               C&F Financial Announces Successful Stock Repurchase

[West Point] -- On March 3, 1997, C&F Financial Corporation, the one-bank
holding company for Citizens and Farmers Bank of West Point, announced it was
seeking to purchase up to 210,000 shares of the Company's common stock, which
represents 10% of its outstanding common stock, at a price of $21.00 per share.
This offer expired Friday, March 28, 1997. The Company's stock repurchase was a
success. Subject to confirmation on certain receipts, approximately 205,000
shares were tendered by approximately 55 shareholders. President and CEO of C&F,
Larry G. Dillon, stated, "We anticipate that this successful tender will
increase future shareholder value without having impaired the Company's strong
capital position." The effect of this tender on the Company's December 31, 1996
capital would have resulted in risked-based capital, leverage and tier-one
capital ratios of approximately 19.0%, 10.4% and 17.8%, respectively, which are
well above the minimum required to be considered "well capitalized" of 10.0%,
4.0% and 6.0%, respectively.

Citizens and Farmers Bank and its subsidiary C&F Mortgage Corporation have
sixteen offices throughout Virginia and Maryland. C&F Financial Corporation's
stock is traded locally by several Richmond brokerage firms.
