2008 4Q and Year End Earnings

Michael G. Livingston, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated “The bank stayed the course of traditional banking in a year that was a difficult environment for financial institutions.  After taking the 3rd quarter charge on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac investments, the bank rebounded with a profitable fourth quarter.  The year end revealed loan growth, deposit growth, asset growth and a profit.”  Mr. Livingston added “The bank is actively lending and because we are well capitalized we did not have a need to apply for TARP funds.”

Glen Burnie Bancorp declared four regular dividends and one bonus dividend in 2008, totaling forty five cents (0.45) per common share.

The Bank of Glen BurnieÒ has been awarded the 5-Star Superior Rating from BAUER FINANCIAL Reports, Inc., the nation’s leading independent bank research firm, for 32 consecutive quarters.  This distinction denotes the highest level of strength, safety and performance attainable.  The 5-Star Superior Rating is based on factors such as capitalization, liquidity, loan delinquency rate and historical performance.

Glen Burnie Bancorp, parent company to The Bank of Glen BurnieÒ, currently maintains consolidated assets totaling more than $330 million.  Founded in 1949, The Bank of Glen BurnieÒ is a community bank with eight branch offices serving Anne Arundel County.  www.thebankofglenburnie.com
