THIS CHANGE IN CONTROL AGREEMENT is made to be effective as of March 1, 2009, by and among ORRSTOWN FINANCIAL SERVICES, INC. , a Pennsylvania business corporation (the “Corporation”), ORRSTOWN BANK , a Pennsylvania state charted bank having its principal place of business at 77 East King Street, Shippensburg, Pennsylvania 17257 (the “Bank”), and THOMAS RODNEY QUINN, JR. an individual residing at 4400 Deerwood Court, Bonita Springs, FL 34134 (the “Executive”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS , Executive is now serving as an executive of the Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation; and

WHEREAS , the Corporation and the Bank consider the continued services of Executive to be in the best interests of the Corporation and the Bank; and

WHEREAS , the Corporation, the Bank and Executive desire to enter into this Agreement whereby the Corporation agrees to make certain payments to Executive upon termination under specific conditions in order to induce Executive to continue in employment.

NOW , THEREFORE , in consideration of the continued employment of Executive and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, intending to be legally bound hereby, Executive and the Corporation and the Bank agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

TERMINATION PURSUANT TO A CHANGE IN CONTROL

1.1 Definition: Termination Pursuant to a Change in Control . Any of the following events occurring during the period commencing with the date of a “Change in Control” (as defined in ARTICLE II hereof) and ending on the second anniversary of the date of the Change in Control, shall constitute a “Termination Pursuant to a Change in Control”:

(A) Executive’s employment is terminated by the Bank or an acquirer or successor of the Bank without “Cause” (as defined in the Executive Employment Agreement of even date herewith by and among the Corporation, the Bank and the Executive (the “Employment Agreement”)); or

(B) Executive terminates Executive’s employment for Good Reason (as defined in the Employment Agreement).

1.2 Compensation Upon Termination Pursuant to a Change in Control . If Executive’s employment is terminated and such termination is a Termination Pursuant to a Change in Control (as defined in Section 1.1), the Corporation (or any acquirer or successor thereto) shall provide (or cause to be provided) the following to Executive:

(A) The Bank shall pay Executive within twenty (20) days following the termination of Executive’s employment, a lump sum payment in an amount equal to and no greater than two and 99/100 (2.99) times the sum of the Executive’s (i) annualized base salary, and (ii) cash bonus and other annual incentive cash compensation, in each case with respect to the calendar year immediately preceding the calendar year in which the Termination Pursuant to a Change in Control occurs.

(B) Executive shall be provided, for a period of three (3) years, commencing as of the termination of Executive’s employment, with life, disability, medical/health insurance and other health and welfare benefits in effect with respect to Executive immediately prior to the Termination Pursuant to a Change in Control, or, if the Bank is not permitted by insurance carriers to provide such benefits because Executive is no longer an employee, a dollar amount equal to the cost to


Executive to obtain such benefits; provided that Executive shall continue to be responsible for the cost of such insurance coverages following his Termination Pursuant to a Change in Control to the same extent as other similarly situated active employees of the Bank as of the Termination Pursuant to a Change in Control or, if there are no similarly situated employees, then to the same extent, on a percentage of total cost basis, that Executive was responsible for the cost of available insurance coverages prior to the Termination Pursuant to a Change in Control. With respect to health insurance coverage, Executive’s spouse and/or eligible dependents, if covered under any employer sponsored accident and health insurance plan in effect for Executive as of Executive’s Termination Pursuant to a Change in Control, shall also be provided with health insurance coverage for the three (3) year term set forth above and under the same cost sharing method as described above.

(C) If the total of all payments and benefits to be made and provided under the terms of this Agreement, together with any other payments and benefits which the Executive has the right to receive from the Corporation and the Bank upon a Termination Pursuant to a Change in Control, would result in the imposition of an excise tax under Section 4999 (or any successor provision thereto) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Code”), Executive shall be entitled to an additional “excise tax” adjustment payment in an amount such that, after the payment of all federal and state income and excise taxes, Executive will be in the same after-tax position as if no excise tax had been imposed. Any payment or benefit which is required to be included under Sections 280G or 4999 (or any successor provisions thereto) of the Code for purposes of determining whether a deduction is to be disallowed or an excise tax is payable shall be deemed a payment or benefit “made or provided to Executive” or a payment or benefit “which Executive has a right to receive” for purposes of this provision. The Corporation (or its successor) shall be responsible for the costs of calculation of the deductibility of payments and benefits and the amount of the excise tax due, if any, by the Corporation’s independent certified accountant and tax counsel and shall notify Executive of the amount of excise tax due, if any, prior to the time such excise tax is due. If at any time it is determined that the additional “excise tax” adjustment payment previously made to Executive was insufficient to cover the effect of the excise tax, the gross-up payment pursuant to this provision shall be increased to make Executive whole, including an amount to cover the payment of any penalties resulting from any incorrect or late payment of the excise tax resulting from the prior calculation. All amounts required to be paid pursuant to this paragraph (C) shall be paid at the time any withholding may be required (or, if earlier, the time Executive shall be required to pay such amounts) under applicable law, and any additional amounts to which Executive may be entitled shall be paid or reimbursed no later than fifteen (15) days following confirmation of such amount by the Corporation’s independent certified accountant provided, however, that any payments to be made under this paragraph (C) shall in all events be made no later than the end of Executive’s taxable year next following the taxable year in which the Executive remits such excise tax payments. The parties recognize that the actual implementation of the provisions of this paragraph (C) are complex and agree to deal with each other in good faith to resolve any questions or disagreements arising hereunder.

1.3 Other Benefits . Except as otherwise provided in this Section 1.3, the payments provided by this ARTICLE I shall not affect Executive’s rights to receive any payments or benefits to which Executive may be or become entitled under any other existing or future agreement or arrangement of the Corporation, the Bank or any successor thereto with the Executive, or under any existing or future benefit plan or arrangement of the Corporation, the Bank or any successor in which Executive is or becomes a participant, or under which Executive has or obtains rights, including without limitation, any qualified or nonqualified deferred compensation or retirement plans or programs or any outstanding stock options or similar agreements. Any such rights of Executive shall be determined in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable agreement, arrangement or plan and applicable law, provided , however , that Executive shall not be entitled to any severance payments pursuant to the Employment Agreement or otherwise in addition to those provided hereunder.

1.4 Withholding for Taxes . All payments required to be made under this Agreement will be subject to withholding of such amounts relating to tax and/or other payroll deductions as may be required by law.
