EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT is made on the 2nd day of January, 2001 between COMMUNITY BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a federally-chartered banking institution (the “Bank”), Ralph Burchianti, an adult individual (the “Executive”).

WHEREAS, the Bank desires to employ the Executive as its Senior Vice President in charge of the Bank’s credit and lending functions under the terms and conditions set forth herein; and

WHEREAS, the Executive desires to serve the Bank in an executive capacity under the terms and conditions set forth herein;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties agree as follows:

1. TERM OF EMPLOYMENT.

(a) Initial Term. The Bank hereby employs the Executive and the Executive hereby accepts employment with the Bank for a term of three (3) years, beginning on January 1, 2001 and ending on December 31, 2003 (the “Initial Term”), subject, however, to prior termination of this Agreement as set forth below.

(b) Successive Terms. Commencing in the year 2001, at least sixty (60) days prior to the end of each year during the term of this Agreement (and any extension), the Board of Directors shall evaluate the Executive’s performance and shall provide the Executive with a written notice stating whether the Board wishes to extend this Agreement for an additional year beyond the number of years remaining in its Initial Term or any extension, and the terms upon which such extension is offered (e.g., at least sixty (60) prior to December 31, 2001, the Board may offer to extend this Agreement to December 31, 2004). Not later than thirty days following receipt of such notice, the Executive shall respond in writing, stating his acceptance or rejections, or his proposed modification of the offer received from the Board. If the parties agree upon the terms of such extension, an amendment to this Agreement shall be prepared and executed by the parties.

(a) Employee Benefit Plans. The Executive shall be entitled to participate in or receive benefits under all Bank employment benefit plans including but not limited to any pension plan, profit-sharing plan, savings plan, bonuses, medical insurance plans, life insurance plan or disability insurance plan as made available by the Bank to its senior management employees, subject to and on a basis consistent with terms, conditions and overall administration of such plans and arrangements.

(b) Vacation and Holidays. The Executive shall be entitled to the number of paid vacation days in each calendar year determined by the Bank from time to time for its senior executive officers, but not less than four (4) weeks in any calendar year (prorated in any calendar year during which the Executive is employed hereunder for less than the entire such year in accordance with the number of days in such calendar year during which he is so employed). However, the Executive shall take no more than two (2) consecutive weeks vacation without prior approval by the Board of Directors of the Bank. The Executive shall also be entitled to all paid holidays given by the Bank to its employees.

(c) Business Expenses. During the term of his employment hereunder, the Executive shall be entitled to receive prompt reimbursement for all reasonable expenses incurred by him (in accordance with the policies and procedures established by the Board of Directors of the Bank for its senior executive officers) in performing services hereunder, provided that the Executive properly accounts therefor in accordance with Bank policy. In addition, the Executive shall be entitled to receive prompt reimbursement for all reasonable expenses incurred because of the presence of his wife at trade association meetings and/or conventions, but only if the presence of the attendee’s spouse at such function is customary.

(d) Mobile Telephone. The Executive shall be entitled to the use of a Bank purchased or leased telephone and/or pager of the make and model as may be mutually agreed upon by the Board of Directors and the Executive. The Executive shall also be entitled to reimbursement for all fixed monthly expenses associated with such service and for reimbursement of all charges for business-related calls. Each month, the Executive shall report to the Bank regarding all calls for non-Bank matters, and the Bank shall report the expenses incurred with respect to such calls as additional compensation to the Executive.

(e) Stock Options. The Executive shall be entitled to receive stock options as set forth in the Community Bank Incentive Stock Option Plan adopted by the Board of Directors and as set forth in the Stock Option Agreement attached hereto as exhibit “A”.

(f) Medical Examination. The Executive shall submit to medical examinations, at Bank expense and by a physician acceptable to the Bank, on a bi-annual basis (i.e. once every two years). The results of such examination shall be made available to the Board of Directors.

6. POSITIONS. The Executive agrees to serve, if elected or appointed thereto, in one or more offices of the Bank.

7. UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE. During the term of his employment hereunder, or at any later time, the Executive shall not, without the written consent of the Board of Directors of the Bank or a person authorized thereby, knowingly disclose to any person, other than an employee of the Bank or a person to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance by the Executive of his duties as an executive of the Bank, any material confidential information obtained by him while in the employ of the Bank with respect to any of the Bank’s services, products, improvements, formulas, designs or styles, processes, customers, methods of business or any business practices the disclosure of which could be or will be materially damaging to the Bank provided, however, that confidential information shall not include any information known generally to the public (other than as a result of unauthorized disclosure by the Executive or any person with the assistance, consent or direction of the Executive) or any information of a type not otherwise considered confidential by persons engaged in the same business or a business similar to that conducted by the Bank.

8. RESTRICTIVE COVENANT. The Executive covenants and agrees that the Executive shall not directly or indirectly, within the marketing area of the Bank (defined as within fifty (50) miles of Waynesburg, Pennsylvania), enter into or engage generally in direct or indirect competition with the Bank, either as an individual on his own or as a partner or joint venturer, or as a director, officer, shareholder, employee, agent, independent contractor, lessor or creditor of or for any person, for a period of one year after the date of termination of his employment if the Executive’s employment is terminated for any reason whatsoever except upon resignation by the Executive for “Good Reason” under paragraph 9(d) hereof (except that change of control shall not constitute Good Reason for this paragraph). The existence of any claim or cause of action of the Executive against the Bank, whether predicated on this Agreement of otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Bank of this covenant. The Executive agrees that any breach of the restrictions set forth in paragraph 7 and this

paragraph 8 will result in irreparable injury to the Bank for which it shall have no adequate remedy at law and the Bank shall be entitled to injunctive relief in order to enforce the provisions hereof. In the event that this paragraph shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable in part by reason of it being too great a period of time or covering too great a geographical area, it shall be in full force and effect as to that period of time or geographical area determined to be reasonable by the court. The Executive acknowledges that, in agreeing to this covenant, he has received additional consideration in exchange therefor.

9. TERMINATION.

(a) The Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate upon his death.

(b) If the Executive becomes disabled because of sickness, physical or mental disability, or any other reason, the Bank shall have the option to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice of termination to the Executive. Executive shall be deemed to have become “disabled” only in the event and at such time as he qualified (after expiration of any applicable waiting period) to receive benefits for total disability under the employee disability insurance benefit plan referred to in Paragraph 5(a) above.

(c) The Bank may terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder for Cause. For the purposes of this Agreement, the Bank shall have “Cause” to terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder upon (1) willful failure by the Executive to perform his duties hereunder, or (2) gross negligence by the Executive resulting in injury to the Bank, or (3) the violation by the Executive through gross negligence of the provisions of paragraphs 3 or 7 hereof after notice from the Bank and a failure to cure such violation within thirty (30) days of said notice, or if said violation cannot be cured within thirty (30) days, within a reasonable time thereafter if the Executive is diligently attempting to cure the violation, or (4) the gross negligence or dishonestly of the Executive in the performance of his duties or (5) the breach of Executive’s fiduciary duty involving personal profit, or (6) the violation of any law, rule or regulation governing banks or bank officers of any final cease and desist order issued by a bank regulatory authority, or (7) moral turpitude or other conduct on the part of Executive which brings public discredit to the Bank or (8) for any stated reason, any of the appropriate bank regulatory agencies require the Bank to terminate this Agreement, or the Bank does not receive approval for the continued employment of the Executive.

(d) The Executive may terminate his employment hereunder if (1) his health should become impaired to an extent that it makes continued performance of his duties hereunder hazardous to his physical or mental health or his life; or (2) for Good Reason. The term “Good Reason” shall mean: (i) any assignment to the Executive, without his consent, of any duties other than those contemplated by, or any limitation of the powers of the Executive not contemplated by paragraphs 2 and 6 hereof; (ii) any removal of the Executive from any of the positions indicated in paragraph 2 hereof, except in connection with termination of the Executive’s employment for Cause; or (iii) a reduction of the Executive’s Annual Direct Salary or material reduction in other employment benefits as provided in paragraph 4 hereof, excepting a reduction in the Executive’s Annual Direct Salary as a response to material adverse change in the financial position of the Bank; or (iv) failure of the Bank to comply with paragraph 5 hereof; or (v) any Change of Control (as defined herein).

The Bank shall also maintain in full force and effect, for the continued benefit of the Executive for the full term of this Agreement, all employee benefit plans and programs to which the Executive was entitled prior to the date of termination, if the Executive’s continued participation is possible under the general terms and provisions of such plans and programs except that if the Executive’s participation in any health, medical, life insurance, or disability plan or program is barred, the Bank shall obtain and pay for, on the Executive’s behalf, individual insurance plans, policies or programs which provide to the Executive health, medical, life and disability insurance coverage which is equivalent to the insurance coverage to which the Executive was entitled prior to the date of termination and the Bank shall have no further obligations to the Executive under this Agreement.

(c) In the event the Executive serves the full Initial Term of this Agreement or any subsequent term, and the Bank does not offer to renew this Agreement, the Executive shall have the right to receive the benefits hereunder applicable to such term, but at the end of such term the Executive shall not be entitled to any severance allowance whatsoever and the Bank shall have no further obligations to the Executive under this Agreement.
