time to time by the Board of Directors; provided, however, that the discount to fair market value shall not exceed 15%.

e. **Offering Period**. Each offering period is three (3) months with one purchase date per quarter.

Eligibility

Any employee, who, on the relevant offering date, has been employed for at least six consecutive months and whose customary employment is 20 or more hours per week is eligible to participate in the Purchase Plan. Non-employee directors of the Corporation are ineligible to participate.

Administration of the Purchase Plan

The Board administers the Purchase Plan in the absence of a committee appointed by the Board for such purpose. The committee or Board, as applicable, has the authority to make a final and binding determination of all questions of, and interpretations with respect to, the operation of the Purchase Plan.

Custodian

The Corporation's current registrar and transfer agent, Computershare, has been designated the initial custodian under the Purchase Plan.

Participation in the Purchase Plan

There are four consecutive quarterly offering periods under the Purchase Plan in each calendar year. An offering period begins each January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1 and continues until the next offering period commences. Subject to certain limitations, an employee may begin participating in the Purchase Plan effective at the beginning of an offering period by submitting an authorization form for regular payroll deductions prior to the commencement of the next offering period. Once enrolled in the Purchase Plan, a participant is able to purchase common stock with deductions from the participant's pay that the Corporation pays in the payroll next following the commencement of the next offering period. Once a quarterly offering period is ended, a participant is automatically enrolled in the next offering period unless such participant chooses to withdraw from the Purchase Plan (as described below).

Purchasing Stock

A participant may designate that the Corporation use payroll deductions to purchase stock at a rate that is at least 1% but not more than 20% of such participant's annual compensation. A participant may not change the amount of pay that is deducted to purchase shares under the Purchase Plan (other than to withdraw entirely, as set forth below) during an offering period, but can elect to have changes be effective at the beginning of the following offering period.

On the last day of each fiscal quarter (i.e., March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31) payroll deductions accumulated during the offering period are applied automatically to purchase common stock. The price of each share of common stock purchased under the Purchase Plan will initially be equal to the lesser of 85% of its fair market value on the offering date and 85% of its fair market value on the purchase date. The number of shares purchased is determined by dividing the payroll deductions for the offering period by the price paid by the participant. All shares purchased are credited to the participant and registered in the name of the participant in an account maintained for such participant by Computershare, as custodian under the Purchase Plan. All shares

------

purchased under the Purchase Plan are automatically enrolled in the Corporation's Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan, if any, and dividends declared on such shares will be reinvested in additional shares of common stock in accordance therewith.

Limitations

The Purchase Plan does not permit a participant to purchase shares under the Purchase Plan if the participant would own common stock possessing 5% or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of the Corporation's stock. The Purchase Plan also does not permit a participant to purchase common stock with a fair market value in excess of $25,000 in any one calendar year. These limitations are to ensure, in part, that the Purchase Plan complies with Code requirements.

A participant does not have the rights of a shareholder until the participant actually purchases the shares of common stock, with limited exceptions in the case of his or her death. A participant may not transfer the right to purchase stock under the Purchase Plan.

Adjustment of Shares Available for Issuance

If our shareholders approve this proposal, a total of 500,000 shares of common stock will be reserved for issuance under the Purchase Plan.

If the events of a stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, spin-off, or similar event affecting the common stock, the Board will appropriately adjust the number of shares available under the Purchase Plan.

Written Statements

Each participant will be provided with an annual written statement indicating the number of shares of stock purchased under the Purchase Plan for such year, the aggregate number of shares accumulated under the Purchase Plan, and other relevant information.

Withdrawing from the Purchase Plan

Subject to certain limitations, a participant may stop participating in the Purchase Plan at any time by providing notice in the form specified by the Corporation. If a participant withdraws from the Purchase Plan, participation will end effective upon the next pay period following the Corporation's receipt of notice of withdrawal. If an employee that has previously withdrawn from the Purchase Plan wishes to resume participation, the employee must re-enroll effective beginning the next quarterly offering period. If a participant terminates employment with the Corporation at any time, participation in the Purchase Plan automatically terminates.

Corporate Transactions

In the event of a merger or other corporate transaction (as defined in the Purchase Plan), each outstanding option under the Purchase Plan will be assumed or an equivalent option will be substituted by the successor Corporation or a parent or subsidiary of such successor Corporation. In the event the successor Corporation refuses to assume or substitute for the options, the offering period will be shortened by setting a new purchase date and will end on the new purchase date. The new purchase date will be prior to the proposed merger or other qualifying transaction. The Corporation will notify each participant in writing prior to the new purchase date that the purchase date for the participant's option has been changed to the new purchase date and that the participant's option will be exercised automatically on the new purchase date unless the participant withdraws from the Purchase Plan prior to such date.

------

Termination and Amendments

The Board has the power to amend, suspend or terminate the Purchase Plan at any time, except that the Board may not, without first obtaining shareholder approval, increase the number of shares reserved under the Purchase Plan, other than as otherwise provided therein.

Certain Federal Income Tax Information

The following brief summary of the effect of federal income taxation upon the participant and the Corporation with respect to the shares purchased under the Purchase Plan does not purport to be complete, and does not discuss the tax consequences of a participant's death or the income tax laws of any state or foreign country in which the participant may reside.

The Purchase Plan, and the right of participants to make purchases thereunder, is intended to qualify under the provisions of Sections 421 and 423 of the Code. Under these provisions, no income will be taxable to a participant until the shares purchased under the Purchase Plan are sold or otherwise disposed of. Upon sale or other disposition of the shares, the participant will generally be subject to tax in an amount that depends upon the holding period. If the shares are sold or otherwise disposed of more than two years from the first day of the applicable offering period and one year from the applicable date of purchase, the participant will recognize ordinary income measured as the lesser of (a) the excess of the fair market value of the shares at the time of such sale or disposition over the purchase price, or (b) the excess of the fair market value of the shares at the time the option was granted over the purchase price. Any additional gain will be treated as long-term capital gain. If the shares are sold or otherwise disposed of before the expiration of these holding periods, the participant will recognize ordinary income generally measured as the excess of the fair market value of the shares on the date of the shares are purchased over the purchase price. Any additional gain or loss on such sale or disposition will be long-term or short-term capital gain or loss, depending on how long the shares have been held from the date of purchase. The Corporation generally is not entitled to a deduction for amounts taxed as ordinary income or capital gain to a participant except to the extent of ordinary income recognized by participants upon a sale or disposition of shares prior to the expiration of the holding periods described above.

Number of Shares Granted to Employees

Participation in the Purchase Plan is voluntary and is dependent on each eligible employee's election to participate and his or her determination as to the level of payroll deductions. Accordingly, future purchases under the Purchase Plan are not determinable. No purchases have been made under the Purchase Plan since its adoption by the Board.

Vote Required for Approval

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting is necessary to approve the Purchase Plan. Abstentions and broker non-votes, if any, will have no effect on whether or not this proposal is approved.

Registration with the SEC

If the Purchase Plan is approved by our shareholders, we intend to file a Registration Statement on Form S-8 relating to the Purchase Plan with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Act as soon as is practicable after such approval.

Recommendation of the Board

The Board unanimously recommends that the shareholders vote FOR approval of the Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. 2023 Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

---

No determination has been made as to what action the Audit Committee would take if shareholders do not ratify the appointment. In the event that shareholders do not ratify the appointment of RSM US LLP, the Audit Committee would take a number of factors into account in determining its course of action, including its evaluation of the services provided by RSM US LLP and the remaining term of the Corporation's engagement of RSM US LLP. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may select a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Corporation.

Representatives of RSM US LLP are expected to be present at the annual meeting. They will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so, and are expected to be available to respond to appropriate shareholder questions.

## AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT
The Board adopted a written charter for the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee Charter is available under *Governance Documents* in the *Corporate Information* section under the *Investors* link on the Corporation's website at <u>www.midpennbank.com.</u> As required by the charter, the Audit Committee, in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities regarding the audit process:

• reviewed and discussed the fiscal year 2022 audited financial statements, and the management report on internal controls over financial reporting, with both management and the independent registered public accounting firm, RSM US LLP;

• discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm, the matters required to be discussed by PCAOB Audit Standard 1301 (Communications with Audit Committees) as issued by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board; and

Based upon the review and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, be included in the Corporation's annual report and filed with the SEC.

Mid Penn's independent registered public accounting firm for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020 was RSM US LLP. The Audit Committee of the Board has appointed RSM US LLP as its independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2023.

Aggregate fees billed to the Corporation and the Bank by RSM US LLP for 2022 and 2021, the independent registered public accountants, for professional services rendered are as follows:

This report of the Audit Committee shall not be deemed incorporated by reference by any general statement incorporating by reference this proxy statement into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, except to the extent that the Corporation specifically incorporates this information by reference, and shall not otherwise be deemed filed under such Acts.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

------

Audit Committee financial experts within the meaning of rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC and Nasdaq listing standards, and the Board has determined that they have accounting and related financial management expertise to satisfy the requirements of the SEC and Nasdaq.

The Audit Committee Charter requires the Audit Committee to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the independent registered public accountants. These services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other permissible services. Under the charter, pre-approval will generally be provided for up to one year, and any pre-approval is detailed as to the particular service or category of services. In addition, the Audit Committee may also pre-approve particular services on a case-by-case basis. Prior to approval, the Committee verifies with the auditor the nature of the proposed services to ensure independence will not be compromised. Under the charter, a de minimis exception is provided whereby pre-approval may be waived for non-audit services that meet all of the following requirements:

• the aggregate amount of all such services is not more than five percent of the total amount of fees paid to the independent auditor during the year in which the services are provided;

• such services were not recognized as non-audit services by the Corporation at the time of the engagement; and

• the services are promptly brought to the attention of the Audit Committee and approved prior to completion of the audit.

RSM US LLP advised us that it is independent with respect to the Corporation, within the meaning of the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and in compliance with Rule 3520 of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. Current committee membership is displayed in the following table.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

## DELINQUENT SECTION 16(a) REPORTS
The officers and directors of the Corporation and beneficial owners of greater than 10% of the common stock are required to file reports on Forms 3, 4 and 5 with the SEC disclosing beneficial ownership and changes in beneficial ownership of Corporation common stock. SEC rules require disclosure in the Corporation's Proxy Statement of the failure of an officer, director or 10% beneficial owner of the common stock to file a Form 3, 4, or 5 on a timely basis. Based on the Corporation's review of ownership reports, no officer or director failed to file ownership reports on a timely basis for the year ended December 31, 2022, except that Director Theodore W. Mowery made one late filing on August 9, 2022 for a purchase that occurred on August 4, 2022. The Corporation has determined that this late filing was due to an administrative oversight.

## PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE
In accordance with the SEC's new disclosure requirements regarding pay versus performance ("PVP"), the following information is being provided to illustrate the relationship between Compensation Actually Paid ("CAP") to an executive (as defined by the SEC), and certain financial performance measures of the Corporation.

The Compensation Committee makes its compensation decisions independent of the SEC's PVP disclosure requirements. For further information on how the Corporation aligns executive compensation with the Corporation's financial performance, see "Compensation Discussion & Analysis" on page 23 above.

Pay Versus Performance Table

The following table sets forth information concerning the compensation of our principal executive officer ("PEO") and other named executive officers ("NEOs") for each of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, and our financial performance for each such fiscal year, as computed in accordance with SEC rules, followed by a table reconciling the compensation disclosed in the Summary Compensation Table ("SCT") and the compensation required to be disclosed as CAP:

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Tabular List of Performance Measures

The following table presents an unranked list of financial performance measures the Compensation Committee considers to be most important in determining the compensation of the Corporation's named executive officers. As described in greater detail in the section titled "Compensation Discussion & Analysis" beginning on page 23 above, the Corporation's objective in designing its compensation program is to align executive compensation with the Corporation's long-term growth and sustained earnings objectives of the Corporation's shareholders, while attracting, retaining and motivating highly-qualified executives, and balancing both the risks and rewards of the program. Because the Corporation's compensation program generally seeks to incentivize long-term performance, the Compensation Committee does not specifically seek to align the Corporation's performance measures with Compensation Actually Paid (as defined by SEC rules) for a particular year.

|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| Q: | Who is entitled to vote at the annual meeting? | A: | Shareholders of record, sometimes referred to as a "registered shareholder," as of the close of business on March 1, 2023, which is referred to as the "record date," are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the annual meeting. |
| Q: | How many votes do I have? | A: | Each outstanding share of common stock is entitled to one vote. Cumulative voting rights do not exist with respect to the election of directors. |
| Q: | How do I vote my shares? | A: | Shareholders of record may vote their shares by completing and returning the enclosed proxy card, by Internet, by telephone or by voting virtually at the annual meeting.<br>Voting by Proxy. Shareholders of record may vote their shares by completing and returning the enclosed proxy card. Your proxy will be voted in accordance with your instructions. If you submit a properly executed and dated proxy, but do not specify a choice on one of the proposals described in this proxy statement, your proxy will be voted in favor of that proposal.<br>Voting by Internet. If you are a registered shareholder, you may vote electronically through the Internet by following the instructions included on your proxy card. If your shares are registered in the name of a broker or other nominee, you may be able to vote via the Internet. If so, the voting form your nominee sends you will provide Internet instructions.<br>Voting by Phone. If you are a registered shareholder, you may vote by phone by calling (866) 883-0222. Remember to have your proxy card in hand when you call, and then follow the instructions.<br>Voting Virtually at the Annual Meeting. Shareholders of record may vote at the virtual meeting if they register at www.proxydocs.com/MPB by 12:00 p.m. EDT on May 8, 2023, attend the virtual meeting on May 9, 2023 at 10:00 a.m. EDT, and then click on the "Vote" link. Information regarding how to virtually attend the annual meeting is included below and on the proxy card. If your shares are registered in the name of a broker or other nominee and you wish to vote at the meeting, you may need to obtain a legal proxy from your bank or brokerage firm. Please consult the voting form sent to you by your bank or broker to determine how to obtain a legal proxy in order to vote at the annual meeting. |
| Q: | If my shares are held in street name by a broker, will my broker automatically vote my shares? | A: | If your shares are held in an account at a bank, brokerage firm, broker-dealer or other similar organization, then you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name. In that case, you will have received these proxy materials from the organization holding your account and, as a beneficial owner, you have the right to instruct your broker, bank, trustee, or nominee how to vote the shares held in your account. If no voting instructions are given, your broker or nominee has discretionary authority to vote your shares on your behalf on routine matters. A "broker non-vote" results on a matter when your broker or nominee returns a proxy, but does not vote on a particular proposal because it does not have discretionary authority to vote on that proposal and has not received voting instructions from you. We believe that your broker or nominee only has discretionary voting power with respect to the proposal regarding the ratification of the selection of the independent registered public accounting firm. If you wish to attend and vote virtually at the annual meeting, please visit <u>www.proxydocs.com/MPB</u>, and follow the instructions. You may be instructed to obtain a legal proxy from your bank, broker-dealer, or other similar organization and to submit a copy in advance of the meeting.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS REGARDING THE ANNUAL MEETING

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| Q: | What constitutes a quorum for the annual meeting? | A: | As of the record date, 15,886,143 shares of Corporation common stock were outstanding, each of which will be entitled to one vote at the meeting. Under Mid Penn's Bylaws, the presence, in person or by proxy, of shareholders entitled to cast at least a majority of the votes that all shareholders are entitled to cast constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business at the annual meeting. If you vote by proxy, your shares will be included for determining the presence of a quorum. Abstentions are also included for determining the presence of a quorum. If you fail to submit a proxy prior to the annual meeting or to vote at the meeting, your shares will not be counted towards a quorum. |
| Q: | Assuming the presence of a quorum, what is the vote required to approve the matters to be considered at the annual meeting? | A: | The three candidates for director receiving the highest number of votes cast by shareholders, even if less than a majority, will be elected. Consequently, any shares not voted (whether by abstention, broker non-vote or otherwise) will not be included in determining which nominees received the highest number of votes. A properly executed proxy that withholds authority with respect to the election of one or more directors will not be voted with respect to the director or directors indicated, although it will be counted for purposes of determining whether there is a quorum.<br>Approval of each of the other proposals will require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the votes cast at the annual meeting. Under Pennsylvania law, abstentions are not considered "votes cast" and, accordingly, will have no effect on such other proposals. |
| Q: | How can I attend the annual meeting? | A: | The annual meeting will be a completely virtual meeting of shareholders, which will be conducted exclusively by webcast. You are entitled to participate in the annual meeting only if you were a shareholder as of the close of business on March 1, 2023, the record date. No physical meeting will be held.<br>In order to attend the annual meeting, you must register at <u>www.proxydocs.com/MPB</u> by 12:00 p.m. EDT on May 8, 2023.

| Q: | Can I change my vote? | A: | Yes. You may revoke any proxy at any time before it is voted by (1) signing and returning a proxy card with a later date (if you submitted your proxy by Internet or by telephone, you can vote again by Internet or telephone), (2) delivering a written revocation letter to the Corporate Secretary, or (3) virtually attending the annual meeting, notifying the Corporate Secretary and voting at the annual meeting. Mid Penn's Corporate Secretary's mailing address is Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc., 2407 Park Drive, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania 17110, Attention: Corporate Secretary.<br>Any shareholder entitled to vote virtually at the annual meeting may vote regardless of whether a proxy has been previously given, and such vote will revoke any previous proxy, but the mere virtual presence (without notifying Mid Penn's Corporate Secretary) of a shareholder at the annual meeting will not constitute revocation of a previously given proxy. A shareholder may change his or her vote up and until the time that votes are counted but not thereafter. |
| Q: | How will proxies be solicited and who will bear the cost of soliciting votes for the annual meeting? | A: | The Corporation's directors, officers and Bank employees may solicit proxies in person or by telephone, facsimile, email or other similar means without additional compensation. The Corporation will pay the cost of preparing, assembling, printing, mailing and soliciting proxies and any additional material that the Corporation sends to its shareholders. The Corporation will make arrangements with brokerage firms and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to forward proxy solicitation materials to the beneficial owners of shares held by these entities. The Corporation will, upon request, reimburse these third parties for their reasonable expenses in forwarding solicitation material to the beneficial owners of shares. |
| Q: | What if I receive more than one proxy? | A: | Your shares are probably registered differently or are in more than one account. Vote all proxies you receive to ensure that all your shares are voted. If you have all of your accounts registered in the same name and address, you should only receive one set of proxy materials in future years. If you are receiving multiple statements and reports and wish to receive only one, please notify your broker if your shares are held in a brokerage account or our transfer agent, Computershare at (800) 368-5948, if you directly hold registered shares. |
| Q: | How may I submit a question for the annual meeting? | A: | In order for management to thoroughly answer any questions that you may have about the Corporation or our annual meeting materials, including financial statements, we ask that you submit your questions prior to the Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

1.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Committee. The Plan shall be administered and interpreted by a committee (the "Committee"), which shall consist of either (i) the board of directors of the Company (the "Board") or (ii) two or more directors appointed by the Board, all of whom (unless the Board determines otherwise) shall be "non-employee directors" of the Board as defined under Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). The Board, in its discretion, may appoint separate committees to administer the Plan with respect to a designated portion of participants (e.g., participants subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act). If the Board does not appoint a committee to administer all or any portion of the Plan, then the Board shall be the Committee.

1.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Determinations with respect to Grants. The Committee shall have the sole authority to (i) determine the individuals to whom Grants (as defined in Section 2.1) shall be made under the Plan, (ii) determine the type, size and terms of the Grants to be made to each such individual, (iii) determine the time when the Grants will be made and the duration of any applicable exercise or restriction period, including the criteria for vesting and the acceleration of vesting, and (iv) deal with any other matters arising under the Plan. The Committee may, if it so desires, base any of the foregoing determinations upon the recommendations of management of the Company.

1.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Action by the Committee. A majority of the Committee shall constitute a quorum thereof, and the actions of a majority of the Committee at a meeting at which a quorum is present, or actions unanimously approved in writing by all members of the Committee, shall be actions of the Committee.

1.4&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Delegation. The Committee may appoint one of its members to be chair and any person, whether or not a member of the Committee, to be its secretary or agent. Furthermore, the Committee may delegate any ministerial duties in connection with the Plan to one or more officers of the Company.

1.5&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Interpretation of Plan. The Committee shall have full power and authority to administer and interpret the Plan, to make factual determinations and to adopt or amend such rules, regulations, agreements and instruments for implementing the Plan and for the conduct of its business as it deems necessary or advisable, to waive requirements relating to formalities or other matters that do not modify the substance of rights of Grantees (as defined in Section 4.2) or constitute a material amendment of the Plan, to correct any defect or supply any omission of the Plan or any Grant Instrument (as defined in Section 2.2) and to reconcile any inconsistencies in the Plan or any Grant Instrument. The Committee's interpretations of the Plan and all determinations made or actions taken by the Committee pursuant to the powers vested in it hereunder shall be conclusive and binding on all persons having any interests in the Plan or in any awards granted hereunder. All powers of the Committee shall be exercised in its sole discretion, in the best interest of the Company and in keeping with the objectives of the Plan and need not be uniform as to similarly situated individuals.

1.6&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;No Liability. No member of the Committee shall be liable for any act or omission (whether or not negligent) taken or omitted in good faith, or for the good faith exercise of any authority or discretion granted in the Plan to the Committee, or for any act or omission of any other member of the Committee.

Except for the express obligations of the Company under the Plan and under Grants (as defined in Section 2.1) in accordance with the provisions of the Plan, the Company shall have no liability with respect to any Grant, or to any Grantee or any transferee of shares of Company Stock (as defined in Section 3.1) from any Grantee, including, but not limited to, any tax liability, capital losses, or other costs or losses incurred by any Grantee, or any such transferee.

2.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Grant Instruments. All Grants shall be subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and to those other terms and conditions consistent with the Plan as the Committee deems appropriate. Each Grant shall be evidenced by a written instrument (the "Grant Instrument") specifying the number of shares of Company Stock to which it relates and containing such other terms and conditions as the Committee shall approve that are not inconsistent with the Plan. Grants under a particular section of the Plan need not be uniform as among the grantees. The Committee shall have the authority to waive any condition of an outstanding Grant or amend an outstanding Grant, provided that an amendment of an existing Grant may not be made without the consent of the Grantee if such amendment would have an adverse effect on the rights of the Grantee.

Article 3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shares Subject to the Plan

3.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Number of Shares. The aggregate number of shares of the common stock of the Company, par value $1.00 per share (the "Company Stock"), that may be issued under the Plan is 350,000 shares, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 3.2 of the Plan. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the maximum aggregate number of shares of Company Stock that shall be subject to Grants made under the Plan to any one individual during any calendar year shall be 50,000.

If and to the extent Grants under the Plan terminate, expire, or are cancelled, forfeited, exchanged or surrendered without Company Stock being delivered pursuant thereto, or if any shares of Restricted Stock (as defined in Section 7.1) are forfeited, the shares subject to such Grants, including forfeited shares, shall again be available for purposes of the Plan.

3.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Anti-Dilution Adjustments. If there is any change in the number or kind of shares of Company Stock outstanding by reason of a stock dividend, recapitalization, stock split, or combination or exchange of shares, or a merger, reorganization or consolidation in which the Company is the surviving corporation, or a reclassification or by reason of any other extraordinary or unusual events affecting the outstanding Company Stock as a class without the Company's receipt of consideration, or if the value of outstanding shares of Company Stock is substantially reduced due to the Company's payment of an extraordinary dividend or distribution, the kind of shares, the maximum number of shares of Company Stock available for Grants, the maximum number of shares of Company Stock that may be subject to Grants to any one individual under the Plan in any calendar year, the number of shares covered by outstanding Grants, and the price per share or the applicable fair market value of such Grants shall be equitably adjusted by the Committee to reflect any increase or decrease in the number or kind of issued shares of Company Stock to preclude the enlargement or dilution of rights and benefits under such Grants; provided, however, that any fractional shares resulting from such adjustment shall be eliminated by rounding any portion of a share equal to .500 or greater up, and any portion of a share equal to or less than .500 down, in each case to the nearest whole number. For purposes of this Section 3.2, "shares of Company Stock" and "shares" include referenced shares with respect to SARs (as defined in Section 6.1), Deferred Stock Units (as defined in Section 7.2.1) and Performance Shares (as defined in Section 8.10). The adjustments determined by the Committee shall be final, binding and conclusive. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment shall be authorized or made pursuant to this Section to the extent that such authority or adjustment would cause any incentive stock option to fail to comply with Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").

Subject to Article 15, the Grantee shall pay the option price and the amount of withholding tax due, if any, at the time of exercise. Shares of Company Stock shall not be issued or transferred upon exercise of a Stock Option until the option price is fully paid and any required withholding obligations are satisfied.

5.8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Limits on Incentive Stock Options.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.8.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Each Incentive Stock Option shall provide that, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Company Stock on the date of the grant with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by a Grantee during any calendar year under the Plan or any other stock option plan of the Company exceeds $100,000, then such option as to the excess shall be treated as a Nonqualified Stock Option.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.8.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;An Incentive Stock Option shall not be granted to any participant who is not an Employee of the Company or any "subsidiary" within the meaning of Section 424(f) of the Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.8.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;An Incentive Stock Option shall not be granted to any Employee who, at the time of grant, owns stock possessing more than 10 percent of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any "parent" or "subsidiary" of the Company within the meaning of Section 424(e) and (f) of the Code, unless the option price per share is not less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of Company Stock on the date of grant and the option exercise period is not more than five years from the date of grant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.8.4&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;No Incentive Stock Option granted under this Plan is transferable expect by will or the laws of descent and distribution and is exercisable during the Grantee's lifetime only by the Grantee.

5.9&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Notice of Disposition; Withholding; Escrow. A Grantee of an Incentive Stock Option shall immediately notify the Company in writing of any sale, transfer, assignment or other disposition (or action constituting a disqualifying disposition within the meaning of Section 421 of the Code) of any shares of Company Stock acquired through exercise of an Incentive Stock Option, within two (2) years after the grant of such Incentive Stock Option or within one (1) year after the acquisition of such shares, setting forth the date and manner of disposition, the number of shares disposed of and the price at which such shares were disposed of. The Company shall be entitled to withhold from any compensation or other payments then or thereafter due to the Grantee such amounts as may be necessary to satisfy any withholding requirements of Federal (including payroll taxes) or state law or regulation and, further, to collect from the Grantee any additional amounts which may be required for such purpose. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, require shares of Company Stock acquired by an Optionee upon exercise of an Incentive Stock Option to be held in an escrow arrangement for the purpose of enabling compliance with the provisions of this Section 5.9.

5.10&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;No ISO Warranty. The Company makes no warranty that Stock Options granted under this Plan that are intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options will, in fact, so qualify or that any qualification will not be lost in the future, including by acts or omissions of the Company or the Committee or by other cause. If a Stock Option granted hereunder for any reason fails for whatever reason to comply with the provisions of Section 422 of the Code, and such failure is not or cannot be cured, such Option shall be a Nonqualified Stock Option.

2023 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

5.11&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;No Repricing; No Automatic Option Grants (Reloads). Without prior approval of the shareholders, the Company may not:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cancel a previously granted Stock Option in exchange for cash or a replacement Grant with a lower (or no) exercise price;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Provide for any automatic grant of a new Stock Option upon a Grantee's exercise of any Stock Option granted under the Plan; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Amend a Stock Option to lower the exercise price, except for adjustments required or otherwise made under Section 3.2 or 10.2, or take any other action that could constitute a repricing.

Article 6.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Stock Appreciation Rights

6.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;General Requirements. The Committee may grant stock appreciation rights ("SARs") to any Grantee (i) independently or (ii) in tandem with, any Stock Option, for all or a portion of the applicable Stock Option. Tandem SARs may be granted, either at the time the Stock Option is granted or at any time thereafter while the Stock Option remains outstanding; provided, however, that in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, such tandem rights may be granted only at the time of the Grant of such Stock Option. Unless the Committee determines otherwise, the base price of each SAR shall be equal to the greater of (i) the exercise price of the related Stock Option, if any, or (ii) the Fair Market Value of a share of Company Stock as of the date of grant of such SAR.

6.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Exercise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.2.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;No SAR shall be exercisable more than 10 years after the date of its grant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.2.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A SAR not granted in tandem with a Stock Option will become exercisable at such time or times, and on such terms and conditions, as the Committee shall specify. Unless the Committee provides otherwise in the Grant Instrument, the provisions of Article 5 applicable to Nonqualified Stock Options including, without limitation, those related to exercise upon termination of employment or service, shall be applicable to non-tandem SARs; provided, however, that all such SARs shall become immediately exercisable upon the occurrence of a Change of Control or Ownership of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.2.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A SAR granted in tandem with a Stock Option will be exercisable only at such time or times, and to the extent, that the related Stock Option is exercisable and will be exercisable only in accordance with the exercise procedure for the related Stock Option. Upon the exercise of a Stock Option, the SARs relating to the Company Stock covered by the related Stock Option shall terminate. Upon the exercise of SARs, the related Stock Option shall terminate to the extent of an equal number of shares of Company Stock.

6.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Value of SARs. Upon a Grantee's exercise of some or all of the Grantee's SARs, the Grantee shall receive in settlement of such SARs an amount equal to the value of the stock appreciation for the number of SARs exercised, payable in cash, Company Stock or a combination thereof. The stock appreciation for a SAR is the difference between the base price of the SAR as described in Section 6.1 and the Fair Market Value of the underlying Company Stock on the date of exercise of such SAR.

6.4&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Form of Payment. Upon exercise of an SAR, payment shall be made in the form of shares of Company Stock, valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise, in cash, or in a combination thereof, as the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine. Payment by the Company of SARs shall be subject to withholding of applicable taxes in accordance with Article 14.

Article 7.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Restricted Stock and Deferred Stock Units

7.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Restricted Stock. The Committee may issue or transfer shares of Company Stock to an eligible participant under a Grant ("Restricted Stock"), upon such terms, conditions and restrictions as the Committee deems appropriate. The following provisions are applicable to Grants of Restricted Stock:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.1.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Restricted Stock may be issued for cash consideration or for no cash consideration, at the sole discretion of the Committee. The Committee shall establish conditions under which restrictions, if any, on the

transfer of shares of Restricted Stock shall lapse over a period of time or according to such other criteria as the Committee deems appropriate. The period of time during which the Restricted Stock will remain subject to restrictions will be designated in the Grant Instrument as the "Restriction Period."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.1.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If the Grantee ceases to be employed by the Company or, in the case of a Non-Employee Director, to serve or be engaged as such, during a period designated in the Grant Instrument as the Restriction Period, or if other specified conditions are not met, the Grant of Restricted Stock shall terminate as to all shares covered by the Grant as to which restrictions on transfer have not lapsed and those shares of Restricted Stock must be immediately returned to the Company. The Committee may, however, in its sole discretion, provide for complete or partial exceptions to this requirement as it deems appropriate, including, without limitation, upon death, Disability or Retirement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.1.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During the Restriction Period, a Grantee may not sell, assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of the shares of Restricted Stock to which such Restriction Period applies except to a Successor Grantee under Article 10. Each certificate for a share of Restricted Stock shall contain a legend giving appropriate notice of the restrictions. The Grantee shall be entitled to have the legend removed from the stock certificate or certificates covering any of the shares subject to restrictions when all restrictions on such Restricted Stock have lapsed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.1.4&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During the Restriction Period, unless the Committee determines otherwise, (i) the Grantee shall have the right to vote shares of Restricted Stock, and (ii) dividend equivalent shares will accrue on the shares of Restricted Stock, as well as any dividend equivalent shares accrued pursuant to this Section 7.1.4, representing the right to receive additional shares of Company Stock, or payment in cash of the Fair Market Value thereof, credited as of the applicable dividend payment date, subject to any restrictions deemed appropriate by the Committee. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee, shares of Company Stock shall be issued or payment in cash of the Fair Market Value thereof shall be made in payment of dividend equivalent shares on the date when all of the restrictions shall have lapsed on the Restricted Stock as to which such dividend equivalent shares were accrued. The Grantee shall have the right, subject to any restrictions then existing as to the Restricted Stock, to receive the proceeds of the Restricted Stock in any stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization or other change in the capital structure of the Company, which proceeds shall automatically and without need for any other action become Restricted Stock and be delivered as provided in Article 16.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.1.5&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Except as provided by Article 16, all restrictions imposed on Restricted Stock shall lapse upon the expiration of the applicable Restriction Period and the satisfaction of any conditions imposed by the Committee. The Committee may determine, as to any or all Restricted Stock, that all the restrictions shall lapse without regard to any Restriction Period. All restrictions on all Restricted Stock shall automatically and immediately lapse upon a Change of Control or Ownership.

7.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Deferred Stock Units.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.2.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Committee may grant a participant the right to receive (i) one or more shares of Company Stock to be delivered in the future, or (ii) a cash payment equal to the Fair Market Value of one or more shares of Company Stock as of a date in the future (a "Deferred Stock Unit"), as the Committee may determine. Delivery of the Company Stock or payment of the applicable cash amount, as the case may be, will take place at such time or times, and on such terms and conditions, as the Committee may determine, as set forth in the Grant Instrument. The Committee may provide at the time of the grant of a Deferred Stock Unit that the stock to be delivered will be Restricted Stock pursuant to Section 7.1. The time of delivery of the Company Stock or payment of the applicable cash amount will automatically accelerate to the date of a Change of Control or Ownership.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.2.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Grantees of Deferred Stock Units shall have no voting rights with respect to shares of Company Stock underlying the Deferred Stock Units unless and until such shares are reflected as issued and outstanding shares on the Company's stock ledger and, until such time, may not sell, assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of Deferred Stock Units or the underlying shares of Company Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.2.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Unless other provided by the Committee, shares of Company Stock underlying Deferred Stock Units, as well as any dividend equivalent shares accrued pursuant to this Section 7.2.3 shall, until paid or distributed to a Grantee, accrue dividend equivalent shares, which shall be credited as of the applicable dividend payment

date. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee, shares of Company Stock shall be issued or payment in cash of the Fair Market Value thereof shall be made in payment and satisfaction of dividend equivalent shares on the date when the Deferred Stock Units as to which such dividend equivalent shares are accrued are paid or shares of Company Stock are distributed in satisfaction thereof.

7.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tax Withholdings. Delivery of Company Stock pursuant to this Article 7 shall be subject to withholding of applicable taxes in accordance with Article 15.

Article 8.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Performance Shares

8.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Grant. The Committee may grant Performance Shares to such participants as it may select in its sole discretion, on such terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine, in its discretion, as expressly set forth in, or as required by, this Plan and the Grant Instrument.

8.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Performance Goals. The Committee shall set Performance Goals which, depending on the extent to which they are met during a Performance Period, will determine the number of Performance Shares that will be delivered to the Recipient at the end of the Performance Period. The Performance Goals shall be set at threshold, target and maximum performance levels, with the number of Performance Shares to be delivered tied to the degree of attainment of the various performance levels under the various Performance Goals during the Performance Period. No payment shall be made with respect to a Performance Share if the threshold performance level is not attained.

8.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Beneficial Ownership. The Grantee of any Performance Shares shall not have any beneficial ownership in any Performance Shares subject to such Grant or any shares of Company Stock underlying such Performance Shares unless and until such shares are reflected as issued and outstanding on the Company's stock ledger and, until such time, may not sell, assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of Performance Shares or any shares underlying Performance Shares.

8.4&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Determination of Achievement of Performance Goals. The Committee shall, promptly after the date on which the necessary financial, individual or other information for a particular Performance Period becomes available, determine and certify the degree to which each of the Performance Goals have been attained.

8.5&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Payment of Performance Shares. After the applicable Performance Period has ended, the Grantee of Performance Shares shall be entitled to payment based on the performance level attained with respect to the Performance Goals applicable to the Grant of Performance Shares. Unless deferred in accordance with Section 8.9, Performance Shares shall be settled as soon as practicable after the Committee determines and certifies the degree of attainment of Performance Goals for the Performance Period. The Committee shall have the discretion and authority to make adjustments to any Grant of Performance Shares in circumstances where, during the Performance Period: (a) a Grantee leaves the Company or any subsidiary and is subsequently rehired; (b) a Grantee transfers between positions with different Performance Goals; (c) a Grantee transfers to a position not eligible to participate in the Grant; (d) a Grantee becomes eligible, or ceases to be eligible, for another incentive offered by the Company or any subsidiary; (e) a Grantee is on a leave of absence; and (f) similar circumstances deemed appropriate by the Committee, consistent with the purpose and terms of this Plan, provided, however, that the Company shall not be authorized to increase the amount of any Grant of Performance Shares to a Covered Employee that would otherwise be payable if the amount was intended to be a Qualified Performance Based Award.

8.6&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Payments to Recipients. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Grant Instrument, payment to a Grantee with respect to a Grant of Performance Shares may be made (a) in shares of Company Stock, (b) in cash in an amount equal to the Performance Shares' Fair Market Value on the date the Performance Shares are settled, or (c) any combination of cash and shares of Company Stock, as the Committee shall determine at any time in its sole discretion.

8.7&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Limitation of Rights. A Grantee of a Grant of Performance Shares is not entitled to any rights as a holder of shares of Company Stock underlying Performance Shares (e.g. voting rights and dividend rights), prior to the receipt of such shares pursuant to the Plan. No dividend equivalent shares will be accrued with respect to Performance Shares.

8.8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Withholding. The Company may withhold in accordance with Article 15 any amounts necessary to collect any withholding taxes upon any taxable event relating to Performance Shares.

8.9&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Deferral of Delivery of Shares or Payout. At the time of a Grant of Performance Shares (or at such earlier or later time as the Committee determines to be appropriate in light of Code Section 409A) the Committee may permit the Grantee to elect to defer delivery of the shares of Company Stock underlying the Performance Shares, or payment of cash with respect to such Performance Shares, in accordance with such rules and procedures established by the Committee. Such rules and procedures shall take into account potential tax treatment under Code Section 409A.

8.10&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Definitions. For purposes of the Plan, the following terms shall have the indicated meanings:

"Covered Employee" has the meaning set forth in Code Section 162(m)(3).

"Performance Goals" means the pre-established objective performance goals established by the Committee for each Performance Period. The Performance Goals may be based upon the performance of the Company, of any subsidiary, or a division or unit thereof, or of an individual Grantee, or groups of Grantees, using one or more of the Performance Measures selected by the Committee. Separate Performance Goals may be established by the Committee for the Company or a subsidiary, or division or unit thereof, or an individual or groups of individuals, and different Performance Measures may be given different weights. The Performance Goals shall include one or more threshold Performance Goals under which no portion of the Performance Shares shall become vested, be transferred, retained, or the value of which is to be paid as provided by this Plan and the Grant Instrument, if the threshold goals or goals are not achieved.

"Performance Measures" means one or more of the following criteria, on which Performance Goals may be based, each a "Performance Measure": (a) return on equity, (b) return on assets, (c) revenues, (d) net income, (e) earnings per share, (f) net operating profit, (g) non-interest income growth, (h) economic profit, (i) loan growth, (j) deposit growth, (k) stockholder value added or economic value added, (l) stock price or total stockholder return, (m) return on investment, (n) non-interest income to total revenue ratio, (o) net interest margin, (p) net charge-off ratio, (q) reserve coverage of non-performing loans, (r) market share, (s) productivity ratios, (t) regulatory compliance, (u) satisfactory internal or external audits, (v) capital and expense management, (w) achievement of risk management objectives, (x) efficiency ratio, (y) the ratio of non-performing assets to total assets and (z) the ratio of non-performing loans to total loans. Performance Measures may be applied on a pre-tax or post-tax basis, and be based upon the performance of the Company, of any subsidiary, or a division or unit thereof, or of an individual Grantee or groups of Grantees.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Performance Measures may be applied on an absolute basis or in relation to a peer comparison group or index. The Committee may, at time of grant, in the case of a Grant intended to be a Qualified Performance Based Award and in the case of other Grants, at any time, provide that the Performance Goals for such Grant may include or exclude items to measure specific objectives, such as losses from discontinued operations, extraordinary gains or losses, the cumulative effect of accounting changes, acquisitions or divestitures, foreign exchange impacts and any unusual nonrecurring gain or loss.

"Performance Period" means that period established by the Committee during which the attainment of Performance Goals specified by the Company with respect to a Grant of Performance Shares is to be measured. A Performance Period may be a 12-month period or a longer or shorter period.

"Performance Share" means the right to receive a share of Company Stock or the Fair Market Value of a share of Company Stock, as the case may be, upon attainment of specified Performance Goals.

"Qualified Performance Based Award" means a Grant to a Covered Employee which is intended to provide "qualified performance-based compensation" within the meaning of Code Section 162(m). For any Performance Period for which a Grant is intended to be a Qualified Performance Based Award, Performance Goals shall be established by the Committee no later than 90 days after the beginning of the Performance Period to which the Performance Goals pertain and while the attainment of the Performance Goals is substantially uncertain, and in any event no later than the date 25% of the Performance Period has elapsed.

Article 9.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Minimum Vesting for Full-Value Awards

9.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Minimum Vesting Requirements. Except in the case of substitute awards or awards granted as an inducement to join the Company as a new employee to replace forfeited awards from a former employer, any "full-value" award (generally defined as an award, other than an Option or SAR, that is valued on the basis of Company Stock) granted under the Plan to an Employee will either (i) be subject to a minimum vesting period of three years (which may include graduated vesting within such three-year period), or one year if the vesting is based on performance criteria other than continued service, or (ii) be granted solely in exchange for foregoing cash compensation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Compensation Committee may permit acceleration of vesting of such awards in the event of the Grantee's death, Disability or Retirement, or upon a Change of Control or Ownership.

Article 10.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Transferability of Grants

10.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Limitation. During a Grantee's lifetime, only the Grantee may exercise rights under a Grant and Grants may not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any manner, by operation of law or otherwise, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or, with respect to Grants other than Incentive Stock Options, if permitted in any specific case by the Committee, in its sole discretion.

10.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Successor Grantee. When a Grantee dies, the representative or other person entitled to succeed to the rights of the Grantee may exercise such rights. A successor Grantee must furnish proof satisfactory to the Company of his or her right to receive the Grant under the Grantee's will or under the applicable laws of descent and distribution.

Article 11.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Change of Control or Ownership of the Company

11.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Change of Control or Ownership. As used herein, a "Change of Control or Ownership" shall be deemed to have occurred if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;any one person, or more than one person acting as a group (as determined in 26 CFR 1.409A-3(i)(5)(v)(B)), acquires ownership of Company Stock that, taken together with stock held by such person or group, constitutes more than 50% of the total voting power or total Fair Market Value of Company Stock then outstanding;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any one person, or more than one person acting as a group (as determined under 26 CFR 1.409A-3(i)(5)(v)(B)), acquires (or has acquired during the twelve-month period ending on the most recent acquisition by such person or group) ownership of Company Stock possessing 30% or more of the total voting power of Company Stock or (ii) a majority of the Company's Board of Directors is replaced during any twelve-month period by directors whose appointment or election is not endorsed by a majority of the Board of Directors prior to the date of election; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;any one person, or more than one person acting as a group (as determined under 26 CFR 1.409A-3(i)(5)(v)(B)) acquires (or has acquired during the twelve-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or group) assets from the Company that have a total gross fair market value equal to or more than 40% of the total gross fair market value of all of the assets of the Company immediately prior to such acquisition or acquisitions.

The existence of any of the foregoing events shall be determined based on objective standards and in complete accordance with the requirements of Code Section 409A and 26 CFR 1.409A-3(i)(5) so that any accelerated distribution resulting from a Change in Control or Ownership does not result in a violation of Code Section 409A.

11.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Business Combination Transaction. Any agreement to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party which provides for any merger, consolidation, share exchange, or similar transaction of the Company with or into another corporation or other association whereby the Company is not to be the surviving or parent corporation shall provide, without limitation, for the assumption of any outstanding Grants by the surviving corporation or association or its parent and all outstanding Grants shall be subject to such agreement. In any case where Grants are assumed by another corporation, appropriate equitable adjustments as to the number and kind of shares or other securities and the purchase or exercise price(s) shall be made.

15.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Withholding Rules and Procedures. The Committee is authorized to adopt rules, regulations or procedures related to tax withholding, including provision for the satisfaction of a tax withholding obligation, by the retention of shares of Stock to which the Grantee would otherwise be entitled pursuant to a Grant or by the Grantee's delivery of previously owned shares of Company Stock or other property.

9.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Transfer of Shares</u>. As soon as reasonably practicable after each Purchase Date, the Company will arrange for the delivery to each Participant of the shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of his or her option.

Upon termination of a Participant's employment for any reason, including death, disability or retirement, or a change in the Participant's employment status following which the Participant is no longer an Eligible Employee, which in either case occurs at least thirty (30) days before the Purchase Date, the Participant will be deemed to have withdrawn from the Plan and the payroll deductions in the Participant's notional account (that have not been used to purchase shares of Common Stock) shall be returned to the Participant, or in the case of the Participant's death, to the person(s) entitled to such amounts under Section 17, and the Participant's option shall be automatically terminated. If the Participant's termination of employment or change in status occurs within thirty (30) days before a Purchase Date, the accumulated payroll deductions shall be used to purchase shares on the Purchase Date.

shall make a pro rata allocation of the shares of Common Stock remaining available for purchase in as uniform a manner as practicable and as the Committee determines to be equitable.

14.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Transferability</u>. No payroll deductions credited to a Participant, nor any rights with respect to the exercise of an option or any rights to receive Common Stock hereunder may be assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of in any way (other than by will, the laws of descent and distribution, or as provided in Section 17 hereof) by the Participant. Any attempt to assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of such rights or amounts shall be without effect.

15.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Application of Funds</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Corporate Transaction</u>. In the event of a Corporate Transaction, each outstanding option will be assumed or an equivalent option substituted by the successor corporation or a parent or Subsidiary of such successor corporation. If the successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute the option, the Offering Period with respect to which the option relates will be shortened by setting a new Purchase Date on which the Offering Period will end. The new Purchase Date will occur before the date of the Corporate Transaction. Prior to the new Purchase Date, the Committee will provide each Participant with written notice, which may be electronic, of the new Purchase Date and that the Participant's option will be exercised automatically on such date, unless before such time, the Participant has withdrawn from the Offering in accordance with Section 10.
