Section 8 — Other Events
Item 8.01 Other Events
On August 23, 2007, Citizens & Northern Corporation’s Board of Directors approved an extension and
amendment of the Company’s common share repurchase plan. As amended, the plan permits repurchases
up to a total of $10 million from the time of this announcement through August 31, 2008.
Repurchases are authorized to be made by Citizens & Northern Corporation from time to time at the
prevailing market prices in open market or in privately negotiated transactions as, in management’s
sole opinion, market conditions warrant and based on stock availability, price and the Company’s
financial performance. It is anticipated that such purchases will be made by August 31, 2008;
however, no assurance may be given when such purchases will be made or the total number of shares
that will be purchased.
Prior to this amendment, the plan had permitted Company repurchases up to $13,000,000 through
August 31, 2007. Through August 23, 2007, repurchases had totaled $3,282,983, leaving an available
balance of $9,717,017. This amendment adjusts the available balance to $10 million.
Signatures
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused
