Item 8.01. Other Events.

On December 7, 2016, Xenith Bankshares, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing a reverse stock split of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock at a ratio of 1-for-10 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). A copy of the press release announcing the Reverse Stock Split is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

The Reverse Stock Split was effective at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time on Tuesday, December 13, 2016 (the “Effective Time”). At the Effective Time, every 10 issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock were reclassified and converted into one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock. No fractional shares were issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. Rather, shareholders of fractional shares of the Company’s common stock will receive a cash payment at a price equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock as of the Effective Time.

As previously reported, at the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders on November 21, 2016, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the Company’s articles of incorporation to effect the Reverse Stock Split (the “Articles of Amendment”). A copy of the Articles of Amendment, as filed with the Virginia State Corporation Commission, is attached as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
