Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

On May 20, 2026, Lake Shore Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") held its Annual Meeting of Shareholders, at which time shareholders were asked to consider four proposals, as follows:

1. To elect three (3) Class Three directors to the Board of Directors of the Company for a three-year term expiring in 2029;

2. To approve, on an advisory basis, a non-binding resolution regarding the compensation of our named executive officers;

3. To choose the frequency of the advisory vote on the non-binding resolution to approve compensation of our named executive officers; and

4. To ratify the appointment of Yount, Hyde & Barbour, P.C. as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2026.

The shareholders elected the directors to the terms stated above, approved the non-binding resolution regarding the compensation of our named executive officers, chose a one year frequency for the advisory vote on the non-binding resolution to approve compensation of our named executive officers, and ratified the appointment of Yount, Hyde & Barbour, P.C. as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.

The vote tabulation was as follows:

1. To elect three (3) Class Three directors to the Board of Directors of the Company for a three-year term expiring in 2029.

2. To approve, on an advisory basis, a non-binding resolution regarding the compensation of our named executive officers.

3. To choose the frequency of the advisory vote on the non-binding resolution to approve compensation of our named executive officers.

4. To ratify the appointment of Yount, Hyde & Barbour, P.C. as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2026.

Consistent with the Board of Directors’ recommendation in the proxy statement for the Annual Meeting, and in light of the shareholder vote on the frequency of the shareholder vote on executive compensation, the Company has determined to include in its proxy materials the shareholder advisory vote on the compensation of its named executive officers annually until the next required vote on the frequency of shareholder votes on executive compensation.
