RISK FACTORS
We may not be able to maintain our historical growth rate, which may adversely impact our
results of operations and financial condition.
Since our inception, Centras asset level has increased rapidly. Various factors, such as
economic conditions, regulatory considerations and competition, may impede our rate of growth and
our branch expansion, or may make future growth or branches less profitable or more expensive. If
we experience a significant decline in our rate of growth as compared to our historic rate of
growth, our income, or our rate of income growth, may decrease, and we may not be able to maintain
or reduce our expense levels and efficiency ratio, which will adversely affect our results of
operations and financial condition.
Economic conditions began deteriorating during the latter half of 2007 and have continued
throughout 2009. Business activity across a wide range of industries and regions has been greatly
reduced and many businesses are in serious difficulties due to lack of consumer spending and the
lack of liquidity in credit markets. Unemployment has also increased significantly. As a result
of this economic crisis, many lending institutions have experienced declines in the performance of
loans, including construction, land development and land loans, commercial loans and consumer
loans. Moreover, competition among depository institutions for deposits and quality loans has
increased significantly. In addition, the values of real estate collateral supporting many
commercial loans and home mortgages have declined and may continue to decline. There can be no
assurance that the environment will improve in the near term.
Centras real estate portfolios are exposed to weakness in the U.S. housing markets and the
overall state of the economy.
The declines in home prices in many markets across the U.S., along with the reduced
availability of mortgage credit, could result in increases in delinquencies and losses in Centras
portfolio of loans related to residential real estate construction and development. Further
declines in home prices coupled with an economic recession and associated rises in unemployment
levels could drive losses beyond that which is provided for in the allowance for loan losses.
The allowance for loan losses may prove inadequate or be negatively affected by credit risk
exposures.
Centras business depends on the creditworthiness of its customers. Centra periodically
reviews the allowance for loan losses for adequacy considering economic conditions and trends,
collateral values and credit quality indicators, including past charge-off experience and levels of
past due loans and nonperforming assets. There is no certainty that the allowance for loan losses
will be adequate over time to cover credit losses in the portfolio because of unanticipated adverse
changes in the economy, market conditions or events adversely affecting specific customers,
industries or markets. If the credit quality of the customer base materially decreases, if the
risk profile of a market, industry or group of customers changes materially, or if the allowance
for loan losses is not adequate, the business, financial condition, liquidity, capital, and results
of operations could be materially adversely affected.
Centras ability to pay dividends is limited.
Holders of shares of Centras common stock are entitled to dividends if, and when, they are
declared by Centras board of directors out of funds legally available for that purpose. The
Federal Reserve Board expects Centra to serve as a source of strength to Centra Bank. The Federal
Reserve Board may require Centra to retain capital for further investment in Centra Bank. The
Federal Reserve Board may require Centra to retain capital for further investment in Centra Bank,
rather than pay dividends to its shareholders. Centra Bank may not pay dividends to Centra if,
after paying those dividends, Centra Bank would fail to meet the required minimum levels under the
risk-based capital guidelines and the minimum leverage ratio requirements. Centra Bank must have
the approval from the West Virginia Division of Banking if a dividend in any year would cause the
total dividends for that year to exceed the sum of the current years net earnings as defined in
the retained earnings for the preceding
3
Table of Contents
two years as defined, less required transfers to surplus. These provisions could limit
Centras ability to pay dividends on its outstanding common shares.
Financial market and economic conditions may adversely affect our business.
The United States is considered to be in a recession, and many businesses are having
difficulty due to reduced consumer spending and the lack of liquidity in the credit markets.
Unemployment has increased significantly.
Because of declines in home prices and the values of subprime mortgages across the country,
financial institutions and the securities markets have been adversely affected by significant
declines in the values of most asset classes and by a serious lack of liquidity. These conditions
have led to the failure or merger of a number of prominent financial institutions. In 2008, the
U.S. government, the Federal Reserve and other regulators took numerous steps to increase liquidity
and to restore investor confidence.
Centras financial performance and the ability of borrowers to pay interest on and repay
principal of outstanding loans and the value of collateral securing those loans depends on the
business environment in the markets where Centra operates.
An increase in FDIC assessments could impact our financial performance.
For 2009, the FDIC imposed significant increases to assessed premiums on Centra Banks
deposits. The FDIC imposes an assessment against all depository institutions for deposit
insurance. In the current economic environment, it is likely that this assessment will increase in
general for financial institutions across the country, including Centra Bank, thereby increasing
operating costs.
Changes in interest rates could reduce income and cash flows.
Aside from credit risk, the most significant risk resulting from Centras normal course of
business, extending loans and accepting deposits, is interest rate risk. Centras income and cash
flows depend to a great extent on the difference between the interest rates earned on
interest-earning assets such as loans and investment securities, and the interest rates paid on
interest-bearing liabilities such as deposits and other borrowings. These rates are highly
sensitive to many factors outside of Centras control, including general economic conditions and
the fiscal and monetary policies of various governmental agencies, in particular, the Federal
Reserve. Changes in monetary policy and changes in interest rates will affect loan origination
values, the values of investments and other assets, the volume of deposits and other borrowings and
the rates received on loans and investment securities and the rates paid on deposits and other
borrowings and the resulting margin. Fluctuations in these areas may have an adverse effect.
Management uses various measures to monitor interest rate risk and believes it has implemented
effective asset and liability management strategies to reduce the potential effects of changes in
interest rates on Centras results of operations. Management also periodically adjusts the mix of
assets and liabilities to manage interest rate risk. However, any substantial, unexpected,
prolonged change in market interest rates could have a material adverse effect on Centras
financial condition and results of operations.
Centras success depends on Centras management team.
The departure of one or more of Centras officers or other key personnel could adversely
affect Centras operations and financial position. Centras management makes most decisions that
involve Centras operations. A significant portion of Centras key personnel have all been with
Centra since Centra was formed in 1999.

Table of Contents
Centra faces vigorous competition in its market areas.
Centra faces competition from the following:
| local, regional and national banks; | ||
| savings and loans; | ||
| internet banks; | ||
| credit unions; | ||
| finance companies; and | ||
| brokerage firms serving Centras market areas. |
In particular, Centras competitors include several major national financial and banking
companies whose greater resources may afford them a marketplace advantage by enabling them to
maintain numerous banking locations and mount extensive promotional and advertising campaigns.
Additionally, banks and other financial institutions may have products and services not offered by
Centra, which may cause current and potential customers to choose those institutions. Centra
experiences areas of competition with interest rates on loans and deposits, the ability to obtain
deposits and the range and quality of services provided. If Centra is unable to attract new and
retain current customers, loan and deposit growth could decrease causing Centras results of
operations and financial condition to be negatively impacted.
Centra is highly regulated.
The operations of Centra are subject to extensive regulation by federal, state, and local
governmental authorities and are subject to various laws and judicial and administrative decisions
imposing requirements and restrictions on them. Policies adopted or required by these governmental
authorities can affect Centras business operations and the availability, growth, and distribution
of Centras investments, borrowings, and deposits. Regulations affecting banks and financial
services businesses are undergoing continuous change, and management cannot predict the effect of
those changes.
The number of shares owned by our directors and executive officers could make it more difficult
to obtain approval for some matters submitted to shareholder vote, including mergers and
acquisitions.
Our directors and executive officers and their affiliates own approximately 30% of the
outstanding common stock. By voting against a proposal submitted to shareholders, the directors
and officers, as a group, may be able to make approval more difficult for proposals requiring the
vote of shareholders, such as some mergers, share exchanges, asset sales, and amendments to the
Articles of Incorporation. The results of the vote may be contrary to the desires or interests of
the public shareholders.
TERMS OF THE OFFERING
Centra Financial is offering up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock at a cash price of $20 per
share. Each investor must execute a subscription agreement and deliver $20 for each share the
investor wishes to acquire. Checks must be made payable to Centra Financial Holdings, Inc.
Subject to the provisions below, each investor must purchase a minimum of 500 shares. At the
boards direction, Centra Financial may waive the maximum amount of shares that may be purchased.
Centra Financial reserves the right to cancel or modify subscriptions, in whole or in part, for any
reason. Centra Financial also reserves the right to reject any and all subscriptions and to
determine the order in which it will accept subscriptions.
The full subscription price per share must be paid at the time an investor subscribes for
shares, unless the company agrees to other arrangements concerning the time and place of full
payment. Funds raised from the offering will be immediately available to Centra Financial for use
and therefore, Centra Financial will not use an
5
Table of Contents
escrow account. Additionally, there is no established minimum amount Centra Financial is
required to raise before it may use funds for the purposes described in Use of Proceeds. Centra
Financial is not aware of any expected purchase amounts by its officers or directors.
Centra Financials board of directors has established general guidelines for management to
determine offerees of common stock of the company. These guidelines allow significant discretion
to management as to whom may be offered the companys common stock. Factors which may be considered
in determining who the offerees are in this offering include:
| Persons residing in Centras existing market areas; | ||
| existence of accounts or purchases of products with the company and its subsidiaries; | ||
| the profitability and volume of the existing accounts and products; | ||
| the longevity of the account relationship; | ||
| future growth potential of the relationship between the company and its subsidiaries and the offeree; | ||
| whether the offeree has in the past or may in the future, refer other persons as customers to the company and its subsidiaries; | ||
| whether the offeree is an employee of the company or its subsidiaries; | ||
| whether management of the company deems, in its discretion, that the offeree would be beneficial to the company, by virtue of ongoing business development or referrals, general reputation, or otherwise; and | ||
| any other factor that management determines relevant. |
In addition to the foregoing factors, management may provide preferential treatment in the
opportunity to purchase shares to the companys and its subsidiaries employees who have assisted
in the development and growth of the company and its business and to provide incentives to other
persons to continue to assist in the companys growth. These guidelines are not binding on
management, and the board of directors has vested in management the discretion to determine the
identities of the offerees of the common stock.
Centra Financial determined the offering price by utilizing the price recently established for
the Dividend Reinvestment Plan (the DRIP). On October 9, 2009, the fair market value of a share of
common stock of Centra Financial was determined to be $20 per share for purposes of purchases under
the DRIP. This determination was made based on an independent third party consulting firm engaged
by Centra Financial pursuant to the terms of the DRIP. Centra Financial uses an independent third
party because its stock does not trade on an exchange or over-the-counter. This valuation was based
primarily on the stock trading multiples of a group of comparable banks. As no other bank is
exactly similar to Centra Financial, choosing a comparable group is a very subjective process.
Comparable banks were chosen based on having performance, financial characteristics and geography
similar to Centra Financial; however, because of Centra Financials location and size there are a
very limited number of comparable banks. The primary determination of value was based on the price
times earnings and/or price as a percent of tangible book value, as appropriate, with other methods
of valuation, such as but not limited to, price as a percent of assets, discounted cash flows,
known trades, previous stock offerings and other information deemed by the consultant to be
appropriate in the circumstance.
USE OF PROCEEDS
Centra Financial will use the proceeds of the offering to provide necessary capital to support
the overall growth of the organization. Centra Financial anticipates using the proceeds from this
offering as follows:

Table of Contents
Centra Financial had 1,551 stockholders of record at November 20, 2009. As of September 30,
2009 options to purchase 1,352,611 shares of Centra Financials common stock are outstanding.
Exercise prices of these options range from $6.21 to $16.53.
Centra has not initiated any plans to repurchase its stock nor has it repurchased any common

Centra Financials stockholders are entitled to receive dividends when and as declared by its
board of directors, subject to various regulatory restrictions. Dividends of the bank to Centra
Financial are subject to the restrictions contained in W.Va. Code § 31A-4-25. That statute
provides that not less than one-tenth part of the net profits of the preceding half-year (in the
case of quarterly or semi-annual dividends) or the preceding two consecutive half-year periods (in
the case of annual dividends) must be carried to a banks surplus fund until the surplus fund
equals the amount of its capital stock. The prior approval of the West Virginia Commissioner of
Banking is required if the total of all dividends declared by a state bank in any calendar year
will exceed the banks net profits for that year combined with its retained net profits for the
preceding two years. The statute defines net profits as the remainder of all earnings from
current operations plus actual recoveries on loans and investments and other assets after deducting
all current operating expenses, actual losses and all federal and state taxes.
DESCRIPTION OF COMMON STOCK
General
This section of the prospectus describes the material terms and provisions of our common
stock. This summary does not purport to be exhaustive and is qualified in its entirety by
reference to our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, our Bylaws, as amended, and the applicable
provisions of West Virginia law.
Our authorized capital stock consists of 50,000,000 shares of our common stock, par value
$1.00 per share and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $1.00 per share. Our authorized
capital stock may be increased and altered from time to time in the manner prescribed by West
Virginia law upon the vote of at least a majority of the shares entitled to vote on the matter.
Each share of our common stock is entitled to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote at
any meeting of stockholders. Holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends when,
as, and if declared by our board of directors out of funds legally available therefor and, upon
liquidation, to receive pro rata all assets, if any, of the company that are available for
distribution after the payment of creditors and any holders of preferred stock. Holders of our
common stock have no preemptive rights to subscribe for any additional securities of any class that
we may issue, nor any conversion, redemption or sinking fund rights. Under West Virginia law,
holders of our common stock have the right to cumulate votes in the election of directors. The
rights and privileges of holders of our common stock are subject to any preferences that our board
of directors may set for any series of preferred stock that we may issue.
Amendment of Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws
Under West Virginia law, the companys Articles of Incorporation generally may be amended by
the affirmative vote of a majority of all votes of shareholders entitled to be cast on a matter and
a majority of the outstanding stock of each class entitled to vote on the amendment, unless a
greater number is specified in the Articles of Incorporation. The companys Articles of
Incorporation do not require a greater vote.
The companys Bylaws may be amended only by a majority vote of the directors of the company.
Business Combinations with Interested Parties
West Virginia corporate law does not contain statutory provisions restricting certain business
combinations.
8
Table of Contents
Antitakeover Provisions
The companys Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws contain the following antitakeover
provisions.
- Staggered Directors Terms. The directors of the company are elected for staggered terms of
three years with no more than one-third of the directors being elected in any one year. This
provision has the effect of making it more difficult and time consuming for a shareholder who has
acquired or controls a majority of the companys outstanding common stock to gain immediate control
of the board of directors or otherwise disrupt the companys management.
- Advance Notice for Director Candidates. The companys Bylaws require that shareholders who
intend to nominate candidates for election to the board of directors must give written notice at
least 14 days prior to the date of any shareholders meeting called for the purpose of electing
directors. The advance notice requirements in the companys Bylaws afford the board of directors
the opportunity to consider the qualifications of the proposed nominees and, to the extent
necessary, to inform the shareholders about these qualifications.
- 80% Vote Required to Remove Directors. The companys Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws
provide that holders of at least 80% of the voting power of shares entitled to vote generally in
the election of directors may remove a director. This provision in the companys articles and
Bylaws makes it more difficult for a third party to fill vacancies created by removal with its own
nominees.
- The Companys Articles of Incorporation Contain Supermajority Provisions. The supermajority
provisions in the companys Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that the affirmative vote
of the holders of at least 80% of the outstanding shares of the voting stock of the company will be
required to amend or repeal Articles of Incorporation provisions dealing with the classification of
the board of directors, director nominations, appointment to newly created directorships, vacancies
of directors, removal of directors and business combinations by unsolicited and unapproved third
parties.
The companys articles also require a two-thirds affirmative vote of the members of the board
to amend the Bylaws to change the principal office, change the number of directors, change the
number of directors on the executive committee or make a substantial change in the duties of the
chairman of the board of the directors and the president. The purpose of a supermajority
requirement is to prevent a shareholder with a majority of the companys voting power from avoiding
the requirements of the foregoing by simply repealing them.
- Advance Notice Requirements for Shareholder Proposals. The companys Bylaws require that a
shareholder wishing to bring business before an annual meeting of shareholders must give 40 days
advance notice to the company. This advance notice requirement gives the board the opportunity to
consider the shareholders proposal and to inform the other shareholders about the proposal and the
boards position regarding it. This provision could discourage a shareholder from bringing a
matter before an annual meeting.
- Fair Price Provision. The companys Articles of Incorporation contain what is known as a
fair price provision. The fair price provision requires the approval of at least 80% of the
companys shares entitled to vote to approve transactions with an interested shareholder except in
cases where either (1) price criteria and procedural requirements are satisfied, or (2) a majority
of the companys board of directors recommends the transaction to the shareholders. If the minimum
price criteria and procedural requirements are met or the requisite approval of the companys board
of directors are given, the normal requirements of West Virginia law would apply.
An interested shareholder is any person, other than the company or any of its subsidiaries,
who is, or who was within the two-year period immediately before the announcement of a proposed
business combination, the beneficial owner of more than 10% of the companys voting power. It also
includes any person who is an assignee of, or has succeeded to, any shares of voting stock in a
transaction not involving a public offering which were at any time within the prior two-year period
beneficially owned by interested shareholders. A disinterested director is any member of the
board of directors of the company who is not affiliated with an interested shareholder and who was
a director of the company prior to the time the interested shareholder became an interested
shareholder. It also
9
Table of Contents
includes any successor to a disinterested director who is not affiliated with an interested
shareholder and who was recommended by a majority of the disinterested directors then on the board.
Advantages of the Companys Antitakeover Provisions
The provisions discussed above may constitute defensive measures because they may discourage
or deter a third party from attempting to acquire control of the company. The purpose of these
provisions is to discourage and to insulate the corporation against hostile takeover efforts which
the companys board of directors might determine are not in the best interests of the company and
its shareholders. We believe that these provisions are reasonable precautions to ensure that a
party seeking control will discuss its proposal with management.
Disadvantages of the Companys Antitakeover Provisions
The classification of the board of directors makes it more difficult to change directors
because they are elected for terms of three years rather than one year, and at least two annual
meetings instead of one are required to change a majority of the board of directors. Furthermore,
because of the smaller number of directors to be elected at each annual meeting, holders of a
minority of the voting stock may be in a less favorable position to elect directors through the use
of cumulative voting. The supermajority provisions make it more difficult for shareholders to
effect changes in the classification of directors.
The ability of the board of directors to issue additional shares of common and preferred stock
also permits the board of directors to authorize issuance of the stock which may be dilutive and,
in the case of preferred stock, which may affect the substantive rights of shareholders without
requiring an additional shareholder vote.
Collectively, the provisions may be beneficial to management in a hostile takeover attempt,
making it more difficult to effect changes, and at the same time, adversely affecting shareholders
who might wish to participate in a takeover attempt.
Restrictions on Ownership
The Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, or BHC Act, generally would prohibit any
company that is not engaged in banking activities and activities that are permissible for a bank
holding company or a financial holding company from acquiring control of the company. Control is
generally defined as ownership of 25% or more of the voting stock or other exercise of a
controlling influence. Under the BHC Act, any existing bank holding company would require the
prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board, before acquiring 5% or more of the voting stock of the
company. In addition, the Change in Bank Control Act of 1978, as amended, or CBC Act, prohibits a
person or group of persons from acquiring control of a bank holding company unless the Federal
Reserve Board has been notified and has not objected to the transaction. Under a rebuttable
presumption established by the Federal Reserve Board, the acquisition of 10% or more of a class of
voting stock of a bank holding company with a class of securities registered under Section 12 of
the Exchange Act, such as the company, would, under the circumstances set forth in the presumption,
constitute acquisition of control of the bank holding company.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
Centra Financial will offer shares of its common stock to the public primarily through sales
made by its directors, officers and employees, on a best-efforts basis. These individuals will use
personal contact, telephone, mail or other media to solicit subscriptions. No Centra Financial or
Centra Bank director, consultant, officer or employee will receive any additional compensation for
assisting with the sale of Centra Financials common stock. The expenses of the offering are
estimated to be $45,790, including legal, accounting, printing and postage expenses. Centra
Financial reserves the right to issue shares through sales made by brokers or dealers in
securities, in which case expenses may exceed the amounts listed above. See Terms of the
Offering.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
ARTICLE VII
Provisions for the regulation of the internal affairs of the
corporation are:
A. Indemnification. Each person who was or is a party
or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved (including,
without limitation, as a witness or deponent) in any threatened,
pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative, investigative or otherwise in nature
(Proceeding), by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person of
whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was a director or
officer of the corporation or is or was serving at the written
request of the corporations Board of Directors, president or their
delegate as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise,
including service with respect to employee benefit plans, whether
the basis of such Proceeding is alleged action or omission in an
official capacity as a director, officer, trustee, employee or agent
or in any other capacity, shall be indemnified and held harmless by
the corporation to the fullest extent authorized by law, including
but not limited to the West Virginia Code, as the same exists or may
hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only
to the extent that such amendment permits the corporation to provide
broader indemnification rights than said Code permitted the
corporation to provide prior to such amendment), against all
expenses, liability and loss (including, without limitation,
attorneys fees and disbursements, judgments, fines, ERISA or other
similar or dissimilar excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid or
to be paid in settlement) incurred or suffered by such person in
connection therewith; provided, however, that the corporation shall
indemnify any such person seeking indemnity in connection with a
Proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person only if such
Proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of
Directors of the corporation; provided, further, that the
corporation shall not indemnify any person for civil money penalties
or other matters, to the extent such indemnification is specifically
not permissible pursuant to federal or state statute or regulation,
or order or rule of a regulatory agency of the federal or state
government with authority to enter, make or promulgate such order or
rule. Such right shall include the right to be paid by the
corporation expenses, including, without limitation, attorneys fees
and disbursements, incurred in defending or participating in any
such Proceeding in advance of its final
II-1
Table of Contents
disposition; provided, however, that the payment of such
expenses in advance of the final disposition of such Proceeding
shall be made only upon delivery to the corporation of an
undertaking, by or on behalf of such director or officer, in which
such director or officer agrees to repay all amounts so advanced if
it should be ultimately determined that such person is not entitled
to be indemnified under this Article or otherwise. The termination
of any Proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or
upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of
itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good
faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not
opposed to the best interest of the corporation, or that such person
did have reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.
B. Right of Claimant to Bring Suit. If a claim under
this Article is not paid in full by the corporation within thirty
days after a written claim therefor has been received by the
corporation, the claimant may at any time thereafter bring suit
against the corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim
and, if successful, in whole or in part, the claimant shall be
entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting such claim. It
shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought
to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in defending or
participating in any Proceeding in advance of its final disposition
where the required undertaking has been tendered to the corporation)
that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct which make it
permissible under the applicable law for the corporation to
indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed, but the burden of
proving such defense shall be on the corporation.
Neither the failure of the corporation (including its Board of
Directors, independent legal counsel, or its shareholders) to have
made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that
indemnification or reimbursement of the claimant is permitted in the
circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of
conduct, nor an actual determination by the corporation (including
its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its
shareholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard
of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption
that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct.
C. Contractual Rights: Applicability. The right to be
indemnified or to the reimbursement or advancement of expenses
pursuant hereto (i) is a contract right based upon good and valuable
consideration, pursuant to which the person entitled thereto may
bring suit as if the provisions hereof were set forth in a separate
written contract between the corporation and the director or
officer, (ii) is intended to be retroactive and shall be available
with respect to events occurring prior to the adoption hereof, and
(iii) shall continue to exist after the rescission or restrictive
modification hereof with respect to events occurring prior thereto.
D. Requested Service. Any director or officer of the
corporation serving, in any capacity, (i) another corporation of
which five percent (5%) or more of the shares entitled to vote in
the election of its directors is held by the corporation, or (ii)
any employee benefit plan of the corporation or of any corporation
referred to herein shall be deemed to be doing so at the request of
the corporation.
E. Non-Exclusivity of Rights. The rights conferred on
any person hereunder shall not be exclusive of and shall be in
addition to any other right which such person may have or may
hereafter acquire under any statute,
II-2
Table of Contents
provision of the Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws,
agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or
otherwise.
F. Insurance. The corporation may purchase and
maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any
director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise
against such expense, liability or loss, whether or not the
corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against
such expense, liability or loss under West Virginia law.
G. Limitation of Liability. A director of the
corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its
stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a
director except to the extent that such exception from liability or
limitation thereof is not permitted by the West Virginia Business
Corporation Act or the laws of the United States or the State of
West Virginia, as the same may exist or are hereafter amended. Any
repeal or modification of the foregoing provision by the
stockholders of the corporation shall not adversely affect any right
of protection of a director of the corporation existing at the time
of such repeal or modification.
Centra Financial is a West Virginia corporation subject to the applicable indemnification
provisions of the General Corporation Law of West Virginia. Centra Financial and all of its
operating subsidiaries have entered into indemnification agreements with their directors which are
substantially similar to the indemnification rights provided for in the Articles of Incorporation.
The foregoing indemnity provisions have the effect of reducing directors and officers
exposure to personal liability for actions taken in connection with their respective positions.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of Centra Financial pursuant to the
foregoing provisions, or otherwise, Centra Financial has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in
the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by Centra Financial of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of Centra Financial in the successful
defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling
person in connection with the securities being registered, Centra Financial will, unless in the
opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy
as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
issue.
Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
On January 16, 2009, pursuant to a purchase agreement with the United States Department of the
Treasury pursuant to which Centra Financial issued and sold (i) 15,000 of our Fixed Cumulative
Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, par value $1.00 per share, and (ii) 750 shares of Fixed
Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B, par value $1.00 per share, for an aggregate
purchase price of $15,000,750. These securities were sold in a transaction exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in reliance on Section 4(2) of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The purchaser in such transaction was an accredited
investor within the meaning of Rule 501 of Resolution D promulgated under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended. Centra Financial redeemed all of the outstanding shares of Fixed Cumulative
Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, on March 31, 2009, for the purchase price of $15,000,000 plus
accrued dividends. On April 30, 2009, Centra Financial redeemed all of the outstanding shares of
Fixed Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B, for $750,000 plus accrued dividends.

Item 17. Undertakings
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective
amendment to this registration statement:
(i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of
1933;
II-6
Table of Contents
(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date
of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which,
individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set
forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease
in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not
exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the
estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the
Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price
represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth
in the Calculation of Registration Fee table in the effective registration statement; and
(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such
information in the registration statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) do not apply if the information required to
be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or
furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement,
or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the
registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each
such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities
being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any
purchaser:
(A) Each prospectus filed by a Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to
be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of
and included in the registration statement; and
(B) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5) or (b)(7)
as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made
pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii) or (x) for the purpose of providing the information
required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and
included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus
is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in
the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes
of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed
to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the
registration statement to which the prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; provided,
however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of
the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by
reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration
statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective
date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or
prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document
immediately prior to such effective date.
(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of a Registrant under the Securities Act of
1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, each undersigned Registrant
undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of an undersigned Registrant pursuant to this
registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the
purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following
communications, the undersigned Registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered
to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
II-7
Table of Contents
(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of an undersigned Registrant relating to
the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of
an undersigned Registrant or used or referred to by an undersigned Registrant;
(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering
containing material information about an undersigned Registrant or its securities provided
by or on behalf of an undersigned Registrant; and
(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by an undersigned
Registrant to the purchaser.
(6) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each
filing of the Registrants annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plans annual
report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by
reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating
to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed
to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of each Registrant pursuant to the
foregoing provisions, or otherwise, each Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in
the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by a Registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of a Registrant in the successful
defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling
person in connection with the securities being registered, that Registrant will, unless in the
opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy
as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
issue.
