NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION—The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of WesBanco, Inc. (“WesBanco”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.

WesBanco’s interim financial statements have been prepared following the significant accounting policies disclosed in Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements of its 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim financial information reflects all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly WesBanco’s financial position and results of operations for each of the interim periods presented. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for a full year. From January 1, 2008 until April 25, 2008, WesBanco operated two commercial banking subsidiaries as WesBanco Bank, Inc. and Oak Hill Banks (collectively “the Banks”) within the consolidated company. As of April 25, 2008, Oak Hill Banks was merged into WesBanco Bank, Inc., resulting in the existence of one banking subsidiary.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS—In September, 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” which defines, and provides guidance as to the measurement of, fair value. This statement creates a hierarchy of measurement and indicates that, when possible, 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. SFAS No. 157 applies when assets or liabilities in the financial statements are to be measured at fair value, but does not require additional use of fair value beyond the requirements in other accounting principles. The statement was effective for WesBanco as of January 1, 2008, excluding certain nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, for which the statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 and its adoption did not have a significant impact on WesBanco’s financial position or results of operations. See Note 8, “Fair Value Measurements.”

In October 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) FAS 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active.” The FSP clarifies the application of SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”, in a market that is not active and provides an example to illustrate key considerations in determining the fair value of a financial asset when the market for that financial asset is not active. The FSP is effective upon issuance, including prior periods for which financial statements have not been issued. The adoption of FSP FAS 157-3 did not have a material impact on WesBanco’s financial position or results of operations.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,” which permits companies to report certain financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. SFAS 159 was effective for WesBanco as of January 1, 2008 at which time the Company could elect to apply the standard prospectively and measure certain financial instruments at fair value. WesBanco has evaluated the guidance contained in SFAS 159, and has elected not to apply the fair value option for any of its current assets or liabilities, therefore, the adoption of the statement had no impact on its financial position and results of operations. WesBanco retains the right to elect the fair value option for certain future assets and liabilities acquired.

In November 2007, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 109, which addresses the valuation of written loan commitments accounted for at fair value through earnings. The guidance in SAB 109 expresses the staff’s view that the measurement of fair value for a written loan commitment accounted for at fair value through earnings should incorporate the expected net future cash flows related to the associated servicing of the loan. Previously under SAB 105, “Application of Accounting Principles to Loan Commitments”, this component of value was not incorporated into the fair value of the loan commitment. WesBanco has adopted the provisions of SAB 109 for written loan commitments entered into or modified beginning January 1, 2008 related to residential real estate loans held for sale that are accounted for as derivatives under SFAS 133 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. WesBanco does not account for any other written loan commitments at fair value through earnings. This statement did not have a material impact on WesBanco’s financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations”. SFAS 141(R) amends SFAS 141 and provides revised guidance for recognizing and measuring identifiable assets and goodwill acquired, liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquired business. It also provides disclosure requirements to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. It is effective for business combinations consummated by WesBanco after December 31, 2008 and is to be applied prospectively. While its adoption will not have any impact on current assets and liabilities, the statement’s implementation for future acquisitions may materially adjust the accounting for the acquired assets and liabilities of such a business combination, if any were to be consummated.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of ARB No. 51”. SFAS 160 requires that ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent, and the amount of consolidated net income, be clearly identified, labeled, and presented in the consolidated financial statements. It also requires once a subsidiary is deconsolidated, any retained noncontrolling equity investment in the former subsidiary be initially measured at fair value. Sufficient disclosures are required to clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the noncontrolling owners. It is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and requires retroactive adoption of the presentation and disclosure requirements for existing minority interests. All other requirements shall be applied prospectively. WesBanco is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 160 on its consolidated financial statements.

7

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133”. This statement changes the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS 133 and its related interpretations, and how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. It is effective for years beginning after November 15, 2008. WesBanco does not believe that this statement will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”. This statement 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. It is effective sixty days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, “The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”. WesBanco does not believe that this statement will have a material impact on the preparation of its financial statements.

NOTE 3. SECURITIES

Effective March 31, 2007, all existing held-to-maturity securities were transferred to available-for-sale. The securities were transferred to increase the level of securities available to pledge as collateral to support municipal deposits and other deposits and borrowings that may require pledged collateral. Some securities transferred had a cost basis in excess of fair value. Management has the intent and ability to hold the securities until recovery of their cost. WesBanco does not intend to use the held-to-maturity security classification for purchased securities for the foreseeable future.

The following table presents the fair value and amortized cost of available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities:

(Unaudited, in thousands)	September 30, 2008		December 31, 2007
Securities available-for-sale (at fair value):
Other government agencies and corporations	$	42,649	$	83,497

Total securities	$	867,414	$	937,084

At September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, there were no holdings of any one issuer, other than the U.S. government and its agencies, in an amount greater than 10% of WesBanco’s shareholders’ equity.

Securities with aggregate par values of $580.8 million and $390.8 million and aggregate carrying values of $583.2 million and $390.2 million at September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively, were pledged as security for public and trust funds, and securities sold under agreements to repurchase. Proceeds from the sale of available-for-sale securities were $0.5 million and $29.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively, compared to $25 million and $26.2 million for the same periods in 2007.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2008 realized gains on available-for-sale securities were $1.2 million with no realized losses. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, realized gains on available-for-sale securities were $0.7 million with no realized losses.

The following table provides information on unrealized losses on investment securities that have been in an unrealized loss position for less than twelve months and twelve months or more as of September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007:

Unrealized losses in the table represent temporary fluctuations resulting from changes in market rates in relation to fixed yields in the available-for-sale portfolio, and are accounted for as an adjustment to other comprehensive income in shareholders’ equity. WesBanco may impact the magnitude of the fair value adjustment by managing both the volume and average maturities of securities. Since loss position securities are intended to be held to recovery or their respective maturity dates, no fair value loss will be realized.

WesBanco does not believe any of the securities presented above are impaired due to the fact that none have had credit downgrades to below investment grade (certain local issue municipal securities do not carry ratings). All of the securities presented have exhibited positive cash flow characteristics and all are paying principal and interest according to their contractual terms. The unrealized losses are primarily attributable to changes in broad interest rate indices, which change in accordance with market conditions. WesBanco has the ability and intent to hold the noted loss position securities for a period of time sufficient for a recovery of cost. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2008 management believes the unrealized losses detailed above are temporary and no impairment loss relating to these securities has been recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.

At September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, WesBanco had no material commitments to lend additional funds to debtors whose loans were classified as impaired.

NOTE 5. FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK BORROWINGS

WesBanco is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) System. WesBanco’s FHLB borrowings are secured by a blanket lien by the FHLB on certain residential mortgage and other loan types or securities with a market value in excess of the outstanding balances of the borrowings. At September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 WesBanco had FHLB borrowings of $613.1 million and $405.8 million, respectively, with a weighted-average interest rate of 3.90% and 4.60%, respectively. The terms of the security agreement with the FHLB include a specific assignment of collateral that requires the maintenance of qualifying mortgage and other types of loans as pledged collateral with unpaid principal amounts in excess of the FHLB advances, when discounted at certain pre-established percentages of the loans’ unpaid principal balances. FHLB stock totaling $34.5 million at September 30, 2008 and $25.3 million at December 31, 2007 is also pledged as collateral on these advances. The remaining maximum borrowing capacity by WesBanco with the FHLB at September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 was estimated to be approximately $658.5 million and $1,203.1 million, respectively.

Certain FHLB advances contain call features, which allow the FHLB to call the outstanding balance or convert a fixed rate borrowing to a variable rate advance if the strike rate goes beyond a certain predetermined rate. The probability that these advances will be called depends primarily on the level of related interest rates during the call period. Of the $613.1 million outstanding at September 30, 2008, $270.7 million in FHLB convertible advances are subject to call or conversion to a variable rate advance by the FHLB.

There is no minimum contribution due for 2008. WesBanco intends to make a contribution, however no decision has been made as of September 30, 2008 as to the amount.

NOTE 8. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

On January 1, 2008, WesBanco adopted the provisions of SFAS 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (SFAS 157) which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Under SFAS 157, fair value measurements are not adjusted for transaction costs. SFAS 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under SFAS 157 are described below:

BASIS OF FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, or model-based valuation techniques where all significant assumptions are observable, either directly or indirectly, in the market;

Level 3 – Valuation is generated from model-based techniques where all significant assumptions are not observable, either directly or indirectly, in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect our own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques may include use of matrix pricing, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

11

A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. The following is a discussion of these assets and liabilities and valuation techniques applied to each for fair value measurement:

Securities: The fair value of securities available for sale which are measured on a recurring basis are determined primarily by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges or matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other similar securities. These securities are classified within level 1 or 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Positions that are not traded in active markets for which valuations are generated using assumptions not observable in the market or management’s best estimate are classified within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. These include certain specific municipal debt issues and a limited number of illiquid equity securities.

Mortgage servicing rights: The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated net servicing income. The valuation model incorporates assumptions based on management’s best judgment that are significant inputs to the discounting calculations. As a result, these rights are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and are classified within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Impaired loans: The fair value of impaired loans is measured for impairment using the fair value of the collateral for collateral-dependent loans on a nonrecurring basis. Collateral may be in the form of real estate or business assets including equipment, inventory and accounts receivable. The use of discounted cash flow models and management’s best judgment are significant inputs in arriving at the fair value measure of the underlying collateral and are therefore classified within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair values on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2008 by level within the fair value hierarchy:

			Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using:
(Unaudited - in thousands)	Total		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
Securities - available for sale	$	865,965	$	45,071	$	818,973	$	1,921

The following table presents additional information about assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and for which WesBanco has utilized Level 3 inputs to determine fair value:

(Unaudited - in thousands)	Securities Available for Sale
Beginning balance - January 1, 2008	$	5,994
Total gains (losses) - (realized/unrealized):
Included in earnings		-
Included in other comprehensive income		(64	)
Purchases, issuances, and settlements		(90	)
Transfers in and/or out of Level 3 (1)		(3,919	)
Ending balance - September 30, 2008	$	1,921

(1)  All transfers occurred for the quarter ending September 30, 2008.

12

We may be required from time to time to measure certain assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. 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 in 2008, the following table provides the level of valuation assumptions used to determine each adjustment in the carrying value of the related individual assets or portfolios at quarter end September 30, 2008:

			Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using:
(Unaudited - in thousands)	Total		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
Impaired loans (1)	$	10,127	$	-	$	-	$	10,127
Mortgage servicing rights (2)		292		-		-		292

(1) Represents the carrying value of loans for which adjustments are based on the appraised value of the collateral.

(2) Represents the carrying value of mortgage servicing rights whose value has been impaired and therefore written down to their fair value as determined from independent valuations.

NOTE 10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

COMMITMENTS—In the normal course of business, WesBanco offers off-balance sheet credit arrangements to enable its customers to meet their financing objectives. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the financial statements. WesBanco’s exposure to credit losses in the event of non-performance by the other parties to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is limited to the contractual amount of those instruments. WesBanco uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as for all other similar lending. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The liability for credit losses associated with loan commitments was $0.3 million and $0.2 million as of each of the periods ended September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively.

Letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by banks to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including normal business activities, bond financing and similar transactions. Standby letters of credit are considered guarantees. The liability associated with standby letters of credit is recorded at its estimated fair value of $0.1 million and $0.1 million as of September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively, and is included in other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The following table presents total commitments and standby letters of credit outstanding:

(Unaudited, in thousands)	September 30, 2008		December 31, 2007
Commitments to extend credit	$	727,813	$	687,352
Standby letters of credit		36,250		51,363
Commercial letters of credit		2,713		3,753

CONTINGENT LIABILITIES—WesBanco and its subsidiaries are parties to various legal and administrative proceedings and claims. While any claims contain an element of uncertainty, management believes that the outcome of such proceedings or claims pending or known to be threatened will not have a material adverse effect on WesBanco’s consolidated financial position.

NOTE 11. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

WesBanco sponsors a Key Executive Incentive Bonus and Option Plan (the “Plan”) that includes three components, an Annual Bonus, a Long-Term Incentive Bonus and a Stock Option component. The three components allow for payments of cash, a mixture of cash and stock, or the granting of non-qualified stock options, depending upon the component of the plan in which the award is earned. Under the terms of the Plan, 0.2 million shares remain available for issuance. Stock options are granted by, and at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors and may be either service or performance based. The maximum term of all options granted under the Stock Option component of the Plan is ten years from the original grant date.

During the second quarter of 2008 WesBanco issued 77,500 options. Such issuance vests on December 31, 2008 and expires seven years from the date of the issuance. Stock compensation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 totaled $0.2 million.

NOTE 12. BUSINESS SEGMENTS

WesBanco operates two reportable segments: community banking and trust and investment services. WesBanco’s community banking segment offers services traditionally offered by full-service commercial banks, including commercial demand, individual demand and time deposit accounts, as well as commercial, mortgage and individual installment loans. The trust and investment services segment offers trust services as well as various alternative investment products including mutual funds. The market value of assets of the trust and investment services segment was approximately $2.7 billion and $3.1 billion at September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. These assets are held by WesBanco Bank, in fiduciary or agency capacities for their customers and therefore are not included as assets on WesBanco’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Condensed financial information by business segment is presented below:

OVERVIEW

WesBanco is a multi-state bank holding company operating through 109 locations and 146 ATM machines in West Virginia, Ohio and Western Pennsylvania, offering retail banking, corporate banking, personal and corporate trust services, brokerage services, mortgage banking and insurance. WesBanco’s businesses are significantly impacted by economic factors such as market interest rates, federal monetary policies, local and regional economic conditions and the competitive environment effect upon WesBanco’s business volumes. WesBanco’s deposit levels are affected by numerous factors including personal savings rates, personal income, and competitive rates on alternative investments, as well as competition from other financial institutions within the markets we serve and liquidity needs of WesBanco. Loan levels are also subject to various factors including construction demand, business financing needs, consumer spending and interest rates and loan terms offered by competing lenders.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

EARNINGS SUMMARY

WesBanco’s net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2008 was $11.5 million while diluted earnings per share were $0.43, as compared to $9.8 million or $0.47 per share for the third quarter of 2007. Earnings per share for 2008 included the full effect of the issuance of additional shares of stock for the purchase of Oak Hill Financial, Inc. (“Oak Hill”). Net income increased 17.9% during the third quarter of 2008, as compared to the third quarter of 2007, due primarily to a 42.1% improvement in net interest income from a larger balance sheet as a result of the Oak Hill acquisition coupled with a 9.5% increase in the net interest margin to 3.70%, which can be attributed to a lower cost of funds for the 2008 quarter. Non-interest income grew by 20.6% primarily from increases in deposit service charges, ATM and debit card fees as well as insurance brokerage revenue. Additionally, WesBanco experienced a 40.8% reduction in the provision for income taxes as compared to the third quarter of 2007 due to a lower effective tax rate. These improvements were offset somewhat by a $5.0 million increase in the provision for credit losses, higher non-interest expenses related to a larger infrastructure from the addition of Oak Hill and $0.5 million of merger related expenses in the 2008 quarter. The increase in the provision for credit losses was primarily the result of increasing loan charge-offs and non-performing loans due to general economic conditions primarily experienced in our metropolitan markets.

For the nine month period, net income was $32.3 million or $1.22 per share in 2008 as compared to $34.0 million or $1.62 per share for the same period in 2007. The net interest margin was 3.69% in the first nine months of 2008 as compared to 3.46% for the same period in 2007. The margin increase and the increase in the balance sheet provided a 36.7% increase in net interest income. These increases, and the corresponding improvement in non-interest income, were offset by a higher provision for credit losses, which increased $12.9 million, and increases in non-interest expenses.

Net interest income, which is WesBanco’s largest source of revenue, is the difference between interest income on earning assets, primarily loans and securities, and interest expense on liabilities (deposits and short and long-term borrowings). Net interest income is affected by the general level of, and changes in interest rates, the steepness of the yield curve, changes in the amount and composition of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities, as well as the frequency of repricing of those assets and liabilities.

Interest income increased by 19.5% in the third quarter, and 24.1% for the nine month period in 2008 as compared to the same periods in 2007. The increases in interest income were due to increases in the volume of assets from Oak Hill, net of planned runoff in WesBanco Bank’s residential mortgage loan portfolio, as over the last two years, loans originated have been sold into the secondary market rather than held in the loan portfolio. In addition, the net interest margin improved by 32 basis points in the third quarter and 23 basis points in the nine month period of 2008, as WesBanco continued to reduce funding costs. This strategy resulted in a decline of deposit and money market deposit account types from the 2007 year-end, along with the sale of five branches, comprising most of the $386.5 million or 9.9% decrease in total deposits. The average rate earned on total interest-earning assets in the year-to-date period declined 14 basis points as compared with the prior year, comprised of a 27 basis point decrease on loans, partially offset by a 36 basis point increase for total investment securities.

Average loan balances increased $829.2 million or 29.2% for the first nine months of 2008 compared to the prior year period due to the Oak Hill acquisition, net of the effect of planned reductions in residential real estate loans. To a lesser degree, decreases in commercial and industrial, and commercial real estate loans were attributable to reduced demand and prepayments due to refinancing or underlying property sales prior to maturity of certain loans, as well as planned exits of under-performing and less profitable types of loans throughout 2007 and 2008.

Interest expense decreased by 2.4% in the third quarter and increased by 11.1% for the nine month period as compared to the same periods in 2007, due to a decline in the average rate paid for the quarter to 2.80%, which was partially offset by a 29.2% higher total in average interest bearing liabilities. The year to date increase was due to a 29.8% higher total in average interest bearing liabilities, partially offset by significant reductions in rates paid to 3.07% on nearly all interest bearing liability types. The increase in average interest bearing liabilities for both the three and nine month periods were due primarily to the acquisition of Oak Hill. Management aggressively reduced certain interest rates on maturing CDs and MMDAs in order to realize a lower cost of funds during a period of reduced loan demand, while focusing its marketing efforts on non-interest bearing demand deposits. In addition, beginning in the first quarter of 2008, management decided to utilize term and certain structured FHLB borrowings to a greater degree to reduce liability sensitivity, and in the case of structured borrowings, permitting generally lower initial interest rates.

⁽¹⁾ Total loans are gross of the allowance for loan losses, net of unearned income and include loans held for sale. Non-accrual loans were included in the average volume for the entire period. Loan fees included in interest income on loans totaled $1.1 million and $3.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively and $0.9 million and $2.7 million for the same periods in 2007.

⁽²⁾ Average yields on available-for-sale securities are calculated based on amortized cost.

⁽³⁾ The yield on earning assets and the net interest margin are presented on a fully taxable-equivalent (FTE) and annualized basis. The FTE basis adjusts for the tax benefit of income on certain tax-exempt loans and investments using the federal statutory tax rate of 35% for each period presented. WesBanco believes this measure to be the preferred industry measurement of net interest income and provides relevant comparison between taxable and non-taxable amounts.

⁽⁴⁾ Certain rates in the year to date period of 2008 were affected by reclassifications in the first quarter in interest income and interest expense which did not affect the total net interest margin.

⁽²⁾ The yield on earning assets and the net interest margin are presented on a fully taxable-equivalent (FTE) and annualized basis.

WesBanco believes this measure to be the preferred industry measurement of net interest income and provides relevant comparison between taxable and non-taxable amounts.

PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES

The provision for credit losses is determined by management as the amount required after net charge-offs have been deducted, to bring the allowance to a level considered appropriate to absorb probable future net charge-offs inherent in the loan portfolio as of period end. The provision for credit losses was $6.5 million and $17.6 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2008, respectively, as compared to $1.4 million and $4.7 million for the same periods in 2007. Higher provision expense in 2008 reflects adverse economic conditions which have led to an increase in charge-offs and non-performing loans, primarily in our metropolitan markets in Ohio. Certain borrower specific issues also contributed to the provision. For the 2008 third quarter, net charge-offs were 0.55% of average loans as compared to 0.25% in the 2007 third quarter. Net charge-offs were $4.9 million in the third quarter of 2008, and $12.6 million year to date. Total year-to-date net charge-offs are comprised of 53.4% commercial, 14.4% residential and home equity and 32.2% consumer. Non-performing loans as a percent of total loans were 0.96% at September 30, 2008 and 0.39% at September 30, 2007. Loans past due 90 days or more and accruing were 0.34% and 0.51% of total loans for the third quarter of 2008 and 2007, respectively, a 17 basis point decline. The rapid decline in the housing market during the first nine months of the year has negatively impacted residential construction and development loans as values have declined and absorption rates have slowed significantly. The overall impact of a slowing economy has contributed to higher commercial real estate vacancy rates, increases in non-performing multifamily loans and a general decline in business activity. The distressed housing market and high energy prices have also had an adverse impact on the consumer loan portfolio. For additional information relating to the provision for loan losses, see the “Allowance for Loan Losses” section of “Loans and Credit Risk” included in this MD&A.

Non-interest income is a significant source of revenue and an important part of WesBanco’s results of operations. WesBanco offers its customers a wide range of retail, commercial, investment and electronic banking services, which are viewed as a vital component of WesBanco’s strategy to attract and maintain new and current customers, as well as providing additional fee income beyond normal spread-related revenue to WesBanco. Non-interest income increased $2.6 million or 20.6% for the third quarter 2008 compared to the third quarter 2007, and $5.8 million or 14.7% for the year-to-date period 2008 compared to 2007. These changes were primarily due to the addition of Oak Hill and the associated increases in banking service charges on deposits, ATM’s and debit cards, as well as the addition of its securities and insurance businesses to WesBanco’s similar non-banking business lines.

Trust fees declined in the third quarter and year-to-date as compared to the prior year periods due to lower market-related fees for assets under management, and lower estate fees due to timing and a lower mandated State of West Virginia fee schedule for estate administration. The market value of total trust assets at September 30, 2008 and 2007 was $2.7 billion and $3.1 billion, respectively.

Service charges on deposits increased $1.6 million and $4.9 million for the quarter and nine month periods in 2008, respectively as compared to the same periods in 2007. This increase is due primarily to the acquisition of Oak Hill and related increases in service charges on overall deposits. Bank owned life insurance income increased from the third quarter of 2007 but decreased for the nine month period in 2008. The acquisition of Oak Hill accounted for the increase during the quarter and partially offset the year to date 2008 effects of a $0.9 million gain recognized in the second quarter of 2007. Mortgage banking income was higher in the third quarter of 2008 due to the recovery of impairment on mortgage servicing rights, but lower for the nine month period due to an overall decline in market activity. Securities gains increased in both periods due primarily to the sale of certain equity securities for the quarter and year to date, along with selective sale activity in the municipal and mortgage-backed security portfolios in the year-to-date period. During the third quarter of 2007, gains on the early extinguishment of debt of $0.9 million resulted from a called FHLB advance.

Service fees on ATM and debit cards increased 38.1% and 39.7% for the third quarter and nine months ended 2008, as compared to the same periods in 2007 due primarily to the acquisition of Oak Hill as well as enhancements associated with the respective fee programs. Additionally, net securities and insurance revenues increased during both periods due primarily to the Oak Hill acquisition.

Other income increased for the quarter and nine month periods in 2008, which included a first quarter gain resulting from the mandatory redemption of VISA Class B common stock for $0.4 million, while 2007 included a first quarter gain on sale of real estate related to a former branch facility of $1.0 million.

For the three months ended September 30, 2008, total non-interest income comprised 26.2% of total net tax-equivalent revenues as compared to 29.1% for the quarter ended September 30, 2007. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, total non-interest income comprised 26.3% of total net tax-equivalent revenues as compared to 29.5% during the 2007 period.

Non-interest expense increased $8.5 million or 30.8% for the third quarter and $27.9 million or 34.4% for the year-to-date period 2008 compared to 2007, primarily due to the acquisition of Oak Hill and its related expenses.

Salaries and wages increased by $3.5 million or 32.6% for the third quarter and $11.0 million or 35.4% for the year to date period 2008 as compared to 2007. The increases were primarily due to the Oak Hill acquisition and normal increases in employee compensation. The number of full-time equivalent (“FTE”) employees of 1,519 at September 30, 2008 compares to 1,177 at September 30, 2007. WesBanco reduced its FTE count following the second quarter completion of the Oak Hill data processing system conversion and associated bank merger, along with the sale of five former Oak Hill branch offices, and the closing of two additional branch offices during 2008.

Employee benefit costs increased $0.5 million or 13.0% for the third quarter and $2.1 million or 18.9% for the year to date period 2008 as compared to 2007 primarily due to the increase in costs associated with the addition of Oak Hill employees and continued increases in health and life insurance costs as well as higher payroll taxes, somewhat offset by lower pension expense. As of August 1, 2007, the existing WesBanco pension plan was frozen to all new entrants from acquisitions or new employee hires. Additionally, Oak Hill’s 401(k) plan was merged into WesBanco’s KSOP during the second quarter 2008.

During the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008, WesBanco incurred restructuring and merger-related expenses of $0.5 million and $3.2 million respectively, which represented severance payments, travel expenses, training costs, data processing conversion and various other post-merger related costs in connection with the acquisition of Oak Hill. For the current quarter, an executive level departure resulted in the noted restructuring expense.

Marketing expenses increased $0.7 million or 56.1% for the third quarter and $1.1 million or 32.4% for the year to date period as compared to the same periods in 2007 due to higher advertising costs associated with several retail customer initiatives during the 2008 third quarter and the effects of a new checking account campaign in the early part of 2008 primarily targeted for the new market areas of Oak Hill.

Net occupancy, equipment, intangible asset amortization, postage, communication, miscellaneous taxes and other operating expenses all saw increases mostly related to the acquisition, with some additional impact in occupancy and equipment expense categories from last year’s technology platform conversion to new hardware and operating software.

INCOME TAXES

The provision for income taxes decreased $0.8 million or 40.8% in the third quarter of 2008 and $1.2 million or 17.1% for the nine months as compared to the same 2007 periods due to a decrease in pre-tax income for the nine month period and a decrease in the effective tax rate for both periods. For the third quarter of 2008 the effective tax rate decreased to 8.9% as compared to 16.3% for the third quarter 2007 and decreased to 15.1% for the first nine months of 2008 as compared to 16.9% in the first nine months of 2007 due primarily to a higher percentage of tax-exempt income to total income, the benefit of certain tax credits, and a reduction of certain tax reserves associated with uncertain tax positions as well as the expiration of the statute of limitations.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

SUMMARY

Total assets decreased 4.4% in the first nine months of 2008, while total shareholders’ equity increased 0.9% at September 30, 2008 compared to December 31, 2007 levels. Lower total assets were primarily the result of a 3.3% decrease in total loans due to slowing general economic conditions, planned reductions in the mortgage portfolios, increased pay down of existing commercial loans, and the sale of five former Oak Hill Banks branches in the second quarter. Deposits decreased 9.9% in the first nine months of 2008 due to WesBanco’s strategy of reducing deposit costs and replacing these deposits with lower cost wholesale borrowings (primarily FHLB borrowings), and due to the sale of five branches. Increases in shareholders’ equity were primarily due to net income for the period partially offset by dividends paid and a reduction in accumulated other comprehensive income. Tangible equity to tangible assets increased from 5.96% at December 31, 2007 to 6.48% at September 30, 2008.

Total investment securities, which are a source of liquidity for WesBanco as well as a major contributor to interest income, decreased by 7.4% or $69.7 million from December 31, 2007 to September 30, 2008. The decline was due primarily to sales, calls, maturities and pay-downs of government agencies and investments in obligations of state and political subdivisions, which decreased $75.0 million or 16.0% year-to-date 2008 compared to December 31, 2007 levels. The proceeds of the aforementioned sales and maturities were used to satisfy normal liquidity needs of the Company. Investments in mortgage-backed and corporate equity securities increased $3.6 million and $1.6 million, respectively year-to-date 2008 compared to December 31, 2007.

WesBanco’s portfolio is primarily comprised of agency mortgage-backed securities and rated, insured state and municipal securities. WesBanco has no exposure to government-sponsored enterprise preferred stocks and collateralized debt obligations, and only an immaterial amount of corporate debt securities and non-agency collateralized mortgage obligations. Total gross unrealized security losses within the portfolio were an immaterial 0.9% of total available for sale securities at September 30, 2008, relating to interest rate fluctuations, not credit downgrades.

LOANS AND CREDIT RISK

The loan portfolio is WesBanco’s single largest balance sheet asset classification and the largest source of interest income. The risk that borrowers will be unable or unwilling to repay their obligations and default on loans is inherent in all lending activities. In addition to the inherent risk of a change in a borrower’s repayment capacity, economic conditions and other factors beyond WesBanco’s control can adversely impact credit risk. WesBanco’s primary goal in managing credit risk is to minimize the impact of default by an individual borrower or group of borrowers. Credit risk is managed through the initial underwriting process as well as through ongoing monitoring and administration of the loan portfolio that varies by category. WesBanco’s credit policies establish standard underwriting guidelines for each type of loan and require an appropriate evaluation of the credit characteristics of each borrower. This evaluation includes the borrower’s repayment capacity; the adequacy of collateral, if any, to secure the loan; and other factors unique to each loan that may increase or mitigate its risk.

WesBanco’s loan portfolio consists of the five major categories set forth in Table 7. WesBanco makes loans for business and consumer purposes. Business loans consist of construction, commercial and commercial real estate loans, while consumer loans consist of residential real estate loans, home equity and other consumer loans. Each category entails certain distinct elements of risk that impact the manner in which those loans are underwritten, monitored, and administered. WesBanco did not originate sub-prime residential real estate loans.

⁽¹⁾  Loans are presented gross of the allowance for loan losses, and net of unearned income on consumer loans and unamortized net deferred loan fees.

Total loans decreased 4.2% between September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007. Commercial and industrial loans decreased primarily due to unscheduled payoffs on certain large available lines of credit, while commercial real estate loans decreased as a result of scheduled repayments and a large commercial construction loan payoff. In addition, the slowing general economic conditions reduced overall loan demand. The decline in residential real estate loans continues to primarily reflect planned decreases consistent with WesBanco’s strategy of selling most new residential mortgages in the secondary market and to a lesser extent the impact of a decline in the housing market on overall mortgage lending activity. Home equity lines of credit increased through higher loan originations despite a recent tightening of credit standards in this category. Consumer loans have decreased due primarily to reduced consumer demand and lower approval rates for direct and indirect loans. Loans held for sale decreased as a result of completing the sale of five branches in the second quarter. WesBanco remains focused on improving the overall profitability and credit quality of the loan portfolio through disciplined pricing and underwriting, which also had the effect of reducing new loan volume and quarter end loan totals.

NON-PERFORMING ASSETS, IMPAIRED LOANS AND LOANS PAST DUE 90 DAYS OR MORE

Non-performing assets consist of non-accrual and renegotiated loans, other real estate acquired through or in lieu of foreclosure, bank premises held for sale, and repossessed automobiles acquired to satisfy defaulted consumer loans. Other impaired loans include certain loans that are internally classified as substandard or doubtful.

Loans are placed on non-accrual status when they become past due 90 days or more unless they are both well secured and in the process of collection. Except for certain consumer and residential real estate loans, when a loan is placed on non-accrual, WesBanco generally recognizes interest income on the cash basis if recovery of principal is reasonably assured.

Loans are categorized as renegotiated when WesBanco, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider. Concessions that may be granted include a reduction of the interest rate, the amount of accrued interest, or the principal amount of the loan; as well as an extension of the maturity date or the amortization schedule. Loans may be removed from renegotiated status after they have performed according to the renegotiated terms for a period of time.

Other real estate and repossessed assets consist primarily of real estate acquired through or in lieu of foreclosure and repossessed automobiles or other personal property.

TABLE 8. NON-PERFORMING ASSETS

(unaudited, in thousands)	September 30, 2008		December 31, 2007
Non-accrual:
Commercial	$	6,075	$	3,508
Commercial real estate		26,377		13,596
Residential real estate		1,603		2,086
Home equity		195		379
Consumer		134		289
Total non-performing loans		34,384		19,858
Other real estate owned and repossessed assets		2,800		3,998
Total non-performing assets	$	37,184	$	23,856

Non-performing loans, which consist of non-accrual and renegotiated loans, increased $14.5 million or 73.1% between December 31, 2007 and September 30, 2008. These increases are primarily attributable to the overall impact of a slowing economy on commercial and industrial and commercial real estate loans. In addition, four commercial real estate loans totaling $7.0 million migrated to non-accrual status during the second and third quarters. Non-performing loans as a percent of total loans were 0.96% for the third quarter of 2008 compared to 0.39% for the third quarter of 2007.

Other real estate and repossessed assets decreased $1.2 million between December 31, 2007 and September 30, 2008 despite higher foreclosure activity during the period, due to aggressive efforts to reduce the level of other real estate inventory. A larger number of residential foreclosures may occur over the next few quarters as 90 day past due loans work their way towards final foreclosure, with much of this activity occurring in our western Ohio markets.

25

Other impaired loans consists of loans that are internally risk graded as substandard or doubtful when they are not fully secured by collateral or the observable market price for a loan is less than its outstanding balance. Other impaired loans continue to accrue interest, have not been renegotiated, and may not be delinquent or have a record of delinquent payments. Other impaired loans decreased $1.6 million to $11.2 million at September 30, 2008 from the total at December 31, 2007 primarily due to loan payoffs and scheduled principal reductions, as well as the migration of certain impaired loans to non-performing status.

TABLE 9. LOANS ACCRUING INTEREST PAST DUE 90 DAYS OR MORE

Residential real estate		7,098		4,393
Home equity		1,014		835
Consumer		932		804
Total loans past due 90 days or more	$	12,274	$	11,526

Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest increased 6.5% from December 31, 2007 to September 30, 2008 primarily due to deterioration in economic conditions mainly in our Ohio metropolitan markets. The increase in residential real estate and home equity delinquency is not attributable to sub-prime lending as WesBanco does not have any material direct exposure to sub-prime residential real estate loans. Nevertheless, prime residential real estate loans have not been immune to the problems that have plagued sub-prime portfolios as all consumers are impacted by high energy prices, increasing unemployment and current economic conditions. Migration of loans to non-accrual status resulted in most of the decrease in commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loans that were 90 days or more past due.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2008 increased $4.9 million from December 31, 2007 to reflect the higher level of probable but unconfirmed loss attributable to general economic conditions. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans increased to 1.21% at September 30, 2008 from 1.04% at December 31, 2007. Net charge-offs increased $7.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 compared to the same period last year. Net loan charge-offs to average loans were 0.55% for the third quarter 2008, 0.43% for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 0.19% for first nine months of last year.

Net charge-offs of all categories of loans increased for the third quarter and the first nine months of 2008 compared to the same periods last year with the most significant increases in commercial and industrial, commercial real estate and consumer loans due to economic conditions. Net charge-offs of residential real estate and home equity loans represent only 0.21% of average loans collectively. Commercial real estate, particularly certain multifamily loans and residential real estate losses have been exacerbated by declines in property values. Approximately two-thirds of the net charge offs are from the central and western Ohio markets, where economic conditions are worse than in the bank’s core West Virginia markets.

The allowance for all categories of loans increased with the most significant additions to commercial and industrial and commercial real estate loans to reflect the overall credit deterioration that has resulted in higher net charge-offs, increased non-performing loans and a greater number of loans with higher risk characteristics.

Although the allowance is allocated as described in Table 11, the total allowance is available to absorb actual losses in any category of the loan portfolio along with deposit account overdraft losses. Management believes the allowance for loan losses is appropriate to absorb probable credit losses associated with the loan portfolio and deposit overdrafts at September 30, 2008. In the event that management’s estimation of probable losses is different from actual experience, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary to reflect differences between original estimates of loss in previous periods and actual losses in subsequent periods.

Deposits, which represent WesBanco’s primary source of funds, are offered in various account forms at various rates through WesBanco’s 109 branches in West Virginia, Ohio and Western Pennsylvania. Total deposits decreased by $386.5 million or 9.9% for the nine month period in 2008. During the second quarter, WesBanco sold five of the branches acquired from Oak Hill with deposits totaling $65.1 million.

Money market deposits decreased $106.6 million or 17.4% year to date, with the aforementioned branch sales resulting in $14.8 million of the overall reduction, while the remainder was due to the decline in the overall interest rate environment.

Certificates of deposit decreased $265.1 million or 13.8% year to date. The aforementioned branch sales resulted in $35.0 million of the reduction while the remainder was due to the effects of an overall corporate strategy designed with a focus on demand deposit accounts and an overall product mix that can be offered at a significantly lower cost to the bank. Certificates of deposit totaling approximately $1.2 billion at September 30, 2008 are scheduled to mature within the next year. WesBanco will continue to focus on its deposit strategies and improving its overall mix of transaction accounts to total deposits as well as offering special promotions on certain certificates of deposit maturities and savings products based on competition, sales strategies, liquidity needs and wholesale borrowing costs. Certificates of deposit of $100,000 or more totaled $509.5 million at September 30, 2008 and $580.2 million at December 31, 2007, almost all of which are retail oriented. WesBanco does not solicit brokered or other deposits out-of-market or over the internet, but does participate in the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Services (CDARS®) program.

Borrowings are a significant source of funding for WesBanco, and in the current interest rate environment, they can be less expensive than certificates of deposit. At September 30, 2008, Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings increased $207.3 million or 51.1% from December 31, 2007. The Company has carefully managed deposit rates, particularly in markets where larger banks are aggressively pursuing higher cost certificates of deposit and money market deposit accounts, and used more reasonably priced borrowings as part of its strategy to improve the net interest margin. At September 30, 2008 these borrowings were $613.1 million compared to $405.8 million at December 31, 2007.

Other short-term borrowings, which consist of federal funds purchased, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, treasury tax and loan notes and a revolving line of credit, totaled $271.1 million at September 30, 2008 compared to $329.5 million at December 31, 2007. The decrease from year-end was primarily due to a $52.0 million decrease in federal funds purchased, and $24.0 million in repayments on the revolving line of credit, which were partially offset by an increase in securities sold under agreements to repurchase from certain retail customers. The revolving line of credit is a senior obligation of the parent company that provides for maximum borrowings of up to $48.0 million with interest accruing at a rate equivalent to the one month LIBOR plus 90 basis points, maturing in May 2009, and was used in 2007 to fund the cash portion of the Oak Hill acquisition as well as for general corporate purposes, including share repurchases. It had an outstanding balance of $24.0 million at September 30, 2008 and $48.0 million at December 31, 2007.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

Shareholders’ equity was $585.3 million at September 30, 2008 compared to $580.3 million at December 31, 2007. Total equity was increased for current nine month earnings of $32.3 million and decreased by a $5.5 million change in other comprehensive loss and the payment of dividends of $22.3 million. No shares were repurchased during the quarter. As of September 30, 2008, WesBanco had repurchased 415,675 shares on a one million share repurchase plan approved by the Board of Directors in March 2007, leaving 584,325 shares to be repurchased from this 2007 authorization. In February 2008 WesBanco’s Board of Directors authorized the increase of its dividend from $0.275 per share to $0.28 per share, a 1.8% increase. This dividend increase represented the twenty-third consecutive year of dividend increases at WesBanco.

WesBanco is subject to risk-based capital guidelines that measure capital relative to risk-weighted assets and off-balance sheet instruments. The Bank, as well as WesBanco, Inc., maintain Tier 1, Total Capital and Leverage ratios well above minimum regulatory levels. There are various legal limitations under federal and state laws that limit the payment of dividends from the Banks to the parent company. As of September 30, 2008, under FDIC regulations, WesBanco could receive without prior regulatory approval a dividend of up to $12.6 million.

CAPITAL PURCHASE PROGRAM

Wesbanco has received approval from the United States Treasury Department (“Treasury Department”) to participate in the Capital Purchase Program (“CPP”) developed by the Treasury Department under the Troubled Asset Relief Program (“TARP”) authorized by the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (the “EESA”). It is anticipated that Wesbanco will issue $75,000,000 in cumulative, perpetual, non-voting senior preferred stock (“Preferred Stock”) to the Treasury Department, which represents approximately 2% of risk weighted assets.

The Preferred Stock will have the following terms which are essentially standard terms under the CPP. First of all, it will have a dividend rate of 5% of annual dividends, payable quarterly, for the first five years after issuance, and 9% thereafter, until redeemed.

Secondly, dividends on Wesbanco’s common stock may not be increased prior to three years after the Preferred Stock has been issued, without prior Treasury consent, unless all the Preferred Stock has been redeemed or transferred by the Treasury. In addition, should dividends on the Preferred Stock not have been paid in full, Wesbanco will not be able to redeem or repurchase, or pay dividends on, shares of its capital stock that are pari passu or junior to the Preferred Stock.

Third, the Preferred Stock will be non-voting, except for authorizations of capital stock senior to the Preferred Stock or any proposed changes in the rights of the Preferred Stock, including changes upon any merger, exchange or similar transaction that would adversely affect the rights of the Preferred Stock holder. In addition, the Preferred Stock will entitle the holder to elect two directors when dividends are not paid for six periods, whether or not consecutive.

Fourth, the Preferred Stock is redeemable at Wesbanco’s election, subject to applicable regulatory approval, in the first three years following issuance only with proceeds from an offering of Tier 1 Preferred Stock or common stock by Wesbanco (“Qualified Equity Offering”), subject to a minimum redemption of 25% of the amount of Preferred Stock originally issued. Thereafter, Preferred Stock is redeemable at Wesbanco’s election, subject to any required regulatory approval, in whole or in part. The redemption price is the Preferred Stock’s issue price, plus accrued but unpaid dividends.

Fifth, no contract restrictions are permitted on the Preferred Stock. Wesbanco will have to file a shelf Registration Statement promptly for resale of the Preferred Stock and provide the Treasury Department with piggyback registration rights. Finally, the Treasury Department may request that the Preferred Stock be listed on a national securities exchange.

In connection with the purchase of any Preferred Stock, the Treasury Department will require Wesbanco to issue warrants (“Warrants”) to purchase shares of Wesbanco’s common stock equal to 15% of the amount of Preferred Stock purchased. The initial exercise price and the market price for determining the amount of the Warrants will be the average trading price of such common stock on the 20 trading days preceding the approval of the application. Under the current approval, warrants would be issued for approximately 439,000 shares of common stock with an exercise price of approximately $25.61 per share.

The exercise price of the Warrants shall be reduced by 15% of the original exercise price on each six month anniversary of issuance, if any required shareholder approvals have not been received, subject to a maximum reduction of 45% of the original exercise price. The Warrants will also include certain standard terms under the CPP. These terms include that the Warrants will be issued for a term of 10 years. The Warrants will be exercisable by the Treasury Department immediately, in whole or in part. There will be no contractual restrictions on transfer of the Warrants. The Treasury Department may transfer or exercise up to an aggregate of 50% of the Warrants prior to the earlier of (i) the date Wesbanco has received aggregate proceeds of not less than 100% of the issue price of the Preferred Stock from one or more Qualified Equity Offering and (ii) December 31, 2009. Wesbanco is required to file a shelf Registration Statement covering the resale of the Warrants and the underlying common stock and to grant the Treasury

29

Department piggyback registration rights for the Warrants in the underlying common stock. Wesbanco will apply for listing of the common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. Upon exercise of the Warrants, the Treasury Department will not exercise voting rights with respect to such shares of common stock. If Wesbanco has received aggregate gross proceeds from one or more Qualified Equity Offerings on or prior to December 31, 2009, the number of Warrants will be reduced by 50%.

Under Wesbanco’s Articles of Incorporation, shareholder approval is not necessary for the issuance of the Preferred Stock or the Warrants exercisable for common stock.

A condition to any Preferred Stock investment by the Treasury Department is that Wesbanco and its “Senior Executive Officers” covered by EESA modify or terminate all benefit plans, arrangements and agreements (including Golden Parachute Agreements) to the extent necessary to be in compliance with and agree, for as long as the Treasury Department holds any equity or debt securities of Wesbanco, to be bound by the executive compensation and corporate governance requirements of Section 111 of EESA and Treasury Department guidance or regulations thereunder. Wesbanco is taking such steps to meet the executive compensation restrictions of the CPP.

LIQUIDITY RISK

Liquidity is defined as the degree of readiness to convert assets into cash with minimum loss. Liquidity risk is managed through WesBanco’s ability to provide adequate funds to meet changes in loan demand, unexpected outflows in deposits and other borrowings as well as to take advantage of market opportunities and meet operating cash needs. This is accomplished by maintaining liquid assets in the form of securities, sufficient borrowing capacity and a stable core deposit base. Liquidity is centrally monitored by WesBanco’s Asset/Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”).

WesBanco determines the degree of required liquidity by the relationship of total holdings of liquid assets to the possible need for funds to meet unexpected deposit losses and/or loan demands. The ability to quickly convert assets to cash at a minimal loss is a primary function of WesBanco’s investment portfolio management. Federal funds sold and U.S. Treasury and government agency securities maturing within three months are classified as secondary reserve assets. These secondary reserve assets, combined with the cash flow from the loan portfolio and the remaining sectors of the investment portfolio, and other sources, adequately meet the liquidity requirements of WesBanco.

Securities are the principal source of liquidity for WesBanco. Securities totaled $867.4 million at September 30, 2008, of which $866.0 million were classified as available-for-sale. At September 30, 2008, WesBanco has approximately $11.3 million in securities scheduled to mature within one year. Additional cash flows may be anticipated from approximately $125.9 million in callable bonds, which have call dates within the next year, from loans scheduled to mature within the next year of $652.2 million and normal monthly loan repayments. At September 30, 2008, WesBanco had $126.8 million of cash and cash equivalents, a portion of which may also serve as an additional source of liquidity.

Deposit flows are another principal factor affecting overall bank liquidity. Deposits totaled $3.5 billion at September 30, 2008. Deposit flows are impacted by current interest rates, products and rates offered by WesBanco versus its competition, as well as customer behavior. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature within one year totaled $1.2 billion at September 30, 2008. In addition to the relatively stable core deposit base, the Bank maintains a line of credit with the FHLB as an additional funding source. Available lines of credit with the FHLB at September 30, 2008 approximated $658.5 million. At September 30, 2008, WesBanco had unpledged available-for-sale securities with a book value of $279.8 million that could be used for collateral or sold, excluding FHLB blanket liens on WesBanco’s mortgage-related assets. Alternative funding sources may include the issuance of additional junior subordinated debt within allowed capital guidelines, utilization of existing lines of credit with third party banks along with seeking other lines of credit, borrowings under repurchase agreement lines, increasing deposit rates to attract additional funds, accessing brokered deposits as well as selling certain investment securities categorized as available-for-sale in order to maintain adequate levels of liquidity.

The principal sources of the parent company liquidity are dividends from the Bank, cash and investments on hand, and a revolving line of credit with another bank. There are various legal limitations under federal and state laws that limit the payment of dividends from the Banks to the parent company. As of September 30, 2008, under FDIC regulations, WesBanco could receive without prior regulatory approval dividends totaling $12.6 million from the Bank. Additional liquidity is provided by the parent company’s security portfolio of $2.8 million, and an available line of credit with an independent commercial bank of $48.0 million, of which $24.0 million was outstanding at September 30, 2008.

At September 30, 2008, WesBanco had outstanding commitments to extend credit in the ordinary course of business approximating $727.8 million compared to $687.4 million at December 31, 2007. On a historical basis, only a small portion of these commitments will result in an outflow of funds.

Management believes WesBanco has sufficient current liquidity to meet current obligations to borrowers, depositors and others.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The disclosures set forth in this item are qualified by the section captioned “Forward-Looking Statements” included in Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of this report.

MARKET RISK

The primary objective of WesBanco’s ALCO is to maximize net interest income within established policy parameters. This objective is accomplished through the management of balance sheet composition, market risk exposures arising from changing economic conditions and liquidity risk.

Market risk is defined as the risk of loss due to adverse changes in the fair value of financial instruments resulting from fluctuations in interest rates and equity prices. Management considers interest rate risk WesBanco’s most significant market risk. Interest rate risk is the exposure to adverse changes in net interest income due to changes in interest rates. Consistency of WesBanco’s net interest income is largely dependent on effective management of interest rate risk. As interest rates change in the market, rates earned on interest rate sensitive assets and rates paid on interest rate sensitive liabilities do not necessarily move concurrently. Differing rate sensitivities may arise because fixed rate assets and liabilities may not have the same maturities or because variable rate assets and liabilities differ in the timing and/or the percentage of rate changes.

WesBanco’s ALCO, comprised of senior management, monitors and manages interest rate risk within Board approved policy limits. Interest rate risk is monitored primarily through the use of an earnings simulation model. The model is highly dependent on assumptions, which change regularly as the balance sheet and interest rates change. The key assumptions and strategies employed are analyzed bi-monthly and reviewed by ALCO.

The earnings simulation model projects changes in net interest income resulting from the effect of changes in interest rates. Certain shortcomings are inherent in the methodologies used in the earnings simulation model. Modeling changes in net interest income requires making certain assumptions regarding prepayment rates, callable bonds, and adjustments to non-time deposit interest rates which may or may not reflect the manner in which actual yields and costs respond to changes in market interest rates. Prepayment assumptions and adjustments to non-time deposit rates at varying levels of interest rates are based primarily on historical experience and current market rates. Security portfolio maturities and prepayments are assumed to be reinvested in similar instruments and callable bond forecasts are adjusted at varying levels of interest rates. While we believe such assumptions to be reasonable, there can be no assurance that assumed prepayment rates, callable bond forecasts and non-time deposit rate changes will approximate actual future results. Moreover, the net interest income sensitivity chart presented in Table 1, “Net Interest Income Sensitivity,” assumes the composition of interest sensitive assets and liabilities existing at the beginning of the period remains constant over the period being measured and also assumes that a particular change in interest rates is reflected uniformly across the yield curve regardless of the duration of the maturity or repricing of specific assets and liabilities. Since the assumptions used in modeling changes in interest rates are uncertain, the simulation analysis should not be relied upon as being indicative of actual results. The analysis may not consider all actions that WesBanco could employ in response to changes in interest rates.

Management is aware of the significant effect inflation has on interest rates and can have on financial performance. WesBanco’s ability to cope with this is best determined by analyzing its capability to respond to changing interest rates and its ability to manage noninterest income and expense. WesBanco monitors its mix of interest-rate sensitive assets and liabilities through ALCO in order to reduce the impact of inflation on net interest income. Management also controls the effects of inflation by reviewing the prices of its products and services, by introducing new products and services and by controlling overhead expenses.

Interest rate risk policy limits are determined by measuring the anticipated change in net interest income over a twelve month period assuming an immediate and sustained 200 and 100 basis point increase or decrease in market interest rates compared to a stable rate or base model. WesBanco’s current policy limits this exposure to a reduction of 12.5% and 5.0% or less, respectively, of net interest income from the base model for a twelve month period. Table 1, “Net Interest Income Sensitivity,” shows WesBanco’s interest rate sensitivity at September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 assuming both a 200 and 100 basis point interest rate change, compared to a base model.

TABLE 1. NET INTEREST INCOME SENSITIVITY

Immediate Change in Interest Rates	Percentage Change in Net Interest Income from Base over One Year		ALCO
(basis points)	September 30, 2008	December 31, 2007	Guidelines
+200	(5.0%)	(10.2%)	(12.5%)
+100	(2.5%)	(5.0%)	(5.0%)
-100	1.9%	3.5%	(5.0%)
-200	0.0%	4.5%	(12.5%)

Throughout most of the first three quarters of 2007, the yield curve was relatively flat or somewhat inverted, particularly between short-term funding rates and longer-term rates for investments and loans, causing many banks to experience lower net interest margins. In mid-third quarter, rate expectations began to change to a lower interest rate environment, due to market conditions and liquidity concerns in the sub-prime and collateralized debt instrument markets. For the remainder of 2007, the Federal Reserve Bank provided liquidity to the markets and lowered the benchmark federal funds rate charged between banks and the discount rate charged to banks, resulting in these rates ending the year at 4.25% and 4.75%, respectively, from 5.25% and 6.25% before the rate cuts. Rates have continued to drop throughout the first three quarters of 2008, and these rates ended the quarter at 2.00% and 2.25%, respectively. Subsequent to quarter-end, two additional rate cuts have occurred, to levels of 1.00% for federal funds and 1.25% for the discount rate, as part of a widespread governmental response to tight lending conditions, liquidity issues amongst banks in the overall

31

marketplace, and the overall weak economy. Economists and the market generally expect further decreases in the federal funds rate, either later this year or in 2009, with rate increases now pushed out to later into 2009, if at all, as the current weak economy exhibits many signs of stress in a general recessionary environment. A widening of the curve between short and longer term interest rates throughout much of 2008 has resulted in a significant net interest income benefit to WesBanco.

The earnings simulation model currently projects that net interest income for the next twelve month period will increase by 1.9% and 0.0% if interest rates were to fall immediately by 100 and 200 basis points, respectively, with the falling 200 basis point rate environment impacted by natural interest floors in certain short term deposit and borrowing types, as short term interest rates could only drop a portion of such a linear, parallel rate curve shift. Net interest income would decrease by 2.5% and 5.0% if rates increased by 100 and 200 basis points. The decrease in liability sensitivity between December 31, 2007 and September 30, 2008 was a result of changes in balance sheet composition primarily as short term borrowings were lengthened through the FHLB, as well as reductions in MMDAs and certain CD maturities due to customer preferences and the overall lower interest rate environment. The continued reduction in fixed rate, longer-term residential mortgages has also benefited the asset/liability position. These changes favorably impacted WesBanco’s sensitivity to rising interest rates.

As an alternative to the immediate rate shock analysis, the ALCO monitors interest rate risk by ramping or increasing interest rates 200 basis points gradually over a twelve month period. WesBanco’s current policy limits this exposure to 5.0% of net interest income from the base model for a twelve month period. Management believes that the ramping analysis reflects a more realistic movement of interest rates, whereas the immediate rate shock reflects a worst case scenario. The simulation model at September 30, 2008 using the 200 basis point increasing rate ramp analysis projects that net interest income would decrease 1.5% over the next twelve months, compared to a 3.4% decrease at December 31, 2007.

WesBanco also periodically measures the economic value of equity, which is defined as the market value of equity in various increasing and decreasing rate scenarios. At September 30, 2008, the market value of equity as a percent of base in a 200 basis point rising rate environment would decrease 0.9%, and in a 200 basis point falling rate environment it would decrease 9.6% as compared to decreases of 1.0% and 12.0%, respectively, for the same increasing and decreasing rate environments as of December 31, 2007. WesBanco’s policy is to limit such change to minus 25% for a +/- 200 basis point change in interest rates.

WesBanco’s ALCO evaluates various strategies to reduce the exposure to interest rate fluctuations. These strategies for most of 2008 have emphasized reducing liability sensitivity due to an above policy guideline percentage relative to the 200 basis point rising rate scenario at year end 2007, and an expectation until more recently of a rising rate environment for 2009. As a result, the liability sensitivity to rising rates has been reduced by approximately one half in terms of net interest income change since year end. Among the strategies that are evaluated from time to time are extending borrowing terms with the FHLB and structuring repurchase agreements with terms providing some protection for future rate increases while minimizing current period rates paid, managing the level of WesBanco’s fixed rate residential real estate loans maintained in the loan portfolio versus selling them in the secondary market, remixing of the loan portfolio as residential mortgages paydown into shorter-lived, higher-yielding commercial loans, offering special maturity, competitively priced short-term certificates of deposit to offset runoff in money market deposit accounts, and in certain markets, regionally pricing certain deposit types to increase sales volume. Other strategies include emphasizing marketing programs to grow lower cost and non-interest bearing transaction accounts, and using the CDARS^® program and structured repurchase agreements as alternative wholesale borrowing sources. The potential use of interest rate swap, cap and floor agreements to match fund certain long-term commercial loans or serve as a hedge against rising and/or falling rates, and using investment security cash flows to fund any realized loan growth or to pay down short-term borrowings are also evaluated as potential strategies by ALCO.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES— WesBanco’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) have concluded that WesBanco’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), based on their evaluation of these controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, are effective at the reasonable assurance level as discussed below to ensure that information required to be disclosed by WesBanco in the reports it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and that such information is accumulated and communicated to WesBanco’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

LIMITATIONS ON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF CONTROLS— WesBanco’s management, including the CEO and CFO, does not expect that WesBanco’s disclosure controls and internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS— There were no changes in WesBanco’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2008 as required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, WesBanco’s internal control over financial reporting.

Agreement shall have no effect upon the Life Insurance Agreement dated July 1, 2003, between WesBanco Bank, Inc. and the Employee; thus, the death benefit of Twenty-five Thousand Dollars ($25,000.00) shall remain in full force and effect.

WesBanco and the Employee mutually agree that the Amended and Restated Salary Continuation Agreement dated November 22, 2005 (the “SERP Agreement”) will continue and the Employee will be entitled to supplemental benefits over and above the benefits provided to Employee under WesBanco’s Defined Benefit Pension Plan.

Under the terms of the SERP Agreement, Employee is entitled to a vested accrued benefit more particularly described on Schedule C, attached hereto and made a part hereof. The parties hereby mutually agree to continue the SERP Agreement during the term of the Consulting Agreement (as hereinafter defined) so that Employee shall continue to accrue additional benefits in accordance with the schedule shown on Schedule C for each year of service provided under the Consulting Agreement as if Employee had not terminated full-time employment with Wesbanco. Thus, for purposes of determining the benefit due Employee under the terms of the SERP contract, the parties agree that the benefit to which she will be entitled at age sixty-five (65) will be the amount set forth in Schedule C for the plan year ending immediately prior to the termination date of the Consulting Agreement determined by vesting the executive in 100% of the accrual balance as shown on the schedule. Thus, if the Consulting Agreement continues through December, 2016, Employee shall be entitled to a benefit amount of Forty Thousand Dollars ($40,000.00) per year payable for ten (10) consecutive years, as provided under the terms and conditions of said SERP Agreement.

4.        Release of Claims. In consideration of the foregoing, WesBanco and Employee hereby mutually and reciprocally agree to release and waive any and all claims or demands (whether known or unknown) which currently exist, arising out of, or connected with, Employee’s full time employment with WesBanco and the termination of Employee’s full time employment, including, but not limited to, all such matters in law, in equity, in contract (oral or written, express or implied), or in tort, (excluding Workers’ Compensation and any such claim for employee benefits to which Employee is entitled as of the last day of Employee’s active full time employment under the express terms of the employee benefit plan) against Employee, WesBanco, any of its parents, subsidiaries, and affiliates or predecessors in interest and any employee benefit plan sponsored by any of them, and the officers, employees, directors, shareholders, fiduciaries and agents of any of them, along with the successors, assigns and heirs of any of the foregoing persons or entities (collectively referred to as the “Releasees”) arising from Employee’s Standard Employment Agreement or voluntary resignation from full time employment. It is specifically understood and agreed between the Employee and WesBanco that this release and waiver includes any such rights or such claims to which the Employee may have been entitled under the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938; the Civil Rights Act of 1866; Equal Pay Act of 1963; Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended; the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974; Title 41 of the Ohio Revised Code, specifically Chapter 4112; Title 47 of the Pennsylvania Statutes, specifically Chapter 17; Chapter 21 of the West Virginia Code; W.Va. Code § 5-11, et seq.; the Rehabilitation Act of 1973; the Civil Rights Act of 1991; the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974; the Older Worker Benefit Protection Act; the Americans with Disabilities Act, and all other federal, state and local law claims, whether statutory or common law,

4

including, but not limited to, those under the laws of the States of West Virginia, Ohio and Pennsylvania, including, but not limited to, the West Virginia Human Rights Act, W.Va. Code § 5-11-1, et seq., the Ohio Civil Rights Commission, and the Pennsylvania Human Relations Act. However, the parties acknowledge that the Employee is not waiving any rights or claims that may arise after this Agreement is executed; provided, however, that the Employee shall be precluded from recovering for the future effects of discrimination or other actions or inactions which occurred or should have occurred prior to this Agreement. The parties further acknowledge that Employee is not waiving or releasing any right or claim under this Agreement, the Consulting Agreement, or any right that she may have or accrue as a participant in any benefit plan and/or as a result of her continuation of employment in a part time capacity following her entry into this Agreement. Additionally, the Employee waives and releases any right she may have to recover any damages resulting from any action or suit instituted on her behalf by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Ohio Civil Rights Commission, the West Virginia Human Rights Commission, or other fair employment practices agencies based upon a claim she is waiving and releasing under this Agreement.

Excluded from this Transition Agreement and Release and Waiver of Claims (in addition to claims that may arise after this Agreement is executed, as provided above) are claims and rights which cannot be waived by law, including but not limited to the right to file a charge with or participate in an investigation conducted by certain government agencies. Employee does, however, waive her right to any monetary recovery should any agency pursue any claims which she has waived and released in this Section 4 on her behalf. Employee represents and warrants that she has not filed any complaint, charge, or lawsuit against WesBanco with any governmental agency and/or any court.

5

In addition, Employee agrees never to sue WesBanco in any forum for any claim she has waived and released under this Section 4, except that she may bring a claim waived and released under this Section 4 under the ADEA to challenge this Transition Agreement and Release and Waiver of Claims. If she violates this Transition Agreement and Release and Waiver of Claims by suing WesBanco for a claim waived and released under this Section 4, other than such a claim under ADEA, Employee shall be liable to WesBanco for its reasonable attorney’s fees and other litigation costs and expenses incurred in defending against such a suit.

5.        Non-Compete Agreement. Employee agrees that for twenty-seven (27) months after separating from full time employment with WesBanco for any reason not, directly or indirectly, to accept employment with, act as a consultant to, or otherwise perform services that are substantially the same or similar to those for which the Employee was compensated by WesBanco (this comparison will be based on job-related functions and responsibilities and not on job title), for any business that is within a radius of fifty (50) miles of the City of Wheeling, which directly competes with any business in which WesBanco or any related or affiliated company (1) is engaged on the date the Employee separates from full time employment with WesBanco for any reason, (2) was engaged at any time within twenty-seven (27) months preceding the date the Employee terminates full time employment with WesBanco for any reason, or (3) in Employee’s knowledge intends to participate at any time within twenty-seven (27) months after the date the Employee separates full time employment with WesBanco for any reason. This restriction applies to any parent, division, affiliate, newly formed or purchased business(es), and/or successor of a business that competes or may compete with WesBanco.

6.        Employee’s Rights. The Employee specifically acknowledges that on the 30th day of September, 2008, officials of WesBanco presented her with this Agreement, thereby informing her of the amounts to which she was entitled upon her transition from full to part time employment and explained to her that, in addition to those amounts, WesBanco would provide the consideration stated herein if, and only if, the Employee (i) executes this Agreement and releases and waives any and all claims she might have against the Releasee as defined herein; (ii) does not revoke this Agreement, as described below; and (iii) otherwise strictly abides by the terms of this Agreement. The Employee further acknowledges that she has been advised by WesBanco that she (i) has the right to consult an attorney of her own choice; (ii) has a minimum of twenty-one (21) days to consider this document before signing it; and (iii) has seven (7) days after she signs this Agreement within which to revoke it, and that the Agreement shall not become enforceable until seven days following the date of the Employee’s signature without her revocation of it.

The toll free telephone number of the Ohio State Bar Association is 1-800-282-6556. The toll free telephone number of the Pennsylvania Bar Lawyer Referral Service is 1-800-692-7375.

The Employee specifically recognizes that, by signing this Agreement, she is waiving any rights to receive any remedial or monetary relief, including without limitation, back pay, front pay, emotional distress damages, reinstatement, damages for injury to reputation, pain and suffering or loss of future income, or punitive damages as a consequence of any charge or complaint filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Ohio Civil Rights Commission, the West Virginia Human Rights Commission, or any similar state or federal agency concerning a claim waived in this Agreement.

7

7.        No Admission of Liability. The parties agree that this Agreement and the offer to enter into this Agreement are not, and shall not be construed in any way as, or deemed to be, an admission by WesBanco or any of the Releasees of any act of wrongdoing or admission of liability or responsibility at any time or in any manner whatsoever. The parties further agree that this Agreement may not be used in any action between the Employee and WesBanco or any of the Releasees, other than for the enforcement of this Agreement or as evidence of a waiver by the Employee.

8.        Program Not to Benefit Others. The parties acknowledge that the Employee’s right to the settlement described herein shall be determined exclusively under the provisions stated herein and the Consulting Agreement and such other agreements and plans as may be applicable, and this Agreement is not intended to, and does not, create rights for the benefit of any other employee or person.

9.        Business Planning. Employee recognizes that, as a matter of business planning, WesBanco routinely reviews and evaluates various proposals for changes in compensation, retirement, and severance programs, as well as proposals for special exit incentive programs. Employee further recognizes that some of the proposals, if adopted and finally implemented, might be more advantageous or less advantageous than the Agreement presently being offered to Employee. Unless and until such changes are formally announced by WesBanco, no one is authorized to give assurances that such changes will or will not occur. Employee understands that WesBanco may adopt new or modified agreements in the future that, depending on her individual circumstances, may be more or less advantageous to Employee than the benefit provided under this

8

Agreement. Employee should not expect or assume that any such new or modified agreement or benefits will be extended on a retroactive basis if Employee leaves full time employment pursuant to this Agreement. No such new or modified agreement or benefit will operate to reduce any vested right of Employee or to reduce or diminish any right provided Employee under this Agreement or the Consulting Agreement.

10.        Final and Binding Agreement. The Employee agrees and recognizes that this Agreement is final and binding when signed by the Employee, subject only to the Employee’s revocation right as described in Paragraph 6 above.

11.        Non-Disparagement. The Employee agrees not to make any disparaging or negative remarks, either orally or in writing, regarding WesBanco or any other Releasee concerning acts occurring before the signing of this Agreement or relating to this Agreement and the matters alleged therein. The Employee further agrees to direct her agents, attorneys, or any other person acting on her behalf to refrain from making such comments.

12.        Remedies. In the event of a breach or threatened breach of all or part of Paragraph 10 of this Agreement, the Employee agrees that WesBanco shall be entitled to injunctive relief and all other remedies available at law or in equity in a court of competent jurisdiction to remedy any such breach or threatened breach. The Employee hereby acknowledges that damages alone would be inadequate and insufficient as a remedy for any such breach or threatened breach. The Employee further agrees that the covenants contained in Paragraph 10 and the remedies contained in this Paragraph 12, shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

13.        References. If any inquiry about the Employee is made to WesBanco as a reference for future employment or for other purposes, WesBanco agrees that it shall state that it will provide the Employee’s dates

9

of employment, job titles and job descriptions, in accordance with WesBanco’s existing personnel policies. Further, WesBanco, including its respective officers, directors, agents, servants, or employees or any of their successors or assigns, shall not make any disparaging or negative remarks, either orally or in writing, regarding the Employee concerning any acts which occurred before the signing of this Agreement or relating to this Agreement. The Employee agrees to direct all inquiries concerning her transition from full time employment to the Director of Human Resources at WesBanco.

14.        Unemployment Compensation. As additional consideration for this Agreement, WesBanco agrees that it will not contest any claim filed by the Employee for unemployment compensation with respect to the Employee’s transition from full time employment described herein.

15.        Voluntary Agreement. The Employee expressly warrants and represents to WesBanco as part of the consideration expressed herein that, before executing this Agreement, she has fully informed herself of its terms, contents, and conditions, and represents that in making this settlement she has had the opportunity to obtain the benefit of the advice of counsel of her choosing and no promise or representation of any kind or character has been made to her by WesBanco, or by anyone acting on their behalf, except as is expressly stated in this Agreement. The Employee acknowledges that she has relied solely and completely upon her own judgment and, if she has so elected, the advice of counsel and other advisors in making this settlement, and that she fully and completely understands both the terms of the settlement and the release; that she fully understands it is a full, complete and final release, and that the payment and other consideration set forth in this Agreement are all the consideration to be conferred upon her in accordance with the parties’ agreement regarding the settlement of the matters described herein. The Employee further represents that she has read this Agreement in

10

its entirety and that she understands all of its terms and enters into and signs this Agreement knowingly and voluntarily, with full knowledge of its significance, and not as a result of any threat, intimidation, or coercion on the part of any person or entity.

16.        Counterparts. This Agreement shall be executed in two counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and together shall constitute one and the same document, with one counterpart being delivered to each party.

17.        Entire Agreement. This Agreement supersedes all other oral and written agreements between the parties hereto as to the matters herein and contains all of the covenants and agreements between the parties with respect to the employment of the Employee by WesBanco and the matters provided herein. The Employee acknowledges that, in executing this Agreement, she has not relied on any representation or statement not set forth herein. This Agreement may not be modified except in writing, signed by the Employee and WesBanco. This Agreement shall be binding on all of the Employee’s heirs, representatives, successors, and assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon any successor of WesBanco by merger or sale of all or substantially all of WesBanco’s assets or stock or by other business combination. The Employee shall not assign any rights or obligations under this Agreement, without the written consent of WesBanco. The Employee further represents that she has read this Agreement in its entirety and that she understands all of its terms and enters into and signs this Agreement knowingly and voluntarily, with full knowledge of its significance, and not as a result of any threat, intimidation or coercion on the part of WesBanco or any Releasee.

18.        Law Governing Agreement.

11

19.        Waiver of Breach Not Deemed Continuing. The waiver of or by any party of a breach or violation of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation.

20.        Construction and Severability. The parties agree that, in all cases, the language of this Agreement shall be construed as a whole, according to its fair meaning, and not strictly for or against either of the parties. Furthermore, in the event that one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, WesBanco shall have the option to enforce the remainder of this Agreement or to cancel it.

21.        Disclosure of Employment Information. Upon execution of an authorization for the release of information concerning the Employee’s employment to any prospective employer, WesBanco will disclose the Employee’s dates of employment, including hire date and separation date; positions; and duties. No other employment information will be provided to any prospective employer.

22.        KSOP Plan. The Employee will continue as a participant in the WesBanco KSOP so long as Employee continues employment as a part-time employee under the Consulting Agreement dated as of the date hereof by and between WesBanco Bank, Inc. and the Employee. Upon termination of the Consulting Agreement, Employee shall be entitled to receive such benefits as Employee shall have accrued in accordance with the terms of the KSOP Plan.

23.        Confidentiality. You understand and agree that even after your separation from employment, you are required to maintain the confidentiality of all proprietary information and knowledge acquired by you

12

during your employment with WesBanco, which belongs to WesBanco or its customers, and which has not been published, disseminated, or otherwise become a matter of general public knowledge. You agree that you will not directly or indirectly solicit known former customers of WesBanco. You agree that you will not disclose or make use of such information, whether with respect to WesBanco’s or its customers’ business, operations, finances, customers, employees or otherwise, and whether in written form or committed to memory.

24.        Transition. Employee will make every effort to ensure a smooth transition, and agrees to cooperate with WesBanco and to provide all necessary information regarding the status of operations, the location of relevant materials, and any other relevant information related to Employee’s responsibilities with WesBanco of which WesBanco should be aware or which WesBanco may request, now or at any later time.

25.        Employee Cooperation. As a free and voluntary act, Employee also further agrees after Employee’s transition from full time to part time employment to cooperate at WesBanco’s expense with any investigations or lawsuits involving WesBanco on matters where Employee had specific knowledge or responsibility. The Employee will be reimbursed at a rate equal to her final base salary computed on an hourly basis. Employee will make herself available at WesBanco’s expense for any litigation, including specifically, but not exclusively, preparation for depositions and trial. Employee will not receive reimbursement for time spent testifying in depositions or trial. Employee will not assist or provide information in any litigation by others against WesBanco except as required under law or formal legal process after timely notice is provided to WesBanco to allow WesBanco to take legal action with respect to the request for information or assistance. Nothing in this Agreement shall restrict or preclude Employee from, or otherwise influence Employee in testifying fully and truthfully in legal or administrative proceedings against WesBanco, as required by law or formal legal process.

13

Except for the foregoing obligation of WesBanco hereunder, and provided that WesBanco properly withholds and remits all applicable taxes due, Employee shall indemnify, hold harmless, and unconditionally release WesBanco from any payment of taxes or penalties, if any, that may be required of Employee as a result of any consideration paid by WesBanco to Employee pursuant to this Agreement.

27.        Headings. Headings are inserted for convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.

28.        Termination or Modification of Benefits. The Employee understands and agrees that nothing in this Agreement shall affect WesBanco’s reserved right to terminate or amend in whole or in part, in any manner whatsoever and with respect to the Employee or any other active or former employee or any group thereof, any employee benefit plan which is presently or which may be offered to WesBanco’s employees.

EXHIBIT 10.2

CONSULTING AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT, made effective this 1st day of October, 2008, by and between WESBANCO BANK, INC., a West Virginia banking corporation, party of the first part (hereinafter called “Wesbanco”), and KRISTINE N. MOLNAR, of Wheeling, West Virginia, party of the second part (hereinafter called “Consultant”).

WHEREAS, the Consultant has worked for a number of years as an executive officer of Wesbanco in a full-time capacity and is a party to an Employment Agreement dated the 2nd day of January, 1998 and an Amended and Restated Change in Control Agreement dated November 22, 2005, both of which it is contemplated would be terminated by agreement of the parties thereto upon execution of a Transition Agreement and Release and Waiver of Claims to be executed by the parties as of the date of execution of this Agreement (the “Transition Agreement”), and

WHEREAS, effective September 30, 2008, Consultant will transition from full-time to part time employment of Wesbanco, and

WHEREAS, Wesbanco desires to retain the services of Consultant in a part-time capacity, as hereinafter set forth, and in connection with the continuing activities of Wesbanco, to be assured of her services in connection therewith on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, and

WHEREAS, Consultant is willing to provide such services in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, THIS AGREEMENT WITNESSETH: That for and in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants hereinafter contained, the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows:

1.        CONSULTING RELATIONSHIP. Wesbanco hereby retains Consultant as a part-time employee to render services (as hereinafter defined) as may be requested from time to time by Wesbanco in conjunction with its corporate community relations and community outreach initiatives and activities, including representing Wesbanco on various non-profit and economic development boards, commissions and committees, and to provide assistance, counsel and advice in business development and customer relationships with new and existing customers of Wesbanco. Consultant hereby agrees to render such services for the compensation herein provided, agrees to be available at such times and in such places as are mutually agreeable and with reasonable notice, as hereinafter defined, and agrees to give her best efforts to such services so long as they shall be required hereunder. “Reasonable notice”, for purposes of this Agreement, shall mean an established schedule of attendance at meetings of various boards, commissions and committees, including meetings with the senior executive officers of Wesbanco on a schedule mutually acceptable to the parties to insure attention to the matters herein described. In no event, however, shall Consultant be required to render services in excess of forty (40) hours per month.

2.        COMPENSATION. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Consultant shall be paid compensation for services rendered hereunder at a fixed amount of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) per year, payable in bi-weekly payments in accordance with the regular payroll system of Wesbanco. In addition, Consultant shall be entitled to be reimbursed her reasonable and necessary business expenses incurred in connection with the services to be performed hereunder. Consultant shall also be entitled to receive such other miscellaneous benefits and perquisites as the Bank provides to its part-time employees generally. The annual compensation amount shall be adjusted effective October 1, 2012, by the increase from the October 1, 2008

2

“CPI Index” as hereinafter defined, to the CPI Index in effect as of September 30, 2012. The percentage of increase shall be multiplied times the annual compensation to determine the increased amount payable hereunder. The “CPI Index” is defined as the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers issued by the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics of the United States Department of Labor (1982-84=100). In no event, however, shall the increased amount exceed the sum of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) so that the adjusted annual compensation amount cannot exceed the sum of Sixty Thousand Dollars ($60,000.00). The adjusted compensation amount shall then constitute the annual compensation to be paid hereunder for the balance of the term of this Agreement. This onetime adjustment in the annual compensation amount shall not have the effect of reducing the annual payment below Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00).

3.        TERM. The term of this Consulting Agreement shall be for a specific term beginning on the first day of October, 2008, and ending on the 31^st day of December, 2016. Notwithstanding the term of this Agreement, Consultant may terminate the agreement at any time upon sixty (60) days prior written notice to Wesbanco, upon the expiration of which time period, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect.

4.        SERVICES. The services to be provided by Consultant hereunder shall consist of representing Wesbanco in its community relations endeavors and activities and assisting in its community outreach initiatives and shall include representing Wesbanco on various non-profit and economic development boards, commissions and committees, and in providing assistance, counsel, advice and interaction with the executive officers of Wesbanco in business development initiatives, establishing and maintaining customer relationships, including initiatives in lending, wealth management, treasury management and private banking services with new and existing customers of Wesbanco. In conjunction with these services, it is anticipated that Consultant

3

will maintain her availability to continue her current participation, if invited, on the boards of directors of OVHS&E, Oglebay Institute and the Regional Economic Development Corporation, as well as to seek invitation to such other boards, commissions and committees as the parties shall mutually agree are reasonable and necessary to the performance of the responsibilities herein undertaken.

5.        DEATH OR DISABILITY. In the event of the death of the employee during the term hereof, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect. Such termination shall not diminish any benefit of employee which has vested on or before Consultant’s death, and such benefits and other payments and benefits then due shall pass, as applicable, to Consultant’s designated beneficiaries or to her estate. Given the nature of the services to be performed by Consultant pursuant to this Agreement, the parties agree that the partial or total disability of the Consultant shall not result in the termination of this Agreement and it shall continue notwithstanding such partial or total disability of the Consultant during the term hereof.

6.        TITLE AND SUPPORT. Consultant shall be designated as an officer of Wesbanco and shall have the title “Executive Vice President – Community Relations”. In addition, Consultant shall be provided with adequate office, clerical and secretarial support and services as may be necessary to perform the duties herein undertaken during the term of this Agreement.

7.        NON-COMPETE AGREEMENT. Consultant agrees that during the term of this Agreement that she will not, directly or indirectly, accept employment with, act as a consultant to, or otherwise perform services that are substantially the same or similar to those for which the Consultant was compensated by

4

Wesbanco (this comparison will be based on job-related functions and responsibilities and not on job title), as a full-time employee, for any business that is within a radius of fifty (50) miles of the City of Wheeling, which directly competes with any business in which Wesbanco or any related or affiliated company (1) is engaged on the date of this Agreement, or (2) is engaged at any time during the term of this Agreement. This restriction applies to any parent, division, affiliate, newly formed or purchased business(es), and/or successor of a business that competes or may compete with Wesbanco.

8.        OTHER EMPLOYMENT. The parties agree that Consultant may maintain other full or part-time employment during the term of this Agreement so long as such employment does not interfere with the performance of the services to be performed by Consultant hereunder. If Consultant accepts employment with an employer which provides health insurance benefits with coverage without pre-existing condition exclusions greater than her then current coverage with Wesbanco and employee premiums no less favorable than that provided to Consultant under the Wesbanco health insurance plan in effect at the time, then Consultant shall participate in that employer’s plan and such benefit shall no longer be provided to Consultant under the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the non-compete provisions of this Agreement, contained in Section 7 hereof, on or after January 1, 2011, Consultant may accept employment with a financial institution which competes with Wesbanco in providing financial services, in which event this Agreement shall terminate in its entirety and be of no further force and effect except that the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement contained in Section 9 hereof shall continue to apply to Consultant and may be enforced by Wesbanco.

9.        CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Without the prior written consent of Wesbanco, Consultant shall not, directly or indirectly, divulge to any person, or use for her own benefit, any confidential information

5

concerning the business, affairs, or customers of Wesbanco, acquired by her during her previous employment with Wesbanco or during the performance of her duties hereunder, it being the intent of Wesbanco and Consultant to restrict Consultant from disseminating or using any information which is unpublished and not readily available to the general public.

10.        MEDICAL INSURANCE. During the term of this Agreement, the Consultant shall be permitted to maintain medical insurance for herself, her spouse and her daughter (so long as she is a dependent for coverage purposes) through Wesbanco’s medical insurance program then in effect upon payment of the premiums for such coverage at the rate, from time to time in effect, for such coverage for employees of Wesbanco.

11.        SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN. Consultant and Wesbanco have entered into an Amended and Restated Salary Continuation Agreement, dated November 22, 2005 (the “SERP Agreement”), pursuant to the terms of which Consultant is entitled to supplemental benefits over and above the benefits provided to Consultant under Wesbanco’s Defined Benefit Pension Plan. Under the terms of the SERP Agreement, Consultant is entitled to a vested accrued benefit more particularly described on Schedule A, attached hereto and made a part hereof. The parties hereby mutually agree to continue the SERP Agreement during the term of this Consulting Agreement so that Consultant shall continue to accrue additional benefits in accordance with the schedule shown on Schedule A for each year of service provided under this Agreement as if Consultant had not terminated full-time employment with Wesbanco. Thus, for purposes of determining the benefit due Consultant under the terms of the SERP contract, the parties agree that the benefit to which she will be entitled at age sixty-five (65) will be the amount set forth in Schedule A for the plan year ending immediately prior to the termination date of this Agreement determined by vesting the executive in 100% of the

6

accrual balance as shown on the schedule. Thus, if this Agreement continues through December, 2016, Consultant shall be entitled to a benefit amount of Forty Thousand Dollars ($40,000.00) per year payable for ten (10) consecutive years, as provided under the terms and conditions of said SERP Agreement.

12.        TERMINATION FOR CAUSE. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Wesbanco shall not pay any benefit under this Agreement if Wesbanco terminates the Consultant’s employment for:

A. Gross negligence or gross neglect of duties;

B. Commission of a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude; or

C. Fraud, disloyalty, dishonesty or willful violation of any law or significant Wesbanco policy committed in connection with the Consultant’s employment and resulting in a material adverse effect on Wesbanco.

13.        DELEGATION OF DUTIES, ASSIGNMENT OF RIGHTS, AND AMENDMENT. Consultant may not delegate the performance of any of her obligations or duties except as to such duties as may be performed by employees of the bank in the ordinary course of their duties, nor assign any rights hereunder without the prior written consent of Wesbanco. Any such purported delegation or assignment in the absence of such written consent shall be void. This Agreement shall be binding on all of the Employee’s heirs, representatives, successors, and assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon any successor of WesBanco by merger or sale of all or substantially all of WesBanco’s assets or stock or by other business combination. This Consulting Agreement cannot be altered or otherwise amended except pursuant to an instrument in writing signed by each of the parties hereto.

7

14.        GOVERNING LAW AND ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Consulting Agreement shall be construed and governed in accordance with the laws of the State of West Virginia, contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the services contemplated herein, and supersedes all previous commitments and contracts in writing between the parties hereto, except with respect to the SERP Agreement, the Transition Agreement and any benefit plans in which Consultant is a participant.
