Item 1. Business.
History and Business
Orrstown Financial Services, Inc. (OFS) is a bank holding
company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as
amended. Orrstown Financial Services, Inc. was organized on November
17, 1987, under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for the
purpose of acquiring Orrstown Bank ("Orrstown"), Shippensburg,
Pennsylvania, and such other banks and bank related activities as are
permitted by law and desirable. On March 8, 1988, Orrstown Financial
Services, Inc. acquired 100% ownership of Orrstown, issuing 131,455
shares of Orrstown Financial Services, Inc.'s common stock to the
former Orrstown shareholders.
Orrstown Financial Services, Inc.'s primary activity
consists of owning and supervising its subsidiary, Orrstown Bank, which
is engaged in providing banking and bank related services in South
Central Pennsylvania, principally Franklin and Cumberland Counties,
where its seven branches are located in Shippensburg (2), Carlisle (2),
Spring Run, Orrstown, and Chambersburg, Pennsylvania. The day-to-day
management of Orrstown Bank is conducted by the subsidiary's officers.
Orrstown Financial Services, Inc. derives a majority of its current
income from Orrstown.
Orrstown Financial Services, Inc. has no employees other
than its six officers who are also employees of Orrstown, its
subsidiary. On December 31, 1998, Orrstown had 76 full-time and 36
part-time employees.
Business of Orrstown
Orrstown was organized as a state-chartered bank
in 1987 as part of an agreement and plan of merger between Orrstown
Financial Services, Inc. and Orrstown Bank, the predecessor of
Orrstown, under which Orrstown became a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Orrstown Financial Services, Inc. As indicated, Orrstown is the
successor to Orrstown Bank which was originally organized in 1919.
- -2-

Orrstown is engaged in commercial banking and trust
business as authorized by the Pennsylvania Banking Code of 1965. This
involves accepting demand, time and savings deposits and granting
loans. The Bank grants agribusiness, commercial and residential loans
to customers in South Central Pennsylvania, principally Franklin and
Cumberland Counties. The concentrations of credit by type of loan are
set forth on the face of the balance sheet (page 5 of the annual report
to shareholders). The Bank maintains a diversified loan portfolio and
evaluates each customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis.
The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank upon
the extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation of
the customer and collateral standards established in the Bank's lending
policies and procedures.
All secured loans are supported with appraisals of
collateral. Business equipment and machinery, inventories, accounts
receivable, and farm equipment are considered appropriate security,
provided they meet acceptable standards for liquidity and
marketability.
Loans secured by equipment and/or other nonreal estate
collateral normally do not exceed 70% of appraised value or cost,
whichever is lower. Loans secured by real estate do not exceed 80% of
the appraised value of the property which is the maximum loan to
collateral value established in the Bank's lending policy. Loan to
collateral values are monitored as part of the loan review, and
appraisals are updated as deemed appropriate in the circumstances.
Administration and supervision over the lending process is
provided by the Bank's Credit Administration Department via loan
reviews. The loan review process is continuous, commencing with the
approval of a loan. Each new loan is reviewed by the Credit
Administration Department for compliance with banking regulations and
lending policy requirements for documentation, collateral standards,
and approvals.
The Credit Administration Department continues to monitor
and evaluate loan customers utilizing risk-rating criteria established
in the lending policy in order to spot deteriorating trends and detect
conditions which might indicate potential problem loans.






- -3-

Reports of the results of the loan reviews are submitted
quarterly to the Directors' Credit Administration Committee for
approval and provide the basis for evaluating the adequacy of the
allowance for loan losses.
Through its trust department, Orrstown renders services as
trustee, executor, administrator, guardian, managing agent, custodian,
investment advisor and other fiduciary activities authorized by law.
As of December 31, 1998, Orrstown had total assets of
approximately $ 236 million, total shareholders' equity of
approximately $ 21 million and total deposits of approximately $ 184
million.
Regulation and Supervision
Orrstown Financial Services (OFS) is a bank holding company
within the meaning of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 (BHC Act),
and is registered as such with the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System (FRB). OFS is subject to examination by the FRB and is
restricted in its acquisitions, certain of which are prohibited and
certain of which are subject to approval by the FRB.
Under the BHC Act, a bank holding company is, with limited
exceptions, prohibited from (i) acquiring direct or indirect ownership
or control of more than 5% of the voting shares of any company which is
not a bank or (ii) engaging in any activity other than managing or
controlling banks. With the prior approval of the FRB, however, a bank
holding company may own shares of a company engaged in activities which
the FRB determines to be so closely related to banking or managing or
controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto. In addition,
federal law imposes certain restrictions on transactions between OFS
and its subsidiary, Orrstown Bank. As an affiliate of Orrstown Bank
OFS is subject, with certain exceptions, to provisions of federal law
imposing limitations on, and requiring collateral for, extensions of
credit by Orrstown Bank to its affiliates.


- -4-

The operations of Orrstown are subject to federal and state
statutes applicable to banks chartered under the banking laws of the
United States, and to banks whose deposits are insured by the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation. Bank operations are also subject to
regulations of the Pennsylvania Department of Banking, the Federal
Reserve Board and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
The primary supervisory authority of Orrstown is the
Pennsylvania Department of Banking, who regularly examines such areas
as reserves, loans, investments, management practices and other aspects
of bank operations. These examinations are designed primarily for the
protection of the Bank depositors.
Federal and state banking laws and regulations govern,
among other things, the scope of a bank's business, the investments a
bank may make, the reserves against deposits a bank must maintain, the
loans a bank makes and collateral it takes, the maximum interest rates
a bank may pay on deposits, the activities of a bank with respect to
mergers and consolidations, and the establishment of branches, and
management practices and other aspects of banking operations. See Note
14 of the Notes to Financial Statements for a discussion of the
limitations on the availability of Orrstown Financial Services'
subsidiary's undistributed earnings for the payment of dividends due to
such regulation and other reasons.
The Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement
Act of 1989 (FIRREA) provides that a financial institution insured by
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) sharing common
ownership with a failed institution can be required to indemnify the
FDIC for its losses resulting from the insolvency of the failed
institution, even if such indemnification causes the affiliated
institution also to become insolvent. OFS currently has only one
subsidiary and as a result has not been significantly affected by the
aforementioned provisions of FIRREA.

- -5-

Regulatory authorities have issued guidelines that establish
risk-based capital and leverage standards. These capital requirements
of bank regulators, are discussed on page 21 of the annual report to
shareholders under "Capital Adequacy and Regulatory Matters". Failure
to meet applicable capital guidelines could subject a bank to a
variety of enforcement remedies available to the regulatory
authorities. Depending upon circumstances, the regulatory agencies may
require an institution to develop a "capital plan" to increase its
capital to levels established by the agency.
In 1991, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
Improvement Act of 1991 ("FDICIA") was enacted. FDICIA contains
provisions limiting activities and business methods of depository
institutions. FDICIA requires the primary federal banking regulators
to promulgate regulations setting forth standards relating to, among
other things, internal controls and audit systems; credit underwriting
and loan documentation; interest rate exposure and other off-balance
sheet assets and liabilities; and compensation of directors and
officers. FDICIA provides for expanded regulation of depository
institutions and their affiliates, including parent holding companies,
by such institutions' primary federal banking regulator. Each primary
federal banking regulator is required to specify, by regulation,
capital standards for measuring the capital adequacy of the depository
institutions it supervises and, depending upon the extent to which a
depository institution does not meet such capital adequacy measures,








- -6-

the primary federal banking regulator may prohibit such institution
from paying dividends or may require such institution to take other
steps to become adequately capitalized.
The earnings of Orrstown Bank, and therefore the earnings
of Orrstown Financial Services, are affected by general economic
conditions, management policies, and the legislative and governmental
actions of various regulatory authorities including the FRB, the FDIC
and the Pennsylvania Department of Banking. In addition, there are
numerous governmental requirements and regulations that affect the
activities of Orrstown Financial Services.
Competition
Orrstown's principal market area consists of Franklin
County and Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. It services a substantial
number of depositors in this market area, with the greatest
concentration within a radius of Shippensburg and Carlisle,
Pennsylvania.
Orrstown, like other depository institutions, has been
subjected to competition from less heavily regulated entities such as
brokerage firms, money market funds, consumer finance and credit card
companies and other commercial banks, many of which are larger than
Orrstown Bank. Orrstown Bank is generally competitive with all
competing financial institutions in its service area with respect to
interest rates paid on time and savings deposits, service charges on
deposit accounts and interest rates charged on loans.
Item 2. Properties.
Orrstown Bank owns buildings in Orrstown, Pennsylvania,
Shippensburg, Pennsylvania (3), Carlisle, Pennsylvania, Spring Run,
Pennsylvania and Chambersburg, Pennsylvania. Offices of the bank are
located in each of these buildings. One of the offices located in
Shippensburg is an "Operations Center" which does not operate as a
branch, but rather as an accounting office. The bank also

- -7-

owns properties adjacent to the Orrstown and downtown Shippensburg
offices which it intends to hold for future expansion purposes.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings.
Orrstown Financial Services, Inc. is an occasional party to
legal actions arising in the ordinary course of its business. In the
opinion of Orrstown Financial Services, Inc.'s management, Orrstown
Financial Services, Inc. has adequate legal defenses and/or insurance
coverage respecting any and each of these actions and does not believe
that they will materially affect Orrstown Financial Services, Inc.'s
operations or financial position.

Exhibit 3(i)

COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA
DEPARTMENT OF STATE
CORPORATION BUREAU


The undersigned desiring to incorporate a business
corporation under the provisions of the Business
Corporation Law of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (Act of
May 5, 1933, P.L. 364, as amended) does hereby certify:

ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION:

1. The name of the Corporation is:

Orrstown Financial Services, Inc.

2. The location and post office address of its
initial registered office in the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania is:

3580 Orrstown Road
Orrstown, Franklin County, Pennsylvania 17244

3. The purpose or purposes for which the
Corporation is incorporated are:

To have unlimited power to engage in and do any
lawful acts concerning any or all lawful business for which
corporations may be incorporated under the provisions of
the Business Corporation Law of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania. The Corporation is incorporated under the
provisions of the Business Corporation Law of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (Act of May 5, 1933, P.L. 364,
as amended).

4. The term for which the Corporation is to exist is
perpetual.

5. The shareholders of the Corporation shall not
have the right to cumulate their shares in voting for the
election of directors.

6. (a) The aggregate number of shares which the
Corporation shall have authority to issue is:

(i) 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock with no par
value; and (*)

(ii) 500,000 shares of Preferred Stock with a par
value of $1.25 per share.


(b) The relative rights, preferences and
designations of the Preferred stock shall be as follows:

The Board of Directors may issue, in one or more
series, the shares of Preferred Stock, with full,
limited, multiple, fractional or no voting
rights, and with such designations, preferences,
qualifications, privileges, limitations,
restrictions, options, conversion rights or other
special or relative rights as shall be fixed from
time to time by resolution of the Board of
Directors.

7. A. The Board of Directors may, if it deems
advisable, recommend or oppose a tender or other offer for
the Corporation's securities, whether the offer is in cash
or in the securities of a corporation or otherwise. When
considering whether to recommend or oppose an offer, the
Board of Directors may, but is not legally obligated to,
consider any pertinent issue. By way of illustration, but
not limitation, the Board of Directors may, but shall not
be legally obligated to, consider any or all of the
following:

(1) whether the offer price is acceptable
based on the historical and present operating results or
financial condition of the Corporation;

(2) whether a more favorable price could be
obtained for the Corporation's securities in the future;

(3) the impact which an acquisition of the
Corporation would have on the employees, depositors and
customers of the Corporation and its subsidiaries and the
community which they serve;

(4) the reputation and business practices
of the offeror and its management and affiliates as they
would affect the employees, depositors and customers of the
Corporation and its subsidiaries and the future value of
the Corporation's stock;

(5) the value of the securities (if any)
which the offeror is offering in exchange for the
Corporation's securities, based on an analysis of the worth
of the Corporation as compared to the corporation or other
entity whose securities are being offered;

(6) any antitrust or other legal and
regulatory issues that are raised by the offer.



- -2-

(B) If the Board of Directors determines that an
offer should be opposed, it may take any lawful action for
that purpose, including, but not limited to, any, or all of
the following: advising shareholders not to accept the
offer; litigation against the offeror; filing complaints
with all governmental and regulatory authorities; acquiring
the Corporation's securities; selling or otherwise issuing
authorized but unissued securities or treasury stock or
granting options, warrants or rights with respect thereto;
making defensive acquisitions; and obtaining a more
favorable offer from another individual or entity.

8. Any business combination (including a plan of
merger or consolidation) or sale or transfer of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Corporation with or
to a shareholder of the Corporation who, directly or
indirectly, has voting control over 10% or more of any
class of shares of the Corporation or with or to an entity
which, directly or indirectly, is controlled by such a
shareholder, shall require the approval by the Board of
Directors of the Corporation and approval by shareholders
entitled to cast at least three-fourths of the votes which
all shareholders are entitled to cast thereon; provided,
however, if such business combination or sale or transfer
is approved by at least three-fourths of the Directors of
the Corporation, then approval by shareholders entitled to
cast a majority of the votes which all shareholders are
entitled to cast shall be sufficient.

9. If any person (including any individual,
corporation, partnership or other entity) directly or
indirectly acquires shares of the Corporation entitling
the owner to cast at least 10% of the votes which all
shareholders would be entitled to cast in the election of
Directors of the Corporation, then any business
combination (including a plan of merger or consolidation)
with such person or an entity directly or indirectly
controlled by such person shall require such person to
offer to pay the other shareholders of the Corporation at
least the highest price paid directly or indirectly by
such person for any of the shares then directly or
indirectly owned by such person. For purposes of this
provision "price" shall mean the sum of any cash and the
fair value of any other consideration paid for any of such
shares.

10. These Articles of Incorporation may be
amended by the affirmative vote of shareholders entitled
to cast at least three-fourths of the votes which all
shareholders are entitled to cast unless approved by
three-fourths of the Directors of the Corporation, in
which case approval by shareholders entitled to cast a
majority of the votes which all shareholders are entitled
to cast shall be sufficient.

11. Section 910 of the Pennsylvania Business
Corporation Law shall not be applicable to the Corporation.

incorporator and the number and class of shares subscribed
