FREDERICK COUNTY BANCORP, INC.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1. General:

Frederick County Bancorp, Inc. (the “Bancorp”), the parent company for its wholly-owned subsidiary Frederick County Bank (the “Bank” and together with Bancorp, the “Company”), was organized in September 2003. The Bank was incorporated under the laws of the state of Maryland in August 2000 and commenced banking operations in October 2001. The Bank provides its customers with various banking services. The Bank offers various loan and deposit products to its customers. The Bank’s customers include individuals and commercial enterprises within its principal market area consisting of Frederick County, Maryland. Additionally, the Bank maintains correspondent banking relationships and transacts daily federal funds sales on an unsecured basis with regional correspondent banks. Note 4 discusses the types of securities the Bank invests in. Note 5 discusses the types of lending that the Bank engages in. The Bank does not have any significant concentrations to any one industry or customer. The Company also has a subsidiary called FCBI Statutory Trust I. See Note 7 for additional disclosures.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information, the instructions for Form 10-Q, Regulation S-X, and general practices within the banking industry. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes included in the Company’s 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results shown in this interim report are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any other period or for the full year ending December 31, 2008.

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates and assumptions are based on information available as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and could differ from actual results.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. It clarifies that fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the market in which the reporting entity transacts. This Statement does not require any new fair value measurements, but rather, it provides enhanced guidance to other pronouncements that require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. This Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, with earlier adoption permitted. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No.157. This FSP defers the effective date of SFAS 157 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually), to years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this Statement did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 141, Revised 2007 (SFAS 141R), Business Combinations. SFAS 141R’s objective is to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial reports about a business combination and its effects. SFAS 141R applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after December 31, 2008. The Company does not expect the implementation of SFAS 141R to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements. SFAS 160’s objective is to improve the relevance, comparability, and transparency of the financial information that a reporting entity provides in its consolidated financial statements by establishing accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. SFAS 160 shall be effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company does not expect the implementation of SFAS 160 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS 163, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of SFAS 133. SFAS 163 establishes, among other things, the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and for hedging activities. SFAS 163 amends and expands the disclosure requirements of SFAS 133 with the intent to provide users financial statements with enhanced understanding of: (a) How and why an entity uses derivatives instruments; (b) How derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS 133 and its related interpretations; and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS 163 shall be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company does not expect the implementation of SFAS 163 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. SFAS 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The implementation of SFAS 162 did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 2. Earnings Per Share:

Earnings per share (“EPS”) are disclosed as basic and diluted. Basic EPS is generally computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period, whereas diluted EPS essentially reflects the potential dilution in basic EPS that could occur if other contracts to issue common stock were exercised. As of September 30, 2008 and 2007, no common stock equivalents were excluded from the diluted EPS calculation.

Diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding	1,502,443		1,515,716		1,506,352		1,520,638

Note 3. Employee Stock Option Plan:

The Company maintains an Employee Stock Option Plan that provides for grants of incentive and non-incentive stock options. This plan has been presented to and approved by the Company’s shareholders. The Company follows the guidance of the Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation and No. 123(R) Share-Based Payment. As of December 31, 2006, all outstanding stock options were fully vested. No stock options were granted in 2007 or 2008 and, accordingly, net income and earnings per share have not been affected by stock-based compensation. Any stock-based employee compensation for future grants will be determined at that time using the Black-Scholes or another appropriate option-pricing model.

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (3) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. The Company has not recognized any other-than-temporary impairment in connection with the unrealized losses reflected in the preceding tables. All of these declines can be attributable to increases in interest rates and not a change in credit quality. As Management has the ability and intent to hold debt securities until maturity, or until the unrealized loss is recouped, no declines are deemed to be other than temporary.

Note 7. Trust preferred securities/junior subordinated debentures and other long-term borrowings:

In December 2006, Bancorp completed the private placement of an aggregate of $6,000,000 of trust preferred securities through FCBI Statutory Trust I (the “Trust”), a newly formed trust subsidiary organized under Connecticut law, of which Bancorp owns all of the common securities of $186,000. The principal asset of the Trust is a similar amount of Bancorp’s junior subordinated debentures. The junior subordinated debentures bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.5375% until December 15, 2011, at which time the interest rate becomes a variable rate, adjusted quarterly, equal to 163 basis points over three-month LIBOR. The junior subordinated debentures mature on December 15, 2036, and may be redeemed at par, at Bancorp’s option, on any interest payment date commencing December 15, 2011. The securities are redeemable prior to December 15, 2011, at a premium ranging up to 103.525% of the principal amount thereof, upon the occurrence of certain regulatory or legal events. The obligations of Bancorp with respect to the Trust’s preferred securities constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by Bancorp of Trust’s obligations with respect to the trust preferred securities to the extent set forth in the related guarantee. Subject to certain exceptions and limitations, Bancorp may elect from time to time to defer interest payments on the junior subordinated debentures, resulting in a deferral of distribution payments on the related trust preferred securities. If the Company defers interest payments on the junior subordinated debentures, or otherwise is in default of the obligations, the Company would be prohibited from making dividend payments to its shareholders. The proceeds from this issuance were used to repay a $450,000 short-term debt obligation that matured in January 2007 and the remaining proceeds have been used to supplement the Company’s capital for continued growth and other general corporate purposes.

The trust preferred securities may be included in Tier 1 capital for regulatory capital adequacy purposes up to 25% of Tier 1 capital, net of goodwill after its inclusion. The portion of the trust preferred securities not qualifying as Tier 1 capital may be included as part of total qualifying capital in Tier 2 capital, subject to limitation.

At September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the Company had $10,000,000 in borrowings under its credit facility from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (“FHLB”). There are two convertible advances in the amounts of $5,000,000 each, which are both at a rate of 4.56%, with a maturity dates of April 27, 2012 and September 4, 2012, unless called on April 27, 2009 or September 4, 2010, respectively, by the FHLB. Outstanding advances are secured by collateral consisting of a blanket lien on qualifying loans in the Bank’s residential mortgage loan portfolio.

Note 9. 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan:

The Company has a Section 401(k) profit sharing plan covering employees meeting certain eligibility requirements as to minimum age and years of service. Employees may make voluntary contributions to the Plan through payroll deductions on a pre-tax basis. The Company makes matching contributions of 100% of the employee’s contributions up to 4% of the employee’s salary. A participant’s account under the Plan, together with investment earnings thereon, is normally distributable, following retirement, death, disability or other termination of employment, in a single lump-sum payment.

The Company made contributions to the Plan in the amounts of $106,000 and $100,000 for the first nine-months in 2008 and 2007, respectively; and $35,000 and $29,000 for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Note 10. Shareholders’ Equity:

Capital:

The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory - and possibly additional discretionary - actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company, once it exceeds $500 million in assets, and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company’s and the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company’s and the Bank’s

Table of Contents

capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes that the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject as of September 30, 2008.

As of September 30, 2008, the most recent notification from the regulatory agency categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification which management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

The Company’s and the Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios at September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 are presented in the following tables.

On June 26, 2007, the Company authorized the repurchase of up to 146,000 shares of its common stock, for an aggregate expenditure of not more than $4.5 million, through June 30, 2012, or earlier termination of the program by the Board of Directors. Repurchases, if any, by the Company pursuant to this authorization are expected to enable the Company to repurchase its shares at an attractive price, and to provide a source of liquidity for the Company’s shares. As of September 30, 2008, there have been no shares repurchased by the Company.

Note 11. Fair Value

We group financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are:

Level 1		Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in active exchange markets. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2		Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in less active dealer or broker markets. Valuations are obtained from third party pricing services for identical or comparable assets or liabilities which use observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in active markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3		Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The following table shows details of the financial instruments as of September 30, 2008 for which fair value accounting was applied:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Statements

This management’s discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements relating to Frederick County Bancorp, Inc.’s (“Bancorp”) and Frederick County Bank’s (the “Bank” and together with Bancorp, the “Company”) beliefs, expectations, anticipations and plans regarding, among other things, general economic trends, interest rates, product expansions and other matters. Such forward-looking statements are identified by terminology such as “may”, “will”, “believe”, “expect”, “estimate”, “anticipate”, “likely”, “unlikely”, “continue”, or similar terms and are subject to numerous uncertainties, such as federal monetary policy, inflation, employment, profitability and consumer confidence levels, both nationally and in the Company’s market area, the health of the real estate and construction market in the Company’s market area, the Company’s ability to develop and market new products and to enter new markets, competitive challenges in the Company’s market, legislative changes and other factors, and as such, there can be no assurance that future events will develop in accordance with the forward-looking statements contained herein. Readers are cautioned against placing undue reliance on any such forward-looking statement. In addition, the Company’s past results of operations do not necessarily indicate its future results.

General

The following paragraphs provide an overview of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company. This discussion is intended to assist the readers in their analysis of the accompanying financial statements and notes thereto.

Bancorp, the parent company for the Bank, its wholly-owned subsidiary, was organized in September 2003. The Bank was incorporated under the laws of the state of Maryland in August 2000 and commenced banking operations in October 2001. The Bank provides its customers with various banking services. The Bank offers various loan and deposit products to their customers. The Bank’s customers include individuals and commercial enterprises within its principal market area consisting of Frederick County, Maryland. Additionally, the Bank maintains correspondent banking relationships and transacts daily federal funds sales on an unsecured basis with regional

Table of Contents

correspondent banks. Note 4 discusses the types of securities in which the Bank invests. Note 5 discusses the types of lending in which the Bank engages. The Bank does not have any significant concentrations to any one industry or customer. The Company also has a subsidiary called FCBI Statutory Trust I. See Note 7 for additional disclosures.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and follow general practices within the industry in which it operates. Application of these principles requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates, assumptions, and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements; accordingly, as this information changes, the financial statements could reflect different estimates, assumptions, and judgments. Certain policies inherently have a greater reliance on the use of estimates, assumptions, and judgments and as such have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported. Estimates, assumptions, and judgments are necessary when assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value, when a decline in the value of an asset not carried on the financial statements at fair value warrants an impairment write-down or valuation reserve to be established, or when an asset or liability needs to be recorded contingent upon a future event. Carrying assets and liabilities at fair value inherently results in more financial statement volatility. The fair values and the information used to record valuation adjustments for certain assets and liabilities are based either on quoted market prices or are provided by other third-party sources, when available. The estimates used in management’s assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses require that management make assumptions about matters that are uncertain at the time of estimation. Differences in these assumptions and differences between the estimated and actual losses could have a material effect. For discussions related to the critical accounting policies of the Company, refer to the sections in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis entitled “Income Taxes” and “Allowance for Loan Losses.”

Loans

Loans increased by $2.51 million, or 1.20%, from December 31, 2007, to a balance of $211.52 million as of September 30, 2008, and by $1.15 million, or 0.55% from September 30, 2007. Due to the current stresses on the economy, along with the tightening of the credit markets, the Company has continued to take a more conservative lending approach which has slowed the rate of loan growth. The Company does not anticipate much loan growth over the next few quarters, and possibly will shrink the loan portfolio to maintain adequate liquidity.

Deposits

Deposits grew by $4.03 million, or 1.84%, from December 31, 2007 to a balance of $223.26 million as of September 30, 2008, but dropped by $5.78 million, or 2.52% from September 30, 2007. During the fourth quarter of 2007, the Company decided to slow its deposit growth in response to the slower loan growth as discussed above. Since the deposit growth during the past year has mainly been in certificates of deposit, it was decided to lower these rates to slow the rate of growth in, or to reduce the aggregate amount of these deposits by allowing some of the higher rate certificates of deposit to mature without being renewed.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2008 and 2007

Net income was $315,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2008, as compared to $408,000 of net income for the same period in 2007. The decrease in earnings for this quarter in 2008 is primarily related to a $170,000 increase in provision for loan losses, an increase in operating expenses of $86,000 that was partially offset by an increase in noninterest income of $53,000 and lower taxes in the amount of $41,000. Basic earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 were $0.22 and $0.28, respectively, and were based on weighted-average number of shares outstanding of 1,460,674 and 1,460,602, respectively. Diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 were $0.21 and $0.27, respectively, and were based on weighted-average number of shares outstanding of 1,502,443 and 1,515,716, respectively.

The Company experienced an annualized return on average assets of 0.49% and 0.64% for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Additionally, the Company experienced an annualized return on average shareholders’ equity of 6.25% and 8.68% for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2008 and 2007

Net income was $884,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, as compared to $1.07 million of net income for the same period in 2007. The decrease in earnings for this period in 2008 is primarily related to an increase in the provision for loan losses of $219,000, an increase in operating expenses of $329,000 that was partially offset by an increase in noninterest income of $150,000 and lower taxes in the amount of $101,000. Basic earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 were

Table of Contents

$0.61 and $0.73, respectively, and were based on weighted-average number of shares outstanding of 1,460,626 and 1,459,965, respectively. Diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 were $0.59 and $0.70, respectively, and were based on weighted-average number of shares outstanding of 1,506,352 and 1,520,638, respectively.

The Company experienced an annualized return on average assets of 0.45% and 0.59% for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Additionally, the Company experienced an annualized return on average shareholders’ equity of 5.84% and 7.68% for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is generated from the Company’s lending and investment activities, and is the most significant component of the Company’s earnings. Net interest income is the difference between interest and rate-related fee income on earning assets (primarily loans and investment securities) and the interest paid on the funds (primarily deposits) supporting them. The Company primarily utilizes deposits to fund loans and investments, with a small amount of additional funding from junior subordinated debentures and minimal short-term and long-term borrowings, in future periods it may utilize a higher level of short-term and long-term borrowings, including borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank, federal funds lines with correspondent banks and repurchase agreements, to fund operations, depending on economic conditions, deposit availability and pricing, interest rates and other factors.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2008 and 2007

Net interest income (on a taxable-equivalent basis) was $2.28 million in 2008 and $2.22 million in 2007. The increase in net interest income was primarily driven by a higher volume of loans, even at a lower yield, and in addition by the impact of lower rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Average earning assets increased by $3.41 million, or 1.39%, since September 30, 2007. The yield on earning assets in 2008 decreased to 6.31% from 7.00% in 2007, primarily as a result of the Federal Reserve’s decrease in the federal funds rate of 350 bps since September 2007. The decrease of 86 basis points in the rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities primarily is the result of the lower rates paid on money market accounts and certificates of deposit. The Company’s net interest margin was 3.63% and 3.58%, and the net interest spread was 3.00% and 2.84%, for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. This increase relates primarily to the reduced rates paid on the money market accounts and certificates of deposit.

Table of Contents

Interest expense decreased 20.52% from $2.12 million in 2007 to $1.68 million in 2008 due to the reduced rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities, which decreased to 3.30% in 2008 from 4.16% in 2007.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2008 and 2007

Net interest income (on a taxable-equivalent basis) was $6.46 million in 2008 and $6.35 million in 2007. The increase in net interest income was primarily driven by the reduced rates paid on the interest-bearing liabilities along with an increased loan volume, which was partially offset by lower yields earned on the loan portfolio. Average earning assets increased by $16.06 million, or 6.86%, since September 30, 2007. The yield on earning assets in 2008 decreased to 6.36% from 6.95% in 2007, primarily as a result of the Federal Reserve’s decrease in the federal funds rate of 350 basis points since September 2007. The decrease of 50 basis points in the rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities primarily is the result of lower rates paid on the money market accounts and certificates of deposit, along with less reliance on jumbo certificates of deposit. The Company’s net interest margin was 3.44% and 3.62%, and the net interest spread was 2.77% and 2.86%, for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. This decrease relates primarily to the reduced yields earned on the loan portfolio and federal funds sold.

Interest expense decreased 5.95% from $5.83 million in 2007 to $5.48 million in 2008 due to the reduced rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities, which decreased to 3.59% in 2008 from 4.09% in 2007.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income was $153,000 and $100,000 for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and was $433,000 and $283,000 for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. For the three-month periods the most significant increases relate to NSF fees, sweep management fees, and ATM interchange fees, which increased $10,000, $9,000, and $9,000, respectively. For the nine-month periods the most significant increases relate to NSF fees, sweep management fees, and ATM interchange fees, which increased $30,000, $28,000, and $26,000, respectively. Also included in noninterest income are securities gains of $26,000 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008, along with a gain on sale of foreclosed properties of $15,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.

Noninterest Expense

See Note 8 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for a schedule showing a detailed breakdown of the Company’s noninterest expense.

Noninterest expense amounted to $1.68 million and $1.60 million for the three-month periods in 2008 and 2007, respectively, and was $4.98 million and $4.65 million for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. For the three-month periods the changes in noninterest expense are principally related to an increase in personnel costs and depreciation. Salaries expense in 2008 was $835,000, up $36,000 from the salaries expense incurred in the same period in 2007. For the nine-month periods the changes in noninterest expense are principally related to an increase in personnel costs, rent and depreciation. Salaries expense in 2008 was $2.47 million, up $121,000 from the salaries expense incurred in the same period in 2007. The major reason for the increase in rent expense is due to the new Antietam Office which relocated to a larger facility after the fire destroyed the previous location in February 2007.

Income Taxes

During the three months ended September 30, 2008, the Company incurred $153,000 of income tax expense compared to $194,000 during the same period in 2007. During the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company incurred $381,000 of income tax expense compared to $482,000 during the same period in 2007. The effective tax rates for the three-month periods in 2008 and 2007 were 32.69% and 32.23% and for the nine month periods in 2008 and 2007 were 30.12% and 31.14%. The decline in income tax expense for the three months is due to the lower pre-tax income in 2008 and for the nine months the lower pre-tax income in 2008 along with an income tax benefit of $19,000 the Company recognized on $2.36 million of deferred tax assets as a result of the change in the Maryland income tax rate from 7.0% to 8.25% which became effective January 1, 2008.

Market Risk, Liquidity and Interest Rate Sensitivity

Asset/liability management involves the funding and investment strategies necessary to maintain an appropriate balance between interest sensitive assets and liabilities. It also involves providing adequate liquidity while sustaining stable growth in net interest income. Regular review and analysis of deposit and loan trends, cash flows in various categories of loans, and monitoring of interest spread relationships are vital to this process.

Table of Contents

The conduct of our banking business requires that we maintain adequate liquidity to meet changes in the composition and volume of assets and liabilities due to seasonal, cyclical or other reasons. Liquidity describes the ability of the Company to meet financial obligations that arise during the normal course of business. Liquidity is primarily needed to meet the borrowing and deposit withdrawal requirements of the customers of the Company, as well as for meeting current and future planned expenditures. This liquidity is typically provided by the funds received through customer deposits, investment maturities, loan repayments, borrowings, and income. Management considers the current liquidity position to be adequate to meet the needs of the Company and its customers.

The Company seeks to limit the risks associated with interest rate fluctuations by managing the balance between interest sensitive assets and liabilities. Managing to mitigate interest rate risk is, however, not an exact science. Not only does the interval until repricing of interest rates on assets and liabilities change from day to day as the assets and liabilities change, but for some assets and liabilities, contractual maturity and the actual maturity experienced are not the same. Similarly, NOW and money market accounts, by contract, may be withdrawn in their entirety upon demand and savings deposits may be withdrawn on seven days notice. While these contracts are extremely short, it is the Company’s belief that these accounts turn over at the rate of five percent (5%) per year. The Company therefore treats them as having maturities staggered over all periods. If all of the Company’s NOW, money market, and savings accounts were treated as repricing in one year or less, the cumulative gap at one year or less would be $(48.81) million.

Interest rate sensitivity is an important factor in the management of the composition and maturity configurations of the Company’s earning assets and funding sources. An Asset/Liability Committee manages the interest rate sensitivity position in order to maintain an appropriate balance between the maturity and repricing characteristics of assets and liabilities that is consistent with the Company’s liquidity analysis, growth, and capital adequacy goals. It is the objective of the Asset/Liability Committee to maximize net interest margins during periods of both volatile and stable interest rates, to attain earnings growth, and to maintain sufficient liquidity to satisfy depositors’ requirements and meet credit needs of customers.

The table below, “Interest Rate Sensitivity Gap Analysis,” summarizes, as of September 30, 2008, the anticipated maturities or repricing of the Company’s interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the Company’s interest rate sensitivity gap (interest-earning assets less interest-bearing liabilities), the Company’s cumulative interest rate sensitivity gap, and the Company’s cumulative interest sensitivity gap ratio (cumulative interest rate sensitivity gap divided by total assets). A negative gap for any time period means that more interest-bearing liabilities will reprice or mature during that time period than interest-earning assets. During periods of rising interest rates, a negative gap position would generally decrease earnings, and during periods of declining interest rates, a negative gap position would generally increase earnings. The converse would be true for a positive gap position. Therefore, a positive gap for any time period means that more interest-earning assets will reprice or mature during that time period than interest-bearing liabilities. During periods of rising interest rates, a positive gap position would generally increase earnings, and during periods of declining interest rates, a positive gap position would generally decrease earnings.

It is important to note that the following table represents the static gap position for interest sensitive assets and liabilities at September 30, 2008. The table does not give effect to prepayments or extensions of loans as a result of changes in general market interest rates. Moreover, while the table does indicate the opportunities to reprice assets and liabilities within certain time frames, it does not account for timing differences that occur during periods of repricing. For example, changes to deposit rates tend to lag in a rising rate environment and lead in a falling rate environment, although this will not always be the case. Nor does it account for the effects of competition on pricing of deposits and loans. For example, under current market conditions, market rates paid on deposits may not be able to adjust by the full amount of downward adjustments in the federal funds target rate, while rates on loans will tend to adjust by the full amount, subject to certain limitations.

In addition to the Interest Rate Sensitivity Gap Analysis, the Company also uses an earnings simulation model on a quarterly basis to closely monitor interest sensitivity and to expose its balance sheet and income statement to different scenarios. The model is based on current Company data and adjusted by assumptions as to growth patterns, noninterest income and noninterest expense and interest rate sensitivity, based on historical data, for both assets and liabilities projected for a one-year period. The model is then subjected to a “shock test” assuming a sudden interest rate increase of 200 basis points or a decrease of 200 basis points, but not below zero. The results show that with a 200 basis point rise in interest rates the Company’s net interest income would decline by 2.16%. With a decrease in interest rates of 200 basis points the Company’s net interest income would increase by 2.04%.

Certain shortcomings are inherent in this method of analysis. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or repricing periods, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in market rates. Additionally, certain assets, such as adjustable-rate mortgage loans, have features that restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the loan. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates, prepayment and early withdrawal levels could deviate significantly from those assumed. Finally, the ability of many borrowers to service their debt may decrease in the event of a significant interest rate increase.

Critical Accounting Policy:

Allowance for Loan Losses

The Company’s provision for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 was $220,000 and $50,000, respectively, and for the nine-month periods was $460,000 and $241,000, respectively. The loan growth was $2.51 million since December 31, 2007 and $1.15 million since September 30, 2007. The provision for loan losses is determined based upon Management’s estimate of the amount required to maintain an adequate allowance for loan losses reflective of the risks in the Company’s loan portfolio. At September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the allowance for loan losses was $2.70 million and $2.64 million, respectively. The increase in the allowance from December 31, 2007, reflects the provision of $460,000 less net charge-offs of $400,000, as compared to net charge-offs of $6,000 in the same period of 2007. The increase in charge-offs is a result of one unsecured relationship in the amount of $223,000, commercial and industrial loan for $104,000 and the write-down on foreclosed property in the amount of $76,000 when transferred to other real estate owned.

Table of Contents

The Company prepares a quarterly analysis of the allowance for loan losses, with the objective of quantifying portfolio risk into a dollar amount of inherent losses. The determination of the allowance for loan losses is based on eight qualitative factors and one quantitative factor for each category and type of loan along with any specific allowance for adversely classified loans within each category. Each factor is assigned a percentage weight and that total weight is applied to each loan category. Factors are different for each category. Qualitative factors include: levels and trends in delinquencies and nonaccrual loans; trends in volumes and terms of loans; effects of any changes in lending policies, the experience, ability and depth of management; national and local economic trends and conditions; concentrations of credit; quality of the Company’s loan review system; and regulatory requirements. The total allowance required thus changes as the percentage weight assigned to each factor increased or decreased due to the particular circumstances, as the various types and categories of loans change as a percentage of total loans and as specific allowances are required due to increases in adversely classified loans.

The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. The allowance is based on two basic principles of accounting: (i) SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, which requires that losses be accrued when they are probable of occurring and estimable and (ii) SFAS No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, which requires that losses be accrued based on the differences between the loan balance and either the value of collateral, or the present value of future cash flows, or the loan’s value as observable in the secondary market. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by Management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and borrower, including the length of the delay, the reason for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. The provision for loan losses included in the statements of operations serves to maintain the allowance at a level Management considers adequate.

The Company’s allowance for loan losses has three basic components: the specific allowance, the formula allowance and the pooled allowance. Each of these components is determined based upon estimates that can and do change when the actual events occur. As a result of the uncertainties inherent in the estimation process, Management’s estimate of loan losses and the related allowance could change in the near term.

The specific allowance component is used to individually establish an allowance for loans identified for impairment testing. When impairment is identified, a specific reserve may be established based on the Company’s calculation of the estimated loss embedded in the individual loan. Impairment testing includes consideration of the borrower’s overall financial condition, resources and payment record, support available from financial guarantors and the fair market value of collateral. These factors are combined to estimate the probability and severity of inherent losses. Large groups of smaller balance, homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Company does not separately identify individual consumer and residential mortgage loans for impairment. At September 30, 2008 there were $1.37 million of loans deemed to be impaired, which had specific reserves of $365,000. This included $1.37 million in nonaccrual loans. These loans amount to $1.28 million in commercial real estate for three relationships and $95,000 in commercial and industrial loans for two relationships. All of the impaired loan relationships discussed are in different types of businesses.

The formula allowance component is used for estimating the loss on internally risk rated loans and those loans identified for impairment testing. The loans meeting the Company’s internal criteria for classification, such as special mention, substandard, doubtful and loss are segregated from performing loans within the portfolio. These internally classified loans are then grouped by loan type (commercial, commercial real estate, commercial construction, residential real estate, residential construction or installment). Each loan type is assigned an allowance factor based on Management’s estimate of the associated risk, complexity and size of the individual loans within the particular loan category. Classified loans are assigned a higher allowance factor than non-classified loans due to Management’s concerns regarding collectability or Management’s knowledge of particular elements surrounding the borrower. Allowance factors increase with the worsening of the internal risk rating.

The pooled formula component is used to estimate the losses inherent in the pools of non-classified loans. These loans are then also segregated by loan type and allowance factors are assigned by Management based on delinquencies, loss history, trends in volume and terms of loans, effects of changes in lending policy, the experience and depth of Management, national and local economic trends, concentrations of credit, quality of loan review system and the effect of external factors (i.e. competition and regulatory requirements). The allowance factors assigned differ by loan type.

Allowance factors and overall size of the allowance may change from period to period based on Management’s assessment of the above-described factors and the relative weights given to each factor. In addition, various regulatory agencies periodically review the allowance for loan losses. These agencies may require the Bank to make additions to the allowance for loan losses based on their judgments of collectibility based on information available to them at the time of their examination.

Table of Contents

Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate. There can be no assurance, however, that additional provisions for loan losses will not be required in the future, including as a result of changes in the economic assumptions underlying Management’s estimates and judgments, adverse developments in the economy, on a national basis or in the Company’s market area, or changes in the circumstances of particular borrowers.

As of September 30, 2008, the real estate loan portfolio constituted 86% of the total loan portfolio. While this exceeds the 10% threshold for determining a concentration of credit risk within an industry, we do not consider this to be a concentration with adverse risk characteristics given the diversity of borrowers within the real estate portfolio and other sources of repayment. An industry for this purpose is defined as a group of counterparties that are engaged in similar activities and have similar economic characteristics that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions. Additionally, the loan portfolio does not include concentrations of credit risk in residential loan products that permit the deferral of principal payments that are smaller than normal interest accruals (negative amortization); loans with high loan-to-value ratios; or loans, such as option adjustable-rate mortgages, that may expose the borrower to future increases in repayments that are in excess of increases that would result solely from increases in market interest rates. However, the Company does have interest only home equity lines of credit with outstanding balances of $7.39 million of at September 30, 2008.

There were no other interest-bearing assets at September 30, 2008 or December 31, 2007 classified as past due 90 days or more and still accruing, restructured or problem assets, and no loans which were currently performing in accordance with their terms, but as to which information known to Management caused it to have serious doubts about the ability of the borrower to comply with the loan as currently written.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, including unused portions of lines of credit, and standby letters of credit. The Company has also entered into long-term lease obligations for some of its premises and equipment, the terms of which generally include options to renew. The above instruments and obligations involve, to varying degrees, elements of off-balance sheet risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated statements of financial condition. With the exception of these instruments and the Company’s obligations relating to its trust preferred securities, the Company does not have any off balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit as of September 30, 2008 were as follows:

	September 30,
	2008
(dollars in thousands)	Contractual Amount
Financial instruments whose notional or contract amounts represent credit risk:
Commitments to extend credit	$	30,181
Standby letters of credit	3,449
Total	$	33,630

See Note 9 to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 for additional information regarding the Company’s long-term lease obligations.

Capital Resources

The ability of the Company to grow is dependent on the availability of capital with which to meet regulatory capital requirements, discussed below. To the extent the Company is successful it may need to acquire additional capital through the sale of additional common stock, other qualifying equity instruments or subordinated debt. There can be no assurance that additional capital will be available to the Company on a timely basis or on attractive terms. On December 15, 2006, the Company completed the issuance of $6.00 million of trust preferred securities, as discussed above, that can be recognized as capital for regulatory purposes. The Company has an unsecured revolving line of credit borrowing arrangement with an unaffiliated financial institution in the amount of $3.00 million with no outstanding balance as of September 30, 2008 or December 31, 2007. This facility matures on May 1, 2009, has a floating interest rate equal to the Wall Street Journal prime rate and requires monthly interest payments only. The purpose of this facility is to provide capital to the Bank, as needed. The Bank expects to have this credit facility renewed, but there can be no assurance.

The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. The Company will be subject to such requirements when its assets exceed $500 million, it has publicly issued debt or it engages in certain highly leveraged activities. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory - and possibly additional discretionary - actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes that the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject as of September 30, 2008 and that the Company would meet such requirements if applicable. See Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements for a table depicting compliance with regulatory capital requirements.

As of September 30, 2008, the most recent notification from the regulatory agency categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table in Note 10. There are no conditions or events since that notification which management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

Inflation

The effect of changing prices on financial institutions is typically different than on non-banking companies since virtually all of a Company’s assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. In particular, interest rates are significantly affected by inflation, but neither the timing nor magnitude of the changes are directly related to price level indices; therefore, the Company can best counter inflation over the long term by managing net interest income and controlling net increases in noninterest income and expenses.

Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective. There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Act of 1934) during the quarter ended September 30, 2008 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
