The Executive shall not, for the term of this Agreement and until all benefits have been distributed, directly or indirectly, either as an individual or as a proprietor, stockholder, partner, officer, director, employee, agent, consultant or independent contractor of any individual, partnership, corporation or other entity (excluding an ownership interest of one percent (1 %) or less in the stock of a publicly traded company): 7 (i) become employed by, participate in, or be connected in any manner with the ownership, management, operation or control of any bank, savings and loan or any financial institution, as that term is defined in the Gramm-Leach- Bliley Act of 1999, Pub. L. 106-102, that has its main office, a branch office, or conducts any business within a fifty (50) mile radius of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania; or (ii) participate in any way in hiring or otherwise engaging, or assisting any other person or entity in hiring or otherwise engaging, on a temporary, part-time or permanent basis, any individual who was employed by the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries during the three (3) year period immediately prior to the termination of the Executive's employment; or (iii) assist, advise, or serve in any capacity, representative or otherwise, any third party in any action against the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries or transaction involving the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries; or (iv) sell, offer to sell, provide banking or other financial services, assist any other person in selling or providing banking or other financial services, or solicit or otherwise compete for, either directly or indirectly, any orders, contract, or accounts for services of a kind or nature like or substantially similar to the services performed or products sold by the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries (the preceding hereinafter referred to as "Services"), to or from any person or entity from whom the Executive or the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries provided banking or other financial services, sold, offered to sell or solicited orders, contracts or accounts for Services during the three (3) year period immediately prior to the termination of the Executive's employment; or (v) divulge, disclose, or communicate to others in any manner whatsoever, any confidential information of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries, including, but not limited to, the names and addresses of customers of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries, as they may have existed from time to time or of any of the Corporation's or any of its subsidiaries' prospective customers, work performed or services rendered for any customer, any method and/or procedures relating to projects or other work developed for the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries, earnings or other information concerning the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries. The restrictions contained in this subparagraph (v) apply to all information regarding the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries unless and until it becomes known to the general public from sources other than the Executive. 8 5.4.2 JUDICIAL REMEDIES. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Executive of any provision of these restrictions, the Executive recognizes the substantial and immediate harm that a breach or threatened breach will impose upon the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries, and further recognizes that in such event monetary damages may be inadequate to fully protect the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries. Accordingly, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, the Executive consents to the Corporation's or any of its subsidiaries' entitlement to such ex parte, preliminary, interlocutory, temporary or permanent injunctive, or any other equitable relief, protecting and fully enforcing the Corporation's or any of its subsidiaries' rights hereunder and preventing the Executive from further breaching any of his or her obligations set forth herein. The Executive expressly waives any requirement, based on any statute, rule of procedure, or other source, that the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries post a bond as a condition of obtaining any of the above-described remedies. Nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries from pursuing any other remedies available to the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries at law or in equity for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages from the Executive. The Executive expressly acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the restrictions set forth in Section 5.4.1 are reasonable, in terms of scope, duration, geographic area, and otherwise, (ii) the protections afforded the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries in Section 5.4.1 are necessary to protect its legitimate business interest, (iii) the restrictions set forth in Section 5.4.1 will not be materially adverse to the Executive's employment with the Company, and (iv) his or her agreement to observe such restrictions forms a material part of the consideration for this Agreement. 5.4.3 OVERBREADTH OF RESTRICTIVE COVENANT. It is the intention of the parties that if any restrictive covenant in this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be overly broad, then the court should enforce such restrictive covenant to the maximum extent permitted under the law as to area, breadth and duration. 5.4.4 The non-compete provision detailed in Section 5.4.1 shall not be enforceable following a Change in Control. 5.5 SUICIDE OR MISSTATEMENT. No benefits shall be payable if the Executive commits suicide within two years after the date of this Agreement, or if the insurance company denies coverage for material misstatements of fact made by the Executive on any application for life insurance purchased by the Company, or any other reason; provided, however that the Company shall evaluate the reason for the denial, and upon advice of legal counsel and in its sole discretion, consider judicially challenging any denial. The Company shall have no liability to the Executive for any denial of coverage by the insurance company. ARTICLE 6 CLAIMS AND REVIEW PROCEDURES 6.1 CLAIMS PROCEDURE. The Company shall notify any person or entity that makes a claim against the Agreement (the "Claimant") in writing, 9 within ninety (90) days of Claimant's written application for benefits, of his or her eligibility or noneligibility for benefits under the Agreement. If the Company determines that the Claimant is not eligible for benefits or full benefits, the notice shall set forth (1) the specific reasons for such denial, (2) a specific reference to the provisions of the Agreement on which the denial is based, (3) a description of any additional information or material necessary for the Claimant to perfect his or her claim, and a description of why it is needed, and (4) an explanation of the Agreement's claims review procedure and other appropriate information as to the steps to be taken if the Claimant wishes to have the claim reviewed. If the Company determines that there are special circumstances requiring additional time to make a decision, the Company shall notify the Claimant of the special circumstances and the date by which a decision is expected to be made, and may extend the time for up to an additional ninety-day period. 6.2 REVIEW PROCEDURE. If the Claimant is determined by the Company not to be eligible for benefits, or if the Claimant believes that he or she is entitled to greater or different benefits, the Claimant shall have the opportunity to have such claim reviewed by the Company by filing a petition for review with the Company within sixty (60) days after receipt of the notice issued by the Company. Said petition shall state the specific reasons which the Claimant believes entitle him or her to benefits or to greater or different benefits. Within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Company of the petition, the Company shall afford the Claimant (and counsel, if any) an opportunity to present his or her position to the Company orally or in writing, and the Claimant (or counsel) shall have the right to review the pertinent documents. The Company shall notify the Claimant of its decision in writing within the sixty-day period, stating specifically the basis of its decision, written in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant and the specific provisions of the Agreement on which the decision is based. If, because of the need for a hearing, the sixty-day period is not sufficient, the decision may be deferred for up to another sixty-day period at the election of the Company, but notice of this deferral shall be given to the Claimant. ARTICLE 7 AMENDMENTS AND TERMINATION This Agreement may be amended or terminated only by a written agreement signed by the Company and the Executive. ARTICLE 8 MISCELLANEOUS 8.1 BINDING EFFECT. This Agreement shall bind the Executive and the Company, and their beneficiaries, survivors, executors, successors, administrators and transferees. 8.2 NO GUARANTEE OF EMPLOYMENT. This Agreement is not an employment policy or 10 contract. It does not give the Executive the right to remain an employee of the Company, nor does it interfere with the Company's right to discharge the Executive. It also does not require the Executive to remain an employee nor interfere with the Executive's right to terminate employment at any time. 8.3 NON-TRANSFERABILITY. Benefits under this Agreement cannot be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, attached or encumbered in any manner. 8.4 TAX WITHHOLDING.

The Executive and beneficiary are general unsecured creditors of the Company for the payment of benefits under this Agreement. The benefits represent the mere promise by the Company to pay such benefits. The rights to benefits are not subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment, or garnishment by creditors. Any insurance on the Executive's life is a general asset of the Company to which the Executive and beneficiary have no preferred or secured claim. 8.7 RECOVERY OF ESTATE TAXES. If the Executive's gross estate for federal estate tax purposes includes any amount determined by reference to and on account of this Agreement, and if the beneficiary is other than the Executive's estate, then the Executive's estate shall be entitled to recover from the beneficiary receiving such benefit under the terms of the Agreement, an amount by which the total estate tax due by the Executive's estate, exceeds the total estate tax which would have been payable if the value of such benefit had not been included in the Executive's gross estate. If there is more than one person receiving such benefit, the right of recovery shall be against each such person. In the event the beneficiary has a liability hereunder, the beneficiary may petition the Company for a lump sum payment in an amount not to exceed the beneficiary's liability hereunder. 8.8 ENTIRE AGREEMENT.
