                           CNY FINANCIAL CORPORATION
 
                             Prospectus Supplement
 
    PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT.  This supplements the Prospectus of CNY Financial
Corporation (the 'Company') dated August 12, 1998. All capitalized terms used in
this Supplement have the meanings given to them in the Prospectus. This
Supplement should be read with the Prospectus.
 
    INCREASE IN MAXIMUM PURCHASE LIMIT.  The Subscription Offering of the
Company expired on September 16, 1998 and less than the $52,062,500 of
subscriptions, which is the minimum of the Valuation Range, have been received.
The Company has increased the maximum purchase limit so that the new maximum
purchase limit for any person, related persons and persons acting together is
$300,000. Persons who submitted orders for $150,000 of Common Stock are being
given an opportunity to increase their orders by up to an additional $150,000.
In order to do so, they must submit a revised order form with payment in full by
12:00 noon, New York Time, on September 24, 1998. Payment must be by certified
or bank check or by authorization of withdrawal from an account at Cortland
Savings Bank with sufficient collected funds.
 
    CONTINUED OFFERING OF COMMON STOCK.  CNY Financial Corporation is now
conducting a direct Community Offering (See 'Community Offering' at page 44 of
the Prospectus). CNY Financial Corporation may offer, in a Syndicated Community
Offering, all or a portion of the Common Stock for which orders have not been
received in the Subscription Offering or the Community Offering. The Company
anticipates that it will pay a 4.5% fee for Common Stock sold in a Syndicated
Community Offering. See 'Syndicated Community Offering' at page 44 of the
Prospectus. Persons desiring to submit orders for Common Stock in the Community
Offering must pay for their orders by certified or bank check. All other
conditions and limitations applicable to the orders for Common Stock described
in the Prospectus remain in effect.
 
    ADDITIONAL OFFERING PERIOD.  Orders are now being accepted in the Community
Offering. No expiration date has been set for the Community Offering; however,
the Community Offering may be terminated at any time without notice. If the
Conversion is not completed by October 31, 1998, the FDIC and the Superintendent
may agree to an extension but persons who have submitted purchase orders will be
given an opportunity to maintain, increase, reduce or cancel their
subscriptions.
 
    PRO FORMA EFFECT OF SYNDICATED COMMUNITY OFFERING.  A 4.5% fee in a
Syndicated Community Offering would decrease net proceeds by $45,000 for each
$1.0 million of Common Stock sold in the Syndicated Community Offering. If all
other assumptions used in preparing the Pro Forma Data in the Prospectus (see
pages 31 to 34 of the Prospectus) remain substantially the same, then, at March
31, 1998 and at the minimum of the Valuation Range, a decrease in net proceeds
by $45,000 would result in a decrease in pro forma book value per share of
approximately $0.01 and would increase the offering price as a percentage of pro
forma book value per share to approximately 70.17% from approximately 70.13%.
Pro forma net income per share for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 would be
reduced by less than one-tenth of one cent per share for each $45,000 of
additional expenses.
 
          The date of this Prospectus Supplement is September 21, 1998

ITEM 14.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
 
    In accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware
(being Chapter 1 of Title 8 of the Delaware Code), Articles 11 and 12 of the
Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation provide as follows:
 
                                 ARTICLE ELEVEN
                                INDEMNIFICATION
 
    A.  Each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a
party to or is otherwise involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a "proceeding"),
by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a Director or an Officer of the
Corporation or, while a Director or Officer of the Corporation, is or was
serving at the request of the Corporation as a Director, Officer, employee or
agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan
(hereinafter an "indemnitee"), whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged
action in an official capacity or in any other capacity while serving shall be
indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent
authorized by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as the same
exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only
to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader
indemnification rights than such law permitted the Corporation to provide
 
                                      II-1
<PAGE>
prior to such amendment), against all expense, liability and loss (including
attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, excise taxes or penalties under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and amounts paid in
settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such indemnitee in connection
therewith; provided, however, that, except as provided in Section C of this
Article the Corporation shall indemnify any such indemnitee in connection with a
proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such indemnitee only if such
proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of Directors of the
Corporation.
 
    B.  The right to indemnification conferred in Section A of this Article
shall include the right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses incurred in
defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition (hereinafter
an "advancement of expenses"); provided, however, that, if the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware requires, an advancement of expenses
incurred by an indemnitee in his or her capacity as a Director or Officer (and
not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such
indemnitee, including, without limitation, services to an employee benefit plan)
shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking
(hereinafter an "undertaking"), by or on behalf of such indemnitee, to repay all
amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial
decision from which there is no further right to appeal (hereinafter a "final
adjudication") that such indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified for such
expenses under this Section or otherwise. The rights to indemnification and to
the advancement of expenses conferred in Sections A and B of this Article shall
be contract rights and such rights shall continue as to an indemnitee who has
ceased to be a Director, Officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the
benefit of the indemnitee's heirs, executors and administrators.
 
    C.  If a claim under Section A or B of this Article is not paid in full by
the Corporation within sixty days after a written claim has been received by the
Corporation, except in the case of a claim for an advancement of expenses, in
which case the applicable period shall be twenty days, the indemnitee may at any
time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation to recover the unpaid amount
of the claim. If successful in whole or in part in any such suit, or in a suit
brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the
terms of an undertaking, the indemnitee shall be entitled to be paid also the
expenses of prosecuting or defending such suit. In (i) any suit brought by the
indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification hereunder (but not in a suit
brought by the indemnitee to enforce a right to an advancement of expenses) it
shall be a defense that, and (ii) in any suit by the Corporation to recover an
advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking the Corporation
shall be entitled to recover such expenses upon a final adjudication that, the
indemnitee has not met any applicable standard for indemnification set forth in
the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. Neither the failure of the
Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its
stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such
suit that indemnification of the indemnitee is proper in the circumstances
because the indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in
the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, nor an actual
determination by the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent
legal counsel, or its stockholders) that the indemnitee has not met such
applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that the indemnitee
has not met the applicable standard of conduct or, in the case of such a suit
brought by the indemnitee, be a defense to such suit. In any suit brought by the
indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification or to an advancement of
expenses hereunder, or by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses
pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the burden of proving that the
indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified, or to such advancement of
expenses, under this Article or otherwise shall be on the Corporation.
 
    D.  The rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses
conferred in this Article shall not be exclusive of any other right which any
person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, the Corporation's
Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or
Disinterested Directors or otherwise.
 
                                      II-2
<PAGE>
    E.  The Corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect
itself and any Director, Officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or
subsidiary or Affiliate or another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not
the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such
expense, liability or loss under the General Corporation Law of the State of
Delaware.
 
    F.  To the extent that any person who is or was or has agreed to become a
Director or officer of the Corporation is made a witness to any action, suit or
proceeding to which he or she is not a party by reason of the fact that he or
she was, is or has agreed to become a Director or Officer of the Corporation,
or, while a Director or Officer of the Corporation, is or was serving or has
agreed to serve as a Director, Officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, at the
request of the Corporation, such person shall be indemnified against all costs,
charges and expenses actually and reasonable incurred by such person or on such
person(1)s behalf in connection therewith. To the extent that any person who is
or was or has agreed to become an employee or agent of the Corporation is made a
witness to any action, suit or proceeding to which he or she is not a party by
reason of the fact that he or she was, is or has agreed to become an employee or
agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving or has agreed to serve as a
Director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise, at the request of the Corporation, such
person may be indemnified against all costs, charges and expenses actually and
reasonable incurred by such person or on such person's behalf in connection
therewith.
 
    G.  The Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the
Board of Directors, grant rights to indemnification and to the advancement of
expenses to any employee or agent of the Corporation to the fullest extent of
the provisions of this Article with respect to the indemnification and
advancement of expenses of Directors and Officers of the Corporation.
 
    H.  If this Article or any portion shall be invalidated on any ground by any
court of competent jurisdiction, the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify
each Director or Officer, and may indemnify each employee or agent, of the
Corporation as to any costs, charges, expenses (including attorneys' fees and
expenses), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement with respect to any
action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative (including an action by or in the right of the Corporation), to
the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Article that shall
not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
 
                                 ARTICLE TWELVE
                             LIABILITY OF DIRECTORS
 
    A Director of this Corporation shall not be personally liable to the
Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary
duty as a Director, except for liability: (i) for any breach of the Director's
duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders; (ii) for acts or
omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing
violation of law; (iii) under Section 174 of the General Corporation Law of the
State of Delaware; or (iv) for any transaction from which the Director derived
an improper personal benefit. If the General Corporation Law of the State of
Delaware is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or
limiting the personal liability of Directors, then the liability of a Director
of the Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent
permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as so
amended. Any repeal or modification of the foregoing paragraph by the
stockholders of the Corporation shall not adversely affect any right or
protection of a Director of the Corporation existing at the time of such repeal
or modification.

    The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
 
        (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made,
    a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
 
           (i) To include any Prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
       Securities Act of 1933;
 
                                      II-4
<PAGE>
           (ii) To reflect in the Prospectus any facts or events arising after
       the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent
       post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
       aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in
       the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase
       or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of
       securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any
       deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering
       range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the
       Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in
       volume and price represent no more than a 20% change int he maximum
       aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration
       Fee" table in the effective Registration Statement;
 
           (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
       distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or
       any change to such information in the Registration Statement;
 
        (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
    Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed
    to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered
    therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to
    be the initial bona fide offering thereof;
 
        (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
    any of the securities registered which remain unsold at the termination of
    the Offering.
 
    The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the agent at the
closing specified in the Agency Agreement, certificates in such denominations
and registered in such names as required by the agent to permit prompt delivery
to each purchaser.
 
    Insofar as indemnification by the Registrant for liabilities arising under
the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or
otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities
and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event
that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the
payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense in connection
with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion
of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a
court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by
it is against public policy as expressed in the securities Act and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
