The Firm Securities and the Optional Securities that the Underwriters elect to purchase pursuant to Section 2 hereof are collectively called the “Securities.”

1. Representations and Warranties.

The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with each of the several Underwriters as of the date hereof and as of each “Delivery Date” (as defined below in Section 4) that:

(a) In connection with the transactions contemplated by this Underwriting Agreement (the “Agreement”), a registration statement on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-134562) and a

related preliminary prospectus with respect to the Securities has been prepared by the Company in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) in the form heretofore delivered to you. Such registration statement, as amended, has been declared effective by the Commission; no other document with respect to such registration statement has heretofore been filed with the Commission; and no stop order suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement has been issued and no proceeding for that purpose has been instituted or threatened by the Commission.

For the purposes of this Agreement, any preliminary prospectus included in such registration statement or filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(a) under the Securities Act is hereinafter referred to as a “Preliminary Prospectus”; the various parts of such registration statement, including all exhibits thereto and including the information contained in the form of a final prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act in accordance with Section 5(a) of this Agreement and deemed by virtue of Rule 430A under the Securities Act to be a part of the registration statement at the time it was declared effective, each as amended at the time such part became effective, are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Registration Statement” and the final prospectus, in the form first filed pursuant to Rule 424(b), is hereinafter referred to as the “Prospectus”; the term “free writing prospectus” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act; and the term “Time of Sale Prospectus” means the Preliminary Prospectus together with the free writing prospectuses, if any, each identified in Schedule II hereto. As used herein, the terms “Registration Statement,” “Preliminary Prospectus,” “Time of Sale Prospectus” and “Prospectus” shall include the documents, if any, incorporated by reference therein. The terms “supplement,” “amendment” and “amend” as used herein with respect to the Time of Sale Prospectus or any free writing prospectus shall include all documents subsequently filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that are incorporated by reference therein. If the Company has filed an abbreviated registration statement to register additional shares of Common Stock pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act (the “Rule 462 Registration Statement”), then any reference herein to the term “Registration Statement” shall be deemed to include such Rule 462 Registration Statement.

(b) No order preventing or suspending the use of any Preliminary Prospectus or the Time of Sale Prospectus has been issued by the Commission; each Preliminary Prospectus, at the time of filing thereof, and the Time of Sale Prospectus, at the time of each sale of any of the Securities in connection with the offering when the Prospectus is not yet available to prospective purchasers and at each Delivery Date, conformed in all material respects to the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder; and each Preliminary Prospectus did not, and at the time of each sale of any of the Securities in connection with the offering when the Prospectus is not yet available to prospective purchasers and at each Delivery Date, the Time of Sale Prospectus, as then amended or supplemented by the Company, if applicable, will not, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, this representation and warranty shall not apply to any statements or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of any Underwriter through you expressly for use therein.

(xi) The Company has filed a listing of additional shares and all required supporting documents with respect to the Securities with the Nasdaq Stock Market Inc., and such counsel received no information stating that the Securities will not be authorized for listing, subject to official notice of issuance and evidence of satisfactory distribution.

14

In rendering such opinions, such counsel may rely as to matters of fact, to the extent deemed proper, on certificates of responsible officers of the Company, the Bank and MIG, and public officials. On each Delivery Date, Williams Mullen shall also deliver a letter to you stating that nothing has come to their attention which leads them to believe that, as of the effective date of the Registration Statement and as of each Delivery Date, the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus or the Prospectus or, as of its date, any further amendment or supplement thereto made by the Company prior to the Delivery Date (in each case, other than the financial statements and the related schedules and other financial and statistical information included therein, as to which such counsel need not address) contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. With respect to such statement, such counsel may state that their belief is based upon the procedures set forth therein, but is without independent check or verification.

(d) At 10:00 a.m., Richmond, Virginia time, on the date of this Agreement and also at each Delivery Date, Yount, Hyde & Barbour, P.C. shall have furnished to you a letter or letters, dated the respective dates of delivery thereof, in form and substance satisfactory to you, to the effect set forth in Schedule III hereto.

(e) (i) The Company, the Bank or MIG shall not have sustained since the date of the latest audited financial statements included in the Prospectus, any material loss or interference with their respective businesses from fire, explosion, flood or other calamity, whether or not covered by insurance, or from any labor dispute or court or governmental action, order or decree, otherwise than as set forth or expressly contemplated in the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus, and (ii) since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Prospectus there shall not have been any change in the capital stock or long-term debt of the Company, the Bank or MIG or any change, or any development involving a prospective change, in or affecting the general affairs, management, financial position, stockholders’ equity or results of operation of the Company, the Bank or MIG taken as a whole otherwise than as set forth or contemplated in the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus, the effect of which, in any such case described in clause (i) or (ii), is in your judgment so material and adverse as to make it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or the delivery of the Securities being issued at such Delivery Date on the terms and in the manner contemplated by the Prospectus.

(f) On or after the date hereof there shall not have occurred any of the following: (i) a suspension or material limitation in trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Capital Market; (ii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities in New York or Virginia declared by federal or state authorities; (iii) the outbreak or escalation of hostilities involving the United States or the declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war, if any such event specified in this clause (iii) would have such a materially adverse effect, in your judgment, as to make it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or the delivery of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus; or (iv) such a material adverse change in general economic, political, financial or international conditions affecting financial markets in the United

15

States having a material adverse impact on trading prices of securities in general, as, in your judgment, makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus.

(g) The Company shall have furnished or caused to be furnished to you copies of agreements between the Company and each of the executive officers and directors of the Company specified by you, in form and content satisfactory to you, pursuant to which such persons agree not to offer, sell, or contract to sell, or otherwise dispose of, any shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by them, including any shares of Common Stock acquired in the Offering, or any securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, Common Stock on or before the 90th day after the date of this Agreement without your prior written consent.

(h) The Company shall have furnished or caused to be furnished to you on the date of this Agreement and on the Delivery Date certificates of officers of the Company satisfactory to you as to the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company herein at and as of the date hereof and the Delivery Date, as to the performance by the Company of all of its obligations hereunder to be performed at or prior to the Delivery Date, as to the matters set forth in subsections (a) and (e) of this Section 7 and as to such other matters as you may reasonably request.

(i) The Common Stock shall have been approved for trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

If any of the conditions specified in this Section 7 shall not have been fulfilled in all material respects when and as provided in this Agreement, or if any of the opinions and certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this Agreement shall not be in all material respects reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Representative and its counsel, this Agreement and all obligations of the Underwriters hereunder may be canceled at, or at any time prior to, the Closing Date by the Representative. Notice of such cancellation shall be given to the Company in writing or by telephone or facsimile (with written confirmation of receipt).

8. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Underwriter may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any breach of any representation, warranty, agreement or covenant of the Company herein contained or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse each Underwriter for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or

16

defending, or appearing as a third party witness in connection with, any such action or claims as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by you expressly for use therein.

(b) Each Underwriter severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company against any losses, claims damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in any Preliminary Prospectus, Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus or Prospectus or any such amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Underwriter through you expressly for use therein; and will reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending, or appearing as a third party witness in connection with, any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred. The Company acknowledges that for purposes of this Section 8 the statements set forth under the heading “Underwriting” in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus constitute the only information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the several Underwriters for inclusion in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus or the Prospectus, and you confirm that such statements are correct.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under such subsection, unless and to the extent that such indemnifying party did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, that if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have been advised by counsel that representation of such indemnified party and the indemnifying party would present such counsel with a conflict of

17

interest under applicable standards of professional conduct due to actual or potential differing interests between them, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to defend such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall, in connection with any such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of only one separate firm or attorneys together with appropriate local counsel at any time for all indemnified parties not having actual or potential differing interests with any indemnified party. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to appoint counsel to defend such action and approval by the indemnified party of such counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable for any settlement entered into without its consent and will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the next preceding sentence, (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action or (iii) the indemnifying party has authorized in writing the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party; and except that, if clause (i) or (iii) is applicable, such liability shall be only in respect of the counsel referred to in such clause (i) or (iii). Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence and the third preceding sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Securities. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total underwriting discounts received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the

18

cover page of the Prospectus. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this subsection (d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), (i) the provisions of the Agreement Among Underwriters shall govern contribution among the Underwriters, and (ii) no Underwriter (except as provided in the Agreement Among Underwriters) shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations under this subsection (d) are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint.

(e) The obligations of the Company under this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each officer, director, employee and agent of the Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act; and the obligations of the Underwriters under this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liability which the respective Underwriters may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each officer and director of the Company and to each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act.

9. Substitution of Underwriters.

(a) If any of the Underwriters fail (other than for a reason sufficient to justify the termination of this Agreement) to purchase on the Delivery Date the Securities agreed to be purchased on such Delivery Date by such Underwriter, the remaining Underwriters may find one or more substitute underwriters to purchase such Securities or make such other arrangements as the remaining Underwriters deem advisable or the remaining Underwriters may agree to purchase such Securities upon the terms set forth in this Agreement. If no such arrangements have been made within 36 hours after such Delivery Date, the Company will be entitled to an additional period of 24 hours within which to find one or more substitute underwriters reasonably satisfactory to the remaining Underwriters to purchase such Securities on the terms set forth in this Agreement.

19

(b) In any such case, the remaining Underwriters or the Company will have the right to postpone the Delivery Date for not more than five business days in order that necessary changes and arrangements (including any necessary amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or Prospectus) may be effected by the remaining Underwriters and the Company. If neither the nondefaulting Underwriters nor the Company makes arrangements pursuant to this Section 9 within the period stated for the purchase of the Securities that the defaulting Underwriters agreed to purchase, this Agreement will terminate without liability on the part of the nondefaulting Underwriters to the Company and without liability on the part of the Company, except in both cases, as provided in Sections 5, 8 and 11. This Section 9 will not affect the liability of the defaulting Underwriters to the Company or the nondefaulting Underwriters arising out of such default. A substitute underwriter will become an Underwriter for all purposes of this Agreement.

10. Representations and Warranties to Survive.

The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company and the several Underwriters, as set forth in this Agreement or made by them, respectively, pursuant to this Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement or any investigation (or any statement as to the results thereof) made by or on behalf of the Underwriters or any controlling person of any Underwriter, or the Company, or any officer or director or controlling person of the Company, and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Securities.

11. Termination and Payment of Expenses.

(a) This Agreement shall be subject to termination in your absolute discretion, by notice given to the Company prior to the delivery of any payment for the Securities, if prior to such time there shall have occurred any of the following: (i) a suspension or material limitation in trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Capital Market; (ii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities in New York or Virginia declared by federal or state authorities; (iii) the outbreak or escalation of hostilities involving the United States or the declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war, if any such event specified in this clause (iii) would have such a materially adverse effect, in your judgment, as to make it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or the delivery of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Time of Sale Prospectus or the Prospectus; or (iv) such a material adverse change in general economic, political, financial or international conditions affecting financial markets in the United States having a material adverse impact on trading prices of securities in general, as, in your judgment, makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Time of Sale Prospectus or the Prospectus.

(b) If this Agreement shall be terminated pursuant to this Section 11, the Company shall not then be under any liability to any Underwriter except as provided in Section 6 and Section 8 hereof; but if for any other reason the sale of the Securities provided for herein is not

20

consummated because any condition to the obligations of the Underwriters set forth in Section 7 hereof is not satisfied, because of any termination pursuant to this Section 11 or because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Company to perform any agreements herein or comply with the provisions hereof other than by reason of a default by any of the Underwriters, the Company will be responsible for and will reimburse the Underwriters upon demand for all out-of-pocket expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel, reasonably incurred by the Underwriters in connection with the proposed purchase, sale and delivery of the Securities. Nothing in this Section 11 shall be deemed to relieve the Underwriters of their liability, if any, to the Company for damages occasioned by their default hereunder.

12. Notices.

In all dealings hereunder, you shall act on behalf of each of the Underwriters, and the parties hereto shall be entitled to act and rely upon any statement, request, notice or agreement on behalf of any Underwriter made or given by you. All statements, requests, notices and agreements hereunder shall be in writing, and if to the Underwriters shall be sufficient in all respects if delivered or sent by mail or facsimile (with written confirmation of receipt) to Scott & Stringfellow, Inc., 909 East Main Street, Richmond, Virginia 23219, Attention: Financial Institutions Group; and if to the Company shall be sufficient in all respects if delivered or sent by mail or facsimile (with written confirmation of receipt) to the address of the Company set forth in the Prospectus, Attention: Joseph L. Bolling, Chief Executive Officer. Any such statements, requests, notices or agreements shall take effect upon receipt thereof provided, however, that any notice to any Underwriter pursuant to this Section 12 hereof shall be delivered or sent by mail or facsimile to such Underwriter, which will be supplied to the Company by you upon request.

13. Successors.

This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure solely to the benefit of, the Underwriters and the Company and, to the extent provided in Sections 8 and 10 hereof, the officers and directors of the Company, the officers and directors, employees and agents of any Underwriter and each person who controls the Company or any Underwriter, and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, and no other person shall acquire or have any right under or by virtue of this Agreement. No purchaser of any of the Securities from any Underwriter shall be deemed a successor or assign by reason merely of such purchase.

14. Time of the Essence.

Time shall be of the essence in this Agreement.

15. Business Day.

As used herein, the term “business day” shall mean any day when the Commission’s office in Washington, D.C. is open for business.

21

16. Applicable Law.

This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed in such state.

17. Captions.

The captions included in this Agreement are included solely for convenience of reference and shall not be deemed to be a part of this Agreement.

18. Research Analyst Independence.

The Company acknowledges that the Underwriters’ research analysts and research departments are required to be independent from their respective investment banking divisions and are subject to certain regulations and internal policies, and that such Underwriters’ research analysts may hold views and make statements or investment recommendations and/or publish reports with respect to the Company and/or the offering that differ from the views of their respective investment banking divisions. The Company hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Company may have against the Underwriters with respect to any conflict of interest that may arise from the fact that the views expressed by their independent research analysts and research departments may be different from or inconsistent with the views or advice communicated to the Company by such Underwriters’ investment banking divisions. The Company acknowledges that each of the Underwriters is a full service securities firm and as such from time to time, subject to applicable securities laws, may effect transactions for its own account or the account of its customers and hold long or short positions in debt or equity securities of the companies that may be the subject of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

19. Counterparts.

This Agreement may be executed by any one or more of the parties in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

20. Partial Unenforceability.

The invalidity or unenforceability of any Section, paragraph or provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other Section, paragraph or provision hereof. If any Section, paragraph or provision of this Agreement is for any reason determined to be invalid or unenforceable, there shall be deemed to be made such minor changes (and only such minor changes) as are necessary to make it valid and enforceable.

22

If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding, please sign and return to us two counterparts hereof, and upon the acceptance hereof by you, this letter and such acceptance hereof shall constitute a binding agreement among each of the Underwriters and the Company. It is understood that your acceptance of this Agreement on behalf of each of the Underwriters is pursuant to the authority set forth in a form of Agreement Among Underwriters, the form of which will be submitted to the Company for examination, upon request, but without warranty on your part as to the authority of the signers thereof.

SCHEDULE III

Pursuant to Section 7(d) of the Underwriting Agreement, Yount, Hyde & Barbour, P.C. shall furnish letters to the Representatives to the effect that:

1. They are independent public accountants with respect to the Company and its subsidiary within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the applicable published rules and regulations thereunder;

2. In their opinion, the consolidated audited financial statements audited by them and included in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as applicable, and the related published rules and regulations thereunder;

3. On the basis of limited procedures, not constituting an examination in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, consisting of a reading of the latest unaudited financial statements made available by the Company, inspection of the minute books of the Company and the Bank since the date of the latest audited financial statements included in the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus, inquiries of officials of the Company and the Bank responsible for financial and accounting matters and such other inquiries and procedures as may be specified in such letter, nothing came to their attention that caused them to believe that:

(A) the unaudited consolidated financial statements included in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus do not comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Securities Act and published rules and regulations thereunder or are not presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis substantially consistent with that of the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus;

(B) (i) as of a specified date not more than five calendar days prior to the date of delivery of such letter, there have been any changes in the capital stock, short-term debt or long-term debt of the Company, or any decreases in consolidated total assets or stockholders’ equity as compared with amounts shown on the most recent consolidated balance sheet included in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus, and (ii) for the period from the date of the most recent consolidated financial statements included in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus to such specified date there were any decreases in consolidated net interest income or the total or per share amounts of net income as compared with the corresponding period in the preceding year, except in each case for increases or decreases which the Prospectus discloses have occurred or may occur or which are described in such letter; and

4. In addition to the audit referenced in their report included in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus and the limited procedures, inspection of minute books, inquiries and other procedures referred to above, they have carried out certain specified procedures, not constituting an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, with respect to certain amounts, percentages and financial information which are derived from the general accounting records of the Company and the Bank, which appear in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus, or in Part II of, or in exhibits and schedules to, the Registration Statement specified by the Representative, and have compared certain of such amounts, percentages and financial information with the accounting records of the Company and have found them to be in agreement.
