ITEM 5.02

Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensation Arrangements of Certain Officers

(e) On December 19, 2018, Chemung Canal Trust Company (the “Bank”), the wholly-owned subsidiary of Chemung Financial Corporation (the “Company”), entered into amended and restated change in control agreements with each of (1) Anders M. Tomson, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Bank; (2) Karl F. Krebs, Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer of the Bank; (3) Louis C. DiFabio, Executive Vice President of the Bank; (4) Karen R. Makowski, Executive Vice President and Chief Risk Officer of the Bank; and (5) Thomas W. Wirth, Executive Vice President of the Bank (collectively, the “Executive Officers”). The agreements supersede and replace the prior change in control agreements with each of the Executive Officers, and the material changes were to: (i) modify the qualifying termination event that triggers a severance payment following a change in control so that the agreements each have a double trigger change in control provision instead of a modified single trigger change in control provision; (ii) clarify that the Executive Officer’s change in control severance pay would equal a multiple of his or her base salary and highest annual incentive award, regardless if paid in the form of cash or unrestricted stock to the Company’s or the Bank’s incentive compensation arrangements, paid to or earned by the executive during the calendar year of the change in control or either of the two (2) calendar years preceding the change in control; and (3) eliminate the cutback provision with respect to Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code.

The foregoing description does not purport to be complete and it is qualified in its entirety to reference to the change in control agreements that are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4 and 10.5 of this Form 8-K, and are incorporated by reference.
