Item 2.      Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

         On  October  1, 1999,  The  Horizon  Bank of  Virginia  ("Horizon"),  a
Virginia  state bank,  was merged  with and into  Southern  Financial  Bank (the
"Bank"),  a  Virginia  state  bank and a wholly  owned  subsidiary  of  Southern
Financial Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company"),  a Virginia corporation (the "Merger").
The Merger was consummated  pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization,
dated as of May 3, 1999, as amended,  between Horizon, the Company and the Bank,
and a related Plan of Merger.

         Under the terms of the  Merger,  each  outstanding  share of  Horizon's
common stock, par value $2.50 per share ("Horizon Common Stock"),  was converted
into 0.63  shares  of the  Company's  common  stock,  par value  $0.01 per share
("Company Common Stock"),  and cash in lieu of fractional  shares.  In addition,
all rights to acquire  Horizon Common Stock pursuant to stock options granted by
Horizon  under  Horizon's  stock  option plans were  converted  into options for
Company  Common  Stock.  As  a  result,   all  shareholders  of  Horizon  became
shareholders of the Company.

         For a more  detailed  description  of the  Merger,  see  the  Company's
definitive  Joint  Proxy  Statement,  which was filed  with the  Securities  and
Exchange   Commission  on  July  28,  1999  in  connection  with  the  Company's
