Ladies and Gentlemen:

FSB Community Bankshares, Inc., a federally chartered mid-tier stock holding company (the “Company”), FSB Community Bankshares, MHC, a federally chartered mutual holding company (the “MHC”), and Fairport Savings Bank, a federal savings bank (the “Bank”), each chartered under the laws of the United States of America, hereby confirm their agreement with Sandler X’Xxxxx & Partners, L.P. (“Sandler X’Xxxxx” or the “Agent”) with respect to the offer and sale by the Company of up to 1,135,050 shares (subject to increase up to 1,305,308 shares in the event of an increase in the pro forma market value of the Company’s common stock) of the Company’s common stock, par value $.10 per share (the “Common Stock”). The shares of Common Stock to be sold by the Company in the Offerings (as defined below) are hereinafter called the “Securities.”

The Securities are being offered for sale in accordance with the Plan of Stock Issuance (the “Plan”) adopted by Boards of Directors of the MHC, the Company and the Bank pursuant to which Company will conduct a stock offering, in compliance with regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision (the “OTS”), of up to 47% of the Common Stock of the Company.

Pursuant to the Plan, the Company will offer to certain members of the Bank and to the Bank’s tax qualified employee benefit plans, including the Bank’s employee stock ownership plan (the “ESOP”) (collectively, the “Employee Plans”), rights to subscribe for the Securities in a

subscription offering (the “Subscription Offering”). To the extent Securities are not subscribed for in the Subscription Offering, such Securities may be offered to certain members of the general public and to other persons in a community offering (the “Community Offering”), with preference given first to natural persons and trusts of natural persons residing in the New York Counties of Livingston, Monroe, Ontario, Orleans and Xxxxx, and second to other persons to whom the Company delivers a Prospectus (as hereinafter defined). The Community Offering, which together with the Subscription Offering, as each may be extended or reopened from time to time, are herein referred to as the “Subscription and Community Offering,” may be commenced concurrently with, during or after, the Subscription Offering. It is currently anticipated by the Bank and the Company that any Securities not subscribed for in the Subscription and Community Offering will be offered, subject to Section 2 hereof, in a syndicated community offering (the “Syndicated Community Offering”). The Subscription and Community Offering and the Syndicated Community Offering are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Offerings.” The Securities may be offered to the general public in a public offering (the “Public Offering”) in lieu of or subsequent to the Syndicated Community Offering. If there is a Public Offering, the Public Offering will be governed by a separate definitive purchase agreement as described in Section 2 hereof. It is acknowledged that the number of Securities to be sold in the Offerings may be increased or decreased as described in the Prospectus. If the number of Securities is increased or decreased in accordance with the Plan, the term “Securities” shall mean such greater or lesser number, where applicable.

In addition to the issuance of Securities in the Offerings, at the Closing Time referred to in Section 2 hereof, the Company intends to issue 53% of the total amount of Common Stock outstanding after the Offerings to the MHC (the “MHC Shares”) in exchange for the shares of Common Stock currently held by the MHC, which existing shares shall be cancelled.

The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement on Form SB-2 (No. 333-141380), including a related prospectus, for the registration of the Securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), has filed such amendments thereto, if any, and such amended prospectus as may have been required to the date hereof by the Commission in order to declare such registration statement effective, and will file such additional amendments thereto and such amended prospectuses and prospectus supplements as may hereafter be required. Such registration statement (as amended to date, if applicable, and as from time to time amended or supplemented hereafter) and the prospectus constituting a part thereof (including in each case all documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein and the information, if any, deemed to be a part thereof pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Commission under the Securities Act, as from time to time amended or supplemented pursuant to the Securities Act or otherwise (the “Securities Act Regulations”)), are hereinafter referred to as the “Registration Statement” and the “Prospectus,” respectively, except that if any revised prospectus shall be used by the Company in connection with the Subscription and Community Offering or the Syndicated Community Offering which differs from the Prospectus on file at the Commission at the time the Registration Statement becomes effective (whether or not such revised prospectus is required to be filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act Regulations), the term “Prospectus” shall refer to such revised prospectus from and after the time it is first provided to the Agent for such use.

Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the Company is delivering to the Agent copies of the Prospectus of the Company to be used in the Offerings. Such Prospectus contains information with respect to the Bank, the Company, the MHC and the Common Stock.

SECTION 1. Representations and Warranties.

(a) The Company, the Bank and the MHC jointly and severally represent and warrant to the Agent as of the date hereof as follows:

(i) The Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission, no stop order has been issued with respect thereto and no proceedings therefor have been initiated or, to the knowledge of the Company, the MHC and the Bank, threatened by the Commission. At the time the Registration Statement became effective and at the Closing Time referred to in Section 2 hereof, the Registration Statement complied and will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Securities Act Regulations and did not and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. The Prospectus at the date hereof does not and at the Closing Time referred to in Section 2 hereof will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the representations and warranties in this subsection shall not apply to statements in or omissions from the Registration Statement or Prospectus made in reliance upon and in conformity with information with respect to the Agent furnished to the Company in writing by the Agent expressly for use in the Registration Statement or Prospectus (the “Agent Information,” which the Company, the MHC and the Bank acknowledge appears only in the second sentence under “Summary—Market for the Shares of Common Stock,” the fourth sentence under “Market for the Common Stock” and the sixth paragraph of the section “The Stock Offering-Marketing Arrangements.”

(ii) At the time of filing the Registration Statement relating to the offering of the Securities and at the date hereof, the Company was not, and is not, an ineligible issuer, as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act Regulations. At the time of the filing of the Registration Statement and at the time of the use of any issuer free writing prospectus, as defined in Rule 433(h) of the Securities Act Regulations, the Company met the conditions required by Rules 164 and 433 of the Securities Act Regulations for the use of a free writing prospectus. If required to be filed, the Company has filed any issuer free writing prospectus related to the offered Securities at the time it is required to be filed under Rule 433 of the Securities Act Regulations and, if not required to be filed, will retain such free writing prospectus in the Company’s records pursuant to Rule 433(g) of the Securities Act Regulations and if any issuer free writing prospectus is used after the date hereof in connection with the offering of the Securities the Company will file or retain such free writing prospectus as required by Rule 433 of the Securities Act Regulations.

(iii) As of the Applicable Time, neither (i) the Issuer-Represented General Free Writing Prospectus(es) issued at or prior to the Applicable Time and the Statutory

Prospectus, all considered together (collectively, the “General Disclosure Package”), nor (ii) any individual Issuer-Represented Limited-Use Free Writing Prospectus, when considered together with the General Disclosure Package, included any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The preceding sentence does not apply to statements in or omissions from any Prospectus included in the Registration Statement relating to the offered Securities or any Issuer-Represented Free Writing Prospectus based upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Agent specifically for use therein. As used in this paragraph and elsewhere in this Agreement:

1. “Applicable Time” means each and every date when a potential purchaser submitted a subscription or otherwise committed to purchase Securities.

2. “Statutory Prospectus”, as of any time, means the Prospectus relating to the offered Securities that is included in the Registration Statement relating to the offered Securities immediately prior to the Applicable Time, including any document incorporated by reference therein.

3. “Issuer-Represented Free Writing Prospectus” means any “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 433(h) of the Securities Act Regulations, relating to the offered Securities in the form filed or required or, if not required to be filed, in the form retained in the Company’s records pursuant to Rule 433(g) under the Securities Act Regulations. The term does not include any writing exempted from the definition of prospectus pursuant to clause (a) of Section 2(a)(10) of the 1933 Act, without regard to Rule 172 or Rule 173 of the Securities Act Regulations.

4. “Issuer-Represented General Free Writing Prospectus” means any Issuer-Represented Free Writing Prospectus that is intended for general distribution to prospective investors.

5. “Issuer-Represented Limited-Use Free Writing Prospectus” means any Issuer-Represented Free Writing Prospectus that is not an Issuer-Represented General Free Writing Prospectus. The term Issuer-Represented Limited-Use Free Writing Prospectus also includes any “bona fide electronic road show,” as defined in Rule 433 of the Securities Act Regulations, that is made available without restriction pursuant to Rule 433(d)(8)(ii) of the Securities Act Regulations or otherwise, even though not required to be filed with the Commission.

(iv) Each Issuer-Represented Free Writing Prospectus, as of its date of first use and at all subsequent times through the completion of the Offerings and sale of the offered Securities or until any earlier date that the Company notified or notifies the Agent (as

described in the next sentence), did not, does not and will not include any information that conflicted, conflicts or will conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement, including any document incorporated by reference therein that has not been superseded or modified. If at any time following the date of first use of an Issuer-Represented Free Writing Prospectus there occurred or occurs an event or development as a result of which such Issuer-Represented Free Writing Prospectus conflicted or would conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement relating to the offered Securities or included or would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or would omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances prevailing at that subsequent time, not misleading, the Company has notified or will notify promptly the Agent so that any use of such Issuer-Represented Free-Writing Prospectus may cease until it is amended or supplemented and the Company has promptly amended or will promptly amend or supplement such Issuer-Represented Free Writing Prospectus to eliminate or correct such conflict, untrue statement or omission. The foregoing two sentences do not apply to statements in or omissions from any Issuer-Represented Free Writing Prospectus based upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Agent specifically for use therein.

(v) Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the OTS, as from time to time amended or supplemented (the “OTS Regulations”), the Company filed with the OTS an Application for Approval of a Minority Stock Issuance by a Savings Association Subsidiary of a Mutual Holding Company on Form MHC-2, which includes the Prospectus and the Plan, and has filed such amendments thereto and supplementary materials as may have been required to the date hereof (such application, as amended to date, if applicable, and as from time to time amended or supplemented hereafter, is referred to as the “MHC Application”). The Plan has been duly adopted by the Boards of Directors of the Bank, the Company and the MHC and such adoption has not since been rescinded or revoked. The MHC Application, including the Plan, has been approved by the OTS. The Prospectus has been approved for use by the OTS, such approval remains in full force and effect and no order has been issued by the OTS suspending or revoking such approval and no proceedings therefor have been initiated or, to the knowledge of the Company, the MHC or the Bank, threatened by the OTS. At the date of such approval and at the Closing Time referred to in Section 2, the MHC Application complied and will comply in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the OTS Regulations. No approval of any other regulatory or supervisory or other public authority is required in connection with the implementation of the Plan that has not been obtained and a copy of which has not been delivered to the Agent.

SECTION 2. Appointment of Sandler X’Xxxxx; Sale and Delivery of the Securities; Closing. On the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Company hereby appoints Sandler X’Xxxxx as its Agent to consult with and advise the Company, and to assist the Company with the solicitation of subscriptions and purchase orders for Securities, in connection with the Company’s sale of Common Stock in the Offerings. On the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained, and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, Sandler X’Xxxxx accepts such appointment and agrees to use its best efforts to assist the Company with the solicitation of subscriptions and purchase orders for Securities in accordance with this Agreement; provided, however, that the Agent shall not be obligated to take any action which is inconsistent with any applicable laws, regulations, decisions or orders. The services to be rendered by Sandler X’Xxxxx pursuant to this appointment include the following: (i) consulting as to the securities market implications of any aspect of the Plan or related corporate documents; (ii) reviewing with the Board of

Directors of the Company, the MHC and the Bank, the financial impact on the Company of the Appraiser’s appraisal of the Common Stock; (iii) reviewing all offering documents, including the Prospectus, stock order forms and related offering materials (it being understood that preparation and filing of such documents is the sole responsibility of the Company and the Bank and their counsel); (iv) assisting in the design and implementation of a marketing strategy for the Offerings; (v) if necessary, assisting management of the Company and the Bank in preparing for meetings with potential investors and broker-dealers; and (vi) providing such other general advice and assistance as may be requested to promote the successful completion of the Offerings.

The appointment of the Agent hereunder shall terminate upon the earlier to occur of (a) forty-five (45) days after the last day of the Subscription and Community Offering, unless the Company and the Agent agree in writing to extend such period and the OTS agrees to extend the period of time in which the Securities may be sold, or (b) the receipt and acceptance of subscriptions and purchase orders for all of the Securities, or (c) the completion of the Syndicated Community Offering.

If any of the Securities remain available after the expiration of the Subscription and Community Offering, at the request of the Company and the Bank, Sandler X’Xxxxx will seek to form a syndicate of registered brokers or dealers (“Selected Dealers”) to assist in the solicitation of purchase orders of such Securities on a best efforts basis. Sandler X’Xxxxx will endeavor to limit the aggregate fees to be paid by the Company, the MHC and the Bank to an amount competitive with gross underwriting discounts charged at such time for underwritings of comparable amounts of stock sold at a comparable price per share in a similar market environment; provided, however, that the aggregate fees payable to Selected Dealers shall not exceed 5.5% of the aggregate dollar amount of the Securities sold in the Syndicated Community Offering by such Selected Dealers. Sandler X’Xxxxx will endeavor to distribute the Securities among the Selected Dealers in a fashion which best meets the distribution objectives of the Company and the Bank, which may result in limiting the allocation of stock to certain Selected Dealers. It is understood that in no event shall Sandler X’Xxxxx be obligated to act as a Selected Dealer or to take or purchase any Securities.

If any of the Securities remain available after the expiration of the Offerings, the Company agrees to offer the Agent the first right to act as lead managing underwriter for the Public Offering. The terms of the Public Offering will be set forth in a separate definitive purchase agreement in a form satisfactory to Sandler X’Xxxxx and containing customary representations, warranties, conditions, agreements and indemnities, which purchase agreement, when executed, will supersede and replace this Agreement with respect to Securities sold thereunder (the “Purchase Agreement”). This Agreement is not intended to constitute, and should not be construed as, an agreement or commitment between the MHC, the Company, the Bank and Sandler X’Xxxxx relating to the firm commitment underwriting of any securities, and Sandler X’Xxxxx may, in its sole judgment and discretion, determine at any time not to proceed with the proposed firm commitment underwriting. Such proposed underwriting will be subject, among other things, to: (i) satisfactory completion by Sandler X’Xxxxx of such due diligence investigation or inquiries as it may deem appropriate, (ii) market conditions, which, in the sole judgment of Sandler X’Xxxxx, shall be satisfactory, and (iii) the execution and delivery of a definitive Purchase Agreement.

In the event the Company is unable to sell at least the total minimum of the Securities, as set forth on the cover page of the Prospectus, within the period herein provided, this Agreement shall terminate and the Company shall refund to any persons who have subscribed for any of the Securities the full amount which it may have received from them, together with interest as provided in the Prospectus, and no party to this Agreement shall have any obligation to the others hereunder, except for the obligations of the Company, the MHC and the Bank as set forth in Sections 4, 6(a) and 7 hereof and the obligations of the Agent as provided in Sections 6(b) and 7 hereof. Appropriate arrangements for placing the funds received from subscriptions for Securities or other offers to purchase Securities in special interest-bearing accounts with the Bank until all Securities are sold and paid for were made prior to the commencement of the Subscription Offering, with provision for refund to the purchasers as set forth above, or for delivery to the Company if all Securities are sold.

If at least the total minimum of Securities, as set forth on the cover page of the Prospectus, are sold, the Company agrees to issue or have issued the Securities sold and to release for delivery certificates for such Securities at the Closing Time against payment therefor by release of funds from the special interest-bearing accounts referred to above. The closing shall be held at the offices of Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxx, P.C., at 10:00 a.m., Eastern Time, or at such other place and time as shall be agreed upon by the parties hereto, on a business day to be agreed upon by the parties hereto. The Company shall notify the Agent by telephone, confirmed in writing, when funds shall have been received for all the Securities. Certificates for Securities shall be delivered directly to the purchasers thereof in accordance with their directions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, certificates for Securities purchased through Selected Dealers shall be made available to the Agent for inspection at least 48 hours prior to the Closing Time at such office as the Agent shall designate. The hour and date upon which the Company shall release for delivery all of the Securities, in accordance with the terms hereof, is herein called the “Closing Time.”

The Company will pay any stock issue and transfer taxes which may be payable with respect to the sale of the Securities.

In addition to the reimbursement of the expenses specified in Section 4 hereof, the Agent will receive the following compensation for its services hereunder:

(a) A fee of $150,000; and

(b) With respect to any Securities sold by a NASD member firm in the Syndicated Community Offering, the compensation payable to Selected Dealers. The fees payable to Sandler X’Xxxxx and other NASD member firms for Securities sold by them in the Syndicated Community Offering shall be limited to an aggregate of five and one-half percent (5.5%) of the aggregate dollar amount of the Securities sold by them.

If this Agreement is terminated by the Agent in accordance with the provisions of Section 9(a) hereof, no fee shall be payable by the Company to Sandler X’Xxxxx; provided, however, that the Company shall reimburse the Agent for all of its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred prior to termination, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Agent in accordance with the provisions of Section 4 hereof. In addition, the Company shall be obligated to pay the fees and expenses as contemplated by the provisions of Section 4 hereof in the event of any such termination.

All fees payable to the Agent hereunder shall be payable in immediately available funds at Closing Time, or upon the termination of this Agreement, as the case may be. In recognition of the long lead times involved in the reorganization offering process, the Bank agrees to make an advance payment to the Agent in the aggregate amount of $25,000 which has been previously paid. Such advance payment shall be credited against any fees or reimbursement of expenses payable hereunder and any unearned portion thereof shall be refunded. If the Agent's fees and expenses do not equal or exceed $25,000, any unused portion of the advance payment shall be returned to the Company.

SECTION 3. Covenants of the Company, the MHC and the Bank. The Company, the MHC and the Bank covenant with the Agent as follows:

(a) The Company, the MHC and the Bank will prepare and file such amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, the Holding Company Application, the MHC Application and the Proxy Statement as may hereafter be required by the Securities Act Regulations or the OTS Regulations or as may hereafter be requested by the Agent.

Any such free writing prospectus consented to by the Company and the Agent is hereinafter referred to as a “Permitted Free Writing Prospectus.” The Company represents that it has and will comply with the requirements of Rule 433 of the Securities Act Regulations applicable to any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, including timely Commission filing where required, legending and record keeping.

The Company represents that it will satisfy the conditions in Rule 433 to avoid a requirement to file with the Commission an electronic road show. The Company, the MHC and the Bank will give the Agent notice of its intention to file or prepare any amendment to the OTS Applications or Registration Statement (including any post-effective amendment) or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus (including any revised prospectus which the Company proposes for use in connection with the Syndicated Community Offering of the Securities which differs from the prospectus on file at the Commission at the time the Registration Statement becomes effective, whether or not such revised prospectus is required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act Regulations), will furnish the Agent with copies of any such amendment or supplement a reasonable amount of time prior to such proposed filing or use, as the case may be, and will not file any such amendment or supplement or use any such prospectus to which the Agent or counsel for the Agent may object.

(c) The Company, the MHC and the Bank will deliver to the Agent as many signed copies and as many conformed copies of the MHC Application and the Registration Statement as originally filed and of each amendment thereto (including exhibits filed therewith or incorporated by reference therein) as the Agent may reasonably request, and from time to time such number of copies of the Prospectus as the Agent may reasonably request.

(e) If any event or circumstance shall occur as a result of which it is necessary, in the opinion of counsel for the Agent, to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or Prospectus in order to make the Prospectus not misleading in the light of the circumstances existing at the time it is delivered to a purchaser, the Company, the MHC and the Bank will forthwith amend or supplement the Registration Statement or Prospectus (in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the Agent) so that, as so amended or supplemented, the Registration Statement or Prospectus will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing at the time it is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, and the Company, the MHC and the Bank will furnish to the Agent a reasonable number of copies of such amendment or supplement.
