Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

American National Bankshares Inc. (the “Company”) held a special meeting of shareholders on June 14, 2011.  There were 5,889,194 shares of the Company's common stock entitled to vote at the special meeting, of which 4,002,068 shares were represented by proxy (no shares were voted in person).At the special meeting, the Company's shareholders approved the issuance of up to approximately 1,750,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to the shareholders of common stock of MidCarolina Financial Corporation (“MidCarolina”) in accordance with the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, dated December 15, 2010, between the Company and MidCarolina, and a related Plan of Merger.

The Company’s independent inspector of elections reported the vote of the shareholders as follows:

Votes For	Votes Against	Abstentions	Broker Non-Votes

In connection with the special meeting, the Company also solicited proxies with respect to a proposal to adjourn the special meeting, if necessary, for the purpose of soliciting additional proxies. The adjournment proposal, which was unnecessary in light of the approval by the Company’s shareholders of the issuance of the Company’s common stock to shareholders of MidCarolina’s common stock, was not submitted to the Company’s shareholders for approval at the special meeting.
