14.	Stock Compensation Plans

April 2014,

the Corporation adopted the

2014

Stock Incentive Plan (the

2014

Plan), which is shareholder approved and permits the grant of restricted stock awards and options to its directors, officers and employees for up to

176,866

shares of common stock, of which

37,783

shares of restricted stock and

88,433

stock options remain available for issuance under the plan.

Incentive stock options, non-incentive or compensatory stock options and share awards

may

be granted under the Plans. The exercise price of each option shall at least equal the market price of a share of common stock on the date of grant and have a contractual term of

ten

years. Options shall vest and become exercisable at the rate, to the extent and subject to such limitations as

may

be specified by the Corporation. Compensation cost related to share-based payment transactions must be recognized in the financial statements with measurement based upon the fair value of the equity instruments issued.

During

2018

and

2017,

the Corporation granted restricted stock awards of

14,750

and

13,250

shares, respectively, with a face value of

$456,000

and

$416,000,

respectively, based on the weighted-average grant date stock prices of

$30.90

and

$31.37,

respectively. These restricted stock awards are

100%

vested on the

third

anniversary of the date of grant, except in the event of death, disability or retirement. Nonvested restricted stock is

not

included in common shares outstanding on the consolidated balance sheets. It is the Corporation's policy to issue shares on the vesting date for restricted stock awards. Unvested restricted stock awards do

not

receive dividends declared by the Corporation. There were

stock options granted during

2018

2017.

For the year ended

December

31,

2018

and

2017

the Corporation recognized

$269,000

and

$230,000,

respectively, in stock compensation expense.

A summary of the status of the Corporation’s nonvested restricted stock awards as of

December

31,

2018,

and changes during the period then ended is presented below:

As of

three

years.
