EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-8 is being filed, pursuant to the registrant’s undertaking in Item 9(a)(3) of Part II of the original Registration Statement, for the purpose of removing from registration the 5,236 shares of common stock of the registrant, par value $.01 per share, that remained unsold at the termination of the offering covered thereby.  The Talbot Bancshares, Inc. Employee Stock Option Plan terminated pursuant to its terms, and all options granted thereunder were exercised, were forfeited or lapsed.  Accordingly, the offering of shares pursuant to the foregoing plan has terminated, and the registrant, therefore, removes such shares from registration.
