CAMDEN NATIONAL CORPORATION
AMENDED AND RESTATED MANAGEMENT STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
 
Effective February 26, 2019

		
	I.
	INTRODUCTION

  
The purpose of the Camden National Corporation Amended and Restated Management Stock Purchase Plan (the “Plan”) is to provide equity incentive compensation to selected management employees of Camden National Corporation (the “Company”) and its Subsidiaries. Participants in the Plan may elect to receive Restricted Stock in lieu of a portion of their incentive payment. Restricted Stock is granted at a discount (as determined by the Compensation Committee) of the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the date of grant. So long as the participant remains employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for at least two years after the date of grant, his or her Restricted Stock will vest. This Plan is a component plan of the Camden National Corporation 2012 Equity and Incentive Plan (the “2012 Plan”). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Plan shall be subject to and governed by all the terms and conditions of the 2012 Plan, including the powers of the Committee set forth in Section 2(b) of the 2013 Plan. Capitalized terms in this Plan shall have the meaning specified in the 2012 Plan, unless a different meaning is specified herein.

		
	II.
	ADMINISTRATION

  
The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee shall have complete discretion and authority with respect to the Plan and its application, except as expressly limited herein. Determinations by the Committee shall be final and binding on all parties with respect to all matters relating to the Plan.
 
		
	III.
	ELIGIBILITY

 
Management employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries as designated by the Committee shall be eligible to participate in the Plan.
 
		
	IV.
	PARTICIPATION

 
A.                Restricted Stock. Participation in the Plan shall be based on the award of Restricted Stock.
 
B.                 Cost of Restricted Stock. The “Cost” of each share of Restricted Stock shall be at a discount (as determined by the Compensation Committee) of the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the date the Restricted Stock is awarded.
 
C.                 Election to Participate. Each participant who is an employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries may elect to receive an award of Restricted Stock under the Plan in lieu of either 10 percent or 20 percent of his or her incentive payment by completing a bonus election agreement (“Bonus Election Agreement”). The Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine which incentive or bonus payments are eligible for such election. The Bonus Election Agreement shall provide that the participant elects to receive Restricted Stock in lieu of 10 percent or 20 percent of any incentive payment. Bonus Election Agreements must be received by the Company before the deadline date established by the Committee in relation to the applicable incentive plan payout schedule. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may require certain officers to participate in the Plan.
 
D.                Award of Restricted Stock. On the dates that incentive payments are paid, the Company shall award, to each participant who has completed a Bonus Election Agreement and who is an employee of the Company, Restricted Stock as follows: Each such participant shall receive a whole number of Restricted Stock determined by dividing the amount (expressed in dollars) that is equal to 10 percent or 20 percent, as the case may be, of his or her gross incentive payment by the Cost of each share of Restricted Stock awarded on such date. No fractional shares of Restricted Stock will be credited and the amount equivalent in value to the fractional shares of Restricted Share will be paid out to the participant currently in cash. Shares of Restricted Stock are purchased with after-tax dollars (i.e., the entire bonus is considered taxable income).
  

		
	V.
	VESTING OF RESTRICTED STOCK

  
A.                Vesting. A participant shall be fully vested in each share of Restricted Stock two years after the date such share of Restricted Stock was awarded.

 
B.                 Settlement Prior to Vesting. If a participant’s employment with the Company terminates for any reason other than Retirement prior to vesting, except as otherwise provided in the participant’s employment agreement, if any, the participant’s non-vested Restricted Stock shall be forfeited back to the Company and he or she shall receive a cash payment equal to the lesser of (a) the Cost of such Restricted Stock or (b) an amount equal to the number of shares such Restricted Stock multiplied by the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of the participant’s termination of employment. Because the Restricted Stock was purchased on an after-tax basis, this cash payment will not be considered taxable income to the participant.
 
C.                 Special Provision. As soon as a participant in the Plan reaches age sixty-five (65) with at least five (5) years of consecutive service, all Restricted Stock purchased under this Plan that has not yet vested will vest immediately, and any new purchases of Restricted Stock made after qualifying for this Special Provision will be immediately vested upon the date of purchase (and constitute a taxable event unless, with respect to Restricted Stock purchased prior to the participant reaching age sixty-five (65) with at least five (5) years of consecutive service, the participant made a timely Section 83(b) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended).
 
		
	VI.
	DIVIDENDS

 
Dividends on Restricted Stock shall be paid currently to the participant, and, unless the participant makes a Section 83(b) election, such dividends are treated as ordinary income (i.e., added to W-2, Box 1 earnings) until such Restricted Stock become vested and distributed. If the participant makes a Section 83(b) election with respect to the Restricted Stock, any dividends paid on such shares will be taxed as dividends.Exhibit

Pursuant to the Camden National Corporation Amended and Restated Management Stock Purchase Plan (the “MSPP”), a component of the 2012 Equity and Incentive Plan, as amended through the date hereof (the “Plan”), Camden National Corporation (the “Company”) hereby grants a Restricted Stock Award (an “Award”) in lieu of a portion of their incentive payment to the Grantee named above. Upon acceptance of this Award, the Grantee shall purchase the number of shares of Common Stock, no par value per share (the “Restricted Stock”) at a discount (as determined by the Compensation Committee) of the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the date of grant (the “Cost”), of the Company specified above, subject to the restrictions and conditions set forth herein and in the Plan.
 
1.          Acceptance of Award. The Grantee shall have no rights with respect to this Award unless he or she shall have accepted this Award by signing and delivering to the Company a copy of this Award Agreement. Thereupon, the shares of Restricted Stock shall be issued in the name of the Grantee and the Grantee’s name shall be entered as the stockholder of record on the books of the Company. The Grantee shall have all the rights of a shareholder with respect to such Restricted Stock, subject, however, to the restrictions and conditions set forth in this Award Agreement and in the Plan.
 
2.          Certificates, Legend, Etc. Upon acceptance of this Award by the Grantee, certificates evidencing the shares of Restricted Stock granted herein shall be issued or evidence of book entry shall be made in the records of the Company in the name of the Grantee. Such certificates or notations on any book entry shall bear an appropriate legend, as determined by the Committee (as defined in Section 2 of the Plan) in its sole discretion, to the effect that such shares of Restricted Stock are subject to restrictions as set forth herein and in the Plan. Unless the Committee otherwise determines, any such certificates (if applicable) shall remain in the possession of the Company until the shares are vested as set forth herein and the Grantee shall deliver to the Company a stock power endorsed in blank.
 
3.          Voting/Dividends.  Dividends on Restricted Stock shall be paid currently to the participant, and, unless the participant makes a Section 83(b) election, such dividends are treated as ordinary income (i.e., added to W-2, Box 1 earnings) until such Restricted Stock becomes vested and distributed. If the participant makes a Section 83(b) election with respect to the Restricted Stock, any dividends paid on such shares will be taxed as dividends. Upon the issuance of the shares of Restricted Stock hereunder, the Grantee shall have the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to voting the shares of Restricted Stock.

5.          Vesting.

 (a)      Vesting of Restricted Stock. The restrictions and conditions in this Agreement shall lapse on the second anniversary of the Grant Date (the “Vesting Date”).  Subsequent to the Vesting Date, the shares of Common Stock on which all restrictions and conditions have lapsed shall no 

longer be deemed Restricted Stock. The Committee may at any time accelerate the vesting schedule specified in this Paragraph 5. 
(b)    Settlement Prior to Vesting. If the Grantee’s employment with the Company terminates for any reason other than Retirement prior to the Vesting Date, except as otherwise provided in the Grantee’s employment agreement, if any, the Grantee’s unvested Restricted Stock shall be forfeited back to the Company and he or she shall receive a cash payment equal to the lesser of (a) the Cost of such Restricted Stock or (b) an amount equal to the number of shares such Restricted Stock multiplied by the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of the Grantee’s termination of employment. 

 (c)     Special Provision. As soon as the Grantee reaches age sixty-five (65) with at least five (5) years of consecutive service, any unvested Restricted Stock will accelerate and vest immediately (and constitute a taxable event unless the Grantee made a timely Section 83(b) election under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended).
            
6.          Incorporation of Plan.

Capitalized terms in this Award Agreement shall have the meaning specified in the MSPP and the Plan, unless a different meaning is specified herein.
 
7.          Transferability. This Award Agreement is personal to the Grantee, is non-assignable and is not transferable in any manner, by operation of law or otherwise, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.
 
8.          Tax Withholding.

9.          Data Privacy Consent.  In order to administer the Plan and this Agreement and to implement or structure future equity grants, the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates and certain agents thereof (together, the “Relevant Companies”) may process any and all personal or professional data, including but not limited to Social Security or other identification number, home address and telephone number, date of birth and other information that is necessary or desirable for the administration of the Plan and/or this Agreement (the “Relevant Information”).
