Exhibit 99.1

			November 8, 2016
			We are pleased to report net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. Consolidated net income for the three months ended September 30, 2016 was $2.3 million, or $0.51 per share, compared to $2.1 million, or $0.45 per share, for the same period in 2015, and $6.2 million, or $1.38 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, compared to $6 million, or $1.33 per share, for the same period in 2015. We are also pleased to report that during the past twelve months ended September 30, 2016 total assets increased $52.3 million, or 8.4%, to $672.6 million; loans increased $27.6 million, or 5.45% to $533.2 million; deposits increased $28.3 million, or 5.20%, to $572.2 million; and total shareholders’ equity increased 5.6% to $56.8 million compared to September 30, 2015. Key performance ratios for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 include a Return on Average Assets of 1.28% and a Return on Average Equity of 14.83%. Both ratios place us in the upper percentiles in comparison to peer banks. We are pleased with our financial performance to date, especially with our pace of balance sheet growth, which was an area of emphasis for this year. We recently learned of big news in the Northern New England Banking scene. It was announced that the largest bank domiciled in Vermont will be acquired by an $8 billion bank domiciled in upstate New York. This will reduce the number of Vermont based banks to eleven from approximately thirty five in the 1980’s. In the near term, we view these sort of out of area consolidations to be generally positive for us as we have opportunities to acquire customers reluctant to depend on a large, out of area bank. Long term, we fear further consolidation may		reduce access to banking services in the rural markets we serve. We are committed to providing personalized deposit and loan services within our market area, while at the same time enhancing our Digital Banking capabilities. Our first snowfall happened in mid-October when we awoke to fresh snow on some of our mountain peaks, with accumulations of as much as 9 inches in some areas. While seemingly early, this bodes well for the nearing winter tourism season. Fortunately, the preceding summer and fall tourism seasons were equally as good as the winter was bad. We are hoping to string two solid tourism seasons together to further improve our area’s economy, which is generally pretty good. In some areas, businesses are unable to attract sufficient workers to be open all of the hours they would like to be, whether travel and tourism or manufacturing. This has to eventually translate into wage price pressure and modest inflation, certainly enough to cause the Federal Reserve to increase interest rates, which would be beneficial to Union Bank. Enclosed please find your check or advice of deposit of the quarterly dividend of $.28 per share declared on October 19, 2016, payable to shareholders of record as of October 29, 2016. As a reminder, we would be pleased to help you set up automatic deposit of your dividend either to a Union Bank account or a financial institution of your choice. Please contact Assistant Secretary Kristy Adams Alfieri for assistance at 802.888.0982.
