Compensatory Arrangements

On January 28, 2025, the Board approved the following actions, which were approved by the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) and recommended to the Board:

•
Base Salary Increases.  New annual base salaries were approved for the following named executive officers (“NEOs”):  Mark A. Gooch (Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer) - $725,000; Kevin J. Stumbo (Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, and Treasurer) - $400,000; Richard W. Newsom (Executive Vice President) - $393,000; and Ricky D. Sparkman (Executive Vice President) - $350,000.  James B. Draughn (Executive Vice President) announced his retirement effective January 31, 2025.

•
Cash Incentive Compensation Awards for the Year(s) Ended December 31, 2024. CTBI’s NEOs were participants in CTBI’s Senior Management Incentive Compensation Plan for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “2024 Plan”).  The Committee previously established the performance measures under the 2024 Plan and the required base level of performance for payment was achieved by CTBI under the 2024 Plan.  Accordingly, the NEOs received payments (paid in January 2025) as follows:

 
2025 Cash Payments Awarded ($)
Mark A. Gooch – Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer

CTBI’s NEOs were also participants in CTBI’s 2022 Executive Committee Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (“2022 Plan”) for the three-year period ending December 31, 2024.  The Committee previously established the performance measures under the 2022 Plan and the required base level of performance was achieved by CTBI for payment under the 2022 Plan.  Accordingly, the NEOs were entitled to the following cash incentive awards (paid in January 2025):

Grants of Restricted Stock.

Plans for Annual Incentive Compensation Awards for the Year Ending December 31, 2025.  The Committee recommended and the Board approved the Senior Management Incentive Compensation Plan for the year ending December 31, 2025 (the “2025 Plan”) which is included herein as Exhibit 10.7 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.  The participation groups under the 2025 Plan are: (i) Group I, consisting of the CEO of CTBI and other members of the Executive Committee (“Other Executive Officers”); (ii) Group II, consisting of Community Trust Bank, Inc. (“CTB”) officers responsible for the various consolidated functions as selected by the CEO, the Presidents of each market, and the Community Trust and Investment Company (“CTIC”) officers responsible for various departments as selected by the CTIC CEO; and (iii) Group III, consisting of Senior Vice Presidents of consolidated functions selected for participation by the Committee.  Individuals below the Senior Vice President level may be selected by the Committee for special option awards for extraordinary performance.  This Plan may be amended, modified, or terminated by the Board at any time at its sole discretion, except that after the 90th day of the year the performance standards may not be changed in a manner that would increase the amount of incentive compensation payable for such year.

o
Participants will be eligible for a cash award determined by earnings per share (“EPS”) and earnings as a percentage of average assets (“ROAA”).  The minimum and maximum awards as a percentage of salary for each group will be: (i) Group I – CTBI CEO minimum award of 25% of salary and maximum award of 100% of salary; (ii) Group I – Other Executive Officers minimum award of 15% of salary and maximum award of 60% of salary; (iii) Group II – minimum award of 3.5% of salary and maximum award of 8.75% of salary; and (iv) Group III – minimum award of 2.75% of salary and maximum award of 6.71% of salary.  In the event that the ROAA or EPS are not attained but the target net income is attained, the amount of the award under the 2024 Plan shall be paid at the base level of target performance payment.  There shall be a minimum acceptable performance beneath which no incentive awards are paid and a maximum above which there is no additional award paid to avoid excessive payout in the event of windfall profits.

o
Participants will be eligible to receive stock options (pursuant to CTBI’s 2025 Stock Ownership Incentive Plan) with a face value equal to certain percentages of salary or restricted stock (or a combination of options and restricted stock) of an amount recommended by the Committee and approved by the Board of CTBI subject to any limitations of the 2025 Stock Ownership Incentive Plan.  The minimum and maximum stock option awards as a percentage of salary for each group will be: (i) Group I – CTBI CEO minimum award of 10% of salary and maximum award of 23% of salary; (ii) Group I – Other Executive Officers minimum award of 7.5% of salary and maximum award of 17.25% of salary; (iii) Group II – minimum award of 5% of salary and maximum award of 11.5% of salary; and (iv) Group III – minimum award of 2.25% of salary and maximum award of 5% of salary.  In the event that the ROAA or EPS are not attained but the target net income is attained, the amount of stock options and/or restricted stock awarded under the 2025 Plan shall be granted at the base level of target performance.  There shall be a minimum acceptable performance beneath which awards will not be granted and a maximum above which there is no additional award in the event of windfall profits.

The Committee also recommended and the Board approved the Employee Incentive Compensation Plan for the year ending December 31, 2025 which is included herein as Exhibit 10.9 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.  Full-time employees who do not participate in another incentive plan are eligible to participate in this Plan.  This Plan may be amended, modified, or terminated by the Board at any time at its sole discretion, except that after the 90th day of the year the target award and the performance standards may not be changed in a manner that would increase the amount of incentive compensation payable over the amount which would have been payable under the performance standards previously established.

o
Participants will be eligible for a cash award determined by EPS and ROAA.  The minimum and maximum awards as a percentage of salary for each participant will be: minimum award – 2% of salary and maximum award – 4.5% of salary.  In the event that the ROAA or EPS are not attained but the target net income is attained, the amount of the award under the 2024 Plan shall be paid at the base level of target performance payment.  There shall be a minimum acceptable performance beneath which no incentive awards are paid and a maximum above which there is no additional award paid to avoid excessive payout in the event of windfall profits.

•
Plan for Long-Term Incentive Compensation for Executive Committee.  The Committee recommended and the Board approved the 2025 Executive Committee Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan which is included herein as Exhibit 10.11 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.  This Plan may be amended, modified, or terminated by the Board at any time at its sole discretion, except that after the 90th day of the year, the performance goals set forth within may not be amended in a manner which would increase the amount of compensation payable pursuant to performance units over the amount which would have been payable under the performance goals previously established for such year.  Participants in this Plan will be the members of the Executive Committee of CTBI.

o
The target award fund shall be generated by 40% of the salary of the CTBI CEO and 20% of the salary of other members of the Executive Committee.  The target award may be changed by the Committee of the Board at any time during the Performance Period (as defined in the Plan) at their discretion provided, however, that the target award as a percentage of salary may not be increased after the 90th day of the 2025 calendar year.

o
The actual amount of payments under the performance units shall be calculated according to a schedule comparing cumulative net income (over a three-year performance period) to the performance goals described within the Plan and payments will be made in the form of cash or shares.  The minimum and maximum awards as a percentage of salary will be 10% and 60%, respectively, for the CTBI CEO and 5% and 30%, respectively, for all other members of the Executive Committee, respectively.  No amounts may be paid under the performance units unless CTBI attains a minimum acceptable performance, and no additional amounts may be paid above the maximum performance level.
