As previously disclosed, on December 29, 2009, First National Bancshares (the “Company”) received a letter from the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”) that stated the Company’s common stock closed below the required minimum $1.00 per share bid price for the previous 30 consecutive business days.  The letter also indicated that, in accordance with NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company had a period of 180 calendar days, until June 28, 2010, to regain compliance with Rule 5550(a)(2).  On June 29, 2010, the Company received a subsequent letter from NASDAQ that stated the Company had not regained compliance with Rule 5550(a)(2).  Thus, the Company’s common stock will cease to be listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market as of the opening of business on July 8, 2010.

Concurrently, a market maker in the Company’s common stock has enabled the stock to be quoted on the Pink OTC Markets Inc. beginning on July 8, 2010.  In addition, a market maker has applied for the stock to be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board.  The Company’s common stock was quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board from the Company’s initial funding in 2000 through October 31, 2005.

The Company will continue to file annual, quarterly and other reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
