(a) The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Underwriter that:

(i) The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-160422) covering the registration of the Securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), including a related prospectus, which has become effective. The registration statement (including the exhibits thereto and schedules thereto, if any) as amended at the time it became effective, or, if a post-effective amendment has been filed with respect thereto, as amended by such post-effective amendment at the time of its effectiveness (including in each case the information (if any) deemed to be part of such registration statement at the time of effectiveness pursuant to Rule 430A under the Securities Act), is hereinafter referred to as the “Registration Statement.” The term “Effective Date” shall mean each date that the Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment or amendments thereto became or become effective. The term “Base Prospectus” shall mean the prospectus referred to in Section 1(a)(i) hereof contained in the Registration Statement at the Effective Date. “Preliminary Prospectus” means any preliminary prospectus supplement to the Base Prospectus used prior to the filing of the Prospectus, together with the Base Prospectus; the term “Prospectus” means the final prospectus supplement to the Base Prospectus first filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, together with the Base Prospectus. Any registration statement filed pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act is herein referred to as the “Rule 462(b) Registration Statement,” and after such filing the term “Registration Statement” shall include the Rule 462(b) Registration Statement.

Any reference in this Agreement to the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the Securities Act, as of the Effective Date or the date of such Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, as the case may be. For purposes of this Agreement, all references to the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing shall be deemed to include the copy filed with the Commission pursuant to its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system (“EDGAR”).

All references in this Agreement to financial statements and schedules and other information which is “contained,” “included” or “stated” in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus (or other references of like import) shall be deemed to mean and include all such financial statements and schedules and other information which is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, as the case may be.

Such Registration Statement, as so amended, has been declared effective by the Commission, and the Securities have been registered under the Registration Statement in compliance with the requirements for the use of Form S-3. Although the Base Prospectus may not include all the information with respect to the Securities and the offering thereof required by the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder to be included in the Prospectus, the Base Prospectus includes all such information required by the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder to be included therein as of the Effective Date. The Company has complied to the Commission’s satisfaction with all requests of the Commission for additional or supplemental information; and no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no proceeding for that purpose has been initiated or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened by the Commission. After the execution of this Agreement, the Company will file with the Commission pursuant to Rules 415 and 424(b) a final supplement to the Base Prospectus included in such Registration Statement relating to the Securities and the offering thereof, with such information as is required or permitted by the Securities Act and as has been provided to and approved by the Underwriter prior to the date hereof or, to the extent not completed at the date hereof, containing only such specific additional information and other changes (beyond that contained in the Base Prospectus and any Preliminary Prospectus) as the Company has advised the Underwriter, prior to the date hereof, will be included or made therein. If the Company has elected to rely on Rule 462(b) and the Rule 462(b) Registration Statement is not effective, (x) the Company will file a Rule 462(b) Registration Statement in compliance with, and that is effective upon filing pursuant to, Rule 462(b) and (y) the Company has given irrevocable instructions for transmission of the applicable filing fee in connection with the filing of the Rule 462(b) Registration Statement, in compliance with Rule 111 under the Securities Act, or the Commission has received payment of such filing fee.

The Company agrees that the Company will pay or cause to be paid the following, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereunder are consummated or this Agreement is terminated: (i) the fees, disbursements and expenses of the Company’s counsel and accountants in connection with the registration of the Securities under the Securities Act and all other expenses in connection with the preparation, printing and filing of the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Disclosure Package, the Prospectus and any Issuer-Represented Free Writing Prospectus, and amendments and supplements thereto, and the mailing and delivering of copies thereof to the Underwriter and dealers; (ii) the cost of printing or reproducing this Agreement, the Blue Sky memorandum and any other documents in connection with the offering, purchase, sale and delivery of the Securities; (iii) all expenses in connection with the qualification of the Securities for offering and sale under state securities laws as provided in Section 5(b) hereof, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Underwriter in connection with such qualification and in connection with the Blue Sky memorandum; (iv) the filing fees incident to securing any required review by FINRA of the terms of the sale of the Securities; (v) the costs and charges of any transfer agent, registrar or depository; (vi) the costs and expenses of the Company relating to investor presentations on any “road show” undertaken in connection with the marketing of the offering of the Securities, including, without limitation, expenses associated with the preparation or dissemination of any electronic road show, expenses associated with the production of road show slides and graphics, and travel and lodging expenses of the representatives and officers of the Company, (vii) all fees relating to the inclusion of the Securities on The Nasdaq Capital Market; and (viii) all other costs and expenses incident to the performance of its obligations hereunder which are not otherwise specifically provided for in this Section 6. It is understood, however, that except as provided in this Section 6, and in Section 8 and Section 10 hereof, the Underwriter will pay all of its own costs and expenses,

including the fees of their counsel, stock transfer taxes on resale of any of the Securities by them, the cost of any aircraft chartered in connection with the road show, and any advertising expenses connected with any offers they may make.

The obligations of the Underwriter hereunder, as to the Securities to be delivered at each Delivery Date, shall be subject, in its discretion, to the condition that all representations and warranties and other statements of the Company herein are, at and as of such Delivery Date, true and correct, the condition that the Company shall have performed all of its obligations hereunder theretofore to be performed, and the following additional conditions:

(a) The Prospectus shall have been filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) within the applicable time period prescribed for such filing by the rules and regulations under the Securities Act and in accordance with Section 5(a) hereof (or a post-effective amendment shall have been filed and declared effective in accordance with the requirements of Rule 430A); if the Company has elected to rely upon Rule 462(b), the Rule 462(b) Registration Statement shall have become effective by 10:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on the date of this Agreement; no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any part thereof shall have been issued and no proceeding for that purpose shall have been initiated or threatened by the Commission; and all requests for additional information on the part of the Commission shall have been complied with to your reasonable satisfaction; and the FINRA shall have raised no objection to the fairness and reasonableness of the underwriting terms and arrangements;

(b) On each Delivery Date, Kennedy & Baris, LLP, counsel for the Underwriter, shall have furnished to the Underwriter such written opinion or opinions, dated such Delivery Date, with respect to such matters as the Underwriter may reasonably request, and such counsel shall have received such papers and information as they may reasonably request to enable them to pass upon such matters;

(c) On Each Delivery Date, Williams Mullen, counsel for the Company, shall have furnished to the Underwriter their written opinion, dated such Delivery Date, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Underwriter, to the effect that:

(i) The Company, the Bank, MIG and STM have been duly incorporated or organized, and are validly existing as corporations or limited liability corporations, as applicable, in good standing under the laws of their respective jurisdictions of organization, with corporate power and authority to own or lease their respective properties and conduct their respective businesses as described in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus; and the Company, the Bank, MIG and STM are duly qualified to do business and are in good standing in each jurisdiction in which they own or lease property or conduct business so as to require such qualification except where the failure to so qualify would not result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(ii) The Company has an authorized capitalization as set forth under the caption “Description of Capital Stock” in the Prospectus, and all of the issued shares of capital stock of the Company have been duly and validly authorized and issued, are fully paid and nonassessable and conform to the description contained in the Prospectus; there are no preemptive rights to subscribe for or to purchase any securities of the Company under the Articles of Incorporation of the Company or under Virginia law; except as described in the Prospectus, there are no warrants or options to purchase any securities of the Company which have been granted by the Company; to such counsel’s knowledge, neither the filing of the Registration Statement nor the offering or sale of the Securities as contemplated by this Agreement gives rise to any rights for or relating to the registration of any securities of the Company; and the form of the certificates evidencing the Securities complies with all formal requirements of Virginia law;

(iii) The Registration Statement has been declared effective under the Securities Act; any required filing of the Prospectus, and any supplements thereto, pursuant to Rule 424(b) has been made in the manner and within the time period required by Rule 424(b); to the knowledge of such counsel, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no proceeding for that purpose has been instituted or threatened under the Securities Act;

(iv) The Securities have been duly authorized and, when issued and delivered against payment therefor as provided herein, will be validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable and conform to the description of the Securities contained in the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented;

(v) All outstanding shares of capital stock of the Bank, MIG and their respective subsidiaries (other than STM) and all of the limited liability company interests of STM owned by the Bank, are owned by the Company, or a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, free and clear of any perfected security interests, claims, liens or encumbrances;

(vi) To such counsel’s knowledge, there are no legal or governmental proceedings (including any Regulatory Action) pending to which the Company is a party or of which any property or assets of the Company is subject which, if determined adversely to the Company, would individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect; and, to such counsel’s knowledge, no such proceedings are threatened or contemplated by governmental authorities or threatened by others;

(vii) This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms except to the extent that its enforceability may be limited by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer, or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforceability is considered in an action at law or a suit in equity), including limitations on the availability of equitable remedies, (iii) procedural requirements of law applicable to the exercise of creditors’ rights generally, (iv) the Federal Tax Lien Act of 1966, as amended, (v) federal and state securities laws to the enforceability of the indemnification and contribution provisions) and (vi) 12 U.S.C. 1818(b)(6)(D) and similar bank regulatory powers;

(viii) The issue and sale of the Securities and the performance of this Agreement by the Company will not result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Company pursuant to, any material indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument known to such counsel to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Company is subject, nor will such action result in any violation of the provisions of the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the Company or of any statute or any order, rule or regulation known to such counsel of any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of their respective properties;

(ix) No consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any court or governmental agency or body is required for the issuance and sale of the Securities by the Company or the consummation by the Company of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except such as have been obtained under the Securities Act, such as may be required under state securities or Blue Sky laws, and under the rules of FINRA in connection with the purchase and distribution of the Securities by the Underwriter;

(x) The Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, and the Prospectus and any further amendments and supplements thereto made by the Company prior to such Delivery Date (other than the financial statements and related schedules and other financial and statistical information included therein and information furnished by or on behalf of the Underwriter for use therein, as to which such counsel need express no opinion) comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder; and

(xi) The Company has filed a listing of additional shares and all required supporting documents with respect to the Securities with the Nasdaq Stock Market Inc., and such counsel received no information stating that the Securities will not be authorized for listing, subject to official notice of issuance and evidence of satisfactory distribution.

In rendering such opinions, such counsel may rely as to matters of fact, to the extent deemed proper, on certificates of responsible officers of the Company, the Bank, MIG and STM, and public officials. On each Delivery Date, Williams Mullen shall also deliver a letter to you stating that nothing has come to their attention which leads them to believe that, as of the effective date of the Registration Statement and as of each Delivery Date, the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus or, as of its date, any further amendment or supplement thereto made by the Company prior to the Delivery Date (in each case, other than the financial statements and the related schedules and other financial and statistical information included therein, as to which such counsel need not address) contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. With respect to such statement, such counsel may state that their belief is based upon the procedures set forth therein, but is without independent check or verification.

(d) On the date of this Agreement at a time prior to the execution of this Agreement, on the effective date of any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement filed subsequent to the date of this Agreement and also at each Delivery Date, Yount, Hyde & Barbour, P.C. shall have furnished to the Underwriter a letter or letters, dated the respective dates of delivery thereof, in form and substance satisfactory to you, containing statements and information of the type ordinarily included in accountants “comfort letters” to Underwriter with respect to the financial statements of the Company and certain financial information contained in the Prospectus, and to the effect set forth in Exhibit A hereto.

(e) (i) The Company, the Bank, MIG, STM and their respective subsidiaries shall not have sustained since the date of the latest audited financial statements included in the Prospectus any loss or interference with its business from fire, explosion, flood or other calamity, whether or not covered by insurance, or from any labor dispute or court or governmental action, order or decree, otherwise than as set forth or contemplated in the Prospectus, and (ii) since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Prospectus there shall not have been any change in the capital stock or long-term debt of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any change, or any development involving a prospective change, in or affecting the general affairs, management, financial position, stockholders’ equity or results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries, otherwise than as set forth or contemplated in the Prospectus, the effect of which, in any such case described in clause (i) or (ii), is in the judgment of the Underwriter so material and adverse as to make it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or the delivery of the Securities being delivered at such Delivery Date on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus;

(f) On or after the date hereof there shall not have occurred any of the following: (i) a suspension or material limitation in trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or on the Nasdaq Stock Market; (ii) a suspension or material limitation in trading in the Company’s securities on the Nasdaq Stock Market; (iii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities declared by either Federal, New York or Virginia authorities or a material disruption in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States; (iv) the outbreak or escalation of hostilities involving the United States or the declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war; or (v) the occurrence of any other calamity or crisis or any change in financial, political or economic conditions in the United States or elsewhere, including without limitation, as a result of terrorist activities occurring after the date hereof, if the effect of any such event specified in clause (iv) or (v), in the judgment of the Underwriter makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or the delivery of the Securities being delivered at such Delivery Date on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus;

(g) The Shares to be sold at such Delivery Date shall have been duly listed for quotation on the Nasdaq Capital Market;

(h) The Company has obtained and delivered to the Underwriter executed copies of an agreement from each officer and director, in each case as listed on Schedule II hereto of the Company, substantially in the form of Exhibit B;

(i) The Company shall have furnished or caused to be furnished to the Underwriter at such Delivery Date certificates of officers of the Company satisfactory to the Underwriter as to the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company herein at and as of such Delivery Date, as to the performance by the Company of all of its obligations hereunder to be performed at or prior to such Delivery Date, as to the matters set forth in subsections (a) and (e) of this Section and as to such other matters as the Underwriter may reasonably request.

If any of the conditions specified in this Section 7 shall not have been fulfilled in all material respects when and as provided in this Agreement, or if any of the opinions and certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this Agreement shall not be in all material respects reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Representative and its counsel, this Agreement and all obligations of the Underwriters hereunder may be canceled at, or at any time prior to, the Closing Date by the Representative. Notice of such cancellation shall be given to the Company in writing or by telephone or facsimile (with written confirmation of receipt).

(a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless the Underwriter against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Underwriter may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any breach of any representation, warranty, agreement or covenant of the Company herein contained or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse each Underwriter for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending, or appearing as a third party witness in connection with, any such action or claims as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by you expressly for use therein.

(b) The Underwriter agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company against any losses, claims damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in any Preliminary Prospectus, Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or Prospectus or any such amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Underwriter through you expressly for use therein; and will reimburse the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending, or appearing as a third party witness in connection with, any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred. The Company acknowledges that for purposes of this Section 8 the statements set forth under the heading “Underwriting” in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus constitute the only information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Underwriter for inclusion therein.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under such subsection, unless and to the extent that such indemnifying party did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, that if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have

been advised by counsel that representation of such indemnified party and the indemnifying party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest under applicable standards of professional conduct due to actual or potential differing interests between them, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to defend such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall, in connection with any such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of only one separate firm or attorneys together with appropriate local counsel at any time for all indemnified parties not having actual or potential differing interests with any indemnified party. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to appoint counsel to defend such action and approval by the indemnified party of such counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable for any settlement entered into without its consent and will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the next preceding sentence, (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action or (iii) the indemnifying party has authorized in writing the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party; and except that, if clause (i) or (iii) is applicable, such liability shall be only in respect of the counsel referred to in such clause (i) or (iii). Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence and the third preceding sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request; (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement, provided, however, that an indemnified party shall not be entitled to enter into such settlement so long as any good faith dispute presented in writing by the indemnifying party with respect to the reimbursement remains unresolved.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Securities. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriter on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriter on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total underwriting discounts received by the Underwriter, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or the Underwriter on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Underwriter agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this subsection (d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), the Underwriter shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(e) The obligations of the Company under this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each officer, director, employee and agent of the Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act; and the obligations of the Underwriter under this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liability which the Underwriter may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each officer and director of the Company and to each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act.

The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company and the Underwriter, as set forth in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of them, respectively, pursuant to this Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation (or any statement as to the results thereof) made by or on behalf of the Underwriter or any controlling person of the Underwriter, or the Company, or any officer or director or controlling person of the Company, and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Securities.

(a) The Underwriter may terminate this Agreement, by notice to the Company, at any time on or prior to the delivery of any payment for Securities, if prior to such time there shall have occurred any of the following: (i) a suspension or material limitation in trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Market; (ii) a suspension or material limitation in trading in the Company’s securities on the Nasdaq Stock Market (iii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities declared by either Federal, New York or Virginia authorities or a material disruption in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States; or (iv) the outbreak or escalation of hostilities involving the United States or the declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war; or (v) the occurrence of any other calamity or crisis or any change in financial, political or economic conditions in the United States or elsewhere, including without limitation, as a result of terrorist activities occurring after the date hereof, if the effect of any such event specified in clause (iv) or (v), in the judgment of the Underwriter make it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or the delivery of the Securities being delivered at such Delivery Date on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus.

(b) If this Agreement shall be terminated pursuant to this Section 10, the Company shall not then be under any liability to the Underwriter except as provided in Section 6 and Section 8 hereof; but if the sale of the Securities provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the obligations of the Underwriter set forth in Section 7 hereof is not satisfied or because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Company to perform any agreements herein or comply with the provisions hereof other than by reason of a default by the Underwriter, the Company will be responsible for and will reimburse the Underwriter upon demand for all out-of-pocket expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel, reasonably incurred by the Underwriter in connection with the proposed purchase, sale and delivery of the Securities. Nothing in this Section 10 shall be deemed to relieve the Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the Company for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

In all dealings hereunder, the Underwriter shall act on behalf of each of the selected dealers, and the parties hereto shall be entitled to act and rely upon any statement, request, notice or agreement on behalf of any selected dealer made or given by you. All statements, requests, notices and agreements hereunder shall be in writing or by telegram if promptly confirmed in writing, and if to the Underwriter shall be sufficient in all respects if delivered or sent by mail, telex or facsimile transmission to Scott & Stringfellow, LLC, 909 East Main Street, Richmond, Virginia 23219, Attention: G. Jacob Savage, III, Managing Director; and if to the Company shall be sufficient in all

respects if delivered or sent by mail or facsimile transmission to the address of the Company set forth in the Prospectus, Attention: Joseph L. Boling, Chief Executive Officer. Any such statements, requests, notices or agreements shall take effect upon receipt thereof, provided, however, that any notice to any selected dealer pursuant to Section 11 hereof shall be delivered or sent by mail or facsimile transmission to such selected dealer, which will be supplied to the Company by you upon request.

This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure solely to the benefit of, the Underwriter, the Company and, to the extent provided in Sections 8 and 9 hereof, the officers and directors of the Company and each person who controls the Company or the Underwriter, and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, and no other person shall acquire or have any right under or by virtue of this Agreement. No purchaser of any of the Securities from the Underwriter shall be deemed a successor or assign by reason merely of such purchase.

As used herein, the term “business day” shall mean any day when the Commission’s office in Washington, D.C. is open for business.

The Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the public offering price of the Securities and any related discounts and commissions, is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriter, on the other hand, (ii) in connection with the offering contemplated hereby and the process leading to such transaction each Underwriter is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the agent or fiduciary of the Company, or the Company’s shareholders, creditors, employees or any other third party, (iii) the Underwriter has not assumed or will not assume an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company with respect to the offering contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Company on other matters) and the Underwriter does not have any obligation to the Company with respect to the offering contemplated hereby except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement, (iv) the Underwriter and its affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Company, and (v) the Underwriter has not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering contemplated hereby and the Company has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate.

The Company acknowledges that the Underwriter’s research analysts and research departments are required to be independent from their respective investment banking divisions and are subject to certain regulations and internal policies, and that such research analysts may hold views and make statements or investment recommendations and/or publish reports with respect to the Company and/or the offering that differ from the views of their respective investment banking divisions. The Company hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Company may have against the Underwriters with respect to any conflict of interest that may arise from the fact that the views expressed by their independent research analysts and research departments may be different from or inconsistent with the views or advice communicated to the Company by such Underwriter’s investment banking divisions. The Company acknowledges that the Underwriters is a full service securities firm and as such from time to time, subject to applicable securities laws, may effect transactions for its own account or the account of its customers and hold long or short positions in debt or equity securities of the companies that may be the subject of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

The invalidity or unenforceability of any Section, paragraph or provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other Section, paragraph or provision hereof. If any Section, paragraph or provision of this Agreement is for any reason determined to be invalid or unenforceable, there shall be deemed to be made such minor changes (and only such minor changes) as are necessary to make it valid and enforceable.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed within such state.

This Agreement may be executed by any one or more of the parties hereto in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, nor any consent or approval to any departure therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the parties hereto.

If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding, please sign and return to us two counterparts hereof, and upon the acceptance hereof by you, this letter and such acceptance hereof shall constitute a binding agreement between the Underwriter and the Company.


Very truly yours,

Pursuant to Section 7(d) of the Underwriting Agreement, Yount, Hyde & Barbour, P.C., shall furnish letters to the Underwriter to the effect that:

1. They are independent public accountants with respect to the Company and its subsidiaries within the meaning of the Securities Act and the applicable published rules and regulations thereunder;

2. In their opinion, the consolidated audited financial statements audited by them and included in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as applicable, and the related published rules and regulations thereunder;

3. On the basis of limited procedures, not constituting an examination in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, consisting of a reading of the latest unaudited financial statements made available by the Company, inspection of the minute books of the Company, the Bank, MIG and STM since the date of the latest audited financial statements included in the Prospectus, inquiries of officials of the Company, the Bank, MIG and STM responsible for financial and accounting matters and such other inquiries and procedures as may be specified in such letter, nothing came to their attention that caused them to believe that:

(A) the unaudited consolidated financial statements included in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus do not comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Securities Act and published rules and regulations thereunder or are not presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applied on a basis substantially consistent with that of the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Registration Statements or Prospectus;

In consideration of the agreement by the Underwriter to purchase and make the public offering of the Common Stock, and for other good and valuable consideration receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby agrees that (other than as set forth below), during the period beginning from the date of the Underwriting Agreement and continuing to and including the date ninety (90) days after such date, the undersigned will not sell, offer, agree to sell, contract to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale or otherwise dispose of or hedge, directly or indirectly, any shares of Common Stock of the Company or securities convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for any shares of Common Stock of the Company or warrants or other rights to purchase Common Stock or any other securities of the Company that are substantially similar to the Common Stock of the Company, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, owned directly by the undersigned (including holding as a custodian) or with respect to which the undersigned may be deemed to have beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, whether held of record or through an agent, custodian, nominee or otherwise, (collectively, the “Undersigned’s Shares”) or publicly announce an intention to do any of the foregoing.

The foregoing restriction is expressly agreed to preclude the undersigned from engaging in any hedging or other transaction or arrangement that is designed to, or which reasonably could be expected to, lead to or result in a sale, disposition or transfer, in whole or in part, of any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Undersigned’s Shares, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or other securities, in cash or otherwise, even if such shares would be disposed of by someone other than the undersigned. Such prohibited hedging or other transactions would include, without limitation, any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including, without limitation, any put or call option) with respect to any of the Undersigned’s Shares or with respect to any security that includes, relates to, or derives any significant part of its value from the Undersigned’s Shares.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the undersigned may transfer the Undersigned’s Shares (i) as a bona fide gift or gifts, provided that the donee or donees thereof agree to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth herein, (ii) to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or the immediate family of the undersigned, provided that the trustee of the trust agrees to be bound in writing by the restrictions set forth herein, and provided further that any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, or (iii) with the prior written consent of the Underwriter. For purposes of this Agreement, “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin. The undersigned now has and, except as contemplated by clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above, for the duration of this Agreement will have, good and marketable title to the Undersigned’s Shares, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, and claims whatsoever. The undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company against the transfer of the Undersigned’s Shares, except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company is hereby authorized to decline to make any transfer of securities if such transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this Lock-Up Agreement.

The undersigned represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement. The undersigned agrees that the provisions of this Agreement shall be binding also upon the successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the undersigned.

The undersigned understands that, if the Underwriting Agreement (other than the provisions thereof which survive termination) shall terminate or be terminated prior to payment for and delivery of the Common Stock to be sold thereunder, the undersigned shall be released from all obligations under this Agreement.

Yours very truly,
