The following constitutes the Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (“Amendment No.1”). This Amendment No.1 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:

On January 19, 2016, the Reporting Persons filed a Schedule 13D announcing their intent to withhold their support for F. Claire Hughes, Jr., Robert C.F. Willson and Ralph K. Packard, the three director nominees proposed for election at the Issuer’s 2016 Annual Meeting. On February 3, 2016, the Issuer filed a Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission announcing that Messrs. Hughes and Willson submitted their resignations from the Boards of Directors of the Issuer and its bank subsidiary, Malvern Federal Savings Bank, effective February 14, 2016 and February 17, 2016, respectively, and determined not to seek re-election at the Issuer’s 2016 Annual Meeting. The Reporting Persons are gratified that Messrs. Hughes and Willson agreed to resign and not seek re-election. Based upon these resignations, the Reporting Persons have determined to withdraw their intent to withhold with respect to Mr. Packard and will vote for his re-election to the Issuer's Board of Directors.
