Item 2.01.    Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
 
On June 8, 2012, the Registrant's wholly owned subsidiary, Waccamaw Bank, Whiteville, North Carolina (the "Bank"), was closed by the North Carolina Office of the Commissioner of Banks and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC") was named receiver. No advance notice is given to the public when a financial institution is closed.

As a result of the closure and pursuant to the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, the Registrant has lost all rights with respect to the issued and outstanding shares of the Bank's common stock and preferred stock and such shares now have no value. The Registrant is no longer a bank holding company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956.

The FDIC, acting in its capacity as receiver, entered into a purchase and assumption agreement with First Community Bank, Bluefield, Virginia, whereby First Community Bank assumed all deposit liabilities and substantially all of the assets of the Bank. Each of the Bank's sixteen offices re-opened as offices of First Community Bank on June 11, 2012.
