Exhibit 10.12

AMENDMENT NO. 1

TO

EXECUTIVE SALARY CONTINUATION PLAN AGREEMENT

Reference is made to the CNB Bank Executive Salary Continuation Plan Agreement by and between CNB Bank (the “Company”) and Richard L. Greslick (the “Executive”) established effective January 1, 2013 (the “Plan”).

WHEREAS, Article 11 of the Plan provides that the Company and the Executive may at any time and in their sole discretion amend the Plan by a written instrument; and

WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive desire to amend the Plan, effective October 1, 2023, to replace the current annual benefit and accelerate the vesting of benefits under the Plan.

NOW, THEREFORE, pursuant to the provisions of Article 11 and every other power enabling it to do so, the Company, acting through its Board of Directors, and the Executive hereby amend the Plan, effective October 1, 2023, as follows:

1. The cover page is hereby amended by inserting the following new language under “Effective January 1, 2013”: “As Amended October 1, 2023”.

2. Section 2 (“Definitions”) is hereby amended by deleting the definition at subsection (a) and replacing it in its entirety with the following new language:

Accrued Benefit. “Accrued Benefit” means the amount of the Executive’s Normal Retirement Benefit that has vested in accordance with the schedule specified below for the Plan Year immediately prior to the date on which the Separation from Service occurs. Additionally, the Accrued Benefit shall be increased by a pro-rated amount relative to the Executive’s service during the partial Plan year in which the Separation from Service occurs. This amount will be added to the amount computed under the first sentence of this definition to determine the total Accrued Benefit. For example, assuming a Separation from Service occurs on January 31, 2031, the Accrued Benefit would be the sum of the vested benefit for the January 1 – December 31, 2030 Plan year plus a pro-rated portion of the benefit for the January 1 – December 31, 2031 Plan year.
