On August 23, 2007, the Board of Directors of United Security Bancshares, Inc. (“Bancshares”) approved an amendment to the bylaws of Bancshares to allow shares to be issued in uncertificated form. The amendment enables Bancshares to be eligible for participation in the Direct Registration System as required by NASDAQ Rule 4350(l). The Direct Registration System allows shareholders to hold shares without the issuance of physical certificates and allows shares to be transferred between a transfer agent and a broker electronically without the need to transfer physical certificates. The amendment to the bylaws became effective on August 23, 2007.

A copy of the amended and restated bylaws is attached hereto as Exhibit 3(ii) and is incorporated by reference herein.
