Note 6 Fair Value
FASB Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS No. 157), defines fair value,
establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for
disclosure of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value
measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of
an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:
Level
1 Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted)
for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level
2 Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar
assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for
the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the
full term of the financial instrument.
Level 3 Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant
to the fair value measurement.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 6 Fair Value, continued
The following sections provide a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments
measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the
valuation hierarchy:
Securities: Where quoted prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within
Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities would include highly liquid government
bonds, mortgage products and exchange traded equities. If quoted market prices are not available,
then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar
characteristics, or discounted cash flow. Level 2 securities would include U.S. agency securities,
mortgage-backed agency securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions and certain
corporate, asset backed and other securities. In certain cases where there is limited activity or
less transparency around inputs to the valuation, securities are classified within Level 3 of the
valuation hierarchy. Currently, all of the Companys securities are considered to be Level 2
securities.
Impaired Loans: SFAS No. 157 applies to loans measured for impairment using the practical
expedients permitted by SFAS No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, including
impaired loans measured at an observable market price (if available), or at the fair value of the
loans collateral (if the loan is collateral dependent). Fair value of the loans collateral, when
the loan is dependent on collateral, is determined by appraisals or independent valuation which is
then adjusted for the cost related to liquidation of the collateral.
Other Real Estate Owned: Certain assets such as other real estate owned (OREO) are measured at fair
value less cost to sell. We believe that the fair value component in its valuation follows the
provisions of SFAS No. 157.
Assets and Liabilities Recorded at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The table below presents the recorded amount of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a
recurring basis.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations
F & M Bank Corp. (Company) incorporated in Virginia in 1983, is a one-bank holding company

services through its wholly-owned subsidiary Farmers & Merchants Bank (Bank). TEB Life Insurance
Company (TEB) and Farmers & Merchants Financial Services (FMFS) are wholly-owned subsidiaries of
the Bank. Ownership of TEB was transferred from the Company to the Bank during the first quarter of

The Bank is a full service commercial bank offering a wide range of banking and financial
services through its nine branch offices. TEB reinsures credit life and accident and health
insurance sold by the Bank in connection with its lending activities. FMFS provides title

Harrisonburg, VA in 1999. VBS has three offices, located in Harrisonburg, Broadway and Roanoke,
Virginia.
The Companys primary trade area services customers in Rockingham County, Shenandoah County,
Page County and the northern part of Augusta County.
Managements discussion and analysis is presented to assist the reader in understanding and
evaluating the financial condition and results of operations of the Company. The analysis focuses
on the consolidated financial statements, footnotes, and other financial data presented. The
discussion highlights material changes from prior reporting periods and any identifiable trends
which may affect the Company. Amounts have been rounded for presentation purposes. This discussion
and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes
to the Consolidated Financial Statements presented in Item 1, Part 1 or this Form 10Q.
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this report may constitute forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are
statements that include projections, predictions, expectations or beliefs about future events or
results or otherwise are not statements of historical fact. Such statements are often
characterized by the use of qualified words (and their derivatives) such as expect, believe,
estimate, plan, project, or other statements concerning opinions or judgment of the Company
and its management about future events.
Although the Company believes that its expectations with respect to certain forward-looking
statements are based upon reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its existing 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. Actual future results and trends may
differ materially from historical results or those anticipated depending on a variety of factors,
including, but not limited to, the effects of and changes in: general economic conditions, the
interest rate environment, legislative and regulatory requirements, competitive pressures, new
products and delivery systems, inflation, changes in the stock and bond markets, technology, and
consumer spending and savings habits.
We do not update any forward-looking statements that may be made from time to time by or on
behalf of the Company.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations (Continued)
Critical Accounting Policies
General
The Companys 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 either when earning income, recognizing an expense,
recovering an asset or relieving a liability. 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 are used. The fair value of the
investment portfolio is based on period end valuations but changes daily with the market. In
addition, GAAP itself may change from one previously acceptable method to another method. Although
the economics of these transactions would be the same, the timing of events that would impact these
transactions could change.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is an estimate of the losses that may be sustained in the loan
portfolio. The allowance is based on two basic principles of accounting: (i) Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, which requires that losses be
accrued when they are probable of occurring and estimable and (ii) SFAS No. 114, Accounting by
Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, which requires that losses be accrued based on the differences
between the value of collateral, present value of future cash flows or values that are observable
in the secondary market and the loan balance.
Goodwill and Intangibles
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 141, Business Combinations and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all
business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. Additionally, it further clarifies the
criteria for the initial recognition and measurement of intangible assets separate from goodwill.
SFAS No. 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 and prescribes the
accounting for goodwill and intangible assets subsequent to initial recognition. The provisions of
SFAS No. 142 discontinue the amortization of goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives.
Instead, these assets will be subject to at least an annual impairment review and more frequently
if certain impairment indicators are in evidence. SFAS No. 142 also requires that reporting units
be identified for the purpose of assessing potential future impairments of goodwill.
Core deposit intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis over ten years. The Company
adopted SFAS 147 on January 1, 2002 and determined that the core deposit intangible will continue
to be amortized over the estimated useful life.
Securities Impairment
The Company evaluates each of its investments in securities, debt and equity, under guidelines
contained in SFAS 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. These
guidelines require the Company to determine whether a decline in value below original cost is other
than temporary. In making its determination, management considers current market conditions,
historical trends in the individual securities, and historical trends in the total market.
Expectations are developed regarding potential returns from dividend reinvestment and price
appreciation over a reasonable holding period (five years).

Operations (Continued)
Overview
Net income for the first quarter of 2009 was $884,000 or $.39 per share, compared to
$1,004,000 or $.43 in the first quarter of 2008, a decrease of 11.95%. Core operating earnings,
(exclusive of non-recurring items) totaled $1,067,000 in 2009 and $982,000 in 2008, an increase of
8.66%. During the first quarter, noninterest income, exclusive of securities transactions,
decreased 2.3% and noninterest expense increased 5.3% during the same period.
Results of Operations
The 2009 year to date tax equivalent net interest margin increased $553,000 or 15.83% compared
to the same period in 2008. The yield on earning assets decreased .86%, while the cost of funds
decreased .72% compared to the same period in 2008. These decreases resulted as maturing assets and
liabilities continued to reprice at lower rates. In response to the economic slowdown, the Federal
Reserves Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) began lowering short-term interest rates in
September 2007. As of March 31, 2009, the FOMC had lowered the Federal Funds Rate to an historic
low of 0 to 25 BP. The Prime Rate, which typically tracks at 3.00% above the Federal Funds Rate,
currently stands at 3.25%
The Interest Sensitivity Analysis on page 17 indicates the Company is in a liability sensitive
position in the one year time horizon, the recent decrease in rates and asset growth has resulted
in a .33% decrease in the net interest margin compared to the same period in 2008. This has
resulted due to the fact that a large portion of rate sensitive liabilities (primarily interest
bearing demand deposits and savings) have reached a virtual rate floor (due to the current level of
market rates), while rate sensitive assets continue to reprice at lower rates.
A schedule of the net interest margin for 2009 and 2008 can be found in Table I on page 16.
Noninterest income, exclusive of securities transactions, decreased $33,000 or 4.83% through
March 31, 2009. Items contributing to the decrease include an $18,000 decrease in service charges,
a $55,000 decrease in secondary market fee income offset by $39,000 of income from VBS Mortgage,
Inc. income.
Noninterest expense increased $141,000 in 2009. The increase is the result of a $64,000
increase in salaries and benefits expense (4.0%). The increase in salaries and benefits includes
normal salary increases, growth in staff and increased pension expense . Exclusive of personnel
expenses, other noninterest expenses increased at an annualized rate of 7.3% in 2009 compared to
2008. Areas that increased include a $50,000 increase in the FDIC Assessment and a $30,000 increase
in data processing expense. The increase in FDIC Assessment is due to the growth of the Bank as
well as the expiration of credits that were still in place in 2008. Data processing increased due
to some reclassification of expenses as well as new systems. Operating costs continue to compare
very favorably to the peer group. As stated in the most recently available Bank Holding Company
Performance Report, the Companys and peer group noninterest expenses averaged 2.60% and 3.44% of
average assets, respectively. The Companys operating costs have always compared favorably to the
peer group due to an excellent asset to employee ratio and below average facilities costs.
Financial Condition
Federal Funds Sold and Interest Bearing Bank Deposits
The Companys subsidiary bank invests a portion of its excess liquidity in either federal
funds sold or interest bearing bank deposits. Federal funds sold offer daily liquidity and pay
market rates of interest that at quarter end was benchmarked at 0% to .25% by the Federal Reserve.
Actual rates received vary slightly based upon money supply and demand among banks. Interest
bearing bank deposits are held either in money market accounts or as short-term certificates of
deposits. Combined balances in fed funds sold and interest bearing bank deposits have decreased due
to growth in the loan portfolio.
Securities
The Companys securities portfolio serves several purposes. Portions of the portfolio are
held to assist the Company with liquidity, asset liability management, as security for certain
public funds and repurchase agreements and for long-term growth potential.
11
Table of Contents
Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations (Continued)
The securities portfolio consists of investment securities (commonly referred to as
securities held to maturity) and securities available for sale. Securities are classified as
investment securities when management has the intent and ability to hold the securities to
maturity. Investment securities are carried at amortized cost. Securities available for sale
include securities that may be sold in response to general market fluctuations, liquidity needs and
other similar factors. Securities available for sale are recorded at market value. Unrealized
holding gains and losses on available for sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported
(net of deferred income taxes) as a separate component of shareholders equity.
As of March 31, 2009, the cost of securities available for sale exceeded their market value by
$2,503,000. This includes decreases in value in the equity securities portfolio held by the Company
and an increase in the value of government obligations held by the Bank. Management has
traditionally held debt securities (regardless of classification) until maturity and thus it does
not expect the fluctuations in value of these securities to have a direct impact on earnings.
Investments in debt securities were virtually unchanged in 2009. The portfolio is made up of
primarily agency and mortgage-backed securities with an average portfolio life of approximately two
years. This short average life results in less portfolio volatility and positions the Bank to
redeploy assets in response to rising rates. Scheduled maturities for the second quarter of 2009
total $7,089,000 and these bonds have an average yield of approximately 5.24%. Based on current
market rates, as these bonds mature, the funds will be reinvested at rates that are significantly
lower.
The Companys equity securities portfolio was $2,954,000 below cost at March 31, 2009. The
decrease in the value of the equities portfolio is spread over a number of asset sectors including
holdings in the financial sector. To minimize risk the Company holds a diversified portfolio of
equity investments in a number of large, regional financial institutions and a variety of other
predominantly blue-chip securities. Management continues to believe that these investments offer
adequate current returns (dividends) and have the potential for future increases in value.
A review of these investments as of March 31, 2009, revealed several securities that were
impaired as of quarter end resulting in a write down of securities for book purposes of $330,000,
or $218,000 net of deferred tax. Management continues to re-evaluate the portfolio for impairment
on a quarterly basis.
Loan Portfolio
The Company operates in a predominately rural area that includes the counties of Rockingham,
Page and Shenandoah in the western portion of Virginia. The local economy benefits from a variety
of businesses including agri-business, manufacturing, service businesses and several universities
and colleges. The Bank is an active residential mortgage and residential construction lender and
generally makes commercial loans to small and mid size businesses and farms within its primary
service area.
The allowance for loan losses (see subsequent section) provides for the risk that borrowers
will be unable to repay their obligations and is reviewed quarterly for adequacy. The risk
associated with real estate and installment notes to individuals is based upon employment, the
local and national economies and consumer confidence. All of these affect the ability of borrowers
to repay indebtedness. The risk associated with commercial lending is substantially based on the
strength of the local and national economies.
While lending is geographically diversified within the service area, the Company does have
loan concentrations in agricultural (primarily poultry farming), construction, hotels, churches,
assisted living facilities and the aforementioned mortgage participations. Management and the
Board of Directors review these concentrations quarterly. The first three months of 2009 resulted
in a increase of $9,533,000 in the Banks core loan portfolio.

(Continued)
Nonperforming loans include nonaccrual loans, loans 90 days or more past due and restructured
loans. Nonaccrual loans are loans on which interest accruals have been suspended or discontinued
permanently. Restructured loans are loans which have had the original interest rate or repayment
terms changed due to financial hardship. Nonperforming loans totaled $4,961,000 at March 31, 2009
compared to $4,766,000 at December 31, 2008. Approximately 87% of these past due loans are secured
by real estate. Although the potential exists for some loan losses, management believes the bank is
generally well secured and continues to actively work with its customers to effect payment. As of
March 31, 2009, the Company does not hold any real estate which was acquired through foreclosure.
The following is a summary of information pertaining to risk elements and impaired loans:

Allowance for Loan Losses
Management evaluates the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis in light of national
and local economic trends, changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio and the trend of
past due and criticized loans. Specific factors evaluated include internally generated loan review
reports, past due reports, historical loan loss experience and changes in the financial strength of
individual borrowers that have been included on the Banks watch list or schedule of classified
loans.
In evaluating the portfolio, loans are segregated into loans with identified potential losses
and pools of loans by type (commercial, residential, consumer, credit cards). Loans with identified
potential losses include examiner and bank classified loans. Classified relationships in excess of
$100,000 are reviewed individually for impairment under FAS 114. A variety of factors are taken
into account when reviewing these credits including borrower cash flow, payment history, fair value
of collateral, company management, the industry in which the borrower is involved and economic
factors. Loan relationships that are determined to have no impairment are placed back into the
appropriate loan pool and reviewed under FAS 5.
Loan pools are further segmented into watch list, past due over 90 days and all other loans by
type. Watch list loans include loans that are 60 days past due, and may include restructured loans,
borrowers that are highly leveraged, loans that have been upgraded from classified or loans that
contain policy exceptions (term, collateral coverage, etc.). Loss estimates on these loans reflect
the increased risk associated with these assets due to any of the above factors. The past due pools
contain loans that are currently 90 days or more past due. Loss rates assigned reflect the fact
that these loans bear a significantly higher risk of charge-off. Loss rates vary by loan type to
reflect the likelihood that collateral values will offset a portion of the anticipated losses.
The remainder of the portfolio falls into pools by type of homogenous loans that do not
exhibit any of the above described weaknesses. Loss rates are assigned based on historical loss
rates over the prior five years. A multiplier has been applied to these loss rates to reflect the
time for loans to season within the portfolio and the inherent imprecision of these estimates.
All potential losses are evaluated within a range of low to high. An unallocated reserve has
been established to reflect other unidentified losses within the portfolio. This helps to offset
the increased risk of loss associated with fluctuations in past due trends, changes in the local
and national economies, and other unusual events. The Board approves the loan loss provision for
the following quarter based on this evaluation and an effort is made to keep the actual allowance
at or above the midpoint of the range established by the evaluation process.

Item 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued) |
The allowance for loan losses of $2,381,000 at March 31, 2009 is equal to .58% of loans held
for investment. This compares to an allowance of $2,189,000 (.55%) at December 31, 2008. Management
has funded the allowance a total of $210,000 in the first quarter of 2009. Total charge-offs exceed
recoveries by $18,000 year to date, annualized this equates to a loss rate of slightly less than .02%. In recent years, the company has had an average loss rate of .08% which is approximately one
half the loss rate of its peer group.
The overall level of the allowance is well below its peer group average. Management feels this
is appropriate based on its loan loss history and the composition of its loan portfolio; the
current allowance for loan losses is equal to approximately seven years of average loan losses.
Based on historical losses, delinquency rates, collateral values of delinquent loans and a thorough
review of the loan portfolio, management is of the opinion that the allowance for loan losses
fairly states the estimated losses in the current portfolio.
Deposits and Other Borrowings
The Companys main source of funding is comprised of deposits received from individuals,
governmental entities and businesses located within the Companys service area. Deposit accounts
include demand deposits, savings, money market and certificates of deposit. Total deposits have
increased $22,098,000 since December 31, 2008. Time deposits increased $15,375,000 during this
period while demand deposits and savings deposits increased $6,723,000. The increase in
certificates of deposit increased as a result of non-local certificates (gathered through an online
listing service used by other banks and credit unions) and as a result of the Banks membership in
the CDARS program. CDARS (Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service) is a program that allows
the bank to accept customer deposits in excess of FDIC limits and through reciprocal agreements
with other network participating banks offer FDIC insurance up to as much as $50 million in
deposits. The CDARS program also allows the Bank to purchase funds through its One-Way Buy program.
At year end the Bank had obtained a total of $25,827,000 in CDARS funding.
Short-term debt
Short-term debt consists of federal funds purchased, commercial repurchase agreements (repos.)
and daily rate credit from the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB). Commercial customers deposit
operating funds into their checking account and by mutual agreement with the bank their excess
funds are swept daily into the repurchase accounts. These accounts are not considered deposits and
are not insured by the FDIC. The Bank pledges securities held in its investment portfolio as
collateral for these short-term loans. Federal funds purchased are overnight borrowings obtained
from the Banks primary correspondent bank to manage short-term liquidity needs. Daily rate credit
from the FHLB has been used to finance loans held for sale and also to finance the increase in
short-term residential and commercial construction loans.
Long-term debt
Borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (FHLB) continue to be an important
source of funding real estate loan growth. The Companys subsidiary bank borrows funds on a fixed
rate basis. These borrowings are used to fund either a fifteen-year fixed rate loan or a
twenty-year loan, of which the first ten years have a fixed rate. This program allows the Bank to
match the maturity of its fixed rate real estate portfolio with the maturity of its debt and thus
reduce its exposure to interest rate changes. Scheduled repayments totaled $6,202,000 through
March 31, 2009. Additional borrowings of $7,250,000 were obtained to refinance maturing debt at
more favorable longer term rates.
In March 2008, the Company entered into an agreement with a correspondent bank (Silverton
Bank) to provide a $5 million line of credit to be used for general corporate purposes, including
capital contributions to the Bank and for the current stock repurchase program. The loan is
unsecured and bears a rate of prime minus 1.25%. At March, 31, 2009, $5 million was owed on this
line of credit. In September 2008 the Company entered into an agreement with Page Valley Bank to
provide a $1 million term loan to be used for a capital contribution to the Bank. The loan is
unsecured and bears a rate of prime. Repayment terms include quarterly payments of $250,000 plus
interest beginning in December.

Capital
The Company seeks to maintain a strong capital base to expand facilities, promote public
confidence, support current operations and grow at a manageable level. As of March 31, 2009, the
Companys total risk based capital and total capital to total assets ratios were 9.71% and 7.05%,
respectively. Both ratios are in excess of regulatory minimums. For the same period, Bank only
total risked based capital and total capital to total assets ratios were 10.50% and 7.70%,
respectively.
Liquidity
Liquidity is the 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,
investments and loans maturing within one year. The Companys ability to obtain deposits and
purchase funds at favorable rates determines its liquidity exposure. As a result of the Companys
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.
Additional sources of liquidity available to the Company include, but are not limited to, loan
repayments, the ability to obtain deposits through the adjustment of interest rates and the
purchasing of federal funds. To further meet its liquidity needs, the Company also maintains lines
of credit with correspondent financial institutions. The Companys subsidiary bank also has a line
of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta that allows for secured borrowings.
Interest Rate Sensitivity
In conjunction with maintaining a satisfactory level of liquidity, management must also
control the degree of interest rate risk assumed on the balance sheet. Managing this risk involves
regular monitoring of interest sensitive assets relative to interest sensitive liabilities over
specific time intervals. The Company monitors its interest rate sensitivity periodically and makes
adjustments as needed. There are no off balance sheet items that will impair future liquidity.
As of March 31, 2009, the Company had a cumulative Gap Rate Sensitivity Ratio of (3.97%) for
the one year repricing period. This generally indicates that earnings would decrease in an
increasing interest rate environment as liabilities reprice more quickly than assets. However, in
actual practice, this may not be the case as loans tied to the prime rate of interest will reprice
immediately with an increase in short term market rates, while deposit rates will remain stable
until competitive market conditions dictate the necessity for an increase in rates. Management
constantly monitors the Companys interest rate risk and has decided the current position is
acceptable for a well-capitalized community bank.
A summary of asset and liability repricing opportunities is shown in Table II, on page 17.
Stock Repurchase
On September 18, 2008, the Companys Board of Directors approved an increase in the number of
shares of common stock that the Company can repurchase under the share repurchase program from
150,000 to 200,000 shares. Shares repurchased through March 31, 2009 total 164,132; of this amount,
2,122 shares were repurchased in 2009, at an average cost of $25.58 per share.
Effect of Newly Issued Accounting Standards
The Company does not believe that any newly issued but as yet unapplied accounting standards
will have a material impact on the Companys financial position or operations.
Existence of Securities and Exchange Commission Web Site
The Securities and Exchange Commission maintains a Web site that contains reports, proxy and
information statements and other information regarding registrants that file electronically with
the Commission, including F & M Bank Corp. and the address is (http: //www.sec.gov).

Item 4T. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As a result of the enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, issuers such as F & M Bank
Corp. that file periodic reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Act) are required
to include in those reports certain information concerning the issuers controls and procedures for
complying with the disclosure requirements of the federal securities laws. These 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 it files or submits under the
Act, is communicated to the issuers management, including its principal executive officer or
officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as
appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
We have established our disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information
related to the Company is made known to our principal executive officers and principal financial
officer on a regular basis, in particular during the periods in which our quarterly and annual
reports are being prepared. These disclosure controls and procedures consist principally of
communications between and among the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, and
the other executive officers of the Company and its subsidiaries to identify any new transactions,
events, trends, contingencies or other matters that may be material to the Companys operations.
As required, we will evaluate the effectiveness of these disclosure controls and procedures on a
quarterly basis, and most recently did so as of the end of the period covered by this report.
The Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, based on their evaluation
as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report of the Companys disclosure controls
and procedures (as defined in Rule 13(a)-14(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), have
concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are adequate and effective for
purposes of Rule 13(a)-14(e) and timely, alerting them to financial information relating to the
Company required to be included in the Companys filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Changes in Internal Controls
Due to the nature of the Companys business as stewards of assets of customers; internal
controls are of the utmost importance. The Company has established procedures during the normal
course of business to reasonably ensure that fraudulent activity of either a material amount to
these results or in any amount is not occurring. In addition to these controls and review by
executive officers, the Company retains the services of an internal auditor to complete regular
audits, which examine the processes and procedures of the Company and the Bank to ensure that these
processes are reasonably effective to prevent internal or external fraud and that the processes
comply with relevant regulatory guidelines of all relevant banking authorities. The findings of the
internal auditor are presented to management of the Bank and to the Audit Committee of the Company.
