The closures are expected to occur on or about September 3, 2021, as part of a strategic initiative to improve the Bank’s operating efficiency and promote the Company’s long-term sustainable growth. The decision was based on analysis of banking center activity, profitability and Community Reinvestment Act assessment. The closures will include banking centers located in Bucksville, Columbiana and south Tuscaloosa, Alabama, as well as Ewing, Virginia.

Customers who will be affected by the closures will receive a letter of notice from the Bank with guidance to assist in navigating expected changes in service, including transferring affected customer accounts to one of the Bank’s nearby banking offices.
