PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

General

Surrey Bancorp (the “Company”) began operations on May 1, 2003 and was created for the purpose of acquiring all the outstanding shares of common stock of Surrey Bank & Trust. The Company is subject to regulation by the Federal Reserve.

Surrey Bank & Trust (the “Bank”) was incorporated on July 15, 1996 as a North Carolina banking corporation and opened for business on July 22, 1996. As such, the Bank operates under the laws of the State of North Carolina. As a state chartered, nonmember bank, the Bank is subject to regulation, supervision and regular examination by the North Carolina Banking Commission (the “Commission”) through the North Carolina Commissioner of Banks (the “Commissioner”) and its applicable federal regulator is the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”). The North Carolina Banking Commission and the FDIC have the power to enforce compliance with applicable banking statutes and regulations.

The principal business of the Company is to provide comprehensive individual and corporate financial services through its main and branch offices in Mount Airy, North Carolina and branch offices in Stuart, Virginia and Pilot Mountain, North Carolina. These services include demand and time deposits as well as commercial, installment, mortgage and other consumer lending services, insurance and investment services.

Competitive Conditions

The principal areas and methods of competition in the banking industry are the services that are offered, the pricing of those services, the convenience and availability of the services and the degree of expertise and personal manner with which those services are offered. The Company encounters strong competition from other commercial banks, including the largest North Carolina banks, operating in Mount Airy, North Carolina, and the surrounding area. In the conduct of certain aspects of its business, the Bank also competes with credit unions, insurance companies, money market mutual funds, and other non-bank financial institutions, some of which are not subject to the same degree of regulation as the Company. Many of these competitors have substantially greater resources and lending abilities than the Company and offer certain services, such as investment banking, trust, interstate and international banking services, that the Company does not provide.

Material Customers

Deposits are derived from a broad base of customers in the Company’s trade area. No material portion of deposits have been obtained from a single person or a few persons (including Federal, State, and local governments and agencies thereunder), the loss of which would have a materially adverse effect on the business of the Company.

The majority of loans and commitments to extend credit have been granted to customers in the Company’s market area. The majority of such customers are depositors. The Company generally does not extend credit to any single borrower or group of related borrowers in excess of approximately $4,600,000. Although the Company has a reasonably diversified portfolio, it has loan concentrations relating to customers who are in the following industries: residential real estate, real estate leasing and development, motion picture and sound recording industries, trucking, metal building fabrication and assembly, highway and bridge construction, furniture manufacturing and building contractors. Total loans and loan commitments to these industry groups at December 31, 2010 and 2009 are summarized in the table below:

Supervision and Regulation

Banking is a complex, highly regulated industry. The primary goals of banking regulations are to maintain a safe and sound banking system and to facilitate the conduct of sound monetary policy. In furtherance of these goals, Congress and the North Carolina General Assembly have created largely autonomous regulatory agencies and enacted numerous laws that govern banks, their holding companies and the banking industry. The descriptions of and references to the statutes and regulations below are brief summaries and do not purport to be complete. The descriptions are qualified in their entirety by reference to the specific statutes and regulations discussed.

As a North Carolina bank, Surrey Bank & Trust is subject to regulation, supervision and regular examination by the Commissioner and the FDIC. The Commissioner and the FDIC have the power to enforce compliance with applicable banking statutes and regulations.

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010

On July 21, 2010, President Obama signed into law the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 ( the “Dodd-Frank Act”). The Dodd-Frank Act will have a broad impact on the financial services industry, including significant regulatory and compliance changes including, among other things, (i) enhanced resolution authority of troubled and failing banks and their holding companies; (ii) increased capital and liquidity requirements; (iii) increased regulatory examination fees; (iv) changes to assessments to be paid to the FDIC for federal deposit insurance; and (v) numerous other provisions designed to improve supervision and oversight of, and strengthening safety and soundness for, the financial services sector. Additionally, the Dodd-Frank Act establishes a new framework for systemic risk oversight within the financial system to be distributed among new and existing federal regulatory agencies, including the Financial Stability Oversight Council, the Federal Reserve, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, and the FDIC. A summary of certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act is set forth below, along with its impact on the existing federal bank regulatory framework discussed in further detail below.

 

   

Increased Capital Standards and Enhanced Supervision. The federal banking agencies are required to establish minimum leverage and risk-based capital requirements for banks and bank holding companies. These new standards will be no lower than current regulatory capital and leverage standards applicable to insured depository institutions and may, in fact, be higher when established by the agencies. The


 

Dodd-Frank Act also increases regulatory oversight, supervision and examination of banks, bank holding companies and their respective subsidiaries by the appropriate regulatory agency.

 

   

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“Bureau”). The Dodd-Frank Act creates the Bureau within the Federal Reserve. The Bureau is tasked with establishing and implementing rules and regulations under certain federal consumer protection laws with respect to the conduct of providers of certain consumer financial products and services. The Bureau has rulemaking authority over many of the statutes governing products and services offered to bank consumers. In addition, the Dodd-Frank Act permits states to adopt consumer protection laws and regulations that are more stringent than those regulations promulgated by the Bureau and state attorneys general are permitted to enforce consumer protection rules adopted by the Bureau against state-chartered institutions.

 

   

Deposit Insurance. The Dodd-Frank Act makes permanent the $250,000 deposit insurance limit for insured deposits. Amendments to the Federal Deposit Insurance Act also revise the assessment base against which an insured depository institution’s deposit insurance premiums paid to the Deposit Insurance Fund (“DIF”) will be calculated. Under the amendments, the assessment base will no longer be the institution’s deposit base, but rather its average consolidated total assets less its average tangible equity during the assessment period. Additionally, the Dodd-Frank Act makes changes to the minimum designated reserve ratio of the DIF, increasing the minimum from 1.15 percent to 1.35 percent of the estimated amount of total insured deposits and eliminating the requirement that the FDIC pay dividends to depository institutions when the reserve ratio exceeds certain thresholds. In December 2010, the FDIC increased the reserve ratio to 2.0 percent. The Dodd- Frank Act also provides that, effective one year after the date of enactment, depository institutions may pay interest on demand deposits.

 

   

Transactions with Affiliates. The Dodd-Frank Act enhances the requirements for certain transactions with affiliates under Section 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act, including an expansion of the definition of “covered transactions” and increasing the amount of time for which collateral requirements regarding covered transactions must be maintained.

 

   

Transactions with Insiders. Insider transaction limitations are expanded through the strengthening of loan restrictions to insiders and the expansion of the types of transactions subject to the various limits, including derivative transactions, repurchase agreements, reverse repurchase agreements and securities lending or borrowing transactions. Restrictions are also placed on certain asset sales to and from an insider to an institution, including requirements that such sales be on market terms and, in certain circumstances, approved by the institution’s board of directors.

 

   

Enhanced Lending Limits. The Dodd-Frank Act strengthens the existing limits on a depository institution’s credit exposure to one borrower. Current banking law limits a depository institution’s ability to extend credit to one person (or group of related persons) in an amount exceeding certain thresholds. The Dodd-Frank Act expands the scope of these restrictions to include credit exposure arising from derivative transactions, repurchase agreements, and securities lending and borrowing transactions.

 

   

Compensation Practices. The Dodd-Frank Act provides that the appropriate federal regulators must establish standards prohibiting as an unsafe and unsound practice any compensation plan of a bank holding company or other “covered financial institution” that provides an insider or other employee with “excessive compensation” or could lead to a material financial loss to such firm. In June 2010, prior to the Dodd-Frank Act, the bank regulatory agencies promulgated the Interagency Guidance on Sound


 

Incentive Compensation Policies, which requires that financial institutions establish metrics for measuring the impact of activities to achieve incentive compensation with the related risk to the financial institution of such behavior. Together, the Company does not believe the Dodd-Frank Act and the recent guidance on compensation will materially impact the current compensation policies at the Company and Bank.

 

   

Holding Company Capital Levels. The Dodd-Frank Act requires bank regulators to establish minimum capital levels for holding companies that are at least of the same nature as those applicable to financial institutions. All trust preferred securities, or TRUPs, issued by bank or thrift holding companies after May 19, 2010 will be counted as Tier II Capital (with an exception for certain small bank holding companies). Bank holding companies with at least $15 billion in assets as of December 31, 2009 will have five years to comply with this provision, and starting on January 1, 2013, these holding companies will phase in the requirement by deducting one-third of TRUPs per year for the following three years from Tier 1 capital. TRUPs issued prior to May 19, 2010 by bank holding companies with less than $15 billion in assets as of December 31, 2009 are exempt from these capital deductions entirely. This will have no impact on the Company.

The Company expects that many of the requirements called for in the Dodd-Frank Act will be implemented over time, and most will be subject to implementing regulations over the course of several years. Given the uncertainty associated with the manner in which the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act will be implemented by the various regulatory agencies and through regulations, the full extent of the impact such requirements will have on financial institutions’ operations is unclear. The changes resulting from the Dodd-Frank Act may impact the profitability of the Company’s business activities, require changes to certain of the Company’s business practices, impose upon the Company and Bank more stringent capital, liquidity and leverage ratio requirements or otherwise adversely affect the Company’s business. These changes may also require the Company to invest significant management attention and resources to evaluate and make necessary changes in order to comply with new statutory and regulatory requirements.

Federal Regulation

As a bank holding company, Surrey Bancorp is subject to regulation, supervision and regular examinations by the Federal Reserve. The Bank Holding Company Act provides that a bank holding company must obtain the prior approval of the Federal Reserve for the acquisition of more than five percent of the voting stock or substantially all the assets of any bank or bank holding company. In addition, the Bank Holding Company Act restricts the extension of credit to any bank holding company by its subsidiary bank. The Bank Holding Company Act also provides that, with certain exceptions, a bank holding company may not engage in any activities other than those of banking or managing or controlling banks and other authorized subsidiaries or own or control more than five percent of the voting shares of any company that is not a bank. The Federal Reserve has deemed limited activities to be closely related to banking and therefore permissible for a bank holding company.

As a North Carolina bank, Surrey Bank & Trust is subject to regulation, supervision and regular examination by the FDIC. The FDIC is required to conduct regular on-site examinations of the operations of the Bank and enforces federal laws that set specific requirements for bank capital, the payment of dividends, loans to officers and directors, and types and amounts of loans and investments made by commercial banks. Among other things, the FDIC must approve the establishment of branch offices, conversions, mergers, assumption of deposit liabilities between insured banks and uninsured banks or institutions, and the acquisition or establishment of certain subsidiary corporations. The FDIC can also prevent capital or surplus diminution in transactions where the deposit accounts of the resulting, continuing or assumed bank are insured by the FDIC.

Transactions with Affiliates. A bank may not engage in specified transactions (including, for example, loans) with its affiliates unless the terms and conditions of those transactions are substantially the same or at least as favorable to the bank as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with or involving other nonaffiliated entities. In the absence of comparable transactions, any transaction between a bank and its affiliates must be on terms and under circumstances, including credit standards, which in good faith would be offered or would apply to nonaffiliated


companies. In addition, transactions referred to as “covered transactions” between a bank and its affiliates may not exceed 10% of the bank’s capital and surplus per affiliate and an aggregate of 20% of its capital and surplus for covered transactions with all affiliates. Certain transactions with affiliates, such as loans, also must be secured by collateral of specific types and amounts. The Bank also is prohibited from purchasing low quality assets from an affiliate. Every company under common control with the Bank is deemed to be an affiliate of the Bank.

Loans to Insiders. Federal law also constrains the types and amounts of loans that the Bank may make to its executive officers, directors and principal shareholders. Among other things, these loans are limited in amount, must be approved by the Bank’s board of directors in advance, and must be on terms and conditions as favorable to the Bank as those available to an unrelated person.

Regulation of Lending Activities.  Loans made by the Bank are also subject to numerous federal and state laws and regulations, including the Truth-In-Lending Act, Federal Consumer Credit Protection Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act and adjustable rate mortgage disclosure requirements. Remedies to the borrower or consumer and penalties to the Bank are provided if the Bank fails to comply with these laws and regulations. The scope and requirements of these laws and regulations have expanded significantly in recent years.

Branch Banking.    All banks located in North Carolina are authorized to branch statewide. Accordingly, a bank located anywhere in North Carolina has the ability, subject to regulatory approval, to establish branch facilities near any of our facilities and within our market area. If other banks were to establish branch facilities near our facilities, it is uncertain whether these branch facilities would have a material adverse effect on our business. Under the Dodd-Frank Act, national and state banks may branch within the state where the head office is located, to the extent permitted by that state. National and state banks may also branch de novo into another state to the same extent a bank headquartered in that state could branch within that state, subject to certain deposit concentration limits. Federal regulations prohibit an out-of-state bank from using interstate branching authority primarily for the purpose of deposit production. These regulations include guidelines to insure that interstate branches operated by an out-of-state bank in a host state are reasonably helping to meet the credit needs of the host state communities served by the out-of-state bank.

Reserve Requirements.    Pursuant to regulations of the Federal Reserve, the Bank must maintain average daily reserves against its transaction accounts. During 2010, no reserves were required to be maintained on the first $10.7 million of transaction accounts, but reserves equal to 3.0% were required to be maintained on the aggregate balances of those accounts between $10.7 million and $55.2 million, and additional reserves were required to be maintained on aggregate balances in excess of $55.2 million in an amount equal to 10.0% of the excess. These percentages are subject to annual adjustment by the Federal Reserve, which has advised that for 2011, no reserves will be required to be maintained on the first $10.7 million of transaction accounts, but reserves equal to 3.0% must be maintained on the aggregate balances of those accounts between $10.7 million and $58.8 million, and additional reserves are required on aggregate balances in excess of $58.8 million in an amount equal to 10.0% of the excess. Because required reserves must be maintained in the form of vault cash or in an account at a Federal Reserve Bank bearing nominal interest, the effect of the reserve requirement is to reduce the amount of the institution’s interest-earning assets and interest income. As of December 31, 2010, the Bank met its reserve requirements.

Community Reinvestment.  Under the Community Reinvestment Act (“CRA”), as implemented by regulations of the federal bank regulatory agencies, an insured bank has a continuing and affirmative obligation, consistent with its safe and sound operation, to help meet the credit needs of its entire community, including low and moderate income neighborhoods. The CRA does not establish specific lending requirements or programs for banks, nor does it limit a bank’s discretion to develop the types of products and services that it believes are best suited to its particular community, consistent with the CRA. The CRA requires the federal bank regulatory agencies, in connection with their examination of insured banks, to assess the banks’ records of meeting the credit needs of their communities, using the ratings of “outstanding,” “satisfactory,” “needs to improve,” or “substantial noncompliance,” and to take that record into account in its evaluation of certain applications by those banks. All banks are required to make public disclosure of their CRA performance ratings. The Bank received a “satisfactory” rating in its most recent CRA examination.


Governmental Monetary Policies.  The commercial banking business is affected not only by general economic conditions but also by the monetary policies of the Federal Reserve, a federal banking regulatory agency that regulates the money supply in order to mitigate recessionary and inflationary pressures. Among the techniques used to implement these objectives are open market transactions in United States government securities, changes in the rate paid by banks on bank borrowings, and changes in reserve requirements against bank deposits. These techniques are used in varying combinations to influence overall growth and distribution of bank loans, investments, and deposits, and their use may also affect interest rates charged on loans or paid for deposits. The monetary policies of the Federal Reserve have had a significant effect on the operating results of commercial banks in the past and are expected to continue to do so in the future. In view of changing conditions in the national economy and money markets, as well as the effect of actions by monetary and fiscal authorities, no prediction can be made as to possible future changes in interest rates, deposit levels, loan demand or the business and earnings of the Bank.

Dividends.  As a bank holding company that does not, as an entity, currently engage in separate business activities of a material nature, the Company’s ability to pay cash dividends depends upon the cash dividends the Company receives from the Bank. The Company’s primary source of income is dividends paid by the Bank. The Company must pay all of its operating expenses from funds it receives from the Bank. North Carolina banking law requires that dividends be paid out of retained earnings and prohibits the payment of cash dividends if payment of the dividend would cause the Bank’s surplus to be less than 50% of its paid-in capital. Also, under federal banking law, no cash dividend may be paid if the Bank is undercapitalized or insolvent or if payment of the cash dividend would render the Bank undercapitalized or insolvent and no cash dividend may be paid by the Bank if it is in default of any deposit insurance assessment due to the FDIC. Therefore, shareholders may receive dividends from the Company only to the extent that funds are available at the holding company or from the Bank. In addition, the Federal Reserve generally prohibits bank holding companies from paying dividends except out of operating earnings, and the prospective rate of earnings retention appears consistent with the bank holding company’s capital needs, asset quality and overall financial condition. The Federal Reserve may impose restrictions on the Company’s payment of cash dividends since it is required to maintain its own adequate regulatory capital and is expected to serve as a source of financial strength and to commit resources to the Bank.

Deposit Insurance Assessments.  The enactment of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 temporarily raised the basic limit on federal deposit insurance coverage from $100,000 to $250,000 per depositor, which effective July 22, 2010 was raised permanently to $250,000 per depositor pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act. To obtain this deposit protection, banks must pay assessments to the FDIC. The FDIC assesses insurance premiums on a bank’s deposits at a variable rate depending on the probability that the Deposit Insurance Fund will incur a loss with respect to that bank. Banks assigned to higher risk classifications (that is, banks that pose a higher risk of loss to their respective deposit insurance funds) pay assessments at higher rates than institutions that pose a lower risk. The FDIC determines the deposit insurance assessment rates on the basis of a bank’s capital classification and supervisory evaluations. Each of these categories has three subcategories, resulting in nine assessment risk classifications. The three subcategories with respect to capital are “well-capitalized,” “adequately capitalized” and “less than adequately capitalized” (that would include “undercapitalized,” “significantly undercapitalized” and “critically undercapitalized” banks). The three subcategories with respect to supervisory concerns are “healthy,” “supervisory concern” and “substantial supervisory concern.” A bank is deemed “healthy” if it is financially sound with only a few minor weaknesses. A bank is deemed subject to “supervisory concern” if it has weaknesses that, if not corrected, could result in significant deterioration of the bank and increased risk to the DIF of the FDIC. A bank is deemed subject to “substantial supervisory concern” if it poses a substantial probability of loss to the DIF. In addition, the FDIC can impose special assessments in certain instances. The insurance assessment rate for banks during 2010 ranged from 0.12% to 0.24% at the lowest assessment category up to a maximum assessment of 0.775% on a bank’s average deposit base. In an effort to encourage banks to limit the FDIC’s exposure, the 2010 insurance assessment rate formula also:

 

   

Reduced the assessment rate paid by a bank by up to 0.05% based on the amount of unsecured debt held by the institution;

   

Increased a bank’s assessment by up to 0.225% based on its risk profile if the bank has high levels of secured liabilities, since those claims must be paid before depositors can make claims in the event of a failure; and

   

Increased a bank’s assessment if it is already considered risky and brokered deposits make up more than 10% of the institution’s domestic deposits.


The Bank’s deposit insurance assessments may increase depending upon the risk category and subcategory, if any, to which it is assigned. Any increase in insurance assessments could have an adverse effect on the Company’s earnings.

On October 16, 2008, the FDIC published a restoration plan designed to replenish the Deposit Insurance Fund over a period of five years and to increase the deposit insurance reserve ratio, which decreased to 1.01% of insured deposits on June 30, 2008, to the statutory minimum of 1.15% of insured deposits by December 31, 2013, which has now been increased to 1.35% by the Dodd-Frank Act. In order achieve these levels, the FDIC has issued special deposit insurance assessments and raised deposit insurance rates. In addition, the Dodd-Frank Act authorizes the FDIC to make additional special assessments and, for the first time in its history, charge examination fees.

Changes in Management.  Any depository institution that has been chartered less than two years, is not in compliance with the minimum capital requirements of its primary federal banking regulator, or is otherwise in a troubled condition must notify its primary federal banking regulator of the proposed addition of any person to the board of directors or the employment of any person as a senior executive officer of the institution at least 30 days before such addition or employment becomes effective. During this 30-day period, the applicable federal banking regulatory agency may disapprove of the addition of such director or employment of such officer. The Bank is not subject to any such requirements.

Enforcement Authority.  The federal banking laws also contain civil and criminal penalties available for use by the appropriate regulatory agency against certain “institution-affiliated parties” including management, employees and agents of a financial institution, as well as independent contractors such as attorneys and accountants and others who participate in the conduct of the financial institution’s affairs and who caused or are likely to cause more than minimum financial loss to or a significant adverse affect on the institution, who knowingly or recklessly violate a law or regulation, breach a fiduciary duty or engage in unsafe or unsound practices. These practices can include the failure of an institution to timely file required reports or the submission of inaccurate reports. These laws authorize the appropriate banking agency to issue cease and desist orders that may, among other things, require affirmative action to correct any harm resulting from a violation or practice, including restitution, reimbursement, indemnification or guarantees against loss. A financial institution may also be ordered to restrict its growth, dispose of certain assets or take other action as determined by the primary federal banking agency to be appropriate.

Capital Adequacy.  The Federal Reserve has promulgated capital adequacy regulations for all bank holding companies with assets in excess of $150 million. The Bank is also subject to capital requirements and limits on activities established by the FDIC. The Federal Reserve’s and the FDIC’s capital adequacy regulations are based upon a risk based capital determination, whereby institution’s adequacy is determined in light of the risk, both on- and off-balance sheet, contained in the company’s assets. Different categories of assets are assigned risk weightings and are counted at a percentage of their book value.

The regulations divide capital between Tier 1 capital (core capital) and Tier 2 capital. For a bank holding company, Tier 1 capital consists primarily of common stock, related surplus, noncumulative perpetual preferred stock, minority interests in consolidated subsidiaries and a limited amount of qualifying cumulative preferred securities. Goodwill and certain other intangibles are excluded from Tier 1 capital. Tier 2 capital consists of an amount equal to the allowance for loan and lease losses up to a maximum of 1.25% of risk weighted assets, limited other types of preferred stock not included in Tier 1 capital, hybrid capital instruments and term subordinated debt. Investments in and loans to unconsolidated banking and finance subsidiaries that constitute capital of those subsidiaries are excluded from capital. The sum of Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital constitutes qualifying total capital. The Tier 1 component must comprise at least 50% of qualifying total capital.

Every bank holding company and bank has to achieve and maintain a minimum Tier 1 capital ratio of at least 4.0% and a minimum total capital ratio of at least 8.0%. In addition, banks and bank holding companies are required to maintain a minimum leverage ratio of Tier 1 capital to average total consolidated assets (leverage capital ratio) of at least 3.0% for the most highly-rated, financially sound banks and bank holding companies and a minimum leverage ratio of at least 4.0% for all other banks. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the Federal Reserve define Tier 1 capital for banks in the same manner for both the leverage ratio and the risk-based capital ratio. However, the Federal Reserve defines Tier 1 capital for bank holding companies in a slightly different manner. As of December


31, 2010, the Company’s leverage capital ratio, Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio and total risk-based capital ratio were 11.88%, 15.97% and 17.24%, respectively.

The guidelines also provide that banking organizations experiencing internal growth or making acquisitions will be expected to maintain strong capital positions substantially above the minimum supervisory level, without significant reliance on intangible assets. The guidelines also indicate that the Federal Reserve will continue to consider a “Tangible Tier 1 Leverage Ratio” in evaluating proposals for expansion or new activities. The Tangible Tier 1 Leverage Ratio is the ratio of Tier 1 capital, less intangibles not deducted from Tier 1 capital, to quarterly average total assets. As of December 30, 2010, the Federal Reserve had not advised the Company of any specific minimum Tangible Tier 1 Leverage Ratio applicable to it.

Prompt Corrective Action. Banks are subject to restrictions on their activities depending on their level of capital. Federal “prompt corrective action” regulations divide banks into five different categories, depending on their level of capital. Under these regulations, a bank is deemed to be “well capitalized” if it has a total risk-based capital ratio of 10% or more, a core capital ratio of 6% or more and a leverage ratio of 5% or more, and if the bank is not subject to an order or capital directive to meet and maintain a certain capital level. Under these regulations, a bank is deemed to be “adequately capitalized” if it has a total risk-based capital ratio of 8% or more, a core capital ratio of 4% or more and a leverage ratio of 4% or more (unless it receives the highest composite rating at its most recent examination and is not experiencing or anticipating significant growth, in which instance it must maintain a leverage ratio of 3% or more). Under these regulations, a bank is deemed to be “undercapitalized” if it has a total risk-based capital ratio of less than 8%, a core capital ratio of less than 4% or a leverage ratio of less than 3%. Under these regulations, a bank is deemed to be “significantly undercapitalized” if it has a risk-based capital ratio of less than 6%, a core capital ratio of less than 3% and a leverage ratio of less than 3%. Under such regulations, a bank is deemed to be “critically undercapitalized” if it has a leverage ratio of less than or equal to 2%. In addition, the applicable federal banking agency has the ability to downgrade a bank’s classification (but not to “critically undercapitalized”) based on other considerations even if the bank meets the capital guidelines.

If a bank is classified as undercapitalized, the bank is required to submit a capital restoration plan to the FDIC and the FDIC may also take certain actions to correct the capital position of the bank. An undercapitalized bank is prohibited from increasing its assets, engaging in a new line of business, acquiring any interest in any company or insured depository institution, or opening or acquiring a new branch office, except under certain circumstances, including the acceptance by the FDIC of a capital restoration plan for the bank.

If a state bank is classified as significantly undercapitalized, the FDIC would be required to take one or more prompt corrective actions. These actions would include, among other things, requiring sales of new securities to bolster capital, changes in management, limits on interest rates paid, prohibitions on transactions with affiliates, termination of certain risky activities and restrictions on compensation paid to executive officers. If a bank is classified as critically undercapitalized, the bank must be placed into conservatorship or receivership within 90 days, unless the FDIC determines otherwise.

The capital classification of a bank affects the frequency of regulatory examinations of the bank and impacts the ability of the bank to engage in certain activities and affects the deposit insurance premiums paid by the bank. The FDIC is required to conduct a full-scope, on-site examination of every bank on a periodic basis.

Banks also may be restricted in their ability to accept brokered deposits, depending on their capital classification. “Well capitalized” banks are permitted to accept brokered deposits, but all banks that are not well capitalized are not permitted to accept such deposits. The FDIC may, on a case-by-case basis, permit banks that are adequately capitalized to accept brokered deposits if the FDIC determines that acceptance of such deposits would not constitute an unsafe or unsound banking practice with respect to the bank.

State Regulation

As a North Carolina-chartered bank, the Bank is also subject to extensive supervision and regulation by the Commissioner. The Commissioner enforces state laws that set specific requirements for bank capital, the payment of dividends, loans to officers and directors, record keeping, and types and amounts of loans and investments made


by commercial banks. Among other things, the approval of the Commissioner is generally required before a North Carolina-chartered commercial bank may establish branch offices. North Carolina banking law requires that any merger, liquidation or sale of substantially all of the assets of the Bank must be approved by the Commissioner and the holders of two thirds of the Bank’s outstanding common stock.

Change of control.  North Carolina banking laws provide that no person may directly or indirectly purchase or acquire voting stock of the Bank that would result in the change in control of the Bank unless the Commissioner has approved the acquisition. A person will be deemed to have acquired “control” of the Bank if that person directly or indirectly (i) owns, controls or has power to vote 10% or more of the voting stock of the Bank, or (ii) otherwise possesses the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policy of the Bank.

Loans.  In its lending activities, the Bank is subject to North Carolina usury laws which generally limit or restrict the rates of interest, fees and charges and other terms and conditions in connection with various types of loans. North Carolina banking law also limits the amount that may be loaned to any one borrower.

Dividends.  The ability of the Bank to pay dividends is restricted under applicable law and regulations. Under North Carolina banking law, dividends must be paid out of retained earnings and no cash dividends may be paid if payment of the dividend would cause the bank’s surplus to be less than 50% of its paid-in capital.

Holding companies.  North Carolina banking law requires that bank holding companies register with the Commissioner. The Commissioner must also approve any acquisition of control of a state-chartered bank by a bank holding company.

Future Legislation and Regulations

The Company cannot predict what new legislation might be enacted or what regulations might be adopted or amended, or if enacted, adopted or amended, their effect on its operations. Any change in applicable law or regulation, state or federal, may have a material adverse effect on its business.

Environmental Laws

Compliance with federal, state, or local provisions regulating the discharge of materials into the environment has not had, nor is it expected to have in the future, a material effect upon the Bank’s capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position.

Employees

All employees of the Company are compensated by the Company’s subsidiary, the Bank. The Bank had ten (10) officers, sixty (60) full-time employees (including the officers), and eleven (11) part-time employees as of December 31, 2010.

Fourth Quarter

   $6.65      $5.65      $8.50      $7.60

The last sales price of the common stock on March 14, 2011 was $6.15. The approximate number of holders of the Company’s 3,206,495 shares of Common Stock as of December 31, 2010 is 1,600. There are 189,356 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2010. The preferred stock is non-cumulative and each share is convertible into 2.0868 shares of common stock. The preferred stock carries a dividend rate of 4.5% and has a liquidation value of $14.00 per share. The preferred stock was issued under a private placement in the second quarter of 2003.


On December 1, 2010, the Company issued 181,154 shares of Series D 5.0% Convertible Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock for $7.08 per share, netting proceeds of $1,248,482 after issue cost. The shares have a liquidation value of $7.08 per share and are convertible into one share of common stock at the election of the holder, but are not redeemable at the option of the holder. Provided that the market value of Surrey’s common stock is $8.85 on or after January 1, 2014, Surrey may redeem all or a portion of the outstanding shares of Series D Preferred Stock at a redemption price of $7.08 per share. The shares were issued in a private placement and are held by approximately 15 stockholders of record. The shares are non-voting and convertible into one shares of common stock.

On January 9, 2009, the Company issued and sold to the US Department of the Treasury (i) 2,000 shares of the Company’s Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B, with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) and (ii) a warrant to purchase 100.001 shares of the Company’s Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series C, with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (the “Series C Preferred Stock”), at an initial exercise price of $0.01 per share (the “Warrant”). The Warrant was immediately exercised by Treasury. The Series B Preferred Stock paid cumulative dividends at a rate of 5% per annum for the first five years, and 9% per annum thereafter. The Series C Preferred Stock paid cumulative dividends at a rate of 9% per annum. The Series B and C Preferred Stock had no maturity date and ranked senior to the Company’s common stock with respect to the payment of dividends and distributions and amounts payable upon liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company.

On December 29, 2010, the Company repurchased all of its outstanding Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $2.1 million, including approximately $13 thousand of accrued and unpaid dividends and approximately $40,000 in unamortized discounts. The Company funded the repurchase of the Preferred Stock primarily with cash on hand and the net proceeds received on December 1, 2010 upon the completion of its private placement of its Series D Preferred Stock as described above.

Each holder of Common Stock is entitled to dividends paid by the Company when and if declared by the Board of Directors from funds legally available. The determination and declaration of dividends is within the discretion of the Board of Directors subject to legal conditions. As a bank holding company that does not, as an entity, currently engage in separate business activities of a material nature, the ability to pay cash dividends depends upon the cash dividends received from the subsidiary bank (Surrey Bank & Trust). The Company’s only source of income is dividends paid by the Bank and interest income from excess funds invested in time deposits with the Bank. The Company must pay all of its operating expenses from funds that are received from the Bank. North Carolina banking requires that dividends from a bank be paid out of the Bank’s retained earnings and prohibits the payment of cash dividends if payment of the dividend would cause the Bank’s surplus to be less than 50% of its paid-in capital. Also, under federal banking law, no cash dividend may be paid if the Bank is undercapitalized or insolvent or if payment of the cash dividend would render the Bank undercapitalized or insolvent, and no cash dividend may be paid by the Bank if it is in default of any deposit insurance assessment due to the FDIC. Therefore, shareholders may receive dividends from the Company only to the extent that funds are available from the Bank. In addition, the Federal Reserve generally prohibits bank holding companies from paying dividends except out of operating earnings, and the prospective rate of earnings retention appears consistent with the bank holding company’s capital needs, asset quality and overall financial condition. Subject to these restrictions, the Board of Directors will consider the payment of dividends when it is deemed prudent to do so.

No cash dividends on the common stock of the Company were declared in 2010.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

None.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-14. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goal under every potential condition, regardless of how remote. In addition, the operation of any system of controls and procedures is dependent upon the employees responsible for executing it. While we have evaluated the operation of our disclosure controls and procedures and found them effective, there can be no assurance that they will succeed in every instance to achieve their objective.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of the inherent limitations in any internal control, no matter how well designed, misstatements may occur and not be prevented or detected. Accordingly, even effective internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Further, the evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting was made as of a specific date, and continued effectiveness in future periods is subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may decline.

Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our system of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on the framework set forth in “Internal Control - Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on its evaluation, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2010, Surrey Bancorp’s internal control over financial reporting was effective.


This annual report does not include an attestation report of the company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to a provision in the Dodd-Frank Act that exempts smaller reporting companies, like the Company, from the requirement to provide the auditor’s attestation report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the fourth fiscal quarter of the fiscal year covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
