AmeriServ Financial invalidates Driver's director nominations citing bylaw violations
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Company found Driver's Jan 17 nomination notice deficient for failing to disclose $4M+ related-party loans involving nominee Rudolph's father and brother-in-law.
- Bylaw deadline was Jan 26; subsequent Feb 10 attempt to cure was untimely and still incomplete.
- Nominee J. Abbott Cooper may be ineligible under interlock rule due to expected board seat at First of Long Island.
- Company demands Driver withdraw candidates by Mar 16; warns it will not recognize nominations at 2023 annual meeting.
