CITIZENS HOLDING COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As of and for the nine months
ended September 30, 2010

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

These interim consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). However, these financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.
The interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and reflect all adjustments and reclassifications, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations and financial condition as of and
for the interim periods presented. All adjustments and reclassifications are of a normal and recurring nature. Results for the period ended September 30, 2010, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other
interim periods or for the year as a whole.

The interim consolidated financial statements of Citizens Holding Company include the accounts of
its wholly-owned subsidiary, The Citizens Bank of Philadelphia (the Bank and collectively with Citizens Holding Company, the Corporation). All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

For further information and significant accounting policies of the Corporation, see the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of
Citizens Holding Company included in the Corporations Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 15, 2010.

Note 2. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation enters into commitments to extend credit to its customers. The unused portion of these commitments is not reflected in the accompanying financial
statements. As of September 30, 2010, the Corporation had entered into loan commitments with certain customers with an aggregate unused balance of $39,567,607 compared to an aggregate unused balance of $35,605,204 at December 31, 2009.
There were $3,171,959 of letters of credit outstanding at September 30, 2010, and $8,592,050 at December 31, 2009. The fair value of such contracts is not considered material because letters of credit and loan commitments often are not
used in their entirety, if at all, before they expire. The balances of such letters and commitments should not be used to project actual future liquidity requirements. However, the Corporation does incorporate expectations about the level of draws
under its credit-related commitments into its asset and liability management program.

The Corporation is a party to lawsuits and other claims
that arise in the ordinary course of business, all of which are being vigorously contested. In the regular course of business, management evaluates estimated losses or costs related to litigation, and provisions are made for anticipated losses
whenever management believes that such losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. At the present time, management believes, based on the advice of legal counsel, that the final resolution of pending legal proceedings will not have a
material impact on the Corporations consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

Note 3. Net Income per Share

Net income per share - basic has been computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period. Net income
per share - diluted has been computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period plus the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options using the treasury stock method. Earnings per share was computed as follows:

Note 4. Stock Option Plan

At September 30, 2010, the Corporation had one stock-based compensation plan, which is the 1999 Directors Stock Compensation
Plan (the Directors Plan). Prior to its expiration, the Corporation also had the 1999 Employees Long-Term Incentive Plan, or the Employees Plan. The Corporation accounts for these plans under the stock
compensation topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC). This topic provides guidance related to share-based payment transactions, including valuation methods (including assumptions such as expected volatility and expected
term), the classification of compensation expense, non-GAAP financial measures, first-time adoption in an interim period and disclosure in Managements Discussion and Analysis subsequent to adoption.

To determine the expected term of the options granted, the Corporation chose to use the simplified method for plain
vanilla options as detailed in the stock compensation topic of the ASC for those options granted prior to December 31, 2007. Beginning with options granted after that date, the Corporation uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model.
Volatility is determined by using the standard deviation of the differences of the closing stock price of the Corporations common stock as quoted on the American Stock Exchange (through November 15, 2006, the date of the transfer of the
listing of the Corporations common stock to The NASDAQ Global Market) or The NASDAQ Global Market (since November 16, 2006) on or about the 15thof each month starting January 15, 2002. Stock prices prior to that date experienced volatility that is not
representative of the volatility experienced since that time and therefore are not used in this calculation.

As of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2010

(Unaudited)





Although the option grants are not
subject to an explicit vesting schedule, the Corporation recognizes that the restriction on exercising options lapse six months and one day after the grant date, which constitutes a de facto vesting schedule, and must be considered. The stock
compensation topic of the ASC states that a requisite service period may be explicit, implicit or derived and that an implicit service period is one that may be inferred from an analysis of the awards terms. Based on an analysis of the terms
of the option awards, management concluded that the restriction on exercising options until six months and one day have passed since the date of grant constitutes a service period and the compensation costs should be amortized over that six-month
period.

On April 28, 2010, the members of the Board of Directors were granted a total of 13,500 options as specified in the
Directors Plan. These options were granted at an exercise price of $25.72 per option, which was the closing price of Citizens Holding Company stock on that day. These options are first exercisable on October 29, 2010, and must be
exercised no later than April 28, 2020. No options were granted to officers during 2010.

The fair value of each option granted is
estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following assumptions were used in estimating the fair value of the options granted to the directors in the second quarter of 2010.

Using the Black-Scholes option-pricing
model with the foregoing assumptions, it was determined that the cost of options granted under the Directors Plan in April 2010 was $150,748 and should be recognized as an expense of $25,124 per month over the six-month requisite service
period, beginning in April 2010. This was recorded as salary expense with a credit to paid-in capital. A deferred tax on these options was recorded in the aggregate amount of $51,254, or $8,542 per month, over the six-month requisite service period,
beginning in April 2010.

On April 29, 2009, the members of the Board of Directors were granted a total of 13,500 options as specified in
the Directors Plan. These options were granted at an exercise price of $21.75 per option, which was the closing price of Citizens Holding Company stock on that day. These options were first exercisable on October 30, 2009, and must be
exercised no later than April 29, 2019. No options were granted to officers during 2009.

The fair value of each option granted is
estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following assumptions were used in estimating the fair value of the options granted to the directors in the second quarter of 2009.

Note 5. Income Taxes

The income tax topic of the ASC defines the threshold for recognizing
the benefits of tax return positions in the financial statements as more-likely-than-not to be sustained by the taxing authority. This topic also provides guidance on the derecognition, measurement and classification of income tax
uncertainties, along with any related interest and penalties, and includes guidance concerning accounting for income tax uncertainties in interim periods. As of September 30, 2010, the Corporation had no unrecognized tax benefits related to
federal and state income tax matters. Therefore, the Corporation does not anticipate any material increase or decrease in the effective tax rate during 2010 relative to any tax positions taken. It is the Corporations policy to recognize
interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.

The Corporation and its
subsidiaries file a consolidated United States federal income tax return. The Corporation is currently open to audit under the statute of limitations by the Internal Revenue Service for the years ending December 31, 2007 through 2009. The
Corporation and its subsidiaries state income tax returns are open to audit under the statute of limitations for the years ended December 31, 2007 through 2009.

Note 6. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2008, the FASB issued FAS FSP
No. 132(R)-1, Employers Disclosures about Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets(FSP 132-1), codified in the Compensation-Retirement Benefits Topic of the ASC. FSP 132-1 requires further disclosures about the fair value
measurements of an employers benefit plan assets, including disclosures about the following: how investment allocation decisions are made, including the factors material to an understanding of investment policies and strategies; major
categories of plan assets; information about inputs and valuation techniques, including the fair value hierarchy classifications, as defined by Fair Value Topic of the ASC, of the major categories of plan assets; the effect of fair value
measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs) on changes in plan assets; and significant concentrations of risk within plan assets. FSP 132-1 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2009, with
early adoption permitted. The Corporation does not believe that the adoption of FSP 132-1 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets-an Amendment of FAS 140, (SFAS 166), codified in the Transfers and Servicing Topic of the
ASC.The objective of this standard is to provide implementation guidance on accounting for a transfer of a financial asset and repurchase financing. The amendment presumes that an initial transfer of a financial asset and a
repurchase financing are considered part of the same arrangement (linked transaction) under SFAS 166. However, if certain criteria are met, the initial transfer and repurchase financing shall not be evaluated as a linked transaction and shall
not be evaluated under SFAS 166. SFAS 166 was effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009, and its adoption did not have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations.

In August 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2009-05, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, (Topic 820):
Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value(ASU 2009-05) which provides additional guidance on the measurement of liabilities at fair value. Specifically, when a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not
available, ASU 2009-05 requires that the fair value of a liability be measured using one or more of the valuation techniques that should maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. In addition, an
entity is not required to include a separate input or adjustment to other inputs relating to the existence of a restriction that prevents the transfer of a liability. The Corporation adopted ASU 2009-05 effective October 1, 2009, and the
adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, Fair
Value Measurement and Disclosures, (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements(ASU 2010-06) which

requires the addition of new disclosures and clarifies existing disclosure requirements already included in the guidance for fair value measurements. The new disclosures related to significant
transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and the reasons for the transfers, as well as the clarifications of existing disclosures are effective for interim or annual reporting periods beginning after December 15,
2009. The new disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements are effective for interim or annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2010. ASU 2010-06
clarifies and increases the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. Management does not anticipate that ASU 2010-06 will have a material effect on the Corporations financial position, results of operations or stockholders
equity.

In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-20, Receivables (Topic 310): Disclosure about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables
and the Allowance for Credit Losses(ASU 2010-20). ASU 2010-20 requires additional disclosures that facilitate financial statement users evaluation of the nature of credit risk inherent in the entitys portfolio of
financing receivables, how that risk is analyzed and assessed in arriving at the allowance for credit losses and the changes and reasons for those changes in the allowance for credit losses. ASU 2010-20 makes changes to existing disclosure
requirements and includes additional disclosure requirements about financing receivables, including credit quality indicators of financing receivables at the end of the reporting period by class of financing receivables, the aging of past due
financing receivables at the end of the reporting period by class of financing receivables, and the nature and extent of troubled debt restructurings that occurred during the period by class of financing receivables and their effect on the allowance
for credit losses. These disclosures as of the end of a reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The disclosures about activity that occurs during a reporting period are
effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010. We do not expect ASU 2010-20 to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements other than the new required disclosures.

Note 7. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Financial Instruments Topic of the ASC requires disclosure of financial instruments fair values, as well as the methodology and significant assumptions used in estimating fair values. In cases
where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of
future cash flows. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instrument. The Financial Instruments Topic of
the ASC excludes certain financial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the Corporation and may not be indicative of amounts that might
ultimately be realized upon disposition or settlement of those assets and liabilities.

The Fair Value Topic of the ASC
establishes a framework for measuring fair value and required enhanced disclosures about fair value measurements. This topic clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to
transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. This topic also requires disclosure about how fair value was determined for assets and liabilities and established a hierarchy for which these assets and liabilities must be
grouped, based on significant levels of inputs as follows:



|        |  |                                                                                                                                 
|------- |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|Level 1 |  | Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;                                                            
|        | 
|Level 2 |  | Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability; or
|        | 
|Level 3 |  | Unobservable inputs, such as discounted cash flow models or valuations.                                                         

The determination of where assets and liabilities fall within this hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value estimates, methods
and assumptions used by the Corporation in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments were:

Cash
and Due from Banks and Interest Bearing Deposits with Banks

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for these instruments
approximate fair value because of their immediate and shorter-term maturities.

Securities Available-for-Sale

Fair values for investment securities are based on quoted market prices, when available. If quoted market prices are not available,
fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments. When neither quoted prices nor comparable instruments are available, unobservable inputs are needed to form an expected future cash flow analysis to establish fair values.
Level 2 securities include debt securities such as obligations of United States government agencies and corporations, mortgage-backed securities and state, county and municipal bonds. Level 3 securities consist of a pooled trust preferred security.

The following table presents assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2010:



|                              |  |                                                  |   |  |                                  |   |             |                               |  |   |           |  |  |   |             |

As of September 30, 2010,
management determined, based on the current credit ratings, known defaults and deferrals by the underlying banks and the degree to which future defaults and deferrals would be required to occur before the cash flow for the Corporations tranche
is negatively impacted, that no other than temporary impairment exists.

The Corporation recorded no gains or losses in earnings for the
period that were attributable to the change in unrealized gains or losses relating to assets still held at the reporting date.

Net Loans

For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying
values. The fair values for other loans (i.e., commercial real estate and rental property mortgage loans, commercial and industrial loans, financial institution loans, and agricultural loans) are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using
interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable approximates its fair value.

Impaired Loans

Loans considered impaired, as defined in the Receivables topic of the ASC, are reserved for at the time the loan is identified as impaired taking into
account the fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs. Collateral may be real estate and/or business assets including but not limited to, equipment, inventory and accounts receivable. The fair value of real estate is determined based
on appraisals by qualified licensed appraisers. The fair value of the business assets is generally based on amounts reported on the business financial statements. Appraised and reported values may be adjusted based on managements
historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of valuation and managements knowledge of the client and the clients business. Since not all valuation inputs are observable, these nonrecurring fair value determinations
are classified Level 3. Impaired loans are reviewed and evaluated on at least a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly, based on the same factors previously identified.

Other real estate owned

Other real estate owned (OREO) is comprised of commercial and residential real estate obtained in partial and total satisfaction of loan obligations. OREO acquired in settlement of
indebtedness is recorded at fair value of the real estate, less costs to sell. Subsequently, it may be necessary to record nonrecurring fair value adjustments for decline in fair value. Fair value, when recorded, is determined based on appraisals by
qualified licensed appraisers and adjusted for managements estimates of costs to sell. As such, values for OREO are classified as Level 3.

For assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during 2010 that were still held in the balance sheet at September 30, 2010, the following table provides the hierarchy level and the fair
value of the related assets:

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)

As of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2010

(Unaudited)





Federal
Funds Sold and Purchased; Commercial Repurchase Agreements; Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable

Due to the short term nature of
these instruments, the carrying amount is equal to the fair value.

Deposits

The fair values for demand deposits, NOW and money market accounts and savings accounts are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the
reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). The carrying amounts for variable-rate, fixed-term money market accounts and time deposits approximate their fair values at the reporting date. Fair values for fixed-rate time deposits are estimated
using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits. The carrying amount of accrued interest payable approximates its
fair value.

Federal Home Loan Bank Borrowings

The fair value of FHLB advances is based on discounted cash flow analysis.

Off-Balance Sheet Instruments

The fair value of commitments to extend credit and letters of credit are estimated using fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements. The fees associated with these financial instruments are
not material.

The following represents the carrying value and estimated fair value of the Corporations financial instruments at
September 30, 2010, and December 31, 2009:

##### Table of Contents



Managements discussion and
analysis is intended to provide greater insight into the results of operations and the financial condition of Citizens Holding Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, The Citizens Bank of Philadelphia (the Bank, and collectively with
Citizens Holding Company, the Corporation). The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes appearing elsewhere in this report.

LIQUIDITY

The
Corporation has an asset and liability management program that assists management in maintaining net interest margins during times of both rising and falling interest rates and in maintaining sufficient liquidity. A measurement of liquidity is the
ratio of net deposits and short-term liabilities divided by the sum of net cash, short-term investments and marketable assets. This measurement for liquidity of the Corporation at September 30, 2010, was 24.96% and at December 31, 2009,
was 12.36%. This increase in the liquidity percentage was due to a $17 million increase in amount of cash held in due from bank accounts. Management believes it maintains adequate liquidity for the Corporations current needs.

The Corporations primary source of liquidity is customer deposits, which were $558,467,830 at September 30, 2010, and $569,802,585 at
December 31, 2009. Other sources of liquidity include investment securities, the Corporations line of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) and federal funds lines with correspondent banks. The Corporation had
$318,356,411 invested in investment securities at September 30, 2010, and $318,403,999 at December 31, 2009. The Corporation had secured and unsecured federal funds lines with correspondent banks in the amount of $46,400,000 at
September 30, 2010, and $40,500,000 at December 31, 2009. In addition, the Corporation has the ability to draw on its line of credit with the FHLB. At September 30, 2010, the Corporation had unused and available $119,733,743 of its
line of credit with the FHLB and at December 31, 2009, the Corporation had unused and available $154,754,830 of its line of credit with the FHLB. The decrease in the amount available under the Corporations line of credit with the FHLB
from the end of 2009 to September 30, 2010, was the result of a decrease in collateral available, as calculated quarterly by the FHLB, and the issuance of a $12 million advance.

At September 30, 2010, and at December 31, 2009, the Corporation had no funds in federal funds sold. The Corporation usually invests its excess liquidity in federal funds sold on a daily basis
but during these two periods left its excess funds on deposit at the Federal Reserve Bank. This placement was due to the Federal Reserve Bank paying a rate on deposits that was higher than the current Federal Funds Rate offered by commercial banks.

When the Corporation has more funds than it needs for its reserve requirements or short-term liquidity needs, the Corporation increases its
investment portfolio, increases the balances in interest bearing due from accounts or sells federal funds. It is managements policy to maintain an adequate portion of its portfolio of assets and liabilities on a short-term basis to insure rate
flexibility and to meet loan funding and liquidity needs. When deposits decline or do not grow sufficiently to fund loan demand, management will seek funding either through federal funds purchased or advances from the FHLB.

The Corporations equity capital was $81,383,573 at September 30, 2010, as compared to $74,597,464 at December 31, 2009.
One of the reasons for the increase in equity capital was net earnings in excess of dividends paid. Equity capital was also positively impacted by the investment securities market value adjustment due to an increase in the market value of the
Corporations investment portfolio. This market value increase was due to general market conditions, specifically the decrease in short term interest rates, which caused an increase in the market price of the investment portfolio.

Certain employees and directors exercised stock options for 37,150 shares of stock in 2009. These option exercises brought the number of shares
outstanding to 4,838,187 at December 31, 2009. In the first nine months of 2010, four directors and eight officers exercised stock options for 16,350 shares of stock.

Commencing May 1, 2008, the Corporation implemented a stock repurchase program under which the Corporation could repurchase up to 250,000 shares of the Companys common stock on the open market.
At the end of the program, April 30, 2009, the Corporation had purchased 47,284 shares at an average price of $21.17.

Commencing
May 1, 2009, the Corporation renewed its stock repurchase program whereby the Corporation may purchase up to 250,000 shares of the Corporations common stock on the open market. This plan terminated April 30, 2010, and the Corporation
had purchased 49,326 shares at an average price of $22.75. This reduced the number of shares outstanding at September 30, 2010, to 4,838,411.

Cash dividends in the amount of $3,046,341, or $0.63 per share, have been paid in 2010 as of the end of the third quarter.

Quantitative measures established by federal regulations to ensure capital adequacy require the Corporation to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Total and Tier 1 capital (primarily common stock and
retained earnings, less goodwill) to risk weighted assets, and of Tier 1 capital to average assets. Management believes that as of September 30, 2010, the Corporation meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

See Note 3 to the Corporations Consolidated Financial Statements for an explanation regarding the Corporations
calculation of Net Income Per Share - basic and - diluted.

Annualized return on average equity (ROE) was 8.89% for the three
months ended September 30, 2010, and 9.34% for the corresponding period in 2009. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, ROE was 9.29% compared to 9.86% for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. In both instances, the
decrease in ROE was caused by the increase in average equity being greater as a percentage than the net income for the three and nine months of 2010.

The book value per share increased to $16.82 at September 30, 2010, compared to $15.42 at December 31, 2009. The increase in book value per share reflects the increase in equity due to the
amount of earnings in excess of dividends and the increase in other comprehensive income due to the increase in market value of the Corporations investment securities. Average assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, were
$840,125,248 compared to $806,213,076 for the year ended December 31, 2009.

NET INTEREST INCOME
/ NET INTEREST MARGIN

One component of the Corporations earnings is net interest income, which is the difference between the
interest and fees earned on loans and investments and the interest paid for deposits and borrowed funds. The net interest margin is net interest income expressed as a percentage of average earning assets.

The annualized net interest margin was 3.96% for the third quarter of 2010 compared to 4.34% for the corresponding period of 2009. For the nine months
ended September 30, 2010, annualized net interest margin was 4.04% compared to 4.20% for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease in net interest margin from 2009 to 2010 is the result of a larger decrease in yields on
earning assets compared to the decrease in rates paid on deposits and borrowed funds, as detailed below. Earning assets averaged $769,914,113 for the three months ended September 30, 2010. This represents an increase of $21,057,810, or 2.8%,
over average earning assets of $748,856,303 for the three month period ended September 30, 2009. Earning assets averaged $764,133,906 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. This represents an increase of $38,118,832, or 5.3% over
average earning assets of $726,015,074 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The increase in earning assets for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, is the result of the normal growth pattern of the Corporation and
not due to any special investments or acquisitions.

Interest bearing deposits averaged $472,688,213 for the three months ended
September 30, 2010. This represents a decrease of $6,138,095, or 1.3%, from the average of interest bearing deposits of $478,826,308 for the three month period ended September 30, 2009. This was due to a decrease in interest bearing
transaction accounts and in certificates of deposit outstanding partially offset by an increase in savings accounts.

Other borrowed funds
averaged $197,667,235 for the three months ended September 30, 2010. This represents an increase of $20,069,542, or 11.3%, over the other borrowed funds of $177,597,693 for the three month period ended September 30, 2009. This increase in
other borrowed funds was due to a $18,753,441 increase in the Commercial Repo Liability, a $263,247 decrease in the ABE Loan Liability, a $485,869 decrease in Federal Funds Purchased and an increase in the Federal Home Loan Bank advances of
$2,065,217 for the three month period ended September 30, 2010, when compared to the three month period ended September 30, 2009.

Interest bearing deposits averaged $471,184,285 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010. This represents a decrease of $5,966,032, or
1.3% from the average of interest bearing deposits of $477,150,317 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2009. This was due to a decrease in certificates of deposit partially offset by an increase in interest bearing transaction
accounts and savings accounts.

Other borrowed funds averaged $195,216,396 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. This represents
an increase of $37,001,956, or 23.4% over the other borrowed funds of $158,214,440 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2009. This increase in other borrowed funds was due to a $32,429,531 increase in the Commercial Repo Liability, a

decrease in the ABE Loan Liability, a $955,312 decrease in Federal Funds Purchased and an increase in the Federal Home Loan Bank advances of $5,780,220 for the nine month period ended
September 30, 2010, when compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 2009.

Net interest income was $7,281,125 for the
three month period ended September 30, 2010, a decrease of $543,184 from $7,824,309 for the three month period ended September 30, 2009, primarily due to changes in both volume and rate. The changes in volume in earning assets and in
deposits and in borrowed funds are discussed above. As to changes in rate, in the three month period ended September 30, 2010, the yield on earning assets decreased faster than the rates paid on deposits and borrowed funds as compared to the
changes in rates and yields in the same period in 2009. The yield on all interest bearing assets decreased 65 basis points to 5.10% in the third quarter of 2010 from 5.75% for the same period in 2009. At the same time, the rate paid on all interest
bearing liabilities for the third quarter of 2010 decreased by 40 basis points to 1.22% from 1.62% in the same period of 2009. Net interest income was $22,057,698 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, an increase of $91,250 from the
$21,966,448 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2009, primarily due to changes in both rate and volume. The changes in volume in earning assets and in deposits and in borrowed funds are discussed above. As to changes in rate, in the
nine month period ended September 30, 2010, the rates paid on deposits and borrowed funds decreased less than the yield on earning assets as compared to the changes in rates and yields in the same period of 2009. The yield on all interest
bearing assets decreased 59 basis points to 5.21% in the first nine months of 2010 from 5.80% for the same period in 2009. At the same time, the rate paid on all interest bearing liabilities for the first nine months of 2010 decreased 49 basis
points to 1.35% from 1.84% in the same period in 2009. As longer term interest bearing assets and liabilities mature and reprice, management believes that the yields on interest bearing assets and rates on interest bearing liabilities will both
decrease.

The following table shows the interest and fees and corresponding yields for loans only.

The decrease in interest rates in the nine
month period ended September 30, 2010, reflects the decrease in all loan interest rates for both new and refinanced loans in the period.

CREDIT LOSS EXPERIENCE

As a natural corollary to the Corporations lending
activities, some loan losses are to be expected. The risk of loss varies with the type of loan being made and the overall creditworthiness of the borrower over the term of the loan. The degree of perceived risk is taken into account in establishing
the structure of, and interest rates and security for, specific loans and for various types of loans. The Corporation attempts to minimize its credit risk exposure by use of thorough loan application and approval procedures.

##### Table of Contents



The Corporation maintains a program of
systematic review of its existing loans. Loans are graded for their overall quality. Those loans, which the Corporations management determines require further monitoring and supervision, are segregated and reviewed on a regular basis.
Significant problem loans are reviewed on a monthly basis by the Corporations Board of Directors.

The Corporation charges off that
portion of any loan that management has determined to be a loss. A loan is generally considered by management to represent a loss in whole or in part when exposure beyond the collateral value is apparent, servicing of the unsecured portion has been
discontinued or collection is not anticipated based on the borrowers financial condition. The general economic conditions in the borrowers industry influence this determination. The principal amount of any loan that is declared a loss is
charged against the Corporations allowance for loan losses.

The Corporations allowance for loan losses is designed to provide for
loan losses that can be reasonably anticipated. The allowance for loan losses is established through charges to operating expenses in the form of provisions for loan losses. Actual loan losses or recoveries are charged or credited to the allowance
for loan losses. Management of the Corporation determines the amount of the allowance. Among the factors considered in determining the allowance for loan losses are the current financial condition of the Corporations borrowers and the value of
security, if any, for their loans. Estimates of future economic conditions and their impact on various industries and individual borrowers are also taken into consideration, as are the Corporations historical loan loss experience and reports
of banking regulatory authorities. As these estimates, factors and evaluations are primarily judgmental, no assurance can be given as to whether the Corporation will sustain loan losses in excess or below its allowance or that subsequent evaluation
of the loan portfolio may not require material increases or decreases in such allowance.

The provision for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2010, was $397,200, a decrease of
$726,097 from the $1,123,297 provision for the same period in 2009. The provision for loan losses was $1,717,411 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, compared to a provision of $2,263,642 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2009. The decrease in our loan loss provisions for the three and nine month periods is a result of changes in outstanding loans, loan losses recorded for the respective periods and managements assessment of inherent
loss in the loan portfolio, including the impact caused by current local and national economic conditions. The Corporations model used to calculate the provision is based on the percentage of historical charge-offs applied
to the current loan balances by loan segment and specific reserves applied to certain impaired loans. Nonaccrual loans increased during this period due to the condition of the local and national economies.

For the three months ended September 30, 2010, net loan losses charged to the allowance for loan losses totaled $115,969, a decrease of $357,162
from the $473,131 charged off in the same period in 2009. For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, net loan losses charged to the allowance for loan losses totaled $947,760, a decrease of $266,768 from the $1,214,528 charged off in the
same period in 2009. These decreases were due to a decreased number of charge offs in 2010 when compared to the same period in 2009 and not the result of any one loan segment.

Management reviews with the Board of Directors the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis. The loan loss provision is adjusted when specific items reflect a need for such an
adjustment. Management believes that there were no material loan losses during the first nine months of 2010 that have not been charged off. Management also believes that the Corporations allowance will be adequate to absorb probable losses
inherent in the Corporations loan portfolio. However, in light of overall economic conditions in the Corporations geographic area and the nation as a whole, it is possible that additional provisions for loan loss may be required.

##### Table of Contents

for the three months ended September 30, 2010, was $1,720,636, a decrease of $360,191, or 17.3%, from the same period in 2009. This decrease was due mainly to a $291,319 decrease in income
from sales of investment securities. Service charges on deposit accounts decreased by $89,938, or 8.3%, to $991,121 in the three months ended September 30, 2010, compared to $1,081,059 for the same period in 2009. Other service charges and fees
increased by $4,929, or 1.2%, in the three months ended September 30, 2010, compared to the same period in 2009. The difference in fee income was the result of fluctuations in volume and not a direct result of fee changes.

Non-interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, was $5,109,459, a decrease of $412,509, or 7.5%, compared to $5,521,968 for the
same period in 2009. This decrease was due mainly to a decrease in the income from sales of other real estate and a decrease in income from bank owned life insurance. Service charges on deposit accounts decreased $32,932, or 1.1%, to $2,976,894 in
the nine months ended September 30, 2010, as compared to the same period in 2009. Other service charges and fees increased $82,141, or 7.7%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2010, as compared to the same period in 2009. The
difference in fee income was the result of fluctuations in volume and not a direct result of fee changes.

CASH AND CASH
EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash, balances at correspondent banks and items in process of collection. The balance at
September 30, 2010, was $43,515,619, an increase of $22,917,284 from the balance of $20,598,335 at December 31, 2009, due to an increase in the availability of cash letters sent for collection on the last day of the period and an increase
in interest bearing accounts. The rate paid on deposit at the Federal Reserve Bank was greater than the Federal Funds Sold rate paid by correspondent banks.

PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT

During the nine month period ended September 30, 2010,
premises and equipment increased by $1,408,573, or 7.8%, to $19,532,682 when compared to $18,124,109 at December 31, 2009. The increase was due to the addition of property and equipment exceeding the amount of depreciation in the normal course
of business. During this time, additions were made for interim construction costs on a new branch building in Hattiesburg and the renovation of a building for additional office space in Philadelphia.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES

The investment securities portfolio consists of United States Agency debentures, mortgage-backed securities, obligations of states, counties and municipal
governments and FHLB stock. Investments at September 30, 2010, decreased $47,588, or 0.01%, to $318,356,411 from the balance at December 31, 2009. This decrease is due to sales, maturities and calls of securities in our investment
portfolio that were not reinvested, as a strategy to reallocate some funds to more liquid assets as part of our on-going management of liquidity sources and needs.

LOANS

The loan balance decreased by $18,425,639 during the nine months ended
September 30, 2010, to $423,268,923 from $441,694,562 at December 31, 2009. Loan demand, especially in the commercial and industrial loan and consumer categories, was weak during the first nine months of 2010. No material changes were made
to the loan products offered by the Corporation during this period.

potential developments which could affect the Corporations financial performance. The following discussion highlights potential risks which could intensify over time or shift dynamically in a way that might change the Corporations risk
profile.

Competition Risks

The market in which the Corporation competes is saturated with community banks seeking to provide a service oriented banking experience to individuals and businesses compared with what the Corporation
believes is the more rigid and less friendly environment found in large banks. This requires the Corporation to offer most, if not all, of the products and conveniences that are offered by the larger banks with a service differentiation. In doing
so, it is imperative that the Corporation identify the lines of business that the Corporation can excel in, prudently utilize the Corporations available capital to acquire the people and platforms required thereof and execute on the strategy.

Credit Risks

Like all lenders, the Corporation faces the risk that the Corporations customers may not repay their loans and that the realizable value of collateral may be insufficient to avoid a loss of
principal. In the Corporations business, some level of credit loss is unavoidable and overall levels of credit loss can vary over time. Our ability to manage credit risks depends primarily upon the Corporations ability to assess the
creditworthiness of customers and the value of collateral, including real estate. The Corporation controls credit risk by diversifying the Corporations loan portfolio and managing its composition, and by recording and managing an allowance for
expected loan losses in accordance with applicable accounting rules. At the end of September 2010, the Corporation had $6.296 million of available reserves to cover such losses. The models and approaches the Corporation uses to originate and manage
loans are regularly updated to take into account changes in the competitive environment, in real estate prices and other collateral values, and in the economy, among other things based on the Corporations experience originating loans and
servicing loan portfolios.

Financing, Funding and Liquidity Risks

One of the most important aspects of managements efforts to sustain long-term profitability for the Corporation is the management of interest rate
risk. Managements goal is to maximize net interest income within acceptable levels of interest-rate risk and liquidity.

The
Corporations assets and liabilities are principally financial in nature and the resulting earnings thereon are subject to significant variability due to the timing and extent to which the Corporation can reprice the yields on interest-earning
assets and the costs of interest bearing liabilities as a result of changes in market interest rates. Interest rates in the financial markets affect the Corporations decisions on pricing its assets and liabilities which impacts net interest
income, an important cash flow stream for the Corporation. As a result, a substantial part of the Corporations risk-management activities are devoted to managing interest-rate risk. There is

also focus on managing the risks associated with the volatility of fair value in both mortgage loan servicing rights and mortgage banking assets. Currently, the Corporation does not have any
significant risks related to foreign exchange, commodities or equity risk exposures.

Interest Rate and Yield Curve
Risks

A significant portion of the Corporations business involves borrowing and lending money. Accordingly, changes in interest
rates directly impact the Corporations revenues and expenses, and potentially could compress the Corporations net interest margin. The Corporation actively manages its balance sheet to control the risks of a reduction in net interest
margin brought about by ordinary fluctuations in rates.

The Corporations mortgage lending and servicing businesses also are affected by
changes in interest rates. Generally, when rates increase demand for mortgage loans decreases (and the Corporations revenues from new originations fall), and when rates decrease, demand increases (and the Corporations origination
revenues increase). In a contrary fashion, when interest rates increase the value of mortgage servicing rights (MSR) that the Corporation retains generally increases, and when rates decline the value of MSR declines. Within the Corporations
mortgage businesses, therefore, there is a partial natural hedge against ordinary interest rate changes.

Like all financial services
companies, the Corporation faces the risks of abnormalities in the yield curve. The yield curve simply shows the interest rates applicable to short and long term debt. The curve is steep when short-term rates are much lower than long-term rates: it
is flat when short-term rates are equal, or nearly equal, to long-term rates: and it is inverted when short-term rates exceed long-term rates. Historically, the yield curve is positively sloped. A flat or inverted yield curve tends to decrease net
interest margin, as funding costs increase relative to the yield on assets. Currently, the yield curve is positively sloped.

Regulatory and Legal Risks

The Corporation operates in a heavily regulated industry and therefore is subject to many banking, deposit, and consumer lending regulations in addition to the rules applicable to all companies publicly
traded in the U.S. securities markets. Failure to comply with applicable regulations could result in financial, structural, and operational penalties. In addition, efforts to comply with applicable regulations may increase the Corporations
costs and, or limit the Corporations ability to pursue certain business opportunities. Federal and state regulations significantly limit the types of activities in which the Corporation, as a financial institution, may engage. In addition, the
Corporation is subject to a wide array of other regulations that govern other aspects of how the Corporation conducts the Corporations business, such as in the areas of employment and intellectual property. Federal and state legislative and
regulatory authorities occasionally consider changing these regulations or adopting new ones. Such actions could limit the amount of interest or fees the Corporation can charge, could restrict the Corporations ability to collect loans or
realize on collateral or could materially affect us in other ways. Additional federal and state consumer protection regulations also could expand the privacy protections afforded to customers of financial institutions, restricting the
Corporations ability to share or receive customer information and increasing the Corporations costs. In addition, changes in accounting rules can significantly affect how the Corporation records and reports assets, liabilities, revenues,
expenses and earnings.

The Corporation also face litigation
risks from customers (singly or in class actions) and from federal or state regulators. Litigation is an unavoidable part of doing business, and the Corporation manages those risks through internal controls, personnel training, insurance, litigation
management, the Corporations compliance and ethics processes and other means. However, the commencement, outcome and magnitude of litigation cannot be predicted or controlled with certainty.

Accounting Estimate Risks

The preparation of the Corporations consolidated financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make significant estimates that
affect the financial statements. Two of the Corporations most critical estimates are the level of the allowance for credit losses and the valuation of mortgage servicing rights. However, other estimates occasionally become highly significant,
especially in volatile situations such as litigation and other loss contingency matters. Estimates are made at specific points in time; as actual events unfold, estimates are adjusted accordingly. Due to the inherent nature of these estimates, it is
possible that, at some time in the future, the Corporation may significantly increase the allowance for credit losses or sustain credit losses that are significantly higher than the provided allowance, or the Corporation may recognize a significant
provision for impairment of the Corporations mortgage servicing rights, or the Corporation may make some other adjustment that will differ materially from the estimates that the Corporation make today.

Expense Control

Expenses and other costs directly affect the Corporations earnings. The Corporations ability to successfully manage expenses is important to
its long-term profitability. Many factors can influence the amount of the Corporations expenses, as well as how quickly they grow. As the Corporations businesses change or expand, additional expenses can arise from asset purchases,
structural reorganization evolving business strategies, and changing regulations, among other things. The Corporation manages expense growth and risk through a variety of means, including actual versus budget management, imposition of expense
authorization, and procurement coordination and processes.
