EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 
 This Employment Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made effective as of September 30, 2009 (the “Effective Date”), by and between Evans Bank, N.A. (the “Bank”), Evans
Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), and Cynthia M. Rich (the “Executive”). Any reference to the “Employer” shall mean both the Company and the Bank. 

WHEREAS, the Executive is currently employed as Senior Vice President and Community Banking Executive of the
Employer pursuant to an employment agreement that was effective August 1, 2007 (the “Original Agreement”); and 
 WHEREAS, the Employer desires to terminate the Original Agreement and replace it with this Agreement; and 
 WHEREAS, Executive is willing to serve the Employer on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth and has agreed to such changes; and 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, and upon the other terms and conditions
hereinafter provided, the parties hereby agree as follows: 
 ARTICLE 1        POSITION AND
RESPONSIBILITIES. 
 During the term of this Agreement, Executive agrees to serve as Senior Vice President
and Community Banking Executive of the Bank (the “Executive Position”), and will perform all duties and will have all powers associated with such position as set forth in the job description for such Executive Position as established by
the Board of Directors of the Employer (the “Board”) from time to time, and as may be set forth in the Bylaws and Certificate of Incorporation of the Company or the Bank. During the term of the Agreement, Executive also agrees to serve, if
elected, as an officer and/or director of any subsidiary or affiliate of Employer and in such capacity carry out such duties and responsibilities reasonably appropriate to that office. 
 ARTICLE 2         TERM AND DUTIES. 
 (a)        Three Year Contract; Daily Renewal. The Executive’s period of employment with the Employer under this Agreement (“Employment
Period”) shall begin on the Effective Date and, except as provided in (b) below, shall renew daily, such that the remaining unexpired term of the Agreement shall always be thirty-six (36) months, until the date that the Bank gives the
Executive written notice of non-renewal (“Non-Renewal Notice”). Except as otherwise provided in (b) below, the Employment Period shall end on the date that is thirty-six (36) months after the date of the Non-Renewal Notice,
unless the parties agree that the Employment Period shall end on an earlier date. 

(b)        Effective upon the date that is the
Executive’s 62nd birthday, the Employment Period
shall not renew daily, this Agreement shall have a remaining (and declining) three year term, and the Employment Period shall expire and this Agreement shall terminate upon the date that is the Executive’s 65th birthday. 

(c)        Annual Performance Evaluation. On either a fiscal year or
calendar year basis, (consistently applied from year to year), the Chief Executive Officer of the Employer (the “Chief Executive Officer”) or the Board shall conduct an annual evaluation of the Executive’s performance. The annual
performance evaluation proceedings shall be reported to the Board and included in the minutes of the Board. 

(d)        Continued Employment Following Termination of Employment
Period. Nothing in this Agreement shall mandate or prohibit a continuation of the Executive’s employment following the expiration of the Employment Period. 

(e)        Duties; Membership on Other Boards. During the Employment
Period, except for periods of absence occasioned by illness, reasonable vacation periods, and reasonable leaves of absence approved by the Chief Executive Officer or the Board, Executive shall devote substantially all his business time, attention,
skill, and efforts to the faithful performance of his duties hereunder including activities and services related to the organization, operation and management of the Employer; provided, however, that, with the approval of the Chief Executive Officer
or the Board, Executive may serve, or continue to serve, on the boards of directors of, and hold any other offices or positions in, business companies or business organizations, which, in the Board’s or Chief Executive Officer’s judgment,
will not present any conflict of interest with the Employer, or materially affect the performance of Executive’s duties pursuant to 

  
 120

 
this Agreement it being understood that membership in and service on boards or committees of social, religious, charitable or similar organizations does not require Chief Executive Officer or
Board approval pursuant to this Section. For purposes of this Section, Chief Executive Officer or Board approval shall be deemed to have been granted as to service with any such business company or organization that Executive was serving as of the
date of this Agreement and disclosed to the Chief Executive Officer or Board. 
 ARTICLE
3        COMPENSATION, BENEFITS AND REIMBURSEMENT. 

3.1.                Base Salary.
The Employer shall pay Executive a salary of not less than $147,000 per year (“Base Salary”). Such Base Salary shall be payable biweekly, or with such other frequency as officers and employees are generally paid. During the period of this
Agreement, Executive’s Base Salary shall be reviewed at least annually. Such review shall be conducted by the Chief Executive Officer or Board, and the Employer may increase, but not decrease, Executive’s Base Salary (with any increase in
Base Salary to become “Base Salary” for purposes of this Agreement). 

3.2.                Bonus and
Incentive Compensation. Executive will be entitled to participate in any cash or equity-based incentive compensation or bonus plans or programs as the Employer may make available to senior executive officers from time to time. Nothing paid to
Executive under any such plan or arrangement will be deemed to be in lieu of other compensation to which Executive is entitled under this Agreement. 
 3.3.                Employee Benefits. Executive shall be entitled to participate in all employee benefit plans,
programs and arrangements as generally provided by the Bank or Company to their senior executive officers and for which Executive shall qualify. Without limiting the foregoing, the Executive may participate in the medical, health and other insurance
(including life insurance) plans maintained by the Employer for the benefit of employees. 

3.4.                Paid Time Off.
Executive is entitled to no less than 4 weeks of paid vacation per year, plus 5 personal days and customary Bank holidays. Any unused paid time off during an annual period shall be treated in accordance with the Employer’s personnel policies as
in effect from time to time. 

3.5.                Expense
Reimbursements. The Bank shall provide Executive with a monthly automobile allowance of no less than $700. During the Employment Period, the Employer shall pay or reimburse Executive for her reasonable country club dues, all reasonable travel,
entertainment and other reasonable expenses incurred by Executive during the course of performing his obligations under this Agreement. The Bank also shall reimburse Executive for fees and expenses associated with membership in trade associations or
professional memberships related to the business of the Bank or the Company. All reimbursements under this Section 3(e) shall be paid as soon as practicable by the Employer upon presentation to the Employer of an itemized account of such
expenses in such form as the Employer may reasonably require; provided, however, that no payment shall be made later than March 15 of the year immediately following the year in which the expense was incurred. 

ARTICLE 4        PAYMENTS TO EXECUTIVE UPON AN EVENT OF TERMINATION. 

4.1.          Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination (as herein
defined), the provisions of this section shall apply. As used in this Agreement, an “Event of Termination” shall mean and include any one or more of the following: 

    (i)          the involuntary termination by
the Company or the Bank of Executive’s full-time employment hereunder for any reason other than a Termination for Cause, as defined in Section 8 hereof, or a termination upon Retirement as defined in Section 7 hereof, or a termination
for Disability as set forth in Section 6 hereof; and 

    (ii)          Executive’s resignation
from the Employer’s employ upon any of the following events (which shall be treated as termination of employment for “Good Reason”), unless consented to by Executive: 

    (A)          failure to appoint Executive to
the Executive Position set forth in Section 1 above, or a material change in Executive’s function, duties, or responsibilities, which change would cause Executive’s position to become one of lesser responsibility, importance, or scope
from the position and responsibilities described in Section 1 above (and any such material change shall be deemed a continuing breach of this Agreement); 
     (B)          a relocation of Executive’s principal place of employment to a location that is more than thirty-five
(35) miles from the location of the Employer’s principal executive offices as of the date of this Agreement; 

  
 121

    (C)          a material reduction in the
benefits and perquisites, including Base Salary, to Executive from those being provided in the Agreement as of the Effective Date (except for any reduction that is part of a reduction in pay or benefits that is generally applicable to officers or
employees); 
     (D)          a
liquidation or dissolution of the Bank or the Company other than liquidations or dissolutions that are caused by reorganizations that do not affect the status of the Executive; or 

    (E)          a material breach of this
Agreement by the Employer. 
 Upon the occurrence of any event described in clause (ii) above, Executive shall have the
right to elect to terminate his employment under this Agreement by resignation within 90 days after the event giving rise to said right to elect, which termination by Executive shall be an Event of Termination. The Employer shall have 30 days to
remedy any event set forth in clauses (ii)(A) through (E) above; provided, however, that the Employer shall be entitled to waive such period and make an immediate payment hereunder. If the Employer remedies the event within such 30-day cure
period, then no Good Reason shall be deemed to exist with respect to such event. If the Employer does not remedy the event within such 30-day cure period, then the Executive may deliver a Notice of Termination, as defined in Section 9(c)
hereof, for Good Reason at any time within 60 days following the expiration of such cure period. 

(iii)          Executive’s involuntary termination of employment
without cause or voluntary resignation for Good Reason from the Employer’s employ within one (1) year following a Change in Control (as defined in Section 5 below). 

4.2.          Within 30 days following the occurrence of an Event of
Termination, the Employer shall pay Executive, or, in the event of his subsequent death, his beneficiary or beneficiaries, or his estate, as the case may be, as severance pay or liquidated damages, or both, a lump sum cash amount equal to three
times the sum of (x) highest annual rate of Base Salary paid to Executive at any time under the Agreement, and (y) the average annual incentive bonus paid to Executive during the three completed calendar years preceding the Event of
Termination; provided, however, that if such payment is made in connection with an involuntary termination of employment or voluntary resignation for Good Reason within one year after a Change in Control, then such payment is conditioned upon the
Executive signing a general release acceptable to the Employer, in substantially the form set forth as Appendix A to this Agreement. Such payment shall not be reduced in the event Executive obtains other employment following termination of
employment. Upon an Event of Termination, the Executive shall have such rights as specified in any other employee benefit plans or programs maintained by the Employer, as may be in effect from time to time. 

4.3.          Upon the occurrence of an Event of Termination, the
Employer will continue to provide, under the same cost-sharing arrangement as is in effect upon the Event of Termination, life insurance and non-taxable medical and health insurance coverage substantially comparable, as reasonably or customarily
available, to the coverage maintained by the Employer for Executive prior to his termination, except to the extent such coverage may be changed in its application to all Employer employees. Such coverage shall cease 36 months following the Event of
Termination. 
 4.4.          Notwithstanding the foregoing,
in the event the Executive is a Specified Employee (as defined herein), solely to the extent necessary to avoid penalties under Code Section 409A, payment to the Executive’s benefit pursuant to Sections 4(b) and 4(c), if applicable, shall
be made to the Executive on the first day of the seventh month following the Executive’s Event of Termination; provided, however, that the six-month delay for such payment shall not apply in the event that the separation pay is due to upon an
involuntary Separation from Service or a Good Reason Separation from Service and the amount of the separation pay does not exceed two times the lesser of (i) the Executive’s annualized compensation based upon his annual rate of pay for the
taxable year preceding the year in which the Separation from Service occurs; or (ii) the limit set forth in Section 401(a)(17) of the Internal Revenue Code for the year in which the Separation from Service occurs (i.e. for 2009, $245,000),
as provided in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) (which separation pay, if in excess of the limit, shall be made as provided herein up to the amount of the limit). “Specified Employee” shall be interpreted to comply with
Code Section 409A and shall mean a key employee within the meaning of Code Section 416(i) (without regard to paragraph 5 thereof), but an individual shall be a “Specified Employee” only if the Company or the Bank or any affiliate
is a publicly traded company. 
 4.5.          For purposes of
this Agreement, Event of Termination shall be construed to require a “Separation from Service” as defined in Code Section 409A and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, such that the Employer and Executive reasonably
anticipate that the level of bona fide services Executive would perform after termination would permanently decrease to a level that is less than 50% of the average level of bona fide services performed (whether as an employee or an independent
contractor) over the immediately preceding 36-month period. 

  
 122

 ARTICLE 5        CHANGE IN CONTROL. 

5.1.          For these purposes, a Change in Control of the Company or
the Bank shall mean a change in control of a nature that: 

    (i)          would be required to be reported
in response to Item 5.01 of the current report on Form 8-K, as in effect on the date hereof, pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”); or 

    (ii)          results in a Change in Control of
the Bank or the Company within the meaning of the Bank Holding Company Act, as amended, and applicable rules and regulations promulgated thereunder by the Federal Reserve Board (collectively, the “BHCA”), or under the Bank in Control Act
and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder by the Federal Reserve Board, as in effect at the time of the Change in Control; or 
     (iii)          without limitation such a Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred at such time as (a) any
“person” (as the term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) is or becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company
representing 25% or more of the combined voting power of Company’s outstanding securities, except for any securities purchased by the Bank’s employee stock ownership plan or trust; or (b) individuals who constitute the Board on the
date hereof (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof, provided that any person becoming a director subsequent to the date hereof whose election was approved by a vote of at least
three-quarters of the directors comprising the Incumbent Board, or whose nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders was approved by the same Nominating Committee serving under an Incumbent Board, shall be, for purposes of this clause
(b), considered as though he were a member of the Incumbent Board; or (c) a plan of reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Bank or the Company or similar transaction in which the Bank or
Company is not the surviving institution occurs or is implemented; or (d) a proxy statement soliciting proxies from stockholders of the Company is distributed, by someone other than the current management of the Company, seeking stockholder
approval of a plan of reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Company or similar transaction with one or more corporations as a result of which the outstanding shares of the class of securities then subject to the plan are exchanged for or
converted into cash or property or securities not issued by the Company; or (e) a tender offer is made for 25% or more of the voting securities of the Company and the shareholders owning beneficially or of record 25% or more of the outstanding
securities of the Company have tendered or offered to sell their shares pursuant to such tender offer and such tendered shares have been accepted by the tender offeror. 

5.2.          Notwithstanding the preceding paragraphs of this Section,
in the event that the aggregate payments or benefits to be made or afforded to Executive in the event of a Change in Control would be deemed to include an “excess parachute payment” under Section 280G of the Code or any successor
thereto, then the cash severance payable under Section 4 shall be reduced by the minimum amount necessary to result in no portion of the payments and benefits payable by the Employer under Section 4 being non-deductible pursuant to Code
Section 280G and subject to an excise tax imposed under Code Section 4999. 
 ARTICLE
6        TERMINATION FOR DISABILITY OR DEATH. 

6.1.          Termination of Executive’s employment based on
“Disability” shall be construed to comply with Code section 409A and shall be deemed to have occurred if (i) the Executive is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or
mental impairment which can be expected to result in death, or last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months; (ii) by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death, or last
for a continuous period of not less than 12 months, the Executive is receiving income replacement benefits for a period of not less than three months under an accident and health plan covering employees of the Employer; or (iii) the Executive
is determined to be totally disabled by the Social Security Administration. The provisions of paragraph 6(b) and (c) shall apply upon the termination of the Executive’s employment for Disability. 

6.2.          Executive shall participate in the short and long term
disability plans and benefits offered by the Bank to senior executives, including, but not limited to, (i) long term disability income replacement benefits equal to no less than 60% of Executive’s base salary and bonus, based on Executive
being unable to perform the required functions of Executive’s own occupation and (ii) supplemental retirement benefits under a long-term disability program, such that, in the event the Executive receives long term disability benefits, an
additional amount will be credited for the benefit of the Executive and will be paid at the time and in the form specified in the plan documents. If Executive pays the premiums for such long-term disability coverage on an after-tax basis, the Bank
shall increase Executive’s base salary by the 

  
 123

 
grossed up amount necessary in order to accommodate Executive’s payment of such premiums, such that Executive’s net base salary is not decreased as a result of Executive’s payment
of such premiums on an after-tax basis. 
 6.3.          The
Employer will cause to be continued, under the same cost-sharing arrangement as is in effect for active employees, life insurance and non-taxable medical and health insurance coverage substantially comparable, as reasonable or customarily available,
to the coverage maintained by the Employer for Executive prior to his termination for Disability, except to the extent such coverage may be changed in its application to all Employer employees or not available on an individual basis to an employee
terminated for Disability. This coverage shall cease upon the earlier of (i) Executive’s full-time employment by another employer; (ii) Executive attaining the age of 65; or (iii) Executive’s death. Upon an termination of
Executive’s employment due to Disability, the Executive shall have such rights as specified in any other employee benefit plans or programs maintained by the Employer, as may be in effect from time to time. 

(d)          In the event of Executive’s death during the term of
the Agreement, his estate, legal representatives or named beneficiaries (as directed by executive in writing) shall be paid a lump sum amount equal to two (2) times Executive’s Base Salary in effect at the time of Executive’s death,
which will be paid within 30 days of the Executive’s death. Any payment due Executive by reason of any life insurance benefit provided to him under a plan maintained by the Employer shall offset this obligation, but such payments are in
addition to any other benefits that the Executive’s beneficiaries may be entitled to receive under any employee benefit plan maintained by the Employer for the benefit of the Executive, including, but not limited to, the Employer’s
tax-qualified retirement plans, supplemental executive retirement plans (including any life insurance agreements related to the supplemental executive retirement plans). 
 ARTICLE 7        TERMINATION UPON RETIREMENT. 
 Termination of Executive’s employment based on “Retirement” shall mean termination of Executive’s employment at age 65 or in accordance with any retirement policy established by the
Board with Executive’s consent with respect to him. Upon termination of Executive based on Retirement, no amounts or benefits shall be due Executive under this Agreement, and Executive shall be entitled to all benefits under any retirement plan
of the Employer and other plans to which Executive is a party. 
 ARTICLE 8         TERMINATION FOR
CAUSE. 
 (a)           The Employer may terminate the
Executive’s employment at any time, but any termination other than Termination for Cause, as defined herein, shall not prejudice the Executive’s right to compensation or other benefits under the Agreement. The Executive shall have no right
to receive compensation or other benefits for any period after Termination for “Cause.” Termination for “Cause” shall include termination because of the Executive’s personal dishonesty, incompetence, willful misconduct,
breach of fiduciary duty involving personal profit, material breach of the Code of Ethics of either the Bank or the Company, material violation of the Sarbanes-Oxley requirements for officers of public companies that in the reasonable opinion of the
Chief Executive Officer or the Board will likely cause substantial financial harm or substantial injury to the reputation of the Company or the Bank, willfully engaging in actions that in the reasonable opinion of the Chief Executive Officer or the
Board will likely cause substantial financial harm or substantial injury to the business reputation of the Company or the Bank, failure to perform stated duties after receiving written notice of Executive’s failure to perform assigned duties,
willful violation of any law, rule or regulation (other than routine traffic violations or similar offenses) or final cease-and-desist order, or material breach of any provision of the Agreement. 

(b)          For purposes of this Section 8, no act or failure to
act, on the part of the Executive, shall be considered “willful” unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in bad faith or without reasonable belief that the Executive’s action or omission was in the best interests of
the Employer. Any act, or failure to act, based upon the direction of the Chief Executive Officer or Board or based upon the advice of counsel for the Employer shall be conclusively presumed to be done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in
good faith and in the best interests of the Employer. 
 ARTICLE 9        NOTICE. 

9.1.          Any purported termination by the Employer for Cause shall
be communicated by Notice of Termination to Executive. If, within 30 days after any Notice of Termination for Cause is given, Executive notifies the Employer that a dispute exists concerning the termination, the parties shall promptly proceed to
arbitration. Notwithstanding the pendency of any such dispute, the Employer shall discontinue paying Executive’s compensation until the dispute is finally resolved in accordance with this Agreement. If it is determined that Executive is
entitled to compensation and benefits under Section 4 of this Agreement, the payment of such compensation and benefits by the 

  
 124

 
Employer shall commence immediately following the date of resolution by arbitration, with interest due Executive on the cash amount that would have been paid pending arbitration and interest
thereon (at the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal from time to time) paid to the Executive . 
 9.2.          Any other purported termination by the Employer or by Executive shall be communicated by a Notice of Termination to the other party. If,
within 30 days after any Notice of Termination is given, the party receiving such Notice of Termination notifies the other party that a dispute exists concerning the termination, the parties shall promptly proceed to arbitration as provided in
Section 19 of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the pendency of any such dispute, the Employer shall continue to pay Executive his Base Salary, and other compensation and benefits (including, without limitation, health insurance coverage) in
effect when the notice giving rise to the dispute was given (except as to termination of Executive for Cause); provided, however, that such payments and benefits shall not continue beyond the date that is 36 months from the date the Notice of
Termination is given. In the event the voluntary termination by Executive of his employment for Good Reason is disputed by the Employer, and if it is determined in arbitration that Executive is not entitled to termination benefits pursuant to this
Agreement, he shall return all cash payments made to him pending resolution by arbitration, with interest thereon at the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal from time to time if it is determined in arbitration that
Executive’s voluntary termination of employment for Good Reason was not taken in good faith and not in the reasonable belief that grounds existed for his voluntary termination for Good Reason. If it is determined that the Executive is entitled
to receive severance benefits under this Agreement, then any continuation of Base Salary and other compensation and benefits made to the Executive under this Section 9 shall offset the amount of any severance benefits that are due to the
Executive under this Agreement. 
 9.3.          For purposes
of this Agreement, a “Notice of Termination” shall mean a written notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to
provide a basis for termination of Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated and “Date of Termination” shall mean the date of the Notice of Termination. 
 ARTICLE 10        POST-TERMINATION OBLIGATIONS AND CONFIDENTIALITY. 
 (a)          The Executive hereby covenants and agrees that, for a period of two years following his termination of employment with the Company or the
Bank, he shall not, without the written consent of the Employer, either directly or indirectly: 

    (i)          solicit, offer employment to, or
take any other action intended (or that a reasonable person acting in like circumstances would expect) to have the effect of causing any officer or employee of the Company or the Bank or any of their affiliates to terminate his or her employment and
accept employment or become affiliated with, or provide services for compensation in any capacity whatsoever to, any business whatsoever that competes with the business of the Company or the Bank or any of their affiliates or has headquarters or
offices within thirty-five (35) miles of the locations in which the Company or the Bank or their affiliates has business operations or has filed an application for regulatory approval to establish an office; 

    (ii)          become an officer, employee,
consultant, director, independent contractor, agent, sole proprietor, joint venturer, greater than 5% equity-owner or stockholder, partner or trustee of any savings bank, savings and loan association, savings and loan holding company, credit union,
bank or bank holding company, insurance company or agency, any mortgage or loan broker or any other entity competing with the Company or the Bank or their affiliates in the same geographic locations where the Company or the Bank or their affiliates
has material business interests; provided, however, that this restriction shall not apply if the Executive’s employment is terminated following a Change in Control or due to Termination for Cause; or 

    (iii)          solicit, provide any
information, advice or recommendation or take any other action intended (or that a reasonable person acting in like circumstances would expect) to have the effect of causing any customer of the Company or the Bank or their affiliates to terminate an
existing business or commercial relationship with the Company or the Bank or their affiliates. 

(b)          Executive shall, upon reasonable notice, furnish such
information and assistance to the Employer and/or its affiliates, as may reasonably be required by the Employer and/or its affiliates, in connection with any litigation in which it or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates is, or may become, a party;
provided, however, that Executive shall not be required to provide information or assistance with respect to any litigation between the Executive and the Employer, or any of its affiliates. Executive shall be reimbursed by the Employer for
out-of-pocket expenses associated with such assistance, provided that Executive submits appropriate receipts to the Employer for such expenses. Such reimbursements shall be paid in a cash lump sum no later than March 15 of the year after the
year in which the expenses were incurred. 

  
 125

 (c)          Executive
agrees that he shall not, directly or indirectly, use, make available, sell, disclose or otherwise communicate to any person, other than in the course of the Executive’s assigned duties and for the benefit of the Company or the Bank, either
during the period of the Executive’s employment or at any other time thereafter, any nonpublic, proprietary or confidential information, knowledge or data relating or belonging to the Company or the Bank, any of their respective subsidiaries,
affiliated companies or businesses, which shall have been obtained by the Executive during the Executive’s employment with the Company or the Bank. The foregoing shall not apply to information that (i) was known to the public prior to its
disclosure to the Executive; (ii) becomes known to the public subsequent to disclosure to the Executive through no wrongful act of the Executive of any representative of the Executive; or (iii) the Executive is required to disclose by
applicable law, regulation or legal process (provided that the Executive provides the Company and the Bank, as the case may be, with prior notice of the contemplated disclosure and reasonably cooperates with the Company or Bank, as the case may be,
at its expense in seeking a protective order or other appropriate protection of such information). Notwithstanding clauses (i) and (ii) of the preceding sentence, the Executive’s obligation to maintain such disclosed information in
confidence shall not terminate where only portions of the information are in the public domain. 

(d)          All payments and benefits to the Executive under this
Agreement shall be subject to the Executive’s compliance with this Section. The parties hereto, recognizing that irreparable injury will result to the Employer, its business and property in the event of the Executive’s breach of this
Section, agree that, in the event of any such breach by the Executive, the Employer will be entitled, in addition to any other remedies and damages available, to an injunction to restrain the violation hereof by the Executive and all persons acting
for or with the Executive. The Executive represents and admits that the Executive’s experience and capabilities are such that the Executive can obtain employment in a business engaged in other lines and/or of a different nature than the
Employer, and that the enforcement of a remedy by way of injunction will not prevent the Executive from earning a livelihood. Nothing herein will be construed as prohibiting the Employer from pursuing any other remedies for such breach or threatened
breach, including the recovery of damages from the Executive. 
 ARTICLE 11        SOURCE OF
PAYMENTS. 
 All payments provided in this Agreement shall be timely paid in cash or check from the general
funds of the Bank. The Company, however, guarantees payment and provision of all amounts and benefits due hereunder to Executive, and if such amounts and benefits due from the Bank are not timely paid or provided by the Bank, such amounts and
benefits shall be paid or provided by the Company. 
 ARTICLE 12        EFFECT ON PRIOR AGREEMENTS
AND EXISTING BENEFITS PLANS. 
 This Agreement contains the entire understanding between the parties hereto
and supersedes any prior employment agreement between the Employer or any predecessor of the Employer and Executive, except that this Agreement shall not affect or operate to reduce any benefit or compensation inuring to Executive of a kind
elsewhere provided. No provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted to mean that Executive is subject to receiving fewer benefits than those available to him without reference to this Agreement. 

ARTICLE 13        NO ATTACHMENT; BINDING ON SUCCESSORS. 

13.1.          Except as required by law, no right to receive payments
under this Agreement shall be subject to anticipation, commutation, alienation, sale, assignment, encumbrance, charge, pledge, or hypothecation, or to execution, attachment, levy, or similar process or assignment by operation of law, and any
attempt, voluntary or involuntary, to effect any such action shall be null, void, and of no effect. 

13.2.          This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the
benefit of, Executive and the Employer and their respective successors and assigns. 
 ARTICLE
14        MODIFICATION AND WAIVER. 

14.1.          This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by

Release (the “Acknowledgment and Release”) is entered into as of August 1, 2009, by and between Cynthia M. Rich (“Executive”), Evans Bank, NA (the “Bank”) and Evans Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”).

 WHEREAS, the Executive, the Bank and the Company have entered into an employment agreement dated

the date of termination of employment. 

  (b)        Executive, on behalf of himself, his heirs and assigns,
irrevocably and unconditionally releases the Bank and the Company from all claims, controversies, liabilities, demands, causes of action, debts, obligations, promises, acts, agreements, and damages of whatever kind or nature, whether known or

  (f)        EXECUTIVE ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS RELEASE
IS A FULL AND FINAL BAR TO ANY AND ALL CLAIM(S) OF ANY TYPE THAT HE MAY NOW HAVE AGAINST THE BANK AND/OR THE COMPANY, TO THE EXTENT PROVIDED ABOVE BUT THAT IT DOES NOT RELEASE ANY CLAIMS THAT MAY ARISE AFTER THE DATE OF THIS AGREEMENT OR NOT

 ORIX Corporation, a joint stock company organized

above on [            ], 2017 and to pay interest thereon from [            ], 2012 or from the most recent interest payment date
to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semi-annually in arrears on [            ] and [            ] in each year
commencing [            ], 2012 at the rate per annum provided in the title hereof, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment, all subject to and in accordance
with the terms of the Indenture. 
 With respect to each interest payment date, as described above, interest shall be paid to
the holders of record as of the immediately preceding [            ] and [            ], as applicable. Interest on this Security
will accrue from the date of original issuance or, if interest has already been paid, from the date it was most recently paid. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. 

If any payment is due on this Security on a day that is not a business day, payment will be made on the day that is the next business
day. Payments postponed to the next business day in this situation will be treated under the Indenture as if they were made on the original due date. Postponement of this kind will not result in an Event of Default under the Securities or the

 For the purposes of the preceding paragraph, “business day” means each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday which is not a day on which banking or trust institutions in New York City
or in Tokyo are authorized generally or obligated by law, regulation or executive order to close. 
 The principal of, and
interest and additional amounts on, this Security will be payable in U.S. dollars. The Issuer will cause the Trustee, or the paying agent, if any, to pay such amounts, on the dates payment is to be made, directly to DTC. 

The Issuer will pay the holder hereof additional amounts with respect to withholding taxes as are provided for, and subject to the
conditions stated, on the reverse of this Security. 

 This Security is the direct, unsecured and unsubordinated general obligation of the Issuer
and has the same rank in liquidation as all of the other unsecured and unsubordinated debt of the Issuer. This Security is not redeemable prior to maturity, except as set forth on the reverse of this Security and will not be subject to any sinking
fund. 
 Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security set forth on the reverse hereof, which further
provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place. 
 Unless the certificate of
authentication hereon has been manually executed by or on behalf of the Trustee under the Indenture, this Security shall not be entitled to any benefits under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

 REVERSE OF SECURITY 

This Security is one of the duly authorized issues of unsecured debentures, notes or other evidences of indebtedness of the Issuer
(hereinafter called the “Securities”), of the series hereinafter specified, all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to the indenture dated as of April 27, 2010 (hereinafter called the “Indenture”), duly executed and
delivered by the Issuer and Law Debenture Trust Company of New York, as Trustee (the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor Trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and any other indentures supplemental thereto reference is
hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee and any agent of the Trustee, any paying agent, the Issuer and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms
upon which the Securities are issued and are to be authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof. By the terms of the Indenture, additional Securities of this series and of other separate series, which
may vary as to date, amount, seniority, stated maturity (if any), interest rate or method of calculating the interest rate and in other respects as therein provided, may be issued in an unlimited amount. 

Payments of principal and interest on the Securities will be made by the Issuer without withholding or deduction for or on account of any
present or future taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges imposed or levied by or on behalf of Japan or any political subdivision thereof having power to tax, unless otherwise required by law. If any such withholding or deduction is
required by Japanese law, the Issuer will pay to a Holder such additional amounts as may be necessary in order that the amount received by the Holder after deduction or withholding for or on account of any such present or future tax, duty,
assessment or other governmental charge will not be less than the amount that, in the absence of such deduction or withholding, would have been received by the Holder. However, no additional amounts will be payable with respect to any Security under
any of the following circumstances: 
  

	 	•	 	 the Holder or beneficial owner of the Security is a non-resident of Japan or non-Japanese corporation and is liable for such Japanese taxes in respect
of such Security by reason of its (a) having some connection with Japan other than the mere holding of the Security or (b) being a person having a special relationship with the Issuer for Japanese tax purposes as described in Article 6,
paragraph (4) of the Act on Special Measures Concerning Taxation of Japan (Act No. 26 of 1957, as amended); 

  

	 	•	 	 the Holder or beneficial owner of the Security is for Japanese tax purposes treated as a resident of Japan or a Japanese corporation (except for
(a) a Japanese financial institution designated in Article 3-2-2, paragraph (29) of the Cabinet Order No. 43 of 1957 (as amended) that complies with the requirement to provide interest recipient information or to submit a written
application for tax exemption and (b) a resident of Japan or a Japanese corporation that duly notifies, directly or through a participant in an international clearing organization or otherwise, the relevant paying agent of its status not being
subject to Japanese taxes to be withheld or deducted by the Issuer by reason of receipt by such resident of Japan or Japanese corporation of interest on the relevant Security through a payment handling agent in Japan appointed by the Issuer);

	 	•	 	 the tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge is imposed or withheld because the Holder or beneficial owner failed to make a declaration or
satisfy any information requirements that the statutes, treaties, regulations or administrative practices of Japan require as a precondition to exemption from all or part of such tax or governmental charge; 

 

	 	•	 	 the Security is presented for payment (where presentation is required) more than 30 days after the day on which such payment on the Security became due
or after the full payment was provided for, whichever occurs later, except to the extent the Holder thereof would have been entitled to additional amounts on presenting the same for payment on the last day of such period of 30 days;

  

	 	•	 	 the withholding or deduction is imposed on a payment to an individual pursuant to the European Council Directive 2003/48/EC regarding the taxation of
savings income, or any law implementing such directive; 

  

	 	•	 	 the withholding or deduction is imposed on a Holder or beneficial owner who could have avoided such withholding or deduction by presenting its Security
(where presentation is required) to another paying agent maintained by the Issuer; 

  

	 	•	 	 the Holder is a fiduciary or partnership or is not the sole beneficial owner of the payment of the principal of, or any interest on, any Security, and
Japanese law requires the payment to be included for tax purposes in the income of a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such partnership or a beneficial owner, in each case, who would not have been entitled to such
additional amounts had it been the Holder of such Security; or 

  

	 	•	 	 any combination of the above. 

 The Issuer will (i) make any required withholding or deduction and (ii) remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the Japanese taxing authority in accordance with applicable law. The Issuer
will use all reasonable efforts to obtain certified copies of tax receipts evidencing the payment of any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge so deducted or withheld from the Japanese taxing authority imposing such tax, duty,
assessment or other governmental charge and will provide such certified copies to each Holder. The Issuer will attach to each certified copy a certificate stating (x) that the amount of withholding tax, duty, assessment or other governmental
charge evidenced by the certified copy was paid in connection with payments in respect of the principal amount of Securities then outstanding and (y) the amount of such withholding tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge paid per
$1,000 principal amount of the Securities. Copies of such documentation will be available for inspection during ordinary business hours at the office of the Trustee by the Holders of the Securities upon request and will be made available at the
office of the paying agent. 
 The obligation to pay additional amounts with respect to any taxes, duties, assessments and other
governmental charges shall not apply to (A) any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, personal property or any similar tax, duty, assessment, fee or other governmental charge or (B) any tax, duty, assessment, fee or other
governmental charge which is payable otherwise than by deduction or withholding from payments of principal or interest on this Security; provided that, except as otherwise set forth herein and in the Indenture, the Issuer shall pay all stamp, court
or documentary taxes or any excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies and other duties, if any, which may be imposed by Japan, the United States or any political subdivision or any taxing authority thereof or therein, with respect to the
Indenture or as a consequence of the initial issuance, execution, delivery or registration of this Security. 

 References to principal or interest in respect of the Securities shall be deemed to include
any additional amounts due which may be payable as set forth here and in the Indenture. 
 The Issuer has the option to redeem
the Securities prior to maturity if, upon any change in Japanese law occurring on or after the issue date, the Issuer would be required to pay additional amounts as described above, in which case the Issuer may redeem the Securities in whole, but
not in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities plus accrued interest to the redemption date. Furthermore, the Issuer must give the Holders between 30 and 60 days notice before redeeming the Securities, and
no such notice of redemption may be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer would be required to make such payment of additional amounts if a payment in respect of the Securities were actually due on such date.

 So long as any of the Securities remain outstanding, the Issuer may not create or permit to subsist any pledge, lien or other
charge upon the whole or any part of its undertaking, assets or revenues present or future to secure, for the benefit of the holders thereof, any External Indebtedness, as defined below, without according or procuring to be accorded to the debt
obligations of the Issuer under the Securities and the Indenture the same security as is granted to such External Indebtedness or such other security or guarantee as shall be approved by Holders representing more than 50% of the outstanding
principal amount of the Securities. “External Indebtedness” means any of the indebtedness of the Issuer or any of its consolidated subsidiaries, with a stated maturity of more than one year from the creation thereof, which is represented
by bonds, debentures, notes or any other similar debt securities which are quoted, listed or ordinarily dealt in, or are intended to be quoted, listed or ordinarily dealt in, on a stock exchange or on any over-the-counter or any other similar
securities market outside Japan and which are by their terms repayable or confer a right to receive repayment in any currency other than yen or are denominated in yen, if a majority of the aggregate nominal amount thereof is initially distributed
outside Japan by or with the Issuer’s authorization (or guarantees, indemnities or other like obligations (in each case granted or undertaken for the benefit of the holders of such securities to secure the payment of such indebtedness) in
respect of such indebtedness). 
 The Issuer reserves the right, from time to time, without the consent of the Holders of the
Securities, to issue additional Securities on terms and conditions identical to those of the Securities (other than the issue date, the date upon which interest first accrues, and, in some cases, the first interest payment date), which additional
Securities shall increase the aggregate principal amount of, and shall be consolidated and form a single series with, the Securities; provided that such additional Securities must be fungible with the Securities for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
The Issuer may also issue other securities under the Indenture as part of a separate series that have different terms from the Securities. 

 The Issuer may change the paying agent or registrar without prior notice to the Holders of
the Securities, and the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries may act as paying agent or registrar. 
 A Holder of Securities issued
in definitive form may transfer or exchange Securities in accordance with the Indenture. As described in the legend on the face of this global security, interest payments on such Securities issued in definitive form will be subject to Japanese
income taxation unless the Holder establishes the matters set forth therein. Such legend concerning Japanese taxation shall also be included on the face of any Securities issued in definitive form. The registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder,
among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents, and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Issuer will treat the registered Holder of a Security as the owner of that Security for
all purposes, except as described above. 
 If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be
continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 
 The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Securities
of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of all series to be
affected (voting as a class). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities
of such series, to waive compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and
binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this
Security. 
 No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair
the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. 

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable, upon
surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Issuer in any place where the principal of and interest on this Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Issuer and the security registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the
same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 
 The Securities of this series
are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are
exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 

 No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the
Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. 
 Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as
the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Issuer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 This Security shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, except with respect to its authorization and execution by the Issuer and other matters required to be
governed by the laws of Japan. 
 All capitalized terms used but not defined in this Security which are defined in the Indenture
shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
