Item 8.01 Other Events.

On July 19, 2012 VIST and Tompkins/ issued a joint press release announcing that (i) the shareholders of VIST and the shareholders of Tompkins approved and adopted the Merger Agreement, (ii) all necessary regulatory approvals for the consummation of the merger contemplated by the Merger Agreement have been received, and (iii) the merger is expected to be completed on August 1, 2012, pending certain customary closing conditions.

AsA ~~previously~~copy ~~announced, on January 25, 2012, Tompkins Financial Corporation (“Tompkins”), TMP Mergeco. Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a wholly owned acquisition subsidiary~~ of ~~Tompkins, and VIST Financial Corp. (“VIST”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (~~the ~~“Merger~~press ~~Agreement”)~~release ~~pursuant~~is toattached ~~which~~hereto ~~VIST~~as ~~will be merged with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”)~~Exhibit 99.1 ~~As a result of the Merger, the separate corporate existence of VIST will cease~~ and ~~Merger~~is ~~Sub~~incorporated ~~will~~herein ~~continue~~by ~~as the surviving corporation in the Merger~~reference.

OnItem ~~May 16,~~9.01 ~~2012,~~Financial ~~Tompkins~~Statements and VIST filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a definitive Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus (the “Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus”) in connection with the proposed Merger.Exhibits

~~As has previously been described in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus, following announcement of the Merger Agreement, two complaints~~ (~~the “Lawsuits”~~d) were filed against VIST, Tompkins and Merger Sub, one, a putative class action and shareholder derivative suit that also named certain members of the VIST board of directors as defendants, filed in the Berks County, Pennsylvania, Court of Common Pleas, and the other, a shareholder derivative action, filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania Exhibits. These complaints alleged generally that VIST’s board of directors breached their fiduciary duties, that Tompkins and Merger Sub aided and abetted such breaches of fiduciary duty, that the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus contained deficiencies in the disclosure of information relating to the Merger and, with respect to the Lawsuit filed in Pennsylvania state court, that the Merger represents a waste of corporate assets.

On99.1 Joint ~~June 18,~~Press ~~2012~~Release, ~~Tompkins,~~dated ~~Merger Sub~~July 19, ~~VIST and the plaintiffs in the Lawsuits entered into a memorandum of understanding~~2012, ~~regarding settlement~~ of ~~the~~Tompkins ~~Lawsuits. In~~Financial ~~connection~~Corporation ~~with~~and ~~the settlement, the parties agreed that~~ VIST ~~would~~Financial ~~make certain disclosures to its shareholders relating to the proposed Merger, in addition to the information contained in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus~~Corp. ~~Those additional disclosures are set forth below.~~

The memorandum of understanding also contemplates that the parties will seek to enter into and present to the state court a stipulation of settlement. The stipulation of settlement will be subject to customary conditions, including approval of the court. In the event that the parties enter into a stipulation of settlement, a hearing will be scheduled at which the court will consider the fairness, reasonableness and adequacy of the settlement. There can be no assurance that the parties will ultimately enter into a stipulation of settlement or that the court will approve the settlement even if the parties were to enter into such a stipulation. In such event, the proposed settlement as contemplated by the memorandum of understanding may be terminated. If the court approves the settlement, the settlement will resolve all of the claims that were or could have been brought in the Lawsuits, including all claims relating to the Merger, the Merger Agreement and any disclosure made in connection therewith.SIGNATURES

~~Tompkins,~~Pursuant ~~Merger Sub and VIST have vigorously denied, and continue~~ to ~~vigorously deny, any wrongdoing or liability with respect to all claims asserted in~~ the ~~Lawsuits,~~requirements ~~including (i) that they have committed any violations~~ of ~~law, (ii) that they have acted improperly in any way, (iii) that they have any liability or owe any damages of any kind to any plaintiff in~~ the ~~Lawsuits,~~Securities ~~and~~Exchange ~~(iv) that~~Act any additional disclosures (including the additional disclosures described herein) are required under any applicable rule, regulation, statute, or law. Rather, they are entering into the contemplated settlement solely because they consider it desirable that the Lawsuits be settled and dismissed in order to, among other things, (i) eliminate the burden, inconvenience, expense, risk, and distraction of ~~further litigation~~1934, ~~(ii) conclusively resolve all~~ the ~~claims~~registrant ~~that~~has ~~were~~duly orcaused ~~could have been asserted against them in the Lawsuits, and (iii) permit the Merger to proceed without risk of injunctive or other relief. Nothing in~~ this ~~document,~~report ~~the parties’ memorandum of understanding or any stipulation of settlement shall be deemed~~ to be ansigned ~~admission~~on ofits ~~liability~~behalf ~~or wrongdoing~~ by ~~any defendant in~~ the ~~Lawsuits~~undersigned ~~nor~~hereunto ~~shall~~duly ~~anything in this document, the parties’ memorandum of understanding or any stipulation of settlement be deemed an admission of the materiality of any of the disclosures set forth herein~~authorized.

~~ADDITIONAL DISCLOSURES~~Exhibit Index

~~Additional~~99.1 Joint ~~Disclosure~~Press ~~Regarding~~Release, ~~Background~~dated ~~and~~July 19, ~~Negotiation~~2012, of ~~the~~Tompkins ~~Merger~~Financial Corporation and VIST Financial Corp.

~~The section entitled “Background and Negotiation of the Merger” beginning on page 43 of the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:~~3

The following sentence is inserted on page 43 of the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus after the second sentence of the last paragraph:

Treasury declined to advise VIST on what specific bases the determination was made not to approve VIST’s application.

The following sentence is inserted on page 44 of the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus after the first sentence of the fourth paragraph:

This group of potential merger partners was selected based on such factors as size, profitability, asset quality, geographic footprint, business culture and possible interest in and ability to complete a strategic acquisition that would be attractive to VIST shareholders.

The fifth full paragraph on page 45 of the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus is hereby amended to read in full as follows:

On November 28, 2011, VIST received initial written indications of interest from Company A, Company B and Tompkins. Each of Company C, Company D and Company E elected not to submit initial indications of interest for a variety of stated business reasons, including constraints on capital, potential dilution to existing shareholders and the timing of the proposed transaction relative to other company commitments. The initial indication of interest letters received from the three parties provided for per share merger consideration of $11.00 to $12.00 (Company A), $11.50 to $13.50 (Company B), and $11.00 to $12.50 (Tompkins). The indication of interest from Company A provided for consideration in the form of common stock and cash (with a maximum of 25% cash), and the indications of interest from both Company B and Tompkins provided for 100% common stock consideration. The indication of interest from Company A briefly provided for VIST shareholders to have representation by one director on the Company A board of directors and for Company A to use its best efforts to hire VIST employees. Company B’s indication of interest provided for VIST shareholders to have representation by one director on the Company A board of directors, the appointment of a regional president to manage operations of the existing VIST footprint, continued employment of substantially all front line VIST employees and undisclosed opportunities to senior executives for regional positions. Tompkins’ preliminary indication of interest also addressed management and the board of directors by indicating that Tompkins would discuss the possibility of continued employment of VIST’s chief executive officer and possible alternatives for post-transaction employment for other members of management and representation of VIST on the Tompkins Board of Directors.

The following language is inserted on page 46 of the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus after the fifth sentence of the second paragraph:

The adjustment of the exchange ratio at the top and bottom of the 10% collar was intended to provide some value protection to VIST shareholders in connection with significant decreases in

Tompkins’ stock prices and protection to Tompkins’ shareholders against excessive dilution associated with significant increases in Tompkins’ stock prices.

The clause “which were immaterial in amount” is inserted on page 59 of the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus at the end of the fifth sentence of the second paragraph:

Safe Harbor Statement

This document contains certain forward-looking information about Tompkins, VIST and the combined company that is intended to be covered by the safe harbor for “forward-looking statements” provided by the Private

Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements may include statements for the period after the completion of the Merger. Representatives of Tompkins and VIST may also make forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts. Words such as “expect,” “believe,” “will,” “may,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “estimate,” “intend,” “should,” “can,” “likely,” “could” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements include statements about the expected benefits of the Merger, information about the combined company’s objectives, plans and expectations, the likelihood of satisfaction of certain conditions to the completion of the Merger and whether and when the Merger will be completed. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. These statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of the management of each of Tompkins and VIST and are subject to risks and uncertainties, including the risks described in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus under the section “Risk Factors,” that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied or projected by, the forward-looking information and statements.

In light of these risks, uncertainties, assumptions and factors, the results anticipated by the forward-looking statements discussed in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus or made by representatives of Tompkins or VIST may not occur. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof or, in the case of statements made by representatives of Tompkins or VIST, on the date those statements are made. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning the Merger or the combined company or other matters addressed in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus and attributable to Tompkins or VIST or any person acting on behalf of either are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section. Except to the extent required by applicable law or regulation, neither Tompkins nor VIST undertakes any obligation to update or publish revised forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus or the date of the forward-looking statements or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Additional Information

This communication does not constitute an offer or the solicitation of an offer to buy our securities or the solicitation of any vote or approval. This communication is being made in respect of the proposed Merger. In connection with the proposed Merger, Tompkins and VIST filed a definitive Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus with the SEC. The definitive Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus was mailed to Tompkins’ and VIST’s shareholders on or about May 28, 2012. Before making any voting decision, shareholders are urged to read carefully in their entirety the definitive Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus and any other relevant documents filed by Tompkins and VIST with the SEC when they become available because they contain and will contain important information about the proposed Merger. You may obtain copies of all documents filed with the SEC regarding the proposed Merger, free of charge, at the SEC’s website (www.sec.gov), by accessing VIST’s website at http://www.vistfc.com or by calling VIST at (610) 603-7211 or by accessing Tompkins’ website at http://www.tompkinsfinancial.com or by calling Tompkins at (607) 273-3210.
