ITEM 5.05                                  Amendments to the Registrant’s Code of Ethics, or Waiver of a Provision of the Code of Ethics

 

On February 26, 2019, the Board of Directors of ACNB Corporation (the “Corporation”) approved and adopted amendments to the Corporation’s Code of Ethics (the “Code”) to clarify that directors, officers and employees are prohibited from taking corporate opportunities from or competing with the Corporation and that they must deal fairly with the Corporation’s customers, suppliers, partners, service providers, competitors, employees and anyone else with whom they have contact in the course of performing their jobs. The revisions came as a result of the annual evaluation of the Code and do not result in any waiver to any director, officer or employee of the Corporation, explicit or implicit, from any provision of the Code as in effect prior to the Board’s action to amend the Code.

 

The foregoing description of the amendments to the Code is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Code attached as Exhibit 14, which is incorporated herein by reference.
