ITEM 8.01
Other Events
   
In the joint proxy statement/prospectus distributed to the shareholders of Chemung Financial Corporation (“Chemung”) and Fort Orange Financial Corp. (“FOFC”) in connection with the planned merger of FOFC with and into CFC (the “Merger”), filed as part of the Registration Statement on Form S-4 as amended, CFC and FOFC disclosed that on January 31, 2011, the amount of FOFC Delinquent Loans (as defined in the Merger Agreement dated as of October 14, 2010, as amended) was $7.86 million, and that “…if the amount of Delinquent Loans remains at or about the current level at the end of the month prior to the Effective Time, then the Cash Consideration and the Stock Consideration would be reduced.”

Specifically, this meant that if FOFC Delinquent Loans remained at their January 31, 2011 levels on March 31, 2011, which is the last day of the month before the planned closing of the Merger on April 8, 2011, the amounts of cash and stock received by FOFC shareholders would have been reduced, as described in the joint proxy statement/prospectus.

At March 31, 2011, the amount of FOFC Delinquent Loans had improved from their levels at February 28, 2011 to $6.25 million. This means that if the Merger closes in April, as planned, the Cash Consideration and Stock Consideration to be received by FOFC shareholders would not be subject to a downward adjustment based on the level of FOFC Delinquent Loans. The Cash Consideration will be $7.50 for each share of FOFC common stock exchanged in the Merger and the Stock Consideration will be based on an exchange ratio of 0.3571 of a share of Chemung common stock, subject only to adjustment based on the closing price of Chemung common stock for the ten (10) trading days immediately prior to the closing of the Merger.
