SECTION 2.03.  Advances.

(b)   By requesting an Advance, Borrower makes a warranty that Borrower is in compliance with all Loan Documents.  When making a request for an Advance, Borrower must specify the requested amount and the date.  All Advances will be made in United States dollars.  Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Lender for the Lender’s reliance on any request for Advances that the Lender reasonably believes to be genuine.  To the extent permitted by law, Borrower will indemnify the Lender and hold the Lender harmless when the person making any request represents that Borrower authorized the person to request an Advance even when the person is unauthorized or the person’s signature is not genuine.  The Borrower may request Advances by the following methods: (1) in person; (2) by phone; or (3) by mail.

(4)   Credit Limit.  Borrower understands that the Lender will not ordinarily grant a request for an Advance that would cause the unpaid principal of the Loan to be greater than the Principal Limit.  The Lender may, at its option, grant such a request without obligating the Lender to do so in the future.  The Borrower will pay any over Advances in addition to the regularly scheduled payments.  The Borrower will repay any over Advance by repaying the Lender in full within 10 days after the overdraft occurs.

(5)   Records.  The Lender’s records will be conclusive evidence as to the amount of Advances, the Note’s unpaid principal balances and the accrued interest.

(d)   All of the following conditions shall be satisfied before the Lender will be required to make any Advances under this Agreement.

(1)   No Default.  There has not been a default under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents nor would a default result from making the Loan or any Advance.

(3)   Inspections.  The Lender has made all inspections it considers necessary and is satisfied with this inspection.

(4)   Conditions and Covenants.  Borrower will have performed and complied with all conditions required for an Advance and all covenants in this Agreement and any other Loan Documents.

(7)   Bankruptcy Proceedings.  No proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy Code has been commenced by or against the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s affiliates.

(8)   Pledge Agreement.  Borrower shall have executed and delivered the Pledge Agreement attached hereto and marked “Exhibit A” providing for the Borrower’s pledge to the Lender of a second lien security interest in one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding shares of First National common stock in order to secure the Loan and the Borrower’s Obligations hereunder (the “Pledge Agreement”).

(9)   Non-compliance with OCC Letter.  As a result of the attempt to sell the AHB Division, actual sale thereof, or the effects on First National of such sale, First National’s regulatory capital ratios, as reported in its Regulatory Reports, shall have fallen below the minimum regulatory capital requirements established by the OCC as set forth in the OCC Letter, and the OCC shall not have indicated, orally or in writing, that it will not take immediate action to enforce such minimum levels prior to consummation of the Merger.

(10) Officer’s Certificate.  The representations and warranties of the Borrower contained in Article III shall be true on and as of the date of the requested Advance with the same effect as though such representations and warranties had been made on and as of such date, and no event shall have occurred prior to such date which constitutes an Event of Default or which, with notice or the lapse of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, and all of the conditions to an Advance hereunder shall have been satisfied, and the Borrower shall have delivered to the Lender on the date of the requested Advance a certificate, dated such date and signed by the President or Chief Financial Officer of the Borrower, to such effect, together with any other evidence of the foregoing reasonably requested by Lender.

SECTION 2.04. Optional Prepayments.  The Borrower may, at its option, prepay the Loan, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time.

6

and without any action by the Lender become due and payable in full. Borrower agrees that if it undertakes a public offering of its securities during the term of this Loan Agreement, it shall use commercially reasonable efforts to raise net proceeds in the offering sufficient, together with any other cash or cash equivalents on hand, to satisfy both the additional capital requirements imposed upon First National pursuant to the OCC Letter and the repayment of the outstanding amounts under the Note, plus any late charges, prepayment penalties or other fees owing hereunder or thereunder pursuant to this Section 2.04.

SECTION 2.06. General Provisions as to Loan Payments and Computation of Interest. The Borrower shall make each payment of principal of, and interest on, the Loan in lawful money of the United States of America and in federal or other funds immediately available to the Lender at its address referred to in Section 8.03. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Lender to debit any of its accounts at the Lender for the payment of all amounts payable under the Loan Documents on the due date for such payments. Whenever any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Loan shall be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest shall continue to accrue thereon. If the date for any payment of principal of the Loan is extended by operation of law or otherwise, interest thereon shall be payable for such extended time.  Interest on the Loan shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, and paid for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

STOCK PLEDGE AGREEMENT

THIS STOCK PLEDGE AGREEMENT (“Agreement” or “Pledge”) is made and entered into this            day of March, 2010, by and between FIRST CHESTER COUNTY CORPORATION, a Pennsylvania business corporation having its principal office at 9 North High Street, West Chester, Pennsylvania 19380 (the “Pledgor”), and TOWER BANCORP, INC., a Pennsylvania business corporation having an office at 112 Market Street, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania (the “Pledgee”).

Background:

A.                                   Pursuant to that certain Loan Agreement of even date herewith between Pledgor, as borrower, and Pledgee, as lender, Pledgee has extended to Pledgor a non-revolving line of credit not to exceed the principal sum of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00) (the “Loan”).  The Loan is evidenced by a Promissory Note of even date herewith, as may be amended from time to time, in the face amount of Four Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00) (the “Note”).

B.                                     To induce Pledgee to provide the Loan to Pledgor, and as security for the payment of all of Pledgor’s obligations in connection with and/or under the Loan and the Note, as may be amended, from time to time, and any and all other contracts, agreements and obligations of Pledgor to Pledgee (collectively, the “Obligations”), Pledgor desires to pledge to Pledgee 30,000 shares of common stock (“Stock”) of First National Bank of Chester County (the “Bank”).

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the matters recited above, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, Pledgor agrees as follows:

1.                                       Security Interest.  Pledgor hereby pledges and grants to Pledgee a security interest in and a second lien on all of the shares of Stock in the Bank now owned or hereafter acquired by Pledgor, and all cash, securities and property paid and/or distributed to or for the benefit of Pledgor or its assignee as a consequence of Pledgor’s ownership of the Stock, or any portion thereof (collectively, the “Collateral”). Pledgor hereby represents and warrants to Pledgee that, on the date of this Agreement, Pledgor owns 30,000 shares of Stock in the Bank, which represents all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Bank, free and clear of any liens, claims and encumbrances, except for a first lien security interest held by Graystone Tower Bank pursuant to that certain stock pledge agreement dated November 20, 2009 (the “Graystone Pledge Agreement”).

2.                                       Obligations Secured.  The Collateral and the continuing security interest granted herein shall secure the satisfaction in full of all Obligations and all amounts payable under the Note and Loan Agreement.

3.                                       Delivery of Stock and Assignments.  All original certificates and instruments representing or evidencing 30,000 shares of Stock owned in the name of Pledgor have been delivered to Graystone Tower Bank pursuant to the Graystone Pledge Agreement, shall continue to be held by Graystone Tower Bank on behalf of Pledgee pursuant hereto, and are in suitable

1

form for transfer by delivery.  Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Pledgor shall deliver to Pledgee duly executed instruments of transfer or assignments in blank, in such form as Pledgee may request.

4.                                       Covenants.  Pledgor covenants and agrees that until all Obligations are satisfied and the amounts due and owing under the Note have been paid in full, Pledgor shall:

4.1                                 Sale of Collateral.  Not sell, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of the Collateral, or any portion thereof, without the prior written consent of Pledgee.

4.2                                 Creation of Liens.  Not create, incur or permit to exist any pledge, encumbrance, trust, lien, security interest or charge of any kind on the Collateral, or any portion thereof, except for that certain first lien on the Collateral granted to Graystone Tower Bank pursuant to the Graystone Pledge Agreement.

4.3                                 Additional Documents and Future Actions.  Pledgor will take such actions and provide Pledgee, from time to time, with such agreements, financing statements and additional instruments, documents or information as Pledgee may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to perfect, protect and maintain its security interests in the Collateral or any portion thereof, to permit Pledgee to protect its interest in the Collateral or any portion thereof, and/or to carry out the terms hereof.  Pledgor irrevocably authorizes the filing of carbon, photographic or other copies of this Pledge, or of a financing statement, as a financing statement, and agrees that such filing shall be sufficient as a financing statement.

4.4                                 Requested Information.   Pledgor shall deliver to Pledgee such data and information in respect of the financial condition and affairs of Pledgor and the value of the Collateral as Pledgee may request, from time to time.

5.                                       Default.  The occurrence of an Event of Default as defined under the Note or Loan Agreement and/or the failure of Pledgor to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall constitute a default (“Default”) hereunder.

6.                                       Voting, Distribution and Other Rights of Pledgor and Pledgee.

6.1                                 Prior to a Default.  So long as no Default shall have occurred and is continuing, Pledgor shall be entitled to continue to exercise any and all voting and other rights arising under the Collateral and to receive and retain any and all dividends, distributions and interest, declared, distributed or paid, with respect to the Collateral, or any portion thereof.

6.2                                 After a Default.  Upon a Default and at all times thereafter, and subject to any superior rights of Graystone Tower Bank in the Collateral:

(a)                                  Voting and Dividends.  Pledgee shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights arising under the Collateral and to receive and retain any and all dividends, distributions and interest, declared, distributed or paid, with respect to the Collateral, or any portion thereof.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Pledgee shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral.

(c)                                  Application of Proceeds.  Any cash held by Pledgee as Collateral and all cash proceeds received by Pledgee in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon the Collateral, or any portion thereof, may be held by Pledgee as Collateral for, and/or then or at any time after a Default applied in whole or in part by Pledgee against all or any Obligations and sums owing by Pledgor under the Note.  Any surplus of such cash or cash proceeds held by Pledgee and remaining after payment in full of the sums owing under the Note shall be returned to Pledgor.

7.                                       Reasonable Care.  Pledgee shall exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession.

8.                                       Return of Collateral.  Upon the satisfaction by the Pledgor of all of its Obligations under the Note and the termination or full performance of any agreement, contract or other arrangement as may exist between Pledgor and Pledgee for the transfer or sale of any of the shares of Stock to Pledgee, this Agreement and the security interest given in the Collateral shall be terminated.
