Additional Information
 
The Private Placement discussed above and in the attached press release involves the sale of securities in private transactions that are not and/or will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933.  The attached press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
 

Caution about Forward-Looking Statements
 
Certain information contained in the attached discussion may include “forward-looking statements.”  These forward-looking statements relate to the Company’s plans for raising capital, including the transactions described in the attached press release, and timing of the second closing on the Private Placement and commencement of a rights offering, the ability to maintain “well capitalized status” and future growth of the Company and its subsidiaries.  There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to close on the remaining transactions with investors and obtain required capital, or that other actual results, performance or achievements of the Company will not differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements.  Factors that could cause actual events or results to differ significantly from those described in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, our ability to complete the remaining transactions and other aspects of our recapitalization and recovery plans.  Additional factors that could cause actual events or results to differ significantly from those described in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: (1) our ability to attract new deposits and loans; (2) local, regional, and national economic conditions and events and the impact they may have on us and our customers; (3) risks associated with concentrations in real estate related loans; (4) increasing levels of classified assets, including nonperforming assets, which could adversely affect our earnings and liquidity; (5) market interest rate volatility; (6) stability of funding sources and continued availability of borrowings; (7) changes in legal or regulatory requirements or the results of regulatory examinations that could restrict growth and constrain our activities, including the terms of our written agreement entered into with the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond and the Virginia Bureau of Financial Institutions; and (8) changes in accounting standards and interpretations.  For details on these and other factors that could affect expectations, see the cautionary language included under the headings “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
