Our Officers, Directors and Employees Will Receive Additional Compensation and Benefit Programs After the Offering

We intend to adopt an employee stock ownership plan, which will award shares of our common stock to eligible employees primarily based on their compensation. It is expected that our employee stock ownership plan will purchase a number of shares equal to 8% of the shares sold in the offering plus shares issued to the charitable foundation. It is expected that the employee stock ownership plan will purchase such shares with the funds from a 30-year loan from Lake Shore Bancorp.

Additionally, we may implement a stock option plan and a management recognition plan that will provide for grants of stock options and of restricted stock. If such stock-based incentive plans are implemented and approved by stockholders within one year of the completion of the offering, the number of options granted or shares awarded under the stock-based incentive plans may not exceed 4.90% and 1.96%, respectively, of the shares outstanding after the offering (including shares issued to the Lake Shore Charitable Foundation).

The employee stock ownership plan and the stock-based incentive plans will increase our future compensation costs, thereby reducing our earnings. The Financial Accounting Standards Board and the Securities and Exchange Commission recently finalized rules that require public companies to expense the grant-date fair value of stock options granted to officers, directors and employees by their first fiscal year beginning after June 15, 2005, which, for us, is the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2006. Since all stock options will be granted after January 1, 2006, we will expense the grant-date fair value of such stock options. Recognizing an expense equal to the grant-date fair value of stock options will increase our compensation costs over the vesting period of the options. Additionally, stockholders will experience a reduction in their ownership interest if we issue new shares of our common stock from our authorized but unissued shares of common stock to fund stock option grants and stock awards. See “ Risk Factors—Risks Related to the Offering—Our Stock-Based Incentive and Benefit Plans Will Increase Our Costs, Which Will Reduce Our Income ” and “ Management—Benefit Plans .”

We may obtain the shares needed for the stock-based incentive plans by issuing additional shares of common stock or through stock repurchases. However, because Lake Shore, MHC must own a majority of our outstanding shares of common stock as long as it is in existence, we will fund the plans with treasury shares acquired from stock repurchases if the issuance of authorized but unissued shares under the plans would otherwise result in Lake Shore, MHC not owning a majority of our outstanding shares of common stock

The stock-based incentive plans will comply with all applicable regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision. The stock-based incentive plans cannot be established earlier than six months after the reorganization and offering and would require the approval of our stockholders by a majority of the votes of our outstanding shares of common stock eligible to be cast (excluding votes eligible to be cast by Lake Shore, MHC), unless we obtain a waiver from the Office of Thrift Supervision that would allow the approval of the stock-based incentive plans by our stockholders by a majority of voting shares (excluding shares voted by Lake Shore, MHC). Unless a waiver is obtained from the Office of Thrift Supervision, the following additional Office of Thrift Supervision restrictions would apply to our stock-based incentive plans:

Table of Contents

In the event the Office of Thrift Supervision changes its regulations or policies regarding stock-based incentive plans, including any regulations or policies restricting the size of awards and vesting of benefits as described above, the restrictions described above may not be applicable.

The following table summarizes the stock benefits that our officers, directors and employees may receive following the offering at the maximum of the offering range and assuming that we initially implement a stock option plan granting options to purchase 4.90% of the shares outstanding after the offering (including shares issued to The Lake Shore Charitable Foundation) and a management recognition plan awarding shares of common stock equal to 1.96% of the shares outstanding after the offering (including shares issued to The Lake Shore Charitable Foundation). In the table below, it is assumed that, at the maximum of the offering range, a total of 2,702,500 shares will be sold to the public and issued to the charitable foundation, and a total of 5,750,000 shares will be outstanding after the offering, including shares issued to Lake Shore, MHC and to the charitable foundation.

The value of the restricted shares of common stock will be based on the price of Lake Shore Bancorp’s common stock at the time those shares are awarded, which, subject to stockholder approval, cannot occur until at least six months after the completion of the reorganization and offering. The following table presents the total value of all restricted shares to be available for grant under the management recognition plan, assuming the shares for the plan are purchased or issued in a range of market prices from $8.00 per share to $14.00 per share.

The grant-date fair value of the options granted under the stock option plan will be based in part on the price of Lake Shore Bancorp’s common stock at the time the options are granted, which, subject to stockholder approval, cannot occur until at least six months after the completion of the reorganization and offering. The value will also depend on the various assumptions utilized in the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The following table presents the total estimated value of the options to be available for grant under the stock option plan, assuming the market price and exercise price for the stock options are equal and the range of market prices for the shares is $8.00 per share to $14.00 per share.

Our Issuance of Shares of Common Stock to the Charitable Foundation

To further our commitment to our local community, we intend to establish and fund a charitable foundation as part of the reorganization and offering. We will issue shares of our common stock, ranging from 85,000 shares at the minimum of the estimated valuation range to 115,000 shares at the maximum of the estimated valuation range, which shares will have a value of $850,000 at the minimum of the estimated valuation range and $1.15 million at the maximum of the estimated valuation range, based on the $10.00 per share offering price. As a result of the issuance of shares based on the $10.00 per share offering price, we will record an after-tax expense of $522,750 at the minimum of the valuation range and of $707,250 at the maximum of the valuation range, during the quarter in which the offering is completed. The charitable foundation will be dedicated exclusively to supporting charitable causes and community development activities in the communities in which we operate.

Issuing shares of common stock to the charitable foundation will:

Tax Consequences of the Offering

The offering will result in no taxable gain or loss to Lake Shore, MHC, Lake Shore Bancorp or Lake Shore Savings, or to depositors who have a priority right to subscribe for shares of common stock in the offering, or to our employees, officers, directors or members, except to the extent that the nontransferable subscription rights to purchase shares of common stock in the offering may be determined to have value. Thacher Proffitt & Wood LLP has opined, as to the United States federal income tax consequences, that it is more likely than not that the fair market value of such subscription rights is zero. In that case, there will be no taxable gain or loss to depositors who receive nontransferable subscription rights.

THE OFFERING

Persons Who Can Order Common Stock in the Offering

We have granted rights to subscribe for our shares of common stock in a “subscription offering” to the following persons in the following order of priority:

In the event that the above persons do not subscribe for all the shares of common stock being offered for sale, we may offer shares for sale in a community offering. Natural persons and trusts of natural persons who are residents of Chautauqua, Erie and Cattaraugus Counties, New York, will have a purchase preference in any community offering. Shares may also be offered to the general public. The community offering, if any, may begin concurrently with, during or immediately after the subscription offering. We also may offer shares of common stock not purchased in the subscription offering or the community offering through a syndicate of broker-dealers in what is referred to as a syndicated community offering. The syndicated community offering, if any, would be managed by Ryan Beck & Co., Inc. We have the right to accept or reject, in our sole discretion, any orders received in the community offering or the syndicated community offering.

If we receive subscriptions for more shares than are to be sold in this offering, we may be unable to fill or partially fill your order. Shares will be allocated first to categories in the subscription offering under a formula outlined in the plan of reorganization and as described in “The Reorganization and Offering.”

Minimum and Maximum Purchase Limitations

Our plan of reorganization establishes certain limitations on the purchase of common stock in the offering. These limitations include the following:

18

Table of Contents

All persons sharing a qualifying joint deposit account will be counted as a single depositor for purposes of determining the maximum amount that may be subscribed for by an individual, and, unless we determine otherwise, persons having the same address and persons exercising subscription rights through qualifying accounts registered to the same address will be subject to the overall purchase limitation.

A detailed discussion of the limitations on purchases of common stock by an individual and persons acting together is set forth under the caption “ The Offering—Limitations on Purchase of Shares .”

Subject to Office of Thrift Supervision approval, we may increase or decrease the purchase limitations in the offering at any time. Our tax-qualified benefit plans, including our employee stock ownership plan, are authorized to purchase up to 10% of the shares sold in the offering plus issued to the charitable foundation without regard to the above purchase limitations.

How to Purchase Shares of Common Stock

If you want to place an order for shares in the subscription or community offering, you must complete an original stock order form and send it to us together with full payment. Once we receive your order, you cannot cancel or change it. You may pay for shares in the subscription offering or the community offering in the following ways:

Checks and money orders received by Lake Shore Savings will be cashed immediately and placed in a segregated account at Lake Shore Savings or, or at our discretion at another insured depository institution. We will pay interest on your funds submitted by check or money order at the rate we pay on our passbook savings accounts, from the date we receive your funds until the offering is completed or terminated. All funds authorized for withdrawal from deposit accounts must be available in the account when the stock order form is received. Funds will remain in the accounts and continue to earn interest at the applicable account rate and will be withdrawn upon completion of the offering. A hold will be placed on those funds when your stock order is received, making the designated funds otherwise unavailable to you during the offering period. If, as a result of a withdrawal from a certificate account, the balance falls below the minimum balance requirement, the remaining funds will earn interest at our passbook savings rate. There will be no early withdrawal penalty for withdrawals from certificate accounts used to pay for common stock.

Federal law prohibits us from knowingly loaning funds to purchase shares in the offering. You may not submit a check drawn on a Lake Shore Savings line of credit. Additionally, cash, wire transfers and third party checks may not be remitted. You may submit your stock order form by mail using the return envelope provided, by overnight courier to the indicated address on the stock order form, or by bringing your stock order form to our Stock Information Center, located at our administrative office (not our main banking office in Dunkirk). The Stock Information Center is located at 31 East Fourth Street, Dunkirk, New York. Stock order forms may not be delivered to our main banking office in Dunkirk or to any Lake Shore Savings branches.

After we receive an order, the order cannot be revoked or changed, except with our consent. We are not required to accept copies or facsimiles of stock order forms.

For a further discussion regarding the stock ordering procedures, see “ The Reorganization and Offering – Procedure for Purchasing Shares in the Subscription and Community Offerings .”

Using Individual Retirement Account Funds

You may not authorize direct withdrawal from a Lake Shore Savings individual retirement account. If you wish to use funds in your Lake Shore Savings individual retirement account to pay for shares of our common stock, please be aware that federal law requires that such funds first be transferred to a self-directed retirement account with a trustee other than Lake Shore Savings. The transfer of such funds to a new trustee takes time. If you would like to use your individual retirement account funds held at Lake Shore Savings or elsewhere, we recommend that you contact our Stock Information Center promptly, preferably at least two weeks before the                      , 2006 offering expiration date, for assistance. We cannot guarantee that you will be able to use retirement funds held at Lake Shore Savings or elsewhere, for this purchase. Your ability to use these retirement funds may depend on time constraints and, possibly, limitations imposed by the individual retirement account trustee.

Subscription Rights are Not Transferable

Pursuant to federal law, you are not permitted to transfer or sell your subscription rights and we will act to ensure that you do not do so. We will not accept any stock orders that we believe involve the transfer of subscription rights. For a further discussion of subscription rights, see “ The Reorganization and Offering – Subscription Offering and Subscription Rights .”

Deadline for Orders of Common Stock

If you wish to purchase shares of common stock, your properly completed and signed stock order form, together with payment for the shares, must be received (not postmarked) no later than              a.m., Eastern Time, on                      , unless we extend this deadline.

Delivery of Prospectus

To ensure that you receive a prospectus at least 48 hours before                      , 2006, we may not mail prospectuses any later than five days before such date, or hand-deliver any prospectuses later than two days before that date. Stock order forms may only be distributed with or preceded by a prospectus.

Once Submitted, Your Purchase Order May Not Be Revoked Unless the Offering is Terminated or Extended Beyond [                      ] or We Amend the Offering Range Below 1,912,500 Shares or Above 2,975,625 Shares.

The Office of Thrift Supervision approved the offering on                      , 2006; however, because completion of the offering will be subject to an update of the independent appraisal, among other factors, there may be one or more delays in the completion of the offering. Any orders that you submit to purchase shares of our common stock in the offering are irrevocable, and you will not have access to subscription funds unless the offering is terminated, or extended beyond [                      ] or we amend the offering range as described above.

Expiration of the Offering

The subscription offering will expire at 11:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on                      . The community offering, if any, is expected to terminate at the same time. We may extend this expiration date without notice to you, until [extension date], unless the Office of Thrift Supervision approves a later date. If the offering extends beyond                      , we will be required to resolicit subscribers allowing them an opportunity to modify, cancel or maintain their stock orders, before proceeding with the offering. Unless we receive an affirmative response from an investor in a designated period of time, all funds delivered to us to purchase shares of common stock in the offering will be returned promptly to the subscriber, with interest at Lake Shore Savings’ passbook savings rate, and deposit account withdrawal authorizations will be cancelled. In no event may we extend the offering beyond                      .

Steps We May Take If We Do Not Receive Orders for at Least the Minimum Number of Shares

If we do not receive orders for at least 1,912,500 shares of common stock in the subscription offering, we may take several steps in order to sell the minimum number of shares of common stock in the offering range.

Specifically, we may do one or a combination of the following:

Alternatively, we may terminate the offering, returning subscription funds with interest and canceling deposit account withdrawal authorizations.

Delivery of Stock Certificates

Certificates representing shares of common stock sold in the offering will be mailed to the persons entitled to the certificates at the certificate registration address noted by them on the stock order form as soon as practicable following consummation of the offering and receipt of all regulatory approvals. It is possible that, until certificates for the common stock are delivered to purchasers, purchasers might not be able to sell the shares of common stock which they ordered, even though the common stock will have begun trading.

Market for Common Stock

We have applied to have our common stock quoted on the Nasdaq National Market under the trading symbol “LSBK.” Ryan Beck & Co., Inc. currently intends to become a market maker in our common stock, but is under no obligation to do so, and will assist us in obtaining additional market makers. After shares of the common stock begin trading, you may contact a firm offering investment services in order to buy or sell shares.

Table of Contents

We may use the portion of the net proceeds that we do not contribute to Lake Shore Savings to, among other things, invest in securities, pay cash dividends or repurchase shares of common stock, subject to regulatory restrictions or for other general corporate purposes. Lake Shore Savings may use the portion of the proceeds that it receives to fund new loans, open or acquire new branches, invest in securities, expand its business activities or for other general corporate purposes. We may also use the proceeds of the offering to diversify our business and acquire other companies, although we have no such specific plans this time.

Due to the difficult economic environment in our market area, it may take a significant amount of time for us to deploy the offering proceeds to our best advantage. For example, due to intense competition and market rates, our borrower demand may be limited. We plan to initially apply the net proceeds we receive from the offering to qualified investments in accordance with our investment policy. It is expected that the investments will include asset-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, and mortgage-back securities with terms that will range from one to four years in average lives and maturities up to ten years.

Directors and Executive Officers Intend to Subscribe for 89,600 Shares

Our directors and executive officers, together with their associates, are expected to subscribe for 89,600 shares, which represents 3.8% of the shares that would be sold in the offering and 1.8% of the total shares to be outstanding at the midpoint of the offering range, plus shares issued to our charitable foundation. Directors and executive officers will pay $10.00 per share, as will everyone else who purchases shares in the offering.
