The restricted stock awards granted in the first quarter 2026 were issued pursuant to the terms of CTBI’s 2025 Stock Ownership Incentive Plan.  The restrictions on these shares of restricted stock will lapse ratably over four years, subject to such employee’s continued employment, except for 5,000 shares granted in March 2026 pursuant to a management retention restricted stock award which will cliff vest at the end of five years.  However, in the event of certain participant employee termination events occurring within 24 months of a change in control of CTBI or the death of the participant, the restrictions will lapse, and in the event of the participant’s disability, the restrictions will lapse on a pro rata basis.  The Compensation Committee will have discretion to review and revise restrictions applicable to a participant’s restricted stock in the event of the participant’s retirement.  CTBI recognizes forfeitures when they occur.
