INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE REPORT

Section 8 – Other Events

Item 8.01                      Other Events.

On July 23, 2010, the Registrant was advised that it would recover all of its funds that were involved in the previously reported incident of alleged fraud and theft by an executive of a New York armored car company.

As previously disclosed, on February 9, 2010, the Registrant was advised that an executive of an armored car company based in Mount Vernon, New York, was arrested and charged with fraud and theft in connection with an ATM vault cash program.  This same armored car company also served as an armored carrier for several customers of Cash Connect, a division of the Registrant’s subsidiary, Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB (“WSFS Bank”), that also provides ATM vault cash services.  In its March 31, 2010 Form 10-Q, the Registrant reported a loss of $4.5 million related to funds not immediately recoverable by Cash Connect.
 
 
Recent events have allowed management to conclude that recovery of the loss is probable and expects that proceeds will be received in early August and therefore a full recovery will be recorded in the third quarter of 2010.
