(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4(a) of this Agreement, all of Corporation, Bank and Services Corporation’s obligations under this Agreement shall terminate automatically upon Executive’s voluntary termination of employment.

(d) 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 her position on a full time basis, taking into account any reasonable accommodation required by law, and without posing a direct threat to herself and others, for a period up to one hundred eighty (180) days, all obligations of Corporation, Bank and Services Corporation to pay Executive the compensation as set forth in 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 Corporation, 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 she remain unable to perform all of the essential functions of her position on a full time basis, taking into account any reasonable accommodation required by law, and without posing a direct threat to herself or others, after one hundred eighty (180) days, the Services Corporation, Bank and Corporation will suffer an undue hardship by continuing Executive in her position. Upon this event, all compensation and employment obligations of the Services Corporation, 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.

(e) 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.

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 Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($125,000.00) 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 will be eligible for incentive compensation under the terms and conditions of an incentive compensation plan upon which Corporation, Bank, Services Corporation and Executive shall mutually agree.

(c) 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, pension and profit sharing plans that Corporation may have in effect, subject to the terms and conditions of those plans.

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

(e) Automobile. During the term of this Agreement, Executive shall be provided with use of an automobile or reimbursed for automobile expenses in accordance with the terms of the automobile program in effect at Services Corporation at the time that this Agreement was executed.

6. Rights in Event of Termination of Employment.

(a) If Corporation terminates Executive’s employment under this Agreement without cause, then Executive shall receive her Annual Base Salary for the remainder of the Employment Period under this Agreement. The Annual Base Salary will be paid to Executive in substantially equal installments on regular paydays for Services Corporation. The amounts payable pursuant to this Section 6 shall constitute Executive’s sole and exclusive remedy in the

event of involuntary termination, without cause, of Executive’s employment by Corporation.

(b) In the event that Executive voluntarily terminates her employment all of Executive’s rights under this Agreement shall cease as of the effective date of termination and all of Corporation, Bank and Services Corporation’s compensation and employment obligations under this Agreement shall terminate.

7. Restrictive Covenant.

(a) Executive hereby acknowledges and recognizes the highly competitive nature of the business of Corporation, Bank and Services Corporation and, accordingly, agrees that, beginning on the date first mentioned above and continuing until the second anniversary date of the effective date of termination of Executive’s employment with Corporation, Bank and Services Corporation, Executive shall not:

(i) except for Corporation, Bank, Services Corporation or their subsidiaries or affiliates, be engaged, directly or indirectly, either for her own account or as agent, consultant, employee, partner, officer, director, proprietor, investor (except as an investor owning less than 5% of the stock of a publicly owned company) or otherwise of any person, firm, corporation or enterprise engaged in (1) the equipment and/or automobile leasing industries or (2) any other activity in which Services Corporation or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates are engaged during the Employment Period, in any county in which, at any time during the Employment Period or on the date of termination of the Executive’s employment, a branch, office or other facility of Services Corporation or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates is located, or in any county contiguous to such a county, including contiguous counties located outside of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (the “Non-Competition Area”); or

(ii) provide financial or other assistance to any person, firm, corporation, or enterprise engaged in (1) the equipment and/or automobile leasing industry or (2) any other activity in which Services Corporation or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates are engaged during the Employment Period in the Non-Competition Area; or

(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 Corporation or any of their subsidiaries or affiliates, during the term of Executive’s employment or on the date of termination of Executive’s employment to be a customer or referral source of any person or entity other than Corporation, Bank, Services Corporation or their subsidiaries or affiliates; or

(iv) directly or indirectly solicit, induce or encourage any employee of Corporation, Bank, Services Corporation 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 Corporation or their subsidiaries or affiliates, or to seek, obtain or accept employment with any person or entity other than Corporation, Bank, Services Corporation or their subsidiaries or affiliates.

(b) It is expressly understood and agreed that, although Executive, Corporation, Bank and Services Corporation consider the restrictions contained in Section 7(a) reasonable for the purpose of preserving for Corporation, Bank, Services Corporation and 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 7(a) is an unreasonable or otherwise unenforceable restriction against Executive, the provisions of Section 7(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) It is expressly understood and agreed that in the event of a material breach of any provision in this Section 7, and in addition to any other legal or equitable remedy the Corporation may have, the Corporation shall be entitled to the entry of a preliminary and permanent injunction (including, without limitation, specific performance by a court of competent jurisdiction in Pennsylvania, or elsewhere) to restrain the violation or breach thereof by Executive, and Executive submits to the jurisdiction of such court in any such action.

(d) It is expressly understood and agreed that if the Executive’s employment is terminated under this Agreement, other than for Cause (as defined herein), then the restrictions contained in this Section 7 shall only apply during the remainder of the Employment Period, while Executive receives the payments identified in Section 6(a) of this Agreement. If the Executive’s employment is terminated after the Employment Period and this Agreement have expired, other than for Cause (as defined herein), then the restrictions contained in this Section 7 shall not apply to Executive.

8. Unauthorized Disclosure. During the term of her 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 her duties as an executive of Corporation, any material confidential information obtained by her 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 Corporation or their subsidiaries or affiliates, the disclosure of which could be or will be damaging to Corporation, Bank, Services

Corporation or 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 Corporation or their subsidiaries or affiliates or any information that must be disclosed as required by law.

9. 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 Corporation 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 Corporation and their affiliates and subsidiaries, all of her rights, title, and/or interest in such work product, including, but not limited to, all copyrights, patents, trademarks, and proprietary rights. Executive further agrees that any business that she generates, produces or sells during her employment is the exclusive business of Corporation, Bank and Services Corporation and Executive has no individual rights to or ownership of such business.

10. Return of Company Property and Documents. The Executive agrees that, at the time of termination of her employment, regardless of the reason for termination, she will deliver to Corporation, Bank, Services Corporation 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 her employment.

11. Change in Control. If a Change in Control (as defined in Section 11(b) of this Agreement) shall occur, then, Executive shall be entitled to receive a lump sum amount equal to all monies that remain due to Executive under this Agreement for the remainder of the Employment Period. Said payment shall be made to the Executive on the Change in Control Date; provided, however, that 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 her 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.

(a) As used in this Agreement, “Change in Control” shall mean a change in control of Corporation (other than one occurring by reason of an acquisition of the Corporation Bank by Executive) of a nature that 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 shall be merged or consolidated, or (B) substantially all of the assets of Corporation 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 surviving, resulting, purchasing “person” is owned, immediately after the transaction, by the holders of voting stock of the Corporation before the transaction, unless (y) such merger, consolidation, sale, exchange, purchase or transfer is approved in advance by seventy percent (70%) or more of the members 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 existing after, any such transaction, and of the Board of Directors of such entity’s parent corporation, if any, are former members of the Board of Directors of Corporation, or

(ii) any “person” or group of “persons”(as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the 1934 Act), other than Corporation, Bank or any “person” who on the date hereof is a director or officer of Corporation and/or Bank is or becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the 1934 Act or any successor rule or regulation promulgated under the 1934 Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of Corporation representing thirty (30%) percent or more of the combined voting power of Corporation’s then outstanding securities, or

(iii) during any period of two (2) 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;

provided, however, that no Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred if an agreement of merger, acquisition or consolidation is executed, but the merger, acquisition or consolidation is never completed.

(b) Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in this Section 11 by seeking other employment or otherwise.

12. Date of Change in Control. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Date of Change of Control” shall mean:

(a) the first date on which a single person and/or entity, or group of affiliated persons and/or entities, acquire the beneficial ownership of thirty (30%) percent or more of the Corporation’s voting securities; or

(b) the date of the closing of an Agreement, transferring all or substantially all of the Corporation’s assets; or

(e) the date on which individuals that formerly constituted a majority of the Board of Directors of the Corporation under Section 11(a)(iii) of this Agreement, cease to be a majority.

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

14. Office Location. It is agreed that Corporation may not require Executive to move her office more than twenty-five (25) miles from the location of Services Corporation at the time that this Agreement is executed, without Executive’s consent. Any such requirement will be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement.

15. Notices. For the purposes of this Agreement, notices and all other communications provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered or mailed by United States certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed as follows (or to such other addresses provided by a party to the other parties in writing):

16. 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 Boards of Directors of Corporation, Bank and Services Corporation. 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 14, 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.

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

18. 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.

19. Successors; Binding Agreement.

(a) Corporation, Bank and Services Corporation 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, Bank and Services Corporation to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that Corporation, Bank and Services Corporation 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 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.

20. Arbitration. Corporation, Bank, Services 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 7, 8, 9, or 10, 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, Services Corporation 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 7, 8, 9, or 10.

21. 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 her or its own attorney’s fees, costs, and expenses incurred in connection with the litigation, unless mandated by statute.

22. 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.

23. 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.

24. 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.
