separately compensated for such service.

corporate customers and to originate residential and commercial mortgage loans, commercial loans and consumer loans, primarily in the Greater Baltimore Metropolitan area. The Bank is subject to competition from other financial and mortgage
institutions in attracting and retaining deposits and in making loans. The Bank is subject to the regulations of certain agencies of the federal and state governments and undergoes periodic examination by those agencies. The Bank has two active
operating subsidiaries, Prime Business Leasing and Patapsco Financial Services. The primary business of Prime Business Leasing is the servicing of commercial leases. The primary business of Patapsco Financial Services is the sale of consumer
investments.

Market Area

The
Banks market area for gathering deposits consists of the Hampden area of Baltimore City and eastern and northeastern Baltimore County, Maryland, while the Bank makes loans to customers in much of the Mid-Atlantic area with a strong emphasis on
the Baltimore metropolitan area. The economy of the Banks market area has historically been based on industries such as steel, shipyards and automobile assembly. The economy in the Banks market area continues to be dependent, to some
extent, on a small number of major industrial employers. A significant portion of eastern Baltimore County has been designated as an Enterprise Zone. As a result, employers relocating to this area are entitled to significant tax and
other economic incentives. Based on 2004 United States Census data, the per capita personal income for Baltimore County ($42,852) is greater than that of Maryland as a whole ($39,631) and the United States ($33,050). The per capita personal income
for Baltimore City ($29,153) is lower than both the Maryland and United States averages.

Lending Activities

General. The Companys gross loan portfolio totaled $202.0 million at June 30, 2010, representing
75% of total assets at that date. At June 30, 2010, $65.1 million, or 32%, of the Companys gross loan portfolio, consisted of residential mortgage loans. Other loans secured by real estate include construction and commercial real estate
loans, which amounted to $64.2 million, or 32%, of the Companys gross loan portfolio at June 30, 2010. In addition, the Company originates consumer and other loans, including home equity loans, home improvement loans and loans secured by
deposits. At June 30, 2010, consumer and other loans totaled $15.7 million, or 8%, of the Companys gross loan portfolio. The Companys commercial loan portfolio, which consists of small business loans and commercial leases totaled
$57.1 million, or 28%, of the Companys gross loan portfolio.

Originations, Purchases and Sales of
Loans. The Company generally has authority to originate and purchase loans throughout the United States. Consistent with its emphasis on being a community-oriented financial institution, the Company concentrates its lending activities
in its Maryland market area with limited loan originations in Delaware, Pennsylvania and Northern Virginia and on rare occasions, outside these markets.

The Companys loan originations are derived from a number of sources, including loan brokers, advertising and referrals by
depositors and borrowers. The Companys solicitation programs consist of advertisements in local media, in addition to participation in various community organizations and events. All of the Companys loan personnel are salaried; however,
one originator receives commissions on loans approved by officers of the Bank. With the exception of applications for home improvement loans, which loans may be originated on an indirect basis through a limited number of approved home improvement
contractors, loan applications are accepted at the Companys offices. In addition, the Companys salaried loan originators may travel to meet prospective borrowers and take applications. In all cases, the Company has final approval of the
application.

In recent years, the Company has purchased whole loans and loan participation interests. During the year ended
June 30, 2010, the Company purchased $5.0 million in participation interests and no consumer home improvement loans. In the future, management will continue to consider purchases of whole loans or participation interests in commercial business,
residential and commercial real estate loans and consumer home improvement loans.

Loan Underwriting Policies. The Companys lending
activities are subject to the Companys non-discriminatory underwriting standards and to loan origination procedures prescribed by the Companys Board of Directors and management. Detailed loan applications are obtained to determine the
borrowers ability to repay, and the more significant items on these applications are verified through the use of credit reports, financial statements and confirmations. Certain officers and committees have been granted authority by the Board
of Directors to approve residential and commercial real estate, commercial business loans and equipment leases in varying amounts depending upon whether the loan is secured or unsecured and, with respect to secured loans, whether the collateral is
liquid or illiquid. Individual officers and certain committees of the Company have been granted authority by the Board of Directors to approve consumer loans up to varying specified dollar amounts, depending upon the type of loan.

Applications for single-family real estate loans are typically underwritten and closed in accordance with the standards of Federal Home
Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC) and Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA). Generally, upon receipt of a loan application from a prospective borrower, a credit report and verifications are ordered to confirm specific
information relating to the loan applicants employment, income and credit standing. If a proposed loan is to be secured by a mortgage on real estate, an appraisal of the real estate is undertaken, pursuant to the Companys Appraisal
Policy, by an appraiser approved by the Company and licensed by the State of Maryland. In the case of single-family residential mortgage loans, except when the Company becomes aware of a particular risk of environmental contamination, the Company
generally does not obtain a formal environmental report on the real estate at the time a loan is made. A formal environmental report may be required in connection with nonresidential real estate loans.

It is the Companys policy to record a lien on the real estate securing a loan and to obtain title insurance, which insures that the
property is free of prior encumbrances and other possible title defects. Borrowers must also obtain hazard insurance policies prior to closing, and when the property is in a flood plain as designated by the Department of Housing and Urban
Development, pay flood insurance policy premiums.

With respect to single-family residential mortgage loans, the Company makes
a loan commitment of between 30 and 60 days for each loan approved. If the borrower desires a longer commitment, the commitment may be extended for good cause and upon written approval. Typically, a $500 commitment fee is charged in connection with
the issuance of a commitment letter; however, extension fees are usually charged. The interest rate is guaranteed for the commitment term.

It is the policy of the Company that appraisals be obtained in connection with all loans for the purchase of real estate or to refinance
real estate loans where the existing mortgage is held by a party other than the Company. It is the Companys policy that all appraisals be performed by appraisers approved by the Companys Board of Directors and licensed by the State of
Maryland, for properties located in the state of Maryland.

Under applicable law, with certain limited exceptions, loans and
extensions of credit by a commercial bank to a person, including commitments, at one time shall not exceed 15% of the Banks unimpaired capital and surplus. Under these limits, the Companys loans to one borrower were limited to $3.7
million at June 30, 2010. At that date, the Company had no lending relationships in excess of the loans-to-one-borrower limit. At June 30, 2010, the Companys largest lending relationship was represented by multiple loans totaling
$3.3 million secured by commercial real estate and business assets, which were current and performing in accordance with their terms at June 30, 2010.

Interest rates charged by the Company on loans are affected principally by competitive factors, the demand for such loans and the supply
of funds available for lending purposes. These factors are, in turn, affected by general economic conditions, monetary policies of the federal government, including the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the Federal Reserve
Board), legislative tax policies and government budgetary matters.

Residential Real Estate Lending. The
Company historically has been an originator of residential real estate loans in its market area. Residential real estate loans consist of both single-family and multi-family residential real estate loans. At June 30, 2010, residential mortgage
loans totaled $65.1 million, or 32%, of the Companys gross loan portfolio. Of such loans, $33.8 million were secured by nonowner-occupied investment properties.

##### Table of Contents

The Companys multi-family residential loan portfolio consists primarily of loans
secured by small apartment buildings. Such loans generally range in size from $100,000 to $2.0 million. At June 30, 2010, the Company had $5.7 million of multi-family residential real estate loans, which amounted to 3% of the Companys
gross loan portfolio at such date. Multi-family real estate loans either are originated on an adjustable-rate basis with terms of up to 25 years or are amortized over a maximum of 25 years with a three or five-year note maturity, and are
underwritten with loan-to-value ratios of up to 80% of the lesser of the appraised value or the purchase price of the property.

Multi-family residential real estate lending entails additional risks as compared with single-family residential property lending.
Multi-family residential real estate loans typically involve larger loan balances to single borrowers or groups of related borrowers. The payment experience on such loans typically is dependent on the successful operation of the real estate project.
These risks can be significantly impacted by supply and demand conditions in the market for residential space, and, as such, may be subject to a greater extent to adverse conditions in the economy in general. To minimize these risks, the Company
generally limits itself to its market area or to borrowers with which it has prior experience or who are otherwise known to the Company. It has been the Companys policy to obtain annual financial statements of the business of the borrower or
the project for which multi-family residential real estate loans are made. The Company seeks to expand multi-family residential real estate lending.

Construction Lending.The Bank also offers residential and commercial construction loans and land acquisition and
development loans. Residential construction loans are offered to individuals who are having their primary or secondary residence built, as well as to local builders to construct single-family dwellings. Residential construction advances are made on
a stage of completion basis. Generally, loans to owner/occupants for the construction of residential properties are originated in conjunction with the permanent mortgage on the property. The term of the construction loans is normally from 6 to 18
months and has a variable interest rate, which is normally up to 2% above the prime interest rate. Upon completion of construction, the permanent loan rate will be set at the interest rate offered by the Bank on that loan product not sooner than 60
days prior to completion. Interest rates on residential loans to builders are set at the prime interest rate plus a margin of 0.5% to 2.0% as may be adjusted from time to time. Interest rates on commercial construction loans and land acquisition and
development loans are based on the prime rate plus a negotiated margin of between 0.5% and 2.0% and adjust from time to time, with construction terms generally not exceeding 18 months. Advances are made on a percentage of completion basis. At
June 30, 2010, $17.2 million, or 9%, of the Companys loan portfolio consisted of construction loans.

Prior to
making a commitment to fund a loan, the Bank requires an appraisal of the property by appraisers approved by the Board of Directors and may require a study of the feasibility of the proposed project. The Bank also reviews and inspects each project
at the commencement of construction and prior to payment of draw requests during the term of the construction loan. Dependent upon market forces, the Bank generally charges a loan fee between 1% and 2%.

Construction financing generally is considered to involve a higher degree of risk of loss than long-term financing on improved, occupied
real estate. Risk of loss on a construction loan is dependent largely upon the accuracy of the initial estimate of the propertys value at completion of construction or development and the estimated cost (including interest) of construction.
During the construction phase, a number of factors could result in delays and cost overruns. If the estimate of construction costs proves to be inaccurate and the borrower is unable to meet the Banks requirements of putting up additional funds
to cover extra costs or change orders, then the Bank will demand that the loan be paid off and, if necessary, institute foreclosure proceedings, or refinance the loan. If the estimate of value proves to be inaccurate, the Bank may be confronted, at
or prior to the maturity of the loan, with collateral having a value that is insufficient to assure full repayment. The Bank has sought to minimize this risk by limiting construction lending to qualified borrowers (i.e., borrowers who satisfy
all credit requirements and whose loans satisfy all other underwriting standards which would apply to the Banks permanent mortgage loan financing for the subject property) in the Banks market area. On loans to builders, the Bank works
only with selected builders with whom it has experience and carefully monitors the creditworthiness of the builders.

Commercial Real Estate Lending.The Companys commercial real estate loan portfolio consists of loans to finance the
acquisition of small office buildings, shopping centers and commercial and industrial buildings. Such loans generally range in size from $100,000 to $2.0 million. At June 30, 2010, the Company had $46.9 million of commercial real estate loans,
which amounted to 23% of the Companys gross loan portfolio at such date. Commercial

##### Table of Contents

real estate loans are typically originated on an adjustable-rate basis with terms of up to 25 years or are amortized over a maximum of 25 years with a maturity generally of three to ten years,
and are underwritten with loan-to-value ratios of up to 80% of the lesser of the appraised value or the purchase price of the property. Because of the inherently greater risk involved in this type of lending, the Company generally limits its
commercial real estate lending to borrowers within its market area or with which it has had prior experience. The Company seeks to expand commercial real estate lending.

Commercial real estate lending entails additional risks as compared with single-family residential property lending. Commercial real
estate loans typically involve larger loan balances to single borrowers or groups of related borrowers. The payment experience on such loans typically is dependent on the successful operation of the real estate project, retail establishment or
business. These risks can be significantly impacted by supply and demand conditions in the market for office, retail and residential space, and, as such, may be subject to a greater extent to adverse conditions in the economy generally. To minimize
these risks, the Company generally limits itself to its market area or to borrowers with which it has prior experience or who are otherwise known to the Company. It has been the Companys policy to obtain annual financial statements of the
business of the borrower or the project for which commercial real estate loans are made. In addition, in the case of commercial mortgage loans made to a partnership or a corporation, the Company seeks, whenever possible, to obtain personal
guarantees and annual financial statements of the principals of the partnership or corporation.

Consumer
Lending. The consumer loans currently in the Companys loan portfolio consist of home improvement loans, home equity loans, loans secured by savings deposits and overdraft protection for checking accounts and other consumer
loans. At June 30, 2010, consumer and other loans totaled $15.7 million, or 8%, of the Companys gross loan portfolio.

In July 1995, the Company instituted a home improvement loan program. Such loans are made to finance a variety of other home improvement
projects, such as replacement windows, siding and room additions. The Companys policy is to originate home improvement loans throughout Maryland, Virginia, Delaware, New Jersey and Southern Pennsylvania. While the Company originates some home
improvement loans on a direct basis, most of the home improvement loans in the Companys portfolio are originated on an indirect basis through the Companys relationships with selected independent contractors. The Companys
underwriting policies apply to all home improvement loans whether or not directly originated by the Company. Home improvement loans generally have terms ranging from three to 10 years and have fixed interest rates. Home improvement loans are made on
both secured and unsecured basis. However, the majority of home improvement loans with a principal loan amount over $10,000 or which have a term longer than 84 months are made on a secured basis with loan-to-value ratios up to 80% or 90%, depending
on the type of project financed. At June 30, 2010, home improvement loans amounted to $9.6 million, or 5%, of the Companys loan portfolio, with $746,000 of such loans being secured by real estate.

Consumer lending affords the Company the opportunity to earn yields higher than those obtainable with other types of lending. However,
consumer loans entail greater risk than do other loans, particularly in the case of loans that are unsecured or secured by rapidly depreciable assets. Repossessed collateral for a defaulted consumer loan may not provide an adequate source of
repayment of the outstanding loan balance as a result of the greater likelihood of damage, loss or depreciation. The remaining deficiency often does not warrant further substantial collection efforts against the borrower. In addition, consumer loan
collections are dependent on the borrowers continuing financial stability, and thus are more likely to be adversely affected by events such as job loss, divorce, illness or personal bankruptcy.

Commercial Lending.The Banks commercial loans consist of commercial business loans and the financing of lease
transactions, which may not be secured by real estate.

At June 30, 2010, the Companys commercial loans, excluding
leases, totaled $51.3 million, or 25%, of the Companys loan portfolio. This commercial lending program employs many of the alternative financing and guarantee programs available through the U.S. Small Business Administration and other state
and local economic development agencies.

The Bank originates commercial business loans to small and medium-sized businesses
in its market area. The Banks commercial business loans may be structured as term loans, lines of credit, or mortgages. The Banks

commercial borrowers are generally small businesses engaged in manufacturing, distribution or retailing, or professionals in healthcare, accounting and law. Commercial business loans are
generally made to finance the purchase of inventory, new or used commercial business assets or for short-term working capital, or the purchase of real estate to be occupied by the operating company. Such loans generally are secured by business
assets and, when applicable, cross-collateralized by a real estate lien, although commercial business loans are sometimes granted on an unsecured basis. Such loans are generally made for terms of seven years or less, depending on the purpose of the
loan and the collateral. Interest rates on commercial business loans and lines of credit are either fixed for the term of the loan or adjusted periodically. Generally, commercial business loans are made in amounts ranging between $10,000 and $2.0
million.

The Bank underwrites its commercial business loans on the basis of the borrowers cash flow and ability to
service the debt from earnings and the Bank seeks to structure such loans to have more than one source of repayment. The borrower is required to provide the Bank with sufficient information to allow the Bank to make its lending determination. In
most instances, this information consists of at least two years of financial statements, a statement of projected cash flows, current financial information on any guarantor and any additional information on the collateral. For loans with maturities
exceeding one year, the Bank requires that borrowers and guarantors provide updated financial information at least annually throughout the term of the loan.

Commercial business term loans are generally made to finance the purchase of assets and have maturities of five years or less. Commercial
business lines of credit are typically made for the purpose of providing working capital and are usually approved with a term of 12 months and are reviewed at that time to determine if extension is warranted. The Bank also offers standby letters of
credit for its commercial borrowers. The terms of standby letters of credit generally do not exceed one year but may contain a renewal option.

Commercial business loans are often larger and may involve greater risk than other types of lending. Because payments on such loans are
often dependent on successful operation of the business involved, repayment of such loans may be subject to a greater extent to adverse conditions in the economy. The Bank seeks to minimize these risks through its underwriting guidelines, which
require that the loan be supported by adequate cash flow of the borrower, profitability of the business, collateral and personal guarantees of the individuals in the business. In addition, the Bank generally limits this type of lending to its market
area and to borrowers with which it has prior experience or who are otherwise well known to the Bank.

Prior to October 2008,
the Company offered loans to finance lease transactions, secured by the lease and the underlying equipment, to businesses of various size through its subsidiary, Prime Business Leasing. In extending the financing in a commercial lease transaction,
the Company reviewed the borrowers financial statements, credit reports, tax returns and other documentation. Generally, commercial lease financing were made in amounts ranging between $3,000 and $120,000 with terms of up to five years and
carry fixed interest rates. Note that in October 2008, management made a strategic decision to cease origination of leases. At June 30, 2010, the remaining portfolio of commercial lease finance transaction loans totaled $5.8 million, or 3%, of
the Companys loan portfolio.

Loan Fees and Servicing. The Company receives fees in
connection with late payments and for miscellaneous services related to its loans. The Company also charges fees in connection with loan originations typically up to two points (one point being equal to 1% of the loan amount) on real estate loan
originations. The Company generally does not service loans for others. The Company has sold participating interests on residential, commercial real estate and commercial business loans to other local financial institutions. At June 30, 2010,
the Company was servicing these participation interests for others totaling approximately $18.7 million.

Nonperforming Loans and Other Problem Assets. It is managements policy to continually monitor its loan
portfolio to anticipate and address potential and actual delinquencies. When a borrower fails to make a payment on a loan, the Company takes immediate steps to have the delinquency cured and the loan restored to current status. Loans, which are
delinquent between ten and 15 days, depending on the type of loan, typically incur a late fee of 5% of principal and interest due. As a matter of policy, the Company will contact the borrower after the date the late payment is due. If payment is not
promptly received, the borrower is contacted again, and efforts are made to formulate an affirmative plan to cure the delinquency. Generally, after any loan is delinquent 90 days or more, formal legal proceedings are commenced to collect amounts
owed.

##### Table of Contents

Loans generally are placed on nonaccrual status if the loan becomes past due more than 90
days, except in instances where in managements judgment there is no doubt as to full collectibility of principal and interest. At June 30, 2010, all loans past due more than 90 days were on nonaccrual. Consumer loans are generally charged
off after they become more than 90 days past due. All other loans are charged off when management concludes that they are uncollectible. See Notes 1 and 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Real estate acquired by the Company as a result of foreclosure is classified as real estate acquired through foreclosure until such time
as it is sold. When such property is acquired, it is initially recorded at the estimated fair value less costs to sell, establishing a new cost basis. Subsequent to acquisition, the property is carried at the lower of cost or fair value less
estimated costs to sell. Fair value is defined as the amount in cash or cash-equivalent value or other consideration that a real estate parcel would yield in a current sale between a willing buyer and a willing seller, as measured by market
transactions. If a market does not exist, fair value of the item is estimated based on selling prices of similar items in active markets or, if there are no active markets for similar items, by discounting a forecast of expected cash flows at a rate
commensurate with the risk involved. Fair value is generally determined through an appraisal at the time of foreclosure. Any required write-down of the loan to its fair value upon foreclosure is charged against the allowance for loan losses, with
subsequent write-downs reflected in other expense. See Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Investment Activities

General. The Company makes investments in order to maintain the levels of liquid assets preferred by
regulatory authorities and manage cash flow, diversify its assets, obtain yield and to satisfy certain requirements for favorable tax treatment. The investment activities of the Company consist primarily of investments in mortgage-backed securities
and other investment securities. Typical investments include federally sponsored agency mortgage pass-through, federally sponsored agency debt securities, U.S. treasury obligations and investment grade corporate securities. Investment and aggregate
investment limitations and credit quality parameters of each class of investment are prescribed in the Companys investment policy. The Company performs analyses on securities prior to purchase and on an ongoing basis to determine the impact on
earnings and market value under various interest rate and prepayment conditions. Senior management and the Companys Asset/Liability Management Committee have limited authority to sell investment securities and purchase comparable investment
securities with similar characteristics. The Board of Directors reviews all securities transactions on a monthly basis.

Under
applicable accounting rules, investment securities classified as held-to-maturity are recorded at amortized cost and those classified as available for sale are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and
reported as a separate component of stockholders equity. At June 30, 2010, the Companys entire portfolio of investment securities was classified as available for sale and had an aggregate carrying value of $25.5 million and an
unrealized net gain after tax of $331,000. Management of the Company currently does not anticipate that the presence of unrealized losses in the Companys portfolio of investment securities and mortgage-backed securities is likely to have a
material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

Deposit Activity and Other Sources
of Funds

General. Deposits are the primary source of the Companys funds for lending, investment
activities and general operational purposes. In addition to deposits, the Company derives funds from loan principal and interest repayments, maturities of investment securities and mortgage-backed securities and interest payments thereon. Although
loan repayments are a relatively stable source of funds, deposit inflows and outflows are significantly influenced by general interest rates and money market conditions. Borrowings may be used on a short-term basis to compensate for reductions in
the availability of funds, or on a long-term basis for general operational purposes. The Bank may borrow from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta and Pacific Coast Bankers Bank.

Deposits. The Company attracts deposits principally from within its market area by offering a variety of deposit
instruments, including checking accounts, Christmas Club accounts, money market accounts, statement and passbook savings accounts, Individual Retirement Accounts, and certificates of deposit which range in maturity from seven days to 66 months.
Deposit terms vary according to the minimum balance required, the length of time the funds

##### Table of Contents

must remain on deposit, and the interest rate. Maturities, terms, service fees and withdrawal penalties for its deposit accounts are established by the Company on a periodic basis. The Company
reviews its deposit mix and pricing on a weekly basis. In determining the characteristics of its deposit accounts, the Company considers the rates offered by competing institutions, lending and liquidity requirements, growth goals and federal
regulations. Management believes it prices its deposits comparably to rates offered by its competitors.

The Company attempts
to compete for deposits with other institutions in its market area by offering competitively priced deposit instruments that are tailored to the needs of its customers. Additionally, the Company seeks to meet customers needs by providing
convenient customer service to the community, efficient staff and convenient hours of service. Substantially all of the Companys depositors are Maryland residents. To provide additional convenience, the Company participates in the STAR
Automatic Teller Machine network at locations throughout the United States, through which customers can gain access to their accounts at any time.

Borrowings. While deposits historically have been the primary source of funds for the Companys lending, investments
and general operating activities, the Bank utilizes advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta to supplement its supply of lendable funds and to meet deposit withdrawal requirements. The Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta functions as a
central reserve bank providing credit for member financial institutions. As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank System, the Bank is required to own stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta and is authorized to apply for advances. Advances
are pursuant to several different programs, each of which has its own interest rate and range of maturities. The Bank has a Blanket Agreement for advances with the Federal Home Loan Bank under which the Bank may borrow up to 25% of assets subject to
normal collateral and underwriting requirements. Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta are secured by the Banks stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta and other eligible assets. At June 30, 2010, the Company had
outstanding Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta advances of $17.1 million with an average rate of 4.20%.

Troubled Asset Relief Program
Capital Purchase Program

On December 19, 2008, as part of the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP)
Capital Purchase Program, the Company sold to the U.S. Department of the Treasury (Treasury) 6,000 shares of its Series A cumulative perpetual preferred stock and a warrant for the purchase of 300 shares of its Series B cumulative
perpetual preferred stock, for an aggregate purchase price of $6.0 million in cash. Contemporaneously with that transaction, Treasury exercised its warrant and received 300 shares of Series B cumulative perpetual preferred stock. The
TARP Capital Purchase Program is a voluntary program for healthy U.S. financial institutions designed to encourage these institutions to build capital to increase the flow of financing to U.S. businesses and consumers and to support the weakened
U.S. economy. Participation in this program provided an additional capital for the Company and the Bank.

Subsidiary Activities

The Bank has three subsidiaries, PFSL Holding Corp. (PFSL), which it formed to hold certain real estate owned
and which is currently inactive, Prime Business Leasing that was formed in October 1998 and is discussed under commercial lending and Patapsco Financial Services, Inc., which was formed in order to sell alternative investment products to the
Companys customers.

Competition

The Company faces strong competition both in originating loans and in attracting deposits. The Company competes for loans principally on
the basis of interest rates, the types of loans it originates, the deposit products it offers and the quality of services it provides to borrowers. The Company also competes by offering products that are tailored to the local community. Its
competition in originating loans comes primarily from other commercial banks, savings institutions and mortgage bankers, credit unions and finance companies. The regulatory environment in which the Company and the Bank operate is subject to change
and such changes may adversely affect operating results.

Management considers its market area for gathering deposits to be
eastern Baltimore County, Baltimore City, and Harford County in Maryland. The Company originates loans throughout much of the Mid-Atlantic area. The Company attracts its deposits through its offices in Dundalk, Carney, Hampden and Glen Arm which are
primarily from

the local community. Consequently, competition for deposits is principally from other commercial banks, savings institutions, credit unions, mutual funds and brokers in the local community. The
Company competes for deposits and loans by offering what it believes to be a variety of deposit products at competitive rates, convenient business hours, a commitment to outstanding customer service and a well-trained staff.

Employees

As of
June 30, 2010, the Company had 61 full-time and 12 part-time employees, none of who were represented by a collective bargaining agreement. Management considers the Companys relationships with its employees to be good.

Depository Institution Regulation

General. The Bank is a Maryland commercial bank and its deposit accounts are insured by the Deposit Insurance Fund
(DIF) administered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). The Bank also is a member of the Federal Reserve System. The Bank is subject to supervision, examination and regulation by the State of Maryland
Commissioner of Financial Regulation (Commissioner), the Federal Reserve Board, Maryland and federal statutory and regulatory provisions governing such matters as capital standards, mergers and establishment of branch offices, and it is
subject to the FDICs authority to conduct special examinations. The Bank is required to file reports with the Commissioner and the Federal Reserve Board concerning its activities and financial condition and is required to obtain regulatory
approvals prior to entering into certain transactions, including mergers with, or acquisitions of, other depository institutions.

The system of regulation and supervision applicable to the Bank establishes a comprehensive framework for the operations of the Bank and
is intended primarily for the protection of the FDIC and the depositors of the Bank. Changes in the regulatory framework could have a material effect on the Bank and its respective operations that in turn, could have a material adverse effect on the
Company.

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the Dodd-Frank Act) transferred
responsibility for the implementation of financial consumer protection laws to a new independent agency in the Federal Reserve Board. The new agency, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, will issue rules and regulations governing consumer
financial protection. However, depository institutions of less than $10 billion in assets, such as the Bank, will continue to be examined for compliance with consumer protection laws by the prudential regulations which will also have enforcement
authority.

Business Activities.The Commissioner regulates the Banks internal organization as well as its
deposit, lending and investment activities. The basic authority for the Banks activities is specified by Maryland law. Additionally, Maryland law contains a parity statute by which Maryland commercial banks may, with the approval of the
Commissioner, engage in any additional activity, service or practice permitted for national banks.

The Federal Reserve and
FDIC also regulate many of the areas regulated by the Commissioner and federal law may limit some of the authority provided to the Bank by Maryland law. Approval of the Commissioner and the Federal Reserve is required for, among other things,
business combinations and the establishment of branch offices.

Capital Requirements. The Bank is subject to
Federal Reserve Board capital requirements, as well as statutory capital requirements imposed under Maryland law. Federal Reserve Board regulations establish two capital standards for state-chartered banks that are members of the Federal Reserve
System (state member banks): a leverage requirement and a risk-based capital requirement. In addition, the Federal Reserve may, on a case-by-case basis, establish individual minimum capital requirements for a bank that vary from the
requirements that would otherwise apply under Federal Reserve Board regulations. A bank that fails to satisfy the capital requirements established under the Federal Reserve Boards regulations will be subject to such administrative action or
sanctions as the Federal Reserve Board deems appropriate.

The leverage ratio adopted by the Federal Reserve Board requires a
minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to adjusted total assets of 3% for banks rated composite 1 under the CAMELS examination rating system for banks.

##### Table of Contents

Banks not rated composite 1 under the CAMELS rating system for banks are required to maintain a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to adjusted total assets of at least 4%. Additional capital may be
necessary for institutions with supervisory, financial, operational or managerial weaknesses, as well as institutions experiencing significant growth. For purposes of the Federal Reserve Boards leverage requirement, Tier 1 capital consists
primarily of common stockholders equity, certain perpetual preferred stock (which must be noncumulative with respect to banks), and minority interests in the equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries; less most intangible assets, except for
specified servicing assets and purchased credit card receivables and other specified deductions.

The risk-based capital
requirements established by the Federal Reserve Boards regulations require state member banks to maintain total capital equal to at least 8% of total risk-weighted assets. For purposes of the risk-based capital requirement,
total capital means Tier 1 capital (as described above) plus Tier 2 capital (as described below), provided that the amount of Tier 2 capital may not exceed the amount of Tier 1 capital, less certain assets. Tier 2 capital
elements include, subject to certain limitations, the allowance for losses on loans and leases, perpetual preferred stock that does not qualify for Tier 1 and long-term preferred stock with an original maturity of at least 20 years from issuance,
hybrid capital instruments, including perpetual debt and mandatory convertible securities, and subordinated debt and intermediate-term preferred stock and up to 45% of unrealized gains on equity securities. Total risk-weighted assets are determined
under the Federal Reserve Boards regulations, which generally establish four risk categories, with general risk weights of 0%, 20%, 50% and 100%, based on the risk believed inherent to the type of asset involved.

In addition, the Bank is subject to the statutory capital requirements imposed by the State of Maryland. Under Maryland statutory law, if
the surplus of a Maryland commercial bank at any time is less than 100% of its capital stock, then, until the surplus is 100% of the capital stock, the commercial bank: (i) must transfer to its surplus annually at least 10% of its net earnings;
and (ii) may not declare or pay any cash dividends that exceed 90% of its net earnings.

The table below provides
information with respect to the Banks compliance with its regulatory capital requirements at the dates indicated.

Prompt Corrective Regulatory Action. Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991
(FDICIA), the federal banking regulators are required to take prompt corrective action if an insured depository institution fails to satisfy certain minimum capital requirements. All institutions, regardless of their capital levels, are
restricted from making any capital distribution or paying any management fees if the institution would thereafter fail to satisfy the minimum levels for any of its capital requirements. An institution that fails to meet the minimum level for any
relevant capital measure (an undercapitalized institution) may be, among other things, subject to increased monitoring by the appropriate federal banking regulator, required to submit an acceptable capital restoration plan within 45 days
and are subject to asset growth limits. The capital restoration plan must include a guarantee by the institutions

holding company that the institution will comply with the plan until it has been adequately capitalized on average for four consecutive quarters, under which the holding company would be liable
up to the lesser of 5% of the institutions total assets or the amount necessary to bring the institution into capital compliance as of the date it failed to comply with its capital restoration plan. A significantly undercapitalized
institution, as well as any undercapitalized institution that did not submit an acceptable capital restoration plan, may be subject to regulatory demands for recapitalization, broader application of restrictions on transactions with affiliates,
limitations on interest rates paid on deposits, asset growth and other activities, possible replacement of directors and officers, and restrictions on capital distributions by any bank holding company controlling the institution. Any company
controlling the institution could also be required to divest the institution or the institution could be required to divest subsidiaries. In their discretion, the federal banking regulators may also impose the foregoing sanctions on an
undercapitalized institution if the regulators determine that such actions are necessary to carry out the purposes of the prompt corrective action provisions. If an institutions ratio of tangible capital to total assets falls below a
critical capital level, the institution will be subject to conservatorship or receivership within 90 days unless periodic determinations are made that forbearance from such action would better protect the deposit insurance fund. Unless
appropriate findings and certifications are made by the appropriate federal bank regulatory agencies, a critically undercapitalized institution must be placed in receivership if it remains critically undercapitalized on average during the calendar
quarter beginning 270 days after the date it became critically undercapitalized.

For purposes of these restrictions, an
undercapitalized institution is a depository institution that has (i) a total risk-based capital ratio less than 8.0%; or (ii) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of less than 4.0%; or (iii) a leverage ratio of less than
4.0% (or less than 3.0% if the institution has a composite 1 CAMELS rating). A significantly undercapitalized institution is defined as a depository institution that has: (i) a total risk-based capital ratio of less than 6.0%; or
(ii) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of less than 3.0%; or (iii) a leverage ratio of less than 3.0%. A critically undercapitalized institution is defined as a depository institution that has a ratio of tangible
equity to total assets of less than 2.0%. The appropriate federal banking agency may reclassify a well capitalized depository institution as adequately capitalized and may require an adequately capitalized or undercapitalized institution to
comply with the supervisory actions applicable to institutions in the next lower capital category (but may not reclassify a significantly undercapitalized institution as critically under-capitalized) if it determines, after notice and an opportunity
for a hearing, that the institution is in an unsafe or unsound condition or that the institution has received and not corrected a less-than-satisfactory rating for any examination rating category. At June 30, 2010, the Bank was classified as
well capitalized under Federal Reserve regulations.

Safety and Soundness Guidelines. Under
FDICIA, as amended by the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994, each federal banking agency was required to establish safety and soundness standards for institutions under its authority. The federal banking agencies,
including the Federal Reserve Board, have released Interagency Guidelines Establishing Standards for Safety and Soundness. The guidelines require depository institutions to maintain internal controls and information systems and internal audit
systems that are appropriate for the size, nature and scope of the institutions business, establish certain basic standards for loan documentation, credit underwriting, asset quality, capital adequacy, earnings, interest rate risk exposure and
asset growth, information security and further provide that depository institutions should maintain safeguards to prevent the payment of compensation, fees and benefits that are excessive or that could lead to material financial loss. If the
appropriate federal banking agency determines that a depository institution is not in compliance with the safety and soundness guidelines, it may require the institution to submit an acceptable plan to achieve compliance with the guidelines. Failure
to submit or implement a compliance plan may subject the institution to regulatory sanctions.

Federal Home Loan
Bank System. The Federal Home Loan Bank System consists of 12 district Federal Home Loan Banks. The Federal Home Loan Banks provide a central credit facility primarily for member institutions. As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of
Atlanta, the Bank is required to acquire and hold specified amounts of capital stock in that Federal Home Loan Bank. The Bank was in compliance with this requirement with an investment in Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta stock at June 30, 2010
of $2.3 million.

Federal Reserve System.Pursuant to regulations of the Federal Reserve Board, a financial
institution must maintain average daily reserves equal to 3% on transaction accounts of between $10.7 million and $55.2 million, plus 10% on the remainder. The first $10.7 million of transaction accounts are exempt. These percentages are subject to
adjustment by the Federal Reserve Board. Because required reserves must be maintained in the form of vault cash or in a noninterest-bearing account at a Federal Reserve Bank, the effect of the reserve requirement is to reduce the amount of the
institutions interest-earning assets. As of June 30, 2010, the Bank met its reserve requirements.

The monetary policies and regulations of the Federal Reserve Board have a significant effect
on the operating results of commercial banks. The Federal Reserve Boards policies affect the levels of bank loans, investments and deposits through its open market operation in United States government securities, its regulation of the
interest rate on borrowings from Federal Reserve Banks and its imposition of nonearning reserve requirements on all depository institutions, such as the Bank, that maintain transaction accounts or non-personal time deposits.

Insurance of Deposit Accounts. The Banks deposits are insured up to applicable limits by the Deposit Insurance Fund
of the FDIC. The Deposit Insurance Fund is the successor to the Bank Insurance Fund and the Savings Association Insurance Fund, which were merged in 2006. Under the FDICs existing risk-based assessment system, insured institutions are assigned
to one of four risk categories based on supervisory evaluations, regulatory capital levels and certain other factors with less risky institutions paying lower assessments. An institutions assessment rate depends upon the category to which it
is assigned, and certain potential adjustments established by FDIC regulations. Effective April 1, 2009, assessment rates range from seven to 77.5 basis points of assessable deposits. The FDIC may adjust the scale uniformly from one quarter to
the next, except that no adjustment can deviate more than three basis points from the base scale without notice and comment. No institution may pay a dividend if in default of the federal deposit insurance assessment.

Due to stress on the Deposit Insurance Fund caused by bank failures, the FDIC imposed on all insured institutions a special emergency
assessment of five basis points of total assets minus Tier 1 capital, as of June 30, 2009 (capped at ten basis points of an institutions deposit assessment base), in order to cover losses to the Deposit Insurance Fund. That special
assessment was collected on September 30, 2009. The FDIC provided for similar assessments during the final two quarters of 2009, if deemed necessary. However, in lieu of further special assessments, the FDIC required insured institutions to
prepay estimated quarterly risk-based assessments for the fourth quarter of 2009 through the fourth quarter of 2012. The estimated assessments, which include an assumed annual assessment base increase of 5%, were recorded as a prepaid expense asset
as of December 30, 2009. As of December 31, 2009, and each quarter thereafter, a charge to earnings will be recorded for each regular assessment with an offsetting credit to the prepaid asset.

Because of the recent difficult economic conditions, deposit insurance per account owner had been raised to $250,000 for all types of
accounts until January 1, 2014. That level was made permanent by the newly enacted Dodd-Frank Act. In addition, the FDIC adopted an optional Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program (TLGP) under which, for a fee, noninterest-bearing
transaction accounts would receive unlimited insurance coverage until June 30, 2010, subsequently extended to December 31, 2010. The Dodd-Frank Act extends the unlimited coverage of noninterest-bearing transaction accounts until
December 31, 2012 without providing an opt out. The TLGP also included a debt component under which certain senior unsecured debt issued by institutions and their holding companies between October 13, 2008 and October 31, 2009 would
be guaranteed by the FDIC through June 30, 2012, or in some cases, December 31, 2012. The Bank opted to participate in the unlimited noninterest-bearing transaction account coverage and the Bank and Company opted not to participate in the
unsecured debt guarantee program.

In addition to the assessment for deposit insurance, institutions are required to make
payments on bonds issued in the late 1980s by the Financing Corporation to recapitalize a predecessor deposit insurance fund. This payment is established quarterly and during the four quarters ended June 30, 2010 averaged 1.04 basis points of
assessable deposits.

The FDIC has authority to increase insurance assessments. In addition, the Dodd-Frank Act requires that
the FDIC amend its assessment system to base it on total assets less tangible equity rather than deposits. A significant increase in insurance premiums would likely have an adverse effect on the operating expenses and results of operations of the
Bank. Management cannot predict what insurance assessment rates will be in the future.

Insurance of deposits may be
terminated by the FDIC upon a finding that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations or has violated any applicable law, regulation, rule, order or condition imposed by
the FDIC. The management of the Bank does not know of any practice, condition or violation that might lead to termination of deposit insurance.

Dividend Restrictions. The Banks ability to pay dividends is governed by
Maryland law and the regulations of the Federal Reserve Board. Maryland law provides that dividends may be paid out of individual profits or with approval of the Commissioner, surplus of 100% of capital stock. Under Maryland law relating to
financial institutions, if the surplus of a commercial bank at any time is less than 100% of its capital stock, then, until the surplus is 100% of the capital stock, the commercial bank: (i) must transfer to its surplus annually at least 10% of
its net earnings; and (ii) may not declare or pay any cash dividends that exceed 90% of its net earnings.

The
Banks payment of dividends is also subject to the Federal Reserve Boards Regulation H, which provides that a state member bank may not pay a dividend if the total of all dividends declared by the bank in any calendar year exceeds the
total of its net profits for the year combined with its retained net profits for the preceding two calendar years, less any required transfers to surplus or to a fund for the retirement of preferred stock, unless the bank has received the prior
approval of the Federal Reserve Board. The previously referenced prompt corrective action requirements prohibit dividends where the Bank would be undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, or critically
undercapitalized after the dividend. Additionally, both the Commissioner and the Federal Reserve Board has the authority to prohibit the payment of dividends by a Maryland commercial bank when it determines such payment to be an unsafe and
unsound banking practice. Finally, the Bank is not able to pay dividends on its capital stock if its regulatory capital would thereby be reduced below the remaining balance of the liquidation account established in connection with its conversion in
April 1996 from mutual to stock form. See Note 10 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements appearing in Item 7 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

In addition, under the terms of the TARP Capital Purchase Program, (1) prior to the earlier of (a) December 5, 2011, or
(b) the date on which all of the Companys preferred shares held by Treasury have been redeemed in full, the Company cannot increase its quarterly cash dividend above $0.07 per common share; (2) during the period beginning on
December 6, 2011 and ending on the earlier of (a) December 5, 2018 or (b) the date on which the preferred shares held by Treasury have been redeemed in full or the Treasury has transferred all its preferred shares to
non-affiliates, Treasurys consent shall be required for any increase in aggregate common dividends per share greater than 3% per annum; and (3) during the period beginning on December 6, 2018 and ending on the date on which all
of the preferred shares held by Treasury have been redeemed in full or the Treasury has transferred all of its preferred shares to non-affiliates, the Company, without the consent of the Treasury, cannot pay any cash dividends.

Uniform Lending Standards. Under Federal Reserve Board regulations, state member banks must adopt and maintain written
policies that establish appropriate limits and standards for extensions of credit that are secured by liens or interests in real estate or are made for the purpose of financing permanent improvements to real estate. These policies must establish
loan portfolio diversification standards, prudent underwriting standards, including loan-to-value limits that are clear and measurable, loan administration procedures and documentation, approval and reporting requirements. The real estate lending
policies of state member banks must reflect consideration of the Interagency Guidelines for Real Estate Lending Policies (the Interagency Guidelines) that have been adopted by the federal banking agencies.

Management will periodically evaluate its lending policies to assure conformity to the Interagency Guidelines and does not anticipate
that the Interagency Guidelines will have a material effect on its lending activities.

Limits on Loans to One
Borrower. The Bank has chosen to be subject to federal law with respect to limits on loans to one borrower. Generally, under federal law, the maximum amount that a commercial bank may loan to one borrower at one time may not exceed 15% of
the unimpaired capital and surplus of the commercial bank, plus an additional 10% if secured by specified readily marketable collateral. The Banks lending limit to one borrower as of June 30, 2010 was $3.7 million.

Transactions with Related Parties. Transactions between a state member bank and any affiliate are governed by Sections 23A
and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act. An affiliate of a state member bank is any company or entity, which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the state member bank. In a holding company context, at a minimum, the parent holding
company of a state member bank and any companies which are controlled by



13

##### Table of Contents

such parent holding company are affiliates of the state member bank. Generally, Sections 23A and 23B (i) limit the extent to which an institution or its subsidiaries may engage in
covered transactions with any one affiliate to an amount equal to 10% of such institutions capital stock and surplus, and contain an aggregate limit on all such transactions with all affiliates to an amount equal to 20% of such
capital stock and surplus, and (ii) require that all such transactions be on terms substantially the same, or at least as favorable, to the institution or subsidiary as those provided to a nonaffiliate. The term covered transaction
includes the making of loans, purchase of assets, issuance of a guarantee and similar other types of transactions. Certain types of covered transactions must be collateralized according to a schedule set forth in the statute based on the type of
collateral.

State member banks are also subject to the restrictions contained in Section 22(h) of the Federal Reserve
Act and the Federal Reserves Regulation O on loans to executive officers, directors and principal stockholders (insiders). Under Section 22(h), aggregate loans to directors, executive officers and greater than 10% stockholders
may not exceed the institutions unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus. Section 22(h) also prohibits loans, above amounts prescribed by the appropriate federal banking agency, to insiders of a state member bank, and their respective
affiliates, unless such loan is approved in advance by a majority of the board of directors of the institution with any interested director not participating in the voting. Regulation O prescribes the loan amount (which includes all
other outstanding loans to such person) as to which prior board of director approval is required as being the greater of $25,000 or 5% of capital and surplus; however loans aggregating to $500,000 or more always require such approval. Further,
Section 22(h) requires that loans to insiders be made on terms substantially the same as offered in comparable transactions to other persons with an exception for loans made to a bank-wide benefit or compensation program that does not give
preference to insiders. Section 22(g) of the Federal Reserve Act places further restrictions on the types of loans that can be made to executive officers.

Additionally, Maryland statutory law imposes restrictions on certain transactions with affiliated persons of Maryland commercial banks.
Generally, under Maryland law, a director, officer or employee of a commercial bank may not borrow, directly or indirectly, any money from the bank, unless the loan has been approved by a resolution adopted at and recorded in the minutes of the
board of directors of the bank, or the executive committee of the bank, if that committee is authorized to make loans. If such a loan is approved by the executive committee, the loan approval must be reported to the board of directors at its next
meeting. Certain commercial loans made to non-employee directors of a bank and certain consumer loans made to nonofficer and nondirector employees of the bank are exempt from the statutes coverage.

Enforcement.The Federal Reserve has primary federal enforcement responsibility over member banks and has the authority to
bring actions against the institution and all institution-affiliated parties, including stockholders, and any attorneys, appraisers and accountants who knowingly or recklessly participate in wrongful action likely to have an adverse effect on an
insured institution. Formal enforcement action may range from the issuance of a capital directive, or cease and desist order to removal of officers and/or directors to institution or receivership, conservatorship or termination of deposit insurance.
Civil penalties cover a wide range of violations and can amount to $25,000 per day, or even $1 million per day in especially egregious cases. The FDIC has the authority to recommend to the Federal Reserve Board that enforcement action to be taken
with respect to a particular institution. If action is not taken by the Federal Reserve Board, the FDIC has authority to take such action under certain circumstances. Federal law also establishes criminal penalties for certain violations.

The Commissioner has extensive enforcement authority over Maryland banks. Such authority includes the ability to issue cease
and desist orders and civil money penalties and to remove directors or officers. The Commissioner may also take possession of a Maryland bank whose capital is impaired and seek to have a receiver appointed by a court.

Regulation of the Company

General. The Company, as the sole shareholder of the Bank, is a bank holding company and is registered as such with
the Federal Reserve Board. Bank holding companies are subject to comprehensive regulation and examination by the Federal Reserve Board under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the BHCA), and the regulations of the Federal
Reserve Board. The Federal Reserve Board also has extensive enforcement authority over bank holding companies, including, among other things, the ability to assess civil money penalties, to issue cease and desist or removal orders and to require
that a holding company divest subsidiaries (including its bank subsidiaries). In general, enforcement actions may be initiated for violations of law and regulations and unsafe or unsound practices.

Under the BHCA, a bank holding company must obtain Federal Reserve Board approval before:
(i) acquiring, directly or indirectly, ownership or control of any voting shares of another bank or bank holding company if, after such acquisition, it would own or control more than 5% of such shares (unless it already owns or controls the
majority of such shares); (ii) acquiring all or substantially all of the assets of another bank or bank holding company; or (iii) merging or consolidating with another bank holding company. In evaluating such applications, the Federal
Reserve Board considers a variety of financial, managerial and competitive factors.

The BHCA also prohibits a bank holding
company, with certain exceptions, from acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 5% of the voting shares of any company which is not a bank or bank holding company, or from engaging directly or indirectly in activities other
than those of banking, managing or controlling banks, or providing services for its subsidiaries. The principal exceptions to these prohibitions involve certain non-bank activities which, by statute or by Federal Reserve Board regulation or order,
have been identified as activities closely related to the business of banking or managing or controlling banks. The list of activities includes, among other things, operating a savings institution, mortgage company, finance company, credit card
company or factoring company; performing certain data processing operations; providing certain investment and financial advice; real estate and personal property appraising; providing tax planning and preparation services; and, subject to certain
limitations, providing securities brokerage services for customers.

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 authorized bank
holding companies that meet certain management, capital and other criteria to choose to become a financial holding company and thereby engage in a broader array of financial activities including insurance underwriting and investment
banking. The Company has not, up to now, opted to become a financial holding company.

Acquisitions of Bank Holding
Companies and Banks. Under the BHCA, any company must obtain approval of the Federal Reserve Board prior to acquiring control of the Company or the Bank. For purposes of the BHCA, control is defined as ownership of more than 25% of
any class of voting securities of the Company or the Bank, the ability to control the election of a majority of the directors, or the exercise of a controlling influence over management or policies of the Company or the Bank. Any bank holding
company must secure Federal Reserve Board approval prior to acquiring 5% or more of the stock of the Company or the Bank.

The
Change in Bank Control Act and the related regulations of the Federal Reserve Board require any person or persons acting in concert (except for companies required to make application under the BHCA), to file a written notice with the Federal Reserve
Board before such person or persons may acquire control of the Company or the Bank. The Change in Bank Control Act presumes control as the power, directly or indirectly, to vote 10% or more of any voting securities or to direct the management or
policies of a bank holding company, such as the Company, that has securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Under Maryland law, acquisitions of 25% or more of the voting stock of a commercial bank or a bank holding company and other acquisitions
of voting stock of such entities which affect the power to direct or to cause the direction of the management or policy of a commercial bank or a bank holding company must be approved in advance by the Commissioner. Any person proposing to make such
an acquisition must file an application with the Commissioner at least 60 days before the acquisition becomes effective. The Commissioner may deny approval of any such acquisition if the Commissioner determines that the acquisition is
anticompetitive or threatens the safety or soundness of a banking institution. Any voting stock acquired without the approval required under the statute may not be voted for a period of five years. This restriction is not applicable to certain
acquisitions by bank holding companies of 5% or more of the stock of Maryland banks or Maryland bank holding companies which are governed by Marylands holding company statute and also require prior approval of the Commissioner.

Dividends. The Federal Reserve Board has issued a policy statement on the payment of cash dividends by bank holding
companies, which expresses the Federal Reserve Boards view that a bank holding company should pay cash dividends only to the extent that the companys net income for the past year is sufficient to cover both the cash dividends and a rate
of earning retention that is consistent with the companys capital needs, asset quality and overall

financial condition. The Federal Reserve Board also indicated that it would be inappropriate for a company experiencing serious financial problems to borrow funds to pay dividends. Furthermore,
under the prompt corrective action regulations adopted by the Federal Reserve Board pursuant to FDICIA, the Federal Reserve Board may prohibit a bank holding company from paying any dividends if the holding companys bank subsidiary is
classified as undercapitalized. See Depository Institution Regulation  Prompt Corrective Regulatory Action.

Under the terms of its trust preferred securities, the Company may not declare or pay dividends on its common stock while it has deferred
interest payments on its debentures. Under the terms of the Articles Supplementary establishing the preferred shares issued to the US Treasury, the Company may not pay dividends on its common stock unless it has paid all accrued and unpaid
dividends on the preferred shares. As a result, the Company currently is not permitted to pay dividends on its common stock.

Capital Requirements. The Federal Reserve Board has established capital requirements generally similar to the
capital requirements for state member banks described above, for bank holding companies. Formerly, these were applied to bank holding companies with total assets of $150 million or above, including the Company. However, in 2007, the Federal Reserve
Board raised the threshold for the applicability of its capital requirements to a $500 million asset size except where the company (i) engages in significant non-banking activities; (ii) conducts significant off balance sheet activities or
has a material amount of debt or equity securities outstanding registered with the Securities Exchange Commission. The Federal Reserve Board has reserved the right to apply its requirements to bank holding companies of any size when required for
supervisory purposes. The Dodd-Frank Act requires the Federal Reserve Board to issue consolidated regulatory capital requirements for holding companies that are at least as stringent as those applicable to the bank. However, the Act appears to allow
the Federal Reserve Board to continue to exempt bank holding companies of less than $500 million in consolidated assets from the holding company capital requirements.

Stock Repurchases.As a bank holding company, the Company is required to give the Federal Reserve Board prior written
notice of any purchase or redemption of its outstanding equity securities if the gross consideration for the purchase or redemption, when combined with the net consideration paid for all such purchases or redemptions during the preceding 12 months,
is equal to 10% or more of the Companys consolidated net worth. The Federal Reserve Board may disapprove such a purchase or redemption if it determines that the proposal would violate any law, regulation, Federal Reserve Board order,
directive, or any condition imposed by, or written agreement with, the Federal Reserve Board. This requirement does not apply to bank holding companies that are well-capitalized, received one of the two highest examination ratings at
their last examination and are not the subject of any unresolved supervisory issues.

Financial Regulatory Legislation

The previously referenced Dodd-Frank Act contains a wide variety of provisions affecting the regulation of depository institutions
in addition to those already mentioned. Those include restrictions related to mortgage originations, risk retention requirements as to securitized loans and the noted newly created consumer protection agency. The full impact of the Dodd-Frank Act on
our business and operations will not be known for years until regulations implementing the statute are written and adopted. The Dodd-Frank Act may have a material impact on our operations, particularly through increased compliance costs resulting
from possible future consumer and fair lending regulations.

Taxation

For fiscal year 2010, the Companys maximum federal income tax rate was 34%. The Company and the Bank, together with the Banks
subsidiary, to date have not filed a consolidated federal income tax return for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010.

The
Banks federal income tax returns have been audited through June 30, 1995. The Companys tax returns have never been audited.

State Income Taxation. The State of Maryland imposes an income
tax of 8.25% on income measured substantially the same as federally taxable income, except that U.S. Government interest is not fully taxable. For years ended prior to July 1, 2008, the rate was 7.00%.

For additional information regarding taxation, see Note 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

A continuation of recent turmoil in the financial markets could have an adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.

Beginning in 2008, United States and global markets have experienced severe disruption and volatility, and general economic
conditions have declined significantly. Adverse developments in credit quality, asset values and revenue opportunities throughout the financial services industry, as well as general uncertainty regarding the economic and regulatory environment, have
had a marked negative impact on the industry. The United States and the governments of other countries have taken steps to try to stabilize the financial system, including investing in financial institutions, and have also been working to design and
implement programs to improve general economic conditions. There can be no assurances that these efforts will be successful in restoring industry, economic or market conditions and that they will not result in adverse unintended consequences.
Factors that could continue to pressure financial services companies, including the Company, are numerous and include: (1) worsening credit quality, leading among other things to increases in loan losses and reserves; (2) continued or
worsening disruption and volatility in financial markets, leading among other things to continuing reductions in asset values; (3) capital and liquidity concerns regarding financial institutions generally; (4) limitations resulting from or
imposed in connection with governmental actions intended to stabilize or provide additional regulation of the financial system; and/or (5) recessionary conditions that are deeper or last longer than currently anticipated.

Changes in interest rates may hurt our earnings.

Short-term market interest rates (which we use as a guide to price our deposits) have until recently risen from historically low levels,
while longer-term market interest rates (which we use as a guide to price our longer-term loans) have not. This flattening of the market yield curve had a negative impact on our net interest margin, which reduced our profitability.
Our net interest margin was 3.40% for the year ended June 30, 2010 compared to 3.44% for the year ended June 30, 2009. Over the last two years, the U.S. Federal Reserve has decreased its target for the federal funds rate from 2.00% to
0.25%. Decreases in interest rates can result in increased prepayments of loans, as borrowers refinance to reduce their borrowing costs. Under these circumstances, we are subject to reinvestment risk as we may have to redeploy such loan
proceeds into lower-yielding assets, which might also negatively impact our income. Additionally, if short-term interest rates rise, and if rates on our deposits reprice upwards faster than the rates on our long-term loans and investments, we would
experience compression of our net interest margin, which would have a negative effect on our profitability. For further discussion of how changes in interest rates could impact us, see Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of OperationsRisk ManagementInterest Rate Risk Management in the 2010 Annual Report, filed as Exhibit 13 to this Form 10-K.

We may be more susceptible to increases in interest rates because of the relatively small amount of adjustable-rate loans currently in
our portfolio and our heavy reliance on core deposits, especially our money market accounts, which reprice frequently. At June 30, 2010, $61.8 million, or 31% of our total loan portfolio, consisted of adjustable-rate loans. We attempt to limit
our exposure to rises in interest rates through: offering adjustable-rate one-to-four family residential real estate loans; an increased focus on multi-family and commercial real estate lending, which emphasizes the origination of shorter-term
adjustable-rate loans; and efforts to originate shorter-term fixed-rate loans. Our inability to successfully originate adjustable-rate multi-family and commercial real estate loans or shorter-term fixed-rate loans could result in further compression
of our net interest margin in a rising interest rate environment, which could hurt our profits.

Recently enacted regulatory reform
legislation may have a material impact on our operations.

On July 21, 2010, the President signed into law The
Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the Dodd-Frank Act). The Dodd-Frank Act restructures the regulation of depository institutions and contains various provisions designed to enhance the regulation of depository
institutions and prevent the recurrence of a financial crisis such as that which occurred in 2008-2009. Included is the creation of a new federal agency to administer and



18

##### Table of Contents

enforce consumer and fair lending laws, a function that is now performed by the depository institution regulators. The federal preemption of state laws currently accorded federally chartered
depository institutions will be reduced as well. The full impact of the Dodd-Frank Act on our business and operations will not be known for years until regulations implementing the statute are written and adopted. The Dodd-Frank Act may have a
material impact on our operations, particularly through increased compliance costs resulting from possible future consumer and fair lending regulations.

Our emphasis on multi-family and commercial lending may expose us to increased lending risks.

At June 30, 2010, $46.9 million, or 23%, of our loan portfolio consisted of multi-family and commercial real estate loans. We intend
to continue our emphasis on these types of higher-yielding loans to provide us with the opportunity to increase profits. However, these types of loans generally expose a lender to greater risk of non-payment and loss than one- to- four-family
residential real estate loans because repayment of the loans often depends on the successful operation of the property and the income stream of borrowers. Such loans typically involve larger loan balances to single borrowers or groups of related
borrowers compared to one- to- four-family residential real estate loans. Also, many of our commercial borrowers have more than one loan outstanding with us. Consequently, an adverse development with respect to one loan or one credit relationship
can expose us to a significantly greater risk of loss compared to an adverse development with respect to a one- to- four-family residential real estate loan.

Our level of nonperforming loans expose us to increased lending risks. Further, our allowance for loan losses may prove to be insufficient to
absorb losses in our loan portfolio.

At June 30, 2010, our non-performing loans totaled $9.7 million,
representing 4.85% of total loans. If these loans continue to not perform according to their terms and the collateral is insufficient to pay any remaining loan balance, we may experience loan losses, which could have a material effect on our
operating results. Like all financial institutions, we maintain an allowance for loan losses to provide for loans in our portfolio that may not be repaid in their entirety. We believe that our allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level
adequate to absorb probable losses inherent in our loan portfolio as of the corresponding balance sheet date. However, our allowance for loan losses may not be sufficient to cover actual loan losses, and future provisions for loan losses could
materially adversely affect our operating results.

In evaluating the adequacy of our allowance for loan losses, we consider
numerous quantitative factors, including our historical charge-off experience, growth of our loan portfolio, changes in the composition of our loan portfolio and the volume of delinquent and classified loans. In addition, we use information about
specific borrower situations, including their financial position and estimated collateral values, to estimate the risk and amount of loss for those borrowers. Finally, we also consider many qualitative factors, including general and economic
business conditions, current general market collateral valuations, trends apparent in any of the factors we take into account and other matters, which are by nature more subjective and fluid. Our estimates of the risk of loss and amount of loss on
any loan are complicated by the significant uncertainties surrounding our borrowers abilities to successfully execute their business models through changing economic environments, competitive challenges and other factors. Because of the degree
of uncertainty and susceptibility of these factors to change, our actual losses may vary from our current estimates.

At
June 30, 2010, our allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.76%. Our regulators, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review our allowance for loan losses and may require us to increase our
allowance for loan losses by recognizing additional provisions for loan losses charged to expense, or to decrease our allowance for loan losses by recognizing loan charge-offs, net of recoveries. Any such additional provisions for loan losses or
charge-offs, as required by these regulatory agencies, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

The Bank may be forced to accept administrative decisions with respect to certain participation loans that might not be in the Banks best
interests and that could cause it to experience losses with respect to such loans that might be larger than it might otherwise incur on a similar portfolio of distressed loans where it was the lead lender.

At June 30, 2010, the Bank had approximately $1.6 million in participation loans originated by a bank that has since been placed
into receivership, with the FDIC appointed as receiver. Approximately $131,000 of these loans were



19



---

##### Table of Contents

classified as nonaccrual loans at June 30, 2010. The assets and liabilities of that bank, including the loan participations in which the Bank has participation interests, have been sold to a
successor bank. That successor bank may have financial interests that differ from those of the Bank with respect to the participation loans, and in $415,000 of those loans has the sole right to administer the loan, which includes the right to make
decisions with respect to the disposition of collateral securing the loans. As a result the Bank may be forced to accept administrative decisions with respect to such loans that might not be in the Banks best interests and that could cause it
to experience losses with respect to such loans that might be larger than it might otherwise incur on a similar portfolio of distressed loans where it was the lead lender.

A downturn in the local economy or a decline in real estate values could hurt our profits.

Nearly all of our real estate loans are secured by real estate in the Baltimore metropolitan area. As a result of this concentration, a
downturn in the local economy could cause significant increases in non-performing loans, which would hurt our profits. Additionally, a decrease in asset quality could require additions to our allowance for loan losses through increased provisions
for loan losses, which would hurt our profits. Several years ago, there had been significant increases in real estate values in our market area. As a result of rising home prices, our loans have been well collateralized. However, in the next few
years, these real estate values have declined, in some cases dramatically, which could cause some of our mortgage loans to become inadequately collateralized, which would expose us to a greater risk of loss. For a discussion of our market area,
see BusinessMarket Area.

Strong competition within our market area could hurt our profits and slow growth.

We face intense competition both in making loans and attracting deposits. This competition has made it more difficult
for us to make new loans and has occasionally forced us to offer higher deposit rates. Price competition for loans and deposits might result in us earning less on our loans and paying more on our deposits, which reduces net interest income. As of
June 30, 2010, we held 0.43% of the deposits in the Baltimore-Towson, Maryland Metropolitan Statistical Area, which was the 24 largest market share of deposits out of the 75 financial institutions in the metropolitan statistical area. Some of
the institutions with which we compete have substantially greater resources and lending limits than we have and may offer services that we do not provide. We expect competition to increase in the future as a result of legislative, regulatory and
technological changes and the continuing trend of consolidation in the financial services industry. Our profitability depends upon our continued ability to compete successfully in our market area. For more information about our market area and the
competition we face, see BusinessMarket Area and BusinessCompetition.

The limitations
on executive compensation imposed through our participation in the TARP Capital Purchase Program may restrict our ability to attract, retain and motivate key employees, which could adversely affect our operations.

As part of our participation in the TARP Capital Purchase Program, we agreed to be bound by certain executive compensation restrictions,
including limitations on severance payments and the clawback of any bonus and incentive compensation that were based on materially inaccurate financial statements or any other materially inaccurate performance metric criteria. Subsequent to the
issuance of the preferred stock, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) was enacted, which provides more stringent limitations on severance pay and the payment of bonuses. To the extent that any of these compensation
restrictions do not permit us to provide a comprehensive compensation package to our key employees that is competitive in our market area, we have difficulty in attracting, retaining and motivating our key employees, which could have an adverse
effect on our results of operations.

Future dividend payments and common stock repurchases are restricted by the terms of the U.S.
Treasurys equity investment in us.

Under the terms of the TARP Capital Purchase Program, until the earlier of
the third anniversary of the date of issuance of the Companys Series A Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock and the date on which the Series A Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock has been redeemed in whole or the U.S. Treasury has transferred
all of the Series A Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock to third parties, we are prohibited from increasing dividends on our common

stock from the last quarterly cash dividend per share ($0.07) declared on the common stock prior to December 5, 2008, as adjusted for subsequent stock dividends and other similar actions,
and from making certain repurchases of equity securities, including our common stock, without the consent of the U.S. Treasury. Furthermore, as long as the Series A Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock is outstanding, dividend payments and
repurchases or redemptions relating to certain equity securities, including our common stock, are prohibited until all accrued and unpaid dividends are paid on such preferred stock, subject to certain limited exceptions.

The terms governing the issuance of the preferred stock to the U.S. Treasury may be changed, the effect of which may have an adverse effect on our
operations.

The terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement in which we entered into with U.S. Treasury pursuant to
the TARP Capital Purchase Program provides that the U.S. Treasury may unilaterally amend any provision of the Purchase Agreement to the extent required to comply with any changes in applicable federal law that may occur in the future. We have no
assurances that changes in the terms of the transaction will not occur in the future. Such changes may place restrictions on our business or results of operation, which may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

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

MANAGEMENTS ANNUAL REPORT ON

INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Management of Patapsco Bancorp, Inc. (the Company) is responsible for the preparation, integrity, and fair presentation of
the consolidated financial statements included in this annual report. The Companys consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and, as such,
include some amounts that are based on the best estimates and judgments of management.

The Companys
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. This internal control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance to management and the Board of Directors regarding the
reliability of the Companys financial reporting and the preparation and presentation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, as well
as to safeguard assets from unauthorized use or disposition. The system of internal control over financial reporting is evaluated for effectiveness by management and tested for reliability through a program of internal audit with actions taken to
correct potential deficiencies as they are identified. Because of inherent limitations in any internal control system, no matter how well designed, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected, including the possibility of the
circumvention or overriding of controls. Accordingly, even an effective internal control system can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Further because of changes in conditions, internal control
effectiveness may vary over time.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Companys internal control
over financial reporting as of June 30, 2010 based upon criteria set forth in Internal Control  Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

Based on this assessment and on the forgoing criteria, management has concluded that, as of June 30, 2010, the
Companys internal control over financial reporting is effective.

This annual report does not include an
attestation report of the Companys registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements report was not subject to attestation by the Companys independent registered public accounting
firm pursuant to the exemption provided to issuers that are not large accelerated filers or accelerated filers under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.
