CHEMUNG FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Basis of Presentation


Chemung Financial Corporation (the "Corporation"), through its wholly owned subsidiaries, Chemung Canal Trust Company (the "Bank") and CFS Group, Inc., a financial services company, provides a wide range of banking, financing, fiduciary and other financial services to its local market area. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

The data in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2008 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements in the Corporation's 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 13, 2009. That data, along with the other interim financial information presented in the consolidated balance sheets, statements of income, shareholders' equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, contained in the 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Amounts in prior periods' consolidated interim financial statements are reclassified whenever necessary to conform to the current period's presentation.

The consolidated financial statements included herein reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, of a normal recurring nature and necessary to present fairly the Corporation's financial position as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, and results of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, and changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2009 and 2008. The results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire fiscal year or any other interim period.


2.
Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share were computed by dividing net income by 3,599,799 and 3,598,284 weighted average shares outstanding for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively and 3,602,908 and 3,599,889 weighted average shares outstanding for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Issuable shares (such as those related to directors' restricted stock units and directors' stock compensation) are considered outstanding and are included in the computation of basic earnings per share as they are earned. There were no dilutive common stock equivalents during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2009 or 2008.


3.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations ("FAS 141(R)"), which establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in an acquiree, including the recognition and measurement of goodwill acquired in a business combination. FAS No. 141 (R) is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The new standard was applied to the Canton acquisition, resulting in the recognition of acquisition costs of $1.238 million through the period ended June 30, 2009.

In April 2009, the FASB issued Staff Position (FSP) No. 115-2 and No. 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments, which amends existing guidance for determining whether impairment is other-than-temporary (OTTI) for debt securities. The FSP requires an entity to assess whether it intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell a security in an unrealized loss position before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of these criteria is met, the entire difference between amortized cost and fair value is recognized in earnings. For securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the amount of impairment recognized in earnings is limited to the amount related to credit losses, while impairment related to other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income. Additionally, the FSP expands and increases the

5

frequency of existing disclosures about other-than-temporary impairments for debt and equity securities. This FSP is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. Through the period ended March 31, 2009, the Corporation recognized cumulative other-than-temporary pre-tax impairment charges reported in 2008 and the first quarter of 2009 totaling $959 thousand for various securities. The Corporation adopted the FSP effective April 1, 2009 and reversed pre-tax $402 thousand for the non-credit portion of the cumulative OTTI charge. The adoption was recognized as a cumulative effect adjustment that increased retained earnings and decreased accumulated other comprehensive income $247 thousand, net of tax of $155 thousand, as of April 1, 2009. As a result of implementing the new standard, the amount of OTTI recognized in income for the three month period ending June 30, 2009 was $488 thousand, net of tax. Had the standard not been issued, the amount of OTTI that would have been recognized in income for the period would have been $905 thousand, net of tax.

In April 2009, the FASB issued Staff Position (FSP) No. 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset and Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly. This FSP emphasizes that even if there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity, the objective of a fair value measurement remains the same. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants. The FSP provides a number of factors to consider when evaluating whether there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability in relation to normal market activity. In addition, when transactions or quoted prices are not considered orderly, adjustments to those prices based on the weight of available information may be needed to determine the appropriate fair value. The FSP also requires increased disclosures. This FSP is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, and shall be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The adoption of this FSP at June 30, 2009 did not have a material impact on the results of operations or financial position.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. 107-1 and APB 28-1, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments. This FSP amends FASB Statement No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies that were previously only required in annual financial statements. This FSP is effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of this FSP at June 30, 2009 did not have a material impact on the results of operations or financial position as it only required disclosures which are included in Note 4.


4. Fair Value

Statement 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The fair values of securities available for sale are usually determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1 inputs), or matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific

6

securities but rather by relying on the securities' relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs).

The Corporation's investment in collateralized debt obligations consisting of pooled Trust Preferred Securities which are issued by financial institutions were historically priced using Level 2 inputs. The decline in the level of observable inputs and market activity in this class of investments at the measurement date has been significant and resulted in unreliable external pricing. Broker pricing and bid/ask spreads, when available, has varied widely. The once active market has become comparatively inactive. As a result, these investments are now priced using Level 3 inputs.

The Corporation has developed an internal model for pricing these securities. Information such as historical and current performance of the underlying collateral, deferral/default rates, collateral coverage ratios, break in yield calculations, cash flow projections, liquidity and credit premiums required by a market participant, and financial trend analysis with respect to the individual issuing financial institutions, are utilized in determining individual security valuations. Discount rates were utilized along with the cash flow projections in order to calculate an appropriate fair value. These discount rates were calculated based on industry index rates and adjusted for various credit and liquidity factors. Due to current market conditions as well as the limited trading activity of these securities, the market value of the securities is highly sensitive to assumption changes and market volatility.


The fair value of impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses is generally based on recent real estate appraisals and collateral evaluations. The appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are typically significant and result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value under SFAS No. 157 on a recurring basis are summarized below:

(1) Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgement and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.


The methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value are described as follows:

Carrying amount is the estimated fair value for cash and cash equivalents, interest bearing deposits, accrued interest receivable and payable, demand deposits, short-term debt, and variable rate loans or deposits that reprice frequently and fully. The methods for determining the fair values for securities were described previously. For fixed rate loans or deposits and for variable rate loans or deposits with infrequent repricing or repricing limits, fair value is based on discounted cash flows using current market rates applied to the estimated life and credit risk. Fair value of debt is based on current rates for similar financing. It was not practicable to determine the fair value of FHLB stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability. The fair value of off-balance-sheet items is not considered material.


5. Business Combinations

Acquisition of Canton Bancorp, Inc.

On May 29, 2009, Chemung Financial Corporation acquired 100 percent of the outstanding shares of Canton Bancorp, Inc. As a result of the acquisition, Chemung Financial expects to enhance its relationship with the residents of northeastern Pennsylvania through its extensive menu of products and services, combined with its high touch approach to quality customer service. The Corporation also looks at the acquisition as an opportunity to market additional products and services to new customers, including a full menu of Trust and Investment services.

Under the terms of the agreement, each shareholder of Canton Bancorp, Inc. received a cash payout of $272 per share, totaling approximately $7.7 million. The total purchase price resulted in approximately $1.3 million in goodwill. Goodwill will not be amortized but instead evaluated periodically for impairment, consistent with current accounting standards. None of the goodwill recognized is expected to be

9

deductible for income tax purposes. Purchase accounting adjustments are subject to refinement as management finalizes their fair value measurements, including their analysis of indentifiable intangible assets. Any resulting goodwill after refinement of the purchase accounting adjustments will relate to the banking segment of the Corporation.

Net assets acquired at May 29, 2009 are shown in the table below (in thousands).

The gross contractual amount receivable of loans acquired, excluding those loans considered to be impaired, was $57.8 million, all of which is expected to be collected.

Canton Bancorp,Inc.'s results of operations have been reflected in Chemung Financial Corporation's consolidated statements of income beginning as of the acquisition date. As we merged the acquiree into the business operations of Chemung Canal Trust Company as of the acquisition date, it is not practicable to disclose the amount of revenue and earnings of the acquiree from the acquisition date through June 30, 2009 as the amounts cannot be readily determined.

7. Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income or loss of the Corporation represents net income plus other comprehensive income or loss, which consists of the net change in unrealized holding gains or losses on securities available for sale and the change in the funded status of the Corporation's defined benefit pension plan and other benefit plans, net of the related tax effect. Accumulated other comprehensive income or loss represents the net unrealized holding gains or losses on securities available for sale and the funded status of the Corporation's defined benefit pension plan and other benefit plans, as of the consolidated balance sheet dates, net of the related tax effect.

Comprehensive income for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2009 was $1,179,993 and $2,127,072, respectively. Comprehensive (loss) income for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2008 was $(1,484,796) and $877,366, respectively.

8. Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of operations, the Corporation engages in a variety of financial transactions that, in accordance with accounting principles generally

11

accepted in the United States of America, are not recorded in the financial statements. The Corporation is also a party to certain financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk such as commitments under standby letters of credit, unused portions of lines of credit and commitments to fund new loans. The Corporation's policy is to record such instruments when funded. These transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and liquidity risk. Such transactions are generally used by the Corporation to manage clients' requests for funding and other client needs.

Other-Than-Temporary-Impairment

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment ("OTTI") at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation. The investment securities portfolio is evaluated for OTTI by segregating the portfolio into two general segments and applying the appropriate OTTI model. Investment securities classified as available for sale or held-to-maturity are generally evaluated for OTTI under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. Certain purchased beneficial interests, which could include non-agency mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, and collateralized debt obligations, are evaluated using the model outlined in EITF Issue No.99-20, Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased Beneficial Interests and Beneficial Interests that Continue to be Held by a Transfer in Securitized Financial Assets.

In determining OTTI under the SFAS No. 115 model, management considers many factors, including: (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, (3) whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions, and (4) whether the entity has the intent to sell the debt security or more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery. The assessment of whether an other-than-temporary decline exists involves a high degree of subjectivity and judgment and is based on the information available to management at a point in time.

The second segment of the portfolio uses the OTTI guidance provided by EITF 99-20 that is specific to purchased beneficial interests. Under the EITF 99-20 model, the Corporation compares the present value of the remaining cash flows as estimated at the preceding evaluation date to the current expected remaining cash flows. An OTTI is deemed to have occurred if there has been an adverse change in the remaining expected future cash flows.

When OTTI occurs under either model, the amount of the OTTI recognized in earnings depends on whether an entity intends to sell the security or it is more likely than not it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, less any current-period credit loss. If an entity intends to sell or it is more likely than not it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, less any current-period credit loss, the OTTI shall be recognized in earnings equal to the entire difference between the investment's amortized cost basis and its fair value at the balance sheet date. If an entity does not intend to sell the security and it is not more likely than not that the entity will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis less any current-period loss, the OTTI shall be separated into the amount representing the credit loss and the amount related to all other factors. The amount of the total OTTI related to the credit loss is determined based on the present value of cash flows expected to be collected and is recognized in earnings. The amount of the total OTTI related to other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes. The previous amortized cost basis less the OTTI recognized in earnings becomes the new amortized cost basis of the investment.

As of June 30, 2009, the majority of the Corporation's unrealized losses in the investment securities portfolio related to four trust preferred securities held. Two of these securities are single issue trust preferred securities, both of which continue to be rated Baa1, which is defined as lower medium credit quality by Moody's. The combined market value of these two securities was $1.3 million with unrealized losses of $563 thousand at June 30, 2009. The Corporation continues to monitor these securities and believes there is no OTTI and does not have the intent to sell these securities and it is likely that it will not be required to sell the securities before their anticipated recovery.

The two other trust preferred securities held consist of investments in pooled trust preferred securities. The decline in fair value on these securities is primarily attributable to the financial crisis and resulting credit deterioration and financial condition of the underlying issuers, all of which are financial institutions. This deterioration may affect the future receipt of both principal and interest payments on these securities. This fact combined with the current illiquidity in the market makes it unlikely that the Corporation would be able to recover its investment in these securities if the securities were sold at this time.

14

Our analysis of these investments falls within the scope of EITF 99-20 and includes a total book value of $2.4 million of collaterlized debt obligations ("CDO's") consisting of pooled trust preferred securities. These securities were rated high quality at inception, but at June 30, 2009 Moody's rated these securities both as Caa3, which is defined as substantial risk of default. The Corporation uses the OTTI evaluation model to compare the present value of expected cash flows to the previous estimate to determine if there are adverse changes in cash flows during the quarter. The OTTI model considers the structure and term of the CDO and the financial condition of the underlying issuers. Specifically, the model details interest rates, principal balances of note classes and underlying issuers, the timing and amount of interest and principal payments of the underlying issuers, and the allocation of the payments to the note classes. The current estimate of expected cash flows is based on the most recent trustee reports and any other relevant market information including announcements of interest payment deferrals or defaults of underlying trust preferred securities. Assumptions used in the model include expected future default rates and prepayments. We assume no recoveries on defaults and treat all interest payment deferrals as defaults. Upon completion of the June 30, 2009 analysis, our model indicated other-than-temporary impairment on both of these securities, since both experienced additional defaults or deferrals of underlying issuers during the period. For the quarter, OTTI losses recorded as expense totaled $796 thousand. These two securities remained classified as available for sale and represented $1.1 million of the unrealized losses reported at June 30, 2009. Both securities continue to accrue interest and payments continue to be made as agreed.

The table below presents a rollforward of the cumulative credit losses recognized in earnings for the three-month period ended June 30, 2009:

12. Segment Reporting

The Corporation manages its operations through two primary business segments: core banking and trust and investment advisory services. The core banking segment provides revenues by attracting deposits from the general public and using such funds to originate consumer, commercial, commercial real estate, and residential mortgage loans, primarily in the Corporation's local markets and to invest in securities. The trust and investment advisory services segment provides revenues by providing trust and investment advisory services to clients.

Summarized financial information concerning the Corporation's reportable segments and the reconciliation to the Corporation's consolidated results is shown in the following table. Income taxes are allocated based on the separate taxable income of each entity and indirect overhead expenses are allocated based on reasonable and equitable allocations applicable to the reportable segment. Holding company amounts are the primary differences between segment amounts and consolidated totals, and are reflected in the Holding Company and Other column below, along with amounts to eliminate transactions between segments.

Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The review that follows focuses on the significant factors affecting the financial condition and results of operations of the Corporation during the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2009, with comparisons to the comparable periods in 2008, as applicable. The following discussion and the unaudited consolidated interim financial statements and related notes included in this report, should be read in conjunction with our 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 13, 2009. The results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire fiscal year or any other interim period.


Forward-looking Statements

This discussion contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Corporation intends its forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements in these sections. All statements regarding the Corporation's expected financial position and operating results, the Corporation's business strategy, the Corporation's financial plans, forecasted demographic and economic trends relating to the Corporation's industry and similar matters are forward-looking statements. These statements can sometimes be identified by the Corporation's use of forward-looking words such as "may," "will," "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," or "intend." The Corporation cannot promise that its expectations in such forward-looking statements will turn out to be correct. The Corporation's actual results could be materially different from expectations because of various factors, including changes in economic conditions or interest rates, credit risk, difficulties in managing our growth, competition, changes in the regulatory environment, and changes in general business and economic trends.


Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates and Risks and Uncertainties

Critical accounting policies include the areas where the Corporation has made what it considers to be particularly difficult, subjective or complex judgments in making estimates, and where these estimates can significantly affect the Corporation's financial results under different assumptions and conditions. The Corporation prepares its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. As a result, the Corporation is required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that it believes are reasonable based upon the information available. These estimates, judgments and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statement and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the periods presented. Actual results could be different from these estimates.

Management considers the accounting policy relating to the allowance for loan losses to be a critical accounting policy given the inherent uncertainty in evaluating the level of the allowance required to cover probable credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio, and the material effect that such judgments can have on the Corporation's results of operations. While management's current evaluation of the allowance for loan losses indicates that the allowance is adequate, under adversely different conditions or assumptions, the allowance would need to be increased. For example, if historical loan loss experience significantly worsened or if current economic conditions significantly deteriorated, additional provisions for loan losses would be required to increase the allowance. In addition, the assumptions and estimates used in the internal reviews of the Corporation's non-performing loans and potential problem loans, and the associated evaluation of the related collateral coverage for these loans, has a significant impact on the overall analysis of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Real Estate values in the Corporation's market area did not increase dramatically in the prior several years, and, as a result, any declines in Real Estate values have been modest. While management has concluded that the current evaluation of collateral values is reasonable under the circumstances, if collateral evaluations were significantly lowered, the Corporation's allowance for loan losses policy would also require additional provisions for loan losses.

Management also considers the accounting policy relating to other-than-temporary impairment of investment securities to be a critical accounting policy. The determination of whether a decline in market value is other-than-temporary is necessarily a matter of subjective judgment. The timing and amount of any realized losses reported in the Company's financial statements could vary if management's conclusions were to change as to whether an other-than-temporary impairment exists. In April 2009, the FASB issued Staff

18

Position (FSP) No. 115-2 and No. 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments, which amends existing guidance for determining whether impairment is other-than-temporary ("OTTI") for debt securities. The FSP requires an entity to assess whether it intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell a security in an unrealized loss position before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of these criteria is met, the entire difference between amortized cost and fair value is recognized through a charge to earnings. For those securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, such as those that management has determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired, the amount of impairment charged to earnings is limited to the amount related to credit losses, while impairment related to other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income. This FSP was adopted by the Corporation on April 1, 2009. Through the period ended March 31, 2009, the Corporation had recognized cumulative OTTI charges of $959 thousand on a collateralized debt obligation consisting of a pool of trust preferred securities issued by financial institutions. Upon adoption of this FSP, $402 thousand was reversed from the non-credit related portion of the cumulative OTTI charge, recognized as a cumulative effect adjustment that increased retained earnings and decreased accumulated other comprehensive income by $247 thousand, net of taxes. Following an updated impairment evaluation, an additional $131 thousand OTTI charge to earnings related to the credit loss component of this investment was recognized in the second quarter. Additionally, during the second quarter, it was determined that a second collateralized debt obligation consisting of a pool of trust preferred securities, for which no prior charges to earnings had been recognized, was other-than-temporarily impaired, resulting in a $665 thousand charge to earnings related to the credit loss component of this investment.


Financial Condition

Consolidated assets at June 30, 2009 totaled $950.7 million, an increase of $112.4 million or 13.4% since December 31, 2008. As discussed in greater detail below, this increase was due in large part to the Corporation's acquisition of Canton Bancorp, Inc. ("Canton") on May 29, 2009, as well as organic deposit growth, and is reflected principally in a $49.8 million increase in loans, net of deferred fees and costs and unearned income, and a $44.6 million increase in cash and cash equivalents, as well as increases in investment securities and other assets totaling $11.4 million and $5.3 million, respectively.

As noted above, total loans, net of deferred fees and costs and unearned income increased $49.8 million or 8.8% from December 31, 2008 to June 30, 2009, principally due to the acquisition of Bank of Canton loans totaling $57.3 million at quarter-end. The most significant growth was in commercial loans (including commercial mortgages), which increased $30.8 million, with $26.3 million of this increase associated with the Canton acquisition. Residential mortgages increased $10.8 million, including Canton mortgages totaling $16.5 million at June 30, 2009. Total consumer loans were up $8.2 million, principally due to a $9.1 million increase in home equity balances, as $11.6 million of home equity loans were acquired in the acquisition. Consumer installment loans were down $886 thousand as $2.8 million in Canton loans acquired were offset primarily by a reduced level of indirect automobile financing activity. As can be seen from the above, excluding the acquisition of Canton loans, residential mortgages and home equity balances would have decreased approximately $5.7 million and $2.5 million, respectively, due to a slowdown in activity and higher payoffs related to increased refinancing activity in the current low rate environment. Additionally, $8.3 million of newly originated mortgages were sold in the secondary market during the first six months of this year.


The composition of the loan portfolio is summarized as follows:

The available for sale segment of the securities portfolio totaled $199.0 million at June 30, 2009, an increase of $7.8 million or 4.1% from December 31, 2008. At amortized cost, the available for sale portfolio increased approximately $9.3 million, including approximately $4.8 million of bond balances related to the Canton acquisition, with unrealized appreciation related to the available for sale portfolio decreasing $1.5 million. The increase in the available for sale portfolio was principally due to an $11.4

19

million increase in municipal obligations and a $9.3 million increase in corporate bonds, partially offset by a $5.1 million decrease in federal agency bonds, as well as decreases in mortgage-backed securities and U.S. treasury bonds totaling $3.3 million and $2.5 million, respectively. During the first six months of this year, the Corporation purchased approximately $11.0 million of available for sale municipal bonds and acquired $1.4 million in the Canton acquisition. These increases were partially offset by municipal bond maturities and principal payments totaling $1.0 million. The increase in corporate bonds reflects purchases totaling $8.0 million and $1.7 million related to the Canton acquisition, partially offset by a bond maturity. The decrease in federal agency bonds was due to the fact that maturities and calls during the first half of this year totaling $44.0 million exceeded federal agency bond purchases totaling $36.8 million and the acquisition of $2.1 million of Canton agency bonds. Mortgage-backed securities decreased as paydowns during the first six months of this year exceeded purchases totaling $11.1 million. The decrease in U.S. treasury bonds reflects the sale of a $5.0 million treasury bond during the first quarter of this year, partially offset by a $2.5 million treasury bond purchase in the second quarter. The decrease in unrealized appreciation related to the available for sale portfolio was due in part to the above mentioned sale of a U.S. treasury bond, as well as decreases in unrealized gains on the Corporation's stock portfolio, an increase in unrealized losses on trust preferred securities, and decreases in unrealized gains on federal agency bonds and mortgage-backed securities. The held to maturity portion of the portfolio, consisting of local municipal obligations, increased approximately $3.6 million to $12.1 million at June 30, 2009.

As noted above, cash and cash equivalents increased $44.6 million since December 31, 2008. As discussed below, this increase reflects the significant increase in deposits since the beginning of this year related to both the Canton acquisition as well as organic deposit growth. With this growth in deposits exceeding the increase in net loans and securities, interest bearing deposits at other financial institutions increased $41.2 million, with the vast majority of these funds held in an interest bearing account at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. While we have purchased approximately $76.5 million of securities during the first half of this year, we continue to evaluate alternative investments of these funds with caution given the low interest rate environment and the inherent interest rate risk associated with longer term securities portfolio investments.

A $5.3 million increase in other assets was primarily due to acquiring $2.4 million of Bank Owned Life Insurance ("BOLI") in the Canton acquisition, as well as increases in net deferred tax assets and trust fees earned and not collected totaling $1.6 million and $1.2 million, respectively.

Since December 31, 2008, total deposits have increased $122.8 million or 18.7% from $656.9 million to $779.7 million, with $74.8 million of this increase associated with the Canton acquisition, and $48.0 million due to internal deposit growth. Non-interest bearing demand deposits increased $16.0 million, including newly acquired demand deposits totaling $8.6 million. A $106.8 million increase in interest bearing balances was reflected primarily in a $58.0 million increase in time deposits and a $23.8 million increase in insured money market ("IMMA") balances, as well as increases in savings and NOW balances totaling $15.3 million and $9.6 million, respectively. The increase in time deposits includes $52.0 million of time deposits acquired from Canton, with the increase in insured money market accounts due in large part to a $15.6 million increase in public fund balances, as well as an $8.2 million increase in other IMMA balances, including $2.3 million in IMMA deposits acquired from Canton. The increase in savings account balances reflects approximately $8.1 million in deposits acquired from Canton, as well as an increase in other savings balances of $7.2 million, while the increase in NOW accounts was due to a $4.5 million increase in public fund balances, $3.9 million in acquired deposits and other NOW account growth of $1.2 million.

Securities sold under agreements to repurchase decreased $8.3 million due to the payoff of a $10.0 million advance that matured during the second quarter.


A $3.1 million decrease in other liabilities is primarily due to the payment of previously accrued income taxes.


Asset Quality

Non-performing loans at June 30, 2009 totaled $11.971 million as compared to $4.544 million at December 31, 2008, an increase of $7.427 million. This increase was principally due to a $5.951 million increase in troubled debt restructurings, as well as a $1.687 million increase in non-accrual loans. The increase in troubled debt restructurings reflects the fact that during the second quarter commercial loans to one borrower totaling $6.310 million were restructured due to working capital and cash flow difficulties experienced by

20

the borrower. Loans to this borrower carry guarantees of the United States Department of Agriculture ("USDA") totaling $4.847 million, thereby reducing the Corporations exposure on these loans to $1.463 million. Excluding the guaranteed amount, non-performing loans would total $7.124 million. The increase in non-accrual loans was due in large part to non-accrual commercial loans acquired in the Canton acquisition totaling $1.144 million, as well as a $1.085 million increase in non-accrual residential mortgages, including $223 thousand of non-accrual mortgages acquired from Canton. These increases were principally offset by reductions in non-accrual consumer and home equity loans totaling $352 thousand and $28 thousand, respectively. A $211 thousand decrease in accruing loans 90 days or more past due was due to a decrease in this category of residential mortgage delinquencies as more mortgages were placed in non-accrual status during the first half of this year. An increase in Other Real Estate Owned ("OREO") of $355 thousand includes the addition of two properties acquired in the Canton acquisition totaling $340 thousand.

In addition to non-performing loans, as of June 30, 2009, the Corporation has identified commercial loan relationships totaling $12.3 million in potential problem loans, as compared to $10.0 million at December 31, 2008. This increase reflects the addition of $2.8 million of potential problem loans acquired in the Canton acquisition. Potential problem loans are loans that are currently performing, but where known information about possible credit problems of the related borrowers causes management to have serious doubts as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with the present loan repayment terms, and which may result in the disclosure of such loans as non-performing at some time in the future. At the Corporation, potential problem loans are typically loans that are performing but are classified in the Corporation's loan rating system as "substandard". Management cannot predict the extent to which economic conditions may worsen, or other factors which may impact borrowers and the potential problem loans. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that other loans will not become 90 days or more past due, be placed on non-accrual, become restructured, or require increased allowance coverage and provisions for loan losses.

Included in the Corporation's investment portfolio at June 30, 2009 are two collateralized debt obligations consisting of pools of trust preferred securities issued by other financial institutions. While we continue to receive all contractual payments on these securities, given the continued weakness in the economy, and the financial services sector in particular, there can be no assurance that these securities will not become non-performing at some future date.

Management's evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is performed on a periodic basis and takes into consideration such factors as the historical loan loss experience, review of specific problem loans (including evaluation of the underlying collateral), changes in the composition and volume of the loan portfolio, recent charge-off experience, overall portfolio quality, and current economic conditions that may affect the borrowers' ability to pay. Based upon an analysis of these factors, including an increase in net consumer loan charge-offs as discussed below, the Corporation expensed $375 thousand to the provision for loan losses during the second quarter of this year, an increase of $150 thousand compared to the corresponding period in 2008, with the year-to-date provision expense increasing $375 thousand from $425 thousand in 2008 to $800 thousand this year. At June 30, 2009, the Corporation's allowance for loan losses totaled $9.131 million, resulting in a coverage ratio of allowance to non-performing loans of 76.28%. However, excluding the aforementioned $4.847 USDA guaranteed portion of troubled debt restructurings, the coverage ratio would be 128.17%. This ratio as well as the ratio of allowance to total loans was also impacted by the Canton acquisition, as current accounting rules do not allow an acquirer to transfer the acquiree's allowance for loan

21

losses to the acquirer's balance sheet, while both non-performing and total loans include loans acquired. Rather, the acquiree's overall loan quality is considered as a component of the fair value of the loans acquired. Excluding loans acquired in the Canton acquisition, as well as the USDA guaranteed portion of the troubled debt restructurings, the allowance to non-performing loans ratio would be 161.3%. Similarly, at June 30, 2009, the allowance for loan losses to total loans was 1.48%, as compared to 1.61% as of December 31, 2008. Excluding loans acquired in the Canton acquisition, this ratio at June 30, 2009 would be 1.64%. The allowance for loan losses is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb probable loan losses on existing loans. Net loan charge-offs for the first half of 2009 totaled $775 thousand compared to $410 thousand in the first half of last year. This increase was due to increases in net consumer loan and residential mortgage charge-offs totaling $379 thousand and $14 thousand, respectively, partially offset by a $28 thousand improvement in net commercial loan charge-offs.


Activity in the allowance for loan losses was as follows:

Results of Operations

Second Quarter of 2009 vs. Second Quarter of 2008

Net income for the second quarter of 2009 totaled $695 thousand as compared to second quarter 2008 net income of $2.272 million, with earnings per share decreasing from $0.63 per share to $0.19 per share. This significant decrease in second quarter net income was due in large part to one-time costs associated with the Canton acquisition totaling $1.148 million, the imposition of a $440 thousand special FDIC insurance assessment and other-than-temporary impairment ("OTTI") charges of $796 thousand. The after-tax impact on net income of these items totaled approximately $1.462 million or $0.41 per share.

Net interest income increased $731 thousand or 9.7% from $7.558 million during the second quarter of 2008 to $8.289 million during the second quarter of 2009, with the net interest margin increasing 3 basis points to 4.00%. This improvement in net interest income and margin resulted principally from an increase in average earning assets and an 81 basis point decrease in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities, partially offset by a 59 basis point decrease in the average yield on earning assets. As compared to the second quarter of last year, average earning assets increased $64.9 million or 8.5%, with average fed funds sold and interest bearing deposits increasing $34.3 million, average investment securities up $18.2 million and average loans increasing $12.4 million. The increase in average loans was due to loans acquired in the Canton acquisition, which averaged $21.1 million during the second quarter of this year. While on average, earning assets increased 8.5%, total interest and dividend income was down $218 thousand or 1.9%, as the average yield on earning assets declined 59 basis points to 5.39%.

Total average funding liabilities, including non-interest bearing demand deposits, increased $61.4 million or 8.2% compared to second quarter 2008 averages, due to a $63.7 million increase in average deposits, offset by $2.3 million decrease in other borrowed funds. Approximately $26.5 million of the increase in average deposits was related to the Canton acquisition. In total, average non-interest bearing deposits increased $9.5 million, while average interest-bearing deposits increased $54.2 million. The increase in

22

average interest-bearing deposits was reflected primarily in higher average insured money market and time deposits of $20.7 million and $14.6 million, respectively. Additionally, average savings and NOW account balances increased $13.8 million and $5.0 million, respectively. The decrease in average other borrowings was due to a $10.5 million decrease in average short term borrowings under the Corporation's line of credit with the FHLB, somewhat offset by an $8.2 million increase in average securities sold under agreements to repurchase. While total interest-bearing liabilities increased $51.9 million or 8.8%, interest expense decreased $950 thousand or 24.9%, as the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 81 basis points from 2.60% to 1.79%.

As discussed more fully under the "Asset Quality" section of this report, a $150 thousand increase in the provision for loan losses as compared to the second quarter of 2008 was primarily due to higher net consumer loan charge-off's, and reflects management's evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses based upon a number of factors, including an analysis of historical loss factors, the evaluation of collateral, recent charge-off experience, overall credit quality, current economic conditions and loan growth.

Non-interest income during the second quarter of 2009 compared to the second quarter of last year decreased $730 thousand or 16.8% due principally to the above mentioned OTTI impairment charges totaling $796 thousand. The impairment charges are related to two collateralized debt obligations consisting of pools of trust preferred securities issued by financial institutions. One of these investments was initially determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired during the fourth quarter of 2008, with impairment charges of $803 thousand recognized in the fourth quarter of 2008, and an additional impairment charge of $156 thousand recognized in the first quarter of this year. Following an updated impairment evaluation in the second quarter of this year, an additional $131 thousand impairment charge to earnings was recognized on this investment. It was additionally determined in the second quarter that a second trust preferred pool was also other-than-temporarily impaired, resulting in a $665 thousand impairment charge to earnings being recognized on this investment in the second quarter. Despite the fact that we continue to receive all contractual payments on these securities, the impairment charges are based upon discounted cash flow analysis with several factors considered, including higher defaults and deferrals by the issuers of the underlying securities, assumed future default rates, downgrades by rating agencies and the continued weakness in the U.S. economy, and the financial services sector in particular. Excluding these impairment charges, all other non-interest income increased $66 thousand, principally due to a $402 thousand increase in Trust and Investment Center fee income, somewhat offset primarily by a $336 thousand decrease in credit card merchant earnings. The increase in Trust and Investment Center fee income was in large part due to higher estate fee accruals, partially offset by a reduction in other trust fees, directly related to the market decline since the second quarter of last year. The decrease in credit card merchant earnings was due to the sale of the Corporation's credit card merchant processing business in the fourth quarter of 2008. This decrease was however offset by a $330 thousand reduction in processing expenses related to this business.

Second quarter 2009 operating expenses increased $2.423 million or 29.1% from the comparable period last year, due in large part to the above mentioned one-time costs related to the Canton acquisition totaling $1.148 million and the $440 thousand FDIC special assessment. Specific items having the most significant impact on the total expense increase included a $668 thousand increase in FDIC insurance costs (including the special assessment), a $753 thousand increase in pension and other employee benefits, a $607 thousand increase in data processing costs and a $184 thousand increase in salaries and wages. The increase in pension and other employee benefits was principally due to a $639 thousand increase in periodic pension expense related in large part to a decrease in the fair value of plan assets impacted by the overall market decline during 2008, and a $141 thousand increase in health insurance costs. The increase in data processing expense includes $1.022 million related to early termination of Canton technology contracts, offset primarily by the aforementioned $330 thousand decrease in credit card merchant processing costs, while the increase in salaries and wages reflects merit increases over the past year as well as compensation costs related to the Canton acquisition.

A $995 thousand decrease in income tax expense and the decrease in the effective tax rate from 32.1% in the second quarter of 2008 to 10.0% in the second quarter of this year resulted from a decrease in pre-tax income as well as an increase in the relative percentage of tax-exempt income to pre-tax income.


Year-To Date 2009 vs. Year-To-Date 2008

Net income for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009 totaled $2.429 million, a decrease

23

of $1.985 million compared to the corresponding period in 2008. Earnings per share decreased from $1.23 per share to $0.67 per share. As was the case with second quarter 2009 results, this decrease was significantly impacted by one-time costs related to the Canton acquisition totaling $1.238 million, as well as the aforementioned $440 thousand special FDIC insurance assessment and OTTI charges totaling $952 thousand. The after-tax impact on net income of these items totaled approximately $1.613 million or $0.45 per share.

Net interest income increased $1.389 million or 9.5%, with the net interest margin decreasing 1 basis point to 3.97%. This improvement in net interest income resulted from an increase in average earning assets and a 92 basis point decrease in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities, offset to some extent by a 72 basis point decrease in the average yield on earning assets. As compared to the first six months of last year, average earning assets increased $75.6 million or 10.3%, with average fed funds sold and interest bearing deposits up $33.8 million, and average securities and loans increasing $26.4 million and $15.4 million, respectively. Approximately $10.6 million of the increase in average loans was related to the Canton acquisition. While on average, earning assets increased 10.3%, total interest and dividend income was down $637 thousand or 2.8%, as the average yield on earning assets was down 72 basis points to 5.41%.

Total average funding liabilities, including non-interest bearing demand deposits, increased $74.6 million or 10.4% compared to year-to-date 2008 averages, due to increases in average deposits and other borrowed funds of $68.1 million and $6.5 million, respectively. Approximately $13.3 million of the increase in average deposits was related to the Canton acquisition. In total, average non-interest bearing deposits increased $13.9 million, while average interest-bearing deposits increased $54.2 million. The increase in average interest-bearing deposits was reflected primarily in higher average insured money market and savings deposits of $28.0 million and $13.8 million, respectively. Additionally, average time deposit and NOW account balances increased $7.2 million and $5.1 million, respectively. The increase in average other borrowings was due to a $21.1 million increase in average securities sold under agreements to repurchase, offset by a $14.5 million decrease in short term borrowings under the Corporation's line of credit with the FHLB. While average interest-bearing liabilities increased $60.8 million or 10.8%, interest expense decreased $2.025 million or 25.8%, as the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 92 basis points from 2.80% to 1.88%.

As discussed more fully under the "Asset Quality" section of this report, a $375 thousand increase in the provision for loan losses as compared to the first six months of 2008 was primarily due to higher net consumer loan charge-off's, and reflects management's evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses based upon a number of factors, including an analysis of historical loss factors, the evaluation of collateral, recent charge-off experience, overall credit quality, current economic conditions and loan growth.

Non-interest income for the first half of 2009 was $1.237 million or 13.6% lower than the comparable period last year. This decrease was due in large part to a $952 thousand increase in OTTI charges recognized on two collateralized debt obligations consisting of pools of trust preferred securities issued by financial institutions, as discussed above. With the exception of these OTTI charges, all other non-interest income was down $285 thousand, principally due to a $670 thousand decrease in credit card merchant earnings related to the sale of the Corporation's credit card merchant processing business in the fourth quarter of 2008, which was offset by a $661 thousand reduction in processing costs associated with this business, as well as a $123 thousand decrease in revenue from the Corporation's equity investment in Cephas Capital Partners, LP. These decreases were offset principally by a $390 thousand increase in Trust and Investment Center fee income, as well as increases in gains on the sale of newly originated mortgages and check card interchange fee income totaling $111 thousand and $88 thousand, respectively.

Operating expenses for the first six months of this year increased $3.052 million or 18.3%, with $1.238 million of this increase related to the above mentioned one-time costs associated with the Canton acquisition, and a $440 thousand special FDIC assessment. As was the case with the second quarter operating expense increase, and for reasons discussed above, areas significantly impacting this increase include a $1.344 million increase in pension and other employee benefits, an $886 thousand increase in FDIC insurance (including the $440 thousand special assessment), a $273 thousand increase in data processing costs and a $477 thousand increase in salaries and wages. Additionally, a $121 thousand increase in year-to-date net occupancy costs was principally related to the Corporation's acquisition of three offices from Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company ("M&T"), which closed in March of 2008. These increases were somewhat offset primarily by a $129 thousand decrease in amortization of intangible assets, as during the first quarter

24

of 2008 the Corporation had accelerated the amortization of the intangible asset related to the purchase of trust relationships from Partners Trust Bank in light of the closing of a large account during that quarter.

The $1.290 million decrease in income tax expense and the decrease in the effective tax rate from 32.6% for the first half of 2008 to 25.83% for the first half of this year were primarily due to a decrease in pre-tax income, as well as an increase in the relative percentage of tax-exempt income to pre-tax income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity management involves the ability to meet the cash flow requirements of deposit customers, borrowers, and the operating, investing, and financing activities of the Corporation. The Corporation uses a variety of resources to meet its liquidity needs. These include short term investments, cash flow from lending and investing activities, core deposit growth and non-core funding sources, such as time deposits of $100,000 or more, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and other borrowings.

The Corporation is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York ("FHLB") which allows it to access borrowings which enhance management's ability to satisfy future liquidity needs. At June 30, 2009, the Corporation maintained a $165.7 million line of credit with the FHLB, as compared to $149.4 million at June 30, 2008.

During the first six months of 2009, cash and cash equivalents increased $44.6 million compared to an increase of $7.4 million during the first six months of last year. In addition to cash provided by operating activities, other major sources of cash during the first six months of 2009 included proceeds from sales, maturities and principal reductions on securities totaling $68.8 million, a $50.4 million increase in deposits and an $8.8 million decrease in loans. Proceeds from the above were used principally to fund purchases of securities totaling $76.4 million, an $8.3 million reduction in securities sold under agreements to repurchase and $7.7 million to purchase Canton Bancorp, Inc. In this transaction, the Corporation acquired approximately $59.0 million of loans, $10.5 million in cash and cash equivalents, $5.5 million of securities and other assets totaling approximately $4.8 million, and assumed deposits and other liabilities totaling $71.7 million and $553 thousand, respectively. Other significant uses of cash during the first six months of this year included the payment of cash dividends in the amount of $1.8 million and purchases of fixed assets totaling $1.3 million.

In addition to cash provided by operating activities, a major source of cash in the first six months of 2008, was the net cash received in the M&T branch acquisition totaling $43.5 million. The major factors netting to this included cash received for the deposits assumed totaling $64.6 million, which was offset primarily by the purchase of $12.6 million of loans, the payment of an $8.4 million premium for the deposits assumed, and the purchase of fixed assets totaling $120 thousand. Other primary sources of cash during the first six months of 2008 included proceeds from maturities and principal payments on securities totaling $53.0 million, a $33.5 million increase in securities sold under agreements to repurchase, an $18.7 million increase in other deposits and $1.0 million in net redemptions of FHLB and Federal

27

Reserve Bank stock. Proceeds from the above were used primarily to fund purchases of securities totaling $97.9 million, a $24.4 million net reduction of FHLB advances, an $18.5 million net increase in loans, payment of cash dividends totaling $1.8 million and the purchase of fixed assets in the amount of $1.3 million.

As of June 30, 2009, the Corporation's consolidated leverage ratio was 8.35%. The Tier I and Total Risk Adjusted Capital ratios were 11.01% and 12.55%, respectively. All of the above ratios are in excess of the requirements for being considered "well capitalized" by the FDIC, the Federal Reserve and the New York State Banking Department.

During the first six months of 2009, the Corporation declared cash dividends of $0.50 per share, unchanged from the dividends declared during the first six months of 2008.

When shares of the Corporation become available in the market, we may purchase them after careful consideration of our capital position. On November 19, 2008, the Corporation's Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 90,000 shares over a one year period, either through open market or privately negotiated transactions. During the first six months of 2009, the Corporation purchased 4,295 shares at an average price of $19.64 per share. As of June 30, 2009, a total of 13,431 shares had been purchased since the inception of the announced repurchase program. Additionally, during the first six months of 2009, 26,381 shares were re-issued from treasury to fund the stock component of directors' 2008 compensation, the stock component of an executive officer's 2008 bonus, a distribution under the Corporation's directors' deferred compensation plan and funding for the Corporation's profit sharing, savings and investment plan.


Interest Rate Risk

As intermediaries between borrowers and savers, commercial banks incur both interest rate risk and liquidity risk. The Corporation's Asset/Liability Committee ("ALCO") has the strategic responsibility for setting the policy guidelines on acceptable exposure to these areas. These guidelines contain specific measures and limits regarding these risks, which are monitored on a regular basis. The ALCO is made up of the president and chief executive officer, two executive vice presidents, chief financial officer, asset liability management officer, senior marketing officer, and others representing key functions.


The ALCO is also responsible for supervising the preparation and annual revisions of the financial segments of the annual budget, which is built upon the committee's economic and interest-rate assumptions. It is the responsibility of the ALCO to modify prudently the Corporation's asset/liability policies.

Interest rate risk is the risk that net interest income will fluctuate as a result of a change in interest rates. It is the assumption of interest rate risk, along with credit risk, that drives the net interest margin of a financial institution. For that reason, the ALCO has established tolerance limits based upon a 200-basis point change in interest rates. At June 30, 2009, it is estimated that an immediate 200-basis point decrease in interest rates would negatively impact the next 12 months net interest income by 7.97% and an immediate 200-basis point increase would negatively impact the next 12 months net interest income by 0.72%. Both are within the Corporation's policy guideline of 15% established by ALCO.

A related component of interest rate risk is the expectation that the market value of our capital account will fluctuate with changes in interest rates. This component is a direct corollary to the earnings-impact component: an institution exposed to earnings erosion is also exposed to shrinkage in market value. At June 30, 2009, it is estimated that an immediate 200-basis point decrease in interest rates would negatively impact the market value of our capital account by 11.24% and an immediate 200-basis point increase in interest rates would negatively impact the market value by 6.71%. Both are within the established tolerance limit of 15%.

Management does recognize the need for certain hedging strategies during periods of anticipated higher fluctuations in interest rates and the Board-approved Funds Management Policy provides for limited use of certain derivatives in asset liability management. These strategies were not employed during the first six months of 2009.

Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Information required by this Item is set forth herein in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations under the heading "Interest Rate Risk."


Item 4: Controls and Procedures

The Corporation's management, with the participation of our President and Chief Executive Officer, who is the Corporation's principal executive officer, and our Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer, who is the Corporation's principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Corporation's disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2009. Based upon that evaluation, the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Corporation's disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of June 30, 2009.

During the second fiscal quarter, there have been no changes in the Corporation's internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporation's internal control over financial reporting.
