Item 4.
Purpose of Transaction
 
This is the PL Capital Group’s eighth amendment to its initial Schedule 13D filing.  The PL Capital Group acquired shares of Common Stock because it believes that the Common Stock is undervalued.
 
The PL Capital Group nominated Mr. Palmer as a nominee for election as a director at the Company’s 2010 Annual Shareholder Meeting, and Mr. Palmer was elected by the shareholders at the 2010 Annual Shareholder Meeting to serve a three-year term as a director.  For copies of the PL Capital Group’s correspondence with the Company related to the proxy contest, the shareholder derivative demand and certain other corporate governance items see Exhibit 2, Exhibit 3, Exhibit 4, Exhibit 5, Exhibit 6, Exhibit 7, Exhibit 8, Exhibit 9, Exhibit 10, Exhibit 11, Exhibit 12, Exhibit 13, Exhibit 14, Exhibit 15 and Exhibit 16 attached hereto.
 
In connection with this proxy contest, the PL Capital Group requested reimbursement from the Company for its out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with its efforts to nominate and elect Mr. Palmer to the Company’s Board of Directors.  After discussions between the PL Capital Group and the Company, the parties entered into a Standstill Agreement dated November 18, 2010 (the “Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company will reimburse the PL Capital Group for its out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the proxy contest in an amount equal to $150,000 and cause Mr. Palmer to be reelected to the Board of Directors of Citizens Financial Bank during the term of the Agreement.

In turn, during the term of the Agreement, the PL Capital Group has agreed, among other things, to vote its shares of Common Stock in favor of the directors nominated by the Company’s Board of Directors, and not to take certain actions related to control of the Company.  A copy of the Agreement is attached as Exhibit 17 hereto.
 
Members of the PL Capital Group may make further purchases of shares of Common Stock.  Members of the PL Capital Group may dispose of any or all the shares of Common Stock held by them, subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement.
 
To the extent the actions described herein may be deemed to constitute a “control purpose” with respect to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the regulations thereunder, the PL Capital Group has such a purpose.  Except as noted in this Schedule 13D, no member of the PL Capital Group has any plans or proposals, which relate to, or would result in, any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (b) through (j), inclusive of Item (4) of Schedule 13D.  Such individuals may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their positions and formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto.
 
Item 5.
Interest in Securities of the Company
