National Bank announced that effective September 1, 2020, Timothy P. Nightingale will become Executive

culminating in his new position on the executive team.
"Tim and Ryan have been instrumental to the success and growth

dedicated careers at Camden National Bank, seeking opportunities to
grow professionally and better serve clients, fellow employees,
local communities, and our shareholders."
Nightingale, who will be leading credit and underwriting,
special assets, and commercial administration in his new role,
first joined as Regional Vice President of UnitedKingfield Bank, a
wholly owned subsidiary of Camden National Corporation. In 2001, he
was named Senior Lending Officer and was promoted to Senior Vice
President in 2003. In September 2006,
when UnitedKingfield Bank merged into Camden National Bank,
Nightingale became Senior Vice President, Senior Lending Officer.

Nightingale currently serves on the board of directors for the

well as the Economic Growth Council of Maine, both of which are gubernatorial
appointments. He is a former gubernatorial appointee and served for
seven years on the board of Maine Technology Institute.
Smith brings more than 25 years of banking and finance
experience—including extensive knowledge of commercial lending,
business banking, and treasury management services—to his new role
on the executive team. In 2012, Smith joined Camden National Bank
to lead commercial banking efforts in central and southern
Maine. He soon took on the added
responsibility of leading the treasury management group, and he was
named Camden National Bank's Officer of the Year in 2014. He grew
the treasury management line of business through 2015, when he
became Director of Commercial Banking for central and midcoast
Maine. In 2019, he was promoted to
Senior Vice President, Director of Credit Administration.
Originally from Maine, Smith
currently resides in Auburn with
his family. He is actively involved in the local community as a

Director and Past President of the Maine Building Materials
Exchange. Smith is a member of the Commercial Lending Committee for
the Maine Bankers Association. He has his Bachelors of Science in
Finance from the University of
Maine.
"We look forward to the next chapter of Tim and Ryan's service
on our executive management team," continued Dufour. "They will
work closely to build upon our strong foundation in commercial
banking."
