EXPLANATORY NOTE

The Company is amending Item 4 of Part I , Item 1A. of Part II and Item 4 of Part II of the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 (the “Form 10-Q”) to read in their entirety as set forth below.

The Form 10-Q as amended hereby continues to speak as of the date of the Form 10-Q and the disclosures have not been updated to speak as of any later date. Any items in this Form 10-Q/A that are not expressly changed hereby shall be as set forth in the Form 10-Q. All information contained in this Amendment No. 1 and the Form 10-Q is subject to updating and supplementing as provided in the Company’s periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission subsequent to the filing of the Form 10-Q.

Pursuant to SEC Rule 12b-15, in connection with this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A, the Company is filing updated Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, 32.1, and 32.2.

ITEM 4 — CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains a set of disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation our CEO and CFO concluded, as a result of the material weakness described in the following paragraph, that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at June 30, 2009.

As described in Item 9A(T) in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year-ended December 31, 2008, management had identified a material weakness associated with internal controls related to the accounting for deferred income taxes. To remediate this weakness, the Company engaged a nationally recognized independent public accounting firm to review the Company’s accounting procedures related to deferred income taxes for December 31, 2008 and March 31, 2009. The Company continued to consult with the independent public accounting firm during the second quarter of 2009.

(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Other than as described above, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the second quarter of 2009 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any controls system. A controls system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its objectives are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are limits on resources, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs and their impact on the business model. We intend to continue to improve and refine our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Before making an investment decision, investors should carefully consider the risks described below and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 in conjunction with the other information in

this report, including our consolidated financial statements and related notes. If any of the following risks or other risks, which have not been identified or which we may believe are immaterial or unlikely, actually occurs, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be harmed. In such a case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and investors may lose all or part of their investment.

The cease and desist order limits certain activities that we may perform and increases our compliance costs.

Royal Bank is regulated by the FDIC and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Department of Banking. As more fully described in Note 20 “Subsequent Events”, on July 19, 2009, Royal Bank agreed to enter into a Stipulation and Consent to the Issuance of an Order to Cease and Desist (the “Orders”) with each of the FDIC and the Department of Banking. The Orders include a number of provisions relating to the operation of the business of Royal Bank, including provisions requiring Royal Bank to reduce its concentration in commercial real estate loans and reliance on wholesale funding sources. The provisions of the Orders, including any actions that the FDIC or Department of Banking may take to enforce them, as well as the additional compliance costs resulting from the Orders, may adversely affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations.
