(2) This option was previously reported as an option for 1,100 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $22.92 per share, but was adjusted to reflect the 5% stock dividends declared by Evans Bancorp, Inc. on November 16, 2004, payable on December 30, 2004 to shareholders of record on December 9, 2004 AND a 5% stock dividend declared by Evans Bancorp, Inc. on October 18, 2005, payable on December 7, 2005 to shareholders of record on November 15, 2005. As a result of the stock dividends, the exercise price is adjusted to $19.80, and pursuant to the anti-dilution provision of Evans Bancorp, Inc.'s 1999 Stock Option and Long-Term Incentive Plan, the option entitled the reporting person to receive, upon exercise, 58 additional shares of common stock for no additional consideration.
