Dear Stockholder:

You are cordially invited to attend the annual meeting of stockholders of Chicopee Bancorp, Inc. The meeting will be held at Storrowton Tavern Carriage House, 1305 Memorial Avenue, West Springfield, Massachusetts, on Wednesday, May 28, 2014, at 1:00 p.m., local time.

The notice of annual meeting and proxy statement appearing on the following pages describe the formal business to be transacted at the meeting. Directors and officers of the Company, as well as a representative of Berry Dunn McNeil & Parker, LLC, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, will be present to respond to appropriate questions of stockholders.

On April 16, 2014, under rules established by the Securities and Exchange Commission, we sent stockholders who are eligible to vote at the annual meeting a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”) containing instructions on how to access our proxy materials, including our proxy statement and annual report for 2013, online, rather than in traditional printed form. The Notice also explains the simple steps our eligible stockholders can follow in order to vote their shares online or by telephone. If you are among the stockholders who received the Notice explaining this process and would prefer to receive your proxy materials in the traditional hard copy format, the Notice also explains how to arrange to have the printed materials sent to you in the mail.

Whether or not you are able to attend the meeting, and regardless of the number of shares you own, your vote is important and we encourage you to vote promptly. You may vote your shares via a toll-free telephone number, over the Internet or on a paper proxy card. Instructions regarding the methods of voting are contained on the Notice and proxy card. Voting by proxy will not prevent you from voting in person at the annual meeting, but will ensure that your vote is counted if you are unable to attend.

We look forward to seeing you at the meeting.

	Sincerely,



	/s/ William J. Wagner

Proxy Statement

General Information

We are providing this proxy statement to you in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors of Chicopee Bancorp, Inc. (“Chicopee Bancorp” or the “Company”) for the 2014 annual meeting of stockholders and for any adjournment or postponement of the meeting. The Company is the holding company for Chicopee Savings Bank (“Chicopee Savings” or the “Bank”). We are holding the annual meeting at the Storrowton Tavern Carriage House, 1305 Memorial Avenue, West Springfield, Massachusetts, on Wednesday, May 28, 2014, at 1:00 p.m., local time.

Information about Voting

Who Can Vote at the Meeting

You are entitled to vote the shares of Chicopee Bancorp common stock that you owned as of the close of business on March 28, 2014. As of the close of business on March 28, 2014, a total of 5,438,085 shares of Chicopee Bancorp common stock were outstanding. Each share of common stock has one vote.

The Company’s Articles of Organization provide that record owners of Company common stock that is beneficially owned by a person who beneficially owns in excess of 10% of the Company’s outstanding common stock (a “10% beneficial owner”), shall not be entitled to vote, in the aggregate, shares beneficially owned by the 10% beneficial owner in excess of 10% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials for the 2014 annual meeting of Stockholders

On April 16, 2014, we began mailing a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”) to all stockholders entitled to vote, which contains instructions on how to access this proxy statement and the annual report for 2013 and how to vote. You may also request that a printed copy of the proxy materials be sent to you. You will not receive a printed copy of the proxy materials unless you request one in the manner set forth in the Notice. The proxy materials are available on the internet at the following website: http://www.cfpproxy.com/6036.

If you hold shares of our common stock through our stock-based benefit plans, you will receive a printed set of the proxy materials and a vote authorization form. Please vote your shares as instructed in the vote authorization form.

Ownership of Shares; Voting Your Shares

You may own shares of Chicopee Bancorp in one of the following ways:

· Directly in your name as the stockholder of record; or

· Indirectly through a broker, bank or other holder of record in “street name.”

If your shares are registered directly in your name, you have the right to give your proxy directly to us (by returning your proxy card or by voting by telephone or the Internet as instructed on the proxy card) or to vote in person at the meeting.

If you hold your shares in street name, you will receive instructions directly from your broker, bank or other holder of record regarding how to vote your shares. Your holder of record may also provide the ability to vote your proxy by telephone or online. If you hold your shares in street name your broker, bank or other holder of record will not vote your shares (other than with respect to the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm) unless you provide instructions to such holder of record on how to vote your shares. You should instruct your broker, bank or other holder of record how to vote your shares by following the directions they provide.

Attending the Meeting; Voting at the Meeting

If you hold your shares directly as the holder of record, you may attend the annual meeting and vote your shares directly. If you hold your shares in street name, we may require that you present proof of ownership of your shares prior to being admitted to the meeting. A recent brokerage statement or letter from your bank or broker are examples of proof of ownership. If you want to vote your shares of Chicopee Bancorp common stock held in street name in person at the meeting, you must obtain a written proxy in your name from the broker, bank or other holder of record of your shares.

Quorum and Vote Required

Quorum. We will have a quorum and will be able to conduct the business of the annual meeting, if the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote are present at the meeting, either in person or by proxy.

Votes Required for Proposals. At this year’s annual meeting, stockholders will elect three directors to serve for a term of three years and until their respective successors have been elected and qualified. In voting on the election of directors, you may vote in favor of the nominees, withhold votes as to all nominees, or withhold votes as to specific nominees. There is no cumulative voting for the election of directors. Directors must be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at the annual meeting. This means that the nominees receiving the greatest number of votes will be elected.

In voting on the ratification of the appointment of Berry Dunn McNeil & Parker, LLC as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, you may vote in favor of the proposal, vote against the proposal or abstain from voting. To ratify the selection of Berry Dunn McNeil & Parker, LLC as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal 2014, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on the proposal is required.

In voting on the advisory, non-binding proposal to approve the executive compensation described in this proxy statement, you may vote in favor of the advisory proposal, vote against the advisory proposal or abstain from voting. Approval of this proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on the proposal. While this vote is required by law, it will neither be binding on the Board of Directors, nor will it create or imply any change in, or addition to, the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors.

Broker Non-Votes. If you do not provide your broker or other record holder with voting instructions on certain non-routine matters (e.g., the election of directors and the advisory vote on executive compensation matters), your broker or other record holder will not have discretion to vote your shares on these matters. A “broker non-vote” occurs when your broker submits a proxy for the meeting with respect to routine matters, but does not vote on non-routine matters because you did not provide voting instructions on these matters. In the case of routine matters (e.g., the ratification of the independent auditors), your broker or other holder of record is permitted to vote your shares in the record holder’s discretion if you have not provided voting instructions.

How We Count Votes. If you return valid proxy instructions, vote by telephone or the Internet or attend the meeting in person, we will count your shares for purposes of determining whether there is a quorum, even if you abstain from voting. Broker non-votes also will be counted for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum.

In the election of directors, votes that are withheld and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the election. In counting votes on the proposal to ratify the selection of the independent registered public accountants, abstentions will have no impact on the outcome of the proposal. In counting votes on the advisory, non-binding proposal to approve the executive compensation described in this proxy statement, abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote.

Voting by Proxy

The Company’s Board of Directors is sending you this proxy statement to request that you allow your shares of Company common stock to be represented at the annual meeting by the persons named in the enclosed proxy card. All shares of Company common stock represented at the meeting by properly executed and dated proxies will be voted according to the instructions indicated on the proxy card or as indicated when you vote by telephone or the Internet. If you sign, date and return a proxy card without giving voting instructions, your shares will be voted as recommended by the Company’s Board of Directors. The Board of Directors recommends that you vote:

•

for each of the nominees for director;

•

for ratification of the appointment of Berry Dunn McNeil & Parker, LLC as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm; and

•

for approval of the advisory, non-binding proposal to approve the executive compensation described in this proxy statement.

If any matters not described in this proxy statement are properly presented at the annual meeting, the persons named in the proxy card will use their judgment to determine how to vote your shares. This includes a motion to adjourn or postpone the meeting to solicit additional proxies. If the annual meeting is postponed or adjourned, your Company common stock may be voted by the persons named in the proxy card on the new meeting date, provided you have not revoked your proxy. The Company does not currently know of any other matters to be presented at the meeting.

You may revoke your proxy at any time before the vote is taken at the meeting. To revoke your proxy, you must advise the Corporate Secretary of the Company in writing before your common stock has been voted at the annual meeting, deliver a later dated proxy, vote on a later date by telephone or the Internet or attend the meeting and vote your shares in person by ballot. Attendance at the annual meeting will not in itself constitute revocation of your proxy.

Participants in the Chicopee Savings Bank ESOP

If you participate in the Chicopee Savings Bank Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the “ESOP”), you will receive a voting instruction card for the plan that reflects all shares you may vote under the plan. Under the terms of the ESOP, the ESOP trustee votes all shares held by the ESOP, but each ESOP participant may direct the trustee how to vote the shares of common stock allocated to the participant’s account. The ESOP trustee, subject to the exercise of its fiduciary responsibilities, will vote all unallocated shares of Company common stock held by the ESOP and allocated shares for which no voting instructions are received in the same proportion as shares for which it has received timely voting instructions. The deadline for returning your voting instructions to the ESOP Trustee is May 21, 2014.

Corporate Governance

Director Independence

The Company’s Board of Directors currently consists of eleven members. All of the directors are independent as defined by the rules of The NASDAQ Stock Market, except for Mr. Wagner, who is the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. In determining director independence, the Board of Directors considered transactions, relationships and arrangements between the Company and its directors, including relationships that are not required to be disclosed in this proxy statement under the heading “Other Information Relating to Directors and Executive Officers—Transactions with Related Persons” including the commercial services provided to the Company by businesses operated by Mr. Bugbee, Mr. Masse and Ms. Tremble. The Board has determined that the amounts paid by the Company for such services were not material.

Board Leadership Structure

The Board of Directors currently combines the position of Chairman of the Board with the position of Chief Executive Officer, coupled with a lead independent director position to further strengthen the Company’s corporate governance structure. Mr. William J. Giokas serves as our lead independent director. The Board of Directors believes this provides an efficient and effective leadership model for the Company. Combining the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer positions fosters clear accountability, effective decision-making, and alignment on corporate strategy. The Board of Directors believes its administration of its risk oversight function is enhanced by the Board’s leadership structure. To assure effective independent oversight, the Board has adopted a number of governance practices, including holding executive sessions of the independent directors after Board meetings, as needed, and the Compensation Committee conducts performance evaluations of the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer.

Risk Oversight

The Board of Directors has an active role, as a whole and at the committee level, in overseeing management of the Company’s risks. The Board of Directors regularly reviews information regarding the Company’s credit, liquidity and operations, as well as the risks associated with each of these matters. The Company’s Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks relating to the Company’s executive compensation plans and arrangements. The Audit Committee oversees management of financial risks. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee manages risks associated with the independence of the Board of Directors and potential conflicts of interest. While each committee is responsible for evaluating certain risks and overseeing the management of such risks, the full Board of Directors is regularly informed about all such risks.

Committees of the Board of Directors

The following table identifies the members of our Audit, Compensation and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees as of March 28, 2014. All members of each committee are independent in accordance with the rules of The NASDAQ Stock Market. Each of the committees operates under a written charter that is approved by the Board of Directors. Each committee reviews and reassesses the adequacy of its charter at least annually. The charters of all three committees are available in the Governance Documents portion of the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website (www.chicopeesavings.com).

Audit Committee. The Audit Committee assists the Board of Directors in its oversight of the Company’s accounting and reporting practices, the quality and integrity of the Company’s financial reports and the Company’s compliance with applicable laws and regulations. The Committee is also responsible for engaging the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and monitoring its conduct and independence. The Board of Directors has designated Gary G. Fitzgerald as an audit committee financial expert under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The report of the Audit Committee required by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission is included in this proxy statement under the heading “Audit Committee Report.”

Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee approves the compensation objectives for the Company and the Bank and establishes the compensation for the Chief Executive Officer and other Named Executive Officers. The Compensation Committee reviews all compensation components including base salary, bonus, benefits and other perquisites. Decisions by the Compensation Committee with respect to the compensation of executive officers are reported to the full Board of Directors. See “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” for more information regarding the role of the Compensation Committee, management and compensation consultants, if any, in determining the amount or form of executive compensation. The report of the Compensation Committee required by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission is included in this proxy statement under the heading “Compensation Committee Report.”

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Company’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee identifies individuals qualified to become Board members, selects nominees for election as directors and develops a set of corporate governance policies and procedures. The procedures of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee required to be disclosed by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission are set forth in the following pages.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Procedures

Qualifications. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has adopted a set of criteria that it considers when it selects individuals to be nominated for election to the Board of Directors. First, a candidate must meet the eligibility requirements set forth in the Company’s bylaws, which include a residency requirement, an age requirement and a requirement that the candidate not have been subject to certain criminal or regulatory actions. A candidate also must meet any qualification requirements for service on the Board of Directors set forth in any Board or committee governing documents.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider the following criteria in selecting nominees for initial election or appointment to the Board: contributions to the range of talent, skill and expertise for the Board; financial, regulatory and business experience and skills; familiarity with and participation in the local community; integrity, honesty and reputation in connection with upholding a position of trust with respect to customers; dedication to the Company and its stockholders; independence; equity holdings; and any other factors the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee deems relevant, including diversity, size of the Board of Directors and regulatory disclosure obligations. We do not maintain a specific diversity policy, but the diversity of the Board is considered in our review of candidates. Diversity includes not only gender, race and ethnicity, but the various perspectives that come from having differing viewpoints, cultural backgrounds, geographic location (within our market area), and life experiences.

In addition, prior to nominating an existing director for re-election to the Board of Directors, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider and review an existing director’s Board and committee meeting attendance and performance; length of Board service; experience, skills and contributions that the existing director brings to the Board; and independence.

Director Nomination Process. The process that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee follows to identify and evaluate individuals to be nominated for election to the Board of Directors is as follows:

Identification. For purposes of identifying nominees for the Board of Directors, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee relies on personal contacts of the committee members and other members of the Board of Directors, as well as its knowledge of members of the communities served by Chicopee Savings Bank. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will also consider director candidates recommended by stockholders in accordance with the policy and procedures set forth below. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has not previously used an independent search firm to identify nominees.

Evaluation. In evaluating potential nominees, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee determines whether the candidate is eligible and qualified for service on the Board of Directors by evaluating the candidate under the selection criteria, set forth above. In addition, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will interview the candidate and conduct a check of the candidate’s background.

Consideration of Recommendations by Stockholders. It is the policy of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company to consider director candidates recommended by stockholders who appear to be qualified to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may choose not to consider an unsolicited recommendation if no vacancy exists on the Board of Directors and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not perceive a need to increase the size of the Board. To avoid the unnecessary use of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s resources, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider only those director candidates recommended in accordance with the procedures set forth below.

Procedures to be Followed by Stockholders. To submit a recommendation of a director candidate to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, a stockholder should submit the following information in writing, addressed to the Chairperson of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, care of the Corporate Secretary, at the main office of the Company:

1.	The name of the person recommended as a director candidate;

2.	All information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934;

3.	The written consent of the person being recommended as a director candidate to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected;

4.	As to the stockholder making the recommendation, the name and address of such stockholder as it appears on the Company’s books; provided, however, that if the stockholder is not a registered holder of the Company’s common stock, the stockholder should submit his or her name and address along with a current written statement from the record holder of the shares that reflects ownership of the Company’s common stock; and

5.	A statement disclosing whether such stockholder is acting with or on behalf of any other person and, if applicable, the identity of such person.

In order for a director candidate to be considered for nomination at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders (regardless of whether the stockholder recommending the nomination seeks to have the nominee included in the Company’s proxy statement), the recommendation must be received by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee at least 120 calendar days before the date the Company’s proxy statement was released to stockholders in connection with the previous year’s annual meeting, advanced by one year.

Meetings of the Board of Directors

The Company conducts business through meetings of its Board of Directors and through activities of its committees. During 2013, the Board of Directors of the Company held eight meetings and the Board of Directors of the Bank held nine meetings. Each current director attended at least 75% of the aggregate of the total number of Board meetings held and the total number of meetings held by committees on which such director served during 2013.

Attendance at the Annual Meeting

The Board of Directors encourages each director to attend annual meetings of stockholders. All eleven members of the Board of Directors attended the 2013 annual meeting of stockholders.

Code of Ethics and Business Conduct

Chicopee Bancorp has adopted a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct (the “Code of Ethics”) that is designed to ensure that directors and employees meet the highest standards of ethical conduct. The Code of Ethics, which applies to all employees and directors, addresses conflicts of interest, the treatment of confidential information, general employee conduct and compliance with applicable laws and regulations. In addition, the Code of Ethics is designed to deter wrongdoing, avoid the appearance of conflicts of interest and promote honest and ethical conduct, full and accurate disclosure and compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.

Audit Committee Report

The Company’s management is responsible for the preparation, presentation and integrity of the Company’s financial statements, for its accounting and financial reporting principles and for the establishment and effectiveness of internal controls and procedures designed to assure compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations. The independent registered accounting firm is responsible for performing an independent audit of the Company’s financial statements and of its internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the standards of the United States Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”) and expressing an opinion as to the conformity of the Company’s financial statements with generally accepted accounting principles and the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting. The Audit Committee oversees the Company’s internal controls and financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Directors.

In this context, the Audit Committee has met and held discussions with management and the independent registered public accounting firm. Management represented to the Audit Committee that the Company’s consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the consolidated financial statements with management and the independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm matters required to be discussed by Auditing Standard No. 16 as adopted by the PCAOB, including the quality, not just the acceptability, of the accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments and the clarity of the disclosures in the financial statements.

In addition, the Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent registered public accounting firm’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence. In concluding that the registered public accounting firm is independent, the Audit Committee considered, among other factors, whether the non-audit services provided by the firm were compatible with its independence.

The Audit Committee discussed with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm the overall scope and plans for its audit. The Audit Committee meets with the independent registered public accounting firm, with and without management present, to discuss the results of its examination, its evaluation of the Company’s internal controls, and the overall quality of the Company’s financial reporting.

In performing all of these functions, the Audit Committee acts only in an oversight capacity. In its oversight role, the Audit Committee relies on the work and assurances of the Company’s management, which has the primary responsibility for financial statements and reports, and of the independent registered public accounting firm that, in its report, expresses an opinion on the conformity of the Company’s financial statements to generally accepted accounting principles. The Audit Committee’s oversight does not provide it with an independent basis to determine that management has maintained appropriate accounting and financial reporting principles or policies, or appropriate internal controls and procedures designed to assure compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations. Furthermore, the Audit Committee’s considerations and discussions with management and the independent registered public accounting firm do not assure that the Company’s financial statements are presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, that the audit of the Company’s financial statements has been carried out in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards or that the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is in fact “independent.”

In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors, and the Board has approved, that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Audit Committee also has approved, subject to stockholder ratification, the selection of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014.

Cash Retainers and Fees for Non-Employee Directors. Each non-employee director of Chicopee Bancorp receives a $3,000 annual retainer. In 2013, members of the Audit Committee received an additional $6,500 annual retainer. In December 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors voted to increase the Audit Committee’s compensation from $6,500 to $13,000, to be paid quarterly, effective January 1, 2014. The decision was based on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, upon their review of a director compensation study which revealed a disparity in the compensation level paid to our Audit Committee members.

Each non-employee director of the Bank receives $450 per meeting of the Bank’s Board of Directors attended. In addition, each member of the Executive Committee receives a $13,000 annual retainer, paid quarterly, while members of other committees of the Boards of Directors of Chicopee Bancorp and the Bank receive $300 per meeting attended. Director Giokas receives $400 per Board meeting of the Bank attended, in addition to the fees paid to directors, for service as Clerk of the Bank. In addition, director Giokas receives an annual retainer of $4,000 as the Lead Director of Chicopee Bancorp. (See “Director Compensation” under Compensation Discussion and Analysis for further information.)

Director Emeritus Program. Chicopee Bancorp maintains a director emeritus program for retired directors. A director emeritus must represent and promote the interests of Chicopee Bancorp and its affiliates and refrain from business that competes with the business of Chicopee Bancorp and its affiliates. Under the program, all duly elected directors of Chicopee Bancorp who have served at least nine years as a director of Chicopee Savings Bank or Chicopee Bancorp are eligible to be appointed as a director emeritus. The current directors emeriti are Arthur DuBois, Louis Dupuis, Edward Fitzgerald, Francine Jasinski Hayward, Edmund Mekal, John Moylan, W. Guy Ormsby, Barry Soden and Edwin Sowa.

The following table provides information with respect to persons known by the Company to be the beneficial owners of more than 5% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

Proposal 1 — Election of Directors

Pre-Approval of Services by the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Audit Committee is responsible for appointing, setting compensation and overseeing the work of the independent registered public accounting firm. In accordance with its charter, the Audit Committee approves, in advance, all audit and permissible non-audit services to be performed by the independent registered public accounting firm. Such approval process ensures that the external auditor does not provide any non-audit services to the Company that are prohibited by law or regulation.

In addition, the Audit Committee has established a policy regarding pre-approval of all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm. Requests for services by the independent registered public accounting firm for compliance with the auditor services policy must be specific as to the particular services to be provided. The request may be made with respect to either specific services or a type of service for predictable or recurring services. During the year ended December 31, 2013, all services were approved, in advance, by the Audit Committee in compliance with these procedures.

Proposal 3 — Advisory Vote On Executive Compensation

The compensation of our Named Executive Officers listed in the Summary Compensation Table under the heading “Executive Compensation,” is described below under the headings “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” and “Executive Compensation.” Stockholders are urged to read these sections of this proxy statement.

In accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, we are required to hold the following votes with respect to the compensation of our Named Executive Officers: (i) an advisory, non-binding vote to approve the compensation of our Named Executive Officers described in this proxy statement, commonly referred to as a “Say on Pay Vote”; and (ii), at least once every six years, an advisory, non-binding vote on the frequency of the Say on Pay Vote in the future (the “Frequency Vote”). In light of the vote of the stockholders at our 2011 annual meeting of stockholders with respect to the Frequency Vote, we determined to include the Say on Pay Vote in our proxy materials for each annual meeting of stockholders until the next Frequency Vote, which will occur no later than our 2017 annual meeting of stockholders. Accordingly, at the 2014 annual meeting of stockholders, stockholders will be asked to provide their support with respect to the compensation of our Named Executive Officers by voting on the following advisory, non-binding resolution (the Say on Pay Vote):

RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the company’s Named Executive Officers, as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables and narrative discussion, is hereby APPROVED.

This advisory vote is non-binding on the Board of Directors. Although non-binding, the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee value constructive dialogue on executive compensation and other important governance topics with our stockholders and encourages all stockholders to vote their shares on this matter. The Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee will review the results of the vote and take them into consideration when making future decisions regarding our executive compensation programs.

Unless otherwise instructed, validly executed proxies will be voted “FOR” this resolution.

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” the resolution set forth in Proposal Three.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Executive Summary

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis is focused specifically on the compensation of Chicopee Bancorp, Inc., executive officers, each of whom is named in the Summary Compensation Table for the year ending December 31, 2013, following this Compensation Discussion and Analysis. The three executive officers are referred to in this Compensation Discussion and Analysis as “Named Executive Officers” and are listed here:

Name	Title
William J. Wagner	President and Chief Executive Officer
Russell J. Omer	Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer
Guida R. Sajdak	Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer

Through the continuous challenging economic conditions, the Company remains committed to following long-term strategies and controlling risks that result in increased value for our stockholders. During 2013, the Company delivered the following positive financial results:

·	Continued strong results by increasing net income by $88,000 to $2.6 million, or $0.51 basic earnings per share, for the 12 months ended December 31, 2013.

·	Continued to build long-term franchise value by increasing the Company’s tangible book value per share by $0.40, or 2.4%, and increasing stockholders’ returns. We continued with growth in both loans and core deposits, the cornerstones for enhancing the franchise value of the Company. Core deposits increased $3.8 million, or 1.3%, and the total net loans at December 31, 2013, increased $20.4 million, or 4.4%.

·	Continued our expense reduction initiatives and strategies to improve the Company’s efficiency. The efficiency ratio improved to 83.20% for the 12 months ended December 31, 2013.

Our Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

Our compensation philosophy and objectives begin with the premise that the success of the Company depends, in large part, on the dedication and commitment of the people we place in key operating positions and on the compensation program we provide such persons to complement our business strategy and other corporate objectives. The purpose of our compensation program is to maximize stockholder value through the recruitment, retention and motivation of talented employees and officers (including Named Executive Officers, as defined above) of Chicopee Bancorp. We recognize that the Company operates in a competitive environment for talent. Therefore, our approach to compensation considers the full range of compensation elements that enable us to compare favorably with our peers as we seek to attract and retain key personnel. We assess our program annually from a risk perspective and seek to use the best practices in the industry.

Our compensation program is based on the following four basic principles:

·	Align with Stockholder Interest – As a public company, we use equity compensation as a key component of our compensation program to develop a culture of ownership among our key executives and to align their individual financial interests with the interests of our stockholders.

·	Drive Performance – We structure compensation, in part, on the attainment of company-wide objectives and individual performance objectives that contribute to our growth within a prudent risk tolerance. It is our belief that loan and deposit growth are critical to achieving future profitability. Therefore, company-wide and individual objectives are weighted toward growth and credit quality.

·	Meet Employment Competitiveness – Our goal is to compensate our employees at competitive levels that position us as the employer of choice among our peers who provide similar financial services in the communities we serve.

·	Reflect Our Business Philosophy – Our approach to compensation reflects our values and the way we do business in the communities we serve.

Designing our Compensation Program

Our compensation program is designed to reward the Named Executive Officers based on their experience, management responsibilities and performance levels. The creation of long-term stockholder value is highly dependent on the development and effective execution of a sound business strategy by our Named Executive Officers. Other considerations influencing the design of our executive compensation program are:

·	experience in the financial services industry that promotes the safe and sound operation of Chicopee Bancorp and achievement of sound risk management;
·	sufficient experience in our markets relating to the needs of our customers, products and services;
·	individual performance and contribution in helping our team achieve our corporate goals, some of which are subjective in nature;
·	retention and development of incumbent executives who meet or exceed performance objectives; and
·	the compensation and employment practices of Chicopee Bancorp’s competitors in the marketplace.

Role of the Compensation Committee and Certain Executive Officers

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors is composed of three independent members of the Board and operates under a written charter. The Chicopee Bancorp, Inc., Compensation Committee charter establishes a framework for the fulfillment of the Compensation Committee’s responsibilities. Under the charter, the Compensation Committee is responsible for setting the compensation philosophy, overseeing the compensation and benefit programs and making recommendations to the full Board of Directors with respect to our compensation program related to the Named Executive Officers. The Compensation Committee reviews the charter at least annually to ensure that the scope of the charter is consistent with the Board of Director’s expectation of the role of the Compensation Committee.

The Board relies on the Compensation Committee to develop our executive compensation program and to monitor the success of the program in achieving the objectives of our compensation philosophy. The Compensation Committee is also responsible for the administration of our compensation programs and policies, including setting the overall level of base salary, incentives, benefits and contractual total compensation for our officers. The Compensation Committee reviews the risks associated with our compensation policies and practices. The compensation of our Chief Executive Officer and the other Named Executive Officers is determined by the Compensation Committee.

The executive officers who serve as a resource to the Compensation Committee are the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Senior Vice President of Human Resources. These executives attend the Compensation Committee meetings at the invitation of the Compensation Committee. Our Chief Executive Officer and our Senior Vice President of Human Resources make recommendations from time to time regarding the appropriate mix and level of compensation for their subordinates. Those recommendations consider the objectives and elements of our compensation philosophy and the range of compensation programs authorized by the Compensation Committee. The two executives participate in Compensation Committee activities purely in an informational and advisory capacity and have no vote in the Compensation Committee’s decision-making process. The President and Chief Executive Officer and the Senior Vice President of Human Resources do not attend the portion of the Compensation Committee meetings during which their own performance is evaluated or their compensation is being determined.

Role of Compensation Consultants

The Compensation Committee engages an independent compensation consulting firm to assist in the compensation governance process for the Named Executive Officers and other officers. The consultant is retained by and reports to the Compensation Committee. In developing compensation and incentive plans for the Named Executive Officers, the Compensation Committee utilized the services of Arthur Warren Associates.

In 2013, Arthur Warren Associates reviewed the elements of executive compensation to determine, among other tasks, whether any portion of executive compensation encouraged excessive risk taking. The Compensation Committee met with the compensation consultant several times throughout the year to evaluate the trends within the industry and the consultant’s observations, analysis and recommendations. The Compensation Committee believes that any risks arising from our compensation policies and practices for our employees are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. In addition, the Compensation Committee believes that the pay mix and design of the elements of our executive compensation does not encourage management to assume excessive risks. The Compensation Committee concluded that weighting the pay mix towards long-term equity incentive compensation discourages inappropriate short-term risk taking. Total fees paid during the year 2013 for services performed by Arthur Warren Associates were $25,219.

A critical element of our compensation philosophy and a key driver of specific compensation decisions for our Compensation Committee and our management team is the comparative analysis of all of the Company’s employee compensation mix and levels relative to a peer group of publicly traded banks and mutual banks. We firmly believe that the cornerstone of our compensation program is the maintenance of competitive pay elements relative to the companies with whom we compete for talent. In 2013, our employee peer group was selected with the assistance of our compensation consultant on the basis of several factors, including geographic location, asset size, operating characteristics and financial performance. The Compensation Committee evaluates our compensation program relative to our peers to ensure that our program is consistent with best practices in our industry. The peer group consists of 16 publicly traded banks within New England having assets ranging between $406 million and $ 1.9 billion. The banks included in the peer analysis are Bankwell Financial Group, Bar Harbor Bankshares, BSB Bancorp, Inc., Community Bancorp, Enterprise Bancorp, Farmington Bancorp, Hampden Bancorp, Hingham Institution for Savings, New Hampshire Thrift Bancshares, PSB Holdings, Salisbury Bancorp, SBT Bancorp, SI Financial Group, The First Bancorp, Union Bankshares and Westfield Financial, Inc. The Compensation Committee also evaluated published compensation survey data and other relevant information provided in the 2013 Pearl Meyer & Partners Northeast Bankers Survey. Annually, we participate in a compensation survey with Pearl Meyer & Partners located in Southborough, Massachusetts. This survey includes 103 banks and financial institutions with operations primarily in Massachusetts, details 98 officer positions and 87 non-officer positions and includes over 13,800 incumbents. All data was effective as of April 1, 2013, with bonus and short-term (annual) incentive plan payouts based on the 2012 calendar year and paid in 2013. The survey consisted of five asset-size groupings and also provided current compensation trends and observations within the market for compensation policies and practices. The Company’s asset size was within the $400 million up to $600 million group. Within that group, 24 institutions reported having median total assets of $505 million. Of that total, 8% of the banks reporting were publicly traded stock banks, 13% were privately (closely) held stock banks and 79% were mutual banks. Compensation data for officer positions was reported by asset size as well as mutual vs. stock form of ownership and detailed short-term and long-term incentive data. The Company was able to compare compensation for its Named Executive Officers to those within our asset size as well as other asset size groupings.

When evaluating compensation for our officers, in addition to considering the relevance of the data provided in the peer group proxies and the compensation surveys, the following is also considered:

·	our business need for certain officer level skills;

·	the contributions an officer has made or we believe will make to our success; and

·	the transferability of an officer’s managerial skills to other potential employers.

Elements of Compensation

Our compensation program currently relies on four primary elements: (i) base compensation or salary; (ii) discretionary cash-based, short-term incentive compensation for certain employees not including the Named Executive Officers; (iii) discretionary long-term performance incentives in the form of stock-based compensation and long -term incentive compensation; and (iv) employee benefits to provide for appropriate and meaningful income replacement in the event of retirement, sickness, accident, death or disability. We believe we can meet the objectives of our compensation philosophy by achieving a balance among these four elements that is competitive with our industry peers and creates appropriate incentives for our management team.

Base Compensation. The base salaries of our Named Executive Officers are reviewed at least annually to assess our competitive position and make any necessary adjustments. Our goal is to maintain salary levels for our Named Executive Officers at a level consistent with base pay received by those in comparable positions at our peers. To further that goal, we obtain peer group information from a variety of sources including an independent compensation consultant. We also evaluate salary levels at the time of promotion or other change in responsibilities or as a result of specific commitments we made when a specific officer was hired. Individual performance and retention risk are also considered as part of our annual assessment. See “Executive Compensation – Summary Compensation Table” for the salaries paid to our Named Executive Officers in 2013.

Annual Cash-Based, Short-Term Incentive Compensation. The Company did not implement a cash-based, short-term incentive plan for the Named Executive Officers in 2013. Consequently, the Named Executive Officers did not receive a short-term, cash bonus for 2013.

Long-Term Performance Incentive Compensation. Our long-term incentive compensation plan is based on the delivery of non-equity incentive compensation and equity-based compensation in accordance with the following two plans:

Non-Equity Incentive Compensation. The Chicopee Bancorp, Inc., 2012 Phantom Stock Unit Award and Long-term Incentive Plan (LTIP) is intended to supplement selected key contributor compensation and to encourage participants to accomplish longer term performance objectives consistent with the Bank’s business objectives. The LTIP is an annual cash-based incentive plan that is granted based on the previous year’s EPS and other bank performance measures determined by the Board and paid to the participant at the end of three years. For 2013, the President and Chief Executive Officer, the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer and the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer received award grants, which as of December 31, 2013, had a value of $9,985, $8,867 and $8,312, respectively. These grants are subject to a three-year cliff vesting schedule (100% vesting after three years).

Equity Based Compensation. Under the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan, awards are granted based on the achievement of specific named objectives during the previous calendar year. In 2013, Named Executive Officers received the following grants, which are subject to a five-year vesting schedule with twenty percent (20%) vesting each year: the President and Chief Executive Officer received a grant of 30,000 stock options, the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer received a grant of 10,000 stock options and the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer received a grant of 15,000 stock options. The Compensation Committee believes that equity-based compensation is an important element of our overall compensation philosophy that provides officers and directors with incentives linked to the performance of our common stock and enables us to retain high-level executives and ties the compensation of those executives to the creation of long-term value for our stockholders. The nature and size of the awards under our equity-based program are based on a number of factors including performance objectives, awards made to those holding comparable positions in our peer group, applicable regulatory restrictions and the tax consequences and accounting treatment of specific equity compensation techniques.

Clawback Policy. The Company adopted a clawback policy to recover certain incentive payments paid to the Company’s Named Executive Officers in the event the Compensation Committee determines that fraud, material error, gross negligence or intentional misconduct by a Named Executive Officer contributed to the Company’s restatement of its financial statements.

Employee Benefit Compensation. The Compensation Committee believes that the employee benefit program should be competitive and consistent with our employee needs. Moreover, our executives and employees live in the community we serve and their welfare is important. The Compensation Committee balances employee benefit compensation to meet income replacement needs in the event of death, sickness, retirement and disability.

Stockholder Vote. At our annual 2013 meeting, our stockholders overwhelmingly supported our “say-on-pay” resolution, voting to approve the executive compensation disclosed in last year’s proxy statement. The Committee considers the stockholder advisory vote from the most recent annual meeting, along with commentary from proxy advisory firms that opined on the matters voted on at the meeting.

Allocation Among Compensation Elements

The mix of base salary, short-term, cash-based incentives, long-term incentive compensation and benefits varies depending upon the role and responsibility of the individual officer in the organization. Benefits round out the total compensation. All compensation elements are allocated to achieve the Company’s total pay philosophy of balancing risk and reward.

Potential Post-Termination or Change in Control Benefits

We recognize that an important consideration in our ability to attract and retain key personnel is our ability to minimize the impact on our management team of the possible disruption associated with our analysis and incorporation of strategic opportunities. Accordingly, we believe that it is in the best interest of Chicopee Bancorp and its stockholders to provide our key personnel with reasonable financial arrangements in the event of termination of employment following a change in control or involuntary termination of employment for reasons other than cause. Each of our executives who has an employment agreement or a change in control agreement has a provision in his or her agreement that provides for certain benefits in the event of voluntary or involuntary termination following a change in control. These provisions, along with the estimated severance payments for the executives, are described in the “Potential Post-Termination or Change in Control Benefits” section of this proxy statement. In addition, the employment agreements and change in control agreements contain provisions that provide for certain severance benefits in the event we terminate an executive’s employment for reasons other than cause. These provisions, along with the estimated severance payments for the executives, are described in the “Potential Post-Termination or Change in Control Benefits” section of this proxy statement.

We also maintain an employee severance compensation plan for all eligible employees who do not have a change in control agreement or employment agreement. This plan provides the employees with a severance benefit in the event their employment is terminated within one year of a change in control.

Tax and Accounting Considerations

In consultation with our tax and accounting advisors, we evaluate the tax consequences to Chicopee Bancorp and accounting treatment of each of our compensation programs at the time of adoption and on an annual basis to ensure that we understand the financial impact of the program. Our analysis includes a detailed review of recently adopted and pending changes in tax and accounting requirements. As part of our review, we consider modifications and/or alternatives to existing programs to take advantage of favorable changes in the tax or accounting environment or to avoid adverse consequences.

Retirement Benefits

We offer our employees two tax-qualified retirement plans, which include a 401(k) plan and an employee stock ownership plan (ESOP).

Our primary retirement vehicle is our 401(k) plan, which enables our employees to supplement their retirement savings with voluntary contributions of deferred compensation that we match at a specified level. We also provide an annual Safe Harbor contribution of 3% of pay.

In addition, we maintain an employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) that allows participants to accumulate a retirement benefit in Company stock funded by the employer.

Consistent with industry practice, we supplement our tax-qualified plans with nonqualified arrangements that provide benefits to certain officers who are affected by Internal Revenue Code limits applicable to tax-qualified plans. We provide our President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer with supplemental executive retirement agreements, which provide the executives with an annual retirement benefit. See “Executive Compensation – Nonqualified Deferred Compensation” for a description of the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP).

Perquisites

We provide certain officers, including the President and Chief Executive Officer, the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer and the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, with limited perquisites similar to those provided to executives employed by our peers. All perquisites have a business purpose and are intended to further the officers’ abilities to promote the business purposes of the Company in our markets and to reflect competitive practices for similarly situated officers employed by our peers.

Director Compensation

Our outside directors are compensated through a combination of retainers and meeting fees. Outside directors also participate in the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan. Directors who are also employees of Chicopee Bancorp do not receive additional compensation for service on the Board. The level and mix of director compensation is reviewed annually by the Compensation Committee to ensure consistency with the objectives of our overall compensation philosophy. Survey data provided by Pearl Meyer & Partners and Arthur Warren Associates is used for the review process. The Compensation Committee voted to increase the level of fees paid to the members of the Audit Committee effective in 2014. See “Director Compensation” for the compensation paid to our Board of Directors in 2013.

Stock Compensation Grant and Award Practices

The Compensation Committee annually considers whether to make stock option grants and/or award other forms of equity under the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan. Future grants or awards may be made based on specific circumstances such as a new hire, a contractual commitment or a change in position or responsibility. Under the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan, as approved by the Company’s stockholders in 2007, the exercise price of a stock option is the closing market price on the date of a grant. The grant date is the date the Compensation Committee approves the award in accordance with the Plan.

As a general matter, the Compensation Committee’s process is independent of any consideration of the timing of the release of material nonpublic information, including the determination of grant dates or stock option exercise prices. The Compensation Committee’s recommendations are reviewed and, if accepted, ratified by the Board. Similarly, we have never timed the release of material nonpublic information with the purpose or intent of affecting the value of executive compensation.

Stock Ownership Requirements

We have not adopted formal stock ownership requirements for our executive officers and Board members. Massachusetts law requires that each director own Company common stock having a fair market value of not less than $1,000. However, as a practical matter, our Named Executive Officers and directors hold significant interests in our stock, whether accumulated through individual purchases or participation in stock compensation programs. See the “Stock Ownership” section in this proxy statement.

Compensation for the Named Executive Officers

The Compensation Committee reviews and approves base salaries for the Named Executive Officers in a manner consistent with the base salary guidelines applied to executive officers of the Company as a whole. In general, the Compensation Committee considers the Company’s financial performance, peer group financial performance and compensation survey data when making decisions regarding a Named Executive Officer’s compensation, including salary, bonus and awards made under the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan. For detailed information on the Company’s peer group, see “Role of Compensation Consultants” above in this Compensation Discussion and Analysis.

Chief Executive Officer Compensation. In determining William J. Wagner’s compensation, the Compensation Committee conducted a performance appraisal that reviewed Mr. Wagner’s financial, strategic and operational achievements. As a result of this assessment, the Compensation Committee, along with the support of the Board of Directors, increased William J. Wagner’s base salary to $433,991, which represents a 6% increase effective January 1, 2014. On December 18, 2013, the Company's Board of Directors extended Mr. Wagner's employment agreement for an additional year, so that the term of the agreement remains three years.

Our Other Named Executive Officers. The Compensation Committee increased base compensation for the other Named Executive Officers for 2014 as follows: Russell J. Omer by 6.1% to $244,500 and Guida R. Sajdak by 9.3% to $176,000. In addition, on December 18, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors extended Russell J. Omer’s employment agreement for an additional year, so that the term of the agreement remains three years.

The Compensation Committee believes that the compensation for the Named Executive Officers is consistent with our compensation philosophy as described above.

Employment Agreements

The Company and the Bank each maintain three-year employment agreements with the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer. The Company and Bank employment agreements may be renewed on an annual basis for an additional year beyond the then current expiration date in connection with each executive’s performance review by the Board of Directors of the Bank. The current base salaries under the employment agreements for the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer are $433,991 and $244,500, respectively. Each executive’s salary is reviewed at least annually. In addition to base salary, the employment agreements provide for, among other things, participation in stock benefits plans and other fringe benefits applicable to executive personnel. The employment agreements also provide the executives with certain payments and benefits upon termination of service. See “Potential Post-Termination or Change in Control Benefits.”

The Bank or the Company (as applicable) will pay all reasonable costs and legal fees paid or incurred by the President and Chief Executive Officer or the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer in any dispute or question of interpretation relating to their employment agreements if the executives are successful on the merits in a legal judgment, arbitration or settlement. The employment agreements also provide that the Bank or the Company (as applicable) will indemnify the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer to the fullest extent legally allowable and subject the executives to a one year non-compete in the event their employment is terminated for reasons other than a change in control or cause.

Change in Control Agreement

The Bank maintains a change in control agreement with the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. The change in control agreement has a three-year term which renews daily. If, within two years after a change in control, the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer involuntarily or voluntarily (upon the occurrence of circumstances specified in the agreements) terminates employment with the Bank for reasons other than for cause, she will be entitled to receive a lump sum severance payment equal to three times her average annual compensation for the five years preceding the change in control, plus continued health insurance coverage for thirty-six months from her termination date. In addition, if prior to a change in control, the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer involuntarily or voluntarily (upon the occurrence of circumstances specified in the agreements) terminates employment with the Bank for reasons other than for cause, she will be entitled to receive a lump sum severance payment equal to eighteen months of base salary and she would be required to adhere to a six-month non-competition provision. See “Potential Post-Termination or Change in Control Benefits.”

During the year ended December 31, 2013, no shares of restricted stock were awarded to our Named Executive Officers under our 2007 Equity Incentive Plan. The options awarded vest in five equal annual installments beginning on January 22, 2014.

(2)

Amounts represent phantom stock units awarded to Ms. Sajdak and Mr. Omer under the LTIP, which was approved by the Compensation Committee. The awards become 100% vested on December 31, 2015, subject to the officer’s continued employment. These phantom stock units may be settled solely in cash, with the grantee receiving in cash, generally, the book value of a share of Chicopee Bancorp common stock for each unit which becomes vested. Ms. Sajdak and Mr. Omer have no rights to vote or receive dividend equivalents with respect to any shares covered by the phantom stock units. Since the award provides for a single estimated payout which is not determinable in the year of grant, the applicable proxy statement disclosure rules require Chicopee Bancorp to disclose the estimated payout in the target column based on the previous fiscal year’s performance. The amount shown reflects the book value as of December 31, 2013, of $16.97.

Option Exercises and Stock Vested

During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Named Executive Officers did not exercise any stock options and did not vest in any restricted stock awards.

Executive Supplemental Retirement Income Agreements. The Bank maintains an individual executive supplemental retirement income agreement with the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer. For the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer only, the Bank makes an annual contribution to a secular grantor trust established for his benefit. The President and Chief Executive Officer’s benefit is fully funded from past Bank contributions, and accordingly, the Bank no longer makes any contributions to the secular grantor trust established for his benefit. The amount of the Bank’s annual contributions are reported in the Summary Compensation Table, and the contributions constitute taxable income to the executives. These contributions are invested at the direction of the executives to fund the executive supplemental retirement income agreement benefits. If an executive exercises withdrawal rights with respect to the contributions made to the secular grantor trust, the Bank continues to accrue “phantom” contributions to the grantor trust, but makes no further contributions to the secular trust on the participant’s behalf. Benefits may be distributed from the trust upon retirement, death or termination of service. See “Potential Post-Termination or Change in Control Benefits.”

Chicopee Bancorp, Inc. 2012 Phantom Stock Unit Award and Long-Term Incentive Plan. The Company implemented the Chicopee Bancorp, Inc. 2012 Phantom Stock Unit Award and Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), effective as of January 1, 2012, to promote the long-term financial success of the Company and its subsidiaries by providing a means to attract, retain and reward individuals who contribute to such success and to further align their interests with those of the Company’s stockholders. The Plan is intended to provide benefits to the Named Executive Officers and other executive officers of the Company or any subsidiary selected by the Committee. The Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (“Committee”). A total of 150,000 phantom stock units are available for awards under the Plan. A phantom stock unit represents the right to receive a cash payment on the date the award vests (also referred to as the determination date) equal to the book value of a share of the Company’s common stock on the determination date, which is the last day of the plan year that is the end of the third plan year after the grant date of the award, unless otherwise specified by the Committee. The settlement of a phantom stock unit on the determination date will be in cash, subject to applicable tax withholding. Unless the Committee determines otherwise, the required period of service for full vesting will be three years, subject to acceleration of vesting in the event of the participant’s death, disability, retirement, involuntary termination without cause or the occurrence of a change in control, unless determined otherwise by the Committee. In the event of separation of service (as defined in the Plan) for any reason other than disability, death, retirement or termination without cause, phantom stock units will be forfeited. In the event of termination for cause, the phantom stock units granted to a participant will expire and be forfeited. Upon separation of service due to disability, death, retirement or involuntary termination without cause, including resignation for “good reason” (as defined in the Plan), all phantom stock units will become fully vested and payment of the cash value of the phantom stock units will be made no later than 75 days after the participant’s separation of service. In the event of a change in control, (i) the phantom stock units held by a participant will be deemed to have been fully earned, (ii) the cash value of outstanding awards will be paid no later than 10 days after the change in control, (iii) any performance measure attached to an award will be deemed satisfied as of the date of the change in control, and (iv) the cash value of the phantom stock unit will be determined by multiplying the book value of a share of Company common stock by the price-to-book value multiple of a share of the Company stock, where the price reflects the merger consideration per share.

On January 1, 2013, the Company awarded 1,214.32 and 827.17 phantom stock units to the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer and the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, respectively. These units will cliff vest in three years, at which time the participant will receive a cash payment equal to the book value of a share of the Company’s common stock on the determination date.

Nonqualified Deferred Compensation

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan. The Bank maintains the Chicopee Savings Bank Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, a non-tax-qualified defined contribution retirement plan, for the purpose of providing restorative payments to executives designated by the Board of Directors who are prevented from receiving the full benefits contemplated by the employee stock ownership plan’s benefit formula and the full matching contribution under the 401(k) Plan. The President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer are currently the only participants in the plan (see table below). The restorative payments under the plan consist of payments in lieu of shares that cannot be allocated to the participant’s account under the employee stock ownership plan and payments for employer matching contributions that cannot be allocated under the 401(k) Plan due to the legal limitations imposed on tax-qualified plans. In addition to providing for benefits lost under the employee stock ownership plan and 401(k) Plan as a result of limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue Code, the supplemental executive retirement plan also provides supplemental benefits to participants upon a change in control (as defined in the plan) before the complete scheduled repayment of the employee stock ownership plan loan. See “Potential Post-Termination or Change in Control Benefits.”

The following table provides information for the nonqualified deferred compensation plan in which the Named Executive Officers participated in 2013.

Name	Plan Name	Registrant Contributions in Last Fiscal Year ($)	Aggregate Earnings in 2013 ($)	Aggregate Balance at Last Fiscal Year End ($)

William J. Wagner	Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan	13,258	—	266,773

Russell J. Omer	Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan	3,235	—	29,249

Potential Post-Termination or Change in Control Benefits

Payments Made Upon Termination for Cause. If the President and Chief Executive Officer or the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer is terminated for cause, the applicable executive will receive his base salary through the date of termination and retain the rights to any vested benefits subject to the terms of the plan or agreement under which those benefits are provided.

Under the executive supplemental income agreements for the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer, if the executive does not exercise his withdrawal rights and is terminated for cause, no further contributions to the executive’s secular grantor trust will be required of the Bank, and if not yet made, no contribution will be required for the plan year in which such termination for cause occurs. Under similar circumstances and if the executive exercises his withdrawal rights, the entire balance of the executive’s accrued benefit account at the time of the termination, which shall include any phantom contributions which have been recorded plus interest accrued on such phantom contributions, will be forfeited.

All benefits credited to the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer under the supplemental executive retirement plan are nonforfeitable under the plan and therefore will be distributed to the executive upon termination of employment for any reason.

All unvested stock awards and unvested or unexercised stock options granted under the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan will be forfeited in the event of termination for cause.

Payments Made Upon Voluntary Termination and Termination without Cause or for Good Reason. If the President and Chief Executive Officer or the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer, respectively, voluntarily terminates employment under circumstances that would not constitute good reason (as defined in the applicable executive’s employment agreement), the applicable executive would be entitled to receive his compensation and vested rights and benefits up to the date of his termination. If the Company or the Bank chooses to terminate the President and Chief Executive Officer’s or the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer’s employment for reasons other than for cause, or if the executive resigns from the Company or the Bank under specified circumstances that would constitute constructive termination, the applicable executive (or, upon his death, his beneficiary) would be entitled to receive a lump sum severance payment equal to his base salary due for the remaining term of his employment agreement and the contributions that would have been made on his behalf to any employee benefit plans of the Bank and the Company during the remaining term of his employment agreement. In addition, the applicable executive would also be entitled to continued life, health and dental coverage for the remaining term of the employment agreements. Upon termination of the executive’s employment under these circumstances, he must adhere to a one-year, non-competition restriction.

Under the executive supplemental retirement income agreements for the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer, if the executive does not exercise his withdrawal rights and is involuntarily terminated for any reason, including a termination due to disability but excluding termination for cause, or termination following a change in control, within ten days of the involuntary termination of employment, the Bank will be required to make an immediate lump sum contribution to the executive’s secular grantor trust in an amount equal to: (i) the full contribution required for the plan year in which the involuntary termination occurs, if not yet made, plus (ii) the present value of the lesser of (A) the next five years contributions to the secular grantor trust or (B) all remaining contributions to the secular grantor trust; provided however, that, if necessary, an amount shall be contributed to the secular grantor trust which is sufficient to provide the executive with after tax benefits beginning at the benefit date, equal in amount to that benefit which would have been payable to the executive if no secular trust had been implemented and the benefit obligation had been accrued under applicable accounting guidance. Under similar circumstances and if the executive exercises his withdrawal rights, the Bank will be required to record, within ten days of the involuntary termination of employment, a final phantom contribution in an amount equal to: (i) the full phantom contribution required for the plan year in which such involuntary termination occurs, if not yet made, plus (ii) the present value of the lesser of (A) the next five years contributions to the secular grantor trust or (B) all remaining phantom contributions.

All unvested stock awards and unvested or unexercised stock options granted under the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan will be forfeited upon voluntary termination and termination without cause or good reason.

Payments Made Upon Disability. If the President and Chief Executive Officer or the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer becomes disabled, resulting in the executive’s termination of employment, the employment agreements provide for a disability benefit equal to 100% of the executive’s bi-weekly rate of base salary as of the executive’s termination date. The executives’ disability payments will be reduced by any disability benefits paid to the executives under any policy or program maintained by the Bank and/or the Company. Disability benefits cease upon the earlier of: (1) the date an executive returns to full-time employment; (2) the executive’s death; (3) the executive’s attainment of age 65; or (4) the expiration of the executive’s employment agreement.

The Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer participates in the Bank’s disability plan and is entitled to benefits based on age and compensation.

Upon termination due to disability, outstanding stock options granted pursuant to our 2007 Equity Incentive Plan automatically vest and remain exercisable until the earlier of one year from the date of termination due to disability or the expiration date of the stock options. Restricted stock awards granted to these executives under the plan automatically vest upon termination due to disability.

See also discussion above in “—Payments Made Upon Voluntary Termination and Termination Without Cause or for Good Reason” for a discussion of payments made upon disability under the executive supplemental income agreements and the supplemental executive retirement plan.

Payments Made Upon Death. Under the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer’s employment agreements, the executive’s estate is entitled to receive compensation due to the executive through the last day of the calendar month in which his death occurred.

Upon termination due to death, outstanding stock options granted pursuant to our 2007 Equity Incentive Plan automatically vest and remain exercisable until the earlier of one year from the date of death or the expiration date of the stock options. Restricted stock awards granted to these executives under the plan automatically vest upon death.

Under the executive supplemental income agreement for the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer, if the executive does not exercise his withdrawal rights, dies while employed by the Bank, and if, following the executive's death, the assets of the secular grantor trust are insufficient to provide the supplemental retirement income benefit to which the executive is entitled, the Bank will be required to make a contribution to the secular grantor trust equal to the sum of the remaining contributions set forth in the agreement, after taking into consideration any payments under any life insurance policies that may have been obtained on the executive's life by the secular grantor trust. The final contribution will be payable in a lump sum to the secular grantor trust within 30 days of the executive’s death. If the executive exercises his withdrawal rights and dies while employed by the Bank, phantom contributions included in the agreement shall be required of the Bank. Such phantom contributions shall commence in the plan year following the plan year in which the executive exercises his withdrawal rights and shall continue through the plan year in which the executive dies. The Bank shall also be required to record a final phantom contribution within 30 days of the executive’s death. The amount of such final phantom contribution shall be actuarially determined based on the phantom contribution required at such time (if any), in order to provide a benefit via the agreement equivalent to the supplemental retirement income benefit commencing within 30 days of the date the administrator receives notice of the executive’s death and continuing for the duration of the payout period. Pursuant to the terms of the executive supplemental income agreement, the President and Chief Executive Officer will not receive any additional employer contributions.

All benefits credited to the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer under the supplemental executive retirement plan are nonforfeitable under the plan and therefore will be distributed to each executive upon termination of employment for any reason.

Retirement. Under the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer’s employment agreements, the executive will receive the compensation due to him through his retirement date.

The Bank’s executive supplemental income agreements provide that the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer will receive a supplemental retirement income benefit following retirement at or after age 65. This benefit may be payable in a lump sum or in monthly installments over a 20-year period. In the event an executive dies at anytime after the later of: (i) his 65th birthday or (ii) the actual date the executive terminates his service with the Bank, but prior to the commencement or completion of his benefit payments, the Bank will pay the executive’s beneficiary the benefits which were due to the executive. The actual amount of each executive’s supplemental income retirement benefit will be a function of: (i) the amount and timing of contributions (or phantom contributions) to the secular grantor trust (or an accrued benefit account) and (ii) the actual investment experience of the contributions (or the monthly compounding rate of phantom contributions).

All unvested stock awards and unvested or unexercised stock options granted under the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan will be forfeited upon retirement.

Payments Made Upon Termination Following a Change in Control. The employment agreements for the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer provide the executive with severance benefits, if within two years following a change in control of the Bank or the Company, the executive terminates employment for good reason (as defined in the agreements) or if the Bank, Company or its successor terminates the executives employment for reasons other than cause following a change in control. The severance benefit would be equal to three times the average of the executive’s annual compensation for the five preceding taxable years (the “base amount”), plus the value of the benefits the executives would have received under the Bank’s retirement plans for 36 months. Continued life, health and dental coverage would also be provided to the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer for 36 months following their termination of employment. Under the terms of the Company’s employment agreement, the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer would also be entitled to receive additional tax indemnification payments if the payments and benefits under their employment agreements or any other payments triggered liability under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, as an excise tax constituting “excess parachute payments.” Under applicable law, the excise tax is triggered by change in control-related payments which equal or exceed three times an executive's base amount. The excise tax equals 20% of the amount of the payment in excess of one times the executive's base amount.

The change in control agreement for the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer provides the executive with a severance benefit if, following a change in control of the Bank or the Company, the executive terminates employment for good reason (as defined in the agreements) or if the Bank, Company or a successor of the Company or the Bank terminates the executive’s employment for reasons other than cause within two years of a change in control. The severance benefit would be equal to three times the executive’s base amount. Continued life, health, dental and disability coverage would also be provided to the executive for 36 months following her termination of employment. However, the change in agreements provide that the total value of the benefits provided and payments made to the executive in connection with a change in control may not exceed three times the executive’s base amount (“280G Limit”). In addition, if prior to a change in control, the executive terminates employment for good reason (as defined in the agreements) or if the Bank, Company or a successor of the Company or the Bank terminates the executive’s employment for reasons other than cause, she will be entitled to receive a lump sum severance payment equal to eighteen months of base salary and she would be required to adhere to a six-month, non-competition provision.

Under the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer’s executive supplemental income agreement, if the executive does not exercise his withdrawal rights and a change in control occurs at the Bank, followed within 36 months by either (i) the executive's involuntary termination of employment, or (ii) the executive's voluntary termination of employment under circumstances set forth in the agreement, the Bank is required to make a final contribution to the secular grantor trust within ten days of the executive’s termination of employment equal to the present value of all remaining contributions which would have been required to be made on behalf of the executive if the executive had remained in the employ of the Bank until the benefit date; provided, however, in no event shall the contribution be less than an amount which is sufficient to provide the executive with after-tax benefits beginning at his benefit age, equal in amount to that benefit which would have been payable to the executive if no secular trust had been implemented and the benefit obligation had been accrued under applicable accounting guidance. Under similar circumstances and if the executive exercises his withdrawal rights, the Bank shall be required to record a lump sum phantom contribution in the accrued benefit account within ten days of the executive’s termination of employment. The amount of such final phantom contribution shall be actuarially determined based on the phantom contribution required, at such time, in order to provide a benefit via the agreement equivalent to the supplemental retirement income benefit, on an after-tax basis, commencing on the executive's benefit commencement date and continuing for the duration of the payout period. The President and Chief Executive Officer is not entitled to any additional employer contributions to his executive supplemental income agreement.

Under the terms of our employee stock ownership plan, upon a change in control (as defined in the plan), the plan will terminate and the plan trustee will repay in full any outstanding acquisition loan. After repayment of the acquisition loan, all remaining shares of our stock held in the loan suspense account, all other stock or securities, and any cash proceeds from the sale or other disposition of any shares of our stock held in the loan suspense account will be allocated among the accounts of all participants in the plan who were employed by us on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the change in control. The allocations of shares or cash proceeds shall be credited to each eligible participant in proportion to the opening balances in their accounts as of the first day of the valuation period in which the change in control occurred. Unlike the payments made under the employment agreements, change in control agreement, and non-qualified defined compensation arrangements, payments under our employee stock ownership plan are not categorized as parachute payments and therefore not subject to each executive’s 280G Limit.

We maintain a supplemental executive retirement plan that provides the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer with a cash payment in the event of a change in control equal to the benefit the executive would have received under our employee stock ownership plan, had the executive remained employed throughout the term of the loan, less the benefits actually provided under the employee stock ownership plan on the executive’s behalf. All benefits credited to the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer under the supplemental executive retirement plan are nonforfeitable under the plan and therefore will be distributed to the executive upon termination of employment for any reason.

In the event of a change in control of the Company or the Bank, outstanding stock options granted pursuant to our 2007 Equity Incentive Plan automatically vest and, if the option holder is terminated other than for cause within 12 months of the change in control, will remain exercisable until the expiration date of the stock options. Restricted stock awards granted to executives under the plan also vest in full upon a change in control. The value of the accelerated options and restricted stock grants count towards each executive’s 280G Limit.

Potential Post-Termination or Change in Control Benefits Tables. The amount of compensation payable to each Named Executive Officer upon termination for cause, termination without cause, change in control with termination of employment, disability and retirement is shown below. The amounts shown assume that such termination was effective as of December 31, 2013, and thus include amounts earned through such time and are estimates of the amounts which would be paid out to the executives upon their termination. The amounts do not include the executive’s account balances in the Bank’s tax-qualified retirement plans or executive account balances in the supplemental income agreements to which each executive has a non-forfeitable interest. The amounts shown relating to unvested options and awards are based upon the closing price of the Company’s common stock on December 31, 2013, of $17.41 per share. The actual amounts to be paid out can only be determined at the time of such executive’s separation from Chicopee Bancorp.

Potential Post-Termination or Change in Control Benefits

Under the terms of their employment and change in control agreements, the President and Chief Executive Officer, the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer and the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer are entitled to certain payments upon a termination of employment, including a termination of employment following a change in control. Set forth below is information as of December 31, 2013, regarding estimated potential payments to the President and Chief Executive Officer, the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer and the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer following a termination of employment. The actual amount of each payment can only be determined at the time of such executive’s termination of employment.

The amounts shown below do not include the executive’s account balances in the Bank’s tax-qualified retirement plans or the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer’s account balances in the SERP or executive supplemental income agreements to which each executive has a non-forfeitable interest. For a description of the estimated severance payments as shown in the tables below, please see the explanations provided above in this section.

In addition, for purposes of the present value calculations, the Company has assumed a discount rate of 8% in order to be consistent with the agreement.

(6)	The LTIP provides for accelerated vesting and a lump sum payment in the event of death, disability, involuntary termination without cause or the occurrence of a change in control. The amount shown reflects the book value as of December 31, 2013 of $16.97.

Other Information Relating to Directors and Executive Officers

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Our common stock is registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Our executive officers and directors and beneficial owners of greater than 10% of our common stock are required to file reports on Forms 3, 4 and 5 with the Securities and Exchange Commission disclosing beneficial ownership and changes in beneficial ownership of our common stock. Securities and Exchange Commission rules require disclosure in a company’s annual proxy statement and annual report on Form 10-K of the failure of an executive officer, director or 10% beneficial owner of our common stock to file a Form 3, 4 or 5 on a timely basis. Based on our review of ownership reports, no executive officer, director or 10% beneficial owner of our common stock failed to file such ownership reports on a timely basis for the year ended December 31, 2013, except for director Thomas Bardon, who filed one late Form 4 on March 20, 2014, relating to one sale of the Company’s stock and William Giokas, who filed one late Form 4 on February 28, 2014, relating to one sale of the Company’s stock.

Policies and Procedures for Approval of Related Persons Transactions

The Audit Committee has adopted a written policy which provides procedures for the review, approval and/or ratification of certain transactions required to be reported under applicable rules of the SEC. Under these procedures, related party consists of directors, executive officers, persons or entities known to the Company to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the outstanding class of the voting securities of the Company or immediate family members. Pursuant to the Audit Committee Charter, unless otherwise reviewed and approved by a committee of independent directors, the Audit Committee shall review and approve all related party transactions.

Transactions with Related Persons

Loans or Extensions of Credit. A number of the Company’s directors and their associates are customers of the Bank. All extensions of credit made to them are made in the ordinary course of business on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with others, and do not involve more than normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features. None of such credits are past due or are classified as non-accrual, restructured or potential problem loans.

Submission of Business Proposals and Stockholder Nominations

The Company must receive proposals that stockholders seek to include in the proxy statement for the Company’s next annual meeting no later than December 17, 2014. If next year’s annual meeting is held on a date more than 30 calendar days from May 28, 2015, a stockholder proposal must be received by a reasonable time before the Company begins to print and mail its proxy solicitation for such annual meeting. Any stockholder proposals will be subject to the requirements of the proxy rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Company’s bylaws provide that, in order for a stockholder to make nominations for the election of directors or proposals for business to be brought before the annual meeting, a stockholder must deliver notice of such nominations and/or proposals to the Corporate Secretary not less than 120 days in advance of the first anniversary of the date of the Company’s proxy statement for the previous years’ annual meeting. However, if no annual meeting was held in the previous year or the date of the annual meeting has been changed by more than 30 calendar days from date of the previous year’s annual meeting and in connection with the first annual meeting following the conversion, then such notice must be received not later than the close of business of the tenth day following the day on which notice of the date of the annual meeting was mailed to stockholders or prior public disclosure of the meeting date was made. A copy of the bylaws may be obtained from the Company.

Stockholder Communications

The Company encourages stockholder communications to the Board of Directors and/or individual directors. All communications from stockholders should be addressed to Chicopee Bancorp, Inc., P.O. Box 300, 70 Center Street, Chicopee, Massachusetts 01014. Communications to the Board of Directors should be in the care of Theresa C. Szlosek, Corporate Secretary. Communications to individual directors should be sent to such director at the Company’s address. Stockholders who wish to communicate with a Committee of the Board should send their communications to the care of the Chair of the particular committee, with a copy to Thomas Bardon, the Chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. It is in the discretion of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee whether any communication sent to the full Board should be brought before the full Board.

Miscellaneous

The Company will pay the cost of this proxy solicitation. The Company will reimburse brokerage firms and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for reasonable expenses incurred by them in sending proxy materials to the beneficial owners of the Company. Additionally, directors, officers and other employees of the Company may solicit proxies personally or by telephone. None of these persons will receive additional compensation for these activities.

The Company’s Annual Report to Stockholders has been included with this proxy statement. Any stockholder who has not received a copy of the Annual Report may obtain a copy by writing to the Corporate Secretary of the Company. The Annual Report is not to be treated as part of the proxy solicitation material or as having been incorporated by reference into this proxy statement.

If you and others who share your address own your shares in “street name,” your broker or other holder of record may be sending only one annual report and proxy statement to your address. This practice, known as “householding,” is designed to reduce our printing and postage costs. However, if a stockholder residing at such an address wishes to receive a separate annual report or proxy statement in the future, he or she should contact the broker or other holder of record. If you own your shares in “street name” and are receiving multiple copies of our annual report and proxy statement, you can request householding by contacting your broker or other holder of record.

Whether or not you plan to attend the annual meeting, please vote by marking, signing, dating and promptly returning the enclosed proxy card in the enclosed envelope.
