 KEY EMPLOYEE 
 SEVERANCE PAY PLAN 
 AMENDED AND
RESTATED – October 18, 2006 

 ARTICLE I 
 PURPOSE OF PLAN 
 Section 1.01 Purpose of the Plan. The Susquehanna Bancshares, Inc. Key
Employee Severance Pay Plan (the “Plan”), as set forth herein, is intended to alleviate financial hardships which may be experienced by senior executives and other key employees of Susquehanna Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company”) and
the Company’s Affiliates whose employment is terminated under specified circumstances within one (1) year following a Change of Control of the Company, and to reinforce and encourage the continued attention and dedication of those senior
executives and other key employees to their assigned duties without distraction from a potential Change of Control of the Company. The Plan is not intended to be an “employee pension benefit plan” or a “pension plan” as defined
in Section 3(2) of ERISA. Rather, this Plan is intended to meet the criteria set forth in 29 C.F.R. § 2510.3-2(b) for a “severance pay plan” that is an “employee welfare benefit plan” within the meaning of
Section 3(1) of ERISA. Accordingly, the benefits paid by the Plan are not deferred compensation. In return for the benefits provided to the Participants under the Plan, each Participant agrees that he or she will not solicit the customers and
employees of the Company and its Affiliates under the circumstances described in Article VII of this Plan document. 
 Section 1.02
Restatement of Plan. This amended and restated Plan amends and replaces the earlier Plan dated January, 1999 as well as the First Amendment dated May 26, 2000, the Second Amendment dated February 22, 2001, and the Amended and
Restated Plan dated April 20, 2005.

 ENFORCEMENT AND REMEDIES 
 Section 6.01 Interest. In the event that the Company shall fail or refuse to make payment of any amounts or provide any other Benefits due the Participant under Article V hereof within the respective time
periods provided therein, the Company shall pay to the Participant, in addition to the payment of any other sums provided in this Plan, interest, compounded daily, on any amount remaining unpaid (including the amount of any other Benefit due but
unpaid) from the date payment is required under Article V, as appropriate, until paid to the Participant, at the rate from time to time announced by Chase Manhattan Company as its “prime rate” plus two percent (2%), each change in such
rate to take effect on the effective date of the change in such prime rate. 
 Section 6.02 Expenses. It is the intent of the
Company that the Participant not be required to incur any expenses associated with the successful enforcement of his rights under this Plan by arbitration, litigation or other legal action because the cost and expense thereof would substantially

attorneys’ fees and legal expenses) incurred by the Participant in successfully enforcing any of the obligations of the Company under this Plan.

reduced by any compensation earned or benefit received through other employment or otherwise. 
 Section 6.04 No Set-Off. The
Company’s obligation to make the payments provided for in this Plan and otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder shall not be affected by any circumstances, including, without limitation, any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or
other right which the Company may have against the Participant or others. 
  

 7 

 Section 6.05 Taxes. Any payment required under this Plan shall be subject to all requirements
of the law with regard to the withholding of taxes, filing, making of reports and the like, and the Company shall use its best efforts to satisfy promptly all such requirements.

Participant is employed by the Company or an Affiliate; and, during the applicable Non-Solicitation Period following Termination of Employment for any reason; the Participant will not, directly for him or herself or any third party, solicit, induce,

services or financial products sold, or any business or activity engaged in, by Company or any Affiliate.

Company, acting through the Board of Directors, retains the right, at any time and from time to time prior to a Change of Control, to amend, suspend or terminate the Plan in whole or in part, for any reason, and without either the consent of or the
prior notification to any Participant. No such amendment, suspension or termination shall be permitted upon or after a Change of Control. No such amendment shall give the Company the right to recover any amount paid to a Participant prior to the
date of such amendment or to cause the cessation and discontinuance of Benefits to any person or persons under the Plan already receiving Benefits. 
 ARTICLE IX 
 CLAIMS PROCEDURES 
 Section 9.01 Application for Benefits. Each Participant believing himself/herself eligible for Benefits under this Plan may apply for such Benefits by filing with the Board of Directors a written request
for Benefits, which request may comprise a Notice of Termination delivered by the Participant.

Claims for Benefits. In the event that any claim for Benefits is denied in whole or in part, the Participant (or beneficiary, if applicable) whose claim has been so denied shall be notified of such denial in writing by the Board of Directors.

 9 

 (c) The Board of Directors shall consider the merits of the claimant’s written and oral
presentations, the merits of any facts or evidence in support of the denial of benefits, and such other facts and circumstances as the Board of Directors shall deem relevant. If the claimant elects not to make an oral presentation, such election
shall not be deemed adverse to his/her interest, and the Board of Directors shall proceed as set forth below as though an oral presentation of the contents of the claimant’s written presentation had been made. 
 (d) The Board of Directors shall render a determination upon the appealed claim, within sixty (60) days of the hearing date, which determination

he/she may expect to receive, contingently or otherwise, under this Plan. 
 Section 10.02 No Contract of Employment. Neither the
establishment of the Plan, nor any modification thereof, nor the payment of any Benefits shall be construed as giving any Participant, or any person whosoever, the right to be retained in the service of the Company, and all Participants shall remain
subject to discharge to the same extent as if the Plan had never been adopted. 
 Section 10.03 Severability of Provisions. If
any provision of this Plan shall be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions hereof, and this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such provisions had not been included.

any assets of the Company which may be applied by the Company to the payment of Benefits. 
 Section 10.09 Payments to Incompetent
Persons, Etc. Any benefit payable to or for the benefit of a minor, an incompetent person or other person incapable of receipting therefor shall be deemed paid when paid to such person’s guardian or to the party providing or reasonably
