EXPLANATORY NOTE

On April 14, 2011, National Bankshares, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Original 8-K”) to, among other things, report the results of the voting at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company held on April 12, 2011 (the “Annual Meeting”) on a non-binding advisory vote on the frequency of future non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation.  The Company’s Board of Directors has since evaluated the results of that non-binding advisory vote and made a determination as to whether the Company will submit future non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation to the stockholders for consideration every one, two or three years.  The Current Report on Form 8-K/A is being filed to update the disclosure under “Item 5.07, Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders” of the Original 8-K to provide information regarding the Board of Directors’ determination.  No other changes are being made to the Original 8-K.

ITEM 5.07  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

As reported in the Original 8-K, a majority of the shares voted at the Annual Meeting on a non-binding advisory vote on the frequency of future non-binding advisory votes to approve the compensation of named executive officers voted for the Company to hold the votes on an annual basis.  In light of this result and after discussion by the Board of Directors, the Board determined at its meeting on June 8, 2011 that the Company will hold annual non-binding advisory votes to approve the compensation of named executive officers until the next required non-binding advisory vote on the frequency of future non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation.
