NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2013 AND 2012

1. GENERAL

In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2013, the results of its operations and comprehensive loss and cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. These statements are condensed and therefore do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. The statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or for any other period.

2. FINANCIAL STATEMENT PREPARATION

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates are used when accounting for uncollectible loans, depreciation and amortization, intangible assets, deferred income taxes, and contingencies, among others. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3. GOING CONCERN CONSIDERATION

Due to our elevated level of nonperforming assets and recurring operating losses, there is substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. Management is taking steps to improve our financial condition. The financial statements and the accompanying footnotes have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future, and does not include any adjustment to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of any extraordinary regulatory action, which would affect our ability to continue as a going concern.

4. BRANCH SALE

On August 16, 2013, the Bank sold its Aberdeen, Maryland branch office to Howard Bank (“Howard”), Ellicott City, Maryland. As part of the transaction, Howard acquired a pool of loans with an unpaid principal balance of approximately $37.1 million at book value. Under the agreement, Howard paid a 5.0% premium on the balance of non-interest bearing deposits and 4.0% on all other transaction accounts assumed. Certificates of deposit were assumed at the current balance on the closing date, with no premium or discount applied. As part of the transaction, the deposits assumed by Howard totaled approximately $35.2 million. The premium received on the assumption of deposits totaled approximately $240,000 and is included in other noninterest income on the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. Howard also purchased the branch premises and selected equipment at their book value, which totaled approximately $977,000.

The following table shows the composition of the loans (in thousands) sold as part of the agreement.

Real estate loans:
Construction and land development	$	870
1-4 family residential and home equity		6,755

5. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

FASB ASU 2013-02, “Comprehensive Income – Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income”

The objective of this ASU, issued in February 2013, is to improve the transparency of reporting reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income (“OCI”) by requiring entities to present in one place information about significant amounts reclassifies and, in some cases, to provide cross references to related footnote disclosures. The amendments do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or OCI, nor do they require new information to be disclosed. The amendments were applied prospectively and were effective for public entities in both interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012.

6. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are computed after adjusting the denominator of the basic earnings per share computation for the effects of all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. The dilutive effects of options, warrants, and their equivalents are computed using the “treasury stock” method. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, all 523,076 options and warrants were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation because their effect was antidilutive. The calculation of net loss per common share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 is as follows:

	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2013			2012			2013			2012

Basic and diluted:
Net loss	$	(4,573,000	)	$	(15,855,000	)	$	(6,334,000	)	$	(17,641,000	)
Preferred stock dividends and discount accretion		(222,000	)		(359,000	)		(664,000	)		(7,26,000	)
Net loss available to common stockholders	$	(4,795,000	)	$	(16,214,000	)	$	(6,998,000	)	$	(18,367,000	)

Average common shares outstanding		7,425,869			7,422,164			7,425,864			7,422,164

Basic and diluted loss per common share	$	(0.65	)	$	(2.18	)	$	(0.94	)	$	(2.47	)

7. ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

In November 2009, the Company approved the granting of 120,250 restricted stock awards with a fair market value of $2.00 per share. The awards vest over a period of five years, with 2,408 shares vesting in November 2013 and 2,412 shares vesting in November 2014. The vesting of the remaining 103,686 shares is restricted due to the Company’s participation in the Department of Treasury’s Troubled Asset Relief Program Capital Purchase Program. A summary of the Company’s activity and related information for restricted stock for the periods indicated is as follows:

	Nine Months Ended			Year Ended
	September 30, 2013			December 31, 2012
		Weighted-				Weighted-

8. ASSETS MEASURED AT FAIR VALUE

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASC Topic 820. ASC Topic 820 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. While the Statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, it does not require any new fair value measurements. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In addition, the Statement establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. Lastly, ASC Topic 820 requires additional disclosures for each interim and annual period separately for each major category of assets and liabilities. For Level 2 assets, the Company uses information from a third party pricing service, which is estimated using market prices of comparable instruments or other methods, such as the present value of future cash flows. The following table shows the value (in thousands) at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 of each major category of assets measured on a recurring basis at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets, which consists of investment securities available-for-sale. The changes in fair value were reflected as a component of other comprehensive income and did not affect net income.

We may be required from time to time to measure certain other financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These adjustments to fair value usually result from application of lower of cost or market accounting or write-downs of individual assets. For assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the following table provides (in thousands) the level of valuation assumptions used to determine each adjustment and the carrying value of the assets. For both other real estate owned and impaired loans, Level 3 assets are valued at the lesser of the unpaid principal balance of the loan, or the appraised value of the underlying collateral, net of estimated selling costs, as determined by a third party appraiser. There were no transfers between valuation levels for any assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 or the year ended December 31, 2012.

9. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

FASB ASC 825-10-50 requires that the Company disclose estimated fair values for both its on and off-balance-sheet financial instruments. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments. Changes in estimates and assumptions could have a significant impact on these fair values.

Investment Securities - The fair values of investment securities are based on quoted market prices, where available. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices of comparable instruments.

Loans Receivable - The fair value of the loan portfolio is estimated by evaluating homogeneous categories of loans with similar financial and credit risk characteristics. Loans are segregated by types, such as residential mortgage, commercial real estate and consumer. Each loan category is further segmented into fixed and adjustable-rate interest terms.

The fair values of each loan category are estimated by discounting contractual cash flows adjusted for estimated prepayments. Assumptions regarding prepayment estimates and discount rates are judgmentally determined by using available market information.

Restricted Investment Securities - The fair value of the Company’s investment in stock of the FHLB and FRB approximates its carrying value.

Deposits - The fair values of deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation, adjusted for estimated decay rates, that applies interest rates currently offered for funding sources with similar maturities. Assumptions regarding discount rates and decay estimates are judgmentally determined by using available market information.

Junior Subordinated Debentures – The fair value was estimated by computing the discounted value of contractual cash flows payable at current interest rates for obligations with similar remaining terms.

Advances from the FHLB - The fair value of FHLB advances was estimated by computing the discounted value of contractual cash flows payable at current interest rates for obligations with similar remaining terms.

Other Borrowed Funds – The fair value was estimated by computing the discounted value of contractual cash flows at current interest rates for obligations with similar remaining terms.

Commitments to Extend Credit - The Company charges fees for commitments to extend credit. Interest rates on loans for which these commitments are extended are normally committed for periods of less than one month. Fees charged on standby letters of credit and other financial guarantees are deemed to be immaterial and these guarantees are expected to be settled at face amount or expire unused. It is impractical to assign any fair value to these commitments.

Management has the intent to hold the securities classified as held-to-maturity in the table above until they mature, at which time the Company will receive full value for the securities. Furthermore, as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, management does not have the intent to sell any of the securities classified as available-for-sale in the table above and

believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will not have to sell any such securities before a recovery of cost. Management does not believe that any of the securities are impaired due to reasons of credit quality. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, management believes the impairments detailed in the table above are temporary and no impairment loss has been realized in the Company’s consolidated income statement.

11. CREDIT QUALITY OF LOANS RECEIVABLE AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The Company has segregated its loan portfolio into six segments, including construction and land development, 1-4 family residential, multi-family residential, commercial real estate, commercial business, and consumer. The Company’s primary market area is in Northeastern Maryland in Cecil and Harford Counties, so exposure to credit risk is significantly affected by changes in these counties.

Construction lending primarily involves lending for construction of single family residences, although the Bank does lend funds for the construction of commercial properties and multi-family real estate. All loans for the construction of speculative sale homes have a loan-to-value ratio of not more than 80%. The Bank has financed the construction of non-residential properties on a case by case basis. Loan proceeds are disbursed during the construction phase according to a draw schedule based on the stage of completion. Construction projects are inspected by contracted inspectors or bank personnel. Construction loans are underwritten on the basis of the estimated value of the property as completed. The Bank originates loans secured by raw land, which are generally granted to developers have terms of up to three years. The substantial majority of land loans have a loan-to-value ratio not exceeding 75%. Land loans have a higher level of risk than loans for the purchase of existing homes since collateral values can only be estimated at the time the loan is approved. The Bank has sought to minimize this risk by offering such financing primarily to builders and developers to whom the Bank has loaned funds in the past and to persons who have previous experience in such projects.

The Bank offers fixed and adjustable rate conventional mortgage loans on one-to-four family residential dwellings. Most loans are originated in amounts up to $350,000 on properties located in the Bank’s primary market area. These loans are generally for terms of 15, 20 and 30 years amortized on a monthly basis with interest and principal due each month. The Bank retains all adjustable rate mortgage loans it originates and sells the majority of fixed rate loans, primarily to FHLMC, with servicing retained by the Bank. The retention of adjustable rate loans helps reduce the Bank’s exposure to rising interest rates. However, it is possible that during periods of rising interest rates, the risk of default on adjustable rate mortgage loans may increase due to the upward adjustment of the interest cost to the borrower.

The Bank originates multi-family residential loans in its market area. These loans are generally larger and involve greater risks than one-to-four family residential loans. Because payments on these loans are often dependent on the successful operation or management of the property, repayment of such loans may be subject to a greater extent to adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy. The Bank seeks to minimize these risks in a variety of ways, including limiting the size and loan-to-value ratios. The loans typically have terms of 20 to 40 years, with rate adjustments every one, three, or five years. They generally have imbedded interest rate floors, with no interest rate ceilings, and have no interest rate change limitations.

The Bank primarily originates commercial real estate loans in its market area. These loans are generally larger and involve greater risks that one-to-four family residential loans. Because payments on these loans are often dependent on the successful operation or management of the property, repayment of such loans may be subject to a greater extent to adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy. The Bank seeks to minimize these risks in a variety of ways, including limiting the size and loan-to-value ratios. The loans typically have terms of 20 to 40 years, with rate adjustments every one, three, or five years. They generally have imbedded interest rate floors, with no interest rate ceilings, and have no interest rate change limitations. The Bank’s commercial real estate loans are typically secured by retail or wholesale establishments, motels/hotels, service industries, and industrial or warehouse facilities. During 2011, the Bank began making loans under the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) Section 7(a) program, under which the SBA guarantees up to 75% of loans of up to $5 million for the purchase or expansion of small businesses. The Bank may sell the guaranteed portion of SBA loans into the secondary market and retain the unguaranteed portion in its portfolio.

The Bank offers secured and unsecured commercial business loans and lines of credit to businesses located in its primary market area. Most business loans have a one-year term, while lines of credit can remain open for longer periods. All owners, partners, and officers must sign the loan agreement. The security for a business loan depends on the amount borrowed, the business involved, and the strength of the borrower’s firm. Commercial business lending entails significant risk, as the payments on such loans may depend upon the successful operation or management of the business involved. Although the Bank

attempts to limit its risk of loss on such loans by limiting the amount and the term, and by requiring personal guarantees of the principals of the business, the risk of loss on these loans is substantially greater than the risk of loss from residential real estate lending.

The Bank’s consumer loans consist of automobile loans, deposit account loans, home improvement loans, and other consumer loans. The loans are generally offered for terms of up to five years at fixed interest rates. Consumer loans are generally originated at higher interest rates than residential mortgage loans because of their higher risk. Repossessed collateral for a defaulted loan may not provide an adequate source of repayment as a result of damage, loss, or depreciation. In addition, collections are dependent on the borrower’s continuing financial stability, and thus are more likely to be adversely affected by job loss, divorce, illness, or personal bankruptcy.

On an ongoing basis, the Bank assigns a grade to each of its loans. The internal grades are pass, special mention, substandard, doubtful, and loss. Loans graded pass are loans where the borrower exhibits a strong balance sheet position and good earnings and cash flow history. Loans graded special mention show potential weaknesses that deserve the Bank’s close attention. If these potential weaknesses are not corrected, they may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan in the Bank’s credit position at some future date. Substandard loans are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower or of the collateral pledged, if any. Substandard loans have a well defined weakness that could jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the weaknesses are not corrected. Loans graded doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in substandard loans with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly improbable. Assets graded loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as an asset is not warranted. The classification does not mean the loan has absolutely no recovery value, but that it is not practical to defer charging off the loan even though partial recovery may be effected in the future.

The following table shows the composition of the loan portfolio held for investment (in thousands) at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
