WHEREAS, ADGE is the owner of shares of common stock of EuroSite Power Inc., a Delaware corporation (“EuroSite”), and the Investor is the owner of one or more convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) of ADGE.  ADGE and the Investor have agreed to exchange the Investor’s Notes for shares of common stock of EuroSite (“EuroSite Shares”) owned by ADGE.  The principal amount of the Notes being exchanged and the number of EuroSite Shares being exchanged for such Notes are set forth in the aggregate on “Exhibit A - Debt Swap Schedule” and individually n the signature page. 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants hereinafter contained, it is agreed as follows:
1.Exchange of Notes. 
(a)Exchange. The Investor hereby transfers to ADGE the Notes shown on the signature page.  The Investor is endorsing the Notes to ADGE and will deliver the Notes to ADGE as soon as practicable. Concurrently, ADGE hereby transfers EuroSite Shares it owns to the Investor, all as set forth in Exhibit A and on the signature page. ADGE will effect the transfer through the facilities of the Depositary Trust Company, if permitted, or as otherwise directed by the Investor.  The Investor acknowledges that, giving effect to the foregoing exchange, ADGE has no obligation of any nature to the Investor, including accrued interest, in respect of the Notes being exchanged and any other money borrowed by ADGE from the Investor.
(b)Investor Repays for Prepaid Interest.  The parties acknowledge that ADGE has prepaid a certain amount of interest on the Notes to the Investor.  The calculation of the number of EuroSite Shares being exchanged is a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is the principal amount of the Notes minus the amount of prepaid interest on the Notes for a period of 18 months, and as set forth on Exhibit A, (ii) and the denominator of which is the price per share indicated in Exhibit A and the signature page. 
2.Representations and Warranties of the Investor. The Investor hereby makes the following representations and warranties to ADGE, each and all of which shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement:

(b)Authorization. This Agreement has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by the Investor and constitutes a binding obligation of the Investor, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.
(c)Purchase Entirely for Own Account.

By executing this Agreement, the Investor further represents that the Investor does not presently have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person or entity to sell, transfer or grant participations to any person or entity, with respect to any of the EuroSite Shares being acquired by the Investor. 

(d)Accredited Investor. The Investor is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 501 of Regulation D (“Regulation D”) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (together with the regulations thereunder, the “Securities Act”).  The Investor further represents that it is not a “U.S. Person” as such term is defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act, did not receive an offer to make the above-described exchange while in the United States, and will not hedge the Investor’s position in EuroSite shares in violation of the Securities Act.
(e)Restricted Securities. The Investor understands that the EuroSite Shares being acquired by the Investor hereunder may only be transferred or resold by way of registration of such shares for resale under the Securities Act, or an applicable exemption under the Securities Act.  The EuroSite Shares being delivered will contain a restrictive legend to that effect. 
(f)No Other Approval.  The Investor represents that no authorization, approval, consent or license of any government or governmental entity is required to be obtained by the Investor in connection with this Agreement. 
3.Representations and Warranties of ADGE.  ADGE makes the following representations and warranties to the Investor as of the date hereof, each and all of which shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement:

(c)Ownership.   ADGE owns the entire right, title and interest in the EuroSite Shares being transferred hereunder, and will transfer such shares to the Investor, free and clear of all liens or other encumbrances.
4.Miscellaneous.
(a)    Successors and Assigns. The rights and obligations of the parties shall be binding upon and benefit the successors, assigns, heirs, administrators and transferees of the parties.
(b)    Waiver and Amendment.  The provisions of this Agreement may be amended or waived only by the written consent of ADGE and the Investor. 
 (c)    Notices. All notices and other communications given or made pursuant hereto shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given: (i) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified, (ii) when sent by confirmed email or fax if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, and if after normal business hours of the recipient, then on the next business day, (iii) five (5) days after having been sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (iv) three (3) days after deposit with an internationally recognized overnight courier with written verification of receipt.

SECTION II. ELIGIBILITY FOR BENEFITS

 

2.1          Eligibility. The Executive
is eligible to participate in this Agreement by designation of the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion. The Board of Directors
may determine, in its sole discretion, that the Executive should cease to benefit under this Agreement and in such event the Board
of Directors shall notify the Executive in writing of such determination. Such determination shall not reduce the then Vested benefit

2.2          Retirement Date. The Executive
is eligible to retire under this Agreement and receive a benefit under Section 3.1 beginning on his Retirement Date which is the
later of: (a) the first day of the month following the month in which the Executive becomes Vested and reaches age fifty-five (55),
or (b) the first day of the month following the month in which the Executive terminates employment with the Company.

 

    	2

    	 

    

 

2.3          Discharge for Cause; Competition. Anything herein
to the contrary notwithstanding, if within two (2) years after terminating employment with the Company or its subsidiaries, the
Executive engages in Competition with the Company (without prior authorization given by the Committee in writing), or if the Executive
is discharged by the Company or its subsidiaries for Cause, payments otherwise payable under this Agreement to the Executive or
the Executive’s Surviving Spouse will, in the sole discretion of the Committee, be forfeited and the Company will have no
further obligation under this Agreement to the Executive or the Executive’s Surviving Spouse. For purposes of this Section
2.3, the term “Cause” shall mean (a) the conviction of the Executive by a court of competent jurisdiction of a crime

of the Executive to perform his duties, or (d) gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Executive that is materially
and demonstrably detrimental to the Company or its subsidiaries (such finding having been initially made by the Board of Directors).

comes to own, manage, operate, control, be employed by or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or
be connected in any other manner with, any business which, in the judgment of the Board of Directors, is in substantial competition
with the Company (unless the Executive has first obtained the Board’s prior written consent) and which is located within
ten (10) miles of any location of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (b) if the Executive solicits customers of the Company
or any of its subsidiaries to reduce or stop doing business with the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or (c) if the Executive
solicits employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to leave such employment, or offers employment to employees of the
Company or any of its subsidiaries.

SECTION III. AMOUNT AND FORM OF RETIREMENT BENEFIT

 

3.1          Retirement Benefit. The annual
retirement benefit amount payable by the Company under this Agreement as a single life annuity shall equal ten percent (10%) of
the Executive’s Earnings; provided, however, that the annual retirement benefit shall be reduced by five percent (5%) for
each year that the Executive’s years of service under this Agreement are less than twenty (20) years. In the event the Executive’s
Retirement Date under Section 2.2 occurs prior to the Executive attaining the age of sixty-five (65), the annual retirement benefit
otherwise determined hereunder shall be further reduced by five percent (5%) for each year of age by which the Executive’s
attained age at his Retirement Date is less than sixty-five (65) years.

 

The Executive may elect to take his benefit
in the form of a fifty percent (50%) joint and survivor annuity, whereby he and his Spouse at the time of his Retirement would
receive an actuarial equivalent benefit over their joint lifetimes. Actuarial equivalence will be determined using reasonable actuarial
assumptions chosen by the Company. The monthly retirement benefit payable by the Company to the Executive shall equal one-twelfth
(1/12) of such annual retirement benefit. The monthly benefit payable as a single life annuity shall be payable by the Company
on the first day of each calendar month beginning with the Executive’s Retirement Date through and including the month of
the Executive’s death. In the event that the Executive elects to take his benefit in the form of joint and survivor annuity,
the benefit shall be payable by the Company on the first day of each calendar month beginning with the Executive’s Retirement
Date through and including the later of the month of the Executive’s or his Surviving Spouse’s death in accordance
with that election. In the event the Executive is determined to be a “key employee”, as such term is defined in Section
416(i) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any successor to such statute of like import, then any monthly benefit
otherwise payable on or before the date which is six (6) months after the Executive’s termination of employment date shall
be delayed until the earlier of the Executive’s date of death or the date which is six (6) months after the Executive’s
termination of employment date.

 

    	4

    	 

    

 

3.2          Death Benefit.

 

(a)          Upon the death
of the Executive after the commencement of the Executive’s retirement benefit under Section 3.1, the Executive’s Spouse
as of his Retirement Date, if still living, shall be entitled to fifty percent (50%) of the annuity benefit the Executive was receiving
at the time of his death, but only if the Executive elected the fifty percent (50%) joint and survivor annuity form pursuant to
Section 3.1. The monthly retirement benefit payable by the Company, if any, to the Surviving Spouse shall be one-twelfth (1/12)
of such annual retirement benefit and shall be payable on the first day of each month beginning with the month after the month
of the Executive’s death through and including the month of the Surviving Spouse’s death.

 

(b)          Upon the death
of the Executive prior to the commencement of the Executive’s retirement benefit under Section 3.1, the Executive’s
Surviving Spouse, if any, shall be entitled to an annual retirement benefit payable by the Company under this Agreement as elected,
determined under Section 3.1, in which the Executive is Vested at the time of his death; provided, that the Surviving Spouse survives
until the date upon which the Executive would have attained the age specified in Section 2.2(a) if the Executive’s death
occurs prior to his Retirement Date. The monthly retirement benefit payable by the Company, if any, to the Surviving Spouse shall
equal one-twelfth (1/12) of said annual retirement benefit for the Surviving Spouse and shall be payable on the first day of each
month commencing on the later of the Executive’s Retirement Date or the month after the month of the Executive’s death
through and including the month of the Surviving Spouse’s death.

 

(c)          Upon the death
of an Executive with no Surviving Spouse, or if the Executive’s Surviving Spouse shall not survive the Executive until the
date upon which the Executive would have attained the age specified in Section 2.2(a), there shall be no benefit payment under
this Agreement to the Executive, the Executive’s Surviving Spouse, the estate of either the Executive or the Surviving Spouse,
or otherwise.

 

3.3          Service. For purposes of
this Agreement, the Executive’s service shall be defined as commencing on January 1, 2016 and ending on the date the Executive’s
employment with Company or its subsidiaries is terminated, or such earlier date as shall be determined by the Board of Directors
if the Board of Directors shall determine pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof that the Executive should cease to benefit under this
Agreement (provided, however, that no such determination shall reduce the then Vested benefit of the Executive under this Agreement).
Years of service shall be determined in years and months of service with credit provided for a full month of service for the calendar
month in which the Executive’s service commences as set forth above and the calendar month in which the Executive’s
service hereunder ceases.

 

    	5

    	 

    

 

SECTION IV. PAYMENT OF RETIREMENT
BENEFITS

 

4.1          Limitation on Payments. Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no benefits are payable under this Agreement if the Executive is discharged for Cause
(as defined in Section 2.2) or engages in Competition with the Company (as defined in Section 2.2).

 

4.2          Termination. If the Executive
terminates employment voluntarily before attaining age fifty-five (55) or becoming Vested for reasons other than death or Disability,
the Company shall have no obligation to pay, and the Executive shall have no right to receive, any retirement benefit under this
Agreement whatsoever. In the event of the Executive’s involuntary termination of employment (other than for Cause) at any
time, the benefit payable to the Executive shall be determined as set forth in Section 3.1, and the Executive’s benefit shall
commence at age fifty-five (55) if the Executive then survives. In the event the Executive does not then survive, the Executive’s
Surviving Spouse shall be entitled to the benefit under Section 3.2, if the Surviving Spouse then survives.

 

SECTION V. DEATH BENEFITS PAYABLE

 

5.1          Death Benefit. Other than
the death benefit for the Surviving Spouse under Section 3.2, Section 4.2, or Section 6.2, as applicable, no death benefits are
payable under this Agreement.

 

    	6

    	 

    

 

SECTION VI. DISABILITY BENEFITS PAYABLE

 

6.1          Disability Benefit. In the
event the Committee determines that the Executive has become permanently and totally disabled (other than at a time when facts
and circumstances exist under which the Company could terminate the Executive’s employment for Cause), the Executive shall
be entitled to the benefits under Section 3.1 commencing at the Executive’s Retirement Date, but with the assumption that
the Executive completed twenty (20) years of service and is Vested in the benefit under this Agreement as of the date of disability.

 

6.2          Death after Disability. In
the event of the death of the Executive after a disability is determined, the Executive’s Surviving Spouse shall be entitled
to the benefit under Section 3.2, if the Surviving Spouse then survives.

 

6.3          Medical Evidence. The Committee
may require, no more frequently than once in any calendar year, that the Executive submit medical evidence of disability satisfactory
to the Committee. The Committee will have sole discretion to discontinue eligibility for a disability benefit based on a consideration
of such evidence or lack thereof.

 

SECTION VII. CHANGE OF CONTROL

 

7.1          Change of Control.

 

(a)          In the event
of a Change of Control, as defined in Section 7.2, of Tompkins Financial Corporation, the Executive shall be deemed to have completed
twenty (20) years of service and is Vested in the benefit under this Agreement.

 

    	7

    	 

    

 

          (b)          In the event of a Change of
Control of Tompkins Financial Corporation, if the employment of the Executive is thereafter terminated or the role or compensation
of the Executive is significantly reduced in anticipation of such a Change of Control which then occurs, or within three (3) years
of such Change of Control, then the Executive shall receive a benefit, in addition to any benefit under Section 3 of this Agreement,
under this Section 7.1(b). The benefit under this Section 7.1(b) shall be the continuation of the Executive’s Compensation,
as defined below, for a period of three (3) years plus continuation of all employee welfare benefits that the Executive was participating
in (health insurance, disability insurance, life insurance and the like) immediately prior to the Change of Control during the
period in which the Executive’s Compensation is continued; provided, however, that, for purposes of this Section 7.1(b),
the amount of the Executive’s Compensation taken into account shall be reduced by (20%) if the Executive has attained age
sixty-one (61), by 40% if the Executive has attained age sixty-two (62), by 60% if the Executive has attained age sixty-three (63),
by 80% if the Executive has attained age sixty-four (64), and by 100% if the Executive has attained age sixty-five (65), with all
such age determinations made as of the date of the Executive’s termination of employment. The continuation of the Executive’s
employee welfare benefits under this Section 7.1(b) shall be on the same terms and conditions as such employee welfare benefits
are offered to other executive employees of the successor employer to the Company and such continuation shall be for a three-year
period even if there is no continuation payment of the Executive’s Compensation because of the 100% reduction under the preceding
sentence. For purposes of this Section VII only, the term “Compensation” shall mean the Executive’s base pay
(at the rate in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control) plus the Executive’s bonus and profit sharing compensation
(which for this purpose shall be the average of the Executive’s bonus and profit sharing compensation earned for the two
(2) most recently completed fiscal years of the Company).

 

          (c)          In the event it shall be determined
that any payment or distribution by the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive (whether paid or payable or distributed
or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise) would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, including any successor to such statute of like import (the “Excise Tax”),
then the amount of the benefit otherwise payable under Section 7.1(b), if any, shall be reduced, but not below zero, to the maximum
amount upon which no such Excise Tax is imposed.

 

    	8

    	 

    

 

          (d)          For purposes of this Section
7.1, the proper amounts, if any, of the Excise Tax and the adjustment under Section 7.1(c) to eliminate the Excise Tax shall be
determined in the first instance by the Company. Within forty-five (45) days of being provided with written notice of any such
determination, the Executive may provide written notice to the Committee of any disagreement, in which event the amounts, if any,
of the Excise Tax and any adjustment under Section 7.1(c) shall be determined by independent tax counsel selected by the Company’s
independent auditors. The determination of the Company (or, in the event of disagreement, the tax counsel selected) shall be final.

 

7.2          For purposes of this Section 7,
a Change of Control shall be deemed to have occurred if subsequent to January 1, 2004, (i) any person, including a “group”
(as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the “1934 Act”), becomes the “beneficial
owner” (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) under the 1934 Act) of a majority of the common stock of Tompkins Financial
Corporation; or (ii) Tompkins Financial Corporation is a party to a merger, consolidation, or other business combination in which
it is not the surviving corporation, or sells or transfers all of a major portion of its assets to any other person (any of the
foregoing constituting a “Business Combination”); or (iii) as a result of, or in connection with, any cash tender or
exchange offer, purchase of stock, Business Combination, or contested election, or any combination of the foregoing transactions
(a “Transaction”), the persons who were the Board of Directors before the Transaction shall cease to constitute a majority
of the Board of Directors of Tompkins Financial Corporation or any Successor Corporation. “Successor Corporation” means
the surviving, resulting or transferee corporation in a Business Combination, or if such corporation is a direct or indirect subsidiary
of another corporation, the parent corporation of such surviving, resulting or transferee corporation.

 

SECTION VIII. MISCELLANEOUS

 

8.1          Termination and Amendment.
The Committee may, in its sole discretion, terminate, suspend or amend this Agreement at any time or from time to time, in whole
or in part; provided, however, that no termination, suspension, or amendment of this Agreement will, without the written consent
of the Executive or the Surviving Spouse (if the Executive is not then living), reduce the Executive’s right or the right
of the Surviving Spouse to receive or continue receiving a benefit in accordance with this Agreement. The provisions of this Section

regard to the existence of this Agreement.

 

8.3          Unfunded Arrangement. The
benefits under this Agreement are unfunded, and the Company will make benefit payments solely on a current disbursement basis.

have the status of general creditors of the Company.

of law.

 

8.8          Legal Expenses. The Company

8.9          Disputes. In the event of
any dispute after the occurrence of Change of Control (as defined in the Section 7.2) between the Company and the Executive with
respect to the Executive’s rights to any payment under this Agreement, the Company shall pay all disputed amounts to the
Executive and, if it is finally judicially determined that the Executive was not entitled to all or a portion of such disputed
amounts, the Executive shall repay to the Company the amount to which the Executive was not entitled, together with interest thereon
at the judgment rate of interest then applicable in New York State.

 

SECTION IX. SEVERANCE BENEFIT

 

9.1          Severance Benefit. In addition
to any benefit provided under Sections III, V and VI hereof, in the event of the Executive’s termination of employment without
cause (in a termination not governed by the provisions of Section 7.1 concerning a Change of Control), the Executive shall receive
a severance benefit payable by the Company in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices applicable to its executive
employees, for a period of twelve (12) months, commencing on the Company’s first payroll date after the Executive’s
termination of employment. Upon the Executive’s death after such payments have begun but before such payments are completed,
the balance of such payments shall continue to be made to the Executive’s Surviving Spouse or, if no Surviving Spouse survives
the Executive, to the Executive’s estate. For purposes of the Section 9.1, the severance benefits shall equal the Executive’s
base salary as in effect immediately prior to the Executive’s termination of employment date, excluding bonuses, profit sharing,
and the like. In addition to the severance benefit, the Executive shall be entitled, but not required, during the period in which
a severance benefit is being paid pursuant to this Section 9.1, to participate in the Company’s welfare benefit programs
available to the Company’s executive employees, upon the same terms and conditions as the Company may from time to time establish
generally for such executive employees.
