(Check appropriate box.) /X/ (a) The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense; /X/ (b) The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on Form 10-K, 20-F, 11-K or Form N-SAR, or portion thereof will be filed on or before the 15th calendar day following the prescribed due date; or the subject quarterly report or transition report on Form 10-Q, or portion thereof will be filed on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date; and / / (c) The accountant's statement or other exhibit required by Rule 12b-25(c) has been attached if applicable.

NARRATIVE State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K, 11-K, 20-F, 10-Q, N-SAR or the transition report portion thereof could not be filed within the prescribed time period. (Attach extra sheets if needed.) The Company's previous chief financial officer resigned recently to take a job outside the banking industry. The vice president/controller of the Company's subsidiary, Century National Bank ("Bank"), is on an extended overseas vacation which had been planned for several months. A regulatory examination of the Bank commenced on July 13, 1998, and has consumed significant time and resources from the same departments required to prepare the Form 10-Q. The Company does not have the in-house capability to convert the Form 10-Q into EDGAR filing format, which requires two business days to be done by an outside vendor. The combination of all these factors could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense. 2 PART IV.

CONTACT: JOSEPH S. BRACEWELL, CHAIRMAN 202-496-4040 F. KATHRYN ROBERTS, SECRETARY 202-496-4039 CENTURY BANCSHARES, INC. REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 1998 EARNINGS Washington, D.C., July 20, 1998, CENTURY BANCSHARES, INC. (NASDAQ SmallCap Market: CTRY) announced today net earnings of $170 thousand for the second quarter of 1998, or $0.07 per basic common share ($0.07 diluted), a 44% increase, compared with net earnings of $118 thousand for the second quarter of 1997, or $0.09 per basic common share ($0.08 diluted). Net earnings for the first six months of 1998 were $301 thousand, or $0.13 per basic common share ($0.12 diluted), compared with net earnings of $288 thousand, or $0.23 per common share ($0.20 diluted) for the same period in 1997. Although net income increased, earnings per share declined because of the additional shares outstanding after the company's 1997 stock offering. Net interest income for the second quarter of 1998 increased 31%, to $1.7 million, compared with $1.3 million for the second quarter of 1997. This increase was the result of continued asset growth in 1998, as average-earning assets increased to $132 million for the second quarter of 1998 from $98.8 million in average-earning assets in the prior year's period. The provision for loan losses totaled $190 thousand for the second quarter of 1998, an increase of $139 thousand over 1997's second quarter. The increase over last year's second quarter was the result of the 36% increase in the loans outstanding during the last twelve months, as well as upward historical charge-off trends. --more-- 4 Century National Bank page 2 Noninterest income totaled $287 thousand for the second quarter of 1998, a $46 thousand increase compared with the $241 thousand for 1997. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in merchant card income, as well as $30 thousand in nonrecurring gain from sale of investment securities and liquidation other real estate owned. Noninterest expense totaled $1.5 million for the second quarter of 1998, an increase of $215 thousand when compared with the second quarter of 1997. This increase was primarily the result of increases in data processing expense totaling $51 thousand, occupancy-related expenses of $49 thousand and amortization of deposit premium of $38 thousand. These increases relate to the opening of two new retail banking branches over the past twelve months. "Century completed the second quarter of 1998 with continued growth in its loan portfolio, which increased 36% over the last twelve months and surpassed the $100 million mark for the first time in the company's history. Operating results have continued to improve over the past four quarters as our branch expansion into the suburban Maryland and Virginia markets has generated significant loan and deposit growth," said Joseph S. Bracewell, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Century Bancshares, Inc. Total assets at June 30, 1998 were $138 million, an increase of $27 million, or 24.3%, compared with total assets of $111 million a year earlier. Total loans increased to $101.2 million, an increase of $26.9 million, or 36.2%, compared with total loans of $74.3 million at June 30, 1997. Deposits increased $20.4 million, to $115.1 million, a 21.6% increase over the prior year. Total stockholders' equity was $14 million, or 10.1% of total assets, up from 6.4% of total assets at June 30, 1997. The improvements in these areas were primarily the result of two new branches and strong internal growth in the loan and deposit portfolios, combined with $6.3 million in net proceeds from the common stock offering in 1997. --more-- 5 Century National Bank page 3 Non-performing assets decreased to $958 thousand at June 30, 1998, or 0.7% of total assets, compared with $1.2 million, or 0.9% of assets at March 31, 1998. At June 30, 1998, Century's reserve to total loans ratio stood at 1.0%, with a reserve to non-performing loans (coverage) ratio of 105%.
