AND

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, Joseph I Limited Partnership, a Pennsylvania limited partnership (the "Ground Lessor") is the title owner of a certain tract or parcel of land located in Lower Nazareth Township, Northampton County, Pennsylvania, as more particularly described in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and made a part hereof (the “Ground Lease Premises”); and

WHEREAS, Ground Lessor has leased to Assignor and Assignor has leased from Ground Lessor the Ground Lease Premises pursuant to a certain “Shopping Center Lease” dated March 13, 2009, as assigned to and assumed by Lessor (collectively, the “Ground Lease”). The Ground Lease is attached hereto as Exhibit “B” and incorporated herein by reference; and

WHEREAS, Lessee has assigned to Lessor, and Lessor assumed, all of Lessee’s rights and obligations as Tenant under the Ground Lease by an Assignment, Assumption and Modification of Ground Lease dated October _26_, 2009 (the “Assignment”); and

WHEREAS, Lessee has requested that Lessor construct on the Ground Lease Premises a bank building in accordance with the Tenant’s Plans as described in the Ground Lease; which improved Ground Lease Premises the Lessee will then lease from Lessor.

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto, in consideration of the covenants and agreements herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

1. IMPROVED LEASE PREMISES. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Lease, Lessor hereby leases to Lessee and Lessee hereby leases from Lessor the Ground Lease Premises, together with the improvements to be constructed thereon (collectively, the “Improved Lease Premises”) as provided herein. Lessor will complete the improvements to the Ground Lease Premises in accordance with the Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit “C” and incorporated herein. Lessee agrees to the terms and conditions set forth on Exhibit “C” hereto. Lessee acknowledges and agrees that this Lease shall be in all respects subject to the terms and conditions of the Ground Lease, provided however that in no event shall the Lessee hereunder be entitled to exercise any right of first refusal granted in the Ground Lease unless expressly assigned by Lessor to Lessee.

2. TERM.

(a) The term of this Lease for the Improved Lease Premises (the “Term”) shall be nine (9) years commencing on the date Lessor has substantially completed the improvements in accordance with the Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit “C” and a certificate of occupancy is issued by the applicable municipal authority (the "Commencement Date") and ending at midnight on the day preceding the ninth (9th) anniversary of the Commencement Date.

(b) Provided that Lessee shall not then be in default hereunder, Lessee shall have the option to extend the Term of this Lease for one (1) renewal term of six (6) years, followed by two (2) successive renewal terms of five (5) years each, followed by one (1) additional renewal period of four (4) years and eleven (11) months (each, a “Renewal Term”), on the same terms and conditions set forth herein and with the rental for each Renewal Term continuing to increase at the rate of two and one-half percent (2-1/2%) per year such that the rental for each lease year during any Renewal Term shall be 102.5% of the rental for the immediately preceding lease year as set forth on Exhibit “D” hereto. Lessee’s extension rights provided herein shall be deemed exercised unless Lessee gives Lessor written notice of its election not to extend the term of this Lease no later than eight (8) months prior to the expiration of the then-current Term or any Renewal Term.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Lease shall automatically and without further action terminate upon termination of the Ground Lease, unless Lessor shall have acquired fee simple title to the Improved Lease Premises.

(d) Notwithstanding the Commencement Date of the Term, Lessee shall be bound by all of the terms and conditions hereof, from and after the date of execution of this Lease.

3. USE. Lessee shall use the Improved Lease Premises as an Embassy Bank or any successor bank or, with Lessor’s and Ground Lessor’s prior written consent, for any other lawful purpose permitted under zoning and other applicable laws, ordinances, and regulations. Lessee shall comply in all respects with the use provisions set forth in Article V of the Ground Lease.

4. RENT.

(a) Until the Commencement Date, Lessee shall pay to Ground Lessor all rents and other sums due (whether to Ground Lessor or third parties) under the Ground Lease. In the event that at the Commencement Date, Lessee shall have previously paid rent to the Ground Lessor pursuant to the Ground Lease for the period of the first month’s rent hereunder, Lessee shall be entitled to a pro-rata, dollar-for-dollar credit against the rent due hereunder for such amount paid under the Ground Lease.

(b) During the first year of the Term, Lessee shall pay to Lessor as minimum annual rent the sum of One Hundred Sixty-five Thousand Four Hundred Twenty Dollars ($165,420.00), payable in equal monthly installments of Thirteen Thousand Seven Hundred Eighty-five Dollars ($13,785.00) each. Thereafter, for each Lease year during the Term and any Renewal Term, minimum annual rent shall equal the minimum annual rent payable in the immediately preceding Lease year, multiplied by 102.5% (e.g., the prior year’s rental plus an increase of 2.5%) as set forth in Exhibit “D” attached hereto. Such minimum annual rent shall be payable in advance, in equal monthly installments on the first day of each calendar month during the Term and any Renewal Term hereof, without demand, offset or deduction, and shall be payable in lawful money of the United States of America. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee acknowledges and agrees that the minimum annual rent for the first year of the Term is subject to adjustment in the event of modification of the scope of Lessor Work as set forth in the Work Letter attached hereto as Exhibit “C” and/or unforeseen subsurface conditions, provided that such adjustment shall be limited to the actual cost of the additional Lessor Work undertaken and the actual construction management fees applicable thereto.

(c) This Lease is intended to be a "triple net" lease. Accordingly, Lessee agrees to pay as additional rent, all charges for utilities, taxes, property insurance, assessments and other governmental charges with respect to the Improved Lease Premises and as may be further provided in this Lease or charged to Lessor under the Ground Lease, including without limitation monthly and other CAM charges as required pursuant to the Ground Lease. It is the parties’ intent that Lessee shall pay all such charges directly. In the event Lessor shall receive any such charges, Lessor shall bill Lessee for any such charges and Lessee shall promptly pay Lessor for such charges upon invoice. In the event of nonpayment of additional rent, Lessor shall have, in addition to all other rights and remedies, all the rights and remedies provided for herein or by law in the case of nonpayment of the minimum rent.

(d) For all purposes under this Lease, rent shall mean both minimum and additional rent. Rent shall be delivered to Lessor at Lessor's address as set forth above, or at such other place or to such other person as Lessor may designate in writing from time to time.

(e) If any default by Lessor in its obligations with respect to this Lease or the Ground Lease results in an emergency or a loss of services to or within the Improved Lease Premises or threatens Lessee’s right to possession of Improved Lease Premises, and provided that Lessee is not then (and continues thereafter not to be) in default under this Lease, Lessee shall, upon not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Lessor of such default and provided that Lessor shall fail within such thirty (30) days (or a reasonable time thereafter if such default is not capable of cure within thirty (30) days) to cure such default, have the right to itself cure Lessor’s default. Upon Lessee’s paying the reasonable costs to cure Lessor’s default and providing paid receipts therefor to Lessor, Lessor shall reimburse Lessee for such costs within thirty (30) days of Lessor’s receipt of the documentation of such costs. In the event Lessor fails to substantially complete the Lessor Work as set forth in Exhibit “C” hereto, by __8/15/2010___(subject however to force majeure), and Lessee is not then (and continues thereafter not to be) in default under this Lease, Lessor shall, upon thirty (30) days prior written notice thereof to Lessor and Lessor’s failure within such period to complete the Lessor Work, have the right to complete the Lessor Work at Lessee’s cost. Upon Lessee’s paying the reasonable cost of such completion and providing paid receipts therefor to Lessor, Lessor shall reimburse Lessee such costs within thirty (30) days of Lessor’s receipt of the documentation of said costs.

(f) In the event that Lessor fails to pay any monthly installment of Minimum Rent due under the Ground Lease following any applicable notice and cure period, Lessee shall have the right to pay such unpaid monthly installment of Minimum Rent due under the Ground Lease and, upon such payment and provided that Lessee shall have previously paid to Lessor the entire monthly installment of rent due under this Lease for the same month that the Ground Lease monthly installment was due and unpaid, to offset against the next monthly installment of minimum rent due under this Lease, the amount of the monthly installment of Minimum Rent so paid by Lessee to the Ground Lessor. Lessee shall give prior written notice of such set-off to Lessor’s mortgagee.

5. ALTERATIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS.

(a) Lessee shall not make or cause to be made any alterations, additions or improvements to the Improved Lease Premises without the prior written consent of Lessor. All alterations, additions or improvements approved by Lessor shall be made solely at Lessee's expense by a contractor approved by Lessor, shall be made in a good and workmanlike manner and shall be performed in compliance with all laws, ordinances and requirements of any and all Federal, State, Municipal and/or other authorities, the Board of Fire Underwriters and any mortgages to which the Improved Lease Premises is subject. Any alteration, addition or improvement made by Lessee under this Section 5, and any fixtures installed as a part thereof, shall, at Lessor's option, become the property of Lessor upon the expiration or other termination of this Lease. Lessor shall have the right, however, to require Lessee to remove such fixtures at Lessee's cost upon such termination of this Lease, and Lessee shall promptly remove the same and repair any damage to the Improved Lease Premises caused by such removal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee shall not be obligated to remove the vault from the Improved Lease Premises.

(b) All persons to whom these presents may come are put upon notice of the fact that Lessee shall never, under any circumstances, have the power to subject the interest of Lessor, Ground Lessor or any mortgagee in the Improved Lease Premises to any mechanic's, materialman's or similar lien.

(c) Any contract or agreement for labor, equipment, services, materials or supplies in connection with the rights set forth hereunder shall provide that no lien or claim shall thereby be created or arise, or be filed by anyone thereunder, upon or against the Improved Lease Premises and/or the interest of Lessor, Ground Lessor or any mortgagee, or the buildings or improvements thereon to be erected on the Improved Lease Premises or any of the equipment thereof.

(d) In the event of a lien or claim of any kind, arising out of the exercise of the rights set forth hereunder by Lessee, its agents, employees, contractors, subcontractors, and materialmen, being filed against the interest of Lessor, Ground Lessor, any mortgagee and/or against the Improved Lease Premises, Lessee covenants and agrees that at its expense it will within thirty (30) days after written notice from Lessor, or within such shorter time as may be required pursuant to the Ground Lease, cause the Improved Lease Premises and any such interest therein to be released from the legal effect of such lien or claim, either by payment or by posting of bond or by the payment into court of the amount necessary to relieve and release the Improved Lease Premises or the interest from such claim or in any manner satisfactory to Lessor, Ground Lessor and any mortgagee. If Lessee desires to contest the validity of any lien or claim, Lessee may do so upon Lessor's prior written consent, provided Lessee sustains the cost of such contest, and Lessee remains liable to pay or discharge any lien or claim deemed to be due or payable. Lessee hereby indemnifies and holds Lessor harmless against any and all liability, loss or damage sustained by Lessor by reason of such contest, unless such contest arises from any negligent or intentional act or omission of Lessor.

6. UTILITIES. Lessee shall pay, when the same shall become due, all charges for utilities consumed by it on the Improved Lease Premises including without limitation electricity, heat and telephone, and any other utilities, as well as water and sewer charges. Lessor shall not be required to furnish to Lessee any utility, janitorial or other service of any kind whatsoever during the Term of this Lease.

7. MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS. Lessor has made no representations concerning the condition of the Improved Lease Premises other than that the improvements will be completed in accordance with the agreement between the parties as referred to in Section 1 hereof. Lessee shall maintain and be responsible for maintaining and repairing all portions of the Improved Lease Premises. Lessee, at its sole cost and expense, shall take good care of the Improved Lease Premises and will maintain the same in good order and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and make all necessary repairs thereto, interior as well as exterior, including and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, roof and structural members, including walls. Lessee shall be responsible for the routine regular cleaning and maintenance of the Improved Lease Premises, snow removal and landscaping and shall keep all portions of the Improved Lease Premises in a clean and orderly condition, free of unlawful obstruction, and shall not permit or cause any damage, waste or injury to the building or other improvements on the Improved Lease Premises.

8. REFUSE REMOVAL. Lessee shall provide for its own garbage, rubbish and refuse disposal and recycling and agrees to keep the Improved Lease Premises free and clear of debris. Lessee agrees to keep all rubbish, garbage and refuse in covered containers within the Improved Lease Premises (or at such other location identified by Lessor) and to have the same removed regularly.

9. COMPLIANCE. With regard to its use of the Improved Lease Premises, Lessee shall, at its own expense, comply with all laws, rules, orders, regulations, and requirements of all Federal, State, and municipal governments, courts, departments, commissions, boards, and officers having jurisdiction over the Improved Lease Premises, the lawful orders, rules, and regulations of the Board of Fire Underwriters having jurisdiction over the Improved Lease Premises, any mortgages to which the Improved Lease Premises is subject, and any rules and regulations of Lessor. Lessee shall have the right to contest by appropriate legal proceedings, diligently pursued, without cost or expense to Lessor, the validity of any governmental law, rule, order, regulation or requirement. Lessee hereby indemnifies and holds Lessor harmless against any and all liability, loss, or damage sustained by Lessor by reason of such contest. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, Lessee shall promptly comply with any such law, rule, order, regulation or requirement if at any time the Improved Lease Premises or any part thereof shall then be immediately subject to forfeiture or Lessee shall be subject to criminal liability for non-compliance therewith.

10. TAXES. Lessee shall pay as and when the same shall become due, but in any event not later than fifteen (15) days after receipt of a bill therefor, all real property taxes, assessments and other governmental charges assessed against the Improved Lease Premises during the Term of this Lease. Lessee shall have the right to contest by appropriate legal proceedings, diligently pursued, without cost or expense to Lessor, the validity of any such tax, assessment or other governmental charge. Lessee hereby indemnifies Lessor against any and all liability, loss or damage sustained by Lessor by reason of such contest. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, Lessee shall promptly pay any such tax, assessment or other government charge if at any time the Improved Lease Premises or any part thereof shall then be immediately subject to forfeiture or Lessee shall be subject to any criminal liability for nonpayment thereof. Lessor agrees to promptly forward to Lessee all applicable tax bills when received from Ground Lessor, and Lessee shall pay same in accordance with the Ground Lease.

11. SURRENDER OF IMPROVED LEASE PREMISES. Lessee covenants that upon the termination or expiration of this Lease or any renewal thereof, Lessee shall surrender the Improved Lease Premises in good order and condition and shall surrender all keys to the Improved Lease Premises to Lessor at the place then fixed for the payment of rent. This covenant shall survive termination of this Lease.

12. RIGHT OF ENTRY. Upon prior notice and in the presence of an authorized representative of Lessee (whom Lessee agrees to provide upon such notice received from Lessor), Lessor and/or its agents shall have the right to enter upon and inspect the Improved Lease Premises at all reasonable times and to exhibit the Improved Lease Premises to prospective purchasers and prospective tenants (but in this case, only during the last eight (8) months of the term of this Lease). Lessor shall be permitted to affix a "To Let" or "For Sale" sign on the Improved Lease Premises during the last ninety (90) days of the term of this Lease in such place as shall not interfere with the business then being conducted at the Improved Lease Premises. Lessee acknowledges that Ground Lessor shall have such rights with respect to entry and signage as are set forth in the Ground Lease.

13. SIGNS. Lessee shall have the right to install and maintain on the Improved Lease Premises such signs and advertising matter as Lessee may reasonably desire, subject to the prior consent of Lessor and subject to the Ground Lease. Lessee shall comply with any laws or ordinances with respect to such signs or advertising, and shall obtain any necessary permits. Lessee agrees to maintain such signs or advertising in good condition, and to repair any damage which may be caused by erection, maintenance, repair or removal of such signs or advertising.

14. LIABILITY AND OTHER INSURANCE. Lessee shall, during the entire term hereof, keep in full force and effect policies of comprehensive liability and property damage insurance and all insurances required by the Ground Lease, with respect to the Improved Lease Premises and the business operated by Lessee in and upon the Improved Lease Premises, in which the limits of bodily injury liability and property damage liability shall be mutually agreed upon but shall be in no event less than set forth in the Ground Lease. The policy (or policies) shall name Lessor, and any persons, firms, or corporations designated by Lessor, including the Ground Lessor and mortgagees, if any, and Lessee as insured and shall contain a clause that the insurer will not cancel or modify the insurance without first giving the named parties thirty (30) days prior written notice. Copies of the policy or certificates of accord or insurance shall be delivered to Lessor upon the Commencement Date or sooner as may be required by Ground Lessor. If Lessee shall not comply with its covenants made in this section, Lessor may, at its option, cause insurance as aforesaid to be issued and in such event, Lessee agrees to pay the premium for such insurance promptly upon Lessor's demand as additional rent. All obligations contained in this Section 14 shall be subject to the requirements of Lessor’s lender and/or mortgagee. In the event Lessor’s lender requires minimum insurance coverages in excess of the limits described herein, then Lessee expressly agrees to comply with all requirements of Lessor’s lender. Failure to do so shall constitute an Event of Default under this Lease. Lessor agrees to promptly forward to Lessee all applicable insurance bills when received from Ground Lessor, and Lessee shall pay same in accordance with the Ground Lease.

(a) Property and Personal Injury Liability Insurance. At all times during the Term of this Lease, Lessee shall maintain, at its sole cost, comprehensive broad-form general public liability insurance against claims and liability for personal injury, death, and property damage arising from the use, occupancy, disuse, or condition of the Improved Lease Premises and Improvements. The insurance shall be carried by insurance companies authorized to transact business in Pennsylvania, selected by Lessee and approved by Lessor, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. In addition, the following conditions shall be met:

(i) The insurance provided pursuant to this Paragraph 14(a)(i) shall be in an amount no less than One Million ($1,000,000.00) Dollars for property coverage, and in an amount no less than One Million ($1,000,000.00) Dollars for one person and Two Million ($2,000,000.00) Dollars for one accident for personal injury.

(ii) The insurance shall be maintained for the mutual benefit of Lessor and Lessee, any succeeding owners of the fee title in the Leased Premises, any successors and assigns of this Lease. The insurance policy or policies shall name Lessor and Lessee as insureds and shall not be subject to cancellation unless Lessor has received a minimum of thirty (30) days prior written notice of the intention of the insurer to cancel the coverage.

(iii) Construction Liability Insurance. Lessee agrees either to obtain and maintain (to the extent reasonably procurable) construction liability insurance at all times when demolition, excavation, or construction work is in progress on the Improved Lease Premises, or cause its contractors to maintain such construction liability insurance, provided however that this obligation shall not apply to Lessee prior to the Commencement Date. This insurance shall be carried by insurance companies authorized to transact business in Pennsylvania, selected by Lessee and shall be paid for by Lessee. The insurance shall have limits of no less than One Million ($1,000,000.00) Dollars for property damage, and One Million ($1,000,000.00) Dollars for one person and Two Million ($2,000,000.00) Dollars for one accident for personal injury. The insurance shall be maintained for the mutual benefit of Lessor and Lessee, as well as any succeeding owners of the fee title in the Improved Lease Premises, any successors and assigns of this Lease, against all liability for injury or damage to any person or property in any way arising out of demolition, excavation, or construction work on the premises. The insurance policy or policies shall name Lessor and Lessee as insureds and shall not be subject to cancellation unless Lessor has received a minimum of thirty (30) days prior written notice of the intention of the insurer to cancel the coverage.

(iv) Certificates of Insurance. Lessee shall furnish Lessor with certificates of all insurance required by this Section 14. Lessee agrees that if it does not keep this insurance in full force and effect, Lessor may notify Lessee of this failure, and if Lessee does not deliver to Lessor certificates showing all of the required insurance to be in full force and effect within ten (10) days after this notice, Lessor may, at its option, take out and pay the premiums on the insurance needed to fulfill Lessee’s obligations herein. On demand from Lessor, Lessee shall reimburse Lessor the full amount of any insurance premiums paid by Lessor, with interest at the rate of ten (10%) percent per annum from the date of Lessor’s demand until reimbursement by Lessee.

15. WAIVER OF SUBROGATION. Neither Lessee nor anyone claiming by, through, under or on behalf of Lessee, shall have any claim, right of action, or right of subrogation against Lessor for or based upon any loss or damage caused by any casualty, including but not limited to fire or explosion, relating to the Improved Lease Premises or property therein. Neither Lessor nor anyone claiming by, through, under or on behalf of Lessor, shall have any claim, right of action, or right of subrogation against Lessee for or based upon any loss or damage caused by any casualty, including but not limited to fire or explosion, relating to the Improved Lease Premises or property therein. This release shall be applicable and in force and effect only with respect to loss or damage occurring during such time as the releasor’s policies shall contain a clause or endorsement to the effect that any such release shall not adversely affect or impair or prejudice the right of the releasor to recover thereunder. Lessor and Lessee each agree that their policies will include such a clause or endorsement so long as the same is obtainable and if not obtainable, shall so advise the other in writing and such notice shall release both parties from the obligation to obtain such a clause or endorsement.

16. INDEMNITY. Lessee hereby agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend, at its own expense, Lessor from and against any and all claims, actions, damages, liability, judgments and expenses, including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees, which may be imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against Lessor or Lessor's interest in the Improved Lease Premises, by reason of any loss of life, personal injury or claim of injury, or damage to property or claim of damage to property in or about the Improved Lease Premises, howsoever caused, arising out of or relating to the occupancy or use by Lessee, its employees, agents or invitees, of the Improved Lease Premises, including without limitation the streets, alleys, sidewalks or parking areas. Lessee shall indemnify Lessor for any environmental liability to the extent such claims, damages, liability, judgments and expenses are caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Lessee, its employees, agents and/or invitees. In addition, Lessee shall indemnify, defend and hold Lessor harmless from and against any and all expenses incurred by Lessor arising out of or relating to Lessee’s failure to pay or perform its obligations under this Lease.

17. CASUALTY. In the event that the Improved Lease Premises, or any portion thereof, are damaged or destroyed by any cause whatsoever, Lessee shall commence such restoration as soon as possible after such occurrence so as to permit such use and enjoyment of the Improved Lease Premises, but in no event later than thirty (30) days thereafter (but except in the case of an act of God not later than sixty (60) days after the damage or destruction), and shall diligently pursue such repair or restoration to completion, with a contractor approved by Lessor. Only to the extent that the casualty or damage to the Improved Lease Premises is caused directly by the gross negligence of Lessor, Rent shall be equitably abated based on the area of the Improved Lease Premises rendered untenantable, if any, during the period of such untenantability, provided however that any other charges due under the Ground Lease (other than Minimum Rent for which Lessor in such event shall remain obligated under the Ground Lease) shall not be abated or reduced as a result of damage to the Improved Lease Premises, and Lessee shall continue to be obligated therefor.

18. EMINENT DOMAIN.

If the entire Improved Lease Premises shall be taken by reason of condemnation or under eminent domain proceedings, Lessee may terminate this Lease as of the date when possession of the Improved Lease Premises is so taken by the condemning entity. If a portion of the Improved Lease Premises, including without limitation the building, site improvements, parking or access, shall be taken under eminent domain or by reason of condemnation to such an extent that the taking materially adversely affects Lessee’s use of the Improved Lease Premises, Lessee shall have the option to terminate this Lease by written notice to Lessor, provided that such notice is given to Lessor before the last to expire of (i) the twenty (20) day period after the taking authority has taken actual physical possession of any portion of the Improved Leased Premises or the parking area or highway access appurtenant thereto or (ii) ten (10) days after notice from Lessor to Lessee or Lessee to Lessor of the fact of such taking. If this Lease is not so terminated, Lessee may at its sole cost and expense, and with a contractor acceptable to Lessor, restore the remaining portions of the Improved Lease Premises as Lessee deems necessary or appropriate (subject to applicable law) without abatement of rent. For purposes of this Section 18, (i) a partial taking shall be deemed to include loss or impairment of access to and from the Improved Lease Premises and (ii) grants or conveyances made in lieu or in anticipation of or under threat of a taking or condemnation shall be deemed a taking. Both parties shall pursue their own damage awards with respect to any such taking, provided however that Lessee shall be entitled to, and nothing herein shall prevent Lessee from seeking, an award for taking of or damage to Lessee’s trade fixtures and any award for Lessee’s moving expenses, so long as said awards do not diminish the award to which Lessor is entitled. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 18, in the event of any conflict between this Section 18 and Article XIII of the Ground Lease, Lessee shall be bound by the provisions of Article XIII of the Ground Lease.

19. DEFAULT. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute an "Event of Default" hereunder:

(a) Lessee shall fail to pay in full when due, any installment of rent or any other sum payable by Lessee hereunder, and such failure shall continue for a period of ten (10) days;

(b) Lessee shall fail to perform or observe (or cause or permit any such failure) any other covenant, term, condition, agreement or obligation to be performed or observed by Lessee under this Lease or under the Ground Lease, and such failure shall continue for twenty (20) days after written notice thereof from Lessor to Lessee; provided however that a failure as described in this Section 19(b) shall not constitute a default if it is curable but cannot with reasonable diligence be cured by Lessee within a period of twenty (20) days, so long as Lessee promptly commences cure and proceeds to cure the failure with reasonable diligence and in good faith.

(c) The insolvency of Lessee, as evidenced by (i) the adjudication of Lessee as a bankrupt or insolvent; (ii) the filing of a petition seeking reorganization of Lessee or an arrangement with creditors, or any other petition seeking protection of any bankruptcy or insolvency law; (iii) the filing of a petition seeking the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator of Lessee or of all or any part of Lessee's assets or property; (iv) an assignment by Lessee for the benefit of creditors; or (v) the levy against any portion of Lessee's assets or property by any sheriff or other officer.

(d) Lessor acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding any other provisions contained in this Lease Agreement, in the event (i) Lessee or its successors or assignees shall become subject to a bankruptcy case pursuant to Title 11 of the U.S. Code or similar proceeding during the term of this Lease or (ii) the depository institution then operating the Improved Lease Premises is closed or is taken over by any depository institution supervisory authority during the term of this Lease, Lessor shall be bound by all applicable federal statutes and regulations, including specifically 12 U.S.C. 1821(e)(4).

(e) Lessee shall fail to open as an Embassy Bank at the Improved Lease Premises as required by the Ground Lease.

20. REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lessor shall have the following rights and remedies in addition to all other rights and remedies otherwise available at law or in equity:

(a) If Lessee shall at any time fail to pay any sum, charge, or imposition or perform any other act on its part to be performed, then Lessor, after ten (10) days written notice to Lessee and without waiving or releasing Lessee from any obligation hereunder, may pay such charge or sum of money or make any other payment or perform any other act on the Lessee's part to be made or performed, and may enter upon the Improved Lease Premises for any such purpose, and take all such action thereon as may be necessary therefor. All sums so paid by Lessor and all costs and expenses incurred by Lessor in connection with the performance of any such act, together with interest thereon at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from the respective dates of Lessor's making of each such payment or incurring of each such cost and expense, shall constitute additional rent payable by Lessee under this Lease and Lessor shall have the same remedies for the collection thereof as in the case of a failure to pay rent.

(b) At the option of Lessor and upon written notice to Lessee, this Lease, without waiver of any other rights of Lessor herein, may be terminated and declared void, without any right on the part of Lessee to save forfeiture by payment of any sum due or by performance of any term, covenant, or condition broken and Lessor may re-enter and possess the Improved Lease Premises without demand or notice, with or without process of law, using such reasonable force as may be necessary, without being deemed guilty of trespass, eviction, forcible entry, conversion or becoming liable for any loss or damage which may be occasioned thereby. In such event, Lessor shall be entitled to recover from Lessee all damages incurred by Lessor by reason of Lessee's default including, but not limited to, the cost of recovering possession of the Improved Lease Premises; expenses of reletting, including necessary renovation and alteration of the Improved Lease Premises; reasonable attorneys' fees; rent payment through the balance of the term; or the difference between the rent to be paid by the Lessee pursuant to this Lease and the rent charges collected by Lessor upon reletting;

(c) Lessor may retake possession of the Improved Lease Premises without terminating the Lease, in which case this Lease shall continue in effect whether or not Lessee shall have abandoned the Improved Lease Premises. In such event, Lessor shall be entitled to enforce all of Lessor's rights and remedies under this Lease, including the right to recover the rent and any other charges and adjustments as may become due hereunder;

22. SUBORDINATION AND ATTORNMENT TO LEASEHOLD MORTGAGEE.

(a) Lessee agrees that this Lease shall be subordinate to any mortgages that may presently or hereafter be placed upon the Lessor's leasehold interest in the Ground Lease Premises and to any and all advances to be made thereunder, and all renewals, replacements, and extensions thereof, without the necessity of any further instrument or act on the part of Lessee, subject however to the execution of a customary subordination and non-disturbance agreement which Lessee agrees to execute in the form required by Lessor’s lender. Lessee will, upon written demand by Lessor, execute such instruments as may be required at any time and from time to time to confirm such subordination. Although this subordination shall be self-operative, Lessor agrees to provide Lessee with a non-disturbance agreement executed by Lessor’s current mortgagee, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit “E.” Lessor further agrees to use its best efforts to provide a customary non-disturbance agreement signed by any future mortgagee of Lessor.

(b) Lessee shall, in the event any proceedings are brought for the foreclosure of any mortgage made by Lessor covering the Improved Lease Premises, attorn to the purchaser upon any such foreclosure and sale and recognize such purchaser as the Lessor under this Lease.

23. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE. Lessee agrees, within five (5) business days after Lessor’s written request, to execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Lessor party a written instrument in recordable form reasonably required by Lessor and/or Lessor/s lender or mortgagee, certifying (i) whether this Lease is in full force and effect and whether there have been any modifications, supplements, side agreements or amendments and, if so, stating such modifications, supplements, side agreements and amendments; (ii) the date to which rent has been paid; (iii) the amount of any prepaid rent and any credit due Lessee if any; (iv) the Commencement Date and whether any option to renew the Term has been exercised and, if so, the day that Renewal Term expires; (v) whether either party is in default in the performance of any covenant, agreement or condition contained in this Lease and, if so, specifying each such default; and (vi) such other matters as Ground Lessor or Ground Lessor’s mortgagee, Lessor or Lessor’s mortgagee may reasonably require. Any such instrument delivered pursuant to this section may be relied upon by Ground Lessor, Lessor and any mortgagee or permitted assignee of any of them, and any prospective purchaser of the Improved Lease Premises.

24. MEMORANDUM OF LEASE AND RECORDING. Lessor and Lessee shall execute a Memorandum of Lease hereof, in form reasonably satisfactory to each of them, and Lessee may record such Memorandum of Lease in the office of the Recorder of Deeds of and for Northampton County, Pennsylvania.

25. TERMINATION OF GROUND LEASE. In the event that Lessor's interest in the Ground Lease Premises shall be terminated pursuant to the terms of the Ground Lease prior to the termination of this Lease, Lessee shall recognize Ground Lessor as the Lessor under this Lease if the Ground Lease has not been terminated by the Ground Lessor.

26. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. Neither Lessee or its successors or permitted assigns shall assign this Lease or any interest therein, sublet the whole or any portion of the Improved Lease Premises or subject its interest in this Lease to any leasehold mortgage without the prior written consent of Lessor, Ground Lessor and their respective lenders. No assignment or sublease shall release Lessee from its obligations to perform the terms, covenants, and conditions of this Lease.

Furthermore, Lessee shall not be permitted to act or conduct business in any way that is against any applicable law.

29. FURTHER AGREEMENTS.

(a) During the Term and any Renewal Term, Lessor agrees to give notice to Lessee in the event that Lessor elects to sell the bank building on the Improved Lease Premises and to assign Lessor’s rights as ground lessee under the Ground Lease (other than an assignment as security). The parties acknowledge that this agreement to give a one-time notice is to enable Lessee, should it elect to do so, to negotiate with Lessor to acquire the bank building and Lessor’s interest in the Ground Lease. It is acknowledged and agreed that Lessee shall have no obligation to acquire same from Lessor. It is further acknowledged and agreed by the parties that Lessor’s agreement to give notice to Lessee pursuant to this Section 29(a) does not constitute a right of first refusal.

THIS AGREEMENT, dated the ____ day of ________, 2009 between UNIVEST NATIONAL BANK AND TRUST CO. (hereinafter called "Mortgagee"), and EMBASSY BANK FOR THE LEHIGH VALLEY, a Pennsylvania financial institution (hereinafter called "Tenant").

(a) Tenant has entered into a certain lease (the "Lease") dated October _____, 2009, with Polaris Lower Naz Development, LLC (hereinafter called "Landlord"), covering premises located at Route 248 and Corriere Road, Lower Nazareth Township, Northampton County, Pennsylvania, being a portion of PIN Number ______________ (the “Property”); and

(b) Mortgagee has made, or shall make, a mortgage loan (the "Mortgage") to the Landlord, which Mortgage is, or shall be, filed against the above premises.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above and of the sum of ONE DOLLAR ($1.00) by each party in hand paid to the other, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

1. The Lease is, and shall continue to be, subject and subordinate to the Mortgage insofar as it affects the real property of which the demised premises form a part, and to all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions of the Mortgage, to the full extent of the liabilities secured thereby, whether now existing or hereafter arising.

2. Tenant agrees that it will attorn to and recognize Mortgagee or any purchaser at a foreclosure sale under the Mortgage, any transferee who acquires the demised premises by deed in lieu of foreclosure, and the successors and assigns of such purchasers, as its Landlord for the unexpired balance (and any extensions, if exercised) of the term of said Lease upon the same terms and conditions set forth in the Lease.

3. If it should become necessary to foreclose the Mortgage, so long as Tenant is not in default under any of the terms, covenants, or conditions of the Lease beyond the expiration of any applicable grace period, (a) Mortgagee thereunder will not terminate the Lease nor join Tenant in summary or foreclosure proceedings (unless required by law or rule of court), and (b) Tenant's possession of the premises and all of Tenant's rights under the Lease shall remain undisturbed by the holder of the Mortgage, so long as Tenant complies with all terms, covenants and conditions contained therein.

4. In the event that Mortgagee shall succeed to the interest of Landlord under such Lease, Mortgagee shall not be

(a) liable for or subject to any act or omission of any prior landlord (including Landlord);

(b) subject to any offsets or defenses which Tenant has or could have against any prior landlord (including Landlord);

(c) bound by or subject to offset for any rent or additional rent which Tenant may have paid in advance for more than the current month to any prior landlord (including Landlord); or

(d) bound by or subject to any amendment or modification of the lease made without Mortgagee's prior written consent.

5. This Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed these presents the day and year first above written.
