Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus

MERGER PROPOSED—YOUR VOTE IS VERY IMPORTANT

Dear Shareholder:

On March 29, 2017, Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc., or Mid Penn, Mid Penn Bank, and The Scottdale Bank & Trust Company, or Scottdale, entered into a merger agreement under which Scottdale will merge with and into Mid Penn Bank, with Mid Penn Bank remaining as the surviving entity. Before we complete the merger, the shareholders of Mid Penn and Scottdale must approve and adopt the merger agreement.

Mid Penn shareholders will vote to adopt the merger agreement and on the other matters described below at a special meeting of shareholders to be held at [     ], local time, on [●], 2017 at [     ]. Scottdale shareholders will vote to adopt the merger agreement and on the other matters described below at a special meeting of shareholders to be held at [     ], local time, on [●], 2017 at [     ].

If the merger is completed, Scottdale shareholders will have the right to receive for each share of Scottdale common stock they own, at their election, (i) $1,166 in cash or (ii) a ratio of a share (the “Exchange Ratio”) of Mid Penn common stock determined by dividing (y) $1,166 by (z) the 10 trading day per share volume-weighted average price of the Mid Penn common stock on the date that is five business days prior to the closing of the merger (the “Average Price”), provided that in no event may the exchange ratio be less than 38.88 or greater than 44.86, respectively. Scottdale shareholders may also elect to receive a combination of cash and Mid Penn common stock. All such elections are subject to adjustment pursuant to the allocation and proration provisions described in this joint proxy statement/prospectus whereby at least 90% of the shares of Scottdale common stock outstanding as of the effective time of the merger (approximately 45,647 shares) will be exchanged for shares of Mid Penn common stock and up to 10% of the outstanding shares (approximately 5,071 shares) of Scottdale common stock will be exchanged for cash (however, the percentage could be adjusted down to 85% in the event that shareholders perfecting their dissenters’ rights reaches 15% of the outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock), as further described in the attached joint proxy statement/prospectus. Cash will be paid in lieu of any fractional shares. If the merger is completed Mid Penn will issue between 1,774,724 and 2,275,209 shares of common stock and pay up to approximately $5,913,719 in cash in exchange for the outstanding shares of common stock of Scottdale upon consummation of the merger, or an aggregate of approximately $59,137,188 in cash and stock.

Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, at least 90% of the total number of outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock will be converted into Mid Penn common stock, and the remaining outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock will be converted into cash. As a result, if more Scottdale shareholders make valid elections to receive either Mid Penn common stock or cash than is available as merger consideration under the merger agreement, those Scottdale shareholders electing the over-subscribed form of consideration may have the over-subscribed consideration proportionately reduced and substituted with consideration in the other form. The material federal income tax consequences of the merger to Scottdale shareholders will depend on whether cash, Mid Penn common stock, or a combination of cash and Mid Penn common stock is received in exchange for shares of Scottdale common stock and are discussed in “Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger,” beginning on page [●].

The common stock of Mid Penn trades on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “MPB” and the common stock of Scottdale trades on the OTC Pink Markets under the symbol “SDLJ.” On March 28, 2017, which was the last trading date preceding the public announcement of the proposed merger, the closing price of Mid Penn common stock was $27.25 per share. Based upon this price equaling the Average Price with respect to the stock consideration, upon completion of the merger, the exchange ratio would be 42.79. On [●], 2017, the most recent practicable trading day prior to the printing of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, the closing price of Mid Penn common stock was $[         ] per share, which would result in an exchange ratio of [        ]. The market price of both Mid Penn common stock and Scottdale common stock will fluctuate before the completion of the merger; therefore, you are urged to obtain current market quotations for Mid Penn common stock and Scottdale common stock.

The Mid Penn board of directors has determined that the merger is advisable and in the best interests of Mid Penn and the Mid Penn board of directors unanimously recommends that the Mid Penn shareholders vote “FOR” the adoption of the merger agreement and “FOR” the approval of the other proposals described in this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

The Scottdale board of directors has determined that the merger is advisable and in the best interests of Scottdale and the Scottdale board of directors unanimously recommends that the Scottdale shareholders vote “FOR” the adoption of the merger agreement and “FOR” the approval of the other proposals described in this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

You should read this entire joint proxy statement/prospectus, including the annexes hereto and the documents incorporated by reference herein, carefully because it contains important information about the merger and the related transactions. In particular, you should read carefully the information under the section entitled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 33. You can also obtain information about Mid Penn from documents that it has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

A: Mid Penn, Mid Penn Bank and Scottdale have entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated March 29, 2017, which is referred to as the “merger agreement.” A copy of the merger agreement is attached as Annex A to, and is incorporated by reference in, this joint proxy statement/prospectus. The merger agreement contains the terms and conditions of the proposed business combination of Mid Penn Bank and Scottdale. Under the merger agreement, Scottdale will merge with and into Mid Penn Bank, with Mid Penn Bank remaining as the surviving entity. We refer to this transaction as the “merger.”

 

Q: Why am I receiving these materials?

 

A: This document constitutes both a joint proxy statement of Mid Penn and Scottdale and a prospectus of Mid Penn. It is a joint proxy statement because the boards of directors of both companies are soliciting proxies from their respective shareholders. It is a prospectus because Mid Penn will issue shares of its common stock in exchange for shares of Scottdale common stock in the merger.

Mid Penn is sending these materials to its shareholders to help them decide how to vote their shares of Mid Penn common stock with respect to the proposed merger and the other matters to be considered at the Mid Penn special meeting described in “The Mid Penn Special Meeting,” beginning on page [●].

Scottdale is sending these materials to its shareholders to help them decide how to vote their shares of Scottdale common stock with respect to the proposed merger and the other matters to be considered at the Scottdale special meeting described in “The Scottdale Special Meeting,” beginning on page [●].

Information about these meetings, the merger and the other business to be considered at the meetings is contained in this joint proxy statement/prospectus. The merger cannot be completed unless shareholders of Mid Penn and Scottdale each approve the merger.

 

Q: Why is Mid Penn proposing the merger?

 

A: The Mid Penn board of directors, in unanimously determining that the merger is in the best interests of Mid Penn and its shareholders, considered a number of key factors that are described under the heading “The Merger—Mid Penn’s Reasons for the Merger,” beginning on page [●].

 

Q: Why is Scottdale proposing the merger?

 

A: The Scottdale board of directors, in unanimously determining that the merger is in the best interests of Scottdale and its shareholders, considered a number of key factors that are described under the heading “The Merger—Scottdale’s Reasons for the Merger,” beginning on page [●].

 

Q: What will Scottdale shareholders receive in the merger, and how will this affect holders of Mid Penn common stock?

 

A:

Upon completion of the merger, Scottdale shareholders will be entitled to elect to receive, for each share of Scottdale common stock, subject to the election and adjustment procedures described in this joint proxy statement/prospectus, (i) $1,166 in cash or (ii) a ratio of a share (the “exchange ratio”) of Mid Penn common

  stock determined by dividing (y) $1,166 by (z) the 10 trading day per share volume-weighted average price for Mid Penn common stock ending on the date that is five business days prior to the closing of the merger. At the closing of the merger, up to 10% of the outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock will be converted into the right to receive cash and the remaining outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock will be converted into the right to receive Mid Penn common stock. Because of the number of shares of Mid Penn common stock being issued in the merger, the percentage ownership interest in Mid Penn represented by the existing shares of Mid Penn common stock will be diluted. Mid Penn shareholders will not receive any merger consideration and will continue to own their existing shares of Mid Penn common stock after the merger.

 

Q: What equity stake will Scottdale shareholders hold in Mid Penn immediately following the merger?

 

A: Following completion of the merger, assuming Scottdale shareholders elect to convert 10% of the total outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock into cash and 90% of the total outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock into Mid Penn stock, current Mid Penn shareholders will own in the aggregate [    ]% of the outstanding shares of Mid Penn common stock and Scottdale shareholders will own approximately [    ]% of the outstanding shares of Mid Penn common stock.

 

Q: What is the value of the per share merger consideration?

 

A: On March 28, 2017, which was the last trading date preceding the public announcement of the proposed merger, the closing price of Mid Penn common stock was $27.25 per share. Based on this price equaling the Average Price with respect to the stock consideration, upon completion of the merger, the exchange ratio would be 42.79. On [●], 2017, the most recent practicable trading day prior to the printing of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, the closing price of Mid Penn common stock was $[        ] per share, which would result in an exchange ratio of [        ]. The market price of both Mid Penn common stock and Scottdale common stock will fluctuate before the completion of the merger, therefore, you are urged to obtain current market quotations for Mid Penn common stock and Scottdale common stock.

 

Q: If I am a Scottdale shareholder, when must I elect the type of merger consideration that I prefer to receive?

 

A: If you are a Scottdale shareholder and wish to elect the type of merger consideration you receive in the merger, you should carefully review and follow the instructions set forth in the election form, which is being separately mailed to Scottdale shareholders concurrently with or immediately following the mailing of this joint proxy statement/prospectus. You will need to sign, date and complete the election form and transmittal materials and return them to the exchange agent, [●], at the address given in the materials. The election deadline will be the date that is no later than five business days prior to the closing date for the merger. Because of the way the election and proration procedures work, even if you submit a properly completed and signed election form, it is still possible that you may not receive exactly the type of merger consideration you have elected. If you do not submit a properly completed and signed election form to the exchange agent by the election deadline, you will have no control over the type of merger consideration you may receive. If you hold shares in “street name,” you will have to follow your broker’s instructions to make an election.

 

Q: If I am a Scottdale shareholder, am I guaranteed to receive the type of merger consideration that I elect?

 

A:

No. If Scottdale shareholders elect to convert more than 10% of the total outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock into cash, then the exchange agent will follow the proration procedures outlined under the heading “The Merger Agreement—Consideration to be Received in the Merger” and “The Merger Agreement—Proration Procedures” to ensure that at least 90% of the aggregate merger consideration is paid in shares of Mid Penn common stock and the remaining consideration is paid in cash. We have been

  advised that Lawrence Keister & Company, which holds 25,804 shares of Scottdale common stock, will elect to convert more than 90% of their holdings of Scottdale common stock into shares of Mid Penn common stock.

 

Q: What happens if I am eligible to receive a fraction of a share of Mid Penn common stock as part of the stock merger consideration?

 

A: If the aggregate number of shares of Mid Penn common stock that you are entitled to receive as part of the stock merger consideration includes a fraction of a share of Mid Penn common stock, you will receive cash in lieu of that fractional share. See the section entitled “The Merger Agreement—Stock Election” beginning on page [●] of this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

 

Q: Who will be the directors and executive officers of the combined company following the merger?

 

A: Following completion of the merger, the then current directors and executive officers of Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank will continue in office. Additionally, Mid Penn will appoint Donald F. Kiefer, President and Chief Executive Officer and a director of Scottdale, or a mutually agreed upon qualified replacement candidate, to the board of directors of Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank effective upon closing of the Merger.

 

Q: When do you expect to complete the merger?

 

A: Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the closing conditions described under the section entitled, “The Merger Agreement—Conditions to Completion of the Merger” beginning on page [●] of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, including receipt of shareholder approvals at the respective special meetings of Mid Penn and Scottdale, and receipt of regulatory approvals, we currently expect to complete the merger by the fourth quarter of 2017. It is possible, however, that factors outside of either company’s control could result in us completing the merger at a later time or not completing it at all.

 

Q: What are the federal income tax consequences of the merger?

 

A: The merger has been structured to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which is referred to as the Internal Revenue Code. It is a condition to the completion of the merger that each of Mid Penn and Scottdale receive a written opinion from their respective legal counsel to the effect that the merger will be treated as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. The federal tax consequences of the merger to shareholders of Scottdale will depend primarily on whether they exchange their Scottdale common stock solely for Mid Penn common stock, solely for cash or for a combination of Mid Penn common stock and cash. Scottdale shareholders who exchange their shares solely for Mid Penn common stock should not recognize gain or loss except with respect to the cash they receive in lieu of a fractional share. Scottdale shareholders who exchange their shares solely for cash should recognize gain or loss on the exchange. Scottdale shareholders who exchange their shares for a combination of Mid Penn common stock and cash should recognize gain, but not any loss, on the exchange. The actual federal income tax consequences to Scottdale shareholders of electing to receive cash, Mid Penn common stock or a combination of cash and stock will not be ascertainable at the time Scottdale shareholders make their election because it will not be known at that time how, or to what extent, the allocation and proration procedures will apply.

This tax treatment may not apply to all Scottdale shareholders. Determining the actual tax consequences of the merger to Scottdale shareholders can be complicated. Scottdale shareholders should consult their own tax advisor for a full understanding of the merger’s tax consequences that are particular to each shareholder. For further discussion of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the merger, see “Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger,” beginning on page [●].

Please consult the voting form sent to you by your bank or broker to determine how to obtain a legal proxy in order to vote in person at the special meeting.

 

Q: Why is my vote important?

 

A: Because the merger cannot be completed without the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Mid Penn special meeting, every shareholder’s vote is important.

 

Q: If my shares of Mid Penn common stock are held in street name by my broker, will my broker automatically vote my shares for me?

 

A: No. Your broker CANNOT vote your shares on any proposal at the Mid Penn special meeting without instructions from you. You should instruct your broker as to how to vote your shares, following the directions your broker provides to you.

 

Q: What if I fail to instruct my broker?

 

A: If you do not provide your broker with instructions, your broker generally will not be permitted to vote your shares on the merger proposal or any other proposal (a so-called “broker non-vote”) at the Mid Penn special meeting. For determining the number of votes cast with respect to the merger proposal, only those votes cast “for” or “against” the proposal are counted. Any broker non-votes submitted by brokers or nominees in connection with the special meeting, will not be counted as votes “for” or “against” for determining the number of votes cast, but will be treated as present for quorum purposes.

 

Q: What constitutes a quorum for the Mid Penn special meeting?

 

A: As of the Mid Penn record date, [        ] shares of Mid Penn common stock were issued and outstanding, each of which will be entitled to one vote at the meeting. Under Mid Penn’s bylaws, the presence, in person or by proxy, of shareholders entitled to cast at least a majority of the votes that all shareholders are entitled to cast constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business at the special meeting. If you vote by proxy, your shares will be included for determining the presence of a quorum. Both abstentions and broker non-votes are also included for determining the presence of a quorum.

 

Q: Assuming the presence of a quorum, what is the vote required to approve the matters to be considered at the Mid Penn special meeting?

 

A: The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast, in person or by proxy, at the Mid Penn special meeting is required to approve the proposals to approve and adopt the merger agreement and to adjourn the Mid Penn special meeting, if necessary, to solicit additional proxies, and any other matter that may properly come before the special meeting. Therefore, abstentions and broker non-votes will not affect the outcome of the proposal to approve the merger or the adjournment proposal.

If you plan to attend the special meeting, you must hold your shares in your own name or have a letter from the record holder of your shares confirming your ownership and you must bring a form of personal photo identification with you in order to be admitted.

Q: Can I change my vote?

 

A: Yes. You may revoke any proxy at any time before it is voted by (1) signing and returning a proxy card with a later date (if you submitted your proxy by Internet or by telephone, you can vote again by Internet or telephone), (2) delivering a written revocation letter to Mid Penn’s Corporate Secretary, or (3) attending the special meeting in person and voting by ballot at the special meeting.

Any shareholder entitled to vote in person at the special meeting may vote in person regardless of whether a proxy has been previously given, and such vote will revoke any previous proxy, but the mere presence of a shareholder at the special meeting will not constitute revocation of a previously given proxy. A shareholder may change his or her vote up and until the time that votes are counted but not thereafter.

 

Q: How will proxies be solicited and who will bear the cost of soliciting votes for the Mid Penn special meeting?

 

A: Mid Penn has engaged [        ] (“[        ]”) to act as the proxy solicitor and to assist in the solicitation of proxies for the Mid Penn special meeting of shareholders.

A:

Q: Why is my vote important?

 

A: Because the merger cannot be completed without the affirmative vote of the holders of two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock, every shareholder’s vote is important.

 

Q: If my shares of Scottdale common stock are held in street name by my broker, will my broker automatically vote my shares for me?

A: The affirmative vote, in person or by proxy, of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock is required to approve the merger agreement. Because the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the holders of outstanding shares of Scottdale is required to approve the merger agreement, abstentions and broker non-votes with respect to the merger agreement will effectively act as “no” votes on such proposal.

 

Q: Do any of Scottdale’s directors or executive officers have interests in the merger that may differ from those of Scottdale shareholders?

 

A: Scottdale’s directors and executive officers have interests in the merger that are different from, or in addition to, those of Scottdale shareholders generally.

A: Yes. Under Pennsylvania law, Scottdale shareholders have the right to dissent from the merger agreement and the merger and to receive a payment in cash for the “fair value” of their shares of Scottdale common stock as determined by an appraisal process.

Scottdale Shareholders Will Receive Shares of Mid Penn Common Stock and/or Cash in the Merger Depending on Their Election and Any Proration (page []).

Upon completion of the merger, each outstanding share of Scottdale common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger, will be converted into the right to receive either (i) $1,166 in cash or (ii) a ratio of a share of Mid Penn common stock determined by dividing (y) $1,166 by (z) the 10 trading day per share volume-weighted average price for Mid Penn common stock ending on the date that is five business days prior to the closing of the merger provided that in no event may the exchange ratio be less than 38.88 or greater than 44.86, respectively, which we refer to as the “stock consideration.” Scottdale shareholders may elect to receive all cash, all stock or cash for some of their shares and stock for the remainder of the shares they own. The total number of shares of Scottdale common stock that will be converted into the cash consideration is up to 10% of the total number of shares of Scottdale stock outstanding immediately prior to the completion of the merger, and the remaining shares of Scottdale common stock will be converted into the stock consideration. As a result, if the aggregate number of shares with respect to which a valid cash election has been made exceeds these limits, shareholders who elected cash consideration that has been oversubscribed will receive a mixture of both cash and stock consideration in accordance with the proration procedures set forth in the merger agreement.

Table of Contents

The value of the cash consideration is fixed at $1,166. On March 28, 2017, which was the last trading date preceding the public announcement of the proposed merger, the closing price of Mid Penn common stock was $27.25 per share. Based upon this price equaling the Average Price with respect to the stock consideration, upon completion of the merger, the exchange ratio would be 42.79. On [●], 2017, the most recent practicable trading day prior to the printing of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, the closing price of Mid Penn common stock was $[ ] per share, which would result in an exchange ratio of [        ]. The market price of both Mid Penn common stock and Scottdale common stock will fluctuate before the completion of the merger; therefore, you are urged to obtain current market quotations for Mid Penn common stock and Scottdale common stock. The value of the stock consideration will fluctuate as the market price of Mid Penn common stock fluctuates before the completion of the merger. The market price of Mid Penn common stock at closing will not be known at the time of the Scottdale special meeting and may be more or less than the current price of Mid Penn common stock or the price of Mid Penn common stock at the time of the Scottdale special meeting or at the time an election is made.

In Order To Make a Valid Election, Scottdale Shareholders Must Properly Complete and Deliver the Election Form that Will Be Sent Separately (page [])

Scottdale shareholders will receive separately an election form, including transmittal materials, with instructions for making cash and stock elections. Scottdale shareholders must properly complete and deliver to the exchange agent an election form along with their stock certificates (or a properly completed notice of guaranteed delivery). The election form will also include delivery instructions with respect to any shares they may hold in book-entry form. Scottdale shareholders should NOT send their stock certificates with their proxy card.

Expected Material United States Federal Income Tax Treatment as a Result of the Merger (page [])

The merger is structured to be treated as a reorganization for United States federal income tax purposes. Each of Mid Penn and Scottdale has conditioned the consummation of the merger on its receipt of a legal opinion that this will be the case. The federal tax consequences of the merger to shareholders of Scottdale will depend primarily on whether they exchange their Scottdale common stock solely for Mid Penn common stock, solely for cash or for a combination of Mid Penn common stock and cash. Scottdale shareholders who exchange their shares solely for Mid Penn common stock should not recognize gain or loss except with respect to the cash they receive instead of a fractional share. Scottdale shareholders who exchange their shares solely for cash should recognize gain or loss on the exchange. Scottdale shareholders who exchange their shares for a combination of Mid Penn common stock and cash should recognize gain, but not any loss, on the exchange. The actual federal income tax consequences to Scottdale shareholders of electing to receive cash, Mid Penn common stock or a combination of cash and stock will not be ascertainable at the time Scottdale shareholders make their election because it will not be known at that time how, or to what extent, the allocation and proration procedures will apply.

This tax treatment may not apply to all Scottdale shareholders. Determining the actual tax consequences of the merger to Scottdale shareholders can be complicated. Scottdale shareholders should consult their own tax advisor for a full understanding of the merger’s tax consequences that are particular to each shareholder.

Exceptions to these conclusions or other considerations may apply, some of which are discussed beginning on page [●]. Determining the actual tax consequences of the merger to a Scottdale shareholder can be complicated. For further information, please refer to “Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger” on page [●]. Scottdale shareholders should also consult their own tax advisors for a full understanding of the federal income tax and other tax consequences of the merger as they apply specifically to them.

Accounting Treatment of the Merger (page [])

The merger will be treated as a “business combination” using the acquisition method of accounting with Mid Penn treated as the acquiror under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or “US GAAP.”

Market Prices and Share Information (page [])

Mid Penn common stock is quoted on The Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “MPB.” Scottdale common stock is quoted on the OTC Pink Market under the symbol “SDLJ.”

The following table shows the closing sale prices of Mid Penn common stock and Scottdale common stock as reported on the respective markets on March 28, 2017, the last trading day before announcement of the merger, and on [●], 2017, the last practicable trading day prior to mailing this joint proxy statement/prospectus. The table also presents the equivalent value of the merger consideration per share of Scottdale common stock on March 28, 2017, and [●], 2017, calculated by multiplying the closing sale prices of Mid Penn common stock on those dates by an exchange ratio of Mid Penn common stock that Scottdale shareholders would receive in the merger for each share of Scottdale common stock if the closing of the merger would occur on such date.

The market price of Mid Penn common stock will fluctuate prior to the merger. You should obtain current stock price quotations for the shares.

Following completion of the merger, assuming Scottdale shareholders elect to convert 10% of the total outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock into cash and 90% of the total outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock into Mid Penn stock, current Mid Penn shareholders will own in the aggregate [    ]% of the outstanding shares of Mid Penn common stock and Scottdale shareholders will own approximately [    ]% of the outstanding shares of Mid Penn common stock. Scottdale shareholders’ ownership in Mid Penn would be proportionately greater if holders of more than 90% of Scottdale’s shares elected shares of Mid Penn common stock.

Opinion of Scottdale’s Financial Advisor (page [])

Scottdale’s Directors and Executive Officers Have Financial Interests in the Merger that May Differ from the Interests of Scottdale Shareholders (page [])

In addition to their interests as Scottdale shareholders, the directors and certain executive officers of Scottdale have interests in the merger that are different from or in addition to interests of other Scottdale shareholders. For purposes of the relevant Scottdale agreements and plans, the completion of the merger will constitute a change in control. These additional interests may create potential conflicts of interest and cause some of these persons to view the proposed transaction differently than a Scottdale shareholder may view it. The financial interests of Scottdale’s directors and executive officers in the merger include the following:

 

    the appointment, effective at the closing of the merger, of Donald F. Kiefer or a mutually agreed upon qualified replacement candidate to the board of directors of Mid Penn Mid Penn Bank and the payment of compensation to such individual in accordance with the policies of Mid Penn, which currently consists of the following payments to each of its non-employee directors: an annual retainer of $18,000, a fee of $500 for each board meeting attended, and between $500 and $300 for each committee meeting attended, depending on the committee;

Scottdale Shareholders’ Dissenters Rights to Appraisal Rights

Shareholders of Scottdale will have appraisal or dissenters’ rights in connection with the merger. See “Scottdale Shareholders Have Dissenters’ Rights in the Merger” beginning on page [●].

The Rights of Scottdale Shareholders Will Change After the Merger (page [])

The rights of Scottdale shareholders will change as a result of the merger due to differences in Mid Penn’s and Scottdale’s governing documents. The rights of Scottdale’s shareholders are governed by Scottdale’s articles of incorporation and bylaws. Upon completion of the merger, Scottdale shareholders will be governed under Pennsylvania law and Mid Penn’s articles of incorporation and bylaws. A description of shareholder rights under each of the Mid Penn and Scottdale governing documents, and the material differences between them, is included in the section entitled “Comparison of Shareholders’ Rights” found on page [●].

Conditions That Must Be Satisfied or Waived for the Merger to Occur (page [])

Currently, we expect to complete the merger by the fourth quarter of 2017. In addition to the approval of the merger proposal by the requisite vote of Mid Penn and Scottdale shareholders and the receipt of all required regulatory approvals and expiration or termination of all statutory waiting periods in respect thereof, each as described herein, each party’s obligation to complete the merger is also subject to the satisfaction or waiver (to the extent permitted under applicable law) of certain other conditions, including the effectiveness of the registration statement containing this joint proxy statement/prospectus, approval of the listing on the Nasdaq of the Mid Penn common stock to be issued in the merger, the absence of any applicable law or order prohibiting the merger, the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the other party under the merger agreement (subject to the materiality standards set forth in the merger agreement), the performance by the other party of its respective obligations under the merger agreement in all material respects, delivery of officer certificates by the other party certifying satisfaction of the two preceding conditions and each of Mid Penn’s and Scottdale’s receipt of a tax opinion to the effect that the merger will be treated as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

Neither Scottdale nor Mid Penn can be certain when, or if, the conditions to the merger will be satisfied or waived, or that the merger will be completed.

No Solicitation of Other Offers (page [])

Scottdale has agreed that it will not, and Scottdale will cause its subsidiaries and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives, agents, and affiliates not to, between the date of the merger agreement and the closing of the merger, directly or indirectly:

 

    initiate, solicit, induce or knowingly encourage, or take any action to facilitate the making of, any inquiry, offer or proposal that constitutes, relates or could reasonably be expected to lead to an alternative acquisition proposal;

 

    recommend or endorse an alternative acquisition transaction;

 



 

17


Table of Contents
    participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding an alternative acquisition proposal, or furnish or afford access to information or data to any person;

 

    release anyone from, waive any provisions of, or fail to enforce any confidentiality agreement or standstill agreement to which Scottdale is a party; or

 

    enter into any agreement, agreement in principle or letter of intent with respect to any alternative acquisition proposal or approve or resolve to approve any alternative acquisition proposal or any agreement, agreement in principle or letter of intent relating to an alternative acquisition proposal.

The merger agreement does not, however, prohibit Scottdale from furnishing information or access to a third party who has made an alternative acquisition proposal and participating in discussions and negotiating with such person prior to the receipt of shareholder approval if specified conditions are met. Among those conditions is a good faith determination by Scottdale’s board of directors that the acquisition proposal constitutes or that could reasonably be expected to lead to a proposal that is more favorable, from a financial point of view, to Scottdale and its shareholders than the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement and is reasonably capable of being completed on its stated terms, taking into account all financial, regulatory, legal and other aspects of the proposal.

For further discussion of the restrictions on solicitation of acquisition proposals from third parties, see “The Merger Agreement—Agreement Not to Solicit Other Offers” beginning on page [●].

Termination of the Merger Agreement (page [])

We may mutually agree to terminate the merger agreement before completing the merger, even after Scottdale or Mid Penn shareholder approval. In addition, either of us may decide to terminate the merger agreement, if (i) a court or governmental entity issues a final order that is not appealable prohibiting the merger, (ii) a bank regulator which must grant a regulatory approval as a condition to the merger denies such approval of the merger and such denial has become final and is not appealable, (iii) the shareholders of Mid Penn or Scottdale fail to approve the merger at their respective special meetings, or (iv) the other party breaches the merger agreement in a way that would entitle the party seeking to terminate the agreement not to consummate the merger, subject to the right of the breaching party to cure the breach within 30 days following written notice. Either of us may terminate the merger agreement if the merger has not been completed by March 31, 2018, unless the reason the merger has not been completed by that date is a breach of the merger agreement by the company seeking to terminate the merger agreement.

Mid Penn may terminate the merger agreement if the Scottdale board of directors, in connection with the receipt of an alternative acquisition proposal, (1) enters into a letter of intent, agreement in principle or an acquisition agreement with respect to the alternative acquisition proposal, (2) fails to make, withdraws, modifies or qualifies its recommendation of the merger agreement in a manner adverse to Mid Penn, or (3) has otherwise made a determination to accept the alternative acquisition proposal.

Scottdale may terminate the merger agreement if Scottdale receives an alternative acquisition proposal and has made a determination to accept the alternative acquisition proposal. Scottdale may also terminate the merger agreement within five days of the later of (i) the date on which all regulatory approvals, and waivers, if applicable, necessary for consummation of the merger and the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement have been received or (ii) the date of the meeting of Scottdale shareholders (the “Determination Date”), if Scottdale’s board determines that each of the following have occurred:

 

    the average of the daily closing sale prices of a share of Mid Penn common stock as reported on Nasdaq for the 20 consecutive trading days immediately preceding the Determination Date (the “Determination Date Market Value”) is less than $19.50; and

 



 

18


Table of Contents
    the decrease in the price of Mid Penn common stock is more than 20% greater than the decrease in the SNL Small Cap Bank & Thrift Index during the same period.

However, if Scottdale chooses to exercise this termination right, Mid Penn has the option, within five business days of receipt of notice from Scottdale, to adjust the merger consideration and prevent termination under this provision.

Termination Fee (page [])

Scottdale will pay Mid Penn a termination fee of $2,365,500 if the merger agreement is terminated:

 

    by Mid Penn because Scottdale has received an alternative acquisition proposal, and Scottdale (1) enters into a letter of intent, agreement in principle or an acquisition agreement with respect to the alternative acquisition proposal, (2) fails to make, withdraws, modifies or qualifies its recommendation of the merger agreement in a manner adverse to Mid Penn, or (3) has otherwise made a determination to accept the alternative acquisition proposal; or

 

    by Scottdale, if Scottdale receives an alternative acquisition proposal and has made a determination to accept the alternative acquisition proposal in accordance with the terms of the merger agreement.

Expense Reimbursement Fee (page [])

Scottdale will pay Mid Penn an expense reimbursement fee equal to the lesser of (i) the amount of Mid Penn’s actual and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the merger agreement or (ii) $500,000 if the merger is terminated by Mid Penn as a result of the failure of the shareholders of Scottdale to approve the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement and, prior to the Scottdale shareholders’ meeting, any person shall have proposed or publicly announced an acquisition proposal for Scottdale.

Regulatory Approvals Required for the Merger (page [])

Completion of the merger and the bank merger are subject to the receipt of all approvals required to complete the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, including from the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “FRB”), the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) and the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities (the “PDB”).

Notifications and/or applications requesting approval may also be submitted to various other federal and state regulatory authorities and self-regulatory organizations. Mid Penn and Scottdale have agreed to use their reasonable best efforts to obtain all required regulatory approvals. Mid Penn, Scottdale and Lawrence Keister & Company are in the process of filing applications and notifications to obtain these regulatory approvals.

Although we currently believe that we should be able to obtain all required regulatory approvals in a timely manner, we cannot be certain when or if we will obtain them or, if obtained, whether they will contain terms, conditions or restrictions not currently contemplated that will be detrimental to Mid Penn after the completion of the merger or will contain a materially burdensome regulatory condition. The regulatory approvals to which completion of the merger is subject are described in more detail in the section entitled The Merger—Regulatory Approvals Required for the Merger,” beginning on page [●].

Investigation by Scottdale’s Special Committee (page [])

Shortly after the parties entered into the merger agreement, an employee and board member at Scottdale presented information to management of Scottdale and Mid Penn regarding a stock trade in the last quarter of

Table of Contents

2016 by an individual who was alleged to have access to material inside information. This was relayed to the full Scottdale board of director which then took action by forming a committee, comprised solely of outside directors, which we refer to as the special committee, to investigate the allegations. The special committee was authorized to, and did, retain independent counsel, the Washington D.C. office of Murphy & McGonigle, which we refer to as M&M, to assist in the investigation. M&M had no prior relationship with Scottdale.

The special committee communicated to Scottdale and Mid Penn that two shares, acquired from a retiring Scottdale employee (not the trade that formed the basis of the original investigation), appeared to have been transacted in violation of applicable federal securities laws. As to that trade, the special committee report identified multiple mitigating circumstances including that this transaction was consistent with ordinary course of conduct for stock purchases from retiring employees and the purchaser, on its own volition, immediately after announcement of the merger, remitted additional cash to the seller to increase the amount paid to equal the stock value identified in the merger agreement.

This matter has been reported to the independent auditors of both Scottdale and Mid Penn and has been reported to the SEC by Scottdale. The special committee’s investigation is described in more detail in the section entitled The Merger—Investigation by Scottdale’s Special Committee,” beginning on page [●].

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The following unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated financial information has been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting, giving effect to the merger of Mid Penn with Scottdale. The following unaudited pro forma combined consolidated financial information is based upon the assumption that the total number of shares of Scottdale common stock outstanding immediately prior to the completion of the merger will be 50,718 and utilizes the exchange ratio of 44.86 for 90% of Scottdale’s outstanding shares and cash of $5.9 million for 10% of Scottdale’s outstanding shares, which will result in 2,047,679 shares of Mid Penn common stock being issued in the transaction.

The following unaudited pro forma combined consolidated financial statements as of and for the periods ended June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 combine the historical consolidated financial statements of Mid Penn and Scottdale. The unaudited pro forma combined consolidated financial statements give effect to the proposed merger as if the merger occurred on June 30, 2017 with respect to the consolidated balance sheet, and at the beginning of the applicable period, for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and for the year ended December 31, 2016, with respect to the consolidated income statement.

The notes to the unaudited pro forma combined consolidated financial statements describe the pro forma amounts and adjustments presented below. THIS PRO FORMA DATA IS NOT NECESSARILY INDICATIVE OF THE OPERATING RESULTS THAT MID PENN WOULD HAVE ACHIEVED HAD IT COMPLETED THE MERGER AS OF THE BEGINNING OF THE PERIOD PRESENTED AND SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED AS REPRESENTATIVE OF FUTURE OPERATIONS.

Certain reclassifications have been made to Scottdale historical financial information in order to conform to Mid Penn’s presentation of financial information.

The actual value of Mid Penn’s common stock to be recorded as consideration in the merger will be based on the closing price of Mid Penn’s common stock at the time of the merger completion date. The proposed merger is targeted for completion by the fourth quarter of 2017. There can be no assurance that the merger will be completed as anticipated. For purposes of the pro forma financial information, the fair value of Mid Penn common stock to be issued in connection with the merger of Scottdale was based on Mid Penn’s closing stock price of $27.25 on March 28, 2017.

The pro forma financial information includes estimated adjustments, including adjustments to record assets and liabilities of Scottdale at their respective fair values and represents the pro forma estimates by Mid Penn based on available fair value information as of the dates of the merger agreement. In some cases, where noted, more recent information has been used to support estimated adjustments in the pro forma financial information.

We anticipate that the merger will provide the combined company with financial benefits that include reduced operating expenses. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated financial data, while helpful in illustrating the financial characteristics of the combined company under one set of assumptions, does not reflect the benefits of expected cost savings or opportunities to earn additional revenue and, accordingly, does not attempt to predict or suggest future results. It also does not necessarily reflect what the historical results of the combined company would have been had our companies been combined during these periods.

The unaudited pro forma combined consolidated financial information presented below is based on, and should be read together with, the historical financial information that Mid Penn and Scottdale have included in or incorporated by reference in this joint proxy statement/prospectus as of and for the indicated periods.

Explanatory Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Consolidated Financial Statements

 

A. Under Article 3.1 of the Definitive Merger Agreement, the shareholders of the 50,718 outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock will receive merger consideration valued at $1,166 per share for each share of Scottdale common stock, subject to an aggregate proration of no less than 90% of Mid Penn common stock, and no more than 10% cash. The actual final allocation of the merger consideration to be paid in Mid Penn common stock and cash is subject to the cumulative election of the Scottdale shareholders and the applicability of other relevant provisions of Article 3.1 of the Definitive Merger Agreement.

The unaudited pro forma combined consolidated financial statements assume that the Scottdale shareholders will collectively elect to receive the 10% maximum cash consideration as provided by the Definitive Merger Agreement, with the remaining 90% of acquisition consideration to be paid in MPB common shares, as follows:

Projected Allocation of Acquisition Purchase Price Consideration Between Cash and Mid Penn Common Stock

 

Total Acquisition Purchase Price Consideration:

     

Scottdale Common Shares Outstanding

     50,718     

Acquisition Consideration Value Per Scottdale Common Share

   x $ 1,166     
  

 

 

    

Total Purchase Price Consideration:

      $ 59,137,188  

Projected Cash Consideration—Maximum of 10 Percent of Total Acquisition Consideration per the Definitive Merger Agreement, Article 3.1.(d):

      $ 5,913,719  

Projected Acquisition Consideration to be Fulfilled with Issuance of Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. Common Shares (90% of Total Acquisition Consideration):

      $ 53,223,469

 

  * 90% of the acquisition consideration being paid in Mid Penn common stock would equate to the exchange of 45,646 Scottdale common shares for Mid Penn common stock. The maximum exchange rate as defined by the Definitive Merger Agreement Article 3.1.(e) is 44.86 Mid Penn shares for each share of Scottdale common stock (the actual final exchange rate will be dependent upon the price of the Mid Penn stock closer to the actual merger date). The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information projects the issuance of 2,047,679 Mid Penn common shares (45,646 Scottdale shares multiplied by the 44.86 maximum exchange rate) to fulfill the assumed 90% stock consideration.

 

B. The unaudited pro forma combined balance sheet reflects that, at the time of merger, Scottdale’s entire held-to-maturity investment portfolio will be designated as available-for-sale and recorded at fair value versus amortized cost. As of June 30, 2017, the amortized cost of this held-to-maturity portfolio was $92,697,000 and the estimated fair value was $92,951,000, which is consistent with the amortized cost and fair value for the portfolio as reported by Scottdale in its quarterly financial filing to bank regulatory agencies. The estimated fair value of the held-to-maturity securities was determined consistent with the Level II pricing inputs used to value Scottdale’s available-for sale securities, including matrix pricing, which is a method used to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for specific securities, but rather, by relying on the securities’ relationship similar benchmark-quoted securities.

 

C.

The estimated adjustments to Scottdale loans to reflect acquisition fair value include nonaccretable specific credit discounts totaling $383,000 on certain nonaccrual, past-due, and other loans with higher credit risk. Additionally, a combined amount of estimated general credit marks and interest rate marks on the remainder

  of the loan portfolio were estimated at $903,000 based upon a preliminary evaluation of the general credit risk and interest rate risk profile of the loan portfolio, which includes a high volume of real estate collateralized credits, and over $12 million of outstanding credits as of June 30, 2017, extending beyond fifteen years to maturity. The earnings impact of the accretable general and interest rate adjustments are projected for the unaudited pro forma statement of income to be recognized over approximately 10 years, using an amortization method based upon the expected life of the loans, is projected to increase pre-tax interest income by $90,000 in the first year post-merger.

 

D. This unaudited pro forma adjustment reflects the reversal of the Scottdale allowance for loan losses of $542,000 in accordance with the GAAP method of acquisition accounting requiring the recording of acquired loans at fair value.

 

E. Scottdale’s five bank properties, including land and buildings as improved, have a net book value (depreciated cost) of just over $1,000,000 as of June 30, 2017. The fair value of the Scottdale real estate will be determined by certified appraisals performed closer to the actual merger date. However, based upon an interim evaluation of the location and condition of the land and facilities, and considering the continued income-generating capability of all the properties, the preliminary estimate of the aggregate fair value of the premises and land for these unaudited pro forma combined consolidated financial statements was established at $1,150,000 resulting in a preliminary value adjustment of $150,000.

 

F. The foreclosed assets held for sale of Scottdale as of June 30, 2017, include two real estate properties with a recorded value of $385,000 with no near-term prospects for sale. One property accounts for approximately $360,000 of the total, and this property has been held for over five years. The estimated fair value of the foreclosed real estate will be determined by certified appraisals performed closer to the actual merger date. Given the likelihood for additional holding costs, and expectations that discounts to the carrying value would be probable in order to facilitate the sale of the real estate, an estimated fair value discount of $289,000 will be assumed for the unaudited combined consolidated financial statements.

 

G. The unaudited pro forma adjustment to the combined-entity net deferred tax asset includes the following components:

 

    Scottdale’s net deferred tax liability position, prior to the merger, includes a $1,878,000 valuation allowance representing a 100% reduction against two deferred tax asset components related to (i) a net operating loss (NOL) carryover of $1,075,000 that will begin to expire in 2030, and (ii) charitable contributions of $803,000 made by Scottdale in prior years that will expire if not used in 2017 and the coming tax years. The valuation allowance was recorded based upon Scottdale management’s uncertainty about Scottdale’s ability, as a standalone company, to generate sufficient federal taxable income to realize these expiring deferred tax benefits. Based upon Mid Penn’s level of reported earnings for the first six months of 2017, and the projected earnings of Mid Penn and Scottdale combined post-merger, Mid Penn believes it is probable that the combined entity will have sufficient federal taxable income to fully realize these deferred tax benefits.

 

    Certain acquisition accounting adjustments are projected to have a net deferred tax asset impact of $448,000 using an assumed tax rate of 34%.

For purposes of this unaudited pro forma combined consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2017, Goodwill of $11,189,000 is projected to result from the Mid Penn acquisition of Scottdale; however, the eventual amount actually recorded as Goodwill will be determined as part of the final acquisition accounting as of the merger date, and the Goodwill amount may be subject to change based on operations subsequent to June 30, 2017, as additional information becomes available and as additional analyses are performed. The Goodwill will not be amortized, but will be measured annually for impairment or more frequently if circumstances require. The unaudited pro forma combined consolidated statement of income projects no impairment in the first year post merger. The following reflects the unaudited pro forma calculation of

  * Per the Definitive Merger Agreement, no less than 90% of the consideration shall be paid in Mid Penn common stock and no more than 10% of the consideration shall be paid in cash.

 

I. The unaudited consolidated combined consolidated balance sheet projects a core deposit intangible asset (premium) of $696,000 reflecting the long-term stability and low decay rate of Scottdale’s high volume of core deposits. The unaudited combined consolidated statement of income projects the core deposit intangible to be amortized over a ten-year period using a sum of the year’s digits basis, resulting in $126,000 of intangible amortization in the first year post merger.

 

J. The unaudited pro forma combined consolidated financial statements reflect an adjustment of $67,000 to reflect the fair value adjustment for time deposit liabilities based on current interest rates for similar-maturing certificates of deposit as of June 30, 2017 (based upon national rates per the FDIC). The adjustment will be recognized using an amortization method based upon the estimated two-year average maturity of the Scottdale time deposits.

 

K. The unaudited consolidated combined consolidated balance sheet include adjustments for liabilities assumed relating to (i) contingent liabilities for contractual commitments of $522,000 related to termination provisions of Scottdale’s core processing, internet banking, and debit card processing service agreements; and (ii) establishment of a $100,000 reserve for potential liabilities assumed by Mid Penn for historical Scottdale activities that occurred prior to the merger date but were not covered through third-party insurance policies (Scottdale was self-insured for errors, omissions, directors and officers insurance coverage, and had no related potential liability/claim reserves accrued).

 

L.

The unaudited pro form adjustments to the common stock and additional paid-in-capital accounts, and to the number of common shares outstanding, reflect the impact of projected acquisition consideration of

Table of Contents
  $53,223,000 to be paid in Mid Penn common stock (through the issuance of 2,047,679 $1.00 par value common shares), as the unaudited pro forma combined consolidated financial information assumes that the Scottdale shareholders will collectively elect to receive the 10% maximum cash consideration (as provided by the Definitive Merger Agreement), with the remaining 90% of consideration to be distributed in MPB common shares. As further discussed in note (1) above, the 90% of the acquisition consideration being paid in Mid Penn common stock would equate to the exchange of 45,646 Scottdale common shares for Mid Penn common stock. The maximum exchange rate as defined by the Definitive Merger Agreement Article 3.1.(e) is 44.86 Mid Penn shares for each share of Scottdale common stock (the actual final exchange rate will be dependent upon the price of the Mid Penn stock closer to the actual merger date). Therefore, the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information projects the issuance of 2,047,679 Mid Penn common shares (45,646 Scottdale shares multiplied by the 44.86 maximum exchange rate) to fulfill the assumed 90% stock consideration. The adjustments to retained earnings, treasury stock, and accumulated other comprehensive income reflect the elimination of the respective balances in the Scottdale equity accounts.

 

M. The unaudited consolidated combined statement of income reflects accruals for $1,253,000 of merger-related expenses relating to (i) $453,000 of projected severance and retention bonus benefits to be accrued for and paid to certain Scottdale employees expected to be displaced as of, or shortly after, the effective date of the merger; (ii) $510,000 for Scottdale’s investment banking fees not yet paid and contingent upon the successful closing of the merger; (iii) $175,000 for Mid Penn’s investment banking fees not yet paid and contingent upon the successful closing of the merger; and (iv) $115,000 for Mid Penn’s core processing, storage and imaging, internet banking, and debit card processing service amendments related to the expansion of existing systems and service agreement for the merger-related conversion and integration of Scottdale customer and account data.

 

N. The unaudited pro forma income tax expense adjustment assumes a tax rate of 34% related to merger-related expense and fair value adjustments on pre-tax amounts in the unaudited pro forma combined consolidated statement of income.

COMPARATIVE PER SHARE DATA (UNAUDITED)

The following table sets forth certain historical Mid Penn and Scottdale per share data giving effect to the merger (which we refer to as “pro forma” information). In presenting the comparative pro forma information for the time periods shown, we assumed that we had been merged on the date or at the beginning of the period indicated.

Mid Penn anticipates that the combined company will derive financial benefits from the merger that include reduced operating expenses and the opportunity to earn more revenue. The pro forma combined information, while helpful in illustrating the financial characteristics of Mid Penn following the merger under one set of assumptions, does not reflect these benefits and, accordingly, does not attempt to predict or suggest future results. The pro forma combined information also does not necessarily reflect what the historical results of Mid Penn would have been had our companies been combined during this period.

This data should be read together with Mid Penn’s and Scottdale’s historical financial statements and notes thereto, included elsewhere in or incorporated by reference in this document. Please see “Selected Consolidated Historical Financial Data of Mid Penn” beginning on page [●], “Selected Consolidated Historical Financial Data of Scottdale” beginning on page [●] and “Where You Can Find More Information” beginning on page [●]. The per share data is not necessarily indicative of the operating results that Mid Penn would have achieved had it completed the merger as of the beginning of the periods presented and should not be considered as representative of future operations.

(1) The pro forma combined basic earnings and diluted earnings of Mid Penn’s common stock is based on the pro forma combined net income per common share for Mid Penn and Scottdale divided by the pro forma common shares or diluted common shares of the combined entity, assuming 90% of the outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock are exchanged for Mid Penn common stock at an exchange ratio of 44.86 shares of Mid Penn common stock for each share of Scottdale common stock in accordance with the merger agreement. The pro forma information includes adjustments related to the estimated fair value of assets and liabilities and is subject to adjustment as additional information becomes available and as additional analysis is performed. The pro forma information does not include anticipated cost savings or revenue enhancements.
(2) The pro forma combined book value of Mid Penn’s common stock is based on pro forma combined common shareholders’ equity of Mid Penn and Scottdale divided by total pro forma common shares of the combined entities, assuming 90% of the outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock are exchanged for Mid Penn common stock at an exchange ratio of 44.86 shares of Mid Penn common stock for each share of Scottdale common stock in accordance with the merger agreement. The unaudited pro forma combined consolidated information does not include anticipated cost savings or revenue enhancements.
(3) The pro forma equivalent per share amount is calculated by multiplying the pro forma combined per share amount by an assumed exchange ratio of 44.86, assuming 90% of the outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock are exchanged for Mid Penn common stock at an exchange ratio of 44.86 shares of Mid Penn common stock for each share of Scottdale common stock in accordance with the merger agreement.

RISK FACTORS

In considering whether to vote in favor of the proposal to adopt the merger agreement, you should consider all of the information included in this document and its annexes and all of the information we have incorporated by reference and the risk factors identified by Mid Penn with respect to its operations included in its filings with the SEC, including in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. See “Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference.” In addition, you should consider the following risk factors.

Because the market price of Mid Penn shares of common stock will fluctuate, Scottdale shareholders cannot be sure of the value of the merger consideration they may receive.

Upon completion of the merger, each share of Scottdale common stock will be converted into the right to receive merger consideration consisting of shares of Mid Penn common stock and/or cash pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, subject to the requirement that at least 90% of the outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock be exchanged for shares of Mid Penn common stock. The sale prices for shares of Mid Penn common stock may vary from the sale prices of Mid Penn common stock on the date we announced the merger, on the date this joint proxy statement/prospectus was mailed to Scottdale shareholders and on the date of the special meeting of the Scottdale shareholders. Any change in the market price of Mid Penn shares of common stock prior to closing the merger may affect the value of the merger consideration that Scottdale shareholders will receive upon completion of the merger. Scottdale is not permitted to resolicit the vote of Scottdale shareholders solely because of changes in the market price of Mid Penn shares of common stock. Stock price changes may result from a variety of factors, including general market and economic conditions, changes in our respective businesses, operations and prospects and regulatory considerations. Many of these factors are beyond our control. You should obtain current market quotations for shares of Mid Penn common stock.

Scottdale shareholders may receive a form of consideration different from what they elect.

The consideration to be received by Scottdale shareholders in the merger is subject to the requirement that at least 90% of the shares of Scottdale common stock is exchanged for Mid Penn common stock and up to 10% is exchanged for cash. The merger agreement contains proration and allocation procedures to achieve this desired result. If you elect all cash and the available cash is oversubscribed, then you will receive a portion of the merger consideration in Mid Penn common stock. If you elect all stock and the available stock is oversubscribed, then you will receive a portion of the merger consideration in cash.

Mid Penn may be unable to successfully integrate Scottdale’s operations and retain Scottdale’s employees.

The merger involves the integration of two companies that have previously operated independently. The difficulties of combining the operations of the two companies include, among other things: integrating personnel with diverse business backgrounds; combining different corporate cultures; and retaining key employees.

The process of integrating operations could cause an interruption of, or loss of momentum in, the activities of the business and the loss of key personnel. The integration of the two companies will require the experience and expertise of certain key employees of Scottdale who are expected to be retained by Mid Penn. Mid Penn may not be successful in retaining these employees for the time period necessary to successfully integrate Scottdale’s operations with those of Mid Penn. The diversion of management’s attention and any delays or difficulties encountered in connection with the merger and the integration of the two companies’ operations could have an adverse effect on the business and results of operations of Mid Penn following the merger.

Additionally, Mid Penn may not be able to successfully achieve the level of cost savings and other synergies that it expects, and may not be able to capitalize upon the existing customer relationships of Scottdale to the extent anticipated, or it may take longer, or be more difficult or expensive than expected to achieve these goals. This could have an adverse effect on Mid Penn’s business, results of operation and stock price.

Scottdale shareholders who make elections may be unable to sell their shares in the market pending the completion of the merger.

Scottdale shareholders may elect to receive cash, stock or mixed consideration in the merger by completing an election form that will be sent under separate cover. Making an election will require that shareholders turn in their Scottdale stock certificates. This means that during the time between when the election is made and the date the merger is completed, Scottdale shareholders will be unable to sell their Scottdale common stock. If the merger is unexpectedly delayed, this period could extend for a significant period of time. Scottdale shareholders can shorten the period during which they cannot sell their shares by delivering their election shortly before the election deadline. However, elections received after the election deadline will not be accepted or honored.

The market price of Mid Penn shares of common stock after the merger may be affected by factors different from those currently affecting the shares of Scottdale.

The businesses of Mid Penn and Scottdale differ and, accordingly, the results of operations of the combined company and the market price of the combined company’s shares of common stock may be affected by factors different from those currently affecting the independent results of operations of Mid Penn. For a discussion of the businesses of Mid Penn and Scottdale, see the documents incorporated by reference in this joint proxy statement/prospectus and referred to under “Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference” on page [●].

Scottdale shareholders will have a reduced ownership percentage and voting interest after the merger and will exercise less influence over management.

Scottdale’s shareholders currently have the right to vote in the election of the board of directors of Scottdale and on certain other matters affecting Scottdale. When the merger occurs, each Scottdale shareholder that receives shares of Mid Penn common stock will become a shareholder of Mid Penn with a percentage ownership of the combined organization that is much smaller than the shareholder’s current percentage ownership of Scottdale. Following completion of the merger, assuming Scottdale shareholders elect to convert 10% of the total outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock into cash and 90% of the total outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock into Mid Penn stock, current Mid Penn shareholders will own in the aggregate [    ]% of the outstanding shares of Mid Penn common stock and Scottdale shareholders will own approximately [    ]% of the outstanding shares of Mid Penn common stock. If the Scottdale shareholders elect to convert greater than 90% of their shares into stock, their percentage ownership would be proportionately higher, so that if 100% of the Scottdale shares were converted into stock the Scottdale shareholders would own approximately [    ]% of the outstanding shares of Mid Penn common stock.

Because of this, Scottdale’s shareholders will have less influence on the management and policies of Mid Penn than they now have on the management and policies of Scottdale.

Disclosures made to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and other regulatory agencies may result in additional inquiry or proceedings, reputational damage and other negative consequences which could adversely affect the financial condition and future operating results of Mid Penn and Scottdale.

Shortly after the parties entered into the merger agreement, an employee and board member at Scottdale presented information to management of Scottdale and Mid Penn regarding a stock trade in the last quarter of 2016 by an individual who was alleged to have access to material inside information. This was relayed to the full Scottdale board of director which then took action by forming the special committee to investigate the allegations. The special committee was authorized to, and did, retain independent counsel, M&M, to assist in the investigation. M&M had no prior relationship with Scottdale.

During the course of the investigation, M&M reviewed written materials and records, electronic communications and conducted interviews with Scottdale employees, officers and directors. M&M also reviewed two trades in addition to the one described above. M&M then presented its findings to the special committee and worked with the special committee in preparing its report to the full Scottdale board of directors. Of the trades that were reviewed, the special committee communicated to Scottdale and Mid Penn that two shares, acquired from a

 

34


Table of Contents

retiring Scottdale employee (not the trade that formed the basis of the original investigation), appeared to have been transacted in violation of applicable federal securities laws. As to that trade, the special committee report identified multiple mitigating circumstances including that this transaction was consistent with ordinary course of conduct for stock purchases from retiring employees and the purchaser, on its own volition, immediately after announcement of the merger, remitted additional cash to the seller to increase the amount paid to equal the stock value identified in the merger agreement.

This matter has been provided to the independent auditors of both Scottdale and Mid Penn and has been reported to the SEC by Scottdale.

The SEC or any federal bank regulatory agencies may conduct their own inquiry into the matters investigated by the special committee and reported by Scottdale. An investigation by the SEC or any federal bank regulatory agencies could lead to the institution of civil or administrative proceedings against Scottdale or, as successor by merger, Mid Penn as well as against individuals currently or previously associated with Scottdale. Any such proceedings or threatened proceedings might result in the imposition of monetary fines or other sanctions against the named parties. Resulting sanctions could include remedial measures that might prove costly or disruptive to the business of Scottdale and Mid Penn. The pendency of any investigation by the SEC or any federal bank regulatory agencies and any resulting litigation or sanctions could harm our reputation, leading to a loss of existing and potential customers, or other developments which could adversely affect the financial condition and future operating results of Scottdale and Mid Penn. In addition, management time and resources will be diverted to address the investigation and any related litigation, and Scottdale and Mid Penn may incur significant legal and other expenses in defense of the investigation and any related litigation.

Future issuances of Mid Penn equity securities could dilute shareholder ownership and voting interest.

Mid Penn’s articles of incorporation authorize the issuance of up to 10 million shares of common stock, which is the maximum number of shares Mid Penn may have issued and outstanding at any one time. Mid Penn’s ability to issue additional shares is reduced by the number of shares that are currently outstanding and already reserved for future issuances. Any future issuance of equity securities by Mid Penn may result in dilution in the percentage ownership and voting interest of Mid Penn shareholders. Also, any securities Mid Penn sells in the future may be valued differently and the issuance of equity securities for future services, acquisitions or other corporate actions may have the effect of diluting the value of shares held by Mid Penn shareholders.

The merger agreement limits Scottdale’s ability to pursue alternatives to the merger.

The merger agreement contains “no shop” provisions that, subject to specified exceptions, limit Scottdale’s ability to discuss, facilitate or commit to competing third-party proposals to acquire all or a significant part of Scottdale. In addition, a termination fee is payable by Scottdale under certain circumstances, generally involving the decision to pursue an alternative transaction. These provisions might discourage a potential competing acquiror that might have an interest in acquiring all or a significant part of Scottdale from considering or proposing that acquisition, even if it were prepared to pay consideration with a higher per share value than that proposed in the merger, or might result in a potential competing acquiror proposing to pay a lower per share price to acquire Scottdale than it might otherwise have proposed to pay, if the merger with Mid Penn had not been announced.

Scottdale shareholders have dissenters’ rights in the merger.

Dissenters’ rights are statutory rights that, if applicable under law, enable shareholders to dissent from an extraordinary transaction, such as a merger, and to demand that the corporation pay the fair value for their shares as determined by a court in a judicial proceeding instead of receiving the merger consideration offered to shareholders in connection with the extraordinary transaction.

Table of Contents

The merger is subject to the receipt of consents and approvals from governmental and regulatory entities that may impose conditions that could have an adverse effect on Mid Penn.

Before the merger may be completed, various waivers, approvals or consents must be obtained from the FRB, the FDIC and the PDB. These governmental entities may impose conditions on the completion of the merger or require changes to the terms of the merger. Such conditions or changes could have the effect of delaying completion of the merger or imposing additional costs on, or limiting the revenues of, Mid Penn following the merger, any of which might have an adverse effect on Mid Penn following the merger. In addition, neither Mid Penn nor Scottdale is obligated to complete the merger if the regulatory approvals received in connection with the completion of the merger include any condition or restriction that either of the boards of directors of Mid Penn or Scottdale reasonably determines would materially and adversely affect the business, operations, financial condition, property or assets of Mid Penn, Mid Penn Bank, or Scottdale or would materially impair the value of Scottdale to Mid Penn or of Mid Penn or Mid Penn Bank to Scottdale.

Scottdale’s directors and executive officers have financial interests in the merger that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of Scottdale shareholders.

Scottdale’s directors and executive officers have financial interests in the merger that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of Scottdale shareholders. For example, Donald F. Kiefer, or a mutually agreed upon qualified replacement candidate, will serve on the board of directors of Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank after the merger and will receive compensation for his services as a director. In addition, certain officers or employees have entered into settlement agreements pursuant to which they will receive certain payments at the effective time of the merger. For information concerning these interests, please see the discussion under the caption “The Merger—Interests of Scottdale’s Directors and Executive Officers in the Merger” on page [●].

The shares of Mid Penn common stock to be received by Scottdale shareholders as a result of the merger will have different rights from the shares of Scottdale common stock.

Upon completion of the merger, Scottdale shareholders who receive the stock consideration will become Mid Penn shareholders. Their rights as shareholders will be governed by Pennsylvania corporate law and the articles of incorporation and bylaws of Mid Penn. The rights associated with Scottdale common stock are governed by the articles of incorporation and bylaws of Scottdale and are different from the rights associated with Mid Penn common stock. See the section of this joint proxy statement/prospectus titled “Comparison of Shareholders’ Rights” beginning on page [●] for a discussion of the different rights associated with Mid Penn common stock.

Termination of the merger agreement could negatively affect Scottdale.

If the merger agreement is terminated, there may be various consequences, including the fact that Scottdale’s businesses may have been adversely impacted by the failure to pursue other beneficial opportunities due to the focus of management on the merger, without realizing any of the anticipated benefits of completing the merger.

If the merger agreement is terminated and Scottdale’s board of directors seeks another merger or business combination, Scottdale shareholders cannot be certain that Scottdale will be able to find a party willing to offer equivalent or more attractive consideration than the consideration Mid Penn has agreed to provide in the merger.

If the merger agreement is terminated and a different business combination is pursued, Scottdale may be required to pay a termination fee of $2,365,500 to Mid Penn under certain circumstances. See “The Merger Agreement—Termination Fee” beginning on page [●].

The fairness opinions obtained by Scottdale and Mid Penn from their respective financial advisors will not reflect changes in circumstances subsequent to the date that such opinions were rendered.

Scottdale has obtained a fairness opinion dated as of March 29, 2017, from its financial advisor, Ambassador. Mid Penn has obtained a fairness opinion dated as of March 29, 2017, from its financial advisor, Sandler. Neither Scottdale nor Mid Penn has obtained, and neither will obtain, an updated opinion as of the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus from their respective financial advisor. Changes in the operations and prospects of Mid Penn or Scottdale, general market and economic conditions and other factors that may be beyond the control of Mid Penn and Scottdale may alter the value of Mid Penn or Scottdale or the price of shares of Mid Penn common stock or Scottdale common stock by the time the merger is completed. The opinions do not speak to the time the merger will be completed or to any other date other than the date of such opinions. As a result, the opinions will not address the fairness of the merger consideration, from a financial point of view, at the time the merger is completed. For a description of the opinion that Scottdale received from Ambassador, please see “The Merger—Opinion of Scottdale’s Financial Advisor” beginning on page [●] of this joint proxy statement/prospectus. For a description of the opinion that Mid Penn received from Sandler, please see “The Merger—Opinion of Mid Penn’s Financial Advisor” beginning on page [●] of this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

The merger agreement may be terminated in accordance with its terms and the merger may not be completed.

The merger agreement is subject to a number of conditions that must be fulfilled in order to complete the merger. Those conditions include, among others: approval of the merger agreement by Mid Penn and Scottdale shareholders, regulatory approvals, absence of orders prohibiting the completion of the merger, effectiveness of the registration statement of which this joint proxy statement/prospectus is a part, approval of the shares of Mid Penn common stock to be issued to Scottdale shareholders for listing on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, the continued accuracy of the representations and warranties by both parties, the performance by both parties of their covenants and agreements, and the receipt by both parties of legal opinions from their respective tax counsels. See “The Merger Agreement—Termination of the Merger Agreement” beginning on page [●] for a more complete discussion of the circumstances under which the merger agreement could be terminated. The conditions to closing of the merger may not be fulfilled and the merger may not be completed.

We may fail to realize all of the anticipated benefits of the merger.

The success of the merger will depend, in part, on our ability to realize the anticipated benefits and cost savings from combining the businesses of Mid Penn and Scottdale. However, to realize these anticipated benefits and cost savings, which include increased Mid Penn lending limits and access to stable core deposits, we must successfully combine the businesses of Mid Penn and Scottdale. If we are not able to achieve these objectives, the anticipated benefits and cost savings of the merger may not be realized fully or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected.

Mid Penn and Scottdale have operated and, until the completion of the merger, will continue to operate, independently. It is possible that the integration process could result in the loss of key employees, the disruption of each company’s ongoing businesses or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies that adversely affect our ability to maintain relationships with clients, customers, depositors and employees or to achieve the anticipated benefits of the merger. Integration efforts between the two companies will also divert management attention and resources. These integration matters could have an adverse effect on Mid Penn or Scottdale during the transition period.

Another expected benefit from the merger is an expected increase in the revenues of the combined company from anticipated sales of Mid Penn’s greater variety of financial products, and from increased lending out of Mid Penn’s substantially larger capital base, to Scottdale’s existing customers and to new customers in Scottdale’s market area who may be attracted by the combined company’s enhanced offerings. An inability to

 

37


Table of Contents

successfully market Mid Penn’s products to Scottdale’s customer base could cause the earnings of the combined company to be less than anticipated.

Failure to complete the merger could negatively affect the market price of Mid Penn’s and Scottdale’s common stock.

If the merger is not completed for any reason, Mid Penn and Scottdale will be subject to a number of material risks, including the following:

 

    the market price of Scottdale common stock may decline to the extent that the current market prices of its common stock already reflect a market assumption that the merger will be completed;

 

    costs relating to the merger, such as legal, accounting and financial advisory fees, and, in specified circumstances, additional reimbursement and termination fees, must be paid even if the merger is not completed; and

 

    the diversion of management’s attention from the day-to-day business operations and the potential disruption to each company’s employees and business relationships during the period before the completion of the merger may make it difficult to regain financial and market positions if the merger does not occur.

Unanticipated costs relating to the merger could reduce Mid Penn’s future earnings per share.

Mid Penn and Scottdale believe that they have reasonably estimated the likely incremental costs of the combined operations of Mid Penn and Scottdale following the merger. However, it is possible that unexpected transaction costs such as taxes, fees or professional expenses or unexpected future operating expenses such as unanticipated costs to integrate the two businesses, increased personnel costs or increased taxes, as well as other types of unanticipated adverse developments, including negative changes in the value of Scottdale’s loan portfolio, could have a material adverse effect on the results of operations and financial condition of Mid Penn following the merger. In addition, if actual costs are materially different than expected costs, the merger could have a significant dilutive effect on Mid Penn’s earnings per share.

Scottdale will be subject to business uncertainties and contractual restrictions while the merger is pending.

Uncertainty about the effect of the merger on employees and customers may have an adverse effect on Scottdale and consequently on Mid Penn. These uncertainties may impair Scottdale’s ability to attract, retain and motivate key personnel until the merger is consummated, and could cause customers and others that deal with Scottdale to seek to change existing business relationships with Scottdale. Retention of certain employees may be challenging while the merger is pending, as certain employees may experience uncertainty about their future roles with Mid Penn. If key employees depart because of issues relating to the uncertainty and difficulty of integration or a desire not to remain with Mid Penn, Mid Penn’s business following the merger could be harmed. In addition, the merger agreement restricts Scottdale from taking certain actions until the merger occurs without the consent of Mid Penn. These restrictions may prevent Scottdale from pursuing attractive business opportunities that may arise prior to the completion of the merger. Please see the section entitled “The Merger Agreement—Covenants and Agreements” beginning on page [●] of this joint proxy statement/prospectus for a description of the restrictive covenants to which Scottdale is subject under the merger agreement.

If the merger is not completed, Scottdale and Mid Penn will have incurred substantial expenses without realizing the expected benefits of the merger.

Scottdale and Mid Penn have both incurred substantial expenses in connection with the merger. The completion of the merger depends on the satisfaction of specified conditions and the receipt of regulatory approvals and the approval of Mid Penn’s and Scottdale’s shareholders. Scottdale and Mid Penn cannot guarantee that these

conditions will be met. If the merger is not completed, these expenses could have an adverse impact on the financial condition and results of operations on a stand-alone basis for both Scottdale and Mid Penn.

The federal income tax consequences of the merger for Scottdale stockholders will be dependent upon the merger consideration received.

The federal income tax consequences of the merger to you will depend upon the merger consideration you receive. In general, if you exchange your shares of Scottdale common stock solely for cash, you will recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes in an amount equal to the difference between the cash you receive and your adjusted tax basis in your Scottdale common stock. If you receive solely Mid Penn common stock in exchange for your Scottdale common stock, you generally will not recognize any gain or loss for federal income tax purposes. However, you generally will have to recognize gain or loss in connection with cash received in lieu of fractional shares of Mid Penn common stock. If you receive a combination of cash and Mid Penn common stock in the transaction, you generally will not recognize loss but will recognize gain, if any, to the extent of any cash received. For a more detailed discussion of the federal income tax consequences of the transaction to you, see, “Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger” on page [●].

Litigation relating to the merger could require us to incur significant costs and suffer management distraction, as well as delay and/or enjoin the merger.

Neither Scottdale nor Mid Penn is currently able to predict the outcome of any suit arising out of or relating to the proposed transaction that may be filed in the future. If any letters or complaints are filed, absent allegations that are material, Scottdale and Mid Penn will not necessarily announce such additional filings.

Scottdale and Mid Penn could be subject to additional demands or litigation related to the merger, whether or not the merger is consummated. Such actions may create additional uncertainty relating to the merger, and responding to such demands and defending such actions may be costly and distracting to management. Although there can be no assurance as to the ultimate outcomes of the demand or any subsequent litigation, neither Scottdale nor Mid Penn believes that the resolution of such demands or any subsequent litigation will have a material adverse effect on its respective financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

    the merger may be more expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events;

 

    higher than expected increases in Mid Penn’s or Scottdale’s loan losses or in the level of nonperforming loans;

    unanticipated reduction in Mid Penn’s or Scottdale’s respective deposit bases or funding sources;

 

    government intervention in the U.S. financial system and the effects of and changes in trade and monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including the interest rate risk policies of the FRB;

 

    legislative and regulatory actions could subject Mid Penn to additional regulatory oversight which may result in increased compliance costs and/or require Mid Penn to change its business model;

 

    the integration of Scottdale’s business and operations with those of Mid Penn may take longer than anticipated, may be more costly than anticipated and may have unanticipated adverse results relating to Scottdale’s or Mid Penn’s existing businesses; and

 

    the anticipated cost savings and other synergies of the merger may take longer to be realized or may not be achieved in their entirety, and attrition in key client, partner and other relationships relating to the merger may be greater than expected.

THE MERGER

Background of the Merger

The Scottdale board has periodically reviewed the competitive environment in its market area as well as merger and acquisition activity in the financial services industry in general and in Pennsylvania in particular. The Scottdale board of directors and management have also been aware in recent years of changes in the financial services industry and the regulatory environment as well as the competitive challenges facing a financial institution such as Scottdale. These challenges have included increasing government regulations, increasing expense burdens and commitments for technology and training, and increasing competition in the delivery of financial products and services combined with increased customer expectations for the availability of sophisticated financial products and services from financial institutions. The most concerning of these factors has been the significant regulatory burden for smaller community banks.

Beginning in April 2016, Donald F. Kiefer, Scottdale’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Lawrence J. Kiefer, Scottdale’s Treasurer, and Lynn Kiefer Andras, Scottdale’s head of human resources, had discussions with representatives of multiple investment banking firms about the process of reviewing strategic alternatives. Messrs. D. Kiefer and L. Kiefer and Ms. Andras are siblings and collectively, directly and indirectly, control a majority of the shares of Scottdale’s common stock. Mr. D. Kiefer and Ms. Andras also serve as members of the Scottdale board of directors. The strategic alternatives considered included, among other things, continuing on-going operations as an independent institution, obtaining additional financing, acquiring other depository institutions and entering into a merger or acquisition transaction with a similarly sized or larger institution.

Between June 3, 2016 and November 14, 2016, Messrs. D. Kiefer and L. Kiefer and Ms. Andras held a number of conversations and meetings with representatives of Ambassador, an investment banking firm, to discuss Scottdale’s markets, customers and strategic plans. On October 17, 2016, Scottdale engaged Ambassador to serve as its financial advisor. On November 15, 2016, Scottdale’s board of directors met to discuss the banking environment and the strategic alternatives discussed above, including the universe of potential acquirors. Representatives of Ambassador and Scottdale’s outside counsel, Tucker Arensberg, were present. The Scottdale board of directors instructed Ambassador to contact potential buyers and to commence a process to determine interest in a potential combination with Scottdale.

Between November 17, 2016 and December 22, 2016, Ambassador contacted twenty-four potential acquirors, with seventeen of them entering into nondisclosure agreements with Scottdale. Simultaneously, between November 29, 2016 and December 7, 2016, representatives of Ambassador and Scottdale’s management had in-person visits with ten potential acquirors, including Mid Penn’s management on December 5, 2016. Between December 7, 2016 and December 22, 2016, representatives of Ambassador had conference calls or made inquires with the other seven potential acquirors who had entered into nondisclosure agreements.

Scottdale also had meetings with four potential acquirors that requested in-person meetings. On December 14, 2016, Messrs. D. Kiefer and L. Kiefer and Ms. Andras met with Rory G. Ritrievi, Mid Penn’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Michael D. Peduzzi, Mid Penn’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, and Justin T. Webb, Mid Penn’s Executive Vice President and Chief Risk Officer, to discuss a potential business combination. Discussions centered around business models, culture and philosophies and potential deal structures and preliminary pricing. Messrs. D. Kiefer and L. Kiefer and Ms. Andras had similar meetings with representatives of Bank C on December 14, 2016, representatives of Bank D on December 16, 2016 and representatives of Bank B on December 19, 2016.

On December 30, 2016, representatives of Sandler, an investment banking firm, sent Mid Penn’s management its first analysis of a potential combination between Mid Penn and Scottdale.

On January 4, 2017, Ambassador circulated bid instructions pursuant to which interested parties could send non-binding letters of intent. On January 12, 2017, Mid Penn’s management discussed the terms of a potential

letter of intent with representatives of Sandler. On January 16, 2017, the executive committee of the Mid Penn board of directors met to review the potential opportunity to combine with Scottdale and the terms of the letter of intent. Mid Penn’s management and representatives of Sandler were present. The executive committee of the Mid Penn board of directors instructed its management to submit a letter of intent valuing Scottdale between $54 million and $61 million. On January 17, 2017, Mid Penn submitted its initial letter of intent.

On January 24, 2017, the Scottdale board of directors met with management and representatives of Ambassador to review the five letters of intent received. Following a review and extensive discussion, the Scottdale board of directors instructed management to continue discussions with Mid Penn and Bank B. Bank B and Mid Penn were asked to submit revised non-binding letters of intent. Representatives of Ambassador notified the other three participants that they were no longer in the process.

On February 9, 2017 and February 10, 2017, Bank B conducted due diligence on Scottdale. On February 15, 2017, Mid Penn’s management conducted due diligence on Scottdale at an off-site location.

On February 22, 2017, the Mid Penn board of directors met with its management and representatives of Sandler to review a potential acquisition of Scottdale, including the terms of a revised letter of intent.

On February 23, 2017, Scottdale’s management and representatives of Ambassador visited Bank B to meet with its management to discuss a potential transaction. Messrs. D. Kiefer and L. Kiefer and Ms. Andras and their brother, Bruce Kiefer, who is a Scottdale shareholder and sibling of Messrs. D. Kiefer and L. Kiefer and Ms. Andras, and a representative of Ambassador visited Mid Penn on February 27, 2017 to meet with its management and some members of the Mid Penn board of directors to discuss a potential transaction.

On February 28, 2017, Mid Penn and Bank B submitted revised letters of intent. On March 3, 2017, the Scottdale board of directors met with management and representatives of Ambassador to review the both revised letters of intent. Following a review and extensive discussion, the Scottdale board of directors instructed management to continue discussions with Mid Penn. Representatives of Ambassador notified Bank B that it was no longer in the process. On March 10, 2017, Scottdale and Mid Penn entered into an exclusivity agreement.

On March 13, 2017, Mid Penn’s legal counsel, Stevens & Lee, circulated an initial draft of the merger agreement to Scottdale. From the initial delivery of a draft of the merger agreement on March 13, 2017 through March 29, 2017, Stevens & Lee, as counsel to Mid Penn, and Tucker Arensberg, as counsel to Scottdale, exchanged multiple drafts of the merger agreement. Throughout the course of negotiations, Stevens & Lee and Tucker Arensberg each had several conversations with management of their respective clients regarding the developments and progress of the negotiations and received input from management regarding the issues emerging from such negotiations.

On March 17, 2017, Scottdale’s management conducted on-site reverse due diligence on Mid Penn. Representatives of Ambassador were present.

On March 22, 2017, the Mid Penn board of directors met with management to review the status of the transaction, including the present terms of the merger and the merger agreement. Representatives of Sandler and Stevens & Lee were present.

On March 29, 2017, the Scottdale board of directors held a special meeting to review the merger proposal as set forth in the definitive merger agreement and related documents negotiated by Scottdale and Mid Penn and their respective advisors. The Scottdale board received a presentation regarding the results of due diligence conducted on Mid Penn from Scottdale’s management. At the meeting, Ambassador reviewed with Scottdale’s board of directors the financial aspects of the proposed merger and rendered to the board an oral opinion (which was confirmed by a written opinion, dated March 29, 2017) to the effect that, as of such date and subject to the procedures followed, assumptions made, matters considered, and qualifications and limitations on the review

undertaken by Ambassador as set forth in its written opinion, the merger consideration to be received by the holders of Scottdale common stock in the merger was fair to such holders from a financial point of view. After careful and deliberate consideration of the presentations as well as the interests of Scottdale’s shareholders, customers, employees and communities served by Scottdale, Scottdale’s board of directors unanimously (i) determined that the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby were advisable and fair to and in the best interests of Scottdale, (ii) approved and adopted the merger agreement and approved the merger and the other transactions contemplated thereby and (iii) subject to the board’s fiduciary duties, recommended the approval and adoption of the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby by Scottdale’s shareholders.

Also on March 29, 2017, the Mid Penn board of directors held a special meeting to review the final draft of the merger agreement. Stevens & Lee reviewed the provisions of the merger agreement in detail with the board of directors. Sandler reviewed its financial analyses of the merger and delivered an oral opinion, which was subsequently confirmed in writing, to the effect that, as of that date and subject to assumptions made, procedures followed, matters considered and limitations on the review undertaken set forth in the opinion, the merger consideration in the merger was fair, from a financial point of view, to Mid Penn. After careful consideration of these presentations and further discussion, the Mid Penn board of directors unanimously approved the merger agreement and agreed to recommend that Mid Penn’s shareholders adopt and approve the merger agreement and the merger.

After the market closed on March 29, 2017, the parties exchanged signature pages for the merger agreement and voting agreements, and Scottdale and Mid Penn issued a joint press release announcing the execution of the merger agreement.

Scottdale’s Reasons for the Merger

In reaching its conclusion to approve the merger and the merger agreement and recommend that Scottdale’s shareholders vote FOR adoption of the merger agreement, Scottdale’s board of directors, at its meeting held on March 29, 2017, considered the merger agreement and determined it to be fair to, advisable and in the best interests of Scottdale, its shareholders and its other constituencies. Scottdale’s board of directors unanimously voted in favor of the merger agreement and the transactions it contemplates. In evaluating the merger, Scottdale’s board of directors consulted with management, as well as Scottdale’s legal and financial advisors, and considered a number of factors, including:

 

    a review of Scottdale’s current business, operations, earnings, financial condition and prospects and of Mid Penn’s current business, operations, earnings, financial condition and prospects, taking into account its familiarity with Mid Penn, its management and the results of Scottdale’s due diligence review of Mid Penn;

 

    knowledge of the current environment in the financial services industry, including economic conditions, the continuing consolidation, increasing operating costs resulting from federal and state regulatory initiatives and compliance mandates, increasing competition from larger regional institutions and current financial market conditions and the likely effects of these factors on Scottdale’s potential growth, productivity and strategic options;

 

    the terms and conditions of the merger, including both the amount and nature of the consideration proposed to be paid in connection with the merger and Scottdale’s board’s assessment of the likelihood that the merger would be completed in a timely manner;

 

    the fact that Scottdale shareholders will receive a significant premium;

 

    the fact that Scottdale would continue to operate as a separate banking division of Mid Penn Bank for at least 3 years following completion of the merger;

 

    the financial presentation of Ambassador, including its opinion, dated March 29, 2017, as more fully described below under the caption “Opinion of Scottdale’s Financial Advisor;”

 

43


Table of Contents
    the fact that Scottdale’s stock is not very liquid and that Mid Penn’s stock trades on The Nasdaq Global Select Market which provides greater liquidity;

 

    the fact that the merger consideration, in the form of shares of Mid Penn common stock, will be tax-free to Scottdale shareholders;

 

    the current Mid Penn cash dividend rate;

 

    expansion of the Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank boards or directors to include Donald F. Kiefer or a mutually agreed upon qualified replacement candidate;

 

    the fact that the merger is not expected to result in significant employment loss for current Scottdale employees;

 

    the fact that no Scottdale branch closings are anticipated;

 

    the opportunity to offer Scottdale’s customers additional products and services, especially those related to loans and technology;

 

    the increased ability to cope with cybersecurity demands;

 

    the potential cost saving opportunities; and

 

    the positive anticipated impact of the merger on Scottdale’s employees and the surrounding community.

Scottdale’s board of directors also considered a variety of risks and other potentially negative factors concerning the merger, including, without limitation, the following factors:

 

    the risk that potential benefits of the merger, including possible synergies, might not be realized;

 

    the possibility that the consummation of the merger may be delayed, or not occur;

 

    the incurrence of substantial expenses related to the merger, including transaction expenses and integration costs;

 

    the time commitment of management to effectuate the merger; and

 

    the other potential risks described under the heading “Risk Factors” in this joint proxy statement/prospectus.

The foregoing discussion of the information and factors considered by the board of directors of Scottdale is not intended to be exhaustive, but includes the material factors considered by the board of directors of Scottdale. In reaching its decision to approve the merger agreement, the merger and the other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, the board of directors of Scottdale did not quantify or assign any relative weights to the factors considered, and individual directors may have given different weights to different factors. The board of directors of Scottdale considered all these factors as a whole, including discussions with, and questioning of Scottdale’s management and Scottdale’s independent financial and legal advisors, and overall considered the factors to be favorable to, and to support, its determination.

Scottdale shareholders should be aware that Scottdale’s directors and executive officers have interests in the merger that are different from, or in addition to, those of other Scottdale shareholders. The board of directors of Scottdale was aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in evaluating and negotiating the merger agreement, and in recommending that the Merger Proposal be approved by the shareholders of Scottdale. See “—Scottdale’s Directors and Executive Officers Have Financial Interests in the Merger.

This summary of the reasoning of the Board of Directors of Scottdale and other information presented in this section is forward-looking in nature and, therefore, should be read in light of the factors discussed under the heading “Forward-Looking Statements.”

Recommendation of Scottdale’s Board of Directors

Scottdale’s board of directors believes that the terms of the transaction are in the best interests of Scottdale and its shareholders and has unanimously approved the merger agreement. Accordingly, Scottdale’s board of directors unanimously recommends that Scottdale’s shareholders vote “FOR” adoption of the merger agreement and “FOR” an adjournment of the Scottdale special meeting, if necessary, to solicit additional proxies.

Opinion of Scottdale’s Financial Advisor

Scottdale retained Ambassador to act as Scottdale’s financial advisor in connection with the possible business combination of Scottdale with another party. Ambassador is a nationally recognized investment banking firm whose principal business specialty is financial institutions. In the ordinary course of its investment banking business, Ambassador is regularly engaged in the valuation of financial institutions and their securities in connection with mergers, acquisitions and other corporate transactions.

On March 29, 2017, Ambassador delivered its opinion to Scottdale’s board of directors to the effect that, as of such date and based upon and subject to various considerations set forth in the opinion, the merger consideration to be received by the holders of Scottdale common stock in the merger was fair to such holders from a financial point of view. Ambassador’s opinion was approved by Ambassador’s Fairness Opinion Committee. Ambassador has consented to the inclusion of its opinion in this proxy statement/prospectus.

The full text of Ambassador’s written opinion to Scottdale, which sets forth, among other things, the assumptions made, procedures followed, factors considered and limitations on the review undertaken, is attached as Annex B to this proxy statement/prospectus and is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this proxy statement/prospectus. Holders of Scottdale common stock are encouraged to read the opinion carefully in its entirety. The following summary of Ambassador’s opinion is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such opinion.

Ambassador’s opinion to Scottdale’s board of directors was rendered for the benefit of Scottdale’s board (in its capacity as such) in connection with its evaluation of the merger. Ambassador’s opinion is not intended and does not constitute a recommendation to any stockholder as to how such stockholder should vote or act with respect to the merger or any matter relating thereto. Ambassador’s opinion does not address the relative merits of the merger as compared to any other transaction or business strategy in which Scottdale might engage or the merits of the underlying decision by Scottdale to engage in the merger.

No limitations were imposed by Scottdale on the scope of Ambassador’s investigation or on the procedures followed by Ambassador in rendering its opinion.

In rendering the opinion, Ambassador:

 

    Reviewed the merger agreement dated March 29, 2017;

 

    Reviewed Scottdale’s audited financial statements as of or for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014;

 

    Reviewed Mid Penn’s Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, including the financial statements contained therein;

 

    Reviewed Scottdale’s and Mid Penn Bank’s respective quarterly call reports for December 31, 2016, September 30, 2016, June 30, 2016, and March 31, 2016;

 

    Reviewed other publicly available information regarding Scottdale and Mid Penn;

 

45


Table of Contents
    Reviewed certain non-public information provided to Ambassador by or on behalf of Scottdale and Mid Penn, regarding Scottdale and Mid Penn (including financial projections and forecasts for Scottdale and Mid Penn provided to Ambassador by the respective managements of Scottdale and Mid Penn) and projected cost savings anticipated by the management of Mid Penn to be realized from the merger;

 

    Reviewed recently reported stock prices and trading activity of Mid Penn common stock and Scottdale common stock;

 

    Discussed the past and current operations, financial condition and future prospects of Scottdale and Mid Penn with senior executives of Scottdale and Mid Penn, respectively;

 

    Reviewed and analyzed certain publicly available financial and stock market data of banking companies that Ambassador selected as relevant to Ambassador’s analysis of Scottdale and Mid Penn;

 

    Reviewed and analyzed certain publicly available financial data of transactions that Ambassador selected as relevant to its analysis of Scottdale;

 

    Considered Mid Penn’s financial and capital position and certain potential pro forma financial effects of the merger on Mid Penn;

 

    Considered the results of the process conducted by or on behalf of Scottdale, with Ambassador’s assistance, to solicit indications of interest from third parties with respect to a possible sale of Scottdale;

 

    Conducted other analyses and reviewed other information Ambassador considered necessary or appropriate; and

 

    Incorporated Ambassador’s assessment of the overall economic environment and market conditions, as well as Ambassador’s experience in mergers and acquisitions, bank stock valuations and other transactions.

In rendering Ambassador’s opinion, Ambassador also relied upon and assumed, without independent verification, the accuracy, reasonableness and completeness of the information provided to Ambassador by or on behalf of Scottdale and Mid Penn and publicly available information used in Ambassador’s analyses. Ambassador did not assume any responsibility for the accuracy, reasonableness and completeness of any of the foregoing materials provided to Ambassador and publicly available information or for the independent verification thereof. With respect to the financial projections and forecasts for Scottdale and Mid Penn reviewed by Ambassador and other non-public information related to projected cost savings referred to above, Ambassador assumed, with Scottdale’s consent, that they have been reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and judgments of the respective managements of Scottdale and Mid Penn, as the case may be, as to the future financial performance of Scottdale and Mid Penn and such cost savings and that the financial results reflected in such projections and forecasts as well as such cost savings would be realized in the amounts and at the times projected. Ambassador assumed no responsibility for and expressed no view as to any of the foregoing financial projections and forecasts, other non-public information reviewed by Ambassador or the assumptions on which they were based.

Ambassador is not an expert in the evaluation of deposit accounts or loans, mortgages or similar portfolios or allowances for losses with respect thereto and Ambassador was not requested to, and Ambassador did not, conduct a review of individual credit files or loans, mortgages or similar portfolios. Ambassador assumed no responsibility for and expressed no view as to the adequacy or sufficiency of allowances for losses or other matters with respect thereto and Ambassador assumed that each of Scottdale and Mid Penn had, and the pro forma combined company would have, appropriate reserves to cover any such losses. Ambassador did not conduct any independent valuation or appraisal of any of the assets or liabilities (contingent or otherwise) of Scottdale, Mid Penn or any other party, and Ambassador was not furnished with any such valuation or appraisal.

Table of Contents

Ambassador’s opinion was based on conditions as they existed and the information Ambassador received, as of the date of Ambassador’s opinion. Ambassador does not have any obligation to update, revise or reaffirm its opinion. Ambassador expressed no opinion as to the actual value of Mid Penn common stock when issued in the merger or the prices at which Scottdale common stock or Mid Penn common stock might trade at any time.

In rendering its opinion, Ambassador assumed, with Scottdale’s consent, that the merger and related transactions would be consummated on the terms described in the merger agreement, without any waiver or modification of any material terms or conditions. Ambassador also assumed, with Scottdale’s consent, that, in the course of obtaining the necessary governmental, regulatory and other third party approvals, consents and releases for the merger, including with respect to any divestiture or other requirements, no delay, limitation, restriction or condition would be imposed that would have an adverse effect on Scottdale, Mid Penn or the merger (including the contemplated benefits thereof). Ambassador also assumed, with Scottdale’s consent, that the final merger agreement would not differ from the draft reviewed by Ambassador in any respect material to Ambassador’s analyses or opinion. Ambassador further assumed, with Scottdale’s consent, that the merger would qualify for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

Ambassador expressed no view or opinion as to any terms or other aspects (other than the merger consideration to the extent expressly specified in Ambassador’s opinion) of the merger or any related transaction. Ambassador expressed no opinion with respect to the fairness of the amount or nature of any compensation to any of the officers, directors, or employees of any party to the merger, or any class of such persons, relative to the merger consideration or otherwise.

In performing its analyses, Ambassador made numerous assumptions with respect to industry performance, general business, economic, market and financial conditions and other matters, which are beyond the control of Ambassador, Scottdale and Mid Penn. Any estimates contained in the analyses performed by Ambassador are not necessarily indicative of actual values or future results, which may be significantly more or less favorable than suggested by these analyses. Additionally, estimates of the value of businesses or securities do not purport to be appraisals or to reflect the prices at which such businesses or securities might actually be sold. Accordingly, these analyses and estimates are inherently subject to substantial uncertainty. In addition, Ambassador’s opinion was among several factors taken into consideration by the Scottdale’s board in making its determination to approve the merger agreement and the merger. Consequently, the analyses described below should not be viewed as determinative of the decision of the Scottdale board with respect to the fairness of the merger consideration. The type and amount of consideration payable in the merger were determined through negotiation between Scottdale and Mid Penn and the decision to enter into the merger agreement was solely that of Scottdale’s board.

Selected Implied Transaction Ratios for the Merger

Based on Scottdale’s financial information as of December 31, 2016, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016 or for the three months ended December 31, 2016 (annualized) or the closing price of Scottdale common stock on March 27, 2017, Ambassador calculated the following transaction ratios using an implied per share value of the merger consideration of $1,166, or an implied transaction value of approximately $59.1 million:

 

Transaction value / tangible book value

     130

Transaction value / last twelve months earnings

     107.6

Transaction value / last three months earnings annualized

     28.1

Core deposit premium1

     6.4

Market premium to average closing price2

     153.5

 

(1) Calculated as follows: (implied transaction value—tangible equity) / core deposits; where core deposits are defined as: total deposits, less time deposit accounts with balances over $100,000, foreign deposits, and unclassified deposits.

(2) Calculated as follows: (implied per share value of the merger consideration – average closing price) / average closing price; where the average closing price is defined as the 20 trading day average closing price as of March 27, 2017.

The following is a summary of the material financial analysis presented by Ambassador to Scottdale’s board in connection with rendering its opinion. This summary is not a complete description of the analyses and procedures performed by Ambassador in the course of arriving at its opinion. The financial analyses summarized below include information presented in tabular format. The tables alone do not constitute a complete description of the financial analyses. The preparation of a fairness opinion is a complex analytical process involving various determinations as to appropriate and relevant methods of financial analysis and the application of those methods to the particular circumstances. Therefore, a fairness opinion is not readily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description. In arriving at its opinion, Ambassador did not attribute any particular weight to any analysis or factor that it considered, but rather made qualitative judgments as to the significance and relevance of each analysis and factor. Accordingly, Ambassador believes that its analyses and the summary of its analyses must be considered as a whole and that selecting portions of its analyses and factors or focusing on the information presented below in tabular format, without considering all analyses and factors or the full narrative description of the financial analyses, including the methodologies and assumptions underlying the analyses, could create a misleading or incomplete view of the process underlying its analyses and opinion. No company, transaction or business used in Ambassador’s analyses for comparative purposes is identical to Scottdale, Mid Penn or the proposed merger and an evaluation of the results of those analyses is not entirely mathematical.

Comparable Institutions Analysis of Scottdale

Ambassador performed a comparable institutions analysis by comparing the financial and stock performance of Scottdale with those of the following nine selected publicly traded institutions that were headquartered in Pennsylvania, Ohio or West Virginia, were not mutual institutions or merger or acquisition targets and had assets between $200 million and $500 million, average one-year daily trading volume greater than 200, nonperforming assets to assets ratios less than 2%, and returns on equity less than 7%:

Discounted Dividend Analysis of Scottdale with Cost Savings

Ambassador performed a discounted divided analysis including cost savings to estimate a range for the implied equity value of Scottdale common stock to an acquirer. In this analysis, Ambassador assumed discount rates of 10%, 12% and 14% and calculated terminal values of 90% and 110% estimated tangible book value at the end of seven years. Ambassador used financial projections and forecasts for Scottdale provided to Ambassador by the management of Scottdale and projected cost savings anticipated by the management of Mid Penn to be realized from the merger. This analysis indicated an implied present value reference range of Scottdale common stock of $441 per share to $675 per share, which are 11.1X and 17.0X, respectively, of Scottdale’s 2016 adjusted earnings per share9 and 49% and 75%, respectively, of Scottdale’s tangible book value as of December 31, 2016.

Comparable Transactions Analysis of Scottdale

Ambassador performed a comparable transaction analysis by reviewing the following information for purposes of comparison with selected implied transaction ratios for the merger:

 

    Publicly available acquisition metrics of 415 selected transactions in the United States that were announced from January 1, 2014 through March 27, 2017 with announced deal values in excess of $10 million, excluding mergers of equals (“Nationwide M&A Pricing”).

 

    Publicly available acquisition metrics of 13 selected transactions in which the selling bank was based in Pennsylvania that were announced from January 1, 2012 through March 27, 2017 with seller assets between $100 million to $400 million (“Pennsylvania Transactions”).

 

    Publicly available acquisition metrics of 9 selected transactions in the United States that were announced from January 1, 2012 through March 27, 2017 with announced deal values in excess of $10 million, seller’s tangible equity to tangible assets over 12.0% and seller’s loans to assets under 40.0% (“Nationwide Comparable Transactions”).

 

(9) Adjusted to exclude a one-time loss on sale of bank owned property and a one-time reversal of provision and inclusive of a 30% cost savings assumption as anticipated by Mid Penn’s management team. A marginal tax rate of 34% was assumed when making these adjustments.

Discounted Dividend Analysis of Mid Penn

Ambassador performed a discounted divided analysis to estimate a range for the implied equity value of Mid Penn common stock. In this analysis, Ambassador assumed discount rates of 10%, 12% and 14% and calculated terminal values of 14X and 16X estimated earnings per share at the end of seven years. Ambassador used financial projections and forecasts for Mid Penn provided to Ambassador by the management of Mid Penn. This analysis indicated an implied present value range of Mid Penn common stock of $20.24 per share to $28.81 per share, which are 11.0X and 15.6X, respectively, of Mid Penn’s 2016 earnings per share and 130% and 184%, respectively, of Mid Penn’s tangible book value per share as of December 31, 2016.

(18) Earnings are based on 2016 full year earnings adjusted to remove the one-time loss on sale of bank owned property and a one-time negative provision expense, using a 34% effective tax rate.
(19) Shares to be issued in merger based on Mid Penn’s closing stock price on March 27, 2017.

Financial Impact Analysis on Mid Penn

Ambassador also conducted a financial impact analysis assuming that the merger will close at the end of the third quarter of 2017. Ambassador used historical financial data as of December 31, 2016, or for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016, estimated standalone earnings for Mid Penn and Scottdale, as provided by Mid Penn, and projected cost savings anticipated by the management of Mid Penn to be realized from the merger. Ambassador also incorporated other pro forma assumptions as provided by Mid Penn. The analysis indicated that the merger could be accretive to tangible book value per share as of September 30, 2017 and could be dilutive to earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, annualized. Furthermore, Ambassador’s analysis indicated that, pro forma for the merger, Mid Penn’s tangible equity to tangible assets ratio as of September 30, 2017 could be higher. All of the results of Ambassador’s financial impact analysis may vary materially from the actual results achieved by Mid Penn.

Other Disclosures

Ambassador, as part of its financial advisory business, is regularly engaged in the valuation of businesses and their securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions and valuations for corporate and other purposes. Scottdale selected Ambassador to act as a financial advisor and to provide a fairness opinion based on Ambassador’s experience, including in connection with mergers and acquisitions of commercial banks and bank holding companies.

Scottdale has agreed to pay Ambassador a fee for its services totaling approximately $640,000, a portion of which fee became payable upon presentation of Ambassador’s opinion and approximately $510,000 of Ambassador’s fee is contingent upon the closing of the merger. In addition, portions of Ambassador’s fee became payable upon the signing of Ambassador’s engagement agreement, upon approval by Scottdale of a

 

55


Table of Contents

confidential information memorandum, upon the execution of an exclusivity agreement between Scottdale and Mid Penn, and a portion of Ambassador’s fee is payable upon the mailing of Scottdale’s proxy statement to its shareholders regarding the merger. Scottdale has also agreed to reimburse Ambassador’s out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with its engagement and to indemnify Ambassador against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of its obligations under the engagement letter.

Over the two years preceding the date of Ambassador’s opinion, Ambassador did not provide investment banking or other consulting services to Scottdale or Mid Penn for which Ambassador received compensation from Scottdale or Mid Penn. In the future, Ambassador may pursue the opportunities to provide investment banking and other consulting services to Scottdale and Mid Penn, but none have been discussed or contemplated.

Ambassador is an approved broker-dealer for Mid Penn Bank and periodically purchases securities from, and sells securities to, Mid Penn Bank.

Ambassador’s fairness committee approved the issuance of its opinion letter dated March 29, 2017.

Mid Penn’s Reasons for the Merger

The board of directors and senior management of Mid Penn periodically review and evaluate the economic and regulatory environments in which Mid Penn and its affiliated companies operate. Part of this review in recent years has included an acknowledgement of the effects of additional oversight and regulation on revenues, expenses and capital requirements for financial institutions, particularly community banks, as a result of the passage in 2010 of the Dodd-Frank Act and other factors, and consideration of competitive factors. The board of directors and senior management generally believe that greater size and scale can help a community-oriented financial institution address the costs of anticipated additional regulation as well as provide additional revenue opportunities and provide a platform to compete more effectively with larger financial institutions. In light of these observations, Mid Penn has elected to pursue a controlled growth strategy, which may include both organic growth and the targeted acquisition of other financial institutions with strong performance characteristics in Mid Penn’s market area or in contiguous market areas.

Mid Penn entered into the merger agreement to further implement this strategy, as well as to provide additional opportunities for revenue growth. Mid Penn’s board of directors reviewed and discussed the transaction with senior management, as well as its financial and legal advisors, in unanimously determining that the merger was advisable and in the best interests of Mid Penn. In reaching its determination, the Mid Penn board of directors considered a number of factors, including:

 

    the board’s understanding of the business operations, management, financial condition, asset quality, product offerings, and prospects of Scottdale based on, among other things, presentations by management and Mid Penn’s financial advisor;

 

    the board’s concurrence with management that the merger provides Mid Penn with increased scale and stronger market concentration in markets that Mid Penn believes will be receptive to its services, strengthens Mid Penn’s retail banking network, and provides a broader platform to sell non-banking services;

 

    the board’s view that Scottdale’s product offerings and business mix are compatible with those of Mid Penn and provide Mid Penn with opportunities to accelerate loan growth and to build upon the market share of secondary market loan generations, as well as opportunities to expand Mid Penn’s insurance, wealth management, and mortgage banking activities;

 

    the results of the due diligence examination of Scottdale and its business operations, including asset quality and composition of its investment portfolio, undertaken by management with the assistance of Mid Penn’s financial advisor;

    the financial information and analyses presented by Mid Penn’s financial advisor, Sandler, and the opinion of Sandler delivered to Mid Penn’s board of directors to the effect that, as of March 29, 2017, and based on and subject to the various factors, limitations, considerations, qualifications and assumptions set forth in the opinion, the merger consideration was fair, from a financial point of view, to Mid Penn; and

 

    the review by the board of directors with, Stevens & Lee, its legal advisor, of the structure of the merger and the financial and other terms of the merger agreement.

The foregoing discussion of the information and factors considered by Mid Penn’s board of directors is not exhaustive, but includes the material factors considered by the board. In view of the wide variety of factors considered by the board of directors of Mid Penn in connection with its evaluation of the merger and the complexity of these matters, the board of directors did not consider it practical to, and did not attempt to, quantify, rank or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific factors that it considered in reaching its decision. Mid Penn’s board of directors evaluated the factors described above, including asking questions of Mid Penn’s legal and financial advisors. In considering the factors described above, individual members of Mid Penn’s board of directors may have given different weights to different factors. The board of directors relied on the experience and expertise of its legal advisors regarding the structure of the merger and the terms of the merger agreement and on the experience and expertise of its financial advisors for quantitative analysis of the financial terms of the merger. It should also be noted that this explanation of the reasoning of Mid Penn’s board of directors and certain other information presented in this section are forward-looking in nature and, therefore, should be read in light of the factors discussed under the heading “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” on page [●].]

Recommendation of Mid Penn’s Board of Directors

Mid Penn’s board of directors believes that the terms of the transaction are in the best interests of Mid Penn and its shareholders and has unanimously approved the merger agreement. Accordingly, Mid Penn’s board of directors unanimously recommends that Mid Penn shareholders vote “FOR” adoption of the merger agreement and “FOR” an adjournment of the Mid  Penn special meeting, if necessary to solicit additional proxies.

Opinion of Mid Penn’s Financial Advisor

By letter dated March 13, 2017, Mid Penn retained Sandler O’Neill to render a fairness opinion to the Mid Penn board of directors in connection with Mid Penn’s consideration of a possible business combination with Scottdale. Sandler O’Neill is a nationally recognized investment banking firm whose principal business specialty is financial institutions. In the ordinary course of its investment banking business, Sandler O’Neill is regularly engaged in the valuation of financial institutions and their securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions and other corporate transactions.

Sandler O’Neill rendered a fairness opinion in connection with the proposed merger and participated in certain of the negotiations leading to the execution of the merger agreement. At the March 29, 2017 meeting at which Mid Penn’s board of directors considered and approved the merger agreement, Sandler O’Neill delivered to the Mid Penn board of directors its oral opinion, which was subsequently confirmed in writing, to the effect that, as of such date, the merger consideration provided for in the merger agreement was fair to Mid Penn from a financial point of view.

The full text of Sandler O’Neill’s opinion is attached as Annex C to this joint proxy statement/prospectus. The opinion outlines the procedures followed, assumptions made, matters considered and qualifications and limitations on the review undertaken by Sandler O’Neill in rendering its opinion. The description of the opinion set forth below is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the opinion. Mid Penn common stockholders are urged to read the entire opinion carefully in connection with their consideration of the Mid Penn merger proposal.

Sandler O’Neill’s opinion speaks only as of the date of the opinion. The opinion was directed to Mid Penn’s board of directors in connection with its consideration of the merger and is directed only to the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the merger consideration to Mid Penn. Sandler O’Neill’s opinion does not constitute a recommendation to any Mid Penn stockholder as to how such Mid Penn stockholder should vote at any meeting of stockholders called to consider and vote upon the Mid Penn merger proposal. It does not address the underlying business decision of Mid Penn to engage in the merger, the form or structure of the merger, the relative merits of the merger as compared to any other alternative business strategies that might exist for Mid Penn or the effect of any other transaction in which Mid Penn might engage. Sandler O’Neill did not express any opinion as to the fairness of the amount or nature of the compensation to be received in the merger by any Mid Penn or Scottdale officers, directors, or employees, or class of such persons, if any, relative to the compensation to be received in the merger by any other stockholders. Sandler O’Neill’s opinion was approved by Sandler O’Neill’s fairness opinion committee.

In connection with rendering its opinion, Sandler O’Neill reviewed and considered, among other things:

 

    a draft of the merger agreement, dated March 27, 2017;

 

    certain publicly available financial statements and other historical financial information of Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank that Sandler O’Neill deemed relevant;

 

    certain publicly available financial statements and other historical financial information of Scottdale that Sandler O’Neill deemed relevant;

 

    internal financial projections for Mid Penn for the years ending December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2020, as provided by the senior management of Mid Penn;

 

    financial projections for Scottdale for the years ending December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2020, as provided by the senior management of Mid Penn;

 

    the pro forma financial impact of the Merger on Mid Penn based on certain assumptions relating to transaction expenses, purchase accounting adjustments, cost savings and certain balance sheet restructuring transactions, as provided by the senior management of Mid Penn;

 

    the publicly reported historical price and trading activity for Mid Penn common stock, including a comparison of certain stock market information for Mid Penn common stock and certain stock indices, as well as similar publicly available information for certain other similar companies, the securities of which are publicly traded;

 

    a comparison of certain financial information for Mid Penn and Scottdale with similar institutions for which information is publicly available;

 

    the financial terms of certain recent business combinations in the bank and thrift industry (on a regional and nationwide basis), to the extent publicly available;

 

    the current market environment generally and the banking environment in particular; and

 

    such other information, financial studies, analyses and investigations and financial, economic and market criteria as Sandler O’Neill considered relevant.

Sandler O’Neill also discussed with certain members of the senior management of Mid Penn the business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects of Mid Penn and held similar discussions with certain members of the senior management of Scottdale regarding the business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects of Scottdale.

In performing its review, Sandler O’Neill relied upon the accuracy and completeness of all of the financial and other information that was available to and reviewed by Sandler O’Neill from public sources, that was provided to Sandler O’Neill by Mid Penn or Scottdale, or their respective representatives, or that was otherwise reviewed by Sandler O’Neill and Sandler O’Neill assumed such accuracy and completeness for purposes of rendering its opinion without any independent verification or investigation. Sandler O’Neill further relied on the assurances of the respective managements of Mid Penn and Scottdale that they were not aware of any facts or circumstances that would have made any of such information inaccurate or misleading. Sandler O’Neill was not asked to and did not undertake an independent verification of any of such information and Sandler O’Neill did not assume any responsibility or liability for the accuracy or completeness thereof. Sandler O’Neill did not make an independent evaluation or perform an appraisal of the specific assets, the collateral securing assets or the liabilities (contingent or otherwise) of Mid Penn or Scottdale, or any of their respective subsidiaries, nor was Sandler O’Neill furnished with any such evaluations or appraisals. Sandler O’Neill rendered no opinion or evaluation on the collectability of any assets or the future performance of any loans of Mid Penn or Scottdale, or any of their respective subsidiaries. Sandler O’Neill did not make an independent evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses of Mid Penn or Scottdale, or the combined entity after the merger, and Sandler O’Neill did not review any individual credit files relating to Mid Penn or Scottdale. Sandler O’Neill assumed, with Mid Penn’s consent, that the respective allowances for loan losses for both Mid Penn and Scottdale were adequate to cover such losses and will be adequate on a pro forma basis for the combined entity.

In preparing its analyses, Sandler O’Neill used internal financial projections for Mid Penn for the years ending December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2020, as provided by the senior management of Mid Penn, as well as financial projections for Scottdale for the years ending December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2020, as provided by the senior management of Mid Penn. Sandler O’Neill also received and used in its pro forma analyses certain assumptions relating to transaction expenses, purchase accounting adjustments, cost savings and certain balance sheet restructuring transactions, as provided by the senior management of Mid Penn. With respect to the foregoing information, the senior management of Mid Penn confirmed to Sandler O’Neill that such information reflected the best currently available projections, estimates and judgments of the senior management of Mid Penn and Sandler O’Neill assumed that the financial results reflected in such information would be achieved. Sandler O’Neill expressed no opinion as to such projections, estimates or judgments, or the assumptions on which they were based. Sandler O’Neill also assumed that there had been no material change in Mid Penn’s or Scottdale’s (or any of their respective subsidiaries’) assets, financial condition, results of operations, business or prospects since the date of the most recent financial statements made available to it. Sandler O’Neill assumed in all respects material to its analysis that Mid Penn and Scottdale would remain as going concerns for all periods relevant to its analyses.

Sandler O’Neill also assumed, with Mid Penn’s consent, that (i) each of the parties to the merger agreement would comply in all material respects with all material terms and conditions of the merger agreement and all related agreements, that all of the representations and warranties contained in such agreements were true and correct in all material respects, that each of the parties to such agreements would perform in all material respects all of the covenants and other obligations required to be performed by such party under such agreements and that the conditions precedent in such agreements were not and would not be waived, (ii) in the course of obtaining the necessary regulatory or third party approvals, consents and releases with respect to the merger, no delay, limitation, restriction or condition would be imposed that would have an adverse effect on Mid Penn, Scottdale or the merger or any related transaction, (iii) the merger and any related transactions would be consummated in accordance with the terms of the merger agreement without any waiver, modification or amendment of any material term, condition or agreement thereof and in compliance with all applicable laws and other requirements, and (iv) the merger would qualify as a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax purposes. Finally, with Mid Penn’s consent, Sandler O’Neill relied upon the advice that Mid Penn received from its legal, accounting and tax advisors as to all legal, accounting and tax matters relating to the merger and the other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement.

Sandler O’Neill’s opinion was necessarily based on financial, economic, market and other conditions as in effect on, and the information made available to it as of, the date thereof. Events occurring after the date thereof could materially affect Sandler O’Neill’s opinion. Sandler O’Neill has not undertaken to update, revise, reaffirm or withdraw its opinion or otherwise comment upon events occurring after the date thereof. Sandler O’Neill expressed no opinion as to the trading values of Mid Penn common stock or Scottdale common stock at any time or what the value of Mid Penn common stock would be once it was actually received by the holders of Scottdale common stock.

In performing its analyses, Sandler O’Neill made numerous assumptions with respect to industry performance, general business, economic, market and financial conditions and other matters, which were beyond the control of Sandler O’Neill, Mid Penn and Scottdale. Any estimates contained in the analyses performed by Sandler O’Neill were not necessarily indicative of actual values or future results, which could be significantly more or less favorable than suggested by these analyses. Additionally, estimates of the values of businesses or securities did not purport to be appraisals or to reflect the prices at which such businesses or securities could actually be sold. Accordingly, these analyses and estimates were inherently subject to substantial uncertainty. In addition, Sandler O’Neill’s opinion was among several factors taken into consideration by the Mid Penn board of directors in making its determination to approve the merger agreement and the merger. Consequently, the analyses described below should not be viewed as determinative of the decision of the Mid Penn board of directors with respect to the fairness of the merger or the merger consideration. The type and amount of consideration payable in the merger were determined through negotiation between Mid Penn and Scottdale and the decision to enter into the merger agreement was solely that of the Mid Penn board of directors.

The following is a summary of the material financial analyses presented by Sandler O’Neill to the Mid Penn board of directors in connection with its opinion. The summary is not a complete description of the financial analyses underlying the opinion or the presentation made by Sandler O’Neill to the Mid Penn board of directors, but summarizes the material analyses performed and presented in connection with such opinion. The financial analyses summarized below include information presented in tabular format. In order to fully understand the financial analyses, these tables must be read together with the accompanying text. The tables alone do not constitute a complete description of the financial analyses. The preparation of a fairness opinion is a complex analytic process involving various determinations as to appropriate and relevant methods of financial analysis and the application of those methods to the particular circumstances. Therefore, a fairness opinion is not readily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description. In arriving at its opinion, Sandler O’Neill did not attribute any particular weight to any analysis or factor that it considered, but rather made qualitative judgments as to the significance and relevance of each analysis and factor. Accordingly, Sandler O’Neill believes that its analyses and the summary of its analyses must be considered as a whole and that selecting portions of its analyses and factors or focusing on the information presented below in tabular format, without considering all analyses and factors or the full narrative description of the financial analyses, including the methodologies and assumptions underlying the analyses, could create a misleading or incomplete view of the process underlying its analyses and opinion.

Summary of Proposed Merger Consideration and Implied Transaction Metrics

Sandler O’Neill reviewed the financial terms of the proposed merger. Subject to the provisions of the merger agreement, at the Effective Time, each share of Scottdale common stock, except for certain shares as defined in the merger agreement, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted at the election of the holder thereof into: (a) $1,166.00 in cash; or (b) a certain number of shares of Mid Penn common stock, par value $1.00 per share, equal to the Exchange Ratio. Based upon Mid Penn’s March 24, 2017 closing stock price of $26.35, an implied exchange ratio of 44.25x, and 50,718 shares of Scottdale common stock outstanding, Sandler O’Neill calculated an implied transaction value per share of $1,166 and an aggregate implied transaction value of approximately $59.1 million.

Net Present Value Analyses

Sandler O’Neill performed an analysis that estimated the net present value per share of Mid Penn’s common stock, assuming Mid Penn performed in accordance with internal financial projections for the years ending December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2020, as provided by the senior management of Mid Penn. To approximate the terminal value of Mid Penn common stock at December 31, 2020, Sandler O’Neill applied price to 2020 earnings multiples ranging from 12.0x to 22.0x and multiples of December 31, 2020 tangible book value ranging from 110% to 210%. The terminal values were then discounted to present values using different discount rates ranging from 10.0% to 15.0%, which were chosen to reflect different assumptions regarding required rates of return of holders or prospective buyers of Mid Penn common stock. As illustrated in the following tables, the analysis indicated an imputed range of values per share of Mid Penn common stock of $19.99 to $41.44 when applying multiples of earnings and $15.78 to $33.47 when applying multiples of tangible book value.

Sandler O’Neill also considered and discussed with the Mid Penn board of directors how this analysis would be affected by changes in the underlying assumptions, including variations with respect to net income. To illustrate this impact, Sandler O’Neill performed a similar analysis, assuming Mid Penn’s net income varied from 20% above projections to 20% below projections. This analysis resulted in the following range of per share values for Mid Penn common stock, applying the price to 2020 earnings multiples range of 12.0x to 22.0x referred to above and a discount rate of 12.69%.

Sandler O’Neill also performed two analyses that estimated the net present value per share of Scottdale common stock under various circumstances. The first analysis assumed Scottdale performed in accordance with financial projections for the years ending December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2020, as provided by the senior management of Mid Penn. (“Scottdale Stand Alone NPV Analysis”). Sandler O’Neill used the same assumptions as the Scottdale Stand Alone NPV Analysis for the second net present value analysis, but also included assumptions related to after-tax cost savings and certain balance sheet restructuring transactions, as provided by the senior management of Mid Penn (“Scottdale Adjusted NPV Analysis”).

Table of Contents

For both the Scottdale Stand Alone NPV Analysis and Scottdale Adjusted NPV Analysis, to approximate the terminal value of Scottdale common stock at December 31, 2020, Sandler O’Neill applied price to 2020 earnings multiples ranging from 11.0x to 21.0x and multiples of December 31, 2020 tangible book value ranging from 80% to 180%. The terminal values were then discounted to present values using different discount rates ranging from 11.0% to 21.0%, which were chosen to reflect different assumptions regarding required rates of return of holders or prospective buyers of Scottdale common stock. As illustrated in the following tables, the Scottdale Stand Alone NPV Analysis indicated an imputed range of values per share of Scottdale common stock of $552.60 to $695.06 when applying multiples of earnings and the Scottdale Adjusted NPV Analysis indicated an imputed range of values per share of Scottdale common stock of $1,003.46 to $1,686.73 when applying multiples of earnings. In addition, as illustrated in the following tables, the Scottdale Stand Alone NPV Analysis indicated an imputed range of values per share of Scottdale common stock of $673.46 to $1,054.29 when applying multiples of tangible book value and the Scottdale Adjusted NPV Analysis indicated an imputed range of values per share of Scottdale common stock of $767.57 to $1,298.25 when applying multiples of tangible book value.

In connection with its analyses, Sandler O’Neill considered and discussed with the Mid Penn board of directors how the present value analyses would be affected by changes in the underlying assumptions. Sandler O’Neill noted that the net present value analysis is a widely used valuation methodology, but the results of such methodology are highly dependent upon the numerous assumptions that must be made, and the results thereof are not necessarily indicative of actual values or future results.

Pro Forma Merger Analysis

Sandler O’Neill analyzed certain potential pro forma effects of the merger on Mid Penn assuming the merger closes at the end of the third calendar quarter of 2017. Sandler O’Neill utilized the following information and assumptions: (i) internal financial projections for Mid Penn for the years ending December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2020, as provided by the senior management of Mid Penn, (ii) financial projections for Scottdale for the years ending December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2020, as provided by the senior management of Mid Penn, and (iii) certain assumptions relating to transaction expenses, purchase accounting adjustments, cost

savings and certain balance sheet restructuring transactions, as provided by the senior management of Mid Penn. The analysis indicated that the merger could be dilutive to Mid Penn’s earnings per share (excluding one-time transaction costs and expenses) in the years ending December 31, 2018, December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2020, and accretive to Mid Penn’s estimated tangible book value per share at close.

In connection with this analysis, Sandler O’Neill considered and discussed with the Mid Penn board of directors how the analysis would be affected by changes in the underlying assumptions and noted that the actual results achieved by the combined company may vary from projected results and the variations may be material.

Sandler O’Neill’s Relationship

Sandler O’Neill has acted as Mid Penn’s financial advisor in connection with the merger and will receive a fee for its services in an amount equal to $350,000, a significant portion of which is contingent upon the closing of the merger. Sandler O’Neill received a $100,000 fee upon rendering its fairness opinion to the Mid Penn board of directors, which opinion fee will be credited in full towards the portion of the transaction fee which will become payable to Sandler O’Neill on the day of closing of the merger. Mid Penn has also agreed to indemnify Sandler O’Neill against certain claims and liabilities arising out of Sandler O’Neill’s engagement and to reimburse Sandler O’Neill for certain of its out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with Sandler O’Neill’s engagement.

Sandler O’Neill did not provide any other investment banking services to Mid Penn in the two years preceding the date of its opinion nor did Sandler O’Neill provide any investment banking services to Scottdale in the two years preceding the date of Sandler O’Neill’s opinion. In the ordinary course of Sandler O’Neill’s business as a broker-dealer, Sandler O’Neill may purchase securities from and sell securities to Mid Penn, Scottdale and their respective affiliates. Sandler O’Neill may also actively trade the equity and debt securities of Mid Penn, Scottdale or their respective affiliates for its own account and for the accounts of its customers.

Board of Directors and Management of Mid Penn Following Completion of the Merger

Following completion of the merger, the then current directors and executive officers of Mid Penn will continue to operate in their existing capacity at that time. Additionally, Mid Penn will appoint Donald F. Kiefer, or a mutually agreed upon qualified replacement candidate, to serve on the Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank boards of directors.

Scottdale Shareholders Have Dissenters’ Rights in the Merger

Dissenters’ rights are statutory rights that enable shareholders who object to extraordinary transactions, such as mergers, to demand that the corporation pay such shareholders the fair value of their shares as determined by a court in a judicial proceeding instead of receiving the consideration offered to shareholders in connection with the extraordinary transaction. Dissenters’ rights are not available in all circumstances and exceptions to those rights are set forth in the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law (“PBCL”). The term “fair value” in this instance means the value of a share of Scottdale’s common stock immediately before the day of the merger, taking into account all relevant factors, but excluding any appreciation or depreciation in anticipation of the merger.

Scottdale shareholders are entitled to dissenters’ rights in connection with the merger.

Set forth below is a summary of the terms under the PBCL, describing the steps that must be taken in order to exercise dissenting shareholder rights. Any Scottdale shareholder considering exercising the shareholder’s right to dissent from the proposed action and receive the fair value of his shares should read both this summary and the full text of the law, which is attached hereto as Annex D. Written notices or demands that are required concerning the exercise of dissenters’ rights should be sent to The Scottdale Bank & Trust Company, 150 Pittsburgh Street, Scottdale, Pennsylvania 15683, Attention: Corporate Secretary or at such other address as may be indicated in subsequent instructions related to the exercise of such rights.

 

69


Table of Contents

Any Scottdale shareholder who wishes to dissent and exercise rights to an appraisal must:

 

    file a written notice of intention to demand payment of the fair value of his or her shares (if the merger is completed), prior to the vote of shareholders on the merger at the special meeting;

 

    make no change in the shareholder’s beneficial ownership of stock from the date of the written notice through the day of the merger; and

 

    not vote his or her stock for approval of the merger.

Voting in favor of the merger constitutes a waiver of dissenters’ rights of appraisal. Further, neither a proxy marked against approval of the merger nor a vote at the special meeting against approval of the merger satisfies the necessary written notice of intention to dissent. A separate written notice must be filed with Scottdale prior to the vote of shareholders on the merger, as described above.

If the merger is approved by the required vote of shareholders, Scottdale will mail a notice to all dissenters who gave due notice of intention to demand payment of fair value and who did not vote for approval of the plan of merger. The notice will state where and when the dissenting shareholder must deliver a written demand for payment and where certificates for stock should be deposited in order to obtain payment. The notice will include a form for demanding payment and a copy of the law. The time set for receipt of the demand for payment and deposit of stock certificates will be not less than 30 days from the date of mailing of the notice.

Any dissenting Scottdale shareholder who wishes to exercise appraisal rights must take each step in the indicated order and in strict compliance with the statute to preserve dissenters’ rights. Any such shareholder who fails to follow the steps will lose his or her right to dissent and will, instead, receive the merger consideration.

Promptly after the merger, Mid Penn will send dissenters, who have timely filed the demand for payment and deposited their stock certificates, the amount that Mid Penn estimates to be the fair value of the stock. The remittance or notice will be accompanied by:

 

    a closing balance sheet and statement of income of Scottdale for a fiscal year ending not more than 16 months before the date of remittance or notice together with the latest available interim financial statements;

 

    a statement of Mid Penn’s estimate of the fair value of Scottdale common stock; and

 

    a notice of the right of the dissenter to demand supplemental payment, accompanied by a copy of the law.

If a dissenting shareholder believes that the amount stated or remitted by Mid Penn is less than the fair value of the stock, the dissenter may send an estimate of the fair value of the stock to Mid Penn. If Mid Penn remits payment of the estimated value of a dissenter’s stock and the dissenter does not file his or her own estimate within 30 days after Mid Penn mailed its remittance, the dissenter will be entitled to no more than the amount remitted by Mid Penn.

If any demands for payment remain unsettled within 60 days after the latest to occur of: (1) the merger, (2) the timely receipt of any shareholder demands for payment, or (3) the timely receipt of any estimates by dissenters of the fair value, then, Mid Penn may file an application, in the Court of Common Pleas of Dauphin County, requesting that the court determine the fair value of the stock. If this happens, all dissenters, no matter where they reside, whose demands have not been settled, shall be made parties to the proceeding. In addition, a copy of the application will be delivered to each dissenter.

If Mid Penn fails to file the application, then any dissenter, on behalf of all dissenters who have made a demand and who have not settled their claim may file an application in the name of Scottdale at any time within the 30-day period after the expiration of the 60-day period and request that the Dauphin County Court determine the

Table of Contents

fair value of the shares. The fair value determined by the court may, but need not, equal the dissenters’ estimates of fair value. If no dissenter files an application, then each dissenter entitled to do so shall be paid Mid Penn’s estimate of the fair value of the common stock and no more, and may bring an action to recover any amount not previously remitted, plus interest at a rate the court finds fair and equitable.

The costs and expenses of any valuation proceedings in court, including the reasonable compensation and expenses of any appraiser appointed by the court to recommend a decision on the issue of fair value, will be determined by the court and assessed against Scottdale except that any part of the costs and expenses may be apportioned and assessed by the court against all or any of the dissenters who are parties and whose action in demanding supplemental payment the court finds to be arbitrary, vexatious or in bad faith. In addition, dissenting shareholders generally will be responsible for their own costs and expenses, including, without limitation, the fees and expenses of their own legal counsel and experts.

Regulatory Approvals Required for the Merger

The merger is subject to the approval of the PDB under the Pennsylvania Banking Code (the “Banking Code”) and the FDIC under the federal Bank Merger Act. The merger is subject to the approval of the FRB under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHC Act”).

Lawrence Keister & Company must submit an application to the FRB for its acquisition of more than 10% of the outstanding shares of Mid Penn common stock pursuant to the merger under the BHC Act. The FRB will consider a number of factors. Applicable regulations require publication of notice of the application and an opportunity for the public to comment on the application in writing and to request a hearing.

In reviewing an application for approval of a merger, the PDB and the FDIC will consider, among other things, whether the plan of merger adequately protects the interests of the depositors, other creditors and shareholders, and whether the bank merger would be consistent with adequate and sound banking practices and in the public interest on the basis of the financial history and condition of the banks involved, their future prospects, the character of their management, the potential effect of the bank merger on competition, and the convenience and needs of the areas primarily to be served by the resulting institution.

The bank merger of Scottdale with and into Mid Penn Bank is also subject to approval by the FDIC under the federal Bank Merger Act and by the PDB under the Banking Code. In general, the factors considered by the FDIC and the PDB to approve the bank merger are similar to the factors described above relating to the merger.

The merger will not proceed in the absence of regulatory approvals. Although neither Mid Penn nor Scottdale knows of any reason why regulatory approval would not be obtained in a timely manner, neither Mid Penn nor Scottdale can be certain when such approvals will be obtained or if they will be obtained.

The parties are not aware of any other governmental approvals or actions that may be required to consummate the merger. If any other approval or action is required, it is contemplated that such approval or action would be sought. There can be no assurance, however, that any additional approvals or actions will be obtained.

Investigation by Scottdale’s Special Committee

Shortly after the parties entered into the merger agreement, an employee and board member at Scottdale presented information to management of Scottdale and Mid Penn regarding a stock trade in the last quarter of 2016 by an individual who was alleged to have access to material inside information. This was relayed to the full Scottdale board of directors which then took action by forming the special committee to investigate the allegations. The special committee was authorized to, and did, retain independent counsel, M&M, to assist in the investigation. M&M had no prior relationship with Scottdale.

During the course of the investigation, M&M reviewed written materials and records, electronic communications and conducted interviews with Scottdale employees, officers and directors. M&M also reviewed two trades in

addition to the one described above. M&M then presented its findings to the special committee and worked with the special committee in preparing its report to the full Scottdale board of directors. Of the trades that were reviewed, the special committee communicated to Scottdale and Mid Penn that, two shares, acquired from a retiring Scottdale employee (not the trade that formed the basis of the original investigation), appeared to have been transacted in violation of applicable federal securities laws. As to that trade, the special committee report identified multiple mitigating circumstances including that this transaction was consistent with ordinary course of conduct for stock purchases from retiring employees and the purchaser, on its own volition, immediately after announcement of the merger, remitted additional cash to the seller to increase the amount paid to equal the stock value identified in the merger agreement.

Information on this matter has been provided to the independent auditors of both Scottdale and Mid Penn, and Scottdale has reported the matter to the SEC.

INTERESTS OF SCOTTDALE’S DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS IN THE MERGER

In considering the recommendation of the Scottdale board of directors that you vote to approve the merger agreement, Scottdale shareholders should be aware that Scottdale’s directors and executive officers have interests in the merger that are different from, or in addition to, those of Scottdale shareholders generally. The Scottdale board was aware of and considered those interests, among other matters, in reaching its decisions to (1) approve and adopt the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby and (2) resolve to recommend the approval of the merger agreement to Scottdale shareholders. Scottdale’s shareholders should take these interests into account in deciding whether to vote “FOR” the proposal to approve the merger agreement. These interests are described in more detail below, and certain of them are quantified in the narrative below and the table below.

Indemnification

The merger agreement provides that for a period of six years after the effective time, Mid Penn will indemnify and hold harmless all present and former directors, officers and employees of Scottdale and its subsidiaries against all costs and liabilities arising out of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, or employee of Scottdale or any of its subsidiaries and pertaining to matters, actions, or omissions existing or occurring at or prior to the effective time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and will also advance expenses to such persons to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law; however, if required, such person provides an undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification.

Subject to certain limitations, the merger agreement also requires Mid Penn to maintain, for a period of six years after the completion of the merger, Scottdale’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy, or policies with a substantially comparable insurer of at least the same coverage and amounts and containing terms and conditions that are no less advantageous to the insured, with respect to claims arising from facts or events that occurred at or prior to the completion of the merger. For additional information see the section entitled “The Merger Agreement—Indemnification and Insurance” beginning on page [●] of this proxy statement/prospectus.

Compensation of the Scottdale Board of Directors

Scottdale board members currently receive a per meeting fee of $1,200. The total amount of Scottdale director fees for the previous three years is listed below:

 

2014

   $ 53,875  

2015

THE MERGER AGREEMENT

The following describes certain aspects of the merger, including material provisions of the merger agreement. The following description of the merger agreement is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the merger agreement, which is attached to this joint proxy statement/prospectus as Annex A and is incorporated by reference in this joint proxy statement/prospectus. We urge you to read the merger agreement carefully and in its entirety, as it is the legal document governing this merger.

Terms of the Merger

Each of the Scottdale board of directors and the Mid Penn board of directors has unanimously adopted the agreement and plan of merger, which provides for the merger of Scottdale with and into Mid Penn Bank. Mid Penn Bank will be the surviving entity in the merger. Each share of Mid Penn common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to completion of the merger will remain issued and outstanding as one share of common stock of Mid Penn. Each share of Scottdale common stock issued and outstanding at the effective time of the merger (with the exception of Company-Owned Stock, as defined below) will be converted into shares of Mid Penn common stock or cash, as described below. See “—Consideration to Be Received in the Merger.” Company-Owned Stock means shares of Scottdale stock held in treasury by Scottdale or any of its subsidiaries or any shares of Scottdale stock held by Mid Penn or any of its subsidiaries, other than in a fiduciary or agency capacity or as a result of debts previously contracted. Each share of Scottdale common stock held as Company-Owned Stock immediately prior to the effective time of the merger will be canceled and retired and no consideration will be issued in exchange for Company-Owned Stock. Mid Penn does not own any shares of common stock of Scottdale.

The Mid Penn articles of incorporation will be the articles of incorporation, and the Mid Penn bylaws will be the bylaws of the combined entity after completion of the merger. The merger agreement provides that Mid Penn may change the method of effecting the merger if and to the extent it deems such change to be necessary, appropriate, or desirable. No such change will alter the amount or kind of merger consideration to be provided under the merger agreement, adversely affect the tax treatment of the merger as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, or materially impede or delay completion of the merger.

Closing and Effective Time of the Merger

The merger will become effective as set forth in the articles of merger to be filed with the Department of State of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. It currently is anticipated that the effective time of the merger will occur by the fourth quarter of 2017, but we cannot guarantee when or if the merger will be completed.

Consideration to Be Received in the Merger

As a result of the merger each Scottdale shareholder will have the right, with respect to each share of Scottdale common stock held (excluding Company-Owned Stock), to elect to receive either 38.88 to 44.86 shares of Mid Penn common stock or $1,166.00 in cash.

Under the terms of the merger agreement, at least 90% of the total number of shares of Scottdale common stock outstanding at the effective time of the merger (excluding Company-Owned Stock) will be converted into stock consideration, and the remaining outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock (excluding Company-Owned Stock) will be converted into cash consideration. To the extent necessary to satisfy these relative proration types of consideration, certain allocation and proration procedures, described below in “ —Proration Procedures,” will be used.

The value of the cash consideration is fixed at $1,166.00. However, the implied value of the stock consideration will fluctuate as the market price of Mid Penn common stock fluctuates before the completion of the merger. This price will not be known at the time of the Scottdale special meeting and may be more or less than the

 

73


Table of Contents

current price of Mid Penn common stock or the price of Mid Penn common stock at the time of the Scottdale special meeting or at the time an election is made, and the implied value of the stock consideration may be more or less than the value of the cash consideration at the completion of the merger.

Mid Penn will initially make available and mail the election form to Scottdale shareholders under separate cover concurrently with or immediately after the mailing of this joint proxy statement/prospectus. The election deadline will be the date that is five business days prior to the closing date for the merger. Scottdale shareholders must return their properly completed and signed election form to the exchange agent prior to the election deadline. If you are a Scottdale shareholder and you do not return your election form by the election deadline or improperly complete or do not sign your election form, you will receive cash, shares of Mid Penn common stock or a mixture of cash and shares of Mid Penn common stock based on what is available after giving effect to the valid elections made by other stockholders pursuant to the proration adjustment described below.

If you are a Scottdale shareholder, you may specify different elections with respect to different shares held by you. For example, if you have 100 shares, you could make a cash election with respect to 50 shares and a stock election with respect to the other 50 shares.

Cash Election

The merger agreement provides that each Scottdale shareholder who makes a valid cash election will have the right to receive, in exchange for each share of Scottdale common stock held by such holder, cash equal to $1,166.00 without interest, which is referred to as the “cash consideration.” Because the maximum percentage of the total number of shares of Scottdale common stock to be converted into cash is 10%, however, a Scottdale shareholder who makes a cash election may receive a mix of cash and stock.

Stock Election

The merger agreement provides that each Scottdale shareholder who makes a valid stock election will have the right to receive, in exchange for each share of Scottdale common stock held, 38.88 to 44.86 shares of Mid Penn common stock, which is referred to as the “stock consideration.” Because the minimum percentage of the total number of shares of Scottdale common stock to be converted into Mid Penn common stock is 90%, a Scottdale shareholder who makes a stock election will receive stock.

No fractional shares of Mid Penn common stock will be issued to any holder of Scottdale common stock upon completion of the merger. For each fractional share that would otherwise be issued, Mid Penn will pay cash in an amount equal to the fraction multiplied by the closing price for a share of Mid Penn common stock as reported on Nasdaq for the trading day immediately preceding the closing date. No interest will be paid or accrued on cash payable to holders in lieu of fractional shares.

Non-Election Shares

If you are a Scottdale shareholder and you do not make an election to receive cash or Mid Penn common stock in the merger, your elections are not received by the exchange agent by the election deadline, your forms of election are improperly completed and/or are not signed, you will be deemed to not have made an “election.” Shareholders not making an election will receive merger consideration depending on, and after giving effect to, the number of elections that have been made by other Scottdale shareholders using the proration adjustment described below.

Proration Procedures

It is unlikely that elections will be made in the exact proportions provided for in the merger agreement. As a result, the merger agreement describes procedures to be followed if Scottdale shareholders in the aggregate elect to receive less of the Mid Penn common stock than Mid Penn has agreed to issue.

 

74


Table of Contents

If Scottdale shareholders elect to receive fewer shares of Mid Penn common stock than Mid Penn has agreed to issue in the merger, then all Scottdale shareholders who have elected to receive Mid Penn common stock will receive Mid Penn common stock and those shareholders who elected to receive cash or who have made no election will be treated in the following manner:

 

    If the number of shares held by Scottdale shareholders who have made no election is sufficient to make up the shortfall in the number of Mid Penn shares that Mid Penn is required to issue, then all Scottdale shareholders who elected cash will receive cash, and those shareholders who made no election will receive both cash and Mid Penn common stock in such proportion as is necessary to make up the shortfall.

 

    If the number of shares held by Scottdale shareholders who have made no election is insufficient to make up the shortfall, then all Scottdale shareholders who made no election will receive Mid Penn common stock and those Scottdale shareholders who elected to receive cash will receive cash and Mid Penn common stock in such proportion as is necessary to make up the shortfall.

Neither Mid Penn nor Scottdale is making any recommendation as to whether Scottdale shareholders should elect to receive Mid Penn common stock, only cash or a combination of both types of consideration. Neither Mid Penn nor Scottdale is making any recommendation as to whether Scottdale shareholders should elect to receive a specific ratio of cash or Mid Penn common stock. Each Scottdale shareholder must make his or her own decision with respect to election to receive Mid Penn common stock, cash or a combination thereof for his or her shares of Scottdale stock. In addition, because the tax consequences of receiving cash will differ from the tax consequences of receiving Mid Penn common stock, each shareholder should carefully read the discussion included below under “Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger” (page [●]) and consult their personal tax advisor.

Conversion of Shares; Letter of Transmittal; Exchange of Certificates

The conversion of Scottdale common stock into the right to receive the merger consideration will occur automatically at the effective time of the merger. As soon as reasonably practicable after completion of the merger but in any event within five business days, the exchange agent will mail to each Scottdale shareholder who has not submitted an election form, a letter of transmittal with instructions on how to exchange certificates representing shares of Scottdale common stock for the merger consideration, to be received in the merger pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement. You will be required to submit your certificates before you will receive your merger consideration. If a certificate for Scottdale common stock has been lost, stolen or destroyed, the exchange agent will issue the consideration properly payable under the merger agreement upon receipt of appropriate evidence as to that loss, theft or destruction, appropriate evidence as to the ownership of that certificate by the claimant, and appropriate and customary indemnification. [●] will be the exchange agent in the merger and will receive forms of election, exchange certificates for the merger consideration and perform other duties as explained in the merger agreement.

Dividends and Distributions

Until Scottdale common stock certificates are surrendered for exchange, any dividends or other distributions declared after the effective time of the merger with respect to Mid Penn common stock into which shares of Scottdale common stock may have been converted will accrue but will not be paid. Mid Penn will pay to former Scottdale shareholders any unpaid dividends or other distributions, without interest, only after they have surrendered their Scottdale stock certificates.

Pursuant to the merger agreement, prior to the effective time of the merger, Scottdale and its subsidiaries may not declare or pay any dividend or distribution on its capital stock, except for the payment of an annual dividend subject to certain restrictions based upon Scottdale performance. In addition, Scottdale must consult with Mid Penn regarding the record dates and the payment dates relating to any dividends in respect of Scottdale common stock.

These representations and warranties were made as of specific dates, may be subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by Mid Penn and Scottdale in connection with negotiating the terms of the merger agreement (including by reference to information contained in disclosure schedules delivered by the parties under the merger agreement), and may have been included in the merger agreement for the purpose of allocating risk between Mid Penn and Scottdale rather than to establish matters as facts.

Covenants and Agreements

Agreement Not to Solicit Other Offers

Scottdale has agreed that it, its officers, directors, employees, representatives, agents or affiliates will not, directly or indirectly:

    any transaction pursuant to which any third party or group acquires or would acquire (whether through sale, lease or other disposition), directly or indirectly, any assets of Scottdale representing, in the aggregate, fifteen percent or more of the assets of Scottdale on a consolidated basis;

 

    any issuance, sale or other disposition of (including by way of merger, consolidation, share exchange or any similar transaction) securities (or options, rights or warrants to purchase or securities convertible into, such securities) representing ten percent or more of the votes attached to the outstanding securities of Scottdale;

 

    any tender offer or exchange offer that, if consummated, would result in any third party or group beneficially owning ten percent or more of any class of equity securities of Scottdale; or

 

    any transaction that is similar in form, substance or purpose to any of the foregoing transactions, or any combination of the foregoing.

Scottdale may, however, participate in discussions with, and may furnish information to, a third party in connection with a bona fide unsolicited acquisition proposal if, and only if:

 

    Scottdale has received a bona fide unsolicited written acquisition proposal that did not result from a breach of the merger agreement;

 

    Scottdale’s board of directors determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and independent financial advisor, that the acquisition proposal is, or is reasonably likely to lead to, a superior proposal (as defined below);

 

    Scottdale has provided Mid Penn with at least one business day’s prior notice of its determination that the acquisition proposal is, or is reasonably likely to lead to, a superior proposal; and

 

    prior to furnishing or providing access to any information or data with respect to Scottdale or otherwise relating to an acquisition proposal, Scottdale receives from the third party making the proposal a confidentiality agreement on terms no less favorable to Mid Penn than the terms of the existing confidentiality agreement between Scottdale and Mid Penn and provides a copy of the same to Mid Penn.

 

81


Table of Contents

Scottdale has also agreed to promptly provide to Mid Penn any non-public information about Scottdale that it provides to the third party making the proposal, to the extent such information was not previously provided to Mid Penn.

The term “superior proposal,” as defined under the merger agreement, means any bona fide, unsolicited written acquisition proposal made by a person other than Mid Penn, which the Scottdale board of directors determines in its good faith judgment, after considering the advice of its outside legal counsel and financial advisor:

 

    would, if consummated, result in the acquisition of all, but not less than all, of the issued and outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock or all, or substantially all, of the assets of Scottdale on a consolidated basis;

 

    would result in a transaction that involves consideration to the holders of Scottdale common stock that is more favorable, from a financial point of view, than the consideration to be paid to such holders by Mid Penn under the merger agreement, considering, among other things, the nature of the consideration being offered and any material regulatory approvals or other risks associated with the timing of the proposed transaction beyond or in addition to those specifically contemplated hereby, and which proposal is not conditioned upon obtaining additional financing and is, in light of the other terms of such proposal, more favorable to Scottdale than the merger and the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement; and

 

    is reasonably likely to be completed on the terms proposed, taking into account all legal, financial, regulatory and other aspects of the proposal.

In addition, Scottdale has agreed that it will not:

 

    withdraw, qualify or modify, or propose to withdraw, qualify or modify, in a manner adverse to Mid Penn, its recommendation to its shareholders to approve the merger agreement or make any statement, filing or release, in connection with the Scottdale special meeting of shareholders or otherwise, inconsistent with its recommendation to its shareholders to approve the merger agreement (it being understood that taking a neutral position or no position with respect to an acquisition proposal other than the Mid Penn merger shall be considered an adverse modification of its recommendation to its shareholders), except to the extent otherwise permitted and described below;

 

    approve or recommend, or publicly propose to approve or recommend, any acquisition proposal other than with respect to the Mid Penn merger; or

 

    enter into (or cause Scottdale to enter into) any letter of intent or other agreement relating to an acquisition proposal other than with respect to the Mid Penn merger or requiring Scottdale to fail to consummate the merger.

Up until the time of the Scottdale shareholder meeting, however, Scottdale may withdraw, qualify or modify in a manner adverse to Mid Penn its recommendation to Scottdale shareholders to approve the merger agreement, or take any of the other actions listed above in this paragraph with respect to another acquisition proposal if but only if:

 

    the Scottdale board of directors has reasonably determined in good faith, after consultation with and having considered the advice of its outside legal counsel and financial advisor that the failure to take such actions would be inconsistent with the board’s fiduciary duties to Scottdale’s shareholders under applicable law;

 

    it has provided at least three business days’ notice to Mid Penn that a bona fide unsolicited proposal constitutes a superior proposal; and

 

    after taking into account any adjusted, modified or amended terms as may have been committed to by Mid Penn in writing, the Scottdale board of directors has again in good faith determined that the other acquisition proposal constitutes a superior proposal.

Expenses and Fees

In general, each of Mid Penn and Scottdale will be responsible for all expenses incurred by it in connection with the negotiation and completion of the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, except that Mid Penn and Scottdale shall split the costs of printing and mailing the joint proxy statement/prospectus for their respective special meetings.

Indemnification and Insurance

The merger agreement requires Mid Penn to indemnify Scottdale’s and its subsidiaries’ current and former directors, officers and employees to the fullest extent as would have been permitted under Pennsylvania law and the Scottdale articles of incorporation or the Scottdale bylaws or similar governing documents. The merger agreement provides that in the event of any threatened or actual claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation in which any person who is or has been a director, officer or employee of Scottdale or is threatened to be made party based in whole or in part on, or arising in whole or in part out of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer or employee of Scottdale or any of its subsidiaries or predecessors and pertaining to any matter of fact arising, existing or occurring at or before the effective time of the merger (including the merger and the merger agreement), Mid Penn will defend against and respond thereto.

Mid Penn has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless each such indemnified party against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees), judgments, and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any such threatened or actual claim, action, suit proceeding or investigation. The merger agreement also requires that Mid Penn provide advancement of expenses to, all past and present officers, directors and employees of Scottdale and its subsidiaries in their capacities as such against all such losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses, liabilities, judgments or amounts paid in settlement to the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws and Scottdale’s articles of incorporation and bylaws.

The merger agreement provides that Mid Penn will maintain for a period of six years after completion of the merger Scottdale’s current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies, or policies of at least the same coverage and amount and containing terms and conditions that are not less advantageous than the current policy, with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to the effective time of the merger.

Conditions to Complete the Merger

Completion of the merger is subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions, none of which may be waived, including:

 

    the adoption of the merger agreement by the Mid Penn and Scottdale shareholders;

 

    the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this joint proxy statement/prospectus is a part with respect to the Mid Penn common stock to be issued in the merger under the Securities Act and the absence of any stop order or proceedings initiated or threatened by the SEC for that purpose;

 

    the receipt by each of Mid Penn and Scottdale of a legal opinion with respect to certain United States federal income tax consequences of the merger;

 

    the receipt and effectiveness of all required governmental and other approvals, authorizations and consents on terms and conditions that would not have a material adverse effect on Mid Penn or Scottdale, and the expiration of all related waiting periods required to complete the merger;

 

    the absence of any law, statute, regulation, judgment, decree, injunction or other order in effect by any court or other governmental entity that prohibits completion of the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement; and

 

    the approval for listing on Nasdaq of the shares of Mid Penn common stock issuable in the merger.

 

83


Table of Contents

Each of Mid Penn’s and Scottdale’s obligations to complete the merger is also separately subject to the satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions including:

 

    the absence of a material adverse effect on the other party;

 

    the truth and correctness of the representations and warranties of each other party in the merger agreement, subject generally to the materiality standard provided in the merger agreement, and the performance by each other party in all material respects of their obligations under the merger agreement and the receipt by each party of certificates from the other party to that effect; and

 

    Mid Penn having delivered the merger consideration to the exchange agent.

We cannot provide assurance as to when or if all of the conditions to the merger can or will be satisfied or waived by the appropriate party. As of the date of this joint proxy statement/prospectus, we have no reason to believe that any of these conditions will not be satisfied.

Termination of the Merger Agreement

The merger agreement can be terminated at any time prior to completion by mutual consent or by either party in the following circumstances:

 

    if there is a breach by the other party that would cause the failure of the closing conditions, unless the breach is capable of being, and is, cured within 30 days of notice of the breach and the terminating party is not itself in material breach;

 

    if the merger has not been completed by March 31, 2018, unless the failure to complete the merger by that date was due to the terminating party’s material breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement under the merger agreement;

 

    if any of the required regulatory approvals are denied (and the denial is final and non-appealable);

 

    if any court of competent jurisdiction or governmental authority issues an order, decree, ruling or takes any other action restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the merger (and such order, decree, ruling or action is final and non-appealable); or

 

    if the shareholders of either Mid Penn or Scottdale fail to adopt the merger agreement at their respective special meetings.

In addition, Mid Penn’s board of directors may terminate the merger agreement if the Scottdale board of directors receives a superior proposal and enters into a letter of intent, agreement in principle or an acquisition agreement with respect to such proposal, withdraws its recommendation of the merger agreement, fails to make such a recommendation or modifies or qualifies its recommendation, in a manner adverse to Mid Penn, or has otherwise made a determination to accept such proposal.

Further, Scottdale’s board of directors may terminate the merger agreement if Scottdale has received a superior proposal and has made a determination to accept such proposal.

Scottdale may also terminate the merger agreement within five days after the later of (i) the date on which all regulatory approvals, and waivers, if applicable, necessary for consummation of the merger and the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement have been received or (ii) the date of the meeting of Scottdale shareholders (the “Determination Date”), if Scottdale’s board determines that each of the following have occurred:

 

    the average of the daily closing sale prices of a share of Mid Penn common stock as reported on Nasdaq for the 20 consecutive trading days immediately preceding the Determination Date (the “Determination Date Market Value”) is less than 80% of the closing sale price of Mid Penn common stock on the last trading date before the date of the merger agreement; and

 

84


Table of Contents
    the decrease in the price of Mid Penn common stock is 20% greater than the decrease in the SNL Small Cap Bank & Thrift Index during the same period.

However, if Scottdale chooses to exercise this termination right, Mid Penn has the option, within five business days of receipt of notice from Scottdale, to adjust the merger consideration and prevent termination under this provision.

Effect of Termination. If the merger agreement is terminated, it will become void, and there will be no liability on the part of Mid Penn or Scottdale, except that both Mid Penn and Scottdale will remain liable for any willful breach of the merger agreement and designated provisions of the merger agreement, including the payment of fees and expenses, and the confidential treatment of information and publicity restrictions, will survive the termination.

Termination Fee

Scottdale will pay Mid Penn a termination fee of $2,365,500 in the event that the merger agreement is terminated:

 

    by Mid Penn because Scottdale has received an alternative acquisition proposal, and Scottdale (1) enters into a letter of intent, agreement in principle or an acquisition agreement with respect to the alternative acquisition proposal, (2) fails to make, withdraws, modifies or qualifies its recommendation of the merger agreement in a manner adverse to Mid Penn, or (3) delivers a written notice to Mid Penn of its determination to accept the alternative acquisition proposal; or

 

    by Scottdale, if Scottdale receives an alternative acquisition proposal and has made a determination to accept the alternative acquisition proposal.

Expense Reimbursement Fee

Scottdale will pay Mid Penn an expense reimbursement fee equal to the lesser of (i) the amount of Mid Penn’s actual and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the merger agreement, or (ii) $500,000 if the merger is terminated by Mid Penn as a result of the failure of the shareholders of Scottdale to approve the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement and, prior to the Scottdale shareholders’ meeting, any person shall have proposed or publicly announced an acquisition proposal for Scottdale.

Amendment, Waiver and Extension of the Merger Agreement

Subject to applicable law, the parties may amend the merger agreement by written agreement between Scottdale and Mid Penn executed in the same manner as the merger agreement.

At any time prior to the completion of the merger, each of the parties, by action taken or authorized by their respective board of directors, to the extent legally allowed, may:

 

    extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other party;

 

    waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other party; or

 

    waive compliance by the other party with any of the other agreements or conditions contained in the merger agreement.

However, after any approval of the transactions contemplated by the agreement and plan of merger by the shareholders of Scottdale and Mid Penn, there may not be, without further approval of such shareholders, any amendment which reduces the amount or value or changes the form of consideration to be delivered to Scottdale shareholders.

ACCOUNTING TREATMENT

Mid Penn will account for the merger using the acquisition method under US GAAP. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities, including executory contracts and other commitments, of Scottdale will be recorded, as of completion of the merger, at their respective fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired will be recorded as goodwill to the extent not allocated to core deposit or other intangibles. Goodwill resulting from the merger will not be amortized but will be reviewed for impairment at least annually. Core deposits and other intangibles with finite useful lives recorded in connection with the merger will be amortized. If the net assets acquired exceed the purchase price, the resulting difference will be recorded as a bargain purchase gain.

Financial statements and reported results of operations of Mid Penn issued after completion of the merger will not be restated retroactively to reflect the historical financial position or results of operations of Scottdale.

MATERIAL UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE MERGER

The following discussion addresses the material United States federal income tax consequences of the merger to a Scottdale shareholder who holds shares of Scottdale common stock as a capital asset. This discussion is based upon the Internal Revenue Code, Treasury regulations promulgated under the Internal Revenue Code, judicial authorities, published positions of the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) and other applicable authorities, all as in effect on the date of this discussion and all of which are subject to change (possibly with retroactive effect) and to differing interpretations. It is also based upon representations and facts provided by each of Mid Penn and Scottdale to Stevens & Lee, P.C. Future legislative, judicial, or administrative changes or interpretations which may or may not be retroactive, or the failure of any such facts or representations to be true, accurate and complete, may affect the statements and conclusions described in this discussion.

This discussion is not intended to be a complete description of all of the United States federal income tax consequences of the merger. Further, this discussion does not address all aspects of United States federal income taxation that may be relevant to Scottdale shareholders in light of their particular circumstances and does not address aspects of United States federal income taxation that may be applicable to Scottdale shareholders subject to special treatment under the Internal Revenue Code (including but not limited to banks, financial institutions, trusts, estates, persons who hold shares of Scottdale common stock in an individual retirement account (IRA), 401(k) plans or similar tax-favored accounts, tax-exempt organizations, insurance companies, dealers or brokers in securities or foreign currencies, traders in securities that elect to use a mark-to-market method of accounting, persons holding Scottdale common stock through a pass-through entity, Scottdale shareholders who hold their shares of Scottdale common stock as part of a hedge, straddle, conversion transaction or constructive sale transaction, Scottdale shareholders who acquired their shares of Scottdale common stock pursuant to the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation, persons that hold options or warrants to acquire Scottdale common stock, persons whose functional currency for United States federal income tax purposes is not the United States dollar, persons who are United States expatriates and holders who are not United States persons, within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code). In addition, the discussion does not address any aspect of state, local or foreign taxation. No assurance can be given that the IRS would not assert, or that a court would not sustain a position contrary to any of the tax aspects set forth below.

No ruling has been or will be requested from the Internal Revenue Service regarding the tax consequences of the merger. Moreover, the opinion of Stevens & Lee described in this discussion is not binding on the Internal Revenue Service, and this opinion would not prevent the Internal Revenue Service from challenging the United States federal income tax treatment of the merger. Because of the complexities of the tax laws in general, and the complexities of the tax consequences associated with the receipt of cash in the merger in particular, holders of Scottdale common stock are encouraged to consult their tax advisors with respect to the particular United States federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences of the merger. This section is not intended to be tax advice to any shareholder.

Table of Contents

Tax Opinion of Stevens & Lee

The closing of the merger is conditioned, in part, upon the receipt by Mid Penn of the opinion of Stevens & Lee P.C., and the receipt by Scottdale of the opinion of Tucker Arensberg, P.C., each dated as of the effective date of the merger, substantially to the effect that, on the basis of facts, representations and assumptions set forth or referred to in the opinion (including factual representations contained in certificates of officers of Mid Penn and Scottdale) which are consistent with the state of facts existing as of the effective date of the merger, the merger will be treated for United States federal income tax purposes as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. The tax opinions to be delivered in connection with the merger represent each counsel’s best legal judgment; however, such opinions are not binding on the IRS or the courts, and neither Mid Penn nor Scottdale intends to request a ruling from the IRS with respect to the United States federal income tax consequences of the merger. Consequently, no assurance can be given that the IRS will not assert, or that a court would not sustain, a position contrary to any of those set forth below. In addition, if any of the facts, representations or assumptions upon which such opinions are based is inconsistent with the actual facts, the United States federal income tax consequences of the merger could be adversely affected.

Assuming that the merger will be treated as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, the discussion below sets forth the opinion of Stevens and Lee, P.C. as to the material United States federal income tax consequences of the merger to Scottdale shareholders:

 

    holders of Scottdale common stock who receive Mid Penn common stock in the merger in exchange for all their shares of Scottdale common stock will not recognize any gain or loss with respect to shares of Mid Penn common stock received (except with respect to cash received instead of a fractional share interest in Mid Penn common stock);

 

    holders of Scottdale common stock who receive only cash in the merger in exchange for all of their shares of Scottdale common stock will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount of cash received and the shareholder’s adjusted tax basis in the shares of Scottdale common stock exchanged therefor;

 

    each holder of Scottdale common stock who receives Mid Penn common stock and cash (other than in lieu of a fractional share interest in Mid Penn common stock) in the merger in exchange for the holder’s shares of Scottdale common stock will recognize the gain, if any, realized by the holder, in an amount not in excess of the amount of cash received (other than cash received instead of a fractional share interest in Mid Penn common stock), but will not recognize any loss on the exchange; and

 

    holders of Scottdale common stock who receive cash instead of a fractional share interest in Mid Penn common stock will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the cash received and the portion of the basis of the holders’ shares of Scottdale common stock allocable to that fractional share interest

Character of Gain Where Scottdale Common Stock is Exchanged in the Merger Solely for Cash

If, pursuant to the merger, all of the shares of Scottdale common stock actually owned by a shareholder are exchanged solely for cash, the shareholder generally will recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount of cash received and the shareholder’s adjusted tax basis in the shares of Scottdale common stock exchanged therefor. This gain or loss will generally be long-term capital gain or loss if the shareholder’s holding period with respect to the shares of Scottdale common stock exchanged is more than one year as of the effective date of the merger. If, however, any such shareholder actually or constructively (through the constructive ownership rules of the Internal Revenue Code) owns shares of Mid Penn stock immediately after the merger, part or all of the cash received may be treated as dividend income if the exchange has the effect of a distribution of a dividend with respect to the shareholder. The application of the law to a shareholder described in the previous sentence is particularly complex; accordingly, any such shareholder should consult his or her tax advisor.

 

87


Table of Contents

Character of Gain Where Scottdale Common Stock is Exchanged in the Merger for Mid Penn Common Stock and Cash

For purposes of calculating gain in this transaction, if a shareholder receives Mid Penn common stock and cash (other than cash received instead of a fractional interest in Mid Penn common stock), gain or loss must be calculated by the shareholder separately for each identifiable block of shares exchanged, and is equal to the sum of the amount of cash and the fair market value of Mid Penn common stock received with respect to that block of shares minus the shareholder’s adjusted tax basis in that block of shares. In addition, a loss realized on one block of shares may not be used to offset a gain realized on another block of shares.

As noted above, in the case of a Scottdale shareholder that exchanges his or her shares of Scottdale common stock for a combination of Mid Penn common stock and cash pursuant to the merger, such shareholder will recognize the gain, if any, realized by such shareholder in the exchange but not in excess of the amount of cash received. In general, the determination of whether any gain recognized in the exchange should be treated as capital gain or has the effect of a distribution of a dividend depends on whether, and to what extent, the exchange reduces the shareholder’s deemed percentage stock ownership of Mid Penn. For purposes of this determination, the shareholder is treated as if he or she first exchanged all of his or her shares of Scottdale common stock solely for Mid Penn common stock and then Mid Penn immediately redeemed (in a “deemed redemption”) a portion of such Mid Penn common stock in exchange for the cash the shareholder actually received. The gain recognized in the exchange will be treated as capital gain if the deemed redemption (i) is “substantially disproportionate” with respect to the shareholder or (ii) is not essentially equivalent to a dividend.

The deemed redemption should generally be “substantially disproportionate” with respect to a shareholder if the percentage of the outstanding stock of Mid Penn the shareholder owns, actually and constructively, immediately after the deemed redemption is less than 80% of the percentage of the outstanding stock of Mid Penn the shareholder is deemed to own, actually and constructively, immediately before the deemed redemption, and the shareholder owns less than 50% of the total combined voting power of all classes of Mid Penn stock immediately after the redemption.

Whether the deemed redemption is “not essentially equivalent to a dividend” with respect to a shareholder will depend on the shareholder’s particular circumstances. In order for the deemed redemption to be “not essentially equivalent to a dividend,” the deemed redemption must result in a “meaningful reduction” in the shareholder’s actual and constructive percentage stock ownership of Mid Penn. In general, that determination requires a comparison of the percentage of the outstanding stock of Mid Penn the shareholder is deemed to own, actually and constructively, immediately before the deemed redemption and the percentage of the outstanding stock of Mid Penn the shareholder actually and constructively owns immediately after the deemed redemption. The Internal Revenue Service has ruled that a minority shareholder (i.e., a shareholder whose relative stock interest is minimal in relation to the number of shares outstanding and who exercises no control with respect to corporate affairs) generally is treated as having a “meaningful reduction” in interest if a cash payment results in at least a relatively minor reduction in the shareholder’s actual and constructive percentage ownership.

Tax Basis and Holding Period

The aggregate tax basis of the Mid Penn common stock received by a Scottdale shareholder in the merger (including fractional shares deemed received and redeemed as described below) will be the same in the aggregate as the tax basis of the shares of Scottdale common stock surrendered by such shareholder for the Mid Penn common stock, decreased by the amount of any cash received (other than cash received instead of a fractional share interest in Mid Penn common stock) by the shareholder and increased by the amount of income or gain recognized by the shareholder in the exchange (which does not include gain recognized in respect of fractional shares deemed received and redeemed (as described below)).

Each Scottdale shareholder’s holding period in any shares of Mid Penn common stock received in the merger (including any fractional shares deemed received and redeemed as described below) will, in each instance,

 

88


Table of Contents

include the period during which the shares of Scottdale common stock surrendered in exchange therefor were held, provided that those shares of Scottdale common stock were held as capital assets on the effective date of the merger.

Cash Received in Lieu of a Fractional Share Interest

Cash received by a Scottdale shareholder in lieu of a fractional share interest in Mid Penn common stock will be treated as though the fractional share had been received and then redeemed for cash, and in general gain or loss will be recognized, measured by the difference between the amount of cash received and the portion of the basis of the shares of Scottdale common stock allocable to such fractional interest. Such gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the holding period for such shares of Scottdale common stock was more than one year as of the effective date of the merger. If, however, the receipt of cash instead of a fractional share of Mid Penn common stock has the effect of the distribution of a dividend with respect to a shareholder, part or all of the cash received may be treated as a dividend.

Mid Penn and Scottdale

Mid Penn and Scottdale will each be a party to the reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(b) of the Internal Revenue Code. As a result, no gain or loss will be recognized by Mid Penn or Scottdale as a result of the merger (except for amounts resulting from any required change in accounting methods and any deferred income, deferred gain or deferred loss to be taken into account under the relevant consolidated return regulations).

Backup Withholding

Backup withholding at a 28% rate will generally apply to merger consideration that includes cash if the exchanging Scottdale shareholder fails to properly certify that it is not subject to backup withholding, generally on Internal Revenue Service Form W-9. Certain holders, including, among others, United States corporations, are not subject to backup withholding, but they may still need to furnish a Form W-9 or otherwise establish an exemption. Any amounts withheld from payments to a Scottdale shareholder under the backup withholding rules are not additional taxes and will be allowed as a refund or credit against the shareholder’s United States federal income tax liability, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the Internal Revenue Service.

Medicare Tax

In addition to income taxes, any individual shareholder with adjusted gross income (including certain foreign income that is exempt from U.S. taxes) in excess of $250,000 for a married couple filing a joint return (in excess of $200,000 for individuals filing as single) will be subject to the 3.8% Medicare tax on all or part of the income recognized by such individual as a result of the merger.

Tax matters are very complicated, and the tax consequences of the merger to each holder of Scottdale common stock will depend on the facts of that shareholder’s particular situation. The discussion set forth above does not address all United States federal income tax consequences that may be relevant to a particular holder of Scottdale common stock and may not be applicable to holders in special situations. Holders of Scottdale common stock are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the specific tax consequences of the merger. Further, such discussion does not address tax consequences that may arise with respect to Mid Penn by reason of any actions taken or events occurring subsequent to the merger.

THE MID PENN SPECIAL MEETING

This joint proxy statement/prospectus is being furnished to Mid Penn shareholders by Mid Penn’s board of directors in connection with the solicitation of proxies from the Mid Penn shareholders for use at the special meeting of Mid Penn shareholders and any adjournments or postponements of the special meeting.

  1. adoption of the merger agreement as described in detail under the heading “The Merger” beginning on page [●]; and

 

  2. approval of a proposal to authorize the board of directors to adjourn the special meeting, if necessary, to solicit additional proxies to adopt the merger agreement.

Shareholders Entitled to Vote

The close of business on [●], 2017 has been fixed by Mid Penn’s board of directors as the record date for the determination of those holders of Mid Penn common stock who are entitled to notice of and to vote at the special meeting and any adjournment or postponement of the special meeting.

Quorum and Required Vote

Each holder of record of shares of Mid Penn common stock as of the Mid Penn record date is entitled to cast one vote per share at the special meeting on each proposal. The presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Mid Penn common stock entitled to vote at the special meeting constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business at the special meeting. The affirmative vote at the Mid Penn special meeting, in person or by proxy, of a majority of the votes cast is required to approve the merger agreement and the proposal to adjourn the Mid Penn special meeting, if necessary, to solicit additional proxies.

How Shares Will Be Voted at the Special Meeting

All shares of Mid Penn common stock represented by properly executed proxies received before or at the special meeting, and not properly revoked, will be voted as specified in the proxies. Properly executed proxies that do not contain voting instructions will be voted “FOR” the adoption of the merger agreement and “FOR” the adjournment or postponement of the special meeting, if necessary, to permit further solicitation of proxies.

If you hold shares of Mid Penn common stock in street name through a bank, broker or other nominee holder, the nominee holder may only vote your shares in accordance with your instructions. If you do not give specific instructions to your nominee holder as to how you want your shares voted, your nominee will indicate that it does not have authority to vote on the proposal, which will result in what is called a “broker non-vote.” Broker non-votes will be counted for determining whether there is a quorum present at the special meeting, but they will not be deemed to have been voted on any of the proposals. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not affect the outcomes of any of the proposals. If any other matters are properly brought before the special meeting, the proxies named in the proxy card will have discretion to vote the shares represented by duly executed proxies in their sole discretion.

Mid Penn has agreed to pay [        ] approximately $[        ], plus reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, for such services and will also indemnify [        ] against certain claims, costs, damages, liabilities, and expenses.

Mid Penn will bear the cost of soliciting proxies. In addition to solicitation of proxies by mail, Mid Penn will request that banks, brokers and other record holders send proxies and proxy material to the beneficial owners of Mid Penn common stock and secure their voting instructions. Mid Penn will reimburse the record holders for their reasonable expenses in taking those actions. If necessary, Mid Penn may use several of its regular employees, who will not be specially compensated, to solicit proxies from Mid Penn shareholders, either personally or by telephone, facsimile, letter or other electronic means.

Mid Penn and Scottdale will share equally the expenses incurred in connection with the copying, printing and distribution of this joint proxy statement/prospectus for their special meetings.

Mid Penn Affiliate Letter Agreements

As of the record date, directors and executive officers of Mid Penn and their affiliates had the right to vote 320,789 shares of Mid Penn common stock, or 7.6% of the outstanding Mid Penn common stock entitled to be voted at the special meeting. Each of the directors and executive officers of Mid Penn has agreed to vote all shares of Mid Penn common stock owned by him or her in favor of adoption of the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby.

Shareholders of record can vote in person at the special meeting. If you are not a shareholder of record, you must obtain a proxy executed in your favor from the record holder of your shares, such as a broker, bank or other nominee, to be able to vote in person at the special meeting. If you plan to attend the special meeting, you must hold your shares in your own name or have a letter from the record holder of your shares confirming your ownership and you must bring a form of personal photo identification with you in order to be admitted.

MID PENN SPECIAL MEETING—PROPOSAL NO. 1

APPROVAL AND ADOPTION OF THE MERGER AGREEMENT

Mid Penn is asking its shareholders to approve and adopt the merger agreement. For a detailed discussion of the merger, including the terms and conditions of the merger agreement, see “The Merger,” beginning on page [●]. As discussed in detail in the sections entitled “The Merger—Mid Penn’s Reasons for the Merger,” and “—Recommendation of Mid Penn’s Board of Directors,” beginning on pages [●] and [●], respectively, after careful consideration, the Mid Penn board of directors determined that the terms of the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated by it are in the best interests of Mid Penn and the board unanimously approved the merger agreement. Accordingly, Mid Penn’s board of directors unanimously recommends that Mid Penn shareholders vote “FOR” adoption of the merger agreement.

MID PENN SPECIAL MEETING—PROPOSAL NO. 2

AUTHORIZATION TO VOTE ON ADJOURNMENT OR OTHER MATTERS

General

If, at the Mid Penn special meeting, the number of shares of Mid Penn common stock, present in person or by proxy, is insufficient to constitute a quorum or the number of shares of Mid Penn common stock voting in favor is insufficient to adopt the merger agreement, Mid Penn management intends to adjourn the special meeting in order to enable the Mid Penn board of directors more time to solicit additional proxies. In that event, Mid Penn will ask its shareholders to vote only upon the adjournment proposal and not the proposal relating to adoption of the merger agreement.

In this proposal, Mid Penn is asking you to grant discretionary authority to the holder of any proxy solicited by the Mid Penn board of directors so that such holder can vote in favor of the proposal to adjourn the special meeting to solicit additional proxies. If the shareholders of Mid Penn approve the adjournment proposal, Mid Penn could adjourn the special meeting, and any adjourned session of the special meeting, and use the additional time to solicit additional proxies, including the solicitation of proxies from shareholders who have previously voted.

Generally, if the special meeting is adjourned, no notice of the adjourned meeting is required to be given to shareholders, other than an announcement at the special meeting of the place, date and time to which the meeting is adjourned.

Recommendation of the Mid Penn Board of Directors

The Mid Penn board of directors recommends a vote “FOR” the proposal to authorize the board of directors to adjourn the special meeting of shareholders to allow time for the further solicitation of proxies to adopt the merger agreement.

INFORMATION ABOUT MID PENN BANCORP, INC.

Business

Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc.

Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. is a one-bank holding company, incorporated in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in August 1991. Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries are collectively referred to herein as “Mid Penn” or the “Corporation.” On December 31, 1991, Mid Penn acquired, as part of the holding company formation, all of the outstanding common stock of Mid Penn Bank (the “Bank”), and Mid Penn Bank became a wholly owned subsidiary of Mid Penn. Mid Penn’s primary business is to supervise and coordinate the business of its subsidiaries and to provide them with capital and resources.

Mid Penn’s consolidated financial condition and results of operations consist almost entirely of that of Mid Penn Bank, which is managed as a single business segment. At December 31, 2016, Mid Penn had total consolidated assets of $1,032,599,000 with total deposits of $935,373,000 and total shareholders’ equity of $70,467,000.

As of December 31, 2016, Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. did not own or lease any properties. Mid Penn Bank owns or leases the banking offices as identified in Part I, Item 2.

All Mid Penn employees are employed by Mid Penn Bank. At December 31, 2016, Mid Penn Bank had 234 full-time and 23 part-time employees. Mid Penn Bank and its employees are not subject to a collective bargaining agreement, and Mid Penn Bank believes it enjoys good relations with its personnel.

Mid Penn Insurance Services, LLC was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mid Penn Bank that provided a wide range of personal and commercial insurance products. Due to the lack of activity within this subsidiary, the decision was made to exit this line of business, effective March 1, 2016.

Mid Penn Bank

Mid Penn Bank was organized in 1868 under a predecessor name, Millersburg Bank, and became a state chartered bank in 1931, obtaining trust powers in 1935, at which time its name was changed to Millersburg Trust Company. In 1971, Millersburg Trust Company adopted the name “Mid Penn Bank”. On March 1, 2015, in connection with the acquisition of Phoenix Bancorp, Inc. (“Phoenix”) by Mid Penn, Phoenix’s wholly-owned banking subsidiary, Miners Bank, was merged with and into Mid Penn Bank. Mid Penn Bank was the surviving charter, and Miners Bank’s four branches in Schuylkill and Luzerne Counties, Pennsylvania operate as “Miners Bank, a Division of Mid Penn Bank”. The Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) supervise Mid Penn Bank. Mid Penn’s and Mid Penn Bank’s legal headquarters are located at 349 Union Street, Millersburg, Pennsylvania 17061. Mid Penn Bank presently has 21 full service retail banking properties located in Cumberland, Dauphin, Lancaster, Luzerne, Northumberland, and Schuylkill Counties, Pennsylvania.

Mid Penn’s primary business consists of attracting deposits and loans from its network of community banking offices operated by Mid Penn Bank. Mid Penn Bank engages in full-service commercial banking and trust business, making available to the community a wide range of financial services, including, but not limited to, mortgage and home equity loans, secured and unsecured commercial and consumer loans, lines of credit, construction financing, farm loans, community development and local government loans and various types of time and demand deposits. Deposits of Mid Penn Bank are insured by the Deposit Insurance Fund (the “DIF”) of the FDIC to the maximum extent provided by law. In addition, Mid Penn Bank provides a full range of trust and retail investment services. Mid Penn Bank also offers other services such as online banking, telephone banking, cash management services, automated teller services and safe deposit boxes.

Business Strategy

Mid Penn Bank’s services are provided to small and middle-market businesses, consumers, nonprofit organizations, municipalities, and real estate investors through 21 full service retail banking properties, one loan production office, and a corporate administration office. Mid Penn’s primary markets currently, and historically, have lower unemployment than the U.S. as a whole, due in part to a diversified manufacturing and services base and the presence of state government offices, which help shield the markets from national trends. At December 31, 2016, the unadjusted unemployment rate for the Harrisburg/Carlisle and Lancaster areas, two of Mid Penn’s primary markets, were 3.9% and 3.7%, respectively, versus the seasonally adjusted national unemployment rate of 4.7%. The unadjusted unemployment rate for Mid Penn’s other market, in the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre/Hazleton area, was 5.5% at December 31, 2016.

Mid Penn Bank seeks to develop long-term customer relationships, maintain high quality service, and provide quick responses to customer needs. Mid Penn believes that an emphasis on local relationship building and its conservative approach to lending are important factors in the success and growth of Mid Penn.

Mid Penn Bank seeks credit opportunities of sound quality within its target market. Creditworthy customers exhibit positive historical repayment trends, stable cash flows and secondary sources of repayment from tangible collateral. Mid Penn Bank extends credit for the purpose of obtaining and continuing long-term relationships. Lenders are provided with detailed underwriting policies for all types of credit risks accepted by Mid Penn Bank, and must obtain appropriate approvals for credit extensions. Mid Penn Bank also maintains strict documentation requirements and extensive credit quality assurance practices in order to identify credit portfolio weaknesses as early as possible so any exposures that are discovered might be mitigated or potential losses reduced.

Lending Activities

Mid Penn Bank offers a variety of loan products to its customers, including loans secured by real estate and commercial and consumer loans. Mid Penn Bank’s primary lending objectives are as follows:

 

    to establish a diversified loan portfolio; and

 

    to provide a satisfactory return to Mid Penn’s shareholders by properly pricing loans to include the cost of funds, administrative costs, bad debts, local economic conditions, competition, customer relationships, the term of the loan, credit risk, collateral quality and a reasonable profit margin.

Credit risk is managed through portfolio diversification, underwriting policies and procedures, and loan monitoring practices. Mid Penn Bank generally secures its loans with real estate with such collateral values dependent and subject to change based on real estate market conditions within its market area. As of December 31, 2016, Mid Penn Bank’s highest concentration of credit is in commercial real estate. Most of Mid Penn Bank’s business activity with customers is located in Central Pennsylvania, specifically in Cumberland, Dauphin, Lancaster, Luzerne, Northumberland, and Schuylkill Counties.

Investment Activities

Mid Penn’s securities portfolio is used to provide both liquidity and a secondary source of interest earning through investments in higher-yielding assets than overnight funding alternatives, while maintaining asset quality. Mid Penn does not have any significant non-governmental concentrations within its investment securities portfolio.

Mid Penn’s entire portfolio of investment securities as of December 31, 2016, was considered available for sale. As such, the investments are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. Mid Penn’s investments include US Treasury, agency and municipal securities that derive fair values relative to investments of the same type with similar maturity dates. As the interest rate environment changes, Mid Penn’s fair value of existing securities will

Table of Contents

change. This difference between the amortized cost and fair value, or unrealized loss, amounted to $4,423,000 as of December 31, 2016. A majority of the investments are high quality United States and municipal securities that, if held to maturity, are expected to result in no loss to Mid Penn Bank.

For additional information with respect to Mid Penn’s business activities, see Part II, Item 7 of this report, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Sources of Funds

Mid Penn Bank primarily uses retail deposits and, to a lesser extent, wholesale borrowings to finance lending and investment activities. Borrowing sources include advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (the “FHLB”) and overnight borrowings from Mid Penn Bank’s correspondent banks. All borrowings, except for lines of credit with Mid Penn Bank’s correspondent banks, require collateral in the form of loans or securities. Collateral levels, therefore, limit borrowings and the available lines of credit extended by Mid Penn Bank’s creditors. As a result, generating and retaining retail deposits remain critical to the future funding and growth of the business. Deposit growth within the banking industry has been subject to strong competition from a variety of financial services companies. This competition may require financial institutions to adjust their product offerings and pricing to maintain and grow deposits.

Competition

The banking business is highly competitive, and the profitability of Mid Penn depends principally upon Mid Penn Bank’s ability to compete in its market area. Mid Penn Bank actively competes with other financial services companies for deposit, loan, and trust business. Competitors include other commercial banks, credit unions, savings banks, savings and loan associations, insurance companies, securities brokerage firms, finance companies, mutual funds, and service alternatives via the Internet. Financial institutions compete primarily on the quality of services rendered, interest rates on loans and deposits, service charges, the convenience of banking facilities, location and hours of operation and, in the case of loans to larger commercial borrowers, relative lending limits.

Many competitors are larger than Mid Penn Bank and have significantly greater financial resources, personnel and locations from which to conduct business. In addition, Mid Penn Bank is subject to banking regulations while certain competitors may not be. For more information, see the “Supervision and Regulation” section below.

Mid Penn has been able to compete effectively with other financial institutions by emphasizing customer service. Mid Penn’s customer service model is based on convenient hours, efficient and friendly employees, local decision making, and quality products. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (“GLB”), which broke down many barriers between the banking, securities and insurance industries, has significantly affected the competitive environment in which Mid Penn operates.

The flow of cash into mutual funds, much of which is made through tax deferred investment vehicles such as 401(k) plans, have historically been a popular savings vehicle for investors. The recent economic conditions and persistent lower interest rates have impacted the returns on many investments and impacted the manner in which investors distribute their funds across investment alternatives. The safety of traditional bank products has remained an attractive option during periods of market volatility. Mid Penn’s ability to attract funds in the future will be impacted by the public’s appetite for the safety of insured or local investments versus the returns offered by alternative choices as part of their personal investment mix.

Supervision and Regulation

General

Bank holding companies and banks are extensively regulated under both Federal and state laws. The regulation and supervision of Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank are focused on the protection of depositors, the DIF, and the

 

95


Table of Contents

monetary system, and not Mid Penn or its shareholders. Enforcement actions may include the imposition of a conservator or receiver, cease-and-desist orders and written agreements, the termination of insurance on deposits, the imposition of civil money penalties, and removal and prohibition orders. If a banking regulator takes any enforcement action, the value of an equity investment in Mid Penn could be substantially reduced or eliminated. As of December 31, 2016, Mid Penn Bank was not subject to any supervisory enforcement actions.

Federal and state banking laws contain numerous provisions affecting various aspects of the business and operations of Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank. Mid Penn is subject to, among others, the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”), and Mid Penn Bank is subject to, among others, the regulations of the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities and the FDIC. The descriptions below of, and references to, applicable statutes and regulations are not intended to be complete lists or reflective of all applicable provisions or their effects on Mid Penn or Mid Penn Bank. They are summaries only and are qualified in their entirety by reference to such statutes and regulations.

Holding Company Regulation

Mid Penn is a registered bank holding company subject to supervision and regulation by the Federal Reserve. As such, it is subject to Mid Penn Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 (“BHCA”) and many of the Federal Reserve’s regulations promulgated thereunder. The Federal Reserve has broad enforcement powers over bank holding companies, including the power to impose substantial fines and civil penalties.

The BHCA requires Mid Penn to file an annual report with the Federal Reserve regarding the holding company and its subsidiary bank. The Federal Reserve Board also makes examinations of the holding company. Mid Penn Bank is not a member of the Federal Reserve System; however, the Federal Reserve possesses cease-and-desist powers over bank holding companies and their subsidiaries where their actions would constitute an unsafe or unsound practice or violation of law. The Federal Reserve Board also makes policy that guides the declaration and distribution of dividends by bank holding companies.

The BHCA restricts a bank holding company’s ability to acquire control of additional banks. In addition, the BHCA restricts the activities in which bank holding companies may engage directly or through non-bank subsidiaries.

Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Modernization Act

Under GLB, bank holding companies, such as Mid Penn, that meet certain management, capital, and Community Reinvestment Act standards, are permitted to become financial holding companies. No prior regulatory approval will be required for a financial holding company to acquire a company, other than a bank or savings association, engaged in activities permitted under GLB. Activities cited by GLB as being financial in nature include:

 

    securities underwriting, dealing and market making;

 

    sponsoring mutual funds and investment companies;

 

    insurance underwriting and agency;

 

    merchant banking activities; and

 

    activities that the Federal Reserve has determined to be closely related to banking.

In addition to permitting financial services providers to enter into new lines of business, the law allows firms the freedom to streamline existing operations and to potentially reduce costs. The Act may increase both opportunity as well as competition.

A bank holding company may become a financial holding company if each of its subsidiary banks is well capitalized under the FDIC Improvement Act’s prompt corrective action provisions, is well managed and has at

Table of Contents

least a satisfactory rating under the Community Reinvestment Act. The required filing is a declaration that the bank holding company wishes to become a financial holding company and meets all applicable requirements. Many community banks are less able to devote the capital and management resources needed to facilitate broad expansion of financial services including insurance and brokerage services. Mid Penn has not elected to become a financial holding company at this time.

Bank Regulation

Mid Penn Bank, a Pennsylvania-chartered institution, is subject to supervision, regulation and examination by the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities and the FDIC. The deposits of Mid Penn Bank are insured by the FDIC to the maximum extent provided by law. The FDIC assesses deposit insurance premiums, the amount of which depends in part on both the asset size and the condition of Mid Penn Bank. Moreover, the FDIC may terminate deposit insurance of Mid Penn Bank under certain circumstances. The federal and state banking regulatory agencies have broad enforcement powers over depository institutions under their jurisdiction, including the power to terminate deposit insurance, to impose fines and other civil and criminal penalties, and to appoint a conservator or receiver if any of a number of conditions is met. In addition, Mid Penn Bank is subject to a variety of local, state and federal laws that affect its operations.

Banking regulations include, but are not limited to, permissible types and amounts of loans, investments and other activities, capital adequacy, branching, interest rates on loans, compensation standards, payment of dividends, various bank account and bank service disclosures, and the safety and soundness of banking practices.

Capital Requirements

Under risk-based capital requirements for bank holding companies, Mid Penn is required to maintain a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets (including certain off-balance-sheet activities, such as standby letters of credit) of eight percent. Through December 31, 2016, at least half of the total capital is to be composed of common equity, retained earnings and qualifying perpetual preferred stock, less goodwill (“Tier 1 Capital”). The remainder may consist of subordinated debt, non-qualifying preferred stock and a limited amount of the loan loss allowance (“Tier 2 Capital”). Combined, the Tier 1 Capital and Tier 2 Capital comprise regulatory “Total Capital”.

In addition, the Federal Reserve has established minimum leverage ratio requirements for bank holding companies. These requirements provide for a minimum leverage ratio of Tier 1 Capital to adjusted average quarterly assets (“leverage ratio”) equal to 3% for bank holding companies that meet certain specified criteria, including having the highest regulatory rating. All other bank holding companies will generally be required to maintain a leverage ratio of at least 4-5%. The requirements also provide that bank holding companies experiencing internal growth or making acquisitions will be expected to maintain strong capital positions substantially above the minimum supervisory levels without significant reliance on intangible assets. Furthermore, the requirements indicate that the Federal Reserve will continue to consider a “Tangible Tier 1 Leverage Ratio” (deducting all intangibles) in evaluating proposals for expansion or new activity. The Federal Reserve has not advised Mid Penn of any specific minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio requirement.

Mid Penn Bank is subject to similar capital requirements adopted by the FDIC. The FDIC has not advised Mid Penn Bank of any specific minimum leverage ratios.

The capital ratios of Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank are described in Note 18 to Mid Penn’s Consolidated Financial Statements, which are included herein.

Banking regulators continue to indicate their desire to further refine capital requirements applicable to banking organizations, including those discussed in the “Regulatory Capital Changes” section below. Changes to capital requirements could materially affect the profitability of Mid Penn or the fair value of Mid Penn stock.

Table of Contents

Prompt Corrective Action

In addition to the required minimum capital levels described above, federal law establishes a system of “prompt corrective actions” which federal banking agencies are required to take, and certain actions which they have discretion to take, based upon the capital category into which a federally regulated depository institution falls. Regulations set forth detailed procedures and criteria for implementing prompt corrective action in the case of any institution, which is not adequately capitalized. Under the rules, an institution will be deemed to be “adequately capitalized” if it exceeds the minimum federal regulatory capital requirements. However, it will be deemed “undercapitalized” if it fails to meet the minimum capital requirements, “significantly undercapitalized” if it has a Total Risk-Based Capital ratio that is less than 6.0%, a Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital ratio that is less than 3.0%, or a leverage ratio that is less than 3.0%, and “critically undercapitalized” if the institution has a ratio of tangible equity to total assets that is equal to or less than 2.0%.

The prompt corrective action rules require an undercapitalized institution to file a written capital restoration plan, along with a performance guaranty by its holding company or a third party. In addition, an undercapitalized institution becomes subject to certain automatic restrictions including a prohibition on payment of dividends, a limitation on asset growth and expansion, in certain cases, a limitation on the payment of bonuses or raises to senior executive officers, and a prohibition on the payment of certain “management fees” to any “controlling person”. Institutions that are classified as undercapitalized are also subject to certain additional supervisory actions, including increased reporting burdens and regulatory monitoring, a limitation on the institution’s ability to make acquisitions, open new branch offices, or engage in new lines of business, obligations to raise additional capital, restrictions on transactions with affiliates, and restrictions on interest rates paid by the institution on deposits. In certain cases, bank regulatory agencies may require replacement of senior executive officers or directors, or sale of the institution to a willing purchaser. If an institution is deemed “critically undercapitalized” and continues in that category for four quarters, the statute requires, with certain narrowly limited exceptions, that the institution be placed in receivership.

Regulatory Capital Changes

In July 2013, the federal banking agencies issued final rules to implement the Basel III regulatory capital reforms and changes required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”). The phase-in period for community banking organizations began January 1, 2015. The final rules called for the following minimum capital requirements (which include the impact of the capital conservation buffer effective January 1, 2016):

 

     Effective January 1,  
       2016         2017    

Common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets

     5.125     5.75

Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets

     6.625     7.25

Total capital to risk-weighted assets

     8.625     9.25

Leverage ratio

     4.0     4.0

The final rules established a common equity Tier 1 capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk-weighted assets applicable to all banking organizations. If a banking organization fails to hold capital above the minimum capital ratios and the capital conservation buffer, it could be subject to certain restrictions on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments. The phase-in period for the capital conservation and countercyclical capital buffers for all banking organizations began on January 1, 2016 at the 0.625% level. Implementation of the deductions and other adjustments to common equity Tier 1 capital began on January 1, 2015 and will be phased-in over a three-year period (beginning at 40% on January 1, 2015, 60% on January 1, 2016 and an additional 20% per year thereafter).

The final rules allow community banks to make a one-time election not to include the additional components of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) in regulatory capital and instead use the existing treatment

 

98


Table of Contents

under the general risk-based capital rules that excludes most AOCI components from regulatory capital. Mid Penn made the election not to include the additional components of AOCI in regulatory capital.

The final rules permanently grandfather non-qualifying capital instruments (such as trust preferred securities and cumulative perpetual preferred stock) issued before May 19, 2010 for inclusion in the Tier 1 Capital of banking organizations with total consolidated assets less than $15 billion as of December 31, 2009 and banking organizations that were mutual holding companies as of May 19, 2010.

Consistent with the Dodd-Frank Act, the new rules replace the ratings-based approach to securitization exposures, which is based on external credit ratings, with the simplified supervisory formula approach in order to determine the appropriate risk weights for these exposures. Alternatively, banking organizations may use the existing gross-ups approach to assign securitization exposures to a risk weight category or choose to assign such exposures a 1,250% risk weight.

Under the new rules, mortgage servicing assets (“MSAs”) and certain deferred tax assets (“DTAs”) are subject to stricter limitations than those applicable under the current general risk-based capital rule. The new rules also increase the risk weights for past-due loans, certain risk weights and credit conversion factors.

Mid Penn has implemented these changes in determining and reporting the regulatory ratios of Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank, and has concluded that the new rules did not have a material negative effect on Mid Penn’s financial condition.

Safety and Soundness Standards

The federal banking regulatory agencies have adopted a set of guidelines prescribing safety and soundness standards for depository institutions such as Mid Penn Bank. The guidelines establish general standards relating to management practices, internal controls and information systems, internal audit systems, loan documentation, credit underwriting, interest rate exposure, asset growth, asset quality, liquidity, capital, earnings, compensation, fees and benefits. In general, the guidelines require, among other things, appropriate systems and practices to identify and manage the risks and exposures specified in the guidelines. The guidelines prohibit excessive compensation as an unsafe and unsound practice and describe compensation as excessive when the amounts paid are unreasonable or disproportionate to the services performed by an executive officer, employee, director or principal shareholder. In addition, the agencies adopted regulations that authorize an agency to order an institution that has been given notice by an agency that it is not satisfying any of such safety and soundness standards to submit a compliance plan. If the institution fails to submit an acceptable compliance plan or fails to implement an accepted plan, the agency must issue an order directing action to correct the deficiency and may issue an order directing other actions be taken, including restricting asset growth, restricting interest rates paid on deposits, and requiring an increase in the institution’s ratio of tangible equity to assets.

Payment of Dividends and Other Restrictions

Mid Penn is a legal entity separate and distinct from its subsidiary, Mid Penn Bank. There are various legal and regulatory limitations on the extent to which Mid Penn Bank can, among other things, finance, or otherwise supply funds to, Mid Penn. Specifically, dividends from Mid Penn Bank are the principal source of Mid Penn’s cash funds, and there are certain legal restrictions under Pennsylvania law and Pennsylvania banking regulations on the payment of dividends by state-chartered banks. The relevant regulatory agencies also have authority to prohibit Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank from engaging in what, in the opinion of such regulatory body, constitutes an unsafe or unsound banking practice. The payment of dividends could, depending upon the financial condition of Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank, be deemed to constitute such an unsafe or unsound practice. Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank were not subject to any such dividend prohibitions as of December 31, 2016.

Deposit Insurance

The FDIC insures deposits of Mid Penn Bank through the DIF. The FDIC maintains the DIF by assessing depository institutions an insurance premium. The amount each institution is assessed is based upon a variety of factors that include the level of assets and tangible equity, as well as the degree of risk the institution poses to the insurance fund. The FDIC insures deposits up to $250,000. Mid Penn Bank pays an insurance premium into the DIF based on a regulatory defined assessment calculation. The FDIC uses a risk-based premium system that assesses higher rates on those institutions that pose greater risks to the DIF. The FDIC places each institution in one of four risk categories using a two-step process based first on capital ratios (the capital group assignment) and then on other relevant information (the supervisory group assignment). Subsequently, the rate for each institution within a risk category may be adjusted depending upon different factors that either enhance or reduce the risk the institution poses to the DIF, including the unsecured debt, secured liabilities and brokered deposits related to each institution. Finally, certain risk multipliers may be applied to the adjusted assessment.

Beginning with the second quarter of 2011, as mandated by the Dodd-Frank Act, the assessment base that the FDIC uses to calculate assessment premiums is a bank’s average assets minus average tangible equity. As the asset base of the banking industry is larger than the deposit base, the range of assessment rates is a low of 2.5 basis points and a high of 45 basis points, per $100 of assets.

The FDIC is required under the Dodd-Frank Act to establish assessment rates that will allow the DIF to achieve a reserve ratio of 1.35% of Insurance Fund insured deposits by September 2020. In addition, the FDIC has established a “designated reserve ratio” of 2.0%, a target ratio that, until it is achieved, will not likely result in the FDIC reducing assessment rates. In attempting to achieve the mandated 1.35% ratio, the FDIC is required to implement assessment formulas that charge banks over $10 billion in asset size more than banks under that size. These new formulas did not affect Mid Penn Bank as it was less than $10 billion in total assets size. Under the Dodd-Frank Act, the FDIC is authorized to make reimbursements from the insurance fund to banks if the reserve ratio exceeds 1.50%, but the FDIC has adopted the “designated reserve ratio” of 2.0% and has announced that any reimbursements from the fund are indefinitely suspended.

Consumer Protection Laws

A number of laws govern the relationship between Mid Penn Bank and its customers. For example, the Community Reinvestment Act is designed to encourage lending by banks to persons in low and moderate income areas. The Home Mortgage Disclosure Act and the Equal Credit Opportunity Act attempt to minimize lending decisions based on impermissible criteria, such as race or gender. The Truth-in-Lending Act and the Truth-in-Savings Act require banks to provide certain disclosure of relevant terms related to loans and savings accounts, respectively. Anti-tying restrictions (which prohibit conditioning the availability or terms of credit on the purchase of another banking product) further restrict Mid Penn Bank’s relationships with its customers. Mid Penn Bank maintains a comprehensive compliance management program to promote its compliance with these and other applicable consumer protection laws and regulations.

Privacy Laws

The federal banking regulators have issued a number of regulations governing the privacy of consumer financial and customer information. The regulations limit the disclosure by financial institutions, such as Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank, of nonpublic personal information about individuals who obtain financial products or services for personal, family, or household purposes. Subject to certain exceptions allowed by law, the regulations cover information sharing between financial institutions and nonaffiliated third parties. More specifically, the regulations require financial institutions to:

 

    provide initial notices to customers about their privacy policies, describing the conditions under which they may disclose nonpublic personal financial information to nonaffiliated third parties and affiliates;

 

100


Table of Contents
    provide annual notices of their privacy policies to their current customers;

 

    provide a reasonable method for consumers to “opt out” of disclosures to nonaffiliated third parties.

Affiliate Transactions

Transactions between Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank and its affiliates are governed by Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act. An “affiliate” of a bank or savings institution is any company or entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the bank or savings institution. Generally, a subsidiary of a depository institution that is not also a depository institution is not treated as an affiliate of the bank for purposes of Sections 23A and 23B. Sections 23A and 23B are intended to protect insured depository institutions from suffering losses arising from transactions with non-insured affiliates, by limiting the extent to which a bank or its subsidiaries may engage in covered transactions with any one affiliate and with all affiliates of the bank in the aggregate, and requiring that such transactions be on terms that are consistent with safe and sound banking practices.

The USA Patriot Act

The Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (“USA Patriot Act”) broadened the application of anti-money laundering regulations to apply to additional types of financial institutions, such as broker-dealers, and strengthened the ability of the U.S. government to detect and prosecute international money laundering and the financing of terrorism. The principal provisions of Title III of the USA Patriot Act require that regulated financial institutions, including state-chartered banks:

 

    establish an anti-money laundering program that includes training and audit components;

 

    comply with regulations regarding the verification of the identity of any person seeking to open an account;

 

    take additional required precautions with non-U.S. owned accounts; and

 

    perform certain verification and certification of money laundering risk for their foreign correspondent banking relationships.

The USA Patriot Act also expanded the conditions under which funds in a U.S. interbank account may be subject to forfeiture and increased the penalties for violation of anti-money laundering regulations. Failure of a financial institution to comply with the USA Patriot Act’s requirements could have serious legal and reputational consequences for the institution. Mid Penn Bank has adopted policies, procedures and controls to address compliance with the requirements of the USA Patriot Act under the existing regulations and will continue to revise and update its policies, procedures and controls to reflect changes required by the USA Patriot Act and implementing regulations.

Anti-Money Laundering and Anti-Terrorism Financing

Under Title III of the USA Patriot Act, also known as the International Money Laundering Abatement and Anti-Terrorism Financing Act of 2001, all financial institutions, including Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank, are required in general to identify their customers, adopt formal and comprehensive anti-money laundering programs, scrutinize or prohibit altogether certain transactions of special concern, and be prepared to respond to inquiries from U.S. law enforcement agencies concerning their customers and their transactions. Additional information-sharing among financial institutions, regulators, and law enforcement authorities is encouraged for financial institutions that comply with this provision and the authorization of the Secretary of the Treasury to adopt rules to further encourage cooperation and information-sharing. The effectiveness of a financial institution in combating money-laundering activities is a factor to be considered in any application submitted by the financial institution under the Bank Merger Act, which applies to Mid Penn Bank.

JOBS Act

In 2012, the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS Act”) became law. The JOBS Act is aimed at facilitating capital raising by smaller companies, banks, and bank holding companies by implementing the following changes:

 

    raising the threshold requiring registration under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) for banks and bank holdings companies from 500 to 2,000 holders of record;

 

    raising the threshold for triggering deregistration under the Exchange Act for banks and bank holding companies from 300 to 1,200 holders of record;

 

    raising the limit for Regulation A offerings from $5 million to $50 million per year and exempting some Regulation A offerings from state blue sky laws;

 

    permitting advertising and general solicitation in Rule 506 and Rule 144A offerings;

 

    allowing private companies to use “crowdfunding” to raise up to $1 million in any 12-month period, subject to certain conditions; and

 

    creating a new category of issuer, called an “Emerging Growth Company,” for companies with less than $1 billion in annual gross revenue, which will benefit from certain changes that reduce the cost and burden of carrying out an equity IPO and complying with public company reporting obligations for up to five years.

Dodd-Frank Act

The Dodd-Frank Act, which became law in July 2010, significantly changed regulation of financial institutions and the financial services industry. Dodd-Frank created a Financial Services Oversight Council to identify emerging systemic risks and improve interagency cooperation, and centralized responsibility for consumer financial protection by creating a new agency, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which is responsible for implementing, examining and enforcing compliance with federal consumer financial laws. Dodd-Frank also permanently raised the current standard maximum deposit insurance amount to $250,000, established strengthened capital standards for banks, disallowed certain trust preferred securities from qualifying as Tier 1 Capital (subject to certain grandfather provisions for existing trust preferred securities), established new minimum mortgage underwriting standards, granted the Federal Reserve the power to regulate debit card interchange fees, and implemented corporate governance changes.

Effects of Government Policy and Potential Changes in Regulation

Changes in regulations applicable to Mid Penn or Mid Penn Bank, or shifts in monetary or other government policies, could have a material effect on our business. Mid Penn’s and Mid Penn Bank’s business is also affected by the state of the financial services industry in general. As a result of legal and industry changes, management believes that the industry will continue to experience an increased rate of change as the financial services industry strives for greater product offerings, market share and economies of scale.

From time to time, legislation is enacted that has the effect of increasing the cost of doing business, limiting or expanding permissible activities or affecting the competitive balance between banks and other financial institutions. Proposals to change the laws and regulations governing the operations and taxation of banks, bank holding companies and other financial institutions are frequently made in Congress, and before various bank regulatory agencies. Mid Penn cannot predict the likelihood of any major changes or the impact such changes might have on Mid Penn and/or Mid Penn Bank. Various congressional bills and other proposals have proposed a sweeping overhaul of the banking system, including provisions for: limitations on deposit insurance coverage; changing the timing and method financial institutions use to pay for deposit insurance; expanding the power of banks by removing the restrictions on bank underwriting activities; and changing the regulation of bank derivatives activities; and allowing commercial enterprises to own banks. As a consequence of the extensive

 

102


Table of Contents

regulation of commercial banking activities in the United States, Mid Penn Bank’s business is particularly susceptible to being affected by federal legislation and regulations that may increase the costs of doing business. Whether any legislation will be enacted or additional regulations will be adopted, and how they might impact Mid Penn, cannot be determined at this time.

Mid Penn’s earnings are, and will be affected by, domestic economic conditions and the monetary and fiscal policies of the United States government and its agencies. The monetary policies of the Federal Reserve have had, and will likely continue to have, an impact on the operating results of commercial banks because of the Federal Reserve’s power to implement national monetary policy to, among other things, promote employment, control inflation or combat recession. The Federal Reserve has a major impact on the levels of bank loans, investments and deposits through its open market operations in United States government securities and through its regulation of, among other things, the discount rate on borrowings of member banks and the reserve requirements against member bank deposits. It is not possible to predict the nature and impact of future changes in monetary and fiscal policies.

Environmental Laws

Management does not anticipate that compliance with environmental laws and regulations will have any material effect on Mid Penn’s capital, expenditures, earnings, or competitive position. However, environmentally related hazards have become a source of high risk and liability for some financial institutions.

Additionally, the Pennsylvania Economic Development Agency, Fiduciary and Lender Environmental Liability Protection Act provides, among other things, protection to lenders from environmental liability and remediation costs under the environmental laws for releases and contamination caused by others. A lender who engages in activities involved in the routine practices of commercial lending, including, but not limited to, the providing of financial services, holding of security interests, workout practices, foreclosure or the recovery of funds from the sale of property shall not be liable under the environmental acts or common law equivalents to the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Resources or to any other person by virtue of the fact that the lender engages in such commercial lending practice. A lender, however, will be liable if it, its employees or agents, directly cause an immediate release or directly exacerbate a release of regulated substance on or from the property, or known and willfully compelled the borrower to commit an action which caused such release or violate an environmental act. The Pennsylvania Economic Development Agency, Fiduciary and Lender Environmental Liability Protection Act does not limit federal liability which still exists under certain circumstances.

Corporate Governance

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and related regulations adopted by the SEC and NASDAQ address the following issues: corporate governance, auditor independence and accounting standards, executive compensation, insider loans, whistleblower protection, and enhanced and timely disclosure of corporate information. Mid Penn has established policies, procedures, and systems designed to promote compliance with these regulations.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Mid Penn

Critical Accounting Estimates

Mid Penn’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and conform to general practices within the banking industry for smaller reporting public companies. Application of these principles involves significant judgments and estimates by management that have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities. The judgments and estimates that we used are based on historical experiences and other factors, which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the nature of the judgments and estimates that we have made, actual results could differ from these judgments and estimates, which could have a material impact on the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported results of our operations.

Management of Mid Penn considers the accounting judgments relating to the allowance for loan and lease losses, the evaluation of Mid Penn’s investment securities for other-than-temporary impairment, the valuation of Mid Penn’s goodwill for impairment, and the valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, to be the accounting areas that require the most subjective and complex judgments.

 

104


Table of Contents

The allowance for loan and lease losses represents management’s estimate of probable incurred credit losses inherent in the loan and lease portfolio. Determining the amount of the allowance for loan and lease losses is considered a critical accounting estimate because it requires significant judgment and the use of estimates related to the amount and timing of expected future cash flows on impaired loans, estimated losses on pools of homogeneous loans based on historical loss experience, and consideration of current economic trends and conditions, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. The loan and lease portfolio also represents the largest asset type on the consolidated balance sheet. Throughout the remainder of this report, the terms “loan” or “loans” refers to both loans and leases.

Valuations for the investment portfolio are determined using quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, investment valuation is based on pricing models, quotes for similar investment securities, and observable values based upon yield curves and spreads. In addition to valuation, management must assess whether there are any declines in value below the carrying value of the investments that should be considered other than temporary or otherwise require an adjustment in carrying value and recognition of the loss in the consolidated statement of income.

Goodwill recorded in connection with acquisitions is tested annually for impairment. If certain events occur which indicate goodwill might be impaired between annual tests, goodwill must be tested when such events occur. In making this assessment, Mid Penn considers a number of factors including operating results, business plans, economic projections, anticipated future cash flows, current market data, stock price, etc. There are inherent uncertainties related to these factors and Mid Penn’s judgment in applying them to the analysis of goodwill impairment. Changes in economic and operating conditions could result in goodwill impairment in future periods.

Valuations of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations are measured at fair value as of the acquisition date. In many cases, determining the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires Mid Penn to estimate the timing and amount of cash flows expected to result from these assets and liabilities and to discount these cash flows at appropriate rates of interest, which require the utilization of significant estimates and judgment in accounting for the acquisition.

Financial Summary

The comparability of the results of operations for the years ended 2016 and 2015, in general, have been impacted by the acquisition of Phoenix. The reported results for the year ended December 31, 2015 included only ten months of operating results related to the Phoenix acquisition, which closed on March 1, 2015, versus 2016 including twelve months of Phoenix-related results. The consolidated earnings of Mid Penn are derived primarily from the operations of its wholly owned subsidiary, Mid Penn Bank.

2016 versus 2015

Mid Penn’s net income available to common shareholders (“earnings”) of $7,804,000 for the year 2016 reflects an increase of $1,766,000 or 29 percent, over earnings of $6,038,000 for the year 2015. This represents earnings in 2016 of $1.85 per common share, basic and diluted, compared to $1.47 per common share basic and diluted in 2015.

Total assets of Mid Penn grew $100,961,000 or 11 percent, in 2016 to close the year at $1,032,599,000 compared to total assets of $931,638,000 at the end of 2015. This increase was impacted by strong growth in the loan portfolio, as well as in deposits, which led to an increase in Federal Funds Sold. For the year ended December 31, 2016, total deposits increased $158,330,000 or 20 percent to $935,373,000 while the loan portfolio increased $77,411,000 or 11 percent, to $813,924,000 at December 31, 2016. Over the last twelve months, all deposit categories increased, mainly due to both strong retail branch deposit growth and cash management sales efforts. Mid Penn was in a Federal Funds Sold position of $30,477,000 at December 31, 2016, while it was in a short-term borrowing position of $31,596,000 at December 31, 2015.

Table of Contents

During the year ended December 31, 2016, long-term debt decreased by $26,724,000 or 66 percent, to $13,581,000 by the end of the year. Mid Penn was able to take advantage of the growth in deposits as a lower cost funding source. The growth in deposits also allowed Mid Penn the opportunity to prepay $16,500,000 in long-term FHLB Advances in 2016.

Mid Penn’s return on average shareholders’ equity, (“ROE”), a widely recognized performance indicator in the financial industry, was 10.71% in 2016 and 9.16% in 2015. Return on average assets (“ROA”), another performance indicator, was 0.78% in 2016 and 0.74% in 2015.

Net interest margin was 3.82% in 2016 versus 4.03% in 2015. Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis increased to $36,470,000 in 2016 from $33,806,000 in 2015. Included in net interest income for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $167,000 in income from the successful resolution of two legacy Phoenix loans acquired with credit deterioration and $558,000 in income for the year ended December 31, 2015 from the successful resolution of six legacy Phoenix loans acquired with credit deterioration. The income was the result of recognizing the remaining accretable and nonaccretable discounts on these loans. Further discussion of net interest margin can be found in the Net Interest Income section below.

Total nonperforming assets decreased $303,000 from $6,062,000 at the end of 2015 to $5,759,000 at the end of 2016. The decline of $961,000 in foreclosed real estate held for sale from $1,185,000 at December 31, 2015 to $224,000 at December 31, 2016 was the leading source of improvement in nonperforming assets. Further discussion of these components can be found in the Credit Quality, Credit Risk, and Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses section below.

Net charge-offs decreased to $855,000 in 2016 from $1,613,000 during 2015. Gross charge-offs decreased $677,000 from $1,784,000 in 2015 to $1,107,000 in 2016. Mid Penn increased the provision for loan and lease losses from $1,065,000 in 2015 to $1,870,000 in 2016. The increase in the loan loss provision for 2016 compared to 2015 was largely driven by the growth in the loan portfolio, as well as an increase in specific allocations on impaired loans. Further discussion of these issues can be found in the Provision for Loan and Lease Losses section below.

Mid Penn’s Tier 1 Capital (to risk weighted assets) of $70,431,000 or 9.1%, and Total Capital (to risk weighted assets) of $85,148,000 or 11.0%, at December 31, 2016, are above the regulatory requirements. Tier 1 Capital consists primarily of Mid Penn’s shareholders’ equity. Total Capital also includes Mid Penn’s qualifying subordinated debt and the allowance for loan and lease losses, within permitted limits. Risk-weighted assets are determined by assigning various levels of risk to different categories of assets and off-balance sheet activities.

2015 versus 2014

Mid Penn’s earnings of $6,038,000 for the year 2015 reflects an increase of $687,000 or 13 percent, over earnings of $5,351,000 for the year 2014. This represents earnings in 2015 of $1.47 per common share compared to $1.53 per common share in 2014.

Total assets of Mid Penn grew $176,067,000 or 23 percent, in 2015 to close the year at $931,724,000 compared to $755,657,000 at the end of 2014. This increase was impacted by the inclusion of Phoenix’s assets on Mid Penn’s balance sheet, as well as growth in the loan portfolio, which increased $164,980,000 or 29 percent, to $736,513,000. Loans attributable to Phoenix included in the growth of the loan portfolio were $91,655,000.

Total deposits increased $139,121,000 or 22 percent, from $637,922,000 at the end of 2014 to $777,043,000 at December 31, 2015. Over the last twelve months, all deposit categories increased, mainly due to the inclusion of Phoenix’s deposits, but also due to strong cash management and retail efforts. Long-term debt decreased by $12,656,000 or 24 percent, to $40,305,000 by the end of 2015. Mid Penn increased its short-term borrowing position by $31,018,000 to $31,596,000 at the end of 2015 as a low-cost funding source to fund the increased loan demand and to replace the long-term debt that matured in 2015.

Table of Contents

Mid Penn’s ROE, a widely recognized performance indicator in the financial industry, was 9.16% in 2015 and 9.95% in 2014. ROA, another performance indicator, was 0.74% in 2015 and 0.78% in 2014.

Performance in 2015 was influenced by the March 1, 2015 acquisition of Phoenix, which resulted in increased earning assets and shareholders’ equity, as well as an improved cost of funds. Mid Penn also had improvement in nonperforming loans and consistent management of controllable expenses throughout 2015.

Net interest margin improved to 4.03% in 2015 from 3.99% in 2014. This improvement was driven by a decrease in the rate on supporting liabilities to 0.64% in 2015 from 0.71% in 2014, which allowed the average interest spread to increase to 3.94% from 3.91% in 2014. Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis increased to $33,806,000 in 2015 from $27,968,000 in 2014. Included in the net interest income increase for the year ended December 31, 2015 is $558,000 in income from the successful resolution of six legacy Phoenix loans acquired with credit deterioration. The income was the result of recognizing the remaining accretable and nonaccretable discounts on these loans. Further discussion of net interest margin can be found in the Net Interest Income section below.

Total nonperforming assets decreased $5,445,000 from $11,507,000 in 2014 to $6,062,000 at the end of 2015. Decreasing nonaccrual loans were the leading source of improvement in nonperforming assets. Two nonaccrual troubled debt restructured loans to unrelated borrowers that totaled $4,680,000 at December 31, 2014, were resolved in 2015, further aiding in the reduction in nonperforming assets. Further discussion of these components can be found in the Credit Quality, Credit Risk, and Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses section.

Net charge-offs increased to $1,613,000 in 2015 from $1,218,000 during 2014. Gross charge-offs increased $456,000 from $1,328,000 in 2014 to $1,784,000 in 2015 mainly due to the impact of two large charge-offs to unrelated borrowers in 2015 totaling $1,461,000. Mid Penn decreased the provision for loan and lease losses from $1,617,000 in 2014 to $1,065,000 in 2015. This was largely driven by decreasing balances of nonperforming assets within the portfolio. Further discussion of these issues can be found in the Provision for Loan and Lease Losses section below.

Mid Penn’s Tier 1 Capital (to risk weighted assets) of $64,089,000 or 9.1%, and Total Capital (to risk weighted assets) of $77,852,000, or 11.0%, at December 31, 2015, are above the regulatory requirements. Tier 1 Capital consists primarily of Mid Penn’s shareholders’ equity. Total Capital also includes Mid Penn’s qualifying subordinated debt and the allowance for loan and lease losses, within permitted limits. Risk-weighted assets are determined by assigning various levels of risk to different categories of assets and off-balance sheet activities.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income, Mid Penn’s primary source of earnings, represents the difference between interest income received on loans, investments, and overnight funds, and interest expense paid on deposits and short- and long-term borrowings. Net interest income is affected by changes in interest rates and changes in average balances (volume) in the various interest-sensitive assets and liabilities.

The effect of changing volume and rate has been allocated entirely to the rate column. Tax-exempt income is shown on a tax equivalent basis assuming a federal income tax rate of 34%.

During 2016, taxable equivalent net interest income increased $2,664,000 or 8 percent compared to 2015. During 2015, taxable equivalent net interest income increased $5,838,000 or 21 percent compared to 2014, with much of this increase attributable to the impact of the Phoenix acquisition. The average balances, effective interest differential, and interest yields for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 and the components of net interest income, are presented in Table 1. A comparative presentation of the changes in net interest income for 2016 compared to 2015, and 2015 compared to 2014, is provided in Table 2. This analysis indicates the changes in interest income and interest expense caused by the volume and rate components of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities.

The yield on earning assets decreased to 4.38% in 2016 from 4.58% in 2015. The yield on earning assets for 2014 was 4.62%. The decline in the yield on earning assets in 2016 was softened by the increase in both

investment and loan volume. The increased volume helped offset the impact of the decline in the average rate. The average rate on loans decreased from 4.85% in 2015 to 4.78% in 2016. The average rates on investment securities also declined from 2015 to 2016. Taxable investments decreased from 2.38% to 1.91% and tax-exempt investments decreased from 4.33% to 3.89%. This decline in investment yields was generally the result of matured, called, and sold bond proceeds being reinvested at lower market rates. The average “prime rate” for 2016 was 3.50%, while it was 3.25% in both 2015 and 2014.

Interest expense increased by $760,000 or 16 percent, in 2016 as compared to 2015. For the year ending December 31, 2015, interest expense increased $180,000 or 4 percent, compared to 2014. The cost of interest bearing liabilities increased to 0.67% in 2016 from 0.64% in 2015. The cost of interest bearing liabilities for 2014 was 0.71%. While the continued low interest rate environment, along with Mid Penn’s ability to replace higher-cost time deposits with lower-cost demand deposits, aided in maintaining a low cost of interest bearing liabilities in 2016, the increase in the volume of interest bearing liabilities of $81,338,000 for the year ended December 31, 2016, including a full year of the subordinated debt interest expense, led to the overall increase in interest expense.

Included in the net interest income for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $167,000 in income from the successful resolution of two legacy Phoenix loans acquired with credit deterioration. Similarly, $558,000 in interest income for the year ended December 31, 2015 was realized from the successful resolution of six legacy Phoenix loans acquired with credit deterioration. The income was the result of recognizing the remaining accretable and nonaccretable discounts on these loans.

Net interest margin, on a tax equivalent basis, was 3.82% in 2016 compared to 4.03% in 2015 and 3.99% in 2014. The interest rate impact of earning assets and funding sources due to changes in interest rates can be reasonably estimated at current interest rate levels, however, the options selected by customers. The future mix of the loan, investment, and deposit products in Mid Penn Bank’s portfolios may significantly change the estimates used in the simulation models. In addition, our net interest income may be impacted by further interest rate actions of the Federal Reserve. Management continues to monitor the net interest margin closely.

Provision for Loan and Lease Losses

The provision for loan and lease losses is the expense necessary to maintain the allowance for loan and lease losses at a level adequate to absorb management’s estimate of probable losses in the loan and lease portfolio. Mid Penn’s provision for loan and lease losses is based upon management’s monthly review of the loan portfolio. The purpose of the review is to assess loan quality, identify impaired loans and leases, analyze delinquencies, ascertain loan and lease growth, evaluate actual and potential charge-offs and recoveries, and assess general economic conditions in the markets we serve.

Mid Penn has maintained the allowance for loan and lease losses in accordance with Mid Penn’s assessment process, which took into consideration the risk characteristics of the loan and lease portfolio and shifting collateral values from December 31, 2015 to December 31, 2016. For the year ended December 31, 2016, the provision for loan and lease losses was $1,870,000 compared to $1,065,000 for the year ended December 31, 2015. The allowance for loan and lease losses as a percentage of total loans was 0.88% at December 31, 2016, compared to 0.83% at December 31, 2015 and 1.18% at December 31, 2014. This ratio for December 31, 2015 and 2016 was impacted by the inclusion of the Phoenix loan portfolio in the calculation, coupled with the elimination of Phoenix’s allowance for loan and lease losses in conformity with GAAP purchase accounting treatment.

For the year ended December 31, 2016, Mid Penn had net charge-offs of $855,000 compared to net charge-offs of $1,613,000 during the year ended December 31, 2015. Loans charged off during 2016 were comprised of one commercial and industrial loan for $820,000 and ten commercial real estate loans among eight relationships totaling $216,000. In addition, there were charge-offs for three consumer loans to unrelated borrowers totaling

 

110


Table of Contents

$25,000, one home equity loan for $25,000, and three residential real estate loans among two relationships totaling $4,000. The remaining $17,000 was comprised of deposit account charge-offs. These charge-offs were offset by total recoveries of $252,000 realized during 2016.

Mid Penn may need to make future adjustments to the allowance and the provision for loan and lease losses if economic conditions or loan credit quality differs substantially from the assumptions used in making Mid Penn’s evaluation of the level of the allowance for loan losses as compared to the balance of outstanding loans.

Several factors contributed to the increase in the loan loss provision expense in 2016 compared to 2015. The first element was the increase in specific allocations on criticized and classified assets during 2016. While these categories of loans declined $2,299,000 or 14 percent from $16,286,000 at the end 2015 to $13,987,000 at December 31, 2016, the specific allocations required on this pool increased $355,000 from $503,000 at December 31, 2015 to $858,000 at the end of 2016. The second element was an increase in both the special mention and substandard historical loss factors. These elements of the allowance calculation increased to 4.5% and 4.8% at December 31, 2016 from 2.2% and 4.2% at the end of 2015. The increased loss factors were the result of less favorable loss history during the look-back period. Finally, the overall growth in the loan portfolio of $76,692,000 or 10 percent, drove increased levels of both quantitative and qualitative allocations of $47,000 and $578,000, respectively during 2016.

A summary of charge-offs and recoveries of loans and leases are presented in Table 3.

Noninterest Income

2016 versus 2015

During the twelve months ended December 31, 2016, noninterest income (excluding net securities gains of $1,046,000) increased $1,090,000 or 29 percent, versus the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 (excluding net security gains of $325,000). Items of particular note are detailed below.

During 2016, Mid Penn took advantage of increased market values on securities to reposition some of its investment portfolio, including selling a large volume of longer-term and rate-sensitive CMOs, as well as certain municipal bonds and agency notes. Mid Penn realized $1,046,000 in net securities gains during 2016 as a result of these investment management activities. In comparison, during 2015, Mid Penn realized $325,000 from net gains on sales of securities.

Mortgage banking income more than doubled to $922,000 during the twelve months ended December 31, 2016, as compared to $456,000 for the same period in 2015. Increased residential real estate financing activity throughout Mid Penn’s footprint, favorably low mortgage market interest rates, and the addition of seasoned loan originators collectively contributed to the increased revenue from this business line.

Mid Penn also experienced increased origination and sales activity in Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans, resulting in gains of $470,000 from related loan sale gains during the twelve months of 2016, an increase of $218,000 or 87 percent compared to SBA loan sales gains of $252,000 for the same period in 2015. More qualified borrowers continue to take advantage of Mid Penn’s Preferred Lender status with the SBA.

Mid Penn also recognized $317,000 in merchant services income during the twelve months ended December 31, 2016, an increase of $82,000 or 35 percent compared to $235,000 of merchant services income for the same period in 2015. This increase reflects the efforts of the commercial and retail sales team to continue enrolling new participating merchants throughout Mid Penn’s markets.

Other noninterest income increased $217,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016 compared to the twelve months ended December 31, 2015. Included in 2016 other income was $86,000 from the gain on the sale of insurance policies upon the dissolution of Mid Penn Insurance Services, LLC, a then wholly-owned subsidiary of Mid Penn Bank, effective March 1, 2016. The decision was made to liquidate the subsidiary due to the lack of consistent profitability and growth.

2015 versus 2014

During the twelve months ended December 31, 2015, noninterest income, excluding securities gains of $325,000 increased $682,000 or 22 percent, versus the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, excluding security gains of $168,000. The twelve months ended December 31, 2015 was positively impacted by the addition of Phoenix to the income stream. Items of particular note are detailed below.

Table of Contents

Income from fiduciary activities for 2015 was $466,000, an $86,000 or 16 percent decrease from $552,000 in 2014. This is primarily attributable to a change in the commission structure on the sale of third-party mutual funds and annuities to Mid Penn Bank’s retail and commercial customers. Assets under management in the areas of Trust and Wealth Management decreased from $46,859,000 at the end of 2014 to $42,891,000 at the end of 2015 and are not a component of Mid Penn’s consolidated balance sheets.

Mid Penn recognized gains on sale of investment securities in 2015 of $325,000 as a result of efforts to better align the portfolio for a rising interest rate environment, up $157,000 from the $168,000 recorded in 2014.

Earnings on bank-owned life insurance increased $68,000 or 34 percent, to $269,000 during 2015 over earnings of $201,000 in 2014. This increase was from the addition of a pool of employee split-dollar policies acquired in the Phoenix acquisition.

Mortgage banking activity increased $143,000 or 46 percent to $456,000 during 2014 from $313,000 in 2014. Improved real estate activity throughout Mid Penn’s footprint and favorable interest rate conditions have contributed to increasing revenue from this business line.

Mid Penn has experienced significant activity in SBA loans during 2015 as more qualified borrowers have taken advantage of Mid Penn’s Preferred Lender status with the SBA. During 2015, this business activity generated $252,000 in fee income, an increase of $133,000 or 112 percent versus the twelve months ended December 31, 2014.

An increase in Letter of Credit fees of $40,000 in 2015 aided in the increase in other income of $140,000 or 27 percent from 2014.

Noninterest Expense

2016 versus 2015

During the year ended December 31, 2016, noninterest expenses totaled $28,818,000, an increase of $2,059,000 or 8 percent compared to $26,759,000 for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Salaries and employee benefit expenses increased $1,521,000 during the twelve months ended December 31, 2016 versus the same period in 2015. The increase primarily was attributable to franchise expansion, including (i) the addition of employees from the March 1, 2015 Phoenix acquisition, (ii) staff added to serve in Mid Penn’s branch in the Mechanicsburg, PA market, which opened in June 2015, and (iii) an increase in lending personnel, credit support staff, and executive management in alignment with Mid Penn’s core banking growth.

In connection with the acquisition of Phoenix, Mid Penn incurred $762,000 of nonrecurring merger-related expenses during 2015, while no merger-related expenses were incurred in 2016.

Pennsylvania bank shares tax expense increased $240,000 during the twelve months ended December 31, 2016 versus the same period in 2015 due to the Phoenix acquisition and the resultant increase in the capital base used to determine the annual shares tax.

Occupancy and Equipment expenses increased $329,000 during 2016 versus 2015. The increase is primarily attributable to both added facilities from the Phoenix acquisition, newer offices in Mechanicsburg, PA and Lancaster County, PA, and increased depreciation expense on information technology related enhancements.

Mid Penn benefited from lower loan collection costs in 2016, which are reported in other expenses. These loan collection costs were $306,000 during 2015, but decreased $128,000 or 42 percent to $178,000 during 2016 as the pool of nonperforming credits continued to decrease.

Included in other expenses in 2016 was a $142,000 impairment charge recorded on an asset held for sale and $17,000 in prepayment penalties on long-term FHLB Advances, while there were no impairment charges or prepayment penalties recorded in 2015.

2015 versus 2014

Noninterest expenses increased $6,065,000 or 29 percent, during the twelve months ended December 31, 2015, versus the same period in 2014. Both periods were impacted by the addition of Phoenix to the expense stream or related merger expenses. Items of particular note are detailed below.

Salaries and employee benefits increased during the year ended December 31, 2015 by $3,164,000 or 29 percent, versus 2014. The increase was driven by the addition of the Phoenix employees to Mid Penn’s employee pool, an increase in staffing levels due to Mid Penn’s entry into the Lancaster County and Mechanicsburg markets, and an increase in lending personnel and support staff to augment the expanding reach of Mid Penn.

Occupancy expense increased $634,000 to $1,947,000 in 2015. In addition to the occupancy expenses from the three leased and three owned properties acquired in the Phoenix transaction, this increase was impacted by the inclusion of rent for the new Corporate Administration offices on North Front Street in Harrisburg, and the new Elizabethtown and Simpson Ferry Road branch offices.

Legal and professional fees increased $72,000 or 14 percent, during the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014. This was due to the increase in consultant fees incurred for cyber penetration testing of Mid Penn’s computer network, implementation of Mid Penn’s mobile banking app, routine legal fees generated through the normal conduct of business, and the periodic examination of potential merger and acquisition opportunities as they became available.

Marketing and advertising expense increased $225,000 in 2015 to $533,000 from $308,000 in 2014. This increase is primarily the result of rebranding efforts in the Phoenix footprint to bring Mid Penn’s style of community banking to the new region.

Equipment, Pennsylvania Bank Shares tax, software licensing, telephone, and other expenses all saw increases related to the inclusion of Phoenix’s normal operating expenses to Mid Penn’s expense stream year-to-date.

Merger and acquisition expenses in connection with the acquisition of Phoenix increased $189,000 to $762,000 in 2015 versus $573,000 in 2014. All expenses in connection with the merger have been recognized.

Investments

Mid Penn’s investment portfolio is utilized primarily to provide liquidity and collateral, while also being managed to provide additional interest income within reasonable risk parameters.

Mid Penn’s entire portfolio of investment securities at December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were considered available for sale. As such, the investments are recorded at fair value. The investments are valued at a market price relative to investments of the same type with similar maturity dates. As the interest rate environment of these securities changes, the value of securities changes accordingly.

At December 31, 2016, the unrealized loss on investment securities resulted in a decrease in shareholders’ equity of $2,919,000 (unrealized loss on securities of $4,423,000 less deferred income tax benefit of $1,504,000). At December 31, 2015, the unrealized gain on investment securities resulted in an increase in shareholders’ equity of $1,565,000 (unrealized gain on securities of $2,371,000 less deferred income taxes of $806,000). Mid Penn does not have any significant concentrations of non-governmental securities within its investment portfolio. Table 6 provides a summary of our available-for-sale investment securities.

Loans

At December 31, 2016, loans and leases increased $77,411,000 to $813,924,000 or 11 percent, from December 31, 2015. The main driver of Mid Penn’s loan growth was in the commercial loan area, specifically in commercial and industrial and commercial real estate loans. Mid Penn has expanded its commercial lending scope over the past few years, including adding two agricultural lenders in 2016, and has a complete team of professional lenders who focus their efforts on developing and maintaining complete business relationships.

At December 31, 2016, loans, net of unearned income, represented 83 percent of earning assets, compared to 84 percent on December 31, 2015, and 79 percent on December 31, 2014.

Mid Penn Bank’s loan portfolio is diversified among individuals and small and medium-sized businesses generally located within Mid Penn Bank’s primary market area of Cumberland, Dauphin, Lancaster, Luzerne, Northumberland, and Schuylkill Counties. Commercial real estate, construction, and land development loans are collateralized mainly by mortgages on the income-producing real estate or land involved. Commercial, industrial,

and agricultural loans are primarily made to business entities and may be secured by business assets, including commercial real estate, or may be unsecured. Residential real estate loans are secured by liens on the residential property. Consumer loans include installment loans, lines of credit and home equity loans. Mid Penn Bank has no significant concentration of credit to any one borrower. Mid Penn Bank’s highest concentration of credit by loan type is in commercial real estate financings.

A distribution of Mid Penn Bank’s loan portfolio according to major loan classification is shown in Table 8.

Credit Quality, Credit Risk, and Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

Other than as described herein, Mid Penn does not believe there are any significant credit-related trends, events or uncertainties relating to its loan portfolio that are reasonably expected to have a material impact on future

results of operations, liquidity, or capital resources. Further, based on known information, Mid Penn believes that the effects of current and past economic conditions and other unfavorable business conditions may influence certain borrowers’ abilities to comply with their repayment terms. Mid Penn continues to monitor the financial strength of these borrowers constantly and does not engage in practices which may be used to artificially shield certain borrowers from the negative economic or business cycle effects that may compromise their ability to repay. Mid Penn does not normally structure construction loans with interest reserve components, or perform commercial real estate or other type of loan workouts whereby an existing loan was restructured into multiple new loans. Also, Mid Penn does not extend loans at maturity solely due to the existence of guarantees, without recognizing the credit as impaired. While the existence of a guarantee may be a mitigating factor in determining the proper level of allowance once impairment has been identified, the guarantee does not affect the impairment analysis.

Mid Penn assesses a specific allocation for both commercial loans and commercial real estate loans prior to charging down or charging off the loan. Once the charge down is taken, the remaining balance remains a nonperforming loan with the original terms and interest rate intact and is not treated as a restructured credit. During 2016, nonperforming loans increased $658,000 from $4,877,000 at December 31, 2015, to $5,535,000 at December 31, 2016 while foreclosed real estate declined $961,000 to $224,000 at December 31, 2016. The increase in nonperforming loans was offset by the decline in foreclosed real estate, causing total nonperforming assets to decrease by $303,000 to $5,759,000 at December 31, 2016 from $6,062,000 at December 31, 2015. Increased accruing troubled debt restructured loans were the leading source of the increase in nonperforming assets. The remaining improvement has primarily been the result of well-structured workout plans.

Mid Penn’s troubled debt restructured loans at December 31, 2016 totaled $3,515,000 of which $877,000 were accruing loans in compliance with the terms of the modification. $2,638,000 of the troubled debt restructured loans are included in nonaccrual loans. As a result of the evaluation, a specific allocation, and subsequently, charge-offs have been taken as appropriate. Further discussion of troubled debt restructured loans can be found in Note 8 to Mid Penn’s Consolidated Financial Statements, which are included in Item 8. As of December 31, 2016, there were no defaulted troubled debt restructured loans as all troubled debt restructured loans were current with respect to their associated forbearance agreements.

Mid Penn entered into forbearance agreements on all loans currently classified as troubled debt restructures, and these agreements have resulted in additional principal repayment. The terms of these forbearance agreements

vary and may include reductions in principal payments, reductions in interest rates, and/or repayment of the loan as collateral is sold.

     0.88     0.84

Mid Penn has not experienced any additional charge-offs on loans for which a partial charge-off had originally been taken.

Mid Penn considers a commercial loan or commercial real estate loan to be impaired when it becomes 90 days or more past due and not in the process of collection. This methodology assumes the borrower cannot or will not continue to make additional payments. At that time, the loan would likely be considered collateral dependent as the discounted cash flow (“DCF”) method would indicate no operating income is available for evaluating the collateral position; therefore, most impaired loans are deemed to be collateral dependent.

Mid Penn evaluates loans for charge-off on a monthly basis. Policies that govern the recommendation for charge-off are unique to the type of loan being considered. Commercial loans rated as nonaccrual or lower will first have a collateral evaluation completed in accordance with the guidance on impaired loans. Once the collateral evaluation has been completed, a specific allocation of allowance is made based upon the results of the evaluation. The balance remains a nonperforming loan with the original terms and interest rate intact (not restructured). In the event the loan is unsecured, the loan would have been charged-off at the recognition of impairment. Commercial real estate loans rated as impaired will also have an initial collateral evaluation completed in accordance with the guidance on impaired loans. An updated real estate valuation is ordered and the collateral evaluation is modified to reflect any variation in value. A specific allocation of allowance is made for any anticipated collateral shortfall. The balance remains a nonperforming loan with the original terms and interest rate intact (not restructured). The process of charge-off for residential mortgage loans begins upon a loan becoming delinquent for 90 days and not in the process of collection. The existing appraisal is reviewed and a lien search is obtained to determine lien position and any instances of intervening liens. A new appraisal of the property will be ordered if deemed necessary by management and a collateral evaluation is completed. The loan will then be charged down to the value indicated in the evaluation. Consumer loans are recommended for charge-off after reaching delinquency of 90 days and the loan is not in the process of collection. The collateral shortfall of the consumer loan is recommended for charge-off at this point.

As noted above, Mid Penn assesses a specific allocation for both commercial loans and commercial real estate loans. The balance remains a nonperforming loan with the original terms and interest rate intact (not

restructured). In addition, Mid Penn takes a preemptive step when any commercial loan or commercial real estate loan becomes classified under its internal classification system. A preliminary collateral evaluation in accordance with the guidance on impaired loans is prepared using the existing collateral information in the loan file. This process allows Mid Penn to review both the credit and documentation files to determine the status of the information needed to make a collateral evaluation. This collateral evaluation is preliminary but allows Mid Penn to determine if any potential collateral shortfalls exist.

Larger groups of small-balance loans, such as residential mortgages and consumer installment loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, individual consumer and residential loans are not separately identified for impairment disclosures unless such loans are the subject of a restructuring agreement.

Mid Penn’s rating system assumes any loans classified as substandard nonaccrual to be impaired, and most of these loans are considered collateral dependent; therefore, most of Mid Penn’s impaired loans, whether reporting a specific allocation or not, are considered collateral dependent.

It is Mid Penn’s policy to obtain updated third party valuations on all impaired loans collateralized by real estate as soon as practically possible of the credit being classified as substandard non-accrual. Prior to receipt of the updated real estate valuation Mid Penn will use any existing real estate valuation to determine any potential allowance issues; however no allowance recommendation will be made until such time as Mid Penn is in receipt of the updated valuation. The Asset Recovery department employs an electronic tracking system to monitor the receipt of and need for updated appraisals. To date, there have been no material time lapses noted with the above processes.

In some instances Mid Penn is not holding real estate as collateral and is relying on business assets (personal property) for repayment. In these circumstances a collateral inspection is performed by Mid Penn personnel to determine an estimated value. The value is based on net book value, as provided by the financial statements, and discounted accordingly based on determinations made by management. Occasionally, Mid Penn will employ an outside service to provide a fair estimate of value based on auction or private sales. Management reviews the estimates of these third parties and discounts them accordingly based on management’s judgment, if deemed necessary.

For impaired loans with no valuation allowance required, Mid Penn’s practice of obtaining independent third party market valuations on the subject property as soon as practically possible of being placed on nonaccrual status sometimes indicates that the loan to value ratio is sufficient to obviate the need for a specific allocation in spite of significant deterioration in real estate values in Mid Penn’s primary market area. These circumstances are determined on a case by case analysis of the impaired loans.

Mid Penn actively monitors the values of collateral on impaired loans. This monitoring may require the modification of collateral values over time or changing circumstances by some factor, either positive or negative, from the original values. All collateral values will be assessed by management at least every 12 months for possible revaluation by an independent third party.

Mid Penn had $6,453,000 in loans deemed impaired at December 31, 2016. Excluding $1,231,000 in loans acquired with credit deterioration from the Phoenix acquisition, Mid Penn had several loan relationships deemed impaired with an aggregate carrying balance of $5,222,000. This pool of loans was further broken down into a group of loans with an aggregate carrying balance of $2,915,000 for which specific allocations totaling $858,000 were included within the loan loss reserve for these loans. The remaining $2,307,000 of loans required no specific allocation within the loan loss reserve. Of the $5,222,000 of impaired loan relationships, excluding the loans acquired with credit deterioration from the Phoenix acquisition, $3,246,000 were commercial real estate relationships, $916,000 were residential relationships, $860,000 were commercial real estate-construction relationships, $140,000 were home equity relationships, and $60,000 were commercial and industrial relationships. There were specific loan loss reserve allocations of $711,000 against the commercial real estate

 

120


Table of Contents

relationships, $72,000 against commercial real estate-construction, $68,000 against residential mortgage, $6,000 against the commercial and industrial relationships, and $1,000 against home equity relationships. Management currently believes that the specific reserves are adequate to cover probable future losses related to these relationships.

The allowance for loan losses is a reserve established in the form of a provision expense for loan and lease losses and is reduced by loan charge-offs net of recoveries. In conjunction with an internal loan review function that operates independently of the lending function, management monitors the loan portfolio to identify risk on a monthly basis so that an appropriate allowance is maintained. Based on an evaluation of the loan portfolio, management presents a monthly review of the allowance for loan and lease losses to the Mid Penn board of directors, indicating any changes in the allowance since the last review. In making the evaluation, management considers the results of recent regulatory examinations, which typically include a review of the allowance for loan and lease losses an integral part of the examination process. As part of the examination process, federal or state regulatory agencies may require Mid Penn to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination, which may not be currently available to management.

In establishing the allowance, management evaluates on a quantitative basis individual classified loans and nonaccrual loans, and determines an aggregate reserve for those loans based on that review. In addition, an allowance for the remainder of the loan and lease portfolio is determined based on historical loss experience within certain components of the portfolio. These allocations may be modified if current conditions indicate that loan and lease losses may differ from historical experience.

In addition, a portion of the allowance is established for losses inherent in the loan and lease portfolio which have not been identified by the quantitative processes described above. This determination inherently involves a higher degree of subjectivity, and considers risk factors that may not have yet manifested themselves in historical loss experience. These factors include:

 

    changes in international, national, regional, and local economic and business conditions and developments that affect the collectability of the portfolio, including the condition of various market segments;

 

    changes in the volume and severity of past due loans, the volume of nonaccrual loans, and the volume and severity of adversely classified or graded loans;

 

    changes in the value of underlying collateral for collateral-dependent loans;

 

    changes in the experience, ability, and depth of lending management and other relevant staff;

 

    changes in lending policies and procedures, including changes in underwriting standards and collection, charge-off, and recovery practices not considered elsewhere in estimating credit losses;

 

    changes in the quality of the institution’s loan review system;

 

    changes in the nature and volume of the portfolio and in the terms of loans;

 

    the effect of other external factors such as competition and legal and regulatory requirements on the level of estimated credit losses in the institution’s existing portfolio; and

 

    the existence and effect of any concentrations of credit and changes in the level of such concentrations.

While the allowance for loan and lease losses is maintained at a level believed to be adequate by management to provide for probable losses inherent in the loan and lease portfolio, determination of the allowance is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. Changes in these estimates may impact the provisions charged to expense in future periods.

Management believes, based on information currently available, that the allowance for loan and lease losses of $7,183,000 as of December 31, 2016 is adequate to cover specifically identifiable loan losses, as well as estimated losses inherent in our portfolio for which certain losses are probable but not specifically identifiable.

The allocation of the allowance for loan and lease losses among the major classifications is shown in Table 12 as of December 31 of each of the past five years.

The growth in the loan portfolio during 2016, as well as an increase in specific allocations on impaired loans, resulted in a larger allowance in 2016. See also the discussion in the Provision for Loan and Lease Losses section.

The allowance for loan and lease losses at December 31, 2016 was $7,183,000 or 0.88%, of total loans (less unearned discount) as compared to $6,168,000 or 0.83%, at December 31, 2014, and $6,716,000 or 1.18%, at December 31, 2014. This ratio at December 31, 2015 and 2016 was impacted in 2015 by the inclusion of the Phoenix loan portfolio in the calculation, coupled with the elimination of Phoenix’s allowance for loan and lease losses in conformity with GAAP purchase accounting treatment.

Deposits and Other Funding Sources

Mid Penn’s primary source of funds are deposits. Total deposits at December 31, 2016 increased by $158,330,000 or 20 percent, over December 31, 2015, which increased by $139,121,000 or 22 percent, over December 31, 2014. During 2016, all deposit categories increased, mainly due to both strong cash management and retail growth. Average balances and average interest rates applicable to the major classifications of deposits for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 are presented in Table 13.

Average short-term borrowings for 2016 were $2,370,000 compared to $13,184,000 in 2015. These short-term borrowings consisted of federal funds purchased. As of December 31, 2016, Mid Penn had no short-term borrowings outstanding.

At December 31, 2016, Mid Penn Bank had $13,567,000 in brokered time deposits, an increase of $2,399,000 or 21 percent, over December 31, 2015, which increased by $6,706,000 or 150.3%, over the same period in 2014. The increase in brokered deposits in 2015 was mainly due to the brokered certificates of deposits Mid Penn acquired from Phoenix, which totaled $6,221,000 at December 31, 2015.

Capital Resources

Shareholders’ equity, or capital, is evaluated in relation to total assets and the risk associated with those assets. The detailed computation of Mid Penn’s regulatory capital ratios can be found in Note 18 of Item 8, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The greater a corporation’s capital resources, the more likely it is to meet its cash obligations and absorb unforeseen losses. Too much capital, however, indicates that not enough of the corporation’s earnings have been invested in the continued growth of the business or paid to shareholders. The buildup makes it difficult for a corporation to offer a competitive return on the shareholders’ capital going forward. For these reasons capital adequacy has been, and will continue to be, of paramount importance.

Shareholders’ equity increased in 2016 by $399,000 or 1 percent, following an increase in 2015 of $10,938,000 or 18 percent, and an increase in 2014 of $6,214,000 or 12 percent. Capital was positively impacted in 2016 by the net income available to common shareholders of $7,804,000 but this increase was offset by the other comprehensive loss of $4,665,000 and dividend payments of $2,875,000. The primary source of Mid Penn’s other comprehensive loss in 2016 was the change in unrealized losses on available-for-sale investments held primarily to support public deposit pledging requirements. These unrealized losses are not other-than-temporary-impairments, but relate to the price changes of securities from significant yield curve increases which occurred during the fourth quarter of 2016. In 2015 capital was positively impacted by the issuance of 723,851 shares of common stock valued at $11,292,000 as merger consideration in the Phoenix acquisition, as well as an increase in retained earnings from the normal operations of Mid Penn. Mid Penn also used the $7,500,000 in net proceeds from the issuance and sale of its subordinated notes to redeem all of its Series B Preferred Stock for an aggregate redemption price of $5,123,000 and Series C Preferred Stock for an aggregate redemption price of $1,754,000. These redemptions negatively impacted shareholders’ equity in 2015. Capital was positively impacted in 2014 by the net income available to common shareholders of $5,701,000 and other comprehensive income of $2,385,000.

Mid Penn’s current intent for dividend payout is to provide quarterly cash returns to shareholders and earnings retention at a level sufficient to finance future growth. For additional information, see “Part II—Item 5—Market

The dividends paid and declared on common shares totaled $0.58 and $0.68, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2016. Dividends paid and declared totaled $0.44 for the year ended December 31, 2015 and $0.45 for the year ended December 31, 2014. The dividend payout ratio, which represents the percentage of annual net income returned to shareholders in the form of cash dividends, was 31.43% for 2016 and 29.93% for 2015.

Between September 26, 2012 and January 3, 2013, Mid Penn issued, via a private placement, 5,000 shares of its 7% Non-Cumulative Non-Voting Non-Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B (“Series B Preferred Stock”), resulting in total gross proceeds of $5,000,000. On December 9, 2015, Mid Penn, using a portion of the proceeds from the offering of the subordinated notes described below, redeemed all of its issued and outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock at a price equal to $1,024.67 per share, which is equal to $1,020 per share plus an amount equal to declared but unpaid dividends on December 9, 2015, for a total redemption price of $5,123,000.

Small Business Lending Fund Preferred Shares

On March 1, 2015, Mid Penn assumed all of the issued and outstanding shares of Phoenix with respect to 1,750 shares of Phoenix’s preferred stock issued to the Treasury in connection with the Small Business Lending Fund (“SBLF”) and issued 1,750 shares of SBLF Preferred Shares, having a $1,000 liquidation preference per share, to the Treasury. The SBLF Preferred Shares qualified as Tier 1 Capital and had terms and conditions identical to those shares of preferred stock issued by Phoenix to the Treasury. Mid Penn paid noncumulative dividends quarterly on January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1. The dividend rate was 1.00% per annum for payment dates up to its redemption. On December 15, 2015, Mid Penn, using a portion of the proceeds from the offering of subordinated notes described below, redeemed all of the outstanding shares of its SBLF Preferred Shares held by the Treasury for an aggregate redemption price of $1,754,000 including accrued but unpaid dividends.

Subordinated Debt

On November 9, 2015, Mid Penn entered into agreements with investors to purchase $7,500,000 aggregate principal amount of its Subordinated Notes (the “Notes”) due 2025. The Notes are treated as Tier 2 capital for regulatory capital purposes. The offering closed in December 2015.

The Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.15% per year for the first five years and then float at the Wall Street Journal’s Prime Rate plus 0.50%, provided that the interest rate applicable to the outstanding principal balance will at no times be less than 4.0%. Interest is paid quarterly in arrears on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning on January 1, 2016. The Notes will mature on December 9, 2025 and are redeemable in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, at any time on or after December 9, 2020, and prior to December 9, 2025. Additionally, Mid Penn may redeem the Notes in whole at any time, or in part from time to time, upon at least 30 days’ notice if: (i) a change or prospective change in law occurs that could prevent Mid Penn from deducting interest payable on the Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes; (ii) an event occurs that precludes the Notes from being recognized as Tier 2 capital for regulatory capital purposes; or (iii) Mid Penn becomes required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, in each case at 100% of the principal amount of the subordinated notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to but excluding the date of redemption.

Holders of the Notes may not accelerate the maturity of the Notes, except upon Mid Penn’s or Mid Penn Bank’s, its principal banking subsidiary’s, bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, receivership, or similar event.

Federal Income Taxes

Federal income tax expense for 2016 was $2,277,000 compared to $1,644,000 in 2015 and $1,462,000 in 2014. The effective tax rate was 23% in 2016 and 20% in both 2015 and 2014. The increased effective tax rate was the result of higher pre-tax earnings and a larger amount in the higher incremental tax bracket.

Liquidity

Mid Penn’s asset-liability management policy addresses the management of Mid Penn’s liquidity position and its ability to raise sufficient funds to meet deposit withdrawals, fund loan growth and meet other operational needs. Mid Penn utilizes its investments as a source of liquidity, along with deposit growth and increases in borrowings. (See Deposits and Other Funding Sources which appears earlier in this discussion.) Liquidity from investments is provided primarily through investment calls and sales, and from investments and interest-bearing balances with maturities of one year or less.

Mid Penn Bank has short-term borrowing capacity from the FHLB for overnight borrowings up to Mid Penn Bank’s unused borrowing capacity of $404,244,000 at December 31, 2016, upon satisfaction of any stock

purchase requirements of the FHLB. This line is collateralized by certain qualifying loans and investment securities of Mid Penn Bank. Mid Penn Bank also has unused lines of credit with correspondent banks amounting to $15,000,000 at December 31, 2016.

Major sources of cash in 2016 came from the $111,390,000 proceeds from the sales of investments securities and the increase in deposits of $158,330,000.

Major uses of cash in 2016 were the purchases of investment securities of $142,861,000 and the increase in loans of $77,795,000.

Major sources of cash in 2015 came from the $37,142,000 proceeds from the sales of investments securities, the increase in short-term borrowings of $31,018,000 and the increase in deposits of $15,883,000, which excludes the deposits assumed in the Phoenix acquisition.

Major uses of cash in 2015 were the increase in loans of $60,043,000, excluding the loans acquired in the Phoenix acquisition, the purchases of investment securities of $35,858,000 and long-term debt repayments of $16,226,000.

We are not aware of any other commitments or contingent liabilities which may have a material adverse impact on Mid Penn’s liquidity or capital resources.

Effects of Inflation

A bank’s asset and liability structure is substantially different from that of an industrial company in that virtually all assets and liabilities of a bank are monetary in nature. Management believes the impact of inflation on its financial results depends principally upon Mid Penn’s ability to manage the balance sheet sensitivity to changes in interest rates and, by such reaction, mitigate the inflationary impact on performance. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or at the same magnitude as the prices of other goods and services. As discussed previously, Management seeks to manage the relationship between interest sensitive assets and liabilities in order to protect against wide interest rate fluctuations, including those resulting from inflation.

Information shown elsewhere in this joint proxy statement/prospectus will assist in the understanding of how Mid Penn is positioned to react to changing interest rates and inflationary trends. In particular, the summary of net liabilities, as well as the composition of loans, investments and deposits should be considered.

Off-Balance Sheet Items

Mid Penn makes contractual commitments to extend credit and extends lines of credit, which are subject to Mid Penn’s credit approval and monitoring procedures.

As of December 31, 2016, commitments to extend credit amounted to $201,749,000 compared to $157,338,000 as of December 31, 2015.

Mid Penn also issues standby letters of credit to its customers. The risk associated with standby letters of credit is essentially the same as the credit risk involved in loan extensions to customers. Standby letters of credit decreased to $14,000,000 at December 31, 2016, from $15,805,000 at December 31, 2015.

Results of Operations for the Quarters Ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016

Overview

Net income was $2,345,000 or $0.55 per common share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2017, compared to net income of $2,022,000 or $0.48 per common share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2016. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, net income was $4,339,000 or $1.02 per common share, versus $3,827,000 or $0.91 per common share, for the six months ended June 30, 2016.

Net income as (i) a percent of average assets (return on average assets, or “ROA”) and (ii) shareholders’ equity (return on average equity, or “ROE”) were as follows (calculated and reported on an annualized basis):

Net Interest Income/Funding Sources

Net interest income, Mid Penn’s primary source of revenue, is the amount by which interest income on loans and investments exceeds interest incurred on deposits and borrowings. The amount of net interest income is affected by changes in interest rates and changes in the volume and mix of interest-sensitive assets and liabilities. Net interest income and corresponding yields are presented in the analysis below on a taxable-equivalent basis. Income from tax-exempt assets, primarily loans to or securities issued by state and local governments, is adjusted by an amount equivalent to the federal income taxes which would have been paid if the income received on these assets was taxable at the statutory rate of 34%.

Table of Contents

Taxable-equivalent net interest income was $9,657,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of $695,000 or 8 percent compared to the three months ended June 30, 2016. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, taxable-equivalent net interest income increased $1,360,000 or 8 percent to $19,118,000 from $17,758,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2016. Net interest income in the first half of 2017 was positively impacted by core loan growth funded by lower-cost deposits, as well as the recognition of $279,000 of loan income from the successful workout of a loan relationship that included a previous charge-off in 2010.

For the three months ended June 30, 2017, Mid Penn’s tax-equivalent net interest margin was 3.74% compared to 3.85% for the three months ended June 30, 2016. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, Mid Penn’s tax-equivalent net interest margin was 3.78% versus 3.90% for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The decrease in the net interest margin year over year was primarily attributed to the lower yield earned on the investment portfolio. For the first six months of 2017, the overall investment portfolio yield was 2.42%, compared to an investment portfolio yield of 2.91% for the same period in 2016. The reduction was attributed to Mid Penn establishing, in the first half of 2017, a $71,096,000 held-to-maturity investment portfolio comprised primarily of lower-risk and lower-yielding U.S. Treasury notes and U.S. agency mortgage-backed securities. The held-to-maturity portfolio was established to support Mid Penn Bank’s growth in public fund deposit pledging requirements.

Although the effective interest rate impact on earning assets and funding sources can be reasonably estimated at current interest rate levels, the options selected by customers, and the future mix of the loan, investment, and deposit products in Mid Penn Bank’s portfolios, may significantly change the estimates used in Mid Penn’s asset and liability management and related interest rate risk simulation models. In addition, our net interest income may be impacted by further interest rate actions of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan and lease losses is the expense necessary to maintain the allowance at a level adequate to absorb management’s estimate of probable losses in the loan and lease portfolio. Mid Penn’s provision for loan and lease losses is based upon management’s monthly review of the loan portfolio. The purpose of the review is to assess loan quality, identify impaired loans and leases, analyze delinquencies, ascertain loan and lease growth, evaluate potential charge-offs and recoveries, and assess general economic conditions in the markets Mid Penn serves.

Mid Penn has maintained the allowance in accordance with Mid Penn’s assessment process, which takes into consideration, among other relevant factors, the risk characteristics of the loan portfolio, the growth in the loan portfolio during the first six months of 2017, and shifting collateral values from December 31, 2016 to June 30, 2017.

Based upon its analysis of loan and lease loss allowance adequacy, management recorded a $100,000 loan loss provision for the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared to a provision of $395,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2016. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the provision for loan and lease losses was $225,000 compared to $735,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The amount of the loan loss provision for the first quarter of 2017 was less than the same period in 2016 as Mid Penn had net loan recoveries of $305,000 in the first six months of 2017 which substantially increased the allowance for loan loss balance. The allowance as a percentage of total loans was 0.89% at June 30, 2017, compared to 0.88% at December 31, 2016. For further discussion of factors affecting the provision for loan and lease losses please see Credit Quality, Credit Risk, and Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses in the Financial Condition section of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis.

Noninterest Income

During the three months ended June 30, 2017, noninterest income was $1,362,000 reflecting a decrease of $36,000 or 3 percent compared to noninterest income of $1,398,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2016.

Table of Contents

For the six months ended June 30, 2017, noninterest income totaled $2,798,000, an increase of $168,000 or 6 percent, compared to noninterest income of $2,630,000 for the same period in 2016.

The following components of noninterest income showed significant changes:

Income from fiduciary activities was $396,000 for the first six months of 2017, an increase of $151,000 or 61 percent compared to fiduciary income of $245,000 during the same period in 2016. These additional revenues were attributed to wealth management assets under management significantly increasing over the past twelve months as a result of successful business development efforts by Mid Penn’s expanded team of trust and retail investment officers.

For the six months ended June 30, 2017, service charges on deposits were $379,000, an increase of $66,000 or 21 percent, compared to service charges of $313,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016. This increase was driven by an increase in the volume of transactional deposit accounts, and by an increase in overdraft charges collected.

Net gains on sales of securities was $20,000 for the first six months of 2017, a decrease of $193,000 or 91 percent compared to net gains on sales of securities of $213,000 during the same period ended June 30, 2016. During the second quarter of 2016, Mid Penn took advantage of favorable market conditions and increased fair values on several securities to reposition some of its investment portfolio, including selling a large volume of longer-term and rate-sensitive CMOs, as well as certain municipal bonds and agency notes. The securities sales in the first half of 2017 also involved strategic portfolio management, but were fewer in both volume and net gain impact compared to securities sales in the first half of 2016.

Mid Penn experienced increased origination and sales activity in Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans, resulting in gains of $441,000 from related loan sales during the first six months of 2017. The gains on SBA loan sales for the first half of 2017 reflected an increase of $176,000 or 66 percent compared to SBA loan sales gains of $265,000 for the first six months of 2016. More qualified small business borrowers continue to take advantage of Mid Penn’s Preferred Lender status with the SBA.

Other noninterest income declined $73,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016. The decrease was attributed to Mid Penn realizing an $86,000 from the gain on the sale of insurance policies during the first half of 2016. The sale of the insurance policies occurred upon the dissolution of Mid Penn Insurance Services, LLC, a then wholly-owned subsidiary of Mid Penn Bank.

Noninterest expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2017 totaled $15,360,000, an increase of $1,457,000 or 10 percent compared to noninterest expenses of $13,903,000 for the first six months of 2016.

The changes were primarily a result of the following components of noninterest expense which had notable variances when comparing results for periods ending in 2017 versus the similar periods in 2016:

Salaries and employee benefits expense increased $943,000 during the first six months of 2017 versus the same period in 2016, with the increase attributable to (i) the addition of lending personnel, credit support staff, and executive management in alignment with Mid Penn’s core banking growth; (ii) added retail staff for the Oregon Pike, New Holland, and Orwigsburg offices opened after June of 2016, and (iii) increased healthcare costs from Mid Penn’s self-funded medical plan during the first half of 2017.

Occupancy expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2017 increased $195,000 or 19 percent compared to the same period in 2016, primarily due to the facility operating costs associated with Mid Penn opening three new branch offices and loan production offices in Lancaster and Franklin Counties in Pennsylvania, during the past twelve months.

Pennsylvania bank shares tax expense decreased $79,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2017 versus the same period in 2016, due to tax credits generated from Mid Penn’s increased level of Pennsylvania tax-credit-eligible donations to support education and economic development throughout the markets it serves.

Mid Penn’s FDIC assessment increased by $88,000 or 29 percent from $300,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2016, to $388,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2017, due to Mid Penn’s growing deposits and assets, which increased the base amount used to determine the FDIC insurance assessment.

Other expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2017 increased $141,000 or 13 percent compared to the same period in 2016. Other expenses increased by $239,000 or 11 percent from $2,095,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2016 to $2,334,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The change is primarily attributable to franchise expansion and an increase in the number of operating locations and the overall number of Company personnel, resulting in increased non-compensation employee expenses including travel, business meals, and other employee management expenses. Also contributing to the increase in other expenses was an increase in the amount and volume of charitable donations across the extended Company footprint, with many of these donations generating tax credits which, depending upon the credit, reduced either Pennsylvania bank shares tax or federal income tax liabilities.

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes was $769,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $593,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was 24.7% compared to 22.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $1,459,000 compared to $1,113,000 during the same period in 2016. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was 25.2% compared to 22.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2016. In addition to the increased pre-tax income in 2017, contributing to the increase in the effective tax rates for 2017, a portion of Mid Penn’s merger-related expenses of $224,000 are nondeductible for federal income tax purposes.

Generally, Mid Penn’s effective tax rate is below the statutory rate due to earnings on tax-exempt loans, investments, and BOLI, as well as the impact of tax credits. The realization of Mid Penn’s deferred tax assets is dependent on future earnings. Mid Penn currently anticipates that future earnings will be adequate to fully realize the currently recorded deferred tax assets.

Financial Condition as of June 30, 2017

Overview

Mid Penn’s total assets were $1,111,876,000 as of June 30, 2017, an increase of $79,277,000 or 8 percent compared to total assets of $1,032,599,000 as of December 31, 2016. In the first six months of 2017, Mid Penn realized favorable loan growth, primarily in commercial relationships, of $47,853,000 or 6 percent since December 31, 2016. This asset and loan growth was substantially funded by an increase in deposits of $52,095,000 or over 5 percent since year-end 2016.

Loans

Total portfolio loans (excluding loans held for sale) at June 30, 2017 were $862,307,000 compared to $813,924,000 at December 31, 2016, an increase of $48,383,000 or 6 percent (or an annualized loan growth rate of 12 percent). The main driver of Mid Penn’s loan growth continues to be commercial loans, including both commercial and industrial financing, and commercial real estate credits as noted in the table below.

Credit Quality, Credit Risk, and Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

For the first six months ended June 30, 2017, Mid Penn had net recoveries of $305,000 compared to net recoveries of $9,000 during the same period of 2016. The primary reason for this favorable net recoveries amount was that, during the first half of 2017, Mid Penn recovered $318,000 of principal, as well as collected $279,000 in interest income from the successful workout of a commercial real estate relationship that was partially charged-off in 2010.

Table of Contents

Loans charged off during the first six months of 2017 totaled $76,000 and included two residential mortgage loans from one relationship for $18,000, one commercial and industrial loan for $12,000, one commercial real estate loan for $30,000 and $16,000 in deposit account charge-offs. Mid Penn may need to make future adjustments to the allowance and the provision for loan and lease losses if economic conditions or loan credit quality differs substantially from the assumptions used in making Mid Penn’s evaluation of the level of the allowance for loan losses as compared to the balance of outstanding loans.

Changes in the allowance for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 are summarized as follows:

Other than as described herein, Mid Penn does not believe there are any trends or events at this time that are reasonably expected to have a material impact on future results of operations, liquidity, or capital resources. Further, based on known information, Mid Penn believes that the effects of current and past economic conditions and other unfavorable business conditions may influence certain borrowers’ abilities to comply with their repayment terms. Mid Penn continues to monitor closely the financial strength of these borrowers. Mid Penn does not engage in practices which may be used to artificially shield certain borrowers from the negative economic or business cycle effects that may compromise their ability to repay. Mid Penn does not normally structure construction loans with interest reserve components. Mid Penn has not in the past performed any commercial real estate or other type of loan workouts whereby an existing loan was restructured into multiple new loans. Also, Mid Penn does not extend loans at maturity solely due to the existence of guarantees, without recognizing the credit as impaired. While the existence of a guarantee may be a mitigating factor in determining the proper level of allowance once impairment has been identified, the guarantee does not affect the impairment analysis.

Mid Penn assesses a specific allocation for both commercial loans and commercial real estate loans prior to charging down or charging off the loan. Once the charge down is taken, the remaining balance remains a nonperforming loan with the original terms and interest rate intact and is not treated as a restructured credit. The following table provides additional analysis of partially charged-off loans.

Mid Penn considers a commercial loan or commercial real estate loan to be impaired when it becomes 90 days or more past due and not well-secured or otherwise not probable for collection. This methodology assumes the borrower cannot or will not continue to make additional payments. At that time the loan would be considered

Table of Contents

collateral dependent as the discounted cash flow method indicates no operating income is available for evaluating the collateral position; therefore, most impaired loans are deemed to be collateral dependent.

Mid Penn evaluates loans for charge-off on a monthly basis. Policies that govern the recommendation for charge-off are unique to the type of loan being considered. Commercial loans rated as nonaccrual or lower will first have a collateral evaluation completed in accordance with the guidance on impaired loans. Once the collateral evaluation has been completed, a specific allocation of allowance is made based upon the results of the evaluation. The balance remains a nonperforming loan with the original terms and interest rate intact (not restructured). In the event the loan is unsecured, the loan would have been charged-off at the recognition of impairment. Commercial real estate loans rated as impaired will also have an initial collateral evaluation completed in accordance with the guidance on impaired loans. An updated real estate valuation is ordered and the collateral evaluation is modified to reflect any variation in value. A specific allocation of allowance is made for any anticipated collateral shortfall. The balance remains a nonperforming loan with the original terms and interest rate intact (not restructured). The process of charge-off for residential mortgage loans begins upon a loan becoming delinquent for 90 days and not in the process of collection. The existing appraisal is reviewed and a lien search is obtained to determine lien position and any instances of intervening liens. A new appraisal of the property will be ordered if deemed necessary by management and a collateral evaluation is completed. The loan will then be charged down to the value indicated in the evaluation. Consumer loans are recommended for charge-off after reaching delinquency of 90 days and the loan is not well-secured or otherwise not probable for collection. The collateral shortfall of the consumer loan is recommended for charge-off at this point.

As noted above, Mid Penn assesses a specific allocation for both commercial loans and commercial real estate loans. The balance remains a nonperforming loan with the original terms and interest rate intact (not restructured). In addition, Mid Penn takes a preemptive step when any commercial loan or commercial real estate loan becomes classified under its internal classification system. A preliminary collateral evaluation in accordance with the guidance on impaired loans is prepared using the existing collateral information in the loan file. This process allows Mid Penn to review both the credit and documentation files to determine the status of the information needed to make a collateral evaluation. This collateral evaluation is preliminary but allows Mid Penn to determine if any potential collateral shortfalls exist.

Larger groups of small-balance loans, such as residential mortgages and consumer installment loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, individual consumer and residential loans are not separately identified for impairment disclosures unless such loans are the subject of a restructuring agreement.

Mid Penn’s rating system assumes any loans classified as substandard nonaccrual to be impaired, and most of these loans are considered collateral dependent; therefore, most of Mid Penn’s impaired loans, whether reporting a specific allocation or not, are considered collateral dependent.

It is Mid Penn’s policy to obtain updated third party valuations on all impaired loans collateralized by real estate as soon as practically possible of the credit being classified as substandard nonaccrual. Prior to receipt of the updated real estate valuation Mid Penn will use any existing real estate valuation to determine any potential allowance issues; however no allowance recommendation will be made until such time Mid Penn is in receipt of the updated valuation. The Asset Recovery department employs an electronic tracking system to monitor the receipt of and need for updated appraisals. To date, there have been no material time lapses noted with the above processes.

In some instances Mid Penn is not holding real estate as collateral and is relying on business assets (personal property) for repayment. In these circumstances a collateral inspection is performed by Mid Penn personnel to determine an estimated value. The value is based on net book value, as provided by the financial statements, and discounted accordingly based on determinations made by management. Occasionally, Mid Penn will employ an outside service to provide a fair estimate of value based on auction or private sales. Management reviews the estimates of these third parties and discounts them accordingly based on management’s judgment, if deemed necessary.

Table of Contents

For impaired loans with no valuation allowance required, Mid Penn’s practice of obtaining independent third party market valuations on the subject property as soon as practically possible of being placed on nonaccrual status sometimes indicates that the loan to value ratio is sufficient to obviate the need for a specific allocation in spite of significant deterioration in real estate values in Mid Penn’s primary market area. These circumstances are determined on a case by case analysis of the impaired loans.

Mid Penn actively monitors the values of collateral on impaired loans. This monitoring may require the modification of collateral values over time or changing circumstances by some factor, either positive or negative, from the original values. All collateral values will be assessed by management at least every 12 months for possible revaluation by an independent third party.

Mid Penn had $6,414,000 loans deemed impaired at June 30, 2017. Excluding $897,000 in loans acquired with credit deterioration from the Phoenix Bancorp, Inc. (“Phoenix”) acquisition, Mid Penn had several loan relationships deemed impaired with an aggregate carrying balance of $5,517,000. This pool of loans was further broken down into a group of loans with an aggregate carrying balance of $3,057,000 for which specific allocations totaling $1,029,000 were included within the loan loss reserve for these loans. The remaining $2,460,000 of loans required no specific allocation within the loan loss reserve. Of the $5,517,000 of impaired loan relationships, excluding the loans acquired with credit deterioration from the Phoenix acquisition, $3,651,000 were commercial real estate relationships, $968,000 were residential relationships, $571,000 were commercial real estate—construction relationships, and $327,000 were home equity relationships. There were specific loan loss reserve allocations of $893,000 against the commercial real estate relationships, $66,000 against the residential real estate relationships, and $70,000 against the commercial real estate—construction relationships. Management currently believes that the specific reserves are adequate to cover probable future losses related to these relationships.

The allowance is a reserve established in the form of a provision expense for loan and lease losses and is reduced by loan charge-offs net of recoveries. In conjunction with an internal loan review function that operates independently of the lending function, management monitors the loan portfolio to identify risk on a monthly basis so that an appropriate allowance is maintained. Based on an evaluation of the loan portfolio, management presents a monthly review of the allowance to the Mid Penn board of directors, indicating any changes in the allowance since the last review. In making the evaluation, management considers the results of recent regulatory examinations, which typically include a review of the allowance an integral part of the examination process. As part of the examination process, federal or state regulatory agencies may require Mid Penn to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination, which may not be currently available to management.

In establishing the allowance, management evaluates on a quantitative basis individual classified loans and nonaccrual loans, and determines an aggregate reserve for those loans based on that review. In addition, an allowance for the remainder of the loan and lease portfolio is determined based on historical loss experience within certain components of the portfolio. These allocations may be modified if current conditions indicate that loan and lease losses may differ from historical experience.

In addition, a portion of the allowance is established for losses inherent in the loan and lease portfolio which have not been identified by the quantitative processes described above. This determination inherently involves a higher degree of subjectivity, and considers risk factors that may not have yet manifested themselves in historical loss experience. These factors include:

 

    changes in international, national, regional, and local economic and business conditions and developments that affect the collectability of the portfolio, including the condition of various market segments;

 

    changes in the volume and severity of past due loans, the volume of nonaccrual loans, and the volume and severity of adversely classified or graded loans;

 

137


Table of Contents
    changes in the value of underlying collateral for collateral-dependent loans;

 

    changes in the experience, ability, and depth of lending management and other relevant staff;

 

    changes in lending policies and procedures, including changes in underwriting standards and collection, charge-off, and recovery practices not considered elsewhere in estimating credit losses;

 

    changes in the quality of the institution’s loan review system;

 

    changes in the nature and volume of the portfolio and in the terms of loans;

 

    the effect of other external factors such as competition and legal and regulatory requirements on the level of estimated credit losses in the institution’s existing portfolio; and

 

    the existence and effect of any concentrations of credit and changes in the level of such concentrations.

While the allowance is maintained at a level believed to be adequate by management to provide for probable losses inherent in the loan and lease portfolio, determination of the allowance is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. The unallocated component of the allowance for loan and lease losses covers several considerations that are not specifically measurable through either the specific and general components. For example, we believe that we could face increasing credit risks and uncertainties, not yet reflected in recent historical losses or qualitative factor assessments, associated with unpredictable changes in economic growth or business conditions in our markets or for certain industries in which we have commercial loan borrowers, or unanticipated stresses to the values of real estate held as collateral. Any or all of these additional issues can adversely affect our borrowers’ ability to timely repay their loans. Additionally, we have experienced continued strong commercial loan growth, including growth in newer markets where we have less of a loss history. Also, the unallocated component allocation recognizes the inherent imprecision in our allowance for loan and lease loss methodology, or any alternative methodology, for estimating specific and general loan losses, including the unpredictable timing and amounts of charge-offs, the fact that historical loss averages don’t necessarily correlate to future loss trends, and unexpected changes to specific-credit or general portfolio future cash flows and collateral values which could negatively impact unimpaired portfolio loss factors. Changes from these various other uncertainties and considerations may impact the provisions charged to expense in future periods.

Management believes, based on information currently available, that the allowance of $7,713,000 is adequate as of June 30, 2017 to cover specifically identifiable loan losses, as well as estimated losses inherent in our portfolio for which certain losses are probable but not specifically identifiable.

Liquidity

Mid Penn’s objective is to maintain adequate liquidity to meet funding needs at a reasonable cost and to provide contingency plans to meet unanticipated funding needs or a loss of funding sources, while minimizing interest rate risk. Adequate liquidity provides resources for credit needs of borrowers, for depositor withdrawals, and for funding corporate operations. Sources of liquidity are as follows:

 

    a growing core deposit base;

 

    proceeds from the sale or maturity of investment securities;

 

    proceeds from interest-bearing time deposits with other financial institutions;

 

    payments received on loans and mortgage-backed securities;

 

    overnight correspondent bank borrowings on various credit lines; and

 

    borrowing capacity available from the FHLB, the Federal Reserve Discount Window, and other lines of credit currently available to Mid Penn.

The major sources of cash received in the first six months of 2017 came from the $52,095,000 net increase in deposits and $37,667,000 in proceeds from the sales of available-for-sale investment securities.

Major uses of cash in the first six months of 2017 were $86,511,000 for investment purchases and $48,078,000 for funding the increase in net loans and leases.

Major sources of cash received in the first six months of 2016 came from the $116,397,000 net increase in deposits and the $38,501,000 in proceeds from the sale of investment securities.

Major uses of cash in the first six months of 2016 were $84,352,000 for investment purchases, $41,707,000 for the repayment of short- and long-term borrowings, and $30,054,000 for funding the increase in net loans and leases.

Mid Penn believes its core deposits are generally stable even in periods of changing interest rates. Liquidity is measured and monitored daily, allowing management to better understand and react to balance sheet trends. These measurements indicate that liquidity generally remains stable and exceeds our minimum defined levels of adequacy. Other than the trends of continued competitive pressures and volatile interest rates, there are no known demands, commitments, events, or uncertainties that will result in, or that are reasonably likely to result in, liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way.

On a quarterly basis, a comprehensive liquidity analysis is reviewed by the Asset Liability Committee and Board of Directors. The analysis provides a summary of the current liquidity measurements, projections, and future liquidity positions given various levels of liquidity stress. Management also maintains a detailed Contingency Funding Plan designed to respond to an overall decline in the financial condition of the banking industry or a problem specific to Mid Penn.

Subordinated Debt

On November 9, 2015, Mid Penn entered into agreements with investors to purchase $7,500,000 aggregate principal amount of its Notes due 2025. The Notes are treated as Tier 2 capital for regulatory capital purposes. The offering closed in December 2015.

The Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.15% per year for the first five years and then float at the Wall Street Journal’s Prime Rate plus 0.50%, provided that the interest rate applicable to the outstanding principal balance will at no time be less than 4.0%. Interest is paid quarterly in arrears on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning on January 1, 2016. The Notes will mature on December 9, 2025 and are redeemable in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, at any time on or after December 9, 2020, and prior to December 9, 2025. Additionally, Mid Penn may redeem the Notes in whole at any time, or in part from time to time, upon at least 30 days’ notice if: (i) a change or prospective change in law occurs that could prevent Mid Penn from deducting interest payable on the Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes; (ii) an event occurs that precludes the Notes from being recognized as Tier 2 capital for regulatory capital purposes; or (iii) Mid Penn becomes required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, in each case at 100% of the principal amount of the subordinated notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to but excluding the date of redemption. The debt issuance costs associated with the Notes were $81,000 at June 30, 2017 and $86,000 at December 31, 2016.

Holders of the Notes may not accelerate the maturity of the Notes, except upon Mid Penn’s or Mid Penn Bank’s, its principal banking subsidiary’s, bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, receivership, or similar event.

Regulatory Capital Changes

In July 2013, the federal banking agencies issued final rules to implement the Basel III regulatory capital reforms and changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act. The phase-in period for community banking organizations began

The final rules implemented higher minimum capital requirements, added a new common equity Tier 1 capital requirement, and established criteria that instruments must meet to be considered common equity Tier 1 capital, additional Tier 1 capital or Tier 2 capital. Under the new rules, in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions (including dividend payments and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers), a banking organization must hold a capital conservation buffer comprised of common equity Tier 1 capital above its minimum risk-based capital requirements, which amount must be greater than 2.5% of total risk-weighted assets at January 1, 2019. The phase-in period for the capital conservation and countercyclical capital buffers for all banking organizations began on January 1, 2016 at the 0.625%. A summary of the payout restrictions based on the capital conservation buffer is as follows:

 

Capital Conservation Buffer

(as a % of risk-weighted assets)

  

Maximum Payout

(as a % of eligible retained income)

> 2.5%    No payout limitation applies
£2.5% and >1.875%    60%
£1.875% and >1.25%    40%
£1.25% and >0.625%    20%
£0.625%    0%

Implementation of the deductions and other adjustments to common equity Tier 1 capital began on January 1, 2015 and will be phased-in over a three-year period. The final rules called for the following minimum capital requirements to be considered “well-capitalized” (which include the impact of the capital conservation buffer that was effective January 1, 2016):

 

     As of January 1,  
     2016     2017     2018     2019  

Minimum common equity Tier 1 capital ratio

     4.5     4.5     4.5     4.5

Common equity Tier 1 capital conservation buffer

     0.625     1.25     1.875     2.5

     8.0     8.0     8.0     8.0

Minimum total capital ratio plus capital conservation buffer

     8.625     9.25     9.875     10.5

The final rules allowed community banks to make a one-time election not to include the additional components of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) in regulatory capital and instead use the existing treatment under the general risk-based capital rules that excludes most AOCI components from regulatory capital. Mid Penn made the election not to include the additional components of AOCI in regulatory capital.

The final rules permanently grandfathered non-qualifying capital instruments (such as trust preferred securities and cumulative perpetual preferred stock) issued before May 19, 2010 for inclusion in the Tier 1 capital of banking organizations with total consolidated assets less than $15 billion as of December 31, 2009 and banking organizations that were mutual holding companies as of May 19, 2010.

Consistent with the Dodd-Frank Act, the new rules replaced the ratings-based approach to securitization exposures, which is based on external credit ratings, with the simplified supervisory formula approach in order to determine the appropriate risk weights for these exposures. Alternatively, banking organizations may use the existing gross-ups approach to assign securitization exposures to a risk weight category or choose to assign such exposures a 1,250% risk weight.

Under the new rules, mortgage servicing assets (“MSAs”) and certain deferred tax assets (“DTAs”) are subject to stricter limitations than those applicable under the current general risk-based capital rule. The new rules also increase the risk weights for past-due loans, certain risk weights and credit conversion factors.

Mid Penn has implemented these changes in determining and reporting the regulatory ratios of Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank, and has concluded that the new rules did not have a material negative effect on Mid Penn’s financial condition.

Capital Resources

Shareholders’ equity, or capital, is evaluated in relation to total assets and the risk associated with those assets. The greater a corporation’s capital resources, the more likely it is to meet its cash obligations and absorb unforeseen losses. Too much capital, however, indicates that not enough of the corporation’s earnings have been invested in the continued growth of the business or paid to shareholders. An excess capital position may make it difficult for a corporation to offer a competitive return on the shareholders’ capital going forward. For these reasons capital adequacy and capital management have been, and will continue to be, of paramount importance.

Shareholders’ equity increased by $5,169,000 or 7 percent, from $70,467,000 at December 31, 2016 to $75,636,000 at June 30, 2017. The increase was attributed to both retained earnings, and from an increase in other comprehensive income during the first six months of 2017 primarily from the unrealized appreciation (on an after-tax basis) of the available-for-sale investment portfolio since December 31, 2016.

Banks are evaluated for capital adequacy based on the ratio of capital to risk-weighted assets and total assets. The minimum capital to risk-adjusted assets requirements, including the capital conservation buffers, which became effective for Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank on January 1, 2016 are illustrated below. At June 30, 2017, regulatory capital ratios for both Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank met the definition of a “well-capitalized” institution under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, and exceeded the minimum capital requirements under Basel III.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As a financial institution, Mid Penn’s primary source of market risk is interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is the exposure to fluctuations in Mid Penn’s future earnings (earnings at risk) resulting from changes in interest rates. This exposure or sensitivity is a function of the repricing characteristics of Mid Penn’s portfolio of assets and liabilities. Each asset and liability reprices either at maturity or during the life of the instrument. Interest rate sensitivity is measured as the difference between the volume of assets and liabilities that are subject to repricing in a future period of time.

The principal purpose of asset-liability management is to maximize current and future net interest income within acceptable levels of interest rate risk while satisfying liquidity and capital requirements. Net interest income is increased by increasing the net interest margin and by volume growth. Thus the goal of interest rate risk management is to maintain a balance between risk and reward such that net interest income is maximized while risk is maintained at an acceptable level.

Mid Penn utilizes an asset-liability management model to measure the impact of interest rate movements on its interest rate sensitivity position. Mid Penn’s management also reviews the traditional maturity gap analysis regularly. Mid Penn does not always attempt to achieve an exact match between interest sensitive assets and

liabilities because it believes that an actively managed amount of interest rate risk is inherent and appropriate in the management of Mid Penn’s profitability.

Modeling techniques and simulation analysis involve assumptions and estimates that inherently cannot be measured with complete precision. Key assumptions in the analyses include maturity and repricing characteristics of assets and liabilities, prepayments on amortizing assets, non-maturing deposit sensitivity, and loan and deposit pricing. These assumptions are inherently uncertain due to the timing, magnitude and frequency of rate changes and changes in market conditions and management strategies, among other factors. However, the analyses are useful in quantifying risk and provide a relative gauge of Mid Penn’s interest rate risk position over time.

Management reviews interest rate risk on a quarterly basis. This analysis includes earnings scenarios whereby interest rates are increased and decreased by 100, 200, and 300 basis points. These scenarios, detailed in Table 16, indicate that Mid Penn would experience enhanced net interest income over a one-year time frame due to upward interest rate changes, while a reduction in interest rates would result in a decline in net interest income over a one-year time frame; however, actual results could vary significantly from the calculations prepared by Management. At December 31, 2016, all interest rate risk levels according to the model were within the tolerance limits of the Mid Penn board of directors-approved policy.

Directors and Executive Officers of Mid Penn

Governance

The Mid Penn board of directors believes that the purpose of corporate governance is to ensure that it maximizes shareholder value in a manner consistent with legal requirements and the highest standards of integrity. The Mid Penn board of directors has adopted and adheres to corporate governance practices, which the Mid Penn board of directors and senior management believe promote this purpose, are sound and represent best practices. These governance practices, Pennsylvania law (the state of incorporation), the rules and listing standards of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regulations, as well as best practices suggested by recognized governance authorities are continually reviewed.

Currently, the Mid Penn board of directors has twelve members. Under the NASDAQ standards for independence, the following directors meet the standards for independence: Robert A. Abel, Steven T. Boyer, Matthew G. DeSoto, Robert C. Grubic, Gregory M. Kerwin, Robert E. Klinger, Robert J. Moisey, Theodore W. Mowery, John E. Noone, Noble C. Quandel, Jr. and William A. Specht, III. This constitutes more than a majority of the Mid Penn board of directors. Only independent directors serve on the Audit, Compensation and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees.

In determining the directors’ independence, the Mid Penn board of directors considered loan transactions between Mid Penn Bank and the directors, their family members and businesses with whom they are associated, as well as any contributions made to non-profit organizations with whom they are associated.

The table below includes a description of other categories or types of transactions, relationships or arrangements considered by the Mid Penn board of directors (in addition to those listed above) in reaching its determination that the directors are independent.

During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Mid Penn board of directors and the Mid Penn Bank board of directors each held thirteen meetings. In addition, Mid Penn’s independent board members held one independent board meeting during 2016.

Board Leadership Structure

The Mid Penn board of directors is led by a non-executive Chairman selected by the Mid Penn board of directors from time to time. The Chairman of the Board organizes Mid Penn board of directors activities to enable the Mid Penn board of directors to effectively provide guidance to and oversight and accountability of management. To fulfill that role, the Chairman, among other things: creates and maintains an effective working relationship with the Chief Executive Officer and other members of management and with other members of the Mid Penn board of directors; provides the Chief Executive Officer ongoing direction as to Mid Penn board of directors needs, interests and opinions; and assures that the Mid Penn board of directors agenda is appropriately directed to the matters of greatest importance to Mid Penn. In carrying out his responsibilities, the Chairman preserves the distinction between management and oversight, maintaining the responsibility of management to develop corporate strategy and the responsibility of the Mid Penn board of directors to review and express its views on corporate strategy. The functions of the Chairman include:

 

    presiding over all meetings of the Mid Penn board of directors and shareholders, including regular executive sessions of non-management directors of the Mid Penn board of directors;

 

    establishing the annual agenda of the Mid Penn board of directors and the agendas of each meeting in consultation with the Chief Executive Officer;

 

    advising committee chairs, in consultation with the Chief Executive Officer, on meeting schedules, agenda and information needs for the committees of the Mid Penn board of directors;

 

    defining the subject matter, quality, quantity and timeliness of the flow of information between management and the Mid Penn board of directors and overseeing the distribution of that information;

 

    coordinating periodic review of management’s strategic plan for Mid Penn;

 

    leading the Mid Penn board of directors review of the succession plan for the Chief Executive Officer and other key members of senior management;

 

    serving as Acting Chief Executive Officer in concert with the Mid Penn board of directors or appointing an interim Chief Executive Officer until a successor is selected in the event there is a separation with the existing Chief Executive Officer;

 

    coordinating the annual performance review of the Chief Executive Officer and other key members of senior management;

 

    consulting with committee chairs about the retention of advisors and experts;

 

    acting as the principal liaison between the independent directors and the Chief Executive Officer on sensitive issues;

 

    working with the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to develop and maintain the agreed-on definitions of the role of the Mid Penn board of directors and the organization, processes and governance guidelines necessary to carry it out;

 

    after consulting with other members of the Mid Penn board of directors and the Chief Executive Officer, making recommendations to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee as to the membership of various Mid Penn board of directors committees and committee chairs;

 

    working with management on effective communication with shareholders, including being available for consultation and direct communication upon the reasonable request of major shareholders;

 

    encouraging active participation by each member of the Mid Penn board of directors; and

 

    performing such other duties and services as the Mid Penn board of directors may require.

Risk Oversight by Mid Penn board of directors

The Mid Penn board of directors oversees all business, property and affairs of Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank. The Chairman and Mid Penn’s officers keep the members of the Mid Penn board of directors informed of Mid Penn’s business through meetings and by providing reports and other materials to Mid Penn board of directors members.

In addition to the general oversight of Corporation and Bank business, the Mid Penn board of directors also reviews a comprehensive quarterly Risk Management Report, prepared by Mid Penn Bank’s Chief Risk Officer, which includes metrics and trends on ten major risk areas, including cybersecurity, asset quality, interest rate risk, capital adequacy and liquidity.

Code of Ethics

The Mid Penn board of directors and the Mid Penn Bank board of directors have adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to its directors, officers and employees. The Code of Ethics encourages individuals to report any conduct that they believe in good faith to be an actual or apparent violation of the Code of Ethics. The Code of Ethics is available under the Corporate Information section of the Investors page of Mid Penn Bank’s website at www.midpennbank.com.

Shareholder Communications

Any shareholder who wishes to communicate with the Mid Penn board of directors may send correspondence to Rory G. Ritrievi, President and Chief Executive Officer, Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc., at 349 Union Street, Millersburg, Pennsylvania 17061. Written communications received from shareholders are shared with the full Mid Penn board of directors or appropriate committee as warranted. The Mid Penn board of directors has a complaint procedure for communicating accounting, internal accounting controls and auditing matters. Complaints generated are directed to a separate mailing address, which is under the control of the Chairman of the Audit Committee. Please refer to the Corporate Information section of the Investors page of Mid Penn’s website at www.midpennbank.com for complete details.

A shareholder who intends to nominate an individual for election to the Mid Penn board of directors (other than a candidate proposed by the Mid Penn board of directors) must notify the Secretary of Mid Penn in compliance with the requirements of Article 10, Section 10.1 of Mid Penn’s By-laws. Any shareholder who intends to nominate a candidate for election to the Mid Penn board of directors must notify the Secretary of Mid Penn in writing not less than the earlier of (1) 120 days prior to the anniversary date of the initial proxy materials or of a notice of the meeting by Mid Penn in connection with the immediately preceding Annual Meeting of Shareholders (which would be December 7, 2017 for the 2018 annual meeting), or (2) the deadline for submitting shareholder proposals for inclusion in a proxy statement and form of proxy as calculated under Rule 14a-8(e) promulgated by the SEC (which is also December 7, 2017 for the 2018 annual meeting).

Committees and Meetings of the Mid Penn board of directors

During 2016, the Mid Penn board of directors maintained four standing committees: Executive, Audit and Compensation Committees, which jointly serve Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, which serves only Mid Penn. Only independent directors serve on the Audit, Compensation and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees. Current committee membership is displayed in the following table.

The function of each of Mid Penn’s committees is described below.

NOMINATING AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE. This committee identifies individuals qualified to become members of the Mid Penn board of directors; evaluates and recommends to the Mid Penn board of directors, nominees for each election of directors; and monitors and makes recommendations to the Mid Penn board of directors on other matters of policies and practices relating to corporate governance. All members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are independent (as independence is currently defined by NASDAQ listing standards). Robert C. Grubic serves as Chairman of this committee.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has a charter which is available under the Corporate Information section of the Investors page of Mid Penn Bank’s website at www.midpennbank.com. Candidates for director must be qualified in terms of education, professional experience, business contacts and special skills. Other less tangible, but equally important qualifications include general representation from the markets served, enthusiasm, maturity, reputation, compatibility with other members of the Mid Penn board of directors, diplomacy and independent judgment. In addition, candidates should have a vested interest in Mid Penn through ownership of Corporation stock. Board candidates, upon their appointment, are required to own 500 shares with the understanding that they accumulate a minimum of 2,500 shares in total by the end of their second year on the Mid Penn board of directors. The Mid Penn board of directors recognizes that its members have various abilities to acquire shares beyond the minimum threshold depending on their personal circumstances and may, in special circumstances, extend the two-year period for accumulating 2,500 shares to a longer period of time as determined by the Mid Penn board of directors. Members of the Mid Penn board of directors are encouraged to continue to accumulate shares over time to the extent possible considering their personal circumstances.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not have a formal policy with respect to the diversity of Mid Penn’s Board members. However, the committee believes it is essential that Board members represent diverse view points and experiences. In considering candidates for the Mid Penn board of directors, the committee considers the entirety of each candidate’s credentials in the contexts of these standards.

Compensation of the Mid Penn Board of Directors

Mid Penn Bank participates in the American Bankers Association Compensation & Benefits Survey, which includes a survey of director fees and benefits. Mid Penn Bank also periodically conducts a survey of director fees, committee fees and other director compensation of banks that are similar in size and in similar markets to Mid Penn Bank. The Compensation Committee reviews these surveys and recommends to the full Board any changes to the compensation of Board members for the upcoming year. The Mid Penn board of directors has final approval of the compensation of its directors. Board members, with the exception of the Chairman and Vice Chairman, received an annual Board fee of $18,000 for the year 2016. The Chairman and Vice Chairman received an annual fee of 1.75 times and 1.50 times the annual Board fee, respectively. Independent Board Meeting fees and committee meeting fees are paid per meeting attended at the following rates:

 

Independent Board Meetings

   $ 500  

Audit Committee Meetings

   $ 500  

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Meetings

   $ 400

Mr. Noone serves on Mid Penn Bank’s Asset/Liability Committee as a Board representative and receives $250 for attending meetings, of which there were five held in 2016. Mr. Ritrievi did not receive an annual fee for serving on the Mid Penn board of directors nor did he receive any fees for attending committee meetings. In 2016, the Mid Penn board of directors was paid $289,150 in the aggregate, for all Board fees and fees for committee meetings attended. Additionally, Messrs. Moisey and Quandel were paid $950 and $250, respectively, for attending Mid Penn Bank Business Development Advisory Board Meetings.

Mid Penn Bank maintains a deferred fee plan for directors, which enables a director to annually elect to defer payment of his fees until he terminates service on Mid Penn Bank’s Board. For 2016, the maximum amount each director could defer was $18,000. Participating directors may elect to receive either a lump sum or equal monthly installments in an amount equal to his deferral account (plus interest) upon retirement, early termination, disability, change in control or a hardship. If a director dies before distribution of his deferral account commences, his designated beneficiary is entitled to receive the amounts in his deferral account or the projected account balance at the time Mid Penn Bank adopted the deferred fee plan (limited by the amount of net coverage purchased by Mid Penn Bank), whichever is greater. For 2016, Messrs. Abel, Grubic, Klinger, Mowery and Noone each deferred $18,000.

In May 1995, Mid Penn Bank adopted the Mid Penn Bank Director Retirement Plan, which we refer to as the “Director Retirement Plan.” Under the Director Retirement Plan, Bank directors who terminate their service on the Mid Penn board of directors other than for cause with at least five years of service are eligible to receive a retirement benefit. The five-year service requirement is waived if a director’s service is terminated for disability or within 90 days of a change in control. The annual benefit is determined by multiplying the “base retirement amount” for the director’s position ($611.86 for the Chairman, $305.93 for all other directors, which reflect the inflationary adjusted rates for 2016) by the number of full years the member served. The plan contains an annual inflationary adjustment provision. Benefits are paid in cash on a quarterly basis and continue for 60 quarterly payments or the director’s death, if earlier.

competent, dedicated and ambitious managers whose efforts will enhance the products and services of Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank, resulting in higher profitability, increased dividends to Mid Penn’s shareholders and appreciation in market value of Mid Penn’s common stock. The main elements of compensation for 2016 for the named executive officers were base salary, bonus, restricted stock awards and retirement and insurance benefits.

Management’s Role in Determining Compensation

The Compensation Committee considers the views and recommendations of the Chief Executive Officer in making compensation decisions affecting executive officers who report to him. The Chief Executive Officer’s role in recommending compensation and compensation programs is to develop and recommend appropriate performance measures and targets for each individual, to report on the respective individual’s performance, to provide data and background material to enable the Compensation Committee to assess the labor market and to make specific recommendations on each named executive officers’ respective salary. The Chief Executive Officer does not recommend his own salary and is not present during the Compensation Committee’s or Board’s discussions or decisions regarding his specific compensation.

Compensation Consultant’s Role in Determining Compensation

In 2016, the Compensation Committee hired the independent consulting firm, Meridian Compensation Partners, LLC, which specializes in executive and board compensation. Meridian provided relevant peer data analysis and advice for consideration by the Committee in evaluating compensation for the named executive officers. The Committee also obtained an industry standard survey of compensation practices for additional consideration.

Results of Shareholder Say on Pay Vote in Determining Compensation

The Compensation Committee reviewed the shareholder response to the non-binding, advisory Say on Pay Vote in the Proxy Statement dated March 28, 2016. Since the Annual Meeting of Shareholders held in 2016 occurred after the increase in base salary was awarded in 2016, the Compensation Committee did not have the opportunity to consider the shareholders’ overwhelming approval of executive compensation as described in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis and the tabular disclosure when reviewing whether to significantly change Mid Penn’s compensation policies and practices.

The Compensation Committee did consider the overwhelming approval of executive compensation as described in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis and the tabular disclosure from the Annual Meeting of Shareholders held in 2015, and considering that the compensation and compensation programs did not change significantly, the Compensation Committee continued with its current approach of compensating executives in 2016. The Compensation Committee will consider the results of the meeting held in 2016 in awarding compensation in 2017.

Components of Compensation

Base Salary

Base salary levels are set to attract and retain executives who can further Mid Penn’s and Mid Penn Bank’s strategic objectives. Base salary is the most significant component of the named executive officers’ compensation, and the Compensation Committee reviews it every year to determine whether the salary for each respective named executive officer is at the appropriate level. As mentioned above, the Chief Executive Officer reviews each named executive officer’s performance, other than his own, in making specific salary recommendations to the Compensation Committee.

The Compensation Committee reviews the Chief Executive Officer’s performance in making a specific salary recommendation to the Mid Penn board of directors. The Chief Executive Officer and the Compensation

Committee consider the named executive officer’s general management performance; policy, procedure, and regulatory compliance; public relations; strategic objectives management; length of service with Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank; and the named executive officer’s position in making its determination of the appropriate level of base salary.

Cash Bonus Plan

The Compensation Committee established an incentive compensation plan pursuant to which our named executive officers are eligible to receive a cash bonus for the achievement of corporate performance goals and individual performance goals. In order to receive a payment under the plan, a participant has to be employed prior to September 30th of the previous year and on the date of payout, and both the corporate and individual performance goals, which include actions that can only be taken by a named executive officer between January and March of the year of the payout, must be achieved. With respect to the corporate performance goals for bonuses paid in 2016, we based incentive award opportunities on an annual company-wide budgeted net income available to common shareholders target of $6,036,000 for the year ended December 31, 2015. No specific bonus amount was set at that time, but the maximum amount payable under this plan for bonuses paid in 2016 was capped at $360,000. The Compensation Committee believes it set the performance measures for bonuses paid in 2016 such that the performance goals were aggressive and, therefore, were reasonably difficult to attain. Based upon publicly reported results for the year ended December 31, 2015, we achieved net income available to common shareholders of $6,038,000, after taking into account an accrual for the payout under this plan.

The bonus payouts ranged between 1.6% and 9.4% of such executive’s base salary amounts and are tied to both company and individual performance. In 2016, we paid a $35,000 cash bonus to Mr. Ritrievi, a $15,000 cash bonus to each of Messrs. Micklewright and Webb and Ms. Neiderer; and a $2,000 cash bonus to Mr. Williams.

2014 Restricted Stock Plan

On May 6, 2014, the shareholders approved the Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. 2014 Restricted Stock Plan. Restricted stock is common stock granted to an employee or director that does not vest until specific conditions are met. Typical conditions include performance goals for the individual or Mid Penn or the individual being required to remain employed with Mid Penn or Mid Penn Bank for a specific number of years. Once the conditions are met, then the stock vests and the employee obtains the shares without restrictions. The Mid Penn board of directors believes that restricted stock awards can serve as an important element in attracting and retaining employees and directors who the Mid Penn board of directors expects to contribute to Mid Penn’s growth and success. By compensating employees and directors with shares of Corporation stock, the employees and directors have additional incentive to ensure that Mid Penn is successful. Based on the recommendations of the Compensation Committee, the Mid Penn board of directors determines to whom specifically it grants restricted stock. The number of shares of common stock which may be issued under the Restricted Stock Plan may not exceed 100,000 shares. The Compensation Committee may suspend or terminate the Restricted Stock Plan at any time and may amend the Restricted Stock Plan at any time provided that no such amendment may be made without shareholder approval if such approval is required by law, agreement or the rules of any exchange upon which the shares of common stock are listed. In addition, no such amendment, suspension or termination may impair the rights of participants in respect of then outstanding awards awarded under the Restricted Stock Plan without their consent.

Benefit Plans Available for All Employees

Benefit plans are not tied to Bank or individual performance. The cost of providing such plans to all eligible employees and executive officers is not taken into account when determining specific salaries of the named executive officers and is seen as a cost of doing business.

Group Insurance Plans

The named executive officers participate in benefit plans that are generally available to all employees. These plans include group life insurance, group disability, health insurance and dental and vision benefits. Such plans are standard in the industry and in the geographic area for all industries, as well as necessary to compete for talented employees at all levels of Mid Penn Bank. Employees that waive medical coverage receive $40 per bi-weekly payroll. Under the group long-term disability plan, Mr. Ritrievi is unable to get the same percentage of coverage as other employees due to the maximum benefit provided for in the plan. In order to afford Mr. Ritrievi the same long-term disability coverage as other employees, a separate supplemental individual policy was purchased with the premium (and Mr. Ritrievi’s associated income tax liability) reimbursed by Mid Penn Bank.

Retirement Plan

In an effort to encourage its employees, including the named executive officers, to save for retirement, Mid Penn Bank has established a tax-qualified 401(k) retirement plan for employees. Mid Penn Bank believes that it is important to assist employees in saving for retirement and believes that by providing a mechanism to save for retirement, Mid Penn Bank is providing the named executive officers with incentive to continue in the employ of Mid  Penn Bank.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

In 2010, the Mid Penn board of directors approved an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Plan”) effective January 1, 2011, to provide eligible employees of Mid Penn or Mid Penn Bank, including the named executive officers, with an opportunity to purchase shares of common stock of Mid Penn at fair market value through payroll deductions. The Plan provides participants with a convenient method to acquire an interest in the long-term performance and success of Mid Penn, thereby providing them an incentive to ensure the success of Mid Penn.

Company Vehicle and Other Perquisites

The President/Chief Executive Officer, the Executive Vice President/Chief Financial Officer, the Executive Vice President/Chief Lending Officer, and the Executive Vice President/Chief Risk Officer are provided a company vehicle. The Executive Vice President/Chief Retail Officer receives a car allowance. Provision of a company vehicle or for a car allowance is standard in the financial services industry as executive officers frequently meet clients and business associates offsite.

Mid Penn provides a limited number of other perquisites, including club memberships, to key executives that Mid Penn believes are customary for such executives and are reasonable for both conducting business and for retaining key executives. These perquisites are a relatively insignificant portion of the respective executive’s compensation.

Accounting and Tax Treatments

There were no decisions or changes made to compensation or benefit plans as a result of accounting and/or tax treatments.

Material Differences in Named Executive Officers’ Compensation

The differential between salary levels for each of the named executives is primarily driven by their respective positions with consideration also given to the experience and time in their respective positions.

Employment and Change in Control Agreements

Change in Control Agreements

On November 1, 2016, Mid Penn entered into change in control agreements (each, an “Agreement”), with certain of its executive officers, including, Mr. Ritrievi, Mr. Peduzzi, Mr. Micklewright, Mr. Webb, and Ms. Neiderer. Each Agreement has a fixed three-year term commencing on November 1, 2016 and ending on November 1, 2019, with automatic annual one-year renewals of such Agreement thereafter, absent notice of non-renewal from either party.

In the event an executive’s employment is terminated on or within 12 months after a “change in control” during the term of the Agreement either by Mid Penn, other than for death or disability or for a reason other than “cause” (as defined in the Agreement), or by the executive after the occurrence of certain specified events of “good reason” described below, Mid Penn will pay the executive, other than Mr. Ritrievi, a lump-sum cash payment equal to two times the executive’s highest annual base salary in effect during the 12 months preceding the executive’s termination of employment. For Mr. Ritrievi, he would receive a multiple of three. In addition, the executive and the executive’s beneficiaries will remain eligible to participate, on the same terms and conditions as apply from time to time to Mid Penn’s executive management team, medical, vision and dental programs for two years (three years for Mr. Ritrievi), or a cash payment equal to the estimated after-tax cost to obtain such benefits, or substantially similar benefits, within thirty days following the executive’s termination. Payments under the Agreement would be reduced to the extent necessary to avoid an “excess parachute payment” under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code. In the event that the executive becomes entitled to and receives benefits under the Agreement after a change in control, the executive will be subject to a six month non-solicitation covenant. In the event that the executive voluntarily terminates employment during the term of the Agreement prior to a change in control, the executive will be subject to non-compete and non-solicitation covenants for six months.

The specified events of “good reason” permitting an executive to terminate employment following a change in control and receive payments or benefits under the Agreement include: (i) a diminution in executive’s authority, title, duties or responsibilities following a change in control from the authority, title, duties or responsibilities existing as of a change in control; (ii) requirement that the executive perform a substantial portion of his or her duties at a location more than 50 miles from executive’s principal executive office on the date of the Agreement; or (iii) a diminution in executive’s base salary and other compensation and benefits existing as of a change in control.

If, within ninety days after a termination of executive’s employment that entitles such executive to payments under the Agreement, Mid Penn’s Board becomes aware of facts that, if known during the executive’s employment, it reasonably believes would have justified termination of such executive’s employment for cause (as defined in the Agreement), Mid Penn may refrain from paying any unpaid amounts due under the Agreement or require the executive to promptly, but in no event less than ninety days after notice to such executive of such determination by Mid Penn’s Board, repay any amounts previously paid or the value of any benefits previously received under the Agreement.

Employment Agreement with Mr. Ritrievi

On November 3, 2016, Mr. Ritrievi entered into an employment agreement with Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank, which will be for a period of three years from November 3, 2016 and will automatically renew for a total of three years on each anniversary of November 3, 2016. The employment agreement provides that Mr. Ritrievi will serve as the Chief Executive Officer and President of Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank, reporting to their respective Boards of Directors. During the term of the employment agreement, Mr. Ritrievi will serve on Mid Penn Bank’s Board and will be re-nominated for election to Mid Penn’s Board, with Mid Penn’s Board recommending such election to its shareholders, for any annual meeting of shareholders at which the Class of directors in which Mr. Ritrievi is serving will be elected. Mr. Ritrievi’s service as Director of Mid Penn, Mid Penn Bank and any affiliate or subsidiary will immediately terminate upon the termination of his employment for any reason.

Table of Contents

Under his employment agreement, Mr. Ritrievi is entitled to, among other things: (i) an annual base salary of no less than $360,488, (ii) participate in any of Mid Penn’s short-term performance plans generally made available to executives of Mid Penn or Mid Penn Bank, (iii) such stock based incentives as may be granted from time to time by Mid Penn’s Board under Mid Penn’s stock based incentive plans and as are consistent with Mr. Ritrievi’s responsibilities and performance, (iv) participate in a supplemental executive retirement plan under the terms and conditions as determined by Mid Penn Bank’s Board, (v) participate in or receive the benefits of any employee benefit plan currently in effect at Mid Penn Bank, subject to the eligibility and terms of each such plan, (vi) certain other perquisites related to paid annual vacation, personal and sick days, and use of a Corporation automobile in accordance with the automobile policy as established from time to time by Mid Penn or Mid Penn Bank. In the event that Mr. Ritrievi becomes entitled to and receives benefits under the Agreement after a change in control, he will be subject to a 12-month non-solicitation covenant. In the event that Mr. Ritrievi voluntarily terminates employment during the term of the Agreement prior to a change in control, he will be subject to non-compete and non-solicitation covenants for 12 months.

The employment agreement and Mr. Ritrievi’s employment may be terminated for cause (as defined in the employment agreement) by written notice from Mid Penn or Mid Penn Bank. If the employment agreement is terminated for cause, Mr. Ritrievi’s rights under the employment agreement terminate as of the effective date of termination. The employment agreement also terminates without further payments to Mr. Ritrievi as of the termination date, in the event of his voluntary termination of employment or death. In the case of his disability (as defined in the employment agreement), Mr. Ritrievi will become eligible for employer-provided short-term and/or long-term disability benefits, or worker’s compensation benefits, in which case Mid Penn Bank’s obligation to pay Mr. Ritrievi his annual base salary will be reduced by such benefits. Under certain other types of disabilities set forth in the employment agreement, the employment agreement will terminate six months following a determination related to such disability by Mid Penn’s Board.

In the event that Mr. Ritrievi’s employment is either involuntarily terminated other than for cause, death or disability, he will continue to receive his base salary in effect on the date of termination for a period equal to the greater of the remaining employment term or six months and participate in Mid Penn Bank’s life, disability, medical/health insurance and other benefits substantially similar to those which Mr. Ritrievi was receiving during the year prior to the date of termination for the same period described above immediately following the date of termination, or a cash payment equal to the estimated after-tax cost to obtain such benefits, or substantially similar benefits. Additionally, if Mr. Ritrievi’s employment is involuntarily terminated other than for cause, death or disability, he may elect, with respect to the automobile made available to him, to, as applicable, purchase such vehicle, assume the lease or return the vehicle to Mid Penn Bank without any further liability.

The employment agreement provides that, in the event that any amounts or benefits payable to Mr. Ritrievi under the employment agreement as a result of his termination of employment, when added to other amounts or benefits which may become payable to him by Mid Penn, would be subject to an excise tax, the amounts and benefits payable under the employment agreement will be reduced to such extent as may be necessary to avoid such excise tax.

Letter Agreement with Mr. Peduzzi

On March 12, 2016, Mr. Peduzzi entered into a letter agreement with Mid Penn Bank, in which the parties agreed that he will serve as Mid Penn’s and Mid Penn Bank’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. Under his letter agreement, Mr. Peduzzi is entitled to, among other things: (i) an annual base salary of $205,000; (ii) 1,000 shares of Mid Penn’s common stock; (iii) a $40,000 sign-on bonus, a portion of which is subject to repayment in the event Mr. Peduzzi voluntarily terminates his employment with us or is terminated for cause prior to the fourth anniversary of his employment commencement date; (iv) generally participate in or receive the benefits of the employee benefit plan currently in effect at Mid Penn Bank; and (v) certain other perquisites related to paid time off, a country club membership, and use of a Corporation automobile in accordance with the automobile policy, as established from time to time by Mid Penn or Mid Penn Bank.

Risk Analysis of Compensation Practices and Policies

Mid Penn Bank reviewed its compensation policies and practices for all employees and determined that they do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on Mid Penn or Mid Penn Bank.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

Mid Penn has no Compensation Committee interlocks. Messrs. Mowery, Abel, Boyer, DeSoto, Quandel and Specht constitute all of the directors who served on the Compensation Committee at any time during 2016. Each of them is an independent outside director. None of them is a current or former officer or employee of Mid Penn. During 2016, Mid Penn Bank engaged in customary banking transactions and had outstanding loans to certain of its directors, executive officers, members of the immediate families of certain directors and executive officers and their associates. These loans were made in the ordinary course of business and were made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with persons not related to the lender. In the opinion of management, these loans do not involve more than normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features. Rory G. Ritrievi, President and Chief Executive Officer of Mid Penn, attended Compensation Committee meetings only when and to the extent requested by the Committee. Mr. Ritrievi did not participate in determining his own compensation.

(1) With the exception of Mr. Peduzzi, all salaries paid to the Executive Officers listed were based on 27 pay periods in 2016. (In most years, including 2015 and 2014, there were 26 pay periods.) Mr. Peduzzi was hired on March 21, 2016; therefore, his salary reflects his partial year of employment with us.
(2) Represents a signing bonus that we awarded to Mr. Peduzzi in connection with his commencement of employment with us pursuant to the terms of his letter agreement, which we describe under “Employment and Change in Control Agreements.”
(3) We calculated these amounts using the provisions of ASC Topic 718. Amounts represent the full grant date fair value of the restricted stock awards granted on August 27, 2014, July 24, 2015, and July 25, 2016. Generally, the shares of restricted stock granted vest 25% on each anniversary of the date of grant (each, a “vesting tranche”), but only if such named executive officer (i) remains continuously employed through the applicable anniversary date and (ii) during each vesting tranche, purchases and holds an equal number of shares. We include the assumptions used in the calculation of these amounts in the footnotes to our audited financial statements included in our respective Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2014, 2015, and 2016.
(4) Includes the amounts on the following table that we paid to or on behalf of the named executive officers.

Retirement Plans

Mid Penn does not maintain a defined benefit pension plan for its employees. Mr. Ritrievi, however, participates in the Director Retirement Plan in connection with his service on the Mid Penn board of directors. We describe the Director Retirement Plan under the caption “Compensation of the Mid Penn Board of Directors.”

Mid Penn Bank also maintains the Mid Penn Bank Retirement Plan, which is a defined contribution plan and covers all eligible Bank employees, including the named executive officers. The Retirement Plan also has a 401(k) provision for all eligible Bank employees. Eligible employees are entitled to receive a share of Mid Penn Bank’s discretionary profit sharing contribution to the plan for a year if they are Bank employees on December 31st of that year. For 2016, the Mid Penn board of directors approved a 401(k) safe harbor matching contribution rate of 100% on the first 3% of the employee deferral contributions plus 50% on the next 2% of the employee deferral contributions, up to a maximum Bank contribution of 4%. The Mid Penn board of directors may adjust its matching rate on an annual basis at its discretion.

The Mid Penn board of directors makes discretionary contributions to the Retirement Plan based on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee. Mid Penn did not make a discretionary profit-sharing contribution for 2016. Distribution under the plan can be made to participating employees upon retirement, either normal or early retirement as defined in the plan, at death or disability of the participating employee or upon severing employment if either partially or fully vested. The Retirement Plan’s discretionary contributions and non-safe harbor contributions are subject to vesting at the rate of 20% per year after the first two years of service with 100% vesting after six full years of service. The 401(k) safe harbor matching contributions are 100% vested when made. Participants are always 100% vested in their own 401(k) contributions. As of December 31, 2016,

On July 25, 2016, we awarded restricted stock to each of our named executive officers, with the exception of Mr. Williams, under the Restricted Stock Plan, which we describe above under the caption “2014 Restricted Stock Plan.” Each named executive officer’s shares vest 25% on each anniversary of the date of grant (each, a “vesting tranche”), but only if the named executive officer (i) remains continuously employed through the applicable anniversary date and (ii) during each vesting tranche, purchases and holds an equal number of shares. In general, a participant will forfeit shares then unvested upon his or her termination of employment for any reason. Upon a participant’s death, the participant will vest in unvested shares with respect to the vesting tranche in the year of the participant’s death as if the participant remained employed and purchased and held the requisite number of shares for such vesting tranche.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Mid Penn Bank is party to a lease agreement with an entity that is an affiliate of Mr. Noone, a member of Mid Penn’s Board, in connection with a retail branch property located in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, which has a remaining initial term of 18 years. Following our acquisition of Phoenix Bancorp, Inc., Mid Penn Bank assumed a lease agreement with the same entity in connection with a retail branch property located in Frackville, Pennsylvania, which has a remaining initial term of 20 years. The aggregate lease payments to such entity, of which Mr. Noone is a 49% limited partner, totaled approximately $167,000 during 2016. In determining director independence, the Mid Penn board of directors considered these lease arrangements and concluded they do not impact the independence of Mr. Noone.

Neither Mid Penn nor Mid Penn Bank have entered into any other material transactions, proposed or consummated, with any other director or executive officer of Mid Penn or Mid Penn Bank, or any associate of the foregoing persons. From time to time, Mid Penn Bank has engaged in and intends to continue to engage in banking and financial transactions in the ordinary course of business with directors and officers and their associates on comparable terms with similar interest rates as those prevailing from time to time for other customers.

Related party transactions greater than $50,000 must be approved by the Mid Penn board of directors prior to any commitment by Mid Penn Bank to any such transaction. Directors do not participate in the discussions and are not present for voting on their own related party transactions. All of the material terms, conditions and purpose of the transaction shall be described in writing and provided to the Mid Penn board of directors, together with the written request for approval of any such related party transaction. The transaction should be reviewed and approved by the appropriate senior officer before being submitted to the Mid Penn board of directors for approval. Related party transactions for ongoing or continuing services can be reviewed and pre-approved within reasonable parameters by the Mid Penn board of directors on an as-needed basis. If the terms, pricing or conditions change so as to go outside the specified parameters cited in the request, the transactions shall be resubmitted for review and approval after the fact.

Mid Penn Bank has made loans to Mid Penn’s and Mid Penn Bank’s officers and directors and their immediate families and companies in which they had an ownership interest of 10% or more. Loans to such persons were made in the ordinary course of business, were made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable loans with persons not related to the lender and did not involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features.

THE SCOTTDALE SPECIAL MEETING

This joint proxy statement/prospectus is being furnished to Scottdale shareholders by Scottdale’s board of directors in connection with the solicitation of proxies from Scottdale shareholders for use at the special meeting of Scottdale shareholders and any adjournments or postponements of the special meeting.

Date, Time and Place

The special meeting will be held on [●], 2017 at [●], local time, at [●], subject to any adjournments or postponements.

Matters to be Considered

At the special meeting, Scottdale shareholders will be asked to consider and vote upon the following proposals:

 

  1. adoption of the merger agreement as described in detail under the heading “The Merger” beginning on page [●]; and

 

  2. a proposal to authorize the board of directors to adjourn the special meeting, if necessary, to solicit additional proxies to adopt the merger agreement.

Shareholders Entitled to Vote

The close of business on [●], 2017 has been fixed by Scottdale’s board of directors as the record date for the determination of those holders of Scottdale common stock who are entitled to notice of and to vote at the special meeting and any adjournment or postponement of the special meeting.

At the close of business on the record date there were 50,718 shares of Scottdale common stock outstanding and entitled to vote.

Quorum and Required Vote

Each holder of record of shares of Scottdale common stock as of the Scottdale record date is entitled to cast one vote per share at the special meeting on each proposal. The presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock entitled to vote at the special meeting constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business at the special meeting. The affirmative vote at the Scottdale special meeting, in person or by proxy, of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock is required to approve the merger agreement. The affirmative vote, in person or by proxy, of a majority of votes cast at the Scottdale special meeting is required to approve the proposal to adjourn the Scottdale special meeting, if necessary, to solicit additional proxies.

How Shares Will Be Voted at the Special Meeting

All shares of Scottdale common stock represented by properly executed proxies received before or at the special meeting, and not properly revoked, will be voted as specified in the proxies. Properly executed proxies that do not contain voting instructions will be voted “FOR” the adoption of the merger agreement and “FOR” the adjournment or postponement of the special meeting, if necessary, to permit further solicitation of proxies.

If you hold shares of Scottdale common stock in street name through a bank, broker or other nominee holder, the nominee holder may only vote your shares in accordance with your instructions. If you do not give specific instructions to your nominee holder as to how you want your shares voted, your nominee will indicate that it does not have authority to vote on the proposal, which will result in what is called a “broker non-vote.” Broker non-votes will be counted for determining whether there is a quorum present at the special meeting, but they will

 

169


Table of Contents

not be deemed to have been voted on any of the proposals. Abstentions and broker non-votes with respect to the merger agreement will effectively act as “no” votes on such proposal, but will not affect the outcomes of the other proposals.

If any other matters are properly brought before the special meeting, the proxies named in the proxy card will have discretion to vote the shares represented by duly executed proxies in their sole discretion.

How to Vote Your Shares

Scottdale shareholders may vote in person at the special meeting or by one of the following methods:

Voting by Mail. You may vote by completing and returning the enclosed proxy card. Your proxy will be voted in accordance with your instructions. If you do not specify a choice on one of the proposals described in this joint proxy statement, your proxy will be voted in favor of that proposal.

Voting by Internet. If you are a registered shareholder, you may vote electronically through the Internet by following the instructions included with your proxy card. If your shares are registered in the name of a broker or other nominee, you may be able to vote via the Internet. If so, the voting form your nominee sends you will provide Internet instructions.

Voting by Phone. Use any touch-tone telephone to transmit your voting instructions up until 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time the day before the cut-off date or meeting date. Have your proxy card in hand when you call [( ) - ] and then follow the instructions.

Voting in Person. If you attend the meeting, you may deliver your completed proxy card in person or may vote by completing a ballot that will be available at the meeting. If your shares are registered in the name of a broker or other nominee and you wish to vote at the meeting, you will need to obtain a legal proxy from your bank or brokerage firm. Please consult the voting form sent to you by your bank or broker to determine how to obtain a legal proxy in order to vote in person at the special meeting. Should you have any questions on the procedure for voting your shares, please contact Scottdale’s Corporate Secretary, Robert B. Ferguson, telephone (724) 887-8330.

How to Change Your Vote

If you are a registered shareholder, you may revoke any proxy at any time before it is voted by (1) signing and returning a proxy card with a later date, (2) delivering a written revocation letter to the Corporate Secretary of Scottdale, or (3) attending the special meeting in person and voting by ballot at the special meeting. The Scottdale Secretary’s mailing address is 150 Pittsburgh Street, Scottdale, Pennsylvania 15683. If your shares are registered in the name of a broker or other nominee, you may revoke your proxy instructions by informing the holder of record in accordance with that entity’s procedures.

Solicitation of Proxies

Scottdale will bear the cost of soliciting proxies for the Scottdale special meeting. Scottdale has engaged [    ] (“[    ]”) to act as the proxy solicitor and to assist in the solicitation of proxies for the Scottdale special meeting of shareholders. Scottdale has agreed to pay [        ] approximately $[        ], plus reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, for such services and will also indemnify against certain claims, costs, damages, liabilities, and expenses.

In addition to solicitation of proxies by mail, Scottdale will request that banks, brokers and other record holders send proxies and proxy material to the beneficial owners of Scottdale common stock and secure their voting instructions. Scottdale will reimburse the record holders for their reasonable expenses in taking those actions. If necessary, Scottdale may use several of its regular employees, who will not be specially compensated, to solicit proxies from Scottdale shareholders, either personally or by telephone, facsimile, letter or other electronic means.

 

170


Table of Contents

Mid Penn and Scottdale will share equally the expenses incurred in connection with the copying, printing and distribution of this joint proxy statement/prospectus for their special meetings.

Scottdale Affiliate Letter Agreements

As of the record date, directors and executive officers of Scottdale and their affiliates had the right to vote 28,913 shares of Scottdale common stock, or 57% of the outstanding Scottdale common stock entitled to be voted at the special meeting. Each of the directors and the executive officers of Scottdale has agreed to vote all shares of Scottdale common stock owned by him in favor of adoption of the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby.

Attending the Meeting

All holders of Scottdale common stock, including shareholders of record and shareholders who hold their shares through banks, brokers, nominees or any other holder of record, are invited to attend the special meeting. Shareholders of record can vote in person at the special meeting. If you are not a shareholder of record, you must obtain a proxy executed in your favor from the record holder of your shares, such as a broker, bank or other nominee, to be able to vote in person at the special meeting. If you plan to attend the special meeting, you must hold your shares in your own name or have a letter from the record holder of your shares confirming your ownership and you must bring a form of personal photo identification with you in order to be admitted. We reserve the right to refuse admittance to anyone without both proper proof of share ownership and proper photo identification.

SCOTTDALE SPECIAL MEETING—PROPOSAL NO. 1

ADOPTION OF THE MERGER AGREEMENT

Scottdale is asking its shareholders to adopt the merger agreement. For a detailed discussion of the merger, including the terms and conditions of the merger agreement, see “The Merger,” beginning on page [●]. As discussed in detail in the sections entitled “The Merger—Scottdale’s Reasons for the Merger,” and “—Recommendation of Scottdale’s Board of Directors,” beginning on pages [●] and [●], respectively, after careful consideration, the Scottdale board of directors determined that the terms of the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated by it are in the best interests of Scottdale’s shareholders and the board unanimously approved the merger agreement. Accordingly, Scottdale’s board of directors unanimously recommends that Scottdale shareholders vote “FOR” adoption of the merger agreement.

SCOTTDALE SPECIAL MEETING—PROPOSAL NO. 2

AUTHORIZATION TO VOTE ON ADJOURNMENT OR OTHER MATTERS

General

If, at the Scottdale special meeting, the number of shares of Scottdale common stock, present in person or by proxy, is insufficient to constitute a quorum or the number of shares of Scottdale common stock voting in favor is insufficient to adopt the merger agreement, Scottdale management intends to adjourn the special meeting in order to enable the Scottdale board of directors more time to solicit additional proxies. In that event, Scottdale will ask its shareholders to vote only upon the adjournment proposal and not the proposal relating to adoption of the merger agreement.

In this proposal, Scottdale is asking you to grant discretionary authority to the holder of any proxy solicited by the Scottdale board of directors so that such holder can vote in favor of the proposal to adjourn the special meeting to solicit additional proxies. If the shareholders of Scottdale approve the adjournment proposal,

 

171


Table of Contents

Scottdale could adjourn the special meeting, and any adjourned session of the special meeting, and use the additional time to solicit additional proxies, including the solicitation of proxies from shareholders who have previously voted.

Generally, if the special meeting is adjourned, no notice of the adjourned meeting is required to be given to shareholders, other than an announcement at the special meeting of the place, date and time to which the meeting is adjourned.

Recommendation of the Scottdale Board of Directors

The Scottdale board of directors recommends a vote “FOR” the proposal to authorize the board of directors to adjourn the special meeting of shareholders to allow time for the further solicitation of proxies to adopt the merger agreement.

Transactions with Certain Related Persons

Some of Scottdale’s directors and executive officers, members of their immediate families and the companies with which they are associated were Scottdale customers and had banking transactions with Scottdale in the ordinary course of business during 2016 and 2015. All loans and commitments to lend were made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other non-affiliated customers. In Scottdale’s management’s opinion, the loans and commitments did not involve more than a normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Scottdale

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The financial statements for The Scottdale Bank and Trust Company (“Scottdale”) are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and conform to general practices within the banking industry. In preparing the financial statements, management of Scottdale made certain estimates and assumptions that affected the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, at the balance sheet date, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Therefore, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Management of Scottdale considers material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for losses on loans, defined benefit pension liability, fair value of financial instruments, valuation of deferred tax assets, other-than-temporary impairment of securities, and the valuation of real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in satisfaction of loans.

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered adequate to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio. Management’s periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is based on Scottdale’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, current economic conditions, and other relevant factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective, since it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant change, including the amounts and timing of future cash flows expected to be received on impaired loans.

Scottdale maintains a defined benefit pension plan, and has recorded a related liability, covering eligible employees. Scottdale’s policy is to fund pension benefits at least annually based upon actuarial calculations of the present value of future benefits as performed by Scottdale’s third party administrator. The defined benefit pension plan’s assets are primarily invested in corporate equity securities, the valuations of which are subject to market fluctuations.

The fair value of financial instruments uses the three-level hierarchal disclosure framework defined by GAAP. The hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. For certain assets and liabilities defined as Level I, quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date. For assets and liabilities defined as Level II, pricing inputs are other than the quoted prices in active markets, with such inputs being directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. For assets and liabilities defined as Level III, valuations are derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

Scottdale uses an asset and liability approach for the accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities, and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax amounts are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, and the respective tax bases, are expected to be recovered or settled. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Valuations for investment securities are determined using quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, securities are valued based on pricing models, quotes for similar investment securities, and other observable valuation inputs, including those based upon yield curves and spreads. Securities are evaluated on a periodic basis to determine if any unrealized declines in value are deemed to be other than temporary. For debt securities, where the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the security’s amortized cost basis, management determines whether an unrealized loss in value is other than temporary by considering the magnitude and duration of the unrealized decline in value, the reasons underlying the decline, management’s intent to sell the security, and whether or not it is more likely than not that

management would be required to sell the security before the anticipated recovery of the security’s amortized cost basis.

Valuation of real estate acquired by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, which are reported on the balance sheet as Other Real Estate Owned (“OREO”), are recorded at estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell the respective real estate property.

Overview

Scottdale is a full-service commercial banking institution, supervised by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities, providing a variety of financial products and services to individuals and corporate customers through its five offices located in Southwestern Pennsylvania. Scottdale’s primary deposit products are noninterest and interest-bearing checking accounts, savings accounts, and certificates of deposit. Its primary lending products are single-family and multi-family residential loans. Lawrence Keister & Co., a Pennsylvania general partnership and related party, owned 50.9% of Scottdale’s outstanding common stock as of December 31, 2016 and 2015.

As of December 31, 2016, Scottdale had total assets of $263,476,000 reflecting an increase of $1,242,000 or less than one percent compared to total assets of $262,234,000 as of December 31, 2015. Investment securities were the largest asset class at each year end, totaling $180,590,000 at December 31, 2016, and $170,792,000 at December 31, 2015. Total loans were $63,379,000 as of December 31, 2016, and $59,210,000 as of December 31, 2015.

Scottdale’s total deposits were $215,985,000 as of December 31, 2016, reflecting an increase of $1,595,000 or less than one percent compared to total deposits of $214,390,000 as of December 31, 2015.

Total stockholder’s equity was $45,283,000 as of December 31, 2016, compared to $45,762,000 as of December 31, 2015. The year-over-year net decrease in stockholders’ equity resulted from total dividends of $1,522,000 paid during 2016 exceeding the combined amount of 2016 net income of $550,000 and 2016 other comprehensive income of $493,000.

Results of Operations for the Year Ended December 31, 2016 versus Year Ended December 31, 2015

Scottdale’s net income (“earnings”) of $550,000 for the year 2016 reflects a decrease of $326,000 or 37 percent compared to earnings of $876,000 for the year 2015. These results represent earnings per share, basic and diluted, of $10.84 in 2016 and $19.39 in 2015. The primary component contributing to the decreased earnings was the net realized loss on the sale of OREO of $782,000 in 2016 compared to a net realized gain on the sale of OREO of $6,000 in 2015. Somewhat offsetting the impact of this OREO loss, Scottdale recorded a credit for loan losses of $200,000 in 2016, when no loss or credit provision was recorded to the allowance in 2015.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is Scottdale’s primary source of revenue, and it represents the combined interest income received on loans, investments, and overnight funds, less the interest expense paid on deposits. Scottdale had no borrowings, and paid no interest expense on any borrowings, as of and for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015. Net interest income is affected by changes in interest rates and changes in average balances (volume) in the various interest-sensitive assets and liabilities.

For the year ended December 31, 2016, Scottdale’s net interest income was $6,219,000 reflecting an increase of $319,000 or 5 percent compared to net interest income of $5,900,000 for the year ended December 31, 2015. The primary sources for the year-over-year increase were (i) a $111,000 increase in interest income on investments

and federal funds sold in 2016 compared to 2015 due primarily to higher volumes of these asset classes, and (ii) deposit interest expense decreasing by $169,000 for 2016 versus 2015, due primarily to management implementing a reduction of interest rates on savings accounts, which is Scottdale’s largest deposit segment.

As reflected in the following table, Scottdale’s taxable-equivalent net interest margin was 2.92% in 2016 versus 2.88% in 2015.

Interest and average rates in the table above are presented on a fully taxable-equivalent basis, using an effective tax rate of 34%.

The taxable equivalent yield on average interest-earning assets was 3.13% in 2016 versus 3.16% in 2015, with the slight decline reflecting lower rates earned on both investments and loans, despite an increase in the volume (average balance) of both of these asset classes. The decline in taxable-equivalent average investment yields, from 2.73% in 2015 to 2.58% in 2016, was generally the result of the proceeds from matured and called bonds being reinvested at lower yields given the continuing relatively lower rates for fixed income investments of ten years or less to maturity (Scottdale did not purchase any investment security with over 10 years to maturity). The slight decrease in average loan yields, from 5.47% in 2015 to 5.26% in 2016, reflects the impact of competition and market loan rates on new production being slightly lower than both (i) the rates on maturing loans, and (ii) the average rate on the loans held in the portfolio that were originated prior to 2016.

The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 0.30% in 2016 versus 0.40% in 2015. Interest expense decreased by $1,491,000 or almost 9 percent in 2016 as compared to 2015, and all interest expense was related to

Table of Contents

deposits, as Scottdale had no wholesale borrowings at any point in the years ending December 31, 2016 and 2015. The decreased interest expense, and the overall lower average cost of funds, was primarily attributable to a reduction in savings account rates implemented during 2016 (savings accounts comprise the majority of Scottdale’s core deposit base). The continued low interest rate environment for deposits in Scottdale’s market aided in maintaining the low cost of interest bearing liabilities and savings accounts throughout the two-year period ending December 31, 2016. Additionally, Scottdale was able to increase the overall average balance of noninterest-bearing accounts for the year ended 2016, as compared to the year ended 2015.

Provision (Credit) for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is established through provisions for loan losses charged against income. Provisions for loan losses are necessary to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level considered adequate to absorb losses inherent in or as determined by management to be probable in the loan portfolio. Management’s periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance, and the need, if any, for adjustments to the allowance balance, is based on Scottdale’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, current economic conditions, and other relevant factors.

Scottdale’s allowance for loan losses consists of amounts applicable to the following loan portfolio segments: (i) residential real estate; (ii) commercial real estate; (iii) commercial; and (iv) installment. Additionally, an unallocated component of the allowance is maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses, and reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the portfolio.

Changes in the allowance for loan losses by portfolio segment, and for the unallocated component, for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, included the provision for loan losses, were as follows:

The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans was 0.87% as of December 31, 2016, as compared to 1.28% as of December 31, 2015. The decrease in this allowance coverage ratio was primarily a result of Scottdale management reducing the unallocated component of the allowance by $246,000 during the year ended December 31, 2016.

   $ 487      $ 549      $ (62      -11

Noninterest income totaled $487,000 for the year ended December 31, 2016, a decrease of $62,000 or 11 percent compared to noninterest income of $549,000 for the year ended December 31, 2015. The primary source of the year-over-year variance was a significant reduction of certain nonrecurring gains realized on investment securities. There were no sales of investment securities during the years ended December 31, 2016 or 2015. Scottdale recorded gross securities gains of $84,000 and $197,000 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, with such gains resulting from investment calls and proceeds received on securities for which Scottdale, in previous years, had recorded other-than-temporary impairment charges.

Service fees on deposit accounts for the year ended December 31, 2016 were $341,000 reflecting an increase of $51,000 or 18 percent compared to service fees on deposits of $290,000 for the 2015 year. The increased service fees reflected both an increase in the number and average balances of demand deposit accounts, which are the primary sources of deposit fee activity. For the year ended December 31, 2016, Scottdale had approximately 8 percent higher average balances of combined demand deposit balances compared to the year ended December 31, 2015. The primary types of service fees contributing to the increase included overdraft and non-sufficient fund charges, returned item fees, and service charges on demand deposit accounts.

During the year ended December 31, 2016, noninterest expenses totaled $6,254,000, an increase of $710,000 or 13 percent compared to noninterest expenses of $5,544,000 for the year ended December 31, 2015. The difference was attributable primarily to a $782,000 loss on the sale of other real estate owned in 2016.

Compensation expense (salaries) increased by $16,000 or less than one percent during the twelve months ended December 31, 2016 versus the same period in 2015, due to both the general stability of the employee base, and minor levels of implemented compensation rate increases. Employee benefit costs increased due primarily to a $43,000 increase in pension costs for 2016 as compared to 2015. Pension expense was determined based upon an actuarial valuation of Scottdale’s defined benefit retirement plan. The actuarial valuation reflected that the increase to projected benefit obligations for the year ending December 31, 2016, exceeded the actual growth in the fair value of plan assets for the same period. Scottdale made employer contributions to the defined benefit plan of $450,000 in both 2015 and 2016.

Occupancy and Equipment expenses were $47,000 less in 2016 versus 2015, despite Scottdale still fully operating five branch offices, as the facility operating costs, including repairs and maintenance, and equipment costs were lower during 2016, while Scottdale incurred no major capital expenditures during the year.

Pennsylvania bank shares tax expense decreased by 14% during the twelve months ended December 31, 2016 versus the same period in 2015, due to the level of Pennsylvania tax credits generated from qualifying charitable contributions made by Scottdale including significant levels of donations to educational institutions in the Scottdale markets.

Professional fees, which primarily include audit expenses and legal expenses, were lower in 2016 compared to 2015 due to a reduction in the usage of both outside counsel and other third-party professional services.

Other expenses, comprised primarily of advertising, supplies, postage, courier fees, and other miscellaneous expenses, was relatively unchanged during the twelve months ended December 31, 2016 versus the same period of 2015.

Federal Income Taxes

Federal income tax expense for 2016 was $103,000 compared to $29,000 in 2015. The effective tax rate was 16% in 2016 and 3% in 2015, with the variance in the effective tax rate primarily affected by the level of tax-free income and any applicable tax credits in the respective years.

Financial Condition as of December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015

Scottdale had total assets of $263,476,000 as of December 31, 2016, reflecting an increase of $1,242,000 or less than one percent compared to total assets of $262,234,000 as of December 31, 2015. The increase in total assets was generally consistent with the increase in total deposits of $1,595,000 or less than one percent, for the year ending December 31, 2016. Scottdale’s total deposits were $215,985,000 as of December 31, 2016, compared to total deposits of $214,390,000 as of December 31, 2015.

Though the overall level of total assets increased modestly, there were notable increases in earning assets. Investment securities were $180,590,000 as of December 31 2016, reflecting an increase of $9,798,000 or 6 percent compared to total investments of $170,792,000 as of December 31, 2015. Total loans were $63,379,000 as of December 31, 2016, an increase of $4,169,000 or 7 percent compared to total loans of $59,210,000 as of December 31, 2015. The combined increases in investments and loans of $13,967,000 for the year ending December 31, 2016, were substantially funded by a reduction of cash and cash equivalents during the year of $10,586,000, and funds from the sale of a large other real estate owned holding during 2016.

Total stockholder’s equity was $45,283,000 as of December 31, 2016, reflecting a decrease of $479,000 or 1 percent compared to total equity of $45,762,000 as of December 31, 2015. The year-over-year net decrease in stockholders’ equity resulted from total dividends of $1,522,000 paid during 2016 exceeding 2016 net income of $550,000 and 2016 other comprehensive income of $493,000.

Investments

Scottdale’s investment portfolio is comprised of U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. government agency securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions, corporate debt securities, and equity securities. As the largest asset class on Scottdale’s balance sheet, investments are utilized, with loans, as a significant source of interest income through yields on the securities earning a reasonable interest rate spread above the cost of Scottdale’s deposits. As a large portion of the investment portfolio is not pledged, the unencumbered securities are available for funding loan growth and supporting other liquidity needs.

Scottdale’s investments in obligations of states and political subdivisions (commonly referred to as municipal investments) were classified as held-to-maturity securities as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, as Scottdale management has the positive intent and ability to hold these debt securities until the investment’s contractual maturity date, if not otherwise called earlier if the respective security’s call rights are exercised. The following table summarizes the aggregate value of the held-to-maturity investment portfolio.

Scottdale’s loan portfolio is diversified among individuals, small-to-medium size business customers, and nonprofit and governmental organizations generally located within the Company’s primary market area of Southwestern Pennsylvania. The majority of loans are secured by either residential or commercial real estate, with smaller portfolio segments of commercial and industrial loans, and consumer installment loans.

Credit Quality, Credit Risk, and Allowance for Loan Losses

Scottdale’s management believes that the allowance for loan losses of $553,000 as of December 31, 2016 is adequate to cover specifically identified and probable loan losses, and estimated losses inherent in the portfolio for which losses are probable but not specifically identifiable. The recorded allowance for loan loss, and supporting methodology and management judgments, considers the significant credit analyses, credit-related historical performance and trends, and other significant factors, both quantitative and qualitative, relating to its loan portfolio that are reasonably expected to have a material impact on current operating results and future potential loan losses. Additionally, management recognizes that changes to both local and national economic conditions, and other unfavorable circumstances related to borrowers’ specific risk profiles, personal or business earnings, and collateral values or other sources of repayment, may influence some borrowers’ abilities to comply with their repayment terms.

The allowance for loan losses consists of specific and general components related to individual credits and homogeneous pools of loans for the following loan portfolio segments: (i) residential real estate; (ii) commercial real estate; (iii) commercial; and (iv) installment. The specific component relates to loans that are solely evaluated based upon the delinquency, and assessed a specific reserve by management. For specifically-evaluated loans that are also classified by management as impaired, an allowance is established when the carrying amount of the impaired loan exceeds the collateral value (for collateral-dependent loans) or discounted cash flows. The general component covers loans that are not delinquent or otherwise impaired, and is based upon Scottdale’s historical loan loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors. In addition to the specific and general components related to specific loans or portfolio segments, an unallocated component of the allowance is maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses, and to reflect the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the portfolio.

As of December 31, 2016, the allowance for loan losses was $553,000 or 0.87 percent of total loans, compared to an allowance of $756,000 or 1.28 percent of total loans as of December 31, 2015. The reduction in the allowance was not the result of net charge-offs, as Scottdale had only $3,000 of net charge-offs for the year ended December 31, 2016. The decrease in the allowance for loan losses and related allowance-to-loans coverage ratio was primarily a result of Scottdale management reducing the allowance by $200,000 through a credit for loan losses during 2016, including a $246,000 reduction in the unallocated component of the allowance.

Scottdale considers a loan impaired when, based upon current information and events, it is probable the borrower will be unable to make scheduled payments of principal and interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in assessing whether or not a loan is impaired include

delinquency status, collateral value and adequacy, and the likelihood of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. As of December 31, 2016, Scottdale had total impaired loans of $373,000 including $294,000 of impaired commercial real estate loans, and $79,000 of impaired commercial and industrial loans. No residential real estate or installment loans were classified by management to be impaired as of December 31, 2016. As of December 31, 2015, Scottdale had total impaired loans of $646,000, all of which was commercial real estate loans. No residential real estate, commercial and industrial, or installment loans were classified as impaired as of December 31, 2015.

Consistent with accounting and regulatory guidance, Scottdale recognizes a troubled debt restructuring, or TDR, when (i) a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, and (ii) the Company, for economic or legal reasons related to the Borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that would not otherwise be considered. Scottdale did not have any loans classified as TDRs as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, nor did it grant any TDRs during 2016 or 2015.

Deposits and Other Funding Sources

Scottdale’s primary source of funds is deposits. The Company had no wholesale borrowings, either short-term or long-term, for the two year period ended December 31, 2016. Total deposits were $215,985,000 as of December 31, 2016, reflecting an increase of $1,595,000 or less than one percent compared to total deposits of $214,390,000 as of December 31, 2015. Though total deposit levels were relatively stable when comparing balances between December 31, 2016 and 2015, non-interest bearing and interest-bearing demand deposit accounts increased, while savings and money market accounts, and time deposits, decreased during 2016.

The average cost of interest-bearing deposits was 0.30% in 2016 versus 0.40% in 2015. The overall lower average cost of funds was primarily due to a 0.25% reduction in rates, implemented beginning in July 2016 for the largest deposit category, savings accounts.

The scheduled maturities of time deposits outstanding as of December 31, 2016 are $2,974,000 in 2017, $1,235,000 in 2018, and $1,644,000 in 2019.

The year-over-year net decrease in stockholders’ equity resulted from total dividends paid during 2016 exceeding the combined amount of 2016 earnings and other comprehensive income. For regulatory and risk management purposes, capital is evaluated in relation to total assets and the risk associated with those assets. Scottdale maintained regulatory capital levels above the “well-capitalized” requirements as of December 31, 2016 and 2015.

Overview – June 30, 2017

Scottdale is a full-service commercial banking institution, supervised by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities, providing a variety of financial products and services to individuals and corporate customers through its five offices located in Southwestern Pennsylvania. Scottdale’s primary deposit products are noninterest and interest-bearing checking accounts, savings accounts, and certificates of deposit. Its primary lending products are single-family and multi-family residential loans. Lawrence Keister & Co., a Pennsylvania general partnership and related party, owned 50.9% of Scottdale’s outstanding common stock as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

As of June 30, 2017, Scottdale had total assets of $259,078,000 reflecting a decrease of $4,398,000 or two percent compared to total assets of $263,476,000 as of December 31, 2016. Investment securities were the largest asset class at each period end, totaling $174,756,000 at June 30, 2017, and $180,590,000 at December 31 2016. The decline in total investments through the first six months of 2017 was a result of securities maturing or being called, and the resulting funds were used to support the net deposit reduction for the first half of 2017. Total loans were $64,320,000 as of June 30, 2017, reflecting a modest increase of just over one percent compared to total loans of $63,379,000 as of December 31, 2016.

Scottdale’s total deposits were $210,899,000 as of June 30, 2017, compared to total deposits of $215,985,000 as of December 31, 2016, reflecting a decrease for the first six months of 2017 of $5,086,000 or two percent.

Total stockholder’s equity was $46,244,000 as of June 30, 2017, compared to $45,283,000 as of December 31, 2016. The year-over-year net increase in stockholders’ equity resulted from net income for the first six months of 2017 of $531,000 and other comprehensive income of $430,000 relating to the net unrealized appreciation, on an after-tax basis, in the fair value of the available-for-sale investment portfolio holdings as of June 30, 2017, when compared to December 31, 2016.

Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 versus the Six Months Ended June 30, 2016

Scottdale’s net income (“earnings”) of $531,000 for the first six months of 2017 reflects a decrease of $97,000 or 15 percent compared to earnings of $628,000 for the same period in 2016. These results represent earnings per share, basic and diluted, of $10.47 for the first six months of 2017, and $12.38 for the first six months of 2016. The primary component contributing to the decreased earnings was a $133,000 reduction in interest income on tax-exempt securities, reflecting both a decrease in the average balance of these investments, and an overall reduction in the yield on investments from 2.62 percent for the first half of 2016 down to 2.32% for the first half of 2017. The yields on new investments were generally lower than the higher rates of maturing securities.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is Scottdale’s primary source of revenue, and it represents the combined interest income received on loans, investments, and overnight funds, less the interest expense paid on deposits. Scottdale had no borrowings, and paid no interest expense on any borrowings, as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2017, as well as the six months ended June 30, 2016, and the full year ended December 31, 2016. Net interest income is affected by changes in interest rates and changes in average balances (volume) in the various interest-sensitive assets and liabilities.

As reflected in the following table, Scottdale’s taxable-equivalent net interest margin was 2.78% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 versus 2.93% for the six months ended June 30, 2016.

Table of Contents

The taxable equivalent yield on average interest-earning assets was 2.98% for the first six months of 2017 versus 3.14% in the first half of 2016, with the decline reflecting lower rates earned on both investments and loans. The decline in taxable-equivalent average investment yields, from 2.62% in the first half of 2016 to 2.32% in the first half of 2017, was generally the result of the proceeds from matured and called bonds being reinvested at lower yields given the continuing relatively lower rates for fixed income investments of ten years or less to maturity (Scottdale did not purchase any investment security with over 10 years to maturity). The slight decrease in average loan yields, from 5.26% in the first half of 2016 to 5.06% in the first half of 2017, reflects the impact of competition and market loan rates on new production being slightly lower than both (i) the rates on maturing loans, and (ii) the average rate on the loans held in the portfolio that were originated prior to 2017.

The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities was consistently 0.30% in both the first six months of 2016 and 2017. The continued low interest rate environment for deposits in Scottdale’s market aided in maintaining the low cost of interest bearing liabilities and savings accounts throughout the 18-month period ending June 30, 2017. Additionally, Scottdale was able to increase the average balance of noninterest-bearing accounts by nearly $4 million for the first six months of 2017, as compared to the same period in 2016.

For the six months ended June 30, 2017, Scottdale’s net interest income was $3,021,000 reflecting a decrease of $87,000 or 2 percent compared to net interest income of $3,108,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The primary sources for the year-over-year decrease were (i) a $133,000 reduction in interest income on tax-exempt securities, reflecting both a decrease in the average balance of these investments, and an overall reduction in the yield on investments from 2.62 percent for the first half of 2016 down to 2.32% for the first half of 2017, partially offset by (ii) an increase of $28,000 in interest income earned on federal funds sold, resulting from recent FOMC increases to the overnight fed funds rate.

Provision for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is established through provisions for loan losses charged against income. Provisions for loan losses are necessary to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level considered adequate to absorb losses inherent in or as determined by management to be probable in the loan portfolio. Management’s periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance, and the need, if any, for adjustments to the allowance balance, is based on Scottdale’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, current economic conditions, and other relevant factors. Scottdale’s allowance for loan losses consists of amounts applicable to the following loan portfolio segments: (i) residential real estate; (ii) commercial real estate; (iii) commercial; and (iv) installment. Additionally, an unallocated component of the allowance is maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses, and reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the portfolio.

Noninterest income totaled $273,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017, an increase of $83,000 or 44 percent compared to noninterest income of $190,000 for the same period of 2016. The primary source of the year-over-year variance was an increase in gains realized on investment securities. There were no sales of investment securities during the six months ended June 30, 2017 or 2016. Scottdale recorded gross securities gains of $86,000 and $17,000 for the periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, with such gains resulting from investment calls and proceeds received on securities for which Scottdale, in previous years, had recorded other-than-temporary impairment charges.

Other income for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $60,000 reflecting an increase of $16,000 or 36 percent compared to other income of $44,000 for the same period in 2016. The increase in other income was a result of increased income in several categories including safe deposit box rental fee income, trust commissions, and other miscellaneous income.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, noninterest expenses totaled $2,726,000, an increase of $16,000 or 16 percent compared to noninterest expenses of $2,710,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016.

Compensation expense (salaries) increased by $52,000 or 4 percent during the six months ended June 30, 2017 versus the same period in 2016, due to modest levels of implemented compensation rate increases and the hiring of seasonal employees.

Occupancy and equipment expenses were $19,000 less for the first six months of 2017 versus 2016, despite Scottdale still fully operating five branch offices, as the facility operating costs, including repairs and maintenance, and equipment costs were lower during 2017, while Scottdale incurred no major capital expenditures during the year.

Pennsylvania bank shares tax expense increased by 63 percent during the six months ended June 30, 2017 versus the same period in 2016, due to the lower levels of Pennsylvania tax credits as a result of less qualifying charitable contributions made by Scottdale during the six months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to June 30, 2016.

Professional fees, which primarily include audit expenses and legal expenses, were higher in 2017 compared to 2016 due to an increase in the usage of both outside counsel and other third-party professional services.

Merger and acquisition expenses of $201,000 were recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2017 to facilitate the announced merger of Scottdale and Mid Penn Bank. Similar merger and acquisition expenses were not recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2016.

Table of Contents

Other expenses, comprised primarily of advertising, supplies, postage, courier fees, and other miscellaneous expenses, decreased $26,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016. The change was primarily due to decreased postage and courier fees.

Federal Income Taxes

Federal income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $37,000 compared to a federal income tax benefit of $40,000 for the same period in 2016. Federal tax expense can vary from period to period due to the amount of tax-free income and any applicable tax credits in the respective periods.

Financial Condition as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016

Scottdale had total assets of $259,078,000 as of June 30, 2017, reflecting a decrease of $4,398,000 or two percent compared to total assets of $263,476,000 as of December 31, 2016. The decrease in total assets was primarily a reduction in held-to-maturity securities as a result of maturing municipal investments. From a funding perspective, total deposits decreased by $5,086,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017, due to a reduction in savings and money market deposits primarily attributable to a reduction in the deposit relationship of one school district. Scottdale’s total deposits were $210,899,000 as of June 30, 2017, compared to total deposits of $215,985,000 as of December 31, 2016.

Total loans were $64,320,000 as of June 30, 2017, a modest increase of $941,000 or just over 1 percent compared to total loans of $63,379,000 as of December 31, 2016.

Total stockholder’s equity was $46,244,000 as of June 30, 2017, reflecting an increase of $961,000 or two percent compared to total equity of $45,283,000 as of December 31, 2016. The year-over-year net decrease in stockholders’ equity resulted from net income of $531,000 for the first six months of 2017, and other comprehensive income of $430,000 for the same period.

Investments

Scottdale’s investment portfolio is comprised of U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. government agency securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions, corporate debt securities, and equity securities. As the largest asset class on Scottdale’s balance sheet, investments are utilized, with loans, as a significant source of interest income through yields on the securities earning a reasonable interest rate spread above the cost of Scottdale’s deposits. As a large portion of the investment portfolio is not pledged, the unencumbered securities are available for funding loan growth and supporting other liquidity needs.

Scottdale’s investments in obligations of states and political subdivisions (commonly referred to as municipal investments) were classified as held-to-maturity securities as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, as Scottdale management has the positive intent and ability to hold these debt securities until the investment’s contractual maturity date, if not otherwise called earlier if the respective security’s call rights are exercised. The following table summarizes the aggregate value of the held-to-maturity investment portfolio.

Loans

As of June 30, 2017, total loans outstanding (before the allowance for loan losses) were $64,320,000, an increase of $941,000 or over1 percent compared to total loans of $63,379,00 as of December 31, 2016. The main segment of Scottdale’s loan growth for the first six months of 2017 was consumer installment loans, which grew by $4,255,000 which more than offset a decrease of $2,637,000 in the commercial real estate portfolio for the same period.

Scottdale’s loan portfolio is diversified among individuals, small-to-medium size business customers, and nonprofit and governmental organizations generally located within the Company’s primary market area of Southwestern Pennsylvania. The majority of loans are secured by either residential or commercial real estate, with smaller portfolio segments of commercial and industrial loans, and consumer installment loans.

Credit Quality, Credit Risk, and Allowance for Loan Losses

Scottdale’s management believes that the allowance for loan losses of $542,000 as of June 30, 2017 is adequate to cover specifically identified and probable loan losses, and estimated losses inherent in the portfolio for which losses are probable but not specifically identifiable. The recorded allowance for loan loss, and supporting methodology and management judgments, considers the significant credit analyses, credit-related historical performance and trends, and other significant factors, both quantitative and qualitative, relating to its loan portfolio that are reasonably expected to have a material impact on current operating results and future potential loan losses. Additionally, management recognizes that changes to both local and national economic conditions, and other unfavorable circumstances related to borrowers’ specific risk profiles, personal or business earnings, and collateral values or other sources of repayment, may influence some borrowers’ abilities to comply with their repayment terms.

The allowance for loan losses consists of specific and general components related to individual credits and homogeneous pools of loans for the following loan portfolio segments: (i) residential real estate; (ii) commercial real estate; (iii) commercial; and (iv) installment. The specific component relates to loans that are solely evaluated based upon the delinquency, and assessed a specific reserve by management.    For specifically-evaluated loans that are also classified by management as impaired, an allowance is established when the carrying amount of the impaired loan exceeds the collateral value (for collateral-dependent loans) or discounted cash flows. The general component covers loans that are not delinquent or otherwise impaired, and is based upon Scottdale’s historical loan loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors. In addition to the specific and general components related to specific loans or portfolio segments, an unallocated component of the allowance is maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses, and to reflect the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the portfolio.

As of June 30, 2017, the allowance for loan losses was $542,000 or 0.84 percent of total loans, compared to an allowance of $553,000 or 0.87 percent of total loans as of December 31, 2016.

Scottdale considers a loan impaired when, based upon current information and events, it is probable the borrower will be unable to make scheduled payments of principal and interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in assessing whether or not a loan is impaired include delinquency status, collateral value and adequacy, and the likelihood of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. As of June 30, 2017, Scottdale had total impaired loans of $223,000 which was entirely comprised of impaired commercial real estate loans. No commercial and industrial, residential real estate or installment loans were classified by management to be impaired as of June 30, 2017. As of December 31,

Table of Contents

2016, Scottdale had total impaired loans of $373,000, including $294,000 of impaired commercial real estate loans, and $79,000 of impaired commercial and industrial loans. No residential real estate or installment loans were classified as impaired as of December 31, 2016.

Consistent with accounting and regulatory guidance, Scottdale recognizes a troubled debt restructuring, or TDR, when (i) a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, and (ii) the Company, for economic or legal reasons related to the Borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that would not otherwise be considered. Scottdale did not have any loans classified as TDRs as of June 30, 2017, December 31, 2016 or June 30, 2016, nor did it grant any TDRs during the first six months of 2017 or 2016, or the twelve months ended December 31, 2016.

Deposits and Other Funding Sources

Scottdale’s primary source of funds is deposits. The Company had no wholesale borrowings, either short-term or long-term, for the 18-month period ended June 30, 2017. Total deposits were $210,899,000 as of June 30, 2017, reflecting a decrease of $5,086,000 or over two percent compared to total deposits of $215,985,000 as of December 31, 2016. When comparing balances between June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the primary deposit type contributing to the overall decline was savings and money market accounts, which decreased during the first six months of 2017 due primarily to a reduction in one larger school district deposit relationship.

The year-over-year net increase in stockholders’ equity resulted from earnings through the first six months of 2017 of $531,000 and other comprehensive income of $430,000 relating to the net unrealized appreciation, on an after-tax basis, in the fair value of the available-for-sale investment portfolio holdings. For regulatory and risk management purposes, capital is evaluated in relation to total assets and the risk associated with those assets. Scottdale maintained regulatory capital levels above the “well-capitalized” requirements as of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016.

Table of Contents

relevant, germane or pertinent issue; by way of illustration, but not to be considered any limitation on the power of the board of directors to oppose a tender or other offer for Mid Penn’s securities. The board of directors may consider whether the offer price is acceptable based on the historical and present operating results or financial condition of the corporation; whether a more favorable price could be obtained for Mid Penn’s securities in the future; the social and economic effects of the offer on Mid Penn and any of its subsidiaries, employees, depositors, loan and other customers, creditors, and shareholders; the reputation and business practice of the offeror and its management and affiliates as they would affect the shareholders, employees, depositors and customers of Mid Penn and its subsidiaries and the future value of Mid Penn’s stock; the value of the securities which the offeror is offering in exchange for Mid Penn’s securities; the business and financial conditions and earnings prospects of the offeror, including, but not limited to, debt service and other existing or likely financial obligations of the offeror, and the possible effect of such conditions upon Mid Penn and any of its subsidiaries and the other elements of the communities in which Mid Penn and its subsidiaries are located; and any antitrust or other legal and regulatory issues that are raised by the offer.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

No indemnification shall be made in any case where the act or failure to act giving rise to the claim for indemnification is determined by a court to have constituted willful misconduct or recklessness. The provision does not affect a director’s responsibility or liability under any criminal statute or liability for payment of taxes.

Scottdale. Under Scottdale’s bylaws, to the fullest extent permitted by the Pennsylvania Directors’ Liability Act effective January 27, 1987, Scottdale shall indemnify each director, subject to certain limits imposed by applicable law, and no director of Scottdale shall be personally liable for monetary damages or fees of any kind for any action or any failure to take any action; provided that such exculpation from personal liability is limited by applicable Pennsylvania law, so that it does not apply if a director breached or failed to perform his fiduciary duties and such breach or failure constitutes self dealing, willful misconduct or recklessness.

Pennsylvania Anti-Takeover Provisions

Under the PBCL, certain anti-takeover provisions apply to Pennsylvania “registered corporations” (e.g., publicly traded companies) including those relating to (i) control share acquisitions, (ii) disgorgement of profits by certain controlling persons, (iii) business combination transactions with interested shareholders and (iv) the rights of shareholders to demand fair value for their stock following a control transaction. Pennsylvania law allows registered corporations to opt-out of any of these anti-takeover provisions. Mid Penn is a registered corporation under the PBCL. Scottdale is not a registered corporation and is therefore not subject to these anti-takeover provisions. A general summary of the applicable anti-takeover provisions is set forth below.

Control Share Acquisitions. Pennsylvania law limits control share acquisitions relating to the act of acquiring for the first time voting power over voting shares (other than shares owned since January 1, 1988 and any additional shares distributed with respect to such shares) equal to at least 20%, 33-1/3% and 50% of the voting power of the corporation. Once a control share acquisition has occurred, then all shares in excess of the triggering threshold, plus shares purchased at any time with the intention of acquiring such voting power and

 

199


Table of Contents

shares purchased within 180 days of the date the triggering threshold was exceeded, are considered control shares. Control shares cannot vote either until their voting rights have been restored by two separate votes of the shareholders, described below, at a meeting or until they have been transferred to a person who does not thereby also become the holder of control shares.

The holder of control shares may wait until the next annual or special meeting after the acquisition took place to submit the request for the restoration of voting rights to the shareholders, or the acquiring person may accelerate the process by agreeing to underwrite the cost of a special meeting of shareholders for that purpose. In either case, the acquiring person is required to furnish for distribution to the shareholders an information statement containing a detailed disclosure concerning the acquiring person, its intentions with respect to ownership of securities of the corporation and other matters. As an alternative, a person proposing to make a control share acquisition may request prospective approval by the shareholders of the exercise of the voting rights of the shares proposed to be acquired. Two shareholders’ votes are required to approve the restoration of voting rights: (i) the approval of an absolute majority of all voting power must be obtained, and all voting shares are entitled to participate in this vote; and (ii) the approval of an absolute majority of all disinterested shareholders must be obtained.

For a period of 24 months after the later of (i) a control share acquisition by an acquiring person who does not properly request consideration of voting rights, or (ii) the denial of such a request or lapse of voting rights, the corporation may redeem all the control shares at the average public market sales price of the shares on the date notice of the call for redemption is given by the corporation.

This limitation under Pennsylvania law regarding control share acquisitions applies to Scottdale, but Mid Penn has opted out of these Pennsylvania law provisions pursuant to its articles of incorporation.

Disgorgement of Profits by Certain Controlling Persons. Pennsylvania law regarding disgorgement of profits by certain controlling persons applies in the event that (i) any person or group publicly discloses that the person or group may acquire control of the corporation, or (ii) a person or group acquires (or publicly discloses an intent to acquire) 20% or more of the voting power of the corporation and, in either case, sells shares within 18 months thereafter. Any profits from sales of equity securities of the corporation received by the person or group during such 18-month period will belong to the corporation if the securities that were sold were acquired during the 18-month period or within 24 months prior thereto.

This limitation under Pennsylvania law regarding disgorgement by certain controlling persons applies to Scottdale, but Mid Penn has opted out of these Pennsylvania law provisions pursuant to its articles of incorporation.

Business Combination Transactions with Interested Shareholders. Pennsylvania law prohibits certain business combinations with certain ‘interested shareholders,’ persons who acquire the direct or indirect beneficial ownership of shares entitled to cast at least 20% of the votes entitled to be cast for the election of directors. A corporation subject to this provision may not effect mergers or certain other business combinations with the interested shareholder for a period of five years, unless:

 

    the business combination or the acquisition of stock by means of which the interested shareholder became an interested shareholder is approved by the corporation’s board of directors prior to such stock acquisition;

 

    the business combination is approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of all the outstanding common shares of the corporation; or

 

   

the business combination is approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of all shares entitled to vote, excluding votes of shares held by the interested shareholders, and at the time of such vote, the interested shareholder is the beneficial owner of at least 80% of the voting shares of the

 

200


Table of Contents
 

corporation. This exception applies only if the value of the consideration to be paid by the interested shareholder in connection with the business combination satisfies certain fair price requirements

After the five-year restricted period, an interested shareholder of the corporation may engage in a business combination with the corporation if (i) the business combination is approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares other than those beneficially owned by the interested shareholder and its affiliates, or (ii) the merger is approved at a shareholders meeting and certain fair price requirements are met.

Rights of Shareholders to Demand Fair Value for Stock Following a Control Transaction. Pennsylvania law regarding the ability of shareholders to dispose of their stock following a control transaction provides, generally, that a person or group that acquires more than 20% of the voting power to elect directors of the corporation is a controlling person and must give prompt notice to each shareholder of record. The other shareholders are then entitled to demand that the controlling person pay them the fair value of their shares under specified procedures. Fair value may not be less than the highest price paid per share by the controlling person at any time during the 90-day period ending on and including the date on which the controlling person became such, plus any increment representing any value, such as a control premium, that is not reflected in such price.

The provisions set forth in this section “Anti-Takeover Provisions” apply to Mid Penn only to the extent provided above, but they do not apply to Scottdale, since Scottdale is generally controlled by the Banking Code rather than the PBCL and Scottdale has opted out, in its bylaws, of Section 1610 of the Banking Code, which mirrors some of the restrictions set forth above.

Voting Rights

Amendment of Articles of Incorporation.

Pennsylvania law provides that shareholders of a registered corporation, such as Mid Penn, are not entitled by statute to propose amendments to the articles of incorporation. By contrast, under Pennsylvania law, an amendment to the articles of incorporation for an “unregistered corporation,” such as Scottdale, can only be proposed (1) by adoption by the board of directors of a resolution setting forth the proposed amendment; or (2) unless otherwise provided in the articles, by petition of shareholders entitled to cast at least 10% of the votes that all shareholders are entitled to cast on the proposed amendment. The shareholder petition must set forth the proposed amendment, be directed to the board of directors and filed with the secretary of the corporation.

Except where the approval of the shareholders is unnecessary, the board of directors will then direct that the proposed amendment be submitted to a vote of the shareholders entitled to vote on the proposed amendment. An amendment proposed pursuant to paragraph (2) above is required to be submitted to a vote either at the next annual meeting held not earlier than 120 days after the amendment is proposed or at a special meeting of the shareholders called for that purpose by the shareholders.

Under Pennsylvania law, an amendment to the articles of incorporation requires the approval of the board of directors and, except in limited cases where a greater vote may be required, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by all shareholders within each class or series of shares if such class or series is entitled to vote on the matter as a class.

Mid Penn. Mid Penn shareholders are not entitled by statute to propose amendments to the articles of incorporation. Mid Penn’s articles of incorporation may be amended as provided under Pennsylvania law, with the following exception: any amendment to Articles 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 require the affirmative vote of holders of at least 80 % of the outstanding shares of common stock, or the holders of 66-2/3% of the Mid Penn common stock, provided that such amendment has received the prior approval of at least 80% of all the members of the board of directors.

Scottdale. The Banking Code of 1965 provides that an amendment to the articles of incorporation requires the approval of the board of directors and, of the shareholders entitled to cast at least a majority of the votes

 

201


Table of Contents

which all shareholders are entitled to cast thereon and, if any class is entitled to vote thereon as a class, of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of such class.

Amendment of Bylaws.

Mid Penn. Mid Penn’s bylaws may be amended or repealed, in whole or in part, by the holders of 80% of the outstanding shares of Mid Penn common stock at any regular or special meeting duly convened after notice to the shareholders of that purpose, or by a majority vote of the members of the board of directors at any regular or special meeting.

Scottdale. Scottdale’s bylaws may be altered, amended, added to or repealed by vote of a majority of the board of directors at any regular meeting of the board, or at any special meeting of Scottdale called for that purpose, except they shall not make or alter any amendment fixing their qualifications, classification or term of office. Any action by the board of directors is subject, however, to the general right of the shareholders to change such action.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Board of Directors and Shareholders

Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc.

Millersburg, Pennsylvania

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiaries, (the “Corporation”) as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2016. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Corporation is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiaries at December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2016, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

(1) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary Mid Penn Bank (the “Bank”), and the Bank’s former wholly-owned subsidiary Mid Penn Insurance Services, LLC, which was closed, effective March 1, 2016 (collectively, “Mid Penn”). All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Each of Mid Penn’s lines of business are part of the same reporting segment, community banking, whose operating results are regularly reviewed and managed by a centralized executive management group. As a result, Mid Penn has only one reportable segment for financial reporting purposes.

The comparability of the results of operations for the year ended 2016 compared to 2015 and 2014, in general, have been impacted by the acquisition of Phoenix as further described in Note 4. For comparative purposes, the 2015 and 2014 balances have been reclassified to conform to the 2016 presentation. Such reclassifications had no impact on net income.

 

(2) Nature of Business

The Bank engages in a full-service commercial banking and trust business, making available to the community a wide range of financial services, including, but not limited to, mortgage and home equity loans, secured and unsecured commercial and consumer loans, lines of credit, construction financing, farm loans, community development loans, loans to non-profit entities and local government loans and various types of time and demand deposits, including but not limited to, checking accounts, savings accounts, clubs, money market deposit accounts, certificates of deposit, and IRAs. In addition, the Bank provides a full range of trust services through its Trust Department. Deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) to the extent provided by law.

The financial services are provided to individuals, partnerships, non-profit organizations, and corporations through its 21 retail banking offices located in Cumberland, Dauphin, Lancaster, Luzerne, Northumberland, and Schuylkill Counties.

A decision was made to close Mid Penn Insurance Services, LLC, effective March 1, 2016 due to a lack of activity within the subsidiary. Mid Penn Insurance Services, LLC was an immaterial subsidiary of the Bank, and was immaterial to Mid Penn’s consolidated results.

 

(3) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accounting and reporting policies of Mid Penn conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and to general practice within the financial industry. The following is a description of the more significant accounting policies.

 

  (a) Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for loan and lease losses, the assessment of other-than-temporary impairment of investment securities, the valuation of the goodwill for impairment, and the valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations.

 

  (b) Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, balances due from banks, and federal funds sold, all of which mature within ninety days.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

  (c) Interest-bearing Time Deposits with Other Financial Institutions

Interest-bearing time deposits with other financial institutions consist of certificates of deposits in other financial institutions with maturities within one year.

 

  (d) Investment Securities

Available-for-sale securities include debt and equity securities. Debt and equity securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported, net of deferred income taxes, as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within shareholders’ equity. Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized as an adjustment to interest income using the interest method. Realized gains and losses on sales of investment securities are computed on the basis of specific identification of the cost of each security. Net gains on sales of investment securities were $1,046,000 in 2016, $325,000 in 2015, and $168,000 in 2014. Mid Penn had no held-to-maturity securities in 2016 and 2015.

 

  (e) Loans Held for Sale

Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are included in loans held for sale and are carried at fair value, as determined by outstanding commitments from investors. Gains and losses on sales of mortgage loans are included in the Consolidated Statements of Income in mortgage banking income. Mortgage banking income was $922,000 in 2016, $456,000 in 2015, and $313,000 in 2014.

 

  (f) Loans and Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

Loans receivable that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are stated at their outstanding unpaid principal balances, net of an allowance for loan losses and any deferred fees or costs. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Residential loans held for sale are carried at fair value and are included in loans held for sale on the balance sheet. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the yield (interest income) of the related loans. These amounts are generally being amortized over the contractual life of the loan. Premiums and discounts on purchased loans are amortized as adjustments to interest income using the effective yield method.

The loan portfolio is segmented into commercial and consumer loans. Commercial loans consist of the following classes: commercial and industrial, commercial real estate, commercial real estate-construction and lease financing. Consumer loans consist of the following classes: residential mortgage loans, home equity loans and other consumer loans.

For all classes of loans, the accrual of interest is discontinued when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days or more past due or management has serious doubts about further collectability of principal or interest, even though the loan is currently performing. A loan may remain on accrual status if it is in the process of collection and is either guaranteed or well secured. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, unpaid interest is credited to income. Interest received on nonaccrual loans, including impaired loans, generally is either applied against principal or reported as interest income, according to management’s judgment as to the collectability of principal. Generally, loans are restored to accrual status when the obligation is brought current, has performed in accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable period of time (generally six months) and the ultimate collectability of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in doubt. The past due status of all classes of loans receivable is determined based on contractual due dates for loan payments.

Commercial and industrial

Mid Penn originates commercial and industrial loans. Most of the Bank’s commercial and industrial loans have been extended to finance local and regional businesses and include short-term loans to

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

finance machinery and equipment purchases, inventory, and accounts receivable. Commercial loans also involve the extension of revolving credit for a combination of equipment acquisitions and working capital in expanding companies.

The maximum term for loans extended on machinery and equipment is based on the projected useful life of such machinery and equipment. Generally, the maximum term on non-mortgage lines of credit is one year. The loan-to-value ratio on such loans and lines of credit generally may not exceed 80% of the value of the collateral securing the loan. The Bank’s commercial business lending policy includes credit file documentation and analysis of the borrower’s character, capacity to repay the loan, the adequacy of the borrower’s capital and collateral as well as an evaluation of conditions affecting the borrower. Analysis of the borrower’s past, present, and future cash flows is also an important aspect of the Bank’s current credit analysis. Nonetheless, such loans are believed to carry higher credit risk than other extensions of credit.

Commercial and industrial loans typically are made on the basis of the borrower’s ability to make repayment from the cash flow of the borrower’s business. As a result, the availability of funds for the repayment of commercial business loans may be substantially dependent on the success of the business itself, which, in turn, is likely to be dependent upon the general economic environment. Mid Penn’s commercial and industrial loans are usually, but not always, secured by business assets and personal guarantees. However, the collateral securing the loans may depreciate over time, may be difficult to appraise, and may fluctuate in value based on the success of the business.

Commercial real estate and commercial real estate—construction

Commercial real estate and commercial real estate construction loans generally present a higher level of risk than loans secured by one to four family residences. This greater risk is due to several factors, including the concentration of principal in a limited number of loans and borrowers, the effect of general economic conditions on income producing properties, and the increased difficulty of evaluating and monitoring these types of loans. In addition, the repayment of loans secured by commercial real estate is typically dependent upon the successful operation of the related real estate project. If the cash flow from the project is reduced, the borrower’s ability to repay the loan may be impaired.

Residential mortgage

Mid Penn offers a wide array of residential mortgage loans for both permanent structures and those under construction. The Bank’s residential mortgage originations are secured primarily by properties located in its primary market and surrounding areas. Residential mortgage loans have terms up to a maximum of 30 years and with loan to value ratios up to 100% of the lesser of the appraised value of the security property or the contract price. Private mortgage insurance is generally required in an amount sufficient to reduce the Bank’s exposure to at or below the 85% loan to value level. Residential mortgage loans generally do not include prepayment penalties.

In underwriting residential mortgage loans, the Bank evaluates both the borrower’s ability to make monthly payments and the value of the property securing the loan. Most properties securing real estate loans made by Mid Penn are appraised by independent fee appraisers. The Bank generally requires borrowers to obtain title insurance and fire and property insurance (including flood insurance, if necessary) in an amount not less than the amount of the loan. Real estate loans originated by the Bank generally contain a “due on sale” clause allowing the Bank to declare the unpaid principal balance due and payable upon the sale of the security property.

The Bank underwrites residential mortgage loans to the standards established by the secondary mortgage market, i.e., Fannie Mae, Ginnie Mae, Freddie Mac, or Pennsylvania Housing Finance

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Agency standards, with the intention of selling the majority of residential mortgages originated into the secondary market. In the event that the facts and circumstances surrounding a residential mortgage application do not meet all underwriting conditions of the secondary mortgage market, the Bank will evaluate the failed conditions and evaluate the potential risk of holding the residential mortgage in the Bank’s portfolio rather than rejecting the loan request. In the event that the loan is held in the Bank’s portfolio, the interest rate on the residential mortgage typically would be increased to compensate for the added portfolio risk.

Consumer, including home equity

Mid Penn offers a variety of secured consumer loans, including home equity, automobile, and deposit secured loans. In addition, the Bank offers other secured and unsecured consumer loans. Most consumer loans are originated in Mid Penn’s primary market and surrounding areas.

The largest component of Mid Penn’s consumer loan portfolio consists of fixed rate home equity loans and variable rate home equity lines of credit. Substantially all home equity loans and lines of credit are secured by second mortgages on principal residences. The Bank will lend amounts, which, together with all prior liens, typically may be up to 85% of the appraised value of the property securing the loan. Home equity term loans may have maximum terms up to 20 years while home equity lines of credit generally have maximum terms of five years.

Consumer loan terms vary according to the type and value of collateral, length of contract and creditworthiness of the borrower. The underwriting standards employed by the Bank for consumer loans include an application, a determination of the applicant’s payment history on other debts, and an assessment of ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the proposed loan. Although creditworthiness of the applicant is a primary consideration, the underwriting process also includes a comparison of the value of the collateral, if any, in relation to the proposed loan amount.

Consumer loans may entail greater credit risk than do residential mortgage loans, particularly in the case of consumer loans which are unsecured or are secured by rapidly depreciable assets, such as automobiles or recreational equipment. In such cases, any repossessed collateral for a defaulted consumer loan may not provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance. In addition, consumer loan collections are dependent on the borrower’s continuing financial stability, and thus are more likely to be affected by adverse personal circumstances. Furthermore, the application of various federal and state laws, including bankruptcy and insolvency laws, may limit the amount that can be recovered on such loans.

Junior liens inherently have more credit risk by virtue of the fact that another financial institution may have a higher security position in the case of foreclosure liquidation of collateral to extinguish the debt. Generally, foreclosure actions could become more prevalent if the real estate market weakens and property values deteriorate.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

The allowance for credit losses consists of the allowance for loan and lease losses and the reserve for unfunded lending commitments. The allowance for loan and lease losses represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date and is recorded as a reduction to loans. The reserve for unfunded lending commitments represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in its unfunded loan commitments and is recorded in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet and was $120,000 at December 31, 2016 and $94,500 at December 31, 2015. The allowance for loan and lease losses is increased by the provision for loan and lease losses, and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Loans deemed to be uncollectible are charged against

the allowance for loan and lease losses, and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. All, or part, of the principal balance of loans are charged off to the allowance as soon as it is determined that the repayment of all, or part, of the principal balance is highly unlikely. Non-residential consumer loans are generally charged off no later than 120 days past due on a contractual basis, earlier in the event of bankruptcy, or if there is an amount deemed uncollectible. Because all identified losses are immediately charged off, no portion of the allowance for loan and lease losses is restricted to any individual loan or groups of loans, and the entire allowance is available to absorb any and all loan losses.

The allowance for credit losses is maintained at a level considered adequate to provide for losses that can be reasonably anticipated. Management performs a monthly evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance. The allowance is based on Mid Penn’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, composition of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions, and other relevant factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

The allowance consists of specific, general and unallocated components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as impaired. For loans that are classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the DCF, collateral value, or observable market price of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers pools of loans by loan class including commercial loans not considered impaired, as well as smaller balance homogeneous loans, such as residential real estate, home equity and other consumer loans. These pools of loans are evaluated for loss exposure based upon historical loss rates for each of these categories of loans, adjusted for qualitative factors. These qualitative risk factors include changes in economic conditions, fluctuations in loan quality measures, changes in collateral values, changes in the experience of the lending staff and loan review systems, changes in lending policies and procedures, including underwriting standards, changes in the mix and volume of loans originated, the effect of other external factors such as competition and legal and regulatory requirements on the level of estimated credit losses in the existing loan portfolio, and shifting industry or portfolio concentrations.

Each factor is assigned a value to reflect improving, stable or declining conditions based on management’s best judgment using relevant information available at the time of the evaluation. Adjustments to the factors are supported through documentation of changes in conditions in a narrative accompanying the allowance for loan loss calculation.

Mid Penn generally considers a commercial loan (consisting of commercial and industrial, commercial real estate, commercial real estate-construction, and lease financing loan classes) to be impaired when it becomes 90 days or more past due and not in the process of collection or sooner when it is probable that Mid Penn will be unable to collect all contractual principal and interest due. This methodology assumes the borrower cannot or will not continue to make additional payments. At that time the loan would generally be considered collateral dependent as the DCF method would generally indicate no operating income available for evaluating the collateral position; therefore, most impaired loans are deemed to be collateral dependent.

In addition, Mid Penn’s rating system assumes any loans classified as nonaccrual, included in the substandard rating, to be impaired, and most of these loans are considered collateral dependent; therefore, most of Mid Penn’s impaired loans, whether reporting a specific allocation or not, are considered collateral dependent.

Mid Penn evaluates loans for charge-off on a monthly basis. Policies that govern the recommendation for charge-off are unique to the type of loan being considered. Commercial loans rated as substandard nonaccrual or lower will first have a collateral evaluation completed in accordance with the guidance

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

on impaired loans. Once the collateral evaluation has been completed, a specific allocation of allowance is made based upon the results of the evaluation. The remaining balance remains a nonperforming loan with the original terms and interest rate intact (not restructured). In the event the loan is unsecured, the loan would have been charged-off at the recognition of impairment. Commercial real estate loans rated as impaired will also have an initial collateral evaluation completed in accordance with the guidance on impaired loans. An updated real estate valuation is ordered and the collateral evaluation is modified to reflect any variations in value. A specific allocation of allowance is made for any anticipated collateral shortfall. The remaining balance remains a nonperforming loan with the original terms and interest rate intact (not restructured). The process of charge-off for residential mortgage loans begins upon a loan becoming delinquent for 90 days and not in the process of collection. The existing appraisal is reviewed and a lien search is obtained to determine lien position and any instances of intervening liens. A new appraisal of the property will be ordered if deemed necessary by management and a collateral evaluation is completed. The loan will then be charged down to the value indicated in the evaluation. Consumer loans (including home equity loans and other consumer loans) are recommended for charge-off after reaching delinquency of 90 days and the loan is not in the process of collection. The collateral shortfall of the consumer loan is recommended for charge-off at this point.

As noted above, Mid Penn assesses a specific allocation for commercial loans and commercial real estate loans. The remaining balance remains a nonperforming loan with the original terms and interest rate intact (not restructured). In addition, Mid Penn takes a preemptive step when any commercial loan becomes classified under its internal classification system. A preliminary collateral evaluation, in accordance with the guidance on impaired loans, is prepared using the existing collateral information in the loan file. This process allows Mid Penn to review both the credit and documentation files to determine the status of the information needed to make a collateral evaluation. This collateral evaluation is preliminary but allows Mid Penn to determine if any potential collateral shortfalls exist.

It is Mid Penn’s policy to obtain updated third party valuations on all impaired loans collateralized by real estate as soon as practically possible of the credit being classified as substandard nonaccrual. Prior to receipt of the updated real estate valuation Mid Penn will use any existing real estate valuation to determine any potential allowance issues; however, no allowance recommendation will be made until such time Mid Penn is in receipt of the updated valuation. The Asset Recovery department employs an electronic tracking system to monitor the receipt of and need for updated appraisals. To date, there have been no material time lapses noted with the above processes.

In some instances Mid Penn is not holding real estate as collateral and is relying on business assets (personal property) for repayment. In these circumstances a collateral inspection is performed by Mid Penn personnel to determine an estimated value. The value is based on net book value, as provided by the financial statements, and discounted accordingly based on determinations made by management. Occasionally, Mid Penn will employ an outside service to provide a fair estimate of value based on auction sales or private sales. Management reviews the estimates of these third parties and discounts them accordingly based on management’s judgment, if deemed necessary.

For impaired loans with no valuation allowance required, Mid Penn’s practice of obtaining independent third party market valuations on the subject property as soon as practically possible of the credit being placed on nonaccrual status sometimes indicates that the loan to value ratio is sufficient to obviate the need for a specific allocation in spite of significant deterioration in real estate values in Mid Penn’s primary market area. These circumstances are determined on a case by case analysis of the impaired loans.

Mid Penn actively monitors the values of collateral on impaired loans. This monitoring may require the modification of collateral values over time or changing circumstances by some factor, either positive or

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

negative, from the original values. All collateral values will be assessed by management at least every 12 months for possible revaluation by an independent third party.

An unallocated component is maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses. The unallocated component of the allowance reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the portfolio.

Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, Mid Penn does not separately identify individual residential mortgage loans, home equity loans and other consumer loans for impairment disclosures, unless such loans are the subject of a troubled debt restructuring agreement.

Loans whose terms are modified are classified as troubled debt restructurings if the borrowers have been granted concessions and it is deemed that those borrowers are experiencing financial difficulty. Concessions granted under a troubled debt restructuring generally involve a temporary reduction in interest rate or an extension of a loan’s stated maturity date. Nonaccrual troubled debt restructurings are restored to accrual status if principal and interest payments, under the modified terms, are current for six consecutive months after modification. Loans classified as troubled debt restructurings are designated as impaired.

The allowance calculation methodology includes further segregation of loan classes into risk rating categories. The borrower’s overall financial condition, repayment sources, guarantors, and value of collateral, if appropriate, are evaluated annually for commercial loans or when credit deficiencies arise, such as delinquent loan payments. Credit quality risk ratings include regulatory classifications of special mention, substandard, doubtful, and loss. Loans criticized as special mention have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If uncorrected, the potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects. Loans classified substandard have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They include loans that are inadequately protected by the current sound net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans classified doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in loans classified substandard with the added characteristic that collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of current conditions and facts, is highly improbable. Loans classified as a loss are considered uncollectible and are charged to the allowance for loan losses. Any loans not classified as noted above are rated pass.

In addition, Federal and State regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Bank’s allowance for loan and lease losses and may require the Bank to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination, which may not be currently available to management. Based on management’s comprehensive analysis of the loan portfolio, management believes the current level of the allowance for loan losses is adequate.

Acquired Loans

Loans that Mid Penn acquires in connection with business combinations are recorded at fair value with no carryover of the existing related allowance for loan losses. Fair value of the loans involves estimating the amount and timing of principal and interest cash flows expected to be collected on the loans and discounting those cash flows at a market rate of interest.

The excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is referred to as the accretable discount and is recognized into interest income over the remaining life of the loan. The difference between contractually required payments at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition is referred to as the nonaccretable discount. These loans are accounted for

The nonaccretable discount includes estimated future credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the loan. Subsequent decreases to the expected cash flows will require Mid Penn to evaluate the need for an additional allowance for credit losses. Subsequent improvement in expected cash flows will result in the reversal of a corresponding amount of the nonaccretable discount which Mid Penn will then reclassify as accretable discount that will be recognized into interest income over the remaining life of the loan.

Loans acquired through business combinations that do meet the specific criteria of ASC 310-30 are individually evaluated each period to analyze expected cash flows. To the extent that the expected cash flows of a loan have decreased due to credit deterioration, Mid Penn establishes an allowance.

Loans acquired through business combinations that do not meet the specific criteria of ASC 310-30 are accounted for under ASC 310-20. These loans are initially recorded at fair value, and include credit and interest rate marks associated with acquisition accounting adjustments. Purchase premiums or discounts are subsequently amortized as an adjustment to yield over the estimated contractual lives of the loans. There is no allowance for loan losses established at the acquisition date for acquired performing loans. An allowance for loan losses is recorded for any credit deterioration in these loans subsequent to acquisition.

Acquired loans that met the criteria for impaired or nonaccrual of interest prior to the acquisition may be considered performing upon acquisition, regardless of whether the customer is contractually delinquent if Mid Penn expects to fully collect the new carrying value (i.e. fair value) of the loans. As such, Mid Penn may no longer consider the loan to be nonaccrual or nonperforming and may accrue interest on these loans, including the impact of any accretable discount. In addition, charge-offs on such loans would be first applied to the nonaccretable difference portion of the fair value adjustment.

 

  (g) Bank Premises and Equipment

Land is carried at cost. Buildings, furniture, fixtures, equipment, land improvements, and leasehold improvements are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Building assets are depreciated using an estimated useful life of five to fifty years. Furniture, fixtures, and equipment are depreciated using an estimated useful life of three to ten years. Land improvements are depreciated over an estimated useful life of ten to twenty years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated using an estimated useful life that is the lesser of the remaining life of the lease or ten to thirty years. Maintenance and normal repairs are charged to expense when incurred, while major additions and improvements are capitalized. Gains and losses on disposals are reflected in current operations. Bank premises and equipment designated as held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or market value.

 

  (h) Restricted Investments in Bank Stocks

Restricted investments in bank stocks represent required investments in the common stock of correspondent banks. As a member of the FHLB and Atlantic Community Bankers Bank (“ACBB”), the Bank is required to own restricted stock investments in these correspondent banks, which is carried at cost. The total amount of these restricted stock investments was $2,443,000 December 31, 2016 and $4,266,000 at December 31, 2015. This reduction was attributed to the decline in Mid Penn’s FHLB long term advances and its shift from a short-term borrowing to a short-term selling position in 2016. Total dividends received in 2016 and 2015 totaled $135,000 and $250,000, respectively.

 

  (i) Foreclosed Assets Held for Sale

Foreclosed assets held for sale consist primarily of real estate acquired through, or in lieu of, foreclosure in settlement of debt, and are recorded at fair value less cost to sell at the date of transfer,

establishing a new cost basis. Any valuation adjustments required at the date of transfer are charged to the allowance for loan losses. Subsequent to acquisition, foreclosed assets are carried at fair value less costs of disposal, based upon periodic evaluations that consider changes in market conditions and development and disposal costs. Operating results from assets acquired in satisfaction of debt, including rental income less operating costs and gains or losses on the sale of, or the periodic evaluation of foreclosed assets, are recorded in noninterest expense. As of December 31, 2016, Mid Penn had $57,000 of residential real estate held in other real estate owned. There was $426,000 in loans for which formal foreclosure proceedings were in process at December 31, 2016. As of December 31, 2015, Mid Penn had $358,000 of residential real estate held in other real estate owned. There were no loans for which formal foreclosure proceedings were in process at December 31, 2015.

 

  (j) Mortgage Servicing Rights

Mortgage servicing rights are recognized as assets upon the sale of a mortgage loan. A portion of the cost of the loan is allocated to the servicing right based upon relative fair value. The fair value of servicing rights is based on the present value of estimated future cash flows of mortgages sold, stratified by rate and maturity date. Assumptions that are incorporated in the valuation of servicing rights include assumptions about prepayment speeds on mortgages and the cost to service loans. Servicing rights are reported in core deposit and other intangibles in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized over the estimated period of future servicing income to be received on the underlying mortgage loans. The carrying amount of mortgage servicing rights was $144,000 and $174,000 at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Amortization expense is reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Income in other income and was $30,000, $24,000, and $36,000 for the years 2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively. Servicing rights are evaluated for impairment based upon estimated fair value as compared to unamortized book value.

 

  (k) Investment in Limited Partnership

Mid Penn is a limited partner in a partnership that provides low-income housing in Enola, Pennsylvania. The carrying value of Mid Penn’s investment in the limited partnership was $321,000 at December 31, 2016 and $365,000 at December 31, 2015, net of amortization, using the straight-line method and is reported in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Mid Penn’s maximum exposure to loss is limited to the carrying value of its investment. The partnership received $46,000 in low-income housing tax credits during 2016, 2015 and 2014.

 

  (l) Income Taxes

Mid Penn accounts for income taxes in accordance with income tax accounting guidance ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes.

Current income tax accounting guidance results in two components of income tax expense: current and deferred. Current income tax expense reflects taxes to be paid or refunded for the current period by applying the provisions of the enacted tax law to the taxable income or excess of deductions over revenues. Mid Penn determines deferred income taxes using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is based on the tax effects of the differences between the book and tax basis of assets and liabilities, and enacted changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period in which they occur.

Deferred income tax expense results from changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities between periods. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of the evidence available, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Mid Penn accounts for uncertain tax positions if it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the tax position will be realized or sustained upon examination. The term more-likely-than-

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

not means a likelihood of more than 50%; the terms examined and upon examination also include resolution of the related appeals or litigation processes, if any. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is initially and subsequently measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The determination of whether or not a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold considers the facts, circumstances, and information available at the reporting date and is subject to management’s judgment.

Mid Penn recognizes interest and penalties on income taxes, if any, as a component of income tax expense.

 

  (m) Core Deposit Intangible

Core deposit intangible is a measure of the value of consumer demand and savings deposits acquired in business combinations accounted for as purchases. The core deposit intangible is being amortized over a ten-year period using a sum of the year’s digits basis. The core deposit intangible is subject to impairment testing whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate such testing.

 

  (n) Goodwill

Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired in connection with past business acquisitions, including the 2015 Phoenix acquisition. If certain events occur, which indicate goodwill might be impaired between annual tests, goodwill must be tested when such events occur. In making this assessment, Mid Penn considers a number of factors including operating results, business plans, economic projections, anticipated future cash flows, current market data, stock price, etc. There are inherent uncertainties related to these factors and Mid Penn’s judgment in applying them to the analysis of goodwill impairment. Changes in economic and operating conditions could result in goodwill impairment in future periods. Mid Penn did not identify any impairment on its outstanding goodwill from its most recent testing, which was performed as of December 31, 2016 using a qualitative analysis. In addition, Mid Penn did not identify any impairment in 2015 or 2014 using a qualitative and quantitative analysis, respectively, in accordance with ASC 350.

 

  (o) Bank Owned Life Insurance

Mid Penn is the owner and beneficiary of bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI”) policies on current and former directors, as well as select Miners Bank employees, which were acquired through the Phoenix acquisition. The earnings from the BOLI policies are an asset that can be liquidated, if necessary, with associated tax costs. However, Mid Penn intends to hold these policies and, accordingly, Mid Penn has not provided deferred income taxes on the earnings from the increase in cash surrender value.

Mid Penn is also party to certain Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements, and in accordance with GAAP, has accrued a liability related to the postretirement benefits covered by an endorsement split-dollar life insurance arrangement, and a liability for the future death benefit.

 

  (p) Marketing and Advertising Costs

Marketing and advertising costs are expensed as incurred.

 

  (q) Postretirement Benefit Plans

Mid Penn follows the guidance in ASC Topic 715, Compensation-Retirement Benefits, related to postretirement benefit plans. This guidance requires additional disclosures about defined benefit pension plans and other postretirement defined benefit plans.

 

F-18

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

  (r) Other Benefit Plan

A funded contributory defined-contribution plan is maintained for substantially all employees. The cost of the Mid Penn defined contribution plan is charged to current operating expenses and is funded annually.

 

  (s) Trust Assets and Income

Assets held by the Bank in a fiduciary or agency capacity for customers of the Trust Department are not included in the consolidated financial statements since such items are not assets of the Bank. Trust income is recognized on the cash basis, which is not materially different than if it were reported on the accrual basis.

 

  (t) Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income (loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) includes changes in unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale arising during the period and reclassification adjustments for realized gains and losses on securities available for sale included in net income. Mid Penn has an unfunded noncontributory defined benefit Plan for directors and other postretirement benefit Plans covering full-time employees. These Plans utilize assumptions and methods to calculate the fair value of Plan assets and recognizing the overfunded and underfunded status of the Plans on its consolidated balance sheet. Gains and losses, prior service costs and credits are recognized in other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, until they are amortized, or immediately upon curtailment.

 

  (u) Restricted Stock

Mid Penn provides members of Senior Management who have a responsibility for its growth with additional incentives by allowing them to acquire an ownership interest in Mid Penn through the Restricted Stock Plan. The restricted stock is non-voting and non-participating until the granted shares vest. Once the shares vest, the recipient would have full voting rights and be entitled to any commons stock dividends.

 

  (v) Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share are computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each of the years presented. The following data show the amounts used in computing basic earnings per share.

(4) Mergers and Acquisitions

On March 1, 2015, Phoenix Bancorp, Inc. (“Phoenix”) merged with, and into, Mid Penn, with Mid Penn continuing as the surviving entity. Simultaneously with the consummation of the foregoing merger, Miners Bank (“Miners”), a Pennsylvania-state chartered bank and wholly-owned subsidiary of Phoenix, merged with and into the Bank.

As part of this transaction, Phoenix shareholders received either 3.167 shares of the Company’s common stock or $51.60 in cash in exchange for each share of Phoenix common stock. Holders of contingent rights issued by Phoenix received approximately 0.414 shares of the Company’s common stock as settlement of such rights. As a result, the Company issued 723,851 shares of common stock with an acquisition date fair value of approximately $11,292,000, based on the closing stock price of the Company’s common stock on February 27, 2015 of $15.60, and cash of $2,949,000. Including an insignificant amount of cash paid in lieu of fractional shares, the fair value of total consideration paid was $14,241,000.

Additionally, as part of this transaction, on March 1, 2015, Mid Penn assumed all of the liabilities and obligations of Phoenix with respect to 1,750 shares of Phoenix’s preferred stock issued to the United States Treasury (“Treasury”) in connection with the Small Business Lending Fund and issued 1,750 shares of the Company’s Senior Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series C that had a $1,000 liquidation preference per share (the “SBLF Preferred Shares”), to the Treasury. The SBLF Preferred Shares qualified as Tier 1 Capital and had terms and conditions identical to those shares of preferred stock issued by Phoenix to the Treasury.

The assets and liabilities of Miners and Phoenix were recorded on the consolidated balance sheet at their estimated fair value as of March 1, 2015, and their results of operations have been included in the consolidated income statement since that date.

Included in the purchase price was goodwill and a core deposit intangible of $2,902,000 and $578,000, respectively. The core deposit intangible will be amortized over a ten-year period using a sum of the year’s digits basis. The goodwill is not taxable and will not be amortized, but will be measured annually for impairment or more frequently if circumstances require. Core deposit intangible amortization expense projected for the next five years beginning in 2017 is estimated to be $86,000, $75,000, $65,000, $54,000, and $44,000 per year, respectively, and $70,000 in total for years after 2021.

The market rate adjustment represents the movement in market interest rates, irrespective of credit adjustments, compared to the stated rates of the acquired loans. The credit adjustment made on pools of homogeneous loans represents the changes in credit quality of the underlying borrowers from the loan inception to the acquisition date. The credit adjustment on impaired loans is derived in accordance with ASC 310-30 and represents the portion of the loan balance that has been deemed uncollectible based on our expectations of future cash flows for each respective loan.

The information about the acquired Phoenix loans accounted for under ASC 310-30 as of March 1, 2015 is as follows:

(6) Restrictions on Cash and Due from Bank Accounts

The Bank is required to maintain reserve balances with the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia. There was no required reserve balance at December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 because the Bank had sufficient vault cash available.

 

(7) Investment Securities

Securities to be held for indefinite periods, but not intended to be held to maturity, are classified as available for sale and carried at fair value. Securities held for indefinite periods include securities that management intends to use as part of its asset and liability management strategy and that may be sold in response to liquidity needs, changes in interest rates, resultant prepayment risk, and other factors related to interest rate and resultant prepayment risk changes.

Realized gains and losses on dispositions are based on the net proceeds and the adjusted book value of the securities sold, using the specific identification method. Unrealized gains and losses on investment securities available for sale are based on the difference between book value and fair value of each security. These gains and losses are credited or charged to other comprehensive income (loss), whereas realized gains and losses flow through Mid Penn’s consolidated statements of income.

ASC Topic 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities, clarifies the interaction of the factors that should be considered when determining whether a debt security is other-than-temporarily impaired. For debt securities, management must assess whether (a) it has the intent to sell the security and (b) it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security prior to its anticipated recovery. These steps are done before assessing whether the entity will recover the cost basis of the investment.

In instances when a determination is made that other-than-temporary impairment exists but the investor does not intend to sell the debt security and it is not more likely than not that it will be required to sell the debt security prior to its anticipated recovery, this guidance changes the presentation and amount of the other-than-temporary impairment recognized in the income statement. The other-than-temporary impairment is separated into (a) the amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to a decrease in cash flows expected to be collected from the debt security (the credit loss) and (b) the amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to all other factors. The amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to the credit loss is recognized in earnings. The amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to all other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss).

In assessing potential other-than-temporary impairment for equity securities, consideration is given to management’s intent and ability to hold the securities until recovery of unrealized losses. Mid Penn had no other-than-temporary impaired debt or equity securities in 2016, 2015, and 2014.

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment on a quarterly basis; and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, and the financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer. In addition, for debt securities, Mid Penn considers (a) whether management has the intent to sell the security, (b) it is more likely than not that management will be required to sell the security prior to its anticipated recovery, and (c) whether management expects to recover the entire amortized cost basis. For equity securities, management considers the intent and ability to hold securities until recovery of unrealized losses.

The majority of the investment portfolio is comprised of mortgage-backed U.S. government agencies and state and political subdivision obligations. For the investment securities with an unrealized loss, Mid Penn has concluded, based on its analysis, that the unrealized losses in the investments are primarily caused by the movement of interest rates, and the contractual terms of these investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the par value of the investment.

At December 31, 2016, Mid Penn had 149 debt securities and 2 equity securities with unrealized losses totaling $4,565,000 that depreciated 3.82% from their collective amortized cost basis. At December 31,

2016, the majority of the unrealized losses on securities in an unrealized loss position were attributed to state and political subdivision obligations and U.S. Treasury and government agencies. At December 31, 2015, Mid Penn had 45 debt securities and 2 equity securities with unrealized losses totaling $403,000 that depreciated 1.19% from their amortized cost basis. At December 31, 2015, the majority of the unrealized losses on securities in an unrealized loss position were attributed to mortgage-backed U.S. government agencies. Because Mid Penn does not intend to sell these investments and it is not likely it will be required to sell these investments before a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, Mid Penn does not consider the securities with unrealized losses to be other-than-temporarily impaired as losses relate to changes in interest rates and not erosion of credit quality.

During 2016, Mid Penn realized gross gains on the sales of securities available for sale of $1,927,000 on 102 debt securities. Mid Penn also realized $881,000 in gross losses on the sales of 56 debt securities available for sale during 2016. Mid Penn realized gross gains of $325,000 and $168,000 on sales of securities available for sale during 2015 and 2014, respectively, while no gross losses were realized in 2015 and 2014.

At December 31, 2016, Mid Penn’s troubled debt restructured loans totaled $3,515,000, including five loans totaling $877,000 represented accruing impaired loans in compliance with the terms of the modification. Of the $877,000, four are accruing impaired residential mortgages to unrelated borrowers totaling $571,000 and the other one is an accruing impaired commercial real estate loan for $306,000. The remaining $2,638,000 of troubled debt restructured loans represent ten loans among four relationships, are nonaccrual impaired loans, and resulted in a collateral evaluation in accordance with the guidance on impaired loans. Two large relationships account for $2,170,000 of the $2,638,000 nonaccrual impaired troubled debt restructured loan total. As a result of the evaluation, a specific allocation and, subsequently, charge-offs have been taken as appropriate. As of December 31, 2016, there were no charge-offs associated with troubled debt restructured loans while under a forbearance agreement. As of December 31, 2016, there were no defaulted troubled debt restructured loans as all troubled debt restructured loans were current with respect to their associated forbearance agreements. There were also no defaults on troubled debt restructured loans within twelve months of restructure during 2016. One forbearance agreement was negotiated during 2008, eight forbearance agreements were negotiated during 2009, two were negotiated during 2013, one was negotiated during 2014, and three were negotiated during 2016.

At December 31, 2015, Mid Penn’s troubled debt restructured loans totaled $2,805,000 of which four loans totaling $459,000 represented accruing impaired loans in compliance with the terms of the modification. Of the $459,000, three are accruing impaired residential mortgages to unrelated borrowers totaling $64,000 and the other one is an accruing impaired commercial real estate loan for $395,000. The remaining $2,346,000, representing nine loans among four relationships, are nonaccrual impaired loans, and resulted in a collateral evaluation in accordance with the guidance on impaired loans. One large relationship accounted for $1,370,000 of the $2,346,000 nonaccrual impaired troubled debt restructured loan total. As a result of the evaluation, a specific allocation and, subsequently, charge-offs have been taken as appropriate. As of December 31, 2015, there were no charge-offs associated with troubled debt restructured loans while under a forbearance agreement. As of December 31, 2015, there were no defaulted troubled debt restructured loans as all troubled debt restructured loans were current with respect to their associated forbearance agreements.

Mid Penn entered into forbearance agreements on all loans currently classified as troubled debt restructures and all of these agreements have resulted in additional principal repayment. The terms of these forbearance agreements vary whereby principal payments have been decreased, interest rates have been reduced and/or the loan will be repaid as collateral is sold.

There were three loans modified in 2016 and no loans modified in 2015 that resulted in troubled debt restructurings. The following table summarizes the loans whose terms have been modified resulting in troubled debt restructurings during the year ended December 31, 2016.

Depreciation expense was $1,658,000 in 2016, $1,485,000 in 2015, and $1,235,000 in 2014.

As of December 31, 2016, assets held-for-sale consisted of three full service retail banking properties. These properties were transferred from land and buildings to assets held for sale due to Mid Penn’s intent to sell them during January 2017. An impairment charge of $142,000 was recorded on one of the properties at December 31, 2016 and included in other expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

On January 20, 2017, Mid Penn consummated the sale of the three properties for an aggregate sale price of $2,240,000, which exceeded Mid Penn’s combined carrying value by approximately $346,000. Two of the properties are being leased back by Mid Penn for a period of at least 15 years, and the respective gains on the sales of those properties will be recognized over the life of the leases.

Operating Leases:

As of December 31, 2016, Mid Penn was obligated to utilize certain premises under certain non-cancelable operating leases, which expire at various dates through the year ending December 31, 2035. Many of these leases contain renewal options and certain leases contain escalation clauses calling for rentals to be adjusted for increased real estate taxes and other operating expenses or proportionately adjusted for increases in consumer or other price indices. Four of Mid Penn’s operating leases are with related parties. The rental expense paid to related parties was $348,000 in 2016, $279,000 in 2015, and $54,000 in 2014. The future minimum payments to related parties are $346,000 (2017), $302,000 (2018), $304,000 (2019), $305,000 (2020), $213,000 (2021), and $2,118,000 thereafter.

In 2016, Mid Penn entered into two subleasing agreements with escalation clauses to two unrelated parties. The first sublease agreement began on April 1, 2016, while the second sublease began on July 1, 2016. Both subleases end on March 31, 2021.

The following summary reflects the future minimum rental payments by year under Mid Penn’s operating leases as of December 31, 2016, including a breakdown of the sublease rental income and future minimum payments owed to related parties.

There were no short-term borrowings at December 31, 2016, and $31,596,000 with a rate of 0.40% at December 31, 2015. The Bank also has short-term borrowing capacity from the FHLB up to the Bank’s unused borrowing capacity of $404,204,000 at December 31, 2016, upon satisfaction of any stock purchase requirements of the FHLB. The Bank also has unused overnight lines of credit with correspondent banks amounting to $15,000,000 at December 31, 2016.

 

(12) Long-term Debt

The Bank is a member of the FHLB and through its membership, the Bank can access a number of credit products, which are utilized to provide liquidity. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Bank had long-term debt outstanding in the amount of $13,581,000 and $40,305,000, respectively, consisting of:

The Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.15% per year for the first five years and then float at the Wall Street Journal’s Prime Rate plus 0.50%, provided that the interest rate applicable to the outstanding principal balance will at no times be less than 4.0%. Interest will be payable quarterly in arrears on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 of each year, and began on January 1, 2016. The Notes will mature on December 9, 2025 and are redeemable in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, at any time on or after December 9, 2020, and prior to December 9, 2025. Additionally, Mid Penn may redeem the Notes in whole at any time, or in part from time to time, upon at least 30 days’ notice if: (i) a change or prospective change in law occurs that could prevent Mid Penn from deducting interest payable on the Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes; (ii) an event occurs that precludes the Notes from being recognized as Tier 2 capital for regulatory capital purposes; or (iii) Mid Penn becomes required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, in each case at 100% of the principal amount of the subordinated notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to but excluding the date of redemption.

Holders of the Notes may not accelerate the maturity of the Notes, except upon Mid Penn’s or Mid Penn Bank, its principal banking subsidiary’s, bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, receivership or similar event. As of December 31, 2016, related parties held $1,930,000 of the Notes.

 

(14) Fair Value Measurement

Fair value measurement and disclosure guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell the asset or transfer the liability in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. This guidance provides additional information on determining when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability has significantly decreased. The guidance also includes information on identifying circumstances when a transaction may not be considered orderly.

Fair value measurement and disclosure guidance provides a list of factors that a reporting entity should evaluate to determine whether there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability in relation to normal market activity for the asset or liability. When the reporting entity concludes there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, further analysis of the information from that market is needed and significant adjustments to the related prices may be necessary to estimate fair value in accordance with the fair value measurement and disclosure guidance.

This guidance clarifies that when there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, some transactions may not be orderly. In those situations, the entity must evaluate the weight of the evidence to determine whether the transaction is orderly. The guidance provides a list of circumstances that may indicate that a transaction is not orderly. A transaction price that is not associated with an orderly transaction is given little, if any, weight when estimating fair value.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Inputs to valuation techniques refer to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Inputs may be observable, meaning those that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from independent sources, or unobservable, meaning those that reflect the reporting entity’s own belief about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based upon the best information available in the circumstances. Fair value measurement and disclosure guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

 

Level 1 Inputs   -   Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

 

F-36


Table of Contents

MID PENN BANCORP, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Level 2 Inputs   -   Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability;
Level 3 Inputs   -   Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).

A description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth below.

There were no transfers of assets between fair value Level 1 and Level 2 for the years ended December 31, 2016 or 2015. The following tables illustrate the assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis segregated by hierarchy fair value levels:

(b) Appraisals may be adjusted downward by management for qualitative factors such as economic conditions and estimated liquidation expenses. The range of liquidation expenses and other appraisal adjustments are presented as a percent of the appraisal. Higher downward adjustments are caused by negative changes to the collateral or conditions in the real estate market, actual offers or sales contracts received, or age of the appraisal.
(c) Includes qualitative adjustments by management and estimated liquidation expenses.

The following methodologies and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of certain assets and liabilities:

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Interest-bearing Balances with other Financial Institutions:

The estimate of fair value was determined by comparing the present value of quoted interest rates on like deposits with the weighted average yield and weighted average maturity of the balances.

Securities Available for sale:

The fair value of securities classified as available for sale is determined by obtaining quoted market prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1), or matrix pricing (level 2), which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted market prices for the specific securities but rather relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted prices.

Impaired Loans (included in “Net Loans and Leases” in the following tables):

Mid Penn’s rating system assumes any loans classified as substandard nonaccrual to be impaired, and most of these loans are considered collateral dependent; therefore, most of Mid Penn’s impaired loans, whether reporting a specific allocation or not, are considered collateral dependent.

It is Mid Penn’s policy to obtain updated third party valuations on all impaired loans collateralized by real estate as soon as practically possible of the credit being classified as substandard nonaccrual. Prior to receipt of the updated real estate valuation Mid Penn will use any existing real estate valuation to determine any potential allowance issues; however, no allowance recommendation will be made until Mid Penn is in receipt of the updated valuation.

In some instances Mid Penn is not holding real estate as collateral and is relying on business assets (personal property) for repayment. In these circumstances a collateral inspection is performed by Mid Penn personnel to determine an estimated value. The value is based on net book value, as provided by the financial statements, and discounted accordingly based on determinations made by management. Occasionally, Mid Penn will employ an outside service to provide a fair estimate of value based on auction sales or private sales. Management reviews the estimates of these third parties and discounts them accordingly based on management’s judgment, if deemed necessary. Mid Penn considers the estimates used in its impairment analysis to be Level 3 inputs.

Mid Penn actively monitors the values of collateral on impaired loans. This monitoring may require the modification of collateral values over time or changing circumstances by some factor, either positive or negative, from the original values. All collateral values will be assessed by management at least every 12 months for possible revaluation by an independent third party.

Loans:

For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and which entail no significant changes in credit risk, carrying values approximated fair value. The fair value of other loans are estimated by calculating the present value of the cash flow difference between the current rate and the market rate, for the average maturity, discounted quarterly at the market rate.

Foreclosed Assets Held for Sale:

Assets included in foreclosed assets held for sale are carried at fair value, less costs to sell, and accordingly is presented as measured on a non-recurring basis. Values are estimated using Level 3 inputs, based on appraisals that consider the sales prices of property in the proximate vicinity.

Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable:

The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable and payable approximates their fair values.

Restricted Investment in Bank Stocks:

The carrying amount of required and restricted investment in correspondent bank stock approximates fair value, and considers the limited marketability of such securities.

Mortgage Servicing Rights:

The fair value of servicing rights is based on the present value of estimated future cash flows on pools of mortgages stratified by rate and maturity date.

Deposits:

The fair value for demand deposits (e.g., interest and noninterest checking, savings, and money market deposit accounts) is by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e. their carrying amounts). Fair value for fixed-rate certificates of deposit was estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation by combining all fixed-rate certificates into a pool with a weighted average yield and a weighted average maturity for the pool and comparing the pool with interest rates currently being offered on a similar maturity.

Short-term Borrowings:

Because of time to maturity, the estimated fair value of short-term borrowings approximates the book value.

Long-term Borrowings and Subordinated Debt:

The estimated fair values of long-term borrowings and subordinated debt were determined using discounted cash flow analysis, based on currently available borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Commitments to Extend Credit and Letters of Credit:

The fair value of commitments to extend credit is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account market interest rates, the remaining terms and present credit worthiness of the counterparties. The fair value of guarantees and letters of credit is based on fees currently charged for similar agreements.

(15) Postretirement Benefit Plans

Mid Penn has an unfunded noncontributory defined benefit Plan for directors. The Plan provides defined benefits based on years of service.

Mid Penn also has other postretirement benefit Plans covering certain full-time employees. These health care and life insurance Plans are noncontributory.

The significant aspects of each Plan are as follows:

 

  (a) Health Insurance

For full-time employees who retire at age 55 or later, after completion of at least 20 years of service, Mid Penn will reimburse up to $5,000 in premiums for major medical insurance for a period ending on the earlier of the date the participant obtains other employment where major medical coverage is available or the date of the participant’s death; however, in all cases payment of medical premiums by Mid Penn will not exceed five years. If the retiree becomes eligible for Medicare within the five-year period beginning on his/her retirement date, the Bank will reimburse up to $5,000 in premiums for Medicare Advantage or a similar supplemental coverage. After the five-year period has expired, all Mid Penn paid benefits cease; however, the retiree may continue coverage through the Bank at his/her own expense. This Plan was amended in 2008 to encompass only those employees that had achieved ten years of full-time continuous service to Mid Penn as of January 1, 2008. Employees hired after that date and those that had not achieved the service requirements are not eligible for the Plan.

 

  (b) Life Insurance

For full-time employees who retire at age 55 or later, after completion of at least 20 years of service, Mid Penn will provide term life insurance. The amount of coverage prior to age 65 will be three times the participant’s annual salary at retirement or $50,000, whichever is less. After age 65, the life insurance coverage amount will decrease by 10% per year, subject to a minimum amount of $5,000.

 

  (c) Directors’ Retirement Plan

Mid Penn has an unfunded defined benefit retirement Plan for directors with benefits based on years of service. The adoption of this Plan generated unrecognized prior service cost of $274,000, which is being amortized over the expected future years of service of active directors. The unamortized balance at December 31, 2016, was $43,000.

Mid Penn has capped the benefit to future retirees under its post-retirement health benefit plan. Employees who had achieved ten years of service as of January 1, 2008 and subsequently retire after at least 20 years of service are eligible for reimbursement of major medical insurance premiums up to $5,000, if the employee has not yet reached age 65. Upon becoming eligible for Medicare, Mid Penn will reimburse up to $5,000 in premiums for Medicare Advantage or a similar supplemental coverage. The maximum reimbursement period will not exceed five years regardless of retirement age and will end upon the participant obtaining other employment where major medical coverage is available or the participant’s death.

The Bank is the owner and beneficiary of insurance policies on the lives of certain officers and directors, which informally fund the retirement plan obligation. The aggregate cash surrender value of these policies was $3,834,000 and $3,764,000 at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

(16) Other Benefit Plans

 

  (a) 401(k) Plan

The Bank has a 401(k) plan that covers substantially all full-time employees. The Plan allows employees to contribute a portion of their salaries and wages to the Plan. The Plan provides for the Bank to match a portion of employee-elected salary deferrals, subject to certain percentage maximums of their salaries and wages. The Bank’s contribution to the Plan was $362,000, $321,000, and $216,000 for the years ending December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014, respectively.

 

  (b) Defined-Contribution Plan

The benefit is payable beginning at age 65 for a period of 15 years. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Bank accrued a liability of approximately $254,000 and $237,000, respectively, for the Agreement. The expense related to the Agreement was $17,000 for 2016, $16,000 for 2015, and $15,000 for 2014.

The Bank is the owner and beneficiary of an insurance policy on the life of the participating former executive officer, which supports the funding of the benefit obligation. The aggregate cash surrender value of this policy was approximately $1,284,000 and $1,253,000 at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

  (e) Split Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements

At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Bank had Split Dollar Life Insurance arrangements with two former executives for which the aggregate collateral assignment and cash surrender values are approximately $1,801,000 and $1,806,000, respectively.

In assessing the realizability of federal or state deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and prudent, feasible and permissible as well as available tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not that Mid Penn will realize the benefits of these deferred tax assets.

Mid Penn has no unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective income tax rate in future periods. Mid Penn does not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly increase or decrease in the next twelve months.

No amounts for interest and penalties were recorded in income tax expense in the consolidated statement of income for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, or 2014. There were no amounts accrued for interest and penalties at December 31, 2016 or 2015.

Mid Penn and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax and income tax for the state of Pennsylvania. With limited exceptions, Mid Penn is no longer subject to examination by taxing authorities for years before 2013.

 

(18) Regulatory Matters

Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc., is a bank holding company and, as such, chooses to maintain a well-capitalized status in its bank subsidiary. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require Mid Penn to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth below) of Tier 1 Capital to average assets and of Total Capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets. As of December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, Mid Penn met all capital adequacy requirements to which the Bank is subject, and the Bank is considered “well-capitalized”. However, future changes in regulations could increase capital requirements and may have an adverse effect on capital resources.

The federal banking agencies have substantially amended the regulatory risk-based capital rules applicable to Mid Penn. The amendments implemented the Basel III regulatory capital reforms and changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act. The amended rules included new minimum risk-based capital and leverage ratios, which became effective in January 2015, with certain requirements to be phased in beginning in 2016, and refined the definition of what constitutes “capital” for purposes of calculating those ratios.

The new minimum capital level requirements applicable to Mid Penn include: (i) a new common equity Tier I capital ratio of 4.5%; (ii) a Tier I capital ratio of 6.0% (increased from 4.0 %); (iii) a Total Capital ratio of 8.0% (unchanged from current rules); and (iv) a Tier I leverage ratio of 4.0% for all institutions. The amended rules also establish a “capital conservation buffer” of 2.5% above the new regulatory minimum capital ratios, and would result in the following minimum ratios: (i) a common equity Tier I capital ratio of 7.0%; (ii) a Tier I capital ratio of 8.5%; and (iii) a Total Capital ratio of 10.5%. The new capital conservation buffer requirement was phased in beginning in January 2016 at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and will increase each year until fully implemented in January 2019. An institution will be subject to limitations on paying dividends, engaging in share repurchases, and paying discretionary bonuses if its capital level falls below the buffer amount. These limitations will establish a maximum percentage of eligible retained income that could be utilized for such actions.

Certain restrictions exist regarding the ability of the Bank to transfer funds to the Corporation in the form of cash dividends, loans, or advances. The amount of dividends that may be paid in any calendar year is limited

to the current year’s net profits, combined with the retained net profits of the preceding two years. At December 31, 2016, $5,311,000 of undistributed earnings of the Bank included in the consolidated shareholders’ equity was available for distribution to the Corporation as dividends without prior regulatory approval, subject to regulatory capital requirements below.

Mid Penn maintained the following regulatory capital levels, leverage ratios, and risk-based capital ratios as of December 31, 2016, and December 31, 2015, as follows:

(19) Concentration of Risk and Off-Balance Sheet Risk

The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.

The Bank evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit

evaluation of the borrower. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant, and equipment, and income-producing commercial properties. The Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit written is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for direct, funded loans.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The term of these standby letters of credit is generally one year or less. The amount of the liability as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 for guarantees under letters of credit issued is not material.

As of December 31, 2016, commitments to extend credit amounted to $201,749,000 and standby letters of credit amounted to $14,000,000. As of December 31, 2015, commitments to extend credit amounted to $157,338,000 and standby letters of credit amounted to $15,805,000.

Additionally, Mid Penn has sold loans to the FHLB as part of its Mortgage Partnership Finance Program (“Program). Under the terms of the Program, there is limited recourse back to Mid Penn for loans that do not perform in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement. Each loan that is sold under the Program is “credit enhanced” such that the individual loan’s rating is raised to “BBB”, as determined by the FHLB. The Program can be terminated by either the FHLB or Mid Penn, without cause, by giving notice to the other party. The FHLB has no obligation to commit to purchase any mortgage through, or from, Mid Penn. The total balance of loans sold under the Program was $9,206,000 and $5,958,000 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.

Significant concentration of credit risk may occur when obligations of parties engaged in similar activities occur and accumulate in significant amounts.

In analyzing the Bank’s exposure to significant concentration of credit risk, management set a parameter of 10% or more of the Bank’s total net loans outstanding as the threshold in determining whether the obligations of the same or affiliated parties would be classified as significant concentration of credit risk. Concentrations by industry, product line, type of collateral, etc., are also considered. U.S. Treasury securities, obligations of U.S. government agencies and corporations, and any assets collateralized by the same were excluded.

As of December 31, 2016, commercial real estate financing was the only similar activity that met the requirements to be classified as a significant concentration of credit risk. However, there is a geographical concentration in that most of the Bank’s business activity is with customers located in Central Pennsylvania, specifically within the Bank’s trading area made up of Cumberland, Dauphin, Lancaster, Luzerne, Northumberland, and Schuylkill Counties.

The Bank’s highest concentrations of credit within the loan portfolio is in commercial real estate financing (48.8 %) as of December 31, 2016.

Mid Penn is subject to lawsuits and claims arising out of its normal conduct of business. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate disposition of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition of Mid Penn.

 

(21) Common Stock

Dividend Reinvestment Plan

Under Mid Penn’s amended and restated dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”), 330,750 of Mid Penn’s authorized but unissued common stock are reserved for issuance. The DRIP also allows for voluntary cash payments within specified limits, for the purchase of additional shares.

Restricted Stock Plan

On June 25, 2014, the 2014 Restricted Stock Plan was registered under which awards shall not exceed, in the aggregate, 100,000 shares of common stock. The Plan was established for employees and directors of Mid Penn and the Bank, selected by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, to advance the best interest of Mid Penn and its shareholders. The Plan provides those persons who have a responsibility for its growth with additional incentives by allowing them to acquire an ownership interest in Mid Penn and thereby encouraging them to contribute to the success of the company. Share-based compensation expense relating to restricted stock is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting periods of the awards and is a component of salaries and benefits expense. As of December 31, 2016, 16,045 shares have been granted under the Plan. Mid Penn granted 7,540 shares in 2016, 5,475 shares in 2015, and 3,500 shares in 2014. In 2016, 470 of the granted shares were cancelled due to the exit of a plan participant.

The following table presents compensation expense and related tax benefits for restricted stock awards recognized on the consolidated statement of income.

(24) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

ASU 2017-04: The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2017-04; Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment

The amendments in this ASU are required for public business entities and other entities that have goodwill reported in their financial statements and have not elected the private company alternative for the subsequent measurement of goodwill. To simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill, the Update eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. An entity should now perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with it carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unity. Additionally, an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable.

The ASU eliminates the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment, and if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. Therefore, the same impairment assessment applies to all reporting units. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary.

An entity should apply the amendments in this Update on a prospective basis. A public business entity should adopt the amendments in this Update for its annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017.

Mid Penn elected to early adopt this ASU as it currently complies by comparing its fair value to its carrying value. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on Mid Penn’s consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2016-15: The FASB issued ASU 2016-15; Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments

The ASU clarifies how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The amendments are intended to reduce diversity in practice.

 

    Cash payments for debt prepayment or extinguishment costs will be classified in financing activities.

 

    Upon settlement of zero-coupon bonds and bonds with insignificant cash coupons, the portion of the payment attributable to imputed interest will be classified as an operating activity, while the portion of the payment attributable to principal will be classified as a financing activity.

 

    Cash paid by an acquirer that isn’t soon after a business combination for the settlement of a contingent consideration liability will be separated between financing activities and operating activities. Cash payments up to the amount of the contingent consideration liability recognized at the acquisition date will be classified in financing activities; any excess will be classified in operating activities. Cash paid soon after the business combination will be classified in investing activities.

 

    Cash proceeds received from the settlement of insurance claims will be classified on the basis of the related insurance coverage (that is, the nature of the loss). Cash proceeds from lump-sum settlements will be classified based on the nature of each loss included in the settlement.

 

    Cash proceeds received from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance (“COLI”) and BOLI policies will be classified as cash inflows from investing activities. Cash payments for premiums on COLI and BOLI may be classified as cash outflows for investing, operating, or a combination of both.

 

    A transferor’s beneficial interest obtained in a securitization of financial assets will be disclosed as a noncash activity, and cash received from beneficial interests will be classified in investing activities.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

    Distributions received from equity method investees will be classified using either a cumulative earnings approach or a look- through approach as an accounting policy election.

The ASU contains additional guidance clarifying when an entity should separate cash receipts and cash payments and classify them into more than one class of cash flows (including when reasonable judgment is required to estimate and allocate cash flows) versus when an entity should classify the aggregate amount into one class of cash flows on the basis of predominance.

The amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. For all other entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period.

Mid Penn is currently evaluating this ASU, particularly related to cash payments for debt prepayment costs and cash proceeds received from the settlement of BOLI policies as these areas might affect Mid Penn in the future. This ASU, however, is not expected to have a material impact on Mid Penn’s consolidated financial statements because the guidance only affects the classification within the statement of cash flows,

ASU 2016-13: The FASB issued ASU 2016-13; Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments

The ASU requires credit losses on most financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments to be measured using an expected credit loss model (referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model). Under this model, entities will estimate credit losses over the entire contractual term of the instrument (considering estimated prepayments, but not expected extensions or modifications unless reasonable expectation of a troubled debt restructuring exists) from the date of initial recognition of that instrument.

The ASU also replaces the current accounting model for purchased credit impaired loans and debt securities. The allowance for purchased financial assets with a more-than insignificant amount of credit deterioration since origination (“PCD assets”), should be determined in a similar manner to other financial assets measured on an amortized cost basis. However, upon initial recognition, the allowance is added to the purchase price (“gross up approach”) to determine the initial amortized cost basis. The subsequent accounting for PCD financial assets is the same expected loss model described above.

Further, the ASU made certain targeted amendments to the existing impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities. For an AFS debt security for which there is neither the intent nor a more-likely-than-not requirement to sell, an entity will record credit losses as an allowance rather than a write-down of the amortized cost basis. Certain incremental disclosures are required.

The Update has tiered effective dates, with early adoption permitted for all entities as of the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2018. For public business entities that are SEC filers, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other public business entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, including not-for-profit entities and employee benefit plans within the scope of Topics 960 through 965 on plan accounting, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021.

Mid Penn is currently evaluating the details of this ASU and the impact the guidance will have on Mid Penn’s consolidated financial statements. Mid Penn expects that it is possible that the ASU will result in an increase in the allowance for credit losses resulting from the change to expected losses for the estimated life

of the financial asset, including an allowance for debt securities. The amount of the increase in the allowance for credit losses resulting from the new guidance will be impacted by the portfolio composition and asset quality at the adoption date, as well as economic conditions and forecasts at the time of adoption.

ASU 2016-09: The FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.

The ASU introduces targeted amendments intended to simplify the accounting for stock compensation. Specifically, the ASU requires all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies (including tax benefits of dividends on share-based payment awards) to be recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement. The tax effects of exercised or vested awards should be treated as discrete items in the reporting period in which they occur. An entity also should recognize excess tax benefits, and assess the need for a valuation allowance, regardless of whether the benefit reduces taxes payable in the current period. That is, off balance sheet accounting for net operating losses stemming from excess tax benefits would no longer be required and instead such net operating losses would be recognized when they arise. Existing net operating losses that are currently tracked off balance sheet would be recognized, net of a valuation allowance if required, through an adjustment to opening retained earnings in the period of adoption. Entities will no longer need to maintain and track an “APIC pool.” The ASU also requires excess tax benefits to be classified along with other income tax cash flows as an operating activity in the statement of cash flows.

In addition, the ASU elevates the statutory tax withholding threshold to qualify for equity classification up to the maximum statutory tax rates in the applicable jurisdiction(s). The ASU also clarifies that cash paid by an employer when directly withholding shares for tax withholding purposes should be classified as a financing activity. The ASU provides an optional accounting policy election (with limited exceptions), to be applied on an entity-wide basis, to either estimate the number of awards that are expected to vest (consistent with existing U.S. GAAP) or account for forfeitures when they occur.

The amendments are effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted.

Mid Penn currently provides share-based stock compensation to members of its Senior Management team who have a responsibility for its growth as disclosed in Note 21. Mid Penn expects the adoption of this ASU to have no material impact on its consolidated financial statements as the current.

ASU 2016-07: The FASB issued ASU 2016-07, Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting.

The ASU requires an investor to initially apply the equity method of accounting from the date it qualifies for that method, i.e., the date the investor obtains significant influence over the operating and financial policies of an investee. It also eliminates the previous requirement to retroactively adjust the investment and record a cumulative catch up for the periods that the investment had been held, but did not qualify for the equity method of accounting.

The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. The amendments should be applied prospectively upon their effective date to increases in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence that result in the application of the equity method. Early adoption is permitted.

Mid Penn currently does not have a material volume of equity method or joint venture investments; therefore, this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2016-02: The FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases.

The new leases standard applies a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record, for all leases with a lease term of more than 12 months, an asset representing its right to use the underlying asset and a liability to make lease payments. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a practical expedient is

 

F-57


Table of Contents

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

available whereby a lessee may elect, by class of underlying asset, not to recognize an ROU asset or lease liability. At inception, lessees must classify all leases as either finance or operating based on five criteria. Balance sheet recognition of finance and operating leases is similar, but the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement, as well as the effect on the statement of cash flows, differs depending on the lease classification.

The new leases standard requires a lessor to classify leases as either sales-type, direct financing or operating, similar to existing U.S. GAAP. Classification depends on the same five criteria used by lessees plus certain additional factors. The subsequent accounting treatment for all three lease types is substantially equivalent to existing U.S. GAAP for sales-type leases, direct financing leases, and operating leases. However, the new standard updates certain aspects of the lessor accounting model to align it with the new lessee accounting model, as well as with the new revenue standard under Topic 606.

Lessees and lessors are required to provide certain qualitative and quantitative disclosures to enable users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The new leases standard addresses other considerations including identification of a lease, separating lease and non-lease components of a contract, sale and leaseback transactions, modifications, combining contracts, reassessment of the lease term, and remeasurement of lease payments. It also contains comprehensive implementation guidance with practical examples.

The amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. Specific transition requirements apply.

Mid Penn occupies certain offices under non-cancelable operating lease agreements, which currently are not reflected in its consolidated statement of condition. Mid Penn expects to recognize lease liabilities and ROU assets associated with these lease agreements; however, the extent of the impact on Mid Penn’s consolidated financial statements is currently under evaluation.

ASU 2016-01: The FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.

This ASU requires equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income, excluding equity investments that are consolidated or accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The ASU allows equity investments without readily determinable fair values to be measured at cost minus impairment, with a qualitative assessment required to identify impairment. The ASU also requires public companies to use exit prices to measure the fair value of financial instruments, eliminates the disclosure requirements related to measurement assumptions for the fair value of instruments measured at amortized cost, and requires separate presentation of financials assets and liabilities based on form and measurement category. In addition, for liabilities measured a fair value under the fair value option, the changes in fair value due to changes in instrument-specific credit risk should be recognized in OCI.

This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years.

As of December 31, 2016, Mid Penn held $2,156,000 of equity investments (excluding restricted investments in bank stocks). Mid Penn does not expect to make significant increases in the volume of its equity investments; therefore, the adoption of this ASU is not expected to be material to Mid Penn’s consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2015-16: The FASB issued ASU 2015-16, Business Combination (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments).

The ASU requires adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period to be recognized in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. This includes any

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects as a result of the change to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date.

In addition, the amendments in the proposed ASU would require an entity to disclose (either on the face of the income statement or in the notes) the nature and amount of measurement-period adjustments recognized in the current period, including separately the amounts in current-period income statement line items that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date.

The amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in this ASU should be applied prospectively to measurement-period adjustments that occur after the effective date of this ASU.

Mid Penn early adopted this guidance in 2015. The adoption of this guidance was not material to the consolidated financial statements. See Note 4 “Mergers and Acquisitions” regarding business combinations.

ASU 2014-09: The FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).

The amendments in this Update establish a comprehensive revenue recognition standard for virtually all industries under U.S. GAAP, including those that previously followed industry-specific guidance such as the real estate, construction and software industries. The revenue standard’s core principle is built on the contract between a vendor and a customer for the provision of goods and services. It attempts to depict the exchange of rights and obligations between the parties in the pattern of revenue recognition based on the consideration to which the vendor is entitled. To accomplish this objective, the standard requires five basic steps: (i) identify the contract with the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date. This ASU defers the effective date of ASU 2014-09 for all entities by one year.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net), as an amendment to ASU 2014-09 to improve Topic 606, by reducing: (i) the potential for diversity in practice arising from inconsistent and application of the principal versus agent guidance, and (ii) the cost and complexity of applying Topic 606 both at transition and on an ongoing basis.

In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, as an amendment to ASU 2014-09 to improve Topic 606, by reducing: (i) the potential for diversity in practice at initial applications, and (ii) the cost and complexity of applying Topic 606 both at transition and on an ongoing basis.

In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients. The amendments in this ASU do not change the core principles of Topic 606. These amendments affect only the narrow aspects of Topic 606: (i) Collectability Criterion, (ii) Presentation of Sales Taxes and Other Similar Taxes Collected from Customers, (iii) Noncash Consideration, (iv) Contract Modifications at Transition, and (v) Completed Contracts at Transition.

ASU 2014-09, including transition requirements for all amendments, is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted as of the original effective date for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Mid Penn’s implementation efforts include the identification of revenue within the scope of the guidance, particularly in regards to assessing collectability. Mid Penn’s review is ongoing, and it will continue to evaluate any impact as additional guidance is issued and as its internal assessment progresses.

ASU 2015-03: The FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.

The ASU requires that debt issuance costs be reported in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the face amount of the related liability, consistent with the presentation of debt discounts. Prior to the amendments, debt issuance costs were presented as a deferred charge (i.e., an asset) on the balance sheet. The ASU provides examples illustrating the balance sheet presentation of notes net of their related discounts and debt issuance costs. Further, the amendments require the amortization of debt issuance costs to be reported as interest expense. Similarly, debt issuance costs and any discount or premium are considered in the aggregate when determining the effective interest rate on the debt.

The amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments are effective for all other entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. The amendments must be applied retrospectively. All entities have the option of adopting the new requirements as of an earlier date for financial statements that have not been previously issued.

Mid Penn adopted this ASU in March of 2016. The adoption of this guidance had no material impact on Mid Penn’s consolidated financial statements.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

(1) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Mid Penn Bank (the “Bank”), and the Bank’s former wholly-owned subsidiary, Mid Penn Insurance Services, LLC (collectively, “Mid Penn”). All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Effective March 1, 2016, Mid Penn Insurance Services, LLC, an immaterial subsidiary of the Bank, was liquidated.

Certain information and disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Mid Penn believes the information presented is not misleading and the disclosures are adequate. For comparative purposes, the June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2016 balances have been reclassified, when, and if necessary, to conform to the 2017 presentation. Such reclassifications had no impact on net income. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of operating results expected for the full year. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

On March 29, 2017, Mid Penn announced the signing of a definitive merger agreement with The Scottdale Bank and Trust Company (“Scottdale”). Under the merger agreement, Scottdale will merge with and into Mid Penn Bank, with Mid Penn Bank as the surviving bank. Before the merger is completed, the shareholders of Mid Penn and Scottdale must approve and adopt the merger agreement, and customary regulatory approvals must be received. Refer to Note 12, Agreement and Plan of Merger, as well as Form 8-K filed on March 30, 2017, for more information.

Mid Penn has evaluated events and transactions occurring subsequent to the balance sheet date of June 30, 2017, for items that should potentially be recognized or disclosed in these consolidated financial statements. The evaluation was conducted through the date these consolidated financial statements were issued.

 

(2) Investment Securities

Securities to be held for indefinite periods, but not intended to be held to maturity, are classified as available-for-sale and carried at fair value. Securities held for indefinite periods include securities that management intends to use as part of its asset and liability management strategy and that may be sold in response to liquidity needs, changes in interest rates, resultant prepayment risk, pledging requirements, and other factors related to effective portfolio management. Securities to be held to maturity are carried at amortized cost.

Realized gains and losses on dispositions are based on the net proceeds and the amortized cost of the securities sold, using the specific identification method. Unrealized gains and losses on investment securities are based on the difference between the amortized cost and fair value of each security as of the respective reporting date. Unrealized gains and losses are credited or charged to other comprehensive income, whereas realized gains and losses flow through Mid Penn’s consolidated statements of income for the respective period.

ASC Topic 320, Investments—Debt and Equity Securities, clarifies the interaction of the factors that should be considered when determining whether a debt security is other-than-temporarily impaired. For debt securities, management must assess, in addition to the credit condition of the underlying issuer, whether (a) it has the intent to sell the security and (b) it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security prior to its anticipated recovery. These steps are done before assessing whether the entity will recover the cost basis of the investment.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

In instances when a determination is made that other-than-temporary impairment exists but the investor does not intend to sell the debt security and it is not more likely than not that it will be required to sell the debt security prior to its anticipated recovery, this guidance changes the presentation and amount of the other-than-temporary impairment recognized in the income statement. The other-than-temporary impairment is separated into (a) the amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to a decrease in cash flows expected to be collected from the debt security (the credit loss) and (b) the amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to all other factors. The amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to the credit loss is recognized in earnings. The amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to all other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income.

Mid Penn had no securities considered by management to be other-than-temporarily impaired as of June 30, 2017, December 31, 2016, or June 30, 2016, and did not record any securities impairment charges in the respective periods ended on these dates. Mid Penn does not consider the securities with unrealized losses on the respective dates to be other-than-temporarily impaired as the unrealized losses were deemed to relate to changes in interest rates, and not erosion of credit quality.

The amortized cost, fair value, and unrealized gains and losses on investment securities at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 are as follows:

There were no held-to-maturity securities as of December 31, 2016.

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment on at least a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such additional evaluation. Consideration is given to the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than amortized cost and the financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer. In addition, for debt securities, Mid Penn considers (a) whether management has the intent to sell the security, (b) it is more likely than not that management will be required to sell the security prior to its anticipated recovery, and (c) whether management expects to recover the entire amortized cost basis. For equity securities, management considers the intent and ability to hold securities until recovery of unrealized losses.

The majority of the investment portfolio is comprised of securities issued by U.S. government agencies and state and political subdivision obligations. For the investment securities with an unrealized loss, Mid Penn has concluded, based on its analysis, that the unrealized losses were primarily caused by the movement of interest rates and not due to an erosion of credit quality of the underlying issuers.

At June 30, 2017, the majority of the unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position were attributed to obligations of state and political subdivisions and U.S. Treasury and government agencies, while the majority of the unrealized losses on held-to-maturity securities in an unrealized loss position were attributed to mortgage-backed U.S. government agencies. At December 31, 2016, the majority of the unrealized losses on securities in an unrealized loss position were attributed to state and political subdivision obligations and U.S. Treasury and government agencies.

(3) Loans and Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

Loans receivable that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are stated at their outstanding unpaid principal balances, net of an allowance for loan losses and any deferred fees or costs. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the yield (interest income) of the related loans, generally being amortized over the contractual life of the loan. Premiums and discounts on purchased loans are amortized as adjustments to interest income using the effective yield method.

The loan portfolio is segmented into commercial and consumer loans. Commercial loans consist of the following classes: commercial and industrial, commercial real estate, commercial real estate-construction and lease financing. Consumer loans consist of the following classes: residential mortgage loans, home equity loans and other consumer loans.

For all classes of loans, the accrual of interest generally is discontinued when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days or more past due, or management has serious doubts about further collectability of principal or interest even though the loan is currently performing. A loan past due 90 days or more may remain on accrual status if it is in the process of collection and is either guaranteed or well secured. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, unpaid interest is credited to income. Interest received on nonaccrual loans, including impaired loans, is either applied against principal or reported as interest income, according to management’s judgment as to the collectability of principal. Nonaccrual loans may be restored to accrual status when the obligation is brought current, has performed in accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable period of time (generally, at least nine consecutive months) and the ultimate collectability of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in doubt. The past due status of all classes of loans receivable is determined based on contractual due dates for loan payments.

Commercial and industrial

Mid Penn originates commercial and industrial loans. Most of the Bank’s commercial and industrial loans have been extended to finance local and regional businesses and include short-term loans to finance machinery and equipment purchases, inventory, and accounts receivable. Commercial loans also involve the extension of revolving credit for a combination of equipment acquisitions and working capital in expanding companies.

The maximum term for loans extended on machinery and equipment is based on the projected useful life of such machinery and equipment. Generally, the maximum term on non-mortgage lines of credit is one year. The loan-to-value ratio on such loans and lines of credit generally may not exceed 80 percent of the value of the collateral securing the loan. The Bank’s commercial business lending policy includes credit file documentation and analysis of the borrower’s character, capacity to repay the loan, the adequacy of the borrower’s capital and collateral as well as an evaluation of conditions affecting the borrower. Analysis of the borrower’s past, present, and future cash flows is also an important aspect of the Bank’s current credit analysis. Nonetheless, such loans are believed to carry higher credit risk than other extensions of credit.

Commercial and industrial loans typically are made on the basis of the borrower’s ability to make repayment from the cash flow of the borrower’s business. As a result, the availability of funds for the repayment of commercial business loans may be substantially dependent on the success of the business itself, which, in turn, is likely to be dependent upon the general economic environment. Mid Penn’s commercial and industrial loans are usually, but not always, secured by business assets and personal guarantees. However, the collateral securing the loans may depreciate over time, may be difficult to appraise, and may fluctuate in value based on the success of the business.

Commercial real estate and commercial real estate—construction

Commercial real estate and commercial real estate construction loans generally present a higher level of risk than loans secured by one-to-four family residences. This greater risk is due to several factors, including the concentration of principal in a limited number of loans and borrowers, the effect of general economic conditions on income producing properties, and the increased difficulty of evaluating and monitoring these types of loans. In addition, the repayment of loans secured by commercial real estate is typically dependent upon the successful operation of the related real estate project. If the cash flow from the project is reduced, the borrower’s ability to repay the loan may be impaired.

Residential mortgage

Mid Penn offers a wide array of residential mortgage loans for both permanent structures and those under construction. The Bank’s residential mortgage originations are secured primarily by properties located in its primary market and surrounding areas. Residential mortgage loans have terms up to a maximum of 30 years and with loan-to-value ratios up to 100 percent of the lesser of the appraised value of the security property or the contract price. Private mortgage insurance is generally required in an amount sufficient to reduce the Bank’s exposure to at or below the 85 percent loan to value level. Residential mortgage loans generally do not include prepayment penalties.

In underwriting residential mortgage loans, the Bank evaluates both the borrower’s ability to make monthly payments and the value of the property securing the loan. Most properties securing real estate loans made by Mid Penn are appraised by independent fee appraisers. The Bank generally requires borrowers to obtain title insurance and fire and property insurance (including flood insurance, if necessary) in an amount not less than the amount of the loan. Real estate loans originated by the Bank generally contain a “due on sale” clause allowing the Bank to declare the unpaid principal balance due and payable upon the sale of the security property.

The Bank underwrites residential mortgage loans to the standards established by the secondary mortgage market, i.e., Fannie Mae, Ginnie Mae, Freddie Mac, or Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency standards, with the intention of selling the majority of residential mortgages originated into the secondary market. In the event that the facts and circumstances surrounding a residential mortgage application do not meet all underwriting conditions of the secondary mortgage market, the Bank will evaluate the failed conditions and evaluate the potential risk of holding the residential mortgage in the Bank’s portfolio rather than rejecting

the loan request. In the event that the loan is held in the Bank’s portfolio, the interest rate on the residential mortgage would be increased to compensate for the added portfolio risk.

Consumer, including home equity

Mid Penn offers a variety of secured consumer loans, including home equity, automobile, and deposit secured loans. In addition, the Bank offers other secured and unsecured consumer loans. Most consumer loans are originated in Mid Penn’s primary market and surrounding areas.

The largest component of Mid Penn’s consumer loan portfolio consists of fixed rate home equity loans and variable rate home equity lines of credit. Substantially all home equity loans and lines of credit are secured by junior lien mortgages on principal residences. The Bank will lend amounts, which, together with all prior liens, typically may be up to 85 percent of the appraised value of the property securing the loan. Home equity term loans may have maximum terms up to 20 years while home equity lines of credit generally have maximum terms of five years.

Consumer loan terms vary according to the type and value of collateral, length of contract and creditworthiness of the borrower. The underwriting standards employed by the Bank for consumer loans include an application, a determination of the applicant’s payment history on other debts, and an assessment of ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the proposed loan. Although creditworthiness of the applicant is a primary consideration, the underwriting process also includes a comparison of the value of the collateral, if any, in relation to the proposed loan amount.

Consumer loans may entail greater credit risk than do residential mortgage loans, particularly in the case of consumer loans which are unsecured or are secured by rapidly depreciable assets, such as automobiles or recreational equipment. In such cases, any repossessed collateral for a defaulted consumer loan may not provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance. In addition, consumer loan collections are dependent on the borrower’s continuing financial stability, and thus are more likely to be affected by adverse personal circumstances. Furthermore, the application of various federal and state laws, including bankruptcy and insolvency laws, may limit the amount that can be recovered on such loans.

Junior liens inherently have more credit risk by virtue of the fact that another financial institution may have a higher security position in the case of foreclosure liquidation of collateral to extinguish the debt. Generally, foreclosure actions could become more prevalent if the real estate market weakens and property values deteriorate.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

The allowance for credit losses (“allowance”) consists of (i) the allowance for loan and lease losses, and (ii) the reserve for unfunded lending commitments. The allowance for loan and lease losses represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date and is recorded as a reduction to loans. The reserve for unfunded lending commitments represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in its unfunded loan commitments and is recorded in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. The reserve for unfunded lending commitments was $127,000 at June 30, 2017 and $120,000 at December 31, 2016. The allowance is increased by the provision for loan and lease losses, and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Loans deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance, and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. All, or part, of the principal balance of loans are charged off to the allowance as soon as it is determined that the repayment of all, or part, of the principal balance is highly unlikely. Non-residential consumer loans are generally charged off no later than 120 days past due on a contractual basis, earlier in the event of bankruptcy, or if there is an amount deemed uncollectible. Because all identified losses are immediately charged off, no portion of the allowance is restricted to any individual loan or groups of loans, and the entire allowance is available to absorb any and all loan losses.

The allowance is maintained at a level considered by management to be adequate to provide for losses that can be reasonably anticipated. Management performs a monthly evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance. The allowance is based on Mid Penn’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, composition of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions, and other relevant factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

The allowance consists of specific, general and unallocated components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as impaired. For loans that are classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows, collateral value, or observable market price of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan.

The general component covers pools of loans by loan class including commercial loans not considered impaired, as well as smaller balance homogeneous loans, such as residential real estate, home equity and other consumer loans. These pools of loans are evaluated for loss exposure based upon historical loss rates for each of these categories of loans, adjusted for qualitative factors. These qualitative risk factors include changes in economic conditions, fluctuations in loan quality measures, changes in collateral values, changes in the experience of the lending staff and loan review systems, changes in lending policies and procedures (including underwriting standards), changes in the mix and volume of loans originated, the effect of other external factors such as competition and legal and regulatory requirements on the level of estimated credit losses in the existing loan portfolio, shifting industry or portfolio concentrations, and other relevant factors.

Each factor is assigned a value to reflect improving, stable or declining conditions based on management’s best judgment using relevant information available at the time of the evaluation. Adjustments to the factors are supported through documentation of changes in conditions in a narrative accompanying the allowance for loan loss calculation.

The unallocated component of the allowance for loan and lease losses covers several considerations that are not specifically measureable through either the specific and general components. For example, we believe that we could face increasing credit risks and uncertainties, not yet reflected in recent historical losses or qualitative factor assessments, associated with unpredictable changes in economic growth or business conditions in our markets or for certain industries in which we have commercial loan borrowers, or unanticipated stresses to the values of real estate held as collateral. Any or all of these additional issues can adversely affect our borrowers’ ability to timely repay their loans. Additionally, we have experienced continued strong commercial loan growth, including growth in newer markets where we have less of a loss history. Also, the unallocated component allocation recognizes the inherent imprecision in our allowance for loan and lease loss methodology, or any alternative methodology, for estimating specific and general loan losses, including the unpredictable timing and amounts of charge-offs, the fact that historical loss averages don’t necessarily correlate to future loss trends, and unexpected changes to specific-credit or general portfolio future cash flows and collateral values which could negatively impact unimpaired portfolio loss factors.

Mid Penn generally considers a commercial loan (consisting of commercial and industrial, commercial real estate, commercial real estate-construction, and lease financing loan classes) to be impaired when it becomes 90 days or more past due and not in the process of collection or sooner when it is probable that Mid Penn will be unable to collect all contractual principal and interest due. This methodology assumes the borrower cannot or will not continue to make additional payments. At that time the loan would generally be considered collateral dependent as the discounted cash flow method would generally indicate no operating income available for evaluating the collateral position; therefore, most impaired loans are deemed to be collateral dependent.

In addition, Mid Penn’s rating system assumes any loans classified as nonaccrual, included in the substandard rating, to be impaired, and most of these loans are considered collateral dependent; therefore, most of Mid Penn’s impaired loans, whether reporting a specific allocation or not, are considered collateral dependent.

Mid Penn evaluates loans for charge-off on a monthly basis. Policies that govern the recommendation for charge-off are unique to the type of loan being considered. Commercial loans rated as substandard nonaccrual or lower will first have a collateral evaluation completed in accordance with the guidance on impaired loans. Once the collateral evaluation has been completed, a specific allocation of allowance is made based upon the results of the evaluation. The remaining balance remains a nonperforming loan with the original terms and interest rate intact (not restructured). In the event the loan is unsecured, the loan would have been charged-off at the recognition of impairment. Commercial real estate loans rated as impaired will also have an initial collateral evaluation completed in accordance with the guidance on impaired loans. An updated real estate valuation is ordered and the collateral evaluation is modified to reflect any variations in value. A specific allocation of allowance is made for any anticipated collateral shortfall. The remaining balance remains a nonperforming loan with the original terms and interest rate intact (not restructured). The process of charging off a residential mortgage loan begins when a loan becomes delinquent for 90 days and is not in the process of collection. The existing appraisal is reviewed and a lien search is obtained to determine lien position and any instances of intervening liens. A new appraisal of the property will be ordered if deemed necessary by management and a collateral evaluation is completed. The loan will then be charged down to the value indicated in the evaluation. Consumer loans (including home equity loans and other consumer loans) are recommended for charge-off after reaching delinquency of 90 days and the loan is not well-secured or otherwise not probable for collection. The collateral shortfall of the consumer loan is recommended for charge-off at this point.

As noted above, Mid Penn assesses a specific allocation for commercial loans and commercial real estate loans. The remaining balance remains a nonperforming loan with the original terms and interest rate intact (not restructured). In addition, Mid Penn takes a preemptive step when any commercial loan becomes classified under its internal classification system. A preliminary collateral evaluation, in accordance with the guidance on impaired loans, is prepared using the existing collateral information in the loan file. This process allows Mid Penn to review both the credit and documentation files to determine the status of the information needed to make a collateral evaluation. This collateral evaluation is preliminary but allows Mid Penn to determine if any potential collateral shortfalls exist.

It is Mid Penn’s policy to obtain updated third party valuations on all impaired loans collateralized by real estate as soon as practically possible of the credit being classified as substandard nonaccrual. Prior to receipt of the updated real estate valuation Mid Penn will use any existing real estate valuation to determine any potential allowance issues; however, no allowance recommendation will be made until such time Mid Penn is in receipt of the updated valuation. The Asset Recovery department employs an electronic tracking system to monitor the receipt of and need for updated appraisals. To date, there have been no material time lapses noted with the above processes.

In some instances Mid Penn is not holding real estate as collateral and is relying on business assets (personal property) for repayment. In these circumstances a collateral inspection is performed by Mid Penn personnel to determine an estimated value. The value is based on net book value, as provided by the financial statements, and discounted accordingly based on determinations made by management. Occasionally, Mid Penn will employ an outside service to provide a fair estimate of value based on auction sales or private sales. Management reviews the estimates of these third parties and discounts them accordingly based on management’s judgment, if deemed necessary.

For impaired loans with no valuation allowance required, Mid Penn’s practice of obtaining independent third party market valuations on the subject property as soon as practically possible of the credit being

placed on nonaccrual status sometimes indicates that the loan to value ratio is sufficient to obviate the need for a specific allocation in spite of significant deterioration in real estate values in Mid Penn’s primary market area. These circumstances are determined on a case by case analysis of the impaired loans.

Mid Penn actively monitors the values of collateral on impaired loans. This monitoring may require the modification of collateral values over time or changing circumstances by some factor, either positive or negative, from the original values. All collateral values will be assessed by management at least every 12 months for possible revaluation by an independent third party.

Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, Mid Penn does not separately identify individual residential mortgage loans, home equity loans and other consumer loans for impairment disclosures, unless such loans are the subject of a troubled debt restructuring agreement.

Loans whose terms are modified are classified as troubled debt restructurings if the borrowers have been granted concessions and it is deemed that those borrowers are experiencing financial difficulty. Concessions granted under a troubled debt restructuring generally involve a temporary reduction in interest rate or an extension of a loan’s stated maturity date. Nonaccrual troubled debt restructurings are restored to accrual status if principal and interest payments, under the modified terms, are current for nine consecutive months after modification. Loans classified as troubled debt restructurings are designated as impaired.

The allowance calculation methodology includes further segregation of loan classes into risk rating categories. The borrower’s overall financial condition, repayment sources, guarantors, and value of collateral, if appropriate, are evaluated annually for commercial loans or when credit deficiencies arise, such as delinquent loan payments. Credit quality risk ratings include regulatory classifications of special mention, substandard, doubtful, and loss. Loans criticized as special mention have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If uncorrected, the potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects. Loans classified substandard have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They include loans that are inadequately protected by the current sound net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans classified doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in loans classified substandard with the added characteristic that collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of current conditions and facts, is highly improbable. Loans classified as a loss are considered uncollectible and are charged to the allowance for loan losses. Any loans not classified as noted above are rated pass.

In addition, Federal and State regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Bank’s allowance and may require the Bank to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination, which may not be currently available to management. Based on management’s comprehensive analysis of the loan portfolio, management believes the current level of the allowance for loan losses is adequate.

Acquired Loans

Loans that Mid Penn acquires in connection with business combinations are recorded at fair value with no carryover of the existing related allowance for loan losses. Fair value of the loans involves estimating the amount and timing of principal and interest cash flows expected to be collected on the loans and discounting those cash flows at a market rate of interest.

The excess of cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is referred to as the accretable discount and is recognized into interest income over the remaining life of the loan. The difference between contractually required payments at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition is referred to as the nonaccretable discount. These loans are accounted for under the ASC 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. The nonaccretable discount includes estimated

future credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the loan. Subsequent decreases to the expected cash flows will require Mid Penn to evaluate the need for an additional allowance. Subsequent improvement in expected cash flows will result in the reversal of a corresponding amount of the nonaccretable discount which Mid Penn will then reclassify as accretable discount that will be recognized into interest income over the remaining life of the loan.

Loans acquired through business combinations that meet the specific criteria of ASC 310-30 are individually evaluated each period to analyze expected cash flows. To the extent that the expected cash flows of a loan have decreased due to credit deterioration, Mid Penn establishes an allowance.

Loans acquired through business combinations that do not meet the specific criteria of ASC 310-30 are accounted for under ASC 310-20. These loans are initially recorded at fair value, and include credit and interest rate marks associated with acquisition accounting adjustments. Purchase premiums or discounts are subsequently amortized as an adjustment to yield over the estimated contractual lives of the loans. There is no allowance for loan losses established at the acquisition date for acquired performing loans. An allowance for loan losses is recorded for any credit deterioration in these loans subsequent to acquisition.

Acquired loans that met the criteria for impaired or nonaccrual of interest prior to the acquisition may be considered performing upon acquisition, regardless of whether the customer is contractually delinquent if Mid Penn expects to fully collect the new carrying value (i.e. fair value) of the loans. As such, Mid Penn may no longer consider the loan to be nonaccrual or nonperforming and may accrue interest on these loans, including the impact of any accretable discount. In addition, charge-offs on such loans would be first applied to the nonaccretable difference portion of the fair value adjustment.

The classes of the loan portfolio, summarized by the pass rating (net of deferred fees and costs of $435,000 as of June 30, 2017 and $196,000 as of December 31, 2016), and the classified ratings of special mention, substandard, and doubtful within Mid Penn’s internal risk rating system as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, are as follows:

Mid Penn entered into forbearance or modification agreements on all loans currently classified as troubled debt restructures and all of these agreements have resulted in additional principal repayment. The terms of these forbearance agreements vary whereby principal payments have been decreased, interest rates have been reduced and/or the loan will be repaid as collateral is sold.

Mid Penn had troubled debt restructured loans at June 30, 2017 totaling $3,030,000. Four loans totaling $557,000 represented accruing impaired residential loans to unrelated borrowers in compliance with the terms of the modification, with one loan comprising $503,000 of this total. The remaining $2,473,000 representing ten loans among four relationships are nonaccrual impaired loans based upon a collateral evaluation in accordance with the guidance on impaired loans. Two large relationships accounted for $2,057,000 of the total $2,473,000 in nonaccrual impaired troubled debt restructured loans.

At December 31, 2016, Mid Penn’s troubled debt restructured loans totaled $3,515,000, of which five loans totaling $877,000 represented accruing impaired loans in compliance with the terms of the modification. Of the $877,000, four are accruing impaired residential mortgages to unrelated borrowers totaling $571,000 and the other one is an accruing impaired commercial real estate loan for $306,000. The remaining $2,638,000 representing ten loans among four relationships are nonaccrual impaired loans based upon a collateral evaluation in accordance with the guidance on impaired loans. Two large relationships account for $2,170,000 of the $2,638,000 nonaccrual impaired troubled debt restructured loan total.

As a result of management evaluations at June 30, 2017, June 30, 2016, and December 31, 2016, any specific allocations and charge-offs have been taken as appropriate. During the periods ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016, there were no charge-offs associated with troubled debt restructured loans under forbearance agreements. There were no troubled debt restructured loans that defaulted within twelve months of restructure during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

There were no additional troubled debt restructured loans added during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

As of June 30, 2017, Mid Penn had no residential real estate held in other real estate owned. There were three consumer mortgage loans secured by residential real estate properties totaling $140,000 for which formal foreclosure proceedings were in process. As of December 31, 2016, Mid Penn had $57,000 of residential real estate held in other real estate owned, and no loans for which formal foreclosure proceedings were in process.

(4) Fair Value Measurement

Fair value measurement and disclosure guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell the asset or transfer the liability in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. This guidance provides additional information on determining when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability has significantly decreased. The guidance also includes information on identifying circumstances when a transaction may not be considered orderly.

Fair value measurement and disclosure guidance provides a list of factors that a reporting entity should evaluate to determine whether there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability in relation to normal market activity for the asset or liability. When the reporting entity concludes there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, further analysis of the information from that market is needed and significant adjustments to the related prices may be necessary to estimate fair value in accordance with the fair value measurement and disclosure guidance.

This guidance clarifies that when there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, some transactions may not be orderly. In those situations, the entity must evaluate the weight of the evidence to determine whether the transaction is orderly. The guidance provides a list of circumstances that may indicate that a transaction is not orderly. A transaction price that is not associated with an orderly transaction is given little, if any, weight when estimating fair value.

Inputs to valuation techniques refer to the assumptions that market participants would use in measuring the fair value of an asset or liability. Inputs may be observable, meaning those that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from independent sources, or unobservable, meaning those that reflect the reporting entity’s own belief about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based upon the best information available in the circumstances. Fair value measurement and disclosure guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. An asset’s or liability’s placement in the

fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement or disclosure. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

Level 1 Inputs—Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2 Inputs—Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability;

Level 3 Inputs—Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).

A description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth below.

There were no transfers of assets between fair value Level 1 and Level 2 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

The following methodologies and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of Mid Penn’s financial instruments:

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Interest-bearing Balances with other Financial Institutions:

The estimate of fair value was determined by comparing the present value of quoted interest rates on like deposits with the weighted average yield and weighted average maturity of the balances.

Securities Available for Sale:

The fair value of securities classified as available-for-sale is determined by obtaining quoted market prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1), or matrix pricing (level 2), which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted market prices for the specific securities but rather relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted prices.

Held-to-Maturity Securities:

The fair values of held-to-maturity securities are based on a market approach using observable inputs such as benchmark yields and securities, reported trades, issuer spreads, current bids and offers, monthly payment information and collateral performance.

Loans Held for Sale:

The fair values of mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at fair value, as determined by outstanding commitments from investors.

Impaired Loans (included in “Net Loans and Leases” in the following tables):

Mid Penn’s rating system assumes any loans classified as substandard and nonaccrual to be impaired, and all of these loans are considered collateral dependent; therefore, all of Mid Penn’s impaired loans, whether reporting a specific allowance allocation or not, are considered collateral dependent.

It is Mid Penn’s policy to obtain updated third party valuations on all impaired loans collateralized by real estate within 30 days of the credit being classified as substandard nonaccrual. Prior to receipt of the updated real estate valuation Mid Penn will use any existing real estate valuation to determine any potential allowance for loan loss issues; however no allowance recommendation will be made until Mid Penn is in receipt of the updated valuation.

In some instances Mid Penn is not holding real estate as collateral and is relying on business assets (personal property) for repayment. In these circumstances a collateral inspection is performed by Mid Penn personnel to determine an estimated value. The value is based on net book value, as provided by the financial statements, and discounted accordingly based on determinations made by management. Occasionally, Mid Penn will employ an outside service to provide a fair estimate of value based on auction sales or private sales. Management reviews the estimates of these third parties and discounts them accordingly based on management’s judgment, if deemed necessary. Mid Penn considers the estimates used in its impairment analysis to be Level 3 inputs.

Mid Penn actively monitors the values of collateral on impaired loans. This monitoring may require the modification of collateral values, either in a positive or negative way, due to the passage of time or some other change in one or more valuation inputs. Collateral values for impaired loans will be reassessed by management at least every 12 months for possible revaluation by an independent third party.

Loans:

For variable rate loans that reprice frequently and which entail no significant changes in credit risk, carrying values approximated fair value. The fair value of other loans are estimated by calculating the present value of the cash flow difference between the current rate and the market rate, for the average maturity, discounted quarterly at the market rate.

Foreclosed Assets Held for Sale:

Certain assets included in foreclosed assets held for sale are carried at fair value and accordingly is presented as measured on a non-recurring basis. Values are estimated using Level 3 inputs, based on appraisals that consider the sales prices of property in the proximate vicinity.

Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable:

The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable and payable approximates their fair values.

Restricted Investment in Bank Stocks:

The carrying amount of required and restricted investment in correspondent bank stock approximates fair value, and considers the limited marketability of such securities.

Mortgage Servicing Rights:

The fair value of servicing rights is based on the present value of estimated future cash flows on pools of mortgages stratified by rate and maturity date.

Deposits:

The fair value for demand deposits (e.g., interest and noninterest checking, savings, and money market deposit accounts) is, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e. their carrying amounts). Fair value for fixed-rate certificates of deposit was estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation by combining all fixed-rate certificates into a pool with a weighted average yield and a weighted average maturity for the pool and comparing the pool with interest rates currently being offered on a similar maturity.

Short-term Borrowings:

Because of time to maturity, the estimated fair value of short-term borrowings approximates the book value.

Long-term and Subordinated Debt:

The estimated fair values of long-term and subordinated debt were determined using discounted cash flow analysis, based on currently available borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Commitments to Extend Credit and Letters of Credit:

The fair value of commitments to extend credit is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account market interest rates, the remaining terms and present credit worthiness of the counterparties. The fair value of guarantees and letters of credit is based on fees currently charged for similar agreements.

The following table summarizes the carrying value and fair value of financial instruments at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

(5) Guarantees and Commitments

In the normal course of business, Mid Penn makes various commitments and incurs certain contingent liabilities which are not reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The commitments include various guarantees and commitments to extend credit. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Mid Penn evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer. Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written are conditional commitments to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. Mid Penn had $23,595,000 and $14,000,000 standby letters of credit outstanding as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016,

respectively. Mid Penn does not anticipate any losses because of these transactions. The amount of the liability as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 for payment under standby letters of credit issued was not material.

As of June 30, 2017, Mid Penn had entered into fixed asset acquisition commitments related to (i) purchasing a commercial building in Harrisburg, PA for $2,100,000; (ii) purchasing two vacant and undeveloped lots adjacent to the commercial building for approximately $462,000; and (iii) purchasing vacant land in Halifax, PA for approximately $504,000. The commercial building and adjacent lots in Harrisburg, PA will be renovated at some future time to serve as an administrative center for the Company. The Halifax land will be the site upon which Mid Penn Bank will construct a new retail office (the Company has received all required bank regulatory approvals for this branch). The purchase of the building and lots were closed and settlement payments made in July 2017. The properties are not expected to have related construction or renovations and improvements completed until late 2017 or possibly beginning in 2018; therefore, any additional costs incurred related to these properties in 2017 are not expected to have a material impact on the 2017 financial statements.

On December 9, 2015, Mid Penn sold $7,500,000 aggregate principal amount of Subordinated Debt (“Notes”) due 2025. The Notes are treated as Tier 2 capital for regulatory capital purposes.

The Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.15% per year for the first five years and then float at the Wall Street Journal’s Prime Rate plus 0.50%, provided that the interest rate applicable to the outstanding principal balance will at no time be less than 4.0%. Interest will be payable quarterly in arrears on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning on January 1, 2016. The Notes will mature on December 9, 2025 and are redeemable in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, at any time on or after December 9, 2020, and prior to December 9, 2025. Additionally, Mid Penn may redeem the Notes in whole at any time, or in part from time to time, upon at least 30 days’ notice if: (i) a change or prospective change in law occurs that could prevent Mid Penn from deducting interest payable on the Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes; (ii) an event occurs that precludes the Notes from being recognized as Tier 2 capital for regulatory capital purposes; or (iii) Mid Penn becomes required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, in each case at 100% of the principal amount of the subordinated notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to but excluding the date of redemption.

Holders of the Notes may not accelerate the maturity of the Notes, except upon Mid Penn’s or Mid Penn Bank’s bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, receivership or similar event.

ASC Subtopic 835-30, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, requires that debt issuance costs be reported in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the face amount of the related liability. The unamortized debt issuance costs associated with the Notes were $81,000 at June 30, 2017 and $86,000 at December 31, 2016.

 

(7) Defined Benefit Plans

Mid Penn has an unfunded noncontributory defined benefit retirement plan for directors. The plan provides defined benefits based on years of service. In addition, Mid Penn sponsors a defined benefit health care plan that provides post-retirement medical benefits and life insurance to qualifying full-time employees. These health care and life insurance plans are noncontributory. A December 31 measurement date for the plans is used.

(9) Common Stock

On June 25, 2014, the 2014 Restricted Stock Plan (the “Plan”) provides awards that shall not exceed, in the aggregate, 100,000 shares of common stock. Awards under the Plan are limited to employees and directors of the Company and the Bank selected by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, to advance the best interest of Mid Penn and its shareholders.

Share-based compensation expense relating to restricted stock is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting periods of the awards and is a component of salaries and benefits expense. As of June 30, 2017, a total of 16,045 restricted shares were granted under the plan, with 2,990 of the granted shares being vested, while the remaining 13,055 granted shares remain unvested. The Plan grants and vesting resulted in $19,000 in compensation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2017, while $8,000 expense was recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2016. Compensation expense related to the Plan was $37,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017, while it was $17,000 for the same period in 2016.

 

(10) Earnings per Common Share

Earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each of the years presented. The following data show the amounts used in computing basic earnings per common share.

(11) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

ASU 2017-08: The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2017-08, Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities.

The ASU shortens the amortization period for premiums on purchased callable debt securities to the earliest call date (i.e., yield-to-earliest call amortization), rather than amortizing over the full contractual term, but does not change the accounting for securities held at a discount.

The ASU applies to callable debt securities with explicit, noncontingent call features that are callable at fixed prices and on preset dates. If a security may be prepaid based upon prepayments of the underlying loans, not because the issuer exercised a date specific call option, it is excluded from the scope of the new standard. However, for instruments with contingent call features, once the contingency is resolved and the security is callable at a fixed price and preset date, the security is within the scope of the amendments. Further, it applies to all premiums on callable debt securities, regardless of how they were generated.

The ASU requires companies to reset the effective yield using the payment terms of the debt security if the call option is not exercised on the earliest call date. If the security has additional future call dates, any excess of the amortized cost basis over the amount repayable by the issuer at the next call date should be amortized to the next call date.

It is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period.

Mid Penn has early adopted this standard, and the financial statements as of and for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2017, reflect the impact of premium amortization on callable debt securities to the earliest call date.    The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on Mid Penn’s consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2017-07: The FASB issued ASU 2017-07, Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost.

The ASU requires that an employer disaggregate the service cost component from the other components of net benefit cost. Service cost must be presented in the same line item(s) as other employee compensation costs. These costs are generally included within income from continuing operations, but in some cases may be eligible for capitalization, if certain criteria are met. All other components of net benefit cost must be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations, if one is presented. These generally include interest cost, actual return on plan assets, amortization of prior service cost included in accumulated other comprehensive income, and gains or

losses from changes in the value of the projected benefit obligation or plan assets. If a separate line item is used to present the other components of net benefit cost, it must be appropriately described. If a separate line item is not used, an entity must disclose the line item(s) in the income statement that includes the other components of net benefit cost. The ASU clarifies that these costs are not eligible for capitalization.

The amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those years. For other entities, the amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual period.

As disclosed in Note 7, Defined Benefit Plans, Mid Penn does disclose the service cost component of net benefit cost, but the related amounts are not material. Accordingly, when this ASU is implemented as required, the impact to reported salaries and employee benefits expense for interim and annual periods is expected to be immaterial.

ASU 2017-05: The FASB issued ASU 2017-05, Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets.

The ASU was issued to clarify the scope of Subtopic 610-20 and to add guidance for partial sales of nonfinancial assets, including partial sales of real estate. Historically, U.S. GAAP contained several different accounting models to evaluate whether the transfer of certain assets qualified for sale treatment. Moving forward, the new standard reduces the number of potential accounting models that might apply and clarifies which model does apply in various circumstances. Specifically, it clarifies the scope of Subtopic 610-20 by defining the term “in substance nonfinancial asset”. If substantially all of the fair value of the assets (recognized and unrecognized) promised to a counterparty in a contract is concentrated in nonfinancial assets, a financial asset in the same arrangement would still be considered part of an in substance nonfinancial asset. Also, nonfinancial assets may include nonfinancial assets contained within a legal entity that is transferred to a counterparty (e.g., through transfer of ownership interest). It clarifies also that derecognition of a business is not in scope of Subtopic 610-20, but rather, is governed by Topic 810.

In addition, the ASU indicates an entity should identify each distinct nonfinancial asset (e.g., real estate and inventory) or in substance nonfinancial asset promised to a counterparty and derecognize each asset when a counterparty obtains control of it.

Finally, the ASU adds guidance on accounting for partial sales of nonfinancial assets. It requires an entity to derecognize a distinct nonfinancial asset or distinct in substance nonfinancial asset in a partial sale transaction when two criteria are met: 1) the entity does not have (or ceases to have) a controlling financial interest in the legal entity that holds the asset in accordance with Topic 810, and 2) the entity transfers control of the asset in accordance with Topic 606.

The effective date and transition requirements for the ASU are the same as the effective date and transition requirements of Topic 606, and must be applied at the same date that Topic 606 is initially applied. That is, the amendments are effective for public entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods, and for nonpublic entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Consistent with Topic 606, early adoption is permitted but no earlier than annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 for all entities.

Mid Penn has evaluated this ASU and does not anticipate the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements since Mid Penn typically does not engage in partial sale transactions.

ASU 2017-04: The FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.

The amendments in this ASU are required for public business entities and other entities that have goodwill reported in their financial statements and have not elected the private company alternative for the

 

F-95


Table of Contents

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

subsequent measurement of goodwill. To simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill, the Update eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. An entity should now perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Additionally, an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable.

The ASU eliminates the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment, and if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. Therefore, the same impairment assessment applies to all reporting units. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary.

An entity should apply the amendments in this Update on a prospective basis. A public business entity should adopt the amendments in this Update for its annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017.

Mid Penn plans to early adopt this ASU for its annual goodwill impairment test at the end of 2017 by comparing its fair value to its carrying value. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on Mid Penn’s consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2016-15: The FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments.

The ASU clarifies how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The amendments are intended to reduce diversity in practice.

 

    Cash payments for debt prepayment or extinguishment costs will be classified in financing activities.

 

    Upon settlement of zero-coupon bonds and bonds with insignificant cash coupons, the portion of the payment attributable to imputed interest will be classified as an operating activity, while the portion of the payment attributable to principal will be classified as a financing activity.

 

    Cash paid by an acquirer that isn’t soon after a business combination for the settlement of a contingent consideration liability will be separated between financing activities and operating activities. Cash payments up to the amount of the contingent consideration liability recognized at the acquisition date will be classified in financing activities; any excess will be classified in operating activities. Cash paid soon after the business combination will be classified in investing activities.

 

    Cash proceeds received from the settlement of insurance claims will be classified on the basis of the related insurance coverage (that is, the nature of the loss). Cash proceeds from lump-sum settlements will be classified based on the nature of each loss included in the settlement.

 

    Cash proceeds received from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance (“COLI”) and BOLI policies will be classified as cash inflows from investing activities. Cash payments for premiums on COLI and BOLI may be classified as cash outflows for investing, operating, or a combination of both.

 

    A transferor’s beneficial interest obtained in a securitization of financial assets will be disclosed as a noncash activity, and cash received from beneficial interests will be classified in investing activities.

 

    Distributions received from equity method investees will be classified using either a cumulative earnings approach or a look- through approach as an accounting policy election.

The ASU contains additional guidance clarifying when an entity should separate cash receipts and cash payments and classify them into more than one class of cash flows (including when reasonable judgment is required to estimate and allocate cash flows) versus when an entity should classify the aggregate amount into one class of cash flows on the basis of predominance.

The amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. For all other entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period.

Mid Penn is currently evaluating this ASU, particularly related to cash payments for debt prepayment costs and cash proceeds received from the settlement of BOLI policies as these areas might affect Mid Penn in the future. This ASU, however, is not expected to have a material impact on Mid Penn’s operating results and consolidated financial statements because the guidance only affects the classification within the statement of cash flows.

ASU 2016-13: The FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.

The ASU requires credit losses on most financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments to be measured using an expected credit loss model (referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model). Under this model, entities will estimate credit losses over the entire contractual term of the instrument (considering estimated prepayments, but not expected extensions or modifications unless reasonable expectation of a troubled debt restructuring exists) from the date of initial recognition of that instrument.

The ASU also replaces the current accounting model for purchased credit impaired loans and debt securities. The allowance for purchased financial assets with a more-than insignificant amount of credit deterioration since origination (“PCD assets”) should be determined in a similar manner to other financial assets measured on an amortized cost basis. However, upon initial recognition, the allowance is added to the purchase price (“gross up approach”) to determine the initial amortized cost basis. The subsequent accounting for PCD financial assets is the same expected loss model described above.

Further, the ASU made certain targeted amendments to the existing impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities. For an AFS debt security for which there is neither the intent nor a more-likely-than-not requirement to sell, an entity will record credit losses as an allowance rather than a write-down of the amortized cost basis. Certain incremental disclosures are required.

The Update has tiered effective dates, with early adoption permitted for all entities as of the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2018. For public business entities that are SEC filers, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other public business entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, including not-for-profit entities and employee benefit plans within the scope of Topics 960 through 965 on plan accounting, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021.

Mid Penn is currently evaluating the details of this ASU and the impact the guidance will have on Mid Penn’s consolidated financial statements. Mid Penn expects that it is possible that the ASU will result in an increase in the allowance for credit losses resulting from the change to expected losses for the estimated life of the financial asset, including an allowance for debt securities. The amount of the increase in the

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

allowance for credit losses resulting from the new guidance will be impacted by the portfolio composition and asset quality at the adoption date, as well as economic conditions and forecasts at the time of adoption.

ASU 2016-09: The FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.

The ASU introduces targeted amendments intended to simplify the accounting for stock compensation. Specifically, the ASU requires all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies (including tax benefits of dividends on share-based payment awards) to be recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement. The tax effects of exercised or vested awards should be treated as discrete items in the reporting period in which they occur. An entity also should recognize excess tax benefits, and assess the need for a valuation allowance, regardless of whether the benefit reduces taxes payable in the current period. That is, off balance sheet accounting for net operating losses stemming from excess tax benefits would no longer be required and instead such net operating losses would be recognized when they arise. Existing net operating losses that are currently tracked off balance sheet would be recognized, net of a valuation allowance if required, through an adjustment to opening retained earnings in the period of adoption. Entities will no longer need to maintain and track an “APIC pool.” The ASU also requires excess tax benefits to be classified along with other income tax cash flows as an operating activity in the statement of cash flows.

In addition, the ASU elevates the statutory tax withholding threshold to qualify for equity classification up to the maximum statutory tax rates in the applicable jurisdiction(s). The ASU also clarifies that cash paid by an employer when directly withholding shares for tax withholding purposes should be classified as a financing activity. The ASU provides an optional accounting policy election (with limited exceptions), to be applied on an entity-wide basis, to either estimate the number of awards that are expected to vest (consistent with existing U.S. GAAP) or account for forfeitures when they occur.

The amendments are effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted.

As disclosed in Note 9, Common Stock, Mid Penn currently provides share-based stock compensation to employees and directors of the Company and the Bank selected by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, to advance the best interest of Mid Penn and its shareholders. Mid Penn adopted this ASU in the first quarter of 2017 and the adoption had no material impact on Mid Penn’s consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2016-02: The FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases.

The new leases standard applies a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record, for all leases with a lease term of more than 12 months, an asset representing its right to use the underlying asset and a liability to make lease payments. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a practical expedient is available whereby a lessee may elect, by class of underlying asset, not to recognize an ROU asset or lease liability. At inception, lessees must classify all leases as either finance or operating based on five criteria. Balance sheet recognition of finance and operating leases is similar, but the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement, as well as the effect on the statement of cash flows, differs depending on the lease classification.

The new leases standard requires a lessor to classify leases as either sales-type, direct financing or operating, similar to existing U.S. GAAP. Classification depends on the same five criteria used by lessees plus certain additional factors. The subsequent accounting treatment for all three lease types is substantially equivalent to existing U.S. GAAP for sales-type leases, direct financing leases, and operating leases. However, the new standard updates certain aspects of the lessor accounting model to align it with the new lessee accounting model, as well as with the new revenue standard under Topic 606.

Lessees and lessors are required to provide certain qualitative and quantitative disclosures to enable users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The

new leases standard addresses other considerations including identification of a lease, separating lease and non-lease components of a contract, sale and leaseback transactions, modifications, combining contracts, reassessment of the lease term, and remeasurement of lease payments. It also contains comprehensive implementation guidance with practical examples.

The amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. Specific transition requirements apply.

Mid Penn occupies certain offices under non-cancelable operating lease agreements, which currently are not reflected in its consolidated statement of condition. Mid Penn expects to recognize lease liabilities and ROU assets associated with these lease agreements as required by the ASU; however, the extent of the prospective impact on Mid Penn’s consolidated financial statements and the materiality will be dependent upon the extent and type of lease arrangements involving Mid Penn at the time of the adoption of this standard.

ASU 2016-01: The FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.

This ASU requires equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income, excluding equity investments that are consolidated or accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The ASU allows equity investments without readily determinable fair values to be measured at cost minus impairment, with a qualitative assessment required to identify impairment. The ASU also requires public companies to use exit prices to measure the fair value of financial instruments, eliminates the disclosure requirements related to measurement assumptions for the fair value of instruments measured at amortized cost, and requires separate presentation of financial assets and liabilities based on form and measurement category. In addition, for liabilities measured at fair value under the fair value option, the changes in fair value due to changes in instrument-specific credit risk should be recognized in OCI.

This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years.

As of June 30, 2017, Mid Penn held $1,171,000 of equity investments (excluding restricted investments in bank stocks). Mid Penn does not expect to make significant increases in the volume of its equity investments; therefore, the adoption of this ASU is not expected to be material to Mid Penn’s consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2014-09: The FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).

The amendments in this Update establish a comprehensive revenue recognition standard for virtually all industries under U.S. GAAP, including those that previously followed industry-specific guidance such as the real estate, construction and software industries. The revenue standard’s core principle is built on the contract between a vendor and a customer for the provision of goods and services. It attempts to depict the exchange of rights and obligations between the parties in the pattern of revenue recognition based on the consideration to which the vendor is entitled. To accomplish this objective, the standard requires five basic steps: (i) identify the contract with the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date. This ASU defers the effective date of ASU 2014-09 for all entities by one year.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net), as an amendment to ASU 2014-09 to improve Topic 606, by reducing: (i) the potential for diversity in practice arising from

 

F-99


Table of Contents

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

inconsistent and application of the principal versus agent guidance, and (ii) the cost and complexity of applying Topic 606 both at transition and on an ongoing basis.

In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, as an amendment to ASU 2014-09 to improve Topic 606, by reducing: (i) the potential for diversity in practice at initial applications, and (ii) the cost and complexity of applying Topic 606 both at transition and on an ongoing basis.

In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients. The amendments in this ASU do not change the core principles of Topic 606. These amendments affect only the narrow aspects of Topic 606: (i) Collectability Criterion, (ii) Presentation of Sales Taxes and Other Similar Taxes Collected from Customers, (iii) Noncash Consideration, (iv) Contract Modifications at Transition, and (v) Completed Contracts at Transition.

ASU 2014-09, including transition requirements for all amendments, is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted as of the original effective date for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016.

Mid Penn’s implementation efforts include the identification of revenue within the scope of the guidance, particularly in regards to assessing collectability. Mid Penn’s review is ongoing, and it will continue to evaluate any prospective impact as additional guidance is issued and as its internal assessment progresses.

 

(12) Agreement and Plan of Merger

On March 29, 2017, Mid Penn entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with The Scottdale Bank and Trust Company. The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Scottdale will merge with and into Mid Penn Bank, with Mid Penn Bank as the surviving bank (the “Merger”).

If the merger is completed, Scottdale shareholders will have the right to receive for each share of Scottdale common stock they own, at their election, (i) $1,166 in cash or (ii) a fraction of a share (the “exchange ratio”) of Mid Penn common stock determined by dividing (y) $1,166 by (z) the 10 trading day per share volume-weighted average price for Mid Penn common stock ending on the date that is five business days prior to the closing of the merger (the “Average Price”), provided that in no event may the exchange ratio be less than 38.88 or greater than 44.86, respectively. Scottdale shareholders may also elect to receive a combination of cash and Mid Penn common stock. The Merger Agreement provides that not less than 90% of the outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock will be converted into the right to receive shares of Mid Penn common stock and the remainder of the outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock will be converted into the right to receive cash. However, the percentage of Scottdale common stock converted to the right to receive Mid Penn common stock could be adjusted down to 85% in the event that shareholders perfecting their dissenters’ rights reach 15% of the outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock.

Completion of the Merger is subject to a number of customary conditions, including, among others, (i) the approval of the Merger Agreement by the shareholders of both Scottdale and Mid Penn, (ii) the effectiveness of the registration statement to be filed by Mid Penn with the SEC relating to the Mid Penn common stock to be issued in the Merger, (iii) approval of the listing on The Nasdaq Stock Market of the shares of Mid Penn common stock to be issued in the Merger, (iv) the absence of any order or other legal restriction prohibiting the closing of the Merger, (v) receipt of required regulatory approvals without the imposition of any condition or requirement, excluding standard conditions that are normally imposed by the regulatory authorities in bank merger transactions, that would, in the good faith reasonable judgment of the Board of Directors of either Mid Penn or Scottdale, materially and adversely affect the business, operations,

financial condition, property or assets of the combined enterprise or materially impair the value of Scottdale to Mid Penn or the value of Mid Penn to Scottdale, and (vi) Lawrence J Kiefer and Mid Penn Bank entering into a mutually acceptable employment agreement effective as of the closing. Each party’s obligations to complete the Merger is also subject to certain additional customary conditions, including: (a) subject to certain exceptions, the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the other party, (b) performance in all material respects by the other party of its obligations under the Merger Agreement, (c) not more than 15% of the outstanding shares of Scottdale common stock have properly effected their dissenters rights, (d) the absence of any material adverse effect (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement) with respect to the other party, and (e) the receipt by each party of an opinion from its counsel to the effect that the Merger will qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

Board of Directors

The Scottdale Bank and Trust Company

Report on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of The Scottdale Bank and Trust Company which comprise the balance sheet as of December 31, 2016 and 2015; the related statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended; and the related notes to the financial statements.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of The Scottdale Bank and Trust Company as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

THE SCOTTDALE BANK AND TRUST COMPANY

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of significant accounting and reporting policies applied in the presentation of the accompanying financial statements follows:

Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

The Scottdale Bank and Trust Company (the “Bank”) is a full-service commercial banking institution and provides a variety of financial services to individuals and corporate customers through its five offices located in Southwestern Pennsylvania. The Bank’s primary deposit products are noninterest and interest-bearing checking accounts, savings accounts, and certificates of deposit. Its primary lending products are single-family and multi-family residential loans. The Bank is supervised by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities.

Ownership

Lawrence Keister & Co., a Pennsylvania general partnership and related party, owned 25,804 shares, or 50.87 percent, of the Bank’s outstanding stock as of December 31, 2016 and 2015.

Use of Estimates

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the Balance Sheet date and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Therefore, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for losses on loans, defined benefit pension liability, fair value of financial instruments, valuation of deferred tax assets, other-than-temporary impairment of securities, and the valuation of real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in satisfaction of loans.

Investment Securities

All investments in debt and equity securities are to be classified into three categories. Securities which management has the positive intent and ability to hold until maturity are classified as held to maturity. Held-to-maturity securities are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, computed on a level-yield basis. Securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading securities. All other securities are classified as available-for-sale securities. Unrealized holding gains and losses for trading securities are included in earnings. Unrealized holding gains and losses for available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported as net of income taxes as a separate component of stockholders’ equity until realized. At this time, management has no intention of establishing a trading securities classification.

Interest and dividends on securities are reported as interest income. Gains and losses realized on sales of securities represent the differences between net proceeds and carrying values determined by the specific identification method.

Securities are evaluated on a periodic basis and determine whether a decline in their value is other than temporary. For debt securities, management considers whether the present value of cash flow expected to be collected is less than the security’s amortized cost basis (the difference defined as the credit loss), the

 

F-108


Table of Contents
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Investment Securities (Continued)

 

magnitude and duration of the decline, the reasons underlying the decline, and the Bank’s intent to sell the security or whether it is more likely than not that the Bank would be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery in fair value, to determine whether the loss in value is other than temporary. Once a decline in fair value is determined to be other than temporary, if the investor does not intend to sell the security, and it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell the security, before recovery of the security’s amortized cost basis, the charge to earnings is limited to the amount of credit loss. Any remaining difference between fair value and amortized cost (the difference defined as the non-credit portion) is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes. Otherwise, the entire difference between fair value and amortized cost is charged to earnings.

Regulating Bank Stock

Common stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and Atlantic Community Bancshares, Inc represents ownership in institutions which are wholly owned by other financial institutions. These equity securities are accounted for at cost and are classified as regulatory bank stock on the Balance Sheet.

The Bank is a member of the FHLB of Pittsburgh and, as such, is required to maintain a minimum investment in stock of the FHLB that varies with the level of advances outstanding with the FHLB. The stock is bought from and sold to the FHLB based upon its $100 par value. The stock does not have a readily determinable fair value and, as such, is classified as restricted stock, carried at cost, and evaluated for impairment as needed. The stock’s value is determined by the ultimate recoverability of the par value rather than by recognizing temporary declines. The determination of whether the par value will ultimately be recovered is influenced by criteria such as the following: (a) the significance of the decline in net assets of the FHLB as compared with the capital stock amount and the length of time this situation has persisted, (b) commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance, (c) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on the customer base of the FHLB, and (d) the liquidity position of the FHLB. There was no impairment of the FHLB stock as of December 31, 2016 or 2015.

Loans

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff generally are stated at their outstanding unpaid principal balances, net of any deferred fees or costs on originated loans. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance.

The accrual of interest is discontinued when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due, unless the credit is well secured and in the process of collection or management has serious doubts about further collectability of principal or interest, even though the loan is currently performing. Interest received on nonaccrual loans generally is either applied against principal or reported as interest income, according to management’s judgment as to the collectability of principal. Generally, loans are restored to accrual status when the obligation is brought current, has performed in accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable period of time, and the ultimate collectability of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in doubt.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is established through provisions for loan losses charged against income. Loans deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for loan losses, and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

 

F-109


Table of Contents
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Allowance for Loan Losses  (Continued)

 

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered adequate to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio. Management’s periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based on the Bank’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, current economic conditions, and other relevant factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective, since it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant change, including the amounts and timing of future cash flows expected to be received on impaired loans and leases.

Supplementary Cash Flow Information

For purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows, the Bank considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Therefore, all cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits in banks, and federal funds sold are classified as cash equivalents for purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows. Federal funds are purchased or sold for one-day periods. Cash payments for interest were $520,126 and $688,010 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. There were no income tax payments in 2016 and 2015.

Advertising

The Bank expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense was $54,355 and $65,893 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, which is included in other expense on the Statements of Income.

Premises and Equipment

Land is carried at cost. Premises and equipment, which include leasehold improvements, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which consist of 3 to 20 years for furniture, fixtures, and equipment and 3 to 40 years for office buildings and improvements. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the remaining terms of the related leases or the estimated useful lives of the assets. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged against income as incurred. Costs of major additions and improvements are capitalized.

Other Real Estate Owned (“OREO”)

Real estate acquired in satisfaction of a loan is reported in other real estate owned on the Balance Sheet.

Properties acquired by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure are transferred to OREO and recorded at fair value less estimated costs to sell. Initial write-downs recorded when properties are transferred to OREO are recorded as reductions of the allowance for loan losses. Costs to maintain the assets, subsequent write-downs to reflect declines in the fair value of the property, and subsequent gains and losses attributable to their disposal are included in other income and expenses.

Trust Department

Assets held by the Bank in fiduciary or agency capacities for its customers are not included in the accompanying Balance Sheets since such items are not assets of the Bank. In accordance with industry practice, fees are recorded on a cash basis and approximate the fees which would have been recognized on the accrual basis.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Income Taxes

The Bank uses an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share are calculated on the basis of the weighted-average number of shares outstanding. The weighted-average number of shares outstanding was 50,718 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.

Reclassification of Comparative Amounts

Certain comparative amounts for the prior year have been reclassified to conform to current-year classifications. Such classifications had no effect on net income or stockholders’ equity.

Comprehensive Income

The Bank is required to present comprehensive income in a full set of general-purpose financial statements for all periods presented. Other comprehensive income comprises unrealized gains and losses on the available-for-sale securities portfolio and the change in the unrecognized pension cost.

The Bank reviews its position quarterly and asserts that at December 31, 2016, the declines outlined in the previous table represent temporary declines and the Bank does not intend to sell and does not believe it will be required to sell these securities before recovery of their cost basis, which may be at maturity. At December 31, 2016, the Bank had 202 investment securities that were in an unrealized loss position.

For debt securities that are not deemed to be credit impaired, management performs additional analysis to assess whether it intends to sell or would more likely than not be required to sell the investment before the expected recovery of the amortized cost basis. Management has asserted that is has no intent to sell and that it believes it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell the investment before recovery of its amortized cost basis. Similarly, for equity securities, management considers the various factors described above, including its intent and ability to hold the equity security for a period of time sufficient for recovery to amortized cost. Where management lacks that intent or ability, the security’s decline in fair value is deemed to be other than temporary and is recorded in earnings.

For debt securities, a critical component of the evaluation for other-than-temporary impairment is the identification of credit impaired securities where management does not expect to receive cash flows sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security. Where management deems the security to be other-than-temporarily impaired based upon the above factors and the duration and extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the inability to forecast a recovery in fair value, and other factors concerning the issuers in the pooled security, the decline is recorded in earnings.

The Bank has concluded that the unrealized losses disclosed above are not other than temporary but are the result of interest rate changes, sector credit ratings changes, or Bank-specific ratings changes that are not expected to result in the non-collection of principal and interest during the period.

The amortized cost and fair value of debt securities by contractual maturity at December 31, 2016, are shown below. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

There were no sales of investment securities during the years ended December 31, 2016 or 2015. The Bank recorded gross gains from investment calls and proceeds received on securities for which it had previously recorded other-than-temporary impairment charges of $84,231 and $196,903 at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Investment securities with a carrying value of $10,765,582 and $9,504,383 at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, were pledged for fiduciary powers, to secure public deposits and for other purposes as provided by law.

 

3. LOANS

The Bank grants mortgage, commercial, and installment loans, which are the primary loan portfolio segments to customers. A substantial portion of the loan portfolio is represented by mortgage loans throughout Southwestern Pennsylvania. The ability of the Bank’s debtors to honor their contracts is dependent upon the real estate and general economic conditions in this area.

Major classifications of loans are summarized as follows as of December 31:

 

     2016      2015  

Real estate:

     

Residential

   $ 31,640,599      $ 30,955,094

4. ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The allowance consists of specific, general, and unallocated components. The specific component relates to loans that are evaluated solely based on delinquency and assessed a specific reserve by management. For such loans that are also classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value, if the loan is considered to be collateral-dependent) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying amount of that loan. The general component covers current loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors. In reviewing risk within the Bank’s loan portfolio, management has determined there to be several different risk categories within the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses consists of amounts applicable to: (i) the residential real estate portfolio; (ii) the commercial real estate portfolio; (iii) the commercial portfolio; (iv) the installment portfolio; and (v) the unallocated portion. An unallocated component is maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses. The unallocated component of the allowance reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the portfolio.

During 2016, the activity in the allowance as noted below corresponds with the increases and decreases in each respective portfolio. There were no changes in qualitative or historical loss factors during the year.

Impaired Loans

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for commercial and construction loans by either their present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loans effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral-dependent.

Large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Bank does not separately identify individual consumer and residential loans for impairment disclosures, unless such loans are the subject of a restructuring agreement.

Information with respect to impaired loans as of and for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, is as follows:

Troubled Debt Restructuring (“TDR”)

Consistent with accounting and regulatory guidance, the Bank recognizes a TDR when the Bank, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that would not normally be considered. Regardless of the form of concession granted, the Bank’s objective in offering a TDR is to increase the probability of repayment of the borrower’s loan.

To be considered a TDR, both of the following criteria must be met:

 

    The borrower must be experiencing financial difficulties; and

 

    The Bank, for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that would not otherwise be considered.

The Bank did not have any TDRs in 2016 or 2015 nor did it have any TDRs within the last year where a concession had been made that then defaulted in 2016 or 2015.

At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the aggregate of all time deposit accounts with a minimum denomination in greater than or equal to the federally insured limit of $250,000 or more amounted to $2,465,000 and $2,465,000, respectively.

 

7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In the normal course of business, there are various outstanding commitments to extend credit that are not reflected in the accompanying Balance Sheet and represent financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Balance Sheet. The same credit policies are used in making commitments and conditional obligations as for on-balance sheet instruments. Generally, collateral is required to support financial instruments with credit risk.

The off-balance sheet commitments consisted of commitments to extend credit totaling approximately $8,135,337 and $2,873,427 at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, off-balance sheet commitments also included standby letters of credit totaling $82,303 and $82,303, respectively.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the loan agreement. These commitments consist primarily of mortgage loan originations, credit cards, and lines of credit.

The exposure to loss under these commitments is limited by subjecting them to credit approval and monitoring procedures. Substantially all commitments to extend credit are contingent upon customers maintaining specific credit standards at the time of the loan funding. Management assesses the credit risk associated with certain commitments to extend credit in determining the level of the allowance for loan losses.

Included in the table above is a deferred tax asset related to charitable contributions made by the Bank in prior years that began to expire during 2012 as the Bank was unable to generate sufficient taxable income to deduct the contributions. The charitable contribution amounts of $386,052 and $251,295 expired during 2016 and 2015, respectively. As such, management has established a valuation allowance against this deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, in the amount of $802,893 and $766,318, respectively.

The Bank also has a net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforward that will begin to expire in 2030 of which a valuation allowance against this deferred tax asset was established in the amount of $1,074,917 and $647,778 as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The alternative minimum tax (“AMT”) credits have an indefinite carryforward period.

U.S. generally accepted accounting principles prescribe a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Benefits from tax positions should be recognized in the financial statements only when it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority that would have full knowledge of all relevant information. A tax position that meets the more-likely-

 

F-120


Table of Contents
8. INCOME TAXES (Continued)

 

than-not recognition threshold is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be derecognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no longer met.

There is currently no liability for uncertain tax positions and no known unrecognized tax benefits. The Bank recognizes, when applicable, interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes in the Statements of Income. The Bank’s federal and PA shares tax returns for taxable years through 2013 have been closed for purposes of examination by the Internal Revenue Service and the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue.

The Plan’s funds are managed and held in trust by the Bank’s Trust Division. The investment objective and strategy for investing Plan assets call for a “Moderate Growth Income Objective.” This objective provides for a preservation of the principal’s purchasing power and moderate income. The investment policies of the Plan trustees prohibit the use of derivatives. In addition, the Plan’s assets are diversified appropriately across different sections.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value. There have been no changes in the methodologies used at December 31, 2016.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Valued at carrying amount, which approximates fair value.

Common Stocks

Valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded.

The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Plan believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.

Cash Flows

The Bank expects to contribute $450,000 to the Plan in 2017. Also, the actuarial net loss that will be amortized as a component of net periodic benefit cost in 2017 is $206,123.

Expected benefit payments for the next ten years:

   $ 3,809,197  
  

 

 

 

401(k) Plan

The Bank has a 401(k) plan that covers substantially all employees. The plan provides for employer-matching contributions of 25 percent of employee contributions. The Bank paid required employer-matching contributions of $49,314 and $39,983 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

11. REGULATORY MATTERS

Cash Requirements

The Federal Reserve Bank requires the Bank to maintain certain average reserve balances. The balance of these reserves, which is included in cash and due from banks on the Balance Sheet, is a required reserve as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, of $1,289,000 and $1,163,000, respectively.

Loans

The Bank does not have outstanding borrowings with any institution as of December 31, 2016 or 2015. Sources of credit used by the Bank throughout the year for operational purposes are the Federal Reserve Bank discount window borrowings and funds available through credit line arrangements with the FHLB. An FHLB line of credit of $10,000,000 is available to the Bank and is subject to annual renewal. This line of credit is secured by a blanket security agreement on qualifying residential mortgages and the Bank’s investment in FHLB stock. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Bank did not have a maximum borrowing capacity established with the FHLB.

Dividends

The Bank is subject to legal limitations on the amount of dividends that can be paid to the stockholders. The Pennsylvania Banking Code restricts the payment of dividends, generally to the extent of its retained earnings.

Capital Requirements

Federal regulations require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts of capital. Specifically, the Bank is required to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total common equity Tier 1, and Tier 1 capital to

Capital Requirements (Continued)

 

risk-weighted assets and of Tier 1 capital to average total assets. Management believes, as of December 31, 2016, that the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Bank was considered to be well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be classified as a well-capitalized financial institution, as of December 31, 2016, total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, common equity Tier 1 capital, and Tier 1 leverage capital ratios must be at least 10 percent, 8 percent, 6.5 percent, and 5 percent, respectively.

The following table sets forth the Bank’s capital position and minimum requirements as of December 31, 2016 and 2015.

12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The following disclosures show the hierarchal disclosure framework associated with the level of pricing observations utilized in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. The three broad levels defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles are as follows:

 

  Level I: Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date.

 

  Level II: Pricing inputs are other than the quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The nature of these assets and liabilities includes items for which quoted prices are available but traded less frequently and items that are fair-valued using other financial instruments, the parameters of which can be directly observed.

 

  Level III: Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available.

Securities

Fair values for securities available for sale are determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges or matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique which is widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark-quoted securities.

Accrued interest payable

    7,717       7,717       7,717       —         —    

Financial instruments are defined as cash, evidence of an ownership interest in an entity, or a contract which creates an obligation or right to receive or deliver cash or another financial instrument from/to a second entity on potentially favorable or unfavorable terms.

Fair value is defined as the amount at which a financial instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties other than in a forced or liquidation sale. If a quoted market price is available for a financial instrument, the estimated fair value would be calculated based upon the market price per trading unit of the instrument.

If no readily available market exists, the fair value estimates for financial instruments should be based upon management’s judgment regarding current economic conditions, interest rate risk, expected cash flows, future estimated losses, and other factors as determined through various option pricing formulas or simulation modeling. Since many of these assumptions result from judgments made by management based upon estimates which are inherently uncertain, the resulting estimated fair values may not be indicative of the amount realizable in the sale of a particular financial instrument. In addition, changes in the assumptions on which the estimated fair values are based may have a significant impact on the resulting estimated fair values.

Since certain assets, such as deferred tax assets and premises and equipment, are not considered financial instruments, the estimated fair value of financial instruments would not represent the full value of the Bank.

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Accrued Interest Receivable, and Accrued Interest Payable

The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of the fair value.

Investment Securities

The fair value of investment securities is equal to the available quoted market price. If no quoted market price is available, fair value is estimated using the quoted market price for similar securities.

The Bank utilizes a third-party source to determine the fair value of its fixed income securities. The methodology consists of pricing models based on asset class and includes available trade, bid, other market information, broker quotes, proprietary models, various databases, and trading desk quotes.

 

F-128


Table of Contents
13. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)

 

Net Loans

The fair value is estimated by discounting future cash flows using current market inputs at which loans with similar terms and qualities would be made to borrowers of similar credit quality. Where quoted market prices were available, primarily for certain residential mortgage loans, such market rates were utilized as estimates for fair value.

Regulatory Bank Stock

The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value because it is a restricted investment and its value is determined by the ultimate recoverability of the par value.

Deposits

The fair values of certificates of deposit are based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rates are estimated using rates currently offered for similar instruments with similar remaining maturities. Demand, savings, and money market deposit accounts are valued at the amount payable on demand as of year-end.

Off-Balance Sheet Commitments

The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

 

14. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On March 29, 2017, the Bank executed a definitive agreement with Mid-Penn Bancorp, Inc., in which Mid-Penn Bancorp, Inc. will merge with the Bank. Mid-Penn Bancorp, Inc. will purchase the stock of the Bank at which point the Bank will merge into Mid-Penn Bancorp, Inc. The Bank will then operate as Scottdale Bank and Trust, a division of Mid Penn Bank. The merger is subject to the approval of regulatory authorities and the affirmative vote of the shareholders of the Bank. The merger is expected to close in the third quarter of 2017.

The Bank has reviewed events occurring through June 15, 2017, the date the financial statements were issued. Except for the merger agreement referred to, no other subsequent events have occurred requiring accrual or disclosure.

Notes to (Unaudited) Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

A summary of significant accounting and reporting policies applied in the presentation of the accompanying financial statements follows:

Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

The Scottdale Bank and Trust Company (the “Bank”) is a full-service commercial banking institution and provides a variety of financial services to individuals and corporate customers through its five offices located in Southwestern Pennsylvania. The Bank’s primary deposit products are noninterest and interest-bearing checking accounts, savings accounts, and certificates of deposit. Its primary lending products are single-family and multi-family residential loans. The Bank is supervised by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities.

Ownership

Lawrence Keister & Co., a Pennsylvania general partnership and related party, owned 25,804 shares, or 50.87 percent, of the Bank’s outstanding stock as of June 30, 2017.

Use of Estimates

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the Balance Sheet date and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Therefore, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for losses on loans, defined benefit pension liability, fair value of financial instruments, valuation of deferred tax assets, other-than-temporary impairment of securities, and the valuation of real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in satisfaction of loans.

Investment Securities

All investments in debt and equity securities are to be classified into three categories. Securities which management has the positive intent and ability to hold until maturity are classified as held to maturity. Held-to-maturity securities are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, computed on a level-yield basis. Securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading securities. All other securities are classified as available-for-sale securities. Unrealized holding gains and losses for trading securities are included in earnings. Unrealized holding gains and losses for available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported as net of income taxes as a separate component of stockholders’ equity until realized. At this time, management has no intention of establishing a trading securities classification.

Interest and dividends on securities are reported as interest income. Gains and losses realized on sales of securities represent the differences between net proceeds and carrying values determined by the specific identification method.

Securities are evaluated on a periodic basis and determine whether a decline in their value is other than temporary. For debt securities, management considers whether the present value of cash flow expected to be

 

F-135


Table of Contents

collected is less than the security’s amortized cost basis (the difference defined as the credit loss), the magnitude and duration of the decline, the reasons underlying the decline, and the Bank’s intent to sell the security or whether it is more likely than not that the Bank would be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery in fair value, to determine whether the loss in value is other than temporary. Once a decline in fair value is determined to be other than temporary, if the investor does not intend to sell the security, and it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell the security, before recovery of the security’s amortized cost basis, the charge to earnings is limited to the amount of credit loss. Any remaining difference between fair value and amortized cost (the difference defined as the non-credit portion) is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes. Otherwise, the entire difference between fair value and amortized cost is charged to earnings.

Regulating Bank Stock

Common stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and Atlantic Community Bancshares, Inc. represents ownership in institutions which are wholly owned by other financial institutions. These equity securities are accounted for at cost and are classified as regulatory bank stock on the Balance Sheet.

The Bank is a member of the FHLB of Pittsburgh and, as such, is required to maintain a minimum investment in stock of the FHLB that varies with the level of advances outstanding with the FHLB. The stock is bought from and sold to the FHLB based upon its $100 par value. The stock does not have a readily determinable fair value and, as such, is classified as restricted stock, carried at cost, and evaluated for impairment as needed. The stock’s value is determined by the ultimate recoverability of the par value rather than by recognizing temporary declines. The determination of whether the par value will ultimately be recovered is influenced by criteria such as the following: (a) the significance of the decline in net assets of the FHLB as compared with the capital stock amount and the length of time this situation has persisted, (b) commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance, (c) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on the customer base of the FHLB, and (d) the liquidity position of the FHLB. There was no impairment of the FHLB stock as of June 30, 2017.

Loans

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff generally are stated at their outstanding unpaid principal balances, net of any deferred fees or costs on originated loans. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance.

The accrual of interest is discontinued when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due, unless the credit is well secured and in the process of collection or management has serious doubts about further collectability of principal or interest, even though the loan is currently performing. Interest received on nonaccrual loans generally is either applied against principal or reported as interest income, according to management’s judgment as to the collectability of principal. Generally, loans are restored to accrual status when the obligation is brought current, has performed in accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable period of time, and the ultimate collectability of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in doubt.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is established through provisions for loan losses charged against income. Loans deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for loan losses, and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered adequate to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio. Management’s periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based on the Bank’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, current economic conditions, and other relevant

 

F-136


Table of Contents

factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective, since it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant change, including the amounts and timing of future cash flows expected to be received on impaired loans and leases.

Advertising

The Bank expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense was $25,000 and $29,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and is included in other expense on the Statements of Income.

Premises and Equipment

Land is carried at cost. Premises and equipment, which include leasehold improvements, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which consist of 3 to 20 years for furniture, fixtures, and equipment and 3 to 40 years for office buildings and improvements. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the remaining terms of the related leases or the estimated useful lives of the assets. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged against income as incurred. Costs of major additions and improvements are capitalized.

Other Real Estate Owned (“OREO”)

Real estate acquired in satisfaction of a loan is reported in other real estate owned on the Balance Sheet.

Properties acquired by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure are transferred to OREO and recorded at fair value less estimated costs to sell. Initial write-downs recorded when properties are transferred to OREO are recorded as reductions of the allowance for loan losses. Costs to maintain the assets, subsequent write-downs to reflect declines in the fair value of the property, and subsequent gains and losses attributable to their disposal are included in other income and expenses.

Trust Department

Assets held by the Bank in fiduciary or agency capacities for its customers are not included in the accompanying Balance Sheets since such items are not assets of the Bank. In accordance with industry practice, fees are recorded on a cash basis and approximate the fees which would have been recognized on the accrual basis.

Income Taxes

The Bank uses an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share are calculated on the basis of the weighted-average number of shares outstanding. The weighted-average number of shares outstanding was 50,718 for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Reclassification of Comparative Amounts

Certain comparative amounts for the prior period may have been reclassified to conform to current-year classifications. Such classifications had no effect on net income or stockholders’ equity.

Comprehensive Income

The Bank is required to present comprehensive income in a full set of general-purpose financial statements for all periods presented. Other comprehensive income comprises unrealized gains and losses on the available-for-sale securities portfolio and the change in the unrecognized pension cost.

The Bank reviews its position quarterly and asserts that at June 30, 2017, the declines outlined in the previous tables represent temporary declines and the Bank does not intend to sell and does not believe it will be required to sell these securities before recovery of their cost basis, which may be at maturity. At June 30, 2017, the Bank had 131 investment securities that were in an unrealized loss position.

For debt securities that are not deemed to be credit impaired, management performs additional analysis to assess whether it intends to sell or would more likely than not be required to sell the investment before the expected recovery of the amortized cost basis. Management has asserted that is has no intent to sell and that it believes it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell the investment before recovery of its amortized cost basis. Similarly, for equity securities, management considers the various factors described above, including its intent and ability to hold the equity security for a period of time sufficient for recovery to amortized cost. Where management lacks that intent or ability, the security’s decline in fair value is deemed to be other than temporary and is recorded in earnings.

For debt securities, a critical component of the evaluation for other-than-temporary impairment is the identification of credit impaired securities where management does not expect to receive cash flows sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security. Where management deems the security to be other-than-temporarily impaired based upon the above factors and the duration and extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the inability to forecast a recovery in fair value, and other factors concerning the issuers in the pooled security, the decline is recorded in earnings.

The Bank has concluded that the unrealized losses disclosed above are not other than temporary but are the result of interest rate changes, sector credit ratings changes, or Bank-specific ratings changes that are not expected to result in the non-collection of principal and interest during the period.

The amortized cost and fair value of debt securities at June 30, 2017 (unaudited), by contractual maturity, are shown below. Expected maturities for mortgage-backed securities will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without prepayment penalties.

There were no sales of investment securities during the six months ended June 30, 2017 or 2016. Scottdale recorded gross securities gains of $86,000 and $17,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, with such gains resulting from investment calls and proceeds received on securities for which Scottdale, in previous years, had recorded other-than-temporary impairment charges.

Investment securities with a carrying value of $10,753,000 and $10,766,000 at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, were pledged for fiduciary powers, to secure public deposits and for other purposes as provided by law.

Note 3. Loans

The Bank grants mortgage, commercial, and installment loans, which are the primary loan portfolio segments to customers. A substantial portion of the loan portfolio is represented by mortgage loans throughout Southwestern Pennsylvania. The ability of the Bank’s debtors to honor their contracts is dependent upon the real estate and general economic conditions in this area.

Major classifications of loans are summarized as follows as of June 30, 2017 and December 31 2016:

Note 4. Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance consists of specific, general, and unallocated components. The specific component relates to loans that are evaluated solely based on delinquency and assessed a specific reserve by management. For such loans that are also classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value, if the loan is considered to be collateral-dependent) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying amount of that loan. The general component covers current loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors. In reviewing risk within the Bank’s loan portfolio, management has determined there to be several different risk categories within the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses consists of amounts applicable to: (i) the residential real estate portfolio; (ii) the commercial real estate portfolio; (iii) the commercial portfolio; (iv) the installment portfolio; and (v) the unallocated portion. An unallocated component is maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses. The unallocated component of the allowance reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the portfolio.

During 2016, the activity in the allowance as noted below corresponds with the increases and decreases in each respective portfolio. There were no changes in qualitative or historical loss factors during the year.

Changes in the allowance for loan losses by portfolio segment for the periods ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016 are as follows:

Impaired Loans

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status,

 

F-141


Table of Contents

collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for commercial and construction loans by either their present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loans effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral-dependent.

Large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Bank does not separately identify individual consumer and residential loans for impairment disclosures, unless such loans are the subject of a restructuring agreement.

Information with respect to impaired loans as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the twelve months ended December 31, 2016, is as follows:

Troubled Debt Restructuring (“TDR”)

Consistent with accounting and regulatory guidance, the Bank recognizes a TDR when the Bank, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that would not normally be considered. Regardless of the form of concession granted, the Bank’s objective in offering a TDR is to increase the probability of repayment of the borrower’s loan.

To be considered a TDR, both of the following criteria must be met:

 

    The borrower must be experiencing financial difficulties; and

 

    The Bank, for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that would not otherwise be considered.

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Bank did not have any TDRs, nor did it have any TDRs within the last year where a concession had been made that then defaulted.

Note 5. Premises and Equipment

Note 7. Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, there are various outstanding commitments to extend credit that are not reflected in the accompanying Balance Sheet and represent financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Balance Sheet. The same credit policies are used in making commitments and conditional obligations as for on-balance sheet instruments. Generally, collateral is required to support financial instruments with credit risk.

The off-balance sheet commitments consisted of commitments to extend credit of approximately $20,608,000 and standby letters of credit totaling $82,000 as of June 30, 2017.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the loan agreement. These commitments consist primarily of mortgage loan originations, credit cards, and lines of credit.

The exposure to loss under these commitments is limited by subjecting them to credit approval and monitoring procedures. Substantially all commitments to extend credit are contingent upon customers maintaining specific credit standards at the time of the loan funding. Management assesses the credit risk associated with certain commitments to extend credit in determining the level of the allowance for loan losses.

The provision for income taxes consists of the following:

Included in the table above is a deferred tax asset related to charitable contributions made by the Bank in prior years that began to expire during 2012 as the Bank was unable to generate sufficient taxable income to deduct the contributions, and will fully expire in 2021. As such, management has established a valuation allowance against this deferred tax asset as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, in the amount of $803,000.

The Bank also has a net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforward that will begin to expire in 2030, and will fully expire in 2036, of which a valuation allowance against this deferred tax asset was established in the amount of $1,075,000 as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. The alternative minimum tax (“AMT”) credits have an indefinite carryforward period.

For purposes of consistent presentation, and given the large valuation allowance, the deferred tax amount is included in other assets on the balance sheet.

U.S. generally accepted accounting principles prescribe a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Benefits from tax positions should be recognized in the financial statements only when it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority that would have full knowledge of all relevant information. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be derecognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no longer met.

There is currently no liability for uncertain tax positions and no known unrecognized tax benefits. The Bank recognizes, when applicable, interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes in the Statements of Income. The Bank’s federal and PA shares tax returns for taxable years through 2013 have been closed for purposes of examination by the Internal Revenue Service and the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue.

Note 10. Employee Benefits

Defined Benefit Plan

The Bank offers a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan (the “Plan”) covering all eligible employees. The Bank’s policy is to fund pension benefits as accrued. The Plan’s assets are primarily invested in corporate equity securities; the valuations of which are subject to market fluctuations.

The Plan’s funds are managed and held in trust by the Bank’s Trust Division. The investment objective and strategy for investing Plan assets call for a “Moderate Growth Income Objective.” This objective provides for a preservation of the principal’s purchasing power and moderate income. The investment policies of the Plan trustees prohibit the use of derivatives. In addition, the Plan’s assets are diversified appropriately across different sections.

Note 11. Regulatory Matters

Cash Requirements

The Federal Reserve Bank requires the Bank to maintain certain average reserve balances. The balance of these reserves is included in cash and due from banks on the Balance Sheet.

Loans

The Bank does not have outstanding borrowings with any institution as of June 30, 2017. Sources of credit used by the Bank throughout the year for operational purposes are the Federal Reserve Bank discount window borrowings and funds available through credit line arrangements with the FHLB. An FHLB line of credit of $10,000,000 is available to the Bank and is subject to annual renewal. This line of credit is secured by a blanket security agreement on qualifying residential mortgages and the Bank’s investment in FHLB stock. At June 30, 2017, the Bank did not have a maximum borrowing capacity established with the FHLB.

Dividends

The Bank is subject to legal limitations on the amount of dividends that can be paid to the stockholders. The Pennsylvania Banking Code restricts the payment of dividends, generally to the extent of its retained earnings.

Capital Requirements

Federal regulations require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts of capital. Specifically, the Bank is required to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total common equity Tier 1, and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted

As of June 30, 2017, the Bank was considered to be well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be classified as a well-capitalized financial institution, as of June 30, 2017, total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, common equity Tier 1 capital, and Tier 1 leverage capital ratios must be at least 10 percent, 8 percent, 6.5 percent, and 5 percent, respectively.

Note 12. Fair Value Measurements

The following disclosures show the hierarchal disclosure framework associated with the level of pricing observations utilized in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. The three broad levels defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles are as follows:

 

Level I: Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date.

 

Level II: Pricing inputs are other than the quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The nature of these assets and liabilities includes items for which quoted prices are available but traded less frequently and items that are fair-valued using other financial instruments, the parameters of which can be directly observed.

 

Level III: Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available.

Securities

Fair values for securities available for sale are determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges or matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique which is widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark-quoted securities.

Financial instruments are defined as cash, evidence of an ownership interest in an entity, or a contract which creates an obligation or right to receive or deliver cash or another financial instrument from/to a second entity on potentially favorable or unfavorable terms.

Fair value is defined as the amount at which a financial instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties other than in a forced or liquidation sale. If a quoted market price is available for a financial instrument, the estimated fair value would be calculated based upon the market price per trading unit of the instrument.

If no readily available market exists, the fair value estimates for financial instruments should be based upon management’s judgment regarding current economic conditions, interest rate risk, expected cash flows, future estimated losses, and other factors as determined through various option pricing formulas or simulation modeling. Since many of these assumptions result from judgments made by management based upon estimates which are inherently uncertain, the resulting estimated fair values may not be indicative of the amount realizable in the sale of a particular financial instrument. In addition, changes in the assumptions on which the estimated fair values are based may have a significant impact on the resulting estimated fair values.

Since certain assets, such as deferred tax assets and premises and equipment, are not considered financial instruments, the estimated fair value of financial instruments would not represent the full value of the Bank.

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Accrued Interest Receivable, and Accrued Interest Payable

The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of the fair value.

Investment Securities

The fair value of investment securities is equal to the available quoted market price. If no quoted market price is available, fair value is estimated using the quoted market price for similar securities.

The Bank utilizes a third-party source to determine the fair value of its fixed income securities. The methodology consists of pricing models based on asset class and includes available trade, bid, other market information, broker quotes, proprietary models, various databases, and trading desk quotes.

Net Loans

The fair value is estimated by discounting future cash flows using current market inputs at which loans with similar terms and qualities would be made to borrowers of similar credit quality. Where quoted market prices were available, primarily for certain residential mortgage loans, such market rates were utilized as estimates for fair value.

 

F-151


Table of Contents

Regulatory Bank Stock

The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value because it is a restricted investment and its value is determined by the ultimate recoverability of the par value.

Deposits

The fair values of certificates of deposit are based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rates are estimated using rates currently offered for similar instruments with similar remaining maturities. Demand, savings, and money market deposit accounts are valued at the amount payable on demand as of year-end.

Off-Balance Sheet Commitments

The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

(a) Each share of Mid Penn Bank Common Stock that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain issued and outstanding following the Effective Time and shall be unchanged by the Merger.

 

A-10


Table of Contents

(b) All shares of Scottdale Common Stock held in the treasury of Scottdale (“Treasury Stock”) and each share of Scottdale Common Stock owned by Mid Penn immediately prior to the Effective Time (if any) (other than shares held in a fiduciary capacity or in connection with debts previously contracted) (“Mid Penn Owned Shares”) shall, at the Effective Time, cease to exist, and the certificates for such shares shall be canceled as promptly as practicable thereafter, and no payment or distribution shall be made in consideration therefor.

(c) Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, automatically by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any Person, each share of Scottdale Common Stock (excluding Treasury Stock, Mid Penn Owned Shares and shares of Scottdale Common Stock that are owned by Scottdale shareholders properly exercising their dissenters rights pursuant to Section 1222 of the PBC (“Dissenter Shares”)) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted at the election of the holder thereof (in accordance with the election and allocation procedures set forth in Section 3.2) into the Merger Consideration.

(d) Each holder of Scottdale Common Stock who owns a Cash Election Share (that is not reallocated as a Common Stock Election Share pursuant to Section 3.2(e)(i)(B)) will receive in the Merger cash equal to $1,166 in exchange for each such share (the “Per Share Cash Consideration”). The number of Cash Election Shares plus the number of Dissenter Shares shall, in the aggregate, not exceed 10% of the shares of Scottdale Common Stock outstanding as of the Effective Time, subject to adjustment pursuant to this Section 3.1. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Aggregate Cash Consideration” shall be an amount up to $5,913,719 (subject to adjustment pursuant to this Section 3.1), which assumes that each Dissenter Share shall receive the Per Share Cash Consideration.

(e) Each holder of Scottdale Common Stock who owns a Common Stock Election Share will receive in the Merger that number of shares of Mid Penn Common Stock equal to the Exchange Ratio in exchange for each such share (the “Per Share Common Stock Consideration”). The number of Common Stock Election Shares shall equal not less than 90% of the shares of Scottdale Common Stock outstanding as of the Effective Time, subject to adjustment pursuant to this Section 3.1.

The “Exchange Ratio” will be equal to $ 1,166 divided by the Average Price; provided, however, that in no event may the Exchange Ratio be less than 38.88 or greater than 44.86. If the Exchange Ratio would otherwise be less than 38.88 or more than 44.86, then 38.88 or 44.86, respectively, shall be used. The Exchange Ratio will be rounded down to the nearest one-hundredth.

The “Aggregate Common Stock Consideration” is that number of shares of Mid Penn Common Stock equal to the Exchange Ratio multiplied by the Common Stock Election Shares, which shall not be less than 90% of the total number of shares of Scottdale Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, subject to adjustment pursuant to this Section 3.1 and provided that in no case will the Aggregate Common Stock Consideration be less than 1,774,724 shares of Mid Penn Common Stock or more than 2,275,209 shares of Mid Penn Common Stock.

The Per Share Cash Consideration and the Per Share Common Stock Consideration are sometimes referred to herein collectively as the “Merger Consideration.”

The Aggregate Cash Consideration together with the Aggregate Common Stock Consideration is sometimes referred to herein as the “Aggregate Consideration.” The Aggregate Consideration shall comprise the total consideration to be paid in the Merger.

(f) After the Effective Time, shares of Scottdale Common Stock shall be no longer outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and shall represent thereafter by operation of this section only the right to receive the Merger Consideration as set forth in this Article and any Dissenter Shares shall thereafter represent only the right to receive applicable payments as set forth in Section 3.3.

(g) In the event Mid Penn changes the number of shares of Mid Penn Common Stock issued and outstanding between the date hereof and the Effective Time as a result of a stock split, stock dividend, extraordinary dividend, recapitalization, reclassification, split up, combination, exchange of shares, readjustment or similar transaction and the record date therefor shall be prior to the Effective Time, the Exchange Ratio shall be proportionately adjusted. In addition, in the event Mid Penn enters into an agreement pursuant to which shares of Mid Penn Common Stock would be converted into shares or other securities or obligations of another corporation, proper provision shall be made in such agreement so that each holder of Scottdale Common Stock entitled to receive shares of Mid Penn Common Stock in the Merger shall be entitled to receive such number of shares or other securities or amount or obligations of such other corporation as such shareholder would be entitled to receive if the Effective Time had occurred immediately prior to the happening of such event.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that the number of Dissenter Shares shall, in the aggregate, exceed 10%, but be less than 15%, of the shares of Scottdale Common Stock outstanding as of the Effective Time, then (i) the amount of the Aggregate Cash Consideration shall proportionately increase by such excess but shall not exceed $8,870,579 and (ii) the minimum amount of the Aggregate Common Stock shall proportionately decrease by a corresponding amount.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Mid Penn Common Stock shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates, no dividend or distri bution with respect to Mid Penn Common Stock shall be payable on or with respect to any fractional share interest, and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a shareholder of Mid Penn. In lieu of the issuance of any such fractional share, Mid Penn shall pay to each former holder of Scottdale Common Stock who otherwise would be entitled to receive a fractional share of Mid Penn Common Stock, an amount in cash, rounded to the nearest cent and without interest, equal to the product of (i) the fraction of a share to which such holder would otherwise have been entitled and (ii) the closing sale price of a share of Mid Penn Common Stock reported on Nasdaq on the trading day immediately preceding the C losing Date. For purposes of determining any fractional share interest, all shares of Scottdale Common Stock owned by a Scottdale shareholder shall be combined so as to calculate the maximum number of whole shares of Mid Penn Common Stock issuable to such Scottdale shareholder.

3.2. Procedures for Exchange of Scottdale Common Stock.

(a) Conversion Alternatives. Subject to Sections 3.1(i) and 3.3 concerning fractional shares and Dissenter Shares and Section 3.2(e) concerning allocations, each share of Scottdale Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Closing Date shall, at the Effective Time, by reason of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, cease to be outstanding and shall be automatically cancelled and cease to exist, and, except for Mid Penn Owned Shares, shall be converted into the right to receive, at the election of the holder thereof, the Per Share Cash Consideration or the Per Share Common Stock Consideration as set forth in this Section 3.2.

(C) the Exchange Agent shall reallocate, on a pro rata basis, a sufficient number of Cash Election Shares (excluding Dissenter Shares) into Common Stock Election Shares such that the number of Cash Election Shares is equal to the Stock Conversion Number, and each such reallocated Cash Election Share shall be converted into the right to receive the Per Share Common Stock Consideration in the Merger.

(f) Cancellation of Certain Common Stock. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.2, at the Effective Time, each share of Scottdale Common Stock that is owned, directly or indirectly, by Mid Penn or any Mid Penn Subsidiary (other than shares that are held in trust, managed, custodial or nominee accounts and the like and which are beneficially owned by third parties or held for debts previously contracted) (“Mid Penn Owned Shares”) shall cease to exist and certificates representing such shares shall be cancelled and no cash, stock or other property shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(g) Subject to the other provisions of this Article III, on or immediately prior to the Closing Date, Mid Penn shall deposit in trust with or otherwise make available to the Exchange Agent for the benefit of the holders of shares of Scottdale Common Stock, for exchange in accordance with this Agreement, through the Exchange Agent, (i) certificates representing the Aggregate Common Stock Consideration, (ii) cash sufficient to pay the Aggregate Cash Consideration and (iii) cash sufficient to pay holders of what would have been fractional shares pursuant to Section 3.1(i) (such cash and certificates for shares of Mid Penn Common Stock being hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Fund”).

(h) As promptly as practicable, but in any event no later than five Business Days following the Effective Time, and provided that Scottdale has delivered, or caused to be delivered, to the Exchange Agent all information that is necessary for the Exchange Agent to perform its obligations as specified herein, the Exchange Agent shall mail to each holder of record of a Scottdale Certificate who has not previously surrendered such Scottdale Certificate with a letter of transmittal, a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Scottdale Certificate shall pass, only upon delivery of the Scottdale Certificate to the Exchange Agent) and instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Scottdale Certificates in exchange for the Merger Consideration as provided for in this Agreement. Each holder of Scottdale Common Stock, upon proper surrender of Scottdale Certificates to the Exchange Agent, accompanied by duly executed Letters of Transmittal, shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor (i) a certificate representing the number of whole shares of Mid Penn Common Stock to which such holder of Scottdale Common Stock shall have become entitled pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.2, and/or (ii) a check representing the amount of Per Share Cash Consideration and any cash in lieu of fractional shares which such holder has the right to receive hereunder. Each Scottdale Certificate so surrendered shall be cancelled. Until so surrendered, each Scottdale Certificate will be deemed for all purposes after the Effective Time to represent and evidence solely the right to receive the Merger Consideration to be paid therefor pursuant to this Agreement. Except as required by Law, no interest shall be payable with respect to the Per Share Cash Consideration, the cash payable for fractional shares or the cash payable for Objecting Shares.

Pending such surrender, any dividend or distribution payable in respect of such shares shall be delivered to the Exchange Agent to be held as part of the Exchange Fund. After the surrender of a Scottdale Certificate in accordance with Section 3.2(b) and Section 3.2(h), the record holder thereof shall be entitled to receive any such dividends or other distributions, without any interest thereon, which theretofore had become payable with respect to shares of Mid Penn Common Stock represented by such Scottdale Certificate.

(k) If the Person surrendering a Scottdale Certificate and signing the accompanying Letter of Transmittal is not the record holder thereof, or if any certificate representing shares of Mid Penn Common Stock is to be issued in a name other than that in which a Scottdale Certificate surrendered in exchange therefor is registered, it shall be a condition of the payment of the Merger Consideration that: (i) such Scottdale Certificate is properly endorsed to such Person or is accompanied by appropriate stock powers, in either case signed exactly as the name of the record holder appears on such Scottdale Certificate, and is otherwise in proper form for transfer, or is accompanied by appropriate evidence of the authority of the Person surrendering such Certificate and signing the letter of transmittal to do so on behalf of the record holder; and (ii) the Person requesting such exchange shall pay to the Exchange Agent in advance any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the payment to a Person other than the registered holder of the Scottdale Certificate surrendered, or required for any other reason, or shall establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

(l) From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of Scottdale of the shares of Scottdale Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Scottdale Certificates are presented for transfer, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration as provided in this Article II.

(m) The Exchange Agent will be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions hereby to any holder of Scottdale Common Stock such amounts as the Exchange Agent is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any applicable provision of U.S. federal, state, local or non-U.S. tax law. To the extent that such amounts are properly withheld by the Exchange Agent, such withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the Scottdale Common Stock in respect of whom such deduction and withholding were made by the Exchange Agent.

(n) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains unclaimed by the holders of Scottdale Common Stock for six months after the Effective Time shall be paid to Mid Penn. Any holders of Scottdale Common Stock who have not theretofore complied with this Section 3.2(n) shall thereafter look only to Mid Penn for payment of the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect of each share of Scottdale Common Stock such stockholder holds as determined pursuant to this Agreement, without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Scottdale, Mid Penn, the Exchange Agent or any other person shall not be liable to any former holder of Scottdale Common Stock for any amount delivered in good faith to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws.

Scottdale Acquisition Proposal that it received (that did not result from a breach of this Section 6.8) constitutes a Superior Proposal (it being understood that Scottdale shall be required to deliver a new Notice of Superior Proposal in respect of any revised Superior Proposal from such third party or its affiliates that Scottdale proposes to accept and the subsequent notice period shall be five (5) Business Days) if, but only if, (i) the Scottdale Board of Directors has reasonably determined in good faith, after consultation with and having considered the advice of outside legal counsel and its financial advisor, that the failure to take such actions would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to Scottdale’s shareholders under applicable law and (ii) at the end of such five (5) Business Day period, after taking into account any such adjusted, modified or amended terms as may have been committed to in writing by Mid Penn since its receipt of such Notice of Superior Proposal (provided, however, that Mid Penn shall not have any obligation to propose any adjustments, modifications or amendments to the terms and conditions of this Agreement), the Scottdale Board of Directors has again in good faith made the determination (A) in clause (i) of this Section 6.8(e) and (B) that such Scottdale Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal.

(f) Nothing contained in this Section 6.8 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall prohibit Scottdale or the Scottdale Board of Directors from (i) complying with Scottdale’s obligations under Rule 14d-9 (as if such rule were applicable to Scottdale) and Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act, or (ii) making any disclosure to its shareholders if, in each case, the Board of Directors is advised in a written legal opinion of outside counsel to Scottdale that the failure to make such disclosure to Scottdale’s shareholders would result in a breach of their fiduciary duty under Pennsylvania law.

6.10. Board of Directors and Committee Meetings.

Scottdale shall have available at its offices a copy of any Scottdale board or board committee package, including the agenda and any draft minutes, at the same time at which it makes a copy of such package available to the board of directors of Scottdale or any committee thereof, as the case may be, with, at Mid Penn’s option, a copy sent to Mid Penn by overnight mail following such meeting, and Scottdale shall give Mid Penn prior notice of, and shall permit representatives of Mid Penn (no more than two) to attend in-person or telephonically (to the extent practicable), any meeting of the board of directors of Scottdale or the Executive and Loan Committees thereof as an observer, provided that Scottdale shall not be required to permit the Mid Penn representatives to copy Mid Penn on any documents with respect to, or permit the Mid Penn representative to remain present during, any confidential discussion of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby or any third party proposal to acquire control of Scottdale or during any other matter that the respective board of directors has been advised of by outside counsel that such distribution to, or participation by Mid Penn would violate a confidentiality obligation or fiduciary duty or any Law, or may result in a waiver of Scottdale’s attorney-client privilege.

(b) Mid Penn and Scottdale agree that if Donald F. Kiefer is unable to serve as a director, resigns as a director, reaches the retirement age set forth in the retirement policy applicable to all non-employee directors of Mid Penn or is removed as a director, and the shareholders of Scottdale identified in Schedule 7.8(b) (the “Kiefer Shareholders”) shall beneficially own at least ten percent of the issued and outstanding shares of Mid Penn Common Stock, the Kiefer Shareholders shall have the ability to recommend a Candidate for approval by the board of directors of Mid Penn (the “Board”) pursuant to the process described in this Section 7.8, in good faith after exercising its fiduciar y duties, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, to serve as a replacement on the Board for Mr. Kiefer or any successor to Mr. Kiefer’s Board seat appointed pursuant to this Section 7.8 (the “Replacement Director”).

(i) Within a reasonable period of time following such occurrence, the Kiefer Shareholders shall supply the nominating committee of the Board (the “Nominating Committee”) with a list of not less than three persons for consideration by the Nominating Committee for appointment to the Board (the “Nominee List”).

A-49


Table of Contents

consider each Candidate included in the Nominee List in good faith and either recommend a Candidate for appointment by the Board or inform the Kiefer Shareholders by written notice that it has no such recommendation for the Board (a “No Recommendation Notice”).

(ii) Upon receipt of a No Recommendation Notice, the Kiefer Shareholders may, within a reasonable period of time following receipt of such No Recommendation Notice, supply the Nominating Committee with a second Nominee List. The Nominating Committee shall, within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of a second Nominee List, consider and make a determination in the same manner described in clause (i) above to either recommend a Candidate from such Nominee List for appointment by the Board or deliver to the Kiefer Shareholders a No Recommendation Notice.

(iii) Upon receipt of a second No Recommendation Notice, the Kiefer Shareholders shall, within a reasonable period of time following receipt of such No Recommendation Notice, supply the Nominating Committee with a third Nominee List. The Nominating Committee shall, within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of a third Nominee List, consider and make a determination in the same manner described in clause (i) above to either recommend a Candidate from such Nominee List for appointment by the Board or deliver to the Kiefer Shareholders a No Recommendation Notice.

(iv) Within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of a third No Recommendation Notice, the Kiefer Shareholders and Mid Penn shall request a list of at least five (5) persons qualified to be a Candidate from the National Association of Corporate Directors. The Kiefer Shareholders shall choose at least three (3) of the persons supplied by the National Association of Corporate Directors and include them in a final Nominee List submitted to the Nominating Committee. The Nominating Committee shall, within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of the Nominee List, consider each Candidate included in the final Nominee List in the same manner described in clause (i) above and shall recommend a Candidate from the final Nominee List for appointment by the Board.

(v) The Board shall vote on the appointment of a Candidate recommended by the Nominating Committee to the Board as the Replacement Director no later than ten (10) business days after receipt of the Nominating Committee’s recommendation of such Candidate; provided, however, that if the Board does not elect such Replacement Director to the Board, the parties shall continue to follow the procedures of this Section 13(b) until a Replacement Director is elected to the Board.

The Kiefer Shareholders shall not include any candidate (a “Candidate”) on any Nominee List furnished pursuant to this Section 7.8 unless (A) such Candidate has business experience appropriate for service on the board of directors of a banking institution and a public company, (B) such Candidate is an individual of high caliber and reputation, (C) such Candidate would, to the Kiefer Shareholders’ knowledge, be an “independent director” as defined in the applicable NASDAQ Marketplace Rule and meet the criteria for independence set forth in Rule 10A-3(b)(1) under the Exchange Act, and (D) such Candidate would not require disclosure of any agreement or arrangement pursuant to Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5250(b)(3). No person shall be on any Nominee List if any member of the Kiefer Shareholders has reason to believe that it is unlikely that such person would serve as a director if requested.

(c) Mid Penn Bank will appoint the Replacement Director appointed to the Board to the board of directors of Mid Penn Bank.

Table of Contents

employees of Mid Penn and the Mid Penn Subsidiaries. Additionally, commencing at the Effective Time, Mid Penn shall provide Donald F. Kiefer with health insurance under a Mid Penn Benefit Plan until his sixty-fifth birthday or pay him a COBRA Reimbursement and shall include the same commitment in its employment agreement with Lawrence J Keifer.

(b) After the Closing Date, the Scottdale Benefit Plans may, at Mid Penn’s election and subject to the requirements of the Code and ERISA, continue to be maintained separately, consolidated, merged, frozen or terminated; provided, however, that after the Closing Date, Mid Penn shall amend the Scottdale 401(k) plan to freeze participation and contributions under such plan contemporaneously with the participation of all eligible Scottdale employees in the applicable Mid Penn 401(k) plan. Following such action, Mid Penn will continue to maintain the individual participant accounts under the Scottdale 401(k) plan until such time as the Scottdale 401(k) plan assets are merged with and into the applicable Mid Penn 401(k) plan in accordance with the requirements of Code Section 414(1). In all events, Scottdale 401(k) plan participants who, as of the date of its consolidation, merger, freeze or termination, whichever occurs first, had outstanding plan loans shall be permitted to repay those loans in accordance with the terms thereof.

(c) Employees of Scottdale who become participants in a Mid Penn Benefit Plan shall, except with respect to any Mid Penn Excluded Benefit Plan, be given credit for service as an employee of Scottdale or any predecessor thereto prior to the Effective Time for purposes of determining eligibility to participate in such plans, vesting purposes under such plans and benefit levels (but not benefit accrual) under such plans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, employees of Scottdale who become eligible to participate in a Mid Penn Excluded Benefit Plan within the meaning of ERISA Section 3(2) shall be treated as new employees (without any credit for service prior to the Closing Date) for all purposes under any such Mid Penn Excluded Benefit Plan.

(d) This Agreement shall not be construed to limit the ability of Mid Penn or Mid Penn Bank to terminate the employment of any employee or to review employee benefits programs from time to time and to make such changes (including terminating any benefit plan or program) as it deems appropriate.

(e) In the event of any termination of any Scottdale health plan or consolidation of any Scottdale health plan with any Mid Penn health plan, Mid Penn shall make available to employees of Scottdale and their dependents health coverage on the same basis as it provides such coverage to Mid Penn employees. Unless an employee of Scottdale affirmatively terminates coverage under a Scottdale health plan prior to the time that such employee becomes eligible to participate in the Mid Penn health plan, no coverage of any of the employees of Scottdale or their dependents shall terminate under any of the Scottdale health plans prior to the time such employees and their dependents become eligible to participate in the health plans, programs and benefits common to all employees of Mid Penn and their dependents. In the event of a termination or consolidation of any Scottdale health plan, terminated Scottdale employees and qualified beneficiaries will have the right, if applicable, to continuation coverage under group health plans of Mid Penn in accordance with COBRA and/or other applicable law. With respect to any employee of Scottdale, any coverage limitation under the Mid Penn health plan due to any pre-existing condition shall be waived by the Mid Penn health plan to the degree that such condition was covered by the Scottdale health plan and such condition would otherwise have been covered by the Mid Penn health plan in the absence of such coverage limitation. Mid Penn shall cause the applicable Mid Penn Benefit Plan to recognize any medical or other health expense incurred by an employee of Scottdale in the plan year that includes the Closing Date for purposes of determining any applicable deductible and annual out of pocket expense thereunder.

(f) In the event (i) Mid Penn terminates the employment (other than for circumstances reasonably constituting cause) of any active employees of Scottdale (other than employees of Scottdale who are subject to employment, change of control or similar contracts) who were employees as of the date of this Agreement, and immediately prior to the Effective Time (each such employee, a “Scottdale Continuing Employee”), or (ii) such Scottdale Continuing Employee is not offered or retained in substantially comparable employment, with respect to job description, responsibilities and pay, with Mid Penn or Mid Penn Bank, as applicable, then Mid Penn shall

pay severance benefits to such employees as follows: (A) in the event employment is terminated on or prior to the date which is twelve (12) months after the Closing Date, two (2) weeks’ salary for each full year of continuous service with Scottdale, with a minimum severance benefit of two (2) weeks and a maximum severance benefit of twenty-six (26) weeks; (B) in the event employment is terminated thereafter, in accordance with the then existing severance policy of Mid Penn or its successor; or (C) as otherwise agreed between Scottdale and Mid Penn.

(g) Mid Penn agrees to honor, or cause one of the Mid Penn Subsidiaries to honor, in accordance with their terms, all employment and change of control agreements listed on Scottdale Disclosure Schedule 4.8(a), subject to any limitations imposed under applicable law or by any Regulatory Authority (other than tax laws); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prevent Mid Penn or any of the Mid Penn Subsidiaries from amending or terminating any such agreement in accordance with its terms and applicable law. Mid Penn will take such steps as necessary to comply with the disclosure requirements of Internal Revenue Service Notice 1020-6 with respect to the amendments to the employment agreements disclosed on Scottdale Disclosure Schedule 4.8(a).

(h) Mid Penn shall establish a retention bonus pool up to $50,000 for employees designated in writing by Mid Penn after the date hereof, based upon recommendations by Scottdale (other than employees of Scottdale who are subject to employment contracts or other contracts providing for severance or after payments upon termination of employment or upon change of control of Scottdale, except as provided on Scottdale Disclosure Schedule 4.8(a)), in order to help retain key employees and shall establish the amount of the retention bonus for each such employee in its sole discretion. Following such designations by Mid Penn, representatives of Mid Penn and Scottdale shall, at a mutually convenient time, jointly present such retention bonus opportunity to such designated employees of Scottdale. Such bonuses shall be payable after the Effective Date on a date determined by Mid Penn in the event that the designated employee remains employed by Scottdale, Mid Penn or Mid Penn Bank, as the case may be, until the Effective Date or a date thereafter determined by Mid Penn; provided that the employee satisfactorily fulfills the duties of such employee’s position through such date.

(i) The provisions of this Section 7.9 are solely for the benefit of the parties to this Agreement, and no current or former director, officer, employee, other service provider or independent contractor or any other person shall be a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement, and nothing herein shall be construed as an amendment to any Scottdale or Mid Penn Benefit Plan or other compensation or benefit plan or arrangement for any purpose.

7.10. Directors and Officers Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) For a period of six years after the Effective Time, Mid Penn shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each person who is now, or who has been at any time before the date hereof or who becomes before the Effective Time, an officer, director or employee of Scottdale (the “Indemnified Parties”) against all losses, claims, damages, costs, expenses (including attorney’s fees), liabilities or judgments or amounts that are paid in settlement (which settlement shall require the prior written consent of Mid Penn, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) of or in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, or administrative (each a “Claim”), in which an Indemnified Party is, or is threatened to be made, a party or witness in whole or in part or arising in whole or in part out of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer or employee of Scottdale if such Claim pertains to any matter of fact arising, existing or occurring at or before the Effective Time (including, without limitation, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby), regardless of whether such Claim is asserted or claimed before, or after, the Effective Time, to the fullest extent as would have been permitted by Scottdale under the PBC and under Scottdale’s articles of incorporation and bylaws. Mid Penn shall pay expenses in advance of the final disposition of any such action or proceeding to each Indemnified Party to the fullest extent as would have been permitted by Scottdale under the PBC and under Scottdale’s articles of incorporation and bylaws, upon receipt of an undertaking to repay such advance payments if such Indemnified Party shall be adjudicated or determined to be

not entitled to indemnification in the manner set forth below. Any Indemnified Party wishing to claim indemnification under this subsection upon learning of any Claim, shall notify Mid Penn (but the failure so to notify Mid Penn shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under this subsection, except to the extent such failure materially prejudices Mid Penn) and shall deliver to Mid Penn the undertaking referred to in the previous sentence. Without limiting the foregoing, in any case in which approval by Mid Penn, one of it s Subsidiaries or the board of directors thereof is required to effect any indemnification, at the election of the Indemnified Party, the determination of any such approval shall be made by a majority of the independent directors then in office or, if no such directors are then in office, by independent counsel mutually agreed upon between Mid Penn and the Indemnified Party. Nothing contained in this Section 7.10 or any other provision of this Agreement shall limit any right to indemnification which any current or former director, officer, employee or agent of Scottdale may have under applicable law or regulation or Scottdale’s articles of incorporation, bylaws, or the equivalent documents of any Subsidiary of Scottdale, as applicable, in each case as in effect on the date hereof, which Mid Penn agrees to honor in accordance with their terms.

(b) In the event that either Mid Penn or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other person and shall not be the continuing or surviving bank or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Mid Penn shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 7.10.

(c) The obligations of Mid Penn provided under this Section 7.10 are intended to be enforceable against Mid Penn directly by the Indemnified Parties and shall be binding on all respective successors and permitted assigns of Mid Penn.

7.11. Stock Reserve.

Mid Penn agrees at all times from the date of this Agreement until the Merger Consideration has been paid in full to reserve a sufficient number of shares of its common stock and to maintain sufficient liquid accounts or borrowing capacity to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement.

7.12. Exchange Listing.

Prior to the Effective Date, Mid Penn will take all steps necessary to list on the Nasdaq (or such other national securities exchange on which the shares of Mid Penn Common Stock shall be listed as of the date of consummation of the Merger), subject to official notice of issuance, the shares of Mid Penn Common Stock to be issued in the Merger.

7.13. Scottdale Bank Division.

Upon completion of the Merger and for three (3) years immediately thereafter, Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank shall cause Mid Penn Bank to operate Scottdale as a separate division of Mid Penn Bank under the name “Scottdale Bank & Trust, a Division of Mid Penn Bank” (the “Scottdale Bank Division”). Upon Closing or promptly thereafter, Mid Penn Bank shall form an advisory board and invite all members of the board of directors of Scottdale, as of the date hereof to join such advisory board on further terms and conditions to be determined by Mid Penn prior to Closing.

7.14. Ongoing Charitable Commitment.

For at least four years following the Effective Time, Mid Penn shall, or shall cause Mid Penn Bank to, maintain the $75,000 annual donation to the Marilyn K.

In the Merger, each share of the common stock of Scottdale (“Scottdale Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted, at the election of the holder thereof (subject to proration and reallocation as set forth in the Merger Agreement, as to which we express no opinion), either (i) $1,166 in cash (the “Cash Consideration”) or (ii) that number (the “Exchange Ratio”) of shares of the common stock, par value $1.00, of Mid Penn (“Mid Penn Common Stock”) equal to the quotient of (a) $1,166, divided by (b) the Average Price (the “Stock Consideration”); provided that the Merger Agreement provides that the total percentage of outstanding shares of Scottdale Common Stock receiving the Cash Consideration will not exceed 10% and the total percentage of outstanding shares of Scottdale Common Stock receiving the Stock Consideration will not be less than 90%; and provided further that the Merger Agreement provides that the Stock Consideration is subject to an Exchange Ratio collar (as to which collar we express no opinion). The Stock Consideration and the Cash Consideration, taken together, are referred to herein as the “Merger Consideration.” Capitalized terms used herein without definition have the meanings assigned to them in the Merger Agreement. The terms and conditions of the Merger are more fully set forth in the Merger Agreement.

    Reviewed a draft dated March 27, 2017 of the Agreement and Plan of Merger to be entered into by Scottdale, Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank (the “Merger Agreement”);

 

    Reviewed Scottdale’s audited financial statements as of or for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015;

Ambassador does not assume any responsibility for the accuracy, reasonableness and completeness of any of the foregoing Materials Received and publicly available information or for the independent verification thereof.

We also have assumed, with your consent, that, in the course of obtaining the necessary governmental, regulatory and other third party approvals, consents and releases for the Merger, including with respect to any divestiture or other requirements, no delay, limitation, restriction or condition will be imposed that would have an adverse effect on Scottdale, Mid Penn or the Merger (including the contemplated benefits thereof). We also have assumed, with your consent, that the final Merger Agreement will not differ from the draft reviewed by us in any respect material to our analyses or opinion. We further have assumed, with your consent, that the Merger will qualify for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

We express no view or opinion as to any terms or other aspects (other than the Merger Consideration to the extent expressly specified herein) of the Merger or any related transaction. Our opinion does not address the relative merits of the Merger as compared to any other transaction or business strategy in which Scottdale might engage or the merits of the underlying decision by Scottdale to engage in the Merger. Ambassador expresses no opinion with respect to the fairness of the amount or nature of any compensation to any of the officers, directors, or employees of any party to the Merger, or any class of such persons, relative to the Merger Consideration or otherwise.

Ambassador’s fairness committee has approved the issuance of this fairness opinion letter.

Scottdale has engaged the services of Ambassador to act as its financial advisor in connection with the Merger and has agreed to pay Ambassador a fee for such services, a portion of which is payable upon presentation of this opinion and a significant portion of Ambassador’s fee is contingent upon the closing of the Merger. In addition, portions of Ambassador’s fee became payable upon the signing of our engagement agreement, upon approval by Scottdale of a confidential information memorandum regarding Scottdale and its business provided to third parties and upon the execution of an exclusivity agreement between Scottdale and Mid Penn, and a portion of Ambassador’s fee will be payable upon the mailing of Scottdale’s proxy statement to its shareholders regarding the Merger.

We are an approved broker-dealer for Mid Penn Bank and periodically purchase and sell securities to Mid Penn Bank.

Over the past two years, we have not provided investment banking or other consulting services to Scottdale or Mid Penn for which we have received compensation from Scottdale or Mid Penn. In the future, Ambassador may pursue the opportunities to provide investment banking and other consulting services to Scottdale and/or Mid Penn, but none have been discussed or contemplated.

Our opinion is for the benefit of the Board of Directors of Scottdale (in its capacity as such) and our opinion is rendered to the Board of Directors of Scottdale in connection with its evaluation of the Merger. Our opinion is not intended to and does not constitute a recommendation to any shareholder as to how such shareholder should vote or act with respect to the Merger or any matter relating thereto.

Based on the foregoing, our experience, and other factors we deemed relevant, it is our opinion that, as of the date hereof, that the Merger Consideration to be received by the holders of Scottdale Common Stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement is fair to such holders from a financial point of view.

 

Respectfully submitted,

Millersburg, PA 17061

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Mid Penn Bancorp, Inc. (“Mid Penn”), Mid Penn Bank, a subsidiary of Mid Penn (“Mid Penn Bank”), and The Scottdale Bank & Trust Co. (“Scottdale”) are proposing to enter into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Agreement”) pursuant to which Scottdale will merge with and into Mid Penn Bank with Mid Penn Bank being the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, upon the Effective Time of the Merger, each share of Scottdale common stock (“Scottdale Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, except for certain shares of Scottdale Common Stock as specified in the Agreement, shall be converted at the election of the holder thereof into: (a) $1,166.00 in cash (the “Per Share Cash Consideration”); or (b) a certain number of shares of Mid Penn common stock, par value $1.00 per share (the “Per Share Common Stock Consideration”) equal to the Exchange Ratio. As set forth in the Agreement, the Exchange Ratio shall be an amount equal to $1,166.00 divided by the Average Price, rounded down to the nearest one-hundredth; provided, however, that in no event may the Exchange Ratio be less than 38.88 or greater than 44.86. If the Exchange Ratio would otherwise be less than 38.88 or more than 44.86, then 38.88 or 44.86, respectively, shall be used. The Per Share Cash Consideration and the Per Share Common Stock Consideration are collectively referred to herein as the “Merger Consideration.” The Agreement provides, generally, that shareholder elections may be adjusted as necessary to result in an overall ratio of not more than 10% of Scottdale Common Stock being converted into the right to receive the Per Share Cash Consideration and not less than 90% of Scottdale Common Stock being converted into the right to receive the Per Share Common Stock Consideration. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Agreement. The terms and conditions of the Merger are more fully set forth in the Agreement. You have requested our opinion as to the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the Merger Consideration to Mid Penn.

Sandler O’Neill & Partners, L.P. (“Sandler O’Neill”, “we” or “our”), as part of its investment banking business, is regularly engaged in the valuation of financial institutions and their securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions and other corporate transactions. In connection with this opinion, we have reviewed and considered, among other things: (i) a draft of the Agreement, dated March 27, 2017; (ii) certain publicly available financial statements and other historical financial information of Mid Penn and Mid Penn Bank that we deemed relevant; (iii) certain publicly available financial statements and other historical financial information of Scottdale and its banking subsidiary that we deemed relevant; (iv) internal financial projections for Mid Penn for the years ending December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2020, as provided by the senior management of Mid Penn; (v) financial projections for Scottdale for the years ending December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2020, as provided by the senior management of Mid Penn; (vi) the pro forma financial impact of the Merger on Mid Penn based on certain assumptions relating to transaction expenses, purchase accounting adjustments, cost savings and certain balance sheet restructuring transactions, as provided by the senior management of Mid Penn; (vii) the publicly reported historical price and trading activity for Mid Penn common stock, including a comparison of certain stock market information for Mid Penn common stock and certain stock indices, as well as similar publicly available information for certain other similar companies, the securities of which are publicly traded; (viii) a comparison of certain financial information for Mid Penn and Scottdale with similar institutions for which information is publicly available; (ix) the financial terms of certain recent business combinations in the bank and thrift industry (on a regional and nationwide basis), to the extent publicly available; (x) the current market environment generally and the banking environment in particular; and (xi) such other information, financial studies, analyses and investigations and financial, economic and market criteria as we considered relevant. We also discussed with certain members of the senior management of Mid Penn the business, financial

condition, results of operations and prospects of Mid Penn and held similar discussions with certain members of the senior management of Scottdale regarding the business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects of Scottdale.

In performing our review, we have relied upon the accuracy and completeness of all of the financial and other information that was available to and reviewed by us from public sources, that was provided to us by Mid Penn or Scottdale, or their respective representatives, or that was otherwise reviewed by us and we have assumed such accuracy and completeness for purposes of rendering this opinion without any independent verification or investigation. We have further relied on the assurances of the respective managements of Mid Penn and Scottdale that they are not aware of any facts or circumstances that would make any of such information inaccurate or misleading. We have not been asked to and have not undertaken an independent verification of any of such information and we do not assume any responsibility or liability for the accuracy or completeness thereof. We did not make an independent evaluation or perform an appraisal of the specific assets, the collateral securing assets or the liabilities (contingent or otherwise) of Mid Penn or Scottdale, or any of their respective subsidiaries, nor have we been furnished with any such evaluations or appraisals. We render no opinion or evaluation on the collectability of any assets or the future performance of any loans of Mid Penn or Scottdale or any of their respective subsidiaries. We did not make an independent evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses of Mid Penn or Scottdale, or the combined entity after the Merger, and we have not reviewed any individual credit files relating to Mid Penn or Scottdale. We have assumed, with your consent, that the respective allowances for loan losses for both Mid Penn and Scottdale are adequate to cover such losses and will be adequate on a pro forma basis for the combined entity.

In preparing its analyses, Sandler O’Neill used internal financial projections for Mid Penn for the years ending December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2020, as provided by the senior management of Mid Penn, as well as financial projections for Scottdale for the years ending December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2020, as provided by the senior management of Mid Penn. Sandler O’Neill also received and used in its pro forma analyses certain assumptions relating to transaction expenses, purchase accounting adjustments, cost savings and certain balance sheet restructuring transactions, as provided by the senior management of Mid Penn. With respect to the foregoing information, the senior management of Mid Penn confirmed to us that such information reflected the best currently available projections, estimates and judgments of the senior management of Mid Penn and we assumed that the financial results reflected in such information would be achieved. We express no opinion as to such projections, estimates or judgments, or the assumptions on which they are based. We have also assumed that there has been no material change in Mid Penn’s or Scottdale’s (or any of their respective subsidiaries’) assets, financial condition, results of operations, business or prospects since the date of the most recent financial statements made available to us. We have assumed in all respects material to our analysis that Mid Penn and Scottdale will remain as going concerns for all periods relevant to our analyses.

We have also assumed, with your consent, that (i) each of the parties to the Agreement will comply in all material respects with all material terms and conditions of the Agreement and all related agreements, that all of the representations and warranties contained in such agreements are true and correct in all material respects, that each of the parties to such agreements will perform in all material respects all of the covenants and other obligations required to be performed by such party under such agreements and that the conditions precedent in such agreements are not and will not be waived, (ii) in the course of obtaining the necessary regulatory or third party approvals, consents and releases with respect to the Merger, no delay, limitation, restriction or condition will be imposed that would have an adverse effect on Mid Penn, Scottdale or the Merger or any related transaction, (iii) the Merger and any related transactions will be consummated in accordance with the terms of the Agreement without any waiver, modification or amendment of any material term, condition or agreement thereof and in compliance with all applicable laws and other requirements, and (iv) the Merger will qualify as a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax purposes. Finally, with your consent, we have relied upon the advice that Mid Penn has received from its legal, accounting and tax advisors as to all legal, accounting and tax matters relating to the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Agreement.

Our opinion is necessarily based on financial, economic, market and other conditions as in effect on, and the information made available to us as of, the date hereof. Events occurring after the date hereof could materially affect this opinion. We have not undertaken to update, revise, reaffirm or withdraw this opinion or otherwise comment upon events occurring after the date hereof. We express no opinion as to the trading values of Mid Penn Common Stock or Scottdale Common Stock at any time or what the value of Mid Penn Common Stock will be once it is actually received by the holders of Scottdale Common Stock.

We have acted as Mid Penn’s financial advisor in connection with the Merger and will receive a fee for our services, a substantial portion of which is contingent upon consummation of the Merger. We will also receive a fee for rendering this opinion, which opinion fee will be credited in full towards the portion of the transaction fee which will become payable to Sandler O’Neill on the day of closing of the Merger. Mid Penn has also agreed to indemnify us against certain claims and liabilities arising out of our engagement and to reimburse us for certain of our out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with our engagement. We have not provided any other investment banking services to Mid Penn in the two years preceding the date of this opinion. Sandler O’Neill has not provided any investment banking services to Scottdale in the two years preceding the date of this opinion. In the ordinary course of our business as a broker-dealer, we may purchase securities from and sell securities to Mid Penn, Scottdale and their respective affiliates. We may also actively trade the equity and debt securities of Mid Penn and Scottdale or their respective affiliates for our own account and for the accounts of our customers.

Our opinion is directed to the Board of Directors of Mid Penn in connection with its consideration of the Agreement and Merger and does not constitute a recommendation to any shareholder of Mid Penn as to how any such shareholder should vote at any meeting of shareholders called to consider and vote upon the Merger. Our opinion is directed only to the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the Merger Consideration to Mid Penn and does not address the underlying business decision of Mid Penn to engage in the Merger, the form or structure of the Merger or any other transactions contemplated in the Agreement, the relative merits of the Merger as compared to any other alternative transactions or business strategies that might exist for Mid Penn or the effect of any other transaction in which Mid Penn might engage. We also do not express any opinion as to the fairness of the amount or nature of the compensation to be received in the Merger by any Mid Penn or Scottdale officer, director or employee, or class of such persons, if any, relative to the amount of compensation to be received by any other shareholder. This opinion has been approved by Sandler O’Neill’s fairness opinion committee. This opinion shall not be reproduced without Sandler O’Neill’s prior written consent; provided, however, Sandler O’Neill will provide its consent for the opinion to be included in regulatory filings to be completed in connection with the Merger.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, it is our opinion that, as of the date hereof, the Merger Consideration is fair to Mid Penn from a financial point of view.

 

Very truly yours,
/s/ Sandler O’Neill & Partners, L.P.

§ 1572. Definitions.

The following words and phrases when used in this subchapter shall have the meanings given to them in this section unless the context clearly indicates otherwise:

“Corporation.” The issuer of the shares held or owned by the dissenter before the corporate action or the successor by merger, consolidation, division, conversion or otherwise of that issuer. A plan of division may designate which one or more of the resulting corporations is the successor corporation for the purposes of this subchapter. The designated successor corporation or corporations in a division shall have sole responsibility for payments to dissenters and other liabilities under this subchapter except as otherwise provided in the plan of division.

“Dissenter.” A shareholder who is entitled to and does assert dissenters rights under this subchapter and who has performed every act required up to the time involved for the assertion of those rights.

“Fair value.” The fair value of shares immediately before the effectuation of the corporate action to which the dissenter objects, taking into account all relevant factors, but excluding any appreciation or depreciation in anticipation of the corporate action.

“Interest.” Interest from the effective date of the corporate action until the date of payment at such rate as is fair and equitable under all the circumstances, taking into account all relevant factors, including the average rate currently paid by the corporation on its principal bank loans.

“Shareholder.” A shareholder as defined in section 1103 (relating to definitions) or an ultimate beneficial owner of shares, including, without limitation, a holder of depository receipts, where the beneficial interest owned includes an interest in the assets of the corporation upon dissolution.

§ 1573. Record and beneficial holders and owners.

(a) Record holders of shares.—A record holder of shares of a business corporation may assert dissenters rights as to fewer than all of the shares registered in his name only if he dissents with respect to all the shares of the same class or series beneficially owned by any one person and discloses the name and address of the person or persons on whose behalf he dissents. In that event, his rights shall be determined as if the shares as to which he has dissented and his other shares were registered in the names of different shareholders.

(b) Beneficial owners of shares.—A beneficial owner of shares of a business corporation who is not the record holder may assert dissenters rights with respect to shares held on his behalf and shall be treated as a dissenting shareholder under the terms of this subchapter if he submits to the corporation not later than the time of the assertion of dissenters rights a written consent of the record holder. A beneficial owner may not dissent with respect to some but less than all shares of the same class or series owned by the owner, whether or not the shares so owned by him are registered in his name.

§ 1574. Notice of intention to dissent.

If the proposed corporate action is submitted to a vote at a meeting of shareholders of a business corporation, any person who wishes to dissent and obtain payment of the fair value of his shares must file with the corporation, prior to the vote, a written notice of intention to demand that he be paid the fair value for his shares if the proposed action is effectuated, must effect no change in the beneficial ownership of his shares from the date of such filing continuously through the effective date of the proposed action and must refrain from voting his shares in approval of such action. A dissenter who fails in any respect shall not acquire any right to payment of the fair value of his shares under this subchapter. Neither a proxy nor a vote against the proposed corporate action shall constitute the written notice required by this section.

§ 1575. Notice to demand payment.

(a) General rule.—If the proposed corporate action is approved by the required vote at a meeting of shareholders of a business corporation, the corporation shall deliver a further notice to all dissenters who gave due notice of intention to demand payment of the fair value of their shares and who refrained from voting in favor of the proposed action. If the proposed corporate action is approved by the shareholders by less than unanimous consent without a meeting or is taken without the need for approval by the shareholders, the corporation shall deliver to all shareholders who are entitled to dissent and demand payment of the fair value of their shares a notice of the adoption of the plan or other corporate action. In either case, the notice shall:

(1) State where and when a demand for payment must be sent and certificates for certificated shares must be deposited in order to obtain payment.

(2) Inform holders of uncertificated shares to what extent transfer of shares will be restricted from the time that demand for payment is received.

(3) Supply a form for demanding payment that includes a request for certification of the date on which the shareholder, or the person on whose behalf the shareholder dissents, acquired beneficial ownership of the shares.

§ 1576. Failure to comply with notice to demand payment, etc.

(a) Effect of failure of shareholder to act.—A shareholder who fails to timely demand payment, or fails (in the case of certificated shares) to timely deposit certificates, as required by a notice pursuant to section 1575 (relating to notice to demand payment) shall not have any right under this subchapter to receive payment of the fair value of his shares.

(b) Restriction on uncertificated shares.—If the shares are not represented by certificates, the business corporation may restrict their transfer from the time of receipt of demand for payment until effectuation of the proposed corporate action or the release of restrictions under the terms of section 1577(a) (relating to failure to effectuate corporate action).

(c) Rights retained by shareholder.—The dissenter shall retain all other rights of a shareholder until those rights are modified by effectuation of the proposed corporate action.

§ 1577. Release of restrictions or payment for shares.

(a) Failure to effectuate corporate action.—Within 60 days after the date set for demanding payment and depositing certificates, if the business corporation has not effectuated the proposed corporate action, it shall return any certificates that have been deposited and release uncertificated shares from any transfer restrictions imposed by reason of the demand for payment.

(b) Renewal of notice to demand payment.—When uncertificated shares have been released from transfer restrictions and deposited certificates have been returned, the corporation may at any later time send a new notice conforming to the requirements of section 1575 (relating to notice to demand payment), with like effect.

(c) Payment of fair value of shares.—Promptly after effectuation of the proposed corporate action, or upon timely receipt of demand for payment if the corporate action has already been effectuated, the corporation shall either remit to dissenters who have made demand and (if their shares are certificated) have deposited their certificates the amount that the corporation estimates to be the fair value of the shares, or give written notice that no remittance under this section will be made. The remittance or notice shall be accompanied by:

(1) The closing balance sheet and statement of income of the issuer of the shares held or owned by the dissenter for a fiscal year ending not more than 16 months before the date of remittance or notice together with the latest available interim financial statements.

(2) A statement of the corporation’s estimate of the fair value of the shares.

(3) A notice of the right of the dissenter to demand payment or supplemental payment, as the case may be, accompanied by a copy of this subchapter.

(d) Failure to make payment.—If the corporation does not remit the amount of its estimate of the fair value of the shares as provided by subsection (c), it shall return any certificates that have been deposited and release uncertificated shares from any transfer restrictions imposed by reason of the demand for payment. The corporation may make a notation on any such certificate or on the records of the corporation relating to any such uncertificated shares that such demand has been made. If shares with respect to which notation has been so made shall be transferred, each new certificate issued therefor or the records relating to any transferred uncertificated shares shall bear a similar notation, together with the name of the original dissenting holder or owner of such shares. A transferee of such shares shall not acquire by such transfer any rights in the corporation other than those that the original dissenter had after making demand for payment of their fair value.

§ 1578. Estimate by dissenter of fair value of shares.

(a) General rule.—If the business corporation gives notice of its estimate of the fair value of the shares, without remitting such amount, or remits payment of its estimate of the fair value of a dissenter’s shares as permitted by section 1577(c) (relating to payment of fair value of shares) and the dissenter believes that the amount stated or remitted is less than the fair value of his shares, he may send to the corporation his own estimate of the fair value of the shares, which shall be deemed a demand for payment of the amount or the deficiency.

(b) Effect of failure to file estimate.—Where the dissenter does not file his own estimate under subsection (a) within 30 days after the mailing by the corporation of its remittance or notice, the dissenter shall be entitled to no more than the amount stated in the notice or remitted to him by the corporation.

§ 1579. Valuation proceedings generally.

(a) General rule.—Within 60 days after the latest of:

(1) effectuation of the proposed corporate action;

(2) timely receipt of any demands for payment under section 1575 (relating to notice to demand payment); or

(3) timely receipt of any estimates pursuant to section 1578 (relating to estimate by dissenter of fair value of shares);

if any demands for payment remain unsettled, the business corporation may file in court an application for relief requesting that the fair value of the shares be determined by the court.

 

D-6


Table of Contents

(b) Mandatory joinder of dissenters.—All dissenters, wherever residing, whose demands have not been settled shall be made parties to the proceeding as in an action against their shares. A copy of the application shall be served on each such dissenter. If a dissenter is a nonresident, the copy may be served on him in the manner provided or prescribed by or pursuant to 42 Pa.C.S. Ch. 53 (relating to bases of jurisdiction and interstate and international procedure).

(c) Jurisdiction of the court.—The jurisdiction of the court shall be plenary and exclusive. The court may appoint an appraiser to receive evidence and recommend a decision on the issue of fair value. The appraiser shall have such power and authority as may be specified in the order of appointment or in any amendment thereof.

(d) Measure of recovery.—Each dissenter who is made a party shall be entitled to recover the amount by which the fair value of his shares is found to exceed the amount, if any, previously remitted, plus interest.

(e) Effect of corporation’s failure to file application.—If the corporation fails to file an application as provided in subsection (a), any dissenter who made a demand and who has not already settled his claim against the corporation may do so in the name of the corporation at any time within 30 days after the expiration of the 60-day period. If a dissenter does not file an application within the 30-day period, each dissenter entitled to file an application shall be paid the corporation’s estimate of the fair value of the shares and no more, and may bring an action to recover any amount not previously remitted.

§ 1580. Costs and expenses of valuation proceedings.

(a) General rule.—The costs and expenses of any proceeding under section 1579 (relating to valuation proceedings generally), including the reasonable compensation and expenses of the appraiser appointed by the court, shall be determined by the court and assessed against the business corporation except that any part of the costs and expenses may be apportioned and assessed as the court deems appropriate against all or some of the dissenters who are parties and whose action in demanding supplemental payment under section 1578 (relating to estimate by dissenter of fair value of shares) the court finds to be dilatory, obdurate, arbitrary, vexatious or in bad faith.

(b) Assessment of counsel fees and expert fees where lack of good faith appears.—Fees and expenses of counsel and of experts for the respective parties may be assessed as the court deems appropriate against the corporation and in favor of any or all dissenters if the corporation failed to comply substantially with the requirements of this subchapter and may be assessed against either the corporation or a dissenter, in favor of any other party, if the court finds that the party against whom the fees and expenses are assessed acted in bad faith or in a dilatory, obdurate, arbitrary or vexatious manner in respect to the rights provided by this subchapter.

(c) Award of fees for benefits to other dissenters.—If the court finds that the services of counsel for any dissenter were of substantial benefit to other dissenters similarly situated and should not be assessed against the corporation, it may award to those counsel reasonable fees to be paid out of the amounts awarded to the dissenters who were benefited.

PART II

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

 

Item 20. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Section 1741 of the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law, or the PBCL, provides, in general, that a corporation will have the power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation), by reason of the fact that the person is or was a representative of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a representative of another enterprise. Such indemnity may be against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the action or proceeding, if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation and if, with respect to any criminal proceeding, the person did not have reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

Section 1742 of the PBCL provides, in general, that a corporation will have the power to indemnify any person who was or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any threatened, pending or completed action by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person is or was a representative of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a representative of another entity. Such indemnity may be against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of the action if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation, except no indemnification will be made in respect of any claim, issue, or matter as to which the person has been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the court of common pleas of the judicial district embracing the county in which the registered office of the corporation is located or the court in which the action was brought will determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for the expenses that the court of common pleas or other court deems proper.

Under Section 1743 of the PBCL, the corporation is required to indemnify directors and officers against expenses they may incur in defending actions against them in such capacities if they are successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of such actions. Under Section 1745 of the PBCL, a corporation may pay the expenses of a director or officer incurred in defending an action or proceeding in advance of the final disposition thereof upon receipt of an undertaking from such person to repay the amounts advanced unless it is ultimately determined that such person is entitled to indemnification from the corporation. Mid Penn’s bylaws provides indemnification of directors, officers and other agents of Mid Penn and advancement of expenses to the extent otherwise permitted by Sections 1741, 1742 and 1745 of the PBCL.

Mid Penn’s bylaws provide that the rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses in the bylaws are not exclusive, and may be in addition to, any rights granted to an indemnitee under an agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise. As authorized by Section 1747 of the PBCL and Mid Penn’s bylaws, Mid Penn maintains, on behalf of its directors and officers, insurance protection against certain liabilities arising out of the discharge of their duties, as well as insurance covering Mid Penn for indemnification payments made to its directors and officers for certain liabilities. The premiums for such insurance are paid by Mid Penn.

The foregoing is only a general summary of certain aspects of Pennsylvania law and Mid Penn’s bylaws dealing with indemnification of directors and officers, and does not purport to be complete. The description of the bylaws is qualified in its entirety by reference to the detailed provisions of the bylaws of Mid Penn.

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act (the “Act”);

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any

increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) above do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-8 and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering

(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes as follows: that prior to any public reoffering of the securities registered hereunder through use of a prospectus which is a part of this Registration Statement, by any person or party who is deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of Rule 145(c), the registrant undertakes that such reoffering prospectus will contain information called for by the applicable registration from with respect to reofferings by persons who may be deemed underwriters, in addition to the information called by the other items of the applicable form.

(c) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(d) The undersigned hereby undertakes that every prospectus (i) that is filed pursuant to the paragraph immediately preceding, or (ii) that purports to meet the requirements of section 10(a)(3) of the Act and is used in connection with an offering of securities subject to Rule 415, will be filed as part of an amendment to the Registration Statement and will not be used until such amendment is effective, and that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(e) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel

the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

(g) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

(1) For the purposes of determining any liability under the Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in the form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
