| (8) ASSOCIATES/ACTING IN CONCERT (continued from front of Stock Order Form) Associate – The term “associate” of a person means: (1) any corporation or organization (other than Gouverneur Savings and Loan Association, Gouverneur Bancorp, Inc., Gouverneur Bancorp or Cambray Mutual Holding Company or a majority-owned subsidiary of any of those entities), of which the person is a senior officer, partner or, directly or indirectly, 10% beneficial stockholder; (2) any trust or other estate in which the person has a substantial beneficial interest or serves as a trustee or in a similar fiduciary capacity; provided, however, it does not include any employee stock benefit plan in which the person has a substantial beneficial interest or serves as trustee or in a similar fiduciary capacity; and (3) any blood or marriage relative of the person who has the same home as the person, or who is a director or officer of Gouverneur Bancorp, Inc., Gouverneur Bancorp or Gouverneur Savings and Loan Associationl. Acting in concert – The term “acting in concert” means: (1) knowing participation in a joint activity or interdependent conscious parallel action towards a common goal whether or not pursuant to an express agreement; or (2) a combination or pooling of voting or other interests in the securities of an issuer for a common purpose pursuant to any contract, understanding, relationship, agreement or other arrangement, whether written or otherwise. In general, a person or company that acts in concert with another person or company (“other party”) will also be deemed to be acting in concert with any person or company who is also acting in concert with that other party, except that any tax-qualified employee stock benefit plan will not be deemed to be acting in concert with its trustee or a person who serves in a similar capacity solely for determining whether common stock held by the trustee and common stock held by the employee stock benefit plan will be aggregated. Our directors are not treated as associates of each other solely because of their membership on the board of directors. We have the sole discretion to determine whether prospective purchasers are “associates” or “acting in concert”. We may presume that certain persons are acting in concert based upon, among other things, joint account relationships or the fact that persons share a common address (whether or not related by blood or marriage) or may have filed joint Schedules 13D or 13G with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to Gouverneur Bancorp or other companies. Please see the Prospectus section entitled “The Conversion and Stock Offering – Additional Limitations on Common Stock Purchases” for more information on purchase limitations. (10) ACKNOWLEDGMENT AND SIGNATURE(S) (continued from front of Stock Order Form) I agree that, after receipt by Gouverneur Bancorp, Inc., this Stock Order Form may not be modified or canceled without Gouverneur Bancorp, Inc.’s consent, and that if withdrawal from a deposit account has been authorized, the authorized amount will not otherwise be available for withdrawal. Under penalty of perjury, I certify that (1) the Social Security or Tax ID information and all other information provided hereon are true, correct and complete, (2) I am purchasing shares solely for my own account and that there is no agreement or understanding regarding the sale or transfer of such shares, or my right to subscribe for shares, and (3) I am not subject to backup withholding tax [cross out (3) if you have been notified by the IRS that you are subject to backup withholding]. I acknowledge that my order does not conflict with the overall purchase limitation of 5.0% of the shares of common stock sold in the offering in all categories of the offering combined, for any person or entity, together with any associate or group of persons acting in concert, as set forth in the plan of conversion and reorganization and the Prospectus dated __________, 2023. Subscription rights pertain to those eligible to subscribe in the Subscription Offering. Subscription rights are only exercisable by completing and submitting a Stock Order Form, with full payment for the shares subscribed for. Federal regulations prohibit any person from transferring or entering into any agreement directly or indirectly to transfer the legal or beneficial ownership of subscription rights, or the underlying securities, to the account of another. I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ARE NOT DEPOSITS OR SAVINGS ACCOUNTS AND ARE NOT INSURED OR GUARANTEED BY GOUVERNEUR SAVINGS AND LOAN ASSOCIATION, THE FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION OR ANY OTHER GOVERNMENT AGENCY. If anyone asserts that the shares of common stock are federally insured or guaranteed, or are as safe as an insured deposit, I should call the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. I further certify that, before purchasing the shares of the common stock of Gouverneur Bancorp, Inc., I received the Prospectus dated ________, 2023, which contains including disclosure concerning the nature of the security being offered and the risks involved in the investment, described by Gouverneur Bancorp, Inc. in the “Risk Factors” section, beginning on page __. Risk factors include, but are not limited to the following: Risks Related to Market Interest Rates 1. Changes in interest rates could reduce our profits and asset values. Risks Related to Changes in our Executive Management Team 2. Our business and operations could be negatively affected by our transition to new executive management. Risks Related to Our Recent Acquisition of Citizens Bank of Cape Vincent 3. We are subject to certain risks in connection with our recent acquisition of Citizens Bank of Cape Vincent. Risks Related to Recent Banking Industry Events 4. Financial challenges at other banking institutions could lead to disruptive and destabilizing deposit outflows, as well as an increase in FDIC deposit premiums, which could negatively impact our profitability and results of operations. 5. Insufficient liquidity could impair our ability to fund operations and jeopardize our financial condition, growth and prospects. Risks Related to Our Lending and Deposit Activities 6. Our emphasis on residential mortgage loans exposes us to lending risks. 7. Increases in our non-residential loan portfolio could expose us to increased lending risks and related loan losses. 8. If our allowance for loan losses is not sufficient to cover actual loan losses, our earnings could decrease. 9. We are subject to environmental liability risk associated with our lending activities or properties we own. 10. Municipal deposits are an important source of cost-effective funds for us, and a reduced level of such deposits may hurt our profits. Risks Related to Economic Conditions 11. Inflation can have an adverse impact on our business and on our customers. 12. A worsening of economic conditions in our market area could reduce demand for our products and services and/or result in increases in our level of non-performing loans, which could adversely affect our operations, financial condition and earnings. 13. We have a high concentration of loans secured by real estate in our market area. Adverse economic conditions, both generally and in our market area, could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Risks Related to Our Funding 14. We may be required to rely more heavily on wholesale funding strategies for funding and liquidity needs if we are unable to generate core deposits, which could have an adverse effect on our net interest margin and profitability. Risks Related to Competitive Matters 15. Our asset size and strong competition within our market area may limit our growth and profitability. Risks Related to Operational Matters 16. We face significant operational risks because of our reliance on technology. Our information technology systems may be subject to failure, interruption or security breaches, and we recently experienced a security event. 17. We are a community bank and our ability to maintain our reputation is critical to the success of our business. The failure to do so may materially adversely affect our performance. Risks Related to Accounting Matters 18. Changes in management’s estimates and assumptions may have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and our financial condition or operating results. 19. Changes in accounting standards could affect reported earnings. Risks Related to Laws and Regulations 20. Changes in laws and regulations and the cost of regulatory compliance with new laws and regulations may adversely affect our operations and/or increase our costs of operations. 21. Non-compliance with the USA PATRIOT Act, Bank Secrecy Act, or other laws and regulations could result in fines or sanctions. 22. Monetary policies and regulations of the Federal Reserve Board could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. 23. We are an emerging growth company, and any decision on our part to comply only with certain reduced reporting and disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies could make our common stock less attractive to investors. 24. We are also a smaller reporting company, and even if we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company, any decision on our part to comply only with certain reduced reporting and disclosure requirements applicable to smaller reporting companies could make our common stock less attractive to investors. Risks Related to the Stock Offering 25. We do not have strong earnings and will have a relatively high capital level after the completion of the conversion and stock offering. We expect our return on equity will be low following the stock offering, which could negatively affect the trading price of our shares of common stock. 26. The future price of our shares of common stock may be less than the $10.00 purchase price per share in the stock offering. 27. There may be a limited trading market in our shares of common stock, which would hinder your ability to sell our common stock and may lower the market price of our common stock. 28. Our failure to effectively deploy the net proceeds may have an adverse effect on our financial performance. 29. Our stock-based benefit plan will increase our expenses and reduce our income. 30. The implementation of a stock-based benefit plan may dilute your ownership interest. Historically, stockholders have approved these stock-based benefit plans. 31. We have not determined when we will adopt a new stock-based benefit plan. Stock-based benefit plans adopted more than 12 months following the completion of the conversion and stock offering may exceed regulatory restrictions on the size of stock-based benefit plans adopted within 12 months, which would further increase our costs. 32. Various factors may make takeover attempts more difficult to achieve. 33. Our articles of incorporation provide that, subject to limited exception, state and federal courts in the State of Maryland are the sole and exclusive forum for certain stockholder litigation matters, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers, and other employees. 34.You may not revoke your decision to purchase Gouverneur Bancorp, Inc. common stock in the subscription offering or any community offering after you send us your order. By executing this form, I acknowledge that I am not waiving any rights under federal or state securities laws, including the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Further, no person or entity, together with associates or persons acting in concert with such person or entity, may purchase more than the 5.0% of the shares of common stock sold in all categories of the offering combined. Current Gouverneur Bancorp stockholders are subject to these purchase limitations and an overall ownership limitation.
