ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
On October 8, 2003, Stambaugh Ness, PC, the Registrant's principal accountants,
notified the Registrant that it will decline to stand for appointment after
completion of the current audit for calendar year 2003. Services to be provided
by Stambaugh Ness, PC through the end of the calendar year 2003 will include the
interim review for the third quarter ending September 30, 2003. Stambaugh Ness,
PC, has chosen not to continue to provide independent auditing services to
companies who report to the Securities and Exchange Commission. ACNB Corporation
will initiate efforts to engage an independent accountant for calendar year
2004. Stambaugh Ness, PC will provide a letter of final resignation in 2004.
In connection with audits of the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2002, and
subsequent interim periods through October 8, 2003, there were no disagreements
with Stambaugh Ness, PC, on any matter of accounting principles or practices,
financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which
disagreements if not resolved to Stambaugh Ness' satisfaction, would have caused
them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection
with its report.
The audit reports of Stambaugh Ness, PC, on the financial statements of ACNB
Corporation as of and for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, did not
contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or
modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. We have
provided Stambaugh Ness, PC, with a copy of the foregoing disclosures. Attached
as Exhibit 16.1 is a copy of Stambaugh Ness' letter dated October 17, 2003,
stating that it has found no basis for disagreement with such statements.
