In general, this power to indemnify does not exist in the case of actions against a director or officer by or in the right of the corporation if the person entitled to indemnification shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent a court determines that the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification. A corporation is required to indemnify directors and officers against expenses they may incur in defending actions against them in such capacities if they are successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of such actions. Section 1746 of the BCL provides that the foregoing provisions shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which a person seeking indemnification may be entitled under, among other things, any bylaw provision, provided that no indemnification may be made in any case where the act or failure to act giving rise to the claim for indemnification is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have constituted willful misconduct or recklessness. Section 1747 of the BCL authorizes a corporation to purchase insurance for directors and other representatives. The foregoing statement is subject to the detailed provisions of Sections 1741 through 1750 of the BCL.</font>

Indemnification
of Directors and Officers
.
﻿
Sections 1741 through 1743 of the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law of 1988, as amended (the
"
BCL
"
), provide that a business corporation may indemnify directors and officers against liabilities they may incur in such capacities provided certain standards are met, including good faith and the belief that the particular action is in the best interests of the corporation. In general, this power to indemnify does not exist in the case of actions against a director or officer by or in the right of the corporation if the person entitled to indemnification shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent a court determines that the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification. A corporation is required to indemnify directors and officers against expenses they may incur in defending actions against them in such capacities if they are successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of such actions. Section 1746 of the BCL provides that the foregoing provisions shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which a person seeking indemnification may be entitled under, among other things, any bylaw provision, provided that no indemnification may be made in any case where the act or failure to act giving rise to the claim for indemnification is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have constituted willful misconduct or recklessness. Section 1747 of the BCL authorizes a corporation to purchase insurance for directors and other representatives. The foregoing statement is subject to the detailed provisions of Sections 1741 through 1750 of the BCL.
﻿
The Registrant's bylaws provide for the indemnification of directors and officers to the extent provided by the BCL. The Registrant's bylaws provide indemnification or reimbursement for reasonable expenses actually incurred by directors or officers.
However, indemnification or reimbursement shall be provided only when a director or officer acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Registrant. Directors and officers are also insured against certain liabilities for their actions, as such, by an insurance policy covering the Registrant and its subsidiaries.

Item 9.
Undertakings.
﻿
(a)
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
﻿
(1)
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this
Registration Statement
:
﻿
(i)
To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act
;
﻿
(ii)
To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the
Registration Statement
(or most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the
Registration Statement
. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the
"
Calculation of Registration Fee
"
table in the effective
Registration Statement
;
﻿
(iii)
To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the
Registration Statement
or any material change to such information in the
Registration Statement
;
﻿
provided
,
however
, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act
that are incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement
.
﻿
(2)
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act
, each post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
Registration Statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
﻿
(3)
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
﻿
(b)
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the
Securities Act
, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act
(and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act)
that is incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement
shall be deemed to be a new
Registration Statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c)
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities, other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act
and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
