Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
CONTINGENCIES | CONTINGENCIES The nature of the Company’s business generates a certain amount of litigation involving matters arising out of the ordinary course of business. Except as described below, in the opinion of management, there are no legal proceedings that might have a material effect on the results of operations, liquidity, or the financial position of the Company at this time. On March 5, 2019, Paul Parshall, a purported individual stockholder of Hamilton, filed, on behalf of himself and all of Hamilton’s stockholders other than the named defendants and their affiliates (the “Purported Class”), a derivative and putative class action complaint in the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Maryland, captioned Paul Parshall v. Carol Coughlin et. al., naming each Hamilton director, Orrstown, and Hamilton as defendants (the “Action”). The Action alleged, among other things, that Hamilton’s directors breached their fiduciary duties to the Purported Class in connection with the merger, and that the Proxy Statement/Prospectus omitted certain material information regarding the merger. Orrstown was alleged to have aided and abetted the Hamilton directors’ alleged breaches of their fiduciary duties. The Action sought, among other remedies, to enjoin the merger or, in the event the merger was completed, rescission of the merger or rescissory damages; unspecified damages; and costs of the lawsuit, including attorneys’ and experts’ fees. A settlement was reached on the Action in March 2020, which resulted in a payment by the Company of $135 thousand in mootness fees to the defendants in April 2020. On May 25, 2012, the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (“SEPTA”) filed a putative class action complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania against the Company, the Bank and nine independent current and former directors and three current and former officers of the Company and the Bank. The complaint asserted claims under Sections 11, 12(a) and 15 of the Securities Act, Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, and sought class certification, unspecified money damages, interest, costs, fees and equitable or injunctive relief. Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Court appointed SEPTA Lead Plaintiff on August 20, 2012. On March 4, 2013, SEPTA filed an amended complaint. The amended complaint expanded the list of defendants in the action to include the Company’s former independent registered public accounting firm and the underwriters of the Company’s March 2010 public offering of common stock. In addition, among other things, the amended complaint extended the purported Exchange Act class period from March 15, 2010 through April 5, 2012. After years of litigation, on November 7, 2022, the Company, in order to avoid the cost, risks and distraction of continued litigation, entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (the “MOU”) to settle and resolve the lawsuit. The MOU memorialized the parties’ agreement to execute and submit a formal, binding settlement agreement for the Court’s approval, setting forth all of the material terms of the settlement reached by the plaintiffs and defendants. On December 7, 2022, the Company entered into a Stipulation and Agreement of Settlement (the “Stipulation”) providing for a payment to the Plaintiffs of $15.0 million, to which the Company agreed to contribute and has funded $13.0 million in escrow, a mutual release of claims against all parties, and a stipulation that the lawsuit will be dismissed with prejudice. The Stipulation does not include any admission of wrongdoing by any party. The Stipulation provides that the defendants have the option to terminate the settlement if class members who in the aggregate purchased more than a certain number of shares of the Company’s common stock during the class period, timely and validly exclude themselves from the class. The Stipulation was filed with the Court on December 8, 2022. On February 1, 2023, the Court issued an order which, among other things, preliminarily approved the Stipulation. The Stipulation is subject to final Court approval. On March 25, 2022, a customer of the Bank filed a putative class action complaint against the Bank in the Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, in a case captioned Alleman, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, v. Orrstown Bank. The complaint alleges, among other things, that the Bank breached its account agreements by charging certain overdraft fees. The complaint seeks a refund of all allegedly improper fees, damages in an amount to be proven at trial, attorneys’ fees and costs, and an injunction against the Bank’s allegedly improper overdraft practices. This lawsuit is similar to lawsuits recently filed against other financial institutions pertaining to overdraft fee disclosures. The Bank believes that the allegations and claims against the Bank are without merit.
