CURRENT REPORT ON FORM 8-K
 
 
Item 8.01  Other Events.
 
Harleysville National Corporation (the “Corporation”), as a result of a recent internal audit, has uncovered a defalcation in the amount of approximately $578,000. This amount was determined based on the results of our preliminary investigation. The Corporation will endeavor to complete its investigation as soon as possible. The Corporation determined the defalcation was the result of unauthorized activities of an employee (non-officer) of the Corporation’s wholly owned subsidiary, Harleysville National Bank and Trust Company, who was immediately terminated. Noncompliance with process controls and procedures by the staff of a branch banking office facilitated the defalcation to go undetected. The Corporation has conducted a review of its process controls and procedures and has determined that this event does not constitute a material breach of its internal controls. However, the Corporation continues to reinforce controls and procedures with its personnel. The appropriate regulatory and governmental authorities were notified in a timely manner.

The Corporation maintains insurance coverage for this type of risk with a deductible of $100,000. Management expects that this claim will constitute a covered loss and as such the total estimated loss should not exceed $100,000 pre-tax or $65,000 net of income taxes.
