PART 1

Item 1. Business


General

Eastern Virginia Bankshares, Inc. (the "Company" or "EVB") was organized and
chartered under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia on September 5, 1997
and commenced operations on December 29,1997 as a bank holding company. On
December 29, 1997, the effective date, Southside Bank (SSB) a state chartered
nonmember bank and Bank of Northumberland, Inc., (BNI) a state chartered Federal
Reserve member bank, the "Banks" , became wholly-owned subsidiaries of EVB. The
consummation of the affiliation of the Banks was a result of a definitive
agreement entered into on September 26, 1997. The Banks have retained their
respective names, banking offices, executive officers and boards of directors.
This form 10-K covers the first full year of operations for the period ended
December 31, 1998 and pro forma combined operations of the subsidiary companies
for periods prior to the actual consolidation

The remainder of the response to this Item is incorporated by reference to the
information under the captions "To Our Stockholders" and "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of
EVB's Annual Report to Shareholders.

Employees

As of December 31, 1998, the Company had no employees. The subsidiary banks
employed 131 full-time equivalent employees. EVB's success is highly dependent
on its ability to attract and retain qualified employees. Competition for
employees is intense in the financial services industry. The Company believes it
has been successful in its efforts to recruit qualified employees, but there is
no assurance that it will continue to be successful in the future. None of the
Company's employees are subject to collective bargaining agreements. EVB
believes relations with its employees are excellent.


Item 2. Properties



EVB, the parent company, did not own any property as of December 31, 1998. The
Company's principal executive offices are located at 307 Church Lane,
Tappahannock, Virginia 22560. The corporate office is also the headquarters of
SSB and is adjacent to a 5,400 square foot SSB operations center. The two
subsidiary banks own 12 full service branch buildings including the land on
which 11 of those buildings are located. Northumberland and Middlesex Counties
each are the home to three of the branches. Essex County which houses the
corporate offices is home to two branches while Hanover County, King William
County, Caroline County and Gloucester County each have one full service branch
office. All properties are in good condition.


Item 3. Legal Proceedings


In the course of its operations, EVB and its subsidiaries are not aware of any
material pending or threatened litigation, unasserted claims and/or assessments
through December 31, 1998, or subsequent thereto. The only litigation in which
EVB and its subsidiaries, the Banks, are involved are collection suits involving
delinquent loan accounts in the normal course of business.
