I, Matthew Ivers, certify, based on my knowledge, that:

(i) The compensation committee of Alarion Financial Services, Inc. has discussed, reviewed, and evaluated with senior risk officers at least every six months during any part of the most recently completed fiscal year that was a TARP period, senior executive officer (“SEO”) compensation plans and employee compensation plans and the risks these plans pose to Alarion Financial Services, Inc.;

(ii) The compensation committee of Alarion Financial Services, Inc. has identified and limited during any part of the most recently completed fiscal year that was a TARP period any features of the SEO compensation plans that could lead SEOs to take unnecessary and excessive risks that could threaten the value of Alarion Financial Services, Inc. and has identified any features of the employee compensation plans that pose risks to Alarion Financial Services, Inc. and has limited those features to ensure that Alarion Financial Services, Inc. is not unnecessarily exposed to risks;

(iii) The compensation committee has reviewed, at least every six months during any part of the most recently completed fiscal year that was a TARP period, the terms of each employee compensation plan and identified any features of the plan that could encourage the manipulation of reported earnings of Alarion Financial Services, Inc. to enhance the compensation of an employee, and has limited any such features;

(vii) Alarion Financial Services, Inc. has prohibited any golden parachute payment, as defined in the regulations and guidance established under section 111 of EESA, to a SEO or any of the next five most highly compensated employees during any part of the most recently completed fiscal year that was a TARP period;
