DEREGISTRATION OF UNSOLD SECURITIES

This Post-Effective Amendment No.  1 to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed on June 19, 2018 (File No. 333-225720) and is being filed for the sole purpose of removing from registration any unsold shares of the Registrant’s common stock that may have been issuable pursuant to the Cambridge Bancorp 2017 Equity and Cash Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”) and the Cambridge Bancorp Amended 1993 Stock Option Plan (the “1993 Plan”).

On July 12, 2024, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of September 19, 2023, by and among the Registrant, Cambridge Trust Company, Eastern Bankshares, Inc., Eastern Bank and Citadel MS 2023, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), the Registrant merged with and into Merger Sub, with the Registrant as the surviving entity (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, the Registrant has terminated any and all offerings of its securities pursuant to the 2017 Plan and the 1993 Plan, and no shares of the Registrant’s common stock are reserved for future issuance under the 2017 Plan or the 1993 Plan.

In accordance with the undertakings made by the Registrant in the foregoing registration statements to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any of the securities that had been registered for issuance that remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Registrant hereby removes from registration all of such securities registered with respect to the 2017 Plan and the 1993 Plan, which remain unsold and unissued under the foregoing registration statements in connection therewith as of the date hereof.
