	(i)
	Without any requirement of prior request, the Borrower and other Loan Parties shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the advisors to the Lenders of the occurrence of any Waiver Termination Event, the failure to satisfy a condition precedent or other material breach under this Amendment.

	(k)
	The Borrower and the other Loan Parties each acknowledge and agree that the breach or failure to comply in any respect with the terms and conditions of this Section 4 shall constitute an immediate Event of Default under Section 8.01 of the Credit Agreement.

Except as expressly modified hereby, all terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement and all other Loan Documents remain in full force and effect and nothing contained in this Amendment shall in any way impair the validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or the Loan Documents, or alter, waive, annul, vary, affect, or impair any provisions, conditions, or covenants contained therein or any rights, powers, or remedies granted therein. This Amendment shall not constitute a modification of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or a course of dealing with Administrative Agent or the Lenders at variance with the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents such as to require further notice by Administrative Agent or any Lender to require strict compliance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents in the future, except in each case as expressly set forth herein.

	13.

The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Employee Annual Incentive Plan

Plan Document

 

Plan Effective: January 1, 2004

Revised/Approved: February 8, 2019

 

    	 	1 	 

     

    

 

Employee Annual Incentive Plan

 

I. Introduction/Purpose

 

This Employee Annual Incentive Plan has
been developed as a meaningful compensation tool for employees at all levels, who through high levels of performance, contribute
to the success and profitability of Juniata Valley Financial Corp (Company). The Plan is designed to support organizational objectives,
financial goals, and the best interests of the shareholders as defined in the Bank’s Strategic Plan, by making available
additional, variable, and contingent at-risk compensation, in the form of cash awards.

 

The Employee Annual Incentive Plan is based
upon the achievement of required financial targets and other defined objectives consistent with those contained in the Strategic
Plan. The formulas and awards have been carefully constructed to integrate the interests of the shareholder as well as enable the
Bank to attract, retain, and motivate high quality personnel and support the continued growth and profitability of the Company.

 

The Plan is not meant to be a substitute
for salary increases, but supplemental to base salary and a reward for performance that contributes to outstanding levels of long-term
achievement.

 

While risk is an inherent aspect of business,
this compensation plan is designed to reward executives for certain levels of performance without encouraging undue risk taking
which could materially threaten the safety and soundness of the organization or business unit.

 

II. Plan Year

 

The Plan year for this program will be
the calendar year. The effective date of the Plan is January 1, 2004. The performance measures for this will be determined, calculated
and approved annually.

 

III. Participation

 

In order to be eligible, an individual
must meet the following criteria:

 

		·	Must have been employed prior to July
1 of the Plan year; 

		·	Must be employed in a full-time or part-time
position; and

		·	Must receive an overall rating of “Good”
or better on his/her most recent individual performance evaluation prior to the Plan year award.

    	 	2 	 

     

    

 

A participant's eligibility ceases at termination
of employment (other than retirement, death or disability), and the participant will not receive any awards under the Plan for
the year of termination. Termination as a result of retirement (as defined in the company’s retirement plans), death, or
disability will provide pro-rated awards in the Plan through the last working date for the year in which termination occurred.
If the participant dies during the Plan year, his/her designated beneficiary shall receive a pro-rated share of any award for which
he/she would have been eligible.

 

Due to the various levels of responsibility
of the positions within the Bank, the Board of Directors has selected the following Tiers of participation for the Employee Annual
Incentive Plan. These tiers will generally be based upon position responsibility and grade level.

 

Tier 1 – President and Chief
Executive Officer

IV. Performance Factors

 

The annual portion of the Plan is based
upon company financial performance factors which may change from year to year. In general, these factors may be measures such as
return on assets, return on equity, net income, earnings per share or similar indicators. The factors and weighing of the factors
are determined at the beginning of each Plan year. Each factor has quantifiable objectives consisting of threshold, target and
optimum goals. The Company’s financial performance factors for the current year can be found in Exhibit A.

 

V. Award Calculation and Distribution

 

Awards under the Plan are calculated according
to determination of the established performance factors at year end. Company performance between the threshold and target, and
target and optimum is interpolated. Awards are determined by taking the determined award percentage times eligible compensation.

With regard to discretionary changes to award amounts relative
to individual performance, please reference the following:

 

		·	Tier 4 ■

		·	Tier 3 ■

		·	Tier 2 (Executive Vice President/Chief
Financial Officer) – After the award is calculated according to the financial performance factors, the President and
Chief Executive Officer may increase or decrease the award up to 10%* (of the calculated award amount) based on the participant’s
individual performance for the year. 

		·	Tier 1 (President and Chief Executive
Officer) – After the award is calculated according to the financial performance factors, the Board may increase or decrease
the award up to 10% (of the calculated award amount) based on the participant’s individual performance for the year. 

 

*All discretionary adjustments within the
10% (of the calculated award amount) being made by the President and Chief Executive Officer will be reviewed and approved by the
Board of Directors.

 

Bank performance below threshold will result
in no awards being paid under the Plan. In the event this occurs, the President and Chief Executive Officer will have discretion
to grant individual awards, with approval by the Board of Directors, for performance bonuses to those individuals who have achieved
a high level of individual performance within their divisions.

 

Annual awards are paid in cash less normal
payroll tax withholding. Awards will be paid within 75 days following the end of the plan year. Any participant terminating employment
(except retirement, death, or disability) prior to the actual payment of the award will forfeit that award.

 

While every effort has been made to ensure
that this incentive plan does not motivate or reward undue risk taking, any results deemed to have been the result of inappropriate
risk will be backed out of incentive payments. The Board of Directors has the discretion to lever incentive payments down by as
much as 100% if it is determined that excessive risk has been taken. This can be done on an individual or overall basis, as appropriate.

 

VI. Clawback

 

Awards will be recalculated if the relevant company performance
measures upon which they are based are restated or otherwise adjusted within the 36-month period following the public release of
the financial information. Any material overpayments or adjustments required by law will be owed back to the company.

 

VII. Administration

 

Eligible Compensation for purpose of this
Plan is defined as a participant’s W-2 gross wages net of any option activity results, taxable retirement earnings, prior
year commissions and bonuses and any other imputed income resulting from employee benefits.

 

The Board of Directors of the Bank may
amend the Plan at any time.

Once established, performance factors will
remain in place for the year, unless the Board of Directors decides otherwise.

 

Participation, performance factors, thresholds,
targets and any other participation features are established each Plan year and may change from year to year according to the strategic
objectives of the bank.

 

At least annually, the Chief Financial
Officer acting as the highest-ranking risk officer will review this Plan and provide a detailed report including a detailed assessment
regarding any risk issues inherent in the Plan. This risk report and the plan document in full will be reviewed by the Personnel
and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors to ensure that the plan design is consistent with the compensation philosophy
of Juniata Valley Bank and that the plan does not motivate undue risk taking. The annual review will also include the market competitiveness
of the plan, the plan’s alignment with the Bank’s strategic plan, an assessment of how the plan meets the objectives
in the Introduction of this document, plus the plan’s impact on the overall safety and soundness of the Bank. The Committee
will then provide a report and recommendations to the full Board of Directors who are responsible to approve the Plan. The Board
of Directors of the Bank may amend the Plan at any time.

 

The Plan does not constitute a contract
of employment, and participation in the Plan does not give any employee the right to be retained by the Bank or any right or claim
to an award under the Plan unless specifically accrued under the terms of this Plan.

 

Any right of a participant or his or her
beneficiary to the payment of an award under this Plan may not be assigned, transferred, pledged or encumbered.

 

Any adjustments to the financial performance
results utilized in this Plan because of extraordinary gains or losses or other items must be approved by the Board of Directors.
