Note 6.  Derivative Financial Instruments

         Interest rate swap agreements:

         During May 2000,  the Company  entered  into two  agreements  to assume
         variable  market-indexed  interest  payments in exchange for fixed-rate
         interest payments  (interest rate swaps). The notional principal amount
         of interest rate swaps outstanding was $8,525,000 at June 30, 2000. The
         original  term to maturity was 24 months.  The  weighted-average  fixed
         payment  rate was 7.0% at June 30,  2000.  Variable  interest  payments
         received are based on three-month LIBOR. At June 30, 2000, the weighted
         average rate of variable market-indexed interest payment obligations to
         the Company was 6.34%.  The effect of these agreements was to transform
         fixed rate  liabilities to variable rate  liabilities.  The net cost of
         these  agreements  was ($6,164) for the six month period ended June 30,
         2000, which is charged to income as it accrues.

         The Company's  current credit exposure on swaps is limited to the value
         of interest rate swaps that have become assets to the Company.  At June
         30, 2000,  the fair value of interest  rate swaps in an asset  position
         was $37,081.

Item 2.      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
             CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Financial Summary

         Net income for the six months  ended June 30, 2000  increased  32.5% to
2.2 million or $1.23 per  diluted  share  compared  to $1.6  million or $.91 per
diluted  share for the first six months of 1999.  Annualized  returns on average
assets and equity for the six months  ended June 30, 2000 were 1.73% and 18.93%,
respectively, compared to 1.54% and 14.25% for the same period in 1999.

         Total assets for Independent Community Bankshares, Inc. (the "Company")
were $266.2  million at June 30, 2000 compared to $243.9 million at December 31,
1999 representing an increase of $22.3 million or 9.14%. Total loans at June 30,
2000 were $159.2  million,  an increase of $16.0  million  from the December 31,
1999 balance of $143.2 million.  Significant factors contributing to loan growth
include  additional loan officers as well as favorable local market  conditions.
The  investment  portfolio  increased  19.14% to $80.7  million at June 30, 2000
compared to $67.7 million at December 31, 1999.  Deposits  increased $595,000 to
$204.4  million at June 30,  2000 from  $203.8  million at  December  31,  1999.
Securities sold under agreements to repurchase increased 14.47% to $12.4 million
at June 30, 2000  compared to $10.8  million at December 31, 1999.  Federal Home
Loan Bank (FHLB)  Advances  increased $18.4 million to $23.4 million at June 30,
2000.  Funds  from the  increase  in FHLB  advances  were  used to fund loan and
investment portfolio growth.

         Shareholders'  equity  totaled  $23.4 million at June 30, 2000 compared
$23.1  million at December 31, 1999.  The book value per common share was $13.60
at June 30, 2000 and $12.97 at December 31, 1999.

Net Interest Income

         Net interest  income is the  Company's  primary  source of earnings and
represents the difference between interest and fees earned on earning assets and
the interest  expense paid on deposits and other interest  bearing  liabilities.
Net  interest  income  totaled  $5.9  million  for the first six  months of 2000
compared  to $4.8  million  for the same  period in 1999.  The growth in average
earning assets has caused the increase in net interest income.

Noninterest Income

         Noninterest income consisting of fees from deposit accounts,  fiduciary
activities  as well as mortgage  banking was $1.8  million for six month  period
ended  June 30,  2000  compared  to $1.4  million  for the same  period in 1999.
Service  charges on deposit for accounts for the six month period ended June 30,
2000  totaled  $612,000  compared  to $553,000  for the same period in 1999,  an
increase of 10.67%. Commissions and fees from fiduciary activities were $755,000
for the six month period  ended June 30, 2000  compared to $512,000 for the same
period in 1999.  Assets  under  management  increased  28.95% to $451.7  million
resulting  in 47.46%  increase  in related fee income.  Other  operating  income
increased $75,000 to $385,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to
$310,000 for the same period in 1999.  Commissions from mortgage banking account
for a majority of the increase in other operating income.

Noninterest Expense

         Total noninterest  expense includes  employee related costs,  occupancy
and equipment  expense and other overhead.  Total  noninterest  expense was $4.6
million  for the six month  period  ended June 30,



                                       10
<PAGE>

2000,  an  increase of 18.42%  compared  to $3.9  million for the same period in
1999.  Salary and benefit expense increased 22.52% from $2.1 million for the six
month  period ended June 30, 1999 to $2.6 million for the six month period ended
June 30, 2000. Net occupancy expense of premises  increased 29.81% from $463,000
for the six month  period ended June 30, 1999 to $601,000 for the same period in
2000.  Rental expenses  associated with two new branches and a mortgage  banking
office have  contributed  to the  increase in  occupancy  expenses.  A continued
emphasis on marketing has increased  advertising costs from $161,000 for the six
month period ended June 30, 1999 to $222,000 for the same period in 2000.

Allowance for Loan Losses

         The  allowance  for loan  losses  was  $1.6  million  at June 30,  2000
compared to $1.2 million at June 30,  1999.  The  provision  for loan losses was
$200,000 for the six month  period ended June 30, 2000  compared to $204,000 for
the same  period in 1999.  The ratio of the  allowance  for loan losses to total
loans was 1.03% at June 30, 2000 compared to 0.90% at June 30, 1999.  Management
believes  the  allowance  for loan  losses is adequate  to cover  credit  losses
inherent in the loan  portfolio  at June 30,  2000.  Loans  classified  as loss,
doubtful, substandard or special mention are adequately reserved for and are not
expected to have a material impact beyond what is reserved.

Capital Resources

         Shareholders'  equity was $23.4  million at June 30,  2000  compared to
$23.1  million at June 30, 1999.  During the first quarter of 2000 two privately
negotiated  stock  repurchases  were completed  totaling 57,785 shares of common
stock at a weighted  average price of $22.46 per share. The stock repurchase was
3.25% of the total stock  outstanding  prior to the  transaction.  Total  common
shares outstanding at June 30, 2000 were 1,723,209.

         At June 30,  2000 the  Company's  tier 1 and total  risk-based  capital
ratios  were  12.73% and  13.58%,  respectively,  compared to 14.0% and 14.8% at
December  31,  1999.  The  Company's  leverage  ratio was 9.66% at June 30, 2000
compared to 10.8% at December 31, 1999. The Company's  capital  structure places
it above the regulatory guidelines, which affords the Company the opportunity to
take  advantage  of  business  opportunities  while  ensuring  that  it has  the
resources to protect against risk inherent in its business.
