NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. GENERAL

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of United Security Bancshares, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”). All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.

The interim financial statements are unaudited but, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations for such periods presented. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009. While certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), management believes that the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. In preparing the financial statements, management evaluated subsequent events through November 9, 2009, the date on which the financial statements were issued.

2. NET INCOME PER SHARE

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average shares during the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008. Diluted net income per share for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 are computed based on the weighted average shares outstanding during the period plus the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options. There were no outstanding options during the periods ended September 30, 2009 or 2008, and therefore, basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding are the same.

The following table represents the basic and diluted net income per share calculations for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 (dollars in thousands, except per share data):

	Net Income		Weighted Average Shares Outstanding	Net Income Per Share
For the Three Months Ended:
September 30, 2009	$	1,027	6,017,650	$	0.17
September 30, 2008	$	1,402	6,031,632	$	0.23
For the Nine Months Ended:
September 30, 2009	$	5,168	6,017,792	$	0.86
September 30, 2008	$	4,786	6,045,526	$	0.79

3. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Comprehensive income consists of net income, the change in the unrealized gains or losses on the Company’s available-for-sale securities portfolio arising during the period and the change in the effective portion of cash flow hedges marked to market. In the calculation of comprehensive income, certain reclassification adjustments are made to avoid double counting items that are displayed as part of net income for a period that also had been displayed as part of other comprehensive income in that period or earlier periods.

4. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The Hierarchy of GAAP

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) established the FASB Accounting Standards Codification^TM (the “Codification” or “ASC”) as the single source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP. The Codification supersedes existing nongrandfathered, non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. The Codification did not change GAAP but rather organized it into a hierarchy where all guidance within the Codification carries an equal level of authority. The Codification became effective on July 1, 2009. The Codification did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

Fair Value Measurements

On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted ASC 820 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 applies to reported balances that are required or permitted to be measured at fair value under existing accounting pronouncements; accordingly, ASC 820 does not require any new fair value measurements of reported balances. On February 12, 2008, the FASB deferred the effective date of ASC 820 for certain nonfinancial assets and liabilities to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. All other provisions of ASC 820 are effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years.

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 at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Company uses various methods, including market, income and cost approaches. Based on these approaches, the Company often utilizes certain assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and/or the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated or generally unobservable inputs. The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Based on the observability of the inputs used in the valuation techniques, the Company is required to provide the following information according to the fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

• Level 1 — Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in active exchange markets, such as the New York Stock Exchange. Level 1 also includes equity securities in banks that are publicly traded. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities.

• Level 2 — Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in less active dealer or broker markets. Valuations are obtained from third party pricing services for identical or similar assets or liabilities.

• Level 3 — Valuations for assets and liabilities that are derived from other valuation methodologies, including option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques, and not based on market exchange, dealer or broker traded transactions. Level 3 valuations incorporate certain assumptions and projections in determining the fair value assigned to such assets or liabilities.

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying statements of financial condition, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.

Available-for-Sale Securities

Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities would include highly liquid government bonds, mortgage products and exchange traded equities. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flows. Level 2 securities include U.S. agency securities, mortgage-backed agency securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions and certain corporate, asset backed and other securities. In certain cases where Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not

9

available, securities are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy. Currently, all of the Company’s available-for-sale securities are considered to be Level 2 securities, except for $190,278 in equity securities that are considered to be Level 1 securities.

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying statements of financial condition, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.

Impaired Loans

Loan impairment is reported when full payment under the loan terms is not expected. Impaired loans are carried at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate or the fair value of collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. A portion of the allowance for loan losses is allocated to impaired loans if the value of such loans is deemed to be less than the unpaid balance. If these allocations cause the allowance for loan losses to require increase, such increase is reported as a component of the provision for loan losses. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes that the uncollectibility of a loan is confirmed. Loans, net of specific allowances, subject to this evaluation amounted to $16,614,563 as of September 30, 2009. This valuation would be considered Level 3, consisting of appraisals of underlying collateral and discounted cash flow analysis.

ASC 820 requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized on the face of the statements of financial condition, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. The assumptions used in the estimation of the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments are detailed below. Where quoted prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using discounted cash flows and other valuation techniques. The use of discounted cash flows can be significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. The following disclosures should not be considered a surrogate of the liquidation value of the Company, but rather represent a good-faith estimate of the increase or decrease in value of financial instruments held by the Company since purchase, origination or issuance.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value of its financial instruments:

Cash, due from banks and federal funds sold: The carrying amount of cash, due from banks and federal funds sold approximates fair value.

Federal Home Loan Bank: The carrying amount of Federal Home Loan Bank stock approximates fair value.

Securities: Fair values of securities are based on available quoted market prices. The carrying amount of equity securities with no readily determined fair value approximates fair value.

Accrued interest: The carrying amount of accrued interest approximates fair value.

Loans, net: For variable-rate loans, fair values are based on carrying values. Fixed-rate commercial loans, other installment loans and certain real estate mortgage loans were valued using discounted cash flows. The discount rate used to determine the present value of these loans was based on interest rates currently being charged by the Company on comparable loans as to credit risk and term.

Derivative instruments: Fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments are based on values obtained from counterparties or other quotations received from third parties. The Company’s loan commitments are negotiated at current market rates and are relatively short-term in nature. As a matter of policy, the Company generally makes commitments for fixed-rate loans for relatively short periods of time. Because of this policy and the absence of any known credit exposure, the estimated value of the Company’s loan commitments is nominal.

Demand and savings deposits: The fair values of demand deposits are equal to the carrying value of such deposits. Demand deposits include non-interest bearing demand deposits, savings accounts, NOW accounts and money market demand accounts.

Time deposits: The fair value of relatively short-term time deposits is equal to their carrying values. Discounted cash flows have been used to value long-term time deposits. The discount rate used is based on interest rates currently being offered by the Company on comparable deposits as to amount and term.

10

Short-term borrowings: These borrowings may consist of federal funds purchased, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, floating rate borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank and the U.S. Treasury Tax and Loan account. Due to the short-term nature of these borrowings, fair values approximate carrying values.

Long-term debt: The fair value of this debt is estimated using discounted cash flows based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rate for similar types of borrowing arrangements as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008.

Off-balance sheet instruments: The carrying amount of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit approximates fair value. The carrying amount of the off-balance sheet financial instruments is based on fees currently charged to enter into such agreements.

Other Accounting Standards Recently Adopted

The following is a list of other accounting standards recently adopted that did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Business Combinations

In December 2007, the FASB established standards for how an acquirer in a business combination recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree; recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase; and discloses information to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. These standards became effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, to be applied prospectively. The adoption of these standards did not impact the Company’s financial statements.

Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements

In December 2007, the FASB amended accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. The amendment clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be clearly reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. Additionally, it requires that the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the controlling interests be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statements of income. This provision became effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008, with earlier application prohibited. Prospective application is required, except for the presentation and disclosure requirements, which must be applied retrospectively. The adoption of these standards did not impact the Company’s financial statements.

Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

In March 2008, the FASB required expanded disclosures about an entity’s derivative instruments and hedging activities, but did not change the scope or accounting. This standard requires enhanced disclosures about how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for and its related interpretations and how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. To meet those objectives, this standard requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures in a tabular format about fair value amounts of and gains and losses on derivative instruments, including specific disclosures regarding the location and amounts of derivative instruments in the financial statements, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. This standard also clarifies that derivative instruments are subject to concentration of credit-risk disclosures. The provisions of this standard became effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, with earlier application permitted. The adoption of this standard did not impact the Company’s financial statements.

Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contract

In May 2008, the FASB issued an interpretation stating that diversity exists in practice in accounting for financial guarantee insurance contracts by insurance enterprises. This results in inconsistencies in the recognition and measurement of claim liabilities. This standard requires that an insurance enterprise recognize a claim liability prior to an event of default (insured event) when there is evidence that credit deterioration has occurred in an insured financial obligation and requires expanded disclosures about financial guarantee insurance contracts. The accounting and disclosure requirements became effective as of the beginning of the Company’s 2009 fiscal year. The adoption of this standard did not impact the Company’s financial statements.

Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly

In April 2009, the FASB issued new accounting guidance relating to determining fair values when there is no active market or where the price inputs being used represent distressed sales. This guidance reaffirms the objective of fair value measurement – to reflect how much an asset would be sold for in an orderly transaction (as opposed to a distressed or forced transaction) at the date of the financial statements under current market conditions. Specifically, this guidance reaffirms the need to use judgment to ascertain whether a formerly active market has become inactive and in determining fair values when markets have become inactive.

Fair Value Measurements and Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments

In April 2009, the FASB issued new accounting guidance relating to fair value disclosures for any financial instruments that are not currently reflected on the balance sheet of companies at fair value. Prior to this guidance, fair values for these assets and liabilities were only disclosed once a year. These disclosures are required on a quarterly basis, providing qualitative and quantitative information about fair value estimates for all those financial instruments not measured on the balance sheet at fair value.

Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments

In April 2009, the FASB issued new accounting guidance relating to other-than-temporary impairments that is intended to bring greater consistency to the timing of impairment recognition and provide greater clarity to investors about the credit and noncredit components of impaired debt securities that are not expected to be sold. The measure of impairment in comprehensive income remains fair value. This guidance also requires increased and more timely disclosures regarding expected cash flows, credit losses and an aging of securities with unrealized losses.

This guidance became effective for interim and annual periods ended after June 15, 2009, and did not have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company.

Subsequent Events

In May 2009, the FASB issued updated general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. The guidance became effective for interim and annual periods ended after June 15, 2009. The Company has complied with the requirements.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets

In June 2009, the FASB issued an amended standard to improve the reporting for the transfer of financial assets resulting from (1) practices that have developed that are not consistent with the original intent and key requirements of that standard and (2) concerns of financial statement users that many of the financial assets (and related obligations) that have been derecognized should continue to be reported in the financial statements of transferors. This amended standard must be applied as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Earlier application is prohibited. The Company will review the requirements of this standard and comply with its requirements. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities

In June 2009, the FASB issued an amendment regarding certain requirements to improve financial reporting by enterprises involved with variable interest entities and to provide more relevant and reliable information to users of financial statements. This amendment is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Earlier application is prohibited. The Company will review the requirements of this amendment and comply with its requirements. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this amendment will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The scheduled maturities of investment securities at September 30, 2009 are presented in the following table:

	Available-for-Sale				Held-to-Maturity
	Amortized Cost		Estimated Fair Value		Amortized Cost		Estimated Fair Value

Total	$	185,882	$	192,852	$	1,250	$	1,250

For purposes of the maturity table, mortgage-backed securities, which are not due at a single maturity date, have been allocated over maturity groupings based on the weighted-average contractual maturities of underlying collateral. The mortgage-backed securities generally mature earlier than their weighted-average contractual maturities because of principal prepayments.

The following table reflects the Company’s investments’ gross unrealized losses and market value, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008. The Company does not believe that any individual unrealized loss represents an other-than-temporary impairment. The Company does not intend to sell these securities, has assessed the likelihood that it will be required to sell these securities before recovery of its amortized cost basis as not likely and does expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of these securities based on comparison of the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the securities with the amortized cost basis of the securities. Therefore, the Company has not recognized any other-than-temporary impairments.

6. SEGMENT REPORTING

Under ASC 280 Segment Reporting, certain information is disclosed for the two reportable operating segments of the Company. The reportable segments were determined using the internal management reporting system. They are composed of the Company’s and First United Security Bank’s (the “Bank”) significant subsidiaries. The accounting policies for each segment are the same as those described in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2008. The segment results include certain overhead allocations and intercompany transactions that were recorded at current market prices. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated to determine the consolidated balances. The results for the two reportable segments of the Company are included in the following table:

7. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers and in connection with its interest rate risk management, investing and trading activities. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit.

The Bank’s principal objective in holding derivative financial instruments is asset-liability management. The operations of the Bank are subject to a risk of interest rate fluctuations to the extent that there is a difference between the amount of the Bank’s interest earning assets and the amount of interest bearing liabilities that mature or reprice in specified periods. The principal objective of the Bank’s asset-liability management activities is to provide maximum levels of net interest income while maintaining acceptable levels of interest rate and liquidity risk and facilitating the funding needs of the Bank. To achieve that objective, the Bank uses a combination of derivative financial instruments, including interest rate swaps. During the period ended September 30, 2009, no interest rate swaps were used.

8. GUARANTEES, COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party for commitments to make loans and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making these commitments as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. For interest rate swap transactions and commitments to purchase or sell securities for forward delivery, the contract or notional amounts do not represent exposure to credit loss. The Bank controls the credit risk of these derivative instruments through credit approvals, limits and monitoring procedures. Certain derivative contracts have credit risk for the carrying value plus the amount to replace such contracts in the event of counterparty default. All of the Bank’s financial instruments are held for risk management and not for trading purposes. During the period ended September 30, 2009, there were no credit losses associated with derivative contracts.

In the normal course of business, there are outstanding commitments and contingent liabilities, such as commitments to extend credit, letters of credit and others, that are not included in the consolidated financial statements. The financial instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of amounts recognized in the financial statements. A summary of these commitments and contingent liabilities is presented below:

	September 30, 2009		December 31, 2008
	(Dollars in Thousands)
Standby Letters of Credit	$	1,442	$	1,952
Commitments to Extend Credit	$	54,319	$	54,330

Standby letters of credit are contingent commitments issued by the Bank generally to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The Bank has recourse against the customer for any amount that it is required to pay to a third party under a standby letter of credit. Revenues are recognized over the lives of the standby letters of credit. At September 30, 2009, the potential amount of future payments that the Bank could be required to make under its standby letters of credit was $1.4 million, representing the Bank’s total credit risk.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. 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 Bank evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment and income-producing commercial properties.

Commitments to purchase securities for delayed delivery require the Bank to purchase a specified security at a specified price for delivery on a specified date. Similarly, commitments to sell securities for delayed delivery require the Bank to sell a specified security at a specified price for delivery on a specified date. Market risk arises from potential movements in security values and interest rates between the commitment and delivery dates. At September 30, 2009, there were no outstanding commitments to purchase and sell securities for delayed delivery.

Litigation

On September 27, 2007, Malcomb Graves Automotive, LLC, Malcomb Graves and Tina Graves (collectively, “Graves”) filed a lawsuit in the Circuit Court of Shelby County, Alabama against the Company, the Bank, Acceptance Loan Company, Inc., a subsidiary of the Bank (“ALC”), and their respective directors and officers seeking an unspecified amount of compensatory and punitive damages. A former employee of ALC, Corey Mitchell, has been named as a co-defendant. The complaint alleges that the defendants committed fraud in allegedly misrepresenting to Graves the amounts Graves owed on certain loans and failing to credit Graves properly for certain loans. The defendants deny the allegations and intend to vigorously defend themselves in this action. The trial court denied the defendants’ motion to compel arbitration, and the defendants elected to appeal the trial court’s ruling with the Alabama Supreme Court. During the appeal, Malcomb Graves filed for bankruptcy, staying this lawsuit in its entirety. The defendants have not yet responded to the complaint, and no discovery has been exchanged between the parties. For these reasons, it is too early to assess the likelihood of a resolution of this matter or whether this matter will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

On April 1, 2008, E. Mark Ezell, Mark Ezell Family, LLC, Nena M. Morris, Mark Ezell Investment & Property Management, LLC, Patricia W. Ezell, J.W. Ezell, Ranier W. Ezell and Bradley H. Ezell, all shareholders of the Company (collectively, the “Shareholder Plaintiffs”), filed a lawsuit in the Circuit Court of Choctaw County, Alabama against the Company, ALC, Robert Steen and Mauldin & Jenkins, LLC seeking an unspecified amount of compensatory and punitive damages. On October 31, 2008, the Shareholder Plaintiffs amended the complaint to add Terry Phillips, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, as a co-defendant. The complaint, as amended, seeks both direct and derivative relief and alleges that the defendants committed fraud and various other breaches relating to loans made by ALC, resulting in damage to both the Shareholder Plaintiffs and the Company. The Company and ALC deny the allegations focused on them and intend to vigorously defend themselves in this action. On January 16, 2009, the trial court granted in part a motion filed by the Company and ALC seeking to dismiss certain of the Shareholder Plaintiffs’ claims, including the derivative and fraud claims, and ordered the Shareholder Plaintiffs to re-plead their remaining claims. The trial court also granted a motion filed by the Company and ALC seeking to have the lawsuit transferred to the Circuit Court of Clarke County, which transfer occurred on January 19, 2009. The Shareholder Plaintiffs have not yet amended their complaint as ordered, and, as such, no discovery has been exchanged between the parties. For these reasons, it is too early to assess the likelihood of a resolution of this matter or whether this matter will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

On June 5, 2009, the Company, the Bank and ALC (the Company, the Bank and ALC collectively referred to herein as the “USB Companies”) finalized settlement agreements and releases (the “Settlement Agreements”) with defendants McKean & Associates, P.A., Ernst & Young LLP and Mauldin & Jenkins, LLC (collectively, the “Defendants”) to resolve a lawsuit initially filed in the Circuit Court of Clarke County, Alabama on April 29, 2008 (the “McKean Lawsuit”). As reported by the Company in prior filings, the McKean Lawsuit alleged that the Defendants breached their contractual obligations to the USB Companies, the Defendants breached their duty to exercise reasonable care in performing their audits on behalf of the USB Companies and the Defendants committed certain other torts in connection with their audits of the USB Companies, all relating to certain loan irregularities within ALC discovered during the second quarter of 2007. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreements, the USB Companies, with the consent and approval of the Company’s Board of Directors, agreed to dismiss, with prejudice, each of the Defendants from the McKean Lawsuit and to release the Defendants from all claims asserted or that may have been asserted against the Defendants in the Lawsuit. In exchange, the Defendants paid an aggregate sum of $4.5 million to the USB Companies, with the USB Companies maintaining responsibility for their own attorneys’ fees and costs arising from the McKean Lawsuit, which resulted in net proceeds to the USB Companies in the amount of $2.7 million. The Settlement Agreements concluded the McKean Lawsuit. The USB Companies entered into the Settlement Agreements to avoid the expense and uncertainty of further litigation of the claims alleged in the McKean Lawsuit.

As previously disclosed, the Bank was informed by letter dated September 30, 2008 that the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) had authorized the filing of a complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Alabama (the “Court”) against the Bank alleging certain violations of the Fair Housing Act and the Equal Credit Opportunity Act. The alleged violations related to lending practices affecting African-American borrowers. Although the Company and the Bank have at all times asserted that the Bank’s lending practices have complied with all applicable laws, the Bank has cooperated fully and engaged in active discussions with the DOJ in an effort to resolve this matter. On September 30, 2009, the DOJ filed a civil complaint and an Agreed Order for Resolution (the “Consent Order”) with the Court, effectively resolving this matter. Pursuant to the Consent Order, the Bank agreed, among other things, to revise the standardization of its mortgage loan pricing policies, compensate certain

19

borrowers, adopt marketing, consumer education and outreach initiatives to promote its products and services in African-American communities, open or acquire a branch in an African-American neighborhood in west central Alabama and provide subsidies totaling $500,000 to support new loans for homes and small businesses in these areas. The Consent Order remains subject to approval by the Court.

The Company and its subsidiaries also are parties to other litigation, and the Company intends to vigorously defend itself in all such litigation. In the opinion of the Company, based on review and consultation with legal counsel, the outcome of such other litigation should not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and financial information are presented to aid in an understanding of the current financial position and results of operations of United Security Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company”). The Company is the parent holding company of First United Security Bank (the “Bank”). The Bank operates a finance company, Acceptance Loan Company, Inc. (“ALC”). The Company has no operations of any consequence other than the ownership of its subsidiaries.

The accounting principles and reporting policies of the Company, and the methods of applying these principles, conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and with general practices within the financial services industry. Critical accounting policies relate to securities, loans, allowance for loan losses, derivatives and hedging. A description of these policies, which significantly affect the determination of financial position, results of operations and cash flows, is set forth in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

The emphasis of this discussion is a comparison of assets, liabilities and shareholders’ equity as of September 30, 2009 to year-end 2008, while comparing income and expense for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008.

All yields and ratios presented and discussed herein are based on the accrual basis and not on the tax-equivalent basis, unless otherwise indicated.

This information should be read in conjunction with the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this report and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations appearing in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

COMPARING THE THREE- AND NINE-MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2009 TO THE THREE- AND NINE-MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2008

Net income during the third quarter of 2009 was $1.0 million, compared to net income of $1.4 million for the same period of 2008, resulting in a decrease of basic net income per share from $0.23 to $0.17. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, net income increased to $5.2 million, compared to $4.8 million in 2008, resulting in an increase of basic net income per share from $0.79 to $0.86. Annualized return on assets was 1.01% for the first nine months of 2009, compared to 0.96% for the same period during 2008. Average return on shareholders’ equity increased to 8.64% for the first nine months of 2009 from 8.10% during the first nine months of 2008.

Interest income for the 2009 third quarter decreased $1.0 million, or 8.0%, compared to the third quarter of 2008. The decrease in interest income was primarily due to a decrease in interest earned on loans. This decrease is due to an overall decrease in the average yield and volume of loans outstanding. For the 2009 nine-month period, interest income decreased $3.7 million, or 9.3%, over the same period last year. This decrease in interest income was primarily due to a decrease in interest earned on loans resulting from an overall decrease in the average yield and a decrease in the volume of loans outstanding.

Interest expense for the 2009 third quarter decreased $698,000, or 17.5%, compared to the third quarter of 2008. Interest expense decreased $2.7 million, or 21.0%, to $10.3 million for the first nine months of 2009, compared to $13.0 million for the first nine months of 2008. These decreases, during the 2009 third quarter and year-to-date, were the result of decreased rates paid on interest bearing deposits, offset by the increased volume of interest bearing deposits, primarily certificates of deposit, and decreased rates paid on borrowed funds, offset by an increase in borrowed funds.

20

Net interest income decreased $332,000, or 3.8%, for the third quarter of 2009 and decreased $950,000, or 3.6%, for the first nine months of 2009, compared to the same periods in 2008. Asset yields have fallen faster than funding rates, as prime adjustable loans have priced down much faster than certificates of deposit. As loan yields have somewhat stabilized, the yield on interest earning assets continues to decline due to the shift from loans to investment securities, as loan growth continues to be depressed. The Company’s cost of funds continues to decline as longer-term certificates of deposit reprice. However, even though net interest margin improved in the second quarter of 2009 from the first quarter of 2009, it declined during the third quarter and nine-month periods of 2009, compared to the same periods in 2008.

The provision for loan losses was $1.5 million, or 1.5% annualized of average loans, in the third quarter of 2009, compared to $1.9 million, or 1.9% annualized of average loans, in the third quarter of 2008. The provision for loan losses decreased to $4.9 million year-to-date 2009, or 1.6% annualized of average loans, compared to $5.5 million, or 1.7% annualized of average loans, for the same period in 2008. Charge-offs exceeded recoveries by $5.4 million for the 2009 nine-month period, a decrease of approximately $689,000 over the same period in the prior year. See “CREDIT QUALITY.”

Total non-interest income decreased $334,000, or 21.7%, for the third quarter of 2009, and increased $1.8 million, or 40.2%, for the first nine months of 2009. Service charges and fees on deposit accounts decreased $84,000 during the 2009 third quarter and $298,000 year-to-date 2009, compared to the same periods in 2008. Income on bank-owned life insurance decreased $8,000 during the 2009 third quarter and $1,000 year-to-date 2009, compared to the same periods in 2008. Commissions on credit insurance decreased $64,000 during the 2009 third quarter and increased $92,000 year-to-date. Net gains on the sale of other real estate owned amounted to $233,000 for the first nine months of 2008 and have decreased to a net loss of $338,000 year-to-date 2009. All other fees increased as a result of a settlement received in the second quarter of 2009 related to a lawsuit filed against three accounting firms, which resulted in net settlement proceeds to the Company in the amount of $2.7 million. This non-recurring income represents earnings of $0.30 per share for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2009.

Total non-interest expense increased $547,000, or 8.5%, during the 2009 third quarter and $1.1 million, or 6.0%, year-to-date 2009, compared to the same periods in 2008. Salary and employee benefits increased $262,000 when comparing third quarter 2009 to 2008, and $534,000 year-to-date 2009 compared to the same period in 2008. Health insurance costs, which are included in salary and benefits, have increased $112,000 during the 2009 third quarter and $215,000 year-to-date 2009, compared to the same periods in 2008. For the three months ended September 30, 2009, advertising expense increased $2,000, legal and professional fees decreased $275,000 and telephone and data circuit expense increased $22,000, each compared to the same period in 2008. On a year-to-date basis, advertising expense decreased $22,000, legal and professional fees decreased $143,000 and telephone and data circuit expense increased $42,000, each compared to the same period in 2008. FDIC insurance assessments have increased $392,000 during the 2009 third quarter and $688,000 year-to-date 2009, compared to the same periods in 2008.

Income tax expense for the third quarter of 2009 was $255,000, compared to $655,000 in 2008. Income tax expense for the first nine months of 2009 and 2008 was $2.2 million. Management estimates the effective tax rate for the Company to be approximately 30% of pre-tax income for the year ending December 31, 2009.

COMPARING THE SEPTEMBER 30, 2009 STATEMENTS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION TO DECEMBER 31, 2008

In comparing financial condition at December 31, 2008 to September 30, 2009, total assets increased $27.2 million to $695.2 million, while liabilities increased $23.1 million to $612.5 million. Shareholders’ equity increased $4.1 million due to net income of $5.2 million and an increase in other comprehensive income of $1.9 million during the first nine months of 2009, offset by dividends paid of $3.0 million.

Investment securities increased $9.9 million, or 5.4%, during the first nine months of 2009. Investments provide the Company with a stable form of liquidity while maximizing earnings yield. Loans, net of unearned income, decreased $2.3 million, from $408.0 million at December 31, 2008, to $405.7 million at September 30, 2009, as a result of a slowdown in the overall economy, especially in construction and real estate development, in the trade areas served by the Company. Deposits increased $14.9 million, or 3.1%, during the first nine months of 2009.

CREDIT QUALITY

At September 30, 2009, the allowance for loan losses was $8.0 million, or 2.0% of loans net of unearned income, compared to $7.9 million, or 1.9% of loans net of unearned income, at September 30, 2008, and $8.5 million, or 2.1% of loans net of unearned income, at December 31, 2008. The coverage ratio of the allowance for loan losses to non-performing assets decreased to 19.6% at September 30, 2009, compared to 22.6% at December 31, 2008, due to increases in loans on non-accrual and other real estate owned, offset by a small decrease in loans past due 90 days or more.

Activity in the allowance for loan losses is summarized as follows (dollars in thousands):

	Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2009			2008
Balance at Beginning of Period	$	8,532		$	8,535
Charge-Offs		(6,272	)		(7,577	)
Recoveries		875			1,491
Net Loans Charged-Off		(5,397	)		(6,086	)
Additions Charged to Operations		4,857			5,467
Balance at End of Period	$	7,992		$	7,916

Net charge-offs for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 were $5.4 million, or 1.8% of average loans on an annualized basis, a decrease of 0.1%, or $689,000, from the net charge-offs of $6.1 million, or 1.9% of average loans on an annualized basis, reported a year earlier. Net charge-offs at the Bank were $2.2 million as of September 30, 2009 and $1.3 million as of September 30, 2008. ALC had net charge-offs at September 30, 2009 of $3.2 million, as compared to $4.8 million at September 30, 2008. The provision for loan losses for the first nine months of 2009 was $4.9 million, compared to $5.5 million for the first nine months of 2008.

The Company maintains the allowance for loan losses at a level deemed adequate by management to absorb probable losses from loans in the portfolio. In determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, management considers numerous factors, including, but not limited to, management’s estimate of: (a) future economic conditions, (b) the financial condition and liquidity of certain loan customers and (c) collateral values of property securing certain loans. Because these factors and others involve the use of management’s estimation and judgment, the allowance for loan losses is inherently subject to adjustment at future dates. Unfavorable changes in the factors used by management to determine the adequacy of the allowance, including increased loan delinquencies and subsequent charge-offs, or the availability of new information, could require additional provisions, in excess of normal provisions, to the allowance for loan losses in future periods. There can be no assurance that loan losses in future periods will not exceed the allowance for loan losses or that additions to the allowances will not be required.

Non-performing assets were as follows (dollars in thousands):

	September 30, 2009			December 31, 2008			September 30, 2008
Loans Accounted for on a Non-Accrual Basis	$	12,551		$	10,258		$	10,442
Accruing Loans Past Due 90 Days or More		7,154			9,323			4,215
Real Estate Acquired in Settlement of Loans		21,126			18,131			17,126
Total	$	40,831		$	37,712		$	31,783
Non-Performing Assets as a Percentage of Net Loans and Other Real Estate		9.57	%		8.85	%		7.49	%

Non-performing assets as a percentage of net loans and other real estate was 9.6% at September 30, 2009, compared to 8.9% at December 31, 2008. The increase is due to a $2.3 million increase in loans on non-accrual and a $3.0 million increase in real estate acquired in settlement of loans, offset by a $2.2 million decrease in accruing loans past due 90 days or more. Other real estate acquired in settlement of loans as of September 30, 2009 consists of thirteen residential properties and twenty-seven commercial properties totaling $14.2 million at the Bank and one hundred

22

fifty-seven residential properties totaling $6.9 million at ALC. Management is making every effort to dispose of these properties in a timely manner, but the national recession and the severely depressed real estate market continue to have a negative impact on this process. In spite of the bad economy, management believes that, by closely monitoring these non-performing assets, through aggressive collection and sales efforts, they can be reduced to a more manageable level. Management reviews these loans and reports to the Board of Directors monthly. Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest are reviewed closely by management and are allowed to continue accruing only when management believes that underlying collateral values and the financial strength of the borrowers are sufficient to protect the Bank from loss. If at any time management determines there may be a loss of interest or principal, these loans will be changed to non-accrual and their asset value downgraded.

Impaired loans totaled $17.2 million, $24.4 million and $17.9 million as of September 30, 2009, December 31, 2008 and September 30, 2008, respectively. Impaired loans at September 30, 2009 consisted mainly of five commercial real estate loans and three residential development loans. Based on management’s analysis, these loans are considered impaired based on current collateral values. There was approximately $0.6 million, $1.2 million and $1.6 million in the allowance for loan losses specifically allocated to these impaired loans at September 30, 2009, September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Bank’s primary sources of funds are customer deposits, Federal Home Loan Bank advances, repayments of loan principal and interest from loans and investments. While scheduled principal repayments on loans and mortgage-backed securities are a relatively predictable source of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition, making them less predictable. The Bank manages the pricing of its deposits to maintain a desired deposit balance. In addition, the Bank invests in short-term interest-earning assets, which provide liquidity to meet lending requirements.

The Bank currently has up to $108.2 million in borrowing capacity from the Federal Home Loan Bank and $10.0 million in established federal funds lines.

The Bank is required to maintain certain levels of regulatory capital. At September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company and the Bank were in compliance with all regulatory capital requirements.

Management is not aware of any condition that currently exists that would have an adverse effect on the liquidity, capital resources or operation of the Company. However, the Company is a defendant in certain claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. See Note 8 to Item 1, “Guarantees, Commitments and Contingencies,” for a discussion of such claims and legal actions.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The primary functions of asset and liability management are to (1) assure adequate liquidity, (2) maintain an appropriate balance between interest-sensitive assets and interest-sensitive liabilities, (3) maximize the profit of the Bank and (4) reduce risks to the Bank’s capital. Liquidity management involves the ability to meet day-to-day cash flow requirements of the Bank’s customers, whether they are depositors wishing to withdraw funds or borrowers requiring funds to meet their credit needs. Without proper liquidity management, the Bank would not be able to perform the primary function of a financial intermediary and would, therefore, not be able to meet the needs of the communities that it serves. Interest rate risk management focuses on the maturity structure of assets and liabilities and their repricing characteristics during changes in market interest rates. Effective interest rate sensitivity management ensures that both assets and liabilities respond to changes in interest rates within an acceptable time frame, thereby minimizing the effect of such interest rate movements on the net interest margin.

The asset portion of the balance sheet provides liquidity primarily from two sources. These are principal payments, maturities and sales relating to loans and maturities and principal payments from the investment portfolio. Other short-term investments, such as federal funds sold, are additional sources of liquidity. Loans maturing or repricing in one year or less amounted to $183.6 million at December 31, 2008 and $166.0 million at September 30, 2009.

Investment securities that are forecast to mature or reprice over the next twelve months total $11.1 million, or 5.7% of the investment portfolio, as of September 30, 2009. For comparison, principal payments on investment securities totaled $53.2 million, or 27.4% of the investment portfolio, at September 30, 2009.

Although the majority of the securities portfolio has legal final maturities longer than 10 years, the entire portfolio consists of securities that are readily marketable and easily convertible into cash. As of September 30, 2009, the

23

bond portfolio had an expected average maturity of 3.4 years, and approximately 77.6% of the $194.1 million in bonds were expected to be repaid within 5 years. However, management does not rely solely upon the investment portfolio to generate cash flows to fund loans, capital expenditures, dividends, debt repayment and other cash requirements. Instead, these activities are funded by cash flows from operating activities and increases in deposits and short-term borrowings.

The liability portion of the balance sheet provides liquidity through interest bearing and non-interest bearing deposit accounts. Federal funds purchased, Federal Home Loan Bank advances, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and short-term and long-term borrowings are additional sources of liquidity. Liquidity management involves the continual monitoring of the sources and uses of funds to maintain an acceptable cash position. Long-term liquidity management focuses on considerations related to the total balance sheet structure.

The Bank, at September 30, 2009, had long-term debt and short-term borrowings that, on average, represented 13.4% of total liabilities and equity, compared to 13.7% at year-end 2008.

Interest rate sensitivity is a function of the repricing characteristics of the portfolio of assets and liabilities. These repricing characteristics are the time frames during which the interest bearing assets and liabilities are subject to changes in interest rates, either at replacement or maturity, during the life of the instruments. Sensitivity is measured as the difference between the volume of assets and the volume of liabilities in the current portfolio that are subject to repricing in future time periods. These differences are known as interest sensitivity gaps and are usually calculated for segments of time and on a cumulative basis.

Measuring Interest Rate Sensitivity: Gap analysis is a technique used to measure interest rate sensitivity at a particular point in time. Assets and liabilities are placed in gap intervals based on their repricing dates. Assets and liabilities for which no specific repricing dates exist are placed in gap intervals based on management’s judgment concerning their most likely repricing behaviors. Interest rate derivatives used in interest rate sensitivity management also are included in the applicable gap intervals.

A net gap for each time period is calculated by subtracting the liabilities repricing in that interval from the assets repricing. A positive gap – more assets repricing than liabilities – will benefit net interest income if rates are rising and will detract from net interest income in a falling rate environment. Conversely, a negative gap – more liabilities repricing than assets – will benefit net interest income in a declining interest rate environment and will detract from net interest income in a rising interest rate environment.

Gap analysis is the simplest representation of the Bank’s interest rate sensitivity. However, it cannot reveal the impact of factors such as administered rates, pricing strategies on consumer and business deposits, changes in balance sheet mix or the effect of various options embedded in balance sheet instruments.

On a monthly basis, the Bank simulates how changes in short- and long-term interest rates will impact future profitability as reflected by changes in the Bank’s net interest margin.

Also on a monthly basis, the Bank calculates how changes in interest rates would impact the market value of its assets and liabilities, as well as changes in long-term profitability. The process is similar to assessing short-term risk but is measured over a five-year time period, which allows for a more comprehensive assessment of longer-term repricing and cash flow imbalances that may not be captured by short-term net interest margin simulation. The results of these calculations are representative of long-term interest rate risk, both in terms of changes in the present value of the Bank’s assets and liabilities, as well as long-term changes in core profitability.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the objective that information in its reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified and pursuant to the requirements of the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met.

24

As of September 30, 2009, the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in the Company’s periodic filings with the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended September 30, 2009 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
