The Company maintains the Embassy Bancorp, Inc. Stock Incentive Plan (the “SIP”), originally adopted by the Company’s shareholders effective June 16, 2010 and subsequently amended, restated, and approved on June 20, 2019. The SIP authorizes the Board of Directors, or a committee authorized by the Board of Directors, to award a stock based incentive to (i) designated officers (including officers who are directors) and other designated employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, and (ii) non-employee members of the Board of Directors and advisors and consultants to the Company and its subsidiaries. The SIP provides for stock based incentives in the form of incentive stock options as provided in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and deferred stock awards. The term of the option, the amount of time for the option to vest after grant, if any, and other terms and limitations will be determined at the time of grant. Options granted under the SIP may not have an exercise period that is more than ten years from the time the option is granted. The maximum number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the SIP is 756,356. The SIP provides for appropriate adjustments in the number and kind of shares available for grant or subject to outstanding awards under the SIP to avoid dilution in the event of mergers, stock splits, stock dividends or other changes in the capitalization of the Company. The SIP expires on June 20, 2029. At June 30, 2026, there were 322,454 shares available for issuance under the SIP.

The Company grants shares of restricted stock, under the SIP, to certain members of its Board of Directors as compensation for their services, in accordance with the Company’s Non-employee Directors Compensation program adopted in October 2010. The Company also grants restricted stock to certain officers under individual agreements with these officers. Some of these restricted stock awards vest immediately, while the remainder vest over the service period of three years. Management recognizes compensation expense for the fair value of the restricted stock awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Since inception of the plan and through the six months ended June 30, 2026, there have been 317,659 awards granted. There were no awards granted during the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, while the Company recognized compensation expense for prior restricted stock awards of $28 thousand and $27 thousand, respectively.
