WHEREAS, Xxxxxxx owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Xxxxx and Delaware owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of NBDC Bank, and it is contemplated that, immediately following the Merger, NBDC Bank will be merged with and into Xxxxx with Xxxxx as the surviving entity (the “Bank Merger”); and

ARTICLE 1

THE MERGER

Section 1.1 Consummation of Merger; Closing Date.

(a) On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Effective Time of the Merger (as defined herein), Delaware shall be merged with and into Norwood in accordance with Chapter 3 of the Pennsylvania Associations Code (“PAC”) and Section 907 of the New York Business Corporation Law (“NYBCL”) (the “Merger”), with Xxxxxxx as the surviving corporation (hereinafter sometimes called the “Surviving Corporation”). Each share of common stock, par value $1.25 per share, of Delaware (“Delaware Common Stock”) outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger (other than Dissenting Shares, shares held by Delaware (including treasury shares), Xxxxxxx or any of their respective wholly-owned subsidiaries (in each case, other than in a fiduciary capacity)) shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action by the holder thereof, be converted into and represent the right to receive 0.6221 of a share of Xxxxxxx Common Stock or $16.68 in cash, without interest (the “Merger Consideration”) as provided in Section 2.1 hereof and subject to the terms, conditions, limitations and procedures set forth in this Agreement and the Bank Plan of Merger.

(b) The Merger shall be consummated pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, which has been approved and adopted by each of the Boards of Directors of Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx, Delaware and NBDC Bank.

(c) Subject to the prior satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Articles 7, 8 and 9 hereof, the Merger shall become effective as of the later of the date and time of filing of a Statement of Merger with the Pennsylvania Department of State pursuant to Section 335 of the PAC and the date and time of filing of a Certificate of Merger with the Department of State of the State of New York, unless a later date or time is specified as the effective time in the Statement of Merger and the Certificate of Merger (such term is heretofore and hereinafter referred to as the “Effective Time of the Merger”). Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, unless otherwise agreed upon by Xxxxxxx and Delaware, the Effective Time of the Merger shall occur on the tenth (10th) business day following the later to occur of (i) the effective date (including expiration of any applicable waiting period) of the last required Consent (as defined herein) of any Regulatory Authority (as defined herein) having authority over the transactions contemplated under this Agreement and the satisfaction of all of the other terms and conditions of this Agreement (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing) and (ii) the date on which the shareholders of Delaware approve the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(d) The closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place at the principal offices of Xxxxxxx at 10:00 a.m. local time on the day that the Effective Time of the Merger occurs, or such other date, time and place as the Parties hereto may agree (the “Closing Date”).

The articles of incorporation and bylaws of Xxxxxxx, as in effect on the date hereof and as otherwise amended prior to the Effective Time of the Merger, shall be the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until further amended as provided therein and in accordance with applicable law. The Surviving Corporation shall have all the rights, privileges, immunities and powers and shall be subject to all the duties and liabilities of a Pennsylvania corporation and shall thereupon and thereafter possess all other privileges, immunities and franchises of a private, as well as of a public nature, of each of the constituent corporations. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in the PAC and the NYBCL. All property (real, personal and mixed) and all debts on whatever account, including subscriptions to shares, and all choses in action, all and every other interest, of or belonging to or due to each of the constituent corporations so merged shall be taken and deemed to be transferred to and vested in the Surviving Corporation without further act or deed. The title to any real estate, or any interest therein, vested in any of the constituent corporations shall not revert or be in any way impaired by reason of the Merger. The Surviving Corporation shall thenceforth be responsible and liable for all the liabilities and obligations of each of the constituent corporations so merged and any claim, action or proceeding existing or pending by or against either of the constituent corporations may be prosecuted as if the Merger had not taken place or the Surviving Corporation may be substituted in its place. Neither the rights of creditors nor any liens upon the property of any constituent corporation shall be impaired by the Merger.

Section 1.3 Further Assurances. If, at any time after the Effective Time of the Merger, Xxxxxxx shall reasonably consider or be advised that any further deeds, assignments or assurances in law or any other acts are necessary or desirable to (i) vest, perfect or confirm, of record or otherwise, in Xxxxxxx its right, title or interest in, to or under any of the rights, properties or assets of Delaware or any Delaware Subsidiary (as defined herein) or (ii) otherwise carry out the purposes of this Agreement, Delaware, the Delaware Subsidiaries and their officers and directors shall be deemed to have granted to Xxxxxxx an irrevocable power of attorney to execute and deliver, in such official corporate capacities, all such deeds, assignments or assurances in law or any other acts as are necessary or desirable to (a) vest, perfect or confirm, of record or otherwise, in Xxxxxxx its right, title or interest in, to or under any of the rights, properties or assets of Delaware or the Delaware Subsidiaries or (b) otherwise carry out the purposes of this Agreement, and the officers and directors of Xxxxxxx are authorized in the name of Delaware and the Delaware Subsidiaries or otherwise to take any and all such action.

Section 1.4 Directors and Officers.

ARTICLE 2

CONVERSION OF CONSTITUENTS’ CAPITAL SHARES

Section 2.1 Manner of Conversion of Delaware Common Stock. Subject to the provisions hereof, as of the Effective Time of the Merger and by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of Norwood, Delaware or the holder of any shares of any of them, the shares of the constituent corporations shall be converted as follows:

(a) Each share of capital stock of Xxxxxxx outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger shall, after the Effective Time of the Merger, remain outstanding and unchanged.

(b) Each share of Delaware Common Stock held by Delaware (including treasury shares) or by Xxxxxxx (or any of their subsidiaries) other than such shares held in a fiduciary capacity or as a result of debts previously contracted, shall be canceled and retired and no consideration shall be paid or delivered in exchange therefor.

(c) Except with regard to the shares of Delaware Common Stock excluded under Section 2.1(b) above and Dissenting Shares (as defined in Section 2.6) and subject to the limits in Section 2.2 hereof, each issued and outstanding share of Delaware Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger (whether or not subject to restriction) shall be converted into and constitute, as provided in and subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, the right to receive at the election of the holder thereof as provided in, and as adjusted pursuant to, Section 2.7, the following consideration (in the aggregate for all such shares of Delaware Common Stock, the “Merger Consideration”):

(1) for each such share of Delaware Common Stock with respect to which an election to receive cash has been effectively made and not revoked or lost pursuant to Section 2.2 (a “Cash Election”), cash in an amount equal to $16.68, without interest, (the “Cash Consideration”) (collectively, the “Cash Election Shares”);

(2) for each such share of Delaware Common Stock with respect to which an election to receive Xxxxxxx Common Stock has been effectively made and not revoked or lost pursuant to Section 2.2 (a “Stock Election”), 0.6221 of a share of Xxxxxxx Common Stock (the “Stock Consideration”) (collectively, the “Stock Election Shares”); or

(3) for each such share of Delaware Common Stock other than shares as to which a Cash Election, a Stock Election or a Mixed Election (as defined in Section 2.2) has been effectively made and not revoked or lost pursuant to Section 2.2 (collectively, the “Non-Election Shares”), the Stock Consideration or Cash Consideration as is determined in accordance with Section 2.2.

Section 2.2 Election Procedures.

(a) Holders of shares of Delaware Common Stock may elect to receive shares of Xxxxxxx Common Stock or cash (in either case without interest) in exchange for their shares of Delaware Common Stock in accordance with the procedures and subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 2.2. Shares of Delaware Common Stock as to which a Cash Election (including, pursuant to a Mixed Election) has been made are referred to herein as “Cash Election Shares.” Shares of Delaware Common Stock as to which a Stock Election has been made (including, pursuant to a Mixed Election) are referred to as “Stock Election Shares.” Shares of Delaware Common Stock as to which no election has been made (or as to which an Election Form is not returned properly completed) are referred to herein as “Non-Election Shares.”

(b) An election form and other appropriate and customary transmittal materials (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon proper delivery of such Certificates to the Exchange Agent), in such form as Delaware and Xxxxxxx shall mutually agree (“Election Form”), shall be mailed on the same date as the Proxy Statement/Prospectus (as defined herein) is mailed to stockholders of Delaware (the “Mailing Date”) to each holder of record of Delaware Common Stock eligible to vote at the Delaware Stockholders’ Meeting (the “Election Form Record Date”). Each Election Form shall permit such holder, subject to the allocation and election procedures set forth in this Section 2.2, (i) to elect to receive the Cash Consideration for all of the shares of Delaware Common Stock held by such holder, in accordance with Section 2.1(c)(1), (ii) to elect to receive the Stock Consideration for all of such shares, in accordance with Section 2.1(c)(2), (iii) to elect to receive the Stock Consideration for a certain whole number of such holder’s shares and the Cash Consideration for all other shares of such holder’s shares (a “Mixed Election”) (all such shares together, the “Mixed Election Shares”), or (iv) to indicate that such record holder has no preference as to the receipt of cash or Xxxxxxx Common Stock for such shares. A holder of record of shares of Delaware Common Stock who holds such shares as nominee, trustee or in another representative capacity (a “Stockholder Representative”) may submit multiple Election Forms, provided that each such Election Form covers all the shares of Delaware Common Stock held by such Stockholder Representative for a particular beneficial owner. Any shares of Delaware Common Stock with respect to which the holder thereof shall not, as of the Election Deadline, have made an election by submission to the Exchange Agent of an effective, properly completed Election Form shall be deemed Non-Election Shares. All Dissenting Shares shall be deemed shares subject to a Cash Election, and with respect to such shares the holders thereof shall in no event receive consideration comprised of Xxxxxxx Common Stock; provided, however, that for purposes of making the proration calculations provided for in this Section 2.2, only Dissenting Shares as existing at the Effective Time shall be deemed Cash Election Shares.

(c) To be effective, a properly completed Election Form shall be submitted to the Exchange Agent on or before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day of the Delaware Shareholders’ Meeting (or such other time and date as Xxxxxxx and Delaware may mutually agree) (the “Election Deadline”); provided, however, that the Election Deadline may not occur on or after the Closing Date. Delaware shall use its reasonable best efforts to make available up to two separate Election Forms, or such additional Election Forms as Xxxxxxx may permit, to all persons who become holders (or beneficial owners) of Delaware Common Stock between the Election Form Record Date and the close of business on the business day prior to the Election Deadline. Delaware shall provide to the Exchange Agent all information reasonably necessary

for it to perform as specified herein. An election shall have been properly made only if the Exchange Agent shall have actually received a properly completed Election Form by the Election Deadline. An Election Form shall be deemed properly completed only if accompanied by one or more Certificates (or customary affidavits and indemnification regarding the loss or destruction of such Certificates or the guaranteed delivery of such Certificates) representing all shares of Delaware Common Stock covered by such Election Form, together with duly executed transmittal materials included with the Election Form. If a Delaware stockholder either (i) does not submit a properly completed Election Form in a timely fashion or (ii) revokes its Election Form prior to the Election Deadline (without later submitting a properly completed Election Form prior to the Election Deadline), the shares of Delaware Common Stock held by such stockholder shall be designated as Non-Election Shares. Any Election Form may be revoked or changed by the person submitting such Election Form to the Exchange Agent by written notice to the Exchange Agent only if such notice of revocation or change is actually received by the Exchange Agent at or prior to the Election Deadline. Xxxxxxx shall cause the Certificate or Certificates relating to any revoked Election Form to be promptly returned without charge to the person submitting the Election Form to the Exchange Agent. Subject to the terms of this Agreement and of the Election Form, the Exchange Agent shall have discretion to determine when any election, modification or revocation is received and whether any such election, modification or revocation has been properly made. All Elections (whether Cash, Stock or Mixed) shall be revoked automatically if the Exchange Agent is notified in writing by Norwood or Delaware, upon exercise by Norwood or Delaware of its respective or their mutual rights to terminate this Agreement to the extent provided under Article 10, that this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with Article 10.

(d) The number of shares of Delaware Common Stock to be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration shall be equal to 25% of the number of shares of Delaware Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Aggregate Cash Limit”) and the number of shares of Delaware Common Stock to be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration shall be equal to 75% of the number of shares of Delaware Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Aggregate Stock Limit”).

(e) If the number of Cash Election Shares is less than the Aggregate Cash Limit, then:

(1) all Cash Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration,

(2) Non-Election Shares shall then be deemed to be Cash Election Shares to the extent necessary to have the total number of Cash Election Shares equal the Aggregate Cash Limit. If less than all of the Non-Election Shares need to be treated as Cash Election Shares, then a sufficient number of Non-Election Shares shall be deemed Cash Election Shares (“Deemed Cash Election Shares”) and Share Election Shares (“Deemed Share Election Shares”) on a pro rata basis as described below such that the sum of the number of Cash Election Shares plus the number of Deemed Cash Election Shares equals the Aggregate Cash Limit and all Deemed Share Election Shares shall be treated as Stock Election Shares,

(3) if all of the Non-Election Shares are treated as Cash Election Shares under the preceding subsection and the total number of Cash Election Shares is less than the Aggregate Cash Limit, then the Exchange Agent shall convert on a pro rata basis as described below a sufficient number of Stock Election Shares into Cash Election Shares (“Reallocated Cash Shares”) such that the sum of the number of Cash Election Shares plus the number of Reallocated Cash Shares equals the Aggregate Cash Limit, and all Reallocated Cash Shares will be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration, and

(4) the Stock Election Shares which are not Reallocated Cash Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration.

(f) If the number of Cash Election Shares is greater than the Aggregate Cash Limit, then:

(1) all Stock Election Shares and all Non-Election Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration,

(2) the Exchange Agent shall convert on a pro rata basis as described below a sufficient number of Cash Election Shares (“Reallocated Stock Shares”) such that the number of remaining Cash Election Shares equals the Aggregate Cash Limit, and all Reallocated Stock Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration, and

(3) the Cash Election Shares which are not Reallocated Stock Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Cash Consideration.

(g) If the number of Cash Election Shares is equal to the Aggregate Cash Limit, then subparagraphs (d)(i) and (ii) above shall not apply and all Non-Election Shares and all Stock Election Shares will be converted into the right to receive the Stock Consideration.

(h) In the event that the Exchange Agent is required to convert some Stock Election Shares into Reallocated Cash Shares, each holder of Stock Election Shares shall be allocated a pro rata portion of the total Reallocated Cash Shares. In the event the Exchange Agent is required to convert some Cash Election Shares into Reallocated Stock Shares, each holder of Cash Election Shares shall be allocated a pro rata portion of the total Reallocated Stock Shares.

(i) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, no fractional shares of Xxxxxxx Common Stock and no certificates or scrip therefor, or other evidence of ownership thereof, will be issued in the Merger. Instead, Xxxxxxx will pay to each holder of Delaware Common Stock who would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share of Xxxxxxx Common Stock (after taking into account all certificates formerly representing shares of Delaware Common Stock delivered by such holder) an amount in cash (without interest) determined by multiplying such fraction of a share of Xxxxxxx Common Stock by the average of the closing sale prices of Xxxxxxx Common Stock, as reported on The Nasdaq Stock Market for the twenty consecutive trading days ending on the day immediately prior to the Closing Date; provided, however, that in the event Xxxxxxx Common Stock does not trade on one or more of the trading

days in such period, any such date shall be disregarded in computing the average closing sales price and the average shall be based upon the closing sales prices and number of days on which Xxxxxxx Common Stock actually traded during such period.

(j) Within seven business days after the Effective Time of the Merger, Xxxxxxx shall cause the Exchange Agent to effect the allocation of the Cash Consideration and the Stock Consideration among holders of Delaware Common Stock and to distribute the Merger Consideration as set forth herein.

Section 2.3 Effectuating Conversion.

(a) On the business day immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger, Xxxxxxx will deliver or cause to be delivered to Computershare or another third-party agent to be appointed by Xxxxxxx and reasonably acceptable to Delaware (the “Exchange Agent”) an amount of cash equal to the aggregate Cash Consideration to be paid pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof (the “Exchange Fund”). As promptly as practicable after the Effective Time of the Merger, the Exchange Agent shall send or cause to be sent to each former holder of record of shares of Delaware Common Stock who did not previously submit an Election Form transmittal materials (the “Letter of Transmittal”) for use in exchanging their certificates formerly representing shares of Delaware Common Stock for the Merger Consideration provided for in this Agreement. The Letter of Transmittal will contain instructions with respect to the surrender of certificates representing shares of Delaware Common Stock and the receipt of the Merger Consideration contemplated by this Agreement and will require each holder of shares of Delaware Common Stock to transfer good and marketable title to such shares of Delaware Common Stock to Xxxxxxx, free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances.

(b) At the Effective Time of the Merger, the stock transfer books of Delaware shall be closed as to holders of shares of Delaware Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger, no transfer of shares of Delaware Common Stock by any such holder shall thereafter be made or recognized and each outstanding certificate formerly representing shares of Delaware Common Stock shall, without any action on the part of any holder thereof, no longer represent shares of Delaware Common Stock. If, after the Effective Time of the Merger, certificates are properly presented to the Exchange Agent, such certificates shall be exchanged for the Merger Consideration other than Dissenting Shares.

(c) In the event that any holder of record as of the Effective Time of the Merger of shares of Delaware Common Stock is unable to deliver the certificate which represents such holder’s shares of Delaware Common Stock, Xxxxxxx, in the absence of actual notice that any shares of Delaware Common Stock theretofore represented by any such certificate have been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, shall deliver to such holder the Merger Consideration contemplated by this Agreement to which such holder is entitled in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement upon the presentation of all of the following:

(i) an affidavit or other evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of Xxxxxxx that any such certificate has been lost, wrongfully taken or destroyed;

(ii) such security or indemnity as may be reasonably requested by Xxxxxxx to indemnify and hold Xxxxxxx harmless in respect of such stock certificate(s); and

(iii) evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of Xxxxxxx that such holder is the owner of shares of Delaware Common Stock theretofore represented by each certificate claimed by such holder to be lost, wrongfully taken or destroyed and that such holder is the person who would be entitled to present each such certificate for exchange pursuant to this Agreement.

(d) If the delivery of the Merger Consideration contemplated by this Agreement is to be made to a person other than the person in whose name any certificate representing shares of Delaware Common Stock surrendered is registered, such certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed (or accompanied by an appropriate instrument of transfer), with the signature(s) appropriately guaranteed, and otherwise in proper form for transfer, and the person requesting such delivery shall pay any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the delivery to a person other than the registered holder of such certificate surrendered or establish to the reasonable satisfaction of Xxxxxxx that such tax has been paid or is not applicable.

(e) No dividends or other distributions declared with respect to Xxxxxxx Common Stock shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered certificate or certificates representing shares of Delaware Common Stock entitled to be converted into Xxxxxxx Common Stock until the holder thereof shall surrender such certificate or certificates in accordance with this Section 2.3. Following the surrender of such certificate or certificates in accordance with this Section 2.3, the record holder thereof shall be entitled to receive any such dividends or other distributions, without interest thereon, which theretofore had become payable with respect to the whole shares of Xxxxxxx Common Stock which the shares of Delaware Common Stock represented by such certificate or certificates have been converted into the right to receive.

(f) Except as provided herein, the consideration contemplated by this Agreement shall not be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered certificate or certificates representing shares of Delaware Common Stock, and neither the Exchange Agent nor Xxxxxxx shall be obligated to deliver any of the Merger Consideration contemplated by this Agreement until such holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates representing shares of Delaware Common Stock as provided for by this Agreement. Subject to applicable laws, following surrender of any such certificate or certificates, there shall be paid to the holder of the certificate or certificates formerly representing shares of Delaware Common Stock, without interest at the time of such surrender, the Merger Consideration.

(g) At any time following six months after the Effective Time, Xxxxxxx shall be entitled to require the Exchange Agent to deliver to it any portion of the Exchange Fund which has not yet been disbursed to former holders of shares of Delaware Common Stock, and thereafter, such holders shall be entitled to look to Xxxxxxx (subject to abandoned property and escheat laws) with respect to any amounts due upon surrender of their certificates formerly representing shares of Delaware Common Stock.

(h) Xxxxxxx or the Exchange Agent will be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby to any holder of shares of Delaware Common Stock, such amounts as Xxxxxxx (or any Affiliate thereof) or the Exchange Agent is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any applicable provision of U.S.

federal, state, local or non-U.S. Tax law. To the extent that such amounts are properly withheld by Xxxxxxx or the Exchange Agent, such withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the shares of Delaware Common Stock in respect of whom such deduction and withholding were made by Xxxxxxx or the Exchange Agent.

Section 2.4 Determination of Alternative Structures. Delaware hereby agrees that Xxxxxxx may at any time change the method of effecting the Merger; provided, however, that no such changes shall (a) alter or change the amount or kind of the Merger Consideration to be paid to holders of the shares of Delaware Common Stock, (b) materially impede or delay consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or (c) adversely affect the tax treatment of Delaware’s stockholders as a result of receiving the Merger Consideration or the tax treatment of any Party pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 2.5 Laws of Escheat. If any of the consideration due or other payments to be paid or delivered to the holders of shares of Delaware Common Stock is not paid or delivered within the time period specified by any applicable laws concerning abandoned property, escheat or similar laws, and if such failure to pay or deliver such consideration occurs or arises out of the fact that such property is not claimed by the proper owner thereof, Xxxxxxx or the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to dispose of any such consideration or other payments in accordance with applicable laws concerning abandoned property, escheat or similar laws. Any other provision of this Agreement notwithstanding, none of Delaware, Xxxxxxx, the Exchange Agent, nor any other Person acting on behalf of any of them shall be liable to a holder of shares of Delaware Common Stock for any amount paid or property delivered in good faith to a public official pursuant to and in accordance with any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

Section 2.6 Appraisal Rights. Each issued and outstanding share of Delaware Common Stock the holder of which has perfected his right to dissent under the NYBCL and has not effectively withdrawn or lost such right as of the Effective Time (the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into or represent a right to receive the per share Merger Consideration hereunder, and the holder thereof shall be entitled only to such rights as are granted by the NYBCL. Delaware shall give Xxxxxxx prompt notice upon receipt by Delaware of any such demands for payment of the fair value of such shares of Delaware Common Stock, any withdrawals of such notice and any other instruments provided pursuant to applicable law (any stockholder duly making such demand being hereinafter called a “Dissenting Stockholder”), and Xxxxxxx shall have the right to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demands. Delaware shall not, except with the prior written consent of Xxxxxxx, voluntarily make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demand for payment, or waive any failure to timely deliver a written demand for appraisal or the taking of any other action by such Dissenting Stockholder as may be necessary to perfect appraisal rights under the NYBCL. Any payments made in respect of Dissenting Shares shall be made by the Surviving Entity. If any Dissenting Stockholder shall effectively withdraw or lose (through failure to perfect or otherwise) his right

to such payment at or prior to the Effective Time, such holder’s shares of Delaware Common Stock shall be converted into a right to receive cash or Xxxxxxx Common Stock in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement. If such holder shall effectively withdraw or lose (through failure to perfect or otherwise) his right to such payment after the Effective Time (or the Election Deadline), each share of Delaware Common Stock of such holder shall be treated as a Non-Election Share.

Section 2.7 Anti-Dilution. If Xxxxxxx changes the number or kind of shares of Xxxxxxx Common Stock outstanding by way of a stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reclassification, reorganization or similar transaction, then the Stock Consideration will be adjusted proportionately to account for such change and all references herein to the term Stock Consideration will be deemed to mean the Stock Consideration as adjusted.

Delaware shall provide information not less than weekly regarding the business activities and operations of Delaware and all Parties will establish procedures for coordinating and monitoring of transition activities. No Party shall be required to provide access to or to disclose information where such access or disclosure would contravene any law, rule, regulation, order or judgment or would violate any confidentiality agreement entered into by Delaware prior to the date hereof; provided that each Party shall cooperate with the other Party in seeking to obtain Consents from appropriate parties under whose rights or authority access is otherwise restricted. The foregoing rights granted shall not, whether or not and regardless of the extent to which the same are exercised, affect the representations and warranties made in this Agreement.

(b) All information furnished by the Parties hereto pursuant to this Agreement, whether furnished before or after the date of this Agreement, shall be treated as the sole property of the Party providing such information until the consummation of the Merger contemplated hereby and, if such transaction shall not occur, the Party receiving the information shall return to the Party which furnished such information, all documents or other materials containing, reflecting or referring to such information, shall use its best efforts to keep confidential all such information, and shall not directly or indirectly use such information for any competitive or other commercial purposes. The obligation to keep such information confidential shall continue for two (2) years from the date the proposed transactions are abandoned but shall not apply to (i) any information which (A) the Party receiving the information was already in possession of prior to disclosure thereof by the Party furnishing the information, (B) was then available to the public, or (C) became available to the public through no fault of the Party receiving the information; or (ii) disclosures pursuant to a legal requirement or in accordance with an order of a court of competent jurisdiction or regulatory agency; provided, however, the Party which is the subject of any such legal requirement or order shall use its best efforts to give

the other Party at least ten (10) business days prior notice thereof. Each Party hereto acknowledges and agrees that a breach of any of their respective obligations under this Section 5.4 would cause the other irreparable harm for which there is no adequate remedy at law, and that, accordingly, each is entitled to injunctive and other equitable relief for the enforcement thereof in addition to damages or any other relief available at law.

This training may take place at either Delaware’s branch offices or at Xxxxxxx’x corporate headquarters at such times to be determined in cooperation with Delaware and shall be conducted in a manner so as to not interfere with the business operations of Delaware.

(d) Delaware and NBDC Bank shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to maintain insurance in such amounts as are reasonable to cover such risks as are customary in relation to the character and location of their properties and the nature of their businesses.

Section 5.5 Registration Statement/Approval of Shareholders.

(a) Xxxxxxx agrees to prepare and file, as soon as reasonably practicable, the Form S-4 with the SEC in connection with the issuance of Xxxxxxx Common Stock in the Merger including the Proxy Statement/Prospectus and other proxy solicitation materials of Delaware constituting a part thereof and all related documents. Delaware shall prepare and furnish to Xxxxxxx such information relating to it and its directors, officers and shareholders as may be reasonably required in connection with the above referenced documents based on its Knowledge of and access to the information required for said documents and as Xxxxxxx may request, and Delaware, and its legal, financial and accounting advisors, shall have the right to review in advance such Form S-4 prior to its filing. Delaware agrees to cooperate with Xxxxxxx and Norwood’s counsel and accountants in requesting and obtaining appropriate opinions, consents and letters from its financial advisor and independent auditor in connection with the Form S-4 and the Proxy Statement/Prospectus. Each of Delaware and Xxxxxxx agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Form S-4 to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as reasonably practicable after the filing thereof. Xxxxxxx also agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain all necessary state securities law or “Blue Sky” permits and approvals required to carry out the transactions this Agreement contemplates. After the SEC has declared the Form S-4 effective under the Securities Act, Delaware shall promptly mail at its expense the Proxy Statement/Prospectus to its shareholders.

(b) Each of Delaware and Xxxxxxx agree that none of the respective information supplied or to be supplied by it for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Form S-4 shall, at the time the Form S-4 and each amendment or supplement thereto, if any, becomes effective under the Securities Act, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. Each of Delaware and Xxxxxxx agree that none of the respective information supplied or to be supplied by it for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto shall contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make therein not misleading. Each of Delaware and Xxxxxxx further agree that if such party shall become aware prior to the Effective Time of the Merger of any information furnished by such party that would cause any of the statements in the Form S-4 or the Proxy Statement/Prospectus to be false or misleading with respect to any material fact, or to omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not false or misleading, to promptly inform the other parties thereof and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be filed promptly with the SEC and, to the extent required by law, disseminated to the shareholders of Delaware.

(c) Xxxxxxx agrees to advise Delaware, promptly after Xxxxxxx receives notice thereof, of the time when the Form S-4 has become effective or any supplement or amendment has been filed, of the issuance of any stop order or the suspension of the qualification of Xxxxxxx Common Stock for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, of the initiation or, to the extent Xxxxxxx is aware thereof, threat of any proceeding for any such purpose, or of any request by the SEC for the amendment or supplement of the Form S-4 or for additional information.

(d) Delaware will take all steps necessary under applicable laws to call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its shareholders at such time as may be mutually agreed to by the Parties for the purpose of approving this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and for such other purposes consistent with the complete performance of this Agreement as may be necessary or desirable (the “Delaware Shareholders’ Meeting”), at such time as may be mutually agreed to by the parties (but in no event later than 50 days after the Form S-4 has been declared effective). Delaware may engage a proxy solicitor in connection with the Delaware Shareholders’ Meeting on terms and conditions acceptable to Xxxxxxx. The Board of Directors of Delaware will recommend to its shareholders the approval of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and Delaware will use its best efforts to obtain the necessary approvals by its shareholders of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (x) Delaware has complied in all material respects with its obligations under Section 5.6, (y) Delaware (1) has received a bona fide written proposal for an Acquisition Transaction not solicited in violation of Section 5.6 hereof from a third party that Delaware’s Board of Directors concludes in good faith after consultation with and considering the written advice of outside legal counsel and its financial advisor constitutes a Superior Proposal after giving effect to all of the adjustments that may be offered by Xxxxxxx pursuant to clause (3) below (it being understood that Xxxxxxx has no obligation to make any adjustments), (2) has notified Xxxxxxx, at least five business days in advance, of its intention to withdraw, amend or modify, or propose or resolve to withdraw, amend or modify, the recommendation of Delaware’s Board of Directors that Delaware’s stockholders vote in favor of approval of this Agreement or make any statement in connection with the Delaware

Shareholders’ Meeting inconsistent with such recommendation (collectively, a “Change in Recommendation”), specifying the material terms and conditions of any such Superior Proposal and furnishing to Xxxxxxx a copy of the relevant proposed transaction documents, if such exist, with the person making such Superior Proposal and (3) during the period of not less than five business days following Delaware’s delivery of the notice referred to in clause (2) above and prior to effecting such Change in Recommendation, has negotiated, and has used reasonable best efforts to cause its financial and legal advisors to negotiate, with Xxxxxxx in good faith (to the extent that Xxxxxxx desires to negotiate) to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such proposal for an Acquisition Transaction ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal and (z) Delaware’s Board of Directors, after consultation with and based on the advice of outside legal counsel and its financial advisor, determines in good faith that it would result in a violation of its fiduciary duties under applicable law to recommend this Agreement, then in submitting this Agreement to stockholders at the Delaware Shareholders’ Meeting it may submit this Agreement without recommendation, or following submission of this Agreement to stockholders it may withdraw, amend or modify its recommendation, in which case the Board of Directors may communicate the basis for its lack of a recommendation, or the withdrawal, amendment or modification of its recommendation, to the stockholders in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus or an appropriate amendment or supplement thereto to the extent required by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing shall limit Xxxxxxx’x ability to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(g) hereto or eliminate the right to the payment specified in Section 10.2(b) hereto.

(e) Delaware shall adjourn or postpone the Delaware Shareholders’ Meeting if, as of the time for which such meeting is originally scheduled, there are insufficient shares of Delaware Common Stock represented, either in person or by proxy, to constitute a quorum to conduct the business of such meeting or if Delaware has not received sufficient votes to approve this Agreement.

Section 5.6 No Other Bids. Except with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, Delaware shall not, and shall not permit or authorize any Delaware Subsidiary or any Affiliate thereof, nor any investment banker, attorney, accountant or other representative (collectively, “representative”) retained by Delaware to directly or indirectly (i) initiate, solicit, encourage or otherwise facilitate any inquiries or the making of any proposal or offer that constitutes, or may reasonably be expected to lead to, any “Acquisition Transaction” (as defined below) by any other party, (ii) enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding or furnish any information with respect to, or otherwise cooperate in any way with, any Acquisition Transaction, or (iii) furnish any non-public information that it is not legally obligated to furnish or negotiate or enter into any agreement or contract with respect to any Acquisition Transaction, and shall direct and use its reasonable efforts to cause its Affiliates or representatives not to engage in any of the foregoing. Delaware shall promptly notify Xxxxxxx orally and in writing in the event that it receives any inquiry or proposal relating to any such Acquisition Transaction. Delaware shall immediately cease and cause to be terminated as of the date of this Agreement any existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any other parties conducted heretofore with respect to any of the foregoing. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.6, in the event that, prior to obtaining shareholder approval of the Merger, Delaware receives an unsolicited bona fide written proposal for an Acquisition Transaction not solicited in violation of this Agreement, and the Delaware Board concludes in good faith (after consultation with and considering the written advice of its

outside counsel and financial advisor) (i) it is legally necessary for the proper discharge of its fiduciary duties to respond to such Acquisition Transaction and (ii) such Acquisition Transaction constitutes a “Superior Proposal” (as defined below), Delaware may furnish or cause to be furnished confidential information or data to the third party making such proposal and participate in negotiations or discussions, provided that prior to providing (or causing to be provided) any confidential information or data permitted to be provided pursuant to this sentence, Delaware shall have entered into a confidentiality agreement with such third party on terms no less restrictive to Delaware than the confidentiality agreement with Xxxxxxx, and provided further that Delaware also shall provide to Xxxxxxx a copy of any such confidential information or data that it is providing to any third party pursuant to this Section 5.6 to the extent not previously provided or made available to Xxxxxxx. Delaware shall promptly advise Xxxxxxx orally and in writing of any Acquisition Transaction, the material terms and conditions of any such Acquisition Transaction (including any changes thereto) and the identity of the person making any such Acquisition Transaction. Delaware shall (i) keep Xxxxxxx fully informed in all material respects of the status and details (including any change to the terms thereof) of any Acquisition Transaction, (ii) provide to Xxxxxxx as soon as practicable after receipt or delivery thereof copies of all correspondence and other written material sent or provided to Delaware or any Delaware Subsidiary from any person that describes any of the terms or conditions of any Acquisition Transaction (including any draft acquisition agreement) and (iii) keep Xxxxxxx fully informed in all material respects of the status and details of any determination by Delaware’s Board of Directors with respect to any such Acquisition Transaction.

The term “Acquisition Transaction” shall, with respect to Delaware, mean any proposal for any of the following: (a) a merger or consolidation, or any similar transaction (other than the Merger) of any company with Delaware or any Delaware Subsidiary, (b) a purchase, lease or other acquisition of all or substantially all the assets of Delaware or any Delaware Subsidiary, (c) a purchase or other acquisition of “beneficial ownership” by any “person” or “group” (as such terms are defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (including by way of merger, consolidation, share exchange, or otherwise) which would cause such person or group to become the beneficial owner of securities representing 25% or more of the voting power of Delaware, or (d) a tender or exchange offer to acquire securities representing 25% or more of the voting power of Delaware. “Superior Proposal” means an Acquisition Transaction which the Board of Directors of Delaware reasonably determines (after consultation with its financial advisor or another financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation) and legal counsel to be (i) more favorable to the shareholders of Delaware from a financial point of view than the Merger (taking into account all the terms and conditions of such proposal and this Agreement (including any changes to the financial terms of this Agreement proposed by Xxxxxxx in response to such offer or otherwise)) and (ii) reasonably capable of being completed, taking into account all financial, legal, regulatory and other aspects of such proposal.

pay, and, provided further, that such terminated employees shall enter into a release of claims against Delaware, NBDC Bank, Xxxxxxx and Xxxxx acceptable in form and substance to Xxxxxxx and Xxxxx.

(h) With respect to each Xxxxxxx or Xxxxx employee benefit plan for which length of service is taken into account for any purpose, service with Delaware or NBDC Bank (or predecessor employers to the extent Delaware or NBDC Bank previously has provided past service credit) shall be treated as service with Xxxxxxx and its Subsidiaries for purposes of determining eligibility to participate, vesting, and entitlement to benefits, including for severance benefits and vacation entitlement (but not for accrual of defined benefit pension benefits); provided, however, that such prior service shall not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits. Such prior service credit also shall apply for purposes of satisfying any waiting periods, evidence of insurability requirements, or the application of any preexisting condition limitations, if permitted by the Xxxxxxx or Xxxxx employee benefit plan.

(i) To the extent requested by Xxxxxxx prior to the Closing Date, Delaware and NBDC Bank shall cooperate in good faith with Xxxxxxx to amend, freeze, terminate, modify or fully fund any Delaware Benefit Plan not covered by the subsections of this Section 6.03 in accordance with the terms of such plan or agreement and applicable law, to be effective as of the Effective Time (or at such different time mutually agreed to by the parties), except that the winding up of any such plan or agreement may be completed following the Closing Date. Delaware and NBDC Bank shall provide Xxxxxxx with a copy of the resolutions, plan amendments, notices and other documents prepared to effectuate the actions contemplated by this Section 6.03(i), as applicable, and give Xxxxxxx a reasonable opportunity to comment on such documents (which comments shall be considered in good faith by Delaware and NBDC Bank), and prior to the Closing Date, Delaware and NBDC Bank shall provide Xxxxxxx with the final documentation evidencing that the actions contemplated herein have been effectuated.

(b) After the Effective Time of the Merger, directors, officers and employees of Delaware, except for the indemnification rights provided for in this Section 6.4 above, shall have indemnification rights having prospective application only.

(c) Xxxxxxx shall use its best efforts (and Delaware shall cooperate prior to the Effective Time of the Merger) to maintain in effect for a period of six (6) years after the Effective Time of the Merger Delaware’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy (provided that Xxxxxxx may substitute therefor (i) policies with comparable coverage and amounts containing terms and conditions which are substantially no less advantageous or (ii) with the consent of Delaware (given prior to the Effective Time of the Merger) any other policy with respect to claims arising from facts or events which occurred prior to the Effective Time of the Merger and covering persons who are currently covered by such insurance; provided, that Xxxxxxx shall not be obligated to make an aggregate premium payment for such six (6) year period in respect of such policy (or coverage replacing such policy) which exceeds $60,000.

(i) By the Board of Directors of Delaware, if the Delaware Board of Directors so determines by a majority vote of the members of the entire Delaware Board of Directors, at any time during the five-day period commencing on the Determination Date, such termination to be effective on the 30th day following such Determination Date, if and only if both of the following conditions are satisfied:

(1) the Xxxxxxx Market Value on the Determination Date is less than 80% of the Initial Xxxxxxx Market Value; and

(2) the number obtained by dividing the Xxxxxxx Market Value on the Determination Date by the Initial Xxxxxxx Market Value shall be less than the number obtained by dividing (x) the Final Index Price by (y) the Initial Index Price minus 0.20;

subject, however, to the following three sentences. If Delaware elects to exercise its termination right pursuant to this Section 10.1(i), it shall give prompt written notice thereof to Xxxxxxx. During the five business day period commencing with its receipt of such notice, Xxxxxxx shall have the option, at its sole discretion, of paying additional Merger Consideration by increasing the Stock Consideration to equal the lesser of: (A) the quotient the numerator of which is equal to the product of the Initial Xxxxxxx Market Value, the Stock Consideration (as then in effect), and the Index Ratio minus 0.20, and the denominator of which is the Xxxxxxx Market Value on the Determination Date or (B) the quotient obtained by dividing the Initial Xxxxxxx Market Value by the Xxxxxxx Market Value on the Determination Date and multiplying the quotient by the product of the Stock Consideration (as then in effect) and 0.80. If within such five business day period, Xxxxxxx delivers written notice to Delaware that it intends to proceed with the Merger by paying such additional consideration as contemplated by the preceding sentence, then no termination shall have occurred pursuant to this Section 10.1(i), and this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms (except that the Stock Consideration shall have been so modified).

For purposes of this Section 10.1(i) only, the following terms shall have the meanings indicated below:

If Xxxxxxx or any company belonging to the Index declares or effects a stock dividend, reclassification, recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange of shares or similar transaction between the date of this Agreement and the Determination Date, the prices for the common stock of such company shall be appropriately adjusted for the purposes of applying this Section 10.1(i).

Section 10.2 Effect of Termination; Termination Fee.

(a) In the event of the termination and abandonment of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1, this Agreement shall terminate and have no effect, except as otherwise provided herein and except that the provisions of this Section 10.2, Section 10.5 and Article 11 of this Agreement shall survive any such termination and abandonment.

(b) If, after the date of this Agreement, Xxxxxxx terminates this Agreement in accordance with Section 10.1(g) or Delaware terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(h), Delaware shall be obligated to pay Xxxxxxx a fee of $615,000 as an agreed-upon termination fee in immediately available funds (the “Termination Fee”) within one (1) business day of such termination. In addition, if, after a proposal for an Acquisition Transaction has been publicly announced by any person or entity, Xxxxxxx terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(d) or Section 10.1(e)(ii), Delaware shall be obligated to pay Xxxxxxx the Termination Fee in immediately available funds within one (1) business day of such notice of termination, and if an Acquisition Transaction is consummated or a definitive agreement is entered into by Delaware relating to an Acquisition Transaction, in either case, within eighteen (18) months of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(e)(ii), Delaware shall be obligated to pay Xxxxxxx the Termination Fee, in each case less any amounts previously paid at the time this Agreement was terminated.

(c) Delaware and Xxxxxxx agree that the Termination Fee is fair and reasonable in the circumstances. If a court of competent jurisdiction shall nonetheless, by a final, nonappealable judgment, determine that the amount of any such Termination Fee exceeds the maximum amount permitted by law, then the amount of such Termination Fee shall be reduced to the maximum amount permitted by law in the circumstances, as determined by such court of competent jurisdiction.

Section 10.3 Amendments. To the extent permitted by law, this Agreement may be amended by a subsequent writing signed by each of Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx, Delaware and NBDC Bank.

Section 10.4 Waivers. Subject to Section 11.11 hereof, prior to or at the Effective Time of the Merger, Xxxxxxx, on the one hand, and Delaware, on the other hand, shall have the right to waive any default in the performance of any term of this Agreement by the other, to waive or extend the time for the compliance or fulfillment by the other of any and all of the other’s obligations under this Agreement and to waive any or all of the conditions to its obligations under this Agreement, except any condition, which, if not satisfied, would result in the violation of any law or any applicable governmental regulation.

The representations, warranties, covenants or agreements in this Agreement or in any instrument delivered by Xxxxxxx or Delaware shall not survive the Effective Time of Merger, except that Section 5.4(b), Section 6.4 and Section 10.2 shall survive the Effective Time of the Merger, and any representation, warranty or agreement in any agreement, contract, report, opinion, undertaking or other document or instrument delivered hereunder in whole or in part by any person other than Xxxxxxx, Delaware (or directors and officers thereof in their capacities as such) shall survive the Effective Time of Merger; provided that no representation or warranty of

Xxxxxxx or Delaware contained herein shall be deemed to be terminated or extinguished so as to deprive Xxxxxxx, on the one hand, and Delaware, on the other hand, of any defense at law or in equity which any of them otherwise would have to any claim against them by any person, including, without limitation, any shareholder or former shareholder of either Party. No representation or warranty in this Agreement shall be affected or deemed waived by reason of the fact that Xxxxxxx or Delaware and/or its representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty was, is, might be or might have been inaccurate in any respect.

FORM OF SUPPORT AGREEMENT

March __, 2016

Xxxxxxx Financial Corp.

000 Xxxx Xxxxxx

Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxx 00000

Gentlemen:

Xxxxxxx Financial Corp. (“Xxxxxxx”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Xxxxx Bank (“Xxxxx”), on the one hand and Delaware Bancshares, Inc. (“Delaware”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, The National Bank of Delaware County, Xxxxxx (“NBDC Bank”), have entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of March __, 2016 (the “Agreement”) whereby Delaware will merge with and into Xxxxxxx (the “Merger”) and the shareholders of Delaware will receive the Merger Consideration as set forth in the Agreement. All defined terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Agreement.

In order to induce Xxxxxxx to enter into the Agreement and, intending to be legally bound hereby, I irrevocably agree and represent as follows:

(a) I agree to vote, or cause to be voted, for approval and adoption of the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby all shares of Delaware Common Stock over which I have sole or shared voting power whether now owned or hereafter acquired, and I agree that I shall vote such shares, or cause such shares to be voted against approval or adoption of any other merger, business combination, recapitalization, liquidation or other similar transaction involving Delaware to which Xxxxxxx is not a party thereto and is presented for approval or adoption by the shareholders of Delaware. Beneficial ownership shall have the meaning assigned to it pursuant to Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

(b) Through the earliest to occur of the completion of the Merger or termination of the Agreement in accordance with its terms, I agree (i) not to offer, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any shares of Delaware Common Stock over which I have sole or shared dispositive power, except to the extent permitted by paragraph (f) hereof.

(c) I have beneficial ownership over the number of shares of Delaware Common Stock set forth in Appendix A hereto. I do not hold any options or other rights to acquire Delaware Common Stock.

(d) I agree that Delaware shall not be bound by any attempted sale of any shares of Delaware Common Stock over which I have sole voting and dispositive power, and Delaware’s transfer agent shall be given appropriate stop transfer orders and shall not be required to register any such attempted sale, unless the sale has been effected in compliance with the terms of this Support Agreement.

(e) I represent that I have the capacity to enter into this Support Agreement and that it is a valid and binding obligation enforceable against me in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws affecting creditors’ rights and general equitable principles.

(f) I may transfer any or all of the shares of Delaware Common Stock over which I have beneficial ownership to my spouse, ancestors or descendants; provided, however, that in any such case, prior to and as a condition to the effectiveness of such transfer, each person to which any of such shares or any interest in any of such shares is or may be transferred shall have executed and delivered to Xxxxxxx an

A-1

agreement to be bound by the terms of this Support Agreement. In addition, I may sell, transfer or assign shares of Delaware Common Stock to the extent and on behalf of trusts or estates of which neither I nor my family members are beneficiaries in order to comply with fiduciary obligations or legal requirements.

(g) I agree that I will not make any public statements with respect to the Merger or the Agreement contrary to or inconsistent with the statements made by Delaware in support of the Merger or of the Delaware Board of Directors’ recommendation to shareholders to vote in favor of the Agreement and the Merger. In no event will I recommend or advise any shareholder of Delaware not to vote in favor of the Agreement or the Merger or not to vote their shares at the shareholders’ meeting at which the Agreement will be considered, nor will I recommend or advise any Delaware shareholder to sell their Delaware Common Stock prior to the Effective Time of the Merger. Further, subject to paragraph (i) hereof, I agree that I will not recommend or advise any party to vote shares of Delaware Common Stock at any meeting of shareholders of Delaware for a transaction involving Delaware to which Xxxxxxx is not a party.

(h) I irrevocably agree not to engage in any Competition (as defined below) with Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx, Delaware or NBDC Bank or any affiliate or subsidiary of any of the foregoing (the “Companies”) for a period of eighteen months after the Closing of the Merger. For purposes of this Support Agreement, “Competition” means becoming an employee, an officer, a director, a consultant, an agent, partner, an advisory director, a founder or a shareholder or other equity holder (other than acquisitions of not more than one percent (1%) of the outstanding capital stock of, or a similar equity interest in, a corporation or other entity) or in any other capacity with any business organization that is doing business or intends to do business in the State of New York in the counties of Delaware and Xxxxxxxx or in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in the County of Xxxxx and that is engaged or intends to engage in the provision of financial services to the public, including, but not limited to, accepting retail or commercial deposit accounts, making loans or offering trust services, commercial banking, mortgage banking, lease financing, including but not necessarily limited to commercial banks, savings associations, trust companies, credit unions and parent companies and subsidiary companies of such business entities (collectively, “Financial Services Companies”). Competition shall also mean engaging in efforts to recruit any employee of the Companies or solicit or induce, attempt to solicit or induce, or assist in the solicitation or inducement of any employee of the Companies to terminate his or her employment with the Companies, or otherwise cease his or her relationship with the Companies, or solicit, divert or take away, or attempt to solicit, divert or take away, the business or patronage of any of the clients, customers or accounts of the Companies that were served by the Companies before or after the Closing of the Merger.

Such restriction on Competition shall not (i) be applicable to officers of Delaware and NBDC Bank not serving on the regional advisory board described in the next sentence, (ii) limit my ability to continue to provide legal services or other services to such Financial Services Companies, (iii) limit my ability to lease or sell real property to such entities or (iv) limit my ability to use the banking services of such Financial Services Companies. In exchange for my agreement not to engage in any Competition, as detailed above, and for my service on the regional advisory board during the eighteen-month period immediately following the Closing Date of the Merger, I understand and irrevocably accept that Xxxxxxx will pay me the sum of $1,000 per month for a period of 18 months following the completion of the Merger.

(i) I am signing this Support Agreement solely in my capacity as a shareholder of Delaware, and not in any other capacity, such as a director or officer of Delaware or as a fiduciary of any trusts in which neither I nor my immediate family members are a beneficiary. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary: (a) I make no agreement or understanding herein in any capacity other than in my capacity as a beneficial owner of Delaware Common Stock and (b) nothing herein shall be construed to limit or affect any action or inaction by me or any of my representatives, as applicable, serving on Delaware’s Board of Directors or as an officer of Delaware, acting in my capacity as a director, officer or fiduciary of Delaware or as fiduciary of any trust of which neither I nor my family members are beneficiaries.

This Support Agreement shall be effective upon acceptance by Xxxxxxx. This Support Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect concurrently with, and automatically upon, the earlier to occur of (a) the consummation of the Merger (except that the provisions of Paragraph (h) shall

A-2

survive the consummation of the Merger in accordance with their terms) and (b) any termination of the Agreement in accordance with its terms, except that any such termination shall be without prejudice to Xxxxxxx’x rights arising out of my willful breach of any covenant or representation contained herein.

All notices and other communications in connection with this Support Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given if delivered personally, sent via facsimile, with confirmation, mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or delivered by an express courier, with confirmation, to the parties at their addresses set forth on the signature page hereto.

This Support Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties. This Support Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Support Agreement.

This Support Agreement and all claims arising hereunder or relating hereto, shall be governed and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.
