(ii) For a period of three (3) years following the Effective Date, each non-employee member of the Surviving Bank’s board of directors who remains a member of the Surviving Bank’s board of directors after the Effective Date, shall be paid for services as such an annual fee of $9,000 to be paid in quarterly installments, plus $250 for each regular board meeting attended, not to exceed twelve (12) such meetings in any calendar year, plus $100 for each board committee meeting attended.

(i) Outstanding Orrstown Common Stock. Each share of Orrstown Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date shall, on and after the Effective Date, continue to be issued and outstanding as an identical share of Orrstown Common Stock. Shares of Orrstown Common Stock owned by FNB (other than shares held in trust, managed, custodial or nominee accounts and the like that in any such case are beneficially owned by third parties and shares acquired in respect of debts previously contracted) shall become treasury stock of Orrstown.
(ii) Outstanding Interim Bank Common Stock. Each share of common stock of Interim Bank (the “Interim Bank Common Stock”) outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain outstanding and unchanged following the Effective Time as shares of the Surviving Bank.
(iii) Cancellation of Certain Common Stock. Each share of FNB Common Stock that is owned by Orrstown, by FNB as treasury shares, or by any of their respective Subsidiaries (other than shares that are held in trust, managed, custodial or nominee accounts and the like and that are beneficially owned by third parties) shall be canceled and cease to be issued and outstanding, and no consideration shall be delivered therefor.
(iv) Conversion of FNB Common Stock. Each share of FNB Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares canceled pursuant to Section
- 11 -
1.03(e)(iii) and shares with respect to which the holder thereof duly exercises the right to dissent, if any, under applicable law) shall be converted into the right to receive (x) $22.20 in cash (the “Cash Consideration”) and (y) 1.75 shares of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Orrstown Common Stock (the “Stock Consideration”), subject to adjustment as provided in Section 1.03(g) (the “Common Stock Exchange Ratio”).
(v) Cash in Lieu of Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no fraction of a whole share of Orrstown Common Stock and no scrip or certificate therefore shall be issued in connection with the Merger. Any former FNB shareholder who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Orrstown Common Stock shall receive, in lieu thereof, cash in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Average Final Price.
(vi) The outstanding shares of FNB Common Stock, the holders of which have timely filed written notices of an intention to demand appraisal for their shares (“Dissenting FNB Shares”) pursuant to Section 215a of the National Bank Act and have not effectively withdrawn or lost their dissenters’ rights under the National Bank Act, shall not be converted into or represent a right to receive the Merger Consideration under this Agreement, and the holders thereof shall be entitled only to such rights as are granted by Section 215a of the National Bank Act. If any such holder of FNB Common Stock shall have failed to perfect or effectively shall have withdrawn or lost such right the Dissenting FNB Shares held by such holder shall thereupon be treated as though such Dissenting FNB Shares had been converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 1.03(e)(iv) hereof. All payments in respect of Dissenting FNB Shares, if any, will be made by Orrstown.
(f) Surrender and Exchange of FNB Stock Certificates.
(i) Exchange Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, Orrstown shall appoint its transfer agent or a bank or trust company, which may include Orrstown Bank, as the exchange and paying agent (the “Exchange Agent”) for the payment and exchange of the Cash Consideration and the Stock Consideration.
(ii) Exchange Fund. At or prior to the Effective Time, Orrstown shall deposit with the Exchange Agent, in trust for the
- 12 -
benefit of holders of shares of FNB Common Stock, sufficient cash and certificates representing shares of Orrstown Common Stock to make all payments and deliveries to shareholders of FNB pursuant to Section 1.03(e) (iv) and (v). Any cash and certificates for Orrstown Common Stock deposited with the Exchange Agent shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Exchange Fund.”
(iii) Exchange Procedures. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time (and in any case no later than five (5) days thereafter), Orrstown shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each record holder of a certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented issued and outstanding shares of FNB Common Stock (the “FNB Certificates”) a letter of transmittal which shall specify that delivery of the FNB Certificates shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the FNB Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the FNB Certificates to the Exchange Agent, and which letter shall be in customary form and have such other provisions as Orrstown may reasonably specify and instructions for effecting the surrender of such FNB Certificates in exchange for the Merger Consideration. Upon surrender of a FNB Certificate to the Exchange Agent together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed and completed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Exchange Agent, the holder of such FNB Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (A) a certificate representing, in the aggregate, the whole number of shares of Orrstown Common Stock that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 1.03(e) (iv) and (B) a check in the amount equal to the aggregate amount of cash that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 1.03(e) (iv) and (v). No interest will be paid or will accrue on any cash payment pursuant to Section 1.03(e) (iv) and (v). In the event of a transfer of ownership of FNB Common Stock which is not registered in the transfer records of FNB, a certificate representing, in the aggregate, the proper number of shares of Orrstown Common Stock and/or a check in the proper amount pursuant to Section 1.03(e) (iv) and (v) may be issued with respect to such FNB Common Stock, as the case may be, to such a transferee if the FNB Certificate formerly representing such shares of FNB Common Stock is presented to the Exchange Agent, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any applicable stock transfer taxes have been paid.
- 13 -
(iv) Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares. No dividends or other distributions declared or made with respect to shares of Orrstown Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered FNB Certificate with respect to the shares of Orrstown Common Stock that such FNB Certificate holder would be entitled to receive upon surrender of such FNB Certificate until such holder shall surrender such FNB Certificate in accordance with Section 1.03(f)(iii). Subject to the effect of applicable laws, following surrender of any such FNB Certificate, there shall be paid to such holder of shares of Orrstown Common Stock issuable in exchange therefor, without interest, (a) promptly after the time of such surrender, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such whole shares of Orrstown Common Stock and (b) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to such surrender and a payment date subsequent to such surrender payable with respect to such whole shares of Orrstown Common Stock.
(v) No Further Ownership Rights.

(viii) Investment of the Exchange Fund. The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund as reasonably directed by Orrstown; provided that such investments shall be in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America and backed by a full faith and credit of the United States of America or in commercial paper obligations rated P-1 and A-1 or better by Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc. and Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively.

(x) Withholding Rights Orrstown shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of shares of FNB Common Stock such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the IRC and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or any provisions of state, local or foreign tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by Orrstown, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the shares of FNB Common Stock in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Orrstown.
- 15 -
(xi) Stock Transfer Books. At the close of business on the Effective Date, the stock transfer books of FNB with respect to FNB Common Stock issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time shall be closed and, thereafter, there shall be no further registration of transfers on the records of FNB of shares of FNB Common Stock issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of FNB Certificates shall cease to have any rights with respect to such shares of FNB Common Stock, formerly represented thereby, except as otherwise provided herein or by law. On or after the Effective Time, any FNB Certificates presented to the Exchange Agent or Orrstown for any reason shall be exchanged for the applicable Merger Consideration with respect to the shares of FNB Common Stock, formerly represented thereby, any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Orrstown Common Stock to which the holders thereof are entitled pursuant to Section 1.03(e)(v), and any dividends or other distributions on shares of Orrstown Common Stock to which the holders thereof are entitled pursuant to Section 1.03(f)(iv).
(g) Anti-Dilution Provisions.

(By way of illustration, if Orrstown declares a stock dividend of 7% payable with respect to a record date on or prior to the Effective Date, the Common Stock Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted upward by 7%). In addition, in the event that, prior to the Effective Date, Orrstown enters into an agreement pursuant to which shares of Orrstown Common Stock would be converted into shares or other securities or obligations of another corporation, proper provision shall be made in such agreement so that each FNB shareholder entitled to receive shares of Orrstown Common Stock in the Merger shall be entitled to receive such number of shares or other securities or amount of obligations of such other corporation as such shareholder would be entitled to receive if the Effective Date had occurred immediately prior to the happening of such event.

(b) Except as set forth in the FNB Disclosure Schedule, FNB does not lease any real property. The FNB Disclosure Schedule describes in reasonable detail each such lease, including the term and rent due thereunder and FNB has delivered to Orrstown true, correct and complete copies of all such leases. None of such leases are currently in default and FNB has not received notice of, or has knowledge of, a proposed non-renewal of any of said leases. Each real estate lease that may require the consent of the lessor or its agent to the Merger by reason of a prohibition or restriction relating to assignment, by operation of law or otherwise, or change in control, is listed in the FNB Disclosure Schedule identifying the section of the lease that contains such prohibition or restriction.
(c) Except as set forth in the FNB Disclosure Schedule, FNB is not in default in any material respect under any material contract, agreement, commitment, arrangement, lease, insurance policy or other instrument to which it is a party, by which its assets, business or operations may be bound or affected, or under which it or its assets, business or operations receive benefits, and there has not occurred any event that, with the lapse of time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute such a default.
(d) True and correct copies of “material contracts,” leases, agreements, plans, arrangements and instruments referred to in Section 2.08(a) and 2.08(b) have been provided to Orrstown on or before the date hereof, are listed on the FNB Disclosure Schedule and are in full force and effect on the date hereof and neither FNB nor, to the knowledge of FNB, any other party to any such contract, plan, arrangement or instrument, has breached any provision of, or is in default in any respect under any term of, any such contract, lease, plan, arrangement or instrument.

- 21 -
Section 2.09 - Ownership of Property; Insurance Coverage.
(a) FNB has, or will have as to property acquired after the date hereof, good and, as to real property, marketable title to all assets and properties owned by FNB in the conduct of its business, whether such assets and properties are real or personal, tangible or intangible, including assets and property reflected in the balance sheets contained in the FNB Regulatory Reports and in the FNB Financials or acquired subsequent thereto (except to the extent that such assets and properties have been disposed of for fair value, in the ordinary course of business, since the date of such balance sheets), subject to no encumbrances, liens, mortgages, security interests or pledges, except (i) those items which secure repurchase agreements and liabilities for borrowed money from a Federal Home Loan Bank, (ii) statutory liens for amounts not yet delinquent or which are being contested in good faith and (iii) items permitted under Article IV. FNB, as lessee, has the right under valid and subsisting leases of real and personal properties used by FNB in the conduct of its business to occupy or use all such properties as presently occupied and used by each of them. Such existing leases and commitments to lease constitute or will constitute operating leases for both tax and financial accounting purposes and the lease expense and minimum rental commitments with respect to such leases and lease commitments are as disclosed in the notes to the FNB Financials.
(b) With respect to all agreements pursuant to which FNB has purchased securities subject to an agreement to resell, if any, FNB has a valid, perfected first lien or security interest in the securities or other collateral securing the repurchase agreement, and the value of such collateral equals or exceeds the amount of the debt secured thereby.
(c) FNB currently maintains insurance considered by FNB to be reasonable for its operations and similar in scope and coverage to that maintained by other businesses similarly engaged. FNB has not received notice from any insurance carrier that (i) such insurance will be cancelled or that coverage thereunder will be reduced or eliminated, or (ii) premium costs with respect to such policies of insurance will be materially increased. There are presently no material claims pending under such policies of insurance and no notices have been given by FNB under such policies. All such insurance is valid and enforceable and in full force and effect, and within the last three years FNB has received each type of insurance coverage for which it has applied and during such periods have not been denied indemnification for any material claims submitted under any of their insurance policies.
Section 2.10 - Legal Proceedings. Except as set forth in the FNB Disclosure Schedule, FNB is not a party to any, and there are no pending or, to the best of FNB’s knowledge, threatened, legal, administrative, arbitration or other proceedings, claims (whether asserted or unasserted), actions or governmental investigations or inquiries of any nature (i) against FNB, (ii) to which FNB’s assets are or may be subject, (iii) challenging the validity or propriety of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or (iv) which could adversely affect the ability of FNB to perform under this Agreement.
- 22 -
Section 2.11 - Compliance With Applicable Law.
(a) FNB holds all licenses, franchises, permits and authorizations necessary for the lawful conduct of its businesses under, and has complied in all material respects with, all applicable Laws relating to it.
(b) Except as disclosed on the FNB Disclosure Schedule, (i) FNB is in substantial compliance with all of the statutes, regulations or ordinances which each Regulatory Authority applicable to it enforces; (ii) no Regulatory Authority has threatened to revoke any license, franchise, permit or governmental authorization which is material to FNB, or required or threatened to require FNB to enter into a cease and desist order, memorandum of understanding, or written agreement with it; and (iii) no Regulatory Authority has restricted or limited the operations of FNB, including without limitation any restriction on the payment of dividends (any such memorandum, agreement or order described in this sentence is hereinafter referred to as a “Regulatory Agreement”). FNB has not consented to or entered into any Regulatory Agreement. FNB has no reason to believe that it will not receive regulatory approval for the Merger. FNB has no reason to believe that the most recent examination of FNB conducted by the OCC will result in the identification of any matters requiring the attention of FNB that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect as to FNB. FNB received a rating of “satisfactory” in connection with its last CRA examination.
Section 2.12 - ERISA. FNB has previously delivered to Orrstown true and complete copies of all employee pension benefit plans within the meaning of ERISA Section 3(2), including profit sharing plans, employee stock ownership plans, stock purchase plans, deferred compensation and supplemental income plans, supplemental executive retirement plans, employment agreements, annual executive and administrative incentive plan or long term incentive plans, severance plans, policies and agreements, group insurance plans, and all other employee welfare benefit plans within the meaning of ERISA Section 3(1) (including vacation pay, sick leave, short-term disability, long-term disability, and medical plans) and all other employee benefit plans, policies, agreements and arrangements, all of which are set forth in the FNB Disclosure Schedule, sponsored or contributed to for the benefit of the employees or former employees (including retired employees) and any beneficiaries thereof or directors or former directors of FNB, together with (i) the most recent actuarial (if any) and financial reports relating to those plans which constitute “qualified plans” under IRC Section 401(a), (ii) the most recent annual reports relating to such plans filed with any government agency, and (iii) all rulings and determination letters which pertain to any such plans. Neither FNB, nor any pension plan maintained or previously maintained by FNB, has incurred, directly or indirectly, within the past six (6) years any liability under Title IV of ERISA (including to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation) or to the IRS with respect to any pension plan qualified under IRC Section 401(a) except liabilities to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation pursuant to ERISA Section 4007, all of which have been fully paid, nor has any reportable event under ERISA Section 4043 occurred with respect to any such pension plan. With respect to each of such plans that is subject to Title IV of ERISA, the present value of the accrued benefits under such plan, based upon the actuarial assumptions used for funding purposes in the plan’s most recent actuarial report did not,
- 23 -
as of its latest valuation date, exceed the then current value of the assets of such plan allocable to such accrued benefits. FNB has not incurred nor is it subject to any liability under ERISA Section 4201 for a complete or partial withdrawal from a multiemployer plan. All “employee benefit plans,” as defined in ERISA Section 3(3), of FNB comply and within the past six (6) years have complied in all material respects with (i) relevant provisions of ERISA and (ii) in the case of plans intended to qualify for favorable income tax treatment, provisions of the IRC relevant to such treatment. No prohibited transaction (which shall mean any transaction prohibited by ERISA Section 406 and not exempt under ERISA Section 408 or any transaction prohibited under IRC Section 4975) has occurred within the past six (6) years with respect to any employee benefit plan maintained by FNB which would result in the imposition, directly or indirectly, of an excise tax under IRC Section 4975 or other penalty under ERISA or the IRC. FNB provides continuation coverage under group health plans for separating employees and “qualified beneficiaries” in accordance with the provisions of IRC Section 4980B(f). Such group health plans are in material compliance with Section 1862(b)(1) of the Social Security Act.
Section 2.13 - Brokers, Finders and Financial Advisors; Fairness Opinion. Except for FNB’s engagement of Boenning and Scattergood, Inc. (“Boenning”) in connection with transactions contemplated by this Agreement, neither FNB, nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents, has employed any broker, finder or financial advisor in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or in connection with any transaction other than the Merger, or, except for its commitments disclosed in the FNB Disclosure Schedule, incurred any liability or commitment for any fees or commissions to any such person in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or in connection with any transaction other than the Merger, which has not been reflected in the FNB Financials. The FNB Disclosure Schedule contains as an exhibit the engagement letter between FNB and Boenning. Boenning has provided FNB with its oral opinion to the effect that, as of the date of approval of this Agreement by the Board of Directors of FNB, the Merger Consideration is fair to shareholders of FNB from a financial point of view.

There are no actions, suits or proceedings, or demands, claims, notices or investigations (including without limitation notices, demand letters or requests for information from any environmental agency) instituted or pending, or to the knowledge of FNB, threatened, relating to the liability of any property owned or operated by FNB under any Environmental Law.

- 24 -
environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended (“CERCLA”), on the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liabilities Information System, or any similar state list, or which is the subject of federal, state or local enforcement actions or other investigations which may lead to claims against FNB for response costs, remedial work, investigation, damage to natural resources or for personal injury or property damage claim, including, but not limited to, claims under CERCLA.
(c) Except as set forth on the FNB Disclosure Schedule, to the knowledge of FNB, there has been no release nor is there the threat of release of any substance described in clause (ii) of the definition of Environmental Law set forth in Section 1.01 hereof on, at or from any property, now or formerly owned or operated by FNB or on which FNB holds or held a mortgage or other security interest or has foreclosed or taken a deed in lieu of foreclosure, or any property adjacent to or in the immediate vicinity of any such properties.
Section 2.15 - Allowance for Losses. The allowance for loan losses reflected, and to be reflected, in the FNB Regulatory Reports, and shown, and to be shown, on the balance sheets contained in the FNB Financials have been, and will be, established in accordance with the requirements of GAAP and all applicable regulatory criteria.
Section 2.16 - Information to be Supplied.

The information supplied, or to be supplied, by FNB for inclusion in the Applications will, at the time such documents are filed with any Regulatory Authority and up to and including the date of the attainment of any required regulatory approvals or consents, be accurate in all material respects.
Section 2.17 - Related Party Transactions. Except as disclosed in the footnotes to the FNB Financials, or in the FNB Disclosure Schedule, FNB is not a party to any transaction (including any loan or other credit accommodation, but excluding deposits in the ordinary course of business) with any Affiliate of FNB. All such transactions (a) were made in the ordinary course of business, (b) were made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other Persons, and (c) did not involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present other risks or unfavorable features. No loan or credit accommodation to any Affiliate of FNB is presently in default or, during the three year period prior to the date of this Agreement, has been in default or has been restructured, modified or extended. FNB has not been notified that principal and interest with respect to any such loan or other credit accommodation will not be paid when due or that the loan grade classification accorded such loan or credit accommodation by FNB is inappropriate.
- 25 -
Section 2.18 - Schedule of Termination Benefits. The FNB Disclosure Schedule includes a schedule of the present value as of December 31, 2005 of the maximum amount of termination benefits and related payments which would be payable to the individuals identified thereon, under any and all employment agreements, special termination agreements, supplemental executive retirement plans, deferred bonus plans, deferred compensation plans, salary continuation plans, or any other pension benefit or welfare benefit plan maintained by FNB for the benefit of executive officers or directors of FNB (the “Benefits Schedule”), assuming that the Closing Date occurs on December 31, 2005 and that the employment of such individuals terminates immediately thereafter. No other individuals are entitled to benefits under any such plans. Except as set forth in FNB Disclosure Schedule, as of the date of this Agreement, no FNB director or executive officer had deferred any compensation accrued by FNB.

(b) Severance Policy. Orrstown agrees to cause Surviving Bank to provide severance pay, as set forth below, to any full-time, active employee of FNB whose employment is terminated hereafter in connection with the Merger up to twelve (12) months beyond the Effective Date, because (i) such employee’s position is eliminated, or (ii) such employee is not offered or retained in comparable employment (i.e., a position of generally similar job description or responsibilities in a location within a sixty (60) mile radius from such employee’s current work location with FNB) with Surviving Bank or any Orrstown Subsidiary, excluding any employee (i) who has an existing employment or consulting agreement with FNB, (ii) who has accepted an offer from Orrstown of noncomparable employment or (iii) whose employment is terminated for Cause (as defined below), provided such employee executes such documentation as Orrstown may reasonably require, including Orrstown’s customary form of release and provided such employee does not leave employment with Orrstown or the Surviving Bank prior to the date the systems conversion occurs. The severance pay to be provided by the Surviving Bank under this subsection shall equal two (2) weeks’ pay for each full year of continuous service (determined based on the date of the employee’s commencement of employment with Orrstown) with a minimum severance benefit of four (4) weeks’ pay and a maximum severance benefit of twenty-six (26) weeks’ pay.

The benefits provided to terminated FNB employees under this subsection are the only severance benefits payable by Orrstown or the Surviving Bank to such employees (excluding severance benefits provided under existing employment or consulting agreements or as otherwise required by law), except for employees who do not execute the documentation required by Orrstown, which employees shall be entitled to the termination benefits provided under FNB’s normal severance policies. The benefits payable to Orrstown’s employees under this subsection or otherwise shall in any event be in lieu of any termination benefits to which such employees would otherwise be entitled under Orrstown’s severance policies or programs then in effect.

(d) Except as required by law, agrees that the undersigned will not, and will not permit any company, trust or other entity controlled by the undersigned to, contract to sell, sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any of the Shares or any interest therein or any voting rights with respect thereto, other than subsequent to the shareholder meeting of FNB held in connection with the vote on the Agreement or a gift where the donee has agreed in writing to abide by the terms of this agreement in a form reasonably satisfactory to Orrstown;
(e) Agrees not to offer, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any shares of common stock of Orrstown received in the Merger, except (i) at such time as a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”) covering sales of such Orrstown common stock is effective and a prospectus is made available under the Securities Act, (ii) within the limits, and in accordance with the applicable provisions of, Rule 145(d) under the Securities Act, or (iii) in a transaction which, in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to Orrstown or as described in a “no-action” or interpretive letter from the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission issued to the undersigned for such purpose, is not required to be registered under the Securities Act; and acknowledges and agrees that Orrstown is under no obligation to register the sale, transfer or other disposition of Orrstown common stock by the undersigned or on behalf of the undersigned, or to take any other action necessary to make an exemption from registration available;
