Q: HOW DO I VOTE?

A: There are two methods. You may vote by completing and mailing your proxy or by attending the meeting and voting in person. (See page 4 for more details.)

Q: HOW DOES DISCRETIONARY AUTHORITY APPLY?

PROXY STATEMENT

FOR THE ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS OF

MID PENN BANCORP, INC.

APRIL 25, 2006

GENERAL INFORMATION

Date, Time and Place of Annual Meeting

The annual meeting will be held at Mid Penn Bank, 349 Union Street, Millersburg, Pennsylvania 17061, on Tuesday, April 25, 2006, at 10:00 a.m., prevailing time.

Description of Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc.

Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. became a bank holding company under Pennsylvania law and the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 on December 31, 1991. Mid Penn Bank is the corporation’s wholly-owned subsidiary and is a Pennsylvania chartered commercial bank.

We are mailing a copy of the corporation’s Annual Report to Shareholders for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, with this proxy statement. You may obtain a copy of the corporation’s annual report on Form 10-K including the financial statements and exhibits for the 2005 fiscal year at no cost by contacting Alan W. Dakey, President and Chief Executive Officer, 349 Union Street, Millersburg, Pennsylvania 17061, telephone: (717) 692-2133.

We have not authorized anyone to provide you with information about the corporation. You should rely only on the information contained in this document or on information to which we refer. Although we believe we have provided you with all the information helpful to you in your decision to vote, events may occur at Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. subsequent to printing this proxy statement that might affect your decision or the value of your stock.

Additional Information

In accordance with Securities Exchange Act Rule 14a-3(3)(1), Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc., in the future intends to deliver only one annual report and proxy statement to multiple shareholders sharing an address unless we receive contrary instructions from one or more of the shareholders. This method of delivery is known as “householding”. Upon written or oral request, Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. will promptly deliver a separate copy of the annual report or proxy statement, as applicable, to a shareholder at a shared address to which a single copy of the documents was delivered. Further, shareholders can notify Cindy L. Wetzel at Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc., 349 Union Street, Millersburg, Pennsylvania 17061 or by calling (717) 692-2133 and informing us that the shareholder wishes to receive a separate copy of an annual report or proxy statement in

1

VOTING PROCEDURES

Solicitation and Voting of Proxies

The Board of Directors solicits this proxy for use at the corporation’s 2006 annual meeting of shareholders. The corporation’s directors, officers and bank employees may solicit proxies in person or by telephone, facsimile, email or other similar means without additional compensation. The corporation will pay the cost of preparing, assembling, printing, mailing and soliciting proxies and any additional material that the corporation sends to its shareholders. The corporation will make arrangements with brokerage firms and other custodians, nominees, and fiduciaries to forward proxy solicitation materials to the beneficial owners of stock held by these entities. The corporation will reimburse these third parties for their reasonable forwarding expenses.

Only shareholders of record as of the close of business on February 15, 2006, may vote at the annual meeting. The corporation’s records show that, as of the voting record date, 3,188,856 shares of common stock were outstanding. On all matters to come before the annual meeting, shareholders may cast one vote for each share held. Cumulative voting rights do not exist with respect to the election of directors. See “Principal Shareholders” on page 17 for a list of the persons known by the corporation to be beneficial owners of 5% or more of the corporation’s common stock.

If your shares are registered directly in your name with Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc.’s transfer agent, Registrar and Transfer Company, you are considered, with respect to those shares, the shareholder of record, and these proxy materials are being sent directly to you by the corporation. As the shareholder of record, you have the right to grant your voting proxy directly to the proxy holders or to vote in person at the meeting. The corporation has enclosed a proxy for your use.

If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in street name, and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by your broker or nominee which is considered, with respect to those shares, the shareholder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker how to vote and are also invited to attend the meeting. However, because you are not the shareholder of record, you may not vote these shares in person at the meeting. Your broker or nominee has enclosed a voting instruction card for you to use in directing the broker or nominee how to vote your shares.

By properly completing a proxy, the shareholder appoints Roberta A. Hoffman, Randall L. Klinger and Allen J. Trawitz as proxy holders to vote the shares as indicated on the proxy. Proxy holders will vote any signed proxy not specifying to the contrary as follows:

2

FOR the election of Jere M. Coxon, Alan W. Dakey and Guy J. Snyder, Jr. as Class B directors for 3-year terms expiring in 2009; and

FOR the ratification of the selection of Parente Randolph, LLC, as the corporation’s independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006.

The Board of Directors proposes to mail this proxy statement to the corporation’s shareholders on or about March 27, 2006.

Quorum and Vote Required For Approval

In order to hold the annual meeting, a “quorum” of shareholders must be present. Under Pennsylvania law and the corporation’s Bylaws, the presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote is necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the meeting. The proxy holders will count votes withheld and abstentions when determining the presence of a quorum for each matter. The proxy holders will not count broker non-votes when determining the presence of a quorum for the particular matter as to which the broker withheld authority.

If a quorum is present, the three candidates for director receiving the highest number of votes cast by shareholders will be elected. The proxy holders will not cast votes withheld or broker non-votes for the Board’s nominees.

If a quorum is present, ratification of the selection of the independent auditors requires the affirmative vote of a majority of all votes cast by shareholders. Abstentions and broker non-votes are not deemed to constitute “votes cast” and, therefore, do not count either for or against ratification. Abstentions and broker non-votes, however, have the practical effect of reducing the number of affirmative votes required to achieve a majority for the matter by reducing the total number of shares voted from which the required majority is calculated.

Revocability of Proxy

Shareholders of record who sign proxies may revoke them at any time before they are voted by:

• giving written notice of revocation to Cindy L. Wetzel, Secretary of Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc., at 349 Union Street, Millersburg, Pennsylvania 17061;

• executing a later-dated proxy and giving written notice to the Secretary of the corporation; or

• voting in person after giving written notice to the Secretary of the corporation.

You have the right to vote and, if desired, to revoke your proxy any time before the annual meeting. Should you have any questions, please call Cindy L. Wetzel at (717) 692-2133.

GOVERNANCE OF THE CORPORATION

Governance

Our Board of Directors believes that the purpose of corporate governance is to ensure that we maximize shareholder value in a manner consistent with legal requirements and the highest standards of integrity. The Board has adopted and adheres to corporate governance practices, which the Board and senior management believe promote this purpose, are sound and represent best practices. We continually review these governance practices, Pennsylvania law (the state in which we are incorporated), the rules and listing standards of the American Stock Exchange (“AMEX”) and SEC regulations, as well as best practices suggested by recognized goverance authorities.

Currently, our Board of Directors has twelve members. Under the AMEX standards for independence, the following directors meet the standards for independence: Jere M. Coxon, A. James Durica, Robert C. Grubic, Gregory M. Kerwin, Theodore W. Mowery, William G. Nelson, Donald E. Sauve, Edwin D. Schlegel, Guy J. Snyder, Jr. and William A. Specht, III. This constitutes more than a majority of our Board of Directors. Only independent directors serve on our Audit Committee.

The corporation’s Board of Directors oversees all business, property, and affairs of the corporation. The Chairman and the corporation’s officers keep the members of the Board informed of the corporation’s business through meetings and by providing reports and other materials to the members. During fiscal 2005, the corporation’s Board of Directors held 14 meetings. The bank’s Board of Directors also held 14 meetings during fiscal 2005.

4

Code of Ethics

In 2003, as required by law and regulation, the corporation and the bank adopted a Code of Ethics. We amended our Code of Ethics twice in 2005 and again on February 22, 2006. We have filed a copy of the amended Code of Ethics that applies to directors, officers and employees with the SEC as Exhibit 14 to the Form 8-K filed on February 27, 2006. The Code of Ethics encourages individuals to report any conduct that they believe in good faith to be an actual or apparent violation of the Code of Ethics. The Code of Ethics is available on the Investor Relations page of Mid Penn’s website at www.midpennbank.com.

Shareholder Communications

Any shareholder who wishes to communicate with the Board of Directors may send correspondence to Alan W. Dakey, President & CEO, Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. at 349 Union Street, Millersburg, Pennsylvania 17061. Written communications received from shareholders are shared with the full Board or appropriate committee as warranted. The Board does have a complaint procedure for communicating accounting, internal accounting controls and auditing matters. Please refer to the Investor Relations page of Mid Penn’s website at www.midpennbank.com for complete details.

A shareholder who intends to nominate an individual for election to the Board of Directors (other than a candidate proposed by the Board of Directors) must notify the Secretary of the corporation in compliance with the requirements of Article 10, Section 10.1 of the corporation’s Bylaws. Any shareholder who intends to nominate a candidate for election to the Board of Directors must notify the Secretary of the corporation in writing not less than 60 days prior to the date of any shareholder meeting called for the election of directors.

Committees and Meetings of the Corporation’s Board of Directors

During 2005, the Board of Directors of the corporation maintained three standing committees: Audit, Compensation, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees which jointly serve the corporation and the bank. The function of each of these committees is described below.

AUDIT. This committee oversees audit coverage, selects the independent auditors and recommends shareholder ratification of the independent auditors for the year, reviews the annual financial statements of the corporation and auditor’s reports, and monitors with management and the auditor the system of internal controls and its accounting and reporting practices. All members of the Audit Committee are non-employee directors and are independent as defined in Section 121(A) of the AMEX listing standards. A. James Durica serves as the Financial Expert and Chairman of this committee.

NOMINATING AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE. This committee identifies individuals qualified to become Board members, evaluates and selects, or recommends to the Board, director nominees for each election of directors. All members are independent (as

5

independence is currently defined in Section 121(A) of the AMEX listing standards). Edwin Schlegel serves as Chairman of this committee. Mr. Dakey and Mr. Shaffer attend Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee meetings at the request of the committee.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has a charter. Candidates for director must be qualified in terms of education, professional experience, business contacts and special skills. Other less tangible, but equally important, qualifications include general representation from the markets served, enthusiasm, maturity, reputation, compatibility with other Board members, diplomacy and independent judgment. In addition, candidates should have a vested interest in the corporation through ownership of corporation stock. New directors are required to own a minimum of 1,000 shares of Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. common stock or agree to acquire a minimum of 1,000 shares of Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. stock within one year from their date of appointment to the Board of Directors. Additional share ownership is encouraged.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee process for identifying and evaluating nominees consists of compiling a list of nominees recommended by shareholders, Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. directors and individuals who have approached officers and directors for consideration. Information is gathered concerning the potential Board member’s location of business and residence, shares owned, profession or business, and deposit and loan relationship with the bank. Personal information about the individual is also gathered to determine if he/she meets the criteria listed in the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Policy and Charter. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee screens this information to form a smaller number of final candidates to be interviewed. Upon completion of the interviews, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee makes a final recommendation to the full Board of Directors for appointment. All potential candidates are screened by the same process regardless of whether they were recommended by a shareholder or by another party.

COMPENSATION. This committee reviews employee performance evaluations and makes salary recommendations to the Board of Directors. Gregory Kerwin serves as Chairman of this committee. Mr. Dakey and Mr. Shaffer attend Compensation Committee meetings at the request of the committee.

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Qualifications and Nomination of Directors

The corporation’s Bylaws authorize the number of directors to be not less than five (5) nor more than twenty-five (25). The Bylaws also provide for three classes of directors with staggered 3-year terms of office. The Board of Directors nominated the three persons named below to serve as directors until the 2009 annual meeting of shareholders or until their earlier death, resignation, or removal from office. The nominees are presently members of the Board of Directors and have consented to serve another term as a director if re-elected. If the nominees should be unavailable to serve for any reason, a majority of the Board of Directors then in office may select someone to fill the vacancy until the expiration of the term of the class of directors to which he or she is appointed.

The Board of Directors is divided into three classes. Terms of the members of each class expire at successive annual meetings. Currently, Class A consists of four directors, Class B consists of three directors, and Class C consists of five directors. Shareholders will elect three Class B directors at this annual meeting to serve for a 3-year term.

The proxy holders intend to vote proxies for the election of each of the three nominees named below, unless you indicate that your vote should be withheld from any or all of them. Each nominee elected as a director will continue in office until his or her successor has been duly elected and qualified, or until his or her death, resignation, retirement or removal from office.

9

The Board of Directors proposes the following nominees for election as Class B Directors at the annual meeting:

• Jere M. Coxon

Compensation of the Board of Directors

Directors received no remuneration for attendance at the meetings of the Board of Directors of the corporation.

During 2005, Mid Penn Bank directors earned an annual fee of $8,000, except Mr. Shaffer, who in lieu of director fees, received $10,000 compensation for his services as Chairman of the Board. A bonus is payable to directors each year based upon whether the bank meets certain performance criteria, with respect to earnings and growth, as outlined in the bank’s Performance Bonus Plan. Members of all committees received $100 for each meeting attended from January to May 2005. At the bank’s Reorganizational Meeting held in May of 2005, fees were amended for the remainder of the year whereby members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Compensation Committee received $125 for each meeting attended, while members of the Audit Committee received $200 for each meeting attended. Directors who are also officers of the bank are not paid for attending committee meetings. In 2005, the Board of Directors was paid $98,570 in the aggregate, for all Board of Directors’ fees, bonuses and committee meetings attended. In addition, A. James Durica was paid $12,569 in fees for services rendered in his capacity as chairman of the Audit Committee. Theodore Mowery was paid an additional $500 for attending the bank’s Advisory Board Meetings.

11

Mr. Shaffer has a split dollar agreement, which is between Mid Penn Bank and Mr. Shaffer, and a death benefit plan and agreement, which is between Mid Penn Bank and the trustee of the Eugene F. Shaffer Irrevocable Trust. Under the agreements, the bank agreed to provide $1,000,000 in insurance coverage to Eugene F. Shaffer’s trust in recognition of Mr. Shaffer’s years of service as Chairman and President of both the corporation and the bank.

The bank maintains a deferred fee plan for outside directors, which enables a director to defer payment of his fees until he leaves the Board. The following are the current directors and their respective contributions for 2005: Theodore Mowery: $8,805, William Nelson: $2,000, Donald Sauve: $8,000, Edwin Schlegel: $8,000, and Guy Snyder, Jr.: $8,000. Deferred director fees paid to retired directors during 2005 totaled $11,953.

In May 1995, the Mid Penn Bank directors adopted a retirement bonus plan. The plan pays a retirement bonus to directors who voluntarily retire from service, or who have attained the Board’s retirement policy age of 70. The retirement bonus is determined by multiplying the “base retirement bonus” for the member’s position ($400 for the Chairman, $200 for all other directors) by the number of full years the member served. No portion of the payment under this plan is assignable. The plan contains an inflationary adjustment provision and provides for survivor benefits. Payments due under the plan are paid quarterly. Earl Etzweiler, Harvey Hummel, Charles Lebo, Warren Miller and Charles Phillips received a total of $23,099 under this plan in 2005.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE

REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The corporation’s officers and employees are not compensated by the corporation. Mid Penn Bank, the wholly-owned bank subsidiary of Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc., provides compensation to the employees of the bank. The Board of Directors, acting in the best interests of the corporation’s shareholders, customers, and the communities it serves, is responsible for providing compensation to all employees based on the individual’s contribution and personal performance. The Compensation Committee administers the compensation program. The committee strives to offer a fair and competitive compensation policy to govern executive officers’ base salaries and incentive plans and to attract and maintain competent, dedicated, and ambitious managers whose efforts will enhance the products and services of the corporation and of the bank, resulting in higher profitability, increased dividends to the corporation’s shareholders and appreciation in market value of the corporation’s common stock.

The compensation of the bank’s top executives is reviewed and approved annually by the Board of Directors upon the recommendations of the Compensation Committee. As a guideline for determining base salaries, the committee uses the Salary/Benefits Survey published by L.R. Webber Associates, Inc. This peer group of banks with assets ranging from $300 million to $499 million by region is different from the peer group used for the performance graph. The committee uses this peer group of banks because of common industry issues and competition for the same executive talent group.

12

The committee does not deem Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code to be applicable to the corporation at this time. The committee intends to monitor the future application of Section 162(m) to the compensation paid to its executive officers and, in the event that this section becomes applicable to the corporation, the committee intends to amend the bank’s compensation plans to preserve the deductibility of compensation payable thereunder.

Chief Executive Officer Compensation

The Board of Directors determined the bank’s Chief Executive Officer’s 2005 compensation of $181,614 comprised of his annual cash salary, cash bonus and incentives, exclusive of director’s fees, to be appropriate in light of the corporation’s 2005 performance. The bank maintains an executive deferred compensation plan which allows Mr. Dakey to defer compensation for a specified period in order to provide future retirement income. During 2005, Mr. Dakey deferred $10,000 in bonus compensation. The 2005 compensation represents the combined salary, bonus and incentives reported on the Summary Compensation Table. No direct correlation exists between the Chief Executive Officer’s compensation and any specific performance criteria, nor is any weight given by the committee to any specific individual criteria. The Chief Executive Officer’s compensation is based on the committee’s subjective determination after review of all information that it deems relevant.

Executive Officer Compensation

The committee bases compensation increases to executive officers on subjective analysis of each individual’s contribution to the bank. The Board of Directors considers numerous factors in determining compensation increases including:

• the bank’s earnings;

• return on assets;

• return on equity;

• market share;

• total assets; and

• loans.

Although performance and increases in compensation were measured by these factors, among others, no direct correlation formula exists between any specific criterion and an employee’s compensation. The committee’s analysis did not provide a specific weight to any criteria. The committee’s determination is subjective after review of all information deemed relevant.

Individuals are reviewed annually on a calendar basis. Total compensation opportunities available to bank employees are influenced by general market conditions, specific individual responsibilities and the individual’s contributions to the bank’s success. The bank strives to offer compensation that is competitive with that offered by employers of comparable size in the banking industry. The corporation strives to meet its strategic goals and objectives to its constituencies and to provide fair and meaningful compensation to its employees.

Change of Control Agreement

In January 1999, the corporation, the bank and the executive Alan W. Dakey entered into a change of control agreement. The agreement defines certain retirement benefits the corporation and the bank will pay to the named executive in the event of a change of control. The benefits were granted in order to recognize the past and present service of the executive and to provide incentive for his continued valued service. The agreement continues until such time as either party gives the other written notice of termination of employment with, or without, cause. The agreement is not intended to affect the employment status of the executive in the absence of a change of control.

In the event of a change of control, the executive is entitled to receive an annual payment equal to his normal retirement benefit as described in a salary continuation agreement dated January 1, 1999, between Mr. Dakey and Mid Penn Bank. This benefit is payable for 15 years in equal monthly installments, commencing with the month following normal retirement age. Mr. Dakey also participates in the Profit Sharing Retirement Plan described below, which does not have a change of control provision.

Profit Sharing Retirement Plan

The corporation does not maintain a defined benefit pension plan. The bank, however, maintains the Employee Profit Sharing Retirement Plan, created in 1949, restated in 1994, and last amended in 2003, which covers all bank employees who meet eligibility requirements. Eligible employees are entitled to receive a share of the bank’s contribution to the plan if they are bank employees on December 31st.

The annual contribution is determined by the bank’s Board of Directors and is contingent upon current or accumulative profits of the bank with the total amount of the annual contribution not to exceed 15% of the total eligible compensation paid by the bank to all participating employees. A participating employee’s share of such annual contribution is allocated on the basis of the participating employee’s eligible compensation up to $210,000 as compared to the total eligible compensation of all the participating employees. The contributions to the plan are paid to a trust fund that is administered by the bank’s Trust Department. A participating employee is allocated a share of the net income of the trust fund and the increase or decrease in the fair market value of its assets on the basis of such employee’s beginning of the plan year account balance, plus forfeitures of unvested balances from employees who terminated employment, less any payments as compared to the total beginning account balances, less payments to all the participating employees. A notice of the account balance is given to participating employees annually.

15

Distributions under the plan can be made to participating employees upon retirement, either normal or early retirement as defined in the plan, at death or disability of the participating employee or upon severing employment if either partially or fully vested. The plan provides for percentage vesting of 20% for the first full three years of service increasing annually thereafter to 100% vesting after seven full years of participation. The plan provides for an accelerated vesting schedule in the event it becomes top-heavy.

Management cannot determine the extent of the benefits that any participating employee may be entitled to receive under the plan on the date of termination of employment because the amount of the benefits is dependent, among other things, upon the bank’s future earnings, the participants’ future compensation and the future earnings of the plan’s trust fund. As of December 31, 2005, the total market value of the Employee Profit Sharing Retirement Fund was approximately $4,758,099. As of December 31, 2005, there were 9,840 shares of Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. common stock in the plan, and the market value of these shares was $25.55 per share for a total of $251,401.

Contributions the bank paid to the plan were $277,004 for 2005. The bank contributed $14,950 in 2005 to the plan for Mr. Dakey, President and Chief Executive Officer of the corporation and the bank and $9,850 for Mr. Williams, Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer of the bank. As of February 15, 2006, Mr. Dakey had 13 years of credited service under the plan and Mr. Williams had 5 years of credited service under the plan.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan

Effective January 1, 1998, the Board of Directors adopted the Mid Penn Bank Employee Stock Ownership Plan for all bank employees and its subsidiaries who satisfy length of service requirements. The Plan was last amended in 2003. Participants do not contribute to the plan. Each year the bank may, in its discretion, contribute to the ESOP. In 2005, the bank contributed $138,502 to the plan. The bank contributed $7,475 in 2005 to the plan for Mr. Dakey, President and Chief Executive Officer of the corporation and the bank and $4,925 for Mr. Williams, Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer of the bank.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

During 2005, the bank purchased Directors and Officers Liability Insurance from Progressive Insurance through Gunn-Mowery, LLC. Theodore Mowery serves as a director of the corporation and the bank and is a partner with Gunn-Mowery, LLC. The amount of the three-year premium totaled $86,393. Competitive bids were solicited, with Gunn Mowery, LLC submitting the lowest bid. Mr. Mowery did not participate in discussions regarding this matter and abstained from voting on the insurance proposals. Neither the corporation nor the bank have entered into any other material transactions, proposed or consummated, with any other director or executive officer of Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. or Mid Penn Bank, or any associate of the foregoing persons. The corporation and the bank have engaged in and intend to continue to engage in banking and financial transactions in the ordinary course of business with directors and officers and their associates on comparable terms with similar interest rates as those prevailing from time to time for other customers.

16

Total loans outstanding from the corporation and the bank at December 31, 2005, to the corporation’s and the bank’s officers and directors as a group, members of their immediate families and companies in which they had an ownership interest of 10% or more amounted to $2,528,000, or approximately 7.87% of the bank’s total equity capital. At February 15, 2006, total loans outstanding for the same group and the two newly appointed Board members totaled $5,787,000 or 18.01% of the bank’s total equity capital. The bank made these loans in the ordinary course of business, on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other persons. The loans did not involve more than the normal risk of collection or present other unfavorable features.

COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(a) REPORTING

Officers, directors, and greater than 10% shareholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish the corporation with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Based solely on our review of the copies of these forms, or written representations from certain reporting persons that no Forms 5 were required for those persons, Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. believes that during the period from January 1, 2005, through December 31, 2005, its officers and directors complied with all applicable filing requirements.

SHAREHOLDER RETURN PERFORMANCE GRAPH

Set forth below is a line graph comparing the yearly change in the cumulative total shareholder return on Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc.’s common stock against the cumulative total return of the NASDAQ Composite Index and the Mid-Atlantic Custom Peer Group Index for the period of five fiscal years commencing December 31, 2000, and ending December 31, 2005. The graph shows that the cumulative investment return to shareholders, based on the assumption that a $100 investment was made on December 31, 2000, in each of the corporation’s capital stock, the NASDAQ Composite Index and the Mid-Atlantic Custom Peer Group Index, and that all dividends were reinvested in such securities over the past five years, the cumulative total return on such investment would be $222.27, $91.54 and $222.32, respectively. The shareholder return shown on the graph below is not necessarily indicative of future performance.

RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

The Audit Committee anticipates selecting Parente Randolph, LLC as independent certified public accountants for the examination of its financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006. Parente Randolph, LLC served as the company’s certified public accountants for the year ended December 31, 2005.

The Board of Directors of the corporation believes that Parente Randolph, LLC’s knowledge of Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. and Mid Penn Bank is invaluable. Parente Randolph, LLC advised us that none of its members has any financial interest in the corporation or the bank. They assisted us with the preparation of our federal and state tax returns and provided assistance in connection with regulatory matters, charging for such services at its customary hourly billing rates. The corporation’s and the bank’s Board of Directors approved these non-audit services after due consideration of the accountants’ objectivity and after finding them to be wholly independent.

We do not expect a representative of Parente Randolph, LLC to be present at the Annual Meeting to respond to appropriate questions or to make a statement.

In the event that the shareholders do not ratify the selection of Parente Randolph, LLC as independent auditors for the 2006 fiscal year, the Audit Committee may choose another accounting firm to provide independent public accountant/audit services for the 2006 fiscal year.

The majority of shares present, in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote at the annual meeting must vote in the affirmative to ratify Parente Randolph, LLC as independent auditors for 2006.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR the ratification of Parente Randolph, LLC as independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006.

SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS FOR 2007 ANNUAL MEETING

In order for a shareholder proposal to be considered for inclusion in Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc.’s proxy statement for next year’s annual meeting, the written proposal must be received by the corporation no later than November 28, 2006. All proposals must comply with the Securities and Exchange Commission regulations regarding the inclusion of shareholder proposals in company-sponsored proxy materials. If a shareholder proposal is submitted to the corporation after November 28, 2006, it is considered untimely; and, although the proposal may be considered at the annual meeting, the corporation is not obligated to include it in the 2007 proxy statement. Similarly, in compliance with the corporation’s Bylaws, shareholders wishing to nominate a candidate for election to the Board of Directors, must notify the corporation’s Secretary in writing no later than 60 days in advance of the meeting. Shareholders must deliver any proposals or nominations in writing to the Secretary of Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. at its principal executive office, 349 Union Street, Millersburg, Pennsylvania 17061. See page 5 for more information about nominations to the Board of Directors.

21

OTHER MATTERS THAT MAY COME BEFORE THE ANNUAL MEETING

The Board of Directors knows of no matters other than those discussed in this proxy statement or referred to in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders that properly may come before the annual meeting. However, if any other matter should be properly presented for consideration and voting at the annual meeting or any adjournments of the meeting, the persons named as proxy holders will vote the proxies in what they determine to be the best interest of Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc.

AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER

PURPOSE

The Audit Committee is appointed by the Board of Directors of Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc., herein referred to as “Bank,” and serves the holding company and all subsidiaries. The primary function of the Audit Committee “Committee” is to assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its statutory and fiduciary responsibilities with respect to internal controls, accounting policies, and auditing and financial reporting practices. The Audit Committee assists the Board of Directors in its oversight of:

• The integrity of the Bank’s financial statements

• Compliance with legal and regulatory requirements

• The independent public accountant’s qualification and independence, and

• The performance of the independent public accountants and the Bank’s internal audit function.

COMPOSITION OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The committee will be comprised of three or more directors as determined by the Board of Directors. The members of the Committee will meet the independence and experience requirements as directed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the American Stock Exchange. The members of the Committee will be comprised of directors who are independent of the management of the bank and are free of any relationship that, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, would interfere with their exercise of independent judgment as an audit committee member. The members of the Committee will be elected annually at the organizational meeting of the full Board of Directors and will be listed in the annual report to shareholders. The Board will elect one of the members of the Committee as Committee Chairperson. The Committee will meet as often as necessary to fulfill its duties and responsibilities, but not less frequently than four times a year, normally once each quarter.

The Committee shall have at least one member serve as a “financial expert” as required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Bank is required to disclose in the annual and quarterly reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) whether or not the Committee includes at least one member who is a “financial expert” and, if not, must disclose the fact and explain why it does not have an expert serving on the Committee.

INDEPENDENT AUTHORITY OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Committee is authorized to engage independent counsel and other advisors as the Committee determines necessary to carry out its duties, and the Bank must provide appropriate funding, as the Committee determines necessary, to compensate the independent auditor and its advisors.
