On November 29, 2012, SBT Bancorp, Inc.’s primary subsidiary, The Simsbury Bank & Trust Company (the “Bank”), entered into a Supplemental Executive Retirement Agreement (the “SERP Agreement”) with Michael T. Sheahan, Senior Vice President and Chief Mortgage and Consumer Lending Officer of the Bank.
 
The SERP agreement is an unfunded, non-qualified supplemental retirement program for Mr. Sheahan and provides for supplemental retirement benefits payable in installments over 15 years upon his attainment of normal retirement age of 65.  The supplemental retirement benefits are to be earned over the remaining working career of Mr. Sheahan subject to certain conditions.  Under the SERP Agreement, the projected retirement benefit for Mr. Sheahan, assuming he remains employed by the Bank until normal retirement age of 65, is $20,000 per year, with such payments beginning in the year he turns 65 years old.  The benefits are capped at the above amounts and are subject to being substantially less should Mr. Sheahan not remain employed by the Bank until the normal retirement age of 65.  The SERP Agreement also contains restrictive covenants that may result in Mr. Sheahan forfeiting all accrued benefits should he be terminated for cause, be removed by regulatory order, or accept employment with a competing financial institution after his termination of employment with the Bank during the term of the SERP Agreement and within 12 months following his termination of employment with the Bank.
 
The foregoing description of the SERP Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the SERP Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.
