SECTION # STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS: Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Committee may grant SARs to Participants on such terms and conditions as the Committee may provide for in an Award Agreement or by action of the Committee, including, but not limited to: Exercise Price; vesting schedule; form of payment; treatment upon termination of employment or service; treatment upon certain corporate transactions or events, including a Change in Control; and other terms and conditions that the Committee may deem appropriate. SARs granted under this Plan may not provide for any dividends or dividend equivalents thereon.

The Exercise Price per share for ISOs, NQSOs, and SARs may not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the Date of Grant, provided, however, that if the Administrator decides to grant an ISO to someone described in Code Sections 422(b)(6) and 424(d) (as a more-than-10%-stockholder), the Exercise Price must be at least 110% of the Fair Market Value.

Section # SAR Award Agreement. Each SAR shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that specifies the exercise price, the expiration date of the SAR, the number of SARs, any conditions on the exercise of the SAR, and such other terms and conditions as the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine. The Award Agreement shall also specify whether the SAR is an Affiliated SAR, Freestanding SAR, Tandem SAR, or a combination thereof.

Exercise Price. Each SAR Award Agreement shall specify the Exercise Price. The Exercise Price of a SAR shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, SARs may be granted with an Exercise Price of less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant pursuant to a transaction described in, and in a manner consistent with, Section 424(a) of the Code. Subject to the foregoing in this Section 9(c), the Exercise Price under any SAR shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.

Awards of Stock Appreciation Rights or “SARs.” A SAR shall confer on the Participant to whom it is granted a right to receive, upon exercise thereof, the excess of # the Fair Market Value of one (1) share of Common Stock on the date of exercise over # the per-share exercise price of such SAR (the “SAR Price”) as determined by the Committee. SARs may be granted in tandem with all or part of an Option granted under the Plan or at any subsequent time during the term of such Option, in combination with all or any part of any other Award or without regard to any Option or other Award; provided that a SAR that is granted subsequent to the Award Date of a related Option must have a SAR Price that is no less than the Fair Market Value of one (1) share of Common Stock on the Award Date of such SAR.

No grant of SARs may be accompanied by a tandem award of dividend equivalents or provide for dividends, dividend equivalents or other distributions to be paid on such SARs.

Termination of Employment. Upon death, Disability or Retirement, all unvested SARs become fully exercisable for their remaining term. Upon termination due to voluntary termination or involuntary termination without Cause, SARs may be exercised for three months following termination, but only to the extent vested at the time of termination. Upon involuntary termination with Cause, unexercised SARs are forfeited.

Section # Grants of SARs.

Stock Appreciation Rights issued in tandem with Stock Options (“Tandem SARs”) shall terminate and no longer be exercisable upon the termination or exercise of the related Stock Option, subject to such provisions as the Committee may specify at grant if a Stock Appreciation Right is granted with respect to less than the full number of shares of Stock subject to the related Stock Option.

I certify that if I transfer the stock purchased by this exercise I will not do so in a manner that violates Cortland Bancorp’s policy on insider trading.
