Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement

On July 23, 2024, ACNB Corporation (“ACNB”) and, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, ACNB Bank and ACNB South Acquisition Subsidiary, LLC (“Acquisition Subsidiary”) and Traditions Bancorp, Inc. (“Traditions”) and Traditions Bank entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Agreement”) which provides that, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement, Traditions will merge with and into Acquisition Subsidiary with Acquisition Subsidiary surviving the merger. In addition, as soon as practicable after the merger of Traditions with and into Acquisition Subsidiary, Traditions Bank will merge with and into ACNB Bank.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, each share of Traditions common stock will be converted into the right to receive 0.7300 share of ACNB common stock. Traditions shareholders will receive cash in lieu of fractional shares.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, (i) each Traditions restricted stock unit issued that is outstanding immediately before the effective time of the merger shall vest in full and be converted automatically into the right to receive the merger consideration, and (ii) each outstanding option to purchase shares of Traditions common stock that is outstanding and unexercised at the effective time of the merger, shall be redeemed for cash.

The Agreement contains customary representations and warranties from the parties, and the parties have agreed to customary covenants and agreements, including, among others, covenants and agreements relating to (1) conduct of their respective businesses during the interim period between execution of the Agreement and the closing of the merger, (2) Traditions’ obligation to facilitate its shareholders’ consideration of, and voting upon, the necessary approval and adoption of the Agreement, (3) ACNB’s obligation to facilitate its shareholders’ consideration of, and voting upon, the issuance of the common stock to Traditions shareholders, (4) the recommendation of the board of directors of Traditions in favor of the necessary approval by its shareholders, (5) Traditions’ non-solicitation and other obligations relating to alternative business combinations, and (6) the addition of three (3) members of Traditions’ current board members, one of which shall be Eugene J. Draganosky, to the boards of directors of ACNB and ACNB Bank. Further, as of the effective time of the merger, Mr. Draganosky will be appointed as an additional Vice Chair of the boards of directors of ACNB and ACNB Bank. In connection with the Agreement, ACNB and ACNB Bank have entered into an employment agreement with Thomas J. Sposito. The employment agreement becomes effective contingent upon the completion of the merger.

The boards of directors of ACNB and Traditions have unanimously approved the Agreement. The Agreement and the transactions contemplated by it are subject to the approval of Traditions’ shareholders, ACNB’s shareholders for the share issuance, regulatory approvals, and other customary closing conditions. The transaction is intended to qualify as a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax purposes.

The Agreement provides certain termination rights for both ACNB and Traditions. Upon termination of the Agreement under certain circumstances, Traditions will be obligated to pay ACNB a termination fee of $3.0 million.

The foregoing description of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The representations, warranties and covenants of each party set forth in the Agreement have been made only for purposes of, and were and are solely for the benefit of the parties to, the Agreement, may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Accordingly, the representations and warranties may not describe the actual state of affairs at the date they were made or at any other time, and investors should not rely on them as statements of fact. In addition, such representations and warranties (1) will not survive consummation of the merger, unless otherwise specified therein, and (2) were made only as of the date of the Agreement or such other date as is specified in the Agreement. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the parties’ public disclosures. Accordingly, the Agreement is included with this filing only to provide investors with information regarding the terms of the Agreement, and not to provide investors with any other factual information regarding ACNB or Traditions, their respective affiliates or their respective businesses. The Agreement should not be read alone, but should instead be read in conjunction with the other information regarding ACNB, Traditions, their respective affiliates or their respective businesses, the Agreement and the merger that will be contained in, or incorporated by reference into, the registration statement on Form S-4 that will include a joint proxy statement of Traditions and ACNB and a prospectus of ACNB, as well as in the Forms 10-K, Forms 10-Q, Forms 8-K and other filings that ACNB makes with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Section 5.20 Severance. ACNB shall and shall cause ACNB Bank to use its best efforts to continue the employment of all current employees of Traditions and Traditions Bank in positions that will contribute to the successful performance of the combined organization. Provided such employee executes a customary form of release, ACNB agrees to and agrees to cause ACNB Bank to provide severance pay, as set forth below, to any active employee of Traditions or any Traditions Subsidiary whose employment is terminated within twelve (12) months of the Effective Time if (i) such employee’s position is eliminated or (ii) such employee is not offered or retained in comparable employment (i.e., a position of generally similar job description, responsibilities, and compensation) with ACNB or any ACNB Subsidiary, excluding any employee (a) who is being paid under an existing employment, change in control agreement, severance agreement, or other agreement, (b) whose employment is terminated for cause, or (c) who voluntarily leaves employment with Traditions or Traditions Bank or ACNB Bank (“Eligible Employee”). A Traditions or Traditions Bank employee who is offered a position with ACNB Bank which would require such employee to relocate such employee’s regular place of employment more than forty (40) miles from his or her regular place of employment as of the Effective Time, who does not accept such offer of employment, shall be deemed to have been terminated and to be an Eligible Employee. Eligible Employees not subject to Traditions employment, change of control or severance plans or contracts shall receive severance equal to two (2) weeks’ pay for each full year of continuous service with a minimum severance benefit of four (4) weeks’ pay and a maximum severance benefit of twenty-six (26) weeks’ pay.

(b)

By ACNB or Traditions:

(i)

If the Closing Date shall not have occurred on or before June 30, 2025, unless the failure of such occurrence shall be due to the failure of the party seeking to terminate this Agreement to perform or observe in any material respect its agreements set forth in this Agreement required to be performed or observed by such party on or before the Closing Date; or

(c)

by Traditions in writing if ACNB has, or by ACNB in writing if Traditions has, breached (i) any covenant or undertaking contained herein or (ii) any representation or warranty contained herein, which in the case of a breach by ACNB would have a Material Adverse Effect on ACNB or in the case of a breach by Traditions would have a Material Adverse Effect on Traditions, in any case, if such breach has not been substantially cured by the earlier of thirty (30) days after the date on which written notice of such breach is given to the party committing such breach or the Effective Time unless on such date such breach no longer causes a Material Adverse Effect;

(d)

by either ACNB or Traditions if the Traditions’ shareholder meeting shall have occurred and the Traditions’ shareholders shall have not approved and adopted this Agreement by the requisite vote; provided, however, that no termination right shall exist hereunder if prior to such shareholder vote the board of directors of Traditions shall have withdrawn, modified or changed in a manner adverse to ACNB its approval or recommendation of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby;

(e)

by either ACNB or Traditions if the ACNB shareholder meeting shall have occurred and the ACNB shareholders shall have not approved the issuance of shares pursuant to this Agreement in accordance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules; provided, however, that no termination right shall exist for ACNB hereunder if prior to such shareholder vote the board of directors of ACNB shall have withdrawn, modified or changed in a manner adverse to Traditions its approval or recommendation of the proposal to approve the issuance of shares of ACNB Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement;

(f)

by either ACNB or Traditions if Traditions’ board of directors shall have determined in good faith after consultation with its legal and financial advisers, taking into account, all relevant factors, including, without limitation all legal, financial, regulatory and other aspects of an unsolicited Acquisition Proposal and the Person making the proposal, including any break-up fees, expense reimbursement provisions and conditions to consummation, that failure to agree to or endorse the Acquisition Proposal and terminate this Agreement would, or would reasonably likely, result in a breach of its fiduciary duties under applicable law; provided however, that this Agreement may be terminated pursuant to this Section 7.01(f) only after the fifth business day following written notice to ACNB (which notice shall specify the material terms and conditions of any such Acquisition Proposal, including the identity of the party making such Acquisition Proposal, and such notice shall also include a copy of the relevant proposed transaction agreements with the party making such Acquisition Proposal and other material documents) advising ACNB that Traditions is prepared to accept such Acquisition Proposal (it being agreed that the delivery of such notice shall not entitle Traditions to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7.01(f) or any other provision of this Agreement) and only if (i) during such five (5) business day period, Traditions has caused its financial and legal advisors to negotiate with ACNB in good faith (to the extent ACNB chooses to negotiate) to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement such that the board of directors of Traditions no longer believes it has to terminate this Agreement in order to comply with its fiduciary duties, and (ii) Traditions has considered such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement resulting from such negotiations and has concluded in good faith, based upon consultation with its financial and legal advisers, that it must enter into the Acquisition Proposal even after giving effect to the adjustments proposed by ACNB and further provided that such termination shall not be effective until Traditions has paid the Traditions Termination Fee to ACNB; or

LETTER AGREEMENT

July ___, 2024

ACNB Bancorp, Inc.

100 V-Twin Drive

P.O. Box 3129

Gettysburg, PA 17325

Ladies and Gentlemen:

ACNB Bancorp, Inc. (“ACNB”), ACNB South Acquisition Subsidiary, LLC (“Acquisition Subsidiary”), ACNB Bank, Traditions Bancorp, Inc. (“Traditions”) and Traditions Bank are entering into concurrently herewith an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization to be dated as of July 23, 2024 (the “Agreement”).

Pursuant to the proposed Agreement, among other things, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, Traditions will merge with and into Acquisition Subsidiary, with Acquisition Subsidiary surviving the merger (the “Merger”).

ACNB has requested, as a condition to its willingness to enter into the Agreement, that each of the undersigned, being a director, executive officer or significant shareholder of Traditions, executes and delivers to ACNB this Letter Agreement.

I understand that ACNB is requiring, as an inducement to its execution and delivery to Traditions of the Agreement, that I execute and deliver to ACNB this Letter Agreement.

The undersigned, solely in his or her individual capacity as a shareholder, (and not as a fiduciary, trustee, financial advisor, or advisor, including as a director or executive officer of Traditions), in order to induce ACNB to execute and deliver to Traditions the Agreement, and intending to be legally bound, hereby irrevocably agrees as follows:

I agree to be present (in person or by proxy) at all meetings of shareholders of Traditions called to vote for approval and adoption of the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, so that all shares of Traditions common stock over which I have or exercise sole or shared voting power, including those held in a voting trust, individually or, to the extent of my proportionate interest, jointly with other persons, (collectively, my “Covered Shares”) will be counted for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum at such meetings.

I agree to vote, or cause to be voted, (a) for approval and adoption of the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, and (b) against any action that is intended, or could reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, or adversely affect the transaction contemplated in the Agreement, all Covered Shares over which I exercise voting power, and I will use my best efforts to cause all Covered Shares over which I share voting power, including those held in a voting trust jointly with other persons, to be voted for in the same manner.

I hereby revoke any and all previous proxies granted with respect to the Covered Shares.

Through the earlier of (a) the receipt of the requisite approval and adoption of the Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby by the shareholders of Traditions, or (b) termination of the Agreement in accordance with its terms, I agree not to directly or indirectly offer, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any Covered Shares; provided, however, that I may make a bona fide gift of shares or transfer of shares for estate planning or similar purposes prior to that date as long as the recipient agrees to vote such shares for approval and adoption of the Agreement and agrees, in writing, to be bound by all the terms hereof as if an original signatory hereto.

I hereby agree that any shares of Traditions common stock or other voting securities of Traditions with respect to which beneficial ownership is acquired by the undersigned, including, without limitation, by purchase, as a result of a stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, combination, reclassification, exchange or change of such Traditions common stock or upon exercise or conversion of any securities of Traditions, if any, after the date hereof shall automatically become subject to the terms of this Letter Agreement.

I hereby represent that I own of record or beneficially, good and valid title to the Covered Shares free and clear of any and all mortgages, liens, encumbrances, charges, claims, restrictions, pledges, security interests, voting trusts or agreements, or impositions, except as expressly disclosed herein.

ACNB recognizes that, with respect to any Covered Shares which have been pledged to a third party (as specifically identified below), I may not be able to control the voting or disposition of such shares if contrary to the terms of such pledge, and that any act or failure to act on my part which is required by such pledge shall not be deemed a violation hereof.

I represent that I have the capacity to enter into this Letter Agreement and that it is a valid and binding obligation enforceable against me in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws affecting creditors’ rights and general equitable principles.

Irreparable damage would occur in the event any of the provisions of this Letter Agreement are not performed in accordance with the terms hereof, and therefore ACNB shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy at law or equity to which it may be entitled.

The agreements contained in this Letter Agreement shall apply to me solely in my capacity as a shareholder of Traditions, and no agreement contained in this Letter Agreement shall apply to me in my capacity as a director, officer or employee of Traditions or Traditions Bank. In addition, nothing contained in this Letter Agreement shall be deemed to apply to, or limit in any manner, my obligations to comply with my fiduciary duties as an officer or director, as applicable, of Traditions or Traditions Bank.

This Letter Agreement shall be effective upon acceptance by ACNB. Nothing herein shall be deemed to vest in ACNB any direct or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect to any shares of common stock of Traditions.

If any term or provision of this Letter Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Letter Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, ACNB and the undersigned shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Letter Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

The undersigned agrees that, in the event of his or her breach of this Letter Agreement, ACNB shall be entitled to such remedies and relief against the undersigned as are available at law or in equity. The undersigned acknowledges that there is not an adequate remedy at law to compensate ACNB for a violation of this Letter Agreement, and irrevocably waives, to the extent permitted by law, any defense that he or she might have based on the adequacy of a remedy at law which might be asserted as a bar to specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable relief. The undersigned agrees to the granting of injunctive relief without the posting of any bond or other securities and further agrees that, if any bond or other securities shall be required, such bond or other securities shall be in a nominal amount.

This Letter Agreement shall terminate concurrently with, and be of no further force and effect concurrently with, and automatically upon the earlier to occur of (a) the consummation of the Merger, or (b) any termination of the Agreement in accordance with its terms, except that any such termination shall be without prejudice to ACNB’s rights arising out of any willful breach of any covenant or representation contained herein.

This Letter Agreement shall be effective upon acceptance by ACNB and may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to constitute an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Letter Agreement.

THIS AGREEMENT is made effective as of the ___ day of July, 2024, between ACNB BANK (“Bank”), a Pennsylvania state-chartered bank having a place of business at 16 Lincoln Square, Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, 17325, and _____________ (“Employee”), an individual currently employed by Traditions Bank.

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, Employee is currently employed by Traditions Bank, and is NOT a party to an employment agreement, change in control agreement or other agreement relating to or in connection with professional services, compensation, restrictive covenants, non-solicitation, with Traditions and Traditions Bank or any other agreement, pursuant to which Employee is entitled to certain benefits and compensation upon certain occurrences following a change in control of Traditions and Traditions Bank or that would hinder or limit his abilities to fully perform his duties hereunder;

WHEREAS, Employee has no Supplemental Employee Retirement Plan (“SERP”) with Traditions or Traditions Bank;

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Bank has agreed to offer Employee the position of Senior Commercial Loan Officer and this employment agreement (“Agreement”);

WHEREAS, as an inducement for Corporation, Bank, and Acquisition Subsidiary to enter into the Merger Agreement, Employee agrees to enter into this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, Employee desires to be employed by the Bank under the terms and conditions set forth herein.

AGREEMENT:

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

Employment. The Bank hereby employs Employee and Employee hereby accepts employment with the Bank, under the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement to commence upon the Closing Date at the Effective Time as defined in the Merger Agreement.

Duties of Employee. Employee shall serve as a Senior Commercial Loan Officer of the Bank and report to a Regional Commercial Lending Manager of the Bank or a Market President of the Bank or such other officer as designated by the Board of Directors or President of the Bank. Employee shall have such other duties and hold such other titles as may be given to him/her from time to time by the Board of Directors, the President of the Bank or the President’s designee.

Engagement in Other Employment. Employee shall devote all of his/her working time, ability and attention to the business of the Bank and/or its subsidiaries or affiliates during the term of this Agreement.

Under no circumstances may the Employee engage in any business or commercial activities, duties or pursuits which compete with the business or commercial activities of the Corporation, the Bank and/or any of their subsidiaries or affiliates, nor may the Employee serve as a director or officer or in any other capacity in a company which competes with the Corporation, the Bank and/or any of their subsidiaries or affiliates. Employee shall not be precluded, however, from engaging in voluntary or philanthropic endeavors, from engaging in activities designed to maintain and improve his professional skills, or from engaging in activities incident or necessary to personal investments, so long as they are, in the Board’s reasonable opinion, not in conflict with or detrimental to the Employee’s rendition of services on behalf of the Corporation, the Bank and/or any of their subsidiaries or affiliates. Employee may serve on the civic, charitable, and professional associations or groups as delineated on Schedule I for three years after the Closing Date and thereafter subject to the prior written approval of the President of the Bank.

(vii) intentional or willful misconduct by Employee as determined by an affirmative vote of seventy-five percent (75%) of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Bank which would reasonably be expected to bring public discredit to the Corporation or the Bank or which would reasonably be expected to result in material financial or other harm to the Corporation or the Bank;

(viii) Employee’s breach of fiduciary duty involving personal profit;

(c)

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4(a) of this Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate automatically upon Employee’s voluntary termination of employment (other than in accordance with Section 6 of this Agreement) for Good Reason. The term “Good Reason” shall mean, unless agreed to in writing by Employee, (i) the assignment of duties and responsibilities inconsistent with Employee’s status as a Senior Commercial Loan Officer, (ii) a reassignment which requires Employee to move his principal residence or his office more than sixty (60) miles from the Bank’s principal Employee office immediately prior to this Agreement, (iii) any material adverse change in the terms and conditions of Employee’s employment, except for any termination of Employee’s employment for Cause, unless such change is applicable to all Senior Commercial Loan Officers or to all similarly situated employees or group of employees, (iv) any reduction in Employee’s Annual Base Salary as in effect on the date hereof, except in the case of significant under performance or nonperformance as determined by the ACNB Compensation Committee, or (v) any failure of the Bank to provide Employee with benefits at least as favorable as those enjoyed by Employee during the Employment Period under any of the pension, life insurance, medical, health and accident, disability or other employee plans of the Bank, or the taking of any action that would materially reduce any of such benefits unless such reduction is part of a reduction applicable to all Employees, or to all similarly situated employees or group of employees.

Employee shall, within ninety (90) days of the occurrence of any of the foregoing events, provide notice to the Bank of the existence of the condition and provide the Bank thirty (30) days in which to cure such condition. In the event that the Bank does not cure the condition within thirty (30) days of such notice, Employee may resign from employment for Good Reason by delivering written notice (“Notice of Termination”) to the Bank.

If such termination occurs for Good Reason after the date of this Agreement, then the Bank shall pay Employee upon receipt of a release substantially in the form of Exhibit A an amount equal to and no greater than 1.0 times Employee’s Agreed Compensation as defined in subsection (g) of Section 4, and shall be payable in twelve (12) equal monthly installments and shall be subject to federal, state and local tax withholdings, commencing within thirty (30) days of termination of employment. In addition, for a period of one (1) year from the date of termination of employment, or until Employee secures substantially similar benefits through other employment, whichever shall first occur, Employee shall receive a continuation of all life, disability, medical insurance and other normal health and welfare benefits in effect with respect to Employee at the date of Employee’s termination of employment, or, if the Bank cannot provide such benefits because Employee is no longer an employee, the Bank shall reimburse Employee in an amount equal to the monthly premium paid by him to obtain substantially similar employee benefits which he enjoyed prior to termination, subject to Code Section 409A if applicable, for a period of one (1) year from the date of termination of employment, or until Employee secures substantially similar benefits through other employment, whichever shall first occur.

(d)

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4(a) of this Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate automatically upon Employee’s Disability and Employee’s rights under this Agreement shall cease as of the date of such termination; provided, however, that Employee shall nevertheless be entitled to receive an amount equal to and no greater than sixty percent (60%) of Employee’s Agreed Compensation as defined in subsection (g) of this Section 4, less amounts payable under any disability plan of the Bank subject to the terms and limitations under the Bank Disability Plan, until the earliest of (i) Employee’s return to employment, (ii) his attainment of age sixty-five (65), (iii) his death, or (iv) the end of the then existing Employment Period. In addition, Employee shall receive for such period a continuation of all life, disability, medical insurance and other normal health and welfare benefits in effect with respect to Employee at the date of his disability, or, if Bank cannot provide such benefits because Employee is no longer an employee, Bank shall reimburse Employee in an amount equal to the monthly premium paid by him to obtain substantially similar employee benefits which he enjoyed prior to termination, subject to Code Section 409A if applicable. For purposes of this Agreement, the Employee shall have a Disability if Employee is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months or Employee is, by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months, receiving income replacement benefits for a period of not less than three (3) months under an accident and health plan covering employees of the Bank.

(e)

In the event that Employee terminates his employment without Good Reason or as a result of a Disability as defined in Section 4(d), all of Employee’s rights under this Agreement shall cease as of the effective date of such termination, except for the rights under Paragraph 22 hereof with respect to arbitration.

(f)

Employee agrees that in the event his employment under this Agreement is terminated, Employee hereby resigns as a director of the Corporation or the Bank, or any affiliate or subsidiary thereof, if he is then serving as a director of any of such entities.

(g)

The term “Agreed Compensation” shall equal Employee’s Annual Base Salary under the Agreement.

5. Employment Period Compensation.

(a)

Annual Base Salary. For services performed by Employee under this Agreement, the Bank shall pay Employee an Annual Base Salary during the Employment Period at the rate of $__________ per year, minus applicable withholdings and deductions, payable at the same times as salaries are payable to other Employee employees of the Bank. The Bank may increase Employee’s Annual Base Salary, and any and all such increases shall be deemed to constitute amendments to this Section 5(a) to reflect the increased amounts, effective as of the date established for such increases by the Board of Directors of the Bank or any committee of such Board in the resolutions authorizing such increases.

(b)

Bonus and Incentive Plan Participation. As additional consideration for entering this Agreement, Bank shall pay Employee the bonus as provided on Exhibit B. In addition, Bank may, from time to time, pay a bonus or bonuses to Employee as the Bank or an affiliate thereof, in its sole discretion, deems it appropriate. The payment of any such bonuses shall not reduce or otherwise affect any other obligation of the Bank to Employee provided for in this Agreement. Employee shall be eligible to participate in the Bank’s incentive plans as may be in effect from time to time based upon their terms and requirements.

(c)

Paid Time-Off. During the term of this Agreement, Employee shall be entitled to paid time-off in accordance with the manner and amount provided under the paid time-off plan that may be in effect from time to time. However, Employee shall not be entitled to receive any additional compensation from the Bank for failure to take a vacation, except to the extent authorized by the Boards of Directors or President of the Corporation and the Bank.

(d)

Employee Benefit Plans. During the term of this Agreement, Employee shall be entitled to participate in or receive the benefits of any employee benefit plan currently in effect at the Bank, subject to Employee’s eligibility and the terms of said plan, until such time that the Board of Directors of the Bank authorize a change in such benefits. The Bank shall not make any changes in such plans or benefits which would adversely affect Employee’s rights or benefits thereunder, unless such change occurs pursuant to a program applicable to all executive officers of the Bank or to all similarly situated employees or group of employees, subject to such plan and does not result in a proportionately greater adverse change in the rights of or benefits to Employee as compared with any other similarly situated employee or group of employees subject to such plan of the Bank. Nothing paid to Employee under any plan or arrangement presently in effect or made available in the future shall be deemed to be in lieu of the salary payable to Employee pursuant to Section 5(a) hereof.

(e)

Business Expenses. During the term of this Agreement, Employee shall be entitled to receive prompt reimbursement for all reasonable expenses incurred by him, which are properly accounted for, in accordance with the policies and procedures established by the Board of Directors of the Bank.

6. Termination of Employment Following Change in Control.

(a)

If a Change in Control (as defined in Section 6(b) of this Agreement) shall occur and (1) Employee is involuntarily terminated without Cause within one (1) year of a Change in Control or (2) if Employee terminates employment for Good Reason as defined in Section 4(c) within one hundred eighty (180) days of the Change in Control, then the provisions of Section 7 of this Agreement shall apply.

(b)

As used in this Agreement, “Change in Control” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following, provided the event constitutes a change in control within the meaning of Code Section 409A and the rules, regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder:

(i) any “person” (as such term is defined in Code Section 409A and any Revenue Guidance or Treasury Regulations issued thereunder), other than the Corporation or the Bank or any “person” who on the date hereof is a director or officer of the Corporation or the Bank, is or becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Corporation or the Bank representing thirty (30%) percent or more of the total voting power of the Corporation’s or the Bank’s then outstanding securities;

(ii) any “person” or more than one “person” acting as a group acquires ownership of stock of the Corporation or the Bank that together with stock held by such person or group constitutes more than fifty percent (50%) of the total fair market value or total voting power of the stock of the Corporation or the Bank; or,

(iii) during any period of one (1) year during the term of Employee’s employment under this Agreement, individuals who at the beginning of such one (1) year period constitute the Board of Directors of the Corporation or the Bank cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof, unless the election of each director who was not a director at the beginning of such period has been approved in advance by directors representing at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then in office who were directors at the beginning of the period.

Rights in Event of Termination Following a Change in Control. In the event that Employee terminates employment for Good Reason as defined in Section 4(c) within one hundred eighty (180) days of a Change in Control or Employee is involuntarily terminated without Cause after a Change in Control (as defined in Section 6(b) of this Agreement), Employee shall be entitled to receive the compensation and benefits set forth below:

The Bank shall pay Employee a lump sum amount equal to and no greater than 1.0 times Employee’s Agreed Compensation as defined in subsection (g) of Section 4, minus applicable taxes and withholdings, within thirty (30) days of termination of employment. In addition, for a period of one (1) year from the date of termination of employment, or until Employee secures substantially similar benefits through other employment, whichever shall first occur, Employee shall receive a continuation of all life, disability, medical insurance and other normal health and welfare benefits in effect with respect to Employee at the date of Employee’s termination of employment, or, if the Bank cannot provide such benefits because Employee is no longer an employee, the Bank shall reimburse Employee in an amount equal to the monthly premium paid by him to obtain substantially similar employee benefits which he enjoyed prior to termination, subject to Code Section 409A if applicable, for a period of one (1) year from the date of termination of employment, or until Employee secures substantially similar benefits through other employment, whichever shall first occur.

However, in the event the payment described herein, when added to all other amounts or benefits provided to or on behalf of the Employee in connection with his termination of employment, would result in the imposition of an excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code, such payments shall be retroactively reduced to the extent necessary to avoid such excise tax imposition. Upon written notice to Employee, together with calculations of Corporation’s independent auditors, Employee shall remit to Corporation the amount of the reduction plus such interest as may be necessary to avoid the imposition of such excise tax. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this contract to the contrary, if any portion of the amount herein payable to the Employee is determined to be non-deductible pursuant to the regulations promulgated under Section 280G of the Code, then Corporation shall be required only to pay to Employee the amount determined to be deductible under Section 280G.

Rights in Event of Termination of Employment Absent Change in Control. In the event that Employee’s employment is involuntarily terminated by the Bank without Cause during the Employment Period as defined in paragraph 4(a), but excluding a termination in connection with the non-renewal of the Agreement, and no Change in Control shall have occurred at the date of such termination, the Bank shall pay Employee subject to Bank’s receipt of a release substantially in the form of Exhibit A an amount equal to and no greater than 1.0 times Employee’s Agreed Compensation as defined in subsection (g) of Section 4, and shall be payable in twelve (12) equal monthly installments and shall be subject to federal, state and local tax withholdings commencing within thirty (30) days of termination of employment. In addition, for a period of one (1) year form the date of termination of employment, or until Employee secures substantially similar benefits through other employment, whichever shall first occur, Employee shall receive a continuation of all life, disability, medical insurance and other normal health and welfare benefits in effect with respect to Employee as of the date of Employee’s termination of employment, or, if the Bank cannot provide such benefits because Employee is no longer an employee, the Bank shall reimburse Employee in an amount equal to the monthly premium paid by him to obtain substantially similar employee benefits which he enjoyed prior to termination, subject to Code Section 409A if applicable, for a period of one (1) year from the date of termination of employment, or until Employee secures substantially similar benefits through other employment, whichever shall first occur.

Covenant Not to Compete.

(a)

Employee hereby acknowledges and recognizes the highly competitive nature of the business of the Corporation and the Bank and accordingly agrees that, during and for the applicable period set forth in Section 9(c) hereof, Employee shall not, except as otherwise permitted in writing by the Bank:

(i) be engaged, directly or indirectly, either for his own account or as agent, consultant, employee, partner, officer, director, proprietor, investor (except as an investor owning less than 5% of the stock of a publicly owned company) or otherwise of any person, firm, corporation or enterprise engaged in (1) the banking (including bank holding company) or financial services industry, or (2) any other activity in which the Corporation or the Bank or any of their subsidiaries are engaged during the Employment Period, and remain so engaged at the end of the Employment Period, in any county in which the Bank has a bank branch or loan production office (including branches or offices operating under a trade name) as well as all counties or independent cities contiguous to the county in which Employee’s primary assigned office is located at the time employment is terminated (the “Non-Competition Area”);

(ii) provide financial or other assistance to any person, firm, corporation or enterprise engaged in (1) the banking (including bank holding company) or financial services industry, or (2) any other activity in which the Corporation or the Bank or any of their subsidiaries are engaged during the Employment Period, and remain so engaged at the end of the Employment Period, in the Non-Competition Area;

(iii) directly or indirectly solicit (including advertising, social media or outreach) persons or entities who were customers, prospects or referral sources of the Corporation, the Bank or their subsidiaries within one (1) year of Employee’s termination of employment, to become a customer or referral source of a person or entity other than the Corporation, the Bank or their subsidiaries, provided, however that the use of general advertising or social media posts not targeted specifically to such customers, prospects or referral sources, shall not be deemed to be direct or indirect solicitation; or,

(iv) directly or indirectly solicit employees of the Corporation, the Bank or their subsidiaries who were employed within two (2) years of Employee’s termination of employment to leave the employ of the Corporation, the Bank or their subsidiaries or work for anyone other than the Corporation, the Bank or their subsidiaries.

(b)

It is expressly understood and agreed that, although Employee and the Corporation and the Bank consider the restrictions contained in Section 9(a) hereof reasonable for the purpose of preserving for the Corporation and the Bank and their subsidiaries their goodwill and other proprietary rights, if a final judicial determination is made by a court having jurisdiction that the time or territory or any other restriction contained in Section 9(a) hereof is an unreasonable or otherwise unenforceable restriction against Employee, the provisions of Section 9(a) hereof shall not be rendered void but shall be deemed amended to apply as to such maximum time and territory and to such other extent as such court may judicially determine or indicate to be reasonable.

(c)

The provisions of Sections 9(a)(i) and 9(a)(ii) shall be applicable commencing on the effective date of the Employment Period of this Agreement and ending six (6) months after the effective date of termination of employment for any reason and the provisions of Sections 9(a)(iii) and 9(a)(iv) shall be applicable commencing on the effective date of the Employment Period of this Agreement and ending one (1) year after the effective date of termination of employment for any reason.

10.

Unauthorized Disclosure. During the term of his employment hereunder, or at any later time, Employee shall not, without the written consent of the Board of Directors of the Bank or a person authorized thereby, knowingly disclose to any person, other than an employee of the Corporation or the Bank or a person to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance by Employee of his duties as an Employee of the Bank, any material confidential information obtained by him while in the employ of the Bank with respect to any of the Corporation’s and the Bank’s services, products, improvements, formulas, designs or styles, processes, customers, methods of business, or any business practices the disclosure of which could be or will be damaging to the Corporation or the Bank; provided, however, that confidential information shall not include any information known generally to the public (other than as a result of unauthorized disclosure by Employee or any person with the assistance, consent or direction of Employee) or any information of a type not otherwise considered confidential by persons engaged in the same business or a business similar to that conducted by the Corporation and the Bank or any information that must be disclosed as required by law.

11.

Work Made for Hire. Any work performed by Employee under this Agreement should be considered a “Work Made for Hire” as the phrase is defined by the U.S. Copyright Act of 1976 and shall be owned by and for the express benefit of the Bank and its affiliates and subsidiaries. In the event it should be established that such work does not qualify as a Work Made for Hire, Employee agrees to and does hereby assign to the Bank, and its affiliates and subsidiaries, all of his rights, title, and/or interest in such work product, including, but not limited to, all copyrights, patents, trademarks, and propriety rights.

12.

Return of Company Property and Documents. Employee agrees that, at the time of termination of his employment, regardless of the reason for termination, he will deliver to the Bank and its affiliates and subsidiaries, any and all company property, including, but not limited to, automobiles, keys, security codes or passes, mobile telephones, laptops, notebooks, records, data, notes, reports, proposals, lists, correspondence, specifications, drawings, blueprints, sketches, software programs, mobile apps, equipment, other documents or property, or reproductions of any of the aforementioned items developed or obtained by Employee during the course of his employment and keep no copies thereof. The Bank has the right to inspect personal computers and other electronic storage.

13.

Liability Insurance. The Bank shall obtain liability insurance coverage for Employee under an insurance policy with similar terms as that which is currently covering officers and employees of the Bank against lawsuits, arbitrations or other legal or regulatory proceedings. Except for gross recklessness, willful misconduct, or commission of a criminal act, the Bank shall indemnify Employee to the fullest extent permitted by Pennsylvania law and the Bank’s bylaws, with respect to any threatened, pending or completed legal or regulatory action, suit or proceeding, brought against him by reason of the fact that he is or was an officer, Employee or agent of the Bank or is or was serving at the request of the Bank or the Corporation as a director, officer, Employee or agent of another person or entity. The indemnification contemplated herein shall only be provided to Employee if there is no insurance coverage for the payment of expenses incurred by Employee, in connection with any threatened, pending or completed legal or regulatory action, suit or proceeding, provided under any insurance policy in the name of or for the benefit of the Bank or Employee as the insured and so permitted under the applicable laws and regulations serving the Bank.

14.

Mitigation. Employee shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in this Agreement by seeking other employment or otherwise.

15.

Survival. The provisions, rights and obligations of Paragraphs 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 22 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

16.

Section 409A.

(a)

If when Employee’s employment terminates, the Employee is a “specified employee,” as defined in Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), then despite any provision of this Agreement or other plan or agreement to the contrary, Employee will not be entitled to the payments until the earliest of: (a) the date that is at least six (6) months after Employee’s separation from service, as defined in Code Section 409A, for reasons other than Employee’s death, (b) the date of Employee’s death, or (c) any earlier date that does not result in additional tax or interest to Employee under Code Section 409A. As promptly as possible after the end of the period during which payments are delayed under this provision, the entire amount of the delayed payments shall be paid to Employee in a single lump sum with any remaining payments to commence in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or other applicable plan or agreement.

(b)

Any payments made pursuant to this Agreement, to the extent of payments made from the date of termination through March 15th of the calendar year following such date, are intended to constitute separate payments for purposes of Treas. Reg. §1.409A-2(b)(2) and thus payable pursuant to the “short-term deferral” rule set forth in Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(b)(4); to the extent such payments are made following said March 15th, they are intended to constitute separate payments for purposes of Treas. Reg. §1.409A-2(b)(2) made upon an involuntary termination from service and payable pursuant to Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii), to the maximum extent permitted by said provision.

(c)

The parties hereto intend that any and all post-employment compensation under this Agreement satisfy the requirements of Section 409A or an exception or exclusion therefrom to avoid the imposition of any accelerated or additional taxes pursuant to Section 409A. Any terms not specifically defined shall have the meaning as set forth in Section 409A.

(d)

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no payment shall be made pursuant to this Agreement unless such termination of employment is a “separation of service” as defined in Code Section 409A.

17.

Notices. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any notice required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be deemed properly given if in writing and if mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid with return receipt requested, to Employee’s residence, in the case of notices to Employee, and to the principal Employee office of the Bank, in the case of notices to the Bank.

18.

Waiver. No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by Employee and an Employee officer specifically designated by the Board of Directors of the Bank. No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time.

19.

Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assignable by any party, except by the Corporation or Bank to any successor in interest to its respective business.

20.

Entire Agreement. This Agreement supersedes any and all agreements, either oral or in writing, between the parties with respect to the employment of the Employee by the Bank and/or the Corporation. This Agreement contains all the covenants and agreements between the parties with respect to employment and related matters.

21.

Successors; Binding Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Employee’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. If Employee should die after a Notice of Termination is delivered by Employee, after a Change in Control, or following termination of Employee’s employment without Cause, and any amounts would be payable to Employee under this Agreement if Employee had continued to live, all such amounts shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to Employee’s devisee, legatee, or other designee, or, if there is no such designee, to Employee’s estate.

22.

Arbitration. The Bank and Employee recognize that in the event a dispute should arise between them concerning the interpretation or implementation of this Agreement, lengthy and expensive litigation will not afford a practical resolution of the issues within a reasonable period of time. Consequently, each party agrees that all disputes, disagreements and questions of interpretation concerning this Agreement (except for Bank’s enforcement sought with respect to Sections 9, 10, 11 or 12 which may be litigated in court, including an action for injunction, monetary damages, or other relief) are to be submitted for resolution, in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, to the American Arbitration Association (the “Association”) in accordance with the Association’s National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes or other applicable rules then in effect (“Rules”). The Bank or Employee may initiate an arbitration proceeding at any time by giving notice to the other in accordance with the Rules. The Bank and Employee may, as a matter of right, mutually agree on the appointment of a particular arbitrator from the Association’s pool. The arbitrator shall not be bound by the rules of evidence and procedure of the courts of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, but shall be bound by the substantive law applicable to this Agreement. The decision of the arbitrator, absent fraud, duress, incompetence or gross and obvious error of fact, shall be final and binding upon the parties and shall be enforceable in courts of proper jurisdiction. Following written notice of a request for arbitration, the Bank and Employee shall be entitled to an injunction restraining all further proceedings in any pending or subsequently filed litigation concerning this Agreement, except as otherwise provided herein or any enforcement sought with respect to Sections 9, 10, 11 or 12 of this Agreement, including an action for injunction, monetary damages, or other relief. The substantially prevailing party in any court or arbitration proceeding to enforce this Agreement shall be entitled to recover its reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees relating to the proceeding from the substantially non-prevailing party.

23.

Validity. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.

24.

Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic, internal laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without regard to its conflicts of laws principles. In addition, in the event that the Corporation’s or the Bank’s regulators determine that this Agreement is not a safe and sound practice or in the event that 12 C.F.R. Part 359 applies, then the Bank shall only be required to make such payments as are permitted by the applicable regulatory agency.

25.

Headings. The section headings of this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or construction or limit the scope or intent of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

26.

Pronouns. All personal pronouns used in this Agreement, whether used in the masculine, feminine or neuter gender, shall include all other genders, and the singular shall include the plural and vice versa.

FORM OF

GENERAL RELEASE

THIS GENERAL RELEASE (“Release”) is provided in favor of ACNB Corporation and ACNB Bank (collectively “ACNB”) by (hereafter “Employee”).

B.             ACNB and Employee have agreed to termination of the employment relationship in accordance with the terms of the Employment Agreement; and

C.              Employee wishes to accept the termination compensation and benefits and is willing to execute this General Release in favor of ACNB and any entities and individuals affiliated with ACNB as further described in Section 1 hereof.

AGREEMENT

IN CONSIDERATION of the covenants, mutual promises and agreements contained herein, and intending to be legally bound, Employee and ACNB agree as follows:

General Release. In consideration for the compensation extended to Employee under the Employment Agreement, which consideration is in excess of anything of value to which Employee may already be entitled without this Release, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Employee, on behalf of himself and his heirs, estates, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, does hereby irrevocably and unconditionally release, acquit and forever discharge ACNB Corporation, ACNB Bank and all of ACNB’s subsidiaries, affiliates and related entities, and all of their Boards, directors, officers, affiliates, agents, contractors, consultants, attorneys, insurers, representatives and employees, past and present, collectively or individually, and their successors and assigns, from any and all claims, demands, losses, liabilities, and causes of action of any nature or kind whatsoever related to Employee's employment with ACNB or separation therefrom, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, which arose or accrued on or before the effective date of this Agreement (hereafter collectively referred to as “Claims”). This General Release includes all claims, without limitation, for discrimination, wrongful discharge, breach of contract (whether express or implied), interference with contract, breach of fiduciary duty, breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, emotional distress, fraud, misrepresentation, conspiracy, defamation, claims arising under the Civil Rights Acts of 1964 and 1991, as amended, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended, Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, National Labor Relations Act, Fair Labor Standards Act, Federal Equal Pay Act, Immigration Reform and Control Act, Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act, Genetic Information Non-Discrimination Act, Employee Retirement Income Security Act(s), Family and Medical Leave Act, Worker Adjustment Retraining and Notification Act, the Pennsylvania Human Relations Act, the Pennsylvania Wage Payment and Collection Law, the Pennsylvania Minimum Wage Act, any claim under Maryland law, including Title 20 of the State Government Article of the Maryland Annotated Code, and any other state or local plant closing laws, fair employment practices acts, wage payment and collection laws, minimum wage acts, equal pay acts, and any and all other claims arising under federal, state or local law, rule, regulation, constitution, ordinance, common law or public policy, whether known or unknown, arising up to and including the date of execution of this Agreement. BY SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT, EMPLOYEE AGREES TO GIVE UP, OR WAIVE, ANY RIGHTS OR CLAIMS EMPLOYEE MAY HAVE HAD UNDER THE AGE DISCRIMINATION IN EMPLOYMENT ACT OF 1967, 29 U.S.C. §621 et. seq., AS AMENDED, OR ANY OTHER STATUTE OR OTHER LAW, BASED ON ACTIONS OF ACNB, ITS EMPLOYEES OR AGENTS, WHICH OCCURRED UP THROUGH THE DATE YOU SIGN THIS AGREEMENT.

This General Release excludes, and Employee does not waive, release, or discharge: (1) any right to file an administrative charge or complaint with, or to participate in an investigation or proceeding conducted by, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or National Labor Relations Board (although Employee agrees that Employee shall not seek, accept or be entitled to any monetary relief, whether for Employee individually or as a member of a class or group arising from any such charge, complaint or investigation pursued by Employee or on Employee’s behalf, individually or as a member of a class or group); (2) claims which cannot be waived by law; and (3) any rights to vested benefits, such as pension or retirement benefits, the rights to which are governed by the terms of the applicable plan documents and/or award agreements; and further provided, that this General Release does not extend to claims that may arise after the date of execution of this Agreement.

Employee acknowledges that Employee has been fully compensated for all hours worked during Employee’s employment with ACNB, up to and including the date of this Agreement.

Return of Property. Employee shall immediately return to ACNB all property belonging to ACNB in accordance with Employee’s obligations under the Employment Agreement. No separation compensation will be provided unless and until all property required to be returned to ACNB has been returned by Employee.

Restrictive Covenants. Employee shall continue to be bound by the restrictive covenants, including without limitation, those covenants restricting Employee’s use of ACNB’s confidential and proprietary information and Employee’s post-employment activities, all of which covenants and related remedies for breach survive termination of Employee’s employment with ACNB.

No Disparagement. ACNB and Employee agree not to make disparaging remarks about or engage in other disparagement of each other: ACNB agrees not to make disparaging remarks about or engage in other disparagement of Employee; and Employee agrees not to make disparaging remarks about or engage in other disparagement of ACNB and its directors, officers, Employees, employees, affiliates or any other aspect of its operations.

Non-Admission of Liability. By making this Agreement, the parties hereto are not admitting that either has committed any wrong. The parties agree that this Agreement is inadmissible as evidence in any proceeding, legal or otherwise, except to the extent necessary to enforce its provisions.

Consideration. Employee acknowledges and confirms that the only consideration for his execution of this Agreement is set forth herein and in his Employment Agreement, that no other promises or agreements of any kind have been made to him by any person or entity whatsoever to cause him to sign this Agreement and that he fully understands the meaning and intent of this Agreement.

No Modification. Any amendment to, modification of, or supplement to this Agreement must be in writing and signed by each party or his expressly authorized representative.

Assignment; Successors and Assigns. ACNB shall have the right to assign its rights, duties and obligations hereunder to any direct or indirect subsidiary or affiliate of ACNB, or any successor in interest of ACNB, whether by merger, consolidation, purchase/sale of assets or otherwise without the prior written consent of Employee.

Governing Law; Jurisdiction and Venue. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania without regard to choice of law provisions, and exclusive jurisdiction and venue for any actions relating to this Agreement shall lie in the Adams County Court of Common Pleas located in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.

Representations. Employee makes the following additional representations to ACNB, each of which is significant and an important consideration for ACNB’s willingness to enter into this Agreement:

10.1.            Employee expressly acknowledges that if he did not execute this Agreement, he would not be entitled to receive the compensation provided for in his Employment Agreement.

10.2.            Employee acknowledges that he has been given a full and fair opportunity to review this Agreement. ACNB specifically recommends that Employee consult with an attorney before executing this Agreement, and Employee has made his own determination about whether to do so. Further, Employee acknowledges that he has had a reasonable time, that is, up to twenty-one (21) days, within which to consider whether to accept this Agreement, and that he is free to accept this Agreement prior to expiration of the twenty-one (21) days if he so desires. Employee further acknowledges that if he has not returned an executed version of this Agreement to ACNB by the close of business on the twenty-first day following delivery of this offer to him, such offer will be deemed to have been withdrawn by ACNB.

10.3.            Employee agrees that ACNB specifically disclaims any liability for any wrongdoing as may be alleged by Employee and that this Agreement is not and shall not be construed as an admission of any liability or violation of the rights of any individual, violation of any law, statute, duty or contract whatsoever by ACNB.

10.4.            Employee understands and acknowledges that he may revoke this Agreement at any time during the seven (7) days immediately following the date he signs the Agreement, provided such revocation is provided in writing and received by ACNB at its headquarters in Gettysburg, PA, in which case none of the provisions of the Agreement will have any effect. Employee understands that he will not be entitled to receive any payment under the Agreement until the seven (7) day revocation period has expired without his revoking the Agreement. Acceptance of payment shall be a further indication that Employee has accepted the terms of the Agreement and has decided not to revoke that acceptance.

10.5            Employee understands that, by signing this Agreement, Employee will lose his right to sue ACNB, or any of its employees or agents, for any violation of the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (the federal law which prohibits discrimination on the basis of age), or any other statute or other law; and

10.6            Employee hereby acknowledges that he fully and completely understands and accepts the terms of this Agreement, has the legal capacity to enter into this Agreement, has had the opportunity to seek the advice of counsel with respect to this Agreement and has signed this Agreement knowingly and voluntarily.

WHEREAS, Executive is not a party nor subject to any employment, noncompete, non-solicitation or restrictive covenant agreements, or any other restrictions or agreements that would hinder or limit his ability to fully perform his duties hereunder, except the Traditions Agreement and any agreements as identified on Schedule I attached hereto and deemed an integral part hereof;

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Bank has agreed to offer Executive the position of President, Traditions Division of ACNB Bank and this employment agreement (“Agreement”);

WHEREAS, as an inducement for Corporation, Bank, and Subsidiary to enter into the Merger Agreement, Executive agrees to enter into this Agreement;

During the term of this Agreement, Executive shall be entitled to participate in or receive the benefits of any employee benefit plan currently in effect at the Bank, subject to Executive’s eligibility and the terms of said plan, until such time that the Board of Directors of the Bank authorize a change in such benefits. The Bank shall not make any changes in such plans or benefits which would adversely affect Executive’s rights or benefits thereunder, unless such change occurs pursuant to a program applicable to all executive officers of the Bank or to all similarly situated employees or group of employees, subject to such plan and does not result in a proportionately greater adverse change in the rights of or benefits to Executive as compared with any other similarly situated employee or group of employees subject to such plan of the Bank. Nothing paid to Executive under any plan or arrangement presently in effect or made available in the future shall be deemed to be in lieu of the salary payable to Executive pursuant to Section 5(a) hereof.

	7.	Rights in Event of Termination Following a Change in Control. In the event that Executive terminates employment for Good Reason as defined in Section 4(c) within one hundred eighty (180) days of a Change in Control or Executive is involuntarily terminated without Cause after a Change in Control (as defined in Section 6(b) of this Agreement), Executive shall be entitled to receive the compensation and benefits set forth below:

		The Bank shall pay Executive a lump sum amount equal to and no greater than 2.0 times Executive’s Agreed Compensation as defined in subsection (g) of Section 4, minus applicable taxes and withholdings, within thirty (30) days of termination of employment. In addition, for a period of one (1) year from the date of termination of employment, or until Executive secures substantially similar benefits through other employment, whichever shall first occur, Executive shall receive a continuation of all life, disability, medical insurance and other normal health and welfare benefits in effect with respect to Executive at the date of Executive’s termination of employment, or, if the Bank cannot provide such benefits because Executive is no longer an employee, the Bank shall reimburse Executive in an amount equal to the monthly premium paid by him to obtain substantially similar employee benefits which he enjoyed prior to termination, subject to Code Section 409A if applicable, for a period of one (1) year from the date of termination of employment, or until Executive secures substantially similar benefits through other employment, whichever shall first occur.

		However, in the event the payment described herein, when added to all other amounts or benefits provided to or on behalf of the Executive in connection with his termination of employment, would result in the imposition of an excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code, such payments shall be retroactively reduced to the extent necessary to avoid such excise tax imposition. Upon written notice to Executive, together with calculations of Corporation’s independent auditors, Executive shall remit to Corporation the amount of the reduction plus such interest as may be necessary to avoid the imposition of such excise tax. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this contract to the contrary, if any portion of the amount herein payable to the Executive is determined to be non-deductible pursuant to the regulations promulgated under Section 280G of the Code, then Corporation shall be required only to pay to Executive the amount determined to be deductible under Section 280G.

	8.	Rights in Event of Termination of Employment Absent Change in Control. In the event that Executive’s employment is involuntarily terminated by the Bank without Cause after the date of this Agreement and no Change in Control shall have occurred at the date of such termination, the Bank shall pay Executive subject to Bank’s receipt of a release substantially in the form of Exhibit A an amount equal to the remaining balance of the Executive’s Agreed Compensation for the remaining Term of the Agreement, payable in a lump sum within thirty (30) days of termination of employment, subject to federal, state and local tax withholdings.

		In addition, for a period of time equal to the remaining term of this Agreement, or until Executive secures substantially similar benefits through other employment, whichever shall first occur, Executive shall receive a continuation of all life, disability, medical insurance and other normal health and welfare benefits in effect with respect to Executive at the date of Executive’s termination of employment, or, if the Bank cannot provide such benefits because Executive is no longer an employee, the Bank shall reimburse Executive in an amount equal to the monthly premium paid by him to obtain substantially similar employee benefits which he enjoyed prior to termination, subject to Code Section 409A if applicable, for a period from the date of termination of employment until the end of the term of this Agreement, or until Executive secures substantially similar benefits through other employment, whichever shall first occur.

(i) be engaged, directly or indirectly, either for his own account or as agent, consultant, employee, partner, officer, director, proprietor, investor (except as an investor owning less than 5% of the stock of a publicly owned company) or otherwise of any person, firm, corporation or enterprise engaged in (1) the banking (including bank holding company) or financial services industry, or (2) any other activity in which the Corporation or the Bank or any of their subsidiaries are engaged during the Employment Period, and remain so engaged at the end of the Employment Period, in any county in which a branch, office or other facility of the Corporation or the Bank is located during the Employment Period or in any county contiguous to such county (the “Non-Competition Area”);

(iii) directly or indirectly solicit (including advertising, social media or outreach) persons or entities who were customers, prospects or referral sources of the Corporation, the Bank or their subsidiaries within one (1) year of Executive’s termination of employment, to become a customer or referral source of a person or entity other than the Corporation, the Bank or their subsidiaries, provided, however that the use of general advertising or social media posts not targeted specifically to such customers, prospects or referral sources, shall not be deemed to be direct or indirect solicitation; or,

(iv) directly or indirectly solicit employees of the Corporation, the Bank or their subsidiaries who were employed within two (2) years of Executive’s termination of employment to work for anyone other than the Corporation, the Bank or their subsidiaries.

(b)

It is expressly understood and agreed that, although Executive and the Corporation and the Bank consider the restrictions contained in Section 9(a) hereof reasonable for the purpose of preserving for the Corporation and the Bank and their subsidiaries their goodwill and other proprietary rights, if a final judicial determination is made by a court having jurisdiction that the time or territory or any other restriction contained in Section 9(a) hereof is an unreasonable or otherwise unenforceable restriction against Executive, the provisions of Section 9(a) hereof shall not be rendered void but shall be deemed amended to apply as to such maximum time and territory and to such other extent as such court may judicially determine or indicate to be reasonable.

(c)

The provisions of this Section 9 shall be applicable commencing on the effective date of the Employment Period of this Agreement and ending on the first anniversary date of the effective date of termination of employment for any reason.

10.

Unauthorized Disclosure. During the term of his employment hereunder, or at any later time, Executive shall not, without the written consent of the Board of Directors of the Bank or a person authorized thereby, knowingly disclose to any person, other than an employee of the Corporation or the Bank or a person to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance by Executive of his duties as an executive of the Bank, any material confidential information obtained by him while in the employ of the Bank with respect to any of the Corporation’s and the Bank’s services, products, improvements, formulas, designs or styles, processes, customers, methods of business, or any business practices the disclosure of which could be or will be damaging to the Corporation or the Bank; provided, however, that confidential information shall not include any information known generally to the public (other than as a result of unauthorized disclosure by Executive or any person with the assistance, consent or direction of Executive) or any information of a type not otherwise considered confidential by persons engaged in the same business or a business similar to that conducted by the Corporation and the Bank or any information that must be disclosed as required by law.

11.

Work Made for Hire. Any work performed by Executive under this Agreement should be considered a “Work Made for Hire” as the phrase is defined by the U.S. Copyright Act of 1976 and shall be owned by and for the express benefit of the Bank and its affiliates and subsidiaries. In the event it should be established that such work does not qualify as a Work Made for Hire, Executive agrees to and does hereby assign to the Bank, and its affiliates and subsidiaries, all of his rights, title, and/or interest in such work product, including, but not limited to, all copyrights, patents, trademarks, and propriety rights.

12.

Return of Company Property and Documents. Executive agrees that, at the time of termination of his employment, regardless of the reason for termination, he will deliver to the Bank and its affiliates and subsidiaries, any and all company property, including, but not limited to, automobiles, keys, security codes or passes, mobile telephones, laptops, notebooks, records, data, notes, reports, proposals, lists, correspondence, specifications, drawings, blueprints, sketches, software programs, mobile apps, equipment, other documents or property, or reproductions of any of the aforementioned items developed or obtained by Executive during the course of his employment and keep no copies thereof. The Bank has the right to inspect personal computers and other electronic storage.

13.

Liability Insurance. The Bank shall obtain liability insurance coverage for Executive under an insurance policy with similar terms as that which is currently covering officers and employees of the Bank against lawsuits, arbitrations or other legal or regulatory proceedings. Except for gross recklessness, willful misconduct, or commission of a criminal act, the Bank shall indemnify Executive to the fullest extent permitted by Pennsylvania law and the Bank’s bylaws, with respect to any threatened, pending or completed legal or regulatory action, suit or proceeding, brought against him by reason of the fact that he is or was an officer, executive or agent of the Bank or is or was serving at the request of the Bank or the Corporation as a director, officer, executive or agent of another person or entity. The indemnification contemplated herein shall only be provided to Executive if there is no insurance coverage for the payment of expenses incurred by Executive, in connection with any threatened, pending or completed legal or regulatory action, suit or proceeding, provided under any insurance policy in the name of or for the benefit of the Bank or Executive as the insured and so permitted under the applicable laws and regulations serving the Bank.

14.

Mitigation. Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in this Agreement by seeking other employment or otherwise.

15.

Survival. The provisions, rights and obligations of Paragraphs 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 22 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

16.

Section 409A.

(a)

If when Executive’s employment terminates, the Executive is a “specified employee,” as defined in Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), then despite any provision of this Agreement or other plan or agreement to the contrary, Executive will not be entitled to the payments until the earliest of: (a) the date that is at least six (6) months after Executive’s separation from service, as defined in Code Section 409A, for reasons other than Executive’s death, (b) the date of Executive’s death, or (c) any earlier date that does not result in additional tax or interest to Executive under Code Section 409A. As promptly as possible after the end of the period during which payments are delayed under this provision, the entire amount of the delayed payments shall be paid to Executive in a single lump sum with any remaining payments to commence in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or other applicable plan or agreement.

(b)

(c)

(d)

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no payment shall be made pursuant to this Agreement unless such termination of employment is a “separation of service” as defined in Code Section 409A.

17.

Notices. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any notice required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be deemed properly given if in writing and if mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid with return receipt requested, to Executive’s residence, in the case of notices to Executive, and to the principal executive office of the Bank, in the case of notices to the Bank.

18.

Waiver. No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by Executive and an executive officer specifically designated by the Board of Directors of the Bank. No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time.

19.

Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assignable by any party, except by the Corporation or Bank to any successor in interest to its respective business.

20.

Entire Agreement. This Agreement supersedes any and all agreements, either oral or in writing, between the parties with respect to the employment of Executive by the Bank and/or the Corporation. This Agreement contains all the covenants and agreements between the parties with respect to employment and related matters.

21.

Successors; Binding Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. If Executive should die after a Notice of Termination is delivered by Executive, after a Change in Control, or following termination of Executive’s employment without Cause, and any amounts would be payable to Executive under this Agreement if Executive had continued to live, all such amounts shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to Executive’s devisee, legatee, or other designee, or, if there is no such designee, to Executive’s estate.

22.

Arbitration. The Bank and Executive recognize that in the event a dispute should arise between them concerning the interpretation or implementation of this Agreement, lengthy and expensive litigation will not afford a practical resolution of the issues within a reasonable period of time. Consequently, each party agrees that all disputes, disagreements and questions of interpretation concerning this Agreement (except for Bank’s enforcement sought with respect to Sections 9, 10, 11 or 12 which may be litigated in court, including an action for injunction, monetary damages, or other relief) are to be submitted for resolution, in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, to the American Arbitration Association (the “Association”) in accordance with the Association’s National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes or other applicable rules then in effect (“Rules”). The Bank or Executive may initiate an arbitration proceeding at any time by giving notice to the other in accordance with the Rules. The Bank and Executive may, as a matter of right, mutually agree on the appointment of a particular arbitrator from the Association’s pool. The arbitrator shall not be bound by the rules of evidence and procedure of the courts of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, but shall be bound by the substantive law applicable to this Agreement. The decision of the arbitrator, absent fraud, duress, incompetence or gross and obvious error of fact, shall be final and binding upon the parties and shall be enforceable in courts of proper jurisdiction. Following written notice of a request for arbitration, the Bank and Executive shall be entitled to an injunction restraining all further proceedings in any pending or subsequently filed litigation concerning this Agreement, except as otherwise provided herein or any enforcement sought with respect to Sections 9, 10, 11 or 12 of this Agreement, including an action for injunction, monetary damages, or other relief. The substantially prevailing party in any court or arbitration proceeding to enforce this Agreement shall be entitled to recover its reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees relating to the proceeding from the substantially non-prevailing party.

AGREEMENT

IN CONSIDERATION of the covenants, mutual promises and agreements contained herein, and intending to be legally bound, Executive and ACNB agree as follows:

General Release. In consideration for the compensation extended to Executive under the Employment Agreement, which consideration is in excess of anything of value to which Executive may already be entitled without this Release, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Executive, on behalf of himself and his heirs, estates, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, does hereby irrevocably and unconditionally release, acquit and forever discharge ACNB Corporation, ACNB Bank and all of ACNB’s subsidiaries, affiliates and related entities, and all of their Boards, directors, officers, affiliates, agents, contractors, consultants, attorneys, insurers, representatives and employees, past and present, collectively or individually, and their successors and assigns, from any and all claims, demands, losses, liabilities, and causes of action of any nature or kind whatsoever related to Executive's employment with ACNB or separation therefrom, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, which arose or accrued on or before the effective date of this Agreement (hereafter collectively referred to as “Claims”). This General Release includes all claims, without limitation, for discrimination, wrongful discharge, breach of contract (whether express or implied), interference with contract, breach of fiduciary duty, breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, emotional distress, fraud, misrepresentation, conspiracy, defamation, claims arising under the Civil Rights Acts of 1964 and 1991, as amended, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended, Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, National Labor Relations Act, Fair Labor Standards Act, Federal Equal Pay Act, Immigration Reform and Control Act, Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act, Genetic Information Non-Discrimination Act, Employee Retirement Income Security Act(s), Family and Medical Leave Act, Worker Adjustment Retraining and Notification Act, the Pennsylvania Human Relations Act, the Pennsylvania Wage Payment and Collection Law, the Pennsylvania Minimum Wage Act, any claim under Maryland law, including Title 20 of the State Government Article of the Maryland Annotated Code, and any other state or local plant closing laws, fair employment practices acts, wage payment and collection laws, minimum wage acts, equal pay acts, and any and all other claims arising under federal, state or local law, rule, regulation, constitution, ordinance, common law or public policy, whether known or unknown, arising up to and including the date of execution of this Agreement. BY SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT, EXECUTIVE AGREES TO GIVE UP, OR WAIVE, ANY RIGHTS OR CLAIMS EXECUTIVE MAY HAVE HAD UNDER THE AGE DISCRIMINATION IN EMPLOYMENT ACT OF 1967, 29 U.S.C. §621 et. seq., AS AMENDED, OR ANY OTHER STATUTE OR OTHER LAW, BASED ON ACTIONS OF ACNB, ITS EMPLOYEES OR AGENTS, WHICH OCCURRED UP THROUGH THE DATE YOU SIGN THIS AGREEMENT.

This General Release excludes, and Executive does not waive, release, or discharge: (1) any right to file an administrative charge or complaint with, or to participate in an investigation or proceeding conducted by, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or National Labor Relations Board (although Executive agrees that Executive shall not seek, accept or be entitled to any monetary relief, whether for Executive individually or as a member of a class or group arising from any such charge, complaint or investigation pursued by Executive or on Executive’s behalf, individually or as a member of a class or group); (2) claims which cannot be waived by law; and (3) any rights to vested benefits, such as pension or retirement benefits, the rights to which are governed by the terms of the applicable plan documents and/or award agreements; and further provided, that this General Release does not extend to claims that may arise after the date of execution of this Agreement.

Executive acknowledges that Executive has been fully compensated for all hours worked during Executive’s employment with ACNB, up to and including the date of this Agreement.

Return of Property. Executive shall immediately return to ACNB all property belonging to ACNB in accordance with Executive’s obligations under the Employment Agreement. No separation compensation will be provided unless and until all property required to be returned to ACNB has been returned by Executive.

Restrictive Covenants. Executive shall continue to be bound by the restrictive covenants, including without limitation, those covenants restricting Executive’s use of ACNB’s confidential and proprietary information and Executive’s post-employment activities, all of which covenants and related remedies for breach survive termination of Executive’s employment with ACNB.

No Disparagement. ACNB and Executive agree not to make disparaging remarks about or engage in other disparagement of each other: ACNB agrees not to make disparaging remarks about or engage in other disparagement of Executive; and Executive agrees not to make disparaging remarks about or engage in other disparagement of ACNB and its directors, officers, executives, employees, affiliates or any other aspect of its operations.

Consideration. Executive acknowledges and confirms that the only consideration for his execution of this Agreement is set forth herein and in his Employment Agreement, that no other promises or agreements of any kind have been made to him by any person or entity whatsoever to cause him to sign this Agreement and that he fully understands the meaning and intent of this Agreement.

No Modification. Any amendment to, modification of, or supplement to this Agreement must be in writing and signed by each party or his expressly authorized representative.

Representations. Executive makes the following additional representations to ACNB, each of which is significant and an important consideration for ACNB’s willingness to enter into this Agreement:

10.1.            Executive expressly acknowledges that if he did not execute this Agreement, he would not be entitled to receive the compensation provided for in his Employment Agreement.

10.2.            Executive acknowledges that he has been given a full and fair opportunity to review this Agreement. ACNB specifically recommends that Executive consult with an attorney before executing this Agreement, and Executive has made his own determination about whether to do so. Further, Executive acknowledges that he has had a reasonable time, that is, up to twenty-one (21) days, within which to consider whether to accept this Agreement, and that he is free to accept this Agreement prior to expiration of the twenty-one (21) days if he so desires. Executive further acknowledges that if he has not returned an executed version of this Agreement to ACNB by the close of business on the twenty-first day following delivery of this offer to him, such offer will be deemed to have been withdrawn by ACNB.

10.3.            Executive agrees that ACNB specifically disclaims any liability for any wrongdoing as may be alleged by Executive and that this Agreement is not and shall not be construed as an admission of any liability or violation of the rights of any individual, violation of any law, statute, duty or contract whatsoever by ACNB.

10.4.            Executive understands and acknowledges that he may revoke this Agreement at any time during the seven (7) days immediately following the date he signs the Agreement, provided such revocation is provided in writing and received by ACNB at its headquarters in Gettysburg, PA, in which case none of the provisions of the Agreement will have any effect. Executive understands that he will not be entitled to receive any payment under the Agreement until the seven (7) day revocation period has expired without his revoking the Agreement. Acceptance of payment shall be a further indication that Executive has accepted the terms of the Agreement and has decided not to revoke that acceptance.

10.5.            Executive understands that, by signing this Agreement, Executive will lose his right to sue ACNB, or any of its employees or agents, for any violation of the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (the federal law which prohibits discrimination on the basis of age), or any other statute or other law; and

10.6.            Executive hereby acknowledges that he fully and completely understands and accepts the terms of this Agreement, has the legal capacity to enter into this Agreement, has had the opportunity to seek the advice of counsel with respect to this Agreement and has signed this Agreement knowingly and voluntarily.

Re:      Vice Chairman

Dear Gene:

We look forward to you becoming a Vice Chair of the Board of Directors of ACNB Corporation and ACNB Bank in accordance with and subject to Section 5.31 of the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated July 23, 2024, by and among ACNB Corporation and Traditions Bancorp, Inc., et al. (the “Merger Agreement”), the ACNB Corporation and ACNB Bank bylaws and the ACNB Corporation Corporate Governance Guidelines as they may be in effect from time to time. Terms defined herein shall have the same meaning as in the Merger Agreement.

A Vice Chair position and title exists and serves in accordance with and subject to the Bylaws of ACNB Corporation and ACNB Bank, the Corporate Governance Guidelines of ACNB Corporation and the Job Description of Vice Chair contained therein, as the same may be in effect from time to time, and any and all SEC regulations and rules, Nasdaq Listing and Governance Standards and requirements, and applicable law. A Vice Chair serves for a one-year term, which may be reelected on an annual basis by the respective Board of Directors with concurrence and reaffirmation of the Director.

Re: Affiliate Agreement

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Agreement”) dated as of July 23, 2024 by and among ACNB Corporation (“ACNB”), ACNB South Acquisition Subsidiary, LLC (“Acquisition Subsidiary”), ACNB Bank, Traditions Bancorp, Inc. (“Traditions”), and Traditions Bank (“Traditions Bank”) whereby Traditions will merge with and into the Acquisition Subsidiary (the “Merger”), and all of the outstanding common stock of Traditions (the “Traditions Common Stock”) will be converted into the right to receive common stock of ACNB (the “ACNB Common Stock”), it is anticipated that I will be appointed or elected to the boards of directors of ACNB and ACNB Bank.

I have been advised that, as a director of ACNB and ACNB Bank, I may be deemed an “affiliate” of ACNB, as that term is used for purposes of Rule 144 promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

I hereby agree that I will not offer to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the shares of ACNB Common Stock I own or will receive in connection with the Merger or otherwise except in compliance with the applicable provisions of SEC Rule 144.

I hereby consent to the placement of a stop transfer order with ACNB’s stock transfer agent and registrar and the endorsement on the certificates, if any, representing any shares of ACNB Common Stock owned by me, of a restrictive legend that will read, substantially, as follows:

“THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 144 PROMULGATED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), AND THESE SHARES MAY BE SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS OF A LETTER AGREEMENT FROM THE UNDERSIGNED TO ACNB CORPORATION AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE LIMITATIONS OF RULE 144.”

ACNB’s stock transfer agent and registrar shall be given an appropriate stop transfer order and will not be required to register any attempted transfer of ACNB Common Stock owned by me, unless the proposed transfer is effected in compliance with the terms of this letter agreement.

ACNB Corporation

Re: Affiliate Agreement

Page 2 of 2

I understand and agree that this letter agreement will terminate and be of no further force and effect and the legend set forth above will be removed, and the related stop transfer restrictions will be lifted forthwith, if:

(i)

any shares of the ACNB Common Stock are sold within the limits, and in accordance with the applicable provisions, of SEC Rule 144 under the Securities Act or upon expiration of all restrictions set forth in SEC Rule 144 applicable to me; or

(ii)

ACNB shall have received a “no action” letter from the staff of the SEC, or an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to ACNB, to the effect that the restrictions imposed by SEC Rule 144 are no longer applicable to me.

For so long as and to the extent necessary to permit the undersigned to sell the ACNB Common Stock that I own pursuant to SEC Rule 144, ACNB shall, subject to the restrictions set forth in this letter agreement, use its reasonable best efforts to comply with the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 144(c) under the Securities Act.

Very truly yours,

ACNB CORPORATION ANNOUNCES STRATEGIC ACQUISITION OF

TRADITIONS BANCORP, INC.

GETTYSBURG, PA, July 24, 2024 ACNB Corporation (NASDAQ: ACNB) (“ACNB” or the “Corporation”), financial holding company for ACNB Bank and ACNB Insurance Services, Inc., and Traditions Bancorp, Inc. (OTCPink: TRBK) (“Traditions”), holding company for Traditions Bank, York, Pennsylvania, announced today the execution of a definitive merger agreement whereby ACNB will acquire Traditions and Traditions Bank in an all-stock transaction. This strategic acquisition will result in a premier community bank that is locally headquartered, managed, and focused.

Speaking on behalf of ACNB, James P. Helt, President and CEO, stated that “ACNB Corporation has been executing a multi-year strategic plan to be the community bank of choice in the markets that we serve and thereby deliver superior financial results, performance and value to our shareholders and other stakeholders. At the core of this strategic plan has been profitable organic and inorganic growth. As demonstrated in today’s previously released Second Quarter of 2024 financial results press release, we continue to deliver on profitable organic growth in our core community banking and insurance agency lines of business. The announcement of our proposed strategic acquisition of Traditions and Traditions Bank is also in furtherance of this strategic plan. This transaction will provide the resources to expand our presence in York County and enhance our penetration in the vibrant and demographically compelling Lancaster County market”.

Speaking on behalf of Traditions, Eugene J. Draganosky, Traditions Bancorp, Inc. Chair of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, said “ACNB and Traditions share common cultures, values, vision and operating philosophies of what a community bank can and should be in today’s ever-changing business environment. For more than two decades, Traditions has done an exceptional job of creating a premier community bank, with an outstanding commercial banking team and an industry leading mortgage banking unit.”

Mr. Helt further stated, “The success of this investment will be accomplished with a group of bankers from both companies that are respected market leaders in their fields. We value the insights and perspectives of the team leaders and members from Traditions that will join us. To that end, three members of the Traditions Board will join the ACNB Corporation and ACNB Bank Boards of Directors with Eugene Draganosky, Traditions’ Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board joining the ACNB Boards as a Vice Chair. Thomas J. Sposito, II, Traditions’ President, will join ACNB Bank, as President of our Traditions Bank, a division of ACNB Bank upon completion of the transaction. Further, Traditions Founder, Michael E. Kochenour, will join ACNB as a Director Emeritus.”

Traditions Bank operates eight bank branch locations spanning York and Lancaster counties, a loan production office in Cumberland County, and an operations center located at 226 Pauline Drive, York, PA. Established in 2002, Traditions Bank is a full-service community bank serving businesses, individuals, and community organizations. As of June 30, 2024, Traditions had total assets of $859 million, total deposits of $738 million, and total loans of $673 million. Upon the consummation of the strategic acquisition, ACNB Bank will operate former Traditions Bank locations in the York and Lancaster County markets as “Traditions Bank, A Division of ACNB Bank.” The current Traditions Bank administrative headquarters on Pauline Drive will continue to serve as a regional sales and operations center.

Pursuant to the terms of the Definitive Agreement, Traditions shareholders will receive 0.7300 shares of ACNB common stock for each share of Traditions common stock that they own as of the closing date. Based on the 20-day Volume Weighted Average Price of ACNB common stock as of July 19, 2024, the transaction is valued at $73.5 million or $26.43 per share of common stock. Following completion of the transaction, Traditions shareholders will receive a quarterly cash dividend equal to approximately $0.23 per Traditions share of common stock based on ACNB’s current quarterly dividend of $0.32 per ACNB share of common stock. This dividend is approximately 192% higher than Tradition’s current quarterly dividend of $0.08 per Traditions share of common stock. The transaction is intended to qualify as a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax purposes. The transaction has been unanimously approved by the boards of directors of both companies. It is subject to Traditions shareholder approval, ACNB shareholder approval of the shares to be issued in this transaction, regulatory approvals, and other customary closing conditions. The Definitive Agreement contains customary “deal protection” provisions including a “termination fee” payable to ACNB upon certain events delineated in the definitive agreement in an amount equal to approximately four percent (4%) of the transaction value.

Currently, the transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2025, after all such conditions provided in the definitive agreement have been met or, where permissible, waived. Two Traditions branch locations, 235 St. Charles Way, York, PA 17402 and 361 Eisenhower Drive, Hanover, PA 17731 and an ACNB loan production office, 1601 South Queen Street, York, PA, 17403 are currently anticipated to be consolidated to the nearest ACNB or Traditions Bank location at a date to be determined following completion of the strategic acquisition.

Mr. Helt further stated, “We are excited to welcome Traditions as ACNB Corporation expands its presence in the Pennsylvania market. York and Lancaster are growing, vibrant markets for community banking, which is at the core of ACNB Corporation’s success for more than 165 years. This strategic acquisition is intended to complement our operations with profitable growth opportunities adjacent to our current footprint, while contributing to the Corporation’s established commitment of enhancing long-term shareholder value. We certainly look forward to sharing our commitment to community banking with customers and other stakeholders in the York and Lancaster markets.”

Based on the financial results as of June 30, 2024, the combined company would have pro forma total assets of $3.3 billion, total deposits of $2.6 billion, and total gross loans of $2.4 billion. Once the acquisition and consolidation are complete, ACNB will have 32 community banking offices in Pennsylvania and Maryland, offering a full range of integrated financial services including banking, trust, retail brokerage, insurance and expanded mortgage products and services.

“As Traditions has been customer-focused since its founding in 2002, we are sincerely seeking to minimize any transition impacts on customers. And, although we know there will be changes as operations and systems are combined in 2025, the customer experience is also fundamental at ACNB Corporation. Familiar people with familiar faces are an important component of community banking, and we recognize and embrace that dynamic,” Mr. Helt said.

Mr. Draganosky added, “We are pleased to join forces with a company that has laid a clear course for the future, and one which we believe meets the objectives of our stakeholders due to its rich history, strong financial performance, and solid record of delivering shareholder value. ACNB Corporation provides the opportunity to continue the community banking vision upon which Traditions was founded with greater resources to serve the York and Lancaster communities into the future.”

Forward‐Looking Statements & Additional Disclosures 2 Forward Looking Statements: This presentation contains statements which, to the extent that they are not recitations of historical fact may constitute forward‐looking statements for purposes of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward‐looking statements may include financial and other projections as well as statements regarding ACNB Corporation (the “Corporation,” or “ACNB”) that may include future plans, objectives, performance, revenues, growth, profits, operating expenses or the Corporation’s underlying assumptions. The words “may”, “would”, “should”, “will”, “likely”, “possibly”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “estimate”, “target”, “potentially”, “probably”, “outlook”, “predict”, “contemplate”, “continue”, “strategic”, “objective”, “plan”, “forecast”, “project” and “believe” or other similar words, phrases or concepts may identify forward‐looking statements. Persons reading or present at this presentation are cautioned that such statements are only predictions, and that the Corporation’s actual future, results or performance may be materially different. Such forward‐looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties. A number of factors, many of which are beyond the Corporation’s control, could cause our actual results, events or developments, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, events or developments expressed, implied or anticipated by such forward‐looking statements, and so our business and financial condition and result of operations could be materially and adversely affected. In the context of the proposed transaction with Traditions Bancorp, Inc. (“Traditions,” or “TRBK”), such factors include, among others: that the execution of the transaction may take longer than anticipated or be more costly to complete and that the anticipated benefits, including any anticipated cost savings or strategic gains, may be significantly harder to achieve or take longer than anticipated or may not be achieved at all; that the banking regulatory approvals we require for the transaction will not be obtained in a timely manner or at all or will be conditioned in a manner that would impair our ability to implement our business plans; integration efforts between the Corporation and Traditions may divert the attention of the management teams of the Corporation and Traditions and cause a loss in the momentum of their ongoing businesses; and success of the Corporation in Traditions' geographic market area will require the Corporation to attract and retain key personnel in the market and to differentiate the Corporation from its competitors in the market. All forward‐looking statements and information made herein are based on management’s current beliefs and assumptions as of July 24, 2024 and speak only as of that date. The Corporation does not undertake to update forward‐ looking statements. For a complete discussion of the assumptions, risks and uncertainties related to our business generally, you are encouraged to review our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our most recent annual report on Form 10‐K, as well as any changes in risk factors that we may identify in our quarterly or other reports subsequently filed with SEC.
