Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On April 2, 2026 S&T Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) and S&T Bank entered into an amended and restated employment agreement (the “Employment Agreement”) with the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Christopher McComish, which agreement amends and restates the existing terms of employment and compensation of Mr. McComish. The Employment Agreement is effective as of January 1, 2026 and has a four-year term, subject to automatic renewal for one-year periods thereafter. The Employment Agreement provides for an annual base salary of no less than $785,000 and eligibility for an annual bonus for each fiscal year of the Company pursuant to the Company’s management incentive plan, with a target payout equal to sixty-seven percent (67%) of his annual base salary. Mr. McComish is also eligible for long-term incentive awards, with a target value (measured as of the grant date) equal to at least 100% of his annual base salary, with 50% of such award in the form of time-vesting awards and the remaining 50% in the form of time-vesting and performance-vesting awards. In addition, Mr. McComish will be eligible for employee benefits that are generally applicable to other senior executives of the Company and certain other benefits, including an annual vehicle allowance not to exceed $25,000, payment or reimbursement of certain club dues and payment or reimbursement of Mr. McComish’s legal fees incurred in connection with the preparation of this Employment Agreement (up to a cap of $25,000). If Mr. McComish’s employment is terminated without cause or for good reason, Mr. McComish would be eligible for a cash severance benefit equal to two times the sum of his annual base salary and target annual bonus (or, if such termination is within two years following a change in control of the Company, three times the sum of his annual base salary and target annual bonus, and a pro-rated target annual bonus based on the date of termination), an amount equal to 24 months of COBRA premiums (or, if such termination is within two years following a change in control of the Company, 36 months of COBRA premiums) and outstanding time-based long term incentive awards would remain outstanding and entitled to vest and all outstanding performance based long term incentive awards would remain outstanding and be eligible to vest contingent on the Company’s achievement of the applicable performance goals (or, if such termination is within two years following a change in control of the Company, all long term incentive awards would immediately vest). Such severance benefits are subject to Mr. McComish’s execution of a release of claims in favor of the Company. The Employment Agreement also subjects Mr. McComish to perpetual covenants concerning nondisclosure of confidential information and non-disparagement and covenants concerning non-competition and non-solicitation of customers and employees, which apply for one year following his termination of employment.
