Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4(a) of this Agreement,
the Executive may terminate his employment under this Agreement for Good
Reason. As used in this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean any of the following:


 


	
  (i)

  	
  any reduction in the
  Executive’s Annual Base Salary, as in effect on the date this Agreement is

  any removal of the
  Executive from any of the positions indicated in Section 2 of this
  Agreement, other than for a promotion except as a result of his regulatory
  removal and/or in connection with termination of the Executive’s employment
  for Cause.

  



 


If Executive terminates
his employment for Good Reason, then he may give notice of intention to collect
benefits under this Agreement by delivering a notice in writing (the “Notice of
Termination”) and Corporation shall pay Executive an amount equal to one (1)
times the Executive’s Annual Base Salary as defined in Section 5(a) of
this Agreement, which amount shall be payable in twelve (12) equal monthly
installments and shall be subject to federal, state and local tax
withholdings.  In addition, Executive
shall receive a continuation, for a period of twelve (12) months from the date
of termination of employment, or until Executive secures substantially similar
benefits through other employment, whichever shall first occur, of all health,
accident, life and disability insurance benefits in effect with respect to
Executive on the date of termination of employment and that were in effect
during the two (2) years prior to Executive’s termination of employment, or, if
Corporation cannot provide such benefits because Executive is no longer an
employee, a dollar amount equal to the cost to Executive of obtaining such
benefits or substantially similar benefits. 
Executive only becomes entitled to receive these payments and
continuation of benefits if he executes a General Release in favor of
Corporation, Bank and their subsidiaries and affiliates.  However, in the event the payments described
herein, when added to all other amounts or benefits provided to or on behalf of
the Executive in connection with his termination of employment, would result in
the imposition of an excise tax under Code Section 4999, such payments
shall be retroactively (if necessary) reduced to the extent necessary to avoid
such excise tax imposition.  Upon
written notice to Executive, together with calculations of Corporation’s
independent auditors, Executive shall remit to Corporation the amount of the
reduction, plus such interest as may be necessary to avoid the 


 

















 


imposition of such
excise tax.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing or any other provision of this contract to the contrary, if any
portion of the amount herein payable to the Executive is determined to be
non-deductible pursuant to the regulations promulgated under Section 280G
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), then Corporation
shall be required only to pay to Executive the amount determined to be
deductible under Section 280G.


 


(e)                                  Disability. 
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4(a) of this Agreement,
if, as a result of physical or mental injury or impairment, Executive is unable
to perform all of the essential job functions of his position on a full time
basis, taking into account any reasonable accommodation required by law, and
without posing a direct threat to himself and others, for a period up to one
hundred eighty (180) days, all obligations of Corporation, Bank and Services
Company to pay Executive an Annual Base Salary as set forth in Paragraph 5(a)
of this Agreement are suspended.  Any
paid time off, sick leave, or short term disability pay Executive may be
entitled to receive, pursuant to an established disability plan or program of
the Services Company and/or Bank and/or Corporation, if any exists, shall be
considered part of the compensation Executive shall receive while disabled, and
shall not be in addition to the compensation received by Executive under this
provision of the Agreement.  Executive
further agrees that should he remain unable to perform all of the essential
functions of his position on a full time basis, taking into account any
reasonable accommodation required by law, and without posing a direct threat to
himself or others, after one hundred eighty (180) days, the Services Company,
Bank and Corporation will suffer an undue hardship by continuing Executive in
his position.  Upon this event, all
compensation and employment obligations of the Services Company, Bank and
Corporation under this Agreement shall cease (except Executive’s rights under
the Corporation’s then existing short term and/or long term disability plans,
if any), and this Agreement shall terminate.


 


(f)                                    Death. 
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4(a) of this Agreement,
this Agreement shall terminate automatically upon Executive’s death and
Executive’s rights under this Agreement shall cease as of the date of such
termination.


 


5.             Employment Period
Compensation.


 


(a)                                  Annual Base Salary. 
For services performed by Executive under this Agreement, Corporation
shall pay Executive an Annual Base Salary in the aggregate during the
Employment Period at the rate of One Hundred Ten Thousand dollars ($110,000)
per year, payable at the same times as salaries are payable to other executive
employees of Corporation.  Corporation
may, from time to time, increase Executive’s Annual Base Salary, and any and
all such increases shall be deemed to constitute amendments to this
Section 5(a) to reflect the increased amounts, effective as of the date
established for such increases by the Board of Directors of Corporation or any
committee of such Board in the resolutions authorizing such increases.


 


(b)                                 Bonus. 
Executive may be eligible for incentive compensation under the terms and
conditions of any incentive compensation plan that Corporation may have in
effect from time to time.


 

















 


(c)                                  Vacations. 
During the term of this Agreement, Executive shall be entitled to paid
annual vacation in accordance with the policies as established from time to
time by the Board of Directors of Corporation, Bank and Services Company.  However, Executive shall not be entitled to
receive any additional compensation from Corporation for failure to take a
vacation, nor shall Executive be able to accumulate unused vacation time from one
year to the next, except to the extent authorized by the Board of Directors of
Corporation.


 


(d)                                 Employee Benefit Plans. 
During the term of this Agreement, Executive shall be entitled to
participate in and receive the benefits of any Employee Benefit Plan currently
in effect at Corporation, until such time that the Board of Directors of
Corporation authorizes a change in such benefits.  Executive shall also be entitled to participate in any stock
option and profit sharing plans that Corporation may have in effect, subject to
the terms and conditions of those plans. 
Nothing paid to Executive under any plan or arrangement presently in
effect or made available in the future shall be deemed to be in lieu of the
salary payable to Executive pursuant to Section 5(a) hereof.


 


(e)                                  Business Expenses. 
During the term of this Agreement, Executive shall be entitled to
receive prompt reimbursement for all reasonable expenses incurred by him, which
are properly accounted for, in accordance with the policies and procedures
established by the Board of Directors of Corporation for its executive
officers.


 


6.             Termination of
Employment Following Change in Control.


 


(a)                                  If a Change in Control (as defined

months following the Change in Control (as defined in Section 6(b) of this
Agreement), Executive’s employment is involuntarily terminated (other than for
the Cause as defined in Section 4(b) of this Agreement), then, Executive

would be required to be reported in response to Item 6(e) of Schedule 14A
of Regulation 14A or any successor rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”); provided that, without
limiting the foregoing, a Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred
if:


 


(i)                                     (A) the Corporation and/or Bank
shall be merged or consolidated, or (B) substantially all of the assets of
Corporation and/or Bank shall be sold, exchanged, transferred or otherwise
disposed of, and, as a result of such merger, consolidation, sale, exchange or
transfer, less than a majority of the outstanding voting stock of the

of the 


 

















 


Board of Directors of
Corporation who are not interested in the transaction and (z) a majority of the
members of the Board of Directors of the legal entity resulting from, or

entity’s parent corporation, if any, are former members of the Board of
Directors of Corporation, or


 


(ii)                                  any “person” or group of “persons”

consecutive years during the term of Executive’s employment under this
Agreement, individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board
of Directors of Corporation cease for any reason to constitute at least a
majority thereof, unless the election of each director who was not a director
at the beginning of such period has been approved in advance by directors
representing at least two-thirds of the directors then in office who were
directors at the beginning of the period.


 


7.                                       Rights in Event of
Termination of Employment Following Change in Control.


 


(a)                                  In the event that a Change in
Control occurs and Executive delivers a Notice of Termination (as defined in
Section 6(a) of this Agreement) to Corporation, Bank and Services Company,
Executive shall be entitled to receive the compensation and benefits set forth
below:


 


(i)                                     a lump sum equal to two (2) times
the Executive’s Annual Base Salary as defined in Section 5(a), which
amount shall be subject to federal, state and local tax withholdings; and


 


(ii)                                  for a period of two (2) years from
the date of termination of employment, or until Executive secures substantially
similar benefits through other employment, whichever shall first occur,
Executive shall receive a continuation of all health, accident, life and
disability insurance benefits in effect with respect to Executive during the
two (2) years prior to his termination of employment, or, if Corporation cannot
provide such benefits because Executive is no longer an employee, a dollar
amount equal to the cost to Executive of obtaining such benefits or
substantially similar benefits.


 


However, in the event
the payment described herein, when added to all other amounts or benefits
provided to or on behalf of the Executive in connection with his termination of
employment, would result in the imposition of an excise tax under Code
Section 4999, such payments shall be retroactively (if  necessary) reduced to the extent necessary
to avoid such excise tax imposition. 
Upon written notice to Executive, together with calculations of
Corporation’s independent auditors, Executive shall remit to Corporation the
amount of the reduction plus such interest as 


 

















 


may be necessary to
avoid the imposition of such excise tax. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this contract to
the contrary, if any portion of the amount herein payable to the Executive is
determined to be non-deductible pursuant to the regulations promulgated under
Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
“Code”), the Corporation shall be required only to pay to Executive the amount
determined to be deductible under Section 280G.


 


(b)                                 Executive shall not be required to
mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in this Section 7 by
seeking other employment or otherwise. 
The amount of payment provided for in this Section 7(a)(i) shall
not be reduced by any compensation earned by Executive as the result of
employment by another employer or by reason of Executive’s receipt of or right
to receive any retirement or other benefits after the date of termination of
employment or otherwise.


 


8.             Rights in Event of
Termination of Employment Absent Change in Control.


 


(a)                                  In the event that Executive’s
employment is involuntarily terminated by 
Corporation without Cause and no Change in Control shall have occurred
at the date of such termination, Corporation shall pay Executive an amount
equal to and no greater than two (2) times the Executive’s Annual Base Salary
as defined in Section 5(a) of this Agreement, which amount shall be
payable in twenty-four (24) equal monthly installments.  In addition, Executive shall be entitled to
a continuation of health, accident, life and disability insurance benefits for
twenty-four (24) months or until Executive secures substantially similar
benefits through other employment, whichever shall first occur.  However, if the payment described herein,
when added to all other amounts or benefits provided  to  or  on 
behalf  of  the 
Executive in connection with his termination of employment, would result
in the imposition of an excise tax under Code Section 4999, such payments
shall be retroactively (if necessary) reduced to the extent necessary to avoid
such imposition.  Upon written notice to
Executive, together with calculations of Corporation’s independent auditors, Executive
shall remit to Corporation the amount of the reduction plus such interest as
may be necessary to avoid the imposition of such excise tax.  Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other
provision of this contract to the contrary, if any portion of the amount herein
payable to the Executive is determined to be non-deductible pursuant to the
regulations promulgated under Section 280G of the Code, then Corporation
shall be required only to pay to Executive the amount determined to be
deductible under Section 280G.


 


(b)                                 Executive shall not be required to
mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in this Section 8 by
seeking other employment or otherwise. 
The amount of payment provided for in this Section 8 (not continuation
of benefits) shall not be reduced by any compensation earned by Executive as
the result of employment by another employer or by reason of Executive’s
receipt of or right to receive any retirement or other benefits after the date
of termination of employment or otherwise.


 


(c)                                  The amounts payable pursuant to this
Section 8 shall constitute Executive’s sole and exclusive remedy in the
event of involuntary termination without cause of Executive’s employment by
Corporation in the absence of a Change in Control.

(iii)                               directly or indirectly contact,
solicit or induce any person, corporation or other entity who or which is a
customer or referral source of Corporation, Bank, Services Company or any of
their subsidiaries or affiliates, during the term of Executive’s employment or
on the date of termination of Executive’s employment; or


 


(iv)                              directly or indirectly solicit,
induce or encourage any employee of Corporation, Bank, Services Company or any
of their subsidiaries or affiliates, who is employed during the term of
Executive’s employment or on the date of termination of Executive’s employment,
to leave the employ of Corporation, Bank, Services Company or any of their
subsidiaries or affiliates, or to seek, obtain or accept employment with any
person or entity other than Corporation, Bank, Services Company or any of their
subsidiaries or affiliates.


 


(b)                                 It is expressly understood and
agreed that, although Executive, Corporation, Bank and Services Company
consider the restrictions contained in Section 9(a) reasonable for the
purpose of preserving for Corporation, Bank, Services Company and any of their
subsidiaries or affiliates, their good will and other proprietary rights, if a
final judicial determination is made, by a court or arbitration panel having
jurisdiction, that the time or territory or any other restriction contained in
Section 9(a) is an unreasonable or otherwise unenforceable restriction
against Executive, the provisions of Section 9(a) shall not be rendered
void, but shall be deemed amended to apply as to such maximum time and
territory and to such other extent as such court may judicially determine or
indicate to be reasonable.


 

















 


(c)                                  The provisions of this
Section 9 shall be applicable, commencing on the date of this Agreement
and ending on one of the following dates, as applicable:


 


(i)                                     if Executive voluntarily terminates
his employment without Good Reason, the first anniversary date of the effective
date of termination of employment;


 


(ii)                                  if Executive’s employment terminates
in accordance with the provisions of Section 4(b) of this Agreement
(relating to termination for Cause) or the Executive voluntarily terminates his
employment in accordance with the provisions of Section 4(c) of this
Agreement (relating to termination by Executive for Good Reason), the first
anniversary date of the effective date of termination of employment;


 


(iii)                               if the Executive’s employment is
involuntarily terminated in accordance with the provisions of Section 6 of
this Agreement (relating to involuntary termination without Cause following a
Change in Control), the second anniversary date of the effective date of
termination of employment;


 


(iv)                              if the Executive’s employment is
involuntarily terminated in accordance with the provisions of Section 8 of
this Agreement (relating to involuntary termination without Cause absent a
Change in Control), the second anniversary date of the effective date of
termination of employment;


 


(v)                                 if Executive’s employment terminates
in accordance with the provisions of Section 4(a) relating to non-renewal
of contract, the effective date of termination of employment.


 


10.                                 Unauthorized
Disclosure.  During the term of his employment hereunder,
or at any later time, the Executive shall not, without the written consent of
the Board of Directors of Corporation or a person authorized thereby, knowingly
disclose to any person, other than an employee of the Corporation or a person
to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary or appropriate in connection with
the performance by the Executive of his duties as an executive of Corporation,
any material confidential information obtained by him while in the employ of
Corporation with respect to any of the services, products, improvements,
formulas, designs or styles, processes, customers, customer lists, methods of
business or any business practices of Corporation, Bank, Services Company or
any of their subsidiaries or affiliates, the disclosure of which could be or
will be damaging to Corporation, Bank, Services Company or any of their
subsidiaries or affiliates; provided, however, that confidential information
shall not include any information known generally to the public (other than as
a result of unauthorized disclosure by the Executive or any person with the
assistance, consent or direction of the Executive) or any information of a type
not otherwise considered confidential by persons engaged in the same business
or a business similar to that conducted by Corporation, Bank, Services Company
or any of their subsidiaries or affiliates or any information that must be
disclosed as required by law.


 


11.                                 Work Made for Hire. 
Any work performed by the Executive under this Agreement should be
considered a “Work Made for Hire” as that phrase is defined by the U.S. patent
laws and shall be owned by and for the express benefit of 


 

















 


Corporation, Bank,
Services Company and their subsidiaries and affiliates.  In the event it should be established that
such work does not qualify as a Work Made for Hire, the Executive agrees to and
does hereby assign to Corporation, Bank, Services Company and their affiliates
and subsidiaries, all of his rights, title, and/or interest in such work
product, including, but not limited to, all copyrights, patents, trademarks,
and proprietary rights.


 


12.                                 Return of Company
Property and Documents.  The Executive agrees that, at the time of
termination of his employment, regardless of the reason for termination, he
will deliver to Corporation, Bank, Services Company and their subsidiaries and
affiliates, any and all company property, including, but not limited to,
automobiles, keys, security codes or passes, mobile telephones, pagers,
computers, devices, confidential information, records, data, notes, reports,
proposals, lists, correspondence, specifications, drawings, blueprints,
sketches, software programs, equipment, other documents or property, or
reproductions of any of the aforementioned items developed or obtained by the
Executive during the course of his employment.


 


13.                                 Resignation as
Director.  Executive agrees that in the event
that this Agreement or his employment under this Agreement is terminated,
Executive shall resign as a director of Corporation, Bank, Services Company or
any of their affiliates or subsidiaries, if he is then serving as a director of
any such entities.


 


14.                                 Liability Insurance. 
Corporation shall use its best efforts to obtain insurance coverage for
the Executive under an insurance policy covering officers and directors of
Corporation, Bank and Services Company against lawsuits, arbitrations or other
legal or regulatory proceedings; however, nothing herein shall be construed to
require Corporation to obtain such insurance, if the Board of Directors of the
Corporation determines that such coverage cannot be obtained at a reasonable
price.


 


15.                                 Indemnification. 
Corporation will indemnify the Executive as required by  Pennsylvania law  and as provided by the Articles and By-laws of Corporation, if
not prohibited by federal law, with respect to any threatened, pending or
completed legal or regulatory action, suit or proceeding brought against him by
reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of
Corporation or is or was serving at the request of Corporation as a director,
officer, employee or agent of another person or entity.

17.                                 Waiver. 
No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged
unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in writing and
signed by Executive and an executive officer specifically designated by the
Board of Directors of Corporation, Bank and Services Company.  No waiver by either party, at any time, of
any breach by the other party of, or compliance with, any condition or
provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed
a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at
any prior or subsequent time. 
Notwithstanding this Section 17, a promotion of Executive in
accordance with Section 2 of this Agreement shall not constitute a breach
of this Agreement or require an amendment in writing.


 


18.                                 Assignment. 
This Agreement shall not be assignable by any party, except by
Corporation to any successor in interest to its respective businesses.


 


19.                                 Entire Agreement. 
This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the parties relating to
the employment of Executive and supersedes any and all agreements, either oral
or in writing, between the parties with regard to the employment of Executive
by Corporation, including the Change of Control Agreement entered between
Executive, Corporation and Bank, dated April 19, 1999.


 


20.                                 Successors; Binding
Agreement.


 


(a)                                  Corporation, and Bank will require
any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation,
or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the businesses and/or assets of
Corporation and Bank to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in
the same manner and to the same extent that Corporation and Bank would be
required to perform it if no such succession had taken place.


 


(b)                                 This Agreement shall inure to the
benefit of and be enforceable by Executive’s personal or legal representatives,
executors, administrators, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees.  If Executive should die after a Notice of
Termination is delivered by Executive, or following termination of Executive’s
employment without Cause, and any amounts would be payable to Executive under
this Agreement if Executive had continued to live, all such amounts shall be
paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to Executive’s devisee,
legatee, or other designee, or, if there is no such designee, to Executive’s
estate.


 


21.                                 Arbitration.  
Corporation and Executive recognize that in the event a dispute should
arise between them concerning the interpretation or implementation of this
Agreement (except for any enforcement sought with respect to Sections 9,


 

















 


10, 11, or 12, which may
be litigated in court), lengthy and expensive litigation will not afford a
practical resolution of the issues within a reasonable period of time.  Consequently, each party agrees that all disputes,
disagreements and questions of interpretation concerning this Agreement are to
be submitted for resolution, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to the American
Arbitration Association (the “Association”) in accordance with the
Association’s National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes or other
applicable rules then in effect (“Rules”). 
Corporation or Executive may initiate an arbitration proceeding at any
time by giving notice to the other in accordance with the Rules.  Corporation and Executive may, as a matter
or right, mutually agree on the appointment of a particular arbitrator from the
Association’s pool.  The arbitrator
shall not be bound by the rules of evidence and procedure of the courts of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, but shall be bound by the substantive law applicable
to this Agreement.  The decision of the
arbitrator, absent fraud, duress, incompetence or gross and obvious error of
fact, shall be final and binding upon the parties and shall be enforceable in
courts of proper jurisdiction. 
Following written notice of a request for arbitration, Corporation, Bank
and Executive shall be entitled to an injunction restraining all further
proceedings in any pending or subsequently filed litigation concerning this
Agreement, except as otherwise provided herein or any enforcement sought with
respect to Sections 9, 10, 11, or 12.


 


22.                                 Attorney’s Fees and
Costs.  If any action at law or in equity is
necessary to enforce or interpret the terms of this Agreement, each party shall
bear his or its own attorney’s fees, costs, and expenses incurred in connection
with the litigation, unless mandated by statute.


 


23.                                 Validity. 
The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement
shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this
Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.


 


24.                                 Applicable Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the domestic, internal laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without
regard to its conflicts of laws principles.


 


25.                                 Headings. 
The section headings of this Agreement are for convenience only and
shall not control or affect the meaning or construction or limit the scope or
intent of any of the provisions of this Agreement.
