Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Merger Agreement

On December 19, 2019, Evans Bancorp, Inc. (“Evans”), a New York corporation and the parent holding company of Evans Bank, N.A. (“Evans Bank”), MMS Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a Maryland corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Evans, and FSB Bancorp, Inc. (“FSB”), a Maryland corporation and the parent holding company of Fairport Savings Bank (“FSB Bank”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Agreement”), pursuant to which, subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, among other things, (i) Merger Sub will merge with and into FSB (the “Merger”), with FSB continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger and a wholly owned subsidiary of Evans, (ii) immediately thereafter, FSB (as the surviving corporation in the Merger) will merge with and into Evans (together with the Merger, the “Holdco Mergers”), with Evans being the surviving corporation and (iii) immediately thereafter, FSB Bank will merge with and into Evans Bank, with Evans Bank continuing as the surviving bank (together with the Holdco Mergers, the “Merger Transactions”).

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, upon the consummation of the Merger, FSB stockholders will have the right to receive, subject to possible adjustment, for each share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of FSB (“FSB Common Stock”), either (i) 0.4394 shares of common stock, par value $0.50 per share, of Evans (“Evans Common Stock”), or (ii) $17.80 in cash, at the election of such holder. All such elections are subject to adjustment on a pro rata basis, so that approximately 50% of the aggregate consideration paid to FSB stockholders will be cash and approximately 50% will be Evans Common Stock.

The Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and covenants by Evans and FSB, including, among others, covenants relating to (1) the conduct of each party’s business during the period prior to the consummation of the Merger, (2) FSB’s obligations to facilitate FSB’s stockholders’ consideration of, and voting upon, the Agreement and the Merger, (3) the recommendation by the FSB board of directors in favor of approval of the Agreement and the Merger Transactions, and (4) FSB’s non-solicitation obligations relating to alternative business combination transactions. Furthermore, the Agreement provides that, following the consummation of the Merger, Kevin D. Maroney, President and Chief Executive Officer of FSB, will join the Evans board of directors.

The Merger is subject to customary closing conditions, including, among others, (1) approval of the Agreement and the Merger by the stockholders of FSB, (2) receipt of required regulatory approvals, (3) the absence of any law or order prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement (including the Merger Transactions), (4) the effectiveness of the registration statement for the Evans Common Stock to be issued in the Merger, and (5) the approval of the listing on the New York Stock Exchange American of Evans Common Stock to be issued in the Merger.

Each party’s obligation to consummate the Merger Transactions is also subject to certain additional customary conditions, including (1) subject to certain exceptions, the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the other party, (2) performance in all material respects by the other party of its obligations under the Agreement and (3) receipt by such party of an opinion from its counsel to the effect that the Holdco Mergers, taken together, will qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Evans’ obligation to consummate the Merger Transactions is also subject to the receipt of regulatory approvals without the imposition of a condition that is materially and unreasonably burdensome to Evans’ business or the business of FSB or FSB Bank, in each case following the Closing, or which would reduce the economic benefits of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement to Evans to a degree that Evans would not have entered into the Agreement had such condition been known to it at the date of the Agreement.

The Agreement provides certain termination rights for both Evans and FSB and further provides that a termination fee of $1,400,000 will be payable by FSB, upon termination of the Agreement under certain circumstances.

The representations, warranties and covenants of each party set forth in the Agreement have been made only for purposes of, and were and are solely for the benefit of the parties to, the Agreement, may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Accordingly, the representations and warranties may not describe the actual state of affairs at the date they were made or at any other time, and investors should not rely on them as statements of fact. In addition, such representations and warranties (1) will not survive consummation of the Merger Transactions, unless otherwise specified therein, and (2) were made only as of the date of the Agreement or such other date as is specified in the Agreement. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties and covenants may change after the date of the Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the parties’ public disclosures. Accordingly, the Agreement is included with this filing only to provide investors with information regarding the terms of the Agreement, and not to provide investors with any other factual information regarding Evans or FSB, their respective affiliates or their respective businesses. The Agreement should not be read alone, but should instead be read in conjunction with the other information regarding Evans, FSB, their respective affiliates or their respective businesses, the Agreement and the Merger Transactions that will be contained in, or incorporated by reference into, the Registration Statement on Form S-4 that will include a proxy statement of FSB and a prospectus of Evans, as well as in the Forms 10-K, Forms 10-Q, Forms 8-K and other filings that each of FSB and Evans make, as applicable, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

The foregoing summary of the Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and incorporated by reference herein.

Voting Agreement

In connection with the Agreement, in their capacity as stockholders of FSB, FSB’s directors and certain executive officers entered into a Voting Agreement with Evans and FSB (the “Voting Agreements”). The FSB directors and executive officers that are party to the Voting Agreements beneficially own, in the aggregate, approximately 9.47% of the outstanding shares of FSB Common Stock. The Voting Agreements require, among other things, that the FSB stockholder that is party thereto vote his or her shares of FSB Common Stock in favor of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Agreement and against alternative transactions and not to, directly or indirectly, assign, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of his or her shares of FSB common stock subject to certain exceptions.

The foregoing description of the Voting Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of Voting Agreement, which is attached to this Current Report as Exhibit 10.1, and incorporated by reference herein.

Item 5.02

Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

(e) On December 19, 2019, FSB Bank adopted an amendment to the Supplemental Executive Retirement Agreement (the “SERP”) with Kevin D. Maroney, President and Chief Executive Officer (the “Executive”). The total amount payable under the SERP in the event of Executive’s qualifying termination event following a change in control is $600,000, which is payable in a cash lump sum. All other terms of the SERP remain unchanged.

The foregoing description of the material terms of the aforementioned amendment to the SERP does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated by reference herein.

Item 8.01

Other Events.

On December 19, 2019, Evans and FSB issued a joint press release announcing that Evans and FSB have entered into the Agreement. The joint press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K may contain certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. When used in this Current Report on Form 8-K, or in the documents incorporated by reference herein, the words “will,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “seek,” “look to,” “goal,” “target” and similar expressions identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements relating to the impact Evans and FSB expect the Merger Transactions to have on the combined entities operations, financial condition, and financial results, and Evans’ and FSB’s expectations about their ability to successfully integrate their respective businesses and the amount of cost savings and other benefits Evans and FSB expect to realize as a result of the Merger Transactions. These forward-looking statements are based largely on the expectations of Evans’ and FSB’s respective management and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the possibility that the Merger Transactions do not close when expected or at all because required regulatory, stockholder or other approvals and other conditions to closing are not received or satisfied on a timely basis or at all, the failure to close for any other reason, changes in Evans’ or FSB’s share price before closing, the risk that the businesses of Evans and FSB will not be integrated successfully, the possibility that the cost savings and any synergies or other anticipated benefits from the Merger Transactions may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected, disruption from the Merger Transactions making it more difficult to maintain relationships with employees, customers or other parties with whom Evans or FSB have business relationships, diversion of management time on merger-related issues, risks relating to the potential dilutive effect of the shares of Evans common stock to be issued in the Merger, the reaction to the Merger Transactions of the companies’ customers, employees and counterparties and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of Evans and FSB. We refer you to the additional risk factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described above contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by Evans for the year ended December 31, 2018, the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by FSB for the year ended December 31, 2018 and any updates to those risk factors set forth in Evans’ and FSB’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and other filings, which have been filed by Evans and FSB with the SEC and are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Because of these and other uncertainties, actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those contemplated, expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements contained herein. All forward-looking statements, expressed or implied, included herein are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to herein. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which they are made. Neither Evans nor FSB undertakes any obligation, and specifically declines any obligation, to publicly update or revise forward-looking information, whether as a result of new, updated information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent required by law.

Stockholders and investors are urged to read the Registration Statement and the Proxy Statement/Prospectus regarding the Merger Transactions carefully and in their entirety when they become available and any other relevant documents filed with the SEC by Evans and FSB, as well as any amendments or supplements to those documents, because they will contain important information about Evans, FSB and the Merger Transactions.
