Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, The Commercial & Savings Bank SENIOR
MANAGEMENT Dear Fellow Shareholder: We are pleased to provide you, our Partners in
Growth, with this report of the Companys performance and our strong position for moving forward.
As you know, banking has not been a favored sector with investors, consumers or the media in recent
years. Yet, CSB has, with your continued support as shareholders, delivered strong and steady
performance for our shareholders, customers and the communities we serve. Our hope is that this
letter and its accompanying reports will clearly demonstrate the value of your partnership with us.
Together, we are building an ever-stronger Company that consistently delivers excellence in
products and service to its customers, and thereby generates increasing value for you our
shareholders. The Industry The steadfast work of community banks continued unabated in 2010, even
though the overall banking industry seemed to constantly receive less than favorable press in the
media. Throughout the country, in neighborhoods large and small, community banks continue to meet
the needs of borrowers, depositors and investors in a committed fashion and with excellent service.
The overall banking industry returned to profitability in 2010, generating a 0.66% return on
average assets and 5.99% return on average equity. Far from stellar numbers to be sure, but a
marked improvement from the prior two years. Positive momentum appears to be developing as industry
earnings increased in each quarter of the past year. It also appears that 2010 will have been the
high water mark for bank failures during this contraction cycle, with 157 failures reducing the
number of U.S. banks and savings institutions by almost 2%. Bank failures will continue to occur in
2011 at a lower rate as the industry continues to digest significant loan losses that in some cases
exceed loss reserves and bank capital. Overall, though, the industry appears to have enough
earnings momentum and capital to maintain stability as this cycle comes to a close. Letter

12.00% 14.00% Letter to Shareholders Our Financial Performance At
times, the past year felt a bit like we were pedaling a bicycle into the wind. We were clearly
moving forward as the year progressed, but not at a speed that we would expect under normal
conditions. In the end, earnings, equity and the book value of our stock were up 3%, and the
balance sheet grew by 1%. Total return on the Companys stock was in excess of 6%, with the market
price finishing the year up 2%, and the cash dividend yielding over 4% as measured by year-end
stock price. These results are relatively modest compared to what we want to deliver over the long
run, but they do represent continuation of forward financial momentum during extraordinary market
circumstances. At the same time, net interest income declined 1% and non-interest income declined
3% compared to the prior year. These declines in revenue were a clear reflection of very low
prevailing interest rates, coupled with sluggish demand for loans and cautious consumer spending
which led to reductions in fees earned. On balance, we consider our 2010 results to be encouraging.
But we also recognize that the coming year will remain full of challenges from a financial
performance standpoint given the economy, very low interest rates, credit quality and
hyper-regulatory activity. As always, we will do our best to deliver results well above the average
for our industry, and to continue building value for our shareholders. Economic Conditions In many
respects, prevailing economic conditions during the year just ended were little changed from the
preceding period. High unemployment levels severely curtailed the U.S. economic activity, forcing
many consumers and businesses to cut back, or deleverage, as they struggled to meet existing debt
obligations. Lack of confidence in prospects for considerable near-term improvement also limited
investment and resource deployment. As we begin 2011, economic prospects do not appear to have
changed noticeably from the prior year, although there are fairly clear signals that a period of
recovery has begun. The national economy has been expanding for more than a year. Unemployment
rates are declining in most parts of the nation. These improving conditions seem to be occurring at
an intolerably slow, almost imperceptible pace, yet taken as a whole they do demonstrate a reversal
of recessionary trends. Rather than an economic rebound, current conditions could be likened
somewhat to the aftermath of a storm, with calmer conditions prevailing but a lot of work needed to
return to pre-crisis status. Our market area, as well, appears to have begun a slow reversal from
the severe economic downturn that began late in 2007. Unemployment in the Companys markets peaked
in the first quarter of 2010, and has been receding since that time. However, at the end of the
year, unemployment in our markets was still more than 50% above the average of the prior ten years,
and remained a clear hindrance to the pace of recovery. Demand for new commercial loans remains
soft, but appears to be somewhat improved as compared to the beginning or middle of 2010.
Residential mortgage, home equity lines and mortgage refinancing activity remain at comparatively
low levels. All in all, it seems to us that the torment of the economic reset has largely
occurred in both consumer and business sectors, and while conditions remain trying for many,
forward economic momentum is gradually being reestablished. Credit Quality Loan losses in 2010,
stated as a percentage of our total loan portfolio, were more than double our average rate of the
prior ten years, with delinquency rates also elevated to about that same
extent throughout the
entire year. Still, our rate of loan loss was less than half that of the national peer group by
which we are measured on a regulatory reporting basis. We take little solace in appearing better
than the majority of the pack in this respect, but we do attribute the favorable comparison to the
relatively high quality of loans that comprise our loan portfolio. We believe our loan loss
results, while abnormally high for our Company, demonstrate that consistently conservative
underwriting standards play a key role in mitigating credit losses during economic downturns. We
have not moved beyond our concern about the level of nonperforming loans. Early stage delinquency
rates continue to move up and down in a somewhat elevated range, indicating to us that credit
management will continue to require heightened levels of attention in the coming year. ) 1 1

3.50% Enhancing Customer Convenience We offer a solid platform of products and
services, but we are forging ahead with further advancement of our capabilities. In the coming
year, we will introduce enhanced customer services via our website (csb1.com) and ATM delivery
channels, as well as the ability to receive statements electronically. The early stages of these
initiatives, and the completion of many other enhancements in recent years, were led by Paul Greig,
who retired as our chief operating officer in the middle of 2010 after seven years of service with
absolute distinction. Pauls steady hand and tireless efforts at leading continuous improvement in
our operations provided an excellent foundation for moving forward. Later in 2010, Bob Manning
joined our team as chief operating officer and without missing a beat, has provided excellent
leadership to key existing initiatives and identified improvement opportunities. We are confident
that customers, employees and shareholders alike will benefit from Bobs presence as a member of
our senior leadership team. Who We Are Some years ago, we identified six values fundamental to our
conduct. These values are woven into the mission of our Company as an independent community bank,
which is to provide high quality financial services through valued employees, thereby meeting the
needs of customers and the diverse communities we serve, and generating profit and increasing value
for our shareholders. Those six values are profit responsibility, customer service, employees,
honesty, enjoyment of work and growth. If we underweight any of these values, it becomes more
difficult to achieve our mission. Of all these values, growth seems to conjure up the widest range
of perspectives among our shareholders, customers and employees. Occasionally, we hear from one
constituent or another that they hope we dont get so big that it changes how we treat our
customers, shareholders or employees. Rest assured we are resolved to building ever-stronger
relationships with customers, shareholders and employees. Our board and management have a fairly
straightforward view about growth. We are committed to sustainable growth, and we value growth as
part of the life-blood of our future. Notice that we say sustainable growth. By that we mean
prudent, appropriate growth. For our Company, growth must be achieved within the context of
effective risk management. Why is growth so important? Very simply, growth provides increasing
levels of cash flow and capital to support reinvestment in the Company and fair returns to our
shareholders. Without growth it is exceedingly difficult  perhaps impossible in the long run  to
absorb a variety of increasing costs, such as compliance with new regulations and appropriate pay
and benefits to all employees. Sometimes cost increases can be offset by improving systems and
procedures. In the past year, we were able to slightly reduce our total noninterest expenses. We
certainly believe we have more cost-saving opportunities and an important component of our
continuous improvement process includes focus on such initiatives. We do want to be clear though,
we have no intention of changing the essence of who we are, only to continually improve how we
perform. Let us know how were doing, and share any thoughts you have on how we can continue to
improve our performance for shareholders, customers, employees and the communities we serve. Eddie

2010 Financial Review INTRODUCTION CSB Bancorp, Inc. (the Company or CSB)
was incorporated under the laws of the State of Ohio in 1991 and is a registered bank holding
company. The Companys wholly-owned subsidiaries are The Commercial and Savings Bank (the Bank)
and CSB Investment Services, LLC. The Bank is chartered under the laws of the State of Ohio and was
organized in 1879. The Bank is a member of the Federal Reserve System, with deposits insured by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and its primary Regulators are the Ohio Division of
Financial Institutions and the Federal Reserve Board. The Company, through the Bank, provides
retail and commercial banking services to its customers including checking and savings accounts,
time deposits, cash management, safe deposit facilities, personal loans, commercial loans, real
estate mortgage loans, installment loans, IRAs, night depository facilities and trust and brokerage
services. Its customers are located primarily in Holmes, Tuscarawas, Wayne, Stark and portions of
surrounding counties in Ohio. The Companys market area has historically exhibited relatively
stable economic conditions; however, a pronounced slowdown in economic activity has been evident
since the latter half of 2008. Unemployment levels in Holmes County have generally been among the
lowest in the State of Ohio, while the balance of the Companys market area typically experiences
unemployment levels similar to the state average. Unemployment in the Companys market area peaked
during the first quarter of 2010 and improved steadily thereafter, although average unemployment
for the year as a whole was 80% higher than our markets average over the prior ten-year period.
Moderate reductions in real estate values have also developed as a result of the prevailing
recessionary conditions. Effective as of the close of business on October 31, 2008, CSB completed
the merger of Indian Village Bancorp, Inc. (Indian Village) with and into CSB pursuant to the
terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated May 14, 2008. Immediately following the merger,
Indian Village Community Bank was merged with and into The Commercial and Savings Bank of
Millersburg. The former Indian Village banking centers are located in Gnadenhutten, New
Philadelphia and North Canton, Ohio. The Company paid a combination of stock and cash as set forth
in the definitive agreement and plan of merger for each outstanding common share of Indian Village,
resulting in merger consideration of approximately $8.1 million, including direct acquisition
costs. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting (see Note 3 -
Business Combination). FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Certain statements contained in
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are not

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Net Income CSBs 2010 net income was $3.5 million while basic and
diluted earnings per share were $1.28, as compared to $3.4 million or $1.24 per share for the year
ended 2009. Net income increased 3.1% during 2010 as compared to 2009, due primarily to a $142
thousand decrease in total noninterest expenses and a $90 thousand increase in total noninterest
income. Partially offsetting the income increases was a reduction in net interest income and
increases in the provision for loan losses and federal income taxes. Return on average assets was
0.78% in 2010 compared to 0.79% in 2009, and return on average shareholders equity was 7.43% in
2010 as compared to 7.51% in 2009. Net income for 2009 was $3.4 million, a decrease of $146
thousand or 4.1% from 2008. Basic and diluted net income per share was $1.24 and $1.43 for the
years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Net income decreased in 2009 primarily due to
a $1.0 million increase in the provision for loan losses and higher noninterest expenses for
increased FDIC assessments and a larger infrastructure with the addition of Indian Village.
Partially offsetting the credit cost and other expense increases were a 13.6% increase in net
interest income from the larger balance sheet resulting from the Indian Village acquisition and a
6.0% increase in noninterest income primarily from increased gains on sale of mortgage loans into
the secondary market. Additionally, the Company had an 11.3% reduction in the provision for income
taxes in 2009 as compared to 2008 due to a lower effective tax rate. Return on average assets was
0.79% in 2009 compared to 0.99% in 2008, and return on average shareholders equity was 7.51% in
2009 compared to 9.23% in 2008. Net Interest Income (Dollars in thousands) 2010 2009

interest yield  taxable equivalent 3.73% 3.93% 4.13% 1Taxable equivalent adjustments
have been computed assuming a 34% tax rate. Net interest income is the largest source of the
Companys revenue and consists of the difference between interest income generated on earning
assets and interest expense incurred on liabilities (deposits and short-term and long-term
borrowings). Volumes, interest rates and composition of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities affect net interest income. Interest income decreased $1.7 million in
2010 as compared to 2009. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease of 62 basis points on
earning assets as historically low interest rates continued in 2010. Additionally, the daily
average balance of loans decreased $3.7 million or 1.2% during 2010. Interest income increased $1.5
million, in 2009 as compared to 2008. The increase in interest income was primarily due to the
increase in the volume of assets from Indian Village. Interest and fees on loans increased $1.5
million, or 8.9% in 2009, mainly due to the increase in average loan balances of $54.3 million, or
20.7%. The volume increase was partially offset by loan yields decreasing 63 basis points with
interest rates at or near historical lows in 2009. Interest expense decreased $1.5 million, or
24.0%, for 2010 as compared to 2009, due to continued declines in average rates paid for interest
bearing liabilities, from 1.90% in 2009 to 1.42% in 2010. Interest expense on deposits declined
$797 thousand, even though average deposit balances increased by $17.0 million, or 6.6% in 2010 as
compared to 2009. Interest expense on borrowed funds decreased by $723 thousand due to principal
reductions and maturities of FHLB advances, and lower interest rates remaining on outstanding
borrowings. Interest expense decreased $403 thousand, or 6
..0%, for 2009 as compared to 2008, due to
a decline in the average rate paid for the year from 2.45% in 2008 to 1.90% in 2009. Interest
expense on deposits decreased $531 thousand, or 11.0% in 2009. The decrease in interest expense
occurred even though the average balances of interest-bearing deposits and borrowed funds increased
by $58.9 million, or 21.4% in 2009 as compared to 2008. The increase in the average balances of
interest-bearing liabilities was mainly from the acquisition of Indian Village. 2010

Provision for Loan Losses The provision for loan losses is determined by management as the amount
required to bring the allowance to a level considered appropriate to absorb probable future net
charge-offs inherent in the loan portfolio as of period end. The provision for loan losses was $1.2
million for 2010, $1.3 million for 2009 and $333 thousand for 2008. Higher provision expense in
2010 and 2009 reflects adverse economic conditions which have led to an increase in charge-offs and
nonperforming loans. See Financial Condition  Allowance for Loan Losses for additional

Noninterest income increased $90 thousand, or 2.8%, for 2010 as compared to 2009.
Service charges on deposits declined $108 thousand, or 8.8% for 2010 as compared to 2009,
continuing a two-year trend of consumers overdrawing their accounts less frequently. Trust fees
increased in 2010 as fair market valuations and assets under management both increased. The average
market value of trust assets under management during 2010 and 2009 was $61.2 million and $53.2
million, respectively. Debit card interchange fees increased $114 thousand, or 29.0% due primarily
to increased consumer usage as monthly fees are waived on certain consumer checking accounts when
the consumer reaches a specified minimum number of monthly debit card transactions. Gain on sale of
loans declined in 2010 due to volume decreases in 1- 4 family residential mortgages sold into the
secondary market, reflecting a softening of the consumer refinancing wave. Securities gains
increased primarily from the sale of certain mortgagebacked securities whose values rose in the low
interest rate environment in 2010. Other income increased $68 thousand or 15.1% primarily from
increases in loan servicing income of $35 thousand and check printing income of $28 thousand. Total
noninterest income increased $182 thousand or 6.0% in 2009 from 2008. Service charges on deposit
accounts declined $39 thousand or 3.1% as consumers overdrew their accounts less frequently in 2009
as compared to 2008. Trust service fee income declined $99 thousand in 2009 due to lower
market-related fees for assets under management. Debit card interchange fees increased $76
thousand, or 24.0%, due primarily to volume increases following the acquisition of Indian Village
in 2008. Securities gains increased primarily from the sale of certain private label CMOs whose
values recovered during 2009. Other income increased $75 thousand or 20.0% primarily from a full
year accretion in CSV life insurance acquired in the Indian Village transaction. Noninterest

1,407 12.4% $11,311 N.M., not a meaningful value Noninterest expense decreased $142
thousand in 2010 as compared to 2009. Occupancy expense decreased $206 thousand as a nonrecurring
impairment of the building previously occupied as the Millersburg main office building was
recognized in 2009. FDIC deposit insurance expense decreased $56 thousand in 2010 as compared to
2009 as a result of the nonrecurring special assessment of 2009. Equipment expense decreased $42
thousand in 2010 as furniture and equipment originally purchased during construction of the
Millersburg operations center became fully depreciated in 2009. Other expenses increased $173
thousand, or 8.9%, due to increased loan collection expense related to foreclosure costs including
delinquent taxes and sales expenses on various loans secured by commercial real estate and
multifamily housing units. Noninterest expense increased $1.4 million in 2009 as compared to 2008,
due to the acquisition of Indian Village and the related expenses of operating a larger
organization, and increases in FDIC assessments in 2009. Salaries and benefits increased by $639
thousand, or 10.2%, in 2009 as compared to 2008. The increases were primarily due to the Indian

Village acquisition and normal increases in employee compensation and benefits. The number of
full-time equivalent (FTE) employees of 144 at December 31, 2009, compares to 124 FTE count prior
to the addition of Indian Village and was unchanged from December 31, 2008. Professional fees
increased due to higher legal collection costs associated with delinquent and nonperforming loans
and additional accounting costs due to the increase in size of the Company. 2010 Financial

2010 Financial Review Income Taxes The provision for income taxes amounted to $1.6
million in 2010 (effective rate 31.0%) as compared to $1.5 million in 2009 (effective rate of
31.1%), and $1.7 million in 2008 (effective rate of 32.8%). The decrease in the effective tax rate
during 2010 as compared to 2009 is due primarily to a higher percentage of tax-exempt income to
total income. FINANCIAL CONDITION Total assets of the Company were $457.1 million at
December 31, 2010, compared to $450.7 million at December 31, 2009, representing an increase of
$6.4 million or 1.4%. Net loans increased $2.2 million or 0.7%, while investment securities
increased $46 thousand or 0.1% and interest-earning deposits in other banks increased $4.6 million.
Deposits increased $24.0 million or 7.3% while other borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank
(FHLB) decreased by $22.1 million, or 49.1%. Sec urities Total investment securities increased $46
thousand, or 0.1% to $80.7 million at year-end 2010. CSBs portfolio is primarily composed of
agency mortgage-backed securities, other government agencies and corporations debt and obligations
of state and political subdivisions. Restricted securities consist primarily of FHLB stock. During
2010, increases occurred in government agency and corporation debt and state and political
subdivision securities. The Company has no exposure to government-sponsored enterprise preferred
stocks, collateralized debt obligations or trust preferred securities. The Companys municipal bond
portfolio consists of both taxable and tax-exempt general obligation and revenue bonds. As of
December 31, 2010, $9.7 million, or 80.7%, held an S&P or Moodys investment grade rating and $2.3
million or 19.3% were nonrated. The portfolio includes a broad spectrum of counties, towns,
universities and school districts in Ohio. The Company holds one nonagency collateralized mortgage
obligation whose national credit rating has declined below investment grade in 2010. However, the
bonds current factor is .25 on an original face of $2 million and there is no significant evidence
to support an adverse change in the expected cash flows. The Company has the ability and intent to
hold the bond until the recovery of its cost. Total gross unrealized security losses within the
portfolio were 0.5% of total available-for-sale securities at December 31, 2010, reflecting
interest rate fluctuations, not credit downgrades. Since one of the primary functions of the
securities portfolio is to provide a source of liquidity, it is structured such that maturities and
cash flows satisfy the Companys liquidity needs and asset/liability management requirements. Loans
Total loans increased $2.2 million, or 0.7% during 2010. Volume increases were recognized in
commercial loans of $9.1 million or 13.2% and construction loans of $2.8 million or 20.0%. These
increases were offset by a decline in residential real estate loan balances caused partially by
sale of most newly originated residential mortgages to the secondary market, and to a lesser extent
a continued soft housing market suppressing overall mortgage lending activity. Attractive interest
rates in the secondary market drove consumer demand for 1-4 family fixed rate residential mortgages
during 2010 and the Company sold $10.8 million of originated mortgages into the secondary market.
This demand for low fixed-rate mortgages included refinancing of the banks in-house mortgage
portfolio, leading to a decline in residential mortgage balances. Demand for home equity loans
continued in 2010, with balances increasing $2.6 million. However, demand for installment lending
declined as consumers continued to deleverage by paying down debt and increasing savings during
2010. Commercial loans increased with new loan originations being made in the Companys new
 market
areas acquired through the Indian Village transaction. Commercial real estate loan balances
decreased as a result of scheduled repayments and sales of property, coupled with a
lower-than-normal level of business expansions in the Companys market area. Management anticipates
the Companys local service areas will exhibit slow economic growth with modest commercial real
estate loan demand in 2011. Commercial and commercial real estate loans comprise approximately 58%
of the total loan portfolio, increasing from 57% at year-end 2009. Residential real estate
decreased from 37% to approximately 34% between December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2010.
Construction loans increased from 4.4% to 5.2% of the total portfolio between 2009 and 2010. The
Company is well within the respective regulatory guidelines for investment in construction
development and investment property loans that are not owner occupied. 2010 Annual Report

2010 Financial Review Most of the Banks lending activity is with customers
primarily located within Holmes, Tuscarawas, Wayne, and Stark Counties in Ohio. Credit
concentrations, including commitments, as determined using North American Industry Classification
Codes (NAICS), to the four largest industries compared to total loans at December 31, 2010 included
$20.2 million, or 6.4% of total loans to lessors of non-residential buildings or dwellings; $17.8
million, or 5.6% of total loans to lessors of residential real estate; $15.3 million, or 4.8% of
total loans to logging, sawmills and timber tract operations; $12.4 million, or 3.9% of total loans
to borrowers in the hotel, motel and lodging business. These loans are generally secured by real
property and equipment, and repayment is expected from operational cash flow. Credit losses arising
from the Banks lending experience in all four industries compare favorably with the Banks loss
experience on its loan portfolio as a whole. Credit evaluation is based on an evaluation of cash
flow coverage of principal and interest payments and the adequacy of the collateral received.
Nonperforming Assets, Impaired Loans and Loans Past Due 90 Days or More Nonperforming assets
consist of nonaccrual loans, loans past due 90 days and still accruing and other real estate
acquired through or in lieu of foreclosure. Other impaired loans include certain loans that are
internally classified as substandard or doubtful. Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when they
become past due 90 days or more unless they are both well secured and in the process of collection.

assets as a percentage of loans plus other real estate 1.47% 1.37% Allowance for Loan Losses The
allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered adequate to cover loan losses that
are currently anticipated based on past loss experience, general economic conditions, changes in
mix and size of the loan portfolio, information about specific borrower situations, and other
factors and estimates which are subject to change over time. Management periodically reviews
selected large loans, delinquent and other problem loans, and selected other loans. Collectibility
of these loans is evaluated by considering the current financial position and performance of the
borrower, estimated market value of the collateral, the Companys collateral position in
relationship to other creditors, guarantees and other potential sources of repayment. Management
forms judgments, which are in part subjective, as to the probability of loss and the amount of loss
on these loans as well as other loans taken together. The Banks Allowance for Loan Losses Policy
includes, among other items, provisions for classified loans and a provision for the remainder of
the portfolio based on historical data, including past charge-offs. 16 2010 Annual Report

totaled $4.0 million, or 1.28% of total loans at year-end 2010 as compared to $4.1 million or 1.29%
of total loans at year-end 2009. Net charge-offs for 2010 totaled $1.3 million as compared to net
charge-offs of $671 thousand in 2009 and net recoveries of $17 thousand in 2008. The Bank maintains
an internal watch list on which it places loans where managements analysis of the borrowers
operating results and financial condition indicates that the borrowers cash flows are inadequate
to meet its debt service requirements, and loans where there exists an increased risk that such a
shortfall may occur. Nonperforming loans, which consist of loans past due 90 days or more and
nonaccrual loans aggregated $4.6 million, or 1.45% of loans at year-end 2010 as compared to $4.1
million, or 1.3% of loans at year-end 2009. Impaired loans were $2.2 million at yearend 2010 as
compared to $2.1 million at year-end 2009. The increase in nonperforming loans reflects the rising
unemployment levels and slowdown of economic growth in the Companys market areas during the past
two years. Management has assigned loss allocations to absorb the estimated losses on these
impaired loans, and these allocations are included in the total allowance for loan losses balance.
Oth er Assets Net premises and equipment decreased $476 thousand to $7.9 million at year-end 2010
as depreciation exceeded new purchases by the Company. Other real estate owned at December 31, 2010
was $36 thousand as compared to $162 thousand owned at December 31, 2009. At December 31, 2010 the
Company recognized a net deferred tax asset of $430 thousand as compared to a net deferred tax
asset of $622 thousand at December 31, 2009. The change in the Companys net deferred tax position
resulted primarily from the decrease in the net deferred asset related to the allowance for loan
losses and the usage of the net operating loss carry forward resulting from the Indian Village
transaction. 2010 Annual Report to Shareholders | CSB Bancorp, Inc. 17

##### 



2010 Financial Review Deposits The Companys deposits are obtained primarily from
individuals and businesses located in its market area. For deposits, the Company must compete with
products offered by other financial institutions as well as other investment options such as mutual
funds. Total deposits increased $24.0 million to $353.5 million at year-end 2010 as compared to
$329.5 million at year-end 2009. Noninterest-bearing deposits increased $15.2 million, or 28.1% to
$69.1 million at year end 2010. Interest-bearing deposits increased $8.8 million or 3.2% to $284.3
million at year-end 2010. Interest-bearing demand deposits decreased $2.6 million to $55.3 million
at year-end 2010, while money market savings accounts increased by $2.6 million and traditional
savings deposits increased $5.8 million from year-end 2009. Time deposits in excess of $100,000
increased $5.5 million while other certificates of deposit decreased $2.5 million. Brokered CDs
totaling $947 thousand acquired with Indian Village matured and were paid off during 2010. Oth er
Funding Sources The Company obtains additional funds through securities sold under repurchase
agreements, overnight borrowings from the FHLB or other financial institutions and advances from
the FHLB. Securities sold under repurchase agreements increased $3.3 million, while FHLB advances
decreased $22.1 million due to maturities and required principal repayments during 2010.
CAPITAL RESOURCES Total shareholders equity increased to $47.2 million at December 31,
2010 as compared to $45.8 million at December 31, 2009. This increase was primarily due to $3.5
million net income in 2010, which was partially offset by the payment of cash dividends of $2.0
million. The Board of Directors announced a Stock Repurchase Program on July 7, 2005 that would
allow the repurchase of up to 10% of the Companys then-outstanding common shares. Repurchased
shares are to be held as treasury stock and would be available for general corporate purposes. At
December 31, 2010 approximately 41 thousand shares could still be repurchased under the current
authorized Program. No shares were repurchased in 2010 or 2009. Banking regulations have
established minimum capital ratios for banks and bank holding companies. Therefore, the Company and
the Bank must meet a risk-based capital requirement, which defines two tiers of capital and
compares each to the Companys risk-weighted assets. The Companys assets and certain
off-balance-sheet items, such as loan commitments, are each assigned a risk factor such that assets
with potentially higher credit risk will require more capital support than assets with lower risk.
These regulations require the Company to have a minimum total risk-based capital ratio of 8%, at
least half of which must be Tier 1 capital. The Companys Tier 1 capital is its shareholders
equity before any unrealized gain or loss on securities available for sale, while total risk-based
capital includes Tier 1 capital and a limited amount of the allowance for loan losses. In addition,
a bank or bank holding companys leverage ratio (which for the Company equals its shareholders
equity before any unrealized gain or loss on securities available for sale divided by average
assets) must be maintained at a minimum of 4%. The Company and Banks actual and required capital
amounts are disclosed in Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements. Dividends paid by the
Companys bank subsidiary are the primary source of funds available to the Company for payment of
dividends to shareholders and for other working capital needs. The payment of dividends by the Bank
to the Company is subject to restrictions by regulatory authorities, which generally limit
dividends to current year net income and the prior two years net retained earnings, as defined by

regulation. In addition, dividend payments generally cannot reduce regulatory capital levels below
the minimum regulatory guidelines discussed above. LIQUIDITY Liquidity refers to the
Companys ability to generate sufficient cash to fund current loan demand, meet deposit
withdrawals, pay operating expenses and meet other obligations. The Companys primary source of
liquidity is cash and cash equivalents, which totaled $48.4 million at December 31, 2010, an
increase of $5.7 million from $42.7 million at December 31, 2009. Net income, securities available
for sale, and loan repayments also serve as sources of liquidity. Cash and cash equivalents and
securities maturing within one year represent 13.7% of total assets at year-end 2010, as compared
to 15.0% of total assets at year-end 2009. Other sources of liquidity include, but are not limited
to, purchase of federal funds, advances from the FHLB, adjustments of interest rates to attract
deposits, and borrowing at the Federal Reserve discount window. Management believes that its
sources of liquidity are adequate to meet both the short-term and long-term needs of the Company.
As summarized in the consolidated statements of cash flows, the most significant investing
activities for the Company in 2010 included net loan originations of $3.8 million and the
maturities and calls of securities totaling $51.2 million, offset by $54.9 million in securities
purchases. The Companys financing activities included a $24 million increase in deposits, a $3.3
million increase in securities sold under agreements to repurchase and a $22 million net repayment
of FHLB advances. 18 2010 Annual Report to Shareholders | CSB Bancorp, Inc.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The most significant
market risk to which the Company is exposed is interest rate risk. The business of the Company and
the composition of its balance sheet consist of investments in interest-earning assets (primarily
loans and securities), which are funded by interest-bearing liabilities (deposits and borrowings).
These financial instruments have varying levels of sensitivity to changes in the market rates of
interest, resulting in market risk. None of the Companys financial instruments are held for
trading purposes. The Board of Directors establishes policies and operating limits with respect to
interest rate risk. The Company manages interest rate risk regularly through its Asset Liability
Committee. The Committee meets on a monthly basis and reviews various asset and liability
management information including, but not limited to, the Banks liquidity position, projected
sources and uses of funds, interest rate risk position and economic conditions. The Company
monitors its interest rate risk through modeling, whereby it measures potential changes in its
future earnings and the fair values of its financial instruments that may result from one or more
hypothetical changes in interest rates. This analysis is performed by estimating the expected cash
flows of the Companys financial instruments using interest rates in effect at year-end 2010 and
2009. Income simulation analysis is used to measure the sensitivity of forecasted net interest
income to changes in market rates over a one-year time horizon. The economic value of equity (EVE)
is calculated by subjecting the period-end balance sheet on a quarterly basis to changes in
interest rates and measuring the impact of the changes on the values of the assets and liabilities.
Hypothetical changes in interest rates are then applied to the financial instruments, and the cash
flows and fair values are again estimated using these hypothetical rates. For the net interest
income estimates, the hypothetical rates are applied to the financial instruments based on the
assumed cash flows. Interest rate risk policy limits are determined by measuring the anticipated
change in net interest income over a twelve month period assuming a quarterly ramped 100 and 200
basis point increase in market interest rates as compared to a stable rate environment or base
model. Due to the current low interest rate environment, particularly for short-term rates, the
decreasing change is not calculated, and instead a 300 basis point rising rate environment is
shown. Net Interest Income at Risk DECEMBER 31, 2010 CHANGE IN NET INTEREST DOLLAR

Management periodically measures and reviews the Economic Value of Equity at Risk with the Board.
At December 31, 2010, the market value of equity as a percent of base in a 200 basis point rising
rate environment indicates a decrease of 1.8%, as compared to a decrease of 4.1% as of December 31,
2009. The Company was within all Board-approved limits at December 31, 2010 and 2009.
SIGNIFICANT ASSUMPTIONS AND OTHER CONSIDERATIONS The above analysis is based on
numerous assumptions, including relative levels of market interest rates, loan prepayments and
reactions of depositors to changes in interest rates, and should not be relied upon as being
indicative of actual results. Further, the analysis does not necessarily contemplate all actions
the Company may undertake in response to changes in interest rates. U.S. Treasury securities,
obligations of U.S. Government corporations and agencies and obligations of states and political
subdivisions will generally repay at their stated maturity, or if callable prior to their final
maturity date. Mortgage backed security payments increase when interest rates are low and decrease
when interest rates rise. Many of the Companys loans permit the borrower to prepay the principal
balance prior to maturity without penalty. The likelihood of prepayment depends on a number of
factors, including current interest rate and interest rate index (if any) on the loan, the
financial ability of the borrower to refinance, the economic benefit to be obtained from
refinancing, availability of refinancing at attractive terms, as well as economic and other factors
in specific geographic areas which affect the sales and price levels of residential and commercial
property. In a changing interest rate environment, prepayments may increase or decrease on fixed
and adjustable rate loans depending on the current relative levels and expectations of future
short-term and long-term interest rates. Prepayments on adjustable rate loans generally increase
when long-term interest rates fall or are at historically low levels relative to short-term
interest rates, thus making fixed rate loans more desirable. While savings and checking deposits
generally may be withdrawn upon the customers request without prior notice, a continuing
relationship with customers resulting in future deposits and withdrawals is generally predictable,
resulting in a dependable and uninterrupted source of funds. Time deposits generally have early
withdrawal penalties, which discourage customer withdrawal prior to maturity. Short-term borrowings
have fixed maturities. Certain advances from the FHLB carry prepayment penalties and are expected
to be repaid in accordance with their contractual terms. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The
Company discloses the estimated fair value of its financial instruments at December 31, 2010 and
2009 in Note 16 to the consolidated financial statements. 2010 Financial Review 20 2010

$22,983 As indicated in the preceding table, the Bank had $76.0 million in total loan commitments
at the end of 2010, with $44 million of that amount expiring within one year. All lines-of-credit
represent either fee-paid or legally binding loan commitments for the loan categories noted.
Letters of credit are also included in the amounts noted in the table since the Bank requires that
each letter of credit be supported by a loan agreement. The commercial and consumer lines represent
both unsecured and secured obligations. The real estate lines are secured by mortgages on
residential and nonresidential property. It is anticipated that a significant portion of these
lines will expire without being drawn upon. The following table summarizes the Companys other
contractual obligations, exclusive of interest, as of December 31, 2010: PAYMENT DUE BY

The other borrowings noted in the preceding table represent borrowings from the Federal Home Loan
Bank of Cincinnati. The notes require payment of interest on a monthly basis with principal due in
monthly installments or at maturity, depending upon the issue. The obligations bear stated fixed
interest rates and stipulate a prepayment penalty if the notes interest rate exceeds the current
market rate for similar borrowings at the time of repayment. As the notes mature, the Bank
evaluates the liquidity and interest rate circumstances at that time to determine whether to pay
off or renew the note. The evaluation process typically includes the strength of current and
projected customer loan demand, the Banks federal funds sold or purchased position, projected cash
flows from maturing investment securities, the current and projected market interest rate
environment, local and national economic conditions, and customer demand for the Banks deposit
product offerings. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Companys consolidated financial
statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and follow
general practices within the commercial banking industry. Application of these principles requires
management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the
financial statements. These estimates, assumptions, and judgments are based upon the information
available as of the date of the financial statements. The most significant accounting policies
followed by the Company are presented in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. These
policies, along with the other disclosures presented in the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements and the 2010 Financial Review, provide information about how significant assets and
liabilities are valued in the financial statements and how those values are determined. Management

2010 Financial Review securities and the allowance for loan losses as the accounting
areas that require the most subjective and complex estimates, assumptions, and judgments and, as
such, could be the most subject to revision as new information becomes available. Securities are
evaluated periodically to determine whether a decline in their value is other-than-temporary.
Management uses criteria such as the magnitude and duration of the decline, in addition to the
reasons underlying the decline, to determine whether the loss in value is other-than-temporary. The
term other-than-temporary is not intended to indicate that the decline is permanent, but
indicates that the prospect for a near-term recovery of value is not necessarily favorable, or that
there is a lack of evidence to support a realizable value equal to or greater than the carrying
value of the investment. Once a decline in value is determined to be other-than-temporary, the
value of the security is reduced and a corresponding charge to earnings is recognized. As
previously noted in the section entitled Allowance for Loan Losses, management performs analysis to
assess the adequacy of its allowance for loan losses. This analysis encompasses a variety of
factors including the potential loss exposure for individually reviewed loans, the historical loss
experience, the volume of nonperforming loans (i.e., loans in nonaccrual status or past due 90 days
or more), the volume of loans past due, any significant changes in lending or loan review staff, an
evaluation of current and future local and national economic conditions, any significant changes in
the volume or mix of loans within each category, a review of the significant concentrations of
credit, and any legal, competitive, or regulatory concerns. IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING
PRICES The consolidated financial statements and related data presented herein have been
prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, requiring measurement of
financial position and results of operations primarily in terms of historical dollars without
considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. Unlike
most industrial companies, most assets and liabilities of the Company are monetary in nature.
Therefore, interest rates have a more significant impact on the Companys performance than the
effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same
direction or in the same magnitude as prices of goods and services. The liquidity, maturity
structure and quality of the Companys assets and liabilities are critical to maintenance of
acceptable performance levels. COMMON STOCK AND SHAREHOLDER INFORMATION Common shares
of the Company are not traded on an established market. Shares are traded through broker/dealers
under the symbol CSBB.OB and through private transactions. The table below represents the range
of high and low prices paid for transactions known to the Company. Management does not have
knowledge of prices paid on all transactions. Because of the lack of an established market, these
prices may not reflect the prices at which stock would trade in an active market. These quotations
reflect interdealer prices, without mark-up, markdown or commission and may not represent actual
transactions. The table specifies cash dividends declared by the Company to its shareholders during
2010 and 2009. No assurances can be given that future dividends will be declared, or if declared,
what the amount of any such dividends will be. Additional information concerning restrictions over
the payment of dividends is included in Note 12 of the consolidated financial statements.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies CSB Bancorp, Inc. (the Company or CSB)
was incorporated in 1991 in the State of Ohio, and is a registered bank holding company. The
Companys wholly-owned subsidiaries are The Commercial and Savings Bank (the Bank) and CSB
Investment Services, LLC. The Company, through its subsidiaries, operates in one industry segment:
the commercial banking industry. The Bank, an Ohio-chartered bank organized in 1879, provides
financial services through its fourteen Banking Centers located in Holmes, Tuscarawas, Wayne and
Stark Counties and nearby communities. These communities are the source of substantially all
deposit, loan and trust activities. The majority of the Banks income is derived from commercial
and retail lending activities and investments in securities. Its primary deposit products are
checking, savings, and term certificate of deposit accounts, and its primary lending products are
residential mortgage, commercial and installment loans. Substantially, all loans are secured by
specific items of collateral including business assets, consumer assets and real estate. Commercial
loans are expected to be repaid from cash flow from operations of the business. Real estate loans
are secured by both residential and commercial real estate. Significant accounting policies
followed by the Company are presented below. USE OF ESTIMATES IN PREPARING FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS In preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the Consolidated Balance
Sheets and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during each reporting period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates. The most significant estimates susceptible to change in the near
term relate to managements determination of the allowance for loan losses and the fair value of
financial instruments. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Bank has
established a trust department, and the assets held by the Bank in fiduciary or agency capacities
for its customers are not included in the consolidated balance sheets as such items are not assets
of the Bank. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS For purposes of the Consolidated Statements of
Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks, and federal
funds sold which mature overnight or within three days. CASH RESERVE REQUIREMENTS The
Bank is required by the Federal Reserve to maintain reserves consisting of cash on hand and
noninterest-earning balances on deposit with the Federal Reserve Bank. The required reserve balance
at December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $400,000. SECURITIES Securities designated as
available-for-sale are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses on such securities,
net of applicable income taxes, recognized as other comprehensive income (loss). The amortized cost
of debt securities is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity
based on the interest method. Such amortization and accretion is included in interest and dividends
on securities. The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati and as such, is
required to maintain a minimum investment in stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank that varies with
the level of advances outstanding with Federal Home Loan Bank. The stock is bought from and sold to
the Federal Home Loan Bank based upon its $100 par value. The stock does not have a readily
determinable fair value and as such is classified as restricted stock, carried at cost and
evaluated for impairment by management. The stocks value is determined by the ultimate
reco
verability of the par value rather than by recognizing temporary declines. The determination of
whether the par value will ultimately be recovered is influenced by criteria such as the following:
(a) the significance of the decline in net assets of the Federal Home Loan Bank as compared to the
capital stock amount and the length of time this situation has persisted; (b) commitments by the
Federal Home Loan Bank to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such
payments in relation to the operating performance; (c) the impact of legislative and regulatory
changes on the customer base of the Federal Home Loan Bank; and (d) the liquidity position of the
Federal Home Loan Bank. While the Federal Home Loan Banks have been negatively impacted by the
current economic conditions, the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati has reported profits for 2010
and 2009, remains in compliance with regulatory capital and liquidity requirements, continues to
pay dividends on the stock and make redemptions at par value. With consideration given to these
factors, management concluded that the stock was not impaired at December 31, 2010 or 2009. 30

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Gains and losses on sales of securities are
accounted for on a trade date basis, using the specific identification method and are included in
noninterest income. Securities are periodically reviewed for other-than-temporary impairment based
upon a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the length of time and extent to which the
market value has been less than cost, the financial condition of the underlying issuer, the ability
of the issuer to meet contractual obligations, the likelihood of the securitys ability to recover
any decline in its market value and managements intent and ability to hold the security for a
period of time sufficient to allow for a recovery in market value. Among the factors that are
considered in determining managements intent and ability is a review of the Companys capital
adequacy, interest rate risk position and liquidity. The assessment of a securitys ability to
recover any decline in market value, the ability of the issuer to meet contractual obligations and
managements intent and ability require considerable judgment. A decline in value that is
considered to be other-than-temporary is recorded as a loss within noninterest income in the
consolidated statement of income. LOANS Loans that management has the intent and
ability to hold for the foreseeable future, or until maturity or pay-off, generally are stated at
their outstanding principal amount, adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses and any
deferred loan fees or costs on originated loans. Interest is accrued based upon the daily
outstanding principal balance. Loan origination fees and certain direct origination costs are
capitalized and recognized as an adjustment of the yield over the life of the related loan.
Interest income is not reported when full repayment is in doubt, typically when the loan is
impaired or payments are past due over 90 days. All interest accrued but not collected for loans
that are placed on nonaccrual or charged-off is reversed against interest income. The interest on
these loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return
to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts
contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured. ALLOWANCE
FOR LOAN LOSSES The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have
occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to income. Loan losses are charged against the
allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent
recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a
regular basis by management and is based upon managements periodic review of the collectibility of
the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse
situations that may affect the borrowers ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying
collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it
requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes
available. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is
probable that the Bank will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest
when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management
in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of
collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant
payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management
determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis,
taking into consideration all of the
 circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including
the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrowers prior payment record and the
amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a
loan-by-loan basis for commercial, commercial real estate, and construction loans by either the
present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loans effective interest rate, the
loans obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral
dependent. Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for
impairment. Accordingly, the Bank does not separately identify individual consumer and residential
loans for impairment disclosures. OTHER REAL ESTATE OWNED Other real estate acquired
through or in lieu of foreclosure is initially recorded at fair value, less estimated costs to sell
and any loan balance in excess of fair value is charged to the allowance for loan losses.
Subsequent valuations are periodically performed and write-downs are included in other operating
expense, as are gains or losses upon sale and expenses related to maintenance of the properties.
Other real estate owned amounted to $36,300 and $162,200 at December 31, 2010 and 2009,
respectively. PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT Premises and equipment is stated at cost less
accumulated depreciation and amortization. Upon the sale or disposition of the assets, the
difference between the depreciated cost and proceeds is charged or credited to income. Depreciation
and amortization is determined based on the estimated useful lives of the individual assets
(typically 20 to 40 years for buildings and 3 to 10 years for equipment) and is computed using both
accelerated and straight-line methods. 2010 Annual Report to Shareholders |

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies GOODWILL AND CORE DEPOSIT INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested at least annually for impairment, in the fourth
quarter or more frequently if indicators of impairment are present. The evaluation for impairment
involves comparing the estimated current fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value,
including goodwill. If the estimated current fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying
value, no additional testing is required and an impairment loss is not recorded. CSB uses market
capitalization and multiples of tangible book value methods to determine the estimated current fair
value of its reporting unit. Based on this analysis no impairment was recorded in 2010 or 2009. The
core deposit intangible assets are assigned useful lives, which are amortized on a straight-line
basis over their weighted average lives. The Company periodically reviews the intangible asset for
impairment as events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets
may not be recoverable. MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS Mortgage servicing rights (MSRs)
represent the right to service loans for third party investors. MSRs are recognized as a separate
asset upon the sale of mortgage loans to a third party investor with the servicing rights retained
by CSB. Originated MSRs are recorded at allocated fair value at the time of the sale of the loans
to the third party investor. MSRs are amortized in proportion to and over the estimated period of
net servicing income. MSRs are carried at amortized cost less a valuation allowance for impairment,
if any. MSRs are evaluated on a discounted earnings basis to determine the present value of future
earnings of the underlying serviced mortgages. All assumptions are reviewed annually or more
frequently if necessary and adjusted to reflect current and anticipated market conditions.
BANK-OWNED LIFE INSURANCE The cash surrender value of these policies is included as an
asset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and any increases in the cash surrender value are recorded
as noninterest income on the Consolidated Statements of Income. In the event of the death of an
insured individual under these policies, the Company would receive a death benefit, which would be
recorded as noninterest income. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS Substantially all securities sold
under repurchase agreements represent amounts advanced by various customers. Securities owned by
the Bank are pledged to cover those obligations, which are not deposits and not covered by federal
deposit insurance. ADVERTISING COSTS All advertising costs are expensed as incurred.
Advertising expenses amounted to $169 thousand, $180 thousand, and $195 thousand for the years
ended 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES The Company and its
subsidiaries file a consolidated tax return. Deferred income taxes are provided on temporary
differences between financial statement and income tax reporting. Temporary differences are
differences between the amounts of assets and liabilities reported for financial statement purposes
and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are recognized for temporary differences that will be
deductible in future years tax returns and for operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.
Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if it is deemed more likely than not that
some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax liabilities are
recognized for temporary differences that will be taxable in future years tax returns. The Bank is
domiciled in Ohio and is not currently subject to state or local income taxes. STOCK-BASED
COMPENSATION The Company sponsors a stock-based compensation plan, administered by a
committee, under which incentive stock options may be granted periodically to certain employees.
The Company recorded no such compensation expense for 2010, and $8 thousand and $15 thousand f
or
the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The total income tax benefit recognized
in the accompanying consolidated statements of income related to stock-based compensation was $2
thousand and $5 thousand in 2009 and 2008, respectively, with no tax benefit recognized in 2010.
Shares issued in connection with stock option exercises may be issued from available treasury
shares or from market purchases. The expense is computed using option pricing models, using the
following weighted-average assumptions as of grant date. 20 1 0 2009 2008 Risk-free

##### 



Summary of Significant Accounting Policies As of December 31, 2010, there was no
unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested share-based compensation awards granted. All
shares are vested. Options are granted to certain employees at prices equal to the market value of
the stock on the date the options are granted. The 2002 Plan authorized the issuance of 75,000
shares. The Plan was amended April 27, 2005 to authorize the issuance of 200,000 shares. The time
period during which any option is exercisable under the Plan is determined by the committee but
shall not continue beyond the expiration of ten years after the date the option is awarded. The
fair value of each option is amortized into compensation expense on a straight-line basis between
the grant date for the option and each vesting date. CSB estimates the fair value of stock options
on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The model requires the use
of numerous assumptions, many of which are highly subjective in nature. There were no new option
grants for the year ended December 31, 2010 and 1,000 and 2,000 shares of CSB common stock were
granted for the years 2009 and 2008, respectively. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME The Company
includes recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses in net income. Although certain changes in
assets and liabilities such as unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are
reported as a separate component of the equity section of the balance sheet, such items, along with
net income, are components of comprehensive income. TRANSFERS OF FINANCIAL ASSETS
Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales when control over the assets has
been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets
have been isolated from the Company, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that
constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and
(3) the Bank does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement
to repurchase them prior to their maturity. PER SHARE DATA Basic net income per share
is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each
year. Diluted income per common share includes the dilutive effect of additional potential common
shares issuable under stock options. The weighted average numbers of common shares outstanding for
basic and diluted earnings per share computations were as follows: 2010 2009 2008
Weighted average common shares outstanding 2,980,602 2,980,602 2,719,922 Average treasury
shares (245,803) (245,803) (237,587) Total weighted average common shares outstanding (basic)
2,734,799 2,734,799 2,482,335 Dilutive effect of assumed exercise of stock options    Weighted
average common shares outstanding (diluted) 2,734,799 2,734,799 2,482,335 Dividends per share are
based on the number of shares outstanding at the declaration date. There were 39,945 stock options
to purchase common stock for $15.00 to $18.00 per share that were antidilutive at December 31,
2010. There were 40,195 stock options to purchase common stock for $15.00 to $18.00 per share that
were antidilutive at December 31, 2009, and there were 40,720 stock options to purchase common
stock for $16.05 to $19.00 per share that were antidilutive at December 31, 2008. ACCOUNTING
DEVELOPMENTS In December 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2009-16, Accounting for Transfer of Financial Assets. ASU
2009-16 provides guidance to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness, and
comparability of the information that an entity provides in its financial statements about a
transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial
performance, and cash flows; and a transferors cont
inuing involvement, if any, in transferred
financial assets. ASU 2009-16 is effective for annual periods beginning after November 15, 2009 and
for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this guidance did not have a
material impact on the Companys financial position or results of operation. 2010 Annual
Report to Shareholders | CSB Bancorp, Inc. 33

##### 



Summary of Significant Accounting Policies In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No.
2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair
Value Measurements. ASU 2010-06 amends Subtopic 820-10 to clarify existing disclosures, require new
disclosures, and includes conforming amendments to guidance on employers disclosures about
postretirement benefit plan assets. ASU 2010- 06 is effective for interim and annual periods
beginning after December 15, 2009, except for disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and
settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures
are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and for interim periods within
those fiscal years. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on
the Companys financial statements. In July 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20, Receivables (Topic
310): Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit
Losses. ASU 2010-20 is intended to provide additional information to assist financial statement
users in assessing an entitys credit risk exposures and evaluating the adequacy of its allowance
for credit losses. The 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. The amendments in ASU 2010-20 encourage, but do not
require, comparative disclosures for earlier reporting periods that ended before initial adoption.
However, an entity should provide comparative disclosures for those reporting periods ending after
initial adoption. The required disclosures are included in Note 2. In August 2010, the FASB issued
ASU 2010-21, Accounting for Technical Amendments to Various SEC Rules and Schedules. This ASU
amends various SEC paragraphs pursuant to the issuance of Release No. 33-9026: Technical Amendments
to Rules, Forms, Schedules, and Codification of Financial Reporting Policies and is not expected to
have a significant impact on the Companys financial statements. In August 2010, the FASB issued
ASU 2010-22, Technical Corrections to SEC Paragraphs  An announcement made by the staff of the
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. This ASU amends various SEC paragraphs based on external
comments received and the issuance of SAB 112, which amends or rescinds portions of certain SAB
topics and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Companys financial statements. In
December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-28, When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test
for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts. This ASU modifies Step 1 of the
goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those
reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is
more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. In determining whether it is more likely
than not that a goodwill impairment exists, an entity should consider whether there are any adverse
qualitative factors indicating an impairment may exist. The qualitative factors are consistent with
the existing guidance, which requires that goodwill of a reporting unit be tested for impairment
between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not
reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. For public entities, the
amendments in this update are effective for fiscal year, and interim periods within those years,
beginning after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is not permitted. For nonpublic entities, the
amendments are effective for fiscal ye
ars, and interim periods within those years, beginning after
December 15, 2011. Nonpublic entities may early adopt the amendments using the effective date for
public entities. This ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Companys financial
statements. In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-29, Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma
Information for Business Combinations. The amendments in this update specify that if a public
entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings
of the combined entity as though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current year
had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. The
amendments also expand the supplemental pro forma disclosures under Topic 805 to include a
description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly
attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings.
The amendments in this update are effective prospectively for business combinations for which the
acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or
after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. This ASU is not expected to have a
significant impact on the Companys financial statements. RECLASSIFICATION OF COMPARATIVE
AMOUNTS Certain comparative amounts from the prior years have been reclassified to conform to
current year classifications. Such classifications had no effect on net income or shareholders
equity. 34 2010 Annual Report to Shareholders | CSB Bancorp, Inc.

unrealized loss position at December 31, 2010, one (1) of which was in a continuous loss position
for twelve months or more. At least quarterly, the Company conducts a comprehensive security-level
impairment assessment. The assessments are based on the nature of the securities, the extent and
duration of the securities, the extent and duration of the loss, managements intent to sell, or if
it is more likely than not that management will be required to sell a security before recovery of
its amortized cost basis, which may be maturity. Management believes the Company will fully recover
the cost of these securities and it does not intend to sell these securities and likely will not be
required to sell them before the anticipated recovery of the remaining amortized cost basis, which
may be maturity. As a result, management concluded that these securities were not
other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2010 and has recognized the total amount of the
impairment in other comprehensive income, net of tax. 2010 Annual Report to Shareholders

Origination/Risk Management The Company has certain lending policies and procedures in place that
are designed to maximize loan income within an acceptable level of risk. Management reviews and
approves these policies and procedures on a regular basis. A reporting system supplements the
review process by providing management with frequent reports related to loan production, loan
quality, concentrations of credit, loan delinquencies and non-performing and potential problem
loans. Diversification in the loan portfolio is a means of managing risk associated with
fluctuations in economic conditions. Commercial and industrial loans are underwritten after
evaluating and understanding the borrowers ability to operate profitably and prudently expand its
business. Underwriting standards are designed to promote relationship banking rather than
transactional banking. The Companys management examines current and occasionally projected cash
flows to determine the ability of the borrower to repay his obligations as agreed. Commercial and
industrial loans are primarily made based on the identified cash flows of the borrower and
secondarily on the underlying collateral provided by the borrower. The cash flows of borrowers,
however, may not be as expected, and the collateral securing these loans may fluctuate in value.
Most commercial and industrial loans are secured by the assets being financed or other business
assets such as accounts receivable or inventory and may incorporate a personal guarantee; however,
some short-term loans may be made on an unsecured basis. In the case of loans secured by accounts
receivable, the availability of funds for the repayment of these loans may be substantially
dependent on the ability of the borrower to collect amounts due from its customers. Commercial real
estate loans are subject to underwriting standards and processes similar to commercial and
industrial loans, in addition to those of real estate loans. These loans are viewed primarily as
cash flow loans and secondarily as loans secured by real estate. Commercial real estate lending
typically involves higher loan principal amounts, and the repayment of these loans is generally
largely dependent on the successful operation of the property securing the loan or the business
conducted on the property securing the loan. Commercial real estate loans may be more adversely
affected by conditions in the real estate markets or in the general economy. The properties
securing the Companys commercial real estate portfolio are diverse in terms of type. This
diversity helps reduce the Companys exposure to adverse economic events that affect any single
market or industry. Management monitors and evaluates commercial real estate loans based on
collateral, geography and risk grade criteria. In addition, management tracks the level of
owner-occupied commercial real estate loans versus nonowner occupied loans. At December 31, 2010
approximately 87% of the outstanding principal balance of the Companys commercial real estate
loans was secured by owner-occupied properties. With respect to loans to developers and builders
that are secured by nonowner occupied properties, the Company generally requires the borrower to
have had an existing relationship with the Company and have a proven record of success.
Construction loans are underwritten using independent appraisal reviews, sensitivity analysis of
absorption and lease rates and financial analysis of the developers and property owners.
Construction loans
 are generally based upon estimates of costs and value associated with the
completed project. These estimates may be inaccurate. Construction loans often involve the
disbursement of substantial funds with repayment substantially dependent on the success of the
ultimate project. Sources or repayment for these types of loans may be precommitted permanent loans
from approved long-term lenders, sales of developed property or an interim loan commitment from the
Company until permanent financing is obtained. These loans are closely monitored by on-site
inspections and are considered to have higher risks than other real estate loans due to their
ultimate repayment being sensitive to interest rate changes, governmental regulation of real
property, general economic conditions and the availability of long-term financing. 38 2010

NOTE 2  LOANS (CONTINUED) The Company originates consumer loans using a judgmental
underwriting process. To monitor and manage consumer loan risk, policies and procedures are
developed and modified, as needed, jointly by line and staff personnel. This activity, coupled with
relatively small loan amounts spread across many individual borrowers, minimizes risk. The Company
maintains an independent loan review department that reviews and validates the credit risk program
on a periodic basis. Results of these reviews are presented to management. The loan review process
complements and reinforces the risk identification and assessment decisions made by lenders and
credit personnel, as well as the Companys policies and procedures. Concentrations Of Credit Nearly
all of the Companys lending activity occurs within the State of Ohio, including the four counties
of Holmes, Stark, Tuscarawas and Wayne, as well as other markets. The majority of the Companys
loan portfolio consists of owner occupied commercial real estate and commercial loans. As of
December 31, 2010 and 2009, there were no concentrations of loans related to any single industry in
excess of 6.2% of total loans. The following table represents a summary of the activity in the

debt restructurings of $4.1 million as of December 31, 2010, with $22 thousand of specific reserves
allocated to customers whose loan terms have been modified in troubled debt restructurings. Credit
Quality Indicators The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information
about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as current financial information,
historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic
trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes commercial loans individually by classifying the
loans as to credit risk. This analysis includes commercial loans with an outstanding balance
greater than $275 thousand and is performed on an annual basis. The Company uses the following
definitions for risk ratings: Pass. Loans classified as pass (Acceptable, Low Acceptable or Pass
Watch) may exhibit a wide array of characteristics but at minimum represent an acceptable risk to
the Bank. Borrowers in this rating may have leveraged but acceptable balance sheet positions,
satisfactory asset quality, stable to favorable sales and earnings trends, acceptable liquidity,
and adequate cash flow. Loans are considered fully collectible and require an average amount of
administration. While generally adhering to credit policy, these loans may exhibit occasional
exceptions that do not result in undue risk to the Bank. Borrowers are generally capable of
absorbing setbacks, financial and otherwise, without the threat of failure. Special Mention. Loans
classified as special mention have material weaknesses that deserve managements close attention.
If left uncorrected, these weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for
the loan at some future date. Substandard. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately
protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged,
if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the
liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution
will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful. Loans classified as
doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added
characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of
currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. Loans that do
not meet the criteria for special mention, substandard or doubtful classification, when analyzed
individually as part of the above described process are considered to be pass rated loans. Loans
listed as not rated are either less than $275 thousand or are included in groups of homogeneous
loans. As of December 31, 2010, and based on the most recent analysis performed, the risk category
of loans by class of loans is as follows: Commercial $6,515 $3,978 $9,252 $  $58,795 $78,540

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements NOTE 2  LOANS (CONTINUED) Mortgage Servicing Rights For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had outstanding
mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) of $155 thousand and $138 thousand, respectively. No valuation
allowance was recorded at December 31, 2010 or 2009 as the fair value of the MSRs exceeded their
carrying value. On December 31, 2010, the Company had $43.2 million residential mortgage loans with
servicing retained as compared to $38.0 million with servicing retained at December 31, 2009.
NOTE 3  BUSINESS COMBINATION After the close of business, on October 31, 2008, CSB
completed the acquisition of Indian Village Bancorp Inc. (Indian Village). Indian Village
operated as a thrift holding company with three branch offices located in Tuscarawas and Stark
counties in north central Ohio. The primary reasons for the merger with Indian Village were to
enhance shareholder value, to improve CSBs competitive position in the financial services industry
and to further expand its existing branch network in Ohio. The Companys 2008 Consolidated
Financial Statements include the results of operation of Indian Village after October 31, 2008, the
date of acquisition. The aggregate purchase price for Indian Village was approximately $8.1 million
and was consummated through the exchange of a combination of CSB common stock at a rate of 0.7611
shares for each Indian Village share outstanding and $4.375 per share in cash. The acquisition was
completed through the issuance of 312,816 shares of CSB newly issued common stock and the payment
of $2.2 million in cash inclusive of the $430 thousand paid for Indian Villages outstanding stock
options, 401(k) and specified shares of ESOP stock. Direct costs of $194 thousand were accounted
for as part of the purchase price and included in goodwill associated with the merger. Following is
a reconciliation of the purchase price allocation: FAIR VALUE OF NET ASSETS ACQUIRED

The pro forma results include amortization of fair value adjustments on loans, deposits, and
other borrowings, and amortization of newly created intangible assets and post-merger acquisition
related expenses. The pro forma results for 2008 also include certain non-recurring items including
additional compensation and severance benefits, professional fees, and deconversion costs that were
expensed as incurred at Indian Village prior to the acquisition and do not represent ongoing costs
of the fully integrated combined organization. The pro forma results presented do not reflect cost

amounted to $527 thousand, $630 thousand, and $586 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2010,
2009, and 2008, respectively. NOTE 5  GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS Goodwill
Goodwill totaled $1.7 million at December 31, 2010 and 2009, all of which related to the
acquisition of Indian Village during 2008 (see Note 3  Business Combination). In 2009, the
increase in goodwill relates to subsequent revisions of preacquisition estimates and assumptions
recorded in 2008, which have resulted in adjustments to goodwill as a result of purchase accounting
adjustments in connection with the Indian Village acquisition. The following table shows a roll

liabilities at December 31, 2010 and 2009 are as follows: (Dollars in thousands) 2010
2009 Allowance for loan losses $1,244 $1,472 Net operating loss carryforward 855 984
Capital loss carryforward 35 35 Other 81 84 2,215 2,575 Valuation allowance on deferred tax assets

Federal Home Loan Bank stock dividends (736) (736) Deferred loan fees (90) (81) Unrealized gain on
securities available for sale (449) (550) Prepaid FDIC assessments (110) (205) Other (221) (120)
Deferred tax liabilities (1,750) (1,918) Net deferred tax asset $430 $622 The Company acquired
net operating loss tax carryforwards of approximately $3,335,000 and a capital loss carryforward of
$274,000 in 2008, using $379,000 during 2010 and 2009 and $63,000 of the net operating loss during
2008, respectively. The net operating loss carryforward can be used to offset future taxable income
and will begin to expire in tax years 2021 through 2027. The capital loss carryforward expired in
2009. The Company believes it is more likely than not that the benefit of deferred tax assets will
be realized with the possible exception of the capital loss carryforward due to expire in 2014. A
valuation allowance for the capital loss carryforward is reflected at December 31, 2010. No
additional valuation allowance is deemed necessary in view of certain tax strategies, coupled with
the anticipated future taxable income as evidenced by the Companys earnings potential. The Company
adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 740, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. ASC Topic 740
prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement
recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.
Benefits from tax positions should be recognized in the financial statements only when it is
more-likely-than-not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate
taxing authority that would have full knowledge of all relevant information. A tax position that
meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is measured at the largest amount of benefit
that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions
that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized
in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met. Previously
recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should
be derecognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no
longer met. ASC Topic 740 also provides guidance on the accounting for and disclosure of
unrecognized tax benefits, interest and penalties. Adoption of ASC Topic 740 did not have a
significant impact on the Companys financial statements. In accordance with ASC Topic 740,
interest or penalties incurred for income taxes will be recorded as a component of income tax
expense. NOTE 9  EMPLOYEE BENEFITS The Company sponsors a contributory 401(k)
profit-sharing plan covering substantially all employees who meet certain age and service
requirements. The Plan permits investing in the Companys common stock subject to various
limitations and provides for discretionary profit sharing and matching contributions. The
discretionary profit sharing contribution is determined annually by the Board of Directors and
amounted to 2.50% of each eligible participants compensation for 2010 and 2009 and 2.75% of each
eligible participants compensation for 2008, respectively. The Plan also provides for a 50%
Company match of participant
 contributions up to a maximum of 2% of each participants annual
compensation. Expense under the Plan amounted to approximately $199,200, $229,700 and $214,300 for
2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively. No stock options were granted in 2010. During 2009, the Board
of Directors extended options to purchase 1,000 shares originally expiring in 2009 through August
2014 at an exercise price of $15.00. During 2008, the Board of Directors extended options to
purchase 2,000 shares originally expiring in 2008 through July 2013 at an exercise price of $16.10.

and 2008. There were no share awards vested in 2010. The total fair value of share awards vested
was $8,900 in 2009 and $17,179 in 2008. NOTE 10  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE
SHEET RISK The Bank is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the
normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments
are primarily loan commitments to extend credit and letters of credit. These instruments involve,
to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the consolidated
balance sheets. The contract amount of these instruments reflects the extent of involvement the
Bank has in these financial instruments. The Banks exposure to credit loss in the event of the
nonperformance by the other party to the financial instruments for loan commitments to extend
credit and letters of credit is represented by the contractual amounts of these instruments. The
Bank uses the same credit policies in making loan commitments as it does for on-balance sheet
loans. The following financial instruments whose contract amount represents credit risk were
outstanding at December 31, 2010 and 2009: CONTRACT AMOUNT 2010 2009 Commitments
to extend credit $74,715 $66,211 Letters of credit $1,302 $1,213 Notes to Consolidated

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements NOTE 10  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH
OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK (CONTINUED) Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a
customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments
generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a
fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total
commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each
customers credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral, obtained if deemed
necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on managements credit evaluation of the
customer. The type of collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable; recognized
inventory; property, plant and equipment; and income-producing commercial properties. Letters of
credit are written conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a
customer to a third party and are reviewed for renewal at expiration. All letters of credit
outstanding at December 31, 2010 are due on demand or expire in 2011. The credit risk involved in
issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers.
The Bank requires collateral supporting these commitments when deemed appropriate. NOTE 11 -
RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS In the ordinary course of business, loans are granted by the Bank
to executive officers, directors and their related business interests consistent with Federal
Reserve Regulation O. The following is an analysis of activity of related-party loans for the year
ending December 31, 2010: 2010 Balance at beginning of year $4,929 New loans and
advances 226 Repayments, including loans sold (839) Balance at end of year $4,316 Deposits from
executive officers, directors and their related business interests at December 31, 2010 and 2009
were approximately $10,221,000 and $11,262,000, respectively. NOTE 12  REGULATORY MATTERS
The Company (on a consolidated basis) and Bank are subject to various regulatory capital
requirements administered by the federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum
capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions
by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Companys and Banks
financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt
corrective action, the Company and Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve
quantitative measures of the assets, liabilities, and certain off-balancesheet items as calculated
under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to
qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and
Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of total and Tier 1
capital (as defined in the regulations) to riskweighted assets (as defined), and of Tier 1 capital
to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, that the
Company and Bank met or exceeded all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject. As of
December 31, 2010, the most recent notification from federal and state banking agencies categorized
the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be
categorized as well capitalized an institution must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1
risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the following tables. There are no known
conditions or events since that notification that Management believes have changed the Banks


category. (Dollars in thousands) 48 2010 Annual Report to Shareholders |

21,874 5.0 Bank 41,586 9.5 17,491 4.0 21,864 5.0 The Companys primary source of funds with which
to pay dividends, is dividends received from the Bank. The payment of dividends by the Bank to the
Company is subject to restrictions by its regulatory agencies. These restrictions generally limit
dividends to current year net income and prior two years net retained earnings. Also, dividends may
not reduce capital levels below the minimum regulatory requirements disclosed in the prior table.
Under these provisions, at January 1, 2011, the Bank could dividend $3,747,000 to the Company. The
Company does not anticipate the financial need to obtain this approval due to its current cash
balances and ability to access the credit markets. Federal law prevents the Company from borrowing
from the Bank unless loans are secured by specific obligations. Further, such secured loans are
limited to an amount not exceeding ten percent of the Banks common stock and capital surplus.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements NOTE 14  OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

197 Other comprehensive income (loss) $ (195) $924 $383 NOTE 15  FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company provides disclosures about assets and liabilities carried at fair value. The
framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used
to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in
active markets for identical assets or liabilities and lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The
three broad levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below: Level I: Inputs to the
valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active
markets that the Company has the ability to access. Level II: Inputs to the valuation methodology
include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for
identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets; inputs other than quoted prices
that are observable for the asset or liability; inputs that are derived principally from or
corroborated by observable market data or other means including certified appraisals. If the asset
or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level II input must be observable for
substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level III: Inputs to the valuation
methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. The following table
presents the assets reported on the consolidated statements of financial condition at their fair
value as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, by level within the fair value hierarchy. No liabilities
are carried at fair value. As required by the accounting standards, financial assets and
liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant
to the fair value measurement. Equity securities and U.S. Treasury Notes are valued at the closing
price reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded. Obligations of
U.S. government corporations and agencies, mortgage-backed securities and obligations of states and
political subdivisions are valued at observable market data for similar assets. 2010

consolidated balance sheets at their fair value as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, by level within
the fair value hierarchy. Impaired loans and other real estate that are collateral dependent are
written down to fair value through the establishment of specific reserves. Premises include a
building currently used for storage that has been written down to appraised value. Techniques used
to value the collateral that secure the impaired loans include quoted market prices for identical
assets classified as Level I inputs; observable inputs, employed by certified appraisers, for
similar assets classified as Level II inputs. In cases where valuation techniques included inputs
that are unobservable and are based on estimates and assumptions developed by management based on
the best information available under each circumstance, the asset valuation is classified as Level
III inputs. The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on a valuation model that
calculates the present value of estimated net servicing income. The valuation model incorporates
discounted cash flow and repayment assumptions based on managements best judgment. As a result,
these rights are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and are classified within Level III
of the fair value hierarchy. (Dollars in thousands) Level I Level II Level III Total

borrowings 22,909 23,042 45,010 46,535 Accrued Interest Payable 213 213 322 322 For purposes of the
above disclosures of estimated fair value, the following assumptions are used: Cash and cash
equivalents; Accrued interest receivable; Short-term borrowings, Accrued interest payable The fair
value of the above instruments is considered to be carrying value. Securities The fair values of
securities available-for-sale which are measured on a recurring basis are determined primarily by
obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges or matrix pricing, which is a
mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying
exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on securities
relationship to other similar securities. Loans The fair value for loans is estimated by
discounting future cash flows using current market inputs at which loans with similar terms and
qualities would be made to borrowers of similar credit quality. Where quoted market prices were
available, primarily for certain residential mortgage loans, such market rates were used as
estimates for fair value. Fair value of nonaccrual loans is based on carrying value. Deposits and
other borrowed funds The fair values of certificates of deposit and other borrowed funds are based
on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rates are estimated using rates
currently offered for similar instruments with similar remaining maturities. Demand, savings and
money market deposit accounts are valued at the amount payable on demand as of year-end. The
Company also has unrecognized financial instruments at December 31, 2010 and 2009. These financial
instruments relate to commitments to extend credit and letters of credit. The aggregated contract
amount of such financial instruments was approximately $76,017,000 at December 31, 2010 and
$67,424,000 at December 31, 2009. Such amounts are also considered to be the estimated fair values.
The fair value estimates of financial instruments are made at a specific point in time based on
relevant market information. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could
result from offering for sale at one time the entire holdings of a particular financial instrument
over the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not
considered financial instruments. Since no ready market exists for a significant portion of the
financial instruments, fair value estimates are largely based on judgments after considering such
factors as future expected credit losses, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of
various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and
involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with
precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect these estimates. 2010 Annual
