Exhibit 10.36.4
CORTLAND BANCORP
2015 OMNIBUS EQUITY PLAN
RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT
Cortland Bancorp, an Ohio corporation, hereby grants Restricted Stock in accordance with Cortland Bancorp’s 2015 Omnibus Equity Plan to (the Participant), subject to the terms and conditions of the 2015 Omnibus Equity Plan and this Restricted Stock Award Agreement. Terms defined in the 2015 Omnibus Equity Plan are used in this Restricted Stock Award Agreement as they are defined in the 2015 Omnibus Equity Plan.
1. Number of Shares of Restricted Stock Subject to the Award. The number of shares of Cortland Bancorp common stock awarded under this Restricted Stock Award Agreement is shares, along with shares issuable after the effective date of this Restricted Stock Award Agreement as a stock dividend or stock split or issuable because of another form of change in the capital structure of Cortland Bancorp.
2. Effective Date of the Award. The date of this Award and the effective date of this Restricted Stock Award Agreement is 2020 (the “Award Date”).
3. The Award is Conditional and is Subject to Forfeiture. The Restricted Stock shall vest in equal thirds on the first three anniversaries of the Award Date, becoming 100% vested on the third anniversary, provided that on each vesting date the Participant has maintained continuous employment with Cortland Bancorp or a Related Entity through the vesting date. Except as otherwise provided in the 2015 Omnibus Equity Plan or in this Restricted Stock Award Agreement, shares of Restricted Stock that have not already become vested when the Participant’s employment termination occurs will be forfeited in its entirety by the Participant effective as of the date the Participant’s employment terminates, unless in its sole discretion the Plan Committee elects to accelerate the Participant’s vesting in and right to all or a portion of the Award when the Participant’s employment terminates. However, if a Change in Control occurs before the vesting date and if the Participant maintains continuous employment with Cortland Bancorp or a Related Entity through the date of the Change in Control, on the date of the Change in Control the Award will be fully vested andnon-forfeitable and the Participant thereafter will possess all right, title, and interest in the shares.
4. The Shares of Restricted Stock Subject to the Award Are Not Transferable as Long as the Award Is Subject to Forfeiture. Until the shares of Restricted Stock subject to the Award are vested andnon-forfeitable in accordance with section 3, the Participant is not permitted to sell, transfer, pledge, assign, or otherwise alienate or hypothecate any of the shares or any interest in the shares. Until then, Cortland Bancorp is entitled to disregard any attempt by the Participant to sell, transfer, pledge, assign, or otherwise alienate or hypothecate any of the shares or any interest in the shares, and any such sale, transfer, pledge, assignment, or other alienation or hypothecation is void and of no force or effect.
5. Rights as a Stockholder. Except as may be otherwise provided in this Restricted Stock Award Agreement, as the record holder of the shares of Restricted Stock subject to the Award the Participant has all of the associated rights of a stockholder under Ohio law and Cortland Bancorp’s Articles of Incorporation and Code of Regulations, including the right to exercise voting power and the right to cash dividends if, as, and when declared by Cortland Bancorp’s board of directors.
6. The 2015 Omnibus Equity Plan Governs. The Award and this Restricted Stock Award Agreement are subject to the terms and conditions of the 2015 Omnibus Equity Plan, as well as any rules of the Plan Committee under the 2015 Omnibus Equity Plan. The Participant acknowledges having received a copy of the 2015 Omnibus Equity Plan. The Participant represents that he or she is familiar with the terms and provisions of the 2015 Omnibus Equity Plan. The Participant accepts this Award subject to all the terms and provisions of the 2015 Omnibus Equity Plan. The Participant agrees to accept as binding, conclusive, and final all decisions or interpretations of Cortland Bancorp’s board of directors or Plan Committee having to do with the 2015 Omnibus Equity Plan or this Restricted Stock Award Agreement.
7. Certificates. Provided book entry registration is allowed by Cortland Bancorp’s Articles of Incorporation and Code of Regulations, instead of issuing certificates representing shares of common stock awarded by this Restricted Stock Award Agreement, Cortland Bancorp may record the Participant’s ownership of the shares using a book entry system. If certificates are issued, they will bear such restrictive legends as Cortland Bancorp deems necessary or desirable.
