Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This release includes “forward-looking statements” within the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, with respect to CCFNB and Muncy. These forward-looking statements may include beliefs,
goals, intentions, and expectations regarding the proposed transaction between Muncy and CCFNB, revenues, earnings, loan production, asset
quality, and capital levels, among other matters; estimates of future costs and benefits of the actions that may be taken; assessments
of probable losses on loans; assessments of interest rate and other market risks; ability to achieve financial and other strategic goals;
the expected timing of completion of the proposed transaction; the expected cost savings, synergies and other anticipated benefits from
the proposed transaction; and other statements that are not historical facts.
Forward-looking statements are typically identified by such words as
“believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “outlook,” “estimate,”
“forecast,” “project,” “should,” “will” and other similar words and expressions, and are
subject to numerous assumptions, risks, and uncertainties, which change over time. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation,
those relating to the terms, timing and closing of the proposed transaction.
Additionally, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date
they are made; CCFNB and Muncy do not assume any duty, and do not undertake, to update such forward-looking statements, whether written
or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Furthermore, because
forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions and uncertainties, actual results or future events could differ, possibly materially,
from those indicated in such forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are beyond the control of
CCFNB and Muncy. Such statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of the managements of CCFNB and Muncy and are subject
to significant risks and uncertainties outside of the control of the parties. Caution should be exercised against placing undue reliance
on forward-looking statements. The factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include the following: the occurrence
of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the right of one or both of the parties to terminate the definitive
merger agreement between CCFNB and Muncy; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against CCFNB or Muncy; the possibility
that the proposed transaction will not close when expected or at all because required regulatory, shareholder or other approvals are
not received or other conditions to the closing are not satisfied on a timely basis or at all, or are obtained subject to conditions
that are not anticipated (and the risk that required regulatory approvals may result in the imposition of conditions that could adversely
affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the proposed transaction); the ability of CCFNB and Muncy to meet expectations
regarding the timing, completion and accounting and tax treatments of the proposed transaction; the risk that any announcements relating
to the proposed transaction could have adverse effects on the market price of the common stock of either or both parties to the proposed
transaction; the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction will not be realized when expected or at all,
including as a result of the impact of, or problems arising from, the integration of the two companies or as a result of the strength
of the economy and competitive factors in the areas where CCFNB and Muncy do business; certain restrictions during the pendency
of the proposed transaction that may impact the parties’ ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions;
the possibility that the transaction may be more expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors
or events; diversion of management’s attention from ongoing business operations and opportunities; the possibility that
the parties may be unable to achieve expected synergies and operating efficiencies in the merger within the expected timeframes or at
all and to successfully integrate Muncy’s operations and those of CCFNB; such integration may be more difficult, time consuming
or costly than expected; revenues following the proposed transaction may be lower than expected; CCFNB’s and Muncy’s success
in executing their respective business plans and strategies and managing the risks involved in the foregoing; the dilution caused by
CCFNB’s issuance of additional shares of its capital stock in connection with the proposed transaction; effects of the announcement,
pendency or completion of the proposed transaction on the ability of CCFNB and Muncy to retain customers and retain and hire key personnel
and maintain relationships with their suppliers, and on their operating results and businesses generally; and risks related to the potential
impact of general economic, political and market factors on the companies or the proposed transaction and other factors that may affect
future results of CCFNB and Muncy; uncertainty as to the extent of the duration, scope, and impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on CCFNB,
Muncy and the proposed transaction; and the other factors discussed in other reports CCFNB and Muncy may file with the U.S. Securities
and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
