Part I
Item 1. Business
The Company
First National Corporation (the "Company") was organized on September
7, 1983 as a Virginia corporation for the purpose of acquiring all of the
outstanding common stock of the First National Bank of Strasburg (effective June
1, 1994, name changed to First Bank) (the "Bank") in connection with the
reorganization of the Bank into a one bank holding company structure. At the
effective date of the reorganization, the Bank merged into a newly-formed
national bank organized as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, with each
outstanding share of common stock of the Bank being converted into one share of
common stock of the Company. The primary activity of the Company is the
ownership and operation of the Bank.
The Bank
The Bank is currently organized as a state chartered bank under the
laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. It commenced operations on July 1, 1907 as
The Peoples National Bank of Strasburg. On January 10, 1928 the Bank changed its
name to the First National Bank of Strasburg and moved into its current
headquarters location in Strasburg.
On July 8, 1985, the Bank's first branch was opened in the town of
Front Royal, Virginia. The second branch was opened on July 26, 1985 in the City
of Winchester, Virginia. The Bank purchased a branch in Frederick County,
Virginia from First Union National Bank of Virginia on March 31, 1994. The Bank
opened this former First Union branch as a full service office on July 1, 1994.
A fourth branch was constructed in the town of Woodstock, Virginia and opened
for business on May 30, 1995. During 1998, two additional office locations were
opened. The Bank leased office space for a Loan Production Office in downtown
Winchester, Virginia, which opened on March 18, 1998. Additionally, a new
full-service branch facility was purchased on the north side of Winchester,
Virginia. This location was opened for business on December 19, 1998. The Bank
opened a sixth branch on June 28, 1999 with the lease of a former Regional Bank
branch office in Woodstock, Virginia.
On April 12, 1994, the Bank received approval from the Federal Reserve
Bank of Richmond (the "Federal Reserve") and the Virginia State Corporation
Commission's Bureau of Financial Institutions (the "SCC") to convert to a state
chartered bank with membership in the Federal Reserve System. The Bank was given
one year from approval to convert. On June 1, 1994, the Bank consummated such
conversion and changed its name to First Bank.
In April 1994, the Bank formed a subsidiary, First Bank Financial
Services, Inc. ("Financial Services"), for the purpose of investing in Bankers
Title of Fredericksburg, LLC, a title insurance company formed by a group of
community banks in Virginia. This company underwrites title insurance which is
sold through the banks which own the company to their customers.
Banking Services
As a full-service commercial bank, the Bank provides a wide range of
deposit, loan and other general banking services to individuals, businesses,
institutions and government entities. The Bank's deposit services for
individuals include checking, statement savings, NOW accounts, money market
accounts, IRA deposits, certificates of deposit, Christmas club accounts, direct
deposit programs, a club account, life-line checking accounts and investment
savings accounts. Loan services to individuals include personal and installment
loans (including automobile and property improvement loans), residential
mortgages, adjustable rate mortgages, bi-weekly mortgages, home equity loans,
and MasterCard and Visa credit cards. The Bank also offers consumers other
general banking services, such as safe deposit facilities,
2
<PAGE>
travelers checks and collections, and acts as agent for the purchase and
redemption of United States Savings Bonds. In addition, the Bank offers
corporate and business services, including regular business checking, corporate
savings, certificates of deposit, commercial and small business loans, and
on-line wire transfer services. The Bank also offers Commercial mortgages.
During 1999 the bank began to offer equipment leasing services and a wider array
of mortgage products. In 2000 the bank will introduce an on-line banking package
including bill-payer to be fully integrated with our enhanced website
(www.firstbank-va.com).
Location and Service
The Bank serves the areas of Shenandoah, Frederick, Warren and Clarke
Counties and the City of Winchester in Virginia. The Bank solicits business from
individuals and small to medium-sized businesses, including retail shops and
professional service businesses, residing in this service area.
The Bank has offices at the following locations:

Competition
The Bank is subject to intense competition from various financial
institutions and other companies or firms that offer financial services. In its
market area, the Company is and will be competing with several state-wide and
regional banking institutions. The Bank competes for deposits with other
commercial banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions and with issuers
of commercial paper and securities, such as money market and mutual funds. In
making loans, the Bank competes with other commercial banks, savings and loan
associations, consumer finance companies, credit unions, leasing companies and
other lenders.
Federal and state legislative changes since 1982 have significantly
increased competition among financial institutions, and current trends toward
further deregulation may be expected to increase such competition even further.
Many of the financial organizations in competition with the Company have greater
financial resources than the Company and are able to offer similar services at
varying costs with greater loan capacities. Of all the banks in our marketplace,
the Bank is one of a few that serves the area exclusively as an independent,
community bank. This enables it to identify and meet customer needs efficiently
and enhance its competitiveness in the marketplace. The Bank's history, dating
back to 1907, also allows it to compete from a position of strength and
stability.
Asset and Liability Management
Assets of the Bank consist primarily of loans and its investment
portfolio. Deposit accounts, including checking accounts and interest-bearing
accounts, time deposits and certificates of deposit, represent the majority of
the liabilities of the Bank. In an effort to maintain adequate levels of
liquidity and
3
<PAGE>
minimize fluctuations in the net interest margin (the difference between
interest income and interest expense), the rate sensitivity of the loan and
investment portfolios are similar to the rate sensitivity of the Bank's
liabilities.
The Bank invests the majority of its investment portfolio in highly
marketable short-term assets, such as federal funds and issues of the United
States government and its agencies. By pricing loans on a variable rate
structure, or by keeping the maturity of the investment and loan portfolios
relatively short- term, the Bank is able to maintain loan interest or to
reinvest securities proceeds at prevailing market rates, thereby helping to
maintain a generally consistent spread over the interest rates paid by the Bank
on the deposits which are used to fund the investment and loan portfolios.
Lending Activities
The Bank is an active lender with a loan portfolio that includes
commercial and residential mortgages, real estate construction loans, commercial
loans, and consumer loans. The Company's lending activity extends to individuals
and small and medium-sized businesses within its primary service area.
Consistent with its focus on providing community-based financial services, the
Bank does not attempt to diversify its loan portfolio geographically by making
significant amounts of loans to borrowers outside of its primary service area.
The principal economic risk associated with each of the categories of
loans in the portfolio is the credit worthiness of its borrowers. Within each
category, such risk is increased or decreased depending on prevailing economic
conditions. In an effort to manage this risk, it is the Bank's policy to give
loan amount approval limits to individual loan officers based on their level of
experience. The risk associated with the real estate mortgage loans and
installment loans to individuals varies based upon employment levels, consumer
confidence, fluctuations in value of residential real estate and other
conditions that affect the ability of consumers to repay indebtedness. The risk
associated with commercial, financial and agricultural loans varies based upon
the strength and activity of the local economies of the Bank's market area. The
risk associated with real estate construction loans varies based upon the supply
and demand for the type of real estate under construction. Most of the Bank's
real estate construction loans are for pre-sold or contract homes.
Residential Mortgage Lending. Residential mortgage loans are made in
amounts up to 80% (95% with Mortgage Guaranty Insurance) of the appraised value
of the security property. Residential mortgage loans are underwritten using
qualification guidelines. The Bank requires that the borrower obtain title, fire
and casualty coverage in an amount equal to the loan amount and in a form
acceptable to the Bank.
The Bank charges origination fees on its residential mortgage loans.
These fees vary among loan products and with market conditions. Generally such
fees amount to 1.0% to 2.125% of the loan principal amount. In addition, the
Bank charges fees to its borrowers to cover the cost of appraisals, credit
reports and certain expenses related to the documentation and closing of loans.
Real Estate Construction Loans. The Bank does originate construction
loans on income-producing properties such as apartments, shopping centers,
hotels and office buildings. These loans are carefully underwritten with
emphasis placed on the project income, as well as, the borrowers and guarantors
ability to repay from outside sources. The Bank also makes construction loans
for residential purposes. These loans are primarily used for construction of
owner-occupied pre-sold residential homes and are considered an attractive type
of lending due to their short-term maturities and high yields. The Bank does not
participate in any "speculative lending" which relies on market demand after
construction.
Construction lending entails significant additional risk as compared
with commercial and residential mortgage lending. Construction loans typically
involve larger loan balances concentrated with single borrowers or groups of
related borrowers. Construction loans involve additional risks attributable to
the fact that loan funds are advanced upon the security of the home under
construction, which is of
4
<PAGE>
uncertain value prior to the completion of construction. Thus, it is more
difficult to evaluate accurately the total loan funds required to complete a
project and related loan-to-value ratios. To minimize risks associated with
construction lending, the Bank limits loan amounts to 80% of appraised value on
pre-sold homes in addition to its usual credit analysis of its borrowers. The
Bank also obtains a first lien on the security property as security for its
construction loans.
Commercial Real Estate Lending. The Bank provides permanent mortgage
financing for a variety of commercial projects. These loans are written with
maturities generally within one and five years and are made predominantly on an
adjustable rate basis. The Bank attempts to concentrate its commercial real
estate lending efforts into owner-occupied projects. However, from time to time,
in the normal course of business, the Bank will provide a limited amount of
financing for income producing, non-owner occupied projects which meet all of
the guidelines established by loan policy.
Commercial Loans. As a full-service community bank, the Bank makes
loans to qualified small businesses in its service area. Commercial business
loans generally have a higher degree of risk than commercial and residential
mortgage but have commensurately higher yields. To manage these risks, the Bank
secures appropriate collateral and carefully monitors the financial condition of
its business borrowers. Commercial business loans typically are made on the
basis of the borrower's ability to make repayment from the cash flow of its
business and are either unsecured or secured by business assets, such as
accounts receivable, equipment and inventory. As a result, the availability of
funds for the repayment of commercial business loans may be substantially
dependent on the success of the business itself. Further, the collateral for
secured commercial business loans may depreciate over time and cannot be
appraised with as much precision as real estate.
Consumer Loans. The Bank currently offers most types of consumer
demand, time and installment loans including automobile loans and home equity
lines of credit. The risk associated with installment loans to individuals
varies based upon employment levels, consumer confidence, and other conditions
that affect the ability of consumers to repay indebtedness.
Employees
At December 31, 1999, a total of 89 persons were employed by the
Company and the Bank and 83 of these persons are employed full time. None are
represented by any collective bargaining unit. The Company considers relations
with its employees to be good.
Supervision and Regulation
General. As a bank holding company registered under the Bank Holding
Company Act of 1956 (the "BHCA"), the Company is subject to the supervision and
examination of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and is
required to file with the Federal Reserve such reports and other information as
the Federal Reserve may require. The Bank was supervised and regularly examined
by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, but upon its conversion to a
state chartered bank on June 1, 1994, became subject to the oversight of the
Federal Reserve and the Bureau of Financial Institutions of the SCC. The various
laws and regulations administered by the regulatory agencies affect corporate
practices, such as dividend payments, incurring debt, acquisition of financial
institutions and other companies, and types of business conducted.
Bank Holding Company Regulation. Under Federal Reserve policy, a bank
holding company is expected to act as a source of financial strength to each of
its subsidiary banks and to commit resources to support such banks in
circumstances where it might not do so absent such policy. The BHCA requires a
bank holding company to obtain Federal Reserve approval before it acquires,
directly or indirectly, ownership or control of any voting shares of a bank or
bank holding company if, after such acquisition, it would own or control more
than 5% of such shares (unless it already owns or controls a majority of such
voting shares). Federal Reserve approval also must be obtained before a bank
holding company acquires
5
<PAGE>
all or substantially all of the assets of another bank
or bank holding company or merges or consolidates with another bank holding
company. In addition to the approval of the Federal Reserve, before any bank
acquisition can be completed, prior approval thereof must be obtained from each
other banking agency which has supervisory jurisdiction over the bank to be
acquired.
The BHCA also prohibits a bank holding company, with certain limited
exceptions, from acquiring or retaining direct or indirect ownership or control
of more than 5% of the voting shares of any company which is not a bank, or from
engaging in any activities other than those of banking or of managing or
controlling banks or furnishing services to or performing services for its
subsidiaries. The principal exceptions to these prohibitions permit a bank
holding company to engage in, or acquire an interest in a company that engages
in activities which, after due notice and opportunity for hearing, the Federal
Reserve by regulation or order has determined are so closely related to banking
or of managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto.
The subsidiary banks of a bank holding company are subject to certain
restrictions imposed by the Federal Reserve Act on any extensions of credit to
the bank holding company or any of its subsidiaries, or investments in the stock
or other securities thereof, and on the taking of such stocks or securities as
collateral for loans. The Federal Reserve possesses cease and desist powers over
bank holding companies if their actions represent unsafe or unsound practices or
violations of law.
A bank holding company may not, without providing prior notice to the
Federal Reserve, purchase or redeem its own stock if after the transaction the
company is no longer classified as "well-capitalized."
The Company is also subject to certain provisions of Virginia law that
affect the ability of a bank holding company to acquire another financial
institution based in Virginia. Under certain amendments to the Virginia
Financial Institutions Holding Company Act that became effective July 1, 1983,
no corporation, partnership or other business entity may acquire, or make any
public offer to acquire, more than 5% of the stock of any Virginia financial
institution or any Virginia financial institution holding company, unless it
shall first file an application with the Virginia State Corporation Commission
(the "SCC"). The SCC is directed by the statute to solicit the views of the
affected financial institution, or financial institution holding company, with
respect to such stock acquisition, and is empowered to conduct an investigation
during the 60 days following receipt of such an application. If the SCC takes no
action within the prescribed period, or if during the prescribed period it
issues notice of its intent not to disapprove an application, the acquisition
may be completed. The SCC may disapprove an application subject to such
conditions as it may deem advisable.
The Bank. As stated earlier in this item under "The Bank," the Bank
received approval from the Federal Reserve and the SCC and converted to a state
chartered bank, organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, with
membership in the Federal Reserve System. The Bank is now supervised and
regularly examined by the Federal Reserve and the SCC and is subject to the laws
and regulations administered by those regulatory authorities.
Limits on Dividends and Other Payments. The Company is a legal entity
separate and distinct from the Bank. Most of the Company's revenues result from
dividends paid to the Company by the Bank. The right of the Company, and
consequently the right of creditors and shareholders of the Company, to
participate in any distribution of the assets or earnings of the Bank through
the payment of such dividends or otherwise is necessarily subject to the prior
claims of creditors of the Bank, except to the extent that claims of the Company
in its capacity as a creditor may be recognized.
The amount of dividends payable by the Bank to the Company depends upon
the Bank's earnings and capital position, and is limited by federal and state
law, regulations and policies.
6
<PAGE>
As a state member bank subject to the regulations of the Federal
Reserve Board, the Bank has to obtain the approval of the Federal Reserve Board
for any dividend if the total of all dividends declared in any calendar year
would exceed the total of its net profits, as defined by the Federal Reserve
Board, for that year, combined with its retained net profits for the preceding
two years. In addition, the Bank may not pay a dividend in an amount greater
than its undivided profits then on hand after deducting its losses and bad
debts. For this purpose, bad debts are generally defined to include the
principal amount of loans which are in arrears with respect to interest by six
months or more unless such loans are fully secured and in the process of
collection. Moreover, for purposes of this limitation, the Bank is not permitted
to add the balance in its allowance for loan losses account to its undivided
profits then on hand; however, it may net the sum of its bad debts as so defined
in excess of that account. At December 31, 1999, the Bank had $3.8 million of
retained earnings legally available for the payment of dividends.
In addition, the Federal Reserve is authorized to determine under
certain circumstances relating to the financial condition of a national bank, a
state member bank or a bank holding company that the payment of dividends would
be an unsafe or unsound practice and to prohibit payment thereof. The payment of
dividends that deplete a bank's capital base could be deemed to constitute such
an unsafe or unsound practice. The Federal Reserve has indicated that banking
organizations should generally pay dividends only out of current operating
earnings.
Borrowings by the Company. There are various legal restrictions on the
extent to which the Company can Borrow or otherwise obtain credit from the Bank.
In general, these restrictions require that any such extensions of credit must
be secured by designated amounts of specified collateral and are limited, as to
the Company, to 10 percent of the Bank's capital stock and surplus, and as to
the Company and any nonbanking subsidiaries in the aggregate, to 20 percent of
the Bank's capital stock and surplus. Federal law also requires that
transactions between the Bank and the Company or any nonbanking subsidiaries,
including extensions of credit, sales of securities or assets and the provision
of services, be conducted on terms at least as favorable to the bank as those
that apply or would apply to comparable transactions with unaffiliated parties.
Capital Requirements
Year Ended
December 31,
1999
Required Capital Ratios:
Leverage Ratio 4.00%
Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio 4.00
Total risk-based capital ratio 8.00
The Company Capital Ratios:
Leverage Ratio 8.9%
Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio 12.7
Total risk-based capital ratio 13.7
In January 1989, the Federal Reserve Board published risk-based capital
guidelines in final form which are applicable to bank holding companies. The
Federal Reserve Board guidelines redefine the components of capital, categorize
assets into different risk classes and include certain off-balance sheet items
in the calculation of risk-weighted assets. These guidelines became effective on
March 15, 1989. The minimum ratio of qualified total capital to risk-weighted
assets (including certain off balance sheet items, such as standby letters of
credit) is 8.00%. At least half of the total capital must be comprised of common
equity, retained earnings and a limited amount of permanent preferred stock,
less goodwill ("Tier
7
<PAGE>
1 capital"). The remainder ("Tier 2 capital") may consist of a limited amount of
subordinated debt, other preferred stock, certain other instruments and a
limited amount of loan and lease losses reserves. The Company's Tier 1 and total
Capital ratios as of December 31, 1999 were 12.7% and 13.7%, respectively.
In addition, the Federal Reserve Board has established minimum Leverage
ratio (Tier 1 capital to quarterly average assets less goodwill) guidelines for
bank holding companies. These guidelines provide for a minimum ratio of 3.00%
for bank holding companies that meet certain specific criteria, including that
they have the highest regulatory rating. All other bank holding companies will
be required to maintain a Leverage ratio of 3.00% plus an additional cushion of
at least 100 to 200 basis points. The Company's Leverage ratio as of December
31, 1999 was 8.9%. The guidelines also provide that a banking organization
experiencing internal growth or making acquisitions will be expected to maintain
strong capital positions substantially above the minimum supervisory levels,
without significant reliance on intangible assets.
Under Federal Reserve Board policy, a bank holding company is required
to serve as a source of financial and managerial strength to its subsidiary
banks and may not conduct its operations in an unsafe or unsound manner. In
addition, it is the Federal Reserve Board's policy that, in serving as a source
of strength to its subsidiary banks, a bank holding company should stand ready
to use available resources to provide adequate capital funds to its subsidiary
banks. This support may be required during periods of financial stress or
adversity or in circumstances where the financial flexibility and
capital-raising capacity of the bank holding company would be called upon to
obtain additional resources for assisting its subsidiary banks. The failure of a
bank holding company to serve as a source of strength to its subsidiary banks
would generally be considered by the Federal Reserve Board to be an unsafe and
unsound banking practice, a violation of Federal Reserve regulations, or both.
FIRREA. In August 1989, Congress enacted the Financial Institutions
Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act ("FIRREA"). Among other things, FIRREA
abolished the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation and established two
new insurance funds under the jurisdiction of the FDIC -- the Savings
Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") and the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF"). The
FDIC will set assessments for deposit insurance annually. The act requires that
the FDIC reach an insurance fund reserve ratio for the BIF of $1.25 for every
$100 of insured deposits within fifteen years. Assessment for the BIF and SAIF
will be set independently.
FIRREA also imposes, with certain exceptions, a "cross-guarantee" on
the part of commonly controlled depository institutions. Under this provision,
if one depository institution subsidiary of a multi- unit holding company fails
or requires FDIC assistance, the FDIC may assess a commonly controlled
depository institution for the estimated losses suffered by the FDIC. While the
FDIC's claim is junior to the claims of non-affiliated depositors, holders of
secured liabilities, general creditors, and subordinated creditors, it is
superior to the claims of shareholders.
In addition, FIRREA grants numerous new or enhanced enforcement powers
over financial institutions and individuals associated with them. Its criminal
and civil liability provisions apply equally to banks and savings and loan
associations and provide for stiffer civil fines and criminal penalties for any
depository institution or any institution affiliated party who engages in or
tolerates bank fraud or other wrongdoing.
FDICIA. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act
("FDICIA") was signed into law on December 19, 1991. Section 131 of FDICIA
requires the federal banking agencies to develop a mechanism to take prompt and
corrective action ("PCA") to resolve the problems of insured depository
institutions ("IDI's"). Capital levels and supervisory concern determine a
bank's PCA capital category.
Section 302 requires the FDIC to establish a risk-based assessment
system. The system is designed as a matrix where each IDI will pay an assessment
rate based on the combination of its capital and supervisory condition.
8
<PAGE>
Section 305 of FDICIA requires incorporating interest rate risk ("IRR")
into the risk-based standard and a measurement system that would identify
institutions with high levels of IRR and ensure that they have sufficient
capital to cover their exposure. The measurement system will quantify IRR
exposure through weighting and risk factors.
Depository institutions are required to establish non-capital standards
for bank safety and soundness. These standards fall into three broad categories:
operations and management standards for internal controls, loan documentation,
and credit underwriting; asset quality, earnings and stock valuation standards;
and executive compensation standards. The failure of a depository institution to
meet these standards will trigger regulatory actions. Section 112 establishes
guidelines for annual independent audit, annual report filings with regulatory
agencies, independent audit reports and procedures, and independent audit
committees.
Section 301 addresses brokered deposits with no restrictions on "well
capitalized" institutions and restrictions based upon the capital threshold of
remaining institutions. Truth in Savings ("TISA") or Regulation DD is intended
to assist consumers in comparing deposit accounts principally through
disclosures of fees, annual percentage yields, interest rates and other terms
associated with interest-bearing deposit accounts. Compliance was mandatory on
June 21, 1993. Section 304 requires a uniform standard for real estate lending
establishing loan-to value ("LTV") ratio guidelines for real estate secured
loans.
FDICIA contains a provision for IDI's to provide supplemental
disclosure of the estimated fair value of assets and liabilities in reports
required to be filed with federal banking agency.
FDICIA establishes various limitations on loans to bank insiders and
prescribes standards that effectively limit the risks posed by an insured bank's
exposure to other insured depository institutions ("Interbank Liabilities").
FDICIA also requires advance notice of a branch closure, the establishment of
incentives to provide life-line accounts to low-income customers and addresses
the frequency and scope of supervisory examinations. Clearly, the ultimate
impact of FDICIA will be profound.
Government Policies and Legislation. The policies of regulatory
authorities, including the Federal Reserve Board and the FDIC, have had a
significant effect on the operating results of commercial banks in the past and
are expected to do so in the future. An important function of the Federal
Reserve is to regulate aggregate bank credit and money through such means as
open market dealings in securities, establishment of the discount rate on member
banks, borrowings, and changes in reserve requirements against member deposits.
Policies at these agencies may be influenced by many factors, including
inflation, unemployment, short-term and long-term changes in the international
trade balance, and fiscal policies of the United States government.
Congress has periodically considered and adopted legislation which has
resulted in, and could result in further, deregulation of both banks and
financial institutions. Such legislation could modify or eliminate geographic
restrictions on banks and bank holding companies and could modify or eliminate
current prohibitions against the Company engaging in one or more non-banking
activities. Such legislative changes also could place the Company in more direct
competition with other financial institutions. No assurance can be given as to
whether any additional legislation will be adopted and as to effect of such
legislation on the business of the Company.
Item 2. Properties
The principal executive offices of First National Corporation are
located at 112 West King Street, Strasburg, Virginia, which is owned free of
encumbrances. In addition to operating a full service banking facility at this
Strasburg location, the Company operates six additional branches and a loan
production office. The Company owns four of these facilities without
encumbrances and leases three of the facilities.
9
<PAGE>
The leases on these facilities including renewal options, expire in 2002. See
Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company's 1999 Annual
Report to Shareholders for additional information concerning this lease
commitment.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
In the ordinary course of its operations, the Company is party to
various legal proceedings. Based on information presently available, and after
consultation with legal counsel, management believes that the ultimate outcome
in such proceedings in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on
the business or the financial condition or results of operations of the Company.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
No matters were submitted to security holders for a vote in the fourth
quarter of 1999.
Part II
Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters
Shares of the common stock of the Company are traded on the
over-the-counter (OTC) market and quoted in the OTC Bulletin Board under the
symbol "FXNC." However, similar to the trading of the Bank's common stock prior
to its reorganization, trading of the Company's common stock is generally the
result of private negotiation. Increasingly, a broker or dealer may be involved.
The Company has a limited record of trades involving its common stock
in the sense of "bid" and "asked" prices or in highs and lows. The effort to
accurately disclose trading prices is made more difficult due to the fact that
price per share information is not required to be disclosed to the Company when
shares of its stock have been sold by holders and purchased by others. The
following table summarizes the high and low sales prices of shares of the
Company's common stock on the basis of trades known to the Company. The Company
may not be aware of the per share price of all trades made.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
The Company is the holding company for the Bank, and Financial Services
is a subsidiary of the Bank. The following discussion and analysis of the
financial condition and results of operations of the Company for the years ended
December 31, 1999,
1998 and 1997 should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and related notes.
Overview
Both earnings and assets grew in 1999. Net income for 1999 was
$2,034,288 compared to $1,904,682 in 1998 and $1,611,322 in 1997. Net income per
share increased $0.14 per share, basic and $0.15 per share, diluted in 1999 from
1998 ($2.57 per share basic and diluted in 1999 versus $2.43 per share basic and
$2.42 per share diluted in 1998). The increase in earnings resulted primarily
from a continuing increase in the Bank's interest income which was greater than
the increase in interest expense. Return on average assets was 1.00% in 1999,
1.05% in 1998 and 1.07% in 1997. Return on average equity was 11.63% in 1999,
11.31% in 1998 and 10.41% in 1997.
Assets grew 16.1% in 1998, but in 1999 management elected to slow the
rate to 8.1%. Growth occurred in the loan portfolio where loans, net of unearned
income and allowance for loan losses, increased $20.9 million to $149.3 million.
The securities portfolio declined $3.1 million to $45.1 million in 1999 after
increasing $6.6 million to $48.3 million in 1998. Funding for the asset growth
was provided, in part, by an increase in long-term debt of $15.2 million.
Results of Operations
Net interest income represents the primary source of earnings for the
Company. Net interest income equals the amount by which interest income on
earning assets, predominately loans and securities, exceeds interest expense on
interest bearing liabilities, predominately deposits, short-term and long-term
borrowings. The provision for loan losses and the amount of noninterest income
and expense also have an effect on net income. Non-interest income and expense
consists of income from service charges on deposit accounts, fees charged for
various services, gains and losses from the sale of assets, both fixed assets
and securities, and various administrative, operating and income tax expenses.
Changes in the volume and mix of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities, as well as their respective yields and rates, have
a significant impact on the level of net interest income. Net interest margin is
calculated by dividing tax equivalent net interest income by average earning
assets and reflects the Company's net yield on its earning assets.
General. Net income has increased in each of the last three years. The
increase in income in 1999 was caused by growth in earning assets and by the
funding of higher yielding loan assets, in part, from the sale of lower yielding
securities assets. In 1997 and 1998 net interest income increased as the
11
<PAGE>
Company continued to experience favorable asset growth.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income, after provision for loan
losses, was $7.04 million for the year ended December 31, 1999, up $0.49 million
or 7.41% over the $6.55 million reported for the same period in 1998. This
increase in net interest income, after provision for loan losses, resulted from
an increase in interest-earning assets. In 1998 net interest income, after
provision for loan losses, increased 9.69% or $0.58 million from $5.97 million
in 1997.
Interest income as a percent of average earning assets declined to
7.94% in 1999 from 8.22% in 1998 following a decline in 1998 from 8.51% in 1997.
Interest expense as a percent of average earning assets increased from 4.02% in
1997 to 4.12% in l998 and declined to 3.95% in 1999. Net interest margin and
interest rate spread decreased in 1999 when compared to 1998 and in 1998 when
compared to 1997. Net interest margin was 3.98% in l999, 4.10% in l998 and 4.48%
in 1997. Interest rate spread was 3.30% in 1999, 3.31% in l998 and 3.66% in
1997. The decline in yields on earning assets reflect a lower interest rate
environment and management's attempt to grow the assets of the Bank while the
cost of funding the growth increased.
Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for 1999 was increased to
$495,000 from $330,000 for 1998 and $220,000 for 1997. The increases were the
result of management's analysis of the existing loan portfolio and related
credit risks.
Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income decreased $129,943 or 10.40%
for 1999 over 1998 compared to an increase of $329,801 or 35.86% for 1998 over
1997. In 1999, non-interest income from other real estate owned (OREO) declined
$47,828 due to lower rental income in 1999 compared to 1998. In 1999, profits on
securities available for sale declined $196,942 from 1998. The increase in
non-interest income in 1998 over 1997 was attributed to larger income from
securities gains noted above, as well as increases in service charge income and
fees for other customer services of $52,203 and $38,239 respectively.
Non-Interest Expense. In 1999, non-interest expenses increased $164,623
or 3.22% over 1998. In 1998, non-interest expenses increased $459,679 or 9.89%
over 1997. The small percentage increase in 1999 was the result of management's
commitment to reduce non-interest expenses.
Income Taxes. The Company has adopted FASB Statement No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes." A more detailed discussion of the Company's tax
calculation is contained in Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements.
Net interest income is affected by changes in both average interest
rates and average volumes of interest earning assets and interest bearing
liabilities. Table 3 sets forth the amounts of the total change in interest
income that can be attributed to changes in the volume of interest earning
assets and interest bearing liabilities and the amount of the change that can be
attributed to changes in interest rates. The amount of change not solely due to
rate or volume changes was allocated between the change due to rate and the
change due to volume based on the relative size of the rate and volume changes.
Year 2000 Issues
The Company encountered no year 2000 related problems at the end of the
year or during the transition on December 31, 1999. Management does not
anticipate problems in the coming year regarding this unique and historical
event.
The Bank complied with all of the FFIEC requests, from the assessment
of operating systems to the replacement or modification of programs or PCs not
compliant with Y2K. These systems were tested and all contingency plans were in
place for unexpected occurrences.
12
<PAGE>
The Bank spent a total of $212,224 on the Year 2000 project, which
included hardware replacements, new software, testing, and contingency planning.
Without these expenditures and the diligent efforts of all employees, January 1,
2000 may not have been so peaceful. The Bank is now, more than ever, ready to
bring the Bank into the new millennium with new products and more enhanced
services.

Financial Condition
General. Management continued to aggressively increase the size of the
loan portfolio in 1999. Loans, net of unearned discounts and allowance for loan
losses, increased $20.9 million or 16.4% from $128.4 million in 1998 to $149.3
million in 1999. This growth in loans was reflected in an 8.1% increase in
assets during the year. Assets began the year at $191.1million and grew $15.5
million to $206.6 million by year-end.
Loans. The Bank is an active lender with a loan portfolio which
includes commercial and residential mortgages, commercial loans, consumer loans,
both installment and credit card, real estate construction loans and home equity
loans. The Bank's lending activity is concentrated on individuals and small to
medium sized businesses in its primary trade area of the Virginia counties of
Shenandoah, Warren, Frederick and the City of Winchester. As a provider of
community oriented financial services, the Bank does not attempt to
geographically diversify its loan portfolio by undertaking significant lending
activity outside its primary trade area.
The Bank's loan portfolio is summarized in table 4 for the periods
indicated.

As shown in Table 4 above the total amount of commercial, financial and
agricultural loans increased $0.7 million in 1999. Residential real estate
mortgage loans increased $10.7 million in 1999 after increasing $2.8 million in
1998. Non-farm, non residential mortgage loans declined in 1999 by $0.4 million
and increased in 1998 by $4.3 million. The growth in the consumer loan area
continued in 1999 with an increase of $4.5 million which was more than the
increase of $0.8 million in 1998.
There was no category of loans that exceeded 10% of outstanding loans

Asset Quality. The Allowance for Loan Losses ("ALL") balance at
December 31, 1999 was $1,447,011, representing 0.96% of total loans and 384% of
non-performing assets. At December 31, 1998, these amounts were 0.95% and 223%.
These amounts were .98 % and 114% at December 31, 1997.
Total losses charged against the ALL in 1999 were $338,897 compared to
$233,306 in 1998, and $97,008 in 1997. Recoveries, consisting of the recovery of
principal on loans previously charged against the allowance, totaled $64,712 in
1999, $17,184 in 1998, and $14,914 in 1997.
Management believes, based upon its review and analysis, that the Bank
has sufficient reserves to cover any projected losses within the total loan
portfolio.

For each period presented, the provision for loan losses charged to
operating expense was based on management's judgement after taking into
consideration all factors connected with the collectability of the existing
portfolio. Management considers economic conditions, changes in the nature and
value of the portfolio, industry standards and other relevant factors when
evaluating the loan portfolio. Specific factors considered by management when
determining the amount to be provided included internally generated loan quality
reports which analyze each problem loan to estimate amounts of probable loss and
previous loss experience with various loan categories.

Non-Performing Assets Management classifies as non-performing both
those loans on which payment has been delinquent 90 days or more and for which
there is a risk of loss to either principal or interest, and Other Real Estate
Owned. Other Real Estate Owned represents real property taken by the Bank either
through foreclosure or through a deed in lieu thereof from the borrower. Other
Real Estate Owned is booked at the lower of cost or market less estimated
selling costs, and is actively marketed by the Bank through brokerage channels.
Impairment of loans having recorded investments of $303,479 at December
31, l999 has been recognized in conformity with FASB Statement No. 114. The
average recorded investment in impaired loans during 1999 was $234,024. The
total allowance for loan losses related to these loans was $45,522 on December
31, l999. There was no interest income on impaired loans recognized for cash
payments received in l999. In 1998, the bank had impaired loans with recorded
investments of $164,569. The average recorded investment in impaired loans
during 1998 was $195,574 and the total allowance for loan losses related to
these loans was $78,228. There was no interest income on impaired loans
recognized for cash payments received in 1998. There were no impaired loans in
1997.
Non-accrual loans excluded from impaired loan disclosure under FASB 114
amounted to $34,125 and $42,385 at December 31, 1999 and 1998 respectively. If
interest on these loans had been accrued, such income would have approximated
$374 and $1,326 for 1999 and 1998.
When a loan is placed on non-accrual status there are several negative
implications as a result. First, all interest accrued but unpaid at the time of
the classification is deducted from the interest income totals for the Bank.
Second, accruals of interest are discontinued until it becomes certain that both
principal and interest can be repaid. Third, there may be actual losses which
necessitate additional provisions for credit losses charged against earnings.

This schedule has been prepared using the contractual maturities for
all securities with the exception of mortgaged-backed securities ("MBS's") and
collateralized mortgage obligations ("CMO's"). Both MBS and CMO securities were
recorded using dealer median prepayment speed assumptions, which is an industry
standard.
As of December 31, 1999, neither the Company nor the Bank held any
derivative financial instruments in their respective investment security
portfolios.
Deposits. The Bank has made an effort in recent years to increase core
deposits and reduce costs of funds. Deposits provide funding for the Company's
investments in loans and securities, and the interest paid for deposits must be
managed carefully to control the level of interest expense.
Deposits at December 31, 1999 were $153.4 million, a decrease of $1.6
million or 1.02% from $155.0 million at December 31, 1998. Savings and interest
bearing demand deposits grew $4.9 million or 6.60% while non-interest-bearing
demand deposits declined $0.9 million or 4.60% and time deposits declined $5.6

Liquidity Liquidity represents an institutions 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 in securities, and loans maturing within one year. As a result
of the Bank's management of liquid assets and the ability to generate liquidity
through liability funding, management believes that the Bank maintains overall
liquidity sufficient to satisfy its depositors' requirements and to meet its
customers' credit needs.
At December 31, 1999, cash, interest bearing and non-interest bearing
deposits with banks, federal funds sold, investments in securities, and loans
maturing within one year were $41.5 million. As of December 31, 1999,
approximately 23.31% or $34.8 million of the loan portfolio would mature or
reprice within a one year period.
Non-deposit sources of funds in use as of December 31, 1999 consisted
of six Federal Home Loan Bank advances. Three of the advances were used to fund
specific longer-term loan requests. All three of these fixed-rate advances were
Principal Reducing Credit ("PRC") advances that amortize during the life of the
loan. The first PRC advance was funded in 1995 in the amount of $1.5 million at
6.25% with an effective maturity of December 12, 2005. The outstanding balance
of this advance at year-end was $1.42 million. The second PRC advance was funded
in 1998 in the amount of $1.3 million at 6.23% with an effective maturity of
April 1, 2013. This advance maintained a balance of $1.22 million at year-end.
The
23
<PAGE>
last PRC advance was funded in 1999 in the amount of $1.0 million at 5.98% with
an effective maturity of February 11, 2019. At year-end, the outstanding balance
on this advance was $984 thousand. Two of the remaining three advances were
Convertible Advances that maintain a fixed rate during an agreed upon contract
term. Thereafter and until the maturity date, the Federal Home Loan Bank may
convert the advances to a floating rate advance. If the Federal Home Loan Bank
exercises its option to convert the advances, the Bank may prepay the advance
with no penalty. One of the Convertible Advances was funded in 1997 in the
amount of $5.0 million at 5.58% with an effective maturity date of December 16,
2002 and an optional convertible feature at December 16, 1999, or later. These
funds were borrowed for the purpose of general loan funding. The other
Convertible advance was funded in 1998 in the amount of $10.0 million at 5.515%
with an effective maturity of March 17, 2008 and an optional convertible feature
at March 17, 2003, or later. This advance was used to fund an investment growth
strategy. The last advance was funded via the Daily Rate Credit ("DRC") program.
This $15.0 million floating rate advance was funded in 1999 and maintains a
maturity date of September 25, 2000. However, it may be repaid at anytime
without penalty. This advance was used for general balance sheet funding.
Capital Resources. The adequacy of the Company's capital is reviewed by
management on an ongoing basis with reference to the size, composition, and
quality of the Company's asset and liability levels and consistent with
regulatory requirements and industry standards. Management seeks to maintain a
capital structure that will assure an adequate level of capital to support
anticipated asset growth and absorb potential losses.
The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System has adopted
capital guidelines to supplement the existing definitions of capital for
regulatory purposes and to establish minimum capital standards. Specifically,
the guidelines categorize assets and off-balance sheet items into four risks
weighted categories. The minimum ratio of qualifying total capital to
risk-weighted assets is 8.0%, of which at least 4.0% must be tier 1 capital,
composed of common equity, retained earnings and a limited amount of perpetual
preferred stock, less certain goodwill items. The Company had a ratio of
risk-weighted assets to total capital of 13.7% at December 31, 1999 and a ratio
of risk-weighted assets to Tier 1 capital of 12.7%. Both of these exceed the
capital requirements adopted by the federal regulatory agencies.

New Accounting Pronouncements. In June 1998, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board issued Statement 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities," which is required to be adopted in years beginning after
June 15, 1999. The Statement permits early adoption as of the beginning of any
fiscal quarter after its issuance. The Company has not determined whether to
adopt the new statement early. The Statement will require the Company to
recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that
are not hedges must be adjusted to fair value through income. If the derivative
is a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of
derivatives will be either offset against the change in fair value of the hedged
assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings or recognized in other
comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The
ineffective portion of a derivative's change in fair value will be immediately
recognized in earnings.
Because the Company does not use derivative's, management does not
anticipate that the adoption of the new Statement will have any effect on the
Company's earnings or financial position.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the Stockholders and Directors
First National Corporation
Strasburg, Virginia
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of First National
Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the related
consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders' equity and cash
flows for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Corporation's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit 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 First National
Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the results
of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1999,
1998 and 1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

FIRST NATIONAL CORPORATION
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1. Nature of Banking Activities and Significant Accounting Policies
First National Corporation and Subsidiaries (the Corporation) grant commercial,
financial, agricultural, residential and consumer loans to customers in the
Shenandoah Valley Region of Virginia. The loan portfolio is well diversified and
generally is collateralized by assets of the customers. The loans are expected
to be repaid from cash flow or proceeds from the sale of selected assets of the
borrowers.
The accounting and reporting policies of the Corporation conform to generally
accepted accounting principles and to accepted practices within the banking
industry.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements of First National Corporation and its
wholly-owned subsidiaries, First Bank (the Bank) and First Bank Financial
Corporation, include the accounts of all three companies. All material
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Securities
Investments are accounted for as follows:
a. Securities Held to Maturity
Securities classified as held to maturity are those debt securities the
Corporation has both the intent and ability to hold to maturity regardless of
changes in market conditions, liquidity needs or changes in general economic
conditions. These securities are carried at cost adjusted for amortization of
premium and accretion of discount, computed by the interest method over their
contractual lives.
b. Securities Available for Sale
Securities classified as available for sale are those debt and equity securities
that the Corporation intends to hold for an indefinite period of time, but not
necessarily to maturity. Any decision to sell a security classified as available
for sale would be based on various factors, including significant movements in
interest rates, changes in the maturity mix of the Corporation's assets and
liabilities, liquidity needs, regulatory capital considerations, and other
similar factors. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value.
Unrealized gains or losses are reported as increases or decreases in
stockholders' equity, net of the related deferred tax effect. Realized gains or
losses, determined on the basis of the cost of specific securities sold, are
included in earnings.
<PAGE>
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Loans
The Corporation grants mortgage, commercial and consumer loans to customers. A
substantial portion of the loan portfolio is represented by mortgage loans
throughout the Shenandoah Valley Region of Virginia. The ability of the
Corporation's debtors to honor their contracts is dependent upon the real estate
and general economic conditions in this 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 less 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 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. Credit card loans and other personal 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 place 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 the principal
and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments
are reasonably assured.
Allowance for Loan Losses
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 uncollectibility
of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to
the allowance.
The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and
is based upon management's periodic review of the collectibility of the loans in
light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio,
adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay, estimated
value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This
evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are
susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.
A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it
is probable that the Corporation 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 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.
<PAGE>
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for
impairment. Accordingly, the Corporation does not separately identify individual
consumer and residential loans for impairment disclosures.
Bank Premises and Equipment
Bank premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.
For financial reporting, depreciation is computed using the straight-line method
over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from five to forty
years. Gains and losses on routine dispositions are reflected in current
operations.
Other Real Estate
Assets acquired through or in lieu of, foreclosure are held for sale and are
initially recorded at fair value at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new
cost basis. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by
management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair
value less cost to sell. Revenue and expenses from operations and changes in the
valuation allowance are included in net expenses from foreclosed assets.
Income Taxes
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined using the 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.
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share represents income available to common stockholders
divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the
period. Diluted earnings per share reflects additional common shares that would
have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as
well as any adjustment to income that would result from the assumed issuance.
Potential common shares that may be issued by the Corporation relate solely to
outstanding stock options, and are determined using the treasury stock method.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Corporation has defined cash equivalents as those amounts included in the
balance sheet caption "Cash and Due from Banks".
<PAGE>
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles 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. Material
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 foreclosed real estate and deferred tax assets.
Advertising Costs
The Corporation follows the policy of charging the production costs of
advertising to expense as incurred. Total advertising expense incurred for 1999,
1998 and 1997 was $189,630, $218,121 and $271,294, respectively.
Comprehensive Income
The Corporation adopted SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," as of
January 1, 1998. Accounting principles generally require that recognized
revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain
changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on
available for sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the
equity section of the balance sheet, such items, along with net income, are
components of comprehensive income. The adoption of SFAS No. 130 had no effect
on the Corporation's net income or stockholders' equity.
Emerging Accounting Standards
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which, as
amended, requires adoption in years beginning after June 15, 2000. The Statement
requires the Corporation to recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at
fair value. Because the Corporation does not use derivatives, management does
not anticipate that the adoption of the new Statement will have any effect on
the Corporation's earnings or financial position.

and $164,569 at December 31, 1998 has been recognized in conformity with SFAS
Statement No. 114. The average recorded investment in impaired loans during 1999
and 1998 was $234,024 and $195,574. The total allowance for loan losses related
to these loans was $45,522 and $78,228. There was no interest income on impaired
loan recognized for cash payments received in 1999 or 1998.
Nonaccrual loans excluded from impaired loan disclosure under SFAS 114 amounted
to $34,125 and $42,385 at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. If interest
on these loans had been accrued, such income would have approximated $374 and
$1,326 for 1999 and 1998.

The Corporation provides a profit sharing thrift plan for all eligible
employees. Participating employees may elect to contribute up to 6% of their
salaries. The Corporation contributes an amount equal to one-half of the
employees' contributions. The Corporation's contributions in 1999, 1998 and 1997
were $48,572, $50,187, and $54,399, respectively.
On January 6, 1999, the Bank adopted a Director Split Dollar Life Insurance
Plan. This Plan provides life insurance coverage to insurable directors of the
Bank. The Bank owns the policies and is entitled to all values and proceeds. The
Plan provides retirement benefits and the payment of benefits at the death of
the insured director. The amount of benefits will be determined by the
performance of the policies over the director's life.
Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies
In the normal course of business, there are outstanding various commitments and
contingent liabilities, such as guarantees, commitments to extend credit, etc.,
which are not reflected in the accompanying financial statements. The
Corporation does not anticipate losses as a result of these transactions.
The Corporation has cash accounts in other commercial banks. The amount on
deposit at these banks at December 31, 1999, exceeded the insurance limits of
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation by approximately $183,566.
See Note 16 with respect to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk.
Note 13. Transactions With Related Parties
During the year, employees, executive officers and directors (and companies
controlled by them) were customers of and had transactions with the Corporation
in the normal course of business. These transactions were made on substantially
the same terms as those prevailing for other customers.
An analysis of loans (exclusive of loans to any such person which in the
aggregate did not exceed $60,000) made by the Corporation to directors,
executive officers, or principal stockholders or to any associate of such
persons is shown in the following table:

Note 15. Dividend Reinvestment Plan
The Company has in effect a Dividend Reinvestment Plan which provides an
automatic conversion of dividends into common stock for enrolled shareholders.
Stock is issued at 100% of fair market value on each dividend record date.
Note 16. Financial Instruments With Off-Balance-Sheet Risk
The Corporation is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in
the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers and
to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. 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
or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the
Corporation has in particular classes of financial instruments.
The Corporation'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 notional amount of
those instruments. The Corporation uses the same credit policies in making
commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet
instruments.
A summary of the contract or notional amount of the Corporation's exposure to
off-balance-sheet risk as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, is as follows:
1999 1998
------------ ------------
Financial instruments whose contract
amounts represent credit risk:
Commitments to extend credit $ 19,137,000 $ 19,734,000
Standby letters of credit $ 553,525 $ 729,665
<PAGE>
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
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 Corporation evaluates each customer's
credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if
deemed necessary by the Corporation 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
uncollateralized and usually do not contain a specified maturity date and may
not be drawn upon to the total extent to which the Corporation is committed.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Corporation
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 Corporation holds
security agreements on accounts receivable, inventory and equipment as
collateral supporting those commitments for which collateral is deemed
necessary. The extent of collateral held for those commitments at December 31,
1999, varies from 0 percent to 100 percent; the average amount collateralized is
55.1 percent.
Note 17. Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of
each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that
value:
Cash and Short-Term Investments
For those short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate
of fair value.
Securities
For securities held for investment purposes, fair values are based on quoted
market prices or dealer quotes.
Loan Receivables
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.
<PAGE>
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Deposit Liabilities
The fair value of demand deposits, 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.
Accrued Interest
The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value.
Borrowings
The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased, borrowings under repurchase
agreements, and other short-term borrowings under repurchase agreements, and
other short-term borrowings maturing within 90 days approximate their fair
values. Fair values of other borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow
analyses based on the Corporation's current incremental borrowing rates for
similar types of borrowing arrangements.
Off-Balance-Sheet Financial Instruments
The fair value of commitments to extend credit is estimated using the fees
currently charged to enter similar agreements, taking into account the remaining
terms of the agreements and the present credit worthiness 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.
At December 31, 1999 and 1998, the carrying amounts and fair values of loan
commitments and stand-by letters of credit were deemed immaterial.

Note 18. Regulatory Matters
The Corporation is subject to various regulatory capital requirements
administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital
requirements can initiate certain mandatory - possibly additional discretionary
- - actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect
on the Corporation's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and
the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Corporation must meet
specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the
Corporation's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as
calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Corporation's 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 Corporation 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, and of Tier 1 capital to average assets. Management
believes, as of December 31, 1999, that the Corporation meets all capital
adequacy requirements to which it is subject.
As of December 31, 1999, the most recent notification from the Federal Reserve
Bank categorized the Corporation as well capitalized under the regulatory
framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized,
the Corporation must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, and
Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or
events since that notification that management believes have changed the
institution's category.
