INFORMATION ABOUT VOTING

Who May Vote at the Meeting

You are entitled to vote your shares of Cincinnati
Bancorp common stock if our records show that you held your shares as of the close of business on March 31, 2021. As of the close of business
on that date, a total of 2,972,822 shares of common stock were outstanding. Each share of common stock has one vote.

Our Articles of Incorporation provide that record
holders of or common stock who beneficially own, either directly or indirectly, more than 10% of our outstanding shares of common stock
are not entitled to any vote with respect to the shares held in excess of the 10% limit.

Ownership of Shares

You may own your shares of common stock of Cincinnati
Bancorp in one or more of the following ways:

Directly in your name as stockholder of record;

Indirectly through a broker, bank or other holder of record in “street name”;

Indirectly through the Cincinnati Federal Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the “ESOP”);

Indirectly through the Cincinnati Federal 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan (the “401(k) Plan”); or

Indirectly through the Cincinnati Bancorp 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”).

If your shares are registered directly in your
name, you are the holder of record of those shares and we are sending these proxy materials directly to you. As the holder of record,
you have the right to give your proxy directly to us to vote at the annual meeting or you may vote in person at the annual meeting.

If you hold your shares in street name, your broker,
bank or other holder of record is sending these proxy materials to you. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker,
bank or other holder of record how to vote by completing a voting instruction form that accompanies your proxy materials. Your broker,
bank or other holder of record may allow you to provide voting instructions by telephone or by the Internet. Refer to the instruction
form provided by your broker, bank or other holder of record that accompanies your proxy materials. If you want to vote your shares of
common stock held in street name in person at the annual meeting, you must obtain a written proxy in your name from the broker, bank or
other holder who is the record holder of your shares.

If you have been awarded shares of restricted stock
under the Equity Incentive Plan which were unvested and non-forfeited as of the record date for the annual meeting, you have voting rights
with respect to those shares.

If you own shares of common stock indirectly through
the ESOP and/or the 401(k) Plan, see “Participants in the ESOP and/or 401(k) Plan” below.

Attending the Meeting

Any admittance to the meeting requires proof of
ownership of Cincinnati Bancorp common stock. Examples of proof of ownership are a recent brokerage account statement or a letter from
your bank or broker.

Quorum and Vote Required

Quorum.
We will have a quorum and be able to conduct the business of the annual meeting if a majority of the outstanding shares of Cincinnati
Bancorp common stock entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, are present at the meeting.

Votes
Required for Proposals. In voting on the election of directors (Item 1), you may vote in favor of the nominees or withhold
your vote as to the nominees. There is no cumulative voting for the election of directors. Directors must be elected by a plurality of
the votes cast at the annual meeting. This means that the nominees receiving the largest number of votes cast will be elected up to the
maximum number of directors to be elected at the annual meeting. The maximum number of directors to be elected at the annual meeting is
two.

In voting on the approval of the Cincinnati Bancorp,
Inc. 2021 Equity Inventive Plan (Item 2), you may vote in favor of the proposal, vote against the proposal, or abstain from voting. The
affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the annual meeting is required to approve this proposal.

In voting on the ratification of the appointment
of the independent registered public accounting firm (Item 3), you may vote in favor of the proposal, vote against the proposal, or abstain
from voting. The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the annual meeting and entitled to vote is required to approve this
proposal.

In voting on the proposal to approve the compensation
of the named executive officers (Item 4), you may vote in favor of the proposal, vote against the proposal or abstain from voting. To
approve the compensation of the named executive officers, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the annual meeting is
required.

In voting on the frequency of the stockholder vote
to approve the compensation of the named executive officers (Item 5), you may vote for a frequency of one, two or three years, or you
may abstain from voting. This proposal will be determined by a plurality of the votes cast.

Effect of Not Casting Your Vote

If you hold your shares in street name through
a broker, bank or other nominee of record, it is critical that you cast your vote if you want it to count in the election of directors
(Item 1), in the vote to approve the Cincinnati Bancorp, Inc. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (Item 2), in the advisory (non-binding) vote
regarding the compensation of the named executive officers (Item 4) and in the advisory (non-binding) vote regarding frequency of the
vote on the compensation of the named executive officers (Item 5). Your broker, bank or other holder of record does not have discretion
to vote your uninstructed shares with respect to these matters. Therefore, if you hold your shares in street name and you do not instruct
your broker or other holder of record on how to vote on Items 1, 2, 4 and 5, no votes will be cast on your behalf. These are referred
to as “broker non-votes.” Your broker, bank or other holder of record, however, does have discretion to vote any uninstructed
shares on the ratification of the appointment of the independent registered public accounting firm (Item 3). If you are a stockholder
of record and you do not cast your vote, no votes will be cast on your behalf on any of the items of business at the annual meeting.

How We Count the Votes

If you return valid proxy instructions or attend
the meeting in person, we will count your shares to determine whether there is a quorum, even if you abstain from voting. Broker non-votes
also will be counted to determine the existence of a quorum.

In counting votes for the election of directors,
votes that are withheld and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the election.

In counting votes on the proposal to ratify the
appointment of BKD, LLP to serve as the independent registered public accounting firm, we will not count abstentions and broker non-votes
as votes cast. Therefore, abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on the proposal. Similarly,
abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of either the advisory (non-binding) vote on the compensation of the
named executive officers or the advisory (non-binding) vote on the frequency of the stockholder advisory vote on the compensation of the
named executive officers.

Voting by Proxy

We are sending you this proxy statement to request
that you allow your shares of Cincinnati Bancorp common stock to be represented at the annual meeting by the designated proxies named
by the Board of Directors. All shares of Cincinnati Bancorp common stock represented at the annual meeting by properly executed and dated
proxies will be voted according to the instructions indicated on the proxy card. If you sign, date and return a proxy card without giving
voting instructions, your shares will be voted as recommended by our Board of Directors.

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends
a vote:

“FOR ALL” of the nominees for director;

“FOR” approval of the Cincinnati Bancorp,
Inc. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan;

“FOR” ratification of the appointment
of BKD, LLP to serve as the independent registered public accounting firm;

“FOR” approval of the compensation of
the named executive officers; and

“FOR” approval of a stockholder advisory (non-binding) vote on the compensation of the named executive officers
every one year. (Note: Stockholders are not voting to approve or disapprove of this recommendation.)

If any matters not described in this proxy statement
are properly presented at the annual meeting, the persons named in the proxy card will use their own best judgment as to how to vote your
shares. This would include a motion to adjourn or postpone the annual meeting to solicit additional proxies. If the annual meeting is
postponed or adjourned, your common stock may be voted by the persons named in the proxy card on the new meeting date as well, unless
you have revoked your proxy. We do not know of any other matters to be presented at the annual meeting.

Instead of voting by completing and mailing a proxy
card, registered stockholders can vote their shares of Cincinnati Bancorp common stock via the Internet or by telephone. The Internet
and telephone voting procedures are designed to authenticate stockholders’ identities, allow stockholders to provide their voting
instructions and confirm that their instructions have been recorded properly. Specific instructions for Internet and telephone voting
appear on the enclosed proxy card. The deadline for voting by Internet or by telephone is 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on May 19, 2021.

Revoking Your Proxy

Whether you vote by mail, by telephone or via the
Internet, if you are a registered stockholder, unless otherwise noted, you may later revoke your proxy by:

sending a written statement to that effect to our Corporate Secretary;

submitting a properly signed proxy card with a later date;

voting by telephone or via the Internet at a later time (if initially able to vote in that manner) so long as such vote is received
by the applicable time and date set forth above for registered stockholders; or

voting in person at the annual meeting (Note: Attendance at the annual meeting will not, in itself, constitute revocation of
your proxy).

If you hold your shares through a bank, broker,
trustee or nominee and you have instructed the bank, broker, trustee or nominee to vote your shares, you must follow the directions received
from you bank, broker, trustee or nominee to change those instructions.

Participants in the ESOP and/or 401(k) Plan

If you participate in the ESOP, you will receive
a voting instruction card that reflects all shares that you may direct the trustees to vote on your behalf under the ESOP. Under the terms
of the ESOP, the ESOP trustee votes all shares held by the ESOP, but each participant in the ESOP may direct the trustee how to vote the
shares of common stock allocated to his or her account. The ESOP trustee, subject to the exercise of its fiduciary duties, will vote all
unallocated shares of common stock held by the ESOP and all allocated shares for which no timely voting instructions are received in the
same proportion as shares for which it has received valid voting instructions.

If you hold Cincinnati Bancorp common stock in
the 401(k) Plan, you will receive a voting instruction card that reflects all shares that you may direct the 401(k) Plan trustee to vote
on your behalf under the 401(k) Plan. Under the terms of the 401(k) Plan, you may direct the 401(k) Plan trustee how to vote the shares
allocated to your account. If the 401(k) Plan trustee does not receive your voting instructions, the 401(k) Plan trustee will be instructed
to vote your shares in the same proportion as the voting instructions received from other 401(k) Plan participants. The deadline for
returning your voting instruction cards is May 13, 2021.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

General

Cincinnati Bancorp periodically reviews its corporate
governance policies and procedures to ensure that it meets the highest standards of ethical conduct, reports results with accuracy and
transparency and fully complies with the laws, rules and regulations that govern its operations. As part of this periodic corporate governance
review, the Board of Directors reviews and adopts best corporate governance policies and practices for Cincinnati Bancorp.

Director Independence

The Board of Directors currently consists of six
members. Because our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market, we refer to the definition of “independent director”
contained in the listing standards of the NASDAQ Stock Market when determining the independence of our directors. All our directors are
considered independent under the listing standards of the NASDAQ Stock Market, except for Robert A. Bedinghaus who is employed by us in
his capacity as Chief Executive Officer. In determining the independence of directors, the Board of Directors has considered transactions,
relationships and arrangements between Cincinnati Bancorp and its directors that are not required to be disclosed in this proxy statement
under the heading “Other Information Relating to Directors and Executive Officers—Transactions with Related Persons.”

Board Leadership Structure and Board’s Role in Risk Oversight

Since January 1, 2020, the Board of Directors has
combined the offices of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, with Robert A. Bedinghaus serving in those capacities. The
Board of Directors believes this structure provides an efficient and effective leadership model for Cincinnati Bancorp. Combining the
offices of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer fosters clear accountability, effective decision-making, alignment on corporate
strategy, and a clear and direct channel of communication between senior management and the full Board of Directors. Each other member
of the Board of Directors is considered independent under the listing requirements of the NASDAQ Stock Market. Accordingly, the Board
of Directors has determined that the full Board of Directors, of which five of six members are independent directors, is able to fulfill
its fundamental role of providing advice to and independent oversight of management.

To further strengthen the regular oversight of
the full Board of Directors, the standing committees of the Board of Directors are comprised solely of independent directors. These committees
are the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. See “Committees of
the Board of Directors.”

Risk is inherent with every business, and how well
a business manages risk can ultimately determine its success. We face several risks, including credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity
risk, operational risk, strategic risk and reputation risk. Management is responsible for the day-to-day management of risks Cincinnati
Bancorp faces, while the Board of Directors, as a whole and through its committees, has responsibility for the oversight of risk management.
In its risk oversight role, the Board of Directors has the responsibility to satisfy itself that the risk management processes designed
and implemented by management are adequate and functioning as designed. Senior management also attends Board meetings and is available
to address any questions or concerns raised by the Board of Directors on risk management and any other matters.

Committees of the Board of Directors

The following table identifies our standing committees
and their members. The members of the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
are considered independent according to the relevant listing standards of the Nasdaq Stock Market. The charter of each committee is available
in the Investor Relations section of the Bank’s website (www.cincinnatifederal.com).

Audit
Committee. The Audit Committee is established according to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended. The Audit Committee meets periodically with the independent registered public accounting firm and management to review accounting,
auditing, internal control structure and financial reporting matters. The Board of Directors has determined that Andrew J. Nurre, CPA
is an “audit committee financial expert” under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The report of the Audit
Committee required by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission is included in this proxy statement. See “Report of
the Audit Committee.”

Compensation
Committee. The Compensation Committee approves the compensation objectives for Cincinnati Bancorp and the Bank, establishes
the compensation for Cincinnati Bancorp’s and Bank’s senior management and conducts the performance review of the President.
The Compensation Committee reviews all components of compensation, including salaries, cash incentive plans, long-term incentive plans
and various employee benefit matters. The Committee also assists the Board of Directors in evaluating potential candidates for executive
positions.

Nominating
and Corporate Governance Committee. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee assists the Board of Directors in:
(i) identifying individuals qualified to become Board members, consistent with criteria approved by the Board; (ii) recommending to the
Board the director nominees for the next annual meeting; (iii) implementing policies and practices relating to corporate governance,
including implementation of and monitoring adherence to corporate governance guidelines; (iv) leading the Board in its annual review
of the Board’s performance; and (v) recommending director nominees for each committee.

Minimum
Qualifications for Director Nominees. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has adopted a set of criteria that
it considers when it selects individuals to be nominated for election to the Board of Directors. A candidate must meet the eligibility
requirements set forth in our Bylaws, which include a requirement that the candidate had not been subject to certain criminal or regulatory
actions. A candidate also must meet any qualification requirements set forth in any Board of Directors or committee governing documents.

If a candidate is deemed eligible for election
to the Board of Directors, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will then evaluate the following criteria in selecting nominees:

contributions to the range of talent, skill and expertise of the Board of Directors;

financial, regulatory and business experience, knowledge of the banking and financial service industries, familiarity with the operations
of public companies and ability to read and understand financial statements;

familiarity with our market area and participation in and ties to local businesses and local civic, charitable and religious organizations;

personal and professional integrity, honesty and reputation;

the ability to represent the best interests of our stockholders and the best interests of Cincinnati Bancorp;

the ability to devote sufficient time and energy to the performance of his or her duties; and

independence, as that term is defined under applicable Securities and Exchange Commission and stock exchange listing criteria.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
also will consider any other factors it deems relevant, including diversity, competition, size of the Board of Directors and regulatory
disclosure obligations.

When nominating an existing director for re-election
to the Board of Directors, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider and review an existing director’s attendance
and performance at Board meetings and at meetings of committees on which he serves; length of Board service; the experience, skills and
contributions that the existing director brings to the Board; and independence.

Director
Nomination Process. The process that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee follows to identify and evaluate
individuals to be nominated for election to the Board of Directors is as follows:

For purposes of identifying nominees for the Board
of Directors, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee relies on personal contacts of the committee members and other members
of the Board of Directors, as well as its knowledge of members of the communities the Bank serves. The Nominating and Corporate Governance
Committee will also consider director candidates recommended by stockholders according to the policy and procedures set forth below. The
Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has not used an independent search firm to identify nominees.

In evaluating potential nominees, the Nominating
and Corporate Governance Committee determines whether the candidate is eligible and qualified for service on the Board of Directors by
evaluating the candidate under the criteria set forth above. If such individual fulfills these criteria, the Nominating and Corporate
Governance Committee will conduct a check of the individual’s background and interview the candidate to further assess the qualities
of the prospective nominee and the contributions he or she would make to the Board.

Consideration
of Director Candidates Recommended by Stockholders. The policy of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is
to consider director candidates recommended by stockholders who appear to be qualified to serve on the Board of Directors. The Nominating
and Corporate Governance Committee may choose not to consider an unsolicited recommendation if no vacancy exists on the Board of Directors
and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not perceive a need to increase the size of the Board of Directors. To avoid
the unnecessary use of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s resources, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
will consider only those director candidates recommended in accordance with the procedures set forth below.

Procedures
to be Followed by Stockholders. To submit a recommendation of a director candidate to the Nominating and Corporate Governance
Committee, a stockholder should submit the following information in writing, addressed to the Chairman of the Nominating and Corporate
Governance Committee, care of the Corporate Secretary, at our main office:

A statement that the writer is a stockholder and is proposing a candidate for consideration by the Nominating and Corporate Governance
Committee;

The name and address of the stockholder as they appear on Cincinnati Bancorp’s books, and of the beneficial owner, if any, on
whose behalf the nomination is made;

The class or series and number of shares of Cincinnati Bancorp capital stock that are owned beneficially or of record by such stockholder
and such beneficial owner;

A description of all arrangements or understandings between such stockholder and each proposed nominee and any other person or persons
(including their names) pursuant to which the nomination(s) are to be made by such stockholder;

A representation that such stockholder intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to nominate the nominee named in the
stockholder’s notice;

The name, age, personal and business address of the candidate, the principal occupation or employment of the candidate;

The candidate’s written consent to serve as a director;

A statement of the candidate’s business and educational experience and all other information relating to such person that would
indicates such person’s qualification to serve on the Board of Directors; and

Such other information regarding the candidate or the stockholder as would be required to be included in Cincinnati Bancorp’s
proxy statement pursuant to Regulation 14A of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

For a director candidate to be considered for nomination
at Cincinnati Bancorp’s annual meeting of stockholders, the recommendation must be received by the Nominating and Corporate Governance
Committee at least 120 calendar days before the date on which Cincinnati Bancorp’s proxy statement for the previous year’s
annual meeting was released to stockholders, advanced by one year.

Board and Committee Meetings

The business of Cincinnati Bancorp and the Bank
is conducted through meetings and activities of their respective Boards of Directors and committees. During the fiscal year ended December
31, 2020, the Board of Directors of Cincinnati Bancorp held six meetings and the Board of Directors of the Bank held 14 meetings. No director
attended fewer than 75% of the total meetings of the Boards of Directors and of the committees on which he served.

Director Attendance at Annual Meeting

All of our directors then serving attended last
year’s annual meeting of stockholders.

Codes of Ethics

We have adopted a Code of Ethics
for Senior Officers and a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. Both are designed to ensure that our directors and employees meet the
highest standards of ethical conduct. The Code of Ethics for Senior Officers, which applies to our principal executive officer and principal
financial officer, addresses conflicts of interest, the treatment of confidential information, and compliance with applicable laws, rules
and regulations The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which applies to all employees and directors, addresses conflicts of interest,
the treatment of confidential information, general employee conduct and compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations. In addition,
both codes are designed to deter wrongdoing and promote honest and ethical conduct, the avoidance of conflicts of interest, full and
accurate disclosure and compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. The Code of Ethics for Senior Officers and the Code
of Business Conduct and Ethics are available in the Investor Relations section of the Bank’s website (www.cincinnatifederal.com).

Report
of the Audit Committee

Cincinnati Bancorp’s management is responsible
for Cincinnati Bancorp’s internal control over financial reporting. The independent registered public accounting firm is responsible
for performing an independent audit of our consolidated financial statements and issuing an opinion on the conformity of those financial
statements with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Audit Committee oversees Cincinnati Bancorp’s
internal controls and financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Directors.

In this context, the Audit Committee has met and
held discussions with management and the independent registered public accounting firm. Management represented to the Audit Committee
that Cincinnati Bancorp’s consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America, and the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the consolidated financial statements with management
and with the independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee has discussed with the independent registered public accounting
firm the matters required to be discussed by Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) Auditing Standard No. 1301, Communications
with Audit Committees, which include the quality, and not just the acceptability, of the accounting principles, the reasonableness
of significant judgments and the clarity of the disclosures in the financial statements.

In addition, the Audit Committee has received the
written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required by the applicable requirements of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the firm’s independence
from Cincinnati Bancorp and its management. In concluding that the independent registered public accounting firm is independent, the Audit
Committee considered, among other factors, whether the non-audit services provided by the firm were compatible with its independence.

The Audit Committee discussed with the independent
registered public accounting firm the overall scope and plans for their audit. The Audit Committee meets with the independent registered
public accounting firm, with and without management present, to discuss the results of their examination, their evaluation of Cincinnati
Bancorp’s internal control over financial reporting and the overall quality of its financial reporting process.

In performing
these functions, the Audit Committee acts only in an oversight capacity. In its oversight role, the Audit Committee relies on the work
and assurances of management, which has the primary responsibility for financial statements and reports, and of the independent registered
public accounting firm who, in their report, express an opinion on the conformity of Cincinnati Bancorp’s financial statements to
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Audit Committee’s oversight does not provide it with
an independent basis to determine that management has maintained appropriate accounting and financial reporting principles or policies,
or appropriate internal control over financial reporting designed to assure compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and
regulations. Furthermore, the Audit Committee’s considerations and discussions with management and the independent registered public
accounting firm do not assure that Cincinnati Bancorp’s financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America, that the audit of the financial statements has been carried out in accordance with
the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board or that the independent registered public accounting firm is in fact “independent.”

In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred
to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors, and the Board of Directors has approved, that the audited consolidated
financial statements be included in Cincinnati Bancorp’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for filing

Director
Retirement Plan. The Bank sponsors a director retirement plan for its non-employee directors. An individual who
becomes a director after July 1, 2014, may not become a participant in the plan until he has completed 12 years of service on the Board
of Directors. Mr. Bedinghaus’ benefit under the director retirement plan was frozen as of the date he became an employee of the
Bank and will remain frozen until he may again become a non-employee director.

Under the plan, a director who remains in service
until his “benefit age” (as specified on a separate individual joinder agreement entered into with each participating director)
becomes entitled to a retirement benefit. The benefit age for each of the current participants is age 75. The retirement benefit equals
50% of the director’s average annual fees paid for his services as a non-employee director for the five calendar years during which
the director received the highest fees. The retirement benefit is paid in ten annual installments commencing within 30 days following
the director’s attainment of his benefit eligibility date. A director’s benefit eligibility date generally means the earlier
of (i) the date of the director’s separation from service after attaining his benefit age, (ii) the later of the date of his separation
from service or age 70, if his separation from service occurs before his benefit age, (iii) the date he becomes disabled, (iv) the date
he dies, or (v) the date on which he has a separation from service within two years of a change in control.

If a director separates from service before attaining
his retirement age and other than for cause, death or disability or within two years of a change in control, he becomes entitled to his
accrued benefit, payable at his benefit eligibility date in ten installments. If a director separates from service within two years of
a change in control, he becomes entitled to his retirement benefit, in a lump sum (unless he has timely elected a different form of payment).
If the director becomes disabled before attaining his benefit age, he will become entitled to a disability benefit. If the director has
less than 15 years of service at the time of his disability, the benefit equals the director’s accrued benefit at the time of his
disability. If the director has completed 15 years or more of service, the disability benefit equals the present value of the retirement
benefit the director would have received had he continued in service until his benefit age and become disabled immediately thereafter.
We will pay the benefit in a lump sum within 30 days of the director becoming disabled. If a director terminates service for “cause,”
he will not be entitled to any benefit under the plan.

If a director dies after he
begins receiving benefits but before receiving all benefit payments under the plan, we will pay his beneficiary the remaining
payments at the same time the director would have received them had he survived. If a director dies while in service before
attaining his benefit age, his beneficiary will become entitled to a survivor benefit. If the director has less than 15 years of
service at the time of his death, the survivor benefit equals the director’s accrued benefit at the time of his death. If the
director has completed 15 years or more of service, the survivor benefit equals the retirement benefit the director would have
received had he continued in service until his benefit age and died immediately thereafter.

To qualify for benefits under the plan, directors
must adhere to certain non-competition obligations for two years following a separation from service. These obligations do not apply following
a change in control.

as a director of Cincinnati Bancorp and the Bank.

The Board of Directors intends to vote the proxies
solicited by it in favor of the election of all the nominees named above. If any nominee is unable to serve, the persons named in the

of Directors may adopt a resolution to reduce the size of the Board of Directors. At this time, the Board of Directors knows of no reason
why any nominee might be unable to serve.

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends
that you vote “FOR ALL” of the nominees for director.

Item 2 — Approval of Cincinnati Bancorp,
Inc. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan

The Board of Directors has adopted, subject to
stockholder approval, the Cincinnati Bancorp, Inc. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Equity Incentive Plan”). The Board
of Directors believes the adoption of the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan is in the best interests of Cincinnati Bancorp and its stockholders
as a means of providing Cincinnati Bancorp and Cincinnati Federal with the ability to retain, reward, attract and incentivize employees
and directors in order to promote growth, improve performance and further align their interests with those of stockholders of Cincinnati
Bancorp through the ownership of additional shares of common stock of Cincinnati Bancorp.

Why We Are Seeking Approval of the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan

Many companies with which we compete for directors
and employees, including management-level employees, are stockholder-owned companies that offer equity compensation as part of their overall
compensation programs. By approving the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan, our stockholders will give us the flexibility we need to continue
to attract and retain highly-qualified employees and directors by offering competitive compensation programs linked, in part, to the performance
of our common stock. In addition, the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan will further align the interests of our directors and employees, including
our officers, with the interests of our stockholders by potentially increasing the ownership interests of our directors and employees
in the common stock of Cincinnati Bancorp.

We have no shares remaining for grant under the
Cincinnati Bancorp 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2017 Equity Incentive Plan”). All shares are available for the grant of
stock options and for the grant of restricted stock or restricted stock units have been distributed. Accordingly, we have no way to continue
to provide equity-based compensation grants to attract, retain and reward qualified personnel and management.

We completed our second-step mutual-to-stock conversion
in January 2020. As part of the second-step conversion, we sold a total of 1,652,960 shares of common stock and raised approximately $16.5
million in gross proceeds from the stock offering. A substantial majority of financial institutions that complete a mutual-to-stock conversion
have adopted equity-based incentive plans following their conversions. Our offering prospectus indicated our intent to adopt an equity
incentive plan at some point following the mutual-to-stock conversion and described the regulatory requirements potentially applicable
to an equity plan. Our prospectus also included the pro forma effect of awards granted under a future equity incentive plan.

Highlights of the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan

Share Reserve and Terms Generally Consistent with Banking Regulations and Industry Standards. In determining the size and terms
of the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan, the Board of Directors and Compensation Committee considered a number of factors, including: (1) industry
practices related to the adoption of equity-incentive plans by financial institutions following a mutual-to-stock conversion; and (2)
applicable banking regulations related to the adoption of equity-incentive plans by converted financial institutions in certain circumstances.
In this regard (and as described below), the maximum number of shares of common stock available under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan for
delivery pursuant to the exercise of stock options equals 10% of the number of shares of common stock sold in the stock offering and the maximum
number of shares of common stock that may be issued as restricted stock or restricted stock units equals 4% of the number of shares of
common stock sold in the stock offering.

Minimum Vesting Periods for Awards. Subject to limited exceptions for death, disability or an involuntary termination without
cause at or following a change in control, the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan requires that at least 95% of the awards granted under the plan
vest not more rapidly than over a period of one year. Unless otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee, awards will vest at a
rate of 20% per year.

Limits on Grants to Directors and Employees. The maximum number of shares of common
stock that may be delivered to any one non-employee director pursuant to the exercise of stock options and pursuant to the award of shares
of restricted stock or restricted stock units under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan is 5% (30% in the aggregate for all non-employee directors)
of the shares available under the plan for grant of stock options and shares of restricted stock or restricted stock units, respectively.
The maximum number of shares of common stock that may be delivered to any one employee pursuant to the exercise of stock options and pursuant
to the award of shares of restricted stock or restricted stock units under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan is 25% of the shares available
under the plan for grant of stock options and shares of restricted stock or restricted stock units, respectively.

Share Counting. The 2021 Equity Incentive Plan provides that, if an individual forfeits an option or award or if the period
to exercise an option expires, the shares covered by the option or award will again become available for future grants. Shares withheld
to cover taxes or used to pay the exercise price of stock options will not be available for future grants.

No Repricing. The 2021 Equity Incentive Plan prohibits repricing and the exchange of underwater options for cash or shares
without stockholder approval.

No Single-Trigger Vesting of Time-Based Awards. The 2021 Equity Incentive Plan does not provide for the accelerated vesting
of time-based equity awards that are assumed by an acquiring corporation of Cincinnati Bancorp upon the occurrence of a change in control
(i.e., no single trigger vesting), without an accompanying involuntary termination of service (including a termination for good reason).

General

The following information summarizes the material
features of the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan, which is qualified in its entirety by reference to the provisions of the 2021 Equity Incentive
Plan, which is attached hereto as Appendix A. If there is a conflict between the terms of this disclosure and the terms of the
2021 Equity Incentive Plan, the terms of the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan will control.

Subject to permitted
adjustments for certain corporate transactions, the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan authorizes the issuance or delivery to participants
of up to 231,414 shares of Cincinnati Bancorp common stock pursuant to grants of incentive and non-qualified stock options,
restricted stock awards and restricted stock units. Of this number, the maximum number of shares of common stock we may issue under
the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan pursuant to the exercise of stock options is 165,296 shares, and the maximum number of shares of
common stock we may issue as restricted stock awards or restricted stock units is 66,118 shares. These
amounts represent 10.0% and 4.0%, respectively, of the number of shares of common stock issued and sold in the stock
offering.

The Compensation Committee will administer the
2021 Equity Incentive Plan. The Compensation Committee has full and exclusive power within the limitations set forth in the 2021 Equity
Incentive Plan to make all decisions and determinations regarding: (1) the selection of participants and the granting of awards; (2) establishing
the terms and conditions relating to each award; (3) adopting rules, regulations and guidelines for carrying out the purposes of the plan;
and (4) interpreting the provisions of the plan and award agreements. The 2021 Equity Incentive Plan also permits the Compensation Committee
to delegate all or part of its responsibilities and powers to any person or persons selected by it. The Compensation Committee may, subject
to the limitations set forth in the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan, grant stock options and awards of restricted stock or restricted stock
units to themselves and other members of the Board of Directors.

Except for accelerating the vesting of awards to
avoid the minimum vesting requirements specified in the plan or accelerating the vesting requirements applicable to an award as a result
of or in connection with a change in control, the Compensation Committee has the authority to reduce, eliminate or accelerate any restrictions
or vesting requirements applicable to an award at any time after the grant of the award or to extend the time period to exercise a stock
option, provided the extension complies with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

Eligibility

All employees, directors and service providers
of Cincinnati Bancorp and its subsidiaries, including Cincinnati Federal, are eligible to receive awards under the 2021 Equity Incentive
Plan, except that non-employees may not receive incentive stock options under the plan. As of April 7, 2021 (the latest practicable date
before the printing of this proxy statement), there were five non-employee directors and 75 employees of Cincinnati Bancorp and its subsidiary,
Cincinnati Federal, eligible to receive awards under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan.

Types of Awards

The Compensation Committee may determine the type
and terms and conditions of awards under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan. Awards will be evidenced by award agreements approved by the
Compensation Committee and delivered to participants. The award agreements will set forth the terms and conditions of each award. The
Compensation Committee may grant incentive and non-qualified stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units under the
plan.

Stock Options. A stock
option gives the recipient or “optionee” the right to purchase shares of common stock at a specified price for a specified
period of time. The exercise price may not be less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. “Fair Market
Value” for purposes of the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan means, if the common stock of Cincinnati Bancorp is listed on a securities
exchange, the closing sales price of the common stock or, if the common stock was not traded on a specific date, then on the immediately
preceding date on which sales were reported. If the common stock is not traded on a securities exchange, the Compensation Committee will
determine the fair market value in good faith and on the basis of objective criteria consistent with the requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code. Stock Options may not have a term longer than ten years from the date of grant.

Stock options are either
“incentive” stock options or “non-qualified” stock options. Incentive stock options have certain tax
advantages and must comply with the requirements of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. Only employees are eligible to receive
incentive stock options. Shares of common stock purchased upon the exercise of a stock option must be paid for in full at the time
of exercise: (1) either in cash or with stock valued at fair market value as of the day of exercise;
(2) by a “cashless exercise” through a third party; (3) by a net settlement of the stock option using a portion of the
shares obtained on exercise in payment of the exercise price; (4) by personal, certified or cashiers’ check; (5) by other
property deemed acceptable by the Compensation Committee; or (6) by a combination of the foregoing. Stock options are subject to
vesting conditions and restrictions as determined by the Compensation Committee.

Restricted Stock. A restricted
stock award is a grant of common stock to a participant for no consideration, or any minimum consideration that may be required by applicable
law. Restricted stock awards under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan will be granted only in whole shares of common stock and are subject
to vesting conditions and other restrictions established by the Compensation Committee consistent with the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan.
Before awards vest, unless otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee, the recipient of a restricted stock award may exercise
voting rights with respect to the common stock subject to the award. Unless otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee, cash dividends
paid on unvested awards will be distributed to the participant at the time the dividend is paid on the underlying common stock.

Restricted Stock Units. Restricted
stock units are similar to restricted stock awards in that the value of a restricted stock unit is denominated in shares of common stock.
However, unlike a restricted stock award, no shares of stock are transferred to the participant until certain requirements or conditions
associated with the award are satisfied. The limitation on the number of restricted stock awards available under the 2021 Equity Incentive
Plan also applies to restricted stock units.

Limitations on Awards Under the Equity Incentive Plan

The following limits apply to awards under the
2021 Equity Incentive Plan:

The maximum number of shares of common stock available for awards under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan equals 231,414 shares, of which
up to 165,296 shares of common stock may be delivered pursuant to the exercise of stock options and 66,118 shares of common stock may
be issued pursuant to restricted stock awards or restricted stock units.

The maximum number of shares of common stock that may be delivered to any one employee pursuant to the exercise of stock options and
pursuant to restricted stock awards or restricted stock units is 41,324 shares and 16,529 shares, respectively (all of which may be granted
in any one calendar year). These maximum amounts represent 25% of the maximum number of shares of common stock that may be delivered pursuant
to the exercise of stock options and 25% of the number of shares of common stock that may be issued pursuant to restricted stock awards
or restricted stock units.

The maximum number of shares of common stock that may be delivered to any one non-employee director pursuant to the exercise of stock
options and the issuance of restricted stock awards or restricted stock units is 8,264 shares and 3,305 shares, respectively (all of which
may be granted in any one calendar year). These maximum amounts represent 5% of the maximum number of shares of common stock that may
be delivered pursuant to the exercise of stock options and 5% of the maximum number of shares of common stock that may be issued pursuant
to restricted stock awards or restricted stock units. The Compensation Committee may, subject to these limitations and any other applicable
limitations set forth in the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan, grant stock options and awards of restricted stock or restricted stock units to themselves and
other members of the Board of Directors.

The maximum number of shares of common stock that may be delivered to all non-employee directors, in the aggregate, pursuant to the
exercise of stock options and the issuance of restricted stock awards or restricted stock units is 49,588 shares and 19,835 shares, respectively
(all of which may be granted in any one calendar year). These maximum amounts represent 30% of the maximum number of shares of common
stock that may be delivered pursuant to the exercise of stock options and 30% of the maximum number of shares of common stock that may
be issued pursuant to restricted stock awards or restricted stock units.

Non-employee directors, listed below, who are in the service of Cincinnati Bancorp
as of the annual stockholder meeting will automatically receive initial grants of 8,250 stock options (which represents approximately
5% of the maximum number of stock options available for grant) and 3,300 restricted stock awards (which represents 5% of the maximum number
of restricted stock awards available for grant). The awards will vest at the rate of 20% per year commencing on the first anniversary
of the date of grant.

If there is a corporate transaction involving the
stock of Cincinnati Bancorp (including, without limitation, any stock dividend, stock split or other special and nonrecurring dividend
or distribution, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, spin-off, combination or exchange of shares), the Compensation
Committee will, in an equitable manner, adjust the number and kind of securities available for grants of stock options, restricted stock
awards or restricted stock units, the number and kind of securities that may be delivered or deliverable with respect to outstanding stock
options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units, and the exercise price of stock options.

In addition, the Compensation Committee is authorized
to make certain other adjustments to the terms and conditions of stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units consistent
with the terms of the plan.

The closing sale price of Cincinnati Bancorp’s
common stock as quoted on the NASDAQ Capital Market on April 7, 2021 (the latest practicable date before the printing of this proxy statement)
was $13.10 per share.

Prohibition Against Repricing of Options.
The 2021 Equity Incentive Plan provides that neither the Compensation Committee nor the Board of Directors may make any adjustment or
amendment to the plan or an award that reduces or would have the effect of reducing the exercise price of a previously granted stock option.

Prohibition on Transfer. Generally,
all awards, except non-qualified stock options, granted under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan are not transferable, except by will or in
accordance with the laws of intestate succession. Awards may be transferable pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order. At the
Compensation Committee’s sole discretion, an individual may transfer non-qualified stock options for valid estate planning purposes
in a manner consistent with the Internal Revenue Code and federal securities laws. During the life of the participant, only the participant
may exercise stock options. However, a participant may designate a beneficiary to exercise stock options or receive any rights that may
exist upon the participant’s death with respect to awards granted under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan.

Performance Measures

The Compensation Committee may use performance
measures for vesting purposes with respect to awards granted under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan. The performance measures may include
one or more of the following: book value or tangible book value per share; basic earnings per share (e.g., earnings before
interest and taxes, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization; or earnings per share); basic cash earnings per share;
diluted earnings per share; return on assets; cash return on assets; return on equity; cash return on equity; return on tangible equity;

compliance or safety and soundness; achievement of balance sheet or income statement objectives and strategic business objectives, or
any combination of these or other measures determined by the Compensation Committee.

The Compensation Committee may base the measures
on the performance of Cincinnati Bancorp as a whole or of any one or more subsidiaries or business units and may measure performance relative
to a peer group, an index or a business plan. Performance measures may be considered as absolute measures or changes in measures. In establishing
performance measures, the Compensation Committee may provide for the inclusion or exclusion of certain items.

Dividend Equivalents

The Compensation Committee is authorized to grant
dividend equivalents with respect to restricted stock units available under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan. A dividend equivalent right
confers on the participant the right to receive payments equal to cash dividends or distributions with respect to all or a portion of
the number of shares of stock subject to the award. Unless otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee, the dividend equivalent
right will be paid at the time the award is settled.

Vesting of Awards

The Compensation Committee will specify the vesting
schedule or conditions of each award. Unless the Compensation Committee specifies a different vesting schedule at the time of grant, awards
under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan, other than performance awards, will be granted with a vesting rate not exceeding 20% per year, with
the initial installment vesting no earlier than the one-year anniversary of the date of grant. If the vesting of an award under the 2021
Equity Incentive Plan is conditioned on the completion of a specified period of service with Cincinnati Bancorp or its subsidiaries, without
the achievement of performance measures or objectives, then the required period of service for full vesting will be determined by the
Compensation Committee and evidenced in an award agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan,
at least 95% of the awards available under the plan may not vest more rapidly than over a period of one year, unless accelerated due to
death, disability or an involuntary termination of employment or service at or following a change in control. Unless otherwise determined
by the Compensation Committee, vesting will accelerate upon death, disability, an involuntary termination of employment or service at
or following a change in control or, subject to the foregoing requirements and in a manner consistent with the plan, at the discretion
of the Compensation Committee.

Change in Control

Unless otherwise provided in an award agreement,
at the time of an involuntary termination of employment or service at or following a change in control, all stock options then held by
the participant will become fully earned and exercisable (subject to the expiration provisions otherwise applicable to the stock option).
All stock options may be exercised for a period of one year following the participant’s involuntary termination, provided, however,
that no stock option will be eligible for treatment as an incentive stock option if the individual exercises the stock option more than
three months following involuntary termination of employment. At the time of an involuntary termination of employment or service at or
following a change in control, all awards of restricted stock and restricted stock units will immediately become fully vested. If there
is a change in control, any performance measures will be deemed satisfied at the “target” level as of the date of the change
in control and vest pro-rata based on the portion of the performance period elapsed at the date of the change in control, unless data
supports and the Compensation Committee certifies that the performance measures have been achieved at a level higher than the target level
as of the effective date of the change in control, in which case, the performance award will vest at the higher level.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an acquiring
corporation of Cincinnati Bancorp or Cincinnati Federal fails to assume the awards granted under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan or fails
to convert the awards to awards for the acquiring corporation’s stock options, restricted stock or restricted stock units, the awards
will vest immediately at the effective time of the change in control.

Amendment and Termination

The Board of Directors may, at any time, amend
or terminate the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan or any award granted under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan, provided that, except as provided
in the plan, no amendment or termination may adversely impair the rights of a participant or beneficiary under an award without the participant’s
(or the affected beneficiary’s) written consent. The Board of Directors may not amend the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan to materially
increase the benefits accruing to participants under the plan, materially increase the aggregate number of securities that may be issued
under the plan (other than as provided in the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan), or materially modify the requirements for participation in
the plan, without approval of stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Compensation Committee may amend the 2021 Equity Incentive
Plan or any award agreement, to take effect retroactively or otherwise, to conform the plan or an award agreement to current or future
law or to avoid an accounting treatment resulting from an accounting pronouncement or interpretation issued by the Securities and Exchange
Commission or Financial Accounting Standards Board subsequent to the adoption of the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan, or the making of the
award affected thereby, which, in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee, may materially and adversely affect the financial
condition or results of operations of Cincinnati Bancorp.

Duration of Plan

The 2021 Equity Incentive Plan will become effective
upon approval by the stockholders at the annual stockholder meeting. The 2021 Equity Incentive Plan will remain in effect as long as any
award under it is outstanding; however, no awards may be granted under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan on or after the ten-year anniversary
of the effective date of the plan. As discussed above, at any time, the Board of Directors may terminate the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan.

Federal Income Tax Considerations

The following is a summary of the current federal
income tax consequences with respect to awards under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan:

Non-Qualified Stock Options. The
grant of a non-qualified stock option will not result in taxable income to the participant. Except as described below, the participant
will recognize ordinary income at the time of exercise in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares acquired
over the exercise price for those shares, and Cincinnati Bancorp will be entitled to a corresponding deduction for tax purposes. Gains
or losses realized by the individual upon disposition of the acquired shares will be treated as capital gains and losses, with the cost
basis in the shares equal to the fair market value of the shares at the time of exercise.

Incentive Stock Options. The grant
of an incentive stock option will not result in taxable income to the participant. The exercise of an incentive stock option also will
not result in taxable income to the participant, provided the participant was, without a break in service, an employee of Cincinnati Bancorp
or a subsidiary during the period beginning on the date of the grant of the option and ending on the date three months before the date
of exercise (one year before the date of exercise if the participant becomes disabled, as that term is defined in the Internal Revenue
Code).

The excess of the fair market value of the shares
at the time of the exercise of an incentive stock option over the exercise price is an adjustment that is included in the calculation
of the participant’s alternative minimum taxable income for the tax year in which the incentive stock option is exercised. For purposes
of determining the participant’s alternative minimum tax liability for the year of disposition of the shares acquired pursuant to
the incentive stock option exercise, the participant will have a basis in those shares equal to the fair market value of the shares at
the time of exercise.

If the participant does not sell or otherwise dispose
of the shares within two years from the date of the grant of the incentive stock option or within one year after the exercise of the stock
option, then, upon disposition of the acquired shares, any amount realized in excess of the exercise price will be taxed as a capital
gain. A capital loss will be recognized to the extent that the amount realized is less than the exercise price. If these holding period
requirements are not met, the participant will generally recognize ordinary income at the time of the disposition of the shares, in an
amount equal to the lesser of: (1) the excess of the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise over the exercise price;
or (2) the excess, if any, of the amount realized upon disposition of the shares over the exercise price, and Cincinnati Bancorp will
be entitled to a corresponding deduction. If the amount realized exceeds the value of the shares on the date of exercise, any additional
amount will be a capital gain. If the amount realized is less than the exercise price, the participant will recognize no income, and a
capital loss will be recognized equal to the excess of the exercise price over the amount realized upon the disposition of the shares.

Restricted
Stock. A participant will not realize taxable income at the time of the grant of restricted stock, provided that the stock
subject to the award is not delivered at the time of grant, or if the stock is delivered, it is subject to restrictions that
constitute a “substantial risk of forfeiture” for federal income tax purposes. Upon the later of delivery or vesting of
shares subject to an award, the holder will recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the then fair market value of those
shares and Cincinnati Bancorp will be entitled to a corresponding deduction for tax purposes. Gains or losses realized by the
participant upon disposition of the shares will be treated as capital gains and losses, with the basis in the shares equal to the
fair market value of the shares at the time of delivery or vesting. Dividends paid to the holder during the restriction period, if
so provided, will also be compensation income to the participant, and Cincinnati Bancorp will be entitled to a corresponding
deduction for tax purposes. A participant who makes an election under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code will include the
full fair market value of the restricted stock award in taxable income in the year of grant at the grant date fair market value.

Restricted Stock Unit. A participant
who has been granted a restricted stock unit will not realize taxable income as long as the award remains in the form of a restricted
stock unit. When the restricted stock unit is extinguished and the award is settled, the tax consequences for restricted stock awards
(see paragraph above) will be recognized. A restricted stock unit does not have voting rights or dividend rights. However, the Compensation
Committee may grant dividend equivalent rights. Since no stock is transferred to the participant on the grant date of the restricted stock
unit, an election to have the restricted stock unit taxed at the grant date cannot be made since Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue
Code requires a transfer of stock.

Withholding of Taxes. Cincinnati
Bancorp may withhold amounts from participants to satisfy tax withholding requirements. Except as otherwise provided by the Compensation
Committee, participants may have shares withheld from awards to satisfy the tax withholding requirements, provided the withholding does
not trigger adverse accounting consequences.

Change in Control. Any acceleration
of the vesting or payment of awards under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan in the event of a change in control or termination of employment
or service following a change in control may cause part or all of the consideration involved to be treated as an “excess parachute
payment” under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, which may subject the participant to a 20% excise tax and preclude a deduction
by Cincinnati Bancorp with respect to the awards.

Deduction Limits. Section 162(m)
of the Internal Revenue Code generally limits our ability to deduct for tax purposes compensation in excess of $1.0 million per year for
each of our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and three additional highest compensated officers during any taxable
year of Cincinnati Bancorp after December 31, 2016. Compensation resulting from awards under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan will be counted
toward the $1.0 million limit.

Tax Advice. The preceding discussion
is based on federal tax laws and regulations currently in effect, which are subject to change, and the discussion does not purport to
be a complete description of the federal income tax aspects of the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan. A participant may also be subject to state
and local taxes in connection with the grant of awards under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan. Cincinnati Bancorp suggests participants
consult with their individual tax advisors to determine the applicability of the tax rules to the awards granted to them.

Accounting Treatment

Under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting
Standards Codification Topic 718, Cincinnati Bancorp is required to recognize compensation expense on its income statement over the requisite
service period or performance period based on the grant date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation (such as
restricted stock).

Awards to be Granted

The Board of Directors has adopted the 2021 Equity
Incentive Plan, contingent upon stockholder approval. If the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan is approved by stockholders, the Compensation
Committee may meet promptly after stockholder approval or at a later time to determine the specific terms of the awards, including the
allocation of awards to executive officers, employees, and non-employee directors. At the present time, except as described above and
set forth below, no specific determination has been made as to the grant or allocation of any awards.

Clawback Policy

The 2021 Equity Incentive Plan provides that if
Cincinnati Bancorp is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to its material noncompliance, as a result of misconduct, with
any financial reporting requirement under the federal securities laws, any participant who is subject to automatic forfeiture under Section
304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 or who, if applicable, is subject to clawback under Section 954 of the Dodd-Frank Act must reimburse
Cincinnati Bancorp with the required amount of any payment in settlement of an award earned or accrued during the 12-month period following
the first public issuance or filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (whichever first occurred) of the financial document embodying
such financial reporting requirement. In addition, awards granted under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan are subject to any clawback policy
adopted by the Board of Directors.

Initial Grants to Certain Non-Employee Directors

Non-employee directors who are in the service of
Cincinnati Bancorp on the date of the annual meeting will automatically be granted the following stock options and restricted stock awards,
as of the date of the annual meeting, provided that stockholders approve the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan:

Restricted Stock Awards
Name of Non-Employee Director	Dollar Value ($) (1)		Number of Awards
Harold L. Anness.	$	43,230		3,300
Stuart H. Anness, M.D.		43,230		3,300
Andrew J. Nurre, CPA		43,230		3,300
Charles G. Skidmore		43,230		3,300
Philip A. Wehrman, CPA		43,230		3,300
Non-Employee Directors as a Group (5 persons)	$	216,150		16,500

(1)

Amounts are based on the fair market value of Cincinnati Bancorp common stock on April 7, 2021 (the latest practicable date before
the printing of this proxy statement) of $13.10 per share. The actual value of the awards is not determinable since their value will depend
upon the fair market value of Cincinnati Bancorp common stock on the date of grant.

Stock Option Awards
Name of Non-Employee Director	Dollar Value ($) (1)		Number of Awards
Harold L. Anness		—		8,250
Stuart H. Anness, M.D.		—		8,250
Andrew J. Nurre, CPA		—		8,250
Charles G. Skidmore		—		8,250
Philip A. Wehrman, CPA		—		8,250
Non-Employee Directors as a Group (5 persons)		—		41,250

(1)

Amounts are not determinable because the actual value of the stock options realized will depend on the extent to which the fair market
value of Cincinnati Bancorp common stock exceeds the exercise price of the stock option on the date of exercise.

These grants will vest over a five-year period,
with 20% becoming vested after the completion of one year of service following the date of grant and then 20% percent becoming vested
each year of continued service thereafter for the next four years, subject to accelerated vesting upon death, disability, or an involuntary
termination of service at or following a change in control. The exercise price of the stock options will equal the fair market value of
Cincinnati Bancorp common stock on the date of grant.

The Compensation Committee believes the proposed
awards are reasonable and intended to continue to align the economic interest of the directors with other stockholders, consistent with
prevailing compensation practices in the competitive marketplace for similarly-situated financial institutions.

Any future grants to employees and directors under
the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan will be determined at the discretion of the Compensation Committee which may meet promptly after the approval
of the plan. As of this time, the Compensation Committee has made no determination with respect to future grants to directors of Cincinnati
Bancorp or to any named executive officer.

Required Vote and Recommendation of the Board of Directors

In order to approve the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan,
the proposal must receive the affirmative vote of the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the annual stockholder meeting.
The Board of Directors recommends a vote “FOR” the approval of the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan.

Item 3 — Ratification of Appointment
of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

BKD, LLP served as our independent registered public
accounting firm for the 2020 fiscal year. The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has appointed BKD, LLP to serve as the independent
registered public accounting firm for the 2021 fiscal year, subject to ratification by stockholders. A representative of BKD, LLP is expected
to be present at the annual meeting to respond to appropriate questions from stockholders and will have the opportunity to make a statement
should he desire to do so.

If the appointment of the independent registered
public accounting firm is not ratified by a majority of the votes cast by stockholders at the annual meeting, the Audit Committee of the
Board of Directors will consider other independent registered public accounting firms.

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends
that you vote “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of BKD, LLP to serve as the independent registered public accounting
firm.

Audit
Fees. The following table sets forth the fees that BKD, LLP billed to Cincinnati Bancorp for the fiscal years ended December
31, 2020 and 2019:

	2020		2019
Audit Fees (1)	$	97,750	$	95,500
Audit-Related Fees (2)		—		117,500
Tax Fees (3)		11,250		11,800
All Other Fees		—		—

(1)

Consists of fees for professional services rendered for the audit of the consolidated financial statements included in the Annual
Report on Form 10-K, for the review of financial statements included in the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and for services normally provided
by the independent auditor in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements.

(2)

Includes fees for services associated with SEC registration statements or other documents filed in connection with securities offerings,
including comfort letters, consents and assistance with review of documents filed with the SEC.

(3)

Consists of fees for compliance tax services, including tax planning and advice and preparation of tax returns.

Policy
on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Registered Public Accounting
Firm. The Audit Committee is responsible for appointing, setting compensation and overseeing the work of the
independent registered public accounting firm. In accordance with its charter, the Audit Committee approves, in advance, all audit
and permissible non-audit services to be performed by the independent registered public accounting firm. This approval process
ensures that the independent registered public accounting firm does not provide any non-audit service to us prohibited by law or
regulation.

Item 4 – Advisory (Non-Binding) Vote to Approve the Compensation
of the Named Executive Officers

The federal securities laws require Cincinnati
Bancorp to hold a stockholder advisory (non-binding) vote on the compensation of its named executive officers, as described in the tabular
disclosure regarding named executive officer compensation and the accompanying narrative disclosure in this proxy statement. This proposal,
commonly known as a “say-on-pay” proposal, gives Cincinnati Bancorp’s stockholders the opportunity to endorse or not
endorse Cincinnati Bancorp’s executive compensation program and policies through a vote on the following resolution:

“Resolved, that Cincinnati Bancorp’s stockholders approve,
on an advisory basis, the compensation of Cincinnati Bancorp’s named executive officers, as described in the tabular disclosure
regarding named executive officer compensation and the accompanying narrative disclosure in this proxy statement.”

Because the vote is advisory, it will not be binding
upon Cincinnati Bancorp or its Board of Directors. However, the Compensation Committee will take into account the outcome of the vote
when considering future executive compensation arrangements.

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends
a vote “FOR” approval of the compensation of Cincinnati Bancorp’s named executive officers.

Item 5 – Advisory (Non-Binding) Vote on Frequency of Stockholder
Advisory Vote on Compensation of Named Executive Officers

The federal securities laws also require Cincinnati
Bancorp to hold, at least once every six years, a stockholder advisory (non-binding) vote on the frequency of a stockholder advisory vote
on the compensation of Cincinnati Bancorp’s named executive officers. This proposal gives stockholders the opportunity to determine
whether the frequency of a stockholder advisory (non-binding) vote on the compensation of the named executive officers will be every one,
two or three years. Stockholders may also abstain from voting. Cincinnati Bancorp will hold the next frequency vote no later than at the
2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Because the vote is advisory, it will not be binding
on Cincinnati Bancorp or its Board of Directors. However, the Compensation Committee will take into account the outcome of the vote when
considering the frequency of a stockholder vote on executive compensation.

The Board of Directors has determined that having
a stockholder advisory (non-binding) vote on the compensation of the named executive officers every year is the best approach because
the Compensation Committee reviews and determines the primary elements of compensation, namely salary and cash bonus, each year.

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends
conducting a vote to approve the compensation of the named executive officers every one year. Note: Shareholders are
not voting to approve or disapprove of this recommendation.

Employment Agreement

Cincinnati Federal has entered into an employment
agreement with Gregory W. Meyers. The current term of the employment agreement expires on December 31, 2021. The employment agreement
sets forth the duties and responsibilities of Mr. Meyers and provides Mr. Meyers with a base salary and other employee benefits. The current
base salary of Mr. Meyers is $155,587.

We may terminate Mr. Meyers’ employment
at any time during the term of the employment agreement. Mr. Meyers is not entitled to receive any compensation or other benefits for
any period following his termination of employment for “Just Cause” (as defined in the agreement). If, in connection with
or within one year of a change in control of Cincinnati Federal, we terminate Mr. Meyers’ employment for any reason other than
Just Cause or if Mr. Meyers elects to terminate his employment, we will pay him an amount equal to three times his “average annual
compensation” (as that term is used for purposes of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended). Mr. Meyers
will also be eligible for continued coverage under our group health, hospitalization and disability plans at our expense until the earlier
of (i) the end of the term of the employment agreement or (ii) the date on which he becomes covered under another employer’s plan
providing comparable coverage. If we terminate Mr. Meyers employment during the term of the employment agreement for reasons other than
Just Cause and outside of a change in control of Cincinnati Federal, we will pay him his monthly base salary for the remaining term of
the agreement and continue to provide him with coverage under our group health, hospitalization and disability plans at our expense until
the earlier of (i) the first anniversary of his termination of employment or (ii) the date on which he becomes covered under another
employer’s plan providing comparable coverage. If Mr. Meyers dies during the term of the employment agreement, we will pay his
estate the compensation otherwise due him through the end of the calendar month in which his death occurs.

Change in Control Agreements

Cincinnati Federal has entered into change in control
agreements with Messrs. Bedinghaus, Bunke and Brinkman. The term of the agreement with Mr. Bedinghaus is three years and the term of the
agreements with Messrs. Bunke and Brinkman is two years. Each year, the board of directors of Cincinnati Federal may renew the agreements
for an additional year, so that the terms again become either three or two years, respectively. Under the agreements, if, during the term
of the agreement, the executive’s employment is involuntarily terminated, other than for “cause” (as defined in the
agreement), or if the executive voluntarily terminates employment for “good reason,” in either case following a change in
control, Cincinnati Federal, or its successor, will pay the executive severance equal to a multiple of the average taxable income reported
on the executive’s Form W-2 for the prior five year. The multiple is three years for Mr. Bedinghaus and two times for Messrs. Bunke
and Brinkman. In addition, Cincinnati Federal, or its successor, will pay the cost of the executive’s medical and dental coverage
for 18 months. For purposes of the agreements, the term “good reason” includes (i) the failure to re-elect or re-appoint the
executive to the position(s) he held immediately before the change in control, (ii) a material change in the executive’s position(s)
to be one of lesser responsibility, importance or scope, (iii) a liquidation or dissolution of Cincinnati Federal, (iv) a material reduction
in the executive’s base salary or benefits or (v) a relocation of the executive’s principal place of employment by more than
25 miles.

Other
Information Relating to Directors and Executive Officers

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, requires Cincinnati Bancorp’s executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of any registered
class of our equity securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities Exchange Commission. Executive
officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders are required by regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports
they file.

Based solely on our review of the copies of the
reports we have received and of written representations provided to us by the individuals required to file the reports, we believe that
each executive officer, director and greater than 10% beneficial owner has complied with applicable reporting requirements for transactions
in Cincinnati Bancorp common stock during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.

Transactions with Related Persons

Loans and Extensions of Credit. Federal
securities law generally prohibits publicly-traded companies from making loans to their executive officers and directors, but it contains
a specific exemption from this prohibition for loans made by federally-insured financial institutions, such as Cincinnati Federal, to
their executive officers and directors in compliance with federal banking regulations. Federal banking regulations permit executive officers
and directors to receive the same terms that are widely available to other employees so long as the director or executive officer is not
given preferential treatment compared to the other participating employees. Cincinnati Federal makes loans to its employees, other than
senior management and directors, through an employee loan program at a reduced interest rate 0.25% below the interest rate offered to
the public on fixed-rate loans. The margin on adjustable-rate loans is also reduced by 0.25%.

Cincinnati Federal does not generally make loans
to its executive officers and directors. A mortgage loan may be made to an insider provided it is collateralized using their primary residence
and the loan must be sold in the secondary mortgage market at prevailing terms and conditions. Cincinnati Federal complies with federal
regulations with respect to its loans and extensions of credit to executive officers and directors.

Submission

Appendix A

CINCINNATI BANCORP, INC.

2021 Equity Incentive Plan

ARTICLE 1 — GENERAL

Section 1.1. Purpose, Effective Date and Term. The purpose
of the Cincinnati Bancorp, Inc. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) is to promote the long-term financial success
of Cincinnati Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), and its Subsidiaries, including Cincinnati Federal (the “Bank”),
by providing a means to attract, retain and reward individuals who contribute to that success and to further align their interests with
those of the Company’s stockholders through the ownership of additional shares of common stock of the Company and/or through compensation
tied to the value of the Company’s common stock. The “Effective Date” of the Plan shall be the date on which
the Plan satisfies the applicable stockholder approval requirements. The Plan shall remain in effect as long as any Awards are outstanding;
provided, however, that no Awards may be granted under the Plan after the day immediately before the ten-year anniversary date
of the Effective Date.

Section 1.2. Administration. The Plan shall be administered
by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”) in accordance with Section 5.1.

Section 1.3. Participation. Each individual who is granted
and holds an Award in accordance with the terms of the Plan shall be a Participant in the Plan (a “Participant”). The
grant of Awards shall be limited to Employees, Directors and service providers of the Company or any Subsidiary.

Section 1.4. Definitions. Capitalized terms used in this
Plan are defined in Article 8 and elsewhere in this Plan.

ARTICLE 2 — AWARDS

Section 2.1. General. Any Award under the Plan may be
granted singularly or in combination with another Award or other Awards. Each Award under the Plan shall be subject to the terms and conditions
of the Plan and any additional terms, conditions, limitations and restrictions as the Committee shall provide with respect to the Award
and as evidenced in an Award Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the terms of an Award Agreement and the Plan, the terms of
the Plan will control. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.2(d), an Award may be granted as an alternative to or replacement of
an existing Award under the Plan or any other plan of the Company or any Subsidiary or as the form of payment for grants or rights earned
or due under any other compensation plan or arrangement of the Company or any Subsidiary, including without limitation the plan of any
entity acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary. The types of Awards that may be granted under the Plan include Stock Options, Restricted
Stock and Restricted Stock Units and any Award may be granted as a Performance Award.

Section 2.2. Stock Options. A Stock Option is a grant
that represents the right to purchase shares of Stock at an established Exercise Price.

(a) Grant
of Stock Options. Each Stock Option shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that specifies (i) the number of shares of
Stock covered by the Stock Option; (ii) the date of grant of the Stock Option and the Exercise Price; (iii) the vesting
period or conditions to vesting or exercisability (whether time- and/or performance-based); and (iv) any other terms and
conditions not inconsistent with the Plan, including the effect of termination of a Participant’s employment or Service, as
the Committee may, in its discretion, prescribe. Any Stock Option may be either an Incentive Stock Option that is intended to
satisfy the requirements applicable to an “Incentive Stock Option” described in Code Section 422(b), or a
Non-Qualified Option that is not intended to be an ISO; provided, however, that no ISOs may be granted: (i) after the day
immediately before the ten-year anniversary of the Effective Date or the date on which the Plan is approved by the Board of
Directors, whichever is earlier; or (ii) to a non-Employee. Unless otherwise specifically provided by its terms, any Stock
Option granted to an Employee under this Plan shall be an ISO to the maximum extent permitted. Any ISO granted under this Plan that
does not qualify as an ISO for any reason (whether at the time of grant or as the result of a subsequent event) shall be deemed to
be a Non-Qualified Option. In addition, any ISO granted under this Plan may be unilaterally modified by the Committee to disqualify
it from ISO treatment, so that it becomes a Non-Qualified Option; provided, however, that any such modification shall be ineffective
if it causes the Option to be subject to Code Section 409A (unless, as modified, the Option complies with Code
Section 409A).

(b) Other
Terms and Conditions. A Stock Option shall be exercisable in accordance with its terms and conditions and during the periods established
by the Committee. In no event, however, shall a Stock Option expire later than ten (10) years after the date of its grant (or five
(5) years with respect to ISOs granted to a 10% Stockholder). The Exercise Price of each Stock Option shall not be less than 100%
of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of grant (or, if greater, the par value of a share of Stock); provided, however,
that the Exercise Price of an ISO shall not be less than 110% of Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of grant if an ISO
is granted to a 10% Stockholder; provided further, that the Exercise Price may be higher or lower in the case of Stock Options
granted or exchanged in replacement of existing Awards held by an employee or director of an acquired entity. The payment of the Exercise
Price shall be by cash or, subject to limitations imposed by applicable law, by any other means as the Committee may from time to time
permit, including: (i) by tendering, either actually or constructively by attestation, shares of Stock valued at Fair Market Value
as of the day of exercise; (ii) by irrevocably authorizing a third party, acceptable to the Committee, to sell shares of Stock (or
a sufficient portion of the shares) acquired upon exercise of the Stock Option and to remit to the Company a sufficient portion of the
sale proceeds to pay the entire Exercise Price and any tax withholding resulting from the exercise; (iii) by a net settlement of
the Stock Option, using a portion of the shares of Stock obtained on exercise in payment of the Exercise Price (and if applicable, any
tax withholding); (iv) by personal, certified or cashier’s check; (v) by other property deemed acceptable by the Committee;
or (vi) by any combination thereof. The total number of shares of Stock that may be acquired upon the exercise of a Stock Option
shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share, with cash-in-lieu paid by the Company, at its discretion, for the value of any fractional
share.

(c) Prohibition
of Cash Buy-Outs of Underwater Stock Options. Under no circumstances will any underwater Stock Option (i.e., a Stock Option with
an Exercise Price as of an applicable date that is greater than the Fair Market Value of Stock as of the same date) that was granted under
the Plan be bought back by the Company without stockholder approval.

(d) Prohibition
Against Repricing. Except for adjustments pursuant to Section 3.4, and reductions of the Exercise Price approved by the Company’s
stockholders, neither the Committee nor the Board of Directors shall have the right or authority to make any adjustment or amendment that
reduces or would have the effect of reducing the Exercise Price of a Stock Option previously granted under the Plan, whether through amendment,
cancellation (including cancellation in exchange for a cash payment in excess of the Award’s in-the-money value or in exchange for
Options or other Awards) or replacement grants, or other means.

Section 2.3. Restricted Stock.

(a) Grant
of Restricted Stock. A Restricted Stock Award is a grant of a share of Stock for no consideration or such minimum consideration as
may be required by applicable law, subject to a vesting schedule or the satisfaction of market conditions or performance conditions. Each
Restricted Stock Award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that specifies (i) the number of shares of Stock covered by the Restricted
Stock Award; (ii) the date of grant of the Restricted Stock Award; (iii) the vesting period (whether time- and/or performance-based);
and (iv) any other terms and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan, including the effect of termination of a Participant’s
employment or Service. All Restricted Stock Awards shall be in the form of issued and outstanding shares of Stock that, at the discretion
of the Committee, shall either be (x) registered in the name of the Participant and held by or on behalf of the Company, together
with a stock power executed by the Participant in favor of the Company, pending the vesting or forfeiture of the Restricted Stock; or
(y) registered in the name of, and delivered to, the Participant. In any event, the certificates evidencing the Restricted Stock
Award shall at all times before the applicable vesting date bear the following legend:

The Stock evidenced hereby is subject to the terms of an Award
Agreement with Cincinnati Bancorp, Inc., dated [date], made pursuant to the terms of the Cincinnati Bancorp, Inc. 2021 Equity Incentive
Plan, copies of which are on file at the executive offices of Cincinnati Bancorp, Inc., and may not be sold, encumbered, hypothecated
or otherwise transferred except in accordance with the terms of the Plan and Award Agreement,

or other restrictive legend as the Committee, in its discretion, may
specify. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may in its sole discretion issue Restricted Stock in any other approved format (e.g.,
electronically) in order to facilitate the paperless transfer of the Award. If Restricted Stock is not issued in certificate form,
the Company and its transfer agent shall maintain appropriate bookkeeping entries that evidence Participants’ ownership of the Awards.
Restricted Stock that is not issued in certificate form shall be subject to the same terms and conditions of the Plan as certificated
shares, including the restrictions on transferability and the provision of a stock power executed by the Participant in favor of the Company,
until the satisfaction of the conditions to which the Restricted Stock Award is subject.

(b) Terms
and Conditions. Each Restricted Stock Award shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(i) Dividends.
Unless the Committee determines otherwise, cash dividends or distributions, if any, declared and paid with respect to shares of Stock
subject to a Restricted Stock Award shall be immediately distributed to the Participant No cash dividends shall be paid with respect to
a Restricted Stock Awards subject to performance-based vesting conditions unless and until the Participant vests in the Restricted Stock
Award. Upon the vesting of Restricted Stock granted as a Performance Award, any cash dividends declared but not paid to the Participant
during the vesting period shall be paid, without interest, within thirty (30) days following the vesting date. Any stock dividends
declared on shares of Stock subject to a Restricted Stock Award, whether or not performance-based, shall be subject to the same restrictions
and shall vest at the same time as the shares of Restricted Stock from which the dividends were derived. If the distribution of dividends
are delayed, the Committee shall cause the dividend (and any earnings thereon) to be distributed to the Participant no later than two
and one-half months following the date on which the Restricted Stock vests.

(ii) Voting
Rights. Unless the Committee determines otherwise, a Participant shall have voting rights related to unvested, non-forfeited Restricted
Stock and the voting rights may be exercised by the Participant.

(iii) Tender
Offers and Merger Elections. Each Participant to whom a Restricted Stock Award is granted shall have the right to respond, or to direct
the response, with respect to the related shares of Restricted Stock, to any tender offer, exchange offer, cash/stock merger consideration
election or other offer made to, or elections made by, the holders of shares of Stock. The direction for any the shares of Restricted
Stock shall be given by proxy or ballot (if the Participant is the beneficial owner of the shares of Restricted Stock for voting purposes)
or by completing and filing, with the inspector of elections, the trustee or the other person who shall be independent of the Company,
as the Committee shall designate in the direction (if the Participant is not the beneficial owner), a written direction in the form and
manner prescribed by the Committee. If no direction is given, then the shares of Restricted Stock shall not be tendered.

Section 2.4. Restricted Stock Units.

(a) Grant
of Restricted Stock Unit Awards. A Restricted Stock Unit is an Award denominated in shares of Stock that is similar to a Restricted
Stock Award except no shares of Stock are actually awarded on the date of grant. A Restricted Stock Unit is subject to a vesting schedule
or the satisfaction of market conditions or performance conditions and shall be settled in shares of Stock, provided, however,
that in the sole discretion of the Committee, determined at the time of settlement, a Restricted Stock Unit may be settled in cash based
on the Fair Market Value of a share of the Stock multiplied by the number of Restricted Stock Units being settled, or a combination of
shares of Stock and cash. Each Restricted Stock Unit shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that specifies (i) the number of Restricted
Stock Units covered by the Award; (ii) the date of grant of the Restricted Stock Units; (iii) the Restriction Period and the
vesting period (whether time- and/or performance-based); and (iv) any other terms and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan,
including the effect of termination of a Participant’s employment or Service.

(b) Other
Terms and Conditions. Each Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(i) The
Committee shall impose any other conditions and/or restrictions on any Restricted Stock Unit Award as it may deem advisable, including,
without limitation, a requirement that Participants pay a stipulated purchase price for each Restricted Stock Unit, time-based restrictions
and vesting following the attainment of performance measures, restrictions under applicable laws or under the requirements of any Exchange
or market upon which shares of Stock may be listed, or holding requirements or sale restrictions placed by the Company upon vesting of
Restricted Stock Units.

(ii) The
conditions for grant or vesting and the other provisions of Restricted Stock Units (including without limitation any applicable performance
measures) need not be the same with respect to each recipient. An Award of Restricted Stock Units shall be settled as and when the Restricted
Stock Units vest or, in the case of Restricted Stock Units subject to performance measures, after the Committee has determined that the
performance goals have been satisfied.

(iii) Subject
to the provisions of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement, during the period, if any, set by the Committee, commencing with
the date of grant of the Restricted Stock Unit for which the Participant’s continued Service is required (the
“Restriction Period”), and until the later of (A) the expiration of the Restriction Period and (B) the
date the applicable performance measures (if any) are satisfied, the Participant shall not be permitted to sell, assign, transfer,
pledge or otherwise encumber Restricted Stock Units.

(iv) A
Participant shall have no voting rights with respect to any Restricted Stock Units. No dividends shall be paid on Restricted Stock Units.
In the sole discretion of the Committee, exercised at the time of grant, Dividend Equivalent Rights may be assigned to Restricted Stock
Units. A Dividend Equivalent Right, if any, shall be paid at the same time as the shares of Stock or cash subject to the Restricted Stock
Unit are distributed to the Participant and is otherwise subject to the same rights and restrictions as the underlying Restricted Stock
Unit.

Section 2.5. Vesting of Awards. Unless the Committee
specifies a different vesting schedule at the time of grant, Awards under the Plan (other than Performance Awards) shall be granted with
a vesting rate of twenty percent (20%) per year, with the initial installment vesting no earlier than the one-year anniversary of the
date of grant, unless accelerated due to death, Disability, or an Involuntary Termination at or following a Change in Control. Notwithstanding
the foregoing sentence, at least ninety-five percent (95%) of the Awards under the Plan shall vest no earlier than one (1) year after
the date of grant, unless accelerated due to death, Disability, or an Involuntary Termination at or following a Change in Control. If
the right to become vested in an Award (including the right to exercise a Stock Option) is conditioned on the completion of a specified
period of Service, without achievement of performance measures or other performance objectives being required as a condition of vesting,
and without it being granted in lieu of, or in exchange for, other compensation, then the required period of Service for full vesting
shall be evidenced in an Award Agreement (subject to acceleration of vesting, to the extent permitted by the Plan, by the Committee (subject
to the limitations set forth in this Section 2.5) or as set forth in the Award Agreement, in the event of the Participant’s death,
Disability or an Involuntary Termination at or following a Change in Control).

Section 2.6. Deferred Compensation. If any Award would
be considered “deferred compensation” as defined under Code Section 409A (“Deferred Compensation”),
the Committee reserves the absolute right (including the right to delegate such right) to unilaterally amend the Plan or the Award Agreement,
without the consent of the Participant, to maintain exemption from, or to comply with, Code Section 409A. Any amendment by the Committee
to the Plan or an Award Agreement pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall maintain, to the extent practicable, the original intent of the applicable
provision without violating Code Section 409A. A Participant’s acceptance of any Award under the Plan constitutes acknowledgement
and consent to the rights of the Committee, without further consideration or action. Any discretionary authority retained by the Committee
pursuant to the terms of this Plan or pursuant to an Award Agreement shall not apply to an Award that is determined to constitute Deferred
Compensation, if the discretionary authority would contravene Code Section 409A.

Section 2.7. Effect of Termination of Service on Awards.
The Committee shall establish the effect of a Termination of Service on the continuation of rights and benefits available under an Award
and, in so doing, may make distinctions based upon, among other things, the reason(s) for the Termination of Service and type of Award.
Unless otherwise specified by the Committee and set forth in an Award Agreement between the Company and/or a Subsidiary and the Participant
or as set forth in an employment or severance agreement entered into by and between the Company and/or a Subsidiary and the Participant,
the following provisions shall apply to each Award granted under this Plan:

(a) Upon
a Participant’s Termination of Service for any reason other than due to Disability, death, Retirement or for Cause, Stock
Options shall be exercisable only as to those shares of Stock that were immediately exercisable by the Participant at the date of
termination, and the Stock Options may be exercised only for a period of three (3) months following termination and any
Restricted Stock Award or Restricted Stock Unit that has not vested as of the date of Termination of Service shall expire and be
forfeited.

(b) In
the event of a Termination of Service for Cause, all Stock Options granted to a Participant that have not been exercised (whether or not
vested) and all Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Units granted to a Participant that have not vested shall expire and be forfeited.

(c) Upon
Termination of Service for reason of Disability or death, any Service-based Stock Options shall be exercisable as to all shares of Stock
subject to an outstanding Award, whether or not then exercisable, and all Service-based Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Units
shall vest as to all shares subject to an outstanding Award, whether or not otherwise immediately vested, at the date of Termination of
Service. Upon Termination of Service for reason of Disability or death, any Awards that vest based on the achievement of performance targets
shall vest, pro-rata, by multiplying (i) the number of Awards that would be obtained based on achievement at target (or if actual
achievement of the performance measures is greater than the target level, at the actual achievement level) as of the date of Disability
or death, by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of whole months the Participant was in Service during the performance
period and the denominator of which is the number of months in the performance period. Stock Options may be exercised for a period of
one (1) year following a Termination of Service due to death or Disability; provided, however, that no Stock Option shall be eligible
for treatment as an ISO if the Stock Option is exercised more than one year following Termination of Service due to Disability and provided,
further, in order to obtain ISO treatment for Stock Options exercised by heirs or devisees of an optionee, the optionee’s death
must have occurred while employed or within three (3) months of Termination of Service. In the event of Termination of Service due to
Retirement, a Participant’s vested Stock Options shall be exercisable for one (1) year following Termination of Service. No Stock
Option shall be eligible for treatment as an ISO if the Stock Option is exercised more than three (3) months following Termination of
Service due to Retirement and any Stock Option, Restricted Stock Award or Restricted Stock Unit that has not vested as of the date of
Termination of Service shall expire and be forfeited.

(d) Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, no Stock Option shall be exercisable beyond the last day of the original term of the Stock Option.

(e) Notwithstanding
the provisions of this Section 2.7, the effect of a Change in Control on the vesting/exercisability of Stock Options, Restricted
Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Units is as set forth in Article 4.

(f) For
purposes of the Plan, the term “Retirement” means, unless otherwise specified in an Award Agreement, retirement from
employment or service on or after the attainment of age 65. An Employee who also serves as a Director shall not be deemed to have terminated
due to Retirement for purposes of vesting of Awards and exercise of Stock Options until both Service as an Employee and Service as a Director
has ceased. A non-employee Director will be deemed to have terminated due to Retirement under the provisions of this Plan only if the
non-employee Director has terminated Service on the board(s) of directors of the Company and any Subsidiary or affiliate in accordance
with applicable Company policy, following the provision of written notice to the board(s) of directors of the non-employee Director’s
intention to retire. A non-employee Director who continues in Service as a director emeritus or advisory director shall be deemed to be
in Service of the Company or a Subsidiary for purposes of vesting of Awards and exercise of Stock Options.

Section 2.8. Holding Period for Vested Awards. As a condition
of receipt of an Award, the Award Agreement may require a Participant to agree to hold a vested Award or shares of Stock received upon
exercise of a Stock Option for a period of time specified in the Award Agreement. The foregoing limitation shall not apply to the extent
that an Award vests due to death, Disability or an Involuntary Termination at or following a Change in Control, or to the extent that
(i) a Participant directs the Company to withhold or the Company elects to withhold shares of Stock with respect to the vesting or
exercise, or, in lieu thereof, to retain, or to sell without notice, a sufficient number of shares of Stock to cover the amount required
to be withheld or (ii) a Participant exercises a Stock Option by a net settlement, and in the case of (i) and (ii) herein,
only to the extent of the shares are withheld for tax purposes or for purposes of the net settlement.

ARTICLE 3 — SHARES SUBJECT TO
PLAN

Section 3.1. Available Shares. The shares of Stock with
respect to which Awards may be made under the Plan shall be shares currently authorized but unissued, currently held or, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, subsequently acquired by the Company, including shares purchased in the open market or in private transactions.

Section 3.2. Share Limitations.

(a) Share
Reserve. Subject to the following provisions of this Section 3.2, the maximum number of shares of Stock that may be delivered to Participants
and their beneficiaries under the Plan shall be equal to 231,414 shares of Stock. The maximum number of shares of Stock that may be delivered
pursuant to the exercise of Stock Options (all of which may be granted as ISOs) is 165,296 shares of Stock, which represents 10% of the
number of shares sold in connection with the second-step conversion of CF Mutual Holding Company and the related stock issuance of the
Company (the “Conversion”). The maximum number of shares of Stock that may be issued as Restricted Stock Awards and
Restricted Stock Units is 66,118 shares of Stock, which represents 4.0% of the number of shares sold in the Conversion. The aggregate
number of shares available for grant under this Plan and the number of shares of Stock subject to outstanding awards shall be subject
to adjustment as provided in Section 3.4.

(b) Computation
of Shares Available. For purposes of this Section 3.2 and in connection with the granting of a Stock Option, Restricted Stock
or Restricted Stock Unit, the number of shares of Stock available for the grant of additional Stock Options, Restricted Stock Awards or
Restricted Stock Units shall be reduced by the number of shares of Stock previously granted, subject to the following. To the extent any
shares of Stock covered by an Award (including Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Units) under the Plan are not delivered to
a Participant or beneficiary for any reason, including because the Award is forfeited or canceled or because a Stock Option is not exercised,
then the shares shall not be deemed to have been delivered for purposes of determining the maximum number of shares of Stock available
for delivery under the Plan. To the extent: (i) a Stock Option is exercised by using an actual or constructive exchange of shares
of Stock to pay the Exercise Price; (ii) shares of Stock are withheld to satisfy withholding taxes upon exercise or vesting of an
Award granted hereunder; or (iii) shares are withheld to satisfy the Exercise Price of Stock Options in a net settlement of Stock
Options, then the number of shares of Stock available shall be reduced by the gross number of Stock Options exercised rather than by the
net number of shares of Stock issued.

Section 3.3. Limitations on Grants to Employees and Directors.

(i) Stock Options – Employees.
The maximum number of shares of Stock, in the aggregate, that may be covered by a Stock Option granted to any one Employee under the
Plan shall be 41,324 shares, all of which may be granted during any calendar year. This maximum amount represents approximately twenty-five
percent (25%) of the maximum number of shares of Stock that may be delivered pursuant to Stock Options under Section 3.2.

(ii) Restricted Stock Awards/Restricted
Stock Units – Employees. The maximum number of shares of Stock, in the aggregate, that may be subject to Restricted Stock Awards or
Restricted Stock Units granted to any one Employee under the Plan shall be 16,529 shares, all of which may be granted during any calendar
year. This maximum amount represents approximately twenty-five percent (25%) of the maximum number of shares of Stock that may be issued
as Restricted Stock Awards or Restricted Stock Units.

(i) Stock
Options – Individual and Aggregate Limits. Individual non-employee Directors may be granted Stock Options of up to 8,264 shares,
all of which may be granted during any calendar year and, in addition, all non-employee Directors, in the aggregate, may be granted up
to 49,588 shares all of which may be granted during any calendar year. These maximum amounts represent approximately five percent (5%)
and thirty percent (30%), respectively, of the maximum number of shares of Stock that may be delivered pursuant to Stock Options under
Section 3.2.

(ii) Restricted
Stock Awards/Restricted Stock Units – Individual and Aggregate Limits. Individual non-employee Directors may be granted Restricted
Stock Awards or Restricted Stock Units of up to 3,305 shares, all of which may be granted during any calendar year and, in addition, all
non-employee Directors, in the aggregate, may be granted up to 19,835 shares all of which may be granted during any calendar year. These
maximum amounts represent approximately five percent (5%) and thirty percent (30%), respectively, of the maximum number of shares of Stock
that may be delivered pursuant to Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Units under Section 3.2.

(c) Initial
Grants to Non-Employee Directors. Each non-Employee Director of the Board of Directors of the Company who is in the Service of the
Company on the Effective Date (the date of the 2021 Company annual stockholder meeting at which stockholders vote to approve the Plan
(“2021 Annual Meeting”)) shall automatically be granted an Award of Stock Options and Restricted Stock as follows:

(i) Stock
Options – Non-Employee Directors. Each non-Employee Director of the Board of Directors of the Company who is in the Service
of the Company immediately following the 2021 Annual Meeting shall receive, on the Effective Date, a grant of 8,250 Stock Options, which
represents approximately 5% of the maximum number of shares of Stock that may be delivered pursuant to Stock Options under Section 3.2.
These grants will vest at the rate of 20% per year, subject to acceleration in the event of death, Disability or an Involuntary Termination
at or following a Change in Control.

(ii) Restricted
Stock Awards – Non-Employee Directors. Each non-Employee Director of the Board of Directors of the Company who is in the Service
of the Company immediately following the 2021 Annual Meeting shall receive, on the Effective Date, a grant of 3,300 shares of Restricted
Stock, which represents approximately5% of the maximum number of shares of Stock that may be delivered pursuant to Restricted Stock Awards
under Section 3.2. These grants will vest at the rate of 20% per year, subject to acceleration in the event of death, Disability or an
Involuntary Termination at or following a Change in Control.

(d) The
aggregate number of shares available for grant under this Plan and the number of shares subject to outstanding Awards, including the limit
on the number of Awards available for grant under this Plan described in this Section 3.3, shall be subject to adjustment as provided
in Section 3.4.

Section 3.4. Corporate Transactions.

(a) General.
In the event any recapitalization, reclassification, forward or reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, spin-off,
combination, or exchange of shares of Stock or other securities, stock dividend or other special and nonrecurring dividend or distribution
(whether in the form of cash, securities or other property), liquidation, dissolution, or increase or decrease in the number of shares
of Stock without consideration, or similar corporate transaction or event, affects the shares of Stock such that an adjustment is appropriate
in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights of Participants under the Plan and/or under any Award granted under the Plan,
then the Committee shall, in an equitable manner, adjust any or all of: (i) the number and kind of securities deemed to be available
thereafter for grants of Stock Options, Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Units in the aggregate to all Participants and individually
to any one Participant; (ii) the number and kind of securities that may be delivered or deliverable in respect of outstanding Stock
Options, Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Units; and (iii) the Exercise Price. In addition, the Committee is authorized
to adjust the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, Stock Options, Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Units
(including, without limitation, cancellation of Stock Options, Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Units in exchange for the
in-the-money value, if any, of the vested portion thereof, or substitution or exchange of Stock Options, Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted
Stock Units using stock of a successor or other entity) in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events (including, without limitation,
events described in the preceding sentence) affecting the Company or any parent or Subsidiary or the financial statements of the Company
or any parent or Subsidiary, or in response to changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting principles.

(b) Merger
in Which Company is Not Surviving Entity. In the event of any merger, consolidation, or other business reorganization
(including, but not limited to, a Change in Control) in which the Company is not the surviving entity, any Stock Options granted
under the Plan which remain outstanding shall be converted into Stock Options to purchase voting common equity securities of the
business entity which survives the merger, consolidation or other business reorganization having substantially the same terms and
conditions as the outstanding Stock Options under this Plan and reflecting the same economic benefit (as measured by the difference
between the aggregate Exercise Price and the value exchanged for outstanding shares of Stock in the merger, consolidation or other
business reorganization), all as determined by the Committee before the consummation of the merger, consolidation or other business
reorganization. Similarly, any Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units which remain outstanding shall be assumed by and become
Restricted Stock and/or Restricted Stock Units of the business entity which survives the merger, consolidation or other business
reorganization. If the acquiring entity fails or refuses to assume the Company’s outstanding Awards, any Service-based Awards
shall vest immediately at or immediately before the effective time of the merger, consolidation or other business reorganization.
Any Awards subject to performance-based vesting conditions shall vest in the same manner as required under Section 4.1(c)
hereof at the time of the merger, consolidation or other business reorganization, as if the holder thereof incurred an Involuntary
Termination of Service on that date. Unless another treatment is specified in the documents governing the merger, consolidation or
other business organization, in the case of vested Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units, holders thereof shall receive on the
effective date of the transaction, the same value as received by a holder of a share of Stock, multiplied by the number of
Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units held, and in the case of a holder of Stock Options, the holder shall receive the
difference, in cash, between the aggregate Exercise Price of the holder’s outstanding Stock Options and the value exchanged
for outstanding shares of Stock in the merger, consolidation or other business reorganization.

Section 3.5. Delivery of Shares. Delivery of shares of
Stock or other amounts under the Plan shall be subject to the following:

(a) Compliance
with Applicable Laws. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Company shall have no obligation to deliver any shares
of Stock or make any other distribution of benefits under the Plan unless the delivery or distribution complies with all applicable laws
(including, the requirements of the Securities Act), and the applicable requirements of any Exchange or similar entity.

(b) Certificates.
To the extent that the Plan provides for the issuance of shares of Stock, the issuance may be effected on a non-certificated basis,
to the extent not prohibited by applicable law or the applicable rules of any Exchange.

ARTICLE 4 — CHANGE IN CONTROL

Section 4.1. Consequence of a Change in Control. Subject
to the provisions of Section 2.5 (relating to vesting and acceleration) and Section 3.4 (relating to the adjustment of shares),
and except as otherwise provided in the Plan:

(a) At
the time of an Involuntary Termination at or following a Change in Control, all service-based Stock Options then held by the Participant
shall become fully earned and exercisable (subject to the expiration provisions otherwise applicable to the Stock Option). All Stock Options
may be exercised for a period of one (1) year following the Participant’s Involuntary Termination, provided, however, that no Stock
Option shall be eligible for treatment as an ISO if the Stock Option is exercised more than three (3) months following a termination of
employment.

(b) At
the time of an Involuntary Termination at or following a Change in Control, all Service-based Awards of Restricted Stock and Restricted
Stock Units shall become fully earned and vested immediately.

(c) In
the event of an Involuntary Termination at or following a Change in Control, a prorated portion of any Performance Awards will vest based
on actual performance measured as of the most recent completed fiscal quarter. If actual performance cannot be determined, a prorated
portion of the Performance Awards will vest at the target performance level. The pro-rata portion will be calculated based on a number
of months worked during the performance period as a percentage of the total performance period.

Section 4.2. Definition of Change in Control. For purposes
of this Plan, the term “Change in Control” shall mean the consummation by the Company or the Bank, in a single transaction
or series of related transactions, of any of the following:

(a) Merger.
The Company or the Bank merges into or consolidates with another entity, or merges another bank or corporation into the Company or
the Bank, and, as a result, less than a majority of the combined voting power of the resulting corporation immediately after the merger
or consolidation is held by persons who were stockholders of the Company or the Bank immediately before the merger or consolidation;

(b) Acquisition
of Significant Share Ownership. There is filed, or is required to be filed, a report on Schedule 13D or another form or schedule
(other than a Schedule 13G) required under Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Exchange Act, if the schedule discloses that the filing
person has or persons acting in concert have become the beneficial owner of 25% or more of a class of the Company’s or Bank’s
voting securities; provided, however, this sub-section (b) shall not apply to beneficial ownership of the Company’s
or the Bank’s voting shares held in a fiduciary capacity by an entity in which the Company directly or indirectly beneficially owns
50% or more of its outstanding Voting Securities;

(c) Change
in Board Composition. During any period of two consecutive years, individuals who constitute the Company’s or the Bank’s
board of directors at the beginning of the two-year period cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Company’s
or the Bank’s board of directors; provided, however, that for purposes of this sub-section (c), each director who is
first elected by the board of directors (or first nominated by the board of directors for election by the stockholders) by a vote of at
least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors who were directors at the beginning of the two-year period shall be deemed to have also been
a director at the beginning of the period or who is appointed as a director as a result of a directive, supervisory agreement or order
issued by the primary regulator of the Company or the Bank or by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation shall be deemed to have also
been a director at the beginning of the period; or

(d) Sale
of Assets. The Company or the Bank sells to a third party all or substantially all of its assets.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control
shall not be deemed to occur solely because any Person (the “Subject Person”) acquired beneficial ownership of more
than the permitted amount of the then outstanding Stock or Voting Securities as a result of a change in the number of shares of Stock
or Voting Securities then outstanding, which thereby increases the proportional number of shares beneficially owned by the Subject Person;
provided, however, that if a Change in Control would occur (but for the operation of this sentence) as a result of the acquisition
of Stock or Voting Securities by the Company, and after such share acquisition by the Company, the Subject Person becomes the beneficial
owner of any additional Stock or Voting Securities which increases the percentage of the then outstanding Stock or Voting Securities beneficially
owned by the Subject Person, then a Change in Control shall occur.

In addition, if an Award constitutes Deferred Compensation,
and the settlement of, or distribution of benefits under, the Award is to be triggered solely by a Change in Control, then with respect
to the Award, a Change in Control shall be defined as required under Code Section 409A, as in effect at the time of the transaction.

ARTICLE 5 — COMMITTEE

Section 5.1. Administration. The Plan shall be administered
by the Committee. If the Committee consists of fewer than three (3) Disinterested Board Members, then the Board of Directors shall appoint
to the Committee additional Disinterested Board Members as shall be necessary to provide for a Committee consisting of at least three
(3) Disinterested Board Members. Any members of the Committee who do not qualify as Disinterested Board Members shall abstain from participating
in any discussion or decision to make or administer Awards that are made to Participants who at the time of consideration for such Award
are persons subject to the short-swing profit rules of Section 16 of the Exchange Act. The Board of Directors (or if necessary to maintain
compliance with the applicable listing standards, those members of the Board of Directors who are “independent directors”
under the corporate governance statutes or rules of any national Exchange on which the Company lists, has listed or seeks to list its
securities) may, in their discretion, take any action and exercise any power, privilege or discretion conferred on the Committee under
the Plan with the same force and effect under the Plan as if done or exercised by the Committee.

Section 5.2. Powers of Committee. The administration
of the Plan by the Committee shall be subject to the following:

(a) The
Committee shall have the authority and discretion to select those persons who shall receive Awards, to determine the time or times of
receipt, to determine the types of Awards and the number of shares of Stock covered by the Awards, to establish the terms, conditions,
features (including automatic exercise in accordance with Section 7.18), performance criteria, restrictions (including without limitation,
provisions relating to non-competition, non-solicitation and confidentiality), and other provisions of such Awards (subject to the restrictions
imposed by Article 6), to cancel or suspend Awards and to reduce, eliminate or accelerate any restrictions or vesting requirements
applicable to an Award at any time after the grant of the Award; provided, however, that the Committee shall not exercise its discretion
to accelerate an Award within the first year following the date of grant, or to extend the time period to exercise a Stock Option, provided
that the extension is consistent with Code Section 409A.

(b) The
Committee shall have the authority and discretion to interpret the Plan, to establish, amend and rescind any rules and regulations relating
to the Plan, and to make all other determinations that may be necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan.

(d) In
controlling and managing the operation and administration of the Plan, the Committee shall take action in a manner that conforms to the
charter and bylaws of the Company and applicable corporate law.

(e) The
Committee shall have the authority to: (i) suspend a Participant’s right to exercise a Stock Option during a blackout period
(or similar restricted period) or to exercise in a particular manner (i.e., such as a “cashless exercise” or “broker-assisted
exercise”) to the extent that the Committee deems it necessary or in the best interests of the Company in order to comply with the
securities laws and regulations issued by the SEC (the “Blackout Period”); and (ii) to extend the period to exercise
a Stock Option by a period of time equal to the Blackout Period, provided that the extension does not violate Section 409A of the
Code, the Incentive Stock Option requirements or applicable laws and regulations.

Section 5.3. Delegation by Committee. Except to the
extent prohibited by applicable law, the applicable rules of an Exchange upon which the Company lists its shares or the Plan, or as
necessary to comply with the exemptive provisions of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, the Committee may allocate
all or any portion of its responsibilities and powers to any one or more of its members and may delegate all or any part of its
responsibilities and powers to any person or persons selected by it, including: (a) delegating to a committee of one or more
members of the Board of Directors who are not “non-employee directors,” within the meaning of Rule 16b-3, the
authority to grant Awards under the Plan to eligible persons who are not then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act; or
(b) delegating to a committee of one or more members of the Board of Directors who would be eligible to serve on the
Compensation Committee of the Company pursuant to the listing requirements imposed by any national securities exchange on which the
Company lists, has listed or seeks to list its securities, the authority to grant awards under the Plan. The acts of the delegates
shall be treated hereunder as acts of the Committee and the delegates shall report regularly to the Committee regarding the exercise
of delegated duties and responsibilities and any Awards so granted. Any such allocation or delegation may be revoked by the
Committee at any time.

Section 5.4. Information to be Furnished to Committee.
As may be permitted by applicable law, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall furnish the Committee with data and information it determines
may be required for it to discharge its duties. The records of the Company and its Subsidiaries as to a Participant’s employment,
termination of employment, leave of absence, reemployment and compensation shall be conclusive on all persons unless determined by the
Committee to be manifestly incorrect. Subject to applicable law, Participants and other persons entitled to benefits under the Plan must
furnish the Committee any evidence, data or information as the Committee considers desirable to carry out the terms of the Plan.

Section 5.5. Committee Action. The Committee shall hold
meetings, and may make administrative rules and regulations, as it may deem proper. A majority of the members of the Committee shall constitute
a quorum, and the action of a majority of the members of the Committee present at a meeting at which a quorum is present, as well as actions
taken pursuant to the unanimous written consent of all of the members of the Committee without holding a meeting, shall be deemed to be
actions of the Committee. Subject to Section 5.1, all actions of the Committee, including interpretations of provisions of the Plan, shall
be final and conclusive and shall be binding upon the Company, Participants and all other interested parties. Any person dealing with
the Committee shall be fully protected in relying upon any written notice, instruction, direction or other communication signed by a member
of the Committee or by a representative of the Committee authorized to sign the same in its behalf.

ARTICLE 6 — AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

Section 6.1. General. The Board of Directors may, as
permitted by law, at any time, amend or terminate the Plan, and may amend any Award Agreement, provided that no amendment or termination
(except as provided in Sections 2.6, 3.4 and 6.2) may cause the Award to violate Code Section 409A, may cause the repricing of a
Stock Option, or, in the absence of written consent to the change by the affected Participant (or, if the Participant is not then living,
the affected beneficiary), adversely impair the rights of any Participant or beneficiary under any Award before the date the amendment
is adopted by the Board of Directors; provided, however, that, no amendment may (a) materially increase the benefits accruing
to Participants under the Plan, (b) materially increase the aggregate number of securities which may be issued under the Plan, other
than pursuant to Section 3.4, or (c) materially modify the requirements for participation in the Plan, unless the amendment is approved
by the Company’s stockholders.

Section 6.2. Amendment to Conform to Law and Accounting
Changes. Notwithstanding any provision in this Plan or any Award Agreement to the contrary, the Committee may amend the Plan
or any Award Agreement, to take effect retroactively or otherwise, as deemed necessary or advisable for the purpose of:
(i) conforming the Plan or the Award Agreement to any present or future law relating to plans of this or similar nature
(including, but not limited to, Code Section 409A); or (ii) avoiding an accounting treatment resulting from an accounting
pronouncement or interpretation thereof issued by the SEC or by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the
“FASB”) after the adoption of the Plan or the making of the Award affected thereby, which, in the sole discretion
of the Committee, may materially and adversely affect the financial condition or results of operations of the Company. By accepting
an Award under this Plan, each Participant agrees and consents to any amendment made pursuant to this Section 6.2 to any Award
granted under the Plan without further consideration or action.

ARTICLE 7 — GENERAL TERMS

Section 7.1. No Implied Rights.

(a) No
Rights to Specific Assets. Neither a Participant nor any other person shall by reason of participation in the Plan acquire any right
in or title to any assets, funds or property of the Company or any Subsidiary whatsoever, including any specific funds, assets, or other
property which the Company or any Subsidiary, in its sole discretion, may set aside in anticipation of a liability under the Plan. A Participant
shall have only a contractual right, evidenced by an Award Agreement, to the shares of Stock or amounts, if any, payable or distributable
under the Plan, unsecured by any assets of the Company or any Subsidiary, and nothing contained in the Plan shall constitute a guarantee
that the assets of the Company or any Subsidiary shall be sufficient to pay any benefits to any person.

(b) No
Contractual Right to Employment or Future Awards. The Plan does not constitute a contract of employment, and selection as a Participant
will not give any participating Employee the right to be retained in the employ of the Company or any Subsidiary or any right or claim
to any benefit under the Plan, unless the right or claim has specifically accrued under the terms of the Plan. No individual shall have
the right to be selected to receive an Award under the Plan, or, having been so selected, to receive a future Award under the Plan.

(c) No
Rights as a Stockholder. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or in an Award Agreement, no Award shall confer upon the holder
thereof any rights as a stockholder of the Company before the date on which the individual fulfills all conditions for receipt of such
rights.

Section 7.2. Transferability. Except as otherwise so
provided by the Committee, Stock Options under the Plan are not transferable except: (i) as designated by the Participant by will
or by the laws of descent and distribution; (ii) to a trust established by the Participant, if under Code Section 671 and applicable
state law, the Participant is considered the sole beneficial owner of the Stock Option while held in trust; or (iii) between spouses
incident to a divorce or pursuant to a domestic relations order, provided, however, in the case of a transfer within the meaning of Section 7.2(iii),
the Stock Option shall not qualify as an ISO as of the day of the transfer. The Committee shall have the discretion to permit the transfer
of vested Stock Options (other than ISOs) under the Plan; provided, however, that such transfers shall be limited to Immediate
Family Members of Participants, trusts and partnerships established for the primary benefit of the family members or to charitable organizations,
and; provided, further, that the transfers are not made for consideration to the Participant.

Awards of Restricted Stock shall not be transferable before the time
that the Awards vest in the Participant. A Restricted Stock Unit Award is not transferable, except in the event of death, before the time
that the Restricted Stock Unit Award vests and is earned and the property in which the Restricted Stock Unit is denominated is distributed
to the Participant or the Participant’s Beneficiary.

Section 7.3. Designation of Beneficiaries. A Participant
may file with the Company a written designation of a beneficiary or beneficiaries under this Plan and may from time to time revoke or
amend any such designation. Any designation of beneficiary under this Plan shall be controlling over any other disposition, testamentary
or otherwise (unless the disposition is pursuant to a domestic relations order); provided, however, that if the Committee is in
doubt as to the entitlement of any beneficiary to any Award, the Committee may determine to recognize only the legal representative of
the Participant, in which case the Company, the Committee and the members thereof shall not be under any further liability to anyone.

Section 7.4. Non-Exclusivity. Neither the adoption of
this Plan by the Board of Directors nor the submission of the Plan to the stockholders of the Company for approval (and any subsequent
approval by the stockholders of the Company) shall be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board of Directors or
the Committee to adopt other incentive arrangements as may deemed desirable, including, without limitation, the granting of Restricted
Stock Awards, Restricted Stock Units or Stock Options and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific
cases.

Section 7.5. Eligibility for Form and Time of Elections/Notification
Under Code Section 83(b). Unless otherwise specified herein, each election required or permitted to be made by any Participant
or other person entitled to benefits under the Plan, and any permitted modification or revocation thereof, shall be filed with the Company
at such times, in such form, and subject to such restrictions and limitations, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Committee
shall require. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Committee may, on the date of grant or at a later date, as applicable,
prohibit an individual from making an election under Code Section 83(b). If the Committee has not prohibited an individual from making
this election, an individual who makes this election shall notify the Committee of the election within ten (10) days of filing notice
of the election with the Internal Revenue Service or as otherwise required by the Committee. This requirement is in addition to any filing
and notification required under the regulations issued under the authority of Code Section 83(b).

Section 7.6. Evidence. Evidence required of anyone under
the Plan may be by certificate, affidavit, document or other written information upon which the person is acting considers pertinent and
reliable, and signed, made or presented by the proper party or parties.

Section 7.7. Tax Withholding. Where a Participant is
entitled to receive shares of Stock upon the vesting or exercise of an Award, the Company shall have the right to require the Participant
to pay to the Company the amount of any tax that the Company is required to withhold with respect to the vesting or exercise, or, in lieu
thereof, to retain, or to sell without notice, a sufficient number of shares of Stock to cover the amount required to be withheld. To
the extent determined by the Committee and specified in an Award Agreement, a Participant shall have the right to direct the Company to
satisfy the amount required for federal, state and local tax withholding by: (i) with respect to a Stock Option, reducing the number
of shares of Stock subject to the Stock Option (without issuance of the shares of Stock to the Stock Option holder) by a number equal
to the quotient of (a) the amount of required tax withholding divided by (b) the excess of the Fair Market Value of a share
of Stock on the exercise date over the Exercise Price per share of Stock; and (ii) with respect to Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted
Stock Units, withholding a number of shares (based on the Fair Market Value on the vesting date) otherwise vesting that would satisfy
the amount of required tax withholding. Provided there are no adverse accounting consequences to the Company (a requirement to have liability
classification of an award under FASB ASC Topic 718 is an adverse consequence), a Participant who is not required to have taxes withheld
may require the Company to withhold in accordance with the preceding sentence as if the Award were subject to tax withholding requirements.

Section 7.8. Action by Company or Subsidiary. Any action
required or permitted to be taken by the Company or any Subsidiary shall be by resolution or unanimous written consent of its board of
directors, or by action of one or more members of the board of directors (including a committee of the board of directors) who are duly
authorized to act for the board of directors, or (except to the extent prohibited by applicable law or applicable rules of the Exchange
on which the Company lists its securities) by a duly authorized officer of the Company or Subsidiary.

Section 7.9. Successors. All obligations of the Company
under the Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successor to the Company, whether the existence of the successor
is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise, of all or substantially all of the business, stock,
and/or assets of the Company.

Section 7.10. Indemnification. To the fullest extent
permitted by law and the Company’s governing documents, each person who is or shall have been a member of the Committee, or of the
Board of Directors, or an officer of the Company to whom authority was delegated in accordance with Section 5.3, or an Employee of
the Company, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company against and from any loss (including amounts paid in settlement), cost,
liability or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by him or her in connection
with or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which he or she may be a party or in which he or she may be involved
by reason of any action taken or failure to act under the Plan and against and from any and all amounts paid by him or her in settlement
thereof, with the Company’s approval, or paid by him or her in satisfaction of any judgment in any such action, suit, or proceeding
against him or her, provided he or she shall give the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before
he or she undertakes to handle and defend it on his or her own behalf, unless such loss, cost, liability, or expense is a result of his
or her own willful misconduct or except as expressly provided by statute or regulation. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not
be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled under the Company’s charter or bylaws,
as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless. The foregoing right
to indemnification shall include the right to be paid by the Company the expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance
of its final disposition, provided, however, that, if required by applicable law, an advancement of expenses shall be made only upon delivery
to the Company of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such persons to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined
by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal that such person is not entitled to be indemnified for such
expenses.

Section 7.11. No Fractional Shares. Unless otherwise
permitted by the Committee, no fractional shares of Stock shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or any Award Agreement. The
Committee shall determine whether cash or other property shall be issued or paid in lieu of fractional shares or whether the fractional
shares or any rights thereto shall be forfeited or otherwise eliminated by rounding down.

Section 7.12. Governing Law. The Plan, all Awards granted
hereunder, and all actions taken in connection herewith shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
Ohio without reference to principles of conflict of laws, except as superseded by applicable federal law. The federal and state courts
located in the State of Ohio, shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any claim, action, complaint or lawsuit brought under the terms of
the Plan. By accepting any Award, each Participant and any other person claiming any rights under the Plan agrees to submit himself or
herself and any legal action that brought with respect to the Plan, to the sole jurisdiction of such courts for the adjudication and resolution
of any such disputes.

Section 7.13. Benefits Under Other Plans. Except as otherwise
provided by the Committee or as set forth in a Qualified Retirement Plan, non-qualified plan or other benefit plan, Awards to a Participant
(including the grant and the receipt of benefits) under the Plan shall be disregarded for purposes of determining the Participant’s
benefits under, or contributions to, any Qualified Retirement Plan, non-qualified plan and any other benefit plans maintained by the Participant’s
employer. The term “Qualified Retirement Plan” means any plan of the Company or a Subsidiary that is intended to be
qualified under Code Section 401(a).

Section 7.14. Validity. If any provision of this Plan
is determined to be illegal or invalid for any reason, said illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts of the Plan,
but this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision has never been included herein.

Section 7.15. Notice. Unless otherwise provided in an
Award Agreement, all written notices and all other written communications to the Company provided for in the Plan or in any Award Agreement,
shall be delivered personally or sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid (provided that international
mail shall be sent via overnight or two-day delivery), or sent by facsimile, email or prepaid overnight courier to the Company at its
principal executive office. Notices, demands, claims and other communications shall be deemed given:

(a) in
the case of delivery by overnight service with guaranteed next day delivery, the next day or the day designated for delivery;

(b) in
the case of certified or registered U.S. mail, five (5) days after deposit in the U.S. mail; or

(c) in
the case of facsimile or email, the date upon which the transmitting party received confirmation of receipt; provided, however,
that in no event shall any such communications be deemed to be given later than the date they are actually received, provided they are
actually received.

If a communication is not received, it shall only be deemed received
upon the showing of an original of the applicable receipt, registration or confirmation from the applicable delivery service. Communications
that are to be delivered by U.S. mail or by overnight service to the Company shall be directed to the attention of the Company’s
Corporate Secretary, unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement.

Section 7.16. Forfeiture Events. The Committee may specify
in an Award Agreement that the Participant’s rights, payments, and benefits with respect to an Award shall be subject to reduction,
cancellation, forfeiture or recoupment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, in addition to any otherwise applicable vesting
or performance conditions of an Award. These events include, but are not limited to, termination of employment for Cause, termination
of the Participant’s provision of Services to the Company or any Subsidiary, violation of material Company or Subsidiary policies,
breach of noncompetition, confidentiality, or other restrictive covenants that may apply to the Participant, or other conduct of the Participant
that is detrimental to the business or reputation of the Company or any Subsidiary.

Section 7.17. Awards Subject to Clawback.

(a) If
the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to the material noncompliance of the Company, as a result of
misconduct, with any financial reporting requirement under the federal securities laws, and the automatic forfeiture provisions
under Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 apply as a result, any Participant who was an executive officer of the
Company at the time of grant or at the time of restatement shall be subject to “clawback” as if the person was subject
to Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

(b) Awards
granted hereunder are subject to any Clawback Policy that may be adopted by the Company from time to time, whether pursuant to the provisions
of Section 954 of the Dodd-Frank Act, implementing regulations thereunder, or otherwise

Section 7.18. Automatic Exercise. In the sole discretion
of the Committee exercised in accordance with Section 5.2(a), any Stock Options that are exercisable but unexercised as of the day immediately
before the tenth anniversary of the date of grant (or other expiration date) may be automatically exercised, in accordance with procedures
established for this purpose by the Committee, but only if the Exercise Price is less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on
that date and the automatic exercise will result in the issuance of at least one (1) whole share of Stock to the Participant after
payment of the Exercise Price and any applicable tax withholding requirements. Payment of the Exercise Price and any applicable tax withholding
requirements shall be made by a net settlement of the Stock Option whereby the number of shares of Stock to be issued upon exercise are
reduced by a number of shares having a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal to the Exercise Price and any applicable tax withholding.

Section 7.19. Regulatory Requirements. The grant and
settlement of Awards shall be conditioned upon and subject to compliance with Section 18(k) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act,
12 U.S.C. 1828(k), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

ARTICLE 8 — DEFINED TERMS; CONSTRUCTION

Section 8.1. In addition to the other definitions contained
herein, unless otherwise specifically provided in an Award Agreement, the following definitions shall apply:

(a) “10%
Stockholder” means an individual who, at the time of grant, owns stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting
power of all classes of stock of the Company.

to a Participant under the Plan.

(c) “Award

(d) “Board
of Directors” means the Board of Directors of the Company.

(e) If
the Participant is a party to a written employment agreement (or other similar written agreement) with the Company or a Subsidiary
that provides a definition of termination for “Cause,” then, for purposes of this Plan, the term
“Cause” shall have meaning set forth in the agreement. In the absence of such a definition, “Cause”
means termination because of a Participant’s personal dishonesty, incompetence, willful misconduct, breach of fiduciary duty
involving personal profit, material breach of the Company’s or the Bank’s (or other Subsidiary’s) Code of Ethics,
material violation of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requirements for officers of public companies that in the reasonable opinion of
the Chief Executive Officer of the Company or the Bank or the Board of Directors will likely cause substantial financial harm or
substantial injury to the reputation of the Bank or the Company, willfully engaging in actions that in the reasonable opinion of the
Board of Directors will likely cause substantial financial harm or substantial injury to the business reputation of the Bank or the
Company, intentional failure to perform stated duties, willful violation of any law, rule or regulation (other than routine traffic
violations or similar offenses) or final cease-and-desist order, or material breach of any provision of the contract.

(f) “Change

the Participant is a party to a written employment agreement (or other similar written agreement) with the Company or a Subsidiary that

“Disability” or “Disabled” shall have meaning set forth in that agreement. In the absence of such a definition,
“Disability” shall be defined in accordance with the Bank’s long-term disability plan. In the absence of a long-term
disability plan or to the extent that an Award is subject to Code Section 409A, “Disability” or “Disabled”
shall mean that a Participant has been determined to be disabled by the Social Security Administration. Except to the extent prohibited
under Code Section 409A, if applicable, the Committee shall have discretion to determine if a Disability has occurred.

(j) “Disinterested
Board Member” means a member of the Board of Directors who: (i) is not a current Employee of the Company or a Subsidiary;
(ii) is not a former employee of the Company or a Subsidiary who receives compensation for prior Services (other than benefits under
a tax-qualified retirement plan) during the taxable year; (iii) has not been an officer of the Company or a Subsidiary for the past
three (3) years; (iv) does not receive compensation from the Company or a Subsidiary, either directly or indirectly, for services

thereto; and (v) does not possess an interest in any other transaction, and is not engaged in a business relationship for which disclosure

to the contrary, no Performance Award shall be granted under terms that will permit its accelerated vesting upon termination of Service
(other than death or Disability or upon an Involuntary Termination following a Change in Control).

Performance measures can include, but are not limited
to: book value or tangible book value per share; basic earnings per share (e.g., earnings before interest and taxes, earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization; or earnings per share); basic cash earnings per share; diluted earnings per share;

achievement of balance sheet or income statement objectives and strategic business objectives, or any combination of these or other measures.

Performance measures may be based on the
performance of the Company as a whole or on any one or more Subsidiaries or business units of the Company or a Subsidiary and may be
measured relative to a peer group, an index or a business plan and may be considered as absolute measures or changes in measures.
The terms of an Award may provide that partial achievement of performance measures may result in partial payment or vesting of the
award or that the achievement of the performance measures may be measured over more than one period or fiscal year. In establishing
any performance measures, the Committee may provide for the exclusion of the effects of the following items, to the extent the
exclusion is set forth in the Award Agreement and identified in the audited financial statements of the Company, including
footnotes, or in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis section of the Company’s annual report or in the Compensation
Discussion and Analysis Section, if any, of the Company’s annual proxy statement: (i) extraordinary, unusual, and/or
nonrecurring items of gain or loss; (ii) gains or losses on the disposition of a business; (iii) dividends declared on the
Company’s stock; (iv) changes in tax or accounting principles, regulations or laws; or (v) expenses incurred in
connection with a merger, branch acquisition or similar transaction. Subject to the preceding sentence, if the Committee determines
that a change in the business, operations, corporate structure or capital structure of the Company or the manner in which the
Company or its Subsidiaries conducts its business or other events or circumstances render current performance measures to be
unsuitable, the Committee may modify the performance measures, in whole or in part, as the Committee deems appropriate.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, performance measures relating to any Award hereunder will be modified, to the
extent applicable, to reflect a change in the outstanding shares of Stock of the Company by reason of any stock dividend or stock
split, or a corporate transaction, such as a merger of the Company into another corporation, any separation of a corporation or any
partial or complete liquidation by the Company or a Subsidiary. If a Participant is promoted, demoted or transferred to a different
business unit during a performance period, the Committee may determine that the selected performance measures or applicable
performance period are no longer appropriate, in which case, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may: (i) adjust, change or
eliminate the performance measures or change the applicable performance period; or (ii) cause to be made a cash payment to the
Participant in an amount determined by the Committee.

(w) “Restricted
Stock” or “Restricted Stock Award” has the meaning ascribed to it in Section 2.3(a).

(x) “Restricted
Stock Unit” has the meaning ascribed to it in Section 2.4(a).

Period” has the meaning set forth in Section 2.4(b)(iii).

from time to time.

(bb) “Service”
means service as an Employee or Director of the Company or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, and shall include service as a director emeritus
or advisory director. Service shall not be deemed interrupted in the case of sick leave, military leave or any other absence approved
by the Company or a Subsidiary, in the case of transferees between payroll locations or between the Company, a Subsidiary or a successor.

(cc) “Stock”
means the common stock of the Company, $0.01 par value per share.

(dd) “Stock
Option” has the meaning ascribed to it in Section 2.2.

(ee) “Subsidiary”
means any corporation, affiliate, bank or other entity which would be a subsidiary corporation with respect to the Company as defined
in Code Section 424(f) and, other than with respect to an ISO, shall also mean any partnership or joint venture in which the Company
and/or other Subsidiary owns more than 50% of the capital or profits interests.

(ff) “Termination
of Service” means the first day occurring on or after a grant date on which the Participant ceases to be an Employee or Director
(including a director emeritus or advisory director) of the Company or any Subsidiary, regardless of the reason for such cessation, subject
to the following:

(i) The
Participant’s cessation as an Employee shall not be deemed to occur by reason of the transfer of the Participant between the Company
and a Subsidiary or between two Subsidiaries.

(ii) The
Participant’s cessation as an Employee shall not be deemed to occur by reason of the Participant’s being on a bona fide
leave of absence from the Company or a Subsidiary approved by the Company or Subsidiary otherwise receiving the Participant’s
Services, provided the leave of absence does not exceed six (6) months, or if longer, so long as the Employee retains a right to
reemployment with the Company or Subsidiary under an applicable statute or by contract. For these purposes, a leave of absence
constitutes a bona fide leave of absence only if there is a reasonable expectation that the Employee will return to perform Services
for the Company or Subsidiary. If the period of leave exceeds six (6) months and the Employee does not retain a right to
reemployment under an applicable statute or by contract, the employment relationship is deemed to terminate on the first day
immediately following the six-month period. For purposes of this sub-section, to the extent applicable, an Employee’s leave of
absence shall be interpreted by the Committee in a manner consistent with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)(1).

(iii) If,
as a result of a sale or other transaction, the Subsidiary for whom Participant is employed (or to whom the Participant is providing Services)
ceases to be a Subsidiary, and the Participant is not, following the transaction, an Employee of the Company or an entity that is then
a Subsidiary, then the occurrence of the transaction shall be treated as the Participant’s Termination of Service caused by the
Participant being discharged by the entity by which the Participant is employed or to which the Participant is providing Services.

(iv) Except
to the extent Code Section 409A may be applicable to an Award, and subject to the foregoing paragraphs of this sub-section, the Committee
shall have discretion to determine if a Termination of Service has occurred and the date on which it occurred. If any Award under the
Plan constitutes Deferred Compensation (as defined in Section 2.6), the term Termination of Service shall be interpreted by the Committee
in a manner consistent with the definition of “Separation from Service” as defined under Code Section 409A and under
Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)(ii). For purposes of this Plan, a “Separation from Service” shall have occurred
if the employer and Participant reasonably anticipate that no further Services will be performed by the Participant after the date of
the Termination of Service (whether as an employee or as an independent contractor) or the level of further Services performed will be
less than 50% of the average level of bona fide Services in the thirty-six (36) months immediately preceding the Termination of Service.
If a Participant is a “Specified Employee,” as defined in Code Section 409A and any payment to be made hereunder shall be
determined to be subject to Code Section 409A, then if required by Code Section 409A, the payment or a portion of the payment (to
the minimum extent possible) shall be delayed and shall be paid on the first day of the seventh month following Participant’s Separation
from Service.

(v) With
respect to a Participant who is a Director, cessation as a Director will not be deemed to have occurred if the Participant continues as
a director emeritus or advisory director. With respect to a Participant who is both an Employee and a Director, termination of employment
as an Employee shall not constitute a Termination of Service for purposes of the Plan so long as the Participant continues to provide
Service as a Director or director emeritus or advisory director.

(gg) “Voting
Securities” means any securities which ordinarily possess the power to vote in the election of directors without the happening
of any pre-condition or contingency.

Section 8.2. In this Plan, unless otherwise stated or the context
otherwise requires, the following uses apply:

(a) actions
permitted under this Plan may be taken at any time and from time to time in the actor’s reasonable discretion;

(b) references
to a statute shall refer to the statute and any successor statute, and to all regulations promulgated under or implementing the statute
or its successor, as in effect at the relevant time;

(c) in
computing periods from a specified date to a later specified date, the words “from” and “commencing on” (and the
like) mean “from and including,” and the words “to,” “until” and “ending on” (and the
like) mean “to, but excluding”;

(d) references
to a governmental or quasi-governmental agency, authority or instrumentality shall also refer to a regulatory body that succeeds to the
functions of the agency, authority or instrumentality;

(e) indications
of time of day mean Eastern Time;

(f) “including”
means “including, but not limited to”;

(g) all
references to sections, schedules and exhibits are to sections, schedules and exhibits in or to this Plan unless otherwise specified;

(h) all
words used in this Plan will be construed to be of the gender or number as the circumstances and context require;

(i) the
captions and headings of articles, sections, schedules and exhibits appearing in or attached to this Plan have been inserted solely for
convenience of reference and shall not be considered a part of this Plan nor shall any of them affect the meaning or interpretation of
this Plan or any of its provisions;

(j) any
reference to a document or set of documents in this Plan, and the rights and obligations of the parties under any such documents, shall
mean such document or documents as amended from time to time, and any and all modifications, extensions, renewals, substitutions or replacements
thereof; and

(k) all
accounting terms not specifically defined herein shall be construed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the
United States of America.
