Emerge From Operating Agreement
Entered a formal Written Agreement with the
Federal Reserve and the VA Bureau of Financial
Institutions in July 2010
To date, we have fully complied with nearly all of
the requirements.  Three are partially in
compliance, but we believe we have sufficiently
addressed these.
Our goal is to no longer be under the formal
Written Agreement by 2016

Reduce Credit Risk Profile

Maximize Efficiencies
26


Changing Deposit Mix
We have intentionally worked at shifting the deposit mix to
increase non-interest and lower interest deposits and
reduce higher cost time deposits
This will help us in the future to be able to better manage
our interest expenses when interest rates rise in the future
It also establishes a stronger base of deposits that are more
likely to stay with the bank
In the first quarter of 2015, total non-maturity deposits
grew $16.7 million while time deposits decreased $8.6
million

Leverage Technology to Improve Efficiencies,
Compliance and Customer Service Experience
In late 2014, we made decisions to utilize technology to a greater extent
to improve efficiency
In 2015, we are:
Creating a customer contact center for more responsive, more efficient
customer service
Changing the way we do the origination, underwriting, processing, and
documentation of consumer lending
Implementing a technology tool for all bank employees to better serve
our customers and increase cross selling of our various products and
services
Extending mobile banking services including a mobile banking
application which includes mobile deposit capture
Working on implementing online deposit and loan account opening
Exploring a ‘digital’ branch website
Beta testing a “branch of the future” concept that allows us to better
serve our customers and utilize technology to help us do this at the
branch level
29


Optimizing Branch Productivity and Efficiencies
Consolidated the following four branches in the 4
th
quarter
of 2014:
Bland, VA
Norton, VA
Jonesville, VA
Bluewell, WV
Reduced total full-time-equivalent employees by 21 or
7.95%, in 2014 to 243
Reduced salary and employee benefits expenses
Negligible impact on deposits
We continue to monitor our branches and are taking
appropriate actions to maximize overall branch
performance
30


Improve Risk Management
Capabilities
31


Improve Risk Management Capabilities
In the past few years, we have implemented Enterprise Risk
Management Practices
The key areas of risk that we monitor and manage are:
Credit
Interest Rate
Liquidity
Price
Operational
Compliance/ Legal
Strategic
Reputation
We utilize this new management process to help us determine capital levels
needed, to identify where our highest risks are and to place the necessary
attention to these areas to reduce them to more acceptable levels
We believe that we are ahead of many financial institutions in our risk
management practices
Our highest levels of risk are currently related to Credit Risk and Pricing Risk
