PROSPECTUS
STOCKHOLDER DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT
AND STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
Orrstown Financial Services, Inc. ("Orrstown") hereby offers participation
in its Stockholder Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (the "Plan")
which is effective as of January 1, 2000. The Plan constitutes an amendment of
and successor to the current Dividend Reinvestment Plan of Orrstown which was
instituted in 1998 (the "1998 Plan") and which remains in effect until December
31, 1999. Each Participant in the 1998 Plan will automatically be enrolled in
the Plan. The Plan provides Participants with an opportunity to purchase
Orrstown's Common Stock (the "Shares") by reinvesting all or a portion of the
cash dividends paid on their Shares in additional Shares. The Plan also provides
Participants with a convenient and economical way to voluntarily purchase
additional shares through voluntary cash payments of not less than $100 per
payment nor more than $2,500 per quarter. Some of the significant features of
the Plan are:
o Participants may purchase Shares through the automatic reinvestment of
quarterly cash dividends on their Shares.
o Participants may make voluntary cash contributions to be applied to
the purchase of additional Shares.
o Participants must either be a registered owner or beneficial owner of
Shares to be eligible to participate. Participants may participate
with respect to all or a specified fixed number of their Shares.
o Brokerage commissions and other service charges will not be charged
for purchases made under the Plan.
o Participants may deposit Share certificates held by them and
registered in their names into the Plan and thereby avoid the need for
safekeeping of certificates.
o To fulfill requirements for the Plan, Shares will be purchased in the
open market as available or directly from Orrstown.
o A beneficial owner of Shares held through a broker or other nominee
name may participate in the Plan either by making an appropriate
arrangement with the nominee or by having the Shares transferred and
registered in the beneficial owner's name.
Participation in the Plan is voluntary. Participants may terminate their
participation at any time. Shareholders who do not choose to participate in the
Plan will continue to receive cash dividends, as declared, in the usual manner.

THE COMPANY
Orrstown Financial Services, Inc. ("Orrstown") is a one-bank holding
company incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
Orrstown's principal subsidiary, Orrstown Bank (the "Bank"), is a
state-chartered bank and trust company having its administrative offices in
Shippensburg, Pennsylvania. The Bank has seven branch offices located in
Cumberland and Franklin Counties, and engages in commercial banking and trust
services. This involves accepting demand, time and savings deposits and granting
consumer, commercial, real estate and business loans to individuals,
corporations, partnerships, municipalities and other governmental bodies.
Through its trust department, the Bank renders services as trustee, executor,
administrator, guardian, managing agent and custodian and conducts other
fiduciary activities authorized by law.
Orrstown's corporate office is located at 77 East King Street,
Shippensburg, Pennsylvania 17257; its telephone number is (717) 532-6114.
THE PLAN
The following questions and answers explain Orrstown's Stockholder Dividend
Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (the "Plan"). The Plan constitutes an
amendment of and successor to the current Dividend Reinvestment Plan of Orrstown
which was instituted in 1998 (the "1998 Plan")
PURPOSE
1. What is the purpose of the Plan?
The 1998 Plan was adopted by Orrstown's Board of Directors on March 19,
1998 in order to provide holders of Orrstown's Common Stock with a simple,
convenient and systematic method of investing cash dividends in additional
shares of Orrstown's Common Stock ("Shares") without payment of any brokerage
commission. Orrstown's Board of Directors amended the 1998 Plan on September 16,
1999 to remove the minimum participation requirement and include a method for
investing voluntary cash contributions in additional Shares. Purchases of
additional Shares pursuant to the Plan directly from Orrstown, in contrast to
4
<PAGE>
purchases of additional Shares effected on the open market, will provide
Orrstown with additional capital to be used for general corporate purposes.
PARTICIPATION
2. Who is eligible to participate?
You may participate in the Plan if you qualify as either of the following:
(a) you are a "registered holder," a shareholder whose Shares are registered in
the stock transfer books of Orrstown in your own name; or (b) you are a
"beneficial owner," a shareholder who has beneficial ownership of Shares that
are registered in a name other than your name (for example, in the name of a
broker, bank or other nominee). Registered holders may participate in the Plan
directly. If you are not a registered holder, you must either become a
registered holder by having your Shares transferred into your own name, or you
must make arrangements with your broker, bank or other nominee to participate in
the Plan on your behalf. Most major brokers, banks and other nominees will make
such arrangements on request. See Question 6.
Your right to participate in the Plan is not transferable to another person
apart from a transfer of your underlying Shares.
Persons who reside in jurisdictions in which it is unlawful for Orrstown to
permit participation in the Plan are not eligible to participate in the Plan. In
addition, the securities or blue sky laws of certain states may require Shares
which may be sold under the Plan to be registered under those laws or may
require Orrstown to take certain other actions to enable Shares to be sold under
the Plan in those states. Orrstown reserves the right, in its sole discretion,
to elect not to register Shares or not to take other actions necessary to enable
Shares to be issued sold under the Plan in such states, in which case, persons
residing in such states will not be able to participate in the Plan.
Orrstown reserves the right to exclude from participation in the Plan
persons who utilize the Plan to engage in short-term trading or arbitrage
activities. Although Orrstown has no present intention regarding the exclusion
of persons from participating in the Plan who utilize it to engage in short-term
trading or other arbitrage activities, it reserves the right to do so if it
encounters a pattern of trading that it considers abusive or objectionable.
BENEFITS AND DISADVANTAGES
3. What are the benefits and disadvantages of the Plan?
The primary benefits of the Plan are:
5
<PAGE>
o You may have the cash dividends on all or a portion of your Shares
reinvested automatically in additional Shares of Orrstown's Common
Stock.
o You pay no brokerage commissions or service charges in connection with
your purchases under the Plan. See Question 26.
o Your reinvested cash dividends will be fully invested because the Plan
provides for fractional Shares to be credited to your account.
Additionally, dividends on such fractional shares, as well as on whole
Shares participating in the Plan, will be reinvested automatically in
additional Shares and credited to your Plan account.
o You may also invest in additional shares by making voluntary cash
contributions subject to an individual minimum limit of $100 and
maximum limit of $2,500 per quarter,
o You will avoid cumbersome safekeeping of stock certificates for Plan
Shares credited to your account. You also may deposit in the Plan
Shares held by you and registered in your name, thereby avoiding the
need for safekeeping of certificates.
o Periodic statements reflecting all current activity, including Shares
purchased and latest Plan account balance, will simplify your record
keeping.
The primary disadvantages of the Plan are:
o Due to the Pricing Period (as defined herein), the Purchase Price (as
defined herein) for Shares purchased through the Plan may exceed (or
be less than) the price of acquiring Shares (including transaction
costs) on the open market on the applicable Investment Date. See
Questions 8 and 10.
o There may be delays between a Participant's instruction to sell Plan
Shares and the sale date. There may also be delays in receiving Shares
withdrawn from the Plan. See Questions 18 and 120
o Participants who reinvest cash dividends will be treated for federal
income tax purposes as having received a dividend payment, giving rise
to a tax payment obligation without providing the Participant with
immediate cash to pay such tax when it becomes due. See Question 22.
o Participants will not know the actual number of Shares purchased under
the Plan until after the Pricing Period. See Questions 10 and 11.
o Shares deposited in a Plan account may not be pledged. See Question
24.
Neither Orrstown or the Administrator can assure a profit or protect
against a loss on Shares purchased under the Plan.

<PAGE>
ADMINISTRATION AND INTERPRETATION
4. Who will administer and interpret the Plan?
The Plan will be administered by Orrstown Bank or such successor
administrator as Orrstown may designate (the "Administrator"). The Administrator
acts as agent for Participants, keeps records of Participants' accounts, sends
regular account statements to Participants, and performs other duties relating
to the Plan. Shares purchased for each Participant under the Plan, and Shares
deposited with the Administrator for safekeeping as described in Question 17,
will be held by the Administrator on behalf of the Participants, unless and
until a Participant requests that a stock certificate for his or her Shares be
issued, as described in Question 16. The Administrator also serves as dividend
disbursement agent, transfer agent and registrar for the Common Stock.
Communications with the Administrator should be directed as follows:
Orrstown Bank
77 East King Street
Shippensburg, PA 17257
Attn: Shareholder Services
By telephone, call (717) 532-6114.
When corresponding with the Administrator, we suggest that you give your
daytime telephone number and area code.
Orrstown has the right to establish procedures for administration of the
Plan and to interpret the terms and conditions of the Plan. Its procedures and
interpretations will be final, conclusive and binding.
ENROLLMENT
5. How do I become a Participant?
If you are enrolled in the 1998 Plan, you will begin to participate
automatically in the Plan when it becomes effective January 1, 2000.
If you are a registered holder and not enrolled in the 1998 Plan, you may
enroll in the Plan and become a Participant by completing and signing an
Authorization Form (enclosed herewith) and returning it to the Administrator at
the address set forth in Question 4. An additional Authorization Form may be
obtained at any time from the Administrator. If you have your Common Stock
registered in more than one name (e.g., joint tenants, trustees), all registered
7
<PAGE>
holders of such Shares must sign the Authorization Form exactly as their names
appear on the account registration.
If you are a beneficial owner but not a record holder of Common Stock, you
must instruct your broker, bank or other nominee in whose name your Shares are
held to participate in the Plan on your behalf.
You may enroll in the Plan at any time. Once enrolled, you remain enrolled
without further action on your part until you discontinue your participation or
until the Plan is terminated. See Question 20 regarding withdrawal from the Plan
and Question 30 regarding termination of the Plan. However, if there is any
subsequent change in the manner in which your name appears on your
certificate(s), you must sign another Authorization Form, and execute a stock
power form to change the registration of your Plan account, in order to continue
participation.
6. What are the participation options and what does the Authorization Form
provide?
The Authorization Form appoints the Administrator as your agent for
purposes of the Plan. It may also direct Orrstown to pay to the Administrator,
for the purchase of additional Shares, all of the cash dividends on (a) the
specified number of Shares owned by you on the applicable Record Date and
designated by you to be included in the Plan ("Participating Shares"), and (b)
all whole and fractional Shares which have been credited to your Plan account.
Shares in your Plan account, other than Shares deposited with the Administrator
solely for safekeeping as described in Question 17 ("Safekeeping Shares") are
referred to as "Plan Shares." The Authorization Form also may direct the
Administrator to reinvest automatically all subsequent dividends on Plan Shares.
Cash dividends will continue to be reinvested on the number of Participating
Shares and on all Plan Shares (but not on Safekeeping Shares) until the
Participant specifies otherwise or terminates participation, or the Plan is
terminated.
The Authorization Form provides for the purchase of Shares through the
investment options described below.
The investment options are as follows:
(1) "Full Dividend Reinvestment"
This option directs the Administrator to invest in accordance with the
Plan all cash dividends on all Shares then or subsequently owned by
you, and also all cash dividends on your whole and fractional Plan
Shares.
(2) "Partial Dividend Reinvestment"
This option directs the Administrator to invest in accordance with the
Plan all cash dividends on that number of whole Shares held by you
which are designated in the appropriate space on the Authorization
Form and on all whole and fractional Plan Shares. This option should
8
<PAGE>
be used if you wish to reinvest dividends on some but not all of the
shares of Orrstown's Common Stock that you own. If this option is
selected, you will continue to receive cash dividends in the usual
manner on all Shares registered in your name or beneficially owned by
you but which you have not designated for participation in the Plan.
It is recommended that nominee firms holding Shares in their own
firm's street name (i.e., Shares not held for the firm by Depository
Trust Company or some other depository) use this option, even if they
wish to participate with respect to all of the Common Stock they own
at the time of enrollment.
(3) "Voluntary Cash Contributions"
This option permits you to make voluntary cash contributions and
directs the administrator to apply such contributions toward the
purchase of additional shares in accordance with the Plan.
You may select either "Full Dividend Reinvestment" or "Partial Dividend
Reinvestment". In order to make "Voluntary Cash Contributions", you must also
have elected to make either one or the other of the partial dividend
reinvestment or full dividend reinvestment options. In each case, cash dividends
on all Participating Shares, including all Plan Shares added from time to time
and held in your Plan account, will be reinvested, until you specify otherwise
or withdraw from the Plan altogether, or until the Plan is terminated. See
Question 20 regarding notification of withdrawal to the Administrator. See
Question 28 regarding provisions on Shares issued in stock splits or stock
dividends and stock acquired on the exercise of rights.
If you return a properly executed Authorization Form to the Administrator
without electing an investment option, you will be enrolled as having selected
Full Dividend Reinvestment.
If you own Shares of record and also beneficially through one or more
brokers, banks or other nominees, each such holding will be treated as a
separate holding for purposes of authorizing participation in the Plan. To
participate in the Plan for all of your holdings, separate Authorization Forms
should be submitted by you individually for your record holdings and by each
such nominee for your beneficial holdings with it.
7. When will participation in the Plan begin?
Participation as to dividend reinvestment will begin with the next Dividend
Payment Date after the Administrator's receipt of the Authorization Form,
provided it is received by the Administrator by the Record Date for the
applicable cash dividend. The "Record Date" is the date used by Orrstown for
determining who are the stockholders of record for the purpose of receiving any
cash dividend.
Participation as to voluntary cash contributions will begin with the next
Investment Date (as defined in Question 8), provided that authorization
9
<PAGE>
therefore and the funds to be invested are received by the fifth day preceding
the Dividend Payment Date. Should the authorization (or the funds to be
invested) arrive after the time indicated above, the funds will be returned to
the Participant.
PURCHASES
8. When will Shares be purchased under the Plan?
Purchases from Orrstown of treasury shares or authorized but unissued
Shares will be made on the relevant Investment Date.
Purchases on the open market or in negotiated transactions will be made and
completed within a ten (10) trading day period commencing on the applicable
Dividend Payment Date (the first such day being the "Investment Date"), except
where completion at a later date is necessary or advisable under applicable
federal securities laws.
There can be no assurance as to the declaration or payment of dividends and
nothing contained in the Plan obligates Orrstown to declare or pay any
dividends. The Plan does not represent a change in Orrstown's dividend policy or
a guarantee of future dividends, which will continue to be determined by the
Board of Directors based upon Orrstown's earnings, financial condition and other
factors.
9. What is the source of Shares to be purchased under the Plan?
Shares purchased through the Plan may be (a) newly issued or treasury
Shares purchased directly from Orrstown, (b) Shares purchased through routine
open market transactions or (c) Shares acquired by a combination of such
methods. Orrstown will determine the source of the Plan purchases, which may
vary from time to time.
10. At what price will Shares be purchased?
All Shares purchased through the Plan directly from Orrstown will be
acquired at a price to you (the "Purchase Price") equal to the average of the
daily high bid and low offer quotations for Orrstown's Common Stock reported
through the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.'s OTC Bulletin
Board service for the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the applicable
Investment Date (the "Pricing Period"). If, however, no bid or no offer
quotation for Orrstown's Common Stock is reported through the OTC Bulletin Board
service during the Pricing Period, then the Purchase Price will be the price of
the last trade reported for Orrstown's Common Stock through the OTC Bulletin
Board service.
In the event Orrstown's Common Stock subsequently becomes listed for
trading on the NASDAQ Stock Market, the Purchase Price will be the mean between
the high and low sales prices for Orrstown's Common Stock on the NASDAQ Stock
Market, as reported in the financial press, on any relevant date. If Orrstown's
Common Stock subsequently becomes listed for trading on a national exchange, the
10
<PAGE>
Purchase Price will be the mean between the high and low sales price for
Orrstown's Common Stock on such exchange, as reported in the financial press, on
any relevant date.
All Shares purchased under the Plan through open market purchases will be
acquired on the applicable Investment Date at a price to you (the "Purchase
Price") equal to the weighted average of the prices actually paid for the Shares
purchased by the Plan through such open market purchases.
Although Orrstown will pay all brokerage fees on Shares purchased on the
open market, for tax purposes these fees will be considered as additional
dividend income to you. See Question 22. These fees, and the resulting
additional dividend income, are not expected to be substantial.
11. How many Shares will be purchased for Participants?
The number of shares that will be purchased for a Participant's Plan
account will depend on the amount of cash dividends reinvested on behalf of the
Participant and the applicable Purchase Price of the Shares purchased. A
Participant's Plan account will be credited with that number of shares
(including any fraction of a share computed to four (4) decimal places) that
results from dividing the amount of cash dividends reinvested by the applicable
Purchase Price. For purposes of this computation, the amount of a Participant's
cash dividends will include cash dividends payable on all Participating Shares
and on all Plan Shares.
12. How are open-market purchases of Shares effected?
In connection with open-market purchases of Shares pursuant to the Plan,
the Administrator will transfer the cash dividends to be reinvested to an
independent purchasing agent (the "Purchasing Agent"). The Purchasing Agent will
be a broker-dealer registered under the Exchange Act, as selected by Orrstown's
Board of Directors from time to time, who is unaffiliated with Orrstown. Aside
from transferring funds to the Purchasing Agent, neither Orrstown or the
Administrator will have any influence on the manner, methods or timing of
purchases of Shares on the open-market.
VOLUNTARY CASH CONTRIBUTIONS
13. Who will be eligible to make Voluntary Cash Contributions?
All record holders of shares of Common Stock who elect to have dividends
reinvested in accordance with provisions of the Plan may also elect to make
Voluntary Cash Contributions.
14. What are the limitations on Voluntary Cash Contributions?
To be applied to the purchase of Shares on any given Investment Date,
Voluntary Cash Contributions must be received by the Administrator no later than
the fifth day preceding the Dividend Payment Date (the "Cash Due Date").
Voluntary Cash Contributions may not be less than $100, up to a maximum of
11
<PAGE>
$2,500 in any quarter. Orrstown reserves the right in its sole discretion to
determine whether Voluntary Cash Contributions are made on behalf of a
particular Participant.
15. How does the voluntary cash contribution option work?
A Voluntary Cash Contribution may be made by enclosing a check or money
order with the Authorization Form (for new participants) or by forwarding a
check or money order to the Administrator with a payment form which will be sent
to Participants with each statement of account. Checks and money orders should
be made payable to Orrstown Bank and should include the Participant's social
security number or taxpayer identification number.
Any Voluntary Cash Contribution received on or before the Cash Due Date but
no earlier than twenty (20) days prior to the relevant Dividend Payment Date,
will be applied to the purchase of Shares within a ten (10) trading day period
commencing with the Dividend Payment Date (the first such day being the
"Investment Date") at a price determined in accordance with provisions of the
Plan (see Question 10). Voluntary Cash Contributions made by check or other
draft will not be applied to the purchase of Shares on or for such Investment
Date unless such check or draft has cleared prior to such Investment Date. A
Participant may obtain the return of any Voluntary Cash Contribution upon
request received by the Administrator on or before the second business day prior
to the Investment Date on which it is to be invested. Interest will not be paid
on Voluntary Cash Contributions pending investment. Accordingly, you should send
your Voluntary Cash Contribution to arrive shortly before the Cash Due Date.
All Shares purchased through Voluntary Cash Contributions will
automatically become Plan Shares and future cash dividends on such Shares will
be reinvested through the Plan.
You should be aware that because investments under the Plan are made as of
specified dates, you lose any advantage that might otherwise be available from
being able to select the timing of your investment.
CERTIFICATES
16. Will certificates be issued for Share purchases?
All Plan Shares and all Common Stock deposited for safekeeping with the
Administrator pursuant to Question 17 will be held together by the
Administrator. This service protects against the loss, theft and destruction of
certificates. Upon written request, the Administrator will have certificates
issued and delivered to you for any whole Shares credited to your account.
Certificates will be issued only in the same names as those enrolled in the
Plan. In no event will certificates for fractional Shares be issued.
17. May a Participant add Shares to his or her account by transferring
stock certificates that the Participant possesses?
12
<PAGE>
You may send to the Administrator for safekeeping all the Common Stock
certificates which you hold. Shares of Common Stock deposited with the
Administrator for safekeeping which are not Participating Shares are referred to
as "Safekeeping Shares." The Plan will hold the Shares purchased for a
Participant, and any Shares deposited by the Participant with the Plan for
safekeeping, until the Participant terminates participation in the Plan. The
safekeeping of Shares offers the advantage of protection against loss, theft or
inadvertent destruction of certificates as well as convenience if and when
Shares are sold through the Plan. All Shares represented by such certificates
will be kept in safekeeping in "book entry" form and will be combined with any
full and fractional Shares then held by the Plan for the Participant. All
dividends on Shares held by the Plan under the safekeeping service, which Shares
have been designated as Participating Shares, will be reinvested for the
Participant. All dividends on Safekeeping Shares will be paid to the Participant
in cash, and will not be reinvested through the Plan.
To deposit certificates for Common Stock for safekeeping under the Plan,
you must transmit the certificates to the Administrator. Stock certificates as
well as all written inquiries about the safekeeping service should be directed
to the Administrator. See Question 4. The Participant will bear the risk of the
means of transmission selected. It is recommended that certificates be sent by
registered mail or a reliable courier service.
Certificates for either Participating Shares or Safekeeping Shares that
have been deposited with the Administrator may be withdrawn by the Participant
by submitting a written request to the Administrator.
SALE OF SHARES
18. Can Participants sell Shares held under the Plan?
You may, by written instructions, request the Administrator to transfer to
a person designated by you or place a sale order on your behalf for some or all
of your Plan Shares or your Safekeeping Shares and will remit to you a check for
the proceeds of such sale, less your Share of brokerage commissions, service
charges and any applicable taxes. Shares will be sold within seven (7) business
days after the Administrator's receipt of your written notice in routine open
market transactions at then current market prices in transactions carried out
through one or more brokerage firms.
This procedure for selling Shares may be particularly attractive to holders
of small amounts of the Common Stock, because the Plan can combine odd lots and
small numbers of Shares into larger blocks to be sold, and thereby take
advantage of lower brokerage costs than might otherwise be available to
individual Participants in the sale of their Shares.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if there are any legal restrictions or
limitations on a Participant's right to sell Shares publicly (e.g., because the
Participant is a controlling person of Orrstown), the Administrator will not be
obligated to sell such Shares.
13
<PAGE>
REPORTS
19. What reports will be sent to Participants?
Unless you are participating in the Plan through your broker, bank or other
nominee, you will receive from the Administrator a detailed statement of your
Plan account following each dividend payment and account transaction. These
detailed statements will show total cash dividends received, total Shares
purchased (including fractional Shares), the Purchase Price of each Share, and
the total Shares held by you in the Plan. These statements should be retained by
you to determine your tax cost basis for Shares purchased. If you are
participating in the Plan through your broker or other nominee, you should
contact such entity regarding a statement of your interests in the Plan.
As a stockholder of Orrstown, you also will continue to receive copies of
all material sent to stockholders including, without limitation, quarterly and
annual reports and the notice of annual meeting and proxy statement.
WITHDRAWAL
20. How may Participants withdraw from the Plan?
You may withdraw from the Plan by giving written notice to the
Administrator and, thereafter, all dividends will be sent to you or to the
nominee through which your Shares are held. If your written notice of withdrawal
is received by the Administrator later than five (5) days prior to a Record Date
and on or before the ensuing Investment Date, such withdrawal will not be
effective until dividends for such Record Date have been reinvested and Shares
credited to your Plan account. Upon withdrawal, stock certificates for any whole
Shares will be issued in the Participant's name or, upon written direction,
Shares will be sold for the Participant. See Questions 16 and 18. Any fractional
Shares held in the Plan at the time of withdrawal will be converted to cash on
the basis of the then current market price of the Common Stock (determined in
accordance with the procedures described in response to Question 10 in
connection with determining the Purchase Price of Shares purchased directly from
Orrstown) on the date the Participant's written notice of withdrawal is received
by the Administrator.
21. Will participation end automatically on the Participant's death or
incompetence?
Participation in the Plan will not terminate automatically upon the death
or incompetence of the Participant, even if Orrstown or the Administrator is
aware of such event. However, the Participant's legal representative or
successor may terminate further participation in the Plan at any time.
14
<PAGE>
FEDERAL TAXES
22. What are the principal federal income tax consequences of participating
in the Plan?
A Participant will be treated as having received dividend income equal to
the aggregate Purchase Price on the Investment Date of Shares acquired directly
from Orrstown with reinvested dividends on the Participant's Participating
Shares. In the case of Shares acquired on the open market with reinvested
dividends, a Participant will be treated as having received dividend income
equal to the aggregate Purchase Prices of the Shares, plus the Participant's
share of any broker fees paid by Orrstown. Thus, a Participant recognizes
dividend income even though these amounts are not actually received by the
Participant in cash, but are applied to the purchase of Shares for the
Participant's Plan account. In the case of corporate Shareholders, dividends
received under the Plan may be eligible for the dividends-received deduction.
A Participant's tax basis in the Shares acquired with reinvested dividends
will include any amount the Participant is treated as having received as a
dividend. The holding period for such Shares will begin the day after the date
that the Shares are purchased.
When a Participant receives certificates for whole Shares that were
credited to the Participant's Plan account, the Participant will not realize any
taxable income. However, a Participant who receives a cash adjustment for a
fraction of a Share may realize gain or loss with respect to such fraction equal
to the difference between the cash adjustment and the Participant's tax basis in
such fraction. Gain or loss also may be realized by the Participant when whole
Shares are sold, either pursuant to the Participant's request, upon withdrawal
from the Plan or by the Participant after withdrawal from the Plan. The amount
of such gain or loss will be the difference between the amount realized by the
Participant for the Shares and the Participant's tax basis in the Shares. Such
gain or loss generally will be capital gain or loss if the Shares disposed of
were held as capital assets by the Participant, and will be long-term capital
gain or loss if the Shares disposed of were held for more than one year at the
date of sale.
A Participant (other than certain exempt stockholders who establish the
exemption to the Administrator's satisfaction, including, among others, all
corporations and certain foreign individuals and entities) may be subject to 31%
backup withholding on dividend income or proceeds from the sale of fractional or
whole Shares held in the Plan unless the Participant provides to the
Administrator its federal taxpayer identification number or social security
number (TIN). Backup withholding may also apply if the IRS notifies Orrstown of
under-reporting of interest or dividend income by the Participant. If backup
withholding is required on dividend income, the Administrator will reinvest
dividends net of the amount of tax withheld. In order to avoid backup
withholding, a Participant must provide the Administrator with the Participant's
correct TIN on Form W-9 or a substitute Form W-9 provided by the Administrator
(or Form W-8, Certificate of Foreign Status, with respect to certain foreign
Participants). Copies of these forms may be obtained from the Administrator.
15
<PAGE>
In the case of those foreign Participants whose dividends are subject to
U.S. income tax withholding, the amount of tax to be withheld will be deducted
from the amount of dividends available to be reinvested under the Plan.
The foregoing discussion is a summary of the principal federal income tax
consequences of participating in the Plan and does not constitute tax advice.
This summary is based on the current state of federal law and does not take into
account possible changes in such law. Any such changes may have retroactive
effect and may adversely affect the discussion in this summary. This summary
does not address the special tax consequences that may be applicable to certain
Participants subject to special tax treatment (including tax-exempt
organizations, broker dealers, and foreign Shareholders). Participants should
consult with their own tax advisors for further information with respect to the
federal, foreign, state or local tax consequences of participation in the Plan.
OTHER PROVISIONS
23. What happens if a Participant disposes of or acquires additional
Shares?
If a Participant has elected the Full Dividend Reinvestment option under
the Plan (see Question 6) and subsequently sells or transfers all or any part of
the Shares registered in the Participant's name, automatic dividend reinvestment
will continue as long as there are Shares registered in the name of the
Participant or held for the Participant in the Plan by the Administrator or
until termination of enrollment. Similarly, if a Participant has elected the
Full Dividend Reinvestment option under the Plan and subsequently acquires
additional Shares registered in the Participant's name, dividends paid on such
Shares will automatically be reinvested until termination of enrollment or until
other instructions are given. If, however, a Participant has elected the Partial
Dividend Reinvestment option and subsequently acquires additional Shares which
are registered in the Participant's name, dividends on such additional Shares
will not be reinvested automatically under the Plan unless the Participant
subsequently enrolls such Shares under the Plan. (See Question 6.) If a
Participant has elected the Partial Dividend Reinvestment option and sells
Shares, reinvestment will continue on the full number of Participating Shares as
long as the Participant owns at least the number of Participating Shares
previously specified, or on the number of Shares the Participant continues to
own, if the Participant owns less than the number previously specified.
24. May Shares in the Plan be pledged?
Shares in the Plan may not be pledged and any purported pledge will be
void. If you wish to pledge such Shares, you must first withdraw them from the
Plan.
25. How will a Participant's Shares be voted?
In connection with the exercise of Shareholder voting rights, each
Participant will receive proxy materials enabling the Participant to vote the
Shares held by the Participant directly and the whole Shares held for the
16
<PAGE>
Participant's account by the Administrator. All whole Shares held by the
Administrator will be voted by the Administrator as designated by the
Participant on the proxy card. Fractional shares may not be voted. If a
Participant does not vote by proxy or in person and does not otherwise instruct
the Plan to the contrary, Shares held for the Participant's account by the
Administrator will not be voted.
If the Participant owns Shares of Orrstown's Common stock that are not
deposited with the Administrator, the Participant may vote those Shares in the
normal manner, even if they are Participating Shares; the Administrator will not
be involved in the voting of such Shares.
26. Who pays the expenses of the Plan?
There are no brokerage commissions or service charges on Shares purchased
directly from Orrstown for a Participant's account. Brokerage fees on Shares
purchased on the open market for a Participant's account will be paid by
Orrstown and, for tax purposes, these fees will be considered as additional
dividend income to the Participants. All costs of administering the Plan will be
paid by Orrstown, except as stated below and except for brokerage commissions in
connection with sales under the Plan and the costs of any broker, bank or other
nominee (other than the Administrator) which holds Shares on behalf of a
Participant. When full or fractional Shares are sold for a Participant's
account, the Plan will first deduct any applicable brokerage commissions and
taxes before remitting the balance to the Participant.
27. What are the responsibilities of Orrstown and the Administrator under
the Plan?
Neither Orrstown nor the Administrator has any duties, responsibilities or
liabilities except those expressly set forth in the Plan, or as imposed by
applicable legal requirements including, without limitation, the federal
securities laws.
THE PARTICIPANT SHOULD RECOGNIZE THAT NEITHER ORRSTOWN OR THE ADMINISTRATOR
CAN ASSURE A PROFIT OR PROTECT AGAINST A LOSS ON THE SHARES PURCHASED OR SOLD
FOR A PARTICIPANT UNDER THE PLAN.
28. What happens if Orrstown issues a stock dividend or declares a stock
split or makes a rights offering?
Any Shares of Common Stock distributed by Orrstown as a result of a stock
dividend or a stock split on Plan Shares or Safekeeping Shares held under the
Plan for a Participant will be credited to the Participant's account as
additional Plan Shares or Safekeeping Shares, respectively.
With respect to Shares issued through stock dividends or splits on
Participating Shares not held by the Administrator: (a) if the Participant has
elected the Full Dividend Reinvestment option (see Question 6), the newly issued
Shares will become Participating Shares automatically, and (b) if the
Participant has elected the Partial Dividend Reinvestment option (see Question
17
<PAGE>
7), the newly issued Shares will not become Participating Shares unless the
Participant subsequently enrolls such Shares under the Plan.
In the event that Orrstown makes rights available to holders of its Common
Stock to purchase additional Shares or other securities, the rights issuable
with respect to the Plan Shares and Safekeeping Shares will be distributed
directly to the Participants, who will be free to exercise or otherwise dispose
of the rights. If a Participant has elected the Full Dividend Reinvestment
option, any Common Stock acquired by the Participant on the exercise of rights
will become Participating Shares automatically. If a Participant has elected the
Partial Dividend Reinvestment option, any Common Stock acquired by the exercise
of rights will not become Participating Shares unless the Participant
subsequently enrolls such Shares under the Plan.
29. How many Shares are available for purchase under the Plan?
The 1998 Plan provided for the purchase of up to 200,000 Shares of
Orrstown's Common Stock directly from Orrstown, whether such Shares are held as
treasury Shares or are authorized but unissued Shares. Following a 2 for 1 stock
split effectuated November 21, 1998, and a 7 1/2% stock dividend on whole shares
as of November 1, 1999, the total number of shares authorized under 1998 Plan
and the Plan was 430,000. After purchases through November 30, 1999, there are
414,782 shares remaining and authorized for issuance under the Plan. Such number
will be further adjusted automatically in the event of a change in the
capitalization of Orrstown arising out of any stock dividend, stock split,
split-off, spin-off, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, exchange of shares
or similar event which causes shares of any class to be issued in respect of the
outstanding shares of Orrstown's Common Stock or causes shares of Orrstown's
Common Stock to be changed into the same or a different number of the same or
another class or classes of securities.
30. May the Plan be changed or terminated?
Orrstown intends the Plan to continue indefinitely. However, Orrstown
reserves the right to amend, modify, suspend or terminate the Plan at any time.
Participants will be notified in writing of any material changes in the Plan.
USE OF PROCEEDS
The proceeds to Orrstown from Shares of Common Stock sold by it pursuant to
the Plan will be used for general corporate purposes.
INDEMNIFICATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT
Except in limited circumstances, Orrstown is required by provisions in its
By-laws to indemnify its directors and officers against liability incurred by
them as a result of their service in those capacities. Insofar as
indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as
18
<PAGE>
amended, may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling Orrstown
pursuant to such provisions, Orrstown has been informed that in the opinion of
the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore,
unenforceable.
LEGAL OPINION
Rhoads & Sinon LLP, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania has rendered an opinion that
Shares issued by Orrstown pursuant to the terms of the Plan will be duly
authorized, fully paid and non-assessable.

Statement.
ITEM 15 INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Sections 1741-1743 of the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law of 1988, as
amended (the "BCL"), provide that a business corporation may indemnify directors
and officers against liabilities they may incur in such capacities provided
certain standards are met, including good faith and the belief that the
particular action is in the best interests of the corporation. In general, this
power to indemnify does not exist in the case of actions against a director or
officer by or in the right of the corporation if the person entitled to
indemnification shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless
and only to the extent a court determines that the person is fairly and
reasonably entitled to indemnification. A 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. Section 1746 of the BCL provides that
the foregoing provisions shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to
which a person seeking indemnification may be entitled under, among other
things, any by-law provision, provided that no indemnification may be made in
any case where the act or failure or act giving rise to the claim for
indemnification is determined by a court to have constituted willful misconduct
or recklessness. Section 1747 of the BCL authorizes a corporation to purchase
insurance for directors and other representatives. The foregoing statement is
subject to the detailed provisions of Section 1741-1850 of the BCL.
The By-laws of Orrstown Financial Services, Inc. ("the "Company") provide
for indemnification of directors and officers to the extent provided in the BCL.
In accordance with Section 1713 of the BCL, the By-laws of the Company also
include a provision that the directors of the Company shall not be personally
liable for monetary damages as such for any action taken, or failure to take any
action, unless: (1) the director has breached or failed to perform the duties of
2
<PAGE>
his office in good faith, in a manner he reasonably believes to be in the best
interests of the Company and with such care, including reasonable inquiry, skill
and diligence, as a person of ordinary prudence would use under similar
circumstances; and (2) the breach or failure to perform constitutes
self-dealing, willful misconduct or recklessness. Pursuant to Section 1713 of
the BCL, this limitation of personal liability does not apply to (i) the
responsibility or liability of a director pursuant to any criminal statute or
(ii) the liability of a director for the payment of taxes pursuant to federal,
state or local law.
The Company maintains directors and officers liability insurance providing
insurance under certain circumstances for directors and certain officers.

Exhibit 99(a)
ORRSTOWN FINANCIAL SERVICES, INC.
STOCKHOLDER DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT AND
STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
The Board of Directors of ORRSTOWN FINANCIAL SERVICES, INC. ("ORRSTOWN")
established this Stockholder Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (the
"PLAN") to provide ORRSTOWN stockholders with a simple, convenient, economical
and systematic method for reinvesting regular quarterly cash dividends and
making voluntary cash investments in additional shares of ORRSTOWN COMMON STOCK
without paying any brokerage commissions or incurring any service charges. The
Plan constitutes an amendment of and successor to the current Dividend
Reinvestment Plan of Orrstown which was instituted in 1998 (the "1998 Plan") and
which remains in effect until December 31, 1999. Each Participant in the 1998
Plan will automatically be enrolled in the Plan, which shall be effective
January 1, 2000.
The following sets forth the text of the PLAN as amended on September 16,
1999.
Section 1. Definitions.
The following words and phrases, when capitalized and used herein, shall
have the indicated meanings unless the context clearly indicates otherwise:
(a) INVESTMENT DATE: A date on which regular quarterly cash dividends are
paid and dividends are reinvested and/or voluntary cash payments are invested
pursuant to the PLAN.
<PAGE>
(b) MARKET PRICE PER SHARE OF ORRSTOWN COMMON STOCK:
(i) The average of the daily high bid and low offer quotations for
ORRSTOWN COMMON STOCK reported through the National Association of

Section 2. Eligibility.
Any ORRSTOWN stockholder is eligible to participate in the PLAN commencing
as of the date one or more shares of ORRSTOWN COMMON STOCK are registered in his
or her name on the books of ORRSTOWN. Beneficial owners of ORRSTOWN COMMON STOCK
held in nominee name must either have their shares registered in their own name
before participating in the PLAN, or arrange with the record holders to
participate in the PLAN on their behalf. ORRSTOWN stockholders who reside in
jurisdictions in which it is unlawful for ORRSTOWN to permit participation in
the PLAN are not eligible to participate in the PLAN.
Section 3. Participation.
(a) Full and Partial Dividend Reinvestment Options. In order to participate
in the PLAN, a stockholder who meets the eligibility requirements set forth in

designate and authorize the PLAN ADMINISTRATOR, on such stockholder's behalf, to
reinvest all of the regular quarterly cash dividends payable on all or any
specified fixed number of shares of ORRSTOWN COMMON STOCK registered in such
stockholder's name on the books of ORRSTOWN as of the applicable RECORD DATE
(or, if held in nominee name, with respect to which the record holder is
participating on behalf of the beneficial owner) in additional shares of
-4-
<PAGE>
ORRSTOWN COMMON STOCK pursuant to the provisions of Section 4 and Section 5 of
the PLAN. If the form of designation and authorization is duly completed, signed
and received by ORRSTOWN on or before a given RECORD DATE, reinvestment shall
begin with the dividend relating to such RECORD DATE. If the form of designation
and authorization is received after a given RECORD DATE, the dividend relating
to such RECORD DATE will be paid in cash and reinvestment shall begin with the
following dividend. Participation, once commenced, shall continue until a
PARTICIPANT withdraws from the PLAN in accordance with Section 10(a) of the
PLAN; ORRSTOWN or the PLAN ADMINISTRATOR terminates the PARTICIPANT's
participation in accordance with Section 10(b) of the PLAN; or the PLAN
terminates in accordance with Section 11(d) of the PLAN.

each quarter, to invest cash in an amount not to exceed, in the aggregate,
$2,500 per calendar quarter, but not less than $100, in additional shares
of ORRSTOWN COMMON STOCK, by (1) designating and authorizing the PLAN
ADMINISTRATOR, on such form or forms as may be designated by the PLAN
ADMINISTRATOR from time to time, to apply all of such cash to the purchase,
on such PARTICIPANT's behalf, of additional shares of ORRSTOWN COMMON STOCK
pursuant to the provisions of Section 4 of the PLAN, and (2) by
transmitting such cash amount by check or money order made payable to
"Orrstown Bank" and forms to the PLAN ADMINISTRATOR so that it is received

days prior to the INVESTMENT DATE. No interest will be paid on uninvested
voluntary cash payments. Payments received by the PLAN ADMINISTRATOR more
than twenty (20) days prior to an INVESTMENT DATE will be returned to the
PARTICIPANT.

checking or savings account at Orrstown Bank as a method to provide
voluntary cash payments under the PLAN. The automatic withdrawal feature
may be used on an ongoing basis or for periodic payments. PARTICIPANTS
desiring to use this feature must complete an authorization form available
upon request from the PLAN ADMINISTRATOR.

and under the 1998 Plan may not exceed four hundred thousand (400,000) shares,
whether such shares are held in the treasury of ORRSTOWN or are authorized but
unissued shares. In making purchases on behalf of a PARTICIPANT, the PLAN
ADMINISTRATOR may commingle such PARTICIPANT's funds with those of other
PARTICIPANTS. The price at which the PLAN ADMINISTRATOR shall be deemed to have
acquired shares for each PARTICIPANT's account shall be the PURCHASE PRICE on
the relevant INVESTMENT DATE. Neither the PLAN ADMINISTRATOR nor ORRSTOWN shall
be liable for any loss, damage or expense resulting, directly or indirectly,

-8-
<PAGE>
PLAN ADMINISTRATOR, nor the PURCHASING AGENT shall be liable for any loss,
damage or expense resulting, directly or indirectly, from the failure to make a
purchase or from the timing of any purchase made. Aside from transferring the
funds to the PURCHASING AGENT, neither ORRSTOWN nor the PLAN ADMINISTRATOR shall

stockholders in accordance with the instructions of such PARTICIPANT given on
any proxy executed by such PARTICIPANT and returned to ORRSTOWN with respect to
-10-
<PAGE>
such shares. A PARTICIPANT desiring to vote whole shares of ORRSTOWN COMMON
STOCK held for a PARTICIPANT in such PARTICIPANT's account under the PLAN in
person at a meeting of ORRSTOWN stockholders may do so. Whole shares of ORRSTOWN
COMMON STOCK held for a PARTICIPANT in such PARTICIPANT's account under the PLAN
will not be voted at a meeting of ORRSTOWN stockholders if a proxy is not
received by ORRSTOWN from such PARTICIPANT or if such PARTICIPANT does not vote
such whole shares in person at the meeting. In no event may a PARTICIPANT vote
the fractions of a whole share of ORRSTOWN COMMON STOCK credited to such
PARTICIPANT's account.

-11-
<PAGE>
shall be granted to PARTICIPANTS on whole shares of ORRSTOWN COMMON STOCK
credited to the account of such PARTICIPANTS under the PLAN. Rights based on any
fraction of a share credited to a PARTICIPANT's account shall at ORRSTOWN's
option be either redeemed by ORRSTOWN for cash or sold for such PARTICIPANT, and
the net proceeds therefrom shall be distributed to Participant.
Section 10. Withdrawal from the PLAN.
(a) A PARTICIPANT may withdraw from the PLAN at any time by giving the PLAN
ADMINISTRATOR written notice thereof. Any such notice of withdrawal received
later than five (5) days prior to a RECORD DATE, and on or before the ensuing
INVESTMENT DATE, shall not be effective until dividends paid for such RECORD
DATE have been credited to such PARTICIPANT's account. Upon withdrawal,
certificates for the number of whole shares specified in the PARTICIPANT'S
notice and credited to a PARTICIPANT's account under the PLAN shall be issued to
such PARTICIPANT and, in the event of a complete withdrawal, a cash payment
shall be made for any fractional share credited to such PARTICIPANT's account
(based upon the MARKET PRICE PER SHARE OF ORRSTOWN COMMON STOCK on the date the
withdrawal request is received, or if not a trading day, then on the next
preceding day which is a trading day. A PARTICIPANT who withdraws in accordance

Section 2 of the PLAN and makes the designation and authorization required by
Section 3(a) of the PLAN.

records.

within seven (7) business days following receipt of such notice, transfer to a
person designated by the PARTICIPANT or place a sale order on PARTICIPANT's
behalf for all or any portion of the whole number of shares credited to such
PARTICIPANT's account and shall deliver the proceeds therefrom, less any
brokerage fee, transfer tax and costs to the withdrawing PARTICIPANT. At the
PLAN ADMINISTRATOR's sole option and discretion, the PLAN ADMINISTRATOR may
aggregate the shares to be sold on behalf of various PARTICIPANTS, sell any such
shares through a broker of its choosing or in a negotiated transaction without a
broker (including a sale to ORRSTOWN), and the PLAN ADMINISTRATOR may purchase
any such shares on behalf of other PARTICIPANTS. Any sale to ORRSTOWN or
purchase by the PLAN ADMINISTRATOR on behalf of the PLAN accounts shall be made
at the PURCHASE PRICE (as defined in Section 1(h)).
(d) If a PARTICIPANT disposes of all the shares registered in such
PARTICIPANT's name that are enrolled in the PLAN, the PLAN ADMINISTRATOR shall,
until otherwise notified, continue to reinvest the dividends on the shares of
ORRSTOWN COMMON STOCK held in such PARTICIPANT's account.
Section 11. Amendment, Supplement, Waiver, Suspension or Termination.

times by mailing an appropriate notice to each PARTICIPANT at such PARTICIPANT's
last address of record at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of

such amendment or supplement. The amendment or supplement shall conclusively be
deemed to be accepted by each PARTICIPANT unless ORRSTOWN receives written
notice from a PARTICIPANT of such PARTICIPANT's complete withdrawal from the
PLAN in accordance with Section 10(a) of the PLAN. Amendments or supplements may
be required from time to time due to changes in existing rules and regulations
or new rules and regulations issued by a governing authority. In such cases,
ORRSTOWN may make such amendments or supplements as required, and thereafter
notify each participant thereof.

payments paid by PARTICIPANTS pursuant to Section 3(b) of the PLAN shall be
immediately returned to such PARTICIPANTS.
(d) The PLAN may be terminated by ORRSTOWN at any time by mailing an
appropriate notice to each PARTICIPANT at such PARTICIPANT's last address of

termination. In the event the PLAN is terminated, certificates for whole shares
of ORRSTOWN COMMON STOCK credited to a PARTICIPANT's account under the PLAN
