WHEREAS, the Company has adopted and maintains the Suffolk Bancorp 2009 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), pursuant to which nonqualified stock options may be granted to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock; and

The Company hereby grants to Participant a nonqualified stock option (the “Option” and any portion thereof, the “Options”) to purchase 20,000 shares of Common Stock (such shares of Common Stock, the “Shares”), on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and as otherwise provided in the Plan. The Option is not intended to qualify as an incentive stock option within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”).

(b) Incorporation by Reference, Etc. The provisions of the Plan are hereby incorporated herein by reference. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the provisions of the Plan and any capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the definitions set forth in the Plan.

(b) Termination of Service. Except as provided in the immediately following sentence, in the event that Participant incurs a Termination of Service, any Options that have not theretofore become Vested Options (such Options, the “Unvested Options”) shall be forfeited without consideration by Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Participant incurs a Termination of Employment (i) by the Company without “Cause” (as defined in the Change of Control Agreement by and among Participant, The Suffolk County National Bank and the Company dated as of December 30, 2011 (the “Change of Control Agreement”), (ii) by Participant for “Good Reason” (as defined in the Change of Control Agreement), or (iii) due to Participant’s death or “Disability” (as defined in the Company’s long-term disability plan applicable to Participant as in effect from time to time), any Unvested Option that is outstanding as of immediately prior to such Termination of Employment shall vest and become exercisable in full effective as of the date of Termination of Employment.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4(a) to the contrary and unless a longer period is provided under Section 4(a), in the event of Participant’s Termination of Employment for any reason (other than due to a Termination of Employment for Cause) during the two-year period following a Change in Control, the Option shall remain outstanding and exercisable until the earlier of (i) the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date and (ii) the one year anniversary of such Termination of Employment.

(c) Except as otherwise provided in the Plan and Section 3(b) of this Agreement, upon a Termination of Employment for any reason, any Unvested Options shall immediately terminate and be forfeited on the date the Termination of Employment occurs.

Subject to the terms of this Agreement, including the provisions of Sections 2, 3 and 4 above and Section 10 below, Participant may exercise part or all of the Vested Option by giving the Company a signed written notice of intent to exercise in accordance with Section 11(b), which shall state Participant’s election to exercise the Option and the number of Shares in respect of which the Option is being exercised (which must be a whole number). Payment of the Exercise Price shall be by any of the following, or a combination of the following, at the election of Participant: (a) cash, (b) check or (c) reduction of the Shares issuable upon exercise, surrender of previously owned Shares, or to the extent permitted by law, broker-assisted cashless exercise. The Board may impose from time to time such limitations as it deems appropriate on the use of Shares of the Company to satisfy the Exercise Price of the Option.

6. Compliance with Legal Requirements. The grant and exercise of the Option, and any other obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall be subject to all applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations and to such approvals by any regulatory or governmental agency as may be required. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may postpone the issuance or delivery of Shares as the Committee may consider appropriate and may require Participant to make such representations and furnish such information as it may consider appropriate in connection with the issuance or delivery of the Shares in compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations.

7. Transferability. The Option may not be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by Participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and any such purported assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance shall be void and unenforceable against the Company, its Subsidiaries or Affiliates; provided that the designation of a beneficiary shall not constitute an assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance.

8. Adjustment. In the event of any event described in Section 3 of the Plan occurring after the Grant Date, the adjustment provisions as provided for under Section 3 of the Plan shall apply to the Option.

Participant or a transferee of the Option shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares covered by such Option until the date when his purchase is entered upon the records of the duly authorized transfer agent of the Company.

10. Tax Withholding. As a condition to exercising the Option, in whole or in part, Participant will pay to the Company, or, pursuant to the withholding provisions of Section 10 of the Plan, make provisions satisfactory to the Company for payment of, any federal, state or local tax laws in respect of the exercise of the Option. Participant may elect to have any withholding obligation satisfied by surrendering to the Company a portion of the Shares that are issued or transferred to Participant upon the exercise of any Options (but only to the extent of the minimum withholding required by law) and the Shares so surrendered by Participant shall be credited against any such withholding obligation at the Fair Market Value of such Shares on the date of such surrender (and the amount equal to the Fair Market Value of such Shares shall be remitted to the appropriate tax authorities).

11. Miscellaneous.

(a) Waiver and Amendment. The Committee may waive any conditions or rights under, or amend any terms of, this Agreement and the Option granted thereunder; provided that any such waiver or amendment that would materially impair the rights of Participant or any holder or beneficiary of any Option theretofore granted shall not to that extent be effective without the consent of Participant. No waiver of any right hereunder by any party shall operate as a waiver of any other right, or as a waiver of the same right with respect to any subsequent occasion for its exercise, or as a waiver of any right to damages. No waiver by any party of any breach of this Agreement shall be held to constitute a waiver of any other breach or a waiver of the continuation of the same breach.

(b) Notices. All notices, demands and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing and shall be by registered or certified first-class mail, return receipt requested, facsimile, courier service or personal delivery:

(c) Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, and each other provision of this Agreement shall be severable and enforceable to the extent permitted by law.

(d) No Rights to Service. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as giving Participant any right to be retained, in any position, as an employee, consultant or director of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, which is hereby expressly reserved, to remove, terminate or discharge Participant at any time for any reason whatsoever.

(e) Beneficiary. Participant may file with the Company a written designation of a beneficiary on such form as may be prescribed by the Committee and may, from time to time, change or revoke such designation by filing a new designation with the Company.
