(e)
On November 2, 2020, Community Bank, the wholly owned subsidiary of CB Financial Services, Inc., entered into a Split Dollar Life Insurance Agreement with John H. Montgomery, President and Chief Executive Officer. (the “Agreement”).  Under the Agreement, Mr. Montgomery’s designated beneficiary will be entitled to share in the death proceeds payable under a life insurance policy owned by Community Bank on the life of Mr. Montgomery (the “Policy”) in the event of his death while the Agreement is in effect.  Such amount is equal to (i) $500,000, minus (ii) the value of Mr. Montgomery’s 5,000 shares of restricted stock and 15,000 stock options awarded under the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan on August 31, 2020 determined as of the date of death, provided, however, that the death proceeds will not exceed the “net death proceeds.”  The “net death proceeds” is defined as the total death proceeds of the Policy minus the greater of: (i) the cash surrender value or (ii) the aggregate premiums paid by the Bank related to the Policy.

Community Bank is the sole beneficiary of any death proceeds remaining after the aforementioned death proceeds have been paid to Mr. Montgomery’s designated beneficiary.

The Agreement will terminate on October 1, 2025 or, if earlier, upon distribution of the death proceeds to Mr. Montgomery’s designated beneficiary as described above.

The foregoing description of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.
