PART 1

ITEM 1  BUSINESS

Overview

Unless indicated otherwise, the
terms we, us, or our refer to Hampton Roads Bankshares, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Hampton
Roads Bankshares, Inc. (the Company), a Virginia corporation, was incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia on February 28, 2001, primarily to serve as a holding company for Bank of Hampton Roads
(BOHR). On July 1, 2001, all BOHR Common Stock, par value $0.625 per share, converted into Hampton Roads Bankshares, Inc. Common Stock, par value $0.625 per share (the Common Stock), on a share for share exchange basis,
making BOHR a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. In January 2004, we formed Hampton Roads Investments, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary, to provide securities, brokerage, and investment advisory services. This subsidiary is currently inactive.

On June 1, 2008, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of January 8, 2008 by and between the Company
and Shore Financial Corporation (SFC), the Company acquired via merger all of the outstanding shares of SFC making Shore Bank (Shore), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Shore has a wholly owned subsidiary, Shore
Investments Inc.

On December 31, 2008, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of September 23, 2008 by
and between the Company and Gateway Financial Holdings, Inc. (GFH), the Company acquired via merger all of the outstanding shares of GFH making Gateway Bank & Trust Co. (Gateway) a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company. On May 11, 2009, Gateway was dissolved and merged into BOHR.

BOHR is a Virginia state-chartered commercial bank with 28
full-service offices in the Hampton Roads region of southeastern Virginia, including eleven offices in the city of Chesapeake, five offices in the city of Norfolk, ten offices in the city of Virginia Beach, and two offices in the city of Suffolk. In
addition, BOHR has 24 full-service offices located in the Northeastern, Southeastern, and Research Triangle regions of North Carolina and in Richmond, Virginia that do business as Gateway. Through its acquisition of Gateway, the bank owns four
wholly-owned operating subsidiaries. Gateway Insurance Services, Inc., an insurance agency with offices in Edenton, Hertford, Elizabeth City, Plymouth, Moyock, and Kitty Hawk, North Carolina and the Hampton Roads area of Virginia, sells insurance
products to businesses and individuals. Gateway Investment Services, Inc. assists Gateway customers in their securities brokerage activities through an arrangement with an unaffiliated broker-dealer. As prescribed by this arrangement, Gateway
Investment Services earns revenue through a commission sharing arrangement with the unaffiliated broker-dealer. Gateway Bank Mortgage, Inc. provides mortgage banking services with products that are sold on the secondary market. Gateway Title Agency,
Inc. engages in title insurance and settlement services for real estate transactions. BOHR commenced operations in 1987.

Shore is a Virginia
state-chartered commercial bank with eight full-service offices and an investment center located on the Delmarva Peninsula, otherwise known as the Eastern Shore. Shore operates on the Virginia and Maryland portions of the Eastern Shore, including
the counties of Accomack and Northampton in Virginia and the Pocomoke City and Salisbury market areas in Maryland. Shores subsidiary, Shore Investments, Inc., provides non-deposit investment products including stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and
insurance products. Shore Investments has an investment in a Virginia title insurance agency that enables Shore to offer title insurance policies to its real estate loan customers. Shore commenced operations in 1961.

BOHR and Shore may be collectively referred to as the Banks throughout this document.

Our principal executive office is located at 999 Waterside Drive, Suite 200, Norfolk, VA 23510 and our telephone number is (757) 217-1000. Our
Common Stock trades on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol HMPR.

Business

Principal Products or Services

We engage
in a general community and commercial banking business, targeting the banking needs of individuals and small- to medium-sized businesses in our primary service areas which include South Hampton Roads, Virginia, the Northeastern, Southeastern, and
Research Triangle regions of North Carolina, the Eastern Shore of Virginia and Maryland, and Richmond, Virginia. Our principal business is to attract deposits and to loan to the community or to invest those deposits on profitable terms. We offer
traditional loan and deposit banking services, as well as telephone banking, Internet banking, remote deposit capture, and debit cards. We accept both commercial and consumer deposits. These deposits are in varied forms of both demand and time
accounts including checking accounts, interest checking, money market accounts, savings accounts, certificates of deposit, and IRA accounts. Additionally, we offer a network of seventy-two ATM machines to support our customers.

We are involved in the construction and real estate lending markets and extend both personal and commercial credit. Our loans consist of varying terms
and can be secured or unsecured. Loans to individuals are for personal, household, and family purposes. Loans to businesses are for such purposes as working capital, plant expansion, and equipment purchases. Real estate loans are made for both
residential and commercial properties. Loan revenues, in the form of interest income including fees, represented 83%, 84%, and 86% of our total consolidated operating revenues for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008, and 2007, respectively.

Lending Activities

General. We offer a full range of commercial, real estate, and consumer lending products and services, described in further detail below. Our loan
portfolio is comprised of the following categories: commercial, construction, real estate-commercial mortgage, real estate-residential mortgage, and installment loans to individuals. Our primary lending objective is to meet business and consumer
needs in our market areas while maintaining our standards of profitability and credit quality and enhancing client relationships. All lending decisions are based upon a thorough evaluation of the financial strength and credit history of the borrower
and the quality and value of the collateral securing the loan. With few exceptions, personal guarantees are required on all loans.

Commercial loans. We make commercial loans to qualified businesses in our market areas. Commercial loans are loans to businesses which are
typically not collateralized by real estate. Generally, the purpose of commercial loans is for the financing of accounts receivable, inventory, or equipment and machinery. Repayment of commercial loans may be more substantially dependent upon the
success of the business itself, and therefore, must be monitored more frequently. In order to reduce our risk, the Banks require regular updates of the businesss financial condition, as well as that of the guarantors, and regularly monitor
accounts receivable and payable of such businesses when deemed necessary.

Construction loans. We make construction and development
loans to individuals and businesses for the purpose of construction of single family residential properties, multi-family properties, and commercial projects as well as the development of residential neighborhoods and commercial office parks. BOHR
has been active in construction and development lending in its market since its inception. To manage risk on construction and development loans, the Banks fund these loans on an as-completed basis with experienced bank representatives
inspecting the properties before funding. Larger, more complicated projects require independent inspections by an architectural or engineering firm approved by the Banks prior to funding. Additionally, risk is being managed in the construction and
development portfolio by limiting additional lending for speculative building of both residential and commercial properties, based upon the borrowers history with the Banks, financial strength, and the loan-to-value ratio of such speculative
property. The Banks rarely exceed 80% loan-to-value on any new construction loan. An individual who borrows with the purpose of building a personal residence must provide evidence of a permanent mortgage as well as a contract with a licensed builder
before the closing of the loan.

##### Table of Contents

Real estate-commercial mortgage. The Banks make commercial mortgage loans for the purchase and
re-financing of owner occupied commercial properties as well as non-owner occupied income producing properties. These loans are secured by various types of commercial real estate including office, retail, warehouse, industrial, storage facilities,
and other non-residential types of properties. Commercial mortgage loans typically have maturities or are callable from one to five years. Underwriting for all commercial mortgages involves an examination of debt service coverage ratios, the
borrowers creditworthiness and past credit history, and the guarantors personal financial condition. Underwriting for non-owner occupied commercial mortgages also involves evaluation of the current leases and financial strength of the
tenants.

Real estate-residential mortgage. We offer a wide range of residential mortgage loans through our Banks and our subsidiary,
Gateway Bank Mortgage, Inc. Our residential mortgage portfolio held by the Banks includes first and junior lien mortgage loans, home equity lines of credit, and other term loans secured by first and junior lien mortgages. Residential mortgage loans
have historically been lower risk loans in the Banks portfolios due to the ease in which the value of the collateral is ascertained, although the risks involved with these loans has been on the rise lately due to falling home prices and high
unemployment in our markets. First mortgage loans are generally made for the purchase of permanent residences, second homes, or residential investment property. Second mortgages and home equity loans are generally for personal, family, and household
purposes such as home improvements, major purchases, education, and other personal needs. Mortgages which are secured by a borrowers primary residence are made on the basis of the borrowers ability to repay the loan from his or her
regular income as well as the general creditworthiness of the borrower. Mortgages secured by residential investment property are made based upon the same guidelines as well as the borrowers ability to cover any cash flow shortages during the
marketing of such property for rent.

Installment loans to individuals. Installment loans to individuals are made on a regular basis
for personal, family, and general household purposes. More specifically, we make automobile loans, home improvement loans, loans for vacations, and debt consolidation loans. Due to low interest rates offered by auto dealership financial programs,
this segment of the loan portfolio has declined in recent years. While consumer financing may entail greater collateral risk than real estate financing on a per loan basis, the relatively small principal balances of each loan mitigates the risk
associated with this segment of the portfolio.

Deposits

We offer a broad range of interest-bearing and non-interest-bearing deposit accounts, including commercial and retail checking accounts, money market
accounts, individual retirement accounts, regular interest-bearing savings accounts, and certificates of deposit with a range of maturity date options. The primary sources of deposits are small- and medium-sized businesses and individuals within our
target markets. Additionally, we entered the national certificate of deposit market and the brokered certificate of deposit market during 2007.

The Company has opted to participate in the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporations (FDIC) Transaction Account Guarantee Program
(TAGP), whereby the FDIC will provide deposit insurance coverage for the full amount in all of the banks customers noninterest-bearing deposit accounts through December 31, 2010. There is a possibility that the TAGP may be
extended for an additional 12 months if the FDIC determines that continuing economic conditions warrant such an extension. This includes personal and business noninterest-bearing checking accounts, low-interest NOW accounts, official items, and
certain types of attorney trust accounts with interest rates of 0.25% or less. The TAGP insurance coverage is in addition to the increased coverage provided by the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, which temporarily raises the basic FDIC
deposit insurance coverage limits to $250,000 through December 31, 2013, from the normal coverage limit of $100,000.

Telephone and
Internet Banking

We believe there is a strong demand within our markets for telephone banking and Internet banking. These services allow
both commercial and retail customers to access detailed account information and execute a wide variety of banking transactions, including balance transfers and bill payment. We believe these services are particularly attractive to our customers, as
these services enable them to conduct their banking business and monitor their accounts at any time. Telephone and Internet banking assist us in attracting and retaining customers and encourage our existing customers to consider us for all of their
banking and financial needs.

Automatic Teller Machines

We have a network of seventy-two ATMs throughout our markets, which are accessible by the customers of our subsidiary banks.

Other Products and Services

We offer
other banking-related specialized products and services to our customers, such as travelers checks, coin counters, wire services, and safe deposit box services. Additionally, we offer our commercial customers various cash management products
including remote deposit capture which allows them to make electronic check deposits from their offices. We issue letters of credit and standby letters of credit, most of which are related to real estate construction loans, for some of our
commercial customers. We have not engaged in any securitizations of loans.

The Company also offers other services that complement the core
financial services offered by the Banks. Three of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Hampton Roads Investments Inc., Shore Investments Inc., and Gateway Investment Services, Inc., provide securities, brokerage, and investment advisory services and are
capable of handling many aspects of wealth management including stocks, bonds, annuities, mutual funds, and financial consultation. Through our subsidiary, Gateway Title Agency, Inc., we offer title insurance to our real estate loan customers. The
Company also provides insurance products to businesses and individuals through its subsidiary insurance agency, Gateway Insurance Services, Inc. Additionally, Gateway Bank Mortgage, Inc. engages in originating and processing mortgage loans.

Competition

The financial
services industry remains highly competitive and is constantly evolving. We experience strong competition with competitors, some of which are not subject to the same degree of regulation that is imposed on us. Many of them have broader geographic
markets and substantially greater resources, and therefore, can offer more diversified products and services.

In our market areas, we compete
with large national and regional financial institutions, savings banks, and other independent community banks, as well as credit unions, consumer finance companies, mortgage companies, loan production offices, and insurance companies. Many of these
institutions have substantially greater assets and capital than we do. In many instances, these institutions have greater lending limits than we do. Competition for deposits and loans is affected by factors such as interest rates offered, the number
and location of branches, types of products offered, and reputation of the institution. We believe that our pricing of products has remained competitive, but our historical success is primarily attributable to high quality service and community
involvement.

##### Table of Contents

Other federal and state laws govern the activities of our Banks, including the activities in which they may
engage, the investments they make, the aggregate amount of loans they may grant to one borrower, and the dividends they may declare and pay to us. Our bank subsidiaries are also subject to various consumer and compliance laws. As Virginia
state-chartered banks, BOHR and Shore are primarily subject to regulation, supervision, and examination by the Bureau of Financial Institutions of the Virginia State Corporation Commission (Bureau of Financial Institutions). In addition,
we are regulated and supervised by the FDIC. We must furnish to the FDIC quarterly and annual reports containing detailed financial statements and schedules. All aspects of our operations, including reserves, loans, mortgages, capital, issuance of
securities, payment of dividends, and establishment of branches are governed by these authorities. These authorities are able to impose penalties, initiate civil and administrative actions, and take further steps to prevent us from engaging in
unsafe or unsound practices. In this regard, the Federal Reserve Board (Federal Reserve) has adopted capital adequacy requirements.

The following description summarizes the more significant federal and state laws applicable to us. To the extent that statutory or regulatory provisions
are described, the description is qualified in its entirety by reference to that particular statutory or regulatory provision.

The Bank
Holding Company Act

Under the Bank Holding Company Act, we are subject to periodic examination by the Federal Reserve and required to file
periodic reports regarding our operations and any additional information that the Federal Reserve may require. Our activities at the bank holding company level are limited to:



| |  |  | banking, managing, or controlling banks;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------



| |  |  | furnishing services to or performing services for our subsidiaries; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | engaging in other activities that the Federal Reserve has determined by regulation or order to be so closely related to banking as to be a proper
incident to these activities.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Some of the activities that the Federal Reserve has determined by regulation to be closely
related to the business of a bank holding company include making or servicing loans and specific types of leases, performing specific data processing services, and acting in some circumstances as a fiduciary, investment, or financial adviser.

With some limited exceptions, the Bank Holding Company Act requires every bank holding company to obtain the prior approval of the Federal
Reserve before:



| |  |  | acquiring substantially all the assets of any bank; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of any voting shares of any bank if after such acquisition it would own or control more than 5% of
the voting shares of such bank (unless it already owns or controls the majority of such shares) or merging or consolidating with another bank holding company.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, and subject to some exceptions, the Bank Holding Company Act and the Change in Bank Control Act, together with their regulations, require
Federal Reserve approval prior to any person or company acquiring control of a bank holding company. Control is conclusively presumed to exist if an individual or company acquires 25% or more of any class of voting securities of the bank
holding company. Control is presumed to exist if a person acquires 10% or more, but less than 25%, of any class of voting securities and if the institution has registered securities under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or no
other person owns a greater percentage of that class of voting securities immediately after the transaction. The regulations provide a procedure for challenging this rebuttable control presumption.

Payment of Dividends

The Company is a
legal entity separate and distinct from the Banks and our subsidiaries. Substantially all of our cash revenues will result from dividends paid to us by our Banks and interest earned on short-term investments. Our Banks are subject to laws and
regulations that limit the amount of dividends that they can pay. Under Virginia law, a bank may not declare a dividend in excess of its accumulated retained earnings. Additionally, our Banks may not declare a dividend, unless the dividend is
approved by the Federal Reserve, if the total amount of all dividends,



5

##### Table of Contents

including the proposed dividend, declared by the bank in any calendar year exceeds the total of the banks retained net income of that year to date, combined with its retained net income of
the two preceding years. Our Banks may not declare or pay any dividend if, after making the dividend, the bank would be undercapitalized, as defined in the banking regulations. Both the Company and BOHR are prevented from paying
dividends until their financial condition improves.

The Federal Reserve and the Bureau of Financial Institutions have the general authority
to limit the dividends paid by insured banks if the payment is deemed an unsafe and unsound practice. Both the Federal Reserve and the Bureau of Financial Institutions have indicated that paying dividends that deplete a banks capital base to
an inadequate level would be an unsound and unsafe banking practice.

In addition, we are subject to certain regulatory requirements to
maintain capital at or above regulatory minimums. These regulatory requirements regarding capital affect our dividend policies. Regulators have indicated that bank holding companies should generally pay dividends only if the organizations net
income available to common shareholders over the past year has been sufficient to fully fund the dividends, and the prospective rate of earnings retention appears consistent with the organizations capital needs, asset quality, and overall
financial condition.

The Company is also required to obtain the consent of the United States Department of the Treasury (the
Treasury) to increase dividends on its Common Stock as long as we are participating in the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP). As of December 31, 2009, the Company was not allowed to pay any dividends without prior
regulatory approval.

Insurance of Accounts, Assessments, and Regulation by the FDIC

The deposits of our bank subsidiaries are insured by the FDIC up to the limits set forth under applicable law and are subject to the deposit insurance
assessments of the Bank Insurance Fund (BIF) of the FDIC.

The FDIC has implemented a risk-based deposit insurance assessment
system under which the assessment rate for an insured institution may vary according to regulatory capital levels of the institution and other factors, including supervisory evaluations. In addition to being influenced by the risk profile of the
particular depository institution, FDIC premiums are also influenced by the size of the FDIC insurance fund in relation to total deposits in FDIC insured banks. The FDIC has authority to impose special assessments.

In February 2006, The Federal Deposit Insurance Reform Act of 2005 and The Federal Deposit Insurance Reform Conforming Amendments Act of 2005
(collectively, The Reform Act) was signed into law. This legislation contained technical and conforming changes to implement deposit insurance reform, as well as a number of study and survey requirements.

The Reform Act provides for the following changes:



| |  |  | Merging the BIF and the Savings Association Insurance Fund into a new fund, the Deposit Insurance Fund (DIF).
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Increasing the coverage limit for retirement accounts to $250,000 and indexing the coverage limit for retirement accounts to inflation as with the
general deposit insurance coverage limit.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Establishing a range of 1.15% to 1.50% within which the FDIC Board of Directors may set the Designated Reserve Ratio (DRR).
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Allowing the FDIC to manage the pace at which the DRR varies within this range.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | If the reserve ratio falls below 1.15%or is expected to within 6 monthsthe FDIC must adopt a restoration plan that provides that the DIF
will return to 1.15% generally within 5 years.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | If the reserve ratio exceeds 1.35%, the FDIC must generally dividend to DIF members half of the amount above the amount necessary to maintain the DIF
at 1.35%, unless the FDIC Board, considering statutory factors, suspends the dividends.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | If the reserve ratio exceeds 1.50%, the FDIC must generally dividend to DIF members all amounts above the amount necessary to maintain the DIF at
1.50%.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | Eliminating the restrictions on premium rates based on the DRR and granting the FDIC Board the discretion to price deposit insurance according to risk
for all insured institutions regardless of the level of the reserve ratio.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Granting a one-time initial assessment credit (of approximately $4.7 billion) to recognize institutions past contributions to the fund.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Requiring the FDIC to conduct studies of three issues: (1) further potential changes to the deposit insurance system, (2) the appropriate
deposit base in designating the reserve ratio, and (3) the Corporations contingent loss reserving methodology and accounting for losses.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Requiring the Comptroller General to conduct studies of (1) federal bank regulators administration of the prompt corrective action program
and recent changes to the FDIC deposit insurance system and (2) the organizational structure of the FDIC.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The FDIC is
authorized to prohibit any insured institution from engaging in any activity that the FDIC determines by regulation or order to pose a serious threat to the DIF. Also, the FDIC may initiate enforcement actions against banks, after first giving the
institutions primary regulatory authority an opportunity to take such action. The FDIC may terminate the deposit insurance of any depository institution if it determines, after a hearing, that the institution has engaged or is engaging in
unsafe or unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations, or has violated any applicable law, regulation, order or any condition imposed in writing by the FDIC. It also may suspend deposit insurance temporarily during
the hearing process for the permanent termination of insurance, if the institution has no tangible capital. If deposit insurance is terminated, the deposits at the institution at the time of termination, less subsequent withdrawals, shall continue
to be insured for a period from six months to two years, as determined by the FDIC. We are unaware of any existing circumstances that could result in the termination of any of our bank subsidiaries deposit insurance.

Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002

The
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 comprehensively revised the laws affecting corporate governance, accounting obligations, and corporate reporting for companies with equity or debt securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended. In particular, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act established: (1) new requirements for audit committees, including independence, expertise, and responsibilities; (2) new certification responsibilities for the Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer with respect to the Companys financial statements; (3) new standards for auditors and regulation of audits; (4) increased disclosure and reporting obligations for reporting companies and their directors and
executive officers; and (5) new and increased civil and criminal penalties for violation of the federal securities laws.

Emergency
Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (EESA)

In response to recent unprecedented market turmoil, the EESA was enacted on
October 3, 2008. EESA authorizes the Secretary of Treasury (the Secretary) to purchase or guarantee up to $700 billion in troubled assets from financial institutions under the TARP. Pursuant to authority granted under EESA, the
Secretary has created the TARP Capital Purchase Program (TARP CPP or CPP) under which the Treasury could invest up to $250 billion in senior preferred stock of U.S. banks and savings associations or their holding companies.
Qualifying financial institutions issued senior preferred stock with a value equal to not less than 1% of risk-weighted assets and not more than the lesser of $25 billion or 3% of risk-weighted assets. The senior preferred stock pays dividends at
the rate of 5% per annum until the fifth anniversary of the investment and, thereafter, at the rate of 9% per annum. The CPP was amended by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) and states that the senior
preferred stock could be redeemed within three years without a qualifying equity offering, subject to the approval of its primary federal regulator. After the three years, the senior preferred may be redeemed at any time in whole or in part by the
financial institution. Until the third anniversary of the issuance of the senior preferred, the consent of the Treasury is required for an increase in the dividends on the Common Stock or for any stock repurchases unless the senior preferred has
been redeemed in its entirety or the Treasury has transferred the senior preferred to third parties. The senior preferred does not have voting rights other than the right to vote as a class on the issuance of any preferred stock ranking senior, any
change in its terms, or any merger, exchange, or similar transaction that would adversely affects its rights. The senior preferred also has the right to elect two directors if dividends have not been paid for six periods. The senior preferred is
freely transferable and participating institutions will

##### Table of Contents

be required to file a shelf registration statement covering the senior preferred. The issuing institution must grant the Treasury piggyback registration rights. Prior to issuance, the financial
institution and its senior executive officers must modify or terminate all benefit plans and arrangements to comply with EESA. Senior executives must also wave any claims against the Treasury. No dividends may be paid on Common Stock unless
dividends have been paid on the senior preferred stock.

Institutions participating in the TARP or CPP are required to issue 10-year warrants
for common or preferred stock or senior debt with an aggregate market price equal to 15% of the amount of senior preferred. The Treasury will not exercise voting rights with respect to any shares of Common Stock acquired through exercise of the
warrants. The financial institution must file a shelf registration statement covering the warrants and underlying Common Stock as soon as practicable after issuance and grant piggyback registration rights.

If an institution participates in the CPP or if the Secretary acquires a meaningful equity or debt position in the institution as a result of TARP
participation, the institution is required to meet certain standards for executive compensation and corporate governance, including a prohibition against incentives to take unnecessary and excessive risks, recovery of bonuses paid to senior
executives based on materially inaccurate earnings or other statements and a prohibition against agreements for the payment of golden parachutes. Institutions that sell more than $300 million in assets under TARP auctions or participate in the CPP
will not be entitled to a tax deduction for compensation in excess of $500 thousand paid to its chief executive or chief financial official or any of its other three most highly compensated officers. Additional standards with respect to executive
compensation and corporate governance for institutions that have participated or will participate in the TARP (including the CPP) were enacted as part of the ARRA, described below.

On December 31, 2008, and subsequent to the Companys acquisition of GFH, as part of the CPP, the Company entered into a Letter Agreement and
Securities Purchase Agreement (collectively, the Purchase Agreement) with the Treasury, pursuant to which the Company sold (i) 80,347 shares of the Companys Series C Preferred Stock, having a liquidation preference of $1,000
per share and (ii) a warrant (the Warrant) to purchase 1,325,858 shares of the Companys Common Stock at an initial exercise price of $9.09 per share, subject to certain anti-dilution and other adjustments, for an aggregate
purchase price of $80.3 million in cash. This preferred stock is redeemable at par plus accrued and unpaid dividends subject to the approval of the Companys primary banking regulators.

The Warrant is immediately exercisable. The Warrant provides for the adjustment of the exercise price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
upon exercise pursuant to customary anti-dilution provisions, such as upon stock splits or distributions of securities or other assets to holders of Common Stock, and upon certain issuances of Common Stock at or below a specified price relative to
the then-current market price of Common Stock. The Warrant expires ten years from the issuance date. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Treasury has agreed not to exercise voting power with respect to any shares of Common Stock issued upon
exercise of the Warrant.

American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009

The ARRA was enacted on February 17, 2009. The ARRA includes a wide variety of programs intended to stimulate the economy and provide for extensive
infrastructure, energy, health, and education needs. In addition, the ARRA imposes certain new executive compensation and corporate governance obligations on all current and future TARP recipients, including the Company, until the institution has
redeemed the preferred stock, which TARP recipients are now permitted to do under the ARRA without regard to the three-year holding period and without the need to raise new capital through a qualified equity offering, subject to approval of its
primary federal regulator. The executive compensation restrictions under the ARRA (described below) are more stringent than those initially enacted by EESA.

##### Table of Contents

The ARRA amended Section 111 of the EESA to require the Secretary to adopt additional standards with
respect to executive compensation and corporate governance for TARP recipients. The standards required to be established by the Secretary include, in part, (1) prohibitions on making golden parachute payments to senior executive officers and
the next 5 most highly-compensated employees during such time as any obligation arising from financial assistance provided under the TARP remains outstanding (the Restricted Period), (2) prohibitions on paying or accruing bonuses or
other incentive awards for certain senior executive officers and employees, except for awards of long-term restricted stock with a value equal to no greater than 1/3 of the subject employees annual compensation that do not fully vest during
the Restricted Period or unless such compensation is pursuant to a valid written employment contract prior to February 11, 2009, (3) requirements that TARP CPP participants provide for the recovery of any bonus or incentive compensation
paid to senior executive officers and the next 20 most highly-compensated employees based on statements of earnings, revenues, gains, or other criteria later found to be materially inaccurate, with the Secretary having authority to negotiate for
reimbursement, and (4) a review by the Secretary of all bonuses and other compensation paid by TARP participants to senior executive employees and the next 20 most highly-compensated employees before the date of enactment of the ARRA to
determine whether such payments were inconsistent with the purposes of the Act.

The ARRA also sets forth additional corporate governance
obligations for TARP recipients, including requirements for the Secretary to establish standards that provide for semi-annual meetings of compensation committees of the board of directors to discuss and evaluate employee compensation plans in light
of an assessment of any risk posed from such compensation plans. TARP recipients are further required by the ARRA to have in place company-wide policies regarding excessive or luxury expenditures, permit non-binding shareholder
say-on-pay proposals to be included in proxy materials, as well as require written certifications by the chief executive officer and chief financial officer with respect to compliance.

On June 15, 2009, the Treasury published its standards for executive compensation and corporate governance pursuant to ARRA.

Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation

Our customers deposit accounts are insured by the FDIC and, therefore, we are subject to insurance assessments imposed by the FDIC. On
November 2, 2006, the FDIC adopted final regulations establishing a risk-based assessment system that was intended to more closely tie each banks deposit insurance assessments to the risk it poses to the FDICs deposit insurance
fund. Under the risk-based assessment system, which became effective in the beginning of 2007, the FDIC evaluates each banks risk based on three primary factors: (1) its supervisory rating, (2) its financial ratios, and (3) its
long-term debt issuer rating, if applicable. The new rates may vary between 5 and 43 cents for every $100 of domestic deposits, depending on the insured institutions risk category.

On October 16, 2008, the FDIC published a restoration plan designed to replenish the DIF over a period of five years and to increase the deposit
insurance reserve ratio, which decreased to 1.01% of insured deposits on June 30, 2008, to the statutory minimum of 1.15% of insured deposits by December 31, 2013. On February 27, 2009, the FDIC published a final rule modifying the
risk-based assessment system and extended the period of restoration plan to seven years. In order to implement the restoration plan, the FDIC adjusted both its risk-based assessment system and its base assessment rates. For the first quarter of 2009
only, the FDIC increased all FDIC deposit assessment rates by 7 basis points. These new rates range from 12-14 basis points for Risk Category I institutions to 50 basis points for Risk Category IV institutions. Under the FDICs restoration
plan, the FDIC established a new initial base assessment rate that will be subject to adjustment as described below. Beginning April 1, 2009, the initial base assessment rates range from 12-16 basis points for Risk Category I institutions to 4
basis points for Risk Category IV institutions. Changes to the risk-based assessment system include increasing premiums for institutions that rely on excessive amounts of brokered deposits to fund rapid growth, excluding Certificate of Deposit
Account Registry Service (CDARS), increasing premiums for excessive use of secured liabilities, including Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances, lowering premiums for smaller institutions with very high capital levels, and
additional financial ratios and debt issuer ratings to the premium calculations for banks with over $10 billion in assets, while providing a reduction for their unsecured debt. After applying all possible adjustments, minimum and maximum total base
assessment rates range from 7-24 basis points for Risk Category I institutions to 40-77.5 basis points for Risk Category IV institutions. Either an increase in the Risk Category of the Bank or adjustments to the base assessment rates could have
material adverse effect on our earnings.

In addition, all institutions with deposits insured by the FDIC are required to pay assessments to fund
interest payments on bonds issued by the Financing Corporation, a mixed-ownership government corporation established to recapitalize a predecessor to the DIF. Our current annualized assessment rate is 1.14 basis points, or approximately 0.285 basis
points per quarter. These assessments will continue until the Financing Corporation bonds mature in 2019.

The FDIC insures our customer
deposits through the DIF up to prescribed limits for each depositor. Pursuant to the EESA, the maximum deposit insurance amount has been increased from $100,000 to $250,000 through the end of 2013. The amount of FDIC assessments paid by each DIF
member institution is based on its relative risk of default as measured by regulatory capital ratios and other supervisory factors. The FDIC is authorized to set the reserve ratio for the DIF annually between 1.15% and 1.50% of estimated insured
deposits. The FDIC may increase or decrease the assessment rate schedule on a semi-annual basis. In an effort to restore capitalization levels and to ensure the DIF will adequately cover projected losses from future bank failures, the FDIC, in
October 2008, proposed a rule to alter the way in which it differentiates for risk in the risk based assessment system and to revise deposit insurance assessment rates, including base assessment rates.

On February 27, 2009, the FDIC adopted a final rule modifying the risk based assessment system that set initial base assessment rates beginning
April 1, 2009 at 12 to 45 basis points and, due to extraordinary circumstances, extended the time within which the reserve ratio must by returned to 1.15% from five to seven years.

On May 22, 2009, the FDIC adopted a final rule imposing a 5 basis point special assessment on each insured depository institutions assets
minus Tier 1 capital as of June 30, 2009. The amount of the special assessment for any institution was limited to 10 basis points times the institutions assessment base for the second quarter 2009. The special assessment was collected on
September 30, 2009.

Additionally, by participating in the transaction account guarantee program under the TLGP, banks temporarily become
subject to an additional assessment on deposits in excess of $250,000 in certain transaction accounts and additionally for assessments from 50 basis points to 100 basis points per annum depending on the initial maturity of the debt. Further, all
FDIC insured institutions are required to pay assessments to the FDIC to fund interest payments on bonds issued by the Financing Corporation (FICO), an agency of the Federal Government established to recapitalize the predecessor to the
DIF. The FICO assessment rates, which are determined quarterly, averaged 0.0113% of insured deposits in fiscal 2008. These assessments will continue until the FICO bonds mature in 2017.

The FDIC may terminate a depository institutions deposit insurance upon a finding that the institutions financial condition is unsafe or
unsound or that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices that pose a risk to the DIF or that may prejudice the interest of the banks depositors. The termination of deposit insurance for a bank would also result in the
revocation of the banks charter.

FDIC Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program (TLGP)

On October 14, 2008, the FDIC announced the TLGP. The final rule was adopted on November 21, 2008. The FDIC stated that its purpose is to
strengthen confidence and encourage liquidity in the banking system by guaranteeing newly issued senior unsecured debt of banks of 31 days or greater, thrifts, and certain holding companies, and by providing full coverage of all noninterest-bearing
transaction deposit accounts, regardless of dollar amount. Inclusion in the program was voluntary. Participating institutions are assessed fees based on a sliding scale depending on length of maturity. Shorter-term debt has a lower fee structure and
longer-term debt has a higher fee. The range is from 50 basis points on debt of 180 days or less and a maximum of 100 basis points for debt with maturities of one year or longer, on an annualized basis. Through the TAGP, the FDIC also provides for
the insurance of all funds held by qualified institutions in noninterest-bearing transaction deposit accounts until December 31, 2010. As previously mentioned, there is a possibility that the TAGP may be extended for an additional 12 months. A
10-basis point surcharge over the institutions current assessment rate will be applied to those deposits not otherwise covered by the existing deposit insurance limit of $250,000. In addition, a special assessment fee will be collected to
cover any losses not covered by the fees to ensure no impact on the FDICs DIF. The Company elected to participate in the TLGP.

Federal Deposits Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (FDICIA)

FDICIA requires insured institutions with $1 billion or more in total assets at the beginning of their fiscal year to submit independently audited annual
reports to the FDIC and the appropriate agency.

These publicly available reports must include: (1) annual financial statements prepared
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and such other disclosure requirements as required by the FDIC or the appropriate agency and (2) a management report signed by the Chief Executive Officer and the
Chief Financial Officer or Chief Accounting Officer of the institution that contains a statement of managements responsibilities for: (i) preparing the annual financial statements; (ii) establishing and maintaining an adequate
internal control structure and procedures for financial reporting; and (iii) complying with the laws and regulations designed by the FDIC relating to safety and soundness and an assessment of: (aa) the effectiveness of the system of internal
control and procedures for financial reporting as of the end of the fiscal year and (bb) the institutions compliance during the fiscal year with applicable laws and regulations designed by the FDIC relating to safety and soundness.

With respect to any internal control report, the institutions independent public accountants must attest to, and report separately on, certain
assertions of the institutions management contained in such report. Any attestation by the independent accountant is to be made in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States for attestation engagements.

Capital Requirements

Each
of the FDIC and the Federal Reserve Bank (FRB) has issued risk-based and leverage capital guidelines applicable to banking organizations that it supervises. The federal capital standards define capital and establish minimum capital
requirements in relation to assets and off-balance sheet exposure as adjusted for credit risk. The risk-based capital standards currently in effect are designed to make regulatory capital requirements more sensitive to differences in risk profile
among bank holding companies and banks, to account for off-balance sheet exposure, and to minimize disincentives for holding liquid assets. Assets and off-balance sheet items are assigned to broad risk categories, each with appropriate risk weights.
The resulting capital ratios represent capital as a percentage of total risk-weighted assets and off-balance sheet items.

Under the
risk-based capital requirements, we and our bank subsidiaries are each generally required to maintain a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets (including specific off-balance sheet activities, such as standby letters of credit) of
8%. At least half of the total capital must be composed of Tier 1 Capital, which is defined as common equity, retained earnings, qualifying perpetual preferred stock, and minority interests in common equity accounts of consolidated
subsidiaries, less certain intangibles. The remainder may consist of Tier 2 Capital, which is defined as specific subordinated debt, some hybrid capital instruments and other qualifying preferred stock, and a limited amount of the loan
loss allowance and pretax net unrealized holding gains on certain equity securities. In addition, each of the federal banking regulatory agencies has established minimum leverage capital requirements for banking organizations. Under these
requirements, banking organizations must maintain a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to adjusted average quarterly assets equal to 3% to 5%, subject to federal bank regulatory evaluation of an organizations overall safety and soundness. In
summary, the capital measures used by the federal banking regulators are Total Risk-Based Capital ratio (the total of Tier 1 Capital and Tier 2 Capital as a percentage of total risk-weighted assets), Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital ratio (Tier 1 capital
divided by total risk-weighted assets), and the Leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital divided by adjusted average total assets). Under these regulations, a bank will be:



| |  |  | well capitalized if it has a Total Risk-Based Capital ratio of 10% or greater, a Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital ratio of 6% or greater, a
Leverage ratio of 5% or greater, and is not subject to any written agreement, order, capital directive, or prompt corrective action directive by a federal bank regulatory agency to meet and maintain a specific capital level for any capital measure,
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | adequately capitalized if it has a Total Risk-Based Capital ratio of 8% or greater, a Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital ratio of 4% or
greater, and a Leverage ratio of 4% or greater (or 3% in certain circumstances) and is not well capitalized,
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | undercapitalized if it has a Total Risk-Based Capital ratio of less than 8%, a Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital ratio of less than 4% (or 3%
in certain circumstances), or a Leverage ratio of less than 4% (or 3% in certain circumstances),
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | significantly undercapitalized if it has a Total Risk-Based Capital ratio of less than 6%, a Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital ratio of less
than 3%, or a Leverage ratio of less than 3%, or
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | critically undercapitalized if its tangible equity is equal to or less than 2% of tangible assets.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As of December 31, 2009, we believe the Company and BOHR were adequately capitalized under these regulations and that Shore was
well capitalized as of December 31, 2009.

The risk-based capital standards of each of the FDIC and the FRB explicitly
identify concentrations of credit risk and the risk arising from non-traditional activities, as well as an institutions ability to manage these risks, as important factors to be taken into account by the agency in assessing an
institutions overall capital adequacy. The capital guidelines also provide that an institutions exposure to a decline in the economic value of its capital due to changes in interest rates be considered by the agency as a factor in
evaluating a banking organizations capital adequacy.

Imposition of Liability for Undercapitalized Subsidiaries

Bank regulators are required to take prompt corrective action to resolve problems associated with insured depository institutions whose
capital declines below certain levels. In the event an institution becomes undercapitalized, it must submit a capital restoration plan. The capital restoration plan will not be accepted by the regulators unless each company having
control of the undercapitalized institution guarantees the subsidiarys compliance with the capital restoration plan up to a certain specified amount. Any such guarantee from a depository institutions holding company is entitled to a
priority of payment in bankruptcy. The aggregate liability of the holding company of an undercapitalized bank is limited to the lesser of 5% of the institutions assets at the time it became undercapitalized or the amount necessary to cause the
institution to be adequately capitalized. The bank regulators have greater power in situations where an institution becomes significantly or critically undercapitalized or fails to submit a capital restoration
plan. For example, a bank holding company controlling such an institution can be required to obtain prior Federal Reserve approval of proposed dividends or might be required to consent to a consolidation or to divest the troubled institution or
other affiliates.

The FDIC may take various corrective actions against any undercapitalized bank and any bank that fails to submit an
acceptable capital restoration plan or fails to implement a plan acceptable to the FDIC. These powers include, but are not limited to, requiring the institution to be recapitalized, prohibiting asset growth, restricting interest rates paid,
requiring prior approval of capital distributions by any bank holding company that controls the institution, requiring divestiture by the institution of its subsidiaries or by the holding company of the institution itself, requiring new election of
directors, and requiring the dismissal of directors and officers.

Other Safety and Soundness Regulations

There are significant obligations and restrictions imposed on bank holding companies and their depository institution subsidiaries by federal law and
regulatory policy that are designed to reduce potential loss exposure to the depositors of such depository institutions and to the FDIC insurance fund in the event that the depository institution is insolvent or is in danger of becoming insolvent.
These obligations and restrictions are not for the benefit of investors. Regulators may pursue an administrative action against any bank holding company or bank which violates the law, engages in an unsafe or unsound banking practice, or is about to
engage in an unsafe or unsound banking practice. The administrative action could take the form of a cease and desist proceeding, a removal action against the responsible individuals or, in the case of a violation of law or unsafe and unsound banking
practice, a civil monetary penalty action. A cease and desist order, in addition to prohibiting certain action, could also require that certain actions be undertaken. Under the policies of the FRB, we are required to serve as a source of financial
strength to our subsidiary depository institutions and to commit resources to support the banks in circumstances where we might not do so otherwise.

The Bank Secrecy Act (BSA)

Under the BSA, a financial institution is required to have systems in place to detect certain transactions, based on the size and nature of the
transaction. Financial institutions are generally required to report cash transactions involving more than $10,000 to the Treasury. In addition, financial institutions are required to file suspicious activity reports for transactions that involve
more than $5,000 and which the financial institution knows, suspects, or has reason to suspect involves illegal funds, is designed to evade the requirements of the BSA, or has no lawful purpose.

USA Patriot Act of 2001

In October
2001, the USA Patriot Act of 2001 was enacted in response to the terrorist attacks in New York, Pennsylvania, and Washington, D.C. that occurred on September 11, 2001. The Patriot Act is intended to strengthen U.S. law enforcement and the
intelligence communities abilities to work cohesively to combat terrorism on a variety of fronts. The Patriot Act contains sweeping anti-money laundering and financial transparency laws and imposes various regulations, including standards for
verifying client identification at account opening and rules to promote cooperation among financial institutions, regulators, and law enforcement entities in identifying parties that my be involved in terrorism or money laundering. The continuing
and potential impact of the Patriot Act and related regulations and policies on financial institutions of all kinds is significant and wide-ranging.

Monetary Policy

The commercial banking
business is affected not only by general economic conditions but also by the monetary policies of the FRB. The instruments of monetary policy employed by the Federal Reserve include open market operations in United States government securities,
changes in the discount rate on member bank borrowings, and changes in reserve requirements against deposits held by federally insured banks. The FRBs monetary policies have had a significant effect on the operating results of commercial banks
in the past and are expected to continue to do so in the future. In view of changing conditions in the national and international economies and in the money markets, as well as the effect of actions by monetary and fiscal authorities, including the
Federal Reserve System, no prediction can be made as to possible future changes in interest rates, deposit levels, loan demand, or the business and earnings of our bank subsidiaries, their subsidiaries, or any of our other subsidiaries.

Transactions with Affiliates

Transactions between banks and their affiliates are governed by Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act. An affiliate of a bank is any bank or
entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with such bank. Generally, Sections 23A and 23B (i) limit the extent to which the bank or its subsidiaries may engage in covered transactions with any one affiliate
to an amount equal to 10% of such institutions capital stock and surplus and maintain an aggregate limit on all such transactions with affiliates to an amount equal to 20% of such capital stock and surplus and (ii) require that all such
transactions be on terms substantially the same as, or at least as favorable to those that, the bank has provided to a non-affiliate.

The
term covered transaction includes the making of loans, purchase of assets, issuance of a guarantee, and similar other types of transactions. Section 23B applies to covered transactions as well as sales of assets and
payments of money to an affiliate. These transactions must also be conducted on terms substantially the same as, or at least favorable to those that, the bank has provided to non-affiliates.

We are aware of and previously disclosed to our regulators that $21.5 million of a loan from BOHR to the Company is inadequately secured in violation of
Regulation W promulgated by the Federal Reserve. The Company has been in discussions with banking regulators regarding the potential for repayment of this loan through possible capital raising efforts. Additionally, as of December 31, 2009, we
are aware of and previously disclosed to our regulators that loans from Shore to its affiliates exceeded the 20% threshold. We are discussing options to cure these violations with our regulators.

Loans to Insiders

The Federal Reserve
Act and related regulations impose specific restrictions on loans to directors, executive officers, and principal shareholders of banks. Under Section 22(h) of the Federal Reserve Act, loans to a director, an executive officer, and to a
principal shareholder of a bank as well as to entities controlled by any of the foregoing



13

##### Table of Contents

may not exceed, together with all other outstanding loans to such person and entities controlled by such person, the banks loan-to-one borrower limit. Loans in the aggregate to insiders and
their related interests as a class may not exceed two times the banks unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus until the banks total assets equal or exceed $100 million at which time the aggregate is limited to the banks
unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus. Section 22(h) also prohibits loans above amounts prescribed by the appropriate federal banking agency to directors, executive officers, and principal shareholders of a bank or bank holding company
and to entities controlled by such persons, unless such loan is approved in advance by a majority of the board of directors of the bank with any interested director not participating in the voting. The FDIC has prescribed the loan
amount, which includes all other outstanding loans to such person as to which such prior board of director approval is required, as being the greater of $25,000 or 5% of capital and surplus (up to $500,000). Section 22(h) requires that
loans to directors, executive officers, and principal shareholders be made on terms and underwriting standards substantially the same as offered in comparable transactions to other persons. As of December 31, 2009, there were no loans to
insiders and their related interests in the aggregate that exceeded the Companys or Banks unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus. However, BOHR currently has three outstanding loans that exceed the Banks loan-to-one borrower
limit by the following percentages: 10.4%, 16.6%, and 47.5%.

Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 (CRA)

Under the CRA and related regulations, depository institutions have an affirmative obligation to assist in meeting the credit needs of their market areas,
including low and moderate-income areas, consistent with safe and sound banking practice. The CRA requires the adoption by each institution of a CRA statement for each of its market areas describing the depository institutions efforts to
assist in its communitys credit needs. Depository institutions are periodically examined for compliance with the CRA and are periodically assigned ratings in this regard. Banking regulators consider a depository institutions CRA rating
when reviewing applications to establish new branches, undertake new lines of business, and/or acquire part or all of another depository institution. An unsatisfactory rating can significantly delay or even prohibit regulatory approval of a proposed
transaction by a bank holding company or its depository institution subsidiaries.

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) and federal
bank regulators have made various changes to the CRA. Among other changes, CRA agreements with private parties must be disclosed and annual reports must be made to a banks primary federal regulator. A bank holding company or any of its
subsidiaries will not be permitted to engage in new activities authorized under the GLBA if any bank subsidiary received less than a satisfactory rating in its latest CRA examination. During our last CRA exam, our rating was
satisfactory.

Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999

The GLBA covers a broad range of issues, including a repeal of most of the restrictions on affiliations among depository institutions, securities firms,
and insurance companies. The following description summarizes some of its significant provisions.

The GLBA provides that the states continue
to have the authority to regulate insurance activities but prohibits the states in most instances from preventing or significantly interfering with the ability of a bank, directly or through an affiliate, to engage in insurance sales, solicitations,
or cross-marketing activities. Although the states generally must regulate bank insurance activities in a nondiscriminatory manner, the states may continue to adopt and enforce rules that specifically regulate bank insurance activities in areas
identified under the law. Under the law, the federal bank regulatory agencies adopted insurance consumer protection regulations that apply to sales practices, solicitations, advertising, and disclosures.

The GLBA contains extensive customer privacy protection provisions. Under these provisions, a financial institution must provide to its customers, both
at the inception of the customer relationship and on an annual basis, the institutions policies and procedures regarding the handling of customers nonpublic personal financial information. The law provides that, except for specific
limited exceptions, an institution may not provide such personal information to unaffiliated third parties unless the institution discloses to the customer that such information may be so provided and the customer is given the opportunity to opt out
of such disclosure. An institution may not disclose to a non-affiliated third party, other than to a consumer credit reporting agency, customer account numbers or other similar account identifiers for marketing purposes. The GLBA also provides that
the states may adopt customer privacy protections that are stricter than those contained in the act.

##### Table of Contents

The GLBA repeals sections 20 and 32 of the Glass-Steagall Act, thus permitting unrestricted affiliations
between banks and securities firms.

Consumer Laws Regarding Fair Lending

In addition to the CRA described above, other federal and state laws regulate various lending and consumer aspects of our business. Governmental agencies,
including the Department of Housing and Urban Development, the Federal Trade Commission, and the Department of Justice, have become concerned that prospective borrowers may experience discrimination in their efforts to obtain loans from depository
and other lending institutions. These agencies have brought litigation against depository institutions alleging discrimination against borrowers. Many of these suits have been settled, in some cases for material sums of money, short of a full trial.

These governmental agencies have clarified what they consider to be lending discrimination and have specified various factors that they will
use to determine the existence of lending discrimination under the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and the Fair Housing Act, including evidence that a lender discriminated on a prohibited basis, evidence that a lender treated applicants differently
based on prohibited factors in the absence of evidence that the treatment was the result of prejudice or a conscious intention to discriminate, and evidence that a lender applied an otherwise neutral non-discriminatory policy uniformly to all
applicants but the practice had a discriminatory effect unless the practice could be justified as a business necessity.

Banks and other
depository institutions also are subject to numerous consumer-oriented laws and regulations. These laws, which include the Truth in Lending Act, the Truth in Savings Act, the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, the Electronic Funds Transfer Act,
the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, and the Fair Housing Act, require compliance by depository institutions with various disclosure requirements and requirements regulating the availability of funds after deposit or the making of some loans to
customers.

Future Regulatory Uncertainty

Because federal and state regulation of financial institutions changes regularly and is the subject of constant legislative debate, we cannot forecast how
federal and state regulation of financial institutions may change in the future and, as a result, impact our operations. Although Congress and the state legislature in recent years have sought to reduce the regulatory burden on financial
institutions with respect to the approval of specific transactions, we fully expect that the financial institution industry will remain heavily regulated in the near future and that additional laws or regulations may be adopted further regulating
specific banking practices.

Employees

As of December 31, 2009, we employed 699 people, of whom 694 were full-time employees.

Subsequent Events

Deferral of
Trust Preferred Dividends. In January 2010, the Company exercised its right to defer all quarterly distributions on the trust preferred securities it assumed in connection with its merger with GFH, which are identified immediately below
(collectively, the Trust Preferred Securities).

##### Table of Contents

On April 9, 2010, the Company exercised its right to continue the deferral of such quarterly distributions.
Interest payable under the Trust Preferred Securities continues to accrue during the deferral period and interest on the deferred interest also accrues, both of which must be paid at the end of the deferral period. Prior to the expiration of the
deferral period, the Company has the right to further defer interest payments, provided that no deferral period, together with all prior deferrals, exceeds 20 consecutive quarters and that no event of default (as defined by the terms of the
applicable Trust Preferred Securities) has occurred and is continuing at the time of the deferral. The Company was not in default with respect to the terms of the Trust Preferred Securities at the time the quarterly payments were deferred and such
deferrals did not cause an event of default under the terms of the Trust Preferred Securities.

Non-Compliance Notice from the
NASDAQ Stock Market. On April 1, 2010, the Company received a non-compliance notice from the NASDAQ Stock Market stating that because the Company did not timely file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31,
2009, it is no longer in compliance with the rules for continued listing, including Rule 5250(c)(l). NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5250(c)(l) requires the Company to file with NASDAQ, on a timely basis, all reports and other documents required to be filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company believes that it will regain compliance with NASDAQs listing rules upon the filing of this Form 10-K and will seek confirmation from NASDAQ accordingly.

ITEM 1A  RISK
FACTORS

An investment in our Common Stock involves risks. You should carefully consider the risks described below in conjunction with the
other information in this Form 10-K, including our consolidated financial statements and related notes, before investing in our Common Stock. In addition to the other information contained in this report, the following risks may affect us. This Form
10-K contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including statements about our future plans, objectives, intentions and expectations. Past results are not a reliable indicator of future results, and historical trends
should not be used to anticipate results or trends in future periods. Many factors, including those described below, could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in forward-looking statements.

Risks Relating to our Business

We
incurred significant losses in 2009 and may continue do so in the future and we can make no assurances as to when we will be profitable.

The Company reported a net loss for 2009 of approximately $145.5million, primarily a result of a provision for loan losses of
$134.2million, a goodwill impairment charge of $84.8 million, and a loss on investments due to an other-than-temporary impairment charge on available-for-sale securities of $2.5million. In light of the current economic
environment, significant additional provisions for loan losses may be necessary to supplement the allowance for loan losses in the future. As a result, we may incur significant credit costs in 2010, which would continue to adversely impact our
financial condition and results of operations and the value of our Common Stock.

We need to raise additional capital that may not be available to us.

Regulatory authorities require us to maintain certain levels of capital to support our operations. As described above, we are adequately
capitalized and have an immediate need to raise capital. In addition, even if we succeed in raising this capital, we may need to raise additional capital in the future due to additional losses or regulatory mandates. The ability to raise
additional capital, if needed, will depend in part on conditions in the capital markets at that time, which are outside our control, and on our financial performance.

Accordingly, additional capital may not be raised, if and when needed, on terms acceptable to us, or at all. If we cannot raise additional capital when
needed, our ability to increase our capital ratios could be materially impaired, and we could face additional regulatory challenges. In addition, if we issue additional equity capital, it may be at a lower price and in all cases our existing
shareholders interest would be diluted.

We may not be able to successfully maintain our regulatory capital, which may adversely
affect our results of operations and financial condition.

We may need to raise further capital in the future to sustain our capital
levels. As indicated above, our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional securities will depend primarily upon our financial condition and the condition of financial markets at that time. Our regulatory capital at December 31,
2009, was $44.7 million below the level required to be considered well-capitalized on a consolidated basis under the regulations of the Federal Reserve. If we fall further below this level, we could face additional regulatory action that
could limit our future operations, and we may not be able to obtain additional capital in satisfactory amounts or terms or at all. Our growth or financial condition may be constrained if we are unable to raise capital as needed.

BOHR is restricted from accepting brokered deposits and offering interest rates on deposits that are substantially higher than the prevailing rates
in our market.

During the fourth quarter of 2009, the regulatory risk-based capital ratios of BOHR declined significantly largely due
to significant additional provisions to our allowance for loan losses. While BOHRs ratios were still above levels required to be considered adequately capitalized at December 31, 2009, it was not considered
well-capitalized under regulatory guidelines. The impact of not maintaining a well-capitalized status is of concern in that it could jeopardize our ability to acquire needed funding through sources such as brokered deposits,
FHLB advances, or unsecured federal funds credit lines and could tighten our liquidity through damages to our reputation in our deposit service areas. This could also lead to increased scrutiny by regulatory agencies and possible sanctions. In
response to our declining capital position, we could improve our capital position with additional issuances of equity securities. We may also limit or postpone future asset growth or even shrink our assets in order to maintain appropriate regulatory
capital levels. These efforts, however, may not be successful. Current and future restrictions on the conduct of our business could adversely impact our ability to attract deposits.

Section 29 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (FDIA) limits the use of brokered deposits by institutions that are less than
well-capitalized and allows the FDIC to place restrictions on interest rates that institutions may pay. Because BOHR is no longer considered well capitalized for regulatory purposes, it is, among other restrictions,
prohibited from paying rates in excess of 75 basis points above the national market average on deposits of comparable maturity. Effective January 1, 2010, financial institutions that are not well capitalized will be prohibited from
paying yields for deposits in excess of 75 basis points above a new national average rate for deposits of comparable maturity, as calculated by the FDIC, except in very limited circumstances where the FDIC permits use of a higher local market rate.
The national rate may be lower than the prevailing rates in our local markets, and BOHR (if it is unable to regain well capitalized status) may not be able to secure the permission of the FDIC to use a local market rate. If restrictions
on the rates our Banks are able to pay on deposit accounts negatively impacts their ability to compete for deposits in our market area, our Banks may be unable to attract or maintain core deposits, and their liquidity and ability to support demand
for loans could be adversely affected.

Because we believe Shore met the definition of well capitalized at December 31, 2009,
it is not subject to these restrictions.

##### Table of Contents

We expect to enter into a written agreement with the Federal Reserve, which will require us to
designate a significant amount of resources to complying with the agreement.

We expect that we will enter into a written agreement
with the Federal Reserve in the next few months.While we do not know the exact contents of the written agreement at this time, it could, among other things, inhibit our ability to grow assets or open new branch offices. We expect that it
might require us to take certain actions, including but not limited to establishing and submitting the following to the Federal Reserve:



| |  |  | A written plan to strengthen oversight of our management and operations by our board of directors,
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | A written assessment of our management and staffing needs and the qualifications of our senior management to ensure that we are adequately staffed by
adequate personnel,
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | A written plan to strengthen our management of commercial real estate concentrations, including steps to reduce or mitigate the risk of concentrations
in light of current market conditions,
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | A written plan to strengthen our credit risk management practices,
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | A written program for the ongoing review and risk grading procedures of our loan portfolio,
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | A written program for the maintenance of an adequate allowance for loan losses, including a methodology consistent with relevant supervisory guidance
and policies and procedures to ensure adherence to the revised methodology,
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | A written plan to maintain sufficient capital at BOHR,
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | A written plan designed to improve management of our liquidity position and funds management practices, and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | A written contingency funding plan that, at a minimum, identifies available sources of liquidity and includes adverse scenario planning.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, we expect that the written agreement might require us to implement plans to appoint a committee of our board
of directors to monitor and coordinate compliance with the provisions of the written agreement. Any written plans, programs, or assessments required by the written agreement with the Federal Reserve will require approval by the Federal Reserve and
prompt implementation upon receipt of such approval. While subject to the written agreement, we expect that our management and board of directors will be required to focus considerable time and attention on taking corrective actions to comply with
its terms.

There also is no guarantee that we will successfully address the Federal Reserves concerns in the anticipated written
agreement or that we will be able to comply with it. If we do not comply with the anticipated written agreement, we could be subject to the assessment of civil monetary penalties, further regulatory sanctions and/or regulatory enforcement actions.

We may become subject to additional regulatory restrictions in the event that our regulatory capital levels continue to decline.

Although we believe the Company and BOHR both qualified as adequately capitalized and Shore qualified as
well-capitalized under the regulatory framework, as of December 31, 2009, the additional regulatory restrictions resulting from the decline in our capital category, or any further decline, could have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and/or future prospects.

If a state member bank is classified as
undercapitalized, that bank is required to submit a capital restoration plan to the Federal Reserve. Pursuant to FDICIA, an undercapitalized bank is prohibited from increasing its assets, engaging in a new line of business,
acquiring any interest in any company or insured depository institution, or opening or acquiring a new branch office, except under certain circumstances, including the acceptance by the Federal Reserve of a capital restoration plan for the bank.
Furthermore, if a state non-member bank is classified as undercapitalized, the FDIC may take certain actions to correct the capital position of the bank; if a bank is classified as significantly undercapitalized or
critically undercapitalized, the Federal Reserve would be required to take one or more prompt corrective actions. These actions would include, among other things, requiring sales of new securities to bolster capital, improvements in
management, limits on interest rates paid, prohibitions on transactions with affiliates, termination of certain risky activities, and restrictions on compensation paid to executive officers. If a bank is classified as critically
undercapitalized, FDICIA requires the bank to be placed into conservatorship or receivership within 90 days, unless the Federal Reserve determines that other action would better achieve the purposes of FDICIA regarding prompt corrective action
with respect to undercapitalized banks.

Under FDICIA, banks may be restricted in their ability from accepting broker deposits, depending on
their capital classification. Well-capitalized banks are permitted to accept broker deposits, but all banks that are not well-capitalized could be restricted to accept such deposits. The FDIC may, on a case-by-case basis,
permit banks that are adequately capitalized, such as BOHR, to accept broker deposits if the FDIC determines that acceptance of such deposits would not constitute an unsafe or unsound banking practice with respect to the bank. These
restrictions could materially and adversely affect our ability to access lower cost funds and thereby decrease our future earnings capacity.

Our financial flexibility could be severely constrained if we are unable to renew our wholesale funding or if adequate financing is not available in the
future at acceptable rates of interest. We may not have sufficient liquidity to continue to fund new loan originations, and we may need to liquidate loans or other assets unexpectedly in order to repay obligations as they mature. Our inability to
obtain regulatory consent to accept or renew brokered deposits could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and/or future prospects.

##### Table of Contents

Finally, the capital classification of a bank affects the frequency of examinations of the bank, the deposit
insurance premiums paid by such bank, and the ability of the bank to engage in certain activities, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and/or future prospects.
Under FDICIA, the FDIC is required to conduct a full-scope, on-site examination of every bank at least once every twelve months, subject to certain exceptions.

Our estimate for losses in our loan portfolio may be inadequate, which would cause our results of operations and financial condition to be
adversely affected.

We maintain an allowance for loan losses, which is a reserve established through a provision for possible loan
losses charged to our expenses and represents managements best estimate of probable losses within our existing portfolio of loans. Our allowance for loan losses amounted to $132.7 million at December 31, 2009, as compared to $99.2 million
at September 30, 2009 and $51.2 million at December 31, 2008. The level of the allowance reflects managements estimates and judgments as to specific credit risks, evaluation of industry concentrations, loan loss experience, current
loan portfolio quality, present economic, political, and regulatory conditions, and unidentified losses inherent in the current loan portfolio, which have been increasing in light of recent economic conditions. The determination of the appropriate
level of the allowance for loan losses inherently involves a high degree of subjectivity and requires management to make significant estimates of current credit risks and future trends, all of which may undergo material changes. Any such increases
in the allowance for loan losses may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, and the value of our Common Stock.

We have had and may continue to have large numbers of problem loans and difficulties with our loan administration, which could increase our losses
related to loans.

Our non-performing assets as a percentage of total assets increased to 8.64% at December 31, 2009 from 1.34% at
December 31, 2008 and 6.28% at September 30, 2009. On December 31, 2009, over 1.9% of our loans are 30 to 89 days delinquent and are treated as performing assets. Based on these delinquencies, we expect more loans to become
non-performing. The administration of non-performing loans is an important function in attempting to mitigate any future losses related to our non-performing assets.

In the past, our management of non-performing loans was, at times, not as strong as we would prefer. In 2009, we hired an independent third party to
review a significant portion of our loans. The independent third party discovered several issues with our loan management that we have since taken significant remedial steps to address. The following issues were identified: updated appraisals on
problem loans and large loans secured by real estate were not always being obtained; better organized credit files; additional resources were needed to manage problem loans; and lack of well-defined internal workout policies and procedures.

A variety of initiatives were undertaken in 2009 to remediate the conditions noted above as well as other enhancements to our credit review
and collection processes. Initiatives and procedures which augmented the credit administration function included acquisition and development loan reviews, interest reserve loan reviews, past due loan reviews, forecasting reviews, standard loan
reviews, loans presented for approval and renewal, relationship reviews, and global cash flow analyses. We have improved the organization of our credit files and have made efforts to attain appraisal updates in a more timely manner. In addition to
the internal review of credit quality, we engaged an independent credit consulting firm to conduct an analysis of our loan portfolio. We also increased staffing in credit administration and established and staffed a separate special assets function
to manage problem assets.

Although we have made significant enhancements to our loan management processes to address these issues, we can
give you no assurances that we will be able to successfully manage our problem loans, our loan administration, and origination process. If we are unable to do so in a timely manner, our loan losses could increase significantly and this could have a
material adverse effect on our results of operations and the value of, or market for, our Common Stock.

Our lack of eligibility to continue to use a short form registration statement on Form S-3 may affect
our short-term ability to access the capital markets.

Any resulting delay in the ability to regain S-3 eligibility may result in
offering terms that may not be advantageous to us. The ability to conduct primary offerings under a registration statement on Form S-3 has benefits to issuers who are eligible to use this short form registration statement. Form S-3 permits an
eligible issuer to incorporate by reference its past and future filings and reports made under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. In addition, Form S-3 enables eligible issuers to conduct primary offerings
off the shelf under Rule 415 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act. The shelf registration process under Form S-3, combined with the ability to incorporate information on a forward basis, allows issuers to
avoid additional delays and interruptions in the offering process and to access the capital markets in a more expeditious and efficient manner than raising capital in a standard registered offering on Form S-1. The ability to register securities for
resale may also be limited as a result of the loss of S-3 eligibility.

One of the requirements for Form S-3 eligibility is for an issuer to
have remained current on all of its cumulative dividend payments. During 2009, we suspended the payment of dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock, which pays cumulative dividends. In addition, we have been unable to pay our trust preferred
dividend payments as of late. Another requirement for Form S-3 eligibility is for an issuer to have timely filed its Exchange Act reports (including Forms 10-K, 10-Q and certain Forms 8-K) for the 12-month period and any portion of the month
immediately before the filing of such Form S-3. We were unable to timely file this Form 10-K. Without Form S-3 eligibility, we may experience delays in our ability to raise capital in the capital markets until we are current on all cumulative
dividend payments. Assuming we were to become current on all cumulative dividend payments prior to the end of 2010 and timely file our required Exchange Act reports for approximately the next 12 months, the earliest we could regain the ability to
use Form S-3 is April 1, 2011.

If our Company were to suffer loan losses similar in amounts to those that may be predicted by a SCAP
test, they could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and the price, and market for, our Common Stock.

The
Treasury, in connection with its Supervisory Capital Assessment Program (SCAP), in 2009 administered a stress or SCAP test to the nations 19 largest banks based upon their loan balances at December 31, 2008. It has not
administered a SCAP test to our company. The SCAP test is based on a 2-year cumulative loan loss assumption that represents two scenarios, a baseline and more adverse than expected scenario. These scenarios are not forecasts
or projections of expected loan losses. However, if the SCAP test were to be applied, as of December 31, 2008, we believe our potential cumulative loan losses over the next two years under the baseline scenario may be $170 million,
and under the more adverse scenario may be $280 million. These scenarios do not take into account our existing loan loss allowance or existing loan mark downs, so our future loan loss provision could be significantly less than these
amounts. Nevertheless, if our Company were to suffer loan losses similar in amounts to those that may be predicted by a SCAP test, they could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and the price, and market for, our stock.

We have recently had significant turnover in our senior management team, and this turnover could negatively impact our future results
of operations.

Our success depends substantially on the skill and abilities of our executive officers and senior lending officers. The
recent loss of key personnel has disrupted our operations. During the first three quarters of 2009, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, the President of the Company (and former Chief Executive Officer of Gateway), the Chief Credit Officer,
and the President of Shore resigned. We have now filled many of these positions, most recently hiring our new Chief Credit Officer in October 2009. We hired our new President and Chief Executive Officer in July 2009 and Executive Vice President and
Chief Financial Officer in February 2009. In 2009, the Company established a special assets group and hired a Senior Vice President to lead the group. We cannot guarantee you that this new management team will be successful in executing our strategy
and improving our current results of operations.

Governmental regulation and regulatory actions against us may impair our operations or
restrict our growth.

We are subject to significant governmental supervision and regulation. These regulations are intended primarily
for the protection of depositors, rather than shareholders. Statutes and regulations affecting our business may be changed at any time and the interpretation of these statutes and regulations by examining authorities may also change. Within the last
several years, Congress and the President have passed and enacted significant changes to these

##### Table of Contents

statutes and regulations. There can be no assurance that such changes to the statutes and regulations or to their interpretation will not adversely affect our business. In addition to
governmental supervision and regulation, we are subject to changes in other federal and state laws, including changes in tax laws, which could materially affect the banking industry. We are subject to the rules and regulations of the Federal
Reserve. If we fail to comply with federal and state bank regulations, the regulators may limit our activities or growth and impose monetary penalties, which could severely limit or end our operations. Banking laws and regulations change from time
to time. Bank regulations can hinder our ability to compete with financial services companies that are not regulated in the same manner or are less regulated. Federal and state bank regulatory agencies regulate many aspects of our operations. These
areas include:



| |  |  | The level of capital that must be maintained;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The kinds of activities that can be engaged in;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The kinds and amounts of investments that can be made;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The locations of our financial centers;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------



| |  |  | Insurance of deposits and the premiums that we must pay for this insurance; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The amount of cash we must set aside as reserves for deposits.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------

Bank regulatory authorities have the authority to bring enforcement actions against banks and bank holding companies for unsafe or unsound practices in
the conduct of their businesses or for violations of any law, rule or regulation, any condition imposed in writing by the appropriate bank regulatory agency or any written agreement with the authority.

We are aware of and previously disclosed to our regulators that $21.5 million of a loan from BOHR to the Company is inadequately secured in violation of
Regulation W promulgated by the Federal Reserve. Additionally, as of December 31, 2009, we are aware of and previously disclosed to our regulators that loans from Shore to its affiliates exceeded 20% of its capital stock and surplus. Possible
enforcement actions against us could include the issuance of a cease-and-desist order that could be judicially enforced; the imposition of civil monetary penalties; the issuance of directives to increase capital or enter into a strategic
transaction, whether by merger or otherwise, with a third party; the appointment of a conservator or receiver; the termination of insurance of deposits; the issuance of removal and prohibition orders against institution-affiliated parties; and the
enforcement of such actions through injunctions or restraining orders. Any such regulatory action may have a material adverse effect on our ability to operate our bank subsidiaries and execute our strategy.

If the value of real estate in the markets we serve were to decline materially, a significant portion of our loan portfolio could become
under-collateralized, which could have a material adverse effect on us.

With approximately three-fourths of our loans concentrated in
the regions of Hampton Roads and Richmond of Virginia, the Eastern Shore of Maryland, and the Triangle region of North Carolina, a decline in local economic conditions could adversely affect the value of the real estate collateral securing our
loans. Moreover, our markets in Wilmington, North Carolina and the Outer Banks of North Carolina have been especially hard hit by recent declines in real estate values. A further decline in property values would diminish our ability to recover on
defaulted loans by selling the real estate collateral, making it more likely that we would suffer losses on defaulted loans. Additionally, a decrease in asset quality could require additions to our allowance for loan losses through increased
provisions for loan losses, which would negatively impact our profits. Also, a decline in local economic conditions may have a greater effect on our earnings and capital than on the earnings and capital of financial institutions whose real estate
loan portfolios are more geographically diverse. Real estate values are affected by various factors in addition to local economic conditions, including, among other things, changes in general or regional economic conditions, governmental rules or
policies, and natural disasters.

Our construction and land development, commercial real estate, and equity line lending may expose us
to a greater risk of loss and hurt our earnings and profitability.

Our business strategy centers, in part, on offering construction
and land development, commercial, and equity line loans secured by real estate in order to generate interest income. These types of loans generally have higher yields and shorter maturities than traditional one-to-four family residential mortgage
loans. At December 31, 2009, construction and land development, commercial, and residential loans secured by real estate totaled $2.0 billion, which represented 83% of total loans. Such loans increase our credit risk profile relative to other
financial institutions that have higher concentrations of one-to-four family loans.

Loans secured by commercial or land development real
estate properties are generally for larger amounts and involve a greater degree of risk than one-to-four family residential mortgage loans. Payments on loans secured by these properties generally are dependent on the income produced by the
underlying properties which, in turn, depends on the successful operation and management of the properties. Accordingly, repayment of these loans is subject to adverse conditions in the real estate market or the local economy. While we seek to
minimize these risks in a variety of ways, there can be no assurance that these measures will protect against credit-related losses.

Construction financing typically involves a higher degree of credit risk than financing on improved, owner-occupied real estate. Risk of loss on a
construction loan is largely dependent upon the accuracy of the initial estimate of the propertys value at completion of construction, the marketability of the property, and the bid price and estimated cost (including interest) of
construction. If the estimate of construction costs proves to be inaccurate, we may be required to advance funds beyond the amount originally committed to permit completion of the project. If the estimate of the value proves to be inaccurate, we may
be confronted, at or prior to the maturity of the loan, with a project whose value is insufficient to assure full repayment. When lending to builders, the cost of construction breakdown is provided by the builder, as well as supported by the
appraisal. Although our underwriting criteria are designed to evaluate and minimize the risks of each construction loan, there can be no guarantee that these practices will safeguard against material delinquencies and losses to our operations.

At December 31, 2009, we had loans of $757.7 million or 31% of total loans outstanding to finance construction and land development.
Construction and land development loans are dependent on the successful completion of the projects they finance, however, in many cases such construction and development projects in our primary market areas are not being completed in a timely
manner, if at all.

Equity line loans typically involve a greater degree of risk than one-to-four family residential mortgage loans. Equity
line lending allows a customer to access an amount up to their line of credit for the term specified in their agreement. At the expiration of the term of an equity line, a customer may have the entire principal balance outstanding as opposed to a
one-to-four family residential mortgage loan where the principal is disbursed entirely at closing and amortizes throughout the term of the loan. We cannot predict when and to what extent our customers will access their equity lines. While we seek to
minimize this risk in a variety of ways, including attempting to employ conservative underwriting criteria, there can be no assurance that these measures will protect against credit-related losses.

Our lending on vacant land may expose us to a greater risk of loss and may have an adverse effect on results of operations.

A portion of our residential and commercial lending is secured by vacant or unimproved land. Loans secured by vacant or unimproved land are generally more
risky than loans secured by improved property for one-to-four family residential mortgage loans. Since vacant or unimproved land is generally held by the borrower for investment purposes or future use, payments on loans secured by vacant or
unimproved land will typically rank lower in priority to the borrower than a loan the borrower may have on their primary residence or business. These loans are susceptible to adverse conditions in the real estate market and local economy. At
December 31, 2009, loans secured by vacant or unimproved property totaled $55.3 million or 2% of our loan portfolio.

Difficult
market conditions have adversely affected our industry.

The global and U.S. economies continue to experience a protracted slowdown in
business activity as a result of disruptions in the financial system, including a lack of confidence in the worldwide credit markets. Currently, the U.S. economy remains in the midst of one of its longest economic recessions in recent history.
Dramatic declines in the housing market over the past 18 months, with falling home prices and increasing foreclosures, unemployment, and under-employment, have negatively impacted the credit performance of real estate related loans and resulted in
significant write-downs of asset values by financial institutions. These write-downs, initially of asset-backed

securities but spreading to other securities and loans, have caused many financial institutions to seek additional capital, to reduce or eliminate dividends, to merge with larger and stronger
institutions and, in some cases, to fail. Reflecting concern about the stability of the financial markets generally and the strength of counterparties, many lenders and institutional investors have reduced or ceased providing funding to borrowers,
including to other financial institutions. Market turmoil and tightening of credit have led to an increased level of commercial and consumer delinquencies, lack of consumer confidence, increased market volatility, and widespread reduction of
business activity generally. The resulting economic pressure on consumers and lack of confidence in the financial markets could continue to adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Market developments may
continue to affect consumer confidence levels and may cause adverse changes in payment patterns, causing increases in delinquencies and default rates, which may impact our charge-offs and provision for credit losses. A worsening of these conditions
would likely exacerbate the adverse effects of these difficult market conditions on us and could have a material adverse effect on the value of, or market for, our Common Stock.

A significant part of Gateways loan portfolio is unseasoned, and we can give no assurances as to the levels of future losses related to that
portfolio.

On December 31, 2008, we acquired Gateway. From the beginning of 2007 through September 30, 2008, Gateways
loan portfolio grew by approximately 21%, including approximately $166 million in loans acquired as a result of its 2007 acquisition of The Bank of Richmond, N.A. It is difficult to assess the future potential performance of this part of
Gateways loan portfolio due to the relatively recent origination of these loans, as it can take several years for loan difficulties to become apparent. We can give no assurance regarding the extent to which these loans may become
non-performing or delinquent, leading to future losses.

We are not paying dividends on our preferred stock or Common Stock and are
deferring distributions on our Trust Preferred Securities, and we are prevented in otherwise paying cash dividends on our Common Stock. The failure to resume paying dividends on our Series C Preferred Stock and Trust Preferred Securities may
adversely affect us.

We historically paid cash dividends prior to the third quarter of 2009. During the third quarter of 2009, we
suspended dividend payments on our Common Stock. In the fourth quarter of 2009, we also suspended Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock dividends and began to defer dividends on our Series C Preferred Stock and on our Trust Preferred
Securities.

We are prevented from paying dividends until our financial position improves. There is no assurance that we will be able to
resume paying cash dividends. Even if allowed to resume paying dividends again, future payment of cash dividends on our Common Stock, if any, will be subject to the prior payment of all unpaid dividends and deferred distributions on our Series C
Preferred Stock and Trust Preferred Securities.

In addition, all dividends are declared and paid at the discretion of our board of directors
and are dependent upon our liquidity, financial condition, results of operations, regulatory capital requirements, and such other factors as our board of directors may deem relevant. Further, dividend payments on our Series C Preferred Stock and
distributions on our Trust Preferred Securities are cumulative, and therefore, unpaid dividends and distributions will accrue and compound on each subsequent dividend payment date. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the
affairs of the Company, holders of the Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive for each share of Series C Preferred Stock the liquidation amount plus the amount of any accrued and unpaid dividends. If we miss six quarterly dividend
payments, whether or not consecutive, the Treasury will have the right to appoint two directors to our board of directors until all accrued but unpaid dividends have been paid. We cannot pay dividends on our outstanding shares of Series C Preferred
Stock or our Common Stock until we have paid in full all deferred distributions on our Trust Preferred Securities.

The ability of our banking
subsidiaries to pay dividends to us is limited by obligations to maintain sufficient capital and by other general restrictions on dividends that are applicable to our banking subsidiaries. If we do not satisfy these regulatory requirements, we are
unable to pay dividends on our Common Stock. Holders of our Common Stock are only entitled to receive such dividends as our board of directors may declare out of funds legally available for such payments. We are subject to formal regulatory
restrictions that do not permit us to declare or pay any

dividend without the prior written approval of our banking regulators. Although we can seek to obtain a waiver of this prohibition, banking regulators may choose not to grant such a waiver, and
we would not expect to be granted a waiver or be released from this obligation until our financial performance improves significantly. Therefore, we may not be able to resume payments of dividends in the future.

The Company can give no assurances that its deferred tax asset will not become impaired in the future because it is based on projections of future
earnings, which are subject to uncertainty and estimates that may change based on economic conditions.

The Company can give no
assurances that its deferred tax asset will not become impaired in the future. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company recorded net deferred income tax assets of approximately $56.4 million and $32.6 million, respectively. The realization
of deferred income tax assets is assessed and a valuation allowance is recorded if it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. More likely than not is defined as greater
than a 50% chance. All available evidence, both positive and negative, is considered to determine whether, based on the weight of that evidence, a valuation allowance is needed. Managements assessment is primarily dependent on historical
taxable income and projects of future taxable income, which are directly related to the Companys core earnings capacity and its prospects to generate core earnings in the future. Projections of core earnings and taxable income are inherently
subject to uncertainty and estimates that may change given an uncertain economic outlook and current banking industry conditions. Due to the uncertainty of estimates and projections, it is possible that the Company will be required to record
adjustments to the valuation allowance in future reporting periods.

Our ability to maintain adequate sources of funding may be
negatively impacted by the current economic environment which may, among other things, impact our ability to resume the payment of dividends or satisfy our obligations.

Our access to funding sources in amounts adequate to finance our activities on terms which are acceptable to us could be impaired by factors that affect
us specifically or the financial services industry or economy in general. In managing our balance sheet, a primary source of funding is customer deposits. The amount of our certificates of deposit has decreased during 2009, primarily due to interest
rate fluctuations. Our ability to continue to attract these deposits and other funding sources is subject to variability based upon a number of factors including volume and volatility in the securities markets and the relative interest rates that we
are prepared to pay for these liabilities. Further, BOHR is prohibited from obtaining or renewing brokered deposits because it is not well-capitalized. BOHR, because it is not well capitalized, is further prohibited from
paying rates in excess of 75 basis points above the national market average. At December 31, 2009, our total risk based capital was $44.7 million below the minimum standard for being well-capitalized on a consolidated basis. Our
potential inability to maintain adequate sources of funding may, among other things, impact our ability to resume the payment of dividends or satisfy our obligations.

Our ability to maintain adequate sources of liquidity may be negatively impacted by the current economic environment which may, among other things,
impact our ability to pay dividends or satisfy our obligations.

Liquidity is essential to our business. An inability to raise funds
through deposits, borrowings, the sale of investments or loans, the issuance of equity and debt securities, and other sources could have a substantial negative affect on our liquidity. Factors that could detrimentally impact our access to liquidity
sources include operating losses; rising levels of non-performing assets; a decrease in the level of our business activity as a result of a downturn in the markets in which our loans or deposits are concentrated or as a result of a loss of
confidence in us by our customers, lenders, and/or investors; or adverse regulatory action against us. Our ability to borrow could also be impaired by factors that are not specific to us, such as a disruption in the financial markets or negative
views and expectations about the prospects for the financial industry in light of the turmoil faced by banking organizations and the continued deterioration in credit markets. Under current market conditions, the confidence of depositors, lenders,
and investors is critical to our ability to maintain our sources of liquidity.

The management of liquidity risk is critical to the management
of our business and to our ability to service our customer base. In managing our balance sheet, a primary source of liquidity is customer deposits. Our ability to continue to attract these deposits and other funding sources is subject to variability
based upon a number of factors

including volume and volatility in the securities markets and the relative interest rates that we are prepared to pay for these liabilities. The availability and level of deposits and other
funding sources, including borrowings and the issuance of equity and debt securities, is highly dependent upon the perception of the liquidity and creditworthiness of the financial institution, which such perception can change quickly in response to
market conditions or circumstances unique to a particular company. Concerns about our financial condition or concerns about our credit exposure to other persons could adversely impact our sources of liquidity, financial position, regulatory capital
ratios, results of operations, and our business prospects. If our capital ratios or liquidity position further deteriorate, we potentially face regulatory action, including a takeover of BOHR.

We sustained a large operating loss in 2009 and we may experience another loss in 2010. Our non-performing assets are at high levels and continue to
rise. Our capital has been reduced by the operating loss, and we were unsuccessful in 2009 in raising additional capital. We face the possibility of entering into an agreement with regulators that may require certain actions on our part and impose
certain restrictions on our activities. These factors may have an adverse impact on our sources of liquidity.

The current economic
environment may negatively impact our ability to maintain required capital levels or otherwise negatively impact our financial condition, which may, among other things, limit our access to certain sources of funding and liquidity.

If the level of deposits were to materially decrease, we would have to raise additional funds by increasing the interest that we pay
on certificates of deposit or other depository accounts, seek other debt or equity financing or draw upon our available lines of credit. We rely on commercial, retail, and brokered deposits as well as advances from the FHLB and the Federal Reserve
discount window to fund our operations. Although we have historically been able to replace maturing deposits and advances as necessary, we might not be able to replace such funds in the future if, among other things, our results of operations or
financial condition or the results of operations or financial condition of the FHLB or market conditions were to change or because we are restricted from doing so by regulatory restrictions. For example, BOHR is prohibited from obtaining brokered
deposits because it is not well-capitalized. Additionally, the FHLB or Federal Reserve could limit our access to additional borrowings. We constantly monitor our activities with respect to liquidity and evaluate closely our utilization
of our cash assets; however, there can be no assurance that our liquidity or the cost of funds to us may not be materially and adversely impacted as a result of economic, market or operational considerations that we may not be able to control.

We may face increasing deposit-pricing pressures, which may, among other things, reduce our profitability.

Deposit pricing pressures may result from competition as well as changes to the interest rate environment. Under current conditions, pricing pressures
also may arise from depositors who demand premium interest rates from what they perceive to be a troubled financial institution. Current economic conditions have intensified competition for deposits. The competition has had an impact on interest
rates paid to attract deposits as well as fees charged on deposit products. In addition to the competitive pressures from other depository institutions, we face heightened competition from non-depository financial products such as securities and
other alternative investments. Furthermore, technology and other market changes have made it more convenient for bank customers to transfer funds for investing purposes. Bank customers also have greater access to deposit vehicles that facilitate
spreading deposit balances among different depository institutions to maximize FDIC insurance coverage. In addition to competitive forces, we also are at risk from market forces as they affect interest rates. It is not uncommon when interest rates
transition from a low interest rate environment to a rising rate environment for deposit and other funding costs to rise in advance of yields on earning assets. In order to keep deposits required for funding purposes, it may be necessary to raise
deposit rates without commensurate increases in asset pricing in the short term. Finally, we may see interest rate pricing pressure from depositors concerned about our financial condition and levels of non-performing assets.

Historically, we have tried to maintain deposit interest rates at a competitive level without exceeding market standards. We have utilized special
pricing on selected maturities of certificates of deposit and offered competitively attractive interest rates on promotional savings and money market products including a promotional money market program initiated by BOHR. The interest rates for the
majority of the funds raised in this promotion are committed through June 30, 2010. If BOHR is still less than well capitalized at that time, BOHR would be required to reduce the interest rate to comply with the rate cap restriction
discussed earlier. We could experience

##### Table of Contents

deposit withdrawals greater than the amount we might otherwise experience if the rate cap restrictions were not in effect. Overall, however, our deposit interest costs historically have been
below the average of peers. While we will continue efforts to maintain reasonable deposit interest rates, we cannot be assured of being successful in those efforts. With such competitive pressures, the possibility of rising interest rates, and
potential depositor confidence issues, we are at risk of reduced profitability in order to maintain funding for our asset base.

We may
continue to incur losses if we are unable to successfully manage interest rate risk.

Our profitability depends in substantial part
upon the spread between the interest rates earned on investments and loans and the interest rates paid on deposits and other interest bearing liabilities. These rates are normally in line with general market rates and rise and fall based on
managements view of our needs. Changes in interest rates will affect our operating performance and financial condition in diverse ways including the pricing of securities, loans and deposits, and the volume of loan originations in our mortgage
banking business. Our net interest income will be adversely affected if market interest rates change so that the interest we pay on deposits and borrowings increases faster than the interest we earn on loans and investments. This could in turn have
a material adverse affect on the value of our Common Stock.

Certain built-in losses could be limited if we experience an ownership
change, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code.

Certain of our assets may have built-in losses such as loans to the extent the basis
of such assets exceeds fair market value. Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code may limit the benefit of these built-in losses which exist at the time of an ownership change. A Section 382 ownership change occurs
if a stockholder or a group of stockholders who are deemed to own at least 5% of our Common Stock increase their ownership by more than 50 percentage points over their lowest ownership percentage within a rolling three-year period. If an
ownership change occurs, Section 382 would impose an annual limit on the amount of recognized built-in losses we can use to reduce our taxable income equal to the product of the total value of our outstanding equity immediately
prior to the ownership change and the federal long-term tax-exempt interest rate in effect for the month of the ownership change. A number of special rules apply to calculating this limit. The limitations contained in
Section 382 apply for a five year period beginning on the date of the ownership change and any recognized built-in losses that are limited by Section 382 may be carried forward and reduce our future taxable income for up to 20
years, after which they expire. If an ownership change were to occur, the annual limit per Section 382 could defer our ability to use some, or all, of the built-in-losses to offset taxable income.

A substantial decline in the value of our FHLB common stock may result in an other-than-temporary impairment charge.

We own common stock of the FHLB in order to qualify for membership in the FHLB system, which enables us to borrow funds under the FHLB
advance program. The carrying value and fair market value of our FHLB common stock was approximately $19.7 million as of December 31, 2009. On January 30, 2009, the FHLB announced that in light of the other-than-temporary impairment
analysis that it was still completing for the fourth quarter of 2008, it was deferring the declaration of its fourth quarter dividend. Consequently, for this and other reasons there is a risk that our investment in common stock of the FHLB could be
deemed other-than-temporarily impaired at some time in the future, which would adversely affect our earnings and the value, or market for, of our Common Stock.

Our future success is dependent on our ability to compete effectively in the highly competitive banking industry.

We face vigorous competition from other banks and other financial institutions, including savings and loan associations, savings banks, finance companies,
and credit unions for deposits, loans, and other financial services that serve our market area. A number of these banks and other financial institutions are significantly larger than we are and have substantially greater access to capital and other
resources, as well as larger lending limits and branch systems, and offer a wider array of banking services. Many of our non-bank competitors are not subject to the same extensive regulations that govern us. As a result, these non-bank competitors
have advantages over us in providing certain services. While we believe we compete effectively with these other financial institutions serving our primary markets, we may face a competitive disadvantage to larger institutions. If we have to raise
interest rates paid on deposits or lower interest rates charged on loans to compete effectively, our net interest margin and income could be negatively affected. Failure to compete effectively to attract new, or to retain existing, clients may
reduce or limit our margins and our market share and may adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition, growth, and the value of our Common Stock.

Our operations and customers might be affected by the occurrence of a natural disaster or other
catastrophic event in our market area.

Because a substantial portion of our loans are with customers and businesses located in
the central and coastal portions of Virginia, North Carolina, and Maryland, catastrophic events, including natural disasters such as hurricanes which historically have struck the east coast of the United States with some regularity, or terrorist
attacks could disrupt our operations. Any of these natural disasters or other catastrophic events could have a negative impact on our financial centers and customer base as well as collateral values and the strength of our loan portfolio. Any
natural disaster or catastrophic event affecting us could have a material adverse impact on our operations and the value of our Common Stock.

We face a variety of threats from technology based frauds and scams.

Financial institutions are a prime target of criminal activities through various channels of information technology. We attempt to mitigate risk from such
activities through policies, procedures, and preventative and detective measures. In addition, we maintain insurance coverage designed to provide a level of financial protection to our business. However, risks posed by business interruption, fraud
losses, business recovery expenses, and other potential losses or expenses that may be experienced from a significant event are not readily predictable and, therefore, could have an impact on our results of operations.

Virginia law and the provisions of our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, and Bylaws could deter or prevent takeover attempts by a potential
purchaser of our Common Stock that would be willing to pay you a premium for your shares of our Common Stock.

Our Articles of
Incorporation, as amended, and Bylaws contain provisions that may be deemed to have the effect of discouraging or delaying uninvited attempts by third parties to gain control of the Company. These provisions include the division of our board of
directors into classes and the ability of our board to set the price, term, and rights of, and to issue, one or more additional series of our preferred stock. Similarly, the Virginia Stock Corporation Act contains provisions designed to protect
Virginia corporations and employees from the adverse effects of hostile corporate takeovers. These provisions reduce the possibility that a third party could effect a change in control without the support of our incumbent directors. These provisions
may also strengthen the position of current management by restricting the ability of shareholders to change the composition of the board, to affect its policies generally, and to benefit from actions that are opposed by the current board.

Our directors and officers have significant voting power.

As of March 25, 2010, the Companys officers and directors beneficially owned approximately 17% of the issued and outstanding shares of the
Companys Common Stock. By voting against a proposal submitted to shareholders, the directors and officers have the ability to influence voting results for proposals requiring the approval of shareholders such as mergers, share exchanges, asset
sales, and amendments to our Articles of Incorporation, as amended.

Our management has identified a material weaknesses in our internal
control over financial reporting, which if not properly remediated could result in material misstatements in our future interim and annual financial statements and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of
operations and the price of our common stock.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control
over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles.

As further described in Item 9A. Controls and Procedures, our management has identified certain
significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting and our auditors have concluded that these control deficiencies constituted a material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting at December 31,
2009. A material weakness, as defined in the standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB), is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there
is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Although we are in the process of implementing and have already implemented certain initiatives aimed at addressing these significant deficiencies and
the Company believes it has appropriately addressed the material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting, these initiatives may not remediate the material weakness. Failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control
environment could result in us not being able to accurately report our financial results, prevent or detect fraud or provide timely and reliable financial information pursuant to the reporting obligations we will have as a public company, which
could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Further, it could cause our investors to lose confidence in the financial information we report, which could adversely affect the price of our
common stock.

We may be unable to recruit, motivate, and retain qualified employees.

Our success depends, in part, upon our ability to attract, motivate, and retain a sufficient number of qualified employees. Our financial condition and
recent history of consecutive quarterly losses might make it difficult to attract and retain qualified employees. Our inability to recruit, motivate, and retain such individuals may result in higher employee turnover, which could have a further
material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Additionally, competition for qualified employees could require us to pay higher wages and provide additional benefits to attract sufficient
employees, which could result in higher labor costs.

Risks Relating to our Capital Structure and Ability to Raise Capital

Current levels of market volatility are unprecedented.

The capital and credit markets have been experiencing volatility and disruption for nearly 24 months. The volatility and disruption has reached
unprecedented levels. In some cases, the markets have produced downward pressure on stock prices, including the price of our Common Stock, and credit availability for certain issuers without regard to those issuers underlying financial
strength. If current levels of market disruption and volatility continue or worsen, there can be no assurance that we will not experience a more adverse effect on our Common Stock, our ability to access capital, and on our business, financial
condition, and results of operations.

The Company has issued three series of preferred stock that have rights that are senior to those of
its common shareholders.

The Company has issued 23,266 shares of Series A Non-Convertible Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, no
par value per share (the Series A Preferred Stock), 37,550 shares of Series B Non-Convertible Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, no par value per share (the Series B Preferred Stock) and 80,347 shares of Series C Fixed
Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series C, no par value per share (the Series C Preferred Stock). Each of these series of preferred stock of the Company ranks senior to its shares of Common Stock. As a result, the Company must
make dividend payments on each series of the preferred stock before any dividends can be paid on its Common Stock and, in the event of its bankruptcy, dissolution, or liquidation, the holders of each series of the preferred stock must be satisfied
before any distributions can be made on its Common Stock. The Company has the right to defer distributions on its preferred stock for any period of time, during which time no dividends may be paid on its Common Stock. The dividends declared on
preferred stock will reduce the net income available to common shareholders and the Companys earnings per common share.

If we are
unable to redeem the Series C Preferred Stock prior to January 1, 2014, the cost of this capital to us will increase substantially.

If we are unable to redeem the Series C Preferred Stock prior to January 1, 2014, the cost of this capital to us will increase substantially on that
date, from 5.0% (approximately $4.0 million annually) to 9.0% per annum (approximately $7.2 million annually), further reducing the net income available to holders of our Common Stock and our earnings per common share. We can give you no
assurance that we will be able to redeem our Series C Preferred Stock.

Because of our participation in TARP, we are subject to several
restrictions including restrictions on compensation paid to our executives.

Pursuant to the terms of the TARP, we adopted certain
standards for executive compensation and corporate governance for the period during which the Treasury holds an investment in us. These standards generally apply to our five most highly compensated senior executive officers, including our Chief
Executive Officer, and certain of these restrictions also apply to our twenty most highly compensated senior executives. The standards include, among other things, ensuring that incentive compensation for senior executives does not encourage
unnecessary and excessive risks that threaten the value of the financial institution; a required claw back of any bonus or incentive compensation paid to a senior executive officer or one of the next twenty most highly compensated employees based on
statements of earnings, gains, or other criteria that are later proven to be materially inaccurate; a prohibition on making golden parachute payments to senior executives; an agreement not to deduct for tax purposes annual compensation in excess of
$500 thousand for each senior executive; and a limitation on bonuses. In particular, the change to the deductibility limit on executive compensation may increase the overall cost of our compensation programs in future periods and may make it more
difficult to attract suitable candidates to serve as executive officers.

Risks Relating to Market, Legislative, and Regulatory Events

Our business, financial condition, and results of operations are highly regulated and could be adversely affected by new or changed regulations and
by the manner in which such regulations are applied by regulatory authorities.

Current economic conditions, particularly in the
financial markets, have resulted in government regulatory agencies placing increased focus on and scrutiny of the financial services industry. The U.S. Government has intervened on an unprecedented scale, responding to what has been commonly
referred to as the financial crisis. In addition to participating in Treasurys CPP and CAP, the U.S. Government has taken steps that include enhancing the liquidity support available to financial institutions, establishing a commercial paper
funding facility, temporarily guaranteeing money market funds and certain types of debt issuances, and increasing insured deposits. These programs subject us and other financial institutions who have participated in these programs to additional
restrictions, oversight and/or costs that may have an impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations or the price of our Common Stock.

Compliance with such regulation and scrutiny may significantly increase our costs, impede the efficiency of our internal business processes, require us
to increase our regulatory capital and limit our ability to pursue business opportunities in an efficient manner. We also will be required to pay significantly higher FDIC premiums because market developments have significantly depleted the
insurance fund of the FDIC and reduced the ratio of reserves to insured deposits. The increased costs associated with anticipated regulatory and political scrutiny could adversely impact our results of operations.

New proposals for legislation continue to be introduced in the U.S. Congress that could further substantially increase regulation of the financial
services industry. Federal and state regulatory agencies also frequently adopt changes to their regulations and/or change the manner in which existing regulations are applied. We cannot predict whether any pending or future legislation will be
adopted or the substance and impact of any such new legislation on us. Additional regulation could affect us in a substantial way and could have an adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations.

Current and future increases in FDIC insurance premiums, including the FDIC special assessment imposed on all FDIC-insured institutions, will
decrease our earnings. In addition, FDIC insurance assessments will likely increase from not maintaining a well capitalized status, which would further decrease earnings.

EESA temporarily increased the limit on FDIC coverage to $250,000 for all accounts through December 31, 2013. In addition, in May of 2009, the FDIC
announced that it had voted to levy a special assessment on insured institutions in order to facilitate the rebuilding of the DIF. The assessment is equal to five basis points of the Companys total assets minus Tier 1 capital as of
June 30, 2009. This represented a charge of approximately $1.4 million, which was recorded as a pre-tax charge during the second quarter of 2009. The FDIC has indicated that future special assessments are possible.

In addition, the regulatory capital ratios of BOHR decreased during the fourth quarter of 2009 below well capitalized status based on
regulatory standards. At December 31, 2009, it satisfied the minimum regulatory capital requirements and was adequately capitalized within the meaning of federal regulatory requirements. FDIC insurance assessments for BOHR will
likely increase due to this change in regulatory capital status. Any increases in FDIC insurance assessments would decrease our earnings.

Banking regulators have broad enforcement power, but regulations are meant to protect depositors, and not investors.

We are subject to supervision by several governmental regulatory agencies. The regulators interpretation and application of relevant regulations,
are beyond our control, may change rapidly and unpredictably, and can be expected to influence our earnings and growth. In addition, these regulations may limit our growth and the return to our investors by restricting activities such as the payment
of dividends, mergers with, or acquisitions by, other institutions, investments, loans and interest rates, interest rates paid on deposits, the use of brokered deposits, and the creation of financial centers. Although these regulations impose costs
on us, they are intended to protect depositors. The regulations to which we are subject may not always be in the best interests of investors.

The fiscal, monetary and regulatory policies of the Federal Government and its agencies could have a
material adverse effect on our results of operations.

The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System regulates the supply of
money and credit in the United States. Its policies determine, in large part, the cost of funds for lending and investing and the return earned on those loans and investments, both of which affect the net interest margin. It also can materially
decrease the value of financial assets we hold, such as debt securities. Its policies also can adversely affect borrowers, potentially increasing the risk that they may fail to repay their loans. Additionally, on June 17, 2009, Treasury
released a white paper proposing sweeping financial reforms, including the creation of a Consumer Financial Protection Agency with extensive powers. If enacted, the proposals would significantly alter not only how financial firms are regulated but
also how they conduct their business. Changes in Federal Reserve policies and our regulatory environment generally are beyond our control, and we are unable to predict what changes may occur or the manner in which any future changes may affect our
business, financial condition and results of operation.

In addition, as a public company we are subject to securities laws and standards
imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Because we are a relatively small company, the costs of compliance are disproportionate compared with much larger organizations. Continued growth of legal and regulatory compliance mandates could adversely affect
our expenses, future results of operations and the value of our Common Stock. In addition, the government and regulatory authorities have the power to impose rules or other requirements, including requirements that we are unable to anticipate, that
could have an adverse impact on our results of operations and the value of our Common Stock.

There can be no assurance that recently
enacted legislation will stabilize the U.S. financial system.

On October 3, 2008, President Bush signed EESA into law. The
legislation was the result of a proposal by then Secretary of the Treasury Henry Paulson to the U.S. Congress in response to the financial crises affecting the banking system and financial markets and threats to investment banks and other financial
institutions. Pursuant to the EESA, the Treasury has the authority to, among other things, purchase up to $700 billion of mortgages, mortgage-backed securities and certain other financial instruments from financial institutions for the purpose of
stabilizing and providing liquidity to the U.S. financial markets. On October 14, 2008, the Treasury announced the CPP, a program under the EESA pursuant to which it would make senior preferred stock investments in participating financial
institutions. On October 14, 2008, the FDIC announced the development of a guarantee program under the systemic risk exception to the FDIA pursuant to which the FDIC would offer a guarantee of certain financial institution indebtedness in
exchange for an insurance premium to be paid to the FDIC by issuing financial institutions (the FDIC Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program). Also, on February 17, 2009, President Obama signed ARRA into law, which contains a wide
array of provisions aimed at stimulating the U.S. economy.

There can be no assurance, however, as to the actual impact that the EESA, ARRA
and their implementing regulations, the FDIC programs, or any other governmental program will have on the financial markets. The failure of the EESA, ARRA, the FDIC, or the U.S. government to stabilize the financial markets and a continuation or
worsening of current financial market conditions could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and access to credit or the trading price of our Common Stock.

The impact on us of recently enacted legislation, in particular EESA and ARRA and their implementing regulations, and actions by the FDIC, cannot
be predicted at this time.

The programs established or to be established under the EESA, ARRA, and TARP may have adverse effects upon
us. We may face increased regulation of our industry. Compliance with such regulation may increase our costs and limit our ability to pursue business opportunities. Also, participation in specific programs may subject us to additional restrictions.
For example, participation in the TARP CPP will limit (without the consent of the Treasury) our ability to increase our dividend or to repurchase our stock for so long as any securities issued under such program remain outstanding. It will also
subject us to additional executive compensation restrictions. Similarly, programs established by the FDIC under the systemic risk exception of the FDIA, whether we participate or not, may have an adverse effect on us. We do not participate in the
FDIC Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program. However, we may be required to pay significantly higher FDIC premiums even though we do not participate in the FDIC Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program because market developments have significantly
depleted the insurance fund of the FDIC and reduced the ratio of reserves to insured deposits. The effects of participating or not participating in any such programs and the extent of our participation in such programs cannot reliably be determined
at this time.

The soundness of other financial institutions could adversely affect us.

Our ability to engage in routine funding transactions could be adversely affected by the actions and commercial soundness of other financial institutions.
Financial services institutions are interrelated as a result of trading, clearing, counterparty or other relationships. As a result, defaults by, or even rumors or questions about, one or more financial services institutions, or the financial
services industry generally, have led to market-wide liquidity problems and could lead to losses or defaults by us or by other institutions. Many of these transactions expose us to credit risk in the event of default of our counterparty or client.
In addition, our credit risk may be exacerbated when the collateral held by us cannot be realized upon or is liquidated at prices not sufficient to recover the full amount of the financial instrument exposure due us. There is no assurance that any
such losses would not materially and adversely affect our results of operations and the value of, or market for, our Common Stock.

ITEM 1B  UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

Number of Shareholders of Record

As of March 25, 2010, we had 22,153,594 shares of Common Stock outstanding, which were held by 4,910 shareholders of record. In addition, we had
approximately 4,600 beneficial owners who own their shares through brokers.

Dividend Policy

Dividends paid are limited by the requirement to meet capital guidelines issued by regulatory authorities, and future declarations are subject to
financial performance and regulatory requirements. During 2008 and the first half of 2009, the Company paid cash dividends of $0.11 per share on a quarterly basis. Due to net losses incurred in 2009, on July 30, 2009, the Board of Directors
voted to suspend the quarterly dividend on the Company Common Stock in order to preserve capital and liquidity. Our ability to distribute cash dividends in the future may be limited by negative regulatory restrictions and the need to maintain
sufficient consolidated capital. On October 30, 2009, the Company announced that it had suspended its Series A and B Preferred dividend as an additional method to preserve capital and liquidity.

In addition, the Company announced on November 17, 2009 that it had notified the Treasury of its intent to defer the payment of its regular
quarterly cash dividends on its Series C Preferred Stock issued to the Treasury in connection with the Companys participation in the Treasurys TARP CPP. Under the terms of the Series C Preferred Stock, the Company is required to pay on a
quarterly basis a dividend rate of 5% per year for the first five years, after which the dividend rate automatically increases to 9% per year. Dividend payments may be deferred, but the dividend is a cumulative dividend and failure to pay
dividends for six dividend periods would trigger board appointment rights for the holder of the Series C Preferred Stock.

Because the Company
previously suspended quarterly dividend payments to holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock, it is required under applicable law to defer dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock. However, because the Series C Preferred
Stock dividend is cumulative, the dividend has been accrued.

The primary source of funds for dividends paid to our shareholders is the
dividends received from our subsidiaries. Our Banks are subject to laws and regulations that limit the amount of dividends that they can pay. Under Virginia law, a bank may not declare a dividend in excess of its undivided profits. In addition, our
bank subsidiaries may not declare a dividend if the total amount of all dividends, including the proposed dividend, declared by the respective bank in any calendar year exceeds the total of that banks year to date retained net income, combined
with its retained net income of the two preceding years, unless the dividend is approved by the Federal Reserve. Our Banks may not declare or pay any dividend if, after making the dividend, the bank would be undercapitalized, as defined
in the banking regulations.

All classes of preferred stock are in a superior ownership position compared to Common Stock. Dividends must be
paid to the preferred stockholder before they can be paid to the common stockholder. The Company has issued 23,266 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, 37,550 shares of Series B Preferred Stock and 80,347 shares of Series C Preferred Stock. The
Company must make dividend payments on each series of the preferred stock before any dividends can be paid on its Common Stock and, in the event of its bankruptcy, dissolution, or liquidation, the holders of each series of the preferred stock must
be satisfied before any distributions can be made on its Common Stock. The Company has the right to defer distributions on its preferred stock for any period of time, during which time no dividends may be paid on its Common Stock. The dividends
declared on the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, and Series C Preferred Stock will reduce the net income available to common shareholders and the Companys earnings per common share. Additionally, the ownership interest of
the existing holders of Common Stock will be diluted to the extent the warrant the Company issued to the Treasury in conjunction with the sale to the Treasury of the Series C Preferred Stock is exercised. Although the Treasury has agreed not to vote
any of the shares of Common Stock it receives upon exercise of the warrant, a transferee of any portion of the warrant or of any shares of Common Stock acquired upon exercise of the warrant is not bound by this restriction.

##### Table of Contents

The securities purchase agreement between the Company and Treasury provides that prior to the earlier of
(i) December 31, 2011 or (ii) the date on which all of the shares of the Series C Preferred Stock have been redeemed by the Company or transferred by the Treasury to third parties, the Company may not, without the consent of the
Treasury, (a) increase the cash dividend on its Common Stock or (b) subject to limited exceptions, redeem, repurchase, or otherwise acquire shares of its Common Stock or preferred stock other than the Series C Preferred Stock or Trust
Preferred Securities. In addition, the Company is unable to pay any dividends on its Common Stock unless it is current in its dividend payments on the Series C Preferred Stock. The Company is prevented from paying dividends on its preferred stock
and Common Stock until its financial condition improves.

Additionally, the Federal Reserve and the Bureau of Financial Institutions have the
general authority to limit the dividends paid by insured banks if the payment is deemed an unsafe and unsound practice. Both the Federal Reserve and the Bureau of Financial Institutions have indicated that paying dividends that deplete a banks
capital base to an inadequate level would be an unsound and unsafe banking practice.

We are also subject to certain federal regulatory
requirements to maintain capital at or above regulatory minimums. These regulatory requirements regarding capital affect our dividend policies. Banking regulators have indicated that banking organizations should generally pay dividends only if the
organizations net income available to common shareholders over the past year has been sufficient to fully fund the dividends and the prospective rate of earnings retention appears consistent with the organizations capital needs, asset
quality, and overall financial condition.

Performance Graph

The graph below presents five-year cumulative total return comparisons through December 31, 2009, in stock price appreciation and dividends for our
Common Stock, the Standard & Poors 500 Total Return Index (S & P 500), Keefe, Bruyette, & Woods 50 Total Return Index (KBW 50), and the SNL Securities index including banks between $1 billion
and $5 billion in total assets (SNL $1B-$5B Bank Index). Returns assume an initial investment of $100 at the market close on December 31, 2004 and reinvestment of dividends. SNL $1B-$5B Bank Index was added for year-end 2009 as it
is a more relevant index on which to base our Company. We plan to use the SNL $1B-$5B Bank Index in future filings because we believe it contains more issuers from our direct peer group than the KBW 50 index. Values as of each year-end of the
$100 initial investment are shown in the following table and graph.

ITEM 9  CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

None.

ITEM 9A  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Companys disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable
assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Companys reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in
the SECs rules and forms, including, without limitation, that such information is accumulated and communicated to Company management, including the Companys principal executive and financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company, under the supervision
and with the participation of the Companys management, including the Companys Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2009. Among other factors in its evaluation, the Company considered the underlying reasons for the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described
below. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of December 31, 2009, the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that
material information is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported by management of the Company on a timely basis in order to comply with the Companys disclosure obligations under the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder. This conclusion regarding the Companys disclosure controls and procedures is based solely on managements conclusion that the Companys internal control over financial reporting is ineffective.

Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that the Companys disclosure
controls and procedures will detect or uncover every situation involving the failure of persons within the Company to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in the Companys periodic reports.

Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and
maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). The Companys internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance to the
Companys management and board of directors regarding the reliability of financial reporting and preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems
determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

Management
assessed the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission in Internal Control  Integrated Framework.Based on this assessment, management believes that, as of December 31, 2009, the Companys internal control over financial reporting was ineffective based on those criteria.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a
reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Companys annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

##### Table of Contents

Management has evaluated the severity of each deficiency, individually and in aggregate and the
effectiveness of mitigating controls and has determined material weaknesses exist with the controls over financial reporting. The areas in which these deficiencies existed are summarized as follows:



| |  |  | Inadequate controls over the accounting for income taxes. The Company lacked sufficient personnel with adequate technical skills related to accounting
for income taxes. This deficiency resulted in misstatements in the Companys preliminary consolidated financial statements. These errors were corrected by management in the Companys consolidated financial statements as of and for the year
ended December 31, 2009, included in this Annual Report.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Ineffective controls over the accounting for certain loan transactions. Specifically, the Company lacked adequate controls over accounting for loans or
partial loans sold to other institutions and accounting for payments and accrual of interest on certain nonaccrual loans. . With regard to accounting for loans or partial loans sold to other institutions, management determined personnel lacked
adequate knowledge in accounting for these matters. With regard to accounting for payments and accrual of interest on certain nonaccrual loans, management determined that it lacked sufficient procedures to determine whether these loan payments were
properly processed. Errors that resulted from accounting for certain loan transactions were corrected by management in the Companys consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2009, included in this Annual
Report, within an amount that was deemed to be immaterial.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Ineffective controls and procedures related to certain information technology applications and general computer controls. The Company did not maintain
adequate controls to prevent unauthorized access to certain programs and data, and provide for periodic review and monitoring of access including analysis of segregation of duties conflicts.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Weaknesses within the area of Human Resources were identified including inadequate controls over access to payroll data and a lack of procedures to
review payroll changes and reconcile payroll data to supporting documentation.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Remediation Plan

Management is committed to continuing efforts to improve the design and operation of the Companys internal controls, including taking all necessary
steps to remediate the material weaknesses identified above. The Companys ongoing efforts to strengthen controls in response to the deficiencies noted above include:



| |  |  | To remediate the weaknesses with respect to accounting for income taxes, the Company began in the fourth quarter of 2009, utilizing outsourced service
providers with specific expertise in this area to assist current personnel. The Company intends to continue utilizing such service providers until it is able to hire personnel with the necessary income tax qualifications and experience.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | To remediate the weaknesses with respect to accounting for certain loan transactions, the Company will review on a regular basis, payments recorded on
nonaccrual loans. Additionally, the Company intends to train or hire accounting personnel to increase the staffs expertise in loan accounting. The deficiencies with respect to accounting for loans or partial loans sold to other institutions
have been corrected.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In response to the weaknesses within information technology, the Company has engaged an outside information technology consultant to assist personnel
in designing and maintaining effective controls and procedures over IT applications. Management will continue to monitor the information technology area and assess the progress towards remediation.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | In connection with correcting the weaknesses within Human Resources, the Company has, during first quarter of 2010:
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 1. | Modified user access to payroll data based on the employees responsibilities,
| | -- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 2. | implemented procedures for the review of payroll changes by appropriate personnel, and
| | -- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 3. | established controls for the reconciliation of payroll data to the Companys financial records on a routine basis.
| | -- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Through these steps, the Company believes it is appropriately addressing the material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting disclosed
above.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.The only changes in our internal control over financial reporting
that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2009 that have materially affected, or are reasonable likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, are summarized above in the discussion of the material
weakness in internal control over financial reporting, as well as the related remediation plan. The Company expects the changes related to the remediation plan to materially affect and improve its internal control over financial reporting.
