Employee Benefits | 8. Employee Benefits Pension Plan The Bank maintains a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all of its employees 21 years of age or older who had completed at least one year of service as of June 30, 2012, the effective date on which the Board of Directors of the Bank voted to freeze the defined benefit plan. The following table sets forth the plan’s funded status and amounts recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of financial condition: ​

Net periodic cost (benefit) | ​ | $ | 76 | ​ | $ | (27)
​ The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets has been determined by applying historical average investment returns from published indexes relating to the current allocation of assets in the plan. Plan assets are invested in pooled separate accounts consisting of underlying investments in nine diversified investment funds. As of March 31, 2023, the investment funds included seven equity funds and two fixed income bond funds, each with its own investment objectives, investment strategies and risks, as detailed in the Company’s investment policy statement. The Company determines the appropriate strategic asset allocation versus plan liabilities, as governed by the investment policy statement. The assets of the plan are invested under the supervision of the Company’s investment committee in accordance with the investment policy statement. The investment options of the plan are chosen in a manner consistent with generally accepted standards of fiduciary responsibility. The investment performance of the Company’s individual investment managers, with the assistance of the Company’s investment consultant, is monitored on a quarterly basis and is reviewed at least annually relative to the objectives and guidelines as stated in the Company’s investment policy statement. The Company did not make a contribution to the plan in the first three months of 2023 or 2022. The fair value of the Company’s pension plan assets, by fair value hierarchy, are as follows: ​

​ The pooled separate accounts are valued at the net asset per unit based on either the observable net asset value of the underlying investment or the net asset value of the underlying pool of securities. Net asset value is based on the value of the underlying assets owned by the fund, minus its liabilities and then divided by the number of shares outstanding. For a detailed disclosure on the Bank’s pension and employee benefits plans, please refer to Note 10 of the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. Defined Contribution Plan The Bank sponsors a 401(k) defined contribution plan. Participants are permitted, in accordance with the provisions of Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, to contribute up to 25% of their earnings (as defined) into the plan with the Bank matching up to 6%, subject to Internal Revenue Service limitations. The Bank’s contributions charged to operations amounted to $286 and $294 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Deferred Compensation Arrangements Directors’ Plan, (formerly the “Trustees Plan”) The Bank’s Deferred Compensation Plan for Fees of Directors, as amended and restated effective January 1, 2005 (the “Directors’ Plan”), covers directors who elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of their fees until separation from service. Upon resignation, retirement, or death, the participant’s total deferred compensation, including earnings thereon, will be paid out. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, total amounts due to participants of $2,873 and $2,761, respectively, were included in accrued expenses and other liabilities. Total expenses related to the Directors’ Plan were $51 and $56 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, which were included in other non-interest expense in the consolidated statements of income. Executive Long-Term Incentive and Retention Plan The Bank maintains an Executive Long-Term Incentive and Retention Plan (the “Executive Plan”). Participation in the Executive Plan is limited to officers of the Company designated as participants by the Board of Directors and who filed a properly completed and executed participation agreement in accordance with the terms of the Executive Plan. Under the Executive Plan, the Board of Directors may grant annual incentive awards equal to a percentage of a participant’s base salary at the rate in effect on the last day of the Executive Plan year, as determined by the Board of Directors based on the attainment of criteria established annually by the Board of Directors. Incentive awards under the Executive Plan are credited to the participant’s incentive benefit account as of the last day of the Executive Plan year to which the award relates and earn interest at a rate determined annually by the Board of Directors. Participants vest in their benefit accounts in accordance with the vesting schedule approved by the Board of Directors, which ranges from one to five years of service. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $1,861 and $1,649, respectively, was included in accrued expenses and other liabilities, which represents the cumulative amounts deferred and earnings thereon. The Company recognized expenses of $131 and $197 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, related to this plan and which are included in salaries and employee benefits expense in the consolidated statements of income.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan On January 1, 2019, the Bank established an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) to provide Company stock to eligible employees. The plan is a tax-qualified retirement plan for the benefit of Bank employees. On January 16, 2019, the Company granted a loan to the ESOP for the purchase of 436,425 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $10.00 per share. The loan obtained by the ESOP from the Company is payable annually over 20 years at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate, reset annually on January 1st (7.50% at January 1, 2023). Loan payments are funded by cash contributions from the Bank. The loan is secured by the shares purchased, which are held in a suspense account for allocation among participants as the loan is repaid. The balance of the ESOP loan at March 31, 2023 was $3,741. Contributions are allocated to eligible participants on the basis of compensation, subject to federal tax limits. The number of shares committed to be released annually is 21,821 through 2039. Shares held by the ESOP include the following: ​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | March 31, | ​ | December 31,
​ | ​ | 2023 |  | 2022
Allocated | ​ | 87,284 |  | 65,463
Committed to be allocated | ​ | 5,454 |  | 21,821
Unallocated | ​ | 343,687 |  | 349,141
Paid out to participants | ​ | (4,376) | ​ | (4,376)
Total shares | ​ | 432,049 |  | 432,049
​ The fair value of unallocated shares was $2,629 at March 31, 2023. Total compensation expense recognized in connection with the ESOP for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 was $50 and $58, respectively. Share-Based Compensation Plan On May 26, 2020, stockholders of the Company approved the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “EIP”). The EIP authorizes the issuance to participants of up to 763,743 shares of Rhinebeck Bancorp common stock pursuant to grants of incentive and non-qualified stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units. Of this number, the maximum number of shares of Rhinebeck Bancorp common stock that may be issued under the EIP pursuant to the exercise of stock options is 545,531 shares, and the maximum number of shares of Rhinebeck Bancorp common stock that may be issued as restricted stock awards or restricted stock units is 218,212 shares. These amounts represented 4.90% and 1.96%, respectively, of the number of shares of common stock issued in the stock offering of Rhinebeck Bancorp, including the shares issued to Rhinebeck Bancorp, MHC. Pursuant to terms of the EIP, on August 25, 2020, the Board of Directors granted restricted stock and stock options to employees and directors. All of the awards vest annually over a three-year period from the date of the grant and the term of each option is ten years. As of March 31, 2023, there were 102,813 stock options and 49,444 restricted stock awards that remain available for future grants. The fair value of each option granted under the EIP is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Option-Pricing Model. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of a peer group of comparable SEC-reporting bank holding companies. The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s expectation of dividend payouts. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the date of grant. The Company has elected to recognize forfeitures as they occur. ​ ​ A summary of options under the 2020 EIP as of March 31, 2023 is presented below: ​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | Weighted - | ​ | Weighted-Average
​ | ​ | Number of | ​ | Average | ​ | Remaining Contractual

Options exercisable at March 31, 2023 | ​ | 290,126 | ​ | $ | 6.62 | ​ | 7.40
​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ At March 31, 2023, the aggregate intrinsic value of the stock options outstanding, which fluctuates based on changes in the fair market value of the Company’s stock, was $456. The aggregate intrinsic value represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value (i.e., the difference between the Company’s closing stock price on the last trading day of period and the weighted-average exercise price, multiplied by the number of shares) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on March 31, 2023. ​ As of March 31, 2023, there was $101 of unrecognized compensation cost related to the nonvested stock options granted under the 2020 EIP. The cost is expected to be recognized over a remaining period of 0.42 years. The following table summarizes the Company’s restricted stock activity for the three months ended March 31, 2023: ​
