DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Form S-8 Registration Statement relates to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed on July 25, 2008 (File No. 333-152542) (the “Registration Statement”) and is being filed for the sole purpose of removing from registration any unsold shares of common stock of Univest Financial Corporation (the “Registrant”), including any related plan interests previously registered under the Registration Statement and that may have been acquired by the Registrant’s employees pursuant to purchases of common stock under the Univest Financial Corporation Deferred Salary Savings Plan (the “Plan”).

On June 20, 2019, the Plan was amended to provide that, effective as of August 1, 2019, Plan contributions may no longer be invested in the Univest Financial Corporation Stock Fund (the “Stock Fund”); however contributions previously invested in the Stock Fund may continue to be held in the Stock Fund. Thus, the Stock Fund has been frozen to new investments as of that date. As a result, no more shares of common stock have been offered or sold under the Plan since such date.

In accordance with the undertakings made by the Registrant in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any of the securities that had been registered for issuance that remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Registrant hereby removes from registration all of such securities registered with respect to the Plan, which remain unsold and unissued under the Registration Statement in connection therewith as of the date hereof.
