To Our Stockholders

Our top strategic priorities 

were to continue to 

dramatically reduce our  

level of problem assets, 

expand our loan and deposit 

relationships and continue 

reductions in noninterest 

expense.

A Year of Transition and Financial Progress

As we began 2012, we were 
optimistic that we could expand 
upon several positive trends we 
created at the end of 2011.   
We worked on continuing to 
decrease non-performing assets 
and noninterest expense, while 
expanding key profit drivers to 
build value.  We were also fully 
aware that many challenges still 
needed to be overcome.  We 
remained behind on dividend 
payments for our TARP 
investment, financial results were 
weak and we were subject to a 
formal enforcement agreement 
with our primary regulatory 
agencies.  However, we knew our 
objectives and we went to work 
to resolve these issues and put 
the Company on a solid path for 
future growth and strong 
profitability.  Our top strategic 
priorities were to continue to 
dramatically reduce our level of 
problem assets, expand our loan 
and deposit relationships and 
continue reductions in 
noninterest expense. 

We reduced total nonperforming 
non-covered loans by almost $9 
million over the course of the 
year.  The majority of the 
decrease came through 
resolution of problem loans in 
the construction, the land 

development and the non-owner 
occupied categories.  The ratio of 
nonperforming assets to loans 
and other real estate improved 
from 7.35% at the beginning of 
2012 to 5.52% at year end.  
Additionally, the ratio of the 
allowance for loan losses to 
nonaccrual loans was 61.38% at 
December 31, 2012 compared 
with 51.98% at December 31, 
2011.  The resolution of previous 
problem credits and the 
rebuilding of a strong credit 
culture carry positive results 
forward as we begin 2013.  These 
positive changes not only reduce 
the direct costs of remediation 
but also help to decrease credit 
related noninterest expense and 
allow our credit officers more 
time to build quality new 
customer relationships.

New relationships had solid 
growth for 2012 in both loans 
and deposits.   Total loans were 
$660.1 million at December 31, 
2012, increasing $17.8 million, or 
2.8%, from $642.3 million at 
December 31, 2011.   This growth 
was diversely spread by loan type 
and geographically among the 
entire footprint of the franchise.  
However, the competition for 
quality loans remains stiff in our 
marketplace, and this may affect 

As we look forward, we are 

excited what the future can 

hold for the Company.  Our 

lessons from the past have 

made us stronger and more 

prepared for the future.  

pricing and our net interest 
margin as we move through the 
year.

Building multiple account 
relationships and changing 
deposit mix are important for the 
Company as we move forward.  
2012 was a great start to doing 
just that.  Total deposits increased 
$40.8 million over the year.  
Interest bearing deposits at 
December 31, 2012 were $896.3 
million, an increase of 
$27.8 million from December 31, 
2011.  Low cost NOW accounts 
increased $14.2 million, or 11.0%, 
during 2012.  Noninterest 
bearing deposits were up over 
$13 million for the year, which 
helps lower the overall cost of 
funds.  Continuing this trend in 
our total deposit product mix is a 
major strategic directive for 2013 
and is the best way to help 
sustain our net interest margin in 
this extremely low rate 
environment.

Another area of focus has been 
to lower our overall noninterest 
expense.  Noninterest expenses 
were $39.6 million for 2012, a 
decline of $6.6 million, or 14.3%, 
when compared with 2011.  
Major decreases came from  
FDIC assessment, which was 
associated with the improvement 
in our risk profile, legal and 
professional fees, which declined 
as we resolved problem assets, 
and lower expenses for 
occupancy, salaries and data 
processing.  We continue to focus 
on operating efficiencies and 
expect further declines in 2013 
from system and operational 
consolidations and better use of 
existing technology.  All of these 
initiatives help us deliver better 
products and services to our 
customers at lower costs.

By working hard to accomplish 
these strategic initiatives, we 
were able to reach two important 
transitional points in 2012.  In 
August, we were able to make all 
outstanding TARP dividend 
payments, which brought us 
current in our obligation to the 

United States Department of the 
Treasury.  In December, we were 
completely released from the 
regulatory written agreement.   
By the time 2012 was over, we 
accomplished more than we had 
thought was possible in a year.

As we look forward, we are 
excited what the future can hold 
for the Company.  Our lessons 
from the past have made us 
stronger and more prepared for 
the future.  Despite a difficult 
interest rate environment and 
lagging economic segments,  
we feel confident that we can 
continue to consistently improve 
and build value.  Creating value 
in a difficult environment 
requires diversity in sales and 
delivery combined with 
discipline and efficiency in our 
core operations.  2012 showed 
that we have the people and the 
will to accomplish a vision of 
value for our customers, our 
employees and for you, our 
stockholders.  We appreciate your 
support and look forward to 
many more successes together.

 ITEM 1.  BUSINESS  

General  

PART I 

Community Bankers Trust Corporation (the “Company”) is a bank holding company that was incorporated under Delaware 
law  on  April 6,  2005.  The  Company  is  headquartered  in  Glen  Allen,  Virginia  and  is  the  holding  company  for  Essex  Bank  (the 
“Bank”),  a  Virginia  state  bank  with  24  full-service  offices  in  Virginia,  Maryland  and  Georgia.  The  Bank  also  operates  two  loan 
production offices in Virginia. 

The Bank was established in 1926 and is headquartered in Tappahannock, Virginia. The Bank engages in general commercial 
banking business and provides a wide range of financial services primarily to individuals and small businesses, including individual 
and commercial checking, savings and time deposit accounts, commercial and industrial loans, consumer and small business loans, 
real  estate  and  mortgage  loans,  investment  services,  on-line  and  mobile  banking  products,  and  safe  deposit  box  facilities.  Thirteen 
offices are located in Virginia, primarily from the Chesapeake Bay to just west of Richmond, seven are located in Maryland along the 
Baltimore-Washington corridor and four are located in the Atlanta, Georgia metropolitan market.   

Essex Services, Inc. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Bank and was formed to sell title insurance to the Bank’s mortgage 
loan  customers.  Essex  Services,  Inc.  also  offers  insurance  products  through  an  ownership  interest  in  Bankers  Insurance,  LLC  and 
investment products and alternatives through an affiliation with Infinex Investments, Inc. 

The  Company’s  corporate  headquarters  are  located  at  4235  Innslake  Drive,  Suite 200,  Glen  Allen,  Virginia  23060.  The 

telephone number of the corporate headquarters is (804) 934-9999.  

The Company’s common stock trades on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “ESXB”. 

Resolution of Regulatory Concerns 

On December 5, 2012, the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond and the Bureau of Financial Institutions of the Virginia State 
Corporation Commission terminated their written regulatory agreement with the Company and the Bank.  The parties had entered into 
the written agreement on April 21, 2011.  Under the terms of the written agreement, the Company and the Bank had committed to take 
certain  actions  to  strengthen  the  Company’s  and  the  Bank’s  risk  profile  and  operations  and  maintain  effective  control  over  and 
supervision of major operations and activities, with a focus on the Bank’s credit risk management and credit administration activities.  
The termination of the written agreement was the result of the Company and the Bank being in full compliance with its provisions, 
primarily through improvements in credit risk practices and the resolution of issues with non-performing assets. 

Strategy  

The  Company’s  strategy  is  to  be  recognized  as  the  premier  provider  of  financial  services  by  exceeding  the  service 
expectations  of  all  of  its  clients  and  stockholders  while  creating  a  rewarding  environment  for  its  associates.    The  Company  will 
accomplish  this  goal  while  operating  in  a  safe  and  sound  manner  to  provide  a  desirable  return  to  its  investors.    During  2012,  the 
Company  continued  its  focus  on  consolidating  and  strengthening  the  operating  procedures  and  overall  management  of  the  existing 
bank franchise and working through the requirements of the formal written agreement with its federal and state regulators from April 
2011. 

The Company has adopted and implemented a formal strategic plan that centers on consistent  growth in core profitability, 
while continuing with its objectives of strong credit risk practices and resolution of non-performing assets.  An aggressive decrease in 
non-performing loans has the ability to raise profitability significantly for the near term.  Additionally, the Company has identified 
three core new production competencies to improve on that will also increase income in the near term – consumer and small business 
banking,  commercial  and  industrial  lending  and  real  estate  lending.    The  Company  is  also  placing  less  focus  on  real  estate 
development  financing  to  consistently  reduce  the  existing  concentrations  in  that  area  of  the  Bank’s  loan  portfolio  given  the  risk 
exposure and  current economic conditions. Another large profit driver of the Company is the continued management of the shared 
loss  agreements  with  the  Federal  Deposit  Insurance  Corporation  (the  “FDIC”)  to  match  the  income  and  cost  component  with  the 
Company’s current operating strategy.   

The priorities and key initiatives outlined in the Company’s strategic plan, include the following specific priorities: 

•  Gaining operating efficiencies through centralization and affordable technology 

3 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
•  Ensuring  gains  in  competitive  market  share  through  specific  focus  in  its  current  markets  with  a  front-line  sales 

oriented culture focused on total relationship banking including low-cost deposits 

•  Looking at expansion into new markets 
•  Aggressively managing the loan portfolios and loans covered by the shared loss agreements with the FDIC 
•  Enhancing fee-income business lines, specifically mortgage and investment sales 
•  Exiting unprofitable markets and lines of business 
•  Continuing the implementation of risk management initiatives 

The Company believes that the continued successful execution on its strategies will enhance the major profit drivers of the 
Bank by increasing interest income and improving its efficiency and result in overall loan growth for better utilization of assets.    All 
of these factors will lead to an increase in profitability for stockholders. 

Operations 

The Bank’s operating strategy is delineated by business lines and by the functional support areas that help accomplish the 
stated goals and financial budget of the organization.  A major component of future income is growth in three core business lines – 
retail and small business banking, commercial and industrial banking and real estate lending.  These core businesses, combined with 
the Bank’s geographic locations, dictate the market position that the Bank needs to take to be successful.  The majority of new loan 
growth  will  occur  in  all  three  lines,  although  the  retail  segment  primarily  provides  the  funding  through  core  deposit  relationship 
growth. 

Retail and Small Business Banking  

The Bank markets to consumers in geographic areas around its branch network not only through existing bricks and mortar, 
but also with alternative delivery mechanisms and new product development such as online banking, remote deposit capture, mobile 
banking and telephonic banking.  In addition, the Bank attracts new customers by making its service through these distributions points 
convenient.  All of the Bank’s existing markets are prime targets for expanding the consumer side of its business with full loan and 
deposit  relationships,  and  the  Bank  has  restructured  its  retail  group  to  accommodate  growth.    In  addition,  the  Bank  is  focused  on 
potential growth in new market areas in which it currently operates loan production offices. 

Commercial and Industrial Banking 

In  the  commercial  and  industrial  banking  group,  the  Bank  focuses  on  small  to  mid-sized  business  customers  (sales  of  $5 
million to $15 million each year) who are not targeted by larger banks and for whom smaller community banks have no expertise.  
The Bank has an experienced team with a strong loan pipeline going into 2013.  The typical relationship consists of working capital 
lines and equipment loans with the primary deposit accounts of the customer.  Most of these relationships will be new to the Bank and 
create strong and positive growth potential. 

Commercial Real Estate Lending 

The Bank has historically held a significant concentration in real estate loans.  The current strategy is to manage the existing 
real estate acquisition, development and construction loans and add income producing property loans to the real estate portfolio.  The 
Bank originates both owner occupied and non-owner occupied borrowings where the cash flows provide significant debt coverage for 
the relationship. 

Competition  

Within  its  market  areas  in  Virginia,  Georgia  and  Maryland,  the  Bank  operates  in  a  highly  competitive  environment, 
competing  for  deposits  and  loans  with  commercial  corporations,  savings  banks  and  other  financial  institutions,  including  non-bank 
competitors,  many  of  which  possess  substantially  greater  financial  resources  than  those  available  to  the  Bank.  Many  of  these 
institutions  have  significantly  higher  lending  limits  than  the  Bank.  In  addition,  there  can  be  no  assurance  that  other  financial 
institutions, with substantially greater resources than the Bank, will not establish operations in its service area. The financial services 
industry remains highly competitive and is constantly evolving. 

The  activities  in  which  we  engage  are  highly  competitive.  Financial  institutions  such  as  credit  unions,  consumer  finance 
companies, insurance companies, brokerage companies and other financial institutions with varying degrees of regulatory restrictions 
compete  vigorously  for  a  share  of  the  financial  services  market.  Brokerage  and  insurance  companies  continue  to  become  more 
competitive in the financial services arena and pose an ever increasing challenge to banks. Legislative changes also greatly affect the 
level of competition that we face. Federal legislation allows credit unions to use their expanded membership capabilities, combined 
with tax-free status, to compete more fiercely for traditional bank business. The tax-free status granted to credit unions provides them 
4 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
a significant competitive advantage. Many of the largest banks operating in Virginia, Maryland and Georgia, including some of the 
largest banks in the country, have offices in our market areas. Many of these institutions have capital resources, broader geographic 
markets,  and  legal  lending  limits  substantially  in  excess  of  those  available  to  us.  We  face  competition  from  institutions  that  offer 
products and services that we do not or cannot currently offer. Some institutions with which we compete offer interest rate levels on 
loan and deposit products that we are unwilling to offer due to interest rate risk and overall profitability concerns. We expect the level 
of competition to increase.  

Factors such as rates offered on loan and deposit products, types of products offered, and the number and location of branch 
offices,  as  well  as  the  reputation  of  institutions  in  the  market,  affect  competition  for  loans  and  deposits.  The  Bank  emphasizes 
customer service, establishing long-term relationships with its customers, thereby creating customer loyalty, and providing adequate 
product lines for individuals and small to medium-sized business customers.  

The  Company  would  not  be  materially  or  adversely  impacted  by  the  loss  of  a  single  customer.  The  Company  is  not 

dependent upon a single or a few customers.  

Company History  

Formation and Initial Capitalization  

The  Company  was  initially  formed  as  a  special  purpose  acquisition  company  under  the  name  “Community  Bankers 
Acquisition  Corp.”  As  a  “Targeted  Acquisition  Corporation”SM  or  “TAC,”SM  the  Company  was  formed  to  effect  a  merger,  capital 
stock exchange, asset acquisition or other similar business combination with an operating business in the banking industry. Prior to its 
acquisition of two bank holding companies in 2008, the Company’s activities were limited to organizational matters, completing its 
initial  public  offering  and  seeking  and  evaluating  possible  business  combination  opportunities.  On  May 31,  2008,  the  Company 
acquired each of TransCommunity Financial Corporation, a Virginia corporation (“TFC”), and BOE Financial Services of Virginia, 
Inc., a Virginia corporation (“BOE”). The Company changed its corporate name in connection with the acquisitions.  

On  June 8,  2006,  the  Company  consummated  its  initial  public  offering  of  7,500,000 units,  which  commenced  trading  on 
NYSE  Amex  under  the  symbol  “BTC.U”.  Each  unit  consisted  of  one  share  of  common  stock  and  one  redeemable  common  stock 
purchase warrant. Each warrant entitled the holder to purchase from the Company one share of our common stock at an exercise price 
of $5.00 per share. The Company’s common stock and warrants started trading separately on NYSE Amex as of September 5, 2006, 
under the symbols “BTC” and “BTC.WS,” respectively. The warrants expired on June 4, 2011. 

The Company’s common stock has traded on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “ESXB” since March 14, 2013. 

Acquisitions of TFC and BOE  

On  May 31,  2008,  the  Company  acquired  TFC  in  a  merger  transaction.  In  connection  with  this  merger,  TransCommunity 
Bank, N.A., a wholly-owned subsidiary of TFC, became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Under the terms of the merger 
agreement, each share of TFC’s issued and outstanding common stock was converted into 1.4200 shares of the Company’s common 
stock.  

The  transaction  with  TFC  was  valued  at  $51.8 million.  Total  consideration  paid  to  TFC  shareholders  consisted  of 
6,544,840 shares  of  the  Company’s  common  stock  issued.  The  transaction  resulted  in  total  assets  acquired  as  of  May 31,  2008  of 
$267.6 million, including $243.3 million of loans, and liabilities assumed were $240.2 million, including $234.1 million of deposits. 
As a result of the merger, the Company recorded $20 million of goodwill and $5.3 million of core deposit intangibles.  

TFC  was  a  financial  holding  company  and  the  parent  company  of  TransCommunity  Bank,  N.A.  TFC  had  been  formed  in 
March 2001, principally in response to perceived opportunities resulting from the takeover in recent years of a number of Virginia-
based  banks by  national  and  regional  banking  institutions.  Until  June 29,  2007,  TFC  was  the holding  company  for four  separately-
chartered banking subsidiaries — Bank of Powhatan, Bank of Goochland, Bank of Louisa and Bank of Rockbridge. On June 29, 2007, 
these four subsidiaries were consolidated into a new TransCommunity Bank. Each former subsidiary then operated as a division of 
TransCommunity Bank, but retained its name and local identity in the community that it served. Following the Company’s acquisition 
of  TFC  until  2010,  the  former  branch  offices  of  TFC  operated  as  separate  divisions  under  the  Bank’s  charter,  using  the  names  of 
TFC’s former banking subsidiaries.  

In addition, on May 31, 2008, the Company acquired BOE in a merger transaction.  In connection with this merger, the Bank, 
then  a  wholly-owned  subsidiary  of  BOE,  became  a  wholly-owned  subsidiary  of  the  Company.  Under  the  terms  of  the  merger 
agreement, each share of BOE’s issued and outstanding common stock was converted into 5.7278 shares of the Company’s common 
stock.

The  transaction  with  BOE  was  valued  at  $54.6 million.  Total  consideration  paid  to  BOE  shareholders  consisted  of 
6,957,405 shares  of  the  Company’s  common  stock  issued.  This  transaction  resulted  in  total  assets  acquired  as  of  May 31,  2008  of 
$317.0 million, including $234.7 million of loans, and liabilities assumed were $288.6 million, including $257.4 million of deposits. 
As a result of the merger, the Company recorded $17.2 million of goodwill and $9.7 million of core deposit intangibles.  

BOE was incorporated under Virginia law in 2000 to become the holding company for the Bank.  

Both transactions were valued at a combined $106.4 million. The transactions resulted in total assets acquired as of May 31, 
2008  of  $584.5 million,  including $478.0 million  of  loans,  and  liabilities  assumed  were  $528.9 million,  including  $491.5 million  of 
deposits.  As  a  result  of  the  mergers,  the  Company  recorded  a  total  of  $37.2 million  of  goodwill  and  $15.0 million  of  core  deposit 
intangibles.  

Consolidation of Banking Operations  

Immediately  following  the  mergers  with  TFC  and  BOE,  the  Company  operated  TransCommunity  Bank  and  the  Bank  as 
separate banking subsidiaries. Effective July 31, 2008, TransCommunity Bank was consolidated into the Bank under the Bank’s state 
charter. As a result, the Company was a one-bank holding company as of the September 30, 2008 reporting date.  

Until 2010, TransCommunity Bank’s offices operated under the Bank of Goochland, Bank of Powhatan, Bank of Louisa and 

Bank of Rockbridge division names.  

Acquisition of Georgia Operations  

On  November 21,  2008,  the  Bank  acquired  certain  fixed  assets  and  assumed  all  deposit  liabilities  relating  to  four  former 
branch  offices  of  The  Community  Bank  (“TCB”),  a  Georgia  state-chartered  bank.  The  transaction  was  consummated  pursuant  to  a 
Purchase and Assumption Agreement, dated November 21, 2008, by and among the FDIC, as Receiver for The Community Bank and 
the Bank.  

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase and Assumption Agreement, the Bank assumed approximately $619 million in deposits, 
approximately  $233.9 million  of  which  were  deemed  to  be  core  deposits,  and  paid  the  FDIC  a  premium  of  1.36%  on  all  deposits, 
amounting to approximately $3.2 million. All deposits have been fully assumed, and all deposits insured prior to the closing of the 
transaction maintain their current insurance coverage. Other than loans fully secured by deposit accounts, the Bank did not purchase 
any loans.  

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase and Assumption Agreement, the Bank had 60 days to evaluate and, at its sole option, 
purchase  any of  the  remaining TCB  loans.  The  Bank purchased  175 loans  totaling  $21 million  on  January 9, 2009.  In  addition,  the 
Bank purchased the former banking premises of TCB. The transaction was accounted for as an asset purchase.  

Issuance of Preferred Stock  

On December 19, 2008, the Company issued 17,680 shares of its Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A 
(the “Series A Preferred Stock”) and a related common stock warrant to the United States Department of the Treasury for a total price 
of  $17,680,000.  The  issuance  and  receipt  of  proceeds  from  the  Department  of  the  Treasury  were  made  under  its  voluntary  Capital 
Purchase Program. The Series A Preferred Stock qualifies as Tier 1 capital.  

The  Series A  Preferred  Stock  has  a  liquidation  amount  per  share  equal  to  $1,000.  The  Series A  Preferred  Stock  pays 
cumulative dividends at a rate of 5% per year for the first five years and thereafter at a rate of 9% per year. The common stock warrant 
permits the Department of the Treasury to purchase 780,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.40 per share.  

In 2010, 2011 and 2012, the Company deferred various payments of its regular quarterly cash dividend with respect to the 
Series A Preferred Stock as it was in the process of resolving certain regulatory concerns.  The payment of dividends on the Series A 
Preferred Stock had also been subject to approval of the Company’s regulators, as set forth in the written agreement with them. 

As  of  December  31,  2012,  the  Company  was  current  in  its  payment  of  dividends,  each  in  the  amount  of  $221,000,  with 
respect to the Series A Preferred Stock.  In addition, all 17,680 shares of the Series A Preferred Stock remained outstanding as of that 
date.

Acquisition of Maryland Operations  

On January 30, 2009, the Bank acquired substantially all assets and assumed all deposit and certain other liabilities relating to 
seven  former  branch  offices  of  Suburban  Federal  Savings  Bank,  Crofton,  Maryland  (“SFSB”).  The  transaction  was  consummated 
pursuant to a Purchase and Assumption Agreement, dated January 30, 2009, by and among the FDIC, as Receiver for SFSB and the 
Bank. 

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase and Assumption Agreement, the Bank assumed approximately $303 million in deposits, 
all of which were deemed to be core deposits. The Bank purchased approximately $362 million in loans (based on contract value) and 
other assets. The Bank has entered into a shared loss arrangement with the FDIC with respect to loans and real estate assets acquired. 
These  are  referred  to  as  covered  assets.  All  deposits  have  been  fully  assumed,  and  all  deposits  maintain  their  current  insurance 
coverage. The Bank bid a negative $45 million for the net assets acquired. 

Employees  

As of December 31, 2012, the Company had approximately 273 full-time equivalent employees, including executive officers, 
loan  and  other  banking  officers,  branch  personnel,  operations  personnel  and  other  support  personnel.  None  of  the  Company’s 
employees is represented by a union or covered under a collective bargaining agreement. Management of the Company considers its 
employee relations to be excellent.  

Available Information  

The Company files with or furnishes to the Securities and Exchange Commission annual, quarterly and current reports, proxy 
statements, and various other documents under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The public 
may read and copy any materials that the Company files with or furnishes to the SEC at the SEC’s Public Reference Room, which is 
located  at  100 F Street, NE, Washington, D.C.  20549.  The  public  may  obtain  information  on  the  operation of  the Public  Reference 
Room by calling the SEC at (800) SEC-0330. Also, the SEC maintains an internet website at www.sec.gov that contains reports, proxy 
and  information  statements  and  other  information  regarding  registrants,  including  the  Company,  that  file  or  furnish  documents 
electronically with the SEC.  

The Company also makes available free of charge on or through our internet website (www.cbtrustcorp.com) its annual report 
on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and, if applicable, amendments to those reports as filed 
or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act as soon as reasonably practicable after the Company electronically files 
such materials with, or furnishes them to, the SEC.  

Supervision and Regulation  

General  

As a bank holding company, we are subject to regulation under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the 
“BHCA”), and the examination and reporting requirements of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal 
Reserve”).  Other  federal  and  state  laws  govern  the  activities  of  the  Bank,  including  the  activities  in  which  it  may  engage,  the 
investments that it makes, the aggregate amount of loans that it may grant to one borrower, and the dividends it may declare and pay 
to us. The Bank is also subject to various consumer and compliance laws. As a state-chartered bank, the Bank is primarily subject to 
regulation,  supervision  and  examination  by  the  Bureau of  Financial  Institutions  of  the  Virginia  State  Corporation  Commission  (the 
“SCC”). The Bank also is subject to regulation, supervision and examination by the Federal Reserve and the FDIC.  

The  following  description  discusses  certain  provisions  of  federal  and  state  laws  and  certain  regulations  and  the  potential 
impact of such provisions on the Company and the Bank. These federal and state laws and regulations have been enacted generally for 
the protection of depositors in banks and not for the protection of stockholders of bank holding companies or banks.  

Bank Holding Companies  

The  Company  is  registered  as  a  bank  holding  company  under  the  BHCA  and,  as  a  result,  is  subject  to  regulation  by  the 
Federal  Reserve.  The  Federal  Reserve  has  jurisdiction  under  the  BHCA  to  approve  any  bank  or  nonbank  acquisition,  merger  or 
consolidation  proposed  by  a  bank  holding  company.  The  BHCA  generally  limits  the  activities  of  a  bank  holding  company  and  its 
subsidiaries  to  that  of  banking,  managing  or  controlling  banks,  or  any  other  activity  that  is  so  closely  related  to  banking  or  to 
managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident to it. Under the BHCA, the Company is subject to periodic examination by 
the  Federal  Reserve  and  is  required  to file periodic reports  regarding  its  operations  and  any  additional  information  that  the  Federal 
Reserve may require.

Federal  law  permits  bank  holding  companies  from  any  state  to  acquire  banks  and  bank  holding  companies  located  in  any 
other state. The law allows interstate bank mergers, subject to “opt-in or opt-out” action by individual states. Virginia adopted early 
“opt-in” legislation that allows interstate bank mergers. These laws also permit interstate branch acquisitions and de novo branching in 
Virginia by out-of-state banks if reciprocal treatment is accorded Virginia banks in the state of the acquirer.  

There  are  a  number  of  obligations  and  restrictions  imposed  on  bank  holding  companies  and  their  depository  institution 
subsidiaries by federal law and regulatory policy that are designed to reduce potential loss exposure to the depositor of such depository 
institutions  and  to  the  FDIC  insurance  fund  in  the  event  the  depository  institution  becomes  in  danger  of  default  or  in  default.  For 
example, under a policy of the Federal Reserve with respect to bank holding company operations, a bank holding company is required 
to serve as a source of financial strength to its subsidiary depository institutions and to commit resources to support such institutions in 
circumstances where it might not do so otherwise.  

The Federal Deposit Insurance Act (“FDIA”) also provides that amounts received from the liquidation or other resolution of 
any insured depository institution by any receiver must be distributed (after payment of secured claims) to pay the deposit liabilities of 
the  institution  prior  to  payment  of  any  other  general  or  unsecured  senior  liability,  subordinated  liability,  general  creditor  or 
stockholders in the event that a receiver is appointed to distribute the assets of the Bank.  

The Company was required to register in Virginia with the State Corporation Commission (the “SCC”) under the financial 

institution holding company laws of Virginia. Accordingly, the Company is subject to regulation and supervision by the SCC.  

The Dodd-Frank Act   

In July 2010, President Obama signed into law the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 
(the “Dodd-Frank Act”). The Dodd-Frank Act significantly restructures the financial regulatory regime in the United States and has a 
broad impact on the financial services industry. While some rulemaking under the Dodd-Frank Act has occurred, many of the act’s 
provisions require study or rulemaking by federal agencies, a process which will take years to implement fully.  

Among other things, the Dodd-Frank Act provides for new capital standards that eliminate the treatment of trust preferred 
securities as Tier 1 capital. Existing trust preferred securities are grandfathered for banking entities with less than $15 billion of assets, 
such  as  the  Company.  The  Dodd-Frank  Act  permanently  raises  deposit  insurance  levels  to  $250,000,  and  until  December 31,  2012 
provided unlimited deposit insurance coverage for transaction accounts. Pursuant to modifications under the Dodd-Frank Act, deposit 
insurance  assessments  will  be  calculated  based  on  an  insured  depository  institution’s assets  rather  than  its  insured  deposits  and  the 
minimum reserve ratio of the FDIC’s Deposit Insurance Fund is to be raised to 1.35%. The payment of interest on business demand 
deposit accounts is permitted by the Dodd-Frank Act. Further, the Dodd-Frank Act bars banking organizations, such as the Company, 
from engaging in proprietary trading and from sponsoring and investing in hedge funds and private equity funds, except as permitted 
under certain limited circumstances. 

The  Dodd-Frank  Act  established  the  Consumer  Financial  Protection  Bureau  (“CFPB”)  as  an  independent  bureau  of  the 
Federal  Reserve  System.  The  CFPB  has  the  exclusive  authority  to  prescribe  rules  governing  the  provision  of  consumer  financial 
products and services, which in the case of the Bank will be enforced by the Federal Reserve. The Dodd-Frank Act also provides that 
debit card interchange fees must be reasonable and proportional to the cost incurred by the card issuer with respect to the transaction. 
This provision is known as the “Durbin Amendment.” In June 2011, the Federal Reserve adopted regulations setting the maximum 
permissible interchange fee as the sum of 21 cents per transaction and 5 basis points multiplied by the value of the transaction, with an 
additional  adjustment  of  up  to  one  cent  per  transaction  if  the  card  issuer  implements  certain  fraud-prevention  standards.  The 
interchange fee restriction only applies to financial institutions with assets of $10 billion or more and therefore has no effect on the 
Company.  

The Dodd-Frank Act enhances the  requirements for certain transactions with affiliates under Sections 23A and 23B of the 
Federal  Reserve  Act,  including  an  expansion  of  the  definition  of  “covered  transactions”  and  an  increase  in  the  amount  of  time  for 
which  collateral  requirements  regarding  covered  transactions  must  be  maintained.  These  requirements  became  effective  on  July 21, 
2011. The Dodd-Frank Act also provides that the appropriate federal regulators must establish standards prohibiting as an unsafe and 
unsound practice any compensation plan of a bank holding company or other “covered financial institution” that provides an insider or 
other employee with “excessive compensation” or compensation that gives rise to excessive risk or could lead to a material financial 
loss to such firm. In June 2010, prior to the Dodd-Frank Act, the bank regulatory agencies promulgated the Interagency Guidance on 
Sound  Incentive  Compensation  Policies,  which  requires  that  financial  institutions  establish  metrics  for  measuring  the  impact  of 
activities to achieve incentive compensation with the related risk to the financial institution of such behavior.  

Although a significant number of the rules and regulations mandated by the Dodd-Frank Act have been finalized, many of the 
new requirements have yet to be implemented and will likely be subject to implementing regulations over the course of several years.

Given the uncertainty associated with the manner in which the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act will be implemented by the various 
regulatory  agencies,  the  full  extent  of  the  impact  such  requirements  will  have  on  the  operations  of  the  Company  and  the  Bank  is 
unclear. The changes resulting from the Dodd-Frank Act may affect the profitability of business activities, require changes to certain 
business practices, impose more stringent capital requirements, liquidity and leverage ratio requirements, or otherwise adversely affect 
the business of the Company and the Bank. These changes may also require the Company to invest significant management attention 
and resources to evaluate and make necessary changes to comply with new statutory and regulatory requirements.  

Capital Requirements and Dividends 

The  Federal  Reserve  has  issued  risk-based  and  leverage  capital  guidelines  applicable  to  banking  organizations  that  it 
supervises. Under the risk-based capital requirements, the Company and the Bank are each generally required to maintain a minimum 
ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets (including certain off-balance sheet activities, such as standby letters of credit) of 8%. At 
least  half  of  the  total  capital  must  be  composed  of  “Tier 1  Capital,”  which  is  defined  as  common  equity,  retained  earnings  and 
qualifying  perpetual  preferred  stock,  less  certain  intangibles.  The  remainder  may  consist  of  “Tier 2  Capital,”  which  is  defined  as 
specific subordinated debt, some hybrid capital instruments and other qualifying preferred stock and a limited amount of the loan loss 
allowance.  In  addition,  each  of  the  federal  banking  regulatory  agencies  has  established  minimum  leverage  capital  requirements  for 
banking organizations. Under these requirements, banking organizations must maintain a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to adjusted 
average  quarterly  assets  equal  to  3%  to  5%,  subject  to  federal  bank  regulatory  evaluation  of  an  organization’s  overall  safety  and 
soundness. In summary, the capital measures used by the federal banking regulators are:  

•  Total  risk-based  capital  ratio,  which  is  the  total  of  Tier 1  Capital  and  Tier 2  Capital  as  a  percentage  of  total  risk-

weighted assets;  

•  Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, which is Tier 1 Capital as a percentage of total risk-weighted assets; and  
•  Leverage ratio, which is Tier 1 Capital as a percentage of adjusted average total assets.  

Under these regulations, a bank will be:  

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

“Well capitalized” if it has a total risk-based capital ratio of 10% or greater, a tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6% or 
greater,  a  leverage  ratio  of  5%  or  greater,  and  is  not  subject  to  any  written  agreement,  order,  capital  directive,  or 
prompt corrective action directive by a federal bank regulatory agency to meet and maintain a specific capital level 
for any capital measure;  
“Adequately capitalized” if it has a total risk-based capital ratio of 8% or greater, a tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 
4% or greater, and a leverage ratio of 4% or greater — or 3% in certain circumstances — and is not well capitalized;  
“Undercapitalized” if it has a total risk-based capital ratio of less than 8% or greater, a tier 1 risk-based capital ratio 
of less than 4%, and a leverage ratio of less than 4% — or 3% in certain circumstances;  
“Significantly undercapitalized” if it has a total risk-based capital ratio of less than 6%, a tier 1 risk-based capital 
ratio of less than 3%, or a leverage ratio of less than 3%; or  
“Critically undercapitalized” if its tangible equity is equal to or less than 2% of average quarterly tangible assets.  

The risk-based capital standards of the Federal Reserve explicitly identify concentrations of credit risk and the risk arising 
from non-traditional activities, as well as an institution’s ability to manage these risks, as important factors to be taken into account by 
the agency in assessing an institution’s overall capital adequacy. The capital guidelines also provide that an institution’s exposure to a 
decline in the economic value of its capital due to changes in interest rates be considered by the agency as a factor in evaluating a 
banking organization’s capital adequacy.  

The  FDIC  may  take  various  corrective  actions  against  any  undercapitalized  bank  and  any  bank  that  fails  to  submit  an 
acceptable capital restoration plan or fails to implement a plan accepted by the FDIC. These powers include, but are not limited to, 
requiring the institution to be recapitalized, prohibiting asset growth, restricting interest rates paid, requiring prior approval of capital 
distributions by any bank holding company that controls the institution, requiring divestiture by the institution of its subsidiaries or by 
the holding company of the institution itself, requiring new election of directors, and requiring the dismissal of directors and officers. 
The Bank presently maintains sufficient capital to remain in compliance with these capital requirements.  

The  Company  is  a  legal  entity  separate  and  distinct  from  the  Bank.  Virtually  all  of  the  Company’s  revenues  are  from 
dividends paid to the Company by the Bank. The Bank is subject to laws and regulations that limit the amount of dividends it can pay. 
In  addition,  both  the  Company  and  the  Bank  are  subject  to  various  regulatory  restrictions  relating  to  the  payment  of  dividends, 
including  requirements  to  maintain  capital  at  or  above  regulatory  minimums.  Banking  regulators  have  indicated  that  banking 
organizations should generally pay dividends only if the organization’s net income available to common shareholders over the past 
year  has  been  sufficient  to  fully  fund  the  dividends  and  the  prospective  rate  of  earnings  retention  appears  consistent  with  the 
organization’s capital needs, asset quality and overall financial condition.

The  FDIC  has  the  general  authority  to  limit  the  dividends  paid  by  insured  banks  if  the  payment  is  deemed  an  unsafe  and 
unsound practice. The FDIC has indicated that paying dividends that deplete a bank’s capital base to an inadequate level would be an 
unsound and unsafe banking practice.  

Proposed Changes in Capital Requirements 

In June 2012, the Federal Reserve and the FDIC jointly issued proposed rules that would revise the risk-based and leverage 
capital requirements and the method for calculating risk-weighted assets to be consistent with the agreements reached by the Basel 
Committee on Banking Supervision in “Basel III: A Global Regulatory Framework for More Resilient Banks and Banking Systems” 
(“Basel III”) and certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. The proposed rules would apply to all depository institutions, top-tier bank 
holding companies with total consolidated assets of $500 million or more, and top-tier savings and loan holding companies (“banking 
organizations”). 

Among  other  things,  the  proposed  rules  establish  a  new  common  equity  tier 1  (“CET1”)  minimum  capital  requirement, 
introduce a “capital conservation buffer” and raise minimum risk-based capital requirements. Basel III establishes the CET1 to risk-
weighted assets to 4.5%, and a capital conservation buffer of an additional 2.5%, raising the target CET1 to risk-weighted assets ratio 
to  7%.  It  requires  banks  to  maintain  a  minimum  ratio  of  Tier 1  Capital  to  risk  weighted  assets  of  at  least  6.0%,  plus  the  capital 
conservation buffer effectively resulting in Tier 1 Capital ratio of 8.5%. Basel III increases the minimum total capital ratio to 8.0% 
plus the capital conservation buffer, increasing the minimum total capital ratio to 10.5%. Institutions that do not maintain the required 
capital  buffer  would  be  subject  to  progressively  more  stringent  limitations  on  the  percentage  of  earnings  that  can  be  paid  out  in 
dividends or used for stock repurchases and on the payment of discretionary bonuses to senior executive management. Basel III also 
introduces  a  non-risk  adjusted  tier 1  leverage  ratio  of  3%,  based  on  a  measure  of  total  exposure  rather  than  total  assets,  and  new 
liquidity  standards.  Additionally,  the  U.S.  implementation  of  Basel  III  contemplates  that,  for  banking  organizations  with  less  than 
$15 billion in assets, the ability to treat trust preferred securities as Tier 1 Capital would be phased out over a ten-year period. 

The proposed rules also introduce new methodologies for determining risk-weighted assets, including higher risk weightings 
(150%) to exposures that are more than 90 days past due or are on nonaccrual status and certain commercial real estate facilities that 
finance the acquisition, development or construction of real property. The proposed rules also require unrealized gains and losses on 
certain securities holdings to be included for purposes of calculating regulatory capital requirements. The proposed rules indicate that 
the final rule would become effective on January 1, 2013, and the changes set forth in the final rules will be phased in from January 1, 
2013 through January 1, 2019. However, the regulatory agencies have recently indicated that, due to the volume of public comments 
received, the final rule would not be in effect on January 1, 2013 and implementation has been delayed indefinitely. 

Deposit Insurance  

The  Bank’s  deposits  are  insured  by  the  Deposit  Insurance  Fund  (the  “DIF”)  of  the  FDIC  up  to  the  standard  maximum 
insurance amount for each deposit insurance ownership category. As of January 1, 2013, the basic limit on FDIC deposit insurance 
coverage is $250,000 per depositor. Under the FDIA, the FDIC may terminate deposit insurance upon a finding that the institution has 
engaged in unsafe and unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations, or has violated any applicable 
law,  regulation,  rule,  order  or  condition  imposed  by  the  FDIC,  subject  to  administrative  and  potential  judicial  hearing  and  review 
processes. 

The  DIF  is  funded  by  assessments  on  banks  and  other  depository  institutions.  As  required  by  the  Dodd-Frank  Act,  in 
February  2011,  the  FDIC  approved  a  final  rule  that  changed  the  assessment  base  for  DIF  assessments  from  domestic  deposits  to 
average consolidated total assets minus average tangible equity (defined as Tier 1 capital). In addition, as also required by the Dodd-
Frank Act, the FDIC has adopted a new large-bank pricing assessment scheme, set a target “designated reserve ratio” (described in 
more  detail  below)  of  2  percent  for  the  DIF  and  established  a  lower  assessment  rate  schedule  when  the  reserve  ratio  reaches  1.15 
percent  and,  in  lieu  of  dividends,  provides  for  a  lower  assessment  rate  schedule,  when  the  reserve  ratio  reaches  2  percent  and  2.5 
percent.  An  institution’s  assessment  rate  depends  upon  the  institution’s  assigned  risk  category,  which  is  based  on  supervisory 
evaluations, regulatory capital levels and certain other factors. Initial base assessment rates ranges from 2.5 to 45 basis points. The 
FDIC may make the following further adjustments to an institution’s initial base assessment rates: decreases for long-term unsecured 
debt including most senior unsecured debt and subordinated debt; increases for holding long-term unsecured debt or subordinated debt 
issued  by  other  insured  depository  institutions;  and  increases  for  broker  deposits  in  excess  of  10  percent  of  domestic  deposits  for 
institutions not well rated and well capitalized. 

The Dodd-Frank Act transferred to the FDIC increased discretion with regard to managing the required amount of reserves 
for the DIF, or the “designated reserve ratio.” Among other changes, the Dodd-Frank Act (i) raised the minimum designated reserve 
ratio to 1.35 percent and removed the upper limit on the designated reserve ratio, (ii) requires that the designated reserve ratio reach 
1.35 percent by September 2020, and (iii) requires the FDIC to offset the effect on institutions with total consolidated assets of less 

10 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
  
than $10 billion of raising the designated reserve ratio from 1.15 percent to 1.35 percent. The FDIA requires that the FDIC consider 
the  appropriate  level  for  the  designated  reserve  ratio  on  at  least  an  annual  basis.  On  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. 

Incentive Compensation 

In  June 2010,  the  federal  banking  regulators  issued  comprehensive  final  guidance  on  incentive  compensation  policies 
intended to ensure that the incentive compensation policies of banking organizations do not undermine the safety and soundness of 
such organizations by encouraging excessive risk-taking. The guidance, which covers all employees that have the ability to materially 
affect  the  risk  profile  of  an  organization,  either  individually  or  as  part  of  a  group,  is  based  upon  the  key  principles  that  a banking 
organization’s  incentive  compensation  arrangements  should  (i) provide  incentives  that  do  not  encourage  risk-taking  beyond  the 
organization’s ability to effectively identify and manage risks, (ii) be compatible with effective internal controls and risk management, 
and  (iii) be  supported  by  strong  corporate  governance,  including  active  and  effective  oversight  by  the  organization’s  Board  of 
Directors. 

The  Federal  Reserve  will  review,  as  part  of  the  regular,  risk-focused  examination  process,  the  incentive  compensation 
arrangements of banking organizations, such as the Company, that are not “large, complex banking organizations.” These reviews will 
be  tailored  to  each  organization  based  on  the  scope  and  complexity  of  the  organization’s  activities  and  the  prevalence  of  incentive 
compensation arrangements. The findings of the supervisory initiatives will be included in reports of examination. Deficiencies will be 
incorporated into the organization’s supervisory ratings, which can affect the organization’s ability to make acquisitions and take other 
actions. Enforcement actions may be taken against a banking organization if its incentive compensation arrangements, or related risk-
management control or governance processes, pose a risk to the organization’s safety and soundness and the organization is not taking 
prompt  and  effective  measures  to  correct  the  deficiencies.  At  December  31,  2012,  the  Company  had  not  been  made  aware  of  any 
instances of non-compliance with the new guidance. 

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999  

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 draws lines between the types of activities that are permitted for banking organizations 
that  are  financial  in  nature  and  those  that  are  not  permitted  because  they  are  commercial  in  nature.  The  Act  imposes  Community 
Reinvestment Act requirements on financial service organizations that seek to qualify for the expanded powers to engage in broader 
financial activities and affiliations with financial companies that the Act permits.  

The Act created a new form of financial organization called a financial holding company that may own and control banks, 
insurance  companies  and  securities  firms.  A  financial  holding  company  is  authorized  to  engage  in  any  activity  that  is  financial  in 
nature  or  incidental  to  an  activity  that  is  financial  in  nature  or  is  a  complementary  activity.  These  activities  include  insurance, 
securities transactions and traditional banking related activities. The Act establishes a consultative and cooperative procedure between 
the Federal Reserve and the Secretary of the Treasury for the designation of new activities that are financial in nature within the scope 
of the activities permitted by the Act for a financial holding company. A financial holding company must satisfy special criteria to 
qualify  for  the  expanded  financial  powers  authorized  by  the  Act.  Among  those  criteria  are  requirements  that  all  of  the  depository 
institutions  owned  by  the  financial  holding  company  be  rated  as  well-capitalized  and  well-managed  and  that  all  of  its  insured 
depository institutions have received a satisfactory ratio for Community Reinvestment Act compliance during their last examination. 
A  bank  holding  company  that  does  not  qualify  as  a  financial  holding  company  under  the  Act  is  generally  limited  in  the  types  of 
activities in which it may engage to those that the Federal Reserve has recognized as permissible for bank holding companies prior to 
the date of enactment of the Act. The Act also authorizes a state bank to have a financial subsidiary that engages as a principal in the 
same activities that are permitted for a financial subsidiary of a national bank if the state bank meets eligibility criteria and special 
conditions for maintaining the financial subsidiary.  

The Act repealed the prohibition in the Glass-Steagall Act on bank affiliations with companies that are engaged primarily in 
securities underwriting activities. The Act authorizes a financial holding company to engage in a wide range of securities activities, 
including underwriting, broker/dealer activities and investment company and investment advisory activities. The Company currently is 
not a financial holding company under the Act.  

Under  the  Act,  federal  banking  regulators  were  required  to  adopt  rules  limiting  the  ability  of  banks  and  other  financial 
institutions to disclose non-public information about consumers to nonaffiliated third parties. These limitations require disclosure of 
privacy policies to consumers and, in some circumstances, allow consumers to prevent disclosure of certain personal information to a 
nonaffiliated third party. Pursuant to these rules, financial institutions must provide: initial notices to customers about their privacy 
policies, including a description of the conditions under which they may disclose nonpublic personal information to nonaffiliated third 
parties and affiliates; annual notices of their privacy policies to current customers; and a reasonable method for customers to “opt out” 
of  disclosures  to  nonaffiliated  third  parties.  These  privacy  provisions  will  affect  how  consumer  information  is  transmitted  through 
diversified financial companies and conveyed to outside vendors.

Community Reinvestment Act  

Under  the  Community  Reinvestment  Act  (“CRA”)  and  related  regulations,  depository  institutions  have  an  affirmative 
obligation to assist in meeting the credit needs of their market areas, including low and moderate-income areas, consistent with safe 
and  sound  banking  practice.  CRA  requires  the  adoption  of  a  statement  for  each  of  its  market  areas  describing  the  depository 
institution’s efforts to assist in its community’s credit needs.  Depository institutions are periodically examined for compliance with 
CRA  and  are  periodically  assigned  ratings  in  this  regard.  Banking  regulators  consider  a  depository  institution’s  CRA  rating  when 
reviewing  applications  to  establish  new  branches,  undertake  new  lines  of  business,  and/or  acquire  part  or  all  of  another  depository 
institution. An unsatisfactory rating can significantly delay or even prohibit regulatory approval of a proposed transaction by a bank 
holding company or its depository institution subsidiaries.  

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and federal bank regulators have made various changes to CRA. Among other changes, CRA 
agreements with private parties must be disclosed and annual reports must be made to a bank’s primary federal regulator. A financial 
holding company or any of its subsidiaries will not be permitted to engage in new activities authorized under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley 
Act if any bank subsidiary received less than a “satisfactory” rating in its latest CRA examination. The Company believes that it is 
currently in compliance with CRA.  

Fair Lending; Consumer Laws  

In  addition  to  CRA,  other  federal  and  state  laws  regulate  various  lending  and  consumer  aspects  of  the  banking  business. 
Governmental  agencies,  including  the  Department  of  Housing  and  Urban  Development,  the  Federal  Trade  Commission  and  the 
Department of Justice, have become concerned that prospective borrowers experience discrimination in their efforts to obtain loans 
from  depository  and  other  lending  institutions.  These  agencies  have  brought  litigation  against  depository  institutions  alleging 
discrimination against borrowers. Many of these suits have been settled, in some cases for material sums, short of a full trial.  

These  governmental  agencies  have  clarified  what  they  consider  to  be  lending  discrimination  and  have  specified  various 
factors that they will use to determine the existence of lending discrimination under the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and the Fair 
Housing Act, including evidence that a lender discriminated on a prohibited basis, evidence that a lender treated applicants differently 
based  on  prohibited  factors  in  the  absence  of  evidence  that  the  treatment  was  the  result  of  prejudice  or  a  conscious  intention  to 
discriminate,  and  evidence  that  a  lender  applied  an  otherwise  neutral  non-discriminatory  policy  uniformly  to  all  applicants,  but  the 
practice had a discriminatory effect, unless the practice could be justified as a business necessity.  

Banks  and  other  depository  institutions  also  are  subject  to  numerous  consumer-oriented  laws  and  regulations.  These  laws, 
which include the Truth in Lending Act, the Truth in Savings Act, the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, the Electronic Funds 
Transfer Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, and the Fair Housing Act, require compliance by depository institutions with various 
disclosure requirements and requirements regulating the availability of funds after deposit or the making of some loans to customers.  

Governmental Policies  

The  Federal  Reserve  regulates  money,  credit  and  interest  rates  in  order  to  influence  general  economic  conditions.  These 
policies  influence  overall  growth  and  distribution  of  bank  loans,  investments  and  deposits.  These  policies  also  affect  interest  rates 
charged  on  loans  or  paid  for  time  and  savings  deposits.  Federal  Reserve  monetary  policies  have  had  a  significant  effect  on  the 
operating results of commercial banks in the past and are expected to continue to do so in the future.  

Future Regulatory Uncertainty  

Because  federal  and  state  regulation  of  financial  institutions  changes  regularly  and  is  the  subject  of  constant  legislative 
debate, the Company cannot forecast how federal and state regulation of financial institutions may change in the future and impact its 
operations. The Company fully expects that the financial institution industry will remain heavily regulated in the near future and that 
additional laws or regulations may be adopted further regulating specific banking practices.

ITEM 1A.   RISK FACTORS 

Our  operations  are  subject  to  many  risks  that  could  adversely  affect  our  future  financial  condition  and  performance  and, 

therefore, the market value of our common stock. The risk factors applicable to us are the following: 

Our future success is dependent on our ability to compete effectively in the highly competitive banking and financial services 
industry. 

We  face  vigorous  competition  from  other  commercial  banks,  savings  banks,  credit  unions,  mortgage  banking  firms, 
consumer  finance  companies,  securities  brokerage  firms,  insurance  companies,  money  market  funds  and  other  types  of  financial 
institutions for deposits, loans and other financial services in our market area. A number of these banks and other financial institutions 
are significantly larger than we are and have substantially greater access to capital and other resources, as well as larger lending limits 
and  branch  systems,  and  offer  a  wider  array  of  banking  services.  Many  of  our  nonbank  competitors  are  not  subject  to  the  same 
extensive regulations that govern us. As a result, these nonbank competitors have advantages over us in providing certain services. 
This  competition  may  reduce  or  limit  our  margins  and  our  market  share  and  may  adversely  affect  our  results  of  operations  and 
financial condition. 

Difficult market conditions continue to adversely affect our industry. 

Dramatic declines in the housing market in recent years, with falling home prices and increasing foreclosures, unemployment 
and under-employment, have negatively impacted the credit performance of real-estate related loans and resulted in significant write-
downs of asset values by financial institutions. These write-downs spread to other securities and loans and have caused many financial 
institutions  to  seek  additional  capital,  to  reduce  or  eliminate  dividends,  to  merge  with  larger  and  stronger  institutions  and,  in  some 
cases, to fail. In this environment, many lenders and institutional investors have reduced or ceased providing funding to borrowers, 
including to other financial institutions. This market turmoil and tightening of credit have led to an increased level of commercial and 
consumer  delinquencies,  lack  of  consumer  confidence,  increased  market  volatility  and  widespread  reduction  of  business  activity 
generally. The economic pressure on consumers and lack of confidence in the financial markets has adversely affected our business 
and results of operations. Market developments may affect consumer confidence levels and may cause adverse changes in payment 
patterns,  causing  increases  in  delinquencies  and  default  rates,  which  may  impact  our  charge-offs  and  provision  for  credit  losses.  A 
worsening of these conditions would likely exacerbate the adverse effects of these difficult market conditions on us and others in the 
financial institutions industry. 

We may be adversely affected by economic conditions in our market area. 

The  general  economic  conditions  in  the  markets  in  which  we  operate  are  a  key  component  to  our  success.  We  are 
headquartered in central Virginia, and our market area includes regions in Virginia, Georgia and Maryland. Because our lending and 
deposit-gathering  activities  are  concentrated  in  this  market,  we  will  be  affected  by  the  general  economic  conditions  in  these  areas. 
Changes in the economy may influence the growth rate of our loans and deposits, the quality of the loan portfolio and loan and deposit 
pricing.  A  significant decline  in general  economic  conditions  caused by  inflation, recession, unemployment  or other  factors, would 
impact these local economic conditions and the demand for banking products and services generally, and could negatively affect our 
financial condition and performance. 

If our allowance for loan losses becomes inadequate, our results of operations may be adversely affected. 

An  essential  element  of  our  business  is  to  make  loans.  We  maintain  an  allowance  for  loan  losses  that  we  believe  is  a 
reasonable estimate of known and inherent losses in our loan portfolio. Through a periodic review and analysis of the loan portfolio, 
management determines the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses by considering such factors as general and industry-specific 
market  conditions,  credit  quality  of  the  loan  portfolio,  the  collateral  supporting  the  loans  and  financial  performance  of  our  loan 
customers relative to their financial obligations to us. The amount of future losses is impacted by changes in economic, operating and 
other  conditions,  including  changes  in  interest  rates,  which  may  be  beyond  our  control.  Actual  losses  may  exceed  our  current 
estimates.  Rapidly  growing  loan  portfolios  are,  by  their  nature,  unseasoned.  Estimating  loan  loss  allowances  for  an  unseasoned 
portfolio is more difficult than with seasoned portfolios, and may be more susceptible to changes in estimates and to losses exceeding 
estimates.  Although  we  believe  the  allowance  for  loan  losses  is  a  reasonable  estimate  of  known  and  inherent  losses  in  our  loan 
portfolio, we cannot fully predict such losses or assert that our loan loss allowance will be adequate in the future. Future loan losses 
that are greater than current estimates could have a material impact on our future financial performance. 

Banking regulators periodically review our allowance for loan losses and may require us to increase our allowance for loan 
losses or recognize additional loan charge-offs, based on credit judgments different than those of our management. Any increase in the 
amount of our allowance or loans charged-off as required by these regulatory agencies could have a negative effect on our operating 
results. 

13 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Our  concentration  in  loans  secured  by  real  estate  may  increase  our  future  credit  losses,  which  would  negatively  affect  our 
financial results. 

We offer a variety of secured loans, including commercial lines of credit, commercial term loans, real estate, construction, 
home equity, consumer and other loans.  Credit risk and credit losses can increase if our loans are concentrated to borrowers who, as a 
group,  may  be  uniquely  or  disproportionately  affected  by  economic  or  market  conditions.    Approximately  87%  of  our  loans  are 
secured by real estate, both residential and commercial, substantially all of which are located in our market area. A major change in 
the region’s real estate market, resulting in a deterioration in real estate values, or in the local or national economy, including changes 
caused by raising interest rates, could adversely affect our customers’ ability to pay these loans, which in turn could adversely impact 
us. Risk of loan defaults and foreclosures are inherent in the banking industry, and we try to limit our exposure to this risk by carefully 
underwriting and monitoring our extensions of credit. We cannot fully eliminate credit risk, and as a result credit losses may occur in 
the future. 

Nonperforming assets take significant time to resolve and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. 

Our nonperforming assets adversely affect our net income in various ways. Until economic and market conditions improve, 
we expect to continue to incur additional losses relating to an increase in nonperforming loans. We do not record interest income on 
non-accrual  loans,  thereby  adversely  affecting  our  income  and  increasing  loan  administration  costs.  When  we  receive  collateral 
through foreclosures and similar proceedings, we are required to mark the related loan to the then fair market value of the collateral 
less estimated selling costs, which may result in a loss. An increase in the level of nonperforming assets also increases our risk profile 
and may impact the capital levels our regulators believe is appropriate in light of such risks. We utilize various techniques such as loan 
sales,  workouts  and  restructurings  to  manage  our  problem  assets.  Decreases  in  the  value  of  these  problem  assets,  the  underlying 
collateral,  or  in  the  borrowers’  performance  or  financial  condition,  could  adversely  affect  our  business,  results  of  operations  and 
financial condition. 

In  addition,  the  resolution  of  nonperforming  assets  requires  significant  commitments  of  time  from  management  and  staff, 
which can be detrimental to performance of their other responsibilities. Such resolution may also require the assistance of third parties, 
and thus the expense associated with it. There can be no assurance that we will avoid further increases in nonperforming loans in the 
future. 

We rely upon independent appraisals to determine the value of the real estate which secures a significant portion of our loans, 
and the values indicated by such appraisals may not be realizable if we are forced to foreclose upon such loans. 

A  significant portion  of our loan  portfolio  consists  of  loans  secured  by  real  estate  (87%  at  December  31,  2012).   We  rely 
upon  independent  appraisers  to  estimate  the  value  of  such  real  estate.    Appraisals  are  only  estimates  of  value  and  the  independent 
appraisers  may  make  mistakes  of  fact  or  judgment  which  adversely  affect  the  reliability  of  their  appraisals.  In  addition,  events 
occurring after the initial appraisal may cause the value of the real estate to increase or decrease.  As a result of any of these factors, 
the real estate securing some of our loans may be more or less valuable than anticipated at the time the loans were made.  If a default 
occurs on a loan secured by real estate that is less valuable than originally estimated, we may not be able to recover the outstanding 
balance of the loan and will suffer a loss. 

We may incur losses if we are unable to successfully manage interest rate risk. 

Our future profitability will substantially depend upon our ability to maintain or increase the spread between the interest rates 
earned on investments and loans and interest rates paid on deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities. Changes in interest rates will 
affect our operating performance and financial condition. The shape of the yield curve can also impact net interest income. Changing 
rates will impact how fast our mortgage loans and mortgage backed securities will have the principal repaid. Rate changes can also 
impact the behavior of our depositors, especially depositors in non-maturity deposits such as demand, interest checking, savings and 
money  market  accounts.  While  we  attempt  to  minimize  our  exposure  to  interest  rate  risk,  we  are  unable  to  eliminate  it  as  it  is  an 
inherent  part  of  our  business.  Our  net  interest  spread  will  depend  on  many  factors  that  are  partly  or  entirely  outside  our  control, 
including  competition,  federal  economic,  monetary  and  fiscal  policies,  and  industry-specific  conditions  and  economic  conditions 
generally. 

The success of our strategy depends on our ability to identify and retain individuals with experience and relationships in our 
markets. 

In  order  to  be  successful,  we  must  identify  and  retain  experienced  key  management  members  with  local  expertise  and 
relationships. We expect that competition for qualified personnel will be intense and that there will be a limited number of qualified 
persons with knowledge of and experience in the community banking industry in our chosen geographic market.  Even if we identify 

14 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
individuals that we believe could assist us in building our franchise, we may be unable to recruit these individuals away from their 
current banks.  In addition, the process of identifying and recruiting individuals with the combination of skills and attributes required 
to carry out our strategy is often lengthy.  Our inability to identify, recruit and retain talented personnel could limit our growth and 
could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. 

We have not paid dividends on shares of our common stock or preferred stock on a regular basis and have previously deferred 
certain interest payments with respect to our trust preferred securities, and we may not be able to pay future dividends.  

In 2010, we suspended the payment of dividends with respect to shares of our common stock, and we began to defer dividend 
payments  with  respect  to  the  preferred  stock  that  we  issued  to  the  United  States  Department  of  Treasury  in  connection  with  our 
participation in the TARP Capital Purchase Program and interest payments with respect to our trust preferred securities.  While we 
have not recommenced the payment of dividends on our common stock, we are now current with respect to required payments on the 
quarterly cash dividend with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock and all interest payments under our trust preferred securities.   

Our  ability  to  pay  dividends  is  limited  by  general  regulatory  restrictions  and  the  need  to  maintain  sufficient  capital  in  our 
organization.  The  ability  of  our  bank  subsidiary  to  pay  dividends  to  us  is  limited  by  the  Bank’s  obligations  to  maintain  sufficient 
capital, earnings and liquidity and by other general restrictions on dividends under federal and state bank regulatory requirements.  

Dividend  payments  on  our  preferred  stock  and  interest  payments  on  our  trust  preferred  securities  are  cumulative  and, 
therefore,  unpaid  payments  will  accumulate  and  compound  on  each  subsequent  dividend  payment  date.  If  the  dividends  on  the 
preferred  stock  have  not  been  paid  for  an  aggregate  of  six  quarterly  dividend  periods  or  more,  whether  or  not  consecutive,  our 
authorized number of directors will be automatically increased by two and the holders of the preferred stock will have the right to elect 
those directors at our next annual meeting or at a special meeting called for that purpose. These two directors will be elected annually 
and will serve until all unpaid dividends for all past dividend periods have been declared and paid in full. Furthermore, we cannot pay 
dividends on our outstanding shares of preferred stock or our common stock until we have paid in full all deferred interest payments 
on our trust preferred securities. 

Accordingly,  there  is  no  assurance  that  we  will  be  able  to  pay  cash  dividends  in  the  future.  The  future  payment  of  cash 
dividends  on  our  common  stock,  if  any,  will  be  subject  to  the  prior  payment  of  all  unpaid  dividends  and  deferred  interest  on  our 
preferred stock and trust preferred securities.  

We are subject to extensive government regulation and supervision. 

We  are  subject  to  extensive  federal  and  state  regulation  and  supervision.  Banking  regulations  are  primarily  intended  to 
protect  depositors’  funds,  federal  deposit  insurance  funds  and  the  banking  system  as  a  whole,  and  not  security  holders.  These 
regulations  affect  our  lending  practices,  capital  structure,  investment  practices,  dividend  policy  and  growth,  among  other  things. 
Congress and federal regulatory agencies continually review banking laws, regulations and policies for possible changes. 

The  Dodd-Frank  Act,  enacted  in  July  2010,  instituted  major  changes  to  the  banking  and  financial  institutions  regulatory 
regimes in light of the recent performance of and government intervention in the financial services sector. The Act includes, among 
other  things,  changes  to  the  deposit  insurance  and  financial  regulatory  systems,  enhanced  bank  capital  requirements  and  new 
requirements designed to protect consumers in financial transactions. Many of these provisions are subject to rule making procedures 
and  studies  that  will  be  conducted  in  the  future,  and  thus  the  full  effects  of  the  legislation  on  us  cannot  yet  be  determined.  Other 
changes to statutes, regulations or regulatory policies, including changes in interpretation or implementation of statutes, regulations or 
policies, could affect us in substantial and unpredictable ways. 

These provisions, or any other aspects of current proposed regulatory or legislative changes to laws applicable to the financial 
industry,  if  enacted  or  adopted,  may  impact  the  profitability  of  our  business  activities  or  change  certain  of  our  business  practices, 
including our ability to offer new products, obtain financing, attract deposits, make loans, and achieve satisfactory interest spreads, 
and could expose us to additional costs, including increased compliance costs. These changes also may require us to invest significant 
management attention and resources to make any necessary changes to our operations in order to comply, and could therefore also 
materially  adversely  affect  our  business,  financial  condition,  and  results  of  operations.    Furthermore,  failure  to  comply  with  laws, 
regulations or policies could result in sanctions by regulatory agencies, civil money penalties and/or reputation damage, which could 
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. 

We may need to raise capital that may not ultimately be available to us.  

Regulatory  authorities  require  us  to  maintain  certain  levels  of  capital  to  support  our  operations.  While  we  remained  “well 
capitalized” at December 31, 2012, additional losses that we may incur in the future may require us to raise capital. The ability to raise 

15 

 
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
capital,  if  needed,  will  depend  in  part  on  conditions  in  the  capital  markets  at  that  time,  which  are  outside  our  control,  and  on  our 
financial performance.  

Accordingly, we may not be able to raise capital, if and when needed, on terms acceptable to us, or at all. If we cannot raise 
capital when needed, our ability to increase our capital ratios could be materially impaired, and we could face regulatory challenges. 
In addition, if we issue equity capital, it may be at a lower price and in all cases our existing stockholders’ interests would be diluted.  

The realization of the benefits of the FDIC shared loss agreements depends on our compliance with the agreements.  

Under  the  shared  loss  agreements  into  which  we  entered  in  January  2009,  the  FDIC  will  reimburse  us  for  80%  of  losses 
arising from covered loans and foreclosed real estate assets on the first $118 million in losses of such covered loans and foreclosed 
real  estate  assets  and  for  95%  of  losses  on  covered  loans  and  foreclosed  real  estate  assets  thereafter.  The  shared  loss  agreements 
include a number of obligations for us, including, for example, the submission of detailed certificates, on a monthly basis for losses on 
single family one-to-four residential mortgage loans and on a quarterly basis for losses on other covered assets, for the FDIC’s review.  

Because the shared loss agreements subject us to a number of contractual requirements, we must implement effective internal 
processes over covered assets (including consistency in the treatment of covered and non-covered assets) to maintain the guaranty that 
the FDIC has agreed to provide, which underpins the FDIC indemnification asset, which totaled $33.8  million at December 31, 2012. 
Any failure to comply with the contractual requirements of the shared loss agreements may lead to the revocation of the agreements, 
which would necessitate the write-off of the related indemnification asset and the receivable that we carry on our balance sheet for 
amounts that we have billed the FDIC.  

Failure to maintain effective systems of internal and disclosure control could have a material adverse effect on our results of 
operation and financial condition.  

Effective  internal  and  disclosure  controls  are  necessary  for  us  to  provide  reliable  financial  reports  and  effectively  prevent 
fraud and to operate successfully as a public company.  If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, its reputation 
and operating results would be harmed.  As part of our ongoing monitoring of internal control, we may discover material weaknesses 
or significant deficiencies in our internal control that require remediation.  A “material weakness” is a deficiency, or a combination of 
deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a 
company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.  

We have in the past discovered, and may in the future discover, areas of its internal controls that need improvement.  Even 
so,  we  are  continuing  to  work  to  improve  our  internal  controls.    We  cannot  be  certain  that  these  measures  will  ensure  that  we 
implement and maintain adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future.  Any failure to maintain effective 
controls  or  to  timely  effect  any  necessary  improvement  of  our  internal  and  disclosure  controls  could,  among  other  things,  result  in 
losses from fraud or error, harm our reputation or cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, all of which 
could have a material adverse effect on our results of operation and financial condition.  

We can give no assurances that our deferred tax asset will not become impaired in the future because it is based on projections 
of future earnings, which are subject to uncertainty and estimates that may change based on economic conditions.  

We  can give  no  assurances  that  our deferred  tax  asset will  not become  impaired  in  the  future. At  December 31, 2012, we 
recorded net deferred income tax assets of $4.7 million. We assess the realization of deferred income tax assets and record a valuation 
allowance if it is “more likely than not” that we will not realize all or a portion of the deferred tax asset. We consider all available 
evidence,  both  positive  and  negative,  to  determine  whether,  based  on  the  weight  of  that  evidence,  we  need  a  valuation  allowance. 
Management’s  assessment  is  primarily  dependent  on  historical  taxable  income  and  projections  of  future  taxable  income,  which  are 
directly related to our core earnings capacity and our prospects to generate core earnings in the future. Projections of core earnings and 
taxable income are inherently subject to uncertainty and estimates that may change given an uncertain economic outlook and current 
banking  industry  conditions.  Due  to  the  uncertainty  of  estimates  and  projections,  it  is  possible  that  we  will  be  required  to  record 
adjustments to the valuation allowance in future reporting periods.  

A substantial decline in the value of our securities portfolio may result in an “other-than-temporary” impairment charge.  

The total amount of our available-for-sale securities portfolio was $309.1 million at December 31, 2012. The measurement of 
the fair value of these securities involves significant judgment due to the complexity of the factors contributing to the measurement. 
Market volatility makes measurement of the fair value of our securities portfolio even more difficult and subjective. More generally, 
as market conditions continue to be volatile, we cannot provide assurance with respect to the amount of future unrealized losses in the 
portfolio. To the extent that any portion of the unrealized losses in these portfolios is determined to be other than temporary, and the 

16 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
loss is related to credit factors, we would recognize a charge to our earnings in the quarter during which such determination is made, 
and our capital ratios could be adversely affected.  

The  failure  of  our  Board  and  management  to  implement  and  maintain  effective  risk  management  programs  may  adversely 
affect our operations. 

As a banking organization, we are exposed to a variety of risks across our operations. We define risk generally as the danger 
of not achieving our financial, operating, or strategic goals as planned. As a result, to ensure our long-term corporate success, we must 
effectively identify and analyze risks and then manage or mitigate them through appropriate control measures. We have developed a 
plan  to  establish  and  maintain  effective  risk  management  programs  to  address  oversight,  control,  and  supervision  of  management, 
major operations and activities across our functional areas. We believe that this plan enables us to recognize and analyze risks early on 
and to take the appropriate action. 

It is important to note that our organization has grown substantially over the past five years. In May 2008, we merged with 
each of BOE, the then holding company for the Bank, and TFC, the holding company for TransCommunity Bank, N.A., and, in July 
2008,  TransCommunity  Bank  merged  into  the  Bank.  In  November  2008,  the  Bank  acquired  certain  assets  and  assumed  all  deposit 
liabilities of TCB and, in January 2009, the Bank acquired certain assets and assumed all deposit liabilities of SFSB. This significant 
growth put considerable strain on our organizational structure and the effectiveness of risk management programs that are appropriate 
for  the  various  functions  of  an  organization  of  our  size  and  complexity.  Furthermore,  this  growth  strained  our  control  structure, 
including  the  structure  that  supports  the  effective  application  of  policies  and  the  execution  of  procedures  within  the  operation  of 
financial reporting controls. 

We have put in place internal remediation plans that address concerns that have arisen in maintaining the effectiveness of our 
risk management programs. While our Board and management are working diligently to ensure that our organization implements and 
maintains effective risk management programs, any failure to do so may adversely affect our operations. As a result, we may not be 
able to achieve our financial, operational and strategic goals. 

We rely on other companies to provide key components of our business infrastructure.  

Third  parties  provide  key  components  of  our  business  operations  such  as  data  processing,  recording  and  monitoring 
transactions, online banking interfaces and services, internet connections and network access. While we have selected these third party 
vendors carefully, we do not control their actions. Any problem caused by these third parties, including poor performance of services, 
failure  to  provide  services,  disruptions  in  services  provided  by  a  vendor  and  failure  to  handle  current  or  higher  volumes,  could 
adversely affect our ability to deliver products and services to our customers and otherwise conduct our business, and may harm our 
reputation.  Financial  or  operational  difficulties  of  a  third  party  vendor  could  also  hurt  our  operations  if  those  difficulties  affect  the 
vendor’s ability to serve us. Replacing these third party vendors could also create significant delay and expense. Accordingly, use of 
such third parties creates an unavoidable inherent risk to our business operations.  

Certain of our covered assets will no longer be covered by a FDIC shared loss agreement in 2014. 

Under the shared loss agreements that we have with the FDIC, the FDIC will reimburse the Bank for 80% of losses arising 
from  covered  loans  and  foreclosed  real  estate  assets,  on  the  first  $118  million  in  losses  on  such  covered  loans  and  foreclosed  real 
estate assets, and for 95% of losses on covered loans and foreclosed real estate assets thereafter. While the reimbursements for losses 
on single family one-to-four residential mortgage assets are to be made quarterly through January 2019, the reimbursements for losses 
on other covered assets are to be made quarterly only through January 2014.  This reimbursement arrangement expires at that time 
and, accordingly, any losses with respect to these non-single family assets after January 2014 will be entirely borne by us.  While we 
believe  that  we  are  managing  and  monitoring  these  assets,  which  have  a  carrying  value  of  $6.5  million  at  December  31,  2012, 
appropriately, any unforeseen issues with respect to any of them will have a direct effect on our results after January 2014. 

We  may  be  subject  to  more  stringent  capital  and  liquidity  requirements,  the  short-term  and  long-term  impact  of  which  is 
uncertain. 

The  Company  and  the  Bank  are  each  subject  to  capital  adequacy  guidelines  and  other  regulatory  requirements  specifying 
minimum  amounts  and  types  of  capital  which  each  must  maintain.  From  time  to  time,  regulators  implement  changes  to  these 
regulatory capital adequacy guidelines. If we fail to meet these minimum capital guidelines and/or other regulatory requirements, our 
financial condition would be materially and adversely affected. 

The Dodd-Frank Act requires the federal banking agencies to establish stricter risk-based capital requirements and leverage 
limits for banks and bank holding companies. On June 7, 2012, the Federal Reserve and the other federal bank regulatory agencies 
issued a series of proposed rules that would revise their risk-based and leverage capital requirements and their method for calculating 

17 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
risk-weighted assets.  The proposed rules implement the Basel III regulatory capital reforms from the Basel Committee on Banking 
Supervision and certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. If implemented, the proposed rules would, among other things, establish a 
new  common  equity  Tier  1  minimum  capital  requirement  (4.5%  of  risk-weighted  assets)  and  a  higher  minimum  Tier  1  risk-based 
capital requirement (6% of risk-weighted assets), and assign higher risk weightings to loans that are more than 90 days past due, loans 
that are on nonaccrual status and certain loans financing the acquisition, development or construction of commercial real estate. The 
rules would also lead to more restrictive leverage and liquidity ratios. 

The ultimate impact of the new capital and liquidity standards on the Company and the Bank cannot be determined at this 
time and depend on a number of factors, including the treatment and final implementation by the Federal Reserve.  The federal bank 
regulatory agencies initially indicated that these proposed rules would be phased in beginning January 1, 2013 with full compliance 
required  by  January  1,  2019.  However,  due  to  the  volume  of  public  comments  received,  the  agencies  elected  not  to  begin 
implementing the rules on January 1, 2013 and have provided no further guidance on a new effective date. These requirements and 
any other new regulations, could adversely affect our ability to pay dividends, or could require us to reduce business levels or to raise 
capital, including in ways that may adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations. 

Current levels of market volatility are unprecedented. 

The capital and credit markets have been experiencing volatility and disruption in recent years. Recently, the volatility and 
disruption has reached unprecedented levels. In some cases, the markets have produced downward pressure on stock prices and credit 
availability for certain issuers without regard to those issuers’ underlying financial strength. If current levels of market disruption and 
volatility continue or worsen, there can be no assurance that we will not experience an adverse effect, which may be material, on our 
ability to access capital and on our business, financial condition and results of operations. 

The soundness of other financial institutions could adversely affect us. 

Our ability to engage in routine funding transactions could be adversely affected by the actions and commercial soundness of 
other  financial  institutions.  Financial  services  institutions  are  interrelated  as  a  result  of  trading,  clearing,  counterparty  or  other 
relationships.  We  have  exposure  to  many  different  industries  and  counterparties,  and  we  routinely  execute  transactions  with 
counterparties  in  the  financial  industry.  As  a  result,  defaults  by,  or  even  rumors  or  questions  about,  one  or  more  financial  services 
institutions,  or  the  financial  services  industry  generally,  have  led  to  market-wide  liquidity  problems  and  could  lead  to  losses  or 
defaults by us or by other institutions. Many of these transactions expose us to credit risk in the event of default of our counterparty or 
client. In addition, our credit risk may be exacerbated when the collateral held by us cannot be realized upon or is liquidated at prices 
not sufficient to recover the full amount of the financial instrument exposure due us. There is no assurance that any such losses would 
not materially and adversely affect our results of operations. 

We may be adversely impacted by changes in the condition of financial markets. 

We are directly and indirectly affected by changes in market conditions. Market risk generally represents the risk that values 
of assets and liabilities or revenues will be adversely affected by changes in market conditions. Market risk is inherent in the financial 
instruments associated with our operations and activities including loans, deposits, securities, short-term borrowings, long-term debt, 
trading account assets and liabilities, and derivatives. Just a few of the market conditions that may shift from time to time, thereby 
exposing  us  to  market  risk,  include  fluctuations  in  interest  and  currency  exchange  rates,  equity  and  futures  prices,  and  price 
deterioration or changes in value due to changes in market perception or actual credit quality of issuers. Accordingly, depending on 
the  instruments  or  activities  impacted,  market  risks  can  have  adverse  effects  on  our  results  of  operations  and  our  overall  financial 
condition. 

Banking regulators have broad enforcement power, but regulations are meant to protect depositors, and not investors. 

We are subject to supervision by several governmental regulatory agencies, including the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond 
and  Virginia’s  Bureau  of  Financial  Institutions.  Bank  regulations,  and  the  interpretation  and  application  of  them  by  regulators,  are 
beyond our control, may change rapidly and unpredictably and can be expected to influence earnings and growth. In addition, these 
regulations may limit our growth and the return to investors by restricting activities such as the payment of dividends, mergers with, or 
acquisitions by, other institutions, investments, loans and interest rates, interest rates paid on deposits and the opening of new branch 
offices. Although these regulations impose costs on us, they are intended to protect depositors, and should not be assumed to protect 
the interest of shareholders. The regulations to which we are subject may not always be in the best interest of investors. 

Our operations may be adversely affected by cyber security risks. 

In  the  ordinary  course  of  business,  we  collect  and  store  sensitive  data,  including  proprietary  business  information  and 
personally identifiable information of our customers and employees in systems and on networks. The secure processing, maintenance 

18 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
and  use  of  this  information  is  critical  to  operations  and  our  business  strategy.  We  have  invested  in  accepted  technologies,  and  we 
continually  review  processes  and  practices  that  are  designed  to  protect  our  networks,  computers  and  data  from  damage  or 
unauthorized  access.  Despite  these  security  measures,  our  computer  systems  and  infrastructure  may  be  vulnerable  to  attacks  by 
hackers  or  breached  due  to  employee  error,  malfeasance,  technology  failure  or  other  disruptions.  A  breach  of  any  kind  could 
compromise systems, and the information stored there could be accessed, damaged or disclosed. A breach in security could result in 
legal claims, regulatory penalties, disruption in operations, and damage to our reputation, which could adversely affect our business.  

Increases in FDIC insurance premiums may cause our earnings to decrease.  

Since the financial crisis began several years ago, an increasing number of bank failures have imposed significant costs on 
the  FDIC  in  resolving  those  failures,  and  the  regulator’s  deposit  insurance  fund  has  been  depleted.  In  order  to  maintain  a  strong 
funding  position  and  restore  reserve  ratios  of  the  deposit  insurance  fund,  the  FDIC  has  increased,  and  may  increase  in  the  future, 
assessment rates of insured institutions, including the Bank. 

Deposits are insured by the FDIC, subject to limits and conditions or applicable law and the FDIC’s regulations. Pursuant to 
the Dodd-Frank Act, FDIC insurance coverage limits were permanently increased to $250,000 per customer. The FDIC administers 
the deposit insurance fund, and all insured depository institutions are required to pay assessments to the FDIC that fund the deposit 
insurance  fund.  The  Dodd-Frank  Act  changed  the  methodology  for  calculating  deposit  insurance  assessments  by  changing  the 
assessment base from the amount of an insured depository institution’s domestic deposits to its total assets minus tangible equity. On 
February 7,  2011,  the  FDIC  issued  a  new  regulation  implementing  revisions  to  the  assessment  system  mandated  by  the  Financial 
Reform  Act.  The  new  regulation  was  effective  April 1,  2011  and  was  reflected  in  the  June 30,  2011  FDIC  fund  balance  and  the 
invoices  for  assessments  due  September 30,  2011.  As  a  result  of  the  new  regulations,  we  expect  to  incur  higher  annual  deposit 
insurance  assessments  than  we  historically  incurred  before  the  financial  crisis  began  several  years  ago.  While  the  burden  of 
replenishing the DIF will be placed primarily on institutions with assets of greater than $10 billion, any future increases in required 
deposit insurance premiums or other bank industry fees could have a significant adverse impact on our financial condition and results 
of operations.  

We  are  subject  to  executive  compensation  restrictions  because  of  our  participation  in  the  Treasury’s  Capital  Purchase 
Program. 

As a participant in the Capital Purchase Program, we are subject to the Department of the Treasury’s standards for executive 
compensation and governance for the period during which the Department of the Treasury holds the preferred stock that we issued 
under  this  program.  These  standards  generally  apply  to  the  chief  executive  officer,  chief  financial  officer,  plus  the  next  three  most 
highly compensated executive officers and can also apply to a number of our other employees. 

The standards include requirements to recover certain bonus payments if they were based on materially inaccurate financial 
statements  or  performance  metric  criteria, prohibitions  on  making  certain  golden  parachute  payments, prohibitions  on  paying  or 
accruing certain bonus payments, except as otherwise permitted by the rules, prohibitions on maintaining any plan for senior executive 
officers that encourages such officers to take unnecessary and excessive risks that threaten our value, prohibitions on maintaining any 
employee compensation plan that encourages the manipulation of reported earnings to enhance the compensation of any employee and 
prohibitions on providing certain tax gross-ups. These restrictions and standards could limit our ability to recruit and retain executive 
officers. 

In  addition,  while  we  believe  that  we  have  taken  and  continue  to  take  the  steps  necessary  to  comply  with  the  standards 
described above, we cannot make any assurance that the Department of the Treasury or our other regulators will agree that we have in 
every  instance. As  a  result,  we  cannot  make  any  assurances  as  to  any  penalties  that  the  regulatory agencies  may  assess  if  we  are 
deemed to have violated any of the standards above. Such penalties may include civil and criminal penalties and restitution of certain 
payments that we have made. 

Our businesses and earnings are impacted by governmental, fiscal and monetary policy. 

We are affected by domestic monetary policy. For example, the Federal Reserve Board regulates the supply of money and 
credit in the United States and its policies determine in large part our cost of funds for lending, investing and capital raising activities 
and the return we earn on those loans and investments, both of which affect our net interest margin. The actions of the Federal Reserve 
Board also can materially affect the value of financial instruments we hold, such as loans and debt securities, and its policies also can 
affect  our  borrowers,  potentially  increasing  the  risk  that  they  may  fail  to  repay  their  loans.  Our  businesses  and  earnings  also  are 
affected  by  the  fiscal  or  other  policies  that  are  adopted  by  various  regulatory  authorities  of  the  United  States.  Changes  in  fiscal  or 
monetary policy are beyond our control and hard to predict. 

19 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Our profitability and the value of any equity investment in us may suffer because of rapid and unpredictable changes in the 
highly regulated environment in which we operate. 

We are subject to extensive supervision by several governmental regulatory agencies at the federal and state levels. Recently 
enacted,  proposed  and  future  banking  and  other  legislation  and  regulations  have  had,  and  will  continue  to  have,  or  may  have  a 
significant impact on the financial services industry. These regulations, which are generally intended to protect depositors and not our 
shareholders,  and  the  interpretation  and  application  of  them  by  federal  and  state  regulators,  are  beyond  our  control,  may  change 
rapidly and unpredictably, and can be expected to influence our earnings and growth. Our success depends on our continued ability to 
maintain compliance with these regulations. Many of these regulations increase our costs and thus place other financial institutions 
that may not be subject to similar regulation in stronger, more favorable competitive positions. 

The trading volume in our common stock is less than that of other larger financial services companies. 

The  trading  volume  in  our  common  stock  is  less  than  that  of  other  larger  financial  services  companies.  A  public  trading 
market  having  the  desired  characteristics  of  depth,  liquidity  and  orderliness  depends  on  the  presence  in  the  marketplace  of  willing 
buyers and sellers of our common stock at any given time. This presence depends on the individual decisions of investors and general 
economic and market conditions over which we have no control. Given the lower trading volume of our common stock, significant 
sales of our common stock, or the expectation of these sales, could cause our stock price to fall.

As  of  December 31,  2012,  there  were  2,087  holders  of  record  of  the  Company’s  common  stock,  not  including  beneficial 

holders of securities held in street name.  

Dividends  

The Company’s dividend policy is subject to the discretion of the board of directors and future cash dividend payments to 
stockholders  will  depend  upon  a  number  of  factors,  including  future  earnings,  alternative  investment  opportunities,  financial 
condition, cash requirements, and general business conditions. Under a capital plan that the Company adopted in October 2009, the

Company’s policy is to pay quarterly cash dividends. However, the Company has determined to limit any cash dividend payment to no 
more than 50% of its prior four quarters’ earnings, excluding any goodwill impairment. The Company retains the discretion to modify 
this  determination  if  its  capital  ratios  and  related  models  indicate  that  such  modification  is  prudent  and  consistent  with  the 
maintenance  of  targeted  capital  levels.  In  addition,  if  the  Company’s  capital  levels  fall  or  are  forecasted  to  fall  below  “well 
capitalized” levels, the Company will consider the suspension of the dividend payment.  

The  Company’s  ability  to  distribute  cash  dividends  will  depend  primarily  on  the  ability  of  its  banking  subsidiary  to  pay 
dividends to it. The Bank is subject to legal limitations on the amount of dividends that it is permitted to pay. Furthermore, neither the 
Company  nor  the  Bank  may  declare  or  pay  a  cash  dividend  on  any  of  its  capital  stock  if  it  is  insolvent  or  if  the  payment  of  the 
dividend would render the entity insolvent or unable to pay its obligations as they become due in the ordinary course of business. For 
additional  information  on  these  limitations,  see  “Supervision  and  Regulation  —  Capital  Requirements  and  Dividends”  in  Item 1 
above. 

The  Company  commenced  declaring  dividends  on  its  common  stock  in  2008  following  the  mergers  with  BOE  and  TFC. 
From the second quarter of 2008 through the first quarter of 2010, the Company paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.04 per share to 
the holders of its common stock.  

Following  the  payment  of  its  cash  dividend  in  February  2010,  the  Company  determined  to  suspend  the  payment  of  its 
quarterly  dividend  to  holders  of  common  stock.  While  the  Company  believes  that  its  capital  and  liquidity  levels  remain  above  the 
averages of its peers, the Company remains concerned over asset  quality and the uncertainty of the real estate markets and general 
economy in the central Virginia region. Due to these factors, the Company has determined that it is currently prudent to retain capital 
until such time as the Company experiences  an upturn in economic conditions, lower levels of nonperforming assets and return on 
equity at higher levels than currently being realized.  

In  addition,  on  December 19,  2008,  the  Company  received  $17.680 million  of  capital funding  from  the  Department  of  the 
Treasury,  and  the  capital  is  considered  senior  preferred  stock.  Under  the  terms  of  the  Series  A  Preferred  Stock,  the  Company  is 
required to pay on a quarterly basis a dividend rate of 5% per year for the first five years, after which the dividend rate automatically 
increases  to  9% per  year. The  Company  made  dividend  payments  for  this  capital  on  a  quarterly  basis  from  February  2009  through 
May 2010, at which time the Company began deferring the payment of such dividends.  The Company may defer dividend payments, 
but the dividend is a cumulative dividend that accumulates for payment in the future, and the failure to pay dividends for six dividend 
periods would trigger board appointment rights for the holder of the preferred stock.  The Company paid certain deferred and current 
payments during 2012 and paid all remaining outstanding deferred payments on August 21, 2012. 

As  of  December  31,  2012,  the  Company  was  current  in  its  payment  of  dividends,  each  in  the  amount  of  $221,000,  with 

respect to the Series A Preferred Stock. 

Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer  

The  Company  does not  currently  have  in place  a  repurchase program  with  respect  to any  of  its  securities.  In  addition,  the 

Company did not repurchase any of its securities during the year ended December 31, 2012.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF 

OPERATIONS  

The following discussion and analysis of the financial condition at December 31, 2012 and results of operations for the year 
ended  December  31,  2012  of  Community  Bankers  Trust  Corporation  (the  “Company”)  should  be  read  in  conjunction  with  the 
Company’s consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements included in this report.  

GENERAL 

Community Bankers Trust Corporation (the “Company”) is a bank holding company that was incorporated under Delaware 
law  on  April 6,  2005.  The  Company  is  headquartered  in  Glen  Allen,  Virginia  and  is  the  holding  company  for  Essex  Bank  (the 
“Bank”),  a  Virginia  state  bank  with  24  full-service  offices  in  Virginia,  Maryland  and  Georgia.   The  Bank  also  operates  two  loan 
production offices in Virginia. 

The  Bank  engages  in  general  commercial  banking  business  and  provides  a  wide  range  of  financial  services  primarily  to 
individuals and small businesses, including individual and commercial checking, savings and time deposit accounts, commercial and 
industrial loans, consumer and small business loans, real estate and  mortgage loans, investment services, on-line and mobile banking 
products, and safe deposit box facilities.  Thirteen offices are located in Virginia, primarily from the Chesapeake Bay to just west of 
Richmond,  seven  are  located  in  Maryland  along  the  Baltimore-Washington  corridor  and  four  are  located  in  the  Atlanta,  Georgia 
metropolitan market.    

The  Company  generates  a  significant  amount  of  its  income  from  the  net  interest  income  earned  by  the  Bank.  Net  interest 
income  is  the  difference  between  interest  income  and  interest  expense.  Interest  income  depends  on  the  amount  of  interest-earning 
assets outstanding during the period and the interest rates earned thereon. The Company’s cost of funds is a function of the average 
amount of interest-bearing deposits and borrowed money outstanding during the period and the interest rates paid thereon. The quality 
of the assets further influences the amount of interest income lost on nonaccrual loans and the amount of additions to the allowance for 
loan losses. Additionally, the Bank earns noninterest income from service charges on deposit accounts and other fee or commission-
based  services  and  products.  Other  sources  of  noninterest  income  can  include gains or  losses  on  securities  transactions,  gains from 
loan  sales,  transactions  involving  bank-owned  property,  and  income  from  Bank  Owned  Life  Insurance  (“BOLI”)  policies.  The 
Company’s  income  is  offset  by  noninterest  expense,  which  consists  of  salaries  and  benefits,  occupancy  and  equipment  costs, 
professional fees, the amortization of intangible assets and other operational expenses. The provision for loan losses and income taxes 
materially affect income.  

CAUTION ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS 

The  Company  makes  certain  forward-looking  statements  in  this  report  that  are  subject  to  risks  and  uncertainties.  These 
forward-looking statements include statements regarding our profitability, liquidity, allowance for loan losses, interest rate sensitivity, 
market risk, growth strategy, and financial and other goals. These forward-looking statements are generally identified by phrases such 
as “the Company expects,” “the Company believes” or words of similar import.  

These  forward-looking  statements  are  subject  to  significant  uncertainties  because  they  are  based  upon  or  are  affected  by 

factors, including, without limitation, the effects of and changes in the following:  

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

the  quality  or  composition  of  the  Company’s  loan  or  investment  portfolios,  including  collateral  values  and  the 
repayment abilities of  borrowers and issuers; 

assumptions that underlie the Company’s allowance for loan losses; 

general economic and market conditions, either nationally or in the Company’s market areas; 

the ability of the Company to comply with regulatory actions, and the costs associated with doing so; 

the interest rate environment;  

competitive pressures among banks and financial institutions or from companies outside the banking industry; 

real estate values;  

the demand for deposit, loan, and investment products and other financial services; 

26 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

the demand, development and acceptance of new products and services; 

the Company’s compliance with, and the timing of future reimbursements from the FDIC to the Company under, the 
shared loss agreements; 

assumptions and estimates that underlie the accounting for loan pools under the shared loss agreements; 

consumer profiles and spending and savings habits;  

the securities and credit markets;  

costs associated with the integration of banking and other internal operations;  

•  management’s  evaluation  of goodwill  and other  assets  on  a  periodic basis,  and  any  resulting  impairment  charges, 

under applicable accounting standards; 

• 

• 

• 

• 

the soundness of other financial institutions with which the Company does business; 

inflation;  

technology; and  

legislative and regulatory requirements.  

These factors and additional risks and uncertainties are described in the “Risk Factors” discussion in Part I, Item 1A, of this 

report.  

Although the Company believes that its expectations with respect to the forward-looking statements are based upon reliable 
assumptions  within  the  bounds  of  its  knowledge  of  its  business  and  operations,  there  can  be  no  assurance  that  actual  results, 
performance  or  achievements  of  the  Company  will  not  differ  materially  from  any  future  results,  performance  or  achievements 
expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.  

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United 
States  (“GAAP”). The  financial  information  contained within  the  statements  is,  to  a significant  extent,  financial  information  that  is 
based on measures of the financial effects of transactions and events that have already occurred. A variety of factors could affect the 
ultimate value that is obtained when either earning income, recognizing an expense, recovering an asset or relieving a liability. For 
example,  the  Company  uses  historical  loss  factors  as  one  factor  in  determining  the  inherent  loss  that  may  be  present  in  its  loan 
portfolio.  Actual  losses  could  differ  significantly  from  the  historical  factors  that  the  Company  uses.  In  addition,  GAAP  itself  may 
change from one previously acceptable method to another method. Although the economics of the Company’s transactions would be 
the same, the timing of events that would impact its transactions could change. 

The  following  is  a  summary  of  the  Company’s  critical  accounting  policies  that  are  highly  dependent  on  estimates, 

assumptions and judgments. 

Allowance for Loan Losses on Non-covered Loans  

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 are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of a loan balance is 
confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.  

The  allowance  is  an  amount  that  management  believes  is  appropriate  to  absorb  estimated  losses  relating  to  specifically 
identified  loans,  as  well  as  probable  credit  losses  inherent  in  the  balance  of  the  loan  portfolio,  based  on  an  evaluation  of  the 
collectability  of  existing  loans  and  prior  loss  experience.  This  quarterly  evaluation  also  takes  into  consideration  such  factors  as 
changes  in  the  nature  and  volume  of  the  loan  portfolio,  overall  portfolio  quality,  review  of  specific  problem  loans,  and  current 
economic conditions that may affect the borrower’s ability to pay. This evaluation does not include the effects of expected losses on 
specific loans or groups of loans that are related to future events or expected changes in economic conditions. While management uses 

27 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
  
 
 
the  best  information  available  to  make  its  evaluation, future  adjustments  to  the  allowance  may  be  necessary  if  there  are  significant 
changes in economic conditions. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review 
the  Bank’s  allowance  for  loan  losses  and  may  require  the  Bank  to  make  additions  to  the  allowance  based  on  their  judgment  about 
information available to them at the time of their examinations. 

The allowance consists of specific, and general components. For 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. The general component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for 
qualitative factors.  

A  loan  is  considered  impaired  when,  based  on  current  information  and  events,  management  believes  that  it  is  more  likely 
than not that the 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, 
availability  of  current  financial  information,  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 for commercial and construction loans by either the present value of the 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. 

Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Bank does 

not separately identify individual consumer and residential loans for impairment disclosures.  

Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer  

FASB  ASC  310,  Receivables  requires  acquired  loans  to  be  recorded  at  fair  value  and  prohibits  carrying  over  valuation 
allowances in the initial accounting for acquired impaired loans. Loans carried at fair value, mortgage loans held for sale, and loans to 
borrowers in good standing under revolving credit arrangements are excluded from the scope of FASB ASC 310 which limits the yield 
that  may  be  accreted  to  the  excess  of  the  undiscounted  expected  cash  flows  over  the  investor’s  initial  investment  in  the  loan.  The 
excess of the contractual cash flows over expected cash flows may not be recognized as an adjustment of yield. Subsequent increases 
in cash flows to be collected are recognized prospectively through an adjustment of the loan’s yield over its remaining life. Decreases 
in expected cash flows are recognized as impairments through allowance for loan losses.  

The Company’s acquired loans from the SFSB acquisition (the “covered loans”), subject to FASB ASC Topic 805, Business 
Combinations  (formerly  SFAS  141(R)),  are  recorded  at  fair  value  and  no  separate  valuation  allowance  was  recorded  at  the  date  of 
acquisition. FASB ASC 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality (formerly SOP 03-3), applies 
to loans acquired in a transfer with evidence of deterioration of credit quality for which it is probable, at acquisition, that the investor 
will be unable to collect all contractually required payments receivable. The Company is applying the provisions of FASB ASC 310-
30  to  all  loans  acquired  in  the  SFSB  acquisition.  The  Company  has  grouped  loans  together  based  on  common  risk  characteristics 
including product type, delinquency status and loan documentation requirements among others.  

The covered loans acquired are subject to credit review standards described above for non-covered loans. If and when credit 
deterioration occurs subsequent to the acquisition date, a provision for credit loss for covered loans will be charged to earnings for the 
full amount without regard to the shared loss agreements. 

The  Company  has  made  an  estimate  of  the  total  cash  flows  it  expects  to  collect  from  each  pool  of  loans,  which  includes 
undiscounted  expected  principal  and  interest.  The  excess  of  that  amount  over  the  fair  value  of  the  pool  is  referred  to  as  accretable 
yield.  Accretable  yield  is  recognized  as  interest  income  on  a  constant  yield  basis  over  the  life  of  the  pool.  The  Company  also 
determines each pool’s contractual principal and contractual interest payments. The excess of that amount over the total cash flows it 
expects to collect from the pool is referred to as nonaccretable difference, which is not accreted into income. Judgmental prepayment 
assumptions are applied to both contractually required payments and cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition. Over the life 
of  the  loan  or  pool,  the  Company  continues  to  estimate  cash  flows  expected  to  be  collected.  Subsequent  decreases  in  cash  flows 
expected to be collected over the life of the pool are recognized as an impairment in the current period through allowance for loan 
loss. Subsequent increases in expected or actual cash flows are first used to reverse any existing valuation allowance for that loan or 
pool. Any remaining increase in cash flows expected to be collected is recognized as an adjustment to the accretable yield with the 
amount of periodic accretion adjusted over the remaining life of the pool.

FDIC Indemnification Asset  

The  Company  is  accounting for  the  shared loss  agreements  as  an  indemnification asset  pursuant  to  the  guidance  in FASB 
ASC  805,  Business  Combinations.  The  FDIC  indemnification  asset  is  required  to  be  measured  in  the  same  manner  as  the  asset  or 
liability to which it relates. The FDIC indemnification asset is measured separately from the covered loans and other real estate owned 
assets  (OREO)  because  it  is  not  contractually  embedded  in  the  covered  loan  and  OREO  assets,  and  is  not  transferable  should  the 
Company choose to dispose of them. Fair value was estimated using projected cash flows available for loss sharing based on the credit 
adjustments  estimated  for  each  loan  pool  and  other  real  estate  owned  and  the  loss  sharing  percentages  outlined  in  the  shared  loss 
agreements. These cash flows were discounted to reflect the uncertainty of the timing and receipt of the loss sharing reimbursement 
from the FDIC.  

Because  the  acquired  loans  are  subject  to  shared  loss  agreements  and  a  corresponding  indemnification  asset  exists  to 
represent  the  value  of  expected  payments  from  the  FDIC,  increases  and  decreases  in  loan  accretable  yield  due  to  changing  loss 
expectations  will  also  have  an  impact  to  the  valuation  of  the  FDIC  indemnification  asset.  Improvement  in  loss  expectations  will 
typically increase loan accretable yield and decrease the value of the FDIC indemnification asset, and in some instances, result in an 
amortizable premium on the FDIC indemnification asset. Increases in loss expectations will typically be recognized as impairment in 
the current period through allowance for loan losses, resulting in additional noninterest income for the amount of the increase in the 
FDIC indemnification asset.  

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets  

The  Company  is  accounting  for  goodwill  and  other  intangible  assets  in  accordance  with  FASB  ASC  350,  Intangibles  - 
Goodwill and Others. FASB ASC 350 discontinues any amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives, but 
requires  an  impairment  review  at  least  annually  or  more  often  if  certain  conditions  exist.  Goodwill  impairment  charges  of  $5.727 
million were realized in 2010. All of the Company’s goodwill has been impaired and the carrying value at December 31, 2010 was $0. 
Additionally,  under  FASB  ASC  350,  acquired  intangible  assets  (such  as  core  deposit  intangibles)  are  separately  recognized  if  the 
benefit  of  the  assets  can  be  sold,  transferred,  licensed,  rented,  or  exchanged,  and  amortized  over  their  useful  lives  The  costs  of 
purchased  deposit  relationships  and  other  intangible  assets,  based  on  independent  valuation  by  a  qualified  third  party,  are  being 
amortized over their estimated lives. Core deposit intangible amortization expense charged to operations was $2.3 million for each of 
the  years  ended  December  31,  2012,  2011  and  2010.  The  core  deposit  intangible  is  evaluated  for  impairment  in  accordance  with 
FASB ASC 350.  

Income Taxes  

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the 
net deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the tax effects of the temporary differences 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.  

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  sheet  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 
statement of income. Under FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes, a valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that 
some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. In management’s opinion, based on a three year taxable income projection, 
tax strategies which would result in potential securities gains and the effects of off-setting deferred tax liabilities, it is more likely than 
not  that  the  deferred  tax  assets  are  realizable.  Included  in  deferred  tax  assets  are  the  tax  benefits  derived  from  net  operating  loss 
carryforwards totaling $7.8 million. Management expects to utilize all of these carryforward amounts prior to expiration.  

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U. S. federal income tax as well as various state income taxes. Years 2012 

through 2009 are open to examination by the respective tax authorities

Other Real Estate Owned  

Real estate acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure is held for sale and is initially recorded at the fair value at the date 
of  foreclosure  net  of  estimated  selling  costs,  establishing  a  new  cost  basis.  Subsequent  to  foreclosure,  valuations  are  periodically 
performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell. Revenues 
and  expenses  from  operations  and  changes  in  the  valuation  allowance  are  included  in  other  operating  expenses.  Costs  to  bring  a 
property to salable condition are capitalized up to the fair value of the property while costs to maintain a property in salable condition 
are expensed as incurred. The Company had $10.8 million and $10.3 million in other real estate, non-covered at December 31, 2012 
and 2011, respectively, and $3.4 million and $5.8 million in other real estate, covered at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.  

OVERVIEW  

At  December  31,  2012,  the  Company  had  total  assets  of  $1.153  billion,  an  increase  of  $60.8  million,  or  5.6%,  from  total 
assets of $1.092 billion at December 31, 2011. Total loans were $660.1 million at December 31, 2012, increasing $17.8 million, or 
2.8%, from $642.3 million at December 31, 2011.   The carrying value of FDIC covered loans declined $12.9 million, or 13.2%, from 
December 31, 2011 and was $84.6 million at December 31, 2012. Non-covered loans equaled $575.5 million at December 31, 2012, 
increasing  $30.8  million,  or  5.6%,  since  December  31,  2011.    Commercial  loans  secured  by  real  estate  represented  the  largest 
component, increasing $26.1 million, or 11.8%.  Mulitfamily loans increased $8.9 million and residential 1-4 family loans increased 
$8.2 million.  These increases were partially offset by declines in construction and land development loans of $14.6 million, or 19.2%.  

The  Company’s  securities  portfolio,  including  equity  securities,  increased  $54.7  million,  or  18.0%,  during  the  year  ended 
December 31, 2012, to $358.8 million, with realized gains of $1.5 million, through sales activity. These gains were taken during the 
year in a portfolio repositioning strategy to mitigate interest rate risk in a higher rate environment.  In a higher rate environment, the 
liquidity  of  fixed  rate  securities  is  compromised  and  interest  rate  risk  increases.    The  Company  has  shifted  from  mortgage-backed 
securities balances to floating rate securities issued by the Small Business Administration (SBA) and high quality state, county and 
municipalities.  Additionally, the Company took a short-term position in a $40 million U.S. Treasury issue at December 31, 2012 to 
fully invest excess cash and due balances. 

The Company is required to account for the effect of market changes in the value of securities available-for-sale (AFS) under 
FASB ASC 320, Investments - Debt and Equity Securities. The market value of the December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 AFS 
portfolio was $309.1 million and $232.8 million, respectively. The Company had a net unrealized gain in the AFS portfolio of $5.9 
million and $4.9 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.  

Interest bearing deposits at December 31, 2012 were $896.3 million, an increase of $27.8 million from December 31, 2011. 
Time deposits $100,000 and over increased $47.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2012 as management obtained $41.0 
million in low cost brokered and municipal certificates.  Low cost NOW accounts increased $14.2 million, or 11.0%, during 2012.  
Savings deposits increased $7.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2012.  Time deposits less than $100,000 decreased $39.0 
million during 2012 as the availability of low cost funds $100,000 and over allowed management to lower rates on retail certificates.  
MMDA accounts declined $2.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2012 and were $113.2 million. 

The Company had FHLB advances of $49.8 million at December 31, 2012 and $37.0 million at December 31, 2011.  During 
the third quarter of 2012, the Company obtained an additional $13.0 million in FHLB advances, as well as rolling over $22.0 million 
in maturing advances at much lower rates than was being carried prior to their maturities during the quarter.  The Company anticipates 
that the repricing on the $37.0 million will result in approximately $480,000 in after tax savings and that net after tax savings on total 
FHLB borrowings will be approximately $370,000. 

Stockholders’  equity  was  $115.3  million  at  December  31,  2012  and  $111.2  million  at  December  31,  2011.  The  equity-to-

asset ratio was 10.0% at December 31, 2012 and 10.2% at December 31, 2011.  

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS  

Net Income  

For the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended December 31, 2011, net income increased $4.1 million, or 
286.6%,  from  net  income  of  $1.4  million  in  2011  to  net  income  of  $5.6  million  in  2012.    Net  income  available  to  common 
stockholders was $4.5 million, or $0.21 per common share on a diluted basis, for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared with 
net  income  available  to  common  stockholders  of  $354,000,  or  $0.02  per  common  share  on  a  diluted  basis,  for  the  year  ended 
December  31,  2011.  The  increase  of  $4.1  million  in  net  income  available  to  common  stockholders  was  driven  by  a  decrease  in 
noninterest expense of $6.6 million, or 14.3%, a decrease in noninterest income of $907,000, or 16.8%, and a reduction in provision 
for loan losses of $298,000, or 19.9%.  This increase was offset by an increase in income tax expense of $2.1 million.

For the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to the year ended December 31, 2010, net income increased $22.4 million, 
or  106.9%,  from  net  loss  of  $21.0  million  in  2010  to  net  income  of  $1.4  million  in  2011.    Net  income  available  to  common 
stockholders was $354,000, or $0.02 per common share on a diluted basis for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared with a net 
loss available to common stockholders of $22.1 million, or $1.03 per common share on a diluted basis, for the year ended December 
31, 2010.   The improvement in net income for 2011 compared with 2010 was driven by a reduction of $25.9 million in provision for 
loan  losses  and  a  reduction  of  $5.7  million  in  impairment  of  goodwill  charges.    All  then  remaining  goodwill  balances  were  fully 
written off in 2010.  Net income was additionally aided in 2011, compared with 2010, through expense reductions of $3.7 million, 
excluding impairment of goodwill. 

Net Interest Income  

The Company’s operating results depend primarily on its net interest income, which is the difference between interest income 
on  interest-earning  assets,  including  securities  and  loans,  and  interest  expense  incurred  on  interest-bearing  liabilities,  including 
deposits and other borrowed funds.  Net interest income is affected by changes in the amount and mix of interest-earning assets and 
interest-bearing liabilities, referred to as a “volume change.” It is also affected by changes in yields earned on interest-earning assets 
and rates paid on interest-bearing deposits and other borrowed funds, referred to as a “rate change.”  

Net  interest  income  was  $44.0  million  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2012,  compared  with  $43.8  million  for  the  year 
ended December 31, 2011.  This represents an increase in net interest income for 2012 of $220,000.  A decline of $2.3 million in the 
yield on earning assets was virtually offset by a decline of $2.5 million in the cost of interest bearing liabilities, which resulted in the 
increase of 0.5% in net interest income.  The tax equivalent net interest margin decreased from 4.72% for the year ended December 
31, 2011 to 4.53% for the year ended December 31, 2012.  This was driven by a decrease in interest spread from 4.66% in 2011 to 
4.46% in 2012.  Interest spread is the product of yield on earning assets less cost of total interest-bearing liabilities. 

Net  interest  income  was  $43.8  million  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2011,  compared  with  $40.5  million  for  the  year 
ended December 31, 2010.  The increase in net interest income was primarily the result of decreases of $104.5 million, or 10.4%, in 
the average balances of interest bearing liabilities coupled with lower rates, which reduced interest expense 33.5%, from $18.4 million 
in 2010 to $12.2 million in 2011.  The tax equivalent net interest margin increased to 4.72% for the year ended December 31, 2011 
from 4.10% for the year ended December 31, 2010.   

Interest and fees on non-covered loans increased $1.4 million, or 4.7%, to $30.7 million during 2012. Interest and fee income 
on  covered  loans  equaled  $14.1  million  during  2012.  Cost  of  interest  bearing  liabilities  during  2012  totaled  $9.7  million,  of  which 
interest  on  deposits  was  $8.5  million.  This  compares  with  $12.2  million  in  total  interest  expense  and  $10.8  million  in  interest  on 
deposits, respectively, in 2011.  

Interest and fees on non-covered loans decreased $4.2 million, or 12.5%, to aggregate $29.3 million during 2011. Interest and 
fee income on covered loans equaled $17.6 million during 2011. Cost of interest bearing liabilities during 2011 totaled $12.2 million, 
of  which  interest  on  deposits  was  $10.8  million.  This  compares  with  $18.4  million  in  total  interest  expense  and  $17.0  million  in 
interest on deposits, respectively, in 2010. 

The Company’s total loan to deposit ratio was 67.75% at December 31, 2012 versus 68.80% at December 31, 2011. The ratio 
remained fairly constant during the year as management was successful in generating new loan growth in the later part of 2012.  This 
was offset by a decline of $12.9 million in the self-liquidating covered loan portfolio.  Deposit balances also grew $40.8 million in 
2012, which downwardly affected the total loan to deposit ratio. 

The Company’s total loan to deposit ratio was 68.80% at December 31, 2011 versus 66.67% at December 31, 2010. The ratio 
remained fairly constant during the year as management was successful in generating new loan growth in the later part of 2011 that  
offset a decline of $18.0 million in the self-liquidating covered loan portfolio.  Deposit balances also declined $28.2 million in 2011, 
which positively affected the total loan to deposit ratio.  

  The Bank’s tax equivalent net interest margin improved 27 basis points during 2010, from 3.83% in 2009 to 4.10% in 2010, 
mainly from management lowering the cost of funds throughout the year. Net interest income increased from $39.4 million in 2009, to 
$40.5 million in 2010. Interest and fees on non-covered loans decreased $2.6 million, or 7.2%, to aggregate $33.4 million during 2010. 
Interest and fee income on covered loans equaled $13.8 million during 2010. Cost of interest bearing liabilities during 2010 totaled 
$18.4 million, of which interest on deposits was $17.0 million. 

The following table presents the total amount of average balances, interest income from average interest-earning assets and 
the resulting yields, as well as the interest expense on average interest-bearing liabilities, expressed both in dollars and rates. Except as

carrying a zero yield.

  Management actively monitors the Company’s asset quality and provides specific loss provisions when necessary. Provisions 
for loan losses are charged to income to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level deemed appropriate by management of the 
Company  based  on  such  factors  as  historical  credit  loss  experience,  industry  diversification  of  the  commercial  loan  portfolio,  the 
amount  of  nonperforming  loans  and  related  collateral,  the  volume  growth  and  composition  of  the  loan  portfolio,  current  economic 
conditions that  may affect the borrower’s ability to pay and the value of collateral, the evaluation of the loan portfolio through the 
internal  loan  review  function  and  other  relevant  factors.    See  Allowance  for  Loan  Losses  on  Non-covered  Lloans  in  the  Critical 
Accounting Policies section above for further discussion.   

Loans are charged-off against the allowance for loan losses when appropriate. Although management believes it uses the best 
information  available  to  make  determinations  with  respect  to  the  provision  for  loan  losses,  future  adjustments  may  be  necessary  if 
economic conditions differ from the assumptions used in making the initial determinations.  

Management also actively monitors its covered loan portfolio for impairment and necessary loan loss provisions.  Provisions 

for covered loans may be necessary due to a change in expected cash flows or an increase in expected losses within a pool of loans. 

The provision for loan losses was $1.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared with $1.5 million for the year 
ended December 31, 2011.The provision for loan losses on non-covered loans was $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 
compared with $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2011.  The provision for loan losses on covered loans was a $250,000 
credit  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2012,  which  was  the  result  of  improvement  in  expected  losses  on  the  Company’s  FDIC 
covered  portfolio,  which  the  Company  recognized  in  the  first  quarter  of  the  year.    There  was  no  provision  for  the  covered  loan 
portfolio for the year ended December 31, 2011. 

In  2010,  a  number  of  factors  influenced  credit  risk  management  practices,  including  the  economy,  the  rising  level  of 
nonperforming  assets,  deterioration  within  the  Company’s  loan  portfolio  and  regulatory  concerns.    As  a  result,  the  Company  took 
provisions for loan losses totaling $27.4 million in 2010.  In 2011, improved credit risk management, which resulted in a lower level 

33 

 
 
 
 
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
 
 
  
 
  
  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
of nonperforming assets, influenced the assessment the Company makes concerning the adequacy of its allowance for loan losses and 
the need for a provision. In 2011, the Company had provision for loan losses of $1.5 million.   

The allowance for loan losses was 61.4% of non-covered nonaccrual loans at December 31, 2012, compared with 52.0% of 
non-covered nonaccrual loans at December 31, 2011. The ratio of allowance for loan losses to total non-covered loans was 2.25% at 
December 31, 2012, compared with 2.72% at December 31, 2011.  Net charged-off loans were $3.4 million in 2012, compared with 
$12.2 million in 2011.  

For the year ended December 31, 2010, a provision for loan losses on the covered loan portfolio of $880,000 established an 
allowance for covered loan losses of the same amount.  This provision was due solely to timing differences in expected cash flows, 
and not an increase in expected losses. This provision occurred in the second quarter of 2010 and was in accordance with FASB ASC 
310-30. The allowance for covered loans was $776,000 at December 31, 2011, and $829,000 at December 31, 2010.    

  While the Maryland loan portfolio contains significant risk, it was considered in determining the initial fair value, which was 
reflected in adjustments recorded at the time of the SFSB transaction, less the FDIC guaranteed portion of losses on covered assets. 
See the Asset Quality discussion below for further analysis.  

Noninterest Income  

For the year ended December 31, 2012, noninterest income equaled $4.5 million, compared with $5.4 million for the year 
ended December 31, 2011. This reduction of $907,000 was due to a decrease in gain on sale of securities of $1.4 million, from $2.9 
million for the year ended December 31, 2011 to $1.5 million for the same period in 2012.  Other noninterest income also declined 
$800,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared with the same period in 2011.  Other noninterest income was $2.1 million 
for the year ended December 31, 2012 and $2.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. Offsetting these declines, was a $1.0 
million reduction in loss on OREO, from a loss of $2.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 to a loss of $1.8 million for the 
same period in 2012.   

For the year ended December 31, 2011, noninterest income equaled $5.4 million, compared with $4.8 million for the year 
ended  December  31,  2010,  an  increase  of  $604,000.  Losses  on  OREO  during  2011  improved  $2.2  million  compared  with  2010.  
Offsetting that improvement were declines in gain on sale of securities of $720,000, from $3.6 million in 2010 to $2.9 million in 2011, 
and other noninterest income of $898,000 in 2011 compared with 2010.  Other noninterest income was $3.8 million for the year ended 
December 31, 2010 and $2.9 million for the year ended December 30, 2011.   

  Other noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2010 included net write-downs and losses of $849,000 on covered 
OREO in the FDIC acquired SFSB portfolio, comprised of $4.2 million of write-downs and sales offset by $3.4 million due from the 
FDIC.  The net amount reflects the Company’s 20% loss portion under the shared loss agreements with the FDIC.  

Noninterest Expenses  

For the year ended December 31, 2012, noninterest expenses declined $6.6 million, or 14.3%, when compared with the same 
period in 2011.  Noninterest expenses were $46.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 and declined to $39.6 million for the 
same period in 2012. FDIC indemnification asset amortization was the largest component of this change, from $10.4 million for the 
year ended December 31, 2011 to $6.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2012.  This represents a decrease of $3.4 million or 
33.1%.    Amortization  of  the  FDIC  indemnification  asset  is  the  result  of  better  than  expected  performance  on  the  covered  loan 
portfolio. This better than expected performance also resulted in increased accretable yield and interest income on the covered loan 
portfolio. FDIC assessment decreased $1.3 million, and was $2.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 compared with $1.5 
million for the same period in 2012, a decrease of 46.7%.  Other operating expenses were $6.3 million and declined $838,000 from 
$7.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011.  Additional declines for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared with the 
year  ended  December  31,  2011  were  $393,000  in  legal  fees,  $192,000  in  professional  fees,  $179,000  in  occupancy  expenses,  
$150,000  in  equipment  expenses,  $92,000  in  salaries  and  employee benefits  and  $40,000  in  data  processing  fees.    The  decrease  in 
legal fees and professional fees were primarily a reflection of improved credit quality.  Other improvements reflect a concerted effort 
on the part of management to drive overhead expenses lower. 

For the year ended December 31, 2011, noninterest expenses were $46.2 million, declining 4.5%, or $2.2 million, from $48.4 
million  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2010.    Excluding  an  impairment  of  goodwill  charge  taken  in  2010,  noninterest  expenses 
would  have  increased  by  $3.5  million,  or  8.3%,  from  $42.7  million  in  2010.  This  change  was  due  primarily  to  accelerated  FDIC 
indemnification  asset  amortization  of  $7.2  million,  from  $3.2  million  for  2010  to  $10.4  million  for  2011.    The  increase  in  FDIC 
indemnification asset amortization correlates to the increased yield realized in interest and fees on FDIC covered loans over the same 
time  frame,  as  projected  losses  carried  within  the  FDIC  indemnification  asset  have  been  realized  instead,  through  payment 
performance  of  the  associated  borrowers.    Management  continues  to  refine  and  enhance  the  methodology  to  amortize  the 
34 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
 
indemnification  asset  based  on  the  historical  and  projected  cash  flows  of  the  FDIC  covered  loan  portfolio.    These  enhancements 
should result in amortization of the indemnification asset that more closely correlates to the accretable yield of the FDIC covered loan 
portfolio. Additionally, other operating expenses increased $406,000, from $6.8 million in 2010 to $7.2 million in 2011, and FDIC 
assessment increased by $393,000, from $2.4 million to $2.8 million over the same periods. 

   Offsetting  these  increases  in  noninterest  expense  in  2011  compared  to  2010  (excluding  the  impairment  of  goodwill)  were 
decreases in salaries and employee benefits, which declined 13.5%, or $2.6 million, from $19.2 million in 2010 to $16.6 million in 
2011, and professional fees, which declined 67.6%, or $1.2 million, from $1.8 million in 2010 to $583,000 in 2011.  Other decreases 
of $100,000 or more occurred in data processing, which declined $441,000 in 2011, and equipment expense, which declined $157,000 
in 2011. 

Income Taxes  

For the year ended December 31, 2012, income tax expense was $2.1 million, compared with income tax expense of $60,000 

and income tax benefit of $9.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. 

The Company has evaluated the need for a deferred tax valuation allowance for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 
in accordance with FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes. Based on a three year taxable income projection, tax strategies which would result 
in potential securities gains and the effects of off-setting deferred tax liabilities, the Company believes that it is more likely than not 
that the deferred tax assets are realizable. Therefore, no allowance was required.   

Asset Quality – non-covered assets  

The  allowance  for  loan  losses  represents  management’s  estimate  of  the  amount  appropriate  to  provide  for  probable  losses 

inherent in the loan portfolio.  

Non-covered loan quality is continually monitored, and the Company’s management has established an allowance for loan 
losses  that  it  believes  is  appropriate  for  the  risks  inherent  in  the  loan  portfolio.  Among  other  factors,  management  considers  the 
Company’s historical loss experience, the size and composition of the loan portfolio, the value and appropriateness of collateral and 
guarantors, non-performing  loans  and  current  and  anticipated  economic  conditions.  There  are  additional  risks  of future  loan  losses, 
which  cannot  be  precisely  quantified  nor  attributed  to  particular  loans  or  classes  of  loans.  Because  those  risks  include  general 
economic trends, as well as conditions affecting individual borrowers, the allowance for loan losses is an estimate. The allowance is 
also  subject  to  regulatory  examinations  and  determination  as  to  appropriateness,  which  may  take  into  account  such  factors  as  the 
methodology  used  to  calculate  the  allowance  and  size  of  the  allowance  in  comparison  to  peer  companies  identified  by  regulatory 
agencies.  See  Allowance  for  Loan  Losses  on  Non-covered  Loans  in  the  Critical  Accounting  Policies  section  above  for  further 
discussion. 

The Company maintains a list of non-covered loans that have potential weaknesses and thus may need special attention. This 
nonperforming loan list is used to monitor such loans and is used in the determination of the appropriateness of the allowance for loan 
losses. At December 31, 2012, nonperforming assets totaled $32.4 million and net charge-offs were $3.4 million. This compares with 
nonperforming assets of $40.8 million and net charge-offs of $12.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011.  

Nonperforming  non-covered  loans  were  $21.5  million  at  December  31,  2012  compared  to  $30.5  million  at  December  31, 
2011, a   $9.0 million decrease. Approximately $13.9 million in loans were placed on nonperforming status, of which $9.9 million 
relate to loans for commercial real estate, residential real estate, and construction and land development, which are secured by real 
estate.  The remaining increase in nonperforming loans during 2012 are all smaller credit relationships. Offsetting the additions were 
$5.5  million  in  charge-offs  taken  during  2012,  of  which  two  construction  and  land  development  loans  totaled  $1.4  million.  The 
remaining  charge-offs  were  centered  in  commercial  real  estate,  construction  and  land  development,  residential  real  estate,  and 
commercial loans.  In 2012, foreclosures totaled $5.2 million, $6.8 million in loans were reinstated to accruing status, and $5.4 million 
in balances were paid down.  

Nonperforming  non-covered  loans  were  $30.5  million  at  December  31,  2011  compared  to  $36.9  million  at  December  31, 
2010, a $6.4 million decrease.  Approximately $20.9 million in loans were placed in nonaccrual status. Approximately $18.2 million 
of these additions relate to loans for commercial real estate, residential real estate, and construction and land development, which are 
secured by real estate.  The remaining increase in nonperforming loans during 2011 are all smaller credit relationships. Offsetting the 
additions  were  $7.9  million  in  charge-offs  taken  during  2011,  of  which  one  commercial  loan  totaled  $1.6  million.  The  remaining 
charge-offs were centered in commercial real estate, construction and land development, residential real estate, and commercial loans.  
In 2011, foreclosures totaled $7.8 million, $5.3 million in loans were reinstated to accruing status, and $6.3 million in balances were 
paid down.

(1)  As of first quarter 2011, the Company includes the reserve on impaired loans evaluated as a pool as part of the specific reserve.  The 
amount of this reserve was $346,000 as of December 31, 2011.   Impaired loans were not evaluated as pools in 2009 or 2008. 

  At December 31, 2012, the Company had 10 construction and land development credit relationships in nonaccrual status. The 
borrowers for nine of these relationships are residential land developers, and the borrower under the remaining loan is a commercial 
land  developer.  All  of  the  relationships  are  secured  by  the  real  estate  to  be  developed,  and  almost  all  of  such  projects  are  in  the 
Company’s  central  Virginia  market.  The  total  amount  of  the  credit  exposure  outstanding  at  December 31,  2012  was  $8.8  million. 
These loans have either been charged-down or sufficiently reserved against to equate to the current expected realizable value. 

  During  2012,  the  Company  charged  off  $1.4  million  with  respect  to  three  of  these  relationships.  The  total  amount  of  the 
allowance for loan losses attributed to all 10 relationships was $818,000 at December 31, 2012, or 9.28% of the total credit exposure 
outstanding.  The  Company  establishes  its  reserves  as  described  above  in  Allowance  for  Loan  Losses  on  Non-covered  Loans  in  the 
“Critical Accounting Policies” section. In conjunction with the impairment analysis the Company performs as part of its allowance 
methodology, the Company orders appraisals for all loans with balances in excess of $250,000 unless there existed an appraisal that 
was not older than 12 months. The Company orders an automated valuation for balances between $100,000 and $250,000 and uses a 
ratio  analysis  for  balances  less  than  $100,000.  The  Company  maintains  detailed  analysis  and  other  information  for  its  allowance 
methodology, both for internal purposes and for review by its regulators. 

The Company performs troubled debt restructures (TDR) and other various loan workouts whereby an existing loan may be 
restructured into multiple new loans. At December 31, 2012 and  2011,  the Company had 17 loans and 15 loans, respectively, that 
met the definition of a TDR, which are loans that for reasons related to the debtor’s financial difficulties have been restructured on 
terms and conditions that would otherwise not be offered or granted. There were three loans at December 31, 2012 and two loans at 
December 31, 2011 that were restructured using multiple new loans.  At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the aggregated outstanding 
principal of these loans was $10.0 million and $8.3 million, respectively, of which $2.4 million and $6.5 million, respectively, were 
classified as nonaccrual.  

The primary benefit of the restructured multiple loan workout strategy is to maximize the potential return by restructuring the 
loan into a “good loan” (the A loan) and a “bad loan” (the B loan). The impact on interest is positive because the Bank is collecting

interest on the A loan rather than potentially not collecting interest on the entire original loan structure. The A loan is underwritten 
pursuant  to  the  Bank’s  standard  requirements  and  graded  accordingly.  The  B  loan  is  classified  as  either  “doubtful”  or  “loss”.  An 
impairment analysis is performed on the B loan, and, based on its results, all or a portion of the B note is charged-off or a specific loan 
loss reserve is established.  

The Company does not modify its nonaccrual policies in this arrangement, and the A loan and the B loan stand on their own 
terms. At inception, this structure meets the definition of a TDR. If the loan is on nonaccrual at the time of restructure, the A loan is 
held on nonaccrual until six consecutive payments have been received, at which time it may be put back on an accrual status. The B 
loan is placed on nonaccrual. Under the terms of each loan, the borrower’s payment is contractually due. 

The  following  table  presents  the  composition  of  the  Company’s  nonaccrual  loans  as  of  December  31  of  the  years  presented

As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, total impaired non-covered loans equaled $22.4 million and $35.2 million, respectively.  

Asset Quality –covered assets  

Loans accounted for under FASB ASC 310-30 are generally considered accruing and performing loans as the loans accrete 
interest  income  over  the  estimated  life  of  the  loan.  Accordingly,  acquired  impaired  loans  that  are  contractually  past  due  are  still 
considered to be accruing and performing loans.  

The Company makes an estimate of the total cash flows that it expects to collect from a pool of covered loans, which include 
undiscounted expected principal and interest. Over the life of the loan or pool, the Company continues to estimate cash flows expected 
to be collected. Subsequent decreases in cash flows expected to be collected over the life of the pool are recognized as impairment in 
the  current  period  through  the  allowance for loan  losses. Subsequent  increases  in  expected  cash  flows  are  first  used  to  reverse  any 
existing valuation allowance for that loan or pool. Any remaining increase in cash flows expected to be collected is recognized as an 
adjustment to the yield over the remaining life of the pool.  

Covered  assets  that  would  normally  be  considered  nonperforming  except  for  the  accounting  requirements  regarding 
purchased impaired loans and other real estate owned covered by the shared loss agreements at December 31 of the years presented 
are as follows (dollars in thousands):

Loans  

Total  loans,  including  FDIC  covered  loans,  at  December 31,  2012  were  $660.1  million,  an  increase  of  $17.8  million, 
compared with $642.3 million at December 31, 2011. The fair value of covered loans aggregated $84.6 million and $97.6 million at 
December 31,  2012  and  2011,  respectively.  The  non-covered  loan  portfolio  increased  $30.8  million,  or  5.7%  during  2012.  The 
Company is aggressively working to change the mix of the non-covered portfolio away from large construction and land development 
loans and more into commercial and consumer secured installment loans

Allowance for Credit Losses on Covered Loans  

The  covered  loans  are  subject  to  credit  review  standards  for  non-covered  loans.  If  and  when  credit  deterioration  occurs 
subsequent to the date that they were acquired, a provision for credit loss for covered loans will be charged to earnings for the full 
amount without regard to the shared loss agreements. The Company  makes an estimate of the total cash flows it expects to collect 
from  a  pool  of  covered  loans,  which  includes  undiscounted  expected  principal  and  interest.  Over  the  life  of  the  loan  or  pool,  the 
Company continues to estimate cash flows expected to be collected. Subsequent decreases in cash flows expected to be collected over 
the life of the pool are recognized as impairment in the current period through the allowance for loan losses. Subsequent increases in 
expected cash flows are first used to reverse any existing valuation allowance for that loan or pool. Any remaining increase in cash 
flows expected to be collected is recognized as an adjustment to the yield over the remaining life of the pool.  

Securities  

As of December 31, 2012, securities equaled $358.8 million, an increase of $54.7 million, or 18.0%, from the prior year end. 
At  December  31,  2012,  the  Company  had  securities  designated  available  for  sale  of  $309.1  million  and  held  to  maturity  of  $42.3 
million, with equity securities totaling $7.4 million. In 2012, the Company realized $985,000 in gains on sales of securities, net of tax. 
These  net  gains  were  taken  during  the  year  in  a  portfolio  repositioning  strategy  to  mitigate  interest  rate  risk  in  a  higher  rate 
environment.  In a higher rate environment, the liquidity of fixed rate securities is compromised and interest rate risk increases.  The 
Company has shifted from mortgage-backed securities balances to floating rate securities issued by the Small Business Administration 
(SBA) and high quality state, county and municipalities.  Additionally, the Company took a short-term position in a $40 million U.S. 
Treasury issue at December 31, 2012 to fully invest excess cash and due balances.  

As of December 31, 2011, securities equaled $304.1 million, a decrease of $3.4 million, or 1.1%, from the prior year end. At 
December 31, 2011, the Company had securities designated available for sale of $232.8 million and held to maturity of $64.4 million, 
with equity securities totaling $6.9 million. In 2011, the Company realized $1.9 million in gains on sales of securities, net of tax. A 
change  in  the  portfolio  mix  resulted  in  an  increase  in  mortgage  backed  securities,  which  provide  monthly  cash  flows,  and  will 
positively affect reinvestment in higher rates.

Liquidity  

Liquidity represents the Company’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, and certain investment securities. As a result of the Company’s management of liquid assets 
and  the  ability  to  generate  liquidity  through  liability  funding,  management  believes  that  the  Company  maintains  overall  liquidity 
sufficient to satisfy its depositors’ requirements and meet its customers’ credit needs.

The Company’s results of operations are significantly affected by its ability to manage effectively the interest rate sensitivity 
and maturity of its interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. At December 31, 2012, the Company’s interest-earning assets 
exceeded its interest-bearing liabilities by approximately $76.1 million versus $47.9 million at December 31, 2011.

The determination of capital adequacy depends upon a number of factors, such as asset quality, liquidity, earnings, growth 
trends  and  economic  conditions.  The  Company  seeks  to  maintain  a  strong  capital  base  to  support  its  growth  and  expansion  plans, 
provide  stability  to  current  operations  and  promote  public  confidence  in  the  Company.    The  adequacy  of  the  Company’s  capital  is 
reviewed  by  management  on  an  ongoing  basis  with  reference  to  size,  composition,  and  quality  of  the  Company’s  balance  sheet. 
Moreover, capital levels are regulated and compared with industry standards. Management seeks to maintain a capital level exceeding 
regulatory statutes of “well capitalized” which is consistent to its overall growth plans, yet allows the Company to provide the optimal 
return to its shareholders.  

The federal banking regulators have defined three tests for assessing the capital strength and adequacy of banks, based on two 
definitions of capital. “Tier 1 capital” is defined as common equity, retained earnings and qualifying perpetual preferred stock, less 
certain  intangibles..  “Tier 2  capital”  is  defined  as  specific  subordinated  debt,  some  hybrid  capital  instruments  and  other  qualifying 
preferred stock and a limited amount of the loan loss allowance. “Total capital” is defined as tier 1 capital plus tier 2 capital. Three 
risk-based  capital  ratios  are  computed  using  the  above  capital  definitions,  total  assets  and  risk-weighted  assets  and  are  measured 
against regulatory minimums to ascertain adequacy. All assets and off-balance sheet risk items are grouped into categories according 
to  degree  of  risk  and  assigned  a  risk-weighting  and  the  resulting  total  is  risk-weighted  assets.  “Tier 1  risk-based  capital”  is  tier 1 
capital divided by risk-weighted assets. “Total risk-based capital” is total capital divided by risk-weighted assets. The leverage ratio is 
tier 1 capital divided by adjusted average total assets.

All capital ratios exceed regulatory minimums for well capitalized institutions as referenced in Note 20 to the Consolidated 
Financial Statements. In the fourth quarter of 2003, BOE issued trust preferred subordinated debt that qualifies as regulatory capital. 
This trust preferred debt has a 30-year maturity with a 5-year call option and was issued at a rate of three month LIBOR plus 3.00%. 
The weighted average cost of this instrument was 3.57%, 3.43%, and 3.34% during 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively.

On December 19, 2008, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement with the U.S. Treasury pursuant to which it issued 
17,680 shares of the Company’s Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, having a liquidation preference of $1,000 
per share, for a total price of $17.68 million. The issuance was made pursuant to the Treasury’s Capital Purchase Plan under TARP. 
The Preferred Stock pays a cumulative dividend at a rate of 5% per year during the first five years and thereafter at 9% per year. As 
part of its purchase of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Treasury Department received a warrant to purchase 780,000 shares of the 
Company’s common stock at an initial per share exercise price of $3.40. 

On December 12, 2003, BOE Statutory Trust I, a wholly-owned subsidiary of BOE, was formed for the purpose of issuing 
redeemable  capital  securities.  On  December 12,  2003,  $4.124 million  of  trust  preferred  securities  were  issued  through  a  direct 
placement. The securities have a LIBOR-indexed floating rate of interest. The average interest rate at December 31, 2012, 2011 and 
2010  was 3.57%,  3.43%  and  3.34%,  respectively.  The  securities  have  a  mandatory  redemption  date of December 12,  2033  and  are 
subject  to  varying  call  provisions  which  began  December 12,  2008.  The  trust  preferred  notes  may  be  included  in  tier 1  capital  for 
regulatory capital adequacy determination purposes up to 25% of tier 1 capital after its inclusion. The portion of the trust preferred not 
considered as tier 1 capital may be included in tier 2 capital. At December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, all trust preferred notes 
were included in tier 1 capital.  

Financial Ratios  

Financial  ratios  give  investors  a  way  to  compare  companies  within  industries  to  analyze  financial  performance.  Return  on 
average assets is net income as a percentage of average total assets. It is a key profitability ratio that indicates how effectively a bank 
has  used  its  total  resources.  Return  on  average  equity  is  net  income  as  a  percentage  of  average  stockholders’  equity.  It  provides  a 
measure of how productively a Company’s equity has been employed. Dividend payout ratio is the percentage of net income paid to 
common stockholders as cash dividends during a given period. The Company did not pay dividends to common stockholders during 
the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.  It is computed by dividing dividends per share by net income per common share. The 
Company  utilizes  leverage  within  guidelines  prescribed  by  federal  banking  regulators  as  described  in  the  section  “Capital 
Requirements” in the preceding section. Leverage is average stockholders’ equity divided by average total assets.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a client 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. 
Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily 
represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each client’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.

Unfunded  commitments  under  lines  of  credit  are  commitments  for  possible  future  extensions  of  credit  to  existing  clients. 

Those lines of credit may be drawn upon only to the total extent to which the Company is committed.  

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a client to a 
third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, 
bond financing, and similar transactions. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in 
extending loan facilities to clients. The Company holds certificates of deposit, deposit accounts, and real estate as collateral supporting 
those commitments for which collateral is deemed necessary.

Beginning  January 1,  2009,  business  combinations  must  be  accounted  for  under  FASB  ASC  805,  Business  Combinations, 
using the acquisition method of accounting. The Company has accounted for its previous business combinations under the purchase 
method  of  accounting.  The  original  merger  between  the  Company,  TFC  and  BOE  as  well  as  acquisition  of  SFSB  were  business 
combinations accounted  for using  the  purchase  method of  accounting. TCB  transaction  was  accounted  for as  an  asset  purchase. At 
December 31,  2012,  2011  and  2010,  core  deposit  intangible  assets  totaled  $10.3  million,  $12.6  million  and  $14.8  milllion, 
respectively.   Goodwill was zero at December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010. 

In  reporting  the  results  of  2012,  2011  and  2010  in  Item  6  above,  the  Company  has  provided  supplemental  performance 
measures  on  an  operating  or  tangible  basis.  Such  measures  exclude  amortization  expense  related  to  intangible  assets,  such  as  core 
deposit  intangibles.  In  addition,  the  most  significant  impact  on  the  Company’s  GAAP  earnings  in  2010  arose  from  the  goodwill 
impairment charge described earlier in this section. The goodwill impairment charge was a non-cash, traditionally non-recurring item 
that created the GAAP loss for the year, and thus the supplemental performance measures exclude this item. The Company believes 
these  measures  are  useful  to  investors  as  they  exclude  non-operating  adjustments  resulting  from  acquisition  activity  and  allow 
investors to see the combined economic results of the organization. Non-GAAP operating earnings per share was $0.33 for the year 
ended December 31, 2012 compared with $0.14 in 2011 and negative $0.64 in 2010. Non-GAAP return on average tangible common 
equity  and  assets  for  the  year  ended  December 31,  2012  was  8.31%  and  0.65%,  respectively,  compared  with  3.80%  and  0.28%, 
respectively, in 2011 and negative16.60% and negative 1.17%, respectively, in 2010.

  These measures are a supplement to GAAP used to prepare the Company’s financial statements and should not be viewed as 
a substitute for GAAP measures. In addition, the Company’s non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to non-GAAP measures of 
other companies. The following table reconciles these non-GAAP measures from their respective GAAP basis measures for the years 
ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 (dollars in thousands):

ITEM 7A. 

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK  

Market risk is the risk of loss in a financial instrument arising from adverse changes in market rates or prices such as interest 
rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and equity prices. The Company’s primary market risk exposure is interest 
rate risk. The ongoing monitoring and management of interest rate risk is an important component of the Company’s asset/liability 
management process, which is governed by policies established by its Board of Directors that are reviewed and approved annually. 
The Board of Directors delegates responsibility for carrying out asset/liability management policies to the Asset/Liability Committee 
(ALCO)  of  the  Bank.  In  this  capacity,  ALCO  develops  guidelines  and  strategies  that  govern  the  Company’s  asset/liability 
management related activities, based upon estimated market risk sensitivity, policy limits and overall market interest rate levels and 
trends. 

Interest rate risk represents the sensitivity of earnings to changes in market interest rates. As interest rates change, the interest 
income  and  expense  streams  associated  with  the  Company’s  financial  instruments  also  change,  affecting  net  interest  income,  the 
primary component of the Company’s earnings. ALCO uses the results of a detailed and dynamic simulation model to quantify the 
estimated exposure of net interest income to sustained interest rate changes. While ALCO routinely monitors simulated net interest 
income sensitivity over various periods, it also employs additional tools to monitor potential longer-term interest rate risk.  

The simulation model captures the impact of changing interest rates on the interest income received and interest expense paid 
on all assets and liabilities reflected on the Company’s balance sheet. The simulation model is prepared and updated monthly.  This 
sensitivity analysis is compared to ALCO policy limits, which specify a maximum tolerance level for net interest income exposure 
over a one-year horizon, assuming no balance sheet growth, given a 200 basis point upward shift and a 200 basis point downward shift 
in interest rates. A parallel shift in rates over a 12-month period is assumed.

At December 31, 2012, the Company’s interest rate risk model indicated that, in a rising rate environment of 200 basis points 
over a 12 month period, net interest income could decrease by 1.9%. For the same time period, the interest rate risk model indicated 
that  in  a  declining  rate  environment  of  200  basis  points,  net  interest  income  could  decrease  by  2.4%.  While  these  percentages  are 
subjective  based  upon  assumptions  used  within  the  model,  management  believes  the  balance  sheet  is  appropriately  balanced  with 
acceptable risk to changes in interest rates.  

The preceding sensitivity analysis does not represent a forecast and should not be relied upon as being indicative of expected 
operating results. These hypothetical estimates are based upon numerous assumptions, including the nature and timing of interest rate 
levels such as yield curve shape, prepayments on loans and securities, deposit decay rates, pricing decisions on loans and deposits, 
reinvestment  or  replacement  of  asset  and  liability  cash  flows.  While  assumptions  are  developed  based  upon  current  economic  and 
local market conditions, the Company cannot make any assurances about the predictive nature of these assumptions, including how 
customer preferences or competitor influences might change. 

Also, as market conditions vary from those assumed in the sensitivity analysis, actual results will also differ due to factors 
such as prepayment and refinancing levels likely deviating from those assumed, the varying impact of interest rate change, caps or 
floors on adjustable rate assets, the potential effect of changing debt service levels on customers with adjustable rate loans, depositor 
early withdrawals and product preference changes, and other internal and external variables. Furthermore, the sensitivity analysis does 
not reflect actions that ALCO might take in response to, or in anticipation of, changes in interest rates.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM 

Board of Directors and Stockholders 
Community Bankers Trust Corporation and Subsidiary 
Glen Allen, Virginia 

We  have  audited  the  accompanying  consolidated  balance  sheets  of  Community  Bankers  Trust Corporation  and 
subsidiary (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of income 
(loss), comprehensive income (loss), changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the 
period  ended  December 31,  2012.  These  consolidated  financial  statements  are  the  responsibility  of  the  Company’s 
management.  Our  responsibility  is  to  express  an  opinion  on  these  consolidated  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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about 
whether  the  financial  statements  are  free  of  material  misstatement.  An  audit  includes  examining,  on  a  test  basis, 
evidence  supporting  the  amounts  and  disclosures  in  the  financial  statements.  An  audit  also  includes  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 Community Bankers Trust Corporation and subsidiary as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the 
results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012 in 
conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. 

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United 
States),  the  Company’s  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  as  of  December 31,  2012,  based  on  criteria 
established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the 
Treadway Commission (the “COSO criteria”).  Our report dated March 26, 2013 expressed an unqualified opinion on 
the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM 

Board of Directors and Stockholders 
Community Bankers Trust Corporation and Subsidiary 
Glen Allen, Virginia 

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Community Bankers Trust Corporation and subsidiary 
(the “Company”) as of December 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework 
issued  by  the  Committee  of  Sponsoring  Organizations  of  the  Treadway  Commission  (the  “COSO  criteria”).  The 
Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its 
assessment  of  the  effectiveness  of  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  included  in  the  accompanying 
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the 
effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.  

We conducted our audit 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 
effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining 
an  understanding  of  internal  control  over  financial  reporting,  assessing  the  risk  that  a  material  weakness  exists, 
testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit 
also  included  performing  such  other  procedures  as  we  considered  necessary  in  the  circumstances.  We  believe  that 
our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.  

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding 
the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance 
with  accounting  principles  generally  accepted  in  the  United  States  of  America.  A  company’s  internal  control  over 
financial  reporting  includes  those  policies  and  procedures  that  (1) pertain  to  the  maintenance  of  records  that,  in 
reasonable  detail,  accurately  and  fairly  reflect  the  transactions  and  dispositions  of  the  assets  of  the  company; 
(2) provide  reasonable  assurance  that  transactions  are  recorded  as  necessary  to  permit  preparation  of  financial 
statements  in  accordance  with  accounting  principles  generally  accepted  in  the  United  States  of  America,  and  that 
receipts  and  expenditures  of  the  company  are  being  made  only  in  accordance  with  authorizations  of  management 
and  directors  of  the  company;  and  (3) provide  reasonable  assurance  regarding  prevention  or  timely  detection  of 
unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial 
statements.  

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.  

In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as 
of December 31, 2012, based on the COSO criteria. 

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United 
States), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 and the 
related consolidated statements of income (loss), comprehensive income (loss), changes in stockholders’ equity and 
cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012 and our report dated March 26, 2013 
expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 

Note 1. 

Nature of Banking Activities and Significant Accounting Policies  

Organization  

Community Bankers Trust Corporation (the “Company”) is a bank holding company that was incorporated under Delaware 
law  on  April 6,  2005.  The  Company  is  headquartered  in  Glen  Allen,  Virginia  and  is  the  holding  company  for  Essex  Bank  (the 
“Bank”),  a  Virginia  state  bank  with  24  full-service  offices  in  Virginia,  Maryland  and  Georgia.  The  Bank  also  operates  two  loan 
production offices in Virginia. 

The  Bank  engages  in  a  general  commercial  banking  business  and  provides  a  wide  range  of  financial  services  primarily  to 
individuals and small businesses, including individual and commercial demand and time deposit accounts, commercial and industrial 
loans, consumer and small business loans, real estate and mortgage loans, investment services, on-line and mobile banking products, 
and safe deposit box facilities. Thirteen offices are located in Virginia, from the Chesapeake Bay to just west of Richmond, seven are 
located in Maryland along the Baltimore-Washington corridor and four are located in the Atlanta, Georgia metropolitan market.  

Principles of Consolidation  

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the Bank, its wholly-owned 
subsidiary.  All  material  intercompany  balances  and  transactions  have  been  eliminated  in  consolidation.  FASB  ASC  810, 
Consolidation, requires that the Company no longer eliminate through consolidation the equity investment in BOE Statutory Trust I, 
which was $124,000 at December 31, 2012 and 2011. The subordinated debt of the Trust is reflected as a liability of the Company.  

Cash and Cash Equivalents  

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company has defined cash and cash equivalents as cash and 

due from banks, interest-bearing bank balances, and federal funds sold.  

Restricted Cash 

The Bank is required to maintain a reserve against its deposits in accordance with Regulation D of the Federal Reserve Act. 
For the final weekly reporting period, the aggregate amount of daily average required reserves was $9.6 million and $7.8 million for 
each of the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. 

 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. 

Purchase premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities. 
Declines  in  the  fair  value  of  held-to-maturity  and  available-for-sale  securities  below  their  cost  that  are  deemed  to  be  other  than 
temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses. In estimating other than temporary impairment losses, management considers 
(1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects 
of the issuer, and (3) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow 
for  any  anticipated  recovery  in  fair  value.  Gains  and  losses  on  the  sale  of  securities  are  recorded  on  the  settlement  date  and  are 
determined using the specific identification method.  

Restricted Securities  

The  Company  is  required  to  maintain  an  investment  in  the  capital  stock  of  certain  correspondent  banks.  The  Company’s 

investment in these securities is recorded at cost.

COMMUNITY BANKERS TRUST CORPORATION 

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) 

Loans Held for Sale  

Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or estimated market 
in the aggregate. Net unrealized losses are recognized through a valuation allowance by charges to income. Mortgage loans held for 
sale are sold with the mortgage servicing rights released by the Company.  

The  Company  enters  into  commitments  to  originate  certain  mortgage  loans  whereby  the  interest  rate  on  the  loans  is 
determined  prior  to  funding  (rate  lock  commitments).  Rate  lock  commitments  on  mortgage  loans  that  are  intended  to  be  sold  are 
considered to be derivatives. The period of time between issuance of a loan commitment and closing and the sale of the loan generally 
ranges from thirty to ninety days. The Company protects itself from changes in interest rates through the use of best efforts forward 
delivery  commitments,  whereby  the  Company  commits  to  sell  a  loan  at  the  time  the  borrower  commits  to  an  interest  rate  with  the 
intent that the buyer has assumed interest rate risk on the loan. As a result, the Company is not exposed to losses nor will it realize 
significant  gains  related  to  its  rate  lock  commitments  due  to  changes  in  interest  rates.  The  correlation  between  the  rate  lock 
commitments and the best efforts contracts is very high due to their similarity. Because of this high correlation, the gain or loss that 
occurs on the rate lock commitments is immaterial.  

Loans  

The  Bank  grants  mortgage,  commercial  and  consumer  loans  to  customers.  A  significant  portion  of  the  loan  portfolio  is 
represented by 1-4 family residential mortgage loans. The ability of the Bank’s debtors to honor their contracts is dependent upon the 
real estate and general economic conditions in the Bank’s market 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 adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, and any deferred fees or 
costs  on  originated  loans.  Interest  income  is  accrued  on  the  unpaid  principal  balance.  Loan  origination  fees,  net  of  certain  direct 
origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the related loan yield using the interest method.  

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 process of collection. Consumer loans are typically charged off no later than 180 days past due. In all 
cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual 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  nonaccrual  or  charged-off  is  reversed  against  interest 
income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. 
Loans are returned to accrual status when all of the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future 
payments are reasonably assured.  

Allowance for Loan Losses on Non-covered loans  

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 are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of a loan balance is 
confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.  

The  allowance  is  an  amount  that  management  believes  is  appropriate  to  absorb  estimated  losses  relating  to  specifically 
identified  loans,  as  well  as  probable  credit  losses  inherent  in  the  balance  of  the  loan  portfolio,  based  on  an  evaluation  of  the 
collectability of existing loans and prior loss experience. This evaluation also takes into consideration such factors as changes in the 
nature and volume of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, review of specific problem loans, and current economic conditions 
that  may  affect  the  borrower’s  ability  to  pay.  This  evaluation  does  not  include  the  effects  of  expected  losses  on  specific  loans  or 
groups  of  loans  that  are  related  to  future  events  or  expected  changes  in  economic  conditions.  While  management  uses  the  best 
information available to make its evaluation, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if there are significant changes in 
economic conditions. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Bank’s 
allowance for loan losses, and may require the Bank to make additions to the allowance based on their judgment about information 
available to them at the time of their examinations.  

The allowance consists of specific and general components. For 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 

58 

 
 
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
COMMUNITY BANKERS TRUST CORPORATION 

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) 

carrying value of that loan. The general component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for 
qualitative factors.  

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the 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 for commercial and construction loans by either the present value of the 
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.  

Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Bank does 

not separately identify individual consumer and residential loans for impairment disclosures.  

Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer  

FASB  ASC  310,  Receivables  requires  acquired  loans  to  be  recorded  at  fair  value  and  prohibits  carrying  over  valuation 
allowances in the initial accounting for acquired impaired loans. Loans carried at fair value, mortgage loans held for sale, and loans to 
borrowers in good standing under revolving credit arrangements are excluded from the scope of FASB ASC 310 which limits the yield 
that  may  be  accreted  to  the  excess  of  the  undiscounted  expected  cash  flows  over  the  investor’s  initial  investment  in  the  loan.  The 
excess of the contractual cash flows over expected cash flows may not be recognized as an adjustment of yield. Subsequent increases 
in cash flows to be collected are recognized prospectively through an adjustment of the loan’s yield over its remaining life. Decreases 
in expected cash flows are recognized as impairments through allowance for loan losses.  

The Company’s acquired loans from the Suburban Federal Savings Bank (SFSB) acquisition (the “covered loans”), subject to 
FASB  ASC  Topic  805,  Business  Combinations  (formerly  SFAS  141(R)),  are  recorded  at  fair  value  and  no  separate  valuation 
allowance was recorded at the date of acquisition. FASB ASC 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit 
Quality  (formerly  SOP  03-3),  applies  to  loans  acquired  in  a  transfer  with  evidence  of  deterioration  of  credit  quality  for  which  it  is 
probable,  at  acquisition,  that  the  investor  will  be  unable  to  collect  all  contractually  required  payments  receivable.  The  Company  is 
applying the provisions of FASB ASC 310-30 to all loans acquired in the SFSB acquisition. The Company has grouped loans together 
based on common risk characteristics including product type, delinquency status and loan documentation requirements among others.  

The covered loans acquired are subject to credit review standards described above for non-covered loans. If and when credit 
deterioration occurs subsequent to the acquisition date, a provision for credit loss for covered loans will be charged to earnings for the 
full amount without regard to the shared loss agreements. 

The  Company  has  made  an  estimate  of  the  total  cash  flows  it  expects  to  collect  from  each  pool  of  loans,  which  includes 
undiscounted  expected  principal  and  interest.  The  excess  of  that  amount  over  the  fair  value  of  the  pool  is  referred  to  as  accretable 
yield.  Accretable  yield  is  recognized  as  interest  income  on  a  constant  yield  basis  over  the  life  of  the  pool.  The  Company  also 
determines each pool’s contractual principal and contractual interest payments. The excess of that amount over the total cash flows it 
expects to collect from the pool is referred to as nonaccretable difference, which is not accreted into income. Judgmental prepayment 
assumptions are applied to both contractually required payments and cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition. Over the life 
of  the  loan  or  pool,  the  Company  continues  to  estimate  cash  flows  expected  to  be  collected.  Subsequent  decreases  in  cash  flows 
expected to be collected over the life of the pool are recognized as an impairment in the current period through allowance for loan 
loss. Subsequent increases in expected or actual cash flows are first used to reverse any existing valuation allowance for that loan or 
pool. Any remaining increase in cash flows expected to be collected is recognized as an adjustment to the accretable yield with the 
amount of periodic accretion adjusted over the remaining life of the pool.  

Bank Premises and Equipment  

Bank premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Land is carried at cost. Depreciation of bank 
premises and equipment is computed on the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of 10 to 50 years for premises and 3 to 
20 years for equipment, furniture and fixtures.

COMMUNITY BANKERS TRUST CORPORATION 

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) 

Costs of maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred and major improvements are capitalized. Upon sale or 
retirement of depreciable properties, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and the resulting 
gain or loss is included in the determination of income.  

Other Real Estate Owned  

Real estate acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure is held for sale and is initially recorded at the fair value at the date 
of  foreclosure  net  of  estimated  selling  costs,  establishing  a  new  cost  basis.  Subsequent  to  foreclosure,  valuations  are  periodically 
performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell. Revenues 
and  expenses  from  operations  and  changes  in  the  valuation  allowance  are  included  in  other  operating  expenses.  Costs  to  bring  a 
property to salable condition are capitalized up to the fair value of the property while costs to maintain a property in salable condition 
are expensed as incurred. The Company had $10.8 million and $10.3 million in other real estate, non-covered at December 31, 2012 
and 2011, respectively, and $3.4 million and $5.8 million in other real estate, covered at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.  

Goodwill and Other Intangibles  

FASB  ASC  805,  Business  Combinations,  requires  that  the  purchase  method  of  accounting  be  used  for  all  business 
combinations  after  June 30,  2001.  With  purchase  acquisitions,  the  Company  is  required  to  record  assets  acquired,  including  any 
intangible assets, and liabilities assumed at  fair value, which involves relying on estimates based on third party valuations, such as 
appraisals, or internal valuations based on discounted cash flow analysis or other valuation methods. The Company records goodwill 
per FASB ASC 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Others. Accordingly, goodwill is no longer subject to amortization over its estimated 
useful  life,  but  is  subject  to  at  least  an  annual  assessment  for  impairment  by  applying  a  fair  value-based  test.  Additionally,  under 
FASB ASC 350, acquired intangible assets (such as core deposit intangibles) are separately recognized if the benefit of the assets can 
be  sold,  transferred,  licensed,  rented,  or  exchanged,  and  amortized  over  their  useful  lives.  FASB  ASC  350  discontinues  any 
amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives, but requires an impairment review at least annually or more 
often  if  certain  conditions  exist.  The  Company  followed  FASB  ASC  350  and  determined  that  any  core  deposit  intangibles  will  be 
amortized over the estimated useful life.  Core deposit intangibles are evaluated for impairment in accordance with FASB ASC 350. 

Advertising Costs  

The Company follows the policy of expensing advertising costs as incurred, which totaled $336,000, $329,000, and $345,000 

for 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively.  

Income Taxes  

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the 
net deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the tax effects of the temporary differences 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.  

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  sheet  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 
statement of income. Under FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes, a valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that 
some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. In management’s opinion, based on a three year taxable income projection, 
tax strategies which would result in potential securities gains and the effects of off-setting deferred tax liabilities, it is more likely than 
not  that  the  deferred  tax  assets  are  realizable.  Included  in  deferred  tax  assets  are  the  tax  benefits  derived  from  net  operating  loss 
carryforwards totaling $7.8 million. Management expects to utilize all of these carryforward amounts prior to expiration.

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U. S. federal income tax as well as various state income taxes. Years 2012 

through 2009 are open to examination by the respective tax authorities.  

Earnings Per Share  

Basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding and excludes any 
dilutive effects of options, warrants and convertible securities. Diluted EPS is computed in a manner similar to basic EPS, except for 
certain adjustments to the numerator and the denominator. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares that were 
outstanding at the end of the period. 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.  The  Company  declared  and  paid  $2.2  million,  $0,  and 
$442,000  in dividends on preferred stock in 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively.  

Stock-Based Compensation  

In  April  2009,  the  Company  adopted  the  Community  Bankers  Trust  Corporation  2009  Stock  Incentive  Plan  which  is 

authorized to issue up to 2,650,000 shares of common stock. See Note 13 for details regarding these plans.  

Recent Accounting Pronouncements  

In  June  2012,  the  FASB  issued  ASU  2012-06,  Business  Combinations  (Topic  805):  Subsequent  Accounting  for  an 
Indemnification Asset Recognized at the Acquisition Date as a Result of a Government-Assisted Acquisition of a Financial Institution. 
The objective of this ASU is to address the diversity in practice about how to interpret the terms on the same basis and contractual 
limitations  when  subsequently  measuring  an  indemnification  asset  recognized  in  a  government-assisted  (Federal  Deposit  Insurance 
Corporation  or  National  Credit  Union  Administration)  acquisition  of  a  financial  institution  that  includes  a  loss-sharing  agreement 
(indemnification agreement). 

When  a  reporting  entity  recognizes  an  indemnification  asset  (in  accordance  with  Subtopic  805-20)  as  a  result  of  a 
government-assisted acquisition of a financial institution and subsequently a change in the cash flows expected to be collected on the 
indemnification asset occurs (as a result of a change in cash flows expected to be collected on the assets subject to indemnification), 
the reporting entity should subsequently account for the change in the measurement of the indemnification asset on the same basis as 
the change in the assets subject to indemnification. Any amortization of changes in value should be limited to the contractual term of 
the indemnification agreement (i.e., the lesser of the term of the indemnification agreement and the remaining life of the indemnified 
assets).  The  amendments  are  effective  for  fiscal  years,  and  interim  periods within  those  years, beginning on  or  after  December 15, 
2012.   Early adoption is permitted.  The Company’s accounting policy for its indemnification asset conforms to the guidance above; 
therefore, no changes are necessary for adoption.   

In February 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): 
Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, to improve the transparency of reporting these 
reclassifications. Other comprehensive income includes gains and losses that are initially excluded from net income for an accounting 
period.  Those  gains  and  losses  are  later  reclassified  out  of  accumulated  other  comprehensive  income  into  net  income.  The 
amendments in this ASU do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in financial 
statements.  All  of  the  information  that  this  ASU  requires  is  already  required  to  be  disclosed  elsewhere  in  the  financial  statements 
under U.S. GAAP.  The new amendments will require an organization to: 

•  Present (either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes) the effects on the line items of 
net  income  of  significant  amounts  reclassified  out  of  accumulated  other  comprehensive  income  -  but  only  if  the  item 
reclassified is required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period.  

• 

Cross-reference to other disclosures currently required under U.S. GAAP for other reclassification items, which are not 
required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified directly to net income in their entirety in the same reporting period.  

The  amendments  apply  to  all  public  and  private  companies  that  report  items  of  other  comprehensive  income.  Public 
companies  are  required  to  comply  with  these  amendments  for  all  reporting  periods  (interim  and  annual).  The  amendments  are 
effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012.  Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the 
adoption of the deferred items to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) 

Use of Estimates  

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of 
America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date 
of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ 
from  those  estimates.  Management  estimates  that  are  particularly  susceptible  to  significant  change  in  the  near  term  relate  to  the 
determination  of  the  allowance  for  loan  losses,  the  valuation  of  other  real  estate  owned,  projected  cash  flows  relating  to  certain 
acquired loans, the value of the indemnification asset, and the valuation of deferred tax assets.  

Reclassifications  

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period balances to conform to the current year presentations.

Proceeds from sales of securities available for sale were $149.9 million, $216.8 million and $113.1 million during the years 
ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  Gains and losses on the sale of securities are recorded on the settlement date 
and  are  determined  using  the  specific  identification  method.  Gross  realized  gains  and  losses  on  sales  and  other  than  temporary 
impairments  (“OTTI”)  of  securities  available  for  sale  during  the  years  ended  December  31,  2012,  2011  and  2010  were  as  follows

In estimating OTTI losses, management considers the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than 
cost, the financial condition and short-term prospects for the issuer, and the intent and ability of management to hold its investment for 
a period of time to allow a recovery in fair value. At September 30, 2010, financial institution securities held at the time were deemed 
to have impairment losses that were other than temporary in nature in the amount of $459,000, as management did not intend to hold 
them until they recovered their value. There were no investments held that had impairment losses that were other than temporary in 
nature for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010. 

The fair value and gross unrealized losses for securities segregated by the length of time that individual securities have been

The unrealized losses (impairments) in the investment portfolio as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 are generally a result of 
market fluctuations that occur daily. At December 31, 2012, the unrealized losses are from 61 securities.  Of those, 59 are investment 
grade, and are backed by insurance, U.S. government agency guarantees, or the full faith and credit of local municipalities throughout 
the United States. Investment grade corporate obligations comprise the remaining two securities with unrealized losses at December 
31, 2012.  The Company considers the reason for impairment, length of impairment and ability to hold until the full value is recovered 
in determining if the impairment is temporary in nature.  Based on this analysis, the Company has determined these impairments to be 
temporary in nature. The Company does not intend to sell and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell 
these securities until they recover in value.  

Market  prices  are  affected  by  conditions  beyond  the  control  of  the  Company.  Investment  decisions  are  made  by  the 
management  group  of  the  Company  and  reflect  the  overall  liquidity  and  strategic  asset/liability  objectives  of  the  Company. 
Management  analyzes  the  securities  portfolio  frequently  and  manages  the  portfolio  to  provide  an  overall  positive  impact  to  the 
Company’s financial statements. 

Securities with amortized costs of $111.7 million and $34.1 million as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, were 
pledged to secure public deposits and for other purposes required or permitted by law. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, there were no 
securities purchased from a single issuer, other than U.S. Treasury issue and other U.S. Government agencies, that comprised more 
than 10% of the consolidated shareholders’ equity.

The  Company  held  $40.9  million  and  $36.5  million  in  purchased  government-guaranteed  loans  of  the  United  States 
Department of Agriculture (USDA) at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, which are included in various categories in the table 
above.    As  these  loans  are  100%  guaranteed  by  the  USDA,  no  loan  loss  provision  is  required.    These  loan  balances  include  an 
unamortized  purchase  premium  of  $3.4  million  and  $3.6  million,  at  December  31,  2012  and  2011,  respectively.    The  Company  is 
amortizing this premium in accordance with ASC 310-20, Receivables, Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs as a yield adjustment 
over the expected life of the loans adjusted for estimated prepayments.   

At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company’s allowance for credit losses is comprised of the following: (i) any specific 
valuation  allowances  calculated  in  accordance  with  FASB  ASC  310,  Receivables,  (ii) general  valuation  allowances  calculated  in 
accordance with FASB ASC 450, Contingencies, based on economic conditions and other qualitative risk factors, and (iii) historical 
valuation  allowances  calculated  using  historical  loan  loss  experience.  Management  identified  loans  subject  to  impairment  in 
accordance with FASB ASC 310.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) 

At December 31, 2012 and 2011, a portion of the construction and land development loans presented above contained interest 
reserve  provisions.      The  Company  follows  standard  industry  practice  to  include  interest  reserves  and  capitalized  interest  in  a 
construction loan.  This practice recognizes interest as an additional cost of the project and, as a result, requires the borrower to put 
additional  equity  into  the  project.  In  order  to  monitor  the  project  throughout  its  life  to  make  sure  the  property  is  moving  along  as 
planned to ensure appropriateness of continuing to capitalize interest, the Company coordinates an independent property inspection in 
connection with each disbursement of loan funds.  Until completion, there is generally no cash flow from which to make the interest 
payment.  The Company does not advance additional interest reserves to keep a loan from becoming nonperforming.   

There  were  no  significant  amounts  of  interest  reserves  recognized  as  interest  income  on  construction  loans  with  interest 
reserves for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Nonperforming construction loans with interest reserves were 
$4.1 million and $4.8 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. 

Interest income on nonaccrual loans, if recognized, is recorded using the cash basis method of accounting.  There were no 
significant amounts of cash basis income recognized during the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010. For the years ended 
December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, estimated interest income of $1.3 million, $1.8 million and $2.9 million, respectively, would have 
been recorded if all such loans had been accruing interest according to their original contractual terms.

(1)  The category “Individually Evaluated for Impairment” includes loans individually evaluated for impairment and determined 
not to be impaired.  These loans totaled $19.0 million and $19.6 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.  The allowance 
for loans losses allocated to these loans was $714,000 and $1.4 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.  

  Non-covered  loans  are  monitored  for  credit  quality  on  a  recurring  basis.    These  credit  quality  indicators  are  defined  as 

follows: 

Pass -  A pass loan is not adversely classified, as it does not display any of the characteristics for adverse classification. This category 
includes purchased loans that are 100% guaranteed by U.S. Government agencies of $40.9 million and $36.5 million at December 31, 
2012 and 2011, respectively.  

Special Mention -  A special mention loan has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention.  If left uncorrected, 
such potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects or collateral position at some future date.  Special 
mention loans are not adversely classified and do not warrant adverse classification.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) 

Substandard -    A  substandard  loan  is  inadequately  protected  by  the  current  net  worth and paying  capacity  of  the obligor or of  the 
collateral pledged, if any.  Loans classified as substandard generally have a well defined weakness, or weaknesses, that jeopardize the 
liquidation of the debt.   These loans are characterized by the distinct possibility of loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.   

Doubtful -  A doubtful loan has all the weaknesses inherent in a loan classified as substandard with the added characteristics that the 
weaknesses  make  collection  or  liquidation  in  full  highly  questionable  and  improbable,  on  the  basis  of  currently  existing  facts, 
conditions, and values.

In  accordance  with  ASU  2011-02,  the  Company  assesses  all  loan  modifications  to  determine  whether  they  are  considered 
troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) under the guidance.  During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Bank modified six loans that 
were considered to be TDRs.  The Company extended the terms for four of these loans and the interest rate was lowered for five of 
these loans.  These restructures included payments of $202,000 for one of these loans and no charge-offs for any loans.  The following 
table presents information relating to loans modified as TDRs during the year ended December 31, 2012 (dollars in thousands):

            At December 31, 2012, the Company had 1-4 family mortgages in the amount of $150.3 million pledged as collateral to the 
FHLB for a total borrowing capacity of $99.3 million. 

Note 4.  

Loans Covered by FDIC Shared Loss Agreements (Covered Loans)  

On January 30, 2009, the Company entered into a Purchase and Assumption Agreement with the Federal Deposit Insurance 
Corporation (FDIC) to assume all of the deposits and certain other liabilities and acquire substantially all assets of Suburban Federal 
Savings  Bank  (SFSB).  The  Company  is  applying  the  provisions  of  FASB  ASC  310-30,  Loans  and  Debt  Securities  Acquired  with 
Deteriorated Credit Quality, to all loans acquired in the SFSB acquisition (the “covered loans”).  Of the total $198.3 million in loans 
acquired, $49.1 million met the criteria of FASB ASC 310-30.   These loans, consisting mainly of construction loans, were deemed 
impaired at the acquisition date.  The remaining $149.1 million of loans acquired, comprised  mainly of residential 1-4 family, was 
analogized to meet the criteria of FASB ASC 310-30.  Analysis of this portfolio revealed that SFSB utilized weak underwriting and 
documentation standards, which led the Company to believe that significant losses were probable given the economic environment at 
that time.   

As of December 31,  2012  and 2011,  the  outstanding balance of  the  covered  loans  was  $137.2  million  and $160.0 million, 

respectively. The carrying amount as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 is as follows (dollars in thousands):

  The covered loans were not classified as nonperforming assets at December 31, 2012 and 2011 as the loans are accounted for 
on a pooled basis, and interest income, through accretion of the difference between the carrying amount of the loans and the expected 
cash flows, is being recognized on all purchased loans.

FDIC Agreements and FDIC Indemnification Asset  

On January 30, 2009, the Company entered into a Purchase and Assumption Agreement with the FDIC to assume all of the 
deposits and certain other liabilities and acquire substantially all assets of SFSB. Under the shared loss agreements that are part of that 
agreement, the FDIC will reimburse the Bank for 80% of losses arising from covered loans and foreclosed real estate assets, on the 
first  $118  million  in  losses  on  such  covered  loans  and  foreclosed  real  estate  assets,  and  for  95%  of  losses  on  covered  loans  and 
foreclosed real estate assets thereafter. Under the shared loss agreements, a “loss” on a covered loan or foreclosed real estate is defined 
generally  as  a  realized  loss  incurred  through  a  permitted  disposition,  foreclosure,  short-sale  or  restructuring  of  the  covered  loan  or 
foreclosed real estate. The reimbursements for losses on single family one-to-four residential mortgage assets are to be made quarterly 
through January 2019, and the reimbursements for losses on other covered assets are to be made quarterly through January 2014. Prior 
to the third quarter of 2011, reimbursements for losses on single family one-to-four mortgage assets were made monthly. The shared 
loss agreements provide for indemnification from the first dollar of losses without any threshold requirement. The reimbursable losses 
from the FDIC are based on the book value of the relevant loan as determined by the FDIC at the date of the transaction, January 30, 
2009. New loans made after that date are not covered by the shared loss agreements. The fair value of the loss sharing agreements is 
detailed below.  

The  Company  is  accounting for  the  shared loss  agreements  as  an  indemnification asset  pursuant  to  the  guidance  in FASB 
ASC  805,  Business  Combinations.  The  FDIC  indemnification  asset  is  required  to  be  measured  in  the  same  manner  as  the  asset  or 
liability to which it relates. The FDIC indemnification asset is measured separately from the covered loans and other real estate owned 
assets  (OREO)  because  it  is  not  contractually  embedded  in  the  covered  loan  and  OREO  assets,  and  is  not  transferable  should  the 
Company choose to dispose of them. Fair value was estimated using projected cash flows available for loss sharing based on the credit 
adjustments  estimated  for  each  loan  pool  and  other  real  estate  owned  and  the  loss  sharing  percentages  outlined  in  the  shared  loss 
agreements. These cash flows were discounted to reflect the uncertainty of the timing and receipt of the loss sharing reimbursement 
from the FDIC.  

Because  the  acquired  loans  are  subject  to  shared  loss  agreements  and  a  corresponding  indemnification  asset  exists  to 
represent  the  value  of  expected  payments  from  the  FDIC,  increases  and  decreases  in  loan  accretable  yield  due  to  changing  loss 
expectations  will  also  have  an  impact  to  the  valuation  of  the  FDIC  indemnification  asset.  Improvement  in  loss  expectations  will 
typically increase loan accretable yield and decrease the value of the FDIC indemnification asset, and in some instances, result in an 
amortizable premium on the FDIC indemnification asset. Increases in loss expectations will typically be recognized as impairment in 
the current period through allowance for loan losses, resulting in additional noninterest income for the amount of the increase in the 
FDIC indemnification asset.  

In  addition  to  the  premium  amortization,  the  balance  of  the  FDIC  indemnification  asset  is  affected  by  expected  payments 
from the FDIC.  Under the terms of the shared loss agreements, the FDIC will reimburse the Company for loss events incurred related 
to  the  covered  loan  portfolio.    These  events  include  such  things  as  future  writedowns  due  to  decreases  in  the  fair  market  value  of 
OREO, net loan charge-offs and recoveries, and net gains and losses on OREO sales.    

As  discussed  above,  the  shared  loss  agreement  for  assets  other  than  single  family  one-to-four  mortgages  expires  January 
2014.    The  portion  of  the  FDIC  indemnification  asset  related  to  those  assets  was  $1.4  million  at  December  31,  2012,  of  which 
$727,000 represents estimated losses to be reimbursed by the FDIC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) 

Depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 amounted to $1.7 million, $1.8 million, and $2.0 

million, respectively.   

Note 7.  

Goodwill and Other Intangibles  

The Company follows FASB ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, which prescribes the accounting for goodwill and 
intangible  assets  subsequent  to  initial  recognition.  Provisions  within  FASB  ASC 350 discontinue  any  amortization  of  goodwill  and 
intangible assets with indefinite lives, and require at least an annual impairment review, or more often if certain impairment conditions 
exist.  With  the  Transcommunity  Financial  Corporation  (TFC)  and  BOE  Financial  Services  of  Virginia,  Inc.  (BOE)  mergers 
consummated May 31, 2008, there were significant amounts of goodwill and other intangible assets recorded. Goodwill was initially 
assessed for potential impairment as of May 31, 2009, the anniversary date of the mergers, and again in December 2009, in order to 
coincide  the  assessment  with  the  Company’s  fiscal  year  end,  resulting  in  impairment  charges  totaling  $31.9  million.  Economic 
conditions,  evidenced  by  the  significant  loan  loss  provision  taken  during  the  second  quarter  of  2010,  warranted  an  impairment 
evaluation of goodwill that resulted in $5.7 million in impairment charges for the year ended December 31, 2010, which brought the 
balance of goodwill to zero. 

Core deposit intangible assets are amortized over the period of expected benefit, ranging from 2.6 to 9 years. Core deposit 
intangibles are recognized, amortized and evaluated for impairment as required by FASB ASC 350.  Due to the mergers with TFC and 
BOE on May 31, 2008, the Company recorded $15.0 million in core deposit intangible assets. Core deposit intangibles related to the 
Georgia  and  Maryland  transactions  equaled  $3.2 million  and  $2.1 million,  respectively,  and  will  be  amortized  over  approximately 
nine years.   The Company estimates it will recognize $2.3 million of amortization expense for each of the next five years.

  The  Company  has  analyzed  the  tax  positions  taken  or  expected  to  be  taken  in  its  tax  returns  and  concluded  that  it  has  no 

liability related to uncertain tax positions in accordance with FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes.  

The  Company  has  evaluated  the  need  for  a  deferred  tax  valuation  allowance  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2012  in 
accordance with FASB ASC 740. Based on a three year  income projection of taxable income and tax strategies which would result in 
potential securities gains and the effects of off-setting deferred tax liabilities, the Company believes that it is more likely than not that 
the deferred tax assets are realizable. Therefore, no allowance is required.  Years 2012 through 2009 are subject to audit by taxing 
authorities. As of December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, the Company had $7.8 million, $11.1 million, and $10.1 million, respectively, 
of net operating loss carryforwards which expire in 2021 through 2026.

Employee Benefit Plans  

The Company adopted the Bank of Essex noncontributory, defined benefit pension plan for all full-time pre-merger Bank of 
Essex  employees  over  21 years  of  age.  Benefits  are  generally  based  upon  years  of  service  and  the  employees’  compensation.  The 
Company funds pension costs in accordance with the funding provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act.  

The  Company  has  frozen  the  plan  benefits  for  all  the  Defined  Benefit  Plan  participants  effective  December  31,  2010, 

resulting in a curtailment gain included in pension expense of $210,000 in 2010.

for  the  major  asset  classes  held  or  anticipated  to  be  held  by  the  trust,  and  for  the  trust  itself.  Undue  weight  is  not  given  to  recent 
experience that may not continue over the measurement period, with higher significance placed on current forecasts of future long-
term economic conditions.  

Because assets are held in a qualified trust, anticipated returns are not reduced for taxes. Further, solely for this purpose, the 
plan is assumed to continue in force and not terminate during the period during which assets are invested. However, consideration is 
given  to  the  potential  impact  of  current  and  future  investment  policy,  cash  flow  into  and  out  of  the  trust,  and  expenses  (both 
investment  and  non-investment)  typically  paid  from  plan  assets  (to  the  extent  such  expenses  are  not  explicitly  estimated  within 
periodic cost).  

Asset Allocation  

The pension plan’s weighted-average asset allocations as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 by asset category are as follows:  

Asset Category 
Mutual funds — fixed income 
Mutual funds — equity 
Cash and equivalents

The fair value of plan assets is measured based on the fair value hierarchy as discussed in Note 21, “Fair Values of Assets 
and Liabilities”, to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The valuations are based on third party data received as of the balance sheet 
date. All plan assets are considered Level 1 assets, as quoted prices exist in active markets for identical assets.

The trust fund is sufficiently diversified to maintain a reasonable level of risk without imprudently sacrificing return, with a 
targeted  asset  allocation  of  40%  fixed  income  and  60%  equities.  The  investment  manager  selects  investment  fund  managers  with 
demonstrated  experience  and  expertise,  and  funds  with  demonstrated  historical  performance,  for  the  implementation  of  the  plan’s 
investment  strategy.  The  investment  manager  will  consider  both  actively  and  passively  managed  investment  strategies  and  will 
allocate funds across the asset classes to develop an efficient investment structure.  

It is the responsibility of the trustee to administer the investments of the trust within reasonable costs, being careful to avoid 
sacrificing quality. These costs include, but are not limited to, management and custodial fees, consulting fees, transaction costs and 
other administrative costs chargeable to the trust.

401(k) Plan  

The Company adopted the 401(k) plans that previously existed with both TFC and BOE prior to the merger. Under the BOE 
401(k) Plan, employees had a contributory 401(k) profit sharing plan which covered substantially all employees. The employee could 
contribute up to 100% of compensation, subject to statutory limitations. The Company matched 50% of employee contributions up to 
4% of compensation. The plan also provided for an additional discretionary contribution to be made by the Company as determined 
each  year.  Any  employees  that  started  with  the  Company  after  the  merger,  and  met  the  service  requirements,  were  included  in  the 
BOE 401(k) Plan.  

Under  the  TFC  401(k)  Plan,  employees  had  a  contributory  401(k)  profit  share  plan  which  covered  substantially  all 
employees.  The  employee  could  contribute  up  to  100%  of  compensation,  subject  to  statutory  limitations.  The  Company  matched 
100% of employee contributions on the first 3% of compensation, then the Company matched 50% of employee contributions on the 
next 2% of compensation. The plan also provided for additional discretionary contributions to be made by the Company as determined 
each year.  

The Company combined the BOE 401(k) plan and the TFC 401(k) plan into the Essex Bank 401(k) plan effective October 1, 
2010. The employee may contribute up to 100% of compensation, subject to statutory limitations. The Company  matches 100% of 
employee contributions on the first 3% of compensation, then the Company matches 50% of employee contributions on the next 2% 
of compensation. 

The amounts charged to expense under these plans for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 were $473,000, 

$332,000, and $489,000, respectively.  

Deferred Compensation Agreements  

The Company has deferred compensation agreements with certain key employees and the Board of Directors. The retirement 
benefits  to  be  provided  are  fixed  based  upon  the  amount  of  compensation  earned  and  deferred.  Deferred  compensation  expense 
amounted  to  $99,000,  $107,000,  and  $197,000  for  the  years  ended  December 31,  2012,  2011  and  2010,  respectively.  The  expense 
associated with these agreements is offset by increased cash surrender value of life insurance policies on the individuals.  

Note 13.  

Stock Option Plans  

2009 Stock Option Plan 

In  2009,  the  Company  adopted  the  Community  Bankers  Trust  Corporation  2009  Stock  Incentive  Plan  (the  Plan).    The 
purpose of the Plan is to further the long-term stability and financial success of the Company by attracting and retaining employees 
and directors through the use of stock incentives and other rights that promote and recognize the financial success and growth of the 
Company.    The  Company  believes  that  ownership  of  company  stock  will  stimulate  the  efforts  of  such  employees  and  directors  by 
further aligning their interests with the interest of the Company’s stockholders.  The Plan is to be used to grant restricted stock awards, 
stock options in the form of incentive stock options and nonstatutory stock options, stock appreciation rights and other stock-based 
awards to employees and directors of the Company for up to 2,650,000 shares of common stock. No more than 1,500,000 shares may

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) 

be issued in connection with the exercise of incentive stock options.  Annual grants of stock options are limited to 500,000 shares for 
each participant.  

   The exercise price of an incentive stock option cannot be less than 100% of the fair market value of such shares on the date of 
grant, provided that if the participant owns, directly or indirectly, stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power 
of all classes of stock of the Company, the exercise price of an incentive stock option shall not be less than 110% of the fair market 
value of such shares on the date of grant. The exercise price of nonstatutory stock option awards cannot be less than 100% of the fair 
market value of such shares on the date of grant. The option exercise price may be paid in cash or with shares of common stock, or a 
combination of cash and common stock, if permitted under the participant’s option agreement. The Plan will expire on June 17, 2019, 
unless terminated sooner by the Board of Directors. 

The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the “Black Scholes Option Pricing” method with 

the following assumptions for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010:  

Expected volatility 
Expected dividend      
Expected term (years) 
Risk free rate 

2012 
50.0% 
2.0% - 3.0% 
6.25% 
0.77% - 1.31% 

2011 
50.0%   

3.0%       

  5.50% 
1.12%   

2010 
50.0% 
10.0% 
6.25% 
2.55% 

The expected volatility is an estimate of the volatility of the Company’s share price based on historical performance. The risk 
free interest rates for periods within the contractual life of the awards are based on the U. S. Treasury Zero Coupon implied yield at 
the  time  of  the  grant  correlating  to  the  expected  term.  The  expected  term  is  based  on  the  simplified  method  as  provided  by  the 
Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No 110 (SAB 110).  In accordance with SAB 110, the Company has 
chosen  to  use  the  simplified  method,  as  this  is  the  first  plan  issued  by  the  Company  as  Community  Bankers  Trust  Corporation; 
therefore,  no  historical  exercise  data  exists.    The  dividend  yield  assumption  is  based  on  the  Company’s  history  and  expectation  of 
dividend payouts over the life of the options at the time of the grant.   

The Company plans to issue new shares of common stock when options are exercised.  

In May 2010, the Company granted 205,000 options and 15,000 shares of restricted stock to employees, both of which vest 
ratably over the requisite service period of four years.  In October 2011, the Company granted 50,000 employee options which vested 
100% on December 31, 2011.  In January 2012 and July 2012, the company granted a total of 270,000 options to employees which 
vest ratably over the requisite service period of four years. 

The May 2010 grant of 15,000 restricted shares of common stock was to a senior executive in accordance with the minimum 
rules  for  long-term  equity  grants  for  companies  participating  in  the  Department  of  the  Treasury’s  TARP  Capital  Purchase 
Program.  These  rules  require  that  for  each  25%  of  total  financial  assistance  repaid,  25%  of  the  total  restricted  stock  may  become 
transferrable.  The total compensation expense associated with this grant was $42,000 and is being initially amortized over a four year 
period.    The  Company  recorded  $10,000  in  each  of  the  years  ended  2012  and  2011,  and  $6,000  in  2010  related  to  this  equity 
grant.  See Note 27 for further information related to the Company’s participation in the TARP Capital Purchase Program. 

The Company had three equity grants during the year ended December 31, 2011 to non-employee directors.  On February 1, 
2011, 39,972 shares were issued with a fair market value of $1.23 per share.  On March 11, 2011, 4,082 shares were issued with a fair 
market value of $1.33 per share and, on June 1, 2011, 115,040 shares were issued with a fair market value of $1.13 per share.  The fair 
market value of these grants was the closing price of the Company’s stock at the grant date.   

The  Company  had  three  equity  grants  during  the  year  ended  December  31,  2012  to  non-employee  directors.    On  June  1, 
2012, 15,925 shares were issued with a fair market value of $2.04 per share. On September 4, 2012, 13,477 shares were issued with a 
fair market value of $2.41 per share and, on December 3, 2012, 13,260 shares were issued with a fair market value of $2.45 per share.  
The fair market value of these grants was the closing price of the Company’s stock at the grant date.

December  31,  2012,  2011  and  2010,  respectively.  The  aggregate  intrinsic  value  of  a  stock  option  in  the  table  above  represents  the 
aggregate pre-tax intrinsic value (the amount by which the current market value of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price of 
the option) that would have been received by option holders had all option holders exercised their options on December 31, 2012. This 
amount changes with changes in the market value of the Company’s stock.  

The  Company  recorded  total  stock-based  compensation  expense  of  $156,000,  $227,000  and  $18,000  for  the  years  ended

The unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested options and restricted stock was $146,000 at December 31, 
2012 and is expected to be ratably expensed through May 2014.  The total fair market value of shares vested during the years ended 
December 31, 2012 and 2011 was $113,000 and $35,000, respectively.   No shares vested during December 31, 2010.   

TFC and BOE Stock Option Plans 

Prior to the mergers, both TFC and BOE maintained stock option plans as incentives for certain officers and directors. During 
2007, TFC replaced its stock option plan with an equity compensation plan that issued restricted stock awards. Under the terms of 
these plans, all options and awards were fully vested and exercisable, and any unrecognized compensation expenses were accelerated. 
Due to the mergers on May 31, 2008, these plans were terminated and the Company issued replacement options amounting to 332,351 
and 161,426 to former employees of TFC and BOE, which represented exchange rates of 1.42 and 5.7278, respectively.  

The options were valued at $1.488 million using the Black-Scholes model at the time of acquisition of TFC and BOE by the 
Company. The options were considered part of the acquisition price and, therefore, were not expensed by the Company. Assumptions 
were for a discount rate of 4.06% and 25% volatility with a remaining term of 4.83 years for TFC options and 5.25 years for BOE 
options.  

A summary of the options outstanding for the year ended December 31, 2012 is shown in the following table:

Earnings Per Common Share  

  Basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income or loss available to common stockholders by the 
weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed using the weighted average number of 
common  shares  outstanding  during  the  period,  including  the  effect  of  all  potentially  dilutive  potential  common  shares  outstanding 
attributable to stock instruments (dollars and shares in thousands, except per share data).

Excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share were approximately 1.3 million, 1.2 million, and 5.8 million of 

awards, options or warrants during 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, because their inclusion would be antidilutive.

Related Party Transactions  

In the ordinary course of business, the Bank has and expects to continue to have transactions, including borrowings, with its 
executive officers, directors, and their affiliates. All such loans are made on substantially the same terms as  those prevailing at the 
time for comparable loans to unrelated persons.

Note 16.   Commitments and Contingent Liabilities  

In the normal  course of business, there are outstanding various commitments and contingent liabilities, such as guarantees 
and commitments to extend credit, which are not reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Bank does not 
anticipate losses as a result of these transactions. See Note 19 with respect to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk.  

In February 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors approved two transaction-based bonus awards to the officer who was 
the  Company’s  then  chief  strategic  officer.  The  approval  of  the  bonus  awards  was  made  pursuant  to  a  provision  in  the  officer’s 
employment  agreement  that  provides  for  a  cash  bonus  payment  for  financial  advisory and other  services  that  the  officer renders in 
connection with the negotiation and consummation of a merger or other business combination involving the Company or any of its 
affiliates or the acquisition by the Company or any of its affiliates of a substantial portion of the assets or deposits of another financial 
institution. The bonus awards related to the officer’s financial advisory and other services with respect to the Bank’s acquisition of 
certain  assets  and  assumption  of  all  deposit  liabilities  of  four  former  branch  offices  of  The  Community  Bank  of  Loganville  on 
November 21, 2008 and the Bank’s acquisition of certain assets and assumption of all deposit liabilities of seven former branch offices 
of SFSB on January 30, 2009. The amounts of the bonus awards are (i) $1,169,445, calculated as 0.50% of the total amount of non-
brokered  deposits  that  the  Bank  assumed  in  the  November  2008  transaction  and  (ii)  $1,816,430,  calculated  as  0.50%  of  the  total 
amount  of  loans  and  other  assets  that  the  Bank  acquired  in  the  January  2009  transaction.  The  Company  believes  that  these  bonus 
awards are permitted under the rules and regulations of the TARP Capital Purchase Program. In accordance with generally accepted 
accounting  principles,  the  Company  has  reflected  these  bonus  awards  in  the  financial  statements  for  the  year  ended  December  31, 
2009. The Company made payment of the entire amount of these bonus awards to the individual in six equal installments during a 
period from February 12, 2010 to June 30, 2010. 

  During the first two quarters of 2010, the Company discussed with the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond and the Virginia 
Bureau of Financial Institutions certain issues with respect to the payment of these bonus awards. These issues include the compliance 
of the terms and structure of the bonus awards with Federal Reserve System Regulation W and the rules and regulations of the TARP 
Capital Purchase Program.  The Company has worked diligently to resolve these issues, but, as of March 26, 2013, these issues remain 
open with its regulators. The Company cannot make any assurances as to the amount of these bonus awards, if any,that will ultimately 
be permissible following the resolution of these issues. In addition, the Company cannot make any assurances as to any penalties that 
the regulatory agencies may assess if the Company is determined to have violated any of the rules and regulations described above. 
Such penalties may include, with respect to any Federal Reserve violations, formal or informal action directing the Company to make 
immediate corrections, civil penalties if it is determined that the violation was caused with intent, undertaken with reckless disregard 
for the Company’s financial safety and soundness, or results in gain to the Company. In addition, such penalties may include, with 
respect  to  any  TARP  violations,  civil  and  criminal  penalties  and  restitution  of  payments  paid  by  the  Company  to  the  officer.   The 
Company is unable to make an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss that it may incur as a result of these issues. 

Note 17.   Dividend Limitations on Affiliate Bank  

Transfers of funds from the banking subsidiary to the parent corporation in the form of loans, advances and cash dividends 
are  restricted  by  federal  and  state  regulatory  authorities.  As  of  December 31,  2012  and  2011,  the  aggregate  amount  of  unrestricted 
funds  that  could  be  transferred  from  the  banking  subsidiary  to  the  parent  corporation,  without  prior  regulatory  approval,  totaled 
$787,000 for 2012 and zero for 2011.  From January 1, 2012 until December 5, 2012, and for each of the years ended December 31, 
2011 and 2010, the Bank was not permitted to make dividend payments to the holding company without prior regulatory approval, as 
required by the formal written agreement that the Company had with its regulators.  

Note 18.   Concentration of Credit Risk  

   At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Bank’s loan portfolio consisted of commercial, real estate and consumer (installment) 
loans. Real estate secured loans represented the largest concentration at 86.96% and 87.19% of the loan portfolio for 2012 and 2011, 
respectively.  

The Bank maintains a portion of its cash balances with several financial institutions located in its market area. Accounts at 
each  institution  are  secured  by  the  FDIC  up  to  $250,000.  Uninsured  balances  were  $8.9  million  and  $6.7  million  at  December 31, 
2012 and 2011, respectively

Note 19.  

Financial Instruments With Off-Balance Sheet Risk  

The Bank is party to 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  standby  letters  of  credit.  Those 
instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance 
sheet.  The  contract  amounts  of  those  instruments  reflect  the  extent  of  involvement  the  Bank  has  in  particular  classes  of  financial 
instruments.  

The  Bank’s  exposure  to  credit  loss  in  the  event  of  nonperformance  by  the  other  party  to  the  financial  instrument  for 
commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank 
uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.  

A summary of the contract amounts of the Bank’s exposure to off-balance sheet risk as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, is as 

follows (dollars in thousands):  

Commitments with off-balance sheet risk:
Commitments to extend credit

$ 73,543    $  61,242

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.  Since  many  of  the  commitments  are  expected  to  expire  without  being drawn  upon,  the  total  commitment  amounts  do  not 
necessarily  represent  future  cash  requirements.  The  Bank  evaluates  each  customer’s  credit  worthiness  on  a  case-by-case  basis.  The 
amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank 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.  

Unfunded  commitments  under  commercial  lines  of  credit,  revolving  credit  lines  and  overdraft  protection  agreements  are 
commitments  for possible future extensions  of  credit  to  existing  customers.  These  lines  of  credit  are generally  uncollateralized  and 
usually do not contain a specified maturity date and may be drawn upon only to the total extent to which the Bank is committed.  

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a 
third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, 
bond financing, and similar transactions. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in 
extending loan facilities to customers. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, is 
based on management’s evaluation of the counterparty. Since most of the letters of credit are expected to expire without being drawn 
upon, they do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.  

Note 20.   Minimum Regulatory Capital Requirements  

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 their 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 
the  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 (set forth in the table below) 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  adjusted  average  total  assets  (as  defined).  Management  believes,  as  of 
December 31, 2012 and 2011, that the Company and Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.  

As  of  December 31,  2012,  based  on  regulatory  guidelines,  the  Company  believes  that  it  is  well  capitalized  under  the 
regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Company and the Bank must maintain 
minimum total risk-based, tier 1 risk-based, and tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table below. There are no conditions or events 
since that date that management believes have changed the Bank’s category.  

The Company’s and the Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios are presented in the following table (dollars in thousands).

Fair Values of Assets and Liabilities 

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received 
for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction 
between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 requires that valuation techniques maximize  the use of observable 
inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs and also establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the valuation inputs into 
three broad levels. The Company groups assets and liabilities 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. These levels are: 

• Level 1—Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.  

• Level 2—Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or 
similar  instruments  in  markets  that  are  not  active,  and  model-based  valuation  techniques  for  which  all  significant 
assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term 
of the assets or liabilities. 

•  Level  3—Valuation  is  determined  using  model-based  techniques  with  significant  assumptions  not  observable  in  the 
market. These unobservable assumptions reflect the Company’s own estimates of assumptions that market participants 
would  use  in  pricing  the  asset  or  liability.  Valuation  techniques  include  the  use  of  third  party  pricing  services,  option 
pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

FASB  ASC  825,  Financial  Instruments,  allows  an  entity  the  irrevocable  option  to  elect  fair  value  for  the  initial  and 
subsequent measurement for certain financial assets and liabilities on a contract-by-contract basis. The Company has not made any

Investment securities available for sale 

Investment securities available for sale are recorded at fair value each reporting period. Fair value measurement is based upon 
quoted  prices,  if  available.  If  quoted  prices  are  not  available,  fair  values  are  measured  using  independent  pricing  models  or  other 
model-based valuation techniques such as the present value of future cash flows, adjusted for the security’s credit rating, prepayment 
assumptions and other factors such as credit loss assumptions. 

The Company utilizes a third party vendor to provide fair value data for purposes of determining the fair value of its available 
for sale securities portfolio. The third party vendor uses a reputable pricing company for security market data. The third party vendor 
has  controls  and  edits  in  place  for  month-to-month  market  checks  and  zero  pricing,  and  a  Statement  on  Standards  for  Attestation 
Engagements No. 16 report is obtained from the third party vendor on an annual basis. The Company makes no adjustments to the 
pricing service data received for its securities available for sale. 

Level  1  securities  include  those  traded  on  an  active  exchange,  such  as  the  New  York  Stock  Exchange,  U.S.  Treasury 
securities that are traded by dealers or brokers in active over-the-counter markets and money market funds. Level 2 securities include

mortgage-backed  securities  issued  by  government  sponsored  entities,  municipal  bonds  and  corporate  debt  securities.  Securities 
classified as Level 3 include asset-backed securities in less liquid markets. 

Loans held for resale 

The carrying amounts of loans held for resale approximate fair value. 

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis 

The Company is also required to measure and recognize certain other financial assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis on 
the consolidated balance sheet.  For assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in 2012 and still held on the consolidated 
balance sheet at December 31, 2012, the following table provides the fair value measures by level of valuation assumptions used for 
those assets.

Impaired loans, non-covered  

Loans  for  which  it  is  probable  that  payment  of  interest  and  principal  will  not  be  made  in  accordance  with  the  contractual 
terms of the loan agreement are considered impaired. Once a loan is identified as individually impaired, management measures the 
impairment  in  accordance  with  FASB  ASC  310,  Receivables.  The  fair  value  of  impaired  loans  is  estimated  using  one  of  several 
methods, including collateral value and discounted cash flows. Those impaired loans not requiring an allowance represent loans for 
which the fair value of the expected repayments or collateral exceeds the recorded investments in such loans. At December 31, 2012 
and 2011, a majority of total impaired loans were evaluated based on the fair value of the collateral.  The Company frequently obtains 
appraisals prepared by  external  professional  appraisers  for  classified  loans greater  than  $250,000  when  the  most  recent  appraisal  is 
greater than 12 months old.  When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value, 
the Company records the impaired loan within Level 2. 

The Company may also identify collateral deterioration based on current market sales data, including price and absorption, as 
well as input from real estate sales professionals and developers, county or city tax assessments, market data and on-site inspections 
by  Company  personnel.  Internally  prepared  estimates  generally  result  from  current  market  data  and  actual  sales  data  related  to  the 
Company’s collateral or where the collateral is located. When management determines that the fair value of the collateral is further 
impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, the Company records the impaired loan as nonrecurring 
Level  3.  In  instances  where  an  appraisal  received  subsequent  to  an  internally  prepared  estimate  reflects  a  higher  collateral  value, 
management  does  not  revise  the  carrying  amount.  Impaired  loans  can  also  be  evaluated  for  impairment  using  the  present  value  of 
expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate.  The measurement of impaired loans using future cash flows 
discounted  at  the  loan’s  effective  interest  rate  rather  than  the  market  rate  of  interest  rate  is  not  a  fair  value  measurement  and  is 
therefore excluded from fair value disclosure requirements.  Reviews of classified loans are performed by management on a quarterly 
basis.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) 

The Company had one loan at December 31, 2011 collateralized with securities traded on an active exchange.  The fair value 

for this loan was recorded within Level 1.   

Other real estate owned, covered and non-covered 

Other real estate owned (OREO) assets are adjusted to fair value less estimated selling costs upon transfer of the related loans 
to OREO property. Subsequent to the transfer, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the 
lower of carrying value or fair value less estimated selling costs. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised values 
of  the  collateral  or  management’s  estimation  of  the  value  of  the  collateral.  When  the  fair  value  of  the  collateral  is  based  on  an 
observable market price or a current appraised value, the Company records the foreclosed asset within Level 2. When an appraised 
value is not available or management determines that the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value due 
to such things as absorption rates and market conditions, the Company records the foreclosed asset within Level 3 of the fair value 
hierarchy.   

Fair Value of Financial Instruments 

FASB  ASC  825,  Financial  Instruments,  requires  disclosure  of  the  fair  value  of  financial  assets  and  financial  liabilities, 
including those financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured and reported at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring 
basis.    FASB  ASC  825  excludes  certain  financial  instruments  and  all  nonfinancial  instruments  from  its  disclosure  requirements. 
Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented may not necessarily represent the underlying fair value of the Company.  

The following reflects the fair value of financial instruments, whether or not recognized on the consolidated balance sheet, at 
fair value measures by level of valuation assumptions used for those assets.  This table excludes financial instruments for which the 
carrying value approximates fair value.

The following methods were used to estimate the fair value of all other financial instruments recognized in the accompanying 
balance sheets at amounts other than fair value as of December 31, 2012. The Company applied the provisions of ASC 820 to the fair

the Company to maximize the use of observable inputs and to measure fair value using a notion of exit price were factored into the 
Company’s selection of inputs into its established valuation techniques. 

Financial Assets 

Cash and cash equivalents 

The carrying amounts of cash and due from banks, interest-bearing bank deposits, and federal funds sold approximate fair 

value. 

Securities held for investment 

For securities held for investment, fair values are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes.  

Restricted securities  

The carrying value of restricted securities approximates their fair value based on the redemption provisions of the respective 

issuer.  

Loans held for resale 

The carrying amounts of loans held for resale approximate fair value. 

Loans not covered by FDIC shared loss agreement (non-covered loans) 

For  certain  homogeneous  categories  of  loans,  such  as  some  residential  mortgages  and  other  consumer  loans,  fair  value  is 
estimated using the quoted market prices for securities backed by similar loans, adjusted for differences in loan characteristics. The 
fair value of other types of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would 
be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.  The fair value of impaired loans included here 
is consistent with the methodology used for the ASC 820 disclosure for assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis presented 
above.  

Loans covered by FDIC shared loss agreement (covered loans) 

Fair values for covered loans are based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considers various factors including the 
type of loan and related collateral, classification status, term of loan and whether or not the loans are amortizing. Loans were pooled 
together  according  to  similar  characteristics  and  were  treated  in  the  aggregate  when  applying  various  valuation  techniques.  The 
discount  rates  used  for  loans  are  based  on  the  rates  used  at  acquisition  (which  were  based  on  market  rates  for  new  originations  of 
comparable  loans)  adjusted  for  any  material  changes  in  interest  rates  since  acquisition.    Increases  in  cash  flow  expectations  since 
acquisition resulted in estimated fair value being higher than carrying value.  The increase in cash flows is also reflected in a transfer 
from unaccretable yield to accretable yield as disclosed in Note 4. 

FDIC indemnification asset 

Loss  sharing  assets  are  measured  separately  from  the  related  covered  assets  as  they  are  not  contractually  embedded  in  the 
covered assets and are not transferable with the assets should the Company choose to dispose of them. Fair value is estimated using 
projected cash flows related to the obligations under the shared loss agreements based on the expected reimbursements for losses and 
the  applicable  loss  sharing  percentages.  These  expected  reimbursements  do  not  include  reimbursable  amounts  related  to  future 
covered  expenditures.  These  cash  flows  were  discounted  to  reflect  the  uncertainty  of  the  timing  and  receipt  of  the  loss  sharing 
reimbursement from the FDIC.  A reduction in loss expectations has resulted in the estimated fair value of the FDIC indemnification 
asset being lower than its carrying value.  This creates a premium that is amortized over the life of the asset and is reflected in Note 5.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued) 

Accrued interest receivable 

The carrying amounts of accrued interest receivable approximate fair value.  

Financial Liabilities 

Noninterest-bearing deposits  

The carrying amount of noninterest-bearing deposits approximates fair value. 

Interest-bearing deposits  

The fair value of NOW accounts, savings accounts, and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at 
the reporting date. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of 
similar remaining maturities.  

Federal funds purchased 

The carrying amount of federal funds purchased approximates fair value. 

Long-term borrowings  

The fair values of the Company’s long-term borrowings, such as FHLB advances, are estimated using discounted cash flow 

analyses based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.  

Accrued interest payable 

The carrying amount of accrued interest payable approximate fair value.  

Off-balance sheet financial instruments  

The fair value of commitments to extend credit is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, 
taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed-rate loan 
commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The fair value 
of stand-by letters of credit is based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate them or 
otherwise  settle  the  obligations  with  the  counterparties  at  the  reporting  date.  The  Company’s  off-balance  sheet  commitments  are 
funded at current market rates at the date they are drawn upon.  It is management’s opinion that the fair value of these commitments 
would approximate their carrying value, if drawn upon.    

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.  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 rates 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. 

Note 22.  

Trust Preferred Capital Notes  

On December 12, 2003, BOE Statutory Trust I, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, was formed for the purpose of 
issuing redeemable capital securities. On December 12, 2003, $4.124 million of trust preferred securities were issued through a direct 
placement. The securities have a LIBOR-indexed floating rate of interest. The average interest rate at December 31, 2012, 2011 and 
2010 was 3.57%, 3.43%, and 3.34%, respectively. The securities have a mandatory redemption date of December 12, 2033 and are

subject  to  varying  call  provisions  which  began  December 12,  2008.  The  principal  asset  of  the  Trust  is  $4.124 million  of  the 
Company’s junior subordinated debt securities with the like maturities and like interest rates to the capital securities.  

The trust preferred notes may be included in tier 1 capital for regulatory capital adequacy determination purposes up to 25% 
of tier 1 capital after its inclusion. The portion of the trust preferred not considered as tier 1 capital may be included in tier 2 capital. 
At December 31, 2012, all trust preferred notes were included in tier 1 capital.  

The  obligations  of  the  Company  with  respect  to  the  issuance  of  the  capital  securities  constitute  a  full  and  unconditional 

guarantee by the Company of the Trust’s obligations with respect to the capital securities.  

Subject  to  certain  exceptions  and  limitations,  the  Company  may  elect  from  time  to  time  to  defer  interest  payments  on  the 
junior subordinated debt securities, which would result in a deferral of distribution payments on the related capital securities. During 
2011 and 2010, the Company accrued and elected to defer $143,000 and $72,000, respectively, in total interest payments related to its 
trust  preferred  notes,  respectively.    On  March  16,  2012,  the  Company  paid  all  of  its  previously  deferred  interest  payments  and  the 
interest payment that would have been due on March 31, 2012.  Accordingly, the Company is current in its obligations under the trust 
preferred notes.

Note 26.  

Subsequent Events  

In  preparing  these  financial  statements,  the  Company  has  evaluated  events  and  transactions  for  potential  recognition  or 

disclosure through the date the financial statements were issued.  

Note 27.  

Preferred Stock  

On December 19, 2008, under the Department of the Treasury’s TARP Capital Purchase Program, the Company issued to the 
U.S. Treasury 17,680 shares of Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A (Series A Preferred Stock), and a 10-year 
warrant  to  purchase  up  to  780,000 shares  of  common  stock  at  an  exercise  price  of  $3.40  per  share.  Cumulative  dividends  on  the 
Series A  Preferred  Stock  are  payable  at  5% per  annum  through  December 19,  2013,  and  at  a  rate  of  9% per  annum  thereafter.  The 
warrant is exercisable at any time until December 19, 2018, and the number of shares of common stock underlying the warrant and the 
exercise price are subject to adjustment for certain dilutive events.  

The Company received proceeds of $17.68 million for the Series A Preferred Stock and the Warrant. The Company allocated 
the proceeds based on a relative fair value basis between the Series A Preferred Stock and the Warrant, recording $16.64 million and 
$1.04 million, respectively. Fair value of the preferred stock was estimated based on a discounted cash flow model using an estimated 
life of 50 years and a discount rate of 12%. Fair value of the stock warrant was estimated using a Black-Scholes model assuming stock 
price volatility of 27.5%, a dividend yield of 0.5%, a risk-free rate of 1.35% and an expected life of five years. The $16.64 million of 
Series A Preferred Stock is net of a discount of $1.04 million. The discount is being accreted to the $17.68 million redemption price 
over a five year period. The accretion of the discount and dividends on the preferred stock reduce retained earnings.  

Each share of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding has no par value, has a liquidation preference of $1,000 and is 
redeemable at the Company’s option, subject to approval of the Federal Reserve, at a redemption price equal to $1,000 plus accrued 
and unpaid dividends. The Series A Preferred Stock has a preference over the Company’s common stock upon liquidation. Dividends 
on the preferred stock, if declared, are payable quarterly in arrears. The Company’s ability to declare or pay dividends on, or purchase, 
redeem or otherwise acquire, its common stock is subject to certain restrictions in the event that the Company fails to pay or set aside 
full dividends on the preferred stock for the latest completed dividend period.  

The  Company  may  defer  dividend  payments,  but  the  dividend  is  a  cumulative  dividend  that  accrues  for  payment  in  the 
future.  Deferred dividends also accrue interest at the same rate as the dividend.  The failure to pay dividends for six dividend periods 
triggers the right for the holder of the Series A Preferred Stock to appoint two directors to the Company’s board. 

As of December 31, 2012, the Company is current in its payment of dividends, each in the amount of $221,000, with respect 

to the Series A Preferred Stock.

CHANGES  IN  AND  DISAGREEMENTS  WITH  ACCOUNTANTS  ON  ACCOUNTING  AND  FINANCIAL 
DISCLOSURE  

Not applicable.  

ITEM 9A.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES  

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures  

As of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-K, the Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s 
chief  executive  officer  and  chief  financial  officer  (“the  Certifying  Officers”),  conducted  evaluations  of  the  Company’s  disclosure 
controls  and  procedures.  As  defined  under  Section 13a-15(e)  of  the  Securities  Exchange  Act  of  1934,  as  amended  (the  “Exchange 
Act”), the term “disclosure controls and procedures” means controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that 
information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, 
summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures 
include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the 
reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including the 
Certifying Officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.  

Based on this evaluation, the Certifying Officers have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were 
effective to ensure that material information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported by management of the Company on a 
timely  basis  in  order  to  comply  with  the  Company’s  disclosure  obligations  under  the  Exchange  Act  and  the  rules  and  regulations 
promulgated thereunder.  

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting  

The  management  of  the  Company  is  responsible  for  establishing  and  maintaining  adequate  internal  control  over  financial 
reporting.  The  Company’s  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  is  a  process  designed  under  the  supervision  of  the  Certifying 
Officers to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s financial 
statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. 

As of December 31, 2012, management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting 
based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in “Internal Control — Integrated Framework,” 
issued  by  the  Committee  of  Sponsoring  Organizations  (“COSO”)  of  the  Treadway  Commission.  This  assessment  included  controls 
over  the  preparation  of  the  schedules  equivalent  to  the  basic  financial  statements  in  accordance  with  the  instructions  for  the 
Consolidated Financial Statements for Bank Holding Companies (Form FR Y-9C) to meet the reporting requirements of Section 112 
of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act. 

Based  on  its  assessment,  management  concluded  that,  as  of  December  31,  2012,  the  Company’s  internal  control  over 

financial reporting was effective based on the criteria set forth by COSO in its “Internal Control — Integrated Framework.” 

Elliott Davis, LLC, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited the consolidated financial statements of the 
Company  included  in  this  Form 10-K,  has  issued  an  attestation  report  on  management’s  assessment  of  the  effectiveness  of  the 
Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012. The report is included in Item 8, “Financial Statements 
and Supplementary Data”, above under the heading “Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.”  

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting 

There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation 
of internal controls that occurred during the fourth quarter of 2012 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially 
affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

and the risks these plans pose to the Company;  

(ii)  During  the  discussions,  reviews  and  evaluations  described  above,  the  Company’s  Compensation 
Committee  did  not  identify,  and  thus  did  not  need  to  take  steps  to  limit,  during  the  most  recently 
completed  fiscal  year  any  features  of  the  SEO  compensation  plans  that  could  lead  SEOs  to  take 
unnecessary  and  excessive  risks  that  could threaten  the  value  of  the  Company,  and  the  Company’s 
Compensation Committee did not identify any features of the employee compensation plans that pose 
risks  to  the  Company,  and  thus  did  not  need to  take  steps  to  limit those  features  to  ensure  that  the 
Company is not unnecessarily exposed to risks;  

(iii) The Company’s Compensation Committee has reviewed, at least every six months during the most 
recently  completed  fiscal  year,  the  terms  of  each  employee  compensation  plan  and  identified  any 
features  of  the  plan  that could encourage  the  manipulation  of reported earnings  of the  Company  to 
enhance the compensation of an employee, and has limited any such features;  

(iv) The Company’s Compensation Committee will certify to the reviews of the SEO compensation plans 

and employee compensation plans required under paragraphs (i) and (iii) above; 

(v)  The  Company’s  Compensation  Committee  will  provide  a  narrative  description  of  how  it  limited

Company to enhance the compensation of an employee;

or any other materially inaccurate performance metric criteria;  

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(vii)  The  Company  has  prohibited  any  golden  parachute  payment,  as  defined  in  the  regulations  and

compensated employees during the most recently completed fiscal year; 

(viii) The Company has limited bonus payments to its applicable employees in accordance with Section 
111  of  EESA  and  the  regulations  and  guidance  established  thereunder  during  the  most  recently

board  of  directors,  a  committee  of  the  board  of  directors,  an  SEO,  or  an  executive  officer  with  a 
similar level of responsibility were properly approved;  

(x) The Company will permit a non-binding shareholder resolution in compliance with applicable federal 
securities rules and regulations on the disclosures provided under the federal securities laws related to 
SEO compensation paid or accrued during the most recently completed fiscal year;  

(xi)  The  Company  will  disclose  the  amount,  nature,  and  justification  for  the  offering,  during  the  most 
recently  completed  fiscal  year,  of  any  perquisites,  as  defined  in  the  regulations  and  guidance 
established under Section 111 of EESA, whose total value exceeds $25,000 for the employee who is 
subject to the bonus payment limitations identified in paragraph (viii);  

(xii)  The  Company  will  disclose  whether  the  Company,  the  Company’s  board  of  directors,  or  the 
Company’s Compensation Committee has engaged during the most recently completed fiscal year a 
compensation  consultant;  and  the  services  the  compensation  consultant  or  any  affiliate  of  the 
compensation consultant provided during this period;  

(xiii)  The  Company  has  prohibited  the  payment  of  any  gross-ups,  as  defined  in  the  regulations  and

SEO and most highly compensated employee identified; and  

(xvi) I understand that a knowing and willful false or fraudulent statement made in connection with this 
certification may be punished by fine, imprisonment, or both. (See, for example, 18 USC 1001.)

IFR Section 30.15 – Certification for Years following First Fiscal Year 
(Principal Financial Officer) 

COMMUNITY BANKERS TRUST CORPORATION 

UST #113 

Exhibit 99.2 

I,  Bruce  E.  Thomas,  the  Executive  Vice  President  and  Chief  Financial  Officer  of  Community  Bankers 
Trust Corporation (the “Company”), certify, based on my knowledge, that:  

(i)   The  Company’s  Compensation  Committee  has  discussed,  reviewed  and  evaluated  with  senior  risk 
officers at least every six months during the most recently completed fiscal year, all of which was a 
TARP period, senior executive officer (SEO) compensation plans and employee compensation plans 
and the risks these plans pose to the Company;  

(ii)  During  the  discussions,  reviews  and  evaluations  described  above,  the  Company’s  Compensation 
Committee  did  not  identify,  and  thus  did  not  need  to  take  steps  to  limit,  during  the  most  recently 
completed  fiscal  year  any  features  of  the  SEO  compensation  plans  that  could  lead  SEOs  to  take 
unnecessary  and  excessive  risks  that  could threaten  the  value  of  the  Company,  and  the  Company’s 
Compensation Committee did not identify any features of the employee compensation plans that pose 
risks  to  the  Company,  and  thus  did  not  need to  take  steps  to limit  those  features  to  ensure  that  the 
Company is not unnecessarily exposed to risks;  

(iii) The Company’s Compensation Committee has reviewed, at least every six months during the most 
recently  completed  fiscal  year,  the  terms  of  each  employee  compensation  plan  and  identified  any 
features  of  the  plan  that could encourage  the  manipulation  of reported earnings  of the  Company  to 
enhance the compensation of an employee, and has limited any such features;  

(iv) The Company’s Compensation Committee will certify to the reviews of the SEO compensation plans 

and employee compensation plans required under paragraphs (i) and (iii) above; 

(v)  The  Company’s  Compensation  Committee  will  provide  a  narrative  description  of  how  it  limited 

during any part of the most recently completed fiscal year the features in:  

(A) SEO compensation plans that could lead SEOs to take unnecessary and excessive risks that could 

threaten the value of the Company;  

(B) Employee compensation plans that unnecessarily expose the Company to risks; and  

(C) Employee compensation plans that could encourage the manipulation of reported earnings of the 

Company to enhance the compensation of an employee;  

(vi)  The  Company  has  required  that  bonus  payments  to  SEOs  or  any  of  the  next  twenty  most  highly 
compensated employees, as defined in the regulations and guidance established under Section 111 of

completed fiscal year if the bonus payments were based on materially inaccurate financial statements 
or any other materially inaccurate performance metric criteria;  

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(vii)  The  Company  has  prohibited  any  golden  parachute  payment,  as  defined  in  the  regulations  and 
guidance  established  under  Section  111  of  EESA,  to  an  SEO  or  any  of  the  next  five  most  highly 
compensated employees during the most recently completed fiscal year; 

(viii) The Company has limited bonus payments to its applicable employees in accordance with Section 
111  of  EESA  and  the  regulations  and  guidance  established  thereunder  during  the  most  recently 
completed fiscal year;  

(ix) The Company and its employees have complied with the excessive or luxury expenditures policy, as 
defined  in  the  regulations  and  guidance  established  under  Section  111  of  EESA,  during  the  most 
recently completed fiscal year; and any expenses that, pursuant to the policy, required approval of the 
board  of  directors,  a  committee  of  the  board  of  directors,  an  SEO,  or  an  executive  officer  with  a 
similar level of responsibility were properly approved;  

(x) The Company will permit a non-binding shareholder resolution in compliance with applicable federal 
securities rules and regulations on the disclosures provided under the federal securities laws related to 
SEO compensation paid or accrued during the most recently completed fiscal year;  

(xi)  The  Company  will  disclose  the  amount,  nature,  and  justification  for  the  offering,  during  the  most 
recently  completed  fiscal  year,  of  any  perquisites,  as  defined  in  the  regulations  and  guidance 
established under Section 111 of EESA, whose total value exceeds $25,000 for the employee who is 
subject to the bonus payment limitations identified in paragraph (viii);  

(xii)  The  Company  will  disclose  whether  the  Company,  the  Company’s  board  of  directors,  or  the 
Company’s Compensation Committee has engaged during the most recently completed fiscal year a 
compensation  consultant;  and  the  services  the  compensation  consultant  or  any  affiliate  of  the 
compensation consultant provided during this period;  

(xiii)  The  Company  has  prohibited  the  payment  of  any  gross-ups,  as  defined  in  the  regulations  and 
guidance  established  under  Section  111  of  EESA,  to  the  SEOs  and  the  next  twenty  most  highly 
compensated employees during the most recently completed fiscal year;  

(xiv)  The  Company  has  substantially  complied  with  all  other  requirements  related  to  employee 
compensation that are provided in the agreement between the Company and Treasury, including any 
amendments;

next  most  highly  compensated  employees  for  the  current  fiscal  year,  with  the  non-SEOs  ranked  in 
descending  order  of  level  of  annual  compensation,  and  with  the  name,  title,  and  employer  of  each 
SEO and most highly compensated employee identified; and  

(xvi) I understand that a knowing and willful false or fraudulent statement made in connection with this 
certification may be punished by fine, imprisonment, or both. (See, for example, 18 USC 1001.)
