This Agreement shall be binding upon Company and its successors and assigns, including, but not limited to, any that occur as a result of a Change of Control, and shall inure to the benefit of Company, its present and future Subsidiaries, Affiliates, successors and assigns including any transferee of the business operation, as a going concern, in which Executive is employed and shall be binding upon Executive, Executive’s heirs and personal representatives. None of the rights or obligations of Executive hereunder may be assigned or delegated, except that in the event of Executive’s death or Disability, any rights of Executive hereunder shall be transferred to Executive’s estate or personal representative, as the case may be. Company may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement in whole or in part to any one or more Affiliates or successors, but no such assignment shall relieve Company of its obligations to Executive if any such assignee fails to perform such obligations.

          (e) Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original as against any party whose signature appears thereon, and all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement shall become binding when one or more counterparts hereof, individually or taken together, shall bear the signatures of all of the parties reflected hereon as the signatories.

          (f) Provisions Separable. The provisions of this Agreement are independent of and separable from each other, and no provision shall be affected or rendered invalid or unenforceable by virtue of the fact that for any reason any other or others of them may be invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part.

          (g) Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the employment of Executive by Company, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings, inducements or conditions, express or implied, oral or written, except as herein contained. The express terms hereof control and supersede any course of performance and/or usage of the trade inconsistent with any of the terms hereof. This Agreement may not be modified or amended other than by an agreement in writing signed by the parties hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall limit the application of any generally applicable Company policy, practice, plan or the terms of any manual or handbook applicable to Company’s Executive Officers generally, except to the extent the foregoing directly conflict with this Agreement, in which case the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.

          (h) Section Headings. The Section headings in this Agreement are for convenience only; they form no part of this Agreement and shall not affect its interpretation.

          (i) Number of Days. Except as otherwise provided herein, for example, in the context of vacation days, in computing the number of days for purposes of this Agreement, all days shall be counted, including Saturdays, Sundays and holidays; provided, however, that if the final day of any time period falls on a Saturday, Sunday or holiday (on which federal banks are or may elect to be closed), then the final day shall be deemed to be the next day which is not a Saturday, Sunday or such holiday.

          (j) Gender, Etc. Words used herein, regardless of the number and gender specifically used, shall be deemed and construed to include any other number, singular or plural, and any other gender, masculine, feminine or neuter, as the context indicates is appropriate.

          (k) Dispute Resolution. If there is any disagreement between Executive and Company relating to this Employment Agreement, except for the ability of the parties to seek a preliminary or permanent injunction as provided above, which need not be discussed between the parties or arbitrated, upon notice by either party to the other the parties shall meet to attempt to resolve such disagreement. The time for such meeting shall be as mutually agreed upon by the parties or, if there is no such agreement, 15 business days after written notice has been sent to the other party. If the parties fail to resolve the dispute within such 15 day period, either party may serve notice in writing upon the other party requesting arbitration, which notice shall specify in reasonable detail the nature of the dispute. Any arbitration under this Section 14(k) shall be held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania or such other place as shall be mutually agreed to by the parties, and conducted in accordance with the procedures set forth hereafter and, to the extent not inconsistent with this Section 14(k), in accordance with the Employment Dispute Resolution Rules of the American Arbitration Association in effect on the Effective Date. This Agreement shall supplement but not supersede the Employment Dispute Resolution Rules of the American Arbitration Association.

               (i) Any arbitration under this Section 14(k) shall be before an arbitrator who shall be experienced in the area of employment law. The arbitrator shall be selected by the parties from lists provided by the American Arbitration Association. The parties agree to exchange all relevant documents prior to any hearing, and further agree that any dispute over such exchange may be submitted to the arbitrator for decision, which decision shall be binding on the parties. The parties further agree to exchange hearing exhibits and designations of witnesses to be called at the hearing at least ten calendar days before any hearing as a party may not offer at the hearing as part of its direct case any witness, evidence or document not so disclosed, unless such witness(es), evidence or document(s) became available and/or known to the party who wishes to introduce such witness(es), evidence and/or document(s) within the ten calendar days prior to the arbitration, and such witness(es), evidence or document(s) is immediately provided to the arbitrator and the other party, or unless the evidence is for rebuttal or impeachment purposes and its need was not anticipated or foreseen before the hearing.

               (ii) Within 60 days after the production of all documents, evidence and witness list as outlined in the preceding section, the arbitrator shall conduct the arbitration hearing. Each party will have one day to present its case, unless, upon request the arbitrator determines that more or less time is appropriate. Within 30 days of the arbitration hearing, the arbitrator shall render a decision in writing to each party. The parties have a right to request an opportunity to submit to the arbitrator post-hearing briefs and supporting documentation.

               (iii) Any arbitration award must (i) be rendered in accordance with applicable law as described in this Agreement and (ii) be set forth in a written decision which sets forth the reasons (including, without limitation, the conclusions of fact and/or law) upon which such award is rendered. Judgment upon an arbitration award may be rendered in any court of competent jurisdiction or application may be made to any such state or federal court of competent jurisdiction for judicial acceptance of an order to enforcement of or to vacate an arbitration award, as the case may be. Subject to any order vacating the arbitration award: (i) any arbitration award shall be final and binding on the parties; and (ii) once an issue has been arbitrated pursuant hereto, the decision of the arbitrator shall be res judicata with respect to such issue.

               (iv) The arbitrator shall have the power to issue subpoenas compelling testimony and/or the production of documents from any person whether or not a party hereto, which subpoenas shall be enforceable in all courts of competent jurisdiction in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. In addition, the arbitrator and attorney-of-record shall have the power to request through the above-mentioned courts of competent jurisdiction the taking of depositions from any person, not a party or a director, officer, executive, employee or agent of a party, who cannot be subpoenaed or is unable to attend the arbitration, whose testimony the arbitrator deems both important and relevant to the resolution of the issues presented for arbitration.

               (v) The cost of the arbitration and all attorney fees shall be borne by the parties in such proportion as the arbitrator shall direct, with such arbitrator to give due consideration to the fault of the parties.

               (vi) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties need not arbitrate any request for preliminary or permanent injunctive relief, and such relief may be sought by either party in any court of competent jurisdiction in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.

          (l) Jurisdiction of Courts. Any legal suit, action, claim, or proceeding arising out of or relating to Sections 11 or 12 of this Agreement may be instituted in any court in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, and each of the parties hereto waives any objection which party may now or hereafter have to such venue of any such suit, action, claim, proceeding or investigation, and irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any such court. Any and all service of process and any other notice in any such suit, action, claim, or proceeding shall be effective against any party, if given in accordance with Section 14(c), hereof if for any reason such service of process by mail is ineffective, then Company shall be deemed to have appointed Julie H. Wilson, Esquire, Ledgewood, P.C., 1900 Market Street, Suite 750, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103, as the authorized agent of Company to accept and acknowledge, on behalf of Company, service of any and all process which may be served in any such suit, action, claim, or proceeding. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to affect the right of any party to serve process in any manner permitted by law

          (m) Survival. All provisions of this Agreement which by their terms survive the termination of Executive’s employment with Company, including without limitation the covenants of Executive set forth in Sections 11 and 12 and the obligations of Company to make and provide

any post-termination payments and benefits under this Agreement, shall survive termination of Executive’s employment by Company and shall remain in full force and effect thereafter in accordance with their terms.

          (n) Release Agreement. It is expressly understood and acknowledged by Company and Executive that the Release Agreement required pursuant to Sections 5(d), 10(a) and 10(d) hereof shall not contain any post-employment restrictions other than those contained Sections 11 and 12 hereof.

          (o) Interest on Amounts Owed. In the event that Company shall fail or refuse to make payment of any amount due Executive under this Agreement within the time period provided herein, Company shall pay to Executive, in addition to the payment of any other sums provided in this Agreement: (i) interest, compounded quarterly, on any amount remaining unpaid from the date payment is required under this Agreement until paid to Executive, at the rate from time to time announced by The Wall Street Journal as the “prime rate” plus three percent (3%), each change in such rate to take effect on the effective date of the change of such prime rate; and (ii) on demand, the amount necessary to reimburse Executive in full for all expenses (including all attorneys’ fees and costs) incurred by Executive enforcing any of the obligations of Company under this Agreement.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have duly executed and delivered this Agreement in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania as of the date first above written.
