|ITEM 1. | BUSINESS
|------- | --------

General

BOE Financial Services of Virginia, Inc., or BOE, or the Corporation, owns all of the stock of its sole direct subsidiary, Bank of
Essex. BOE was incorporated under Virginia law in 2000 to become the holding company for the Bank of Essex. The headquarters of BOE is located in Tappahannock, Virginia.

Bank of Essex was established in 1926 and is headquartered in Tappahannock, Virginia. Bank of Essex operates eight full-service offices in Virginia, engages in a general commercial banking business and provides a wide
range of financial services primarily to individuals and small businesses, including individual and commercial demand and time deposit accounts, commercial and consumer loans, travelers checks, safe deposit box facilities, investment services and
fixed rate residential mortgages. Two offices are located in Tappahannock, one each in Manquin, Mechanicsville, West Point, Glen Allen, Burgess and Callao, Virginia, respectively.

Essex Services, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Bank of Essex and was formed to sell title insurance to Bank of Essexs mortgage loan
customers. Essex Services, Inc. also offers insurance products through an ownership interest in Bankers Insurance, LLC and investment products through an affiliation with VBA Investments, LLC.

BOE recently constructed a new headquarters facility which is located at 1325 Tappahannock Boulevard, approximately one mile from its former Main Office
at 323 Prince Street. Upon the opening of this office BOE simultaneously closed a branch bank located across the highway from the new headquarters and redesignated the current main office as a branch bank. The former main office also houses Bank of
Essexs data processing department and loan processing center. BOE began operating from this new location and closed the branch bank on June 12, 2006.

BOEs expansion efforts have contributed to its growth and improved profitability. Total assets have increased from $128.8 million at the end of 1997 to $302.4 million at December 31, 2007. Net income
has grown from $1.203 million in 1997 to $2.608 million in 2007. Diluted earnings per share were $1.27 in 1997 versus $2.15 in 2007. BOEs return on assets was 1.01% in 1997 and 0.90% in 2007. Return on equity was 12.09% in 1997 and 9.03% in
2007.

Loan growth since BOE expanded into metropolitan Richmond has come principally from rate sensitive commercial loans which have
served to mitigate BOEs interest rate risk. At the same time, this growth in commercial loans has increased Bank of Essexs credit risk.

Recent Developments

On December 14, 2007, BOE announced that it had entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated
as of December 13, 2007 (the Merger Agreement), with Community Bankers Acquisition Corp. (CBAC). The Merger Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions of CBACs acquisition of BOE through the merger of BOE with
and into CBAC (the Merger).

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, CBAC will issue to the stockholders of BOE, for each
share of BOEs common stock that they own, 5.7278 shares of CBACs common stock, subject to adjustment pursuant to the Merger Agreement. After the Merger, Bank of Essex will become a wholly owned subsidiary of CBAC.

Previously, on September 5, 2007, CBAC entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with TransCommunity Financial Corporation (TFC).
Under the terms of the TFC merger agreement, TFC has given its consent to CBAC entering into the Merger Agreement.

Consummation of the
Merger is subject to the consummation of the merger of CBAC with TFC and a number of customary conditions, including the approval of the Merger by the stockholders of each of BOE and CBAC and the receipt of all required regulatory approvals. On
December 18, 2007, BOE filed a Current Report on Form 8-K with respect to the announcement of the Merger, and more information on the Merger is provided in that report.

Employees

At December 31, 2007, BOE had 97 full-time equivalent employees. None of its
employees is represented by any collective bargaining unit. BOE considers relations with its employees to be excellent.

SEC Filings

BOE maintains an internet website at www.bankofessex.com. This website contains information relating to BOE and its business. Stockholders of BOE and the public may access BOEs periodic and current reports, including annual reports on
Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K, and any amendments to those reports, filed with or furnished to the SEC pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, through
the Investors section of BOEs website. The reports are made available on this website as soon as practicable following the filing of the reports with the SEC. This information is free of charge and may be reviewed, downloaded and
printed from the website at any time.

Market Area

BOEs eight offices serve a diverse market from the edge of the City of Richmond in Hanover and Henrico Counties to Tappahannock, Virginia on the Rappahannock River in Essex County and into the Northern Neck.
From suburban Hanover and Henrico Counties, the market area is primarily rural along Route 360 through King William and King and Queen Counties into Essex County and two recently opened offices in Northumberland County in the Northern Neck of
Virginia. BOEs management believes Route 360 is a developing growth corridor from Richmond to the east. Tappahannock is approximately 40 miles from downtown Richmond and about one hour from Fredericksburg. Through its Tappahannock branches,
BOE also serves the central portions of the Middle Peninsula and the Northern Neck of Virginia. Through its West Point office, BOE serves portions of the Middle Peninsula of Virginia.

BOE made application in 2007 with the State Corporation Commissions Bureau of Financial Institutions and received approval to establish two
branches in Northumberland County, Virginia. One location will be constructed in Callao and one in Burgess. Route 360 runs through Northumberland County, which is located in the Northern Neck of Virginia and has experienced significant growth in
total deposits the last ten years as the area has evolved from an area dependent upon agricultural and industrial seafood production to a growing waterfront retirement community with associated service businesses. These two offices are currently
open in temporary mobile banking units and construction of permanent facilities is expected to begin in mid-year 2008.

Competition

Within the Richmond, Middle Peninsula and Northern Neck areas, BOE operates in a highly competitive environment, competing for deposits and loans with
commercial corporations, savings and loans and other financial institutions, including non-bank competitors, many of which possess substantially greater financial resources than those available to BOE. Many of these institutions have significantly
higher lending limits than BOE. In addition, there can be no assurance that other financial institutions, with substantially greater resources than BOE, will not establish operations in BOEs service area. The financial services industry
remains highly competitive and is constantly evolving.

In Essex County, BOE commands 38.7% of the deposits in the market, according to the
most recently available survey of deposits by the FDIC (June 30, 2007). Serving King William County, the branches at Central Garage and West Point have experienced steady growth, reaching 21.5% of the deposits in the King William County market as of
the June 30, 2007 FDIC survey of deposits, while competing with previously established branches. BOEs office located on Route 360 in eastern Hanover County had $37.7 million in total deposits on June 30, 2007. In Henrico County,
BOEs office located near Virginia Center Commons Mall has experienced strong growth while competing against other community banks and established offices of statewide banks in the vicinity. This office had $47.2 million in total deposits
on June 30, 2007.

Factors such as rates offered on loan and deposit products, types of products offered, the number and location of
branch offices, as well as the reputation of institutions in the market, affect competition for loans and deposits. BOE emphasizes customer service, establishing long-term relationships with its customers, thereby creating customer loyalty, and
providing adequate product lines for individuals and small-to-medium size business customers.

BOE would not be materially or adversely
impacted by the loss of a single customer. BOE is not dependent upon a single or a few customers.

Supervision and Regulation

Bank holding companies and banks operate in a highly regulated environment and are regularly examined by federal and state regulators, including the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the Federal
Reserve), the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the FDIC) and the Bureau of Financial Institutions of the Virginia State Corporation Commission (the SCC). The following description briefly discusses certain
provisions of federal and state laws and certain regulations and the potential impact of such provisions on BOE Financial Services of Virginia, Inc. and the Bank. These federal and state laws and regulations have been enacted generally for the
protection of depositors in national and state banks and not for the protection of stockholders of bank holding companies or banks.

Bank Holding
Companies. BOE Financial Services of Virginia, Inc. is registered as a bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the BHCA), and, as a result, is subject to regulation by the Federal Reserve. The
Federal Reserve has jurisdiction under the BHCA to approve any bank or nonbank acquisition, merger or consolidation proposed by a bank holding company. The BHCA generally limits the activities of a bank holding company and its subsidiaries to that
of banking, managing or controlling banks, or any other activity, which is so closely related to banking or to managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto. Under the BHCA, the Corporation is subject to periodic examination by
the Federal Reserve and is required to file periodic reports regarding its operations and any additional information the Federal Reserve may require.

Federal law permits bank holding companies from any state to acquire banks and bank holding companies located in any other state. The law allows interstate bank mergers, subject to opt-in or opt-out action
by individual states. Virginia adopted early opt-in legislation that allows interstate bank mergers. These laws also permit interstate branch acquisitions and de novo branching in Virginia by out-of-state banks if reciprocal treatment is
accorded Virginia banks in the state of the acquirer.

There are a number of 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 depositor of such depository institutions and to the FDIC insurance fund in the event the depository
institution becomes in danger of default or in default. For example, under a policy of the Federal Reserve with respect to bank holding company operations, a bank holding company is required to serve as a source of financial strength to its
subsidiary depository institutions and to commit resources to support such institutions in circumstances where it might not do so otherwise.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Act (FDIA) also provides that amounts received from the liquidation or other resolution of any insured depository institution by any receiver must be distributed (after payment of secured claims) to
pay the deposit liabilities of the institution prior to payment of any other general or unsecured senior liability, subordinated liability, general creditor or stockholders in the event a receiver is appointed to distribute the assets of the Bank.

The Corporation was required to register in Virginia with the SCC under the financial institution holding company laws of Virginia.
Accordingly, the Corporation is subject to regulation and supervision by the SCC.

The Corporation is also subject to the periodic
reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including but not limited to, filing annual, quarterly, and other current reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (the Act) was enacted in November 1999. The Act draws new lines between
the types of activities that are permitted for banking organizations that are financial in nature and those that are not permitted because they are commercial in nature. The Act imposes Community Reinvestment Act requirements on financial service
organizations that seek to qualify for the expanded powers to engage in broader financial activities and affiliations with financial companies that the Act permits.

The Act created a new form of financial organization called a financial holding company that may own and control banks, insurance companies and securities firms. A financial holding company is authorized to engage in
any activity that is financial in nature or incidental to an activity that is financial in nature or is a complementary activity. These activities include insurance, securities transactions and

traditional banking related activities. The Act establishes a consultative and cooperative procedure between the Federal Reserve and the Secretary of the
Treasury for the designation of new activities that are financial in nature within the scope of the activities permitted by the Act for a financial holding company. A financial holding company must satisfy special criteria to qualify for the
expanded financial powers authorized by the Act. Among those criteria are requirements that all of the depository institutions owned by the financial holding company be rated as well-capitalized and well-managed and that all of its insured
depository institutions have received a satisfactory ratio for Community Reinvestment Act compliance during their last examination. A bank holding company that does not qualify as a financial holding company under the Act is generally limited in the
types of activities in which it may engage to those that the Federal Reserve has recognized as permissible for bank holding companies prior to the date of enactment of the Act. The Act also authorizes a state bank to have a financial subsidiary that
engages as a principal in the same activities that are permitted for a financial subsidiary of a national bank if the state bank meets eligibility criteria and special conditions for maintaining the financial subsidiary.

The Act repealed the prohibition in the Glass-Steagall Act on bank affiliations with companies that are engaged primarily in securities underwriting
activities. The Act authorizes a financial holding company to engage in a wide range of securities activities, including underwriting, broker/dealer activities and investment company and investment advisory activities.

The Act provides additional opportunities for financial holding companies to engage in activities that are financial in nature or incidental to an
activity that is financial in nature or complementary thereto provided that any such financial holding company is willing to comply with the conditions, restrictions and limitations placed on financial holding companies contained in the Act and the
regulations to be adopted under the Act. Financial in nature activities include: securities underwriting, dealing and market making, sponsoring mutual funds and investment companies, insurance underwriting and agency, merchant banking, and
activities that the Federal Reserve Board, in consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury, determines from time to time to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be proper incidents thereto. The Corporation has
not elected to become a financial holding company under the Act.

Under the Act, federal banking regulators are required to adopt rules
that will limit the ability of banks and other financial institutions to disclose non-public information about consumers to nonaffiliated third parties. These limitations will require disclosure of privacy policies to consumers and, in some
circumstances, will allow consumers to prevent disclosure of certain personal information to a nonaffiliated third party. Pursuant to these rules, effective July 1, 2001, financial institutions must provide: initial notices to customers about
their privacy policies, describing the conditions under which they may disclose nonpublic personal information to nonaffiliated third parties and affiliates; annual notices of their privacy policies to current customers; and a reasonable method for
customers to opt out of disclosures to nonaffiliated third parties. These privacy provisions will affect how consumer information is transmitted through diversified financial companies and conveyed to outside vendors.

USA Patriot Act of 2001. In October 2001, the USA Patriot Act was enacted to facilitate information sharing among entities within the government and financial
institutions to combat terrorist activities and to expose money laundering. The USA Patriot Act is considered a significant piece of banking law with regard to disclosure of information related to certain customer transactions. Financial
institutions are permitted to share information with one another, after notifying the United States Department of the Treasury, in order to better identify and report to the federal government activities that may involve terrorist activities or
money laundering. Under the USA Patriot Act, financial institutions are obligated to establish anti-money laundering programs, including the development of a customer identification program and to review all customers against any list of the
government that contains the manes of known or suspected terrorists. The USA Patriot Act does not have a material or adverse impact on the Banks products or service but compliance with this act creates a cost of compliance and a reporting
obligation.

Capital Requirements.The Federal Reserve has issued risk-based and leverage capital guidelines applicable to banking organizations
that it supervises. Under the risk-based capital requirements, the Corporation and the Bank are each generally required to maintain a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets (including certain 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 and qualifying perpetual preferred stock, less certain intangibles. The
remainder may

##### Table of Contents

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. 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 sum, the capital measures used by the federal
banking regulators are:



| |  |  | Total Capital ratio, which is the total of Tier 1 Capital and Tier 2 Capital;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Tier 1 Capital ratio; and
| | - |  | -------------------------



| |  |  | Leverage ratio.
| | - |  | ---------------



| |  |  | Under these regulations, a bank will be:
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------



| |  |  | Well Capitalized if it has a Total Capital ratio of 10% or greater, a Tier 1 Capital ratio of 6% 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 Capital ratio of 8% or greater, a Tier 1 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 Capital ratio of less than 8% or greater, a Tier 1 Capital ratio of less than 4% - or 3% in certain
circumstances;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Significantly Undercapitalized if it has a Total Capital ratio of less than 6%, a Tier 1 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 average quarterly tangible assets.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The risk-based capital standards of the Federal Reserve 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.

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 accepted by the FDIC. These powers include, but are not limited to, requiring the institution to be recapitlized, 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. The Bank presently maintains sufficient capital to remain in compliance with these capital requirements.

The Corporation is a legal entity separate and distinct from the bank. The majority of the Corporations revenues are from dividends paid to the Corporation by the Bank. The Bank is subject to laws and regulations that limit the amount
of dividends it can pay. In addition, both the Corporation and the Bank are subject to various regulatory restrictions relating to the payment of dividends, including



5

##### Table of Contents

requirements to maintain capital at or above regulatory minimums. 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. The Corporation does not expect that any of these laws, regulations or policies will materially affect the ability of the Bank to pay dividends. During the year ended December 31, 2007, the
Bank paid $950,000 in dividends to the Corporation.

The FDIC has the general authority to limit the dividends paid by insured banks if the
payment is deemed an unsafe and unsound practice. The FDIC has indicated that paying dividends that deplete a banks capital base to an inadequate level would be an unsound and unsafe banking practice.

Community Reinvestment Act.Under the Community Reinvestment Act (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. CRA requires the adoption of a 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 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 Corporation believes it is currently in compliance with CRA.

Fair Lending; Consumer Laws.In addition to CRA, other federal and state laws regulate various lending and consumer aspects of the banking 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 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, short of a full trial.

Recently, 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 regulation of financial institutions changes regularly and is the subject of constant
legislative debate, the Corporation cannot forecast how federal regulation of financial institutions may change in the future and impact its operations. Although Congress in recent years has sought to reduce the regulatory burden on financial
institutions with respect to the approval of specific transactions, the Corporation fully expects 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.

Credit Policies

The Corporation follows written policies and procedures to enhance management of credit risk. The loan portfolio is managed under a specifically defined credit process. This process includes formulation of portfolio
management strategy, guidelines for underwriting standards and risk assessment, procedures for ongoing identification and management of credit deterioration, and regular portfolio reviews

to estimate loss exposure and ascertain compliance with the Corporations policies. Lending authority is granted to individual lending officers with the
current highest limit being $500,000 if secured by conforming real estate. A Loan Committee compromised of five loan officers can approve credits of up to $500,000. Approval of such credits requires a majority vote of the Loan Committee. The
Executive Committee of the Board of Directors, meeting monthly, can approve loans up to the Banks legal lending limit. The Board of Director meets monthly as well and it too may approve loans up to the Banks legal lending limit.

The Corporations management generally requires that secured loans have a loan-to-value ratio of 85% or less. Management believes
that when a borrower has significant equity in the assets securing the loan, the borrower is less likely to default on the outstanding loan balance.

A major element of credit risk management is diversification. The Corporations objective is to maintain a diverse loan portfolio to minimize the impact of any single event or set of circumstances. Concentration
parameters are based on factors of individual risk, policy constraints, economic conditions, collateral and product type.

Lending
activities include a variety of consumer, real estate and commercial loans with a strong emphasis on serving the needs of customers within the Corporations market territory. Consumer loans are made primarily on a secured basis in the form of
installment obligations or personal lines of credit. The focus of real estate lending is single family residential mortgages, but also includes home improvement loans, construction lending and home equity lines of credit. Commercial lending is
provided to businesses seeking credit for working capital, the purchase of equipment and facilities and commercial development.



|ITEM 1A. | RISK FACTORS
|-------- | ------------

Our operations are subject to many
risks that could adversely impact future financial condition and performance and thus, the market value of our common stock. The risk factors applicable to us are the following:

Fluctuations in interest rates may affect profitability.

Our profitability and cash flows depend
substantially upon net interest margin. Net interest margin is the difference between interest earned on loans and investments, and rates paid on deposits and other borrowings. The rates described above are highly sensitive to many factors not in
our control, such as general economic conditions and policies of regulatory and governmental agencies. Changes in interest rates will affect net interest margin and thus profitability and cash flows. We attempt to manage our interest rate risk but
cannot eliminate this risk.

Our profitability depends upon and may be affected by local economic conditions.

The general economic conditions in the markets in which we operate are a key component to our success. This comes from both the rural Middle Peninsula and
urban Richmond markets in which we operate. Changes in the general economic conditions in these markets, caused by inflation, recession, acts of terrorism, unemployment or other factors beyond our control, may influence the rate of growth
experienced for both loans and deposits and negatively affect financial condition, performance and profitability.

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

We compete for deposits, loans and other financial
services in markets with numerous other banks, thrifts and financial institutions. There are many financial institutions in these markets that have been in business for many years and are significantly larger, have customer bases well established
and have higher lending limits and greater financial resources.

Concentrations in loans secured by real estate may increase credit losses, which would
have a negative effect on our financial results.

Many of our loans are secured by real estate (both commercial and residential) in our
market area. A variety of loans secured by real estate are offered, including commercial lines of credit, commercial term loans, real estate, construction, home equity, consumer and other loans. At December 31, 2007, approximately 86.3% of our
loans were secured by real estate. A major change in the real estate market, such as deterioration in value of the property, or in the local or national economy, could adversely affect our customers ability to pay these loans, which in turn
could adversely impact us.

##### Table of Contents

If our allowance for loan losses becomes inadequate, our results of operations may be adversely affected.

An essential element of our business is to make loans. We maintain an allowance for loan losses that we believe is a reasonable
estimate of known and inherent losses within the loan portfolio. Experience in the banking industry indicates that some portion of our loans may only be partially repaid or may never be repaid at all. Loan losses occur for many reasons beyond our
control. Although we believe that we maintain our allowance for loan losses at a level adequate to absorb losses in our loan portfolio, estimates of loan losses are subjective and their accuracy may depend on the outcome of future events. We may be
required to make significant and unanticipated increases in the allowance for loan losses during future periods, which could materially affect our financial position, results of operations and liquidity. Bank regulatory authorities, as an integral
part of their respective supervisory functions, periodically review our allowance for loan losses. These regulatory authorities may require adjustments to the allowance for loan losses or may require recognition of additional loan losses or
charge-offs based upon their own judgment. Any change in the allowance for loan losses or charge-offs required by bank regulatory authorities could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.

Our profitability and the value of shareholders investments may suffer because of rapid and unpredictable changes in the highly regulated environment in
which we operate.

We are subject to extensive supervision by several governmental regulatory agencies at the federal and state levels
in the financial services area. Recently enacted, proposed and future legislation and regulations have had, and will continue to have, or may have a significant impact on the financial services industry. These regulations, which are generally
intended to protect depositors and not shareholders, and the interpretation and application of them by federal and state regulators, are beyond our control, may change rapidly and unpredictably and can be expected to influence earnings and growth.
Our success depends on our continued ability to maintain compliance with these regulations. Some of these regulations may increase costs and thus place other financial institutions that are not subject to similar regulation in stronger, more
favorable competitive positions.

We depend on key personnel for success.

Our operating results and ability to adequately manage our growth and minimize loan and lease losses are highly dependent on the services, managerial
abilities and performance of our current executive officers and other key personnel. We have an experienced management team that the Board of Directors believes is capable of managing and growing our operations. However, losses of or changes in our
current executive officers or other key personnel and their responsibilities may disrupt our business and could adversely affect financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in
retaining our current executive officers or other key personnel.

If additional capital were needed in the future to continue growth, we may not be able
to obtain it on terms that are favorable. This could negatively affect performance and the value of our common stock.

Our business
strategy calls for continued growth. It is anticipated that we will be able to support this growth through the generation of additional deposits at branch locations as well as investment opportunities. However, we may need to raise additional
capital in the future to support continued growth and to maintain capital levels. The 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. We may not be able to obtain additional capital in the amounts or on terms satisfactory to us. Our growth may be constrained if we are unable to raise additional capital as needed.

Changes in accounting standards could impact reported earnings.

The accounting standard setters, including the FASB, SEC and other regulatory bodies, periodically change the financial accounting and reporting standards that govern the preparation of our consolidated financial
statements. These changes can materially impact how we record and report our financial condition and results of operations. In some instances, we could be required to apply a new or revised standard retroactively, resulting in the restatement of
prior period financial statements.

|ITEM 7. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION
|------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following discussion is intended to assist the readers in understanding and evaluating the financial condition and results of operation of BOE
Financial Services of Virginia, Inc. This review should be read in conjunction with the Corporations consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included elsewhere in this Annual Report. This analysis provides an overview of the
significant changes that occurred during the periods presented.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

General

The Corporations financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). The financial information contained within our statements is, to a significant extent, based on measures of the financial effects of transactions and events that have already
occurred. A variety of factors could affect the ultimate value that is obtained either when earning income, recognizing expense, recovering an asset or relieving a liability. We use historical loss factors as one factor in determining the inherent
loss that may be present in our loan portfolio. Actual losses could differ significantly from the historical factors that we use. In addition, GAAP itself may change from one previously acceptable method to another method. Although the economics of
our transactions would be the same, the timing of events that would impact our transactions could change.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is an estimate of the losses that may be sustained in our loan portfolio. The allowance is based on two basic principles of
accounting: (i) SFAS 5, Accounting for Contingencies, which requires that losses be accrued when they are probable of occurring and estimatable and (ii) SFAS 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, which requires that losses
be accrued based on the differences between the value of collateral, present value of future cash flows or values that are observable in the secondary market and the loan balance. The use of these values is inherently subjective and our actual
losses could be greater or less than the estimates.

The allowance for loan losses is increased by charges to income and decreased by
charge-offs (net of recoveries). Managements periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based on past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrowers ability
to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, and current economic conditions.

OVERVIEW

The Corporations strategic plan is directed toward the enhancement of its franchise value and operating profitability by increasing its asset size
and expanding its customer base. The Corporation operates eight full service offices mainly between its headquarters in Tappahannock, Virginia and along the U. S. 360 corridor to the Richmond, Virginia metropolitan market. Management believes that
its most significant profitable growth opportunities will continue to be within one hour of Tappahannock. (See Part I, Item 1. Business, General for further explanation on the Corporations strategic plan.)

Year 2007 Compared to Year 2006

On December 31, 2007,
the Corporation had total assets of $302.431 million, total loans $221.549 million, total deposits of $244.593 million and total stockholders equity of $30.109 million. BOE had net income of $2.608 million in 2007, a decrease of 16.5%, or
$515,000, from net income of $3.123 million in 2006. This resulted in fully diluted earnings per common share of $2.15 in 2007 compared to $2.58 per common share for the year 2006. Return on average equity was 9.03% in 2007 compared to 11.47% in
2006. Return on average assets was 0.90% in 2007 compared to 1.15% in 2006.

Year 2006 Compared to Year 2005

On December 31, 2006, the Corporation had total assets of $281.378 million, total loans of $196.891 million, total deposits of $230.865 million and total stockholders equity of $28.047 million. BOE had net
income of $3.123 million in 2006, a $22,000, or 0.7% increase from $3.101 million in net income in 2005. Fully diluted earnings per common share were $2.58 in both 2006 and 2005. Return on average equity of 11.47% in 2006 compared to 12.18% in 2005.
Return on average assets in 2006 was 1.15%, compared to 1.24% in 2005. BOEs total loans increased 7.9%, or $14.435 million, in 2006 over 2005.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NET INCOME

Year
2007 Compared to Year 2006

BOEs net income was $2.608 million in 2007 compared to $3.123 million in 2006. This represents a decrease
in net income of $515,000, or 16.5%. Diluted earnings per share in 2007 were $2.15 per share compared to $2.58 in 2006. These earnings per share are based on average shares outstanding of 1,214,944 in 2007 and 1,210,922 in 2006. This decrease in
earnings was primarily the result of an increase of $871,000, or 11.0%, in noninterest expenses. Salaries was the largest component of this increase, $432,000, which increased primarily from the addition of staff that was hired and trained in 2007
to operate two new full service offices of Bank of Essex in Northumberland County, Virginia. Additionally, 2007 was the first full year of operations for the Corporate Headquarters and branch banking facility that opened in June 2006, accounting for
the majority of increases in occupancy expenses and furniture and equipment expenses of $159,000. Gain/(loss) on sale of other properties decreased $472,000 from 2006 to 2007 due to the sale of bank property in 2006 of a former branch banking
facility. Additionally, legal and professional fees increased $236,000 in 2007 compared to 2006 as a result of the Companys due diligence and legal review process prior to announcing a merger agreement dated December 14, 2007 with
Community Bankers Acquisition Corporation. This transaction, if approved by regulatory authorities and shareholders, should close by mid-year 2008. Offsetting these decreases to net income was an increase of $237,000, or 2.4%, in net interest
income, from $9.762 million in 2006 to $9.999 million in 2007. Noninterest income increased $204,000, or 11.4%, from $1.796 million in 2006 to $2.000 million in 2007. Also improving net income was a 95.2%, or $119,000, reduction in provision for
loan losses and a 33.5%, or $292,000, decrease in income tax expense for 2007 compared to 2006. Earnings per common share were $2.15 for the full year 2007 compared to $2.58 for the same period in 2006.

Year 2006 Compared to Year 2005

BOE had net income of
$3.123 million in 2006 compared to $3.101 million in 2005. This represented an increase of 0.7%, or $22,000. Diluted earnings per share in 2006 were $2.58, compared to diluted earnings per share in 2005 of $2.58. These earnings per share are based
on average shares outstanding of 1,210,922 in 2006 and 1,203,725 in 2005. The increase in net income included a $490,000 increase in total profits (losses) on other properties resulting from a $485,000 gain on the sale of a bank building. Also
improving net income was $160,000 in increases in other categories of noninterest income and a $115,000 reduction in provision for loan losses. Offsetting these increases in net income for 2006 compared to 2005 was a decrease of $112,000, or 1.1%,
in net interest income. Comprising net interest income was a $2.391 million, or 16.7%, increase in interest income which was offset by an increase of $2.503 million, or 56.0%, in interest expenses caused by fierce competition among banks for funding
and an inverted yield curve throughout much of 2006. Also affecting net income was an increase of $631,000, or 8.7%, in noninterest expenses, $93,000 of which was related to the opening of a new headquarters during 2006.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income is the major
component of the Corporations earnings and is equal to the amount by which interest income exceeds interest expense. The Corporations earning assets are composed primarily of loans and securities, while deposits and short-term borrowings
represent the major portion of interest-bearing liabilities. Changes in the volume and mix of these assets and liabilities, as well as changes in the yields earned and rates paid, determine changes in net interest income.

The increase in yield on earning assets of 28 basis points coupled with the increased of interest-bearing liabilities of 55 basis
points resulted in a net interest margin for the Corporation of 4.03% in 2007 compared to 4.23% in 2006. Volume increases in loans, coupled with higher rate and volume increases on interest-bearing liabilities resulted in a decrease in the interest
spread. The Corporations net interest spread decreased 27 basis points from 3.78% in 2006 to 3.51% in 2007. Spread is calculated by subtracting the cost of interest-bearing liabilities from the yield on earning assets.

basis points resulted in a net interest margin for the Corporation of 4.23% in 2006 compared to a net interest margin of 4.55% in 2005. Net interest margin is calculated by dividing the Corporations net interest income on a tax equivalent
basis by the average earning assets. Volume increases in loans, coupled with higher rate and volume increases on interest-bearing liabilities resulted in a decrease in the interest spread. The Corporations net interest spread decreased 39
basis points from 4.17% in 2005 to 3.78% in 2006.

BOEs net interest margin is affected by changes in the amount and mix of earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities, referred to as a volume change. It is also affected by changes in yields earned on earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing deposits and other borrowed funds, referred to as a rate
change. The following table sets forth for each category of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities,

|(1) | Income and yields are reported on a tax-equivalent basis assuming a federal tax rate of 34%.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Net interest income is affected by both (1) changes in the interest rate spread (the difference between the weighted average yield on interest
earning assets and the weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities) and (2) changes in volume (average balances of interest earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities).

For each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided regarding changes attributable to (1) changes
in volume of balances outstanding (changes in volume multiplied by prior period interest rate), (2) changes in the interest earned or paid on the balances (changes in rate multiplied by prior period volume) and (3) a combination of changes
in volume and rate allocated pro rata.

INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY

An important component of both earnings performance and liquidity is management of interest rate sensitivity. Interest rate sensitivity reflects the potential effect on net interest income of a movement in market
interest rates. BOE is subject to interest rate sensitivity to the degree that its interest earning assets mature or reprice at a different time interval from that of its interest-bearing liabilities.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

The provision for loan losses is charged to income to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level deemed appropriate by management of the Corporation based on such factors as historical experience, the volume
and type of lending conducted by the Corporation, the amount of non-performing assets, regulatory policies, generally accepted accounting principles, general economic conditions, and other factors related to the collectability of loans in the
Corporations portfolio.

The provision for loan losses was $6,000 in 2007, a decrease of $119,000, or 95.2%, compared to the $125,000
in provision for 2006. During the third quarter of 2007 the Company realized a recovery of $400,000 of a loan charge-off from 2002. This has bolstered the Companys allowance for loan losses. Allowance for loan losses was $2.595 million on
December 31, 2007 compared to $2.400 million on December 31, 2006. This was 1.17% of total loans on December 31, 2007 and 1.22% of total loans on December 31, 2006. Charged-off loans were in a net recovery position in 2007 of
$189,000 after charging off $256,000 and recovering a total of $445,000. This compares to net recoveries of $26,000 in 2006 after charging off $138,000 in loans and recognizing $164,000 in recoveries.

Management believes the allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb losses inherent in the loan portfolio. In view of the Corporations plans to
continue its loan growth, management will continue to closely monitor the performance of its portfolio and make additional provisions as necessary.

Analysis of Financial Condition

Loan Portfolio

The loan portfolio is the largest category of the Corporations earning assets
and is comprised of commercial loans, agricultural loans, real estate loans, home equity loans, construction loans, consumer loans, and participation loans with other financial institutions. The primary markets in which the Corporation makes loans
include the counties of Essex, King and Queen, King William, Hanover, Northumberland, Henrico and the City of Richmond. The mix of the loan portfolio is weighted toward loans secured by real estate and commercial loans. In managements opinion,
there are no significant concentrations of credit with particular borrowers engaged in similar activities.

BOEs total loans
increased 12.7%, or $24.659 million, in 2007 over 2006. Total loans were $221.549 million at December 31, 2007 compared to $196.891 million at December 31, 2006. Loan increases came from primarily loans secured by real estate, including
loans secured by 1  4 family properties and commercial construction lending. This is due to continued growth in and around the corridor surrounding Richmond, Virginia, including the area in and around Essex County. At December 31, 2007,
the ratio of non-performing assets to total assets was 0.70% compared to 0.62% at December 31, 2006. Net recoveries to average loans were 0.09% in 2007 and 0.01% in 2006. Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest at
December 31, 2007 were $18,000 and $102,000 at December 31, 2006. The Corporations allowance for loan losses to period end loans at December 31, 2007 was 1.17% compared to 1.22% at December 31, 2006.

BOEs total loans increased 7.9%, or $14.435 million, in 2006 over 2005. Total loans were $196.891 million at December 31, 2006 compared to
$182.456 million at December 31, 2005. Loan increases came from loans secured by real estate, including loans secured by 1  4 family properties and commercial lending. This is due to continued growth in and around the corridor surrounding
Richmond, Virginia, including the area in and around Essex County. At December 31, 2006, the ratio of non-performing assets to total assets was 0.62% compared to 0.72% at December 31, 2005. Net recoveries to average loans were 0.01% in
2006 compared to net charge offs of 0.05% in 2005. Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest at December 31, 2006 were $102,000 and $260,000 at December 31, 2005. The Corporations allowance for loan losses to period
end loans at December 31, 2006 was 1.22% compared to 1.23% at December 31, 2005.

Net loans consist of total loans minus the
allowance for loan losses, unearned discounts and deferred loan fees. The Corporations net loans were $218.954 million at December 31, 2007, representing an increase of 12.6%, or $24.463 million more than net loans of $194.491 million at
December 31, 2006. The average balance of loans as a percentage of average earning assets was 78.3% in 2007, up slightly from 76.4% in 2006.

In the normal course of business, the Corporation makes various commitments and incurs certain contingent liabilities, which are disclosed but not reflected in the consolidated financial statements contained in this Annual Report, including
standby letters of credit and commitments to extend credit. At December 31, 2007, commitments for standby letters of credit totaled $3.867 million and commitments to extend credit totaled $58.573 million. Commitments for standby letters of
credit totaled $4.971 million at December 31, 2006 and commitments to extend credit totaled $45.251 million.

ASSET QUALITY

Generally, interest on loans is accrued and credited to income based upon the principal balance outstanding. It is typically the Corporations policy to discontinue the accrual of interest income and classify a
loan on non-accrual when principal or interest is past due 90 days or more and the loan is not well-secured and in the process of collection, or when, in the opinion of management, principal or interest is not likely to be paid in accordance with
the terms of the obligation.

The Corporation will generally charge-off loans after 120 days of delinquency unless they are adequately
collateralized, in the process of collection and, based on a probable specific event, management believes that the loan will be repaid or brought current within a reasonable period of time. Loans will not be returned to accrual status until future
payments of principal and interest appear certain. Interest accrued and unpaid at the time a loan is placed on non-accrual status is charged against interest income. Subsequent payments received are applied to the outstanding principal balance.

Real estate acquired by the Corporation as a result of foreclosure or in-substance foreclosure is classified as other real estate owned
(OREO). Such real estate is recorded at the lower of cost or fair market value less estimated selling costs, and the estimated loss, if any, is charged to the allowance for loan losses at that time. Further allowances for losses are
recorded as charges to other expenses at the time management believes additional deterioration in value has occurred. The Corporation had no OREO at December 31, 2007 or 2006.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

In originating loans, the Corporation recognizes that credit losses will be experienced and the risk of loss will vary with, among other things, general economic conditions, the type of loan being made, the
creditworthiness of the borrower over the term of the loan and, in the case of a collateralized loan, the quality of the collateral for such loan. The Corporation maintains an allowance for loan losses based upon, among other things, historical
experience, the volume and type of lending conducted by the Corporation, the amount of non-performing assets, regulatory policies, generally accepted accounting principles, general economic conditions, and other factors related to the collectability
of loans in the Corporations portfolios. In addition to general allowances, specific allowances are provided for individual loans when ultimate collection is considered questionable by management after reviewing the current status of loans,
which are contractually past due and after considering the net realizable value of any collateral for the loan.

Management actively
monitors the Corporations asset quality in a continuing effort to charge-off loans against the allowance for loan losses when appropriate and to provide specific loss allowances when necessary. Although management believes it uses the best
information available to make determinations with respect to the allowance for loan losses, future adjustments may be necessary if economic conditions differ from the assumptions used in making the initial determinations. As of December 31,
2007, the allowance for loan losses amounted to $2.595 million, or 1.17% of total loans. The Corporations allowance for loan losses was $2.400 million at December 31, 2006, or 1.22% of total loans.

The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of non-performing assets was 122.06% at December 31, 2007. The ratio of allowance for loan losses as a
percentage of non-performing assets at December 31, 2006 was 136.67%.

SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS

BOE occasionally finds it necessary to purchase funds on a short-term basis due to fluctuations in loan and deposit levels. BOE has several arrangements under which it may purchase funds. Federal Funds guidance
facilities are maintained with correspondent banks totaling $16.500 million for the year ending December 31, 2007. $3.152 million was drawn on these facilities at December 31, 2007. As another means of borrowing funds, BOE may borrow from
the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta. Total expense on Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta borrowings in 2007 was $717,000 and in 2006 as $476,000. Total expense on Federal Funds purchased and other borrowings was $44,000 in 2007 and $102,000 in
2006.

CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

The determination of capital adequacy depends upon a number of factors, such as asset quality, liquidity, earnings, growth trends and economic conditions. The Corporation seeks to maintain a strong capital base to
support its growth and expansion plans, provide stability to current operations and promote public confidence in the Corporation.

The
Corporations capital position exceeds all regulatory minimums. The federal banking regulators have defined three tests for assessing the capital strength and adequacy of banks, based on two definitions of capital. Tier 1 Capital is
defined as a combination of common and qualifying preferred stockholders equity less goodwill. Tier 2 Capital is defined as qualifying subordinated debt and a portion of the allowance for loan losses. Total Capital is
defined as Tier 1 Capital plus Tier 2 Capital. Three risk-based capital ratios are computed using the above capital definitions, total assets and risk-weighted assets and are measured against regulatory minimums to ascertain adequacy. All assets and
off-balance sheet risk items are grouped into categories according to degree of risk and assigned a risk-weighting and the resulting total is risk-weighted assets. Total Risk-based Capital is Total Capital divided by risk-weighted
assets. The Leverage ratio is Tier 1 Capital divided by total average assets.

During the fourth quarter of 2003 the Company engaged in a
trust preferred offering, raising $4.124 million in trust preferred subordinated debt which qualifies as capital for regulatory purposes. This trust preferred debt has a 30-year maturity with a 5-year call option and was issued at a rate of three
month LIBOR plus 3.00% for a weighted average rate of 8.325% during 2007.

The following table shows the Corporations capital ratios:

LIQUIDITY

Liquidity represents the Corporations ability to meet present and future financial obligations through either the sale or maturity of existing assets or the acquisition of additional funds through liability
management. Liquid assets include cash, interest-bearing deposits with banks, federal funds sold, and certain investment securities. As a result of the Corporations management of liquid assets and the ability to generate liquidity through
liability funding, management believes that the Corporation maintains overall liquidity sufficient to satisfy its depositors requirements and meet its customers credit needs.

As of December 31, 2007, cash, federal funds sold and available-for-sale securities represented 22.55% of deposits and other liabilities compared to
25.90% at December 31, 2006. Managing loan maturities also provides asset liquidity. At December 31, 2007 approximately $102.822 million in loans would mature or reprice with a one-year period.

The following table summarizes the Corporations liquid assets for the periods indicated:

FINANCIAL RATIOS

Financial ratios give investors a way to compare Corporations within industries to analyze financial performance. Return on average assets is net income as a percentage of average total assets. It is a key
profitability ratio that indicates how effectively a bank has used its total resources. Return on average assets was 0.90% in 2007 and 1.15% in 2006. Return on average equity is net income as a percentage of average shareholders equity. It
provides a measure of how productively a Corporations equity has been employed. BOEs return on average equity was 9.03% in 2007 and 11.47% in 2006. Dividend payout ratio is the percentage of net income paid to shareholders as cash
dividends during a given period. It is computed by dividing dividends per share by net income per share. BOE has a dividend payout ratio of 38.04% in 2007 and 29.67% in 2006. The Corporation utilizes leverage within guidelines prescribed by federal
banking regulators as described in the section Capital Requirements in the preceding section. Leverage is average stockholders equity divided by total quarterly average assets. This ratio was 11.53% in 2007 and 11.70% in 2006.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK AND

CREDIT RISK AND CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

The Bank is a
party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its clients and to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These financial instruments include commitments
to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments
reflect the extent of involvement the Bank has in particular classes of financial instruments.

The Banks exposure to credit loss in
the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making
commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a client as long as there is no violation
of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total
commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each clients credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit,
is based on managements credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment, and income-producing commercial properties.

Unfunded commitments under lines of credit are commitments for possible future extensions of credit to existing clients. Those lines of credit may not be
drawn upon to the total extent to which the Bank is committed.

##### Table of Contents

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of
a client to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, bond financing, and similar transactions. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is
essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to clients. The Bank holds certificates of deposit, deposit accounts, and real estate as collateral supporting those commitments for which collateral is deemed necessary.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair
Value Measurements (SFAS 157). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 does not
require any new fair value measurements, but rather, provides enhanced guidance to other pronouncements that require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal
years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those years. As of December 1, 2007, the FASB has proposed a one-year deferral for the implementation of the Statement for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities
that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a nonrecurring basis. The Corporation does not expect the implementation of SFAS 157 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other
Postretirement Plans  an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R) (SFAS 158). This Statement requires that employers measure plan assets and obligations as of the balance sheet date. This requirement is
effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. The other provisions of SFAS 158 were implemented by the [Company/Bank] as of December 31, 2006. The Corporation does not expect the implementation of the measurement date
provisions of SFAS 158 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

##### Table of Contents

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option
for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (SFAS 159). This Statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective of this Statement is to improve
financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. The fair value
option established by this Statement permits all entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates. A business entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been
elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The fair value option may be applied instrument by instrument and is irrevocable. SFAS 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entitys first fiscal year that begins after
November 15, 2007, with early adoption available in certain circumstances. The Corporation does not expect the implementation of SFAS 159 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141(R), Business Combinations (SFAS 141(R)). The Standard
will significantly change the financial accounting and reporting of business combination transactions. SFAS 141(R) establishes principles for how an acquirer recognizes and measures the identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any
noncontrolling interest in the acquiree; recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase; and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate
the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS 141(R) is effective for acquisition dates on or after the beginning of an entitys first year that begins after December 15, 2008. The Corporation does not expect the
implementation of SFAS 141(R) to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements an Amendment of ARB No. 51 (SFAS 160). The Standard will significantly change the financial accounting and reporting of
noncontrolling (or minority) interests in consolidated financial statements. SFAS 160 is effective as of the beginning of an entitys first fiscal year that begins after December 15, 2008, with early adoption permitted. The Corporation
does not expect the implementation of SFAS 160 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In September 2006, the Emerging Issues
Task Force (EITF) issued EITF 06-4, Accounting for Deferred Compensation and Postretirement Benefit Aspects of Endorsement Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements. This consensus concludes that for a split-dollar life
insurance arrangement within the scope of this Issue, an employer should recognize a liability for future benefits in accordance with SFAS 106 (if, in substance, a postretirement benefit plan exists) or APB Opinion No. 12 (if the arrangement
is, in substance, an individual deferred compensation contract) based on the substantive agreement with the employee. The consensus is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007, with early application permitted. The
Corporation does not expect the implementation of EITF 06-4 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2006, the EITF
issued Accounting for Collateral Assignment Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements (EITF 06-10). In this Issue, a consensus was reached that an employer should recognize a liability for the postretirement benefit related to
a collateral assignment split-dollar life insurance arrangement in accordance with either SFAS 106 or APB Opinion No. 12, as appropriate, if the employer has agreed to maintain a life insurance policy during the employees retirement or
provide the employee with a death benefit based on the substantive agreement with the employee. A consensus also was reached that an employer should recognize and measure an asset based on the nature and substance of the collateral assignment
split-dollar life insurance arrangement. The consensuses are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early application permitted. The Corporation does not expect
the implementation of EITF 06-10 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 158-1,
Conforming Amendments to the Illustrations in FASB Statements No. 87, No. 88 and No. 106 and to the Related Staff Implementation Guides. This FSP provides conforming amendments to the illustrations in SFAS 87, 88, and 106
and to related staff implementation guides as a result of the issuance of SFAS 158. The conforming amendments made by this FSP are effective as of the effective dates of SFAS 158. The unaffected guidance that this FSP codifies into SFAS 87, 88, and
106 does not contain new requirements and therefore does not require a separate effective date or transition method. The Corporation does not expect the implementation of FSP No. FAS 158-1 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial
statements.

In November 2007, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 109,
Written Loan Commitments Recorded at Fair Value Through Earnings (SAB 109). SAB 109 expresses the current view of the staff that the expected net future cash flows related to the associated servicing of the loan should be
included in the measurement of all written loan commitments that are accounted for at fair value through earnings. SEC registrants are expected to apply the views in Question 1 of SAB 109 on a prospective basis to derivative loan commitments issued
or modified in fiscal quarters beginning after December 15, 2007. The Corporation does not expect the implementation of SAB 109 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

110). SAB 110 expresses the current view of the staff that it will accept a companys election to use the simplified method discussed in SAB 107 for estimating the expected term of plain vanilla share options regardless of
whether the company has sufficient information to make more refined estimates. The staff noted that it understands that detailed information about employee exercise patterns may not be widely available by December 31, 2007. Accordingly, the
staff will continue to accept, under certain circumstances, the use of the simplified method beyond December 31, 2007. The Corporation does not expect the implementation of SAB 110 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial
statements.



|ITEM 7A. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
|-------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in the fair value of financial instruments due to changes in interest rates, exchange rates and equity prices. The Corporations market risk is composed primarily of interest
rate risk. The Corporations Asset and Liability Management Committee (ALCO) is responsible for reviewing the interest rate sensitivity position and establishing policies to monitor and limit exposure to this risk. The Board of
Directors reviews and approves the guidelines established by ALCO.

Interest rate risk is monitored through the use of two complimentary
modeling tools: earnings simulation modeling and economic value simulation (net present value estimation). Each of these models measures changes in a variety of interest rate scenarios. While each of the interest rate risk measures has limitations,
taken together they represent a reasonably comprehensive view of the magnitude of interest rate risk in the Corporation, the distribution of risk along the yield curve, the level of risk through time, and the amount of exposure to changes in certain
interest rate relationships. Earnings simulation and economic value models, which more effectively measure the cash flow and optionality impacts, are utilized by management on a regular basis and are explained below.

Earnings Simulation Analysis

Management uses
simulation analysis to measure the sensitivity of net interest income to changes in interest rates. The model calculates an earnings estimate based on current and projected balances and rates. This method is subject to the accuracy of the
assumptions that management has input, but it provides a better analysis of the sensitivity of earnings to changes in interest rates than other potential analyses.

Assumptions used in the model are derived from historical trends and managements outlook and include loan and deposit growth rates and projected yields and rates. Such assumptions are monitored and periodically
adjusted as appropriate. All maturities, calls and prepayments in the securities portfolio are assumed to be reinvested in like instruments. Mortgage loans and mortgage backed securities prepayment assumptions are based on industry estimates of
prepayment speeds for portfolios with similar coupon ranges and seasoning. Different interest rate scenarios and yield curves are used to measure the sensitivity of earnings to changing interest rates. Interest rates on different asset and liability
accounts move differently when the prime rate changes and are reflected in the different rate scenarios.

The Corporation uses its
simulation model to estimate earnings in rate environments where rates ramp up or down around a most likely rate scenario, based on implied forward rates. The analysis assesses the impact on net interest income over a 12 month time
horizon by applying 12-month shock versus the implied forward rates of 200 basis points up and down. The following table represents the interest rate sensitivity on net interest income for the Corporation across the rate paths modeled as of
December 31, 2007:

Economic Value Simulation

Economic value simulation is used to determine the estimated fair value of assets and liabilities over different interest rate scenarios. Economic values
are calculated based on discounted cash flow analysis. The net economic value of equity is the economic value of all assets minus the economic value of all liabilities. The change in net economic value over different rate scenarios is an indication
of the longer term earnings sensitivity capability of the balance sheet. The same assumptions are used in the economic value simulation as in the earnings simulation. The economic value simulation uses simultaneous rate shocks to the balance sheet,
whereas the earnings simulation uses rate shock over 12 months. The following chart reflects the estimated change in net economic value over different rate environments using economic value simulation as of December 31, 2007:

|-------- | -----------------------

As of the end of the
period to which this report relates, the Corporation has carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Corporations management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the
effectiveness of the design and operation of the Corporations disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-14 of the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, the Corporations Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer concluded that the Corporations disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material

information relating to the Corporations (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in the Corporations periodic SEC
filings. There have been no significant changes in the Corporations internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date the Corporation carried out its evaluation.

The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. There can be no assurance that any
design will succeed in achieving its stated goal under every potential condition, regardless of how remote. In addition, the operation of any system of controls and procedures is dependent upon the employees responsible for executing it. While we
have evaluated the operation of our disclosure controls and procedures and found them effective, there can be no assurance that they will succeed in every instance to achieve their objective.

Managements Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in the Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f). A system of 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 for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial
officer, the Corporations management has evaluated the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007 based on the criteria established in a report entitled Internal ControlIntegrated
Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and the interpretive guidance issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission in Release No. 34-55929. Based on this evaluation, the Corporations
management has evaluated and concluded that the Companys internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2007.

The Corporation is continuously seeking to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of its operations and of its internal controls. This results in modifications to its processes throughout the Corporation. However, there has been no change
in its internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Corporations most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporations internal control over
financial reporting.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Corporations independent registered public
accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. The Corporations registered public accounting firm was not required to issue an attestation on its internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to temporary rules of
the Securities and Exchange Commission.

|ITEM 11: | EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
|-------- | ----------------------

Compensation Committee

The compensation committee consists of Mr. R. Tyler Bland, III, Mr. L. McCauley Chenault, Mrs. Frances H. Ellis and
Mr. P. Emerson Hughes, Jr. The members of the compensation committee are independent directors as defined by applicable NASDAQ listing standards. The compensation committee reviews and recommends the levels and types of compensation of
directors, officers and employees. Mr. Minor and Mr. Hughes serve as a subcommittee that administers all incentive and stock option plans for the benefit of employees and directors eligible to participate in such plans. The compensation
committee met three times in 2007. The compensation committee has not adopted a written charter.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The Companys Executive Compensation Philosophy

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the Committee) is responsible for establishing and approving the compensation of executive officers of the Company. The Committee considers a variety of factors and criteria
in arriving at its decisions and recommendations for compensation. The Committees objective is to align the interests of the Companys executive officers with those of the Company and its shareholders. The Committee believes that
increases in earnings per share, dividends, and shareholders equity improve shareholder market value.

Objectives

Our compensation program generally consists of salary, bonus, and benefits. Benefits include the Companys defined benefit pension plan, supplemental
retirement plan, participation in the Companys 401(k) plan and health insurance benefits. In addition, the Company offers perquisites to certain executive officers such as use of Company owned vehicles. We recognize that competitive
compensation is critical for attracting, motivating, and rewarding qualified executives. Therefore, one of the fundamental objectives of our compensation program is to offer competitive compensation and benefits for all employees, including
executive officers, to compete for and retain talented personnel who will lead us in achieving levels of financial performance that enhance shareholder value.

Salary

The base salary of each executive officer named in the Summary Compensation Table below (the named executive
officers) is designed to be competitive with that of the Companys peer banks. In establishing the base salary for the named executive officers, the Committee relies on an evaluation of the officers level of responsibility and
performance and on comparative information, including the Virginia Bankers Associations Salary Survey of Virginia Banks. In establishing the base salary, other than for the Chief Executive Officer, the Committee also receives and takes into
account the individual compensation recommendations from the Chief Executive Officer. The salary of the Chief Executive Officer is approved by the independent members of the Board of Directors, upon recommendation of the Committee.

Bonus

The Company does not have a formal bonus plan
that specifies potential bonus amounts in terms of a percentage of base salary. Cash bonus awards are entirely at the discretion of the Committee. In determining whether or not to award cash bonuses and the level of such bonuses for a given year,
the Committee considers the overall performance of the Company, including but not limited to, such factors as earnings per share, return on equity, growth and shareholder value, as well as their subjective evaluation of the executive officers
individual performance. Cash bonus awards for similar executives in market comparisons are also considered.

Stock Incentive Plan and Stock Option Plan for Outside Directors

The Company maintains two stock option plans designed to attract and retain qualified personnel in key positions, provide employees and directors with a
proprietary interest in the Company as an incentive to contribute to the success of the Company and reward employees and directors for outstanding performance and the attainment of targeted goals. The stock option plans were approved by shareholders
at the May 2000 Annual Meeting, became effective July 1, 2000 and will expire July 1, 2010. The employee plan is the BOE Financial Services of Virginia, Inc. Stock Incentive Plan and provides for the grant of 100,000 incentive stock
options to employees intended to comply with the requirements of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. The director plan is administered under the BOE Financial Services of Virginia, Inc. Stock Option Plan for Outside Directors and
authorizes the grant of 10,000 non-qualified stock options for directors.

The stock option plans are administered by Mr. Minor and
Mr. Hughes, a subcommittee of the Compensation Committee. Under the plans, the subcommittee determines which employees and directors will be granted options, whether such options will be incentive or non-qualified options, the number of shares
subject to each option, whether such options may be exercised by delivering other shares of Common Stock and when such options will become exercisable. In general, the per share exercise price of an incentive stock option and a non-qualified stock
option must be at least equal to the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date the option is granted.

Stock options become
vested and exercisable in the manner specified by the Committee. Each stock option or portion thereof is exercisable at any time on or after it vests until ten years after its date of grant. A review was performed in 2007 of all stock option grants.
The review verified that all options were priced at or above the closing stock price on the day the option was approved by the Board of Directors and granted.

There were no stock options awarded during 2007, due primarily to changes in accounting standards for stock options and the impact of those changes on reported earnings. Additionally, on December 22, 2005, the
Board of Directors voted to accelerate the vesting on all outstanding options in order to eliminate the recognition of compensation expense associated with the affected options under SFAS 123R, which became applicable to the Company beginning in the
first quarter of 2006. The Committees ongoing review of executive compensation will include a determination as to whether use of stock option plans or other equity awards is to be recommended.

Pension Plan

The Bank of Essex maintains a
noncontributory defined benefit pension plan for all full-time employees who are 21 years of age or older and who have completed one year of eligibility service. Benefits payable under the plan are based on years of credited service, average
compensation over the highest consecutive five years, and the plans benefit formula (1.60% of average compensation times years of credited service in excess of 20 years but not in excess of 35 years plus .65% (70% if SSNRA is 66) of average
compensation in excess of Social Security Covered Compensation times years of credited service up to a maximum of 35 years). For 2006, the maximum allowable annual benefit payable by the plan at age 65 (the plans normal retirement age) was
$175,000 and the maximum compensation covered by the plan was $220,000. Reduced early retirement benefits are payable on or after age 55 upon completion of 10 years of credited service. Amounts payable under the plan are not subject to reduction for
Social Security benefits.

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan

The Bank has adopted a non-tax qualified Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) for certain executives to supplement the benefits such executives can receive under the Banks other retirement
programs and social security. Retirement benefits under the SERP vary by individual and are payable at age 65 for 15 years or life, whichever is longer. In the event of termination prior to age 65 (for reasons other than death, subsequent to a
change of control or for cause), benefits still commence at age 65, but are substantially reduced. Benefits payable in the event of termination following a change of control or death commence upon termination or death, and are the approximate
actuarial equivalent of the value of normal retirement benefits. No benefits are payable in the event that termination is for cause.

Directors
Supplemental Retirement Plan

In 2006, the Company established the Directors Supplemental Retirement Plan for its non-employee
directors. The Directors Supplemental Retirement Plan is designed to retain the future services of directors. This plan provides for a benefit upon the later of October 1, 2010 or retirement from service on

##### Table of Contents

the Board at the normal retirement age of 75. Benefits under this plan are payable at retirement for a period of 10 years. The Directors
Supplemental Retirement Plan also contains provisions for change of control, as defined, which allow the directors to retain benefits under the plan in the event of a termination of service subsequent to a change of control, other than for cause.

401(k) Employee Savings Plan

The
Company sponsors a 401(k) Employee Savings Plan, for which all full-time employees who are 21 years of age or older are eligible to participate. The Company matches 50% of employee contributions on the first 4% of earned compensation. While employee
contributions are immediately vested, the Company contributions are subject to a stated vesting schedule.

Employment Continuity Agreements

The Company has entered into employment continuity agreements (the Continuity Agreements) with each of George M. Longest,
Jr., Bruce E. Thomas, K. Wayne Aylor, Terrell D. Vaughan, Suzanne S. Rennolds, Bonnie S. Courtney and William E. Saunders, Jr. (the Executives and/or Executive) in order to secure their continued services and enable them to
devote their full efforts to the Company in the event of a change of control of the Company. Under the Continuity Agreements, each Executive is entitled to certain salary continuance benefits, welfare continuance benefits and outplacement services
if the Company terminates his or her employment for any reason other than cause, or if the Executive terminates for certain specific reasons, set forth below, within two years following a change of control.

The salary continuance benefit is an amount equal to two times, in the case of Messrs. Longest and Thomas, and one time, in the case of the other Executives, the sum of
the Executives base salary in effect as of the change of control date plus the maximum cash bonus payable to him or her. If the Executive applies for or accepts employment with the Company within five years of his or her termination of
employment, the Executive is required to repay to the Company the entire amount of the salary continuance benefit.

Under the welfare
continuance benefit, the Executive and his or her dependents will continue to be covered, for a one-year period following the Executives termination of employment, under all welfare plans in which the Executive and his or her dependents were
participating prior to the date of termination. Welfare plans include any health or dental plans, disability plans, survivor income plans or life insurance plans maintained by the Company. The Company will pay all or a portion of the costs of the
benefit on the same basis as is applicable to active employees. The welfare continuance benefit will cease if the Executive obtains coverage under one or more welfare plans of a subsequent employer and that provide equal or greater benefits to the
Executive and his or her dependents.

The outplacement services provided for under the Continuity Agreements include job search and
interview skill services. The services will be provided by a regionally recognized outplacement organization selected by the Executive with approval of the Company. The services are available for up to one year after the Executives termination
of employment.

In order for the Executive to be entitled to receive benefits in the case of voluntary termination of employment, he or she must
voluntarily terminate employment within 90 days after one of the following events: (a) a decrease in his or her aggregate base salary and incentive bonus opportunity or a significant reduction in the amount of additional benefits or perquisites
provided to him or her as of the date of the change of control, (b) a decrease in his or her authority, duties or responsibilities as determined as of the date of the change of control, or (c) the assignment of duties to him or her that
are inconsistent with his or her duties and responsibilities as of the date of change of control. Benefits will not be payable if the action is isolated, insubstantial or inadvertent and not taken in bad faith, and remedied by the Company within 15
days after receipt of notice thereof given by the Executive.

A change of control of the Company will be deemed to occur if (i) any person or group
becomes a beneficial owner of 20% or more of the combined voting power of the Companys outstanding securities that may be cast for election of directors, other than as a result of an issuance of securities initiated by the Company or open
market purchases approved by the Board, so long as the majority of the Board approving the purchases is also the majority at the time the purchases are made, or (ii) if as a direct or indirect result of, or in connection with, a cash tender or
exchange offer, merger or other business combination, sale of assets, or contested election, the directors constituting the Board before any such transactions cease to constitute a majority of the Board or its successors board within two years
of the last such transactions.

##### Table of Contents

In return for payment of benefits under the Continuity Agreements, each Executive agrees to execute a
written release, in such form as provided by the Company, of any and all claims the Executive may have against the Company.

Other Benefit Plans

Executives participate in the Companys benefit plans on the same terms as other employees. These plans include medical, dental, life,
and disability insurance. The Company provides life insurance coverage equal to three times the employees salary for all eligible employees. A guaranteed issue cap on this coverage of $500,000 is dictated by the plan. Coverage in excess of
$50,000 is subject to taxation based on Internal Revenue Service guidelines.

Perquisites

The Company provides perquisites to certain executive officers, such as an automobile allowance; however, such amounts are not included in the Summary
Compensation Table below because such amounts are less than $10,000.

The following table reflects total compensation paid or earned during 2007 and 2006 for the named executive officers.

Change in Control Benefits

As discussed above, the Company maintains Employment Continuity Agreements for its executive officers that provide benefits to such executive officers in the event of a change in control. Based upon a hypothetical
change in control date of December 31, 2007, the following table identifies the estimated total change in control termination benefits for the named executive officers during the periods following the change in control.

The calculations are based on an assumption that each named executive officers employment
would be terminated on December 31, 2007. Such an assumption would require payment of salary, bonus, and coverage under the Companys healthcare and other insurance benefits through December 31, 2008. The salary and bonus amounts are
based on 2007 amounts. The value of healthcare and other insurance benefits is based upon the type of coverage provided to the executive officer as of December 31, 2007, and valued at the premiums in effect at that time.

REPORT
OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Audit Committees Report to Shareholders, which follows, was approved and adopted by the Committee on
March 17, 2008 and ratified by the Board of Directors on March 27, 2008. The voting members of the Committee are all independent directors, in the business judgment of the Board, as that term is defined in the applicable NASDAQ listing
standards. The Board and the Committee have not currently designated a member of the committee an audit committee financial expert. The Board, however, believes that each of the current members of the Committee have the ability to
understand financial statements and generally accepted accounting principles, the ability to assess the general application of such principles in connection with the accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves, an understanding of internal
controls and procedures for financial reporting and an understanding of audit committee functions, and are therefore financially literate.

The Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements with management, discussed with Yount, Hyde & Barbour, P.C., the Companys independent auditors, the matters required to be discussed by Statement of
Accounting Standards No. 61, as amended, received communications from the auditors as to their independence, and discussed independence with the auditors. In discharging their oversight responsibility as to the audit process, the Board of
Directors and the Committee obtained written disclosures and the letter from Yount, Hyde & Barbour, P.C. required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, Independence Discussions with Audit Committee, as may be
modified or supplemented, and have discussed with Yount, Hyde & Barbour, P.C. its independence.

The Committee also discussed with
the Companys internal and independent auditors the overall scope and plans for their respective audits. The Committee met with the internal and independent auditors, with and without management present, to discuss the results of their
examinations, the evaluations of the Companys internal controls, and the overall quality of the Companys financial reporting.

Based on the discussions referred to above, the Committee recommended to the Board of Directors, and the Board of Directors ratified, that the audited financial statements be included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2007, for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
