First Community Corporation
Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials for the
Shareholder Meeting to Be Held at 11:00 a.m., May 19, 2010.
As part of our efforts to cut unnecessary expenses and conserve the environment, First Community Corporation has elected to provide Internet access to the proxy statement and annual report rather than mailing paper reports. This reduces postage and printing expenses and paper waste.
You should have already received a notice which was mailed on April 8, 2010. This is a second notification. The proxy statement and annual report are available at: http://www.cfpproxy.com/5474
The annual shareholder meeting will be held at 11:00 a.m. on May 19, 2010, at the Saluda Shoals Park, Environmental Center, 5605 Bush River Road, Columbia, South Carolina 29212. The matters to be covered are noted below:
1. Proposal to elect four Class I directors;
2. Proposal to approve the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement (this is a non-binding, advisory vote)
3. Proposal to ratify the appointment of Elliott Davis, LLC independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2010; and
4. Such other matters as may properly come before the Annual Meeting, or any adjournments thereof.
The Board of Directors is not aware of any other such business. Shareholders of record at the close of business on March 29, 2010 are entitled to vote at the meeting.
Your Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR each of the above proposals.
This communication presents only an overview of the more complete proxy materials that are available to you on the Internet. We encourage you to access and review all of the important information contained in the proxy materials before voting.
If you want to receive a paper copy of these documents, you must request one. There is no charge to you for requesting a copy.

Instructions for using these voting methods are included on the enclosed proxy card. We encourage you to vote online, by telephone or by mail. You may also vote in person at the meeting.
We ask that you cast your vote promptly.
