Employee Stock Ownership Plan with 401(k) Provisions (the "KSOP"), and (iii) 7,367 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options granted prior to the date thereof under the DCB Financial Corp. Stock Option, which the Registrant assumed in connection with its acquisition of DCB Financial Corp, and, pursuant to Rule 415(c) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, covering an indeterminate amount of interests that may be offered or sold pursuant to the KSOP.
