CNB Bancorp, Inc.
CNB was incorporated as a Virginia corporation on November 12, 2001, to serve as a bank holding company that holds all of the outstanding capital stock of Citizens National Bank (the “Bank”), a nationally chartered bank located in Windsor, Virginia. Other than its investment in the Bank, the Company has no other material asset, nor does it conduct any other business activity.
During its organization, the Company’s operations, pre-opening expenses and capital costs from April 23, 2001 through the opening of the Bank were funded by and conducted through CNB Bancorp, LLC (the “LLC”), a limited liability company formed by the Company’s organizing directors. The Company closed its public offering on December 31, 2002. The offering raised $5.4 million, net of offering expenses. Upon opening the Bank, the Company and the Bank used part of the offering proceeds to reimburse the LLC for operational and pre-opening expenses related to the Company and the Bank and the LLC was subsequently dissolved. The amount of the pre-opening expenses paid by the LLC was $439,000. The proceeds of the offering net of offering expenses and pre-opening expenses totaled $4.97 million.
In September, 2006, the Company completed a 3-for-2 stock split, followed by an offering of 650,000 shares of its common stock in a rights offering and a public offering. The offering raised $4.0 million, net of offering expenses. The Company used the net proceeds from the offering to increase equity and subsequently the Bank’s legal lending limit. The funds have also been used for general corporate purposes, including any future growth and expansion. Also during 2006, CNB Bancorp, Inc. common stock began trading on the OTC Bulletin Board with the symbol CNBV.
We chose our holding company structure because we believe it provides flexibility that would not otherwise be available to us. Subject to Federal Reserve debt guidelines, through a holding company structure, we can assist the Bank in maintaining its required capital ratios by borrowing money and contributing the proceeds to the Bank as primary capital. Additionally, under provisions of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, a holding company may engage in activities that are financial in nature or incidental or complementary to a financial activity including some insurance transactions, real estate development activities and merchant banking activities, which a bank may not engage in. Although we do not presently intend to engage in these types of activities, we will be able to do so with a proper notice or filing to the Federal Reserve if we believe that there is a need for these services in our market area and that these activities could be profitable.

Citizens National Bank
Citizens National Bank received its final approval to become a national bank from the Office of the Comptroller of Currency (OCC) and began operations in April, 2003.
Market Area and Competition. Our primary service area consists of the 15-mile radius surrounding our main office location in the Town of Windsor, Virginia. This area includes all of the County of Isle of Wight, the Cities of Franklin and Suffolk, and portions of Southampton, Surry and Sussex Counties.
As of December 31, 2010, our primary service area was serviced by 14 financial institutions with 40 banking offices, and there was only one other bank operating in the Town of Windsor. Almost all of the financial institutions operating within our primary service area are large national, regional or super-regional banks. With the exception of one local bank, Farmers Bank, none of these financial institutions are headquartered in our primary service area.
The majority of our competitors have substantially greater resources and lending limits than Citizens National Bank has and provide other services, such as extensive and established branch networks and trust services, which we do not expect to provide in the near future. As a result of these competitive factors, Citizens National Bank may have to pay higher interest rates to attract depositors or extend credit with lower interest rates to attract borrowers.
Lending Policy. The Bank continues to aggressively seek creditworthy borrowers within its primary service area. As of December 31, 2010, the Bank’s loan portfolio was comprised of the following:
| Loan Classification |
Percentage of Total Loans |
|||
| Real estate-related loans |
84.2 | % | ||
| Commercial loans |
7.7 | % | ||
| Consumer loans |
8.1 | % | ||
Loan Approval and Review. The Bank’s loan approval policies provide for various levels of officer lending authority. When the total amount of loans to a single borrower exceeds an individual officer’s lending authority, an officer with a higher lending limit or the Bank’s director loan committee determines whether to approve the loan request. As part of its lending policy, the Bank does not make loans to its directors or executive officers unless a majority of its disinterested board members approves the loan and the terms of the loan are no more favorable than would be available to any other borrower similarly situated.
Lending Limits. The Bank’s lending activities are subject to a variety of lending limits imposed by federal law. Differing limits apply based on the type of loan and the nature of the borrower, including the borrower’s relationship to the Bank. In general, however, the Bank is able to loan any one borrower a maximum principal amount equal to either:
| • | 15% of the Bank’s capital and surplus; or |
| • | 25% of its capital and surplus if the excess over 15% is within federal guidelines, which provides an exception to the 15% limit for debt secured by readily marketable collateral, as defined by OCC regulations. |
The Bank complies with the statutory lending limits, as described above. The Bank’s legal lending limits will increase or decrease as the Bank’s capital increases or decreases as a result of, among other reasons, its earnings or losses. The Bank may sell loan participations to other financial institutions to meet the needs of customers requiring loans above these limits.
Real Estate Loans. The Bank makes and holds real estate-related loans, consisting primarily of mortgage loans, home equity lines of credit and non-farm, non-residential loans secured by real estate (typically owner-occupied commercial buildings). The Bank is involved in both the originating and servicing of its first and second mortgage loans, and generally requires an aggregated loan-to-value ratio of no more than 85%. For construction loans, the Bank requires a first lien position on the land associated with the project with terms not exceeding one year. Loan disbursements on construction loans require on-site inspections to assure the project is on budget and that the loan proceeds are not being diverted to another project. The loan-to-value ratios for construction loans are typically 90% of the as-built appraised value or 100% of project cost. The Bank also offers home equity lines of credit, which equaled approximately 3.3% of the Bank’s total loans, as of December 31, 2010, and have interest rate terms that are variable rather than fixed.

Table of Contents
As of December 31, 2010, approximately 29.8% of the Bank’s real estate-related loans had interest rate terms that were variable or carried a term of 12 months or less. Additionally, the terms of the Bank’s real estate loans generally do not exceed five years. Loans for construction can present a high degree of risk to the lender and depend upon, among other things, the builder’s ability to sell the home to a buyer, the buyer’s ability to obtain permanent financing and the construction project’s ability to produce income in the interim.
Commercial Loans. The Bank’s commercial lending is directed principally toward small to medium-size businesses whose demands for funds fall within the legal lending limits of the Bank. The Bank’s commercial loans are made to individual, partnership or corporate borrowers, and are obtained for a variety of business purposes. Of the Bank’s commercial loans as of December 31, 2010, approximately 67.1% were adjustable-rate loans or mature within one year and 32.9% had maturities extending beyond 12 months but less than 60 months. Risks associated with these loans can be significant and include, but are not limited to, fraud, bankruptcy, continued prolonged economic downturn, deteriorated or non-existing collateral and changes in interest rates.
Consumer Loans. The Bank makes consumer loans, consisting primarily of installment loans to individuals for personal, family and household purposes, including loans for automobiles, home improvements and investments. Almost all of the Bank’s consumer loans are fixed rate loans with maturities ranging from 3 to 5 years. Risks associated with consumer loans include, but are not limited to, fraud, deteriorated or non-existing collateral, general economic downturn and customer financial problems.
Investments. In addition to its loan operations, the Bank makes other investments primarily in obligations of the United States or obligations guaranteed as to principal and interest by the United States and other taxable securities such as corporate bonds and state and municipal bonds. The Bank also may invest in certificates of deposits in other financial institutions. The amount invested in such time deposits, as viewed on an institution by institution basis, generally would not exceed $250,000; therefore, being fully insured by the FDIC. No investment held by the Bank exceeds any applicable limitation imposed by law or regulation. Our asset and liability management committee reviews the investment portfolio on an ongoing basis to ascertain investment profitability and to verify compliance with the Bank’s investment policies.
Deposits. The Bank’s core deposits include checking accounts, money market accounts, a variety of certificates of deposit and IRA accounts. The Bank’s primary sources of deposits are residents of, and businesses and their employees located in Isle of Wight County. The Bank has obtained its deposits primarily through personal solicitation by its officers and directors and advertisements published in the local media. We plan to continue generating deposits by offering competitively priced deposit services, including demand deposits, regular savings accounts, money market deposits, certificates of deposit, retirement accounts and other legally permitted deposit or fund transfer services.
Other Banking Services. In addition to its lending and deposit products and services, the Bank offers internet banking, commercial cash management, bill pay, commercial deposit capture, mortgage brokering, debit cards, travelers’ checks, notary public services, wire services, safe deposit box rental, ATM services, On-Call telephone banking, and other traditional bank services to its customers.
Asset and Liability Management. The Bank has established an asset and liability management committee to manage its assets and liabilities. The goal of this committee is to maintain an optimum and stable net interest margin, a profitable after-tax return on assets and return on equity and adequate liquidity. The committee conducts these management functions within the framework of written loan and investment policies that the Bank has adopted. The committee also attempts to maintain a balanced position between rate sensitive assets and rate sensitive liabilities. Specifically, the committee charts the Bank’s assets and liabilities on a matrix by maturity and interest adjustment period and attempts to manage any gaps in maturity ranges.
Employees. As of December 31, 2010, the Bank had a total of 16 full time equivalent employees. CNB does not have any employees who are not also employees of Citizens National Bank.
Reports to Security Holders. The public may read and copy any materials the Company has filed with the Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) at the Public Reference Room at 450 Fifth Street, N.W., Washington D.C., 20549. Information on the operation of the SEC Public Reference Room may by obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330. The SEC also maintains an Internet site, www.sec.gov, which contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information free of charge regarding the Company’s filings. The Bank’s website, www.cnbva.com, contains a link directly to Company SEC filings.

Supervision and Regulation
Both the Company and the Bank are subject to extensive state and federal banking laws and-regulations that impose restrictions on and provide general regulatory oversight of their operations. These laws and regulations-are generally intended to protect depositors and not shareholders. Legislation and regulations authorized by legislation influence, among other things:
| • | how, when, and where we may expand geographically; |
| • | into what product or service market we may enter; |
| • | how we must manage our assets; |
| • | and under what circumstances money may or must flow between the parent bank holding company and the subsidiary bank. |
Set forth below is an explanation of the major pieces of legislation affecting our industry and how that legislation affects our actions. The following summary is qualified by reference to the statutory and regulatory provisions discussed. Changes in applicable laws or regulations may have a material effect on our business and prospects, and legislative changes and the policies of various regulatory authorities may significantly affect our operations. We cannot predict the effect that fiscal or monetary policies, or new federal or state legislation may have on our business and earnings in the future.
The Company
The Company owns all of the capital stock of the Bank; therefore, it is a bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956. As a result, the Company is primarily subject to the supervision, examination, and reporting requirements of the Bank Holding Company Act and the regulations of the Federal Reserve. As a bank holding company registered under the Virginia Banking Act, the Virginia Bureau of Financial Institutions, a division of the Virginia State Corporation Commission, also regulates and monitors all significant aspects of the Company’s operations.
Acquisitions of Banks. The Bank Holding Company Act requires every bank holding company to obtain the Federal Reserve’s prior approval before:
| • | acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of any voting shares of any bank if, after the acquisition, the bank holding company will directly or indirectly own or control more than 5% of the bank’s voting shares; |
| • | acquiring all or substantially all of the assets of any bank; or |
| • | merging or consolidating with any other bank holding company. |
Additionally, the Bank Holding Company Act provides that the Federal Reserve may not approve any of these transactions if it would result in or tend to create a monopoly, or substantially lessen competition, or otherwise function as a restraint of trade, unless the anticompetitive effects of the proposed transaction are clearly outweighed by the public interest in meeting the convenience and needs of the community to be served. The Federal Reserve is also required to consider the financial and managerial resources and future prospects of the bank holding companies and banks concerned and the convenience and needs of the community to be served. The Federal Reserve’s consideration of financial resources generally focuses on capital adequacy, which is discussed below.
Under the Bank Holding Company Act, if adequately capitalized and adequately managed, the Company or any other bank holding company located in Virginia may purchase a bank located outside of Virginia. Conversely, an adequately capitalized and adequately managed bank holding company located outside of Virginia may purchase a bank located inside Virginia. In each case, however, restrictions, including the laws of other states, may be placed on the acquisition of a bank that has only been in existence for a limited amount of time or will result in specified concentrations of deposits.
Change in Bank Control. Subject to various exceptions, the Bank Holding Company Act and the Change in Bank Control Act, together with related regulations, require Federal Reserve approval prior to any person or company acquiring “control” of a bank holding company. Control is conclusively presumed to exist if an individual or company acquires 25% or more of any class of voting securities of the bank holding company. Control is rebuttably presumed to exist if a person or company acquires 10% or more, but less than 25%, of any class of voting securities and either:
| • | the bank holding company has registered securities under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; or |
| • | no other person owns a greater percentage of that class of voting securities immediately after the transaction. |
Our common stock is registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The regulations provide a procedure for challenging the rebuttable presumption of control.
Permitted Activities. The Bank Holding Company Act has generally prohibited a bank holding company from engaging in activities other than banking or managing or controlling banks or other permissible subsidiaries and from acquiring or retaining direct or indirect control of any company engaged in any activities other than those determined by the Federal Reserve to be
6
Table of Contents
closely related to banking as to be a proper incident thereto. Provisions of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act have expanded the permissible activities of a bank holding company that qualifies as a financial holding company. Under the regulations implementing the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, a financial holding company may engage in additional activities that are financial in nature or incidental or complementary to financial activity. Those activities include, among other activities, certain insurance and securities activities.
To qualify to become a financial holding company, the Bank and any other depository institution subsidiary of the Company must be well capitalized and well managed and must have a Community Reinvestment Act rating of at least “satisfactory.” Additionally, the Company must file an election with the Federal Reserve to become a financial holding company and must provide the Federal Reserve-with 30 days’ written notice prior to engaging in a permitted financial activity. While the Company meets the qualification standards applicable to financial holding companies, the Company has not elected to become a financial holding company at this time.
Support of Subsidiary Institution. Under Federal Reserve policy, the Company is expected to act as a source of financial strength for the Bank and to commit resources to support the Bank. This support may be required at times when, without this Federal Reserve policy, the Company might not be inclined to provide it. In addition, any capital loans made by the Company to the Bank will be repaid only after the Bank’s deposits and various other obligations are repaid in full. In the unlikely event of the Company’s bankruptcy, any commitment by it to a federal bank regulatory agency to maintain the capital of the Bank will be assumed by the bankruptcy trustee and entitled to a priority of payment.
The Bank
Since the Bank is chartered as a national bank, it is primarily subject to the supervision, examination, and reporting requirements of the National Bank Act and the regulations of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency regularly examines the Bank’s operations and has the authority to approve or disapprove mergers, the establishment of branches and similar corporate actions. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency also has the power to prevent the continuance or development of unsafe or unsound banking practices or other violations of law. Because the Bank’s deposits are insured by the FDIC to the maximum extent provided by law, it is also subject to certain FDIC regulations. The Bank is also subject to numerous state and federal statutes and regulations that affect its business, activities, and operations.
Branching. National banks are required by the National Bank Act to adhere to branch office banking laws applicable to state banks in the states in which their main office is located. Under current Virginia law, the Bank may open branch offices throughout Virginia with the prior approval of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. In addition, with prior regulatory approval, the Bank will generally be able to acquire banking operations in Virginia. Furthermore, federal legislation has been passed which permits interstate branching. These laws permit out-of-state acquisitions by bank holding companies, interstate branching by banks if allowed by state law, and interstate merging by banks.
Prompt Corrective Action. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 established a system of prompt corrective action to resolve the problems of undercapitalized financial institutions. Under this system, the federal banking regulators have established five capital categories (well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized) in which all institutions are placed. The federal banking agencies have specified by regulation the relevant capital level for each category.
Federal banking regulators are required to take various mandatory supervisory actions and are authorized to take other discretionary actions with respect to institutions in the three undercapitalized categories. The severity of the action depends upon the capital category in which the institution is placed. Generally, subject to a narrow exception, the banking regulator must appoint a receiver or conservator for an institution that is critically undercapitalized. The other capital categories are well capitalized, adequately capitalized, and undercapitalized. As of December 31, 2010, the Bank qualified for the well-capitalized category.
A “well-capitalized” bank is one that significantly exceeds all of its capital requirements, which include maintaining a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 10%, a tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of at least 6%, and a tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 5%. Generally, a classification as well capitalized will place a bank outside of the regulatory zone for purposes of prompt corrective action. However, a well-capitalized bank may be reclassified as “adequately capitalized” based on criteria other than capital, if the federal regulator determines that a bank is in an unsafe or unsound condition, or is engaged in unsafe or unsound practices and has not corrected the deficiency.
FDIC Insurance Assessments. The Bank’s deposits are insured up to applicable limits by the Deposit Insurance Fund (DIF) of the FDIC, an independent agency of the United States government. The FDIC amended its risk-based assessment system
7
Table of Contents
in 2007 to implement authority granted by the Federal Deposit Insurance Reform Act of 2005 (FDIRA). Under the revised system, insured institutions are assigned to one of four risk categories based on supervisory evaluations, regulatory capital levels and certain other factors. An institution’s assessment rate depends upon the category to which it is assigned. Unlike the other categories, Risk Category I, which contains the least risky depository institutions, contains further risk differentiation based on the FDIC’s analysis of financial ratios, examination component ratings and other information. Assessment rates are determined by the FDIC and, for calendar year 2008, assessments ranged from five to 43 basis points of each institution’s deposit assessment base. Due to losses incurred by the DIF in 2008 from failed institutions, and anticipated future losses, the FDIC adopted an across the board seven basis point increase in the assessment range for the first quarter of 2009. The FDIC made further refinements to its risk-based assessment that became effective April 1, 2009, and effectively made the range seven to 77.5 basis points. The FDIC may adjust rates uniformly from one quarter to the next, except that no single adjustment can exceed three basis points.
Under an interim rule adopted on February 27, 2009, the FDIC imposed an emergency special assessment of 20 basis points as of June 30, 2009. In November 2009, the FDIC adopted a final rule requiring insured depository institutions to prepay their estimated quarterly risk-based assessments for the fourth quarter of 2009, and for all of 2010, 2011 and 2012, on December 31, 2009, along with each institution’s risk-based deposit insurance assessment for the third quarter of 2009. The prepayment was based on an institution’s assessment rate and assessment base for the third quarter of 2009, assuming a five percent annual growth in deposits each year. While the FDIC plan would maintain current assessment rates through 2010, effective January 1, 2011, the rates would increase by three basis points across the board. The FDIC has elected to forgo this increase under a new DIF restoration plan adopted in October 2010 as discussed below. On December 30, 2009, the Company prepaid $214,000 of FDIC assessments.
In October 2010, the FDIC adopted a new DIF restoration plan to ensure that the fund reserve ratio reaches 1.35 percent by September 30, 2020, as required by the Dodd-Frank Act, which Act is described in more detail below. Under the new restoration plan, the FDIC will forego the uniform three-basis point increase in initial assessment rates scheduled to take place on January 1, 2011 and maintain the current schedule of assessment rates for all depository institutions. At least semi-annually, the FDIC will update its loss and income projections for the fund and, if needed, will increase or decrease assessment rates, following notice-and-comment rulemaking if required.
In November 2010, the FDIC issued a final rule to implement provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act that provide for temporary unlimited coverage for noninterest-bearing transaction accounts beginning January 1, 2011 and continuing through December 2012. For purposes of this extension, the definition of noninterest-bearing transaction accounts excludes negotiable order of withdraw consumer checking accounts (NOW accounts) and Interest on Lawyer Trust Accounts (IOLTAs). The extended program is not optional and will no longer be funded by separate premiums.
In February 2011, the FDIC approved a final rule that changes the assessment base from domestic deposits to average consolidated total assets minus average tangible equity (defined as Tier 1 capital); adopts a new large-bank pricing assessment scheme; and sets a target size for the DIF. The changes will go into effect beginning with the second quarter of 2011 and will be payable at the end of September 2011. The rule, as mandated by the Dodd-Frank Act, finalizes a target size for the DIF at 2 percent of insured deposits. It also implements a lower assessment rate schedule when the fund reaches 1.15 percent and, in lieu of dividends, provides for a lower rate schedule when the reserve ration reaches 2 percent and 2.5 percent.
Community Reinvestment Act. The Community Reinvestment Act requires that, in connection with examinations of financial institutions within their respective jurisdictions, the federal bank regulators shall evaluate the record of each financial institution in meeting the credit needs of its local community, including low and moderate-income neighborhoods. These facts are also considered in evaluating mergers, acquisitions and applications to open a branch or facility. Failure to adequately meet these criteria could impose additional requirements and limitations on the Bank. Additionally, the Bank must publicly disclose the terms of various Community Reinvestment Act-related agreements.
Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses. The Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses (the “ALLL”) represents one of the most significant estimates in the Bank’s financial statements and regulatory reports. Because of its significance, the Bank has developed a system by which it develops, maintains, and documents a comprehensive, systematic, and consistently applied process for determining the amounts of the ALLL and the provision for loan and lease losses. The Interagency Policy Statement on the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses, issued on December 13, 2006, encourages all banks to ensure controls are in place to consistently determine the ALLL in accordance with GAAP, the bank’s stated policies and procedures, management’s best judgment, and relevant supervisory guidance. Consistent with supervisory guidance, the Bank maintains a prudent and conservative, but not excessive, ALLL, that is at a level that is appropriate to cover estimated credit losses on individually evaluated loans determined to be impaired as well as estimated credit losses inherent in the remainder of the loan and lease portfolio. The Bank’s estimate of credit losses reflects consideration of all significant factors that affect the collectibility of the portfolio as of the evaluation date. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis – Critical Accounting Policies.”

Commercial Real Estate Lending. The Bank’s lending operations may be subject to enhanced scrutiny by federal banking regulators based on its concentration of commercial real estate loans. On December 6, 2006, the federal banking regulators issued final guidance to remind financial institutions of the risk posed by commercial real estate (“CRE”) lending concentrations. CRE loans generally include land development, construction loans, loans secured by multifamily property, and nonfarm, nonresidential real property where the primary source of repayment is derived from rental income associated with the property. The guidance prescribes the following guidelines for its examiners to help identify institutions that are potentially exposed to significant CRE risk and may warrant greater supervisory scrutiny:
| • | total reported loans for construction, land development and other land represent 100% or more of the institutions total capital, or |
| • | total commercial real estate loans represent 300% or more of the institution’s total capital, and the outstanding balance of the institution’s commercial real estate loan portfolio has increased by 50% or more. |
Other Regulations. Interest and other charges collected or contracted for by the Bank are subject to state usury laws and federal laws concerning interest rates. The Bank’s loan operations are subject to federal laws applicable to credit transactions, such as the:
| • | Truth-In-Lending Act, governing disclosures of credit terms to consumer borrowers; |
| • | Home Mortgage Disclosure Act of 1975, requiring financial institutions to provide information to enable the public and public officials to determine whether a financial institution is fulfilling its obligation to help meet the housing needs of the community it serves; |

The Dodd-Frank Act. On July 21, 2010, financial regulatory reform legislation entitled the “Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act” (the Dodd-Frank Act) was signed into law. The Dodd-Frank Act implements far-reaching changes across the financial regulatory landscape, including provisions that, among other things, will:
| • | Centralize significant aspects of consumer financial protection by creating a new agency, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, responsible for implementing, examining and enforcing compliance with federal consumer financial laws for institutions with more than $10 billion of assets and, to a lesser extent, smaller institutions. As a smaller institution, most consumer protection aspects of the Dodd-Frank Act will continue to be applied to the Company by the Federal Reserve and to the Bank by the FDIC. |
| • | Restrict the preemption of state law by federal law and disallow subsidiaries and affiliates of national banks from availing themselves of such preemption. |

| • | Apply the same leverage and risk-based capital requirements that apply to insured depository institutions to most bank holding companies. |
| • | Require bank holding companies and banks to be both well capitalized and well managed in order to acquire banks located outside their home state. |
| • | Change the assessment base for federal deposit insurance from the amount of insured deposits to consolidated assets less tangible capital, eliminate the ceiling on the size of the DIF and increase the floor of the size of the DIF. |
| • | Impose comprehensive regulation of the over-the-counter derivatives market, which would include certain provisions that would effectively prohibit insured depository institutions from conducting certain derivatives businesses in the institution itself. |

Many aspects of the Dodd-Frank Act are subject to rulemaking and will take effect over several years, making it difficult to anticipate the overall financial impact on the Company, its Bank subsidiary, its customers or the financial industry more generally.
Capital Adequacy
The Company and the Bank are required to comply with the capital adequacy standards established by the Federal Reserve, in the case of the Company, and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, in the case of the Bank. The Federal Reserve has established a risk-based and a leverage measure of capital adequacy for bank holding companies. Because the Company’s consolidated total assets are less than $500 million, under the Federal Reserve’s capital guidelines, our capital adequacy is measured on a bank-only basis, as opposed to a consolidated basis. The Bank is also subject to risk-based and leverage capital requirements adopted by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, which are substantially similar to those adopted by the Federal Reserve for bank holding companies.
The risk-based capital standards are designed to make regulatory capital requirements more sensitive to differences in risk profiles among banks and bank holding companies, to account for off-balance-sheet exposure, and to minimize disincentives for holding liquid assets. Assets and off-balance-sheet items, such as letters of credit and unfunded loan commitments, are assigned to broad risk categories, each with appropriate risk weights. The resulting capital ratios represent capital as a percentage of total risk-weighted assets and off-balance-sheet items.
The minimum guideline for the ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets is 8%. Total capital consists of two components, Tier 1 Capital and Tier 2 Capital. Tier 1 Capital generally consists of common stock, minority interests in the equity accounts of consolidated deposit institution subsidiaries, noncumulative perpetual preferred stock in consolidated non-depository subsidiaries, and a limited amount of qualifying cumulative perpetual preferred stock, less goodwill and other specified intangible assets. Tier 1 Capital must equal at least 4% of risk-weighted assets. Tier 2 Capital generally consists of subordinated debt, other preferred stock, and a limited amount of loan loss reserves. The total amount of Tier 2 Capital is limited to 100% of Tier 1 Capital. At December 31, 2010, our consolidated ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets was 19.8% and our consolidated ratio of Tier 1 Capital to risk-weighted assets was 18.6%.
10
Table of Contents
In addition, the Federal Reserve has established minimum leverage ratio guidelines for bank holding companies. These guidelines provide for a minimum ratio of Tier 1 Capital to average assets, less goodwill and other specified intangible assets, of 3% for bank holding companies that meet specified criteria, including having the highest regulatory rating and implementing the Federal Reserve’s risk-based capital measure for market risk. All other bank holding companies generally are required to maintain a leverage ratio of at least 4%. At December 31, 2010, our consolidated leverage ratio was 13.6%. The guidelines also provide that bank holding companies experiencing internal growth or making acquisitions will be expected to maintain strong capital positions substantially above the minimum supervisory levels without reliance on intangible assets. The Federal Reserve considers the leverage ratio and other indicators of capital strength in evaluating proposals for expansion or new activities.
Failure to meet capital guidelines could subject a bank or bank holding company to a variety of enforcement remedies, including issuance of a capital directive, the termination of deposit insurance by the FDIC, a prohibition on accepting brokered deposits, and certain other restrictions on its business. As described above, significant additional restrictions can be imposed on FDIC-insured depository institutions that fail to meet applicable capital requirements.
Payment of Dividends
The Company is a legal entity separate and distinct from the Bank. The principal sources of the Company’s cash flow, including cash flow to pay dividends to its shareholders, are dividends that the Bank pays its sole shareholder, the Company. Statutory and regulatory limitations apply to the Bank’s payment of dividends to the Company as well as to the Company’s payment of dividends to its shareholders.
The Bank is required by federal law to obtain prior approval of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency for payments of dividends if the total of all dividends declared by the Bank’s board of directors in any year will exceed (1) the total of the Bank’s net profits for that year, plus (2) the Bank’s retained net profits of the preceding two years, less any required transfers to surplus. The payment of dividends by the Company and the Bank may also be affected by other factors, such as the requirement to maintain adequate capital above regulatory guidelines. At December 31, 2010, the Bank could not pay cash dividends without prior regulatory approval.
If, in the opinion of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Bank were engaged in or about to engage in an unsafe or unsound practice, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency could require, after notice and a hearing, that the Bank stop or refrain from engaging in the practice. The federal banking agencies have indicated that paying dividends that deplete a depository institution’s capital base to an inadequate level would be an unsafe and unsound banking practice. Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991, a depository institution may not pay any dividend if payment would cause it to become undercapitalized or if it already is undercapitalized. Moreover, the federal agencies have issued policy statements that provide that bank holding companies and insured banks should generally only pay dividends out of current operating earnings.
Restrictions on Transactions with Affiliates
The Company and the Bank are subject to the provisions of Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act. Section 23A places limits on the amount of:
| • | a bank’s loans or extensions of credit to affiliates; |
| • | a bank’s investment in affiliates; |
| • | assets a bank may purchase from affiliates, except for real and personal property exempted by the Federal Reserve Board; |
| • | loans or extensions of credit to third parties collateralized by the securities or obligations of affiliates; and |
| • | a bank’s guarantee, acceptance, or letter of credit issued on behalf of an affiliate. |
The total amount of the above transactions is limited in amount, as to any one affiliate, to 10% of a bank’s capital and surplus and, as to all affiliates combined, to 20% of a bank’s capital and surplus. In addition to the limitation on the amount of these transactions, each of the above transactions must also meet specified collateral requirements. The Bank must also comply with other provisions designed to avoid the taking of low-quality assets.
The Company and the Bank are also subject to the provisions of Section 23B of the Federal Reserve Act which, among other things, prohibit an institution from engaging in the above transactions with affiliates unless the transactions are on terms substantially the same, or at least as favorable to the institution or its subsidiaries, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with nonaffiliated companies.

Table of Contents
The Bank is also subject to restrictions on extensions of credit to its executive officers, directors, principal shareholders, and their related interests. These extensions of credit (1) must be made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with third parties, and (2) must not involve more than the normal risk of repayment or present other unfavorable features.
Proposed Legislation and Regulatory Action
The Dodd-Frank Act is discussed above. Additional new regulations and statutes are regularly proposed that contain wide-ranging proposals for altering the structures, regulations, and competitive relationships of financial institutions operating and doing business in the United States. We cannot predict whether or in what form any proposed regulation or statute will be adopted or the extent to which our business may be affected by any new regulation or statute.
Effect of Governmental Monetary Policies
Our earnings are affected by domestic economic conditions and the monetary and fiscal policies of the United States government and its agencies. The Federal Reserve Bank’s monetary policies have had, and are likely to continue to have, an important impact on the operating results of commercial banks through its power to implement national monetary policy in order, among other things, to curb inflation or combat a recession. The monetary policies of the Federal Reserve affect the levels of bank loans, investments and deposits through its control over the issuance of United States government securities, its regulation of the discount rate applicable to member banks and its influence over reserve requirements to which member banks are subject. Neither the Company nor the Bank can predict the nature or impact of future changes in monetary and fiscal policies.
| ITEM 1A. | RISK FACTORS |
An investment in our common stock involves risks. If any of the following risks or other risks, which have not been identified or which we may believe are immaterial or unlikely, actually occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be harmed. In such a case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. The risks discussed below also include forward-looking statements, and our actual results may differ substantially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. The Risk Factors are not required for smaller reporting companies, however we believe this information is useful to our shareholders in the current economic environment.
We could suffer additional loan losses from declines in credit quality.
We could sustain additional losses if borrowers, guarantors, and related parties fail to perform in accordance with the terms of their loans. We have adopted underwriting and credit monitoring procedures and policies, including the establishment and review of the allowance for credit losses that we believe are appropriate to minimize this risk by assessing the likelihood of nonperformance, tracking loan performance and diversifying our credit portfolio. These policies and procedures, however, may not prevent unexpected losses that could materially adversely affect our results of operations.
If the value of real estate in our core market were to continue to decline materially, a significant portion of our loan portfolio could become under-collateralized, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
In addition to considering the financial strength and cash flow characteristics of borrowers, we often secure loans with real estate collateral. At December 31, 2010, approximately 84.2% of our loans had real estate as a primary or secondary component of collateral. The real estate collateral in each case provides an alternate source of repayment in the event of default by the borrower and may deteriorate in value during the time the credit is extended. In a market with reduced real estate values, our earnings and capital could be adversely affected if we are required to liquidate the collateral securing a loan to satisfy the debt. Consequently, a further decline in local economic conditions may have a greater effect on our earnings and capital than on the earnings and capital of larger financial institutions whose real estate loan portfolios are more geographically diverse.
Our allowance for loan losses may not be adequate to cover actual loan losses, which may require us to take a charge to our earnings and adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations.
We maintain an allowance for estimated loan losses that we believe is adequate for absorbing probable losses in our loan portfolio. Management determines the provision for loan losses based upon an analysis of general market conditions, credit quality of our loan portfolio, and performance of our customers relative to their financial obligations to us. We employ an outside vendor specializing in credit risk management to evaluate our loan portfolio for risk grading, which can result in changes in our allowance for estimated loan losses. The amount of future losses is susceptible to changes in economic, operating, and other conditions, including changes in interest rates, which may be beyond our control. These future losses
12
Table of Contents
may exceed the allowance for estimated loan losses. Although management believes that the allowance for estimated loan losses is adequate to absorb any probable losses on existing loans that may become uncollectible, there can be no assurance that the allowance will prove sufficient to cover actual loan losses in the future. Significant increases to the provision for loan losses may be necessary if material adverse changes in general economic conditions occur or the performance of our loan portfolio deteriorates. Additionally, federal banking regulators, as an integral part of their supervisory function, periodically review the allowance for estimated loan losses. If these regulatory agencies require us to increase the allowance for estimated loan losses, it would have a negative effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
As a community bank, losses on a few large loans or lending relationships can cause significant volatility in earnings.
Due to our limited size, individual loan values can be large relative to our earnings for a particular period. If a few relatively large loan relationships become non-performing in a period and we are required to increase our loan loss reserves, or to write off principal or interest relative to such loans, the operating results for that period could be significantly adversely affected. The effect on results of operations for any given period from a change in the performance of a relatively small number of loan relationships may be disproportionately larger than the impact of such loans on the quality of our overall loan portfolio.
Continued negative developments in the financial industry and the domestic credit markets may adversely affect our operations and results.
Negative developments starting in 2007 and 2008, which continued through 2009 and into 2010, in the global credit and derivative markets have resulted in uncertainty in the financial markets in general. As a result of this “credit crunch,” commercial as well as consumer loan portfolio performances have deteriorated at many institutions and the competition for deposits and quality loans has increased significantly. Global securities markets and bank holding company stock prices in particular, have been negatively affected, as has the ability of banks and bank holding companies to raise capital or borrow in the debt markets. If these negative trends continue, our business operations and financial results may be negatively affected.
The FDIC Deposit Insurance assessments that we are required to pay may materially increase in the future, which would have an adverse effect on our earnings.
The FDIC insures deposits at FDIC insured financial institutions, including the Bank. The FDIC charges insured financial institutions premiums to maintain the DIF at a certain level. Economic conditions since 2008 have increased the rate of bank failures and expectations for further bank failures, requiring the FDIC to make payments for insured deposits from the DIF and prepare for future payments from the DIF.
During 2009, the FDIC imposed a special deposit insurance assessment on all institutions which it regulates, including the Bank. This special assessment was imposed due to the need to replenish the DIF, as a result of increased bank failures and expected future bank failures. In addition, the FDIC required regulated institutions to prepay their fourth quarter 2009, and full year 2010, 2011 and 2012 assessments in December 2009. Any similar, additional measures taken by the FDIC to maintain or replenish the DIF may have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
On February 7, 2011, the FDIC adopted final rules to implement changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act with respect to the FDIC assessment rules that become effective April 1, 2011. A depository institution’s deposit insurance assessment is now calculated based on the institution’s total assets less tangible equity, rather than the previous base of total deposits. The Company expects that these changes will not increase the Company’s FDIC insurance assessments for comparable asset and deposit levels. However, if the Bank’s asset size increases or the FDIC takes other actions to replenish the DIF, the Bank’s FDIC insurance premiums could increase. During the year ended December 31, 2010, we paid $59,000 in deposit insurance assessments.
Competition from other financial institutions may adversely affect our profitability.
The banking business is highly competitive, and we experience strong competition from many other financial institutions. We compete with commercial banks, credit unions, savings and loan associations, mortgage banking firms, consumer finance companies, securities brokerage firms, insurance companies, money market funds, and other financial institutions, which operate in our primary market areas and elsewhere.
We compete with these institutions both in attracting deposits and in making loans. In addition, we have to attract our customer base from other existing financial institutions and from new residents. Many of our competitors are well established and much larger financial institutions. While we believe we can and do successfully compete with these other financial institutions in our markets, we may face a competitive disadvantage as a result of our smaller size and lack of geographic diversification. Although we compete by concentrating our marketing efforts in our primary market area with local advertisements, personal contacts, and greater flexibility in working with local customers, we can give no assurance that this strategy will be successful.

Table of Contents
We are subject to extensive regulation that could limit or restrict our activities and impose financial requirements or limitations on the conduct of our business, which limitations or restrictions could adversely affect our profitability.
As a bank holding company, we are primarily regulated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Our subsidiary bank is primarily regulated by the FDIC and the OCC. Our compliance with Federal Reserve Board, FDIC, and OCC regulations is costly and may limit our growth and restrict certain of our activities, including payment of dividends, mergers and acquisitions, investments, loans and interest rates charged, interest rates paid on deposits and locations of offices. We are also subject to the capital requirements of our regulators.
The laws and regulations applicable to the banking industry could change at any time, and we cannot predict the effects of these changes on our business and profitability. Because government regulation greatly affects the business and financial results of all commercial banks and bank holding companies, our cost of compliance could adversely affect our ability to operate profitably.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the related rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC that currently apply to us and the related exchange rules and regulations, have increased the scope, complexity and cost of corporate governance, reporting, and disclosure practices. Additional legislation or regulations, or amendments to current legislation or regulations, related to corporate governance, reporting, and disclosure may cause us to experience greater compliance costs.
The Dodd-Frank Act could increase our regulatory compliance burden and associated costs, place restrictions on certain current and future products and services, and limit our future capital raising strategies.
A wide range of regulatory initiatives directed at the financial services industry have been proposed in recent months. One of those initiatives, the Dodd-Frank Act, was signed into law on July 21, 2010. The Dodd-Frank Act represents a sweeping overhaul of the financial services industry within the United States and mandates significant changes in the financial regulatory landscape that will impact all financial institutions, including the Company. The Dodd-Frank Act will likely increase our regulatory compliance burden and may have a material adverse effect on us, by increasing the costs associated with our regulatory examinations and compliance measures. The federal regulatory agencies, and particularly bank regulatory agencies, are given significant discretion in drafting the Dodd-Frank Act’s implementing rules and regulations and, consequently, many of the details and much of the impact of the Dodd-Frank Act will depend on the final implementing rules and regulations. Accordingly, it remains too early to fully assess the impact of the Dodd-Frank Act and subsequent regulatory rulemaking processes on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Although the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has jurisdiction over banks with $10 billion or greater in assets, rules, regulations and policies issued by the Bureau may also apply to the Company or its subsidiary by virtue of the adoption of such policies and best practices by the Federal Reserve and OCC. The costs and limitations related to this additional regulatory agency and the limitations and restrictions that will be placed upon the Company with respect to its consumer product and service offerings have yet to be determined. However, these costs, limitations and restrictions may produce significant, material effects on our business, financial condition and results of operations
We are subject to liquidity risk in our operations.
Liquidity risk is the possibility of being unable, at a reasonable cost and within acceptable risk tolerances, to pay obligations as they come due, to capitalize on growth opportunities as they arise, or to pay regular dividends because of an inability to liquidate assets or obtain adequate funding on a timely basis. Liquidity is required to fund various obligations, including credit obligations to borrowers, mortgage originations, withdrawals by depositors, repayment of debt, dividends to shareholders, operating expenses, and capital expenditures. Liquidity is derived primarily from retail deposit growth and retention, principal and interest payments on loans and investment securities, net cash provided from operations, and access to other funding sources. Our access to funding sources in amounts adequate to finance our activities could be impaired by factors that affect us specifically or the financial services industry in general. Factors that could detrimentally affect our access to liquidity sources include a decrease in the level of our business activity due to a market downturn or adverse regulatory action against us. Our ability to borrow could also be impaired by factors that are not specific to us, such as a severe disruption in the financial markets or negative views and expectations about the prospects for the financial services industry as a whole, given the recent turmoil faced by banking organizations in the domestic and worldwide credit markets.

In December 2002, the Company completed its initial public offering of its common stock. This offering was registered under the Securities Act of 1933, and raised $5.4 million in net proceeds through the sale of 561,137 shares of common stock (equivalent to 841,706 shares adjusted for 3-for-2 stock split in September, 2006). Out of the net proceeds of the offering, $5.25 million was used to capitalize the Bank in exchange for 100% of its outstanding common stock as required by the Bank’s primary regulator. No unregistered securities of the Company were sold or issued during the period covered by this Report.
During the fourth quarter of 2006, the Company completed a rights offering and a public offering, selling 650,000 shares of its common stock. The offering was registered under the Securities act of 1933 and raised $4 million in net proceeds. The Company has and will continue to use the net proceeds from the offering to increase equity and subsequently the Bank’s legal lending limit and for general corporate purposes, including any potential future growth and expansion.
The Company’s common stock is traded on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol CNBV. To the Company’s knowledge, the last price at which our stock was sold was $1.54 per share on March 4, 2011. As of December 31, 2010, we had approximately 921 shareholders of record.

| ITEM 7. | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
The following discussion provides information about the major components of the results of operations and financial condition, liquidity, and capital resources of the Company. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Overview
The Company is headquartered in Windsor, Virginia and conducts its primary operations through its wholly owned subsidiary, Citizens National Bank. The Bank is a community bank serving the Town of Windsor, County of Isle of Wight, the Cities of Franklin and Suffolk, and portions of Southampton, Surry and Sussex Counties with one full service branch.
Like most financial institutions, our profitability depends largely upon net interest income, which is the difference between the interest received on earning assets, such as loans and investment securities, and the interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities, principally deposits and borrowings. Our results of operations are also affected by our provision for loan losses; non-interest expenses, such as salaries, employee benefits, and occupancy expenses; and non-interest income, such as mortgage loan fees and service charges on deposit accounts.
Economic conditions, competition and federal monetary and fiscal policies also affect financial institutions. The year 2010 continued to be a challenging year in margin management as we worked to balance asset repricing that occurs sooner than deposit repricing in a lower interest rate environment. In a normal slow rate decline as seen in many business cycles in the past, this process would be relatively straight forward, but in the worldwide economic downturn that surfaced in 2007 and has remained prevalent, we remain more challenged. While community banks like us for the most part have not been involved in subprime lending, we are exposed to a broad market reaction to the financial services industry which has lowered stock prices and negatively affected certain of the larger institutions that took part in sub-prime loans or utilized hedge funds relying on these loans. The economic environment that has been created has and may continue to influence the ability of some of our customers to repay their loans. The fast downward movement of interest rates may also influence our investment portfolio. The drop in rates may cause bonds to be called faster than normal, prompting close management attention to maintain the yield on the portfolio. Until rates stabilize, we will operate in an environment that will likely negatively influence our earnings in the short term.
As of December 31, 2010, the Company’s total assets were $49.3 million, consisting primarily of securities of $8.0 million, loans, net of allowance for loan losses, of $35.2 million and premises and equipment of $1.4 million. Comparatively, at December 31, 2009, total assets were $47.5 million, which consisted primarily of securities of $7.6 million, loans, net of allowance for loan losses, of $36.1 million and premises and equipment of $1.4 million. At December 31, 2010, total deposits were $42.5 million compared to total deposits at December 31, 2009 of $40.8 million. Interest bearing deposits at December 31, 2010 and 2009 were $39.8 million and $38.4 million, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company had net operating income before the provision for loan losses of $186,000 compared to $54,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009. Net income in 2010 of $95,000 increased from a net loss position of $1.1 million in 2009, which was due primarily to increased loan loss provisions and FDIC insurance premiums.
Critical Accounting Policies
The financial condition and results of operations presented in the consolidated financial statements, accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements and management’s discussion and analysis are, to a large degree, dependent upon the accounting policies of the Company. The selection and application of these accounting policies involve judgments, estimates, and uncertainties that are susceptible to change.
Presented below is a discussion of those accounting policies that management believes are the most important to the portrayal and understanding of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. These critical accounting policies require management’s most difficult, subjective and complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain. In the event that different assumptions or conditions were to prevail, and depending upon the severity of such changes, the possibility of materially different financial condition or results of operations is a reasonable likelihood.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The Company monitors and maintains an allowance for loan losses to absorb an estimate of probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The Company maintains policies and procedures that address the systems of controls over the following areas of maintenance in the allowance: the systematic methodology used to determine the appropriate level of the allowance to provide assurance they are maintained in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; the accounting policies for loan charge-offs and recoveries; the assessment and measurement of impairment in the loan portfolio; and the loan grading system.

Table of Contents
The Company evaluates various loans individually for impairments. Loans evaluated individually for impairment include non-performing loans, such as loans on non-accrual, loans past due by 90 days or more, restructured loans and other loans selected by management. The evaluations are based upon discounted expected cash flows or collateral valuations. If the evaluation shows that a loan is individually impaired, then a specific reserve is established for the amount of impairment.
For loans without individual measures of impairment, the Company makes estimates of losses for groups of loans. Loans are grouped by similar characteristics, including the type of loan, the assigned loan grade and general collateral type. A loss rate reflecting the expected loss inherent in a group of loans is derived based upon estimates of default rates for a given loan grade, the predominant collateral type for the group and the terms of the loan. The resulting estimate of losses for groups of loans are adjusted for relevant environmental factors and other conditions of the portfolio of loans and leases, including: borrower and industry concentrations; levels and trends in delinquencies, charge-offs and recoveries; changes in underwriting standards and risk selection; level of experience, ability and depth of lending management; peer group comparison; results of examinations and evaluations of the overall portfolio by senior management, external auditors, and regulatory examiners; and national and local economic conditions.
The Company recognizes the inherent imprecision in estimates of losses due to various uncertainties and variability related to the factors used, and therefore a reasonable range around the estimate of losses is derived and used to ascertain whether the allowance is adequate. The establishment of allowance factors is a continuing exercise and may change from period to period, resulting in an increase or decrease in the amount of provision or allowance based upon the same volume or classification of loans. If different assumptions or conditions were to prevail and it is determined that the allowance is not adequate to absorb the new estimate of probable losses, an additional provision for loan losses would be made, which amount may be material to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Accounting for Income Taxes
Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
The Company has recorded a 100% deferred tax valuation allowance related to various temporary differences, principally consisting of the provision for loan losses and its net operating loss carryforwards. Since the Company has only been in operation since April 29, 2003 and did not show a profit during 2003, 2004, 2005, or 2009, it is management’s opinion that it is prudent at this time to only recognize the deferred tax asset to the extent that income tax benefits are realized.
Results of Operations
Net Income (Loss)
It is normal for new banks to experience operating losses in their formative years through start up and operating expenses. The Company began experiencing sustainable operating income during 2006 and continued to post earnings in 2007 and 2008. However, the economic downturn that we are experiencing produced results which did and may continue to impact our earnings potential. For the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company’s net income was $95,000; $0.06 earnings per basic and diluted share. We were profitable in the first and second quarters of 2009, but our annualized earnings were negatively impacted by increased FDIC deposit insurance premiums, significantly higher provisions for loan losses, the impact of nonaccrual interest lost, and increased personnel costs, resulting in a net loss of $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. This represents a net loss per basic and diluted share of ($0.76). Return on average assets (ROA) measures how effectively the Company employs its assets to produce net income. For the year ended December 31, 2010, ROA was 0.20% compared to (2.45%) for the year ended December 31, 2009. Return on average equity (ROE), another measure of earnings performance, indicates the amount of net income earned in relation to the total equity capital invested. ROE for the year ended December 31, 2010 was 1.40% compared with (15.10%) for the year ended December 31, 2009. Average equity to average assets was 14.13% and 16.22% for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. During 2010, the Company reserved $91,000, a decrease of $1.1 million or 92.4% from the $1.2 million reserved during 2009. Net income from operations before the provision for loan losses was $186,000 for 2010 compared to $54,000 for 2009, an increase of 244.4%.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income, CNB’s primary source of consolidated earnings, is the amount by which interest generated from earning assets exceeds the expense of funding those assets. Changes in volume and mix of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities, as well as their respective yields and rates, have a significant impact on the level of net interest income. Other factors affecting net interest income included paying higher interest rates to attract depositors and extending credit with lower interest rates to attract borrowers. For the year ended December 31, 2010, interest income and interest expense were $2.8 million and $912,000, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2009, interest income was $3.0 million and interest expense was $1.1 million. Net interest income remained largely stable for 2010 at $1.9 million, increasing $59,000 or 3.2%, compared to $1.8 million for 2009.
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income has been and will continue to be an important factor for increasing profitability. Management recognizes this importance and continues to review and consider areas where non-interest income can be increased. Non-interest income for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $242,000, compared to $224,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009. The Company’s main sources of non-interest income for the year ended December 31, 2010 were $69,000 from non-sufficient fund/overdraft accounts, $8,000 from shares owned in a local title insurance agency, and $37,000 from debit card and ATM activity. Also during 2010, the Company realized gains of $99,000 on the disposition of securities. The primary sources of non-interest income for the year ended December 31, 2009 were $74,000 from non-sufficient fund/overdraft accounts, $11,000 from fixed rate mortgage brokerage fees, $12,000 from shares owned in a local title insurance agency, and $27,000 from debit card and ATM activity, and realized gains of $67,000 on disposition of securities.

Summary of Loan Loss Experience
The allowance for loan losses is an estimate of the amount that will be adequate to provide for potential losses in the Bank’s loan portfolio. Management’s methodology in evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses considers potential specific losses, as well as the volume, growth, composition, and loss history of the loan portfolio. General economic trends as well as any conditions affecting individual borrowers may also affect the level of loan losses. The allowance is periodically examined by bank regulators for adequacy. Examiners take into account factors such as the methodology used to calculate the allowance and the size of allowance in comparison to peer financial institutions.
The Bank’s Loan Committee and Board of Directors review problem loans monthly, including their effect on the allowance for loan losses. In management’s opinion, the allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb the current estimated risk of loss in the loan portfolio. The Company’s management continually evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, and changes in the provision are based on the analyzed inherent risk of the loan portfolio. The allowance is increased by the provision for loan losses and reduced by loans charged off, net of recoveries. The following table summarizes loans charged off, recoveries of loans previously charged off and additions to the reserve that have been charged to operating expense for the periods indicated. We have no lease financing or foreign loans.

Financial Condition
Summary
A financial institution’s primary sources of revenue are generated by its earning assets, while its major expenses are produced by the funding of those assets with interest-bearing liabilities. Effective management of these sources and uses of funds is essential in attaining profitability while maintaining an acceptable level of risk. At December 31, 2010, the Company had $49.3 million in total assets. Interest-earning assets were $47.3 million and interest-bearing liabilities were $39.8 million.
At December 31, 2009, the Company had $47.5 million in total assets. Interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities were $45.6 million and $38.4 million, respectively.
Loan Portfolio
CNB’s loan portfolio is its largest and most profitable component of earning assets, totaling 75.8% of interest-earning assets at December 31, 2010 and 80.7% at December 31, 2009. The Company, through the Bank, engages in a wide range of lending activities, which include one-to-four family and multi-family residential mortgage loans, commercial real estate loans, construction loans, land acquisition and development loans, consumer loans, and commercial business loans. CNB continues to emphasize loan portfolio growth and diversification as a means of increasing earnings while minimizing credit risk.

Loans are placed on non-accrual status when collection of principal and interest is doubtful, generally when a loan becomes 90 days past due. There are three negative implications for earnings when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. First, all interest accrued but unpaid at the date that the loan is placed on non-accrual status is either deducted from interest income or written off as a loss. Second, accruals of interest are discontinued until it becomes certain that both principal and interest can be repaid. Finally, there may be actual losses that may require that additional provision for loan losses be charged against earnings. For real estate loans, upon foreclosure, the balance of the loan is transferred to “Other Real Estate Owned” (OREO) and carried at the lower of the outstanding loan balance or the fair market value of the property less costs to sell based on current appraisals and other current market trends. If a write down of the OREO property is necessary at the time of foreclosure, the amount is charged-off against the allowance for loan losses. A review of the recorded property value is performed in conjunction with normal loan reviews, and if market conditions indicate that the recorded value exceeds the fair market value less costs to sell, additional write downs of the property value are charged directly to operations.
Nonperforming assets consist of non-accrual loans, loans restructured due to debtors’ financial difficulties, loans past due 90 days or more as to interest or principal and still accruing, and other real estate owned, which is real estate acquired through foreclosure and repossession. Non-accrual loans are those loans on which recognition of interest income has been discontinued. Restructured loans generally allow for an extension of the original repayment period or a reduction or deferral of interest or principal because of deterioration in the financial position of the borrower. Loans, whether secured or unsecured, are generally placed on non-accrual status when principal and/or interest is 90 days or more past due, or sooner if it is known or expected that the collection of all principal and/or interest is unlikely. Any loan past due 90 days or more, if not classified as non-accrual based on a determination of collectibility, is classified as a past-due loan. Other real estate owned is initially recorded at the lower of cost or estimated market value less costs to sell at the date of acquisition. A provision for estimated losses is recorded when a subsequent decline in value occurs.
At December 31, 2010, the Company had nonperforming assets of twelve loans on non-accrual totaling $1.8 million. Of these twelve loans, nine loans totaling $1.8 million were classified as impaired. Two loans, which were also non-accrual and impaired, totaling $437,000 were classified as doubtful for regulatory purposes, There were no loans delinquent 90 days or more and still accruing and no loans classified for regulatory purposes as loss. The Company had other real estate owned in the amount of $270,000. The Company had nonperforming assets of seven loans on non-accrual totaling $920,000 at December 31, 2009. Five loans totaling $919,000 classified as non-accrual were also classified as impaired. Four loans, two of which were also non-accrual and impaired, totaling $525,000 were also classified for regulatory purposes as doubtful. There were no loans delinquent 90 days or more and still accruing interest or classified for regulatory purposes as loss or other real estate owned. We have no loans in our portfolio to borrowers in foreign countries.
Loan concentrations exist when large amounts of money are loaned to multiple borrowers who would be similarly impacted by economic or other conditions. The loan portfolio is concentrated in various commercial, real estate and consumer loans to individuals and entities located in our primary service area. Accordingly, the ultimate collectibility of the loans is largely dependent upon economic conditions of our primary service area. Other than our geographic concentrations due to our physical location and the loan type concentrations as shown in the above table, we have no other concentrations of loans that exceed 10% of our total loan portfolio as of December 31, 2010.
We have no other interest-bearing assets that would be required to be disclosed as nonperforming assets if they were loans.

Securities Portfolio
The investment portfolio plays a primary role in the management of interest rate sensitivity of the Company and generates substantial interest income. In addition, the portfolio serves as a source of liquidity. Table 9 presents information pertaining to the composition of the securities portfolio. CNB manages its investment portfolio consistent with established policies that include guidelines for maturity distribution, rate sensitivity, and liquidity needs. The investment portfolio consists of securities available for sale, which may be sold in response to established policies. These securities are carried at estimated fair value, which was $7.8 million at December 31, 2010.

Deposits
Deposits are an important funding source and the primary supplier of CNB’s growth. The Company’s strategy has been to increase its core deposits at the same time that it controls its cost of funds. CNB’s deposit base is comprised of demand deposits, savings and money market accounts, time deposits and individual retirement accounts. These deposits are provided by individuals and businesses located within the communities served.
Table 10 presents the average deposit balances and average rates paid for the periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. Table 11 details maturities of certificates of deposit with balances of $100,000 or more at December 31, 2010.

Liquidity
Liquidity represents an institution’s ability to meet present and future financial obligations through either the sale or maturity of existing assets or the acquisition of additional funds through liability management. Liquid assets include cash, interest-bearing deposits with banks, federal funds sold, short-term investments, securities classified as available for sale as well as loans and securities maturing within one year. As a result of CNB’s management of liquid assets and the ability to generate liquidity through liability funding, management believes CNB maintains overall liquidity sufficient to satisfy its depositors’ requirements and meet its customers’ credit needs.
Although maintaining and increasing deposits will serve as the primary source of liquidity, CNB maintains additional sources of liquidity through a federal funds line with Community Bankers Bank. At December 31, 2010, cash, federal funds sold, securities available for sale, and loans maturing within one year were 56.3% of total deposits and liabilities.
The Company’s primary component of market risk is interest rate volatility. Fluctuations in interest rates will impact both the level of interest income and interest expense and the market value of the Company’s interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. The primary technique for managing interest rate risk exposure is management of the interest sensitivity gap. The interest sensitivity gap is defined as the difference between the amount of interest earning assets anticipated to mature or re-price within a specific time period and the amount of interest bearing liabilities anticipated to mature or re-price within that same time period. During a period of rising interest rates, a “positive gap” implies that net interest income would be positively affected because the yield of the Company’s interest earning assets is likely to rise more quickly than the cost of its interest bearing liabilities. In a period of falling interest rates, the opposite effect on net income is likely to occur. Table 12 sets forth the amounts of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities outstanding at December 31, 2010.

Capital Resources
The assessment of capital adequacy depends on a number of factors such as asset quality, liquidity, earnings performance, and changing competitive conditions and economic forces. Management reviews the adequacy of capital on an ongoing basis and seeks to maintain a structure that will assure an adequate level of capital to support anticipated asset growth and to absorb potential losses.
At December 31, 2010, consolidated shareholders’ equity was $6.7 million or 13.5% of total assets. At December 31, 2009, consolidated shareholder’s equity was $6.5 million or 13.7% of total assets. The Company’s common stock had a tangible book value of $4.44 per share at December 31, 2010 and $4.34 per share at December 31, 2009.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We are a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our customers. These financial instruments consist of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Standby letters of credit are written conditional commitments issued by a bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. A commitment involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets. Our exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the other party to the instrument is represented by the contractual notional amount of the instrument.
Because certain commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. We use the same credit policies in making commitments to extend credit as we do for on-balance-sheet instruments. Collateral held for commitments to extend credit varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant, equipment, and income-producing commercial properties.
Our off-balance-sheet financial instruments whose contract amounts represented credit risk as of December 31, 2010 were unfulfilled loan commitments of $2.9 million. The Company had no standby letters of credit as of December 31, 2010.
No losses are anticipated as a result of the foregoing commitments and we do not feel that they are reasonably likely to have a material effect on our consolidated financial condition.

CNB BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
| NOTE 1: | Organization and Significant Accounting Policies |
CNB Bancorp, Inc. (the Company) was organized on November 12, 2001 to serve as a Virginia bank holding company for Citizens National Bank (the Bank). The Bank was organized as a national bank under the laws of the United States of America to engage in a general banking business serving the community in and around Windsor, Virginia.
The Bank commenced regular operations on April 29, 2003 and is a member of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. It is subject to the regulations of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the State Corporation Commission of Virginia. Consequently, it undergoes periodic examinations by these regulatory authorities.
The accounting and reporting policies of the Company and its subsidiary conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and to general practices within the banking industry. The following is a summary of the more significant policies.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements of CNB Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiary Bank include the accounts of both companies. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates
In preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses fair value measurements and the valuation of net deferred tax assets and other real estate.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are purchased and sold for one-day periods.
Securities
Debt securities that management has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as “held to maturity” and recorded at amortized cost. Securities not classified as held to maturity, including equity securities with readily determinable fair values, are classified as “available for sale” and recorded at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in other comprehensive income. The Company had no securities classified as held to maturity at December 31, 2010 and 2009.
Purchase premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities. The Company accounts for the impairment of securities by specifying that (a) if the Company does not have the intent to sell a debt security prior to recovery and (b) it is more likely than not that it will not have to sell the debt security prior to recovery, the security would not be considered other-than-temporarily impaired unless there is a credit loss. When the Company does not intend to sell the security, and it more likely than not it will not have to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis, it will recognize the credit component of an other-than-temporary impairment of a debt security in earnings and the remaining portion in other comprehensive income. Gains and losses on the sale of securities are recorded on the trade date and are determined on the basis of the cost of the securities sold using the specific identification method.
Restricted Securities
The Company has elected to maintain an investment in the capital stock of certain correspondent banks. No ready market exists for this stock, and it has no quoted market value. The Company’s investment in these stocks is recorded at cost.
Restricted securities include Federal Reserve Bank and Community Bankers’ Bank stock.
31
Table of Contents
Loans
The Company’s subsidiary Bank grants mortgages, commercial and consumer loans to customers. A substantial portion of the loan portfolio is represented by mortgage loans throughout the Isle of Wight and Southampton counties of Virginia. The ability of debtors to honor their loan contracts is dependent upon the real estate and general economic conditions of this area.
Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off generally are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances less the allowance for loan losses. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance.
The accrual of interest on mortgage and commercial loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the credit is well-secured and in the process of collection. Personal loans are typically charged off no later than 180 days past due. In all cases, loans are placed on non-accrual or charged off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.
All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on non-accrual or charged off is reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans is accounted for using the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. Loan losses for each segment are charged against the allowance for loan losses for the difference between the carrying value of the loan and the estimated net realizable value or fair value of the collateral, if collateral dependent, when:
| • | Management believes that the collectability of the principal is unlikely regardless of delinquency status. |
| • | The loan is a consumer loan and is 120 days past due. |
| • | The loan is a non-consumer loan and is 180 days past due, unless the loan is well secured and recovery is probable. |
| • | The borrower is in bankruptcy, unless the debt has been reaffirmed, is well secured and recovery is probable. |
Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.
The allowance represents an amount that, in management’s judgment, will be adequate to absorb any losses on existing loans that may become uncollectible. Management’s judgment in determining the level of the allowance is based on evaluations of the collectability of loans while taking into consideration such factors as trends in delinquencies and charge-offs, changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions that may affect a borrower’s ability to repay and the value of collateral, overall portfolio quality and review of specific potential losses. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. The evaluation also considers the following risk characteristics of each loan segment:
| • | Consumer real estate loans carry risk associated with the continued credit-worthiness of the borrower and changes in the value of collateral. |
| • | Construction and land development loans carry risks that the project will not be finished according to schedule, the project will not be finished according to budget and the value of the collateral may, at any point in time, be less than the principal amount of the loan. Construction loans also bear the risk that the general contractor, who may or may not be a loan customer, may be unable to finish the construction project as planned because of financial pressure unrelated to the project. |
| • | Commercial – non real estate carry risks associated with continued successful operation of a business because the repayment of these loans is generally dependent upon the profitability and cash flows of the business. In addition, there is risk associated with the value of collateral other than real estate which may depreciate over time and cannot be appraised with as much precision. |
| • | Commercial real estate loans carry risks associated with the successful operation of a business or a real estate project, in addition to other risks associated with the ownership of real estate, because the repayment of these loans may be dependent upon the profitability and cash flows of the business or project, and changes in the value of collateral. |
32
Table of Contents
| • | Consumer – non real estate loans carry risks associated with the continued credit-worthiness of the borrower and the value of the collateral (e.g., rapidly-depreciating assets such as automobiles), or lack thereof. Consumer loans are more likely than real estate loans to be immediately adversely affected by job loss, divorce, illness or personal bankruptcy. |
The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as either doubtful or substandard. For such loans that are also classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. For collateral dependent loans, an updated appraisal will be ordered if a current one is not on file. Appraisals are performed by independent third-party appraisers with relevant industry experience. Adjustments to the appraised value may be made based on recent sales of comparable properties or general market conditions when appropriate. The general component covers non-classified, or performing loans, special mention loans, and those loans classified as substandard that are not impaired. The general component is based on historical loss experience adjusted for changes in the following qualitative factors: value of underlying collateral, lending policy/underwriting practices, national and local economic conditions, portfolio volume and nature, staff experience and depth, levels of past due, levels of non-accrual, portfolio quality, loan review/oversight, impact and effects of concentrations, legal matters, and competition. Non-impaired classified loans are assigned a higher allowance factor which increases with the severity of classification than non-classified loans. The characteristics of the loan ratings are as follows:
| • | Pass rated loans are to persons or business entities with an acceptable financial condition, appropriate collateral margins, appropriate cash flow to service the existing loan, and an appropriate leverage ratio. The borrower has paid all obligations as agreed and it is expected that this type of payment history will continue. When necessary, acceptable personal guarantors support the loan. |
| • | Special mention loans have a specific defined weakness in the borrower’s operations and the borrower’s ability to generate positive cash flow on a sustained basis. The borrower’s recent payment history is characterized by late payments. The Company’s risk exposure is mitigated by collateral supporting the loan. The collateral is considered to be well-margined, well maintained, accessible and readily marketable. |
| • | Substandard loans are considered to have specific and well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the viability of the Company’s credit extension. The payment history for the loan has been inconsistent and the expected or projected primary repayment source may be inadequate to service the loan. The estimated net liquidation value of the collateral pledged and/or ability of the personal guarantor(s) to pay the loan may not adequately protect the Company. There is a distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies associated with the loan are not corrected in the near term. A substandard loan would not automatically meet our definition of impaired unless the loan is significantly past due and the borrower’s performance and financial condition provide evidence that it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due. |
| • | Substandard nonaccrual loans have the same characteristics as substandard loans; however, they have a non-accrual classification. |
| • | Doubtful rated loans have all the weaknesses inherent in a loan that is classified substandard but with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. The possibility of loss is extremely high. |
| • | Loss rated loans are not considered collectible under normal circumstances and there is no realistic expectation for any future payment on the loan. Loss rated loans are fully charged off. |
A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company’s subsidiary bank will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. As of December 31, 2010, the Company did not have any loans classified as troubled debt restructurings.

Loan Fees and Costs
Loan origination and commitment fees and direct loan costs are being recognized as collected and incurred. The use of this method of recognition does not produce results that are materially different from results which would have been produced if such costs and fees were deferred and amortized as an adjustment of the loan yield over the life of the related loan.
Premises and Equipment
Land is carried at cost. Buildings and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation computed using a straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Estimated useful lives range from ten to forty years for buildings and from three to ten years for equipment, furniture, and fixtures. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred and major improvements are capitalized.
Foreclosed Property
Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale. They are initially recorded at the lower of the Bank’s cost or the assets’ fair market value at the date of foreclosure, less estimated selling costs thus establishing a new cost basis. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations of the assets are periodically performed by management. Adjustments are made to the lower of the carrying amount or fair market value of the assets less selling costs. Revenue and expenses from operations and valuation changes are included in net expenses from foreclosed assets. The Bank had foreclosed assets of $270,000 at December 31, 2010 and no foreclosed assets at December 31, 2009.
Income Taxes
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined using the balance sheet method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the tax effects of the temporary difference between the book and tax bases of the various balance sheet assets and liabilities and gives current recognition to changes in tax rates and laws. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits are classified as additional income taxes in the statements of income.
Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share represents income available to common shareholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income that would result from the assumed issuance. Potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate solely to outstanding stock options and warrants, and are determined using the treasury stock method.
Advertising Costs
The Company follows the policy of charging the costs of advertising to expense as incurred. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company expensed $12,000 and $20,000, respectively, for advertising costs.
Comprehensive Income
Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the consolidated balance sheet, such items, along with net income are components of comprehensive income.

Stock-Based Compensation Plan
The 2003 Stock Incentive Plan was approved by shareholders on August 12, 2003, which authorized 126,255 shares of common stock to be used in the granting of options to employees and directors, and which Plan was last amended by shareholder vote at a special meeting held November 17, 2005. An option’s maximum term is ten years from the date of grant. Options granted under the plan may be subject to a graded vesting schedule.
Applicable accounting guidance requires the costs resulting from all share-based payments be recognized in the financial statements. The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for stock options based on the grant date fair value of these awards as calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The cost is recognized over the period the employee is required to provide services for the award. No stock-based compensation was recognized during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 as no options or warrants were granted or vested.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods to conform to current year presentation.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new guidance relating to the accounting for transfers of financial assets. The new guidance, which was issued as SFAS No. 166, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets, an amendment to SFAS No. 140,” was adopted into the Accounting Standards Codification (Codification) in December 2009 through the issuance of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2009-16. The new standard provides guidance to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that an entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a transferor’s continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. ASU 2009-16 was effective for transfers on or after January 1, 2010. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In June 2009, the FASB issued new guidance relating to variable interest entities. The new guidance, which was issued as SFAS No. 167, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R),” was adopted into the Codification in December 2009. The objective of the guidance is to improve financial reporting by enterprises involved with variable interest entities and to provide more relevant and reliable information to users of financial statements. SFAS No. 167 was effective as of January 1, 2010. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-04, “Accounting for Various Topics – Technical Corrections to SEC Paragraphs.” ASU 2010-04 makes technical corrections to existing Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) guidance including the following topics: accounting for subsequent investments, termination of an interest rate swap, issuance of financial statements - subsequent events, use of residential method to value acquired assets other than goodwill, adjustments in assets and liabilities for holding gains and losses, and selections of discount rate used for measuring defined benefit obligation. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements.” ASU 2010-06 amends Subtopic 820-10 to clarify existing disclosures, require new disclosures, and includes conforming amendments to guidance on employers’ disclosures about postretirement benefit plan assets. ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-09, “Subsequent Events (Topic 855): Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements.” ASU 2010-09 addresses both the interaction of the requirements of Topic 855 with the SEC’s reporting requirements and the intended breadth of the reissuance disclosures provisions related to subsequent events. An entity that is an SEC filer is not required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. ASU 2010-09 was effective immediately. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-20, “Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses.” The new disclosure guidance significantly expands the existing requirements and will lead to greater transparency into a company’s exposure to credit losses from lending arrangements. The extensive new disclosures of information as of the end of a reporting period became effective for both interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. Specific disclosures regarding activity that occurred before the issuance of the ASU, such as the allowance roll forward and modification disclosures, will be required for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The Company has included the required disclosures in its consolidated financial statements.
On September 15, 2010, the SEC issued Release No. 33-9142, “Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In Exchange Act Periodic Reports of Non-Accelerated Filers.” This release issued a final rule adopting amendments to its rules and forms to conform them to Section 404(c) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (SOX), as added by Section 989G of the Dodd-Frank Act. SOX Section 404(c) provides that Section 404(b) shall not apply with respect to any audit report prepared for an issuer that is neither an accelerated filer nor a large accelerated filer as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Release No. 33-9142 was effective September 21, 2010.
On September 17, 2010, the SEC issued Release No. 33-9144, “Commission Guidance on Presentation of Liquidity and Capital Resources Disclosures in Management’s Discussion and Analysis.” This interpretive release is intended to improve discussion of liquidity and capital resources in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in order to facilitate understanding by investors of the liquidity and funding risks facing the registrant. This release was issued in conjunction with a proposed rule, “Short-Term Borrowings Disclosures,” that would require public companies to disclose additional information to investors about their short-term borrowing arrangements. Release No. 33-9144 became effective on September 28, 2010.
In January 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-01, “Deferral of the Effective Date of Disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructurings in Update No. 2010-20.” The amendments in this ASU temporarily delay the effective date of the disclosures about troubled debt restructurings in ASU 2010-20 for public entities. The delay is intended to allow the FASB time to complete its deliberations on what constitutes a troubled debt restructuring. The effective date of the new disclosures about troubled debt restructurings for public entities and the guidance for determining what constitutes a troubled debt restructuring will then be coordinated. Currently, that guidance is anticipated to be effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2011.
In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-29, “Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations.” The guidance requires pro forma disclosure for business combinations that occurred in the current reporting period as though the acquisition date for all business combinations that occurred during the year had been as of the beginning of the annual reporting period. If comparative financial statements are presented, the pro forma information should be reported as though the acquisition date for all business combinations that occurred during the current year had been as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period. ASU 2010-29 is effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of the new guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
The SEC has issued Final Rule No. 33-9002, “Interactive Data to Improve Financial Reporting,” which requires companies to submit financial statements in XBRL (extensible business reporting language) format with their SEC filings on a phased-in schedule. Large accelerated filers and foreign large accelerated filers using U.S. GAAP were required to provide interactive data reports starting with their first quarterly report for fiscal periods ending on or after June 15, 2010. All remaining filers are required to provide interactive data reports starting with their first quarterly report for fiscal periods ending on or after June 15, 2011.

At December 31, 2010 and 2009, securities with a carrying value of $802,000 and $538,000, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits and for other purposes required or permitted by law.
Proceeds from the sales, maturities and the calls of securities available for sale in 2010 and 2009 were $7.5 million and $5.7 million, respectively. During 2010 and 2009, the Company realized gains on the disposition of securities of $99,000 and $67,000, respectively.
The primary purpose of the investment portfolio is to generate income and meet liquidity needs of the Company through readily saleable financial instruments. The portfolio is made up of fixed rate bonds, whose prices move inversely with rates. At the end of any accounting period, the investment portfolio has unrealized gains and losses. The Company monitors the portfolio, which is subject to liquidity needs, market rate changes, and credit risk changes, to see if adjustments are needed. The primary concern in a loss situation is the credit quality of the business behind the instrument. The primary cause of impairments is the decline in the prices in the current rate environment. There were four accounts and ten accounts in the portfolio that had unrealized losses at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. These losses are relative to the market rates and the timing of purchases and are not due to credit concerns of the issuers as all accounts are classified as investment grade. The Company does not intend to sell these securities and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell these securities. Therefore, the Company did not recognize any other-than-temporary impairment losses for the years ended December 31, 2010 or 2009.

| NOTE 11: | Related Party Transactions |
Loans to directors and officers totaled $1,952,000 and $2,316,000 at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. New advances and repayments during 2010 equaled $122,000 and $486,000, respectively. All such loans are performing in accordance with their terms and were made on substantially the same terms as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with unrelated parties. Deposits of directors and officers totaled $507,000 and $524,000 at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
| NOTE 12: | Regulatory Requirements and Restrictions |
The Company (on a consolidated basis) and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s and Bank’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company’s and the
44
Table of Contents
Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (as set forth in the following table) of Total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, that the Company and the Bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject. As of December 31, 2010, the most recent notification from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, an institution must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the following table. There are no conditions or events since the notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category. The Company’s and Bank’s actual capital amounts (in thousands) and ratios as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 are also presented in the table.

| NOTE 13: | Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk and Credit Risk |
The Company is a party to credit related financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and commercial lines of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of these commitments. The same credit policies are used in making commitments as for on-balance-sheet instruments.
As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, reserves of $50,000 were required as deposits with Community Bankers Bank.
45
Table of Contents
Unfunded commitments under lines of credit are commitments for possible future extensions of credit to existing customers. Those lines of credit may not be drawn upon to the total extent to which the Company is committed. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had unfunded commitments under lines of credit of $2.9 million and $2.7 million, respectively.
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The Company evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment, and income-producing commercial properties. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company did not have any commitments to extend credit.
Commercial and standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those letters of credit are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. Essentially all letters of credit issued have expiration dates within one year. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Company generally holds collateral supporting those commitments, if deemed necessary. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company did not have any commercial or standby letters of credit.
The Company did not have deposits in financial institutions in excess of amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) at December 31, 2010 and 2009.
| NOTE 14: | Fair Value Measurements |
The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosure. In accordance with the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures topic of FASB ASC, the fair value of a financial instrument is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in many instances, there are no quoted market prices for the Company’s various financial instruments. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimate may not be realized in an immediate settlement of an instrument.
Fair value guidance provides a consistent definition of fair value, which focuses on exit price in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. If there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, a change in valuation technique or the use of multiple valuation techniques may be appropriate. In such instances, determining the price at which willing market participants would transact at the measurement date under current market conditions depends on the facts and circumstances and requires the use of significant judgment. The fair value is a reasonable point within the range that is most representative of fair value under current market conditions.
Fair Value Hierarchy
In accordance with this guidance, the Company groups its financial assets and financial liabilities generally measured at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value.
Level 1 – Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 1 assets and liabilities generally include debt and equity securities that are traded in an active exchange market. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Valuation is based on inputs other than quoted prices included with Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. The valuation may be based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in market that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 – Valuation is based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets of liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which determination of far value requires significant management judgment or estimation.
46
Table of Contents
A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the financial statements:
Securities available for sale. Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted market prices, when available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar securities for which significant assumptions are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable market data. Third party vendors compile prices from various sources and may determine the fair value of identical or similar securities by using pricing models that considers observable market data (Level 2). Restricted securities are recorded at cost based on the redemption provisions of the correspondent banks and therefore are not included in the following table.
The following tables present the balances of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2010 and 2009:

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Adjustments to the fair value of these assets usually result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs of individual assets.
The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the financial statements:
Impaired Loans. Loans are designated as impaired when, in the judgment of management based on current information and events, it is probable that all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement will not be collected. The measurement of loss associated with impaired loans can be based on either the observable market price of the loan or the fair value of the collateral. Fair value is measured based on the value of the collateral securing the loans. Collateral may be in the form of real estate or business assets including equipment, inventory, and accounts receivable. The vast majority of the collateral is real estate. The value of real estate collateral is determined utilizing an income or market valuation approach based on an appraisal conducted by an independent, licensed appraiser outside of the Company using observable market data (Level 2). However, if the collateral is a house or building in the process of construction or if an appraisal of the real estate property is over two years old, then the fair value is considered Level 3. The value of business equipment is based upon an outside appraisal if deemed significant, or the net book value on the applicable business financial statements if not considered significant using observable market data. Likewise, values for inventory and accounts receivables collateral are based on financial statement balances or aging reports (Level 3).
47
Table of Contents
Impaired loans allocated to the Allowance for Loan Losses are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Any fair value adjustments are recorded in the period incurred as provision for loan losses on the Consolidated Statements of
Operations.
The value of foreclosed real estate owned is determined utilizing an income or market valuation approach based on an appraisal conducted by and independent, licensed appraiser outside of the Company using observable market data (Level 2). Any fair value adjustments are recorded in the period incurred in the consolidated statements of operations.
The following table summarizes the Company’s financial assets that were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during the period.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:
Cash and Short-Term Investments. For those short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Securities. For securities, excluding restricted securities, fair values are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes. The carrying value of restricted securities approximates fair value based on the redemption provision of each issuer.
Loans. For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. The fair values of other loans were estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered.
Accrued Interest. The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair values.
Deposits. The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts, and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. For all other deposits, the fair value is determined using the discounted cash flow method. The discount rate was equal to the rate currently offered on similar products.
Unused Portions of Lines of Credit. The fair value of unused loan commitments is estimated considering the remaining terms of the agreement and the difference between the current levels of interest rate and the committed rate. The fair value of the unused portions of lines of credit is deemed immaterial.

The Company assumes interest rate risk (the risk that general interest rate levels will change) as a result of its normal operations. As a result, the fair values of the Company’s financial instruments will change when interest rate levels change, and that change may be either favorable or unfavorable to the Company. Management attempts to match maturities of assets and liabilities to the extent believed necessary to minimize interest rate risk. However, borrowers with fixed rate obligations are less likely to prepay in a rising rate environment and more likely to prepay in a falling rate environment. Conversely, depositors who are receiving fixed rates are more likely to withdraw funds before maturity in a rising rate environment and less likely to do so in a falling rate environment. Management monitors rate and maturities of assets and liabilities and attempts to minimize interest rate risk by adjusting terms of new loans and deposits and by investing in securities with terms that mitigate the Company’s overall interest rate risk.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
CNB Bancorp, Inc.
Windsor, Virginia
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of CNB Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiary as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of CNB Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiary as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Disclosure Controls
As of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (“Disclosure Controls”). Disclosure Controls, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Annual Report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure Controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our management, including the CEO and CFO, does not expect that our Disclosure Controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Based upon their controls evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our Disclosure Controls are effective at a reasonable assurance level.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, transactions are executed in accordance with appropriate management authorization and accounting records are reliable for the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010. Management based this assessment on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of our internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting. Management reviewed the results of its assessment with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors.
Based on this assessment, management believes that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
