ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
-------------------------------

GENERAL

CNB Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated as a Virginia stock
corporation on April 29, 1993, primarily to own and control all of the capital
stock of Community National Bank (the "Bank"). The Company presently engages in
no business other than owning and managing the Bank. The Bank is a national
banking association which engages in a commercial banking business from its main
office in Pulaski, Virginia. The Bank's deposits are insured by the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC"), and it is a member of the Federal
Reserve System.

In July 1994, the Company completed its initial public offering of 437,225
shares of its common stock, $5.00 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), at a
price of $10.00 per share, pursuant to its Prospectus dated November 16, 1993.
The Company received final approval of its application to charter the Bank from
the Office of Comptroller of the Currency (the "OCC") and final approval of its
application for deposit insurance for the bank from the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") on August 29, 1994. On August 29, 1994, the Bank
opened for business.

During 1997, the Board of Directors approved a 25% stock dividend for
shareholders of record as of May 1, 1997. Also during 1997, the Company filed
for and received approval from the SEC for a secondary stock offering of up to
380,000 shares of its common stock, $5.00 par value per share (the "Common
Stock"), at a price of $9.00 per share, pursuant to its Prospectus dated
December 11, 1997. All 380,000 shares were sold during the first quarter of
1998. Net proceeds were approximately $3.1 million and were used for general
banking purposes.

LOCATION AND SERVICE AREA

The Bank's primary service area is Pulaski County and the City of Radford,
Virginia. The Bank conducts a general commercial banking business in its service
area, emphasizing the banking needs of small-to-medium sized businesses,
professional concerns and individuals. The Bank operates from its main office at

<PAGE>

900 Memorial Drive, Pulaski, Virginia, which is at the corner of Memorial Drive
and Lee Highway (U.S. Route 11). See "Item 2. Description of Property" below.
The Bank draws most of its customer deposits and conducts most of its lending
transactions from within its primary service area. The Bank is the only locally
owned and operated commercial bank in Pulaski County.

Pulaski County is located in the New River Valley area of Southwest Virginia.
Pulaski, the county seat, is approximately 53 miles southwest of Roanoke, 90
miles northeast of the Tri-Cities, Tennessee (Johnson City, Kingsport and
Bristol), and 150 miles north of Charlotte, North Carolina. Pulaski County had a
population of 34,500 in 1994 and a median family income of $28,057 in 1989.
Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University ("Virginia Tech"), a four-
year, comprehensive land grant university with over 22,000 students, is located
approximately 15 miles from Pulaski County.

The principal components of the economy of Pulaski County are manufacturing
(which accounts for the largest share of all economic activity), agriculture,
and tourism. Manufacturing employment is concentrated in the automotive,
furniture and textile industries. The largest industrial employers in the county
include Volvo-GM Heavy Trucks (2,800 employees), Pulaski Furniture (1,000
employees) Renfro Corporation (a textile manufacturer with 1,000 employees) and
Jefferson Mills, Inc. (350 employees). Agricultural production, consisting
primarily of beef cattle and dairy farming contributes over $12 million per year
to the county's economy. Claytor Lake State Park, located in the county,
attracts over 800,000 visitors each year, offering swimming, boating, fishing,
hiking and other outdoor sports.

BANKING SERVICES

The Bank offers a full range of deposit services that are typically available in
most banks and savings and loan associations, including checking accounts, NOW
accounts, savings accounts and other time deposits of various types, ranging
from daily money market accounts to longer-term certificates of deposit. The
transaction accounts and time certificates are tailored to the Bank's principal
market area at rates competitive to those offered in the area. In addition, the
Bank offers certain retirement account services, such as Individual Retirement
Accounts (IRAs). All deposits accounts are insured by the FDIC up to the maximum
amount allowed by law (generally, $100,000 per depositor subject to aggregation
rules). The Bank solicits these accounts from individuals, businesses,
associations, organizations, and governmental entities.

The Bank also offers a full range of short-to-medium term commercial and
personal loans. Commercial loans include both secured and unsecured loans for
working capital (including inventory and receivables), business expansion
(including acquisition of real estate and improvements), and purchase of
equipment and machinery. Consumer loans include secured and unsecured loans for
financing automobiles, home improvements, education and personal investments.
The Bank also makes real estate construction and acquisition loans and
originates and holds fixed and variable rate mortgage loans. The Bank's lending
activities are subject to a variety of lending limits imposed by federal law.
While differing limits apply in certain circumstances based on the type of loan
or the nature of the borrower (including borrowers' relationship to the Bank),
in general the Bank is subject to a loan-to-one borrower limit of an amount
equal to 15% of the Bank's unimpaired capital and surplus, or 25% of the
unimpaired capital and surplus if the excess over 15% is approved by the board
of directors of the Bank and is fully secured by readily marketable collateral.
The Bank may not make loans to any director, officer or 10% shareholder of the

<PAGE>

Company or the Bank unless the loan is approved by the Board of Directors of the
Bank and is made on terms not more favorable than would be available to a person
not affiliated with the Bank.

Other bank services include mortgage loan origination, cash management services,
travelers checks, direct deposit of payroll and social security checks, and
automated drafts for various accounts. The Bank is associated with shared
networks of automated teller machines and debit card retail locations that Bank
customers may use throughout Virginia and other regions. The Bank also offers
VISA credit and debit card services.

The Bank does not plan to exercise trust powers during its initial years of
operation. The Bank may in the future offer a full-service trust department, but
cannot do so without the prior approval of the OCC.

COMPETITION

The banking business is highly competitive. The Bank competes as a financial
intermediary with other commercial banks, savings and loan associations, credit
unions and money market funds operating in Pulaski County and else-where, most
of which are larger and have greater resources than the Bank.

The Bank is the only one of these institutions that is locally owned and
operated.

In addition to the commercial banks described above. Two credit unions also
operate in the county. In addition, the Bank is subject to aggressive
competition from a wide variety of financial service companies offering an
expansive array of financial products and services.

The Company believes that the community focus of the Bank, with its emphasis on
service to small businesses, individuals, and professional concerns, gives it an
advantage in some segments of this market.

EMPLOYEES

The Bank presently has 22 full-time equivalent employees. The Company does not
have any employees other than its officers, none of whom receive any
remuneration for their services to the Company.

SUPERVISION AND REGULATION

The Company and the Bank are subject to state and federal banking laws and
regulations. These impose specific requirements and restrictions and provide for
general regulatory oversight with respect to virtually all aspects of
operations. These laws and regulations are generally intended to protect
depositors, not shareholders. To the extent that the following summary describes
statutory or regulatory provisions, it is qualified in its entirety by reference
to the particular statutory and regulatory provisions. Any change in applicable
laws or regulations may have a material effect on the business and prospects of
the Company. Beginning with the enactment of the Financial Institutions Reform,
Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989 ("FIRREA") and following with the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act ("FDICIA"), enacted in 1991,
numerous additional regulatory requirements have been placed on the banking
industry in the past five years, and additional changes have been proposed. The
operations of the Company and the Bank may be affected by legislative changes
and the policies of various regulatory authorities. The Company is unable to

<PAGE>

predict the nature or the extent of the effect on its business and earnings that
fiscal or monetary policies, economic control, or new federal or state
legislation may have in the future.

Federal Bank Holding Company Regulation

The Company is a bank holding company within the meaning of the Bank Holding
Company Act of 1956 (the "BHCA"), Under the BHCA, the Company is subject to
periodic examination by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
(the "Federal Reserve") and is required to file periodic reports of it's
operations and such information as the Federal Reserve may require. Company and
Bank activities are limited to banking, managing or controlling banks,
furnishing services to or performing services for its subsidiaries, or engaging
in any other activity that the Federal Reserve determines to be so closely
related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident
thereto.

Investments, Control, and Activities. With certain limited exceptions, the BHCA
requires every bank holding company to obtain the prior approval of the Federal
Reserve before (i) acquiring substantially all the assets of any bank, (ii)
acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of any voting shares of any
bank if after such an acquisition it would own or control more than 5% of the
voting shares of such bank (unless it already owns or controls the majority of
such shares), or (iii) merging or consolidating with another bank holding
company.

In addition, and subject to certain exceptions, the BHCA and the Change in Bank
Control Act, together with regulations thereunder, require Federal Reserve
approval (or, depending on the circumstances, no notice of disapproval) prior to
any person or company acquiring "control" of a bank holding company, such as the
Company. Control is conclusively presumed to exist if an individual or company
acquires 25% or more of any class of voting securities of the bank holding
company. In the case of the Company, under Federal Reserve regulations control
will be rebuttably presumed to exist if a person acquires at least 10% of the
outstanding shares of any class of voting securities once the Company's Common
Stock is registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange
Act"). The Company registered the Common Stock under the Exchange Act by April
30, 1995. The regulations provide a procedure for challenge of the rebuttable
control presumption.

Under the BHCA, the Company is generally prohibited from engaging in, or
acquiring direct or indirect control of more than 5% of the voting shares of any
company engaged in, nonbanking activities, unless the Federal Reserve, by order
or regulation, has found those activities to be so closely related to banking or
managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto. Some of the
activities that the Federal Reserve has determined by regulation to be proper
incidents to the business of banking include making or servicing loans and
certain types of leases, engaging in certain insurance and discount brokerage
activities, performing certain data processing services, acting in certain
circumstances as a fiduciary or investment or financial advisor, owning savings
associations, and making investments in certain corporations or projects
designed primarily to promote community welfare.

Source of Strength; Cross-Guarantee. In accordance with Federal Reserve policy,
the Company is expected to act as a source of financial strength to the Bank and
to commit resources to support the Bank in circumstances in which the Company
might not otherwise do so. Under the BHCA, the Federal Reserve may require a

<PAGE>

bank holding company to terminate any activity or relinquish control of a
nonbank subsidiary (other than a nonbank subsidiary of a bank) upon the Federal
Reserve's determination that such activity or control constitutes a serious risk
to the financial soundness or stability of any subsidiary depository institution
of the bank holding company. Further, federal bank regulatory authorities have
additional discretion to require a bank holding company to divest itself of any
bank or nonbank subsidiary if the agency determines that divestiture may aid the
depository institution's financial condition. The Bank may be required to
indemnify, or cross-guarantee, the FDIC against losses it incurs with respect to
any other bank which the Company controls, which in effect makes the Company's
equity investments in healthy bank subsidiaries available to the FDIC to assist
any failing or failed bank subsidiary of the Company.

Virginia Bank Holding Company Regulation

All Virginia bank holding companies must register with the Virginia State
Corporation Commission (the "Virginia Commission") under Title 6.1 of the Code
of Virginia (the "Virginia Act"). A registered bank holding company must provide
the Virginia Commission with information with respect to the financial
condition, operations, management, and intercompany relationships of the holding
company and its subsidiaries. The Virginia Commission may also require such
other information as is necessary to keep itself informed about whether the
provisions of Virginia law and the regulations and orders issued thereunder by
the Virginia Commission have been complied with, and may make examinations of
any bank holding company and its subsidiaries.

Under the Virginia Act, it is unlawful without prior approval of the Virginia
Commission for any company to acquire 25% or more of the voting securities of
any bank and for any Virginia bank holding company to acquire direct to indirect
ownership or control of more than 5% of the voting securities of any bank or
other bank holding company. In addition, the Virginia Act allows regional
interstate banking by permitting banking organizations in certain Southeastern
states to acquire Virginia banking organizations if Virginia banking
associations are allowed to acquire banking organizations in their states and
the Virginia banking organization to be acquired has been in existence and
continuously operated as a bank for a period of two years. As a result of this
reciprocal banking provisions, banking organizations in other states, most
significantly North Carolina, have entered the Virginia market through
acquisitions of Virginia institutions. Those acquisitions are subject to federal
and Virginia approval. Recent legislation has broadened these statutes to permit
nationwide reciprocal bank acquisitions. See "The Bank-Branching" below.

THE BANK

General. The Company is the holding company for the bank, which is a national
banking association. Substantially all company revenues are earned through the
operations of the bank. The Office of Comptroller of the Currency (the "OCC") is
the primary regulator for the Bank. The OCC regulates or monitors all areas of
the Bank's operations, including security devices and procedures, adequacy of
capitalization and loss reserves, loans, investments, borrowings, deposits,
mergers, issuances of securities, payment of dividends, interest rates payable
on deposits, interest rates or fees chargeable on loans, establishment of
branches, corporate reorganizations, maintenance of books and records, and
adequacy of staff training to carry on safe lending and deposit gathering
practices. The Bank must maintain certain capital ratios and is subject to
limitations on aggregate investments in real estate, bank premises, and
furniture and fixtures.

<PAGE>

Under FDICIA, all insured institutions must undergo regular on-site examinations
by their appropriate banking agency. The cost of examinations of insured
depository institutions and any affiliates may be assessed by the appropriate
agency against each institution or affiliate as it deems necessary or
appropriate. Insured institutions are required to submit annual reports to the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") and the appropriate agency (and
state supervisor when applicable). FDICIA also directs the FDIC to develop with
other appropriate agencies a method for insured depository institutions to
provide supplemental disclosure of the estimated fair market value of assets and
liabilities, to the extent feasible and practicable, in any balance sheet,
financial statement, report of condition or any other report of any insured
depository institution. FDICIA also requires the Federal banking regulatory
agencies to prescribe, by regulation, standards for all insured depository
institutions and depository institution holding companies relating, among other
things, to: (i) internal controls, in-formation systems and audit systems; (ii)
loan documentation; (iii) credit underwriting; (iv) interest rate risk exposure;
and (v) asset quality.

Transactions With Affiliates and Insiders. The Bank is subject to the provisions
on Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act, which place limits on the amount of
loans or extensions of credit to, or investments in, or certain other
transactions with, affiliates and on the amount of advances to third parties
collateralized by the securities or obligations of affiliates. In addition, most
of these loans and certain other transactions must be secured in prescribed
amounts. The Bank is also subject to the provisions of Section 23B of the
Federal Reserve Act that, among other things, prohibit an institution from
engaging in certain transactions with certain affiliates unless the transactions
are on terms substantially the same, or at least as favorable to such
institution or its subsidiaries, as those prevailing at the time for comparable
transactions with non-affiliated companies. The Bank is subject to certain
restrictions on extensions of credit to executive officers, directors, certain
principal shareholders and their related interests. Such extensions of credit
(i) must be made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and
collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with
third parties and (ii) must not involve more than the normal risk of repayment
or present other unfavorable features.

The Bank is permitted to branch freely within the state of Virginia. The
Virginia Act permits statewide branching for Virginia state banks. As a national
bank located in Virginia, these state branch banking laws also apply to the
Bank. On September 29, 1994, the federal Interstate Banking Efficiency Act (the
"Interstate Act), which expands the ability of banks to compete interstate, was
enacted. The Interstate Act permits nationwide interstate acquisitions of banks
by bank holding companies beginning September 29, 1995, and permits nationwide
interstate mergers of banks beginning June 1, 1997. States can legislatively opt
not to permit inter state banks mergers or can legislatively opt to permit
interstate bank merges before the June 1, 1997, effective date. The Virginia
General Assembly has adopted legislation which opts to permit nationwide
interstate bank mergers effective July 1, 1995.

Community Reinvestment Act. The Community Reinvestment Act (the "CRA") requires
that, in connection with examinations of financial institutions within their
respective jurisdictions, the federal regulators of financial institutions to
evaluate the record of the financial institutions in meeting the credit needs of
their local communities, including low and moderate income neighborhoods,
consistent with the safe and sound operation of those institutions. These

<PAGE>

factors are also considered in evaluating mergers, acquisitions, and
applications to open a branch or facility. The Bank has received a satisfactory
CRA evaluation.

Other Regulations. Interest and certain other charges collected or contracted by
the Bank are subject to state usury laws and certain federal laws concerning
interest rates. The Bank's loan operations are also subject to certain federal
laws applicable to credit transactions, such as the federal Truth-In-Lending Act
governing disclosures of credit terms to consumer borrowed, the Home Mortgage
Disclosure Act of 1975 requiring financial institutions to provide information
to enable the public and public officials to determine whether a financial
institution is fulfilling its obligation to help meet the housing needs of the
community it serves, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act prohibiting discrimination
on the basis of race, creed, or other prohibited factors in extending credit,
the Fair Credit Reporting Act of 1978 governing the use and provision of
information to credit reporting agencies, the Fair Debt Collection Act governing
the manner in which consumer debts may be collected by collection agencies, and
the rules and regulations of the various federal agencies charged with the
responsibility of implementing such federal laws. The deposit operations of the
Bank also are subject to Truth-In-Savings Act, which requires detailed
disclosure of the yield and terms of deposit products, the Right to Financial
Privacy Act, which imposes a duty to maintain confidentiality of consumer
financial records and prescribes procedures for complying with administrative
subpoena of financial records, and the Electronic Funds Transfer Act and
Regulation E issued by the Federal Reserve Board to implement that act, which
governs automatic deposits to and withdrawals from deposit accounts and
customers' rights and liabilities arising from the use of automated teller
machines and other electronic banking services.

Deposit Insurance

The deposits of the Bank are currently insured to a maximum of $100,000 per
depositor, subject to certain aggregation rules. The FDIC establishes rates for
the payment of premiums by federally insured banks and thrifts for deposit
insurance. Separate insurance funds (BIF and SAIF) are maintained for commercial
banks and thrifts, with insurance premiums from the industry used to offset
losses from insurance payouts when banks and thrifts fail. Due to the lower rate
of failures in recent years, the fees Banks and thrifts pay BIF and SAIF have
decreased. The FDIC has adopted a risk-based deposit insurance premium system
for all insured depository institutions, including the Bank, which requires that
a depository institution pay to BIF or SAIF from $.00 to $.27 per $100 of
insured deposits depending on its capital levels and risk profile, as determined
by its primary federal regulator on a semiannual basis. The current assessment
rate per $100 of insured deposits of the Bank is $.00, or a minimum of $2,000
annually.

Dividends

The principal source of the Company's cash revenues comes from dividends
received from the Bank. The amount of dividends that may be paid by the Bank to
the Company depends on the Bank's earnings and capital position and is limited
by federal law, regulations and policies. As a national bank, the Bank may not
pay dividends from its paid-in-capital. All dividends must be paid out of
undivided profits then on hand, after de-ducting expenses, including reserves
from losses and bad debts. In addition, a national bank is prohibited from
declaring a dividend on its shares of common stock until its surplus equals its
stated capital, unless there has been transferred to surplus no less than one-

<PAGE>

tenth of the bank's net profits of the preceding two consecutive half-year
periods (in the case of an annual dividend). The approval of the OCC is required
if the total of all dividends declared by a national bank in any calendar year
exceeds the total if its net profits for that year combined with its retained
net profits for the preceding two years, less any required transfers to surplus.
Under FDICIA, the Bank may not pay a dividend if, after paying the dividend, the
Bank would be undercapitalized. See "Capital Regulations" below.

Capital Regulations

The federal bank regulatory authorities have adopted risk-based capital
guidelines for banks and bank holding companies that are designed to make
regulatory capital requirements more sensitive to differences in risk profile
among banks and bank holding companies, account for off-balance sheet exposure,
and minimize disincentives for holding liquid assets. The resulting capital
ratios represent qualifying capital as a percentage of total risk-weighted
assets and off-balance sheet items. The guidelines are minimums, and the federal
regulators have noted that banks and bank holding companies contemplating
significant expansion programs should not allow expansion to diminish their
capital ratios and should maintain ratios well in excess of the minimums. The
current guidelines require all federally regulated banks and bank holding
companies to maintain a minimum risk-based total capital ratio equal to 8%, of
which at least 4% must be Tier 1 capital. Tier 1 capital includes common
shareholders' equity, qualifying perpetual preferred stock, and minority
interests in equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, but excludes goodwill
and most other intangibles and excludes the allowance for loan and lease losses.
Tier 2 capital includes the excess of any preferred stock not included in Tier 1
capital, mandatory convertible securities, hybrid capital instruments,
subordinated debt and intermediate term-preferred stock, and general reserves
for loan and lease losses up to 1.25% of risk-weighted assets.

Under these guidelines, banks' and bank holding companies' assets are given
risk-weights of 0%, 20%, 50% or 100%. In addition, certain off-balance sheet
items are given credit conversion factors to convert them to asset equivalent
amounts to which an appropriate risk-weight will apply. These computations
result in the total risk-weighted assets. Most loans are assigned to the 100%
risk category, except for first mortgage loans fully secured by residential
property and, under certain circumstances, residential construction loans, both
of which carry a 50% rating. Most investment securities are assigned to the 20%
category, except for municipal or state revenue bonds, which have a 50% rating,
and direct obligations of or obligations guaranteed by the United States
Treasury of United States Government agencies, which have a 0% rating.

The federal bank regulator authorities have also implemented a leverage ratio,
which is Tier 1 capital as a percentage of average total assets less
intangibles, to be used as a supplement to the risk-based guidelines. The
principal objective of the leverage ratio is to place a constraint on the
maximum degree to which a bank or bank holding company may leverage its equity
capital base. The minimum required leverage ratio for top-rated institutions is
3%, but most institutions are required to maintain an additional cushion of at
least 100 to 200 basis points.

These guidelines apply on a consolidated basis to bank holding companies with
total consolidated assets of $150 million or more. For bank holding companies
with less than $150 million in total consolidated assets (such as the Company),
the guidelines will be applied on a bank only basis unless the bank holding
company is engaged in a nonbanking activity involving significant leverage or

<PAGE>

has a significant amount of debt outstanding that is held by the general public.

FDICIA established a new capital-based regulatory scheme designed to promote
early intervention for troubled banks and requires the FDIC to choose the least
expensive resolution of bank failures. The new capital based regulatory
framework contains five categories of compliance with regulatory capital
requirements, including "well capitalized," "adequately capitalized,"
"undercapitalized," "significantly undercapitalized," and "critically
undercapitalized." To qualify as "well capitalized" institution, a bank must
have a leverage ratio of no less the 5%, a Tier 1 risk-based ratio of no less
than 6%, and a total risk-based capital ratio of no less than 10%, and the bank
must not be under any order or directive from the appropriate regulatory agency
to meet and maintain a specific capital level. As of December 31, 1996, the Bank
qualified as "well-capitalized." See "Item 6. Management's Discussion and
Analysis or Plan of Operation."

Under the FDICIA regulations, the applicable agency can treat an institution as
if it were in the next lower category of the agency determines (after notice and
an opportunity for hearing) that the institution is in an unsafe or unsound
condition or is engaging in an unsafe or unsound practice. The degree of
regulatory scrutiny of a financial institution will increase, and the
permissible activities of the institution will decrease, as it moves downward
through the capital categories. Institutions that fall into one of the other
three undercapitalized categories may be required to (i) submit a capital
restoration plan; (ii) raise additional capital; (iii) restrict their growth,
deposit interest rates, and other activities;(iv) improve their management; (v)
eliminate management fees; or (vi) divest themselves of all or part of their
operations. Bank holding companies controlling financial institutions can be
called upon to boost the institutions' capital and to partially guarantee the
institutions' performance under their capital restoration plans.

These capital guidelines can affect the Company in several ways. Rapid growth,
poor loan portfolio performance, or poor earnings performance, or a combination
of these factors, could change the Company's capital position in a relatively
short period of time, making additional capital infusion necessary.

FDICIA requires the federal banking regulators to revise the risk-based capital
standards to provide for explicit consideration of interest-rate risk,
concentration of credit risk, and the risks of non-traditional activities. It is
uncertain what affect these regulations, when implemented, would have on the
Company and the Bank.

Recent Legislative Developments

From time to time, various bills are introduced in the United States Congress
with respect to the regulation of financial institutions. Certain of these
proposals, if adopted, could significantly change the regulation of banks and
the financial services industry. The Company cannot predict whether any of these
proposals will be adopted or, if adopted, how these proposals would affect the
Company.

ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY.

Company and Bank main offices are located on a 4.9 acre plot at 900 Memorial
Drive in Pulaski. The Bank began construction on the permanent facility on March
28, 1995. Construction was completed on December 1, 1995. The cost of the
building was $933,000. The furniture, fixtures and equipment for the facility

<PAGE>

cost $143,000. The permanent facility is a two-story brick building and contains
approximately 10,500 square feet. It features five inside teller windows, three
drive-up lanes, a drive-up night depository and a drive up automated teller
machine and safe-deposit boxes.

The main office site was purchased from a partnership 100% owned by Jack W.
Bowling, a director of the Company, and five members of his immediate family in
an exchange transaction for 25,000 shares of common stock. See "Item 12. Certain
Relationships and Related Transactions."

The second branch office of the Bank, which opened October 4, 1997, is located
at 202 N. Washington Ave, Pulaski, Virginia in CNB Center at the site of a
regional bank's former branch office. It is a full-service branch, with three
inside teller windows, a drive-up lane, a night depository, and safety deposit
boxes. The Bank also has installed a stand-alone automated teller machines on
the campus of the New River Community College in Dublin, Virginia and Pulaski
Community Hospital in Pulaski Virginia.

CNB Center was purchased in 1997 for $187,000. This three story building has
approximately 20,000 square feet. In addition to the branch, the building houses
the Bank's operations department. The second and third floors are leased to
unrelated third parties and is available for future expansion.

In the normal course of business, the Bank invests in debt securities
collateralized by real estate mortgages on residential properties. The Bank's
policies regarding investment in mortgage-backed securities are subject to
change by the Board of Directors without a vote of stockholders. The Bank also
originates and holds real estate mortgages. These are secured by first and
second deeds of trust on residential and commercial properties.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PRCEEDINGS.

Community National Bank (the Bank), the wholly-owned subsidiary of CNB Holdings,
Inc., is the defendant in a suit pending in the United States District Court for
the Western District of Virginia, Roanoke Division. The suit sought to recover
for losses arising from an apparent check-kiting scheme engaged in by a mutual
customer.

The parties involved have agreed in principal to a proposed settlement, subject
to negotiation of a definitive settlement agreement. The terms of the settlement
are to remain confidential. However, the impact of the settlement is not
material to the consolidated financial statements of CNB Holdings, Inc.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTER TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

No matter was submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth quarter
of the fiscal year covered by this report.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.

The Company's articles of incorporation authorize it to issue up to 10,000,000
shares of common stock, par value $5.00 per share (the "Common Stock"), of which

<PAGE>

926,399 were issued and outstanding as of March 21, 2002. There is no
established public trading market in the common stock, and one is not expected
to develop in the near future. The Company's common stock trades thinly,
primarily on the local market. However, three stock brokerage firms, Davenport &
Company, Scott & Stringfellow and Wheat First Securities, have been approved by
the Company as market makers. As of March 21, 2002, there are approximately
1,100 stockholders of record.

The Company has never paid a dividend. It is anticipated that earnings will be
retained for several years to expand the Bank's capital base to support deposit
growth and that no dividends will be paid on the Company's stock for the next
five years. Dividends might not be paid for several years thereafter even though
the Company has achieved profitable operations.

Moreover, the National Banking Act limits dividend payments by national banks,
such as the Bank, which in turn could limit the Company's ability to pay
dividends. The Bank may only pay dividends out of its net profits then on hand,
after deducting expenses, including losses and bad debts. In addition, the Bank
is prohibited from declaring a dividend on its shares of common stock until its
surplus equals its stated capital, unless there has been transferred to this
surplus no less than one-tenth of the Bank's net profits of the preceding two
consecutive half-year periods (in the case of an annual dividend). The approval
of the OCC will be required if the total of all dividends declared in any
calendar year by the Bank exceeds the Banks' net profits to date, as defined,
for that year combined with its retained net profits for the preceding two years
less any required transfers to surplus. At December 31, 2001, the Bank was not
yet cumulatively profitable. The OCC also has the authority under federal law to
enjoin a national bank engaging in what in its opinion constitutes an unsafe or
unsound practice in conducing its business, including the payment of a dividend
under certain circumstances.
