Disclosure Statement
Forward-Looking Statements
This investor presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995. These statements are not historical facts, but rather statements based on the Company's current
expectations regarding our business strategies and their intended results and future performance. Forward-looking
statements are preceded by terms such as "expects," "believes," "anticipates," "intends" and similar expressions, as well as
any statements related to future expectations of performance or conditional verbs, such as "will," "would," "should,"
"could," or "may."
Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. Numerous risks and uncertainties could cause or
contribute to the Company's actual results, performance, and achievements to be materially different from those expressed
or implied by the forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause or contribute to these differences include, without
limitation, the Company's failure to integrate National Bancshares and First National Bank in accordance with
expectations; deviations from performance expectations related to National Bancshares and First National Bank; general
economic conditions, including changes in market interest rates and changes in monetary and fiscal policies of the federal
government; legislative and regulatory changes; competitive conditions in the banking markets served by the Company's
subsidiaries; the adequacy of the allowance for losses on loans and the level of future provisions for losses on loans; and
other factors disclosed periodically in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Because of the risks and uncertainties inherent in forward-looking statements, readers are cautioned not to place undue
reliance on them, whether included in this report or made elsewhere from time to time by the Company or on the
Company's behalf. The Company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements.
