DEAR FELLOW SHAREHOLDER CSB Bancorp, Inc. continues to deliver solid financial performance in spite of turmoil in the national and global financial markets. With a very strong capital position, substantial liquidity, and very high asset quality, we are committed to safety and soundness while meeting the financial needs of the communities we serve and delivering a fair return to our shareholders. CSB’s net earnings totaled $890 thousand in the third quarter, or $0.37 per share. For the nine months ended September 30, net income of $2.77 million is ahead of the prior year by $136 thousand, or $0.07 per share. The Company has no direct exposure to the types of problematic loans and investments that have created the current crisis in the national and global financial markets. Net loan chargeoffs during the first nine months of the year have been very low and nonperforming asset levels are also well below our historical norms. As always, we remain vigilant for any signs of deterioration in the asset quality of our loan and investment portfolios. We have made excellent progress in planning for CSB’s acquisition of Indian Village Bancorp and its wholly owned subsidiary Indian Village Community Bank. We anticipate finalizing the transaction on Friday, October 31, 2008. The following day, banking centers in Gnadenhutten, New Philadelphia and North Canton will open for business as Commercial & Savings Bank locations. These three new markets will provide future growth opportunities for CSB beyond our current and newly acquired deposits and loans in Tuscarawas and Stark counties. Our view of the general economy is that recessionary conditions will likely remain for the balance of 2008 and most or all of 2009. While CSB’s markets are not immune to economic slowdown, we continue to provide the communities we serve with liquidity needed to sustain economic activity and growth. In return, our local economy provides the Company with a diversified customer base that, coupled with CSB’s broad range of financial services, affords some degree of earnings protection during economic downturns. The national and global financial crisis will eventually lead to significant changes in the banking industry. Over the next few years, government officials will reshape the regulatory landscape and a number of weaker financial institutions will become unable to sustain their present form. Difficult economic and regulatory environments present challenges for any organization, including community banks. However, CSB’s financial position provides strength for periods such as these, and in fact, affords the means to consider further opportunities for enhancing shareholder value. CSB’s board and management will continue to evaluate such opportunities from the disciplined perspective of safe and sound banking practices. On behalf of the board of directors, we enclose the third quarter dividend of $0.18 per share and thank you for being a shareholder of CSB Bancorp, Inc. Sincerely, EDDIE L. STEINER            JOHN R. WALTMAN President and CEO            Chairman CSB Bancorp, Inc. CSB Bancorp, Inc.
