MIDCAROLINA FINANCIAL CORPORATION

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and transactions of MidCarolina Financial Corporation (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary MidCarolina Bank (the “Bank”). All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. In management’s opinion, the financial information, which is unaudited, reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial information as of March 31, 2011 and for the three month periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2011.

The organization and business of the Company, accounting policies followed by the Company and other information are contained in the notes to the consolidated financial statements filed as part of the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K. This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with such annual report.

NOTE B - COMMITMENTS

At March 31, 2011, loan commitments were as follows (in thousands):


Commitments to extend credit	$	25,944
Undisbursed lines of credit		32,032
Standby letters of credit		2,187
Commitments to sell loans held for sale		683

NOTE C - PER SHARE DATA

Diluted earnings per share reflect additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential shares had been issued. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2011 there were 346,116 options that were antidilutive due to the average share price for the quarter being in excess of the grant price. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2010 all options were antidilutive due to the net loss.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE D - INVESTMENT SECURITIES (Continued)

The following tables show investments’ gross unrealized losses and fair value, aggregated by investment category and length of time that the individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position, at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010. The Company had 53 securities with gross unrealized losses at March 31, 2011. These securities include three US Agency securities, twelve mortgaged-backed securities, one private label collateralized mortgage obligation, three government sponsored enterprise (GSE) collateralized mortgage obligations, thirty three state and municipal securities and one subordinated debenture. The Company had 54 securities with gross unrealized losses at December 31, 2010. These securities include three U.S. government agency securities, twelve mortgage-backed securities, three government sponsored enterprise (GSE) collateralized mortgage obligations, one private label collateralized mortgage obligations, thirty three state and municipal securities and one subordinated debenture. The GSE collateralized mortgage obligations were comprised of three GNMA securities. Management feels that the unrealized loss is attributable to a limited market for trading these types of securities and the interest rate spreads. None of the unrealized losses identified as temporarily impaired securities as of March 31, 2011 or December 31, 2010 relate to the issuers’ ability to honor redemption obligations or the marketability of the securities. The bond ratings of the municipal securities include two AAA-rated bonds, twenty-six AA-rated bonds and five A-rated securities. No municipal securites have a rating below A. The municipal securites portfolio is geographically diversified. Management believes it is more likely than not that these securities will not need to be sold prior to recovery.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE D - INVESTMENT SECURITIES (Continued)

There were no sales of investment securities in the three month period ended March 31, 2011 and $18.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Gross realized gains from the sale of investment securities available for sale amounted to $45,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Net realized gains from the sales of securities available for sale amounted to $45,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Realized losses from the impairment of private label mortgage backed securities amounted to $18,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 resulting from increased default rates on underlying collateral payments and credit rating deterioration. There was no impairment related to credit losses on private label mortgage backed securities for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Investment securities with amortized cost of $29.1 million and fair value of $28.8 million at March 31, 2011 were pledged to secure public monies on deposit as required by law.

Debt securities were divided into two groups: those rated investment grade by at least one nationally-recognized rating agency and those rated below investment grade by all nationally-recognized agencies. Impairment of debt securities consistently rated investment grade is considered temporary unless specific contrary information is identified. None of the debt securities consistently rated investment grade were considered to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2011. One debt security rated below investment grade (a private label collateralized mortgage obligation) was considered to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2011.

At March 31, 2011, the aggregate unrealized loss on the private label collateralized mortgage obligation totaled $50,000 before recognition of any other-than-temporary impairment charges. Impairment of this security was evaluated to determine if we expect to not recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security. This evaluation was based on projections of estimated cash flows on individual loans underlying each security using current and anticipated changes in unemployment and default rates, decreases in housing prices and increases in loss severity at foreclosure. No impairment charges related to credit were recognized in the statements of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2011.

The primary assumptions used in this evaluation were:

Prepayment - starting with current refinancing and payoff prepayment vector statistics based on information derived from the trustee. The bond’s prepayment vector anticipates a VPR for 9 months and then returning to historical norms of 4 VPR to maturity

Loss severity - the estimated foreclosure rate is 45% through 2011 and 35% thereafter, through maturity. Loss severity includes estimated holding and disposal expenses.

Default rate - The model takes the consumer default rate from the mortgage backed bond’s 2 month average default rate from 16.5% over the next 24 months and down to 4% through maturity.

MIDCAROLINA FINANCIAL CORPORATION

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE D - INVESTMENT SECURITIES (Continued)

Discount rate - estimated cash flows were discounted at 6.00% based on our purchase yield.

The evaluation uses an adjusted loan-to-value ratio as part of our evaluation of whether the unrealized losses on these securities are temporary or other-than-temporary. The adjusted loan to value ratio is based on the original loan to value ratio inherent in the security, adjusted for changes in housing prices, prepayment speeds, default rates and credit enhancements. A higher adjusted loan to value ratio indicates a greater likelihood that projected cash flows may result in losses. A shortfall between our current amortized cost and the present value of expected cash flows we are likely to collect, based on all available information, is referred to as the credit loss, which is the amount recognized in net income.

Based on our evaluation, no portion of the unrealized loss for the security was identified as credit impairment and charged to earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

The following table shows a roll forward of the amount related to credit losses recognized on debt securities held by the Company for which a portion of an other-than-temporary impairment was recognized in other comprehensive income.

At March 31, 2011, the balance of Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of Atlanta stock held by the Company is $2.1 million. On May 11, 2010 the FHLB announced that it would pay a dividend for the first quarter of 2010. On June 30, 2010, the FHLB also announced its intentions of repurchasing up to $300 million of its stockholders’ capital that its “members” owned in excess of amounts the members are required to own. This repurchase was transacted on July 15, 2010. On July 29, 2010 the FHLB announced that it would pay a dividend for the second quarter of 2010. On October 29, 2010 the FHLB announced that it would pay a dividend for the third quarter of 2010. The FHLB also announced on October 29, 2010 its intentions of repurchasing up to $300 million of its stockholders’ capital that its “members” owned in excess of amounts the members are required to own. This repurchase did take place on November 15, 2010. On March 29, 2011 a dividend in the amount of $4,000 was paid for the 4^th quarter of 2010. On April 8, 2011 the FHLB redeemed $105,000 of its outstanding stock representing excess capital. Given this, management believes that its investment in FHLB stock was not other-than-temporarily impaired as of March 31, 2011. However, there can be no assurance that the impact of recent or future legislation on the Federal Home Loan Banks will not also cause a change in the value of the FHLB stock held by the Company.

At March 31, 2011, $4.2 million of the $14.2 million of impaired loans was attributed to ten troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) and represented $113,000 of the $810,000 valuation allowance. Eight of the ten TDRs were accruing interest as of March 31, 2011. At December 31, 2010 $4.6 million of the $20.2 million of impaired loans was attributed to twelve TDRs and represented $273,000 of the $695,000 valuation allowance. Eight of the twelve TDRs were accruing interest as of December 31, 2010. Impaired loans of $6.5 million at March 31, 2011 had no valuation allowances. Impaired loans of $13.4 million at December 31, 2010 had no valuation allowances.

Loan Origination/Risk Management. The Company has certain lending policies and procedures in place that are designed to maximize loan income within an acceptable level of risk. Management reviews and approves these policies and procedures on a regular basis. A reporting system supplements the review process by providing management with frequent reports related to loan production, loan quality, concentrations of credit, loan delinquencies and non-performing and potential problem loans. Diversification in the loan portfolio is a means of managing risk associated with fluctuations in economic conditions.

Commercial and industrial loans are underwritten after evaluating and understanding the borrowers’ ability to operate profitably and prudently expand its business. Underwriting standards are designed to promote relationship banking rather than transactional banking. Once it is determined that the borrower’s management possesses sound ethics and solid business acumen, the Company’s management examines current and projected cash flows to determine the ability of the borrower to repay their obligations as agreed. Commercial and industrial loans are primarily made based on the identified cash flows of the borrower and secondarily on the underlying collateral provided by the borrower. The cash flows of borrowers, however, may not be as expected and the collateral securing these loans may fluctuate in value. Most commercial and industrial loans are secured by the assets being financed or other business assets such as accounts receivable, inventory or equipment and usually incorporate a personal guarantee; however, some short-term loans may be made on an unsecured basis. In the case of loans secured by accounts receivable, the availability of the funds for the repayment of these loans may be substantially dependent on the ability of the borrower to collect amounts due from its customers.

Commercial real estate and commercial mortgage loans are subject to underwriting standards and processes similar to commercial and industrial loans, in addition to those of real estate loans. These loans are viewed primarily as cash flow loans and secondarily as loans secured by real estate. Commercial real estate lending typically involves higher loan principal amounts and the repayment of these loans is generally largely dependent on the successful operation of the property securing the loan or the business conducted on the property securing the loan. Commercial real estate loans may be more adversely affected by conditions in real estate markets or the general economy. The properties securing the Corporation’s commercial real estate portfolio are diverse in terms of type. Management monitors and evaluates commercial real estate loans based on collateral, geography and risk grade criteria. As a general rule, the Company avoids financing single-purpose projects unless other underwriting factors are present to help mitigate risk. The Company also utilizes third-party experts to provide insight and guidance about economic conditions and trends affecting market areas it serves. In addition, management tracks the level of owner-occupied commercial real estate loans versus non-owner occupied loans. At March 31, 2011, approximately 50.3% of the outstanding principal balance of the Company’s commercial real estate loans were secured by owner-occupied properties.

With respect to loans to developers and builders that are secured by non-owner occupied properties that the Company may originate from time to time, the Company generally requires the borrower to have an existing relationship with Company and have a proven record of success. Commercial and Residential Construction loans are underwritten utilizing independent appraisal reviews, sensitivity analysis of absorption and lease rates and financial analysis of the developers and property owners. Construction loans are generally based upon estimates of costs and value associated with the complete project. These estimates may be inaccurate. Construction loans often involve the disbursement of substantial funds with the repayment substantially dependent on the success of the ultimate project. Sources of repayment for these types of loans may be pre-committed permanent loans from approved long-term lenders, sales of developed property or an interim loan commitment from the Company until permanent financing is obtained. These loans are closely monitored by on-site inspections and are considered to have higher risks than other real estate loans due to their ultimate repayment being sensitive to interest rate changes, governmental regulation, general economic conditions and the availability of long-term financing.

Most residential mortgage loans originated by the Company are sold into the secondary market adhering to secondary market underwriting requirements. However, residential mortgage loans retained in-house are underwritten with a preference for first liens against the borrowers’ primary residence, generally located in the Company’s target market area. In-house residential mortgages must meet loan-to-value appraisal and debt ratio guidelines.

The Company originates consumer loans utilizing a computer-based credit score analysis to supplement the underwriting process. To monitor and manage consumer loan risk, policies and procedures are developed and modified, as needed, jointly by line and staff personnel. This activity, coupled with relatively small loan amounts that are spread across many individual borrowers, minimize risk. Additionally, trend and outlook reports are reviewed by management on a regular basis.

Underwriting standards for home equity loans are heavily influenced by statutory requirements, which include, but are not limited to, a maximum loan-to-value percentage of 90%, collection remedies, the number of such loans a borrower can have at one time and documentation requirements.

The Company maintains an independent loan review function that reviews and validates the credit risk program on a periodic basis. Results of these reviews are presented to management. The loan review process compliments and reinforces the risk identification and assessment decisions made by lenders and credit personnel, as well as the Company’s policies and procedures.

Concentrations of Credit. Most of the Company’s lending activity occurs within Alamance and Guilford Counties and surrounding areas in the state of North Carolina. The majority of the Company’s loan portfolio consists of commercial and industrial and commercial real estate loans. As of March 31, 2011, there was one concentration of loans related to a single industry, residential real estate, in excess of 11% of total loans.

The Company had loan and deposit relationships with most of its directors and executive officers and with companies with which certain directors and executive officers are associated. The following is a reconciliation of loans directly outstanding to executive officers, directors and their affiliates (amounts in thousands):


Balance at December 31, 2009	$	9,659
New loans		3,190
Principal repayments		(2,694	)


Balance at December 31, 2010		10,155

New loans		-
Principal repayments		(290	)


Balance at March 31, 2011	$	9,865

As a matter of policy, these loans and credit lines are approved by the Bank’s Board of Directors and are made with interest rates, terms, and collateral requirements comparable to those required of other borrowers. In the opinion of management, these loans do not involve more than the normal risk of collectability.

Non-Accrual and Past Due Loans. The following past due and nonaccrual policy applies to all classes of loans. Loans are considered past due if the required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were due. Loans are placed on non-accrual status when, in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payment obligations as they become due, as well as when required by regulatory provisions. Loans may be placed on non-accrual status regardless of whether or not such loans are considered past due. When interest accrual is discontinued, all unpaid accrued interest is reversed. Interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received in excess of principal due. Loans are returned to accrual status when all principal and interest amounts contractually are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

Charge-off of Uncollectible Loans. When any loan or portion thereof becomes uncollectible, the loan will be charged down or charged off against the allowance for loan and lease losses. Residential mortgages are charged-off or written down to fair value when the loan has been foreclosed and the balance exceeds the market value of the collateral. Home equity lines of credit are either charged-off or written down to fair value, when it is determined that there is not sufficient equity in the loan to cover the Company’s exposure. Loans in any portfolio may be charged-off prior to the policies described above when a loss confirming event occurred, such as bankruptcy (unsecured), continued delinquency, or receipt of an asset valuation indicating collateral deficiency for an asset serving as the sole source of repayment.

Impaired Loans. The following impaired loan policy applies to all classes of loans. Impaired loans are considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable the Company will be unable to collect all amounts in accordance with the original contractual terms of the loan agreement, including scheduled principal and interest payments. Impairment is evaluated in total for smaller-balance loans of a similar nature and on an individual loan basis for other loans. If a loan is impaired, a specific valuation allowance is allocated, if necessary, so that the loan is reported net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. Interest payments on impaired loans are typically applied to principal unless collectability of the principal amount is reasonably assured, in which case interest is recognized on a cash basis. Impaired loans, or portions thereof, are charged off when deemed uncollectable. Year-end impaired loans are set forth in the following tables.

Credit Quality Indicators. As part of the on-going monitoring of the credit quality of the Company’s loan portfolio, management tracks certain credit quality indicators including trends related to (i) the weighted–average risk grade of commercial loans, (ii) the level of classified commercial loans, (iii) net charge-offs, (iv) non-performing loans (see details above) and (v) the general economic conditions in the state of North Carolina.

The Company utilizes a risk grading matrix to assign a risk grade to each of its commercial loans. Loans are graded on a scale of 1 to 9. A description of the general characteristics of the 9 grades is as follows:

•

Grade 1 – Virtually no risk – Credits in this grade are virtually risk-free. Credits are secured by assignment of certificates of deposits issued by the Company, US Treasury notes or properly margined, readily marketable securities. Positive control must be maintained by the Company. The repayment program is well-defined and achievable and repayment sources numerous.

•

Grade 2 – Minimal credit risk – This grade is reserved for new and existing loans where the borrower has documented significant overall financial strength. A liquid financial statement with substantial liquid assets, particularly relative to the debts. Borrowers are required to show excellent sources of repayment, with no significant identifiable risk of collection.

•

Grade 3 – Average credit risk – These loans have excellent sources of repayment, with no significant identifiable risk of collection. The borrowers have documented historical cash flow that meets or exceeds required minimum Company’s guidelines. The borrower must have adequate secondary sources to liquidate the debt, or liquidation value for the net worth of the borrower or guarantor.

- 18 -

MIDCAROLINA FINANCIAL CORPORATION

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE E - LOANS (Continued)

•

Grade 4 – Average credit risk – These loans have adequate sources of repayment, with little identifiable risk of collection.

•

Grade 5 – Above average credit risk – These loans show signs of weakness in either adequate sources of repayment or collateral, but have demonstrated mitigating factors that minimize the risk of delinquency or loss.

•

Grade 6 – Special mention – These loans have clearly defined weaknesses in primary source of repayment that, if not corrected, could cause a loss to the Company. The loans constitute an undue and unwarranted credit risk to the Company, but are not considered so severe as to meet the definition of Substandard.

•

Grade 7 – Substandard – This grade includes loans that are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligator or of the collateral pledged. The loans have well defined weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

•

Grade 8 – Doubtful – This category has the weaknesses inherent in substandard loans and the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable. The loans are not yet graded as loss because certain events may occur that could salvage the outstanding debt such as the injection of capital, alternative financing is obtained, or the pledging of additional collateral. Doubtful is a temporary grade where loss is anticipated but is not quantified with any degree of accuracy.

•

Grade 9 – Loss – These loans are considered uncollectable and of such little value that their continuance as a bankable asset is not warranted. “Loss” is not intended to imply that the loan or some portion of it will never be paid, nor does it in any way imply that there has been a forgiveness of debt.

NOTE F - ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The allowance for loan losses is a reserve established through a provision for possible loan losses charged to expense, which represents management’s best estimate of probable losses that have been incurred within the existing portfolio of loans. The allowance, in the judgment of management, is necessary to reserve for estimated loan losses and risks inherent in the loan portfolio. The Company’s allowance for possible loss methodology includes allowance allocations calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 310, Receivables, and loan allowance allocations calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 450, Contingencies. Accordingly, the methodology is based on historical loss experience by type of credit and internal risk grade, specific homogeneous risk pools and specific loss allocations, with adjustments for current events and conditions. The Company’s process for determining the appropriate level of the allowance for possible loan losses is designed to account for credit deterioration as it occurs. The provision for possible loan losses reflects loan quality trends, including the levels of and trends related to non-accrual loans, past due loans, potential problem loans, criticized loans and net charge-offs or recoveries, among other factors. The provision for possible loan losses also reflects the totality of actions taken on all loans for a particular period. In other words, the amount of the provision reflects not only the necessary increases in the allowance for possible loan losses related to newly identified criticized loans, but it also reflects actions taken related to other loans including among other things, any necessary increases or decreases in required allowances for specific loans or loan pools.

The level of the allowance reflects management’s continuing evaluation of industry concentrations, specific credit risks, loan loss experience, current loan portfolio quality, present economic, political and regulatory conditions and unidentified losses inherent in the current loan portfolio. Portions of the allowance may be allocated for specific credits; however, the entire allowance is available for any credit that, in management’s judgment, should be charged off. While management utilizes its best judgment and information available, the ultimate adequacy of the allowance is dependent upon a variety of factors beyond the Company’s control, including, among other things, the performance of the Company’s loan portfolio, the economy, changes in interest rates and the view of the regulatory authorities toward loan classifications.

The Company’s allowance for possible loan losses consists of three elements: (i) specific valuation allowance determined in accordance with ASC Topic 310 based on probable losses on specific loans; (ii) historical valuation allowances determined in accordance with ASC Topic 450 based on historical loan loss experience for similar loans with similar characteristics and trends, adjusted, as necessary, to reflect the impact of current conditions; and (iii) general valuation allowances determined in accordance with ASC Topic 450 based on general conditions and other qualitative risk factors both internal and external to the Company.

The allowance established for probable losses on specific loans are based on a regular analysis and evaluation of problem loans. Loans are classified based on an internal credit risk grading process that evaluates, among other things; (i) obligor’s ability to repay; (ii) the underlying collateral, if any; and (iii) the economic environment and industry in which the borrower operates. This analysis is performed at the relationship manager level for all commercial loans. When a loan has a calculated grade of 7 or higher a special assets officer analyzes the loan to determine whether the loan is impaired and, if impaired, the need to specifically allocate a portion of the allowance for possible loan losses to the loan. Specific valuation allowances are determined by analyzing the borrower’s ability to repay amounts owed, collateral deficiencies, the relative risk grade of the loan and economic conditions affecting the borrower’s industry, among other things.

Historical valuation allowances are calculated based on the historical loss experience of specific types of loans and the internal risk grade of such loans at the time they were charged-off. The Company calculates historical loss ratios for pools of similar loans with similar characteristics based on the proportion of actual charge-offs experienced to the total population of loans in the pool. The historical loss ratios are periodically updated based on actual charge-off experience. A historical valuation allowance is established for each pool of similar loans based on the product of the historical loss ratio and the total dollar amount of the loans in the pool. The Company’s pools of similar loans include similar risk-graded groups of commercial and industrial loans, commercial real estate loans, consumer real estate loans and consumer and other loans.

NOTE F - ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES (Continued)

General valuation allowances are based on general economic conditions and other qualitative risk factors both internal and external to the Company. In general, such valuation allowances are determined by evaluating among other things; (i) the experience, ability and effectiveness of the Bank’s lending management and staff; (ii) the effectiveness of the Company’s loan policies, procedures and internal controls; (iii) changes in asset quality; (iv) changes in loan portfolio volume; (v) the composition and concentrations of credit; (vi) the impact of competition on loan structuring and pricing; (vii) the effectiveness of the internal loan review function; (viii) the impact of environmental risks on portfolio risks: and (ix) the impact of rising interest rates on portfolio risk. Management evaluates the degree of risk that each one of these components has on the quality of the loan portfolio on a quarterly basis. Each component is determined to have either a high, moderate or low degree of risk. The results are then input into a “general allocation matrix” to determine an appropriate general valuation allowance.

Included in the general valuation allowances are allocations for groups of similar loans with risk characteristics that exceed certain concentration limits established by management. Concentration risk limits have been established, among other things, for certain industry concentrations, large balance and highly leveraged credit relationships that exceed specified risk grades, and loans originated with policy exceptions that exceed specified risk grades.

Loans identified as losses by management, internal loan review and/or bank examiners are charged-off. Furthermore, consumer loan accounts are charged-off automatically based on regulatory requirements.

An analysis of activity in the allowance for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 follows:

NOTE H - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company adopted FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, effective January 1, 2009, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The Company utilizes fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. Securities available-for-sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. From time to time, the Company may be required to record at fair value other assets on a nonrecurring basis, such as loans held for sale and other certain assets. These nonrecurring fair value adjustments typically involve application of lower of cost or market accounting write-downs of individual assets.

The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value.

Investment Securities Available-for-Sale

Investment securities available-for-sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted prices, if available. If quoted prices are not available, fair values are measured using independent pricing models or other model-based valuation techniques such as present value of future cash flows, adjusted for the security’s credit rating, prepayment assumptions and other factors such as credit loss assumptions. Level 1 securities include those traded on an active exchange, such as the New York Stock Exchange, U.S. Treasury securities that are traded by dealers or brokers in active over-the-counter markets and money market funds. Level 2 securities include U.S. Agency securities, mortgage-backed securities issued by government sponsored entities, municipal bonds, private label collateralized mortgage obligations and corporate debt securities. Securities classified as Level 3 include asset-backed securities and corporate debt securities in less liquid markets.

Loans Held for Sale

Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or market value. The fair value of loans held for sale is based on what secondary markets are currently offering for portfolios with similar characteristics. As such, the Company classifies loans subject to nonrecurring fair value adjustments as Level 2.

NOTE H - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (Continued)

Loans

The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. However, from time to time, a loan is considered impaired and an allowance for loan losses is established. Loans for which it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement are considered impaired. Once a loan is identified as impaired, management measures impairment on an individual basis. The fair value of impaired loans is estimated using one of several methods, including collateral value, market value of similar debt, enterprise value, liquidation value and discounted cash flows. Those impaired loans not requiring an allowance represent loans for which the fair value of the expected repayments or collateral exceed the recorded investments in such loans. At March 31, 2011, the Company identified impaired loans of $14.2 million. Of this total, $1.8 million required a specific allowance totaling $717,000, which was charged off resulting in a net fair value of $1.0 million, in addition to $7.7 million in impaired loans maintaining a specific reserve of $810,000 at quarter end for a combined net fair value of impaired loans of $7.9 million. At December 31, 2010, the Company identified impaired loans of $20.2 million. Of this total, $9.1 million required a specific allowance totaling $2.1 million, which was charged off prior to year-end resulting in a net fair value of $7.0 million, in addition to $6.7 million in impaired loans maintaining a specific reserve of $695,000 at year-end for a net fair value of impaired loans of $13.0 million. The determination of impairment was based on the estimated fair market value of collateral for each loan determined through the use of appraisals and subjected to further discounts by management for age of appraisals, geography of the collateral and historical experience in selling similar types of collateral, which are considered to be Level 3 inputs.

Foreclosed Real Estate

Foreclosed real estate is initially recorded at the lesser of fair value or the balance of the foreclosed loan, less cost to sell, at the date of foreclosure. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised values of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral. When fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value, the Company records the foreclosed real estate as nonrecurring Level 2. In situations where current appraised values are unavailable or it is determined that the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, management will rely on significant discounts to account for the age of the most current appraised value available, geography of the foreclosed real estate and historical experience in selling similar types of foreclosed real estate. The Company records the foreclosed real estate under these significant unobservable inputs as nonrecurring Level 3.

Their were no significant transfers between the valuation of financial assets or liabilities between Levels 1 and 2 in the valuation hierarchy below. The following table summarizes quantitative disclosures about the fair value measurement for each category of assets carried at fair value as of March 31, 2011 (in thousands):

NOTE I - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

ASC Topic 825 Financial Instruments, requires a company to disclose on an interim and annual basis the fair value of its financial instruments whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, where it is practical to estimate that value.

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holding of a particular financial instrument. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in the estimates. Finally, the fair value estimates presented herein are based on pertinent information available to management as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:

Cash and Due from Banks, Federal Funds Sold and Interest-Earning Deposits

The carrying amounts for cash and due from banks, federal funds sold and interest-earning deposits approximate fair value because of the short maturities of those instruments. These instruments are considered cash and cash equivalents.

Investment Securities

Fair value for investment securities is based on quoted market price if such information is available. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities. The carrying value of Federal Home Loan Bank stock approximates fair value based on the redemption provisions.

Loans Held for Sale

Fair values of mortgage loans held for sale are based on commitments on hand from investors or prevailing market prices.

Loans

For certain homogeneous categories of loans, such as residential mortgages, fair value is estimated using the quoted market prices for securities backed by similar loans, adjusted for differences in loan characteristics. The fair value of other types of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. However, the values derived likely do not represent exit prices due to the distressed market conditions; therefore, incremental market risks and liquidity discounts of approximately 8% were subtracted to reflect the illiquid and distressed conditions at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

Investment in Life Insurance

The carrying value of life insurance approximates fair value because this investment is carried at cash surrender value, as determined by the insurer.

Deposits, Short-term Borrowings and Long-term Debt

Deposits and short-term borrowings without a stated maturity, or insignificant term to maturity, including demand, interest bearing demand, savings accounts and FHLB borrowings are reported at their carrying value. No value has been assigned to the core intangible value of deposits. For other types of deposits and long-term debt, with fixed rates and longer maturities is estimated based upon the discounted value of projected future cash outflows using the rates currently offered for instruments of similar remaining maturities.

NOTE I - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)

Accrued Interest Receivable and Accrued Interest Payable

The carrying amounts of accrued interest receivable and accrued interest payable are assumed to approximate fair values.

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk

With regard to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk discussed in Note B, it is not practicable to estimate the fair value of future financing commitments.

The following table presents the carrying values and estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010:

NOTE J - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The FASB has issued ASU 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. This ASU requires some new disclosures and clarifies some existing disclosure requirements about fair value measurement as set forth in Codification Subtopic 820-10. The FASB’s objective is to improve these disclosures and, thus, increase the transparency in financial reporting. Specifically, ASU 2010-06 amends Codification Subtopic 820-10 to now require:

•

A reporting entity to disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers; and

•

In the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs, a reporting entity should present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements.

In addition, ASU 2010-06 clarifies the requirements of the following existing disclosures:

•

For purposes of reporting fair value measurement for each class of assets and liabilities, a reporting entity needs to use judgment in determining the appropriate classes of assets and liabilities; and

•

A reporting entity should provide disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements.

ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations.

ASU 2010-20, Receivables (Topic 310): Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses, will help investors assess the credit risk of a company’s receivables portfolio and the adequacy of its allowance for credit losses held against the portfolios by expanding credit risk disclosures. This ASU requires more information about the credit quality of financing receivables in the disclosures to financial statements, such as aging information and credit quality indicators. Both new and existing disclosures must be disaggregated by portfolio segment or class. The disaggregation of information is based on how a company develops its allowance for credit losses and how it manages its credit exposure.

The amendments in this update apply to all public and nonpublic entities with financing receivables. Financing receivables include loans and trade accounts receivable. However, short-term trade accounts receivable, receivables measured at fair value or lower of cost or fair value, and debt securities are exempt from these disclosure amendments. The effective date of ASU 2010-20 differs for public and nonpublic companies. For public companies, the amendments that require disclosures as of the end of a reporting period are effective for periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The amendments that require disclosures about activity that occurs during a reporting period are effective for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The Company has fully adopted all of the provisions within this standard and has provided all required credit quality disclosures as of the end of this reporting period March 31, 2011.

On April 5, 2011, FASB issued ASU 2011-02, Receivables (Topic 310): A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring, which amends Subtopic 310-40, Receivables: Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors. The objective of this ASU is to provide greater clarity and guidance to assist creditors in determining whether a creditor has granted a concession and whether a debtor is experiencing financial difficulties for purposes of determining whether a restructuring constitutes a troubled debt restructuring. For public entities, the amendments in this ASU are effective for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after June 15, 2011, and should be applied retrospectively to the beginning of the annual period of adoption.

The ASU also states that as a result of applying these amendments, an entity may identify receivables that are newly considered impaired. For purposes of measuring impairment of those receivables, an entity should apply the amendments prospectively for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after June 15, 2011. An entity should disclose the total amount of receivables and the allowance for credit losses as of the end of the period of

Recent Developments

On July 21, 2010, President Obama signed the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, or Dodd-Frank Act, into law. This new legislation makes extensive changes to the laws regulating financial products and services as well as firms and companies offering financial products and services. The Dodd-Frank Act also alters certain corporate governance matters affecting public companies. The legislation requires substantial rulemaking and mandates numerous additional studies, the results of which could impact future legislative and regulatory action. We are in the process of evaluating this new legislation and determining the extent to which it will impact our current and future operations.

Among other things that could have an impact on our operations and activities, the Dodd-Frank Act amends the manner for calculating the assessment base for deposit insurance premiums paid to the FDIC, and it requires the federal banking agencies to issue new rules to implement new minimum leverage and risk-based capital requirements for insured depository institutions. It also requires the Securities and Exchange Commission to complete studies and develop rules or approve stock exchange rules regarding various investor protection issues, including shareholder access to the proxy process, and various matters pertaining to executive compensation and compensation committee oversight. Additionally, the Act establishes the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, or Bureau, as a new, independent federal agency,

- 33 -

which will have broad rulemaking, supervisory and enforcement authority over financial institutions providing consumer financial products and services. Examples of such products and services include deposit products, residential mortgages, home-equity loans and credit cards. Under the Dodd-Frank Act, states are permitted to adopt more stringent consumer protection laws, and state attorneys general can enforce those laws as well as consumer protection rules issued by the Bureau.

Financial Condition at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010

During the three-month period ending March 31, 2011, our total assets increased by $866,000 to $532.1 million from $531.2 million at December 31, 2010. At March 31, 2011, loans totaled $386.9 million, a decrease of $13.0 million, or 3.24%, for the three months. Our loan portfolio experienced decreases in real estate and commercial loans in the amount of $10.5 million and $1.4 million respectively. Consumer loans decreased $1.0 million. Federal funds sold and interest-earning deposits increased by $15.9 million, to $28.1 million.

Our total liquid assets, which include cash and due from banks, federal funds sold and interest-earning deposits at Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of Atlanta, investment securities available for sale and loans held for sale increased $11.7 million during the three months, to $118.5 million or 22.28% of total assets at March 31, 2011 versus $106.8 million, or 19.86% of total assets, at December 31, 2010. At March 31, 2011, investment securities available for sale totaled $88.1 million, a decrease of $2.1 million, or 2.28%, compared to December 31, 2010.

Deposits continue to be our primary funding source. At March 31, 2011, deposits totaled $471.8 million, an increase of $5.9 million, or 1.27%, from year-end 2010. Included in the deposit balances are $91.2 million of brokered certificates of deposit, a decrease of $10.0 million, or 9.08%, from year-end. We also utilize borrowings from the FHLB and Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”) to support balance sheet management and growth. Borrowings from the FHLB decreased $5.0 million or 33.33% to $10.0 million at March 31, 2011, from $15.0 million at year-end 2010. We had no outstanding balances with the FRB at March 31, 2011 or December 31, 2010.

Our capital position remains strong, with all of our regulatory capital ratios at levels that categorize us as “well capitalized” under federal bank regulatory capital guidelines. At March 31, 2011, our shareholders’ equity totaled $40.6 million, an increase of $190,000 from the December 31, 2010 balance.

- 34 -

The increase resulted primarily from net income available to common shareholders of $242,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Comparison of Results of Operations for the

Three Months Ended March 31, 2011 and 2010

Net Income. Our net income available to common shareholders for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $242,000, an increase of $580,000, or 171.60%, from net loss attributed to common shareholders of $338,000 for the same three-month period in 2010. Net income per diluted share of $0.05 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2011 increased $0.12 when compared to the prior year period. Our average asset balances decreased $9.1 million or 1.67%, as total assets averaged $535.9 million during the current three-month period compared to $545.0 million in the comparative prior year period. Our interest rate spread and net yield on average interest-earning assets increased 20 basis points and 13 basis points, respectively. Net interest income increased $55,000, non-interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 decreased in the amount of $141,000, the provision for loan losses decreased $1.4 million, and non-interest expenses increased $581,000, as compared to the amounts of those items for the comparative period.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased by $55,000, or 1.25%, to $4.5 million for the three-months ended March 31, 2011. Our increase in net interest income reflects a $628,000 decrease in interest income offset by a $683,000 decrease in interest expense. The rates earned on a significant portion of our loans adjust immediately when index rates such as prime rate change. Conversely, most of our interest-bearing liabilities, including certificates of deposit and borrowings, have rates fixed until maturity. As a result, interest rate reductions will generally result in an immediate drop in our interest income on loans, with a more delayed impact on interest expense because reductions in interest costs will only occur upon renewals of certificates of deposit or fixed rate FHLB advances. Conversely, interest rate increases should result in an immediate increase in our interest income on loans, with a more delayed impact on interest expense because increases in interest costs will occur upon renewals of certificates of deposits or borrowings.

Average interest-earning assets during the first quarter of 2011 decreased $14.7 million, or 2.82%, as compared with the same period in 2010. Our average yield on total interest-earning assets decreased by 37 basis points from 5.16% to 4.79%. Our average total interest-bearing liabilities decreased by $12.5 million, or 2.72%. Our average cost of total interest-bearing liabilities decreased 56 basis points from 1.93% to 1.37%. Our markets are extremely competitive for deposits. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, our net interest spread was 3.42% and our net interest margin was 3.58%. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, our net interest rate spread was 3.23% and our net interest margin was 3.45%.

Provision for Loan Losses. The Bank recorded $1.2 million in the provision for loan losses for the three-month period ended March 31, 2011, a decrease of $1.4 million from the $2.6 million provision made in the first quarter of 2010. Provisions for loan losses are charged to income to bring the allowance for loan losses to a level deemed appropriate by management. In evaluating the allowance for loan losses, management considers factors that include growth, composition and industry diversification of the portfolio, historical loan loss experience, current delinquency levels, level of impaired loans, adverse situations that may affect a borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral, prevailing economic conditions and other relevant factors. The first quarter 2011 provision was impacted by the on-going weakened economy and real estate market. Specifically, builder/construction loans continue to experience deterioration in their collateral values as developers experience decreased rates of building lot inventory turnover. Although the Bank reduced its total exposure to construction loans by $5.8 million or 13.15% from $43.9 million at December 31, 2010 to $38.2 million at March 31, 2011, risk to property value depreciation continues to persist in the Bank’s construction loan portfolio. Real estate developers’ ability to service debt for extended time periods remains tentative as cash flows have deteriorated.

- 35 -

Total loans outstanding, net of loans held for sale, decreased $13.0 million during the first quarter of 2011 compared to December 31, 2010. At March 31, 2011, the allowance for loan losses was $9.7 million, an increase of $465,000, or 5.04%, from the $9.2 million at the end of 2010. The allowance represented 2.50% and 2.31%, respectively, of loans outstanding at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, net of loans held for sale. The increase in the allowance is reflective of the ongoing economic and real estate market deterioration experienced locally as well as nationally. At March 31, 2011, the Bank had $3.9 million in nonaccrual loans. At year-end 2010, the Bank had $9.1 million in nonaccrual loans.

Non-Interest Income. For the first quarter of 2011, non-interest income decreased $141,000, or 20.70%, to $540,000 from $681,000 for the same period the prior year. Changes for the three months ended March 31, 2011 include a decrease of $44,000 in service charges and fees on deposits (reflecting the movement in the industry to reduce service charge fees on certain debit card and ATM transactions), a gain on sale of investments in the amount of $45,000 for the first quarter of 2010 compared to no activity for investment sales in the first quarter of 2011, a decrease in income from cash value of life insurance of $21,000 reflecting a one-time gain from moving several insurance policies to a higher rated carrier during the first quarter of 2010, a decrease in gains on sale of mortgage loan activities of $2,000, an increase in income from brokerage services of $9,000, an increase of $18,000 resulting from a decrease in impairment on available-for-sale securities, and a decrease in all other non-interest income of $56,000 which is primarily the result of proceeds received from insurance claims during the 2010 period.

Non-Interest Expense. For the first quarter of 2011, non-interest expense increased $581,000, or 20.44%, to $3.4 million from $2.8 million for the same period the prior year. Changes for the three months ended March 31, 2011 include an increase of $52,000 in salaries and employee benefits reflecting the hiring of problem loan specialists, an increase in other outside service expense of $62,000 reflecting merger related charges, an increase of $42,000 in data processing expense reflecting the cost of leasing information technology hardware and increased back-up, redundancy and security of hardware and data, an increase in deposit and other insurance expense of $124,000 resulting from increased FDIC insurance premium expense, a decrease in professional and other services of $111,000 related to decreased attorney and accounting fees, an increase of $220,000 in net losses on sale of foreclosed real estate, a decrease in advertising expense of $38,000, and an increase in all other non-interest expense of $284,000, primarily resulting from problem loan collection activities.

Provision for Income Taxes. Our provision for income tax expense, as a percentage of income before income taxes, was 24.35% for the three months ended March 31, 2011. A tax benefit was recorded for the first quarter of 2010.

Allowance for Loan Losses and Problem Loans

Determining the allowance for loan losses is based on a number of factors, many of which are subject to judgments made by management. At the origination of each commercial loan, management assesses the relative risk of the loan and assigns a corresponding risk grade. To ascertain that the credit quality is maintained after the loan is booked, a loan review officer performs an annual review of all unsecured loans over a predetermined amount, a sample of loans within each lender’s authority, and a sample of the entire loan pool. Loans are reviewed for credit quality, sufficiency of credit and collateral documentation, proper loan approval, covenant, policy and procedure adherence and continuing accuracy of the loan grade. The Loan Review Manager reports directly to the Chief Credit Officer and the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors.

The allowance for loan losses is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb probable losses inherent in existing loans, based on evaluations of the collectability of loans and prior loan loss experience. The allowance calculation consists of two primary components: (1) a component for individual impairment and (2) a general reserve applied to all other loans, which is comprised of a

- 36 -

quantitative component based on historical data and a qualitative component based on qualitative factors. The allowance is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that the collectability of the principal is unlikely.

Based on the quarterly allowance calculation, management recorded a provision of $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to $2.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Net charge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2011 were $735,000 or 0.19% of average loans, compared to $1.7 million, or 0.39% of average loans, for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

An analysis of the allowance for loan losses is as follows:

Net charge-offs to average loans during the period		0.19%		0.39%

Allowance to loans, net of loans held for sale at end of period		2.50%		1.90%

The evaluation of the allowance for loan losses is inherently subjective. Management uses the best information available to establish this estimate. However, if factors such as economic conditions differ substantially from assumptions, or if amounts and timing of future cash flows expected to be received on impaired loans vary substantially from estimates, future adjustments to the allowance for loan losses may be necessary. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowance for loan losses. These agencies may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance for loan losses based on their judgments about all relevant

- 37 -

information available to them at the time of their examination. Any adjustments to original estimates are made in the period in which the factors and other considerations indicate that adjustments to the allowance for loan losses are necessary.

The following is a summary of nonperforming assets and past due loans for the periods ended as presented:

Foreclosed assets which include foreclosed real estate and other real property held for sale, increased to $10.2 million at March 31, 2011, from $7.2 million at December 31, 2010. The Company is actively marketing all of its foreclosed real properties. Foreclosed assets are initially recorded at the lesser of fair value or the balance of the foreclosed loan, less costs to sell at date of foreclosure. Subsequent declines in fair value are charged to earnings. The Company obtains updated appraisals and/or valuations for all foreclosed assets.

- 38 -

Impaired loans primarily consist of nonperforming loans and troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) but can include other loans which are performing according to their terms but have been identified by management as being impaired as a result of insufficient collateralization, cash flows or other criteria. As of March 31, 2011, the Bank identified impaired loans of $14.2 million. Of these impaired loans, $7.7 million were identified to have a specific allowance impairment of $810,000. At December 31, 2010, $20.2 million of loans were determined to be impaired. Of this total, $6.7 million required a specific allowance totaling $695,000. The increase in impaired loans requiring a specific allowance is primarily due to the ongoing weakness experienced in the economy and real estate markets. For impaired loans where legal action has been taken to foreclose, the loan is charged down to estimated fair value, and a specific reserve is not established

Loans are classified as TDRs by the Company when certain modifications are made to the loan terms and concessions are granted to the borrowers due to financial difficulty experienced by those borrowers. Of the $4.2 million of TDRs at March 31, 2011, loans totaling $3.9 million were accruing interest and were not included in nonperforming loans. The Company only restructures loans for borrowers in financial difficulty that have a designed viable business plan to fully pay off all obligations, including outstanding debt, interest and fees, either by generating additional revenue from the business or through liquidation of assets. Generally, these loans are restructured to provide the borrower additional time to execute their plans. The performing TDRs were performing prior to restructuring. They were not not placed in nonaccrual status prior to the restructuring, and since the Company expects the borrowers to perform after the restructuring (based on modified note terms), the loans continue to accrue interest at the restructured rate. The Company will continue to closely monitor these loans and will cease accruing interest on them if management believes that the borrowers may not continue to perform based on the restructured note terms. The non-performing TDR’s were performing prior to restructuring and deteriorated after they were modified. All TDRs are considered to be impaired and are evaluated as such in the quarterly allowance calculation.

The following table summarizes TDRs, which are all classified as impaired loans for purposes of the loan loss allowance calculation, as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Market and public confidence in our financial strength and in the strength of financial institutions in general will largely determine our access to appropriate levels of liquidity. This confidence is significantly dependent on our ability to maintain sound asset quality and appropriate levels of capital resources.

Liquidity is defined as our ability to meet anticipated customer demands for funds under credit commitments and deposit withdrawals at a reasonable cost and on a timely basis. Management measures our liquidity position by giving consideration to both on-and off-balance sheet sources of, and demands for, funds on a daily and weekly basis.

Sources of liquidity include cash and cash equivalents, net of federal requirements to maintain reserves against deposit liabilities; investment securities eligible for pledging to secure borrowings from dealers and customers pursuant to securities sold under repurchase agreements; investments available for sale; loan repayments; loan sales; deposits; and borrowings from the FHLB and FRB and from correspondent banks under overnight federal funds credit lines. In addition to interest rate-sensitive deposits, the Bank’s primary demand for liquidity is anticipated fundings under credit commitments to customers as well as meeting the fluctuations of normal deposit withdrawals.

We have maintained an adequate position of liquidity in the form of cash, interest-earning bank deposits, federal funds sold, investment securities and loans held for sale. These liquid assets aggregated $118.5 million at March 31, 2011 compared to $106.8 million at December 31, 2010. Supplementing customer deposits as a source of funding, we have the ability to borrow up to $165.4 million from the FHLB, subject to collateral constraints, with $10.0 million outstanding at March 31, 2011 and $15.0 million outstanding at December 31, 2010. All borrowings with FHLB must be adequately collateralized. We also have the ability to borrow up to $36.5 million from the FRB, subject to collateral constraints. We had no borrowings outstanding with the FRB at March 31, 2011 or December 31, 2010. We believe that our combined aggregate liquidity position is sufficient to meet the funding requirements of loan demand and deposit maturities and withdrawals in the near term.

At March 31, 2011, the Company’s average equity to average asset ratio was 7.56%, and all of the Bank’s capital ratios exceeded the minimums established for a well-capitalized bank by regulatory measures. The Bank’s total risk-based capital ratio at March 31, 2011 was 13.38%.

As discussed in Note K to the unaudited consolidated financial statements included in Part I of this report, during June 2010 and October 2010, respectively, the Bank’s and our Boards of Directors entered into separate Memorandums of Understanding with our respective regulators under which, among other things, the Bank’s Board agreed to not pay any dividend to us without the approval of the FDIC and the N.C. Commission of Banks, and our Board agreed that we will not receive dividends from the Bank, or pay dividends or distributions on our common or preferred stock or trust preferred securities, without the approval of the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond. Dividends we receive from the Bank is our primary source of funds with which we can pay dividends and distributions. As a result, if the Bank’s or our regulators refused to permit the Bank to dividend funds to us, we would be unable to pay dividends and distributions on our preferred stock and trust preferred securities.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We believe there has not been any significant change in the overall analysis of financial instruments considered market risk sensitive, as measured by the factors of contractual maturities, average interest rates and the difference between estimated fair values and book values, since the analysis prepared and presented in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

MidCarolina Financial Corporation’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2011. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures where effective, as of March 31, 2011, to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports filed or submitted by it under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

In conjunction with the above evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, no change in our internal control over financial reporting was identified that occurred during the quarterly period ended March 31, 2011, and that has materially affected, or that is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
