Item 5.02    DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS;
             APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF
             CERTAIN OFFICERS.

   (b)(c)    On November 28, 2007, registrant announced the appointment of
             Randal J. Rabe as the Company's Chief Financial Officer
             (principal financial officer), effective as of December 1, 2007.
             Mr. Rabe also serves as an Executive Vice President of the Company.
             Mr. Rabe replaces Dale L. Chadderdon, who, effective as of
             December 1, 2007, has become a Senior Vice President and assumed
             other responsibilities within the Company.  Mr. Rabe will continue
             to operate under his existing employment agreement with the Company
             through December 31, 2007, at which time it is anticipated a new
             agreement will be entered into.

             Mr. Rabe's five-year business experience is as follows:

             Randal J. Rabe, age 48; Chief Financial Officer (since December
             2007) and Executive Vice President (since 2003) of the Company;
             President (2003 - December 2007) & Chief Executive Officer
             (2005 -December 2007) and Director (since 2003) of United Bank
             & Trust; Group Controller for LifeStyle Furnishings International,
             Ltd, High Point, N.C. (1998-2003).

             Mr. Rabe is indebted to one of the Company's subsidiary banks
             (the "Bank") which has made loans to him in the ordinary course of
             business. Such loans were outstanding during 2006 and are currently
             outstanding.  All such loans and commitments were made by the Bank
             on substantially the same terms, including interest rates,
             collateral and repayment terms, as those prevailing at the time for
             comparable transactions with other persons not related to the Bank,
             and did not involve more than the normal risk of collectibility or
             present other unfavorable features.
