Item 1 Business

General

First West Virginia Bancorp, Inc. (“Holding Company”), was organized as a West Virginia business corporation on July 1, 1973 at the request of the Boards of Directors of the Bank of Warwood, N.A. and Community Savings Bank, N.A. for the purpose of becoming a bank holding company, under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. On December 30, 1974 the shareholders of those banks voted to become constituent banks of the Holding Company, which reorganization was subsequently accomplished in accordance with regulatory procedure, and the Holding Company thus became the first bank holding company in the state of West Virginia. Those banks later merged on June 30, 1984 under the name “First West Virginia Bank, N.A.” In November, 1995, the subsidiary banks of the Holding Company adopted the Common Name of “Progressive Bank, N.A.”

At December 31, 2007, First West Virginia Bancorp, Inc. had one wholly-owned banking subsidiary, Progressive Bank, N.A. in Wheeling, West Virginia.

Progressive Bank, N. A. is a community bank serving all of Ohio, Brooke, Marshall, Upshur, Lewis and Wetzel counties in the state of West Virginia, and a portion of the west bank of the Ohio River, located in the State of Ohio. Progressive Bank, N.A. operates three full-service offices in Ohio county, Wheeling, West Virginia, one full-service office in Brooke county, Wellsburg, West Virginia, one full-service office in Marshall county, Moundsville, West Virginia, one full-service office in Wetzel county, New Martinsville, West Virginia, one full-service office in Upshur county, Buckhannon, West Virginia, one full-service office in Lewis county, Weston, West Virginia, and one full-service office in Bellaire, Ohio. Progressive Bank, N.A. had total assets of approximately $252.7 million as of December 31, 2007.

Total Holding Company assets as of December 31, 2007, which include the assets of its operating subsidiary bank, were $253.2 million. The authorized capital of the Holding Company consists of 2,000,000 shares of capital stock, par value of $5.00 per share, of which 1,538,443 shares less 10,000 treasury shares were issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2006 to 291 registered shareholders. Shareholders’ equity at that date was $27,214,599.

General Description of Business

First West Virginia Bancorp, Inc. is dependent upon its subsidiary for cash necessary to pay expenses, and dividends to its stockholders. The Holding Company functions primarily as the holder of the capital stock of its wholly-owned subsidiary bank.

The subsidiary bank of the Holding company is engaged in the business of banking and provides a broad range of consumer and commercial banking products and services to individuals, businesses, professionals and governments. The services and products have been designed in such a manner as to appeal to area consumers and businesses. The loan portfolio of the bank consists primarily of loans secured by real estate to consumers and businesses. The bank also engages in commercial loans and general consumer loans to individuals. The subsidiary bank offers a wide range of both personal and commercial types of deposit accounts and services as a means of gathering funds. Types of deposit accounts and services available include non-interest bearing demand checking, interest bearing checking (NOW accounts), savings, money market, certificates of deposit, individual retirement accounts, and Christmas Club accounts. The customer base for deposits is primarily retail in nature. The majority of the bank’s lending is concentrated in the upper Ohio Valley of northern West Virginia and adjacent areas of Ohio and Pennsylvania.

First West Virginia Bancorp, Inc.’s business is not seasonal. As of December 31, 2007, the subsidiary bank was not engaged in any operation in foreign countries and transactions with customers in foreign countries is not material.

Competition

Competition involving the Holding Company is generally felt at the subsidiary level. All phases of the banks’ business are highly competitive. The subsidiary bank encounters competition from commercial banks and other financial institutions. The subsidiary bank also competes with other insurance companies, small loan companies, credit unions with respect to lending activities and also in attracting a variety of deposit related instruments.

See Item 1A “Risk Factors” on page 9.

Supervision and Regulation

The Holding Company is subject to the provisions of the Federal Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, and to the supervision of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. The Bank Holding Company Act requires the Holding Company to secure the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board before it can acquire all or substantially all of the assets of any bank, or acquire ownership or control of any voting shares of any bank, if, after such acquisition, it would own or control 5% or more of the voting shares of such bank. Similarly, a bank holding company is prohibited under the Act from engaging in, or acquiring direct or indirect control of 5% or more of the voting shares of any company engaged in non-banking activities unless the Federal Reserve Board, by order or regulation, has found such activities to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto. In making determinations as to permitted non-banking activities, the Federal Reserve Board considers whether the performance of these activities by a bank holding company would offer benefits to the public which outweigh possible adverse effects.

As a bank holding company, the Holding Company is required to file with the Federal Reserve Board reports and any additional

4

information that the Federal Reserve Board may require pursuant to the Bank Holding Company Act. The Federal Reserve Board also makes examinations of the Holding Company. The Holding Company is also required to register with the Office of the Commissioner of Banking of West Virginia and file reports as requested. The Commissioner has the power to examine the Holding Company and its subsidiary.

The Holding Company is also deemed an “affiliate” of its subsidiary bank under the Federal Reserve Act which imposes certain restrictions on loans between the Holding Company and its subsidiary bank, investments by the subsidiary in the stock of the Holding Company, or the taking of stock of the Holding Company by the subsidiary as collateral for loans to any borrower, or purchases by the subsidiary of certain assets from the Holding Company, and the payment of dividends by the subsidiary to the Holding Company.

Federal Reserve Board approval is required before the Holding Company may begin to engage in any permitted non-banking activity. The Federal Reserve Board is empowered to differentiate between activities which are initiated by a bank holding company or a subsidiary and activities commenced by acquisition of a going concern.

The operations of the Holding Company’s subsidiary bank, being a national bank, is subject to the regulations of a number of regulatory agencies including the regulations of a number of regulatory authorities including the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the applicable state Department of Banking. Representatives of the Comptroller of the Currency regulate and conduct examinations of the subsidiary bank. The subsidiary bank is required to furnish regular reports to the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Comptroller of the Currency has the authority to prevent national banks from engaging in an unsafe or unsound bank practice and may remove officers or directors. It may be noted that the subsidiary bank of a bank holding company is subject to certain restrictions imposed by the banking laws on extensions of credit to the bank holding company or its subsidiary.

In December, 2004 the Company’s subsidiary bank entered into a Formal Agreement with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC). The Formal Agreement contained certain required actions and certain restrictions. This agreement was terminated by the OCC on December 13, 2006. The Company also adopted a resolution with the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland, under authority given it by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the federal regulatory agency for the Company. As with the agreement of the OCC, the Federal Reserve resolution necessitated certain actions and restrictions. Without prior Federal Reserve approval and a 30 day prior notice requirement, the resolution prohibited the Company from paying dividends, incurring debt, or participating in the acquisition of treasury stock. In addition, prior written approval was required before engaging in any non-bank activities. The resolution was terminated by the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland effective as of January 30, 2007.

Being a West Virginia corporation, the Holding Company is also subject to the corporate laws of the State of West Virginia as set forth in the West Virginia Corporation Act.

The Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act (“FIRREA”) was enacted in August, 1989. This legislation created a new liability as a depository institution insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance corporation, (“the FDIC”), can be held liable for any loss incurred by, or reasonably expected to be incurred by, the FDIC after August 9, 1989 in connection with (i) the default of a commonly controlled FDIC-insured depository institution or (ii) any assistance provided by the FDIC to a commonly controlled FDIC-insured depository institution in danger of default. Default is defined generally as the appointment of a conservator or receiver and “in danger of default” is defined generally as the existence of certain conditions indicating that default is likely to occur in the absence of regulatory assistance.

Capital Requirements

The Federal Reserve Board and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency require a minimum “tier 1” capital to be at least 3% of total assets (“Leverage Ratio”). For all but the most highly rated banks, the minimum Leverage Ratio requirement will be 4% to 5% of total assets. Tier 1 capital consists of: (i) common stockholders’ equity, noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and minority interests in consolidated subsidiaries; (ii) minus intangible assets (other than certain purchased mortgage and credit card servicing rights); and (iii) minus certain losses, and minus investments in certain securities of subsidiaries.

In addition, a national bank also must maintain a “tier 1 risk-based capital ratio” of 4%. The “tier 1 risk-based capital ratio” is defined in OCC regulations as the ratio to tier 1 capital to “risk-weighted assets”. A bank’s total risk-weighted assets are determined by: (i) converting each of its off-balance sheet items to an on-balance sheet credit equivalent amount; (ii) assigning each on-balance sheet asset and the credit equivalent amount of each off-balance sheet item to one of the five risk categories established in the OCC regulations; and (iii) multiplying the amounts in each category by the risk factor assigned to that category. The sum of the resulting amounts constitutes total risk-weighted assets.

A national bank is also required to maintain a “total risk-based capital ratio” of at least 8%. The “total risk-based capital ratio” is defined in the OCC regulations as the ratio of total qualifying capital to risk-weighted assets (as defined before). Total capital, for purposes of the risk-based capital requirement, consists of the sum of tier 1 capital (as defined for purposes of the Leverage Ratio) and supplementary capital. Supplementary capital includes such items as cumulative perpetual preferred stock, long-term and intermediate-term preferred stock, term subordinated debt and general valuation loan and lease loss allowances (but only in an amount of up to 1.25% of total risk-weighted assets). The maximum amount of supplementary capital that may be counted towards satisfaction of the total capital requirement is limited to 100% of core capital. Additionally, term subordinated debt and intermediate-term preferred stock may only be included in supplementary capital up to 50% of tier 1 capital.

Capital requirements higher than the generally applicable minimum requirements may be established for a particular national bank if the OCC determines that the bank’s capital is or may become inadequate in view of its particular circumstances. Individual minimum capital requirements may be imposed where a bank is receiving special supervisory attention, has a high degree of exposure to interest rate risk, or poses other safety or soundness concerns.

Failure to meet capital guidelines could subject a bank or bank holding company to a variety of enforcement remedies including, the issuance of a capital directive, the termination of deposit insurance by the FDIC, a prohibition on accepting brokered deposits and certain other restrictions on its business.

5

As of December 31, 2007, the most recent notifications from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency categorized the bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes has changed the capital category.

Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991

The Holding Company may also be subject to certain provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvements Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”). FDICIA requires the Federal Reserve Board of Governors to adopt certain regulations establishing safety and soundness standards for bank holding companies. Many of the provisions of the regulation became effective in December, 1993. Additional provisions will be implemented through the adoption of regulation by various federal banking agencies.

Under OCC regulations, any national bank that receives notice that it is undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized or critically undercapitalized must file a capital restoration plan with the OCC addressing, among other things, the manner in which the association will increase its capital to comply with all applicable capital standards. Under the prompt corrective action regulations adopted by the OCC, an institution will be considered: (i) “well capitalized” if the institution has a total risk-based capital ratio of 10% or greater, a tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6% or greater, and Leverage Ratio of 5% or greater (provided the institution is not subject to an order, written agreement, capital directive or prompt corrective action to meet and maintain a specified capital level for any capital measure); (ii) “adequately capitalized” if the institution has a total risk-based capital ratio of 8% or greater, a tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 4% or greater, and a Leverage Ratio of 4% or greater (3% or greater if the institution is rated composite 1 in its most recent report of examination); (iii) “undercapitalized” if the institution has a total risk-based capital ratio of less than 8%, or a tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of less than 4%, or a Leverage Ratio of less than 4% (3% if the institution is rated composite 1 in its most recent report of examination); (iv) “significantly undercapitalized” if the institution has a total risk-based capital ratio of less than 6%, or a tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of less than 3%, or a Leverage Ratio that is less than 3%; and (v) “critically undercapitalized” if the institution has a ratio of tangible equity to total assets that is less than 2%. The regulations also permit the OCC to determine that an institution should be placed in a lower category based on the existence of an unsafe and unsound condition or on other information, such as the institution’s examination report, after written notice.

The degree of regulatory intervention mandated by FDICIA and the prompt corrective action regulations are tied to a national bank’s capital category, with increasing scrutiny and more stringent restrictions being imposed as a bank’s capital declines. The prompt corrective actions specified by FDICIA for undercapitalized banks include increased monitoring and periodic review of capital compliance efforts, a requirement to submit a capital restoration plan, restrictions on dividends and total asset growth, and limitations on certain new activities (such as opening new branches and engaging in acquisitions and new lines of business) without OCC approval. Banks that are significantly undercapitalized or critically undercapitalized may be required to raise additional capital so that the bank will be adequately capitalized or be acquired by, or combined with, another bank if grounds exist for appointing a receiver. Further, the OCC may restrict such banks from (i) entering into any material transaction without prior approval of the OCC; (ii) making payments on subordinated debt; (iii) extending credit for any highly leveraged transaction; (iv) making any material change in accounting methods; (v) engaging in certain affiliate transactions; (vi) paying interest on deposits in excess of the prevailing rates of interest in the region where the institution is located; (vii) paying excess compensation or bonuses; and (viii) accepting deposits from correspondent depository institutions. In addition, the OCC may require that such banks; (a) hold a new election for directors, dismiss any director or senior executive officer who held office for more than 180 days immediately before the institution became undercapitalized, or employ qualified senior executive officers; and (b) divest or liquidate any subsidiary which the OCC determines poses a significant risk to the institution.

Any company which controls a significantly undercapitalized national bank may be required to (i) divest or liquidate any affiliate other than an insured depository institution; or (ii) divest the bank if the OCC determines that divestiture would improve the bank’s financial condition and future prospects. Generally a conservator or receiver must be appointed for a critically undercapitalized bank no later than 90 days after the bank becomes critically undercapitalized, subject to a limited exception for banks which are in compliance with an approved capital restoration plan and which the OCC certifies as not likely to fail. Additionally, the OCC may impose such other restrictions on a capital-deficient bank as the OCC deems necessary or appropriate for the safety and soundness of the bank, its depositors and investors, including limitations on investments and lending activities. The failure by a bank to materially comply with an approved capital plan constitutes an unsafe or unsound practice.

FDICIA and the regulations promulgated by the OCC pursuant thereto also require any company that has control of an “undercapitalized” national bank, in conjunction with the submission of a capital restoration plan by the bank, to guarantee that the bank will comply with the plan and provide appropriate assurances of performance. The aggregate liability of any such controlling company under such guaranty is limited to the lesser of: (i) 5% of the bank’s assets at the time it became undercapitalized; or (ii) the amount necessary to bring the bank into capital compliance at the time the bank fails to comply with the terms of its capital plan.

Monetary Policies

The earnings of the Holding Company are dependent upon the earnings of its wholly-owned subsidiary bank. The earnings of the subsidiary bank is affected by the policies of regulatory authorities, including the Comptroller of the Currency, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The policies and regulations of the regulatory agencies have had and will continue to have a significant effect on deposits, loans and investment growth, as well as the rate of interest earned and paid, and therefore will affect the earnings of the subsidiary banks and the Holding Company in the future, although the degree of such impact cannot accurately be predicted.

6

Employees

As of December 31, 2007, the Holding Company had 4 part-time employees. As of December 31, 2007, the subsidiary bank of the Holding Company had a total of 102 full-time employees and 9 part-time employees. No employees are union participants or subject to a collective bargaining agreement.

Interstate Banking

The Bank Holding Company Act prohibits acquisition by the Holding Company of 5% or more of the voting shares of, or interest in, all or substantially all of the assets of any bank without prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board. Regulations in the state of West Virginia have permitted the reciprocal interstate branching or acquisition of banks and bank holding companies since July 1, 1997. Many other states have adopted legislation which would permit interstate acquisitions by their banks and bank holding companies and also permit entry by West Virginia bank holding companies. Such legislation, however, contains various restrictions and conditions.

Securities Laws and Compliance

As of February 13, 1995, the Holding Company’s common stock was registered with the Securities and Exchange commission (“SEC”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“1934 Act”). This registration requires ongoing compliance with the 1934 Act and its periodic filing requirements as well as a wide range of Federal and State securities laws. These requirements include, but are not limited to, the filing of annual, quarterly and other reports with the SEC, certain requirements as to the solicitation of proxies from shareholders as well as other proxy rules, and compliance with the reporting requirements and “short-swing” profit rules imposed by section 16 of the 1934 Act.

Acquisitions of or Affiliations With Other Banks or Bank Holding Companies

The Board of Directors of the Company from time to time has had exploratory discussions with other banks and bank holding companies with which an affiliation might be desirable. While all such discussions have been quite amicable, there are presently no understandings, agreements, or letters of intent to affiliate. Undoubtedly, exploratory discussions with other banks and bank holding companies will continue from time to time. The Board of Directors of the Company remains committed to obtaining a high return on the shareholders’ investment, consistent with sound and prudent banking practices, and believes that the acquisition of or affiliation with selected banks, bank holding companies and permitted non-banking activities is a desirable means to accomplish that objective. The Company has authorized but unissued shares of stock which might be issued from time to time to raise additional capital or for other bank affiliations or other corporate purposes.

Item 1A Risk Factors

You should carefully review and consider the following risk factors, together with the other information provided in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Due to Increased Competition, the Bank May Not Be Able to Attract and Retain Banking Customers At Current Levels Adversely affecting Company Profits.

If, due to competition from competitors in the Bank’s market areas, the Bank is unable to attract new and retain current customers, loan and deposit growth could decrease causing the Bank’s results of operations and financial condition to be negatively impacted. The Bank faces competition from the following:

1. local, regional and national banks;

2. savings and loans;

3. internet banks;

4. credit unions;

5. insurance companies;

6. finance companies; and

7. brokerage firms serving the Company’s market areas.

The Bank’s Lending Limit May Prevent It from Making Large Loans.

In the future, the Bank may not be able to attract larger volume customers because the size of loans that the Bank can offer to potential customers is less than the size of the loans that many of the company’s larger competitors can offer. We anticipate that our lending limit will continue to increase proportionately with the Bank’s growth in earnings; however, the Bank may not be able to successfully attract or maintain larger customers.

Certain Loans That the Bank Makes Are Riskier than Loans for Real Estate Lending.

The Bank makes loans that involve a greater degree of risk than loans involving residential real estate lending. Commercial business loans may involve greater risks than other types of lending because they are often made based on varying forms of collateral, and repayment of these loans often depends on the success of the commercial venture. Consumer loans may involve greater risk because adverse changes in borrowers’ incomes and employment after funding of the loans may impact their abilities to repay the loans.

The Bank’s loan portfolio at December 31, 2007, consists of the following:

Type of Loan	Percentage of Portfolio
Residential Real Estate	38.3	%
Commercial, Principally Real Estate Secured	41.2	%
Consumer	10.5	%

If the value of real estate in our market area were to decline materially, a significant portion of our loan portfolio could become under-collateralized, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

At December 31, 2007, approximately 73% of our loans were secured by real estate. The real estate collateral in each case provides an alternate source of repayment in the event of default by the borrower and may deteriorate in value during the time the credit is extended. Our market and the U.S. generally are experiencing a period of reduced real estate values, and if we are required to liquidate the collateral securing a loan to satisfy the debt during a period of reduced real estate values, our earnings and capital could be adversely affected.

Current and anticipated deterioration in the housing market and the homebuilding industry may lead to increased losses and further worsening of delinquencies and non-performing assets in our loan portfolios. Consequently, our results of operations may be adversely impacted.

There has been substantial industry concern and publicity over asset quality among financial institutions due in large part to issues related to subprime mortgage lending, declining real estate values and general economic concerns. Furthermore, the housing and the residential mortgage markets recently have experienced a variety of difficulties and changed economic conditions. If market conditions continue to deteriorate, they may lead to additional valuation adjustments in our loan portfolios and other real estate owned as we continue to reassess the market value of our loan portfolio, the losses associated with the loans in default and the net realizable value of other real estate owned.

The homebuilding industry has experienced a sustained decline in demand for new homes and an oversupply of new and existing homes available for sale in various markets, including the market area in which we lend. Our customers who are builders and developers face greater difficulty in selling their homes in markets where these trends are more pronounced. Consequently, we are facing the risk of increased delinquencies and non-performing assets as these builders and developers are forced to default on their loans with us. We do not know when the housing market will improve, and accordingly, additional downgrades, provisions for loan losses and charge-offs related to our loan portfolio may occur.

The Bank Is Subject to Interest Rate Risk.

Aside from credit risk, the most significant risk resulting from the Bank’s normal course of business, extending loans and accepting deposits, is interest rate risk. If market interest rate fluctuations cause the bank’s cost of funds to increase faster than the yield of its interest-earning assets, then its net interest income will be reduced. The Bank’s results of operations depend to a large extent on the level of net interest income, which is the difference between income from interest-earning assets, such as loans and investment securities, and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, such as deposits and borrowings. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors that are beyond the company’s control, including general economic conditions and the policies of various governmental and regulatory authorities.

Item 1A Risk Factors - Continued

The Company and the Bank rely heavily on their management team, and the unexpected loss of key management may adversely affect operations.

The success of the Company and the Bank to date has been influenced strongly by their ability to attract and to retain senior management experienced in banking and financial services. The ability to retain executive officers and the current management teams will continue to be important to the successful implementation of their strategies. Neither the Company nor the Bank have employment or non-compete agreements with any of these key employees. The unexpected loss of services of any key management personnel, or the inability to recruit and retain qualified personnel in the future, could have an adverse effect on business and financial results.

An Economic Slowdown in the Bank’s Market Area Could Hurt Our Business.

An economic slowdown in the Bank’s market areas could hurt our business. An economic slowdown could have the following consequences:

• Loan delinquencies may increase;

• Problem assets and foreclosures may increase;

• Demand for the products and services of the company may decline; and

• Collateral (including real estate) for loans made by the company may decline in value, in turn reducing customers’ borrowing power and making existing loans less secure.

The Company and the Bank are Extensively Regulated.

The operations of the Company are subject to extensive regulation by federal, state and local governmental authorities and are subject to various laws and judicial and administrative decisions imposing requirements and restrictions on them. Policies adopted or required by these governmental authorities can affect the company’s business operations and the availability, growth and distribution of the company’s investments, borrowings and deposits. Proposals to change the laws governing financial institutions are frequently raised in Congress and before bank regulatory authorities. Changes in applicable laws or policies could materially affect the Company’s business, and the likelihood of any major changes in the future and their effects are impossible to determine.

The Bank’s Allowance for Loan Losses May Not Be Sufficient.

In the future, the Bank could experience negative credit quality trends that could head to a deterioration of asset quality. Such deterioration could require the Bank to incur loan charge-offs in the future and incur additional loan loss provision, both of which would have the effect of decreasing earnings. The Bank maintains an allowance for possible loan losses, which is a reserve established through a provision for possible loan losses charged to expense that represents management’s best estimate of probable losses that have been incurred within the existing portfolio of loans. Any increases in the allowance for possible loan losses will result in a decrease in net income and, possibly, capital, and may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operation.

Shares of the Company’s Common Stock Are Not Insured.

Neither the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation nor any other governmental agency insures the shares of the Company’s common stock. Therefore, the value of your shares in the Company is based on their market value and may decline.

The Company’s Ability to Pay Dividends Depends Primarily on Dividends Received from the Bank, which is Subject to Regulatory Limits.

The ability of the Company, being a bank holding company, to pay dividends depends on its receipt of dividends from the Bank. Dividend payments from the Bank are subject to legal and regulatory limitations, generally based on net profits and retained earnings, imposed by the various banking regulatory agencies. The ability of the Bank to pay dividends is also subject to its profitability, financial condition, capital expenditures and other cash flow requirements. The payment of dividends is permitted but temporarily subject to the prior approval of the OCC and there is no assurance that the Bank will be permitted to pay dividends in the future. The Corporation’s failure to pay dividends on its common stock could have a material adverse effect on the market price of its common stock.

10

Item 1A Risk Factors - Continued

Customers May Default on the Repayment of Loans.

The Bank’s customers may default on the repayment of loans, which may negatively impact the Company’s earnings due to loss of principal and interest income. Increased operating expenses may result from the allocation of management time and resources to the collection and work-out of the loan. Collection efforts may or may not be successful causing the Bank to write off the loan or repossess the collateral securing the loan which may or may not exceed the balance of the loan.

The Company’s Controls and Procedures May Fail or Be Circumvented.

Management regularly reviews and updates the Company’s internal controls, disclosure controls and procedures, and corporate governance policies and procedures. Any system of controls, no matter how well designed and operated, is based in part on certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurances that the objectives of the system are met. Any failure or circumvention of the Company’s controls and procedures or failure to comply with regulations related to controls and procedures could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial conditions.

Item 9A Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management has performed its evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective, as of the end of the period covered by this report, in timely alerting them to material information as required to be included in the Company’s periodic Securities Exchange Commission filings.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2007 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The Company’s management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements and the related financial information included in this annual report. The financial statements and the information related to those statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and reflect management’s judgments and estimates concerning effects of events and transactions that are accounted for or disclosed.

The Company’s management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that pertain to the Company’s ability to record, process, summarize and report reliable financial data. Management recognizes that there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of internal control. Accordingly, even effective internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting may vary over time.

In order to ensure that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective, management is required to evaluate, with the participation of the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of the end of each fiscal year and did so most recently for its financial reporting as of December 31, 2007. Management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was based on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management has concluded that the internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2007. This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

The Board of Directors, acting through its Audit Committee, is responsible for the oversight of the Company’s accounting policies, financial reporting and internal control. The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is comprised entirely of outside directors who are independent of management. The Audit Committee is responsible for the appointment and compensation of the independent auditor and approves decisions regarding the appointment or removal of the Company’s Internal Auditor. It meets periodically with management, the independent auditors and the internal auditors to ensure that they are carrying out their responsibilities. The Audit Committee is also responsible for performing an oversight role by reviewing and monitoring the financial, accounting and auditing procedures of the Company in addition to reviewing the Company’s financial reports. The independent auditors and the internal auditor have full and unlimited access to the Audit Committee, with or without management, to discuss the adequacy of internal control over financial reporting, and any other matter which they believe should be brought to the attention of the Audit Committee.

The Company follows a written policy for the granting of loans to directors and executive officers. This policy is as follows: With the exception of the items specifically identified below, all loans to Board of Directors and Executive Officers will be reported to the subsidiary bank board in a timely manner. Credit extensions and terms for any of the above will be: (1) made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions by the bank for those who are not recognized as any of the above mentioned individuals and (2) does not involve more than the normal risk of repayment of present other unfavorable features:

1. Any executive officer, director, or principal shareholder requesting a loan is to submit a written application containing the purpose of the credit, and/or a financial statement depending upon the nature of the credit to the bank.

2. Loans to an Executive Officer are permitted in an aggregate amount that equals the higher of $25,000 or 2.5% of the bank’s capital. However, in no event shall the aggregate outstanding amount of these loans exceed $100,000.00. Executive Officers have been defined by the Board of Directors to include Chairman, President & CEO, Executive Vice President and COO, Senior V.P. & CFO.

3. Extensions of credit shall not be made to any of the bank’s Directors, or principal shareholders or to any related interest of that person in an amount that when aggregated with the amount of all other extensions of credit to that person and all related interests of that person exceeds the higher of $25,000 or 5% of the bank’s capital, and unimpaired surplus unless:

(1) The extension of credit or line of credit has been approved in advance by a majority of the entire Board of Directors, and

(2) The interested party has abstained from participating directly or indirectly in the vote.

(3) All loans exceeding the aggregate of $500,000 must be approved according to steps 1 and 2. Payment of an overdraft of an executive officer or director is not permitted unless the funds are made in accordance with 1) a written, preauthorized, interest bearing extension of credit plan that specifies a method of repayment or, 2) a written preauthorized transfer of funds from another account of the account holder at the bank. This prohibition does not apply to payment of inadvertent overdrafts on an account in an aggregate amount of $1,000 or less provided 1) the account is not overdrawn for more than 5 business days, and 2) the bank assess the usual fee charged any other customer of the bank in similar circumstances.

4. There are no limits on loans to Executive Officers of the Bank when the loan is for the purpose of educating dependent children or to purchase, refinance (or improve) that Officer’s principal residence. These loans, of course, must comply with all other bank policy, may not be at preferential rates and must be approved by the Board of Directors if they exceed the limits outlined in item (3) above. Loans to executive officers will be made subject to the condition that the loan will, at the option of the bank, become due and payable at any time that the officer is indebted to this and other financial institutions in an aggregate amount greater than the amount specified in the preceding paragraph.

5. Any borrowing from a financial institution (this bank, other banks, savings and loans, etc.) by an executive officer of this bank, that is in excess of the established limits, shall be immediately reported to the President, who will then report these loans to the Board of Directors. This report to the President will be in writing and will include the lender’s name, the date and amount of each loan, the security (if any), and the purpose for which the proceeds have been or will be used.

6. In compliance with Regulation O, the total of all loans to Executive Officers, Directors, Principal Shareholders and their related interest of the bank, holding companies and subsidiaries of the holding company, cannot exceed the amount of the bank’s unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus. This limit will be established by adding the total equity capital shown on the bank’s most recently filed consolidated report of condition and authorized subordinated notes and debentures, and the valuation reserve.

The Company also requires all directors to report related interests and to abstain prior to approval of any extensions of credit which are subject to board approval. Board approval is required for loans secured by real estate in excess of $300,000, non-real estate secured loans in excess of $150,000 and unsecured loans in excess of $25,000 to any related borrower. This is evidenced by the director signing a form prior to the approval of such loans.

Meetings of Shareholders

Section 1.01. ANNUAL MEETING. The regular annual meeting of the shareholders for the election of directors and the transaction of whatever other business may properly come before the meeting shall be held at the main office of the corporation, Wheeling, West Virginia or such other place as the Board of Directors may designate at 4:00 P.M., on the second Tuesday of April of each year. Notice of such meeting shall be mailed, postage prepaid, not less than ten nor more than forty days prior to the date thereof, addressed to each shareholder at his or her address appearing on the books of the corporation. If, for any cause, an election of directors is not made on the said day, the Board of Directors shall order the election to be held on some subsequent day, as soon thereafter as practicable, according to the provisions of law; and notice thereof shall be given in the manner herein provided for the annual meeting.

Section 1.02. SPECIAL MEETINGS. Except as otherwise specifically provided by statute, special meetings of the shareholders may be called for any purpose at any time by the Board of Directors or by any three or more shareholders owning, in the aggregate, not less than ten percent of the stock of the corporation. Every special meeting, unless otherwise provided by law, shall be called by mailing, postage prepaid, not less than five days nor more than forty days prior to the date fixed for such meeting, to each shareholder at his or her address appearing on the books of the corporation, a notice stating the purpose of the meeting.

Section 1.03. LIST OF SHAREHOLDERS. The officer or agent having charge of the stock transfer book for shares of the corporation shall make a complete record of the shareholders entitled to vote at any shareholders’ meeting or any adjournment thereof, arranged in alphabetical order, with the address of and the number of shares held by each. Such record shall be produced and kept open at the time and place of the meeting and shall be subject to the inspection of any shareholder during the whole time of the meeting.

Section 1.04. NOMINATIONS FOR DIRECTOR. Nominations for election to the Board of Directors may be made by the Board of Directors or by any shareholder of any outstanding class of capital stock of the corporation entitled to vote for the election of directors. Nominations, other than those made by or on behalf of the existing management of the corporation, shall be made in writing, and shall be delivered or mailed to the President of the corporation or to the Chairman of the Board of the corporation not less than fourteen days nor more than forty days prior to any meeting of shareholders called for the election of directors, provided, however, that if less than twenty-one days’ notice of the meeting is given to shareholders, such nominations shall be mailed or delivered to the President of the corporation or the Chairman of the Board of the corporation not later than the close of business on the seventh day following the day on which the notice of the meeting was mailed. Such notification shall contain the following information to the extent known to the notifying shareholder: (a) the name and address of each proposed nominee; (b) the principal occupation of each proposed nominee; (c) the total number of shares of capital stock of the corporation that will be voted by him or her for each proposed nominee; (d) the name and residence address of the notifying shareholder; and (e) the number of shares of capital stock of the corporation owned by the notifying shareholder. Nominations not made in accordance herewith, may, in the discretion of the presiding officer, be disregarded, and upon the presiding officer’s instructions, the vote tellers shall disregard all votes cast for each such nominee. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed as abridging or altering any of the provisions of W. Va. Code 31-1-93, regarding the procedure for cumulative voting.

Section 1.05. JUDGES OF ELECTION. Every election of directors shall be managed by three judges, who shall be appointed from among the shareholders by the Board of Directors, none of which judges shall be directors. The judges of election shall hold and conduct the election at which they are appointed to serve; and, after the election, they shall file with the Secretary a certificate under their hands, certifying the result thereof and the names of the directors elected. The judges of election, at the request of the presiding officer of the meeting, shall act as tellers of any other vote by ballot taken at such meeting, and shall certify the result thereof.

1

Section 1.06. PROXIES. Shareholders may vote at any meeting of the shareholders by proxies duly authorized in writing but no officer or employee of this corporation shall act as proxy. Proxies shall be valid only for one meeting, to be specified therein, and any adjournments of such meeting. Proxies shall be dated and shall be filed with the records of the meeting.

Section 1.07. QUORUM. A majority of the outstanding capital stock, represented in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at any meeting of shareholders, unless otherwise provided by law; but less than a quorum may adjourn any meeting, from time to time, and the meeting may be held, as adjourned, without further notice. A majority of the votes cast shall decide every question or matter submitted to the shareholders at any meeting, unless otherwise provided by law or by the Articles of Incorporation.

Section 1.08. OFFICERS OF SHAREHOLDERS MEETINGS. At each shareholder meeting the Chairman of the Board of Directors shall preside. In absence of the Chairman, the President shall preside. The Secretary of the Board of Directors shall keep accurate minutes of each meeting, and said minutes shall be signed by the presiding officer and the Secretary shall make permanent record in the Minutes Book to be kept for that purpose. These minutes shall be read, corrected if necessary, and approved at the next meeting of the shareholders.

Section 1.09. VOTING PROCEDURE AT MEETINGS. In elections of Directors, each shareholder shall have the right to cast one vote for each share of stock owned by him or her and entitled to a vote, and the shareholder may cast the same in person or by proxy, for as many persons as there are directors to be elected, or the shareholder may cumulate such votes and give one candidate as many votes as the number of directors to be elected multiplied by the number of his shares of stock shall equal; or the shareholder may distribute them on the same principle among as many candidates and in such manner as the shareholder shall desire, and the directors shall not be elected in any other manner. On any other question to be determined by a vote of shares at any meeting of shareholders, each shareholder shall be entitled to one vote for each share of stock owned by him or her and entitled to a vote, and the shareholder may exercise this right in person or by proxy.

ARTICLE II

Seal

Section 2.01. The seal of the corporation shall be circular, about two inches in diameter, with the name of the corporation engraved around the margin and the word “SEAL” engraved across the center. It shall remain in the custody of the Secretary, and it or a facsimile thereof shall be affixed to all certificates of the corporation’s shares. If deemed advisable by the Board of Directors, a duplicate seal may be kept and used by any other officer of the corporation, or by any Transfer Agent of its shares.

ARTICLE III

Shares

Section 3.01. CERTIFICATES. The shares of the corporation’s capital stock may be represented by certificates or uncertificated. Certificates of stock shall be issued in numerical order, and shall be signed by any two officers of the corporation as may be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors, and may be sealed with the seal of the corporation or a facsimile thereof. The signatures of such officers may be facsimiles if the certificate is manually signed on behalf of a transfer agent, or registered by a registrar, other than the corporation itself or an employee of the corporation. If an officer who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon such certificate ceases to be an officer of the corporation before the certificate is issued, it may be issued by the corporation with the same effect as if the person were an officer on the date of issue. The certificates for such shares, if used, shall be of such tenor and design as the Board of Directors from time to time may adopt. Each such certificate of stock shall state:

That the corporation is incorporated under the laws of the State of West Virginia;

2

The name of the person to whom issued;

The number and class of shares and the designation of the series, if any, which such certificate represents; and

The par value of each share represented by such certificate, or a statement that such shares are without par value.

Section 3.02. UNCERTIFICATED SHARES. The Board of Directors may authorize the issuance of uncertificated shares by the corporation, and may prescribe procedures for the issuance and registration of transfer thereof, and with respect to such other matters relating to uncertificated shares as the Board of Directors may deem appropriate. No such authorization shall affect previously issued and outstanding shares represented by certificates until such certificates shall have been surrendered to the corporation. Within a reasonable time after the issuance or transfer of any uncertificated shares, the corporation shall issue or cause to be issued to the holder of such shares a written statement of the information required to be included on stock certificates under the laws of the State of West Virginia and these Bylaws. Notwithstanding the adoption of any resolution providing for uncertificated shares, each registered holder of stock represented by uncertificated shares shall be entitled, upon request to the custodian of the stock transfer books of the corporation, or other person designated as the custodian of the records of uncertificated shares, to have physical certificates representing such shares registered in such holder’s name.

Section 3.03. TRANSFERS. (a) Transfers of stock shall be made only upon the stock transfer books of the corporation, kept at the registered office of the corporation or at its principal place of business, or at the office of its transfer agent or registrar and, in the case of certificated shares, before a new certificate is issued, the old certificate shall be surrendered for cancellation.

(b) Certificated shares of stock shall be transferred by delivery of the certificates therefor, accompanied either by an assignment in writing on the back of the certificate or an assignment separate from the certificate, or by a written power of attorney to sell, assign, and transfer the same, signed by the holder of said certificate. No certificated shares of stock shall be transferred on the books of the corporation until the outstanding certificates therefor have been surrendered to the corporation.

(c) The Board of Directors may, from time to time, by resolution open a share register in any state of the United States, and may employ such transfer agent or agents or registrars of shares as it may deem advisable to keep such register, and to record transfers of shares therein. The Board of Directors may also by resolution further define the powers and duties of such agents or registrars.

(d) All endorsements, assignments, transfers, share powers or other instruments or indicia of transfer of securities standing in the name of the corporation shall be executed for and in the name of the corporation by any two officers of the corporation as may be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors.

Section 3.04. LOST CERTIFICATES. The Board of Directors may order a new certificate or certificates of shares to be issued in place of any certificate or certificates alleged to have been lost or destroyed, but in every such case the owner of the lost certificate or certificates shall first cause to be given to the corporation a bond, with surety or sureties satisfactory to the corporation in such sum as said Board of Directors may in its discretion deem sufficient as indemnity against any loss or liability that the corporation may incur by reason of the issuance of such new certificates; but the Board of Directors may, in its discretion, refuse to issue such new certificate save upon the order of some court having jurisdiction in such matters.

Section 3.05. FIXING RECORD DATE. In order that the corporation may determine the shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of shareholders or any adjournment thereof, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a date as the record date for any such determination of shareholders, such date in any case to be not more than forty days and, in the case of a meting of shareholders, not less than ten days prior to the date on which the particular action, requiring such determination of shareholders, is to be taken. If no record date is fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of shareholders, or

3

shareholders entitled to receive payment of a dividend, the date on which notice of the meeting is mailed or the date on which the resolution of the Board of Directors declaring such dividend is adopted, as the case may be, shall be the record date for such determination of shareholders. When a determination of shareholders entitled to vote at any meeting of shareholders has been made as provided in this section, such determination shall apply to any adjournment thereof.

Section 3.06. REGISTERED SHAREHOLDERS. The corporation shall be entitled to recognize the exclusive right of a person registered on its books as the owner of shares to receive dividends, and to vote as such owner, and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such share or shares on the part of any other person, whether or not it shall have express or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by the laws of West Virginia.

ARTICLE IV

Directors

Section 4.01. BOARD OF DIRECTORS. The Board of Directors (sometimes referred to as the “Board”) shall have power to manage and administer the business and affairs of the corporation. Except as expressly limited by law and the Articles of Incorporation, all corporate powers of the corporation shall be vested in and may be exercised by said Board.

Section 4.02. NUMBER. The Board shall consist of net less than five nor more than twenty-five shareholders, the exact number within such minimum and maximum limits to be fixed and determined from time to time by resolution of a majority of the full Board or by resolution of the shareholders at any meeting thereof; provided, however, that a majority of the full Board of Directors may not increase the number of directors to a number which; (a) exceeds by more than two the number of directors last elected by shareholders where such number was fifteen or less; and (b) exceeds by more than four the number of directors last elected by shareholders where such number was sixteen or more, but in no event shall the number of directors exceed twenty-five.

Section 4.03. CLASSIFICATION. The directors of the corporation shall be classified with respect to the time for which they shall severally hold office by dividing them into three classes, each consisting of one-third of the whole number of the Board of Directors, and all directors of the corporation shall hold office until their successors are elected and qualified. At the first meeting held for the election of the three classes of directors, the directors of the first class shall be elected for a term of one year; the directors of the second class shall be elected for a term of two years; and the directors of the third class for a term of three years; and at each annual election thereafter the successors to the class of directors whose term shall expire that year shall be elected to hold office for the term of three years, so that the term of office of one class of directors shall expire in each year.

Section 4.04. ORGANIZATION MEETING. The Secretary, upon receiving the certificate of the judges of the result of any election, shall notify the directors-elect of their election and of the time at which they are required to meet at the Main Office of the corporation for the purpose of organizing the new Board and electing and appointing officers of the corporation for the succeeding year. Such meeting shall be held on the day of the election or as soon thereafter as practicable, and, in any event, within thirty days thereof. If, at the time fixed for such meeting, there shall not be a quorum present, the directors present may adjourn the meeting, from time to time, until a quorum is obtained.

Section 4.05. REGULAR MEETING. The regular meetings of the Board of Directors may be held without notice at such time and at such place as shall from time to time be determined by the Board.

Section 4.06. SPECIAL MEETINGS. Special meetings of the Board of Directors may be called by the Chairman of the Board or the President of the corporation, or at the request of three or more directors. Each member of the Board of Directors shall be given notice stating the time and place, by telephone, letter, or in person, of each such special meeting.

Section 4.07. QUORUM. A majority of the directors shall constitute a quorum at any meeting, except when otherwise provided by law; but a less number may adjourn any meeting, from time to time, and the meeting may be held, as adjourned, without further notice.

4

Section 4.08. VACANCIES IN THE BOARD. A resignation from the Board of Directors shall be deemed to take effect upon its receipt by the Secretary, unless some other time is specified therein. In case of any vacancy in the Board of Directors, through death, resignation, disqualification, or other cause deemed sufficient by the Board, the remaining directors, by an affirmative vote of a majority of the entire Board at any duly convened regular meeting, may elect a successor to hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders, at which time a director shall be elected for the remaining unexpired portion of the term of the director whose place shall be vacant.

Section 4.09. COMPENSATION. Directors, as such, shall not receive any stated salary for their services, but, on resolution of the Board, a fixed sum may be allowed for each meeting, regular or special, provided that nothing herein contained shall be construed to preclude any director from serving the corporation in any other capacity and receiving compensation therefor. Members of committees may be allowed such compensation as the Board of Directors may determine for participation in committee assignments. Directors who are also salaried officers of the corporation or any of its subsidiaries shall not be separately compensated for services as directors unless compensation is specifically authorized by the Board.

Section 4.10. COMMITTEES OF DIRECTORS. The Board of Directors may, by resolution passed by a majority of the whole Board, designate one or more committees, each committee to consist of three or more of the directors of the corporation. The Board may designate one or more of the directors as alternate members of any committee, who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of the committee. Any such committee, to the extent provided in the resolution, shall have and may exercise the powers of the Board of Directors in the management of the business and affairs of the corporation, and may authorize the seal of the corporation to be affixed to all papers which may require it; provided, however, that in the absence or disqualification of any member of such committee or committees, the member or members thereof present at any meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether or not they constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the Board of Directors to act at the meeting in the place of any such absent or disqualified member. Such committee or committees shall have such name or names as may be determined from time to time by resolution adopted by the Board of Directors. Each committee shall keep regular minutes of its meetings and report the same to the Board of Directors when required.

Section 4.11. AGREEMENTS IN WRITING. Whenever the vote of directors is required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Board of Directors or of any committee in connection with any corporate action, the meeting and vote may be dispensed with if all of the directors shall agree in writing to such corporate action being taken; and such agreement shall have like effect and validity as though the action were duly taken by the unanimous action of all directors, at a meeting called and legally held.

Section 4.12. TELEPHONE CONFERENCES. One or more directors may participate in a meeting of the Board of Directors or of any committee by means of conference telephone or other electronic communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other. Whenever a vote of the directors is required or permitted in connection with any corporate action, such vote may be taken orally during an electronic conference, and the agreement thus reached shall have like effect and validity as though the action were duly taken by the action of the directors at a meeting for the purpose, if the agreement is reduced to writing and approved by the directors at the next regular meeting of the Board or committee, as the case may be, after the conference.

ARTICLE V

Chairman and Vice-Chairman of the Board

Section 5.01. The Board of Directors may appoint one of its members to be Chairman of the Board and one of its members to be Vice-Chairman of the Board, each to serve at the pleasure of the Board.

Provided, however, that no person shall be so indemnified or reimbursed in relation to any matter in such action, suit or proceeding as to which he or she shall finally be adjudged to have been guilty of or liable for gross negligence, willful misconduct or criminal acts in the performance of his or her duties to the corporation; and provided further that no person shall be so indemnified or reimbursed in relation to any matter in such action, suit, or proceeding which has been made the subject of a compromise settlement except with the approval of a court of competent jurisdiction or the holders of record of a majority of the outstanding shares of the corporation, or the Board of Directors, acting by vote of directors not parties to the same or substantially the same action, suit, or proceeding, constituting a majority of the whole number of directors. The foregoing right of indemnification or reimbursement shall not be exclusive of other rights to which such person, his or her heirs, executors, or administrators, may be entitled as a matter of law.

Annual Report to Shareholders

(FIRST WEST VIRGINIA BANCORP LETTERHEAD)

P.O. Box 6671

Wheeling, WV 26003

TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS:

I am pleased for the opportunity to present you with the financial performance contained in the 2007 Annual Report of First West Virginia Bancorp, Inc. Consolidated net income for 2007 was $2,035,962 or $1.33 per share, as compared to $2,143,824 or $1.40 per share a year earlier. Total assets for the Holding Company decreased .5% over the prior year to $253,186,790 at December 31, 2007 as compared to $254,437,561 at December 31, 2006. Total stockholders’ equity increased 7.7% to $27,214,599 as compared to $25,276,954 reported in 2006. The book value per share was $17.81 at December 31, 2007 as compared to $16.54 a year earlier.

The Board of Directors declared and paid cash dividends of $.76 per share during 2007 and 2006.

This year it is with deep sorrow that I mention the passing of Dale F. Riggs, Director Emeritus of the Company’s subsidiary bank, Progressive Bank, N.A. Mr. Riggs served as a member of the bank’s Board of Directors since 1986. His experience, support, and dedication over the years has left its mark on the growth of our Company and he will be missed.

The year 2007 was very challenging and opportunistic dealing with a sagging economy created by increases in core household expenses outpacing consumer net income. The results affected consumer confidence and rippled throughout our subsidiary banks’ trading areas. The strong, gloomy overcast the subprime lending market has had on the real estate market, in addition to other blighted economic conditions, slowed customer activity in the fourth quarter.

Nevertheless, the Board of Directors is pleased with the decrease in noninterest expenses, Company earnings and other comprehensive income which resulted in an increase in stockholders’ equity as well as a $1.27 increase in our book value per share.

Furthermore, the Board of Directors made significant progress in our strategy to redesign, realign, and redefine all areas of our Company. The Board of Directors appreciates the commitment of our employees and their contributions to the success of our Company, our loyal customers throughout the years, as well as the continued support of our shareholders.

The Board of Directors has redefined our customer base and has a definite aim on our strategies to provide quality products and professional service in all the communities we serve.

Sincerely,

/s/ Sylvan J. Dlesk

Sylvan J. Dlesk

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2007, 2006, AND 2005

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of the significant accounting and reporting policies applied in the presentation of the accompanying financial statements follows.

Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation: First West Virginia Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) is a West Virginia Company. The Company provides a variety of banking services to individuals and businesses through the branch network of its affiliate bank (the “Bank”). The Bank operates nine full service branches located in Wheeling (3), Wellsburg, Moundsville, New Martinsville, Buckhannon, and Weston, West Virginia and Bellaire, Ohio. Primary deposit products consist of checking accounts, savings accounts, and certificates of deposit. Primary lending products consist of commercial and residential real estate loans, consumer loans, and business loans.

Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the financial statements of the parent and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Progressive Bank, N.A. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to material change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses and the valuation of deferred tax assets.

Cash and cash equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and amounts due from banks and federal funds sold.

Investment Securities: Investment securities are classified at the time of purchase, based on management’s intention and ability, as securities available for sale or held to maturity. Debt securities classified as held to maturity are stated at cost adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount which are computed using the interest method and recognized as adjustments of interest income. Certain other debt and equity securities have been classified as available for sale to serve principally as a source of liquidity. Unrealized holding gains and losses for available-for-sale securities are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, net of tax, until realized. Realized securities gains and losses are computed using the specific identification method. Interest and dividends on investment securities are recognized as income when earned.

While temporary changes in the market value of available-for-sale securities are not recognized in earnings, a decline in fair value below amortized cost deemed to be other-than-temporary results in an adjustment to the cost basis of the investment, with a corresponding loss charged against earnings. Management evaluates the investment securities for other-than-temporary declines in estimated fair value on a quarterly basis. This analysis requires management to consider various factors in order to determine if a decline in estimated fair value is temporary or other-than-temporary. These factors include duration and magnitude of the decline in value, the financial condition of the issuer, and the company’s ability and intent to continue holding the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value. At December 31, 2007, there were no investment securities identified by management to be other-than-temporarily impaired. If investments decline in fair value due to adverse changes in the financial markets, charges to income could occur in future periods.

Common stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and Federal Reserve Bank represents ownership interest in institutions that are wholly owned by other financial institutions. These equity securities are accounted for at cost and are classified with other assets.

Loans and Loans Held for Sale: Loans are generally reported at the principal balance outstanding, net of unearned income. Interest income on loans is accrued based on the principal outstanding. It is the Company’s policy to discontinue the accrual of interest when either the principal or interest is past due 90 days or more, unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection. The Company accounts for impaired lo1ans in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 114 and No. 118, “Accounting for Creditors for Impairment of a Loan.” It is the Company’s policy not to recognize interest income on specific impaired loans unless the likelihood of future loss is remote. Interest payments received on such loans are applied as a reduction of the loan principal balance. Loan origination and commitment fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred and the net amount amortized over the contractual life of the related loans or commitments as an adjustment of the related loan’s yield. Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value in the aggregate. There were no loans held for sale as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

The Company has entered into an agreement with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (“FHLB”) under which the bank may sell conforming one-to-four family residential mortgage loans to the FHLB. The agreement provides for a maximum commitment of $5,000,000. Loans sold to the FHLB are sold with limited recourse or credit risk up to a maximum amount of $125,000 based upon utilization of the original commitment. The bank also maintains the servicing of these loans, for which it is paid a servicing fee. The total amount of loans sold under this agreement were $1,981,231 and $1,487,168 as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. These loans which were also subject to recourse obligation or credit risk in the amount of $41,635. The amount of income recognized as of a result of this agreement was $8,848, $10,317 and $1,426 for the years ending December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Allowance for Loan Losses: The allowance for loan losses represents the amount which management estimates is adequate to provide for probable losses inherent in its loan portfolio. The allowance method is used in providing for loan losses. Accordingly, all loan losses are charged to the allowance, and all recoveries are credited to it. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses that is charged to operations. The provision is based on management’s evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses which encompasses the overall risk characteristics of the various portfolio segments, past experience with losses, the impact of economic conditions on borrowers, and other relevant factors. The estimates used in determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, including the amounts and timing of future cash flows expected on impaired loans, are particularly susceptible to significant changes in the near term.

Mortgage loans secured by one-to-four family properties and all consumer loans are large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans and are measured for impairment collectively. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays, which are defined as 90 days or less, generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays on a case-by-case basis taking into consideration all circumstances concerning the loan, the credit worthiness and payment history of the borrower, the length of the payment delay, and the amount of shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.

Impaired loans are commercial and commercial real estate loans for which it is probable the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The Company individually evaluates such loans for impairment and does not aggregate loans by major risk classifications. The definition of “impaired loans” is not the same as the definition of “nonaccrual loans,” although the two categories overlap. The Company may choose to place a loan on nonaccrual status due to payment delinquency or uncertain collectibility while not classifying the loan as impaired, provided the loan is not a commercial or commercial real estate classification. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status and collateral value. The amount of impairment for these types of loans is determined by the difference between the present value of the expected cash flows related to the loan, using the original interest rate, and its recorded value, or as a practical expedient in the case of collateralized loans, the difference between the fair value of the collateral and the recorded amount of the loans. When foreclosure is probable, impairment is measured based on the fair value of the collateral.

Individual loan reviews are based upon specific quantitative and qualitative criteria, including the size of the loan, loan quality ratings, value of collateral, repayment ability of borrowers, and historical experience factors. The historical experience factors utilized for individual loan reviews are based upon past loss experience, known trends in losses and delinquencies, the growth of loans in particular markets and industries, and known changes in economic conditions in the particular lending markets. Allowances for homogeneous loans (such as residential mortgage loans, personal loans, etc.) are evaluated based upon historical loss experience, trends in losses and delinquencies, growth of loans in particular markets, and known changes in economic conditions in each lending market. There can be no assurance the allowance for loan losses will be adequate to cover all losses, but management believes the allowance for loan losses in the amount of $2,042,997 at December 31, 2007, was adequate to provide for probable losses from existing loans based on information currently available. While management uses available information to provide for loan losses, the ultimate collectibility of a substantial portion of the loan portfolio, and the need for future additions to the allowance, will be based on changes in economic conditions and other relevant factors. As such, an adverse change in economic activity could reduce cash flows for both commercial and individual borrowers, which would likely cause the Company to experience increases in problem assets, delinquencies and losses on loans.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Goodwill resulted from the Company’s purchase of a less-than-whole financial institution (the “branch”). The goodwill value of $1.6 million is supported ultimately by revenue that is driven by the volume of business transacted. A decline in earnings as a result of a lack of growth or the inability to deliver cost effective services over sustained periods can lead to impairment of goodwill that could adversely impact earnings in future periods.

An identifiable intangible asset resulted from the purchase of the core deposits of another financial institution in 2001 and, as such, are amortized into noninterest expense on the straight-line basis over the period the Company expects to benefit from such assets (7 years). The Company recognized amortization expense of $88,751 in the periods ending December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005. The unamortized balance from the purchase of these core deposit intangible assets is $14,792 and $103,543 at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The estimated amortization expense in 2008 is $14,792. While management feels the assumptions and variables used to value the acquisition were reasonable, the use of different, but still reasonable, assumptions could produce different results.

Goodwill and other intangibles are periodically reviewed for impairment. No impairment losses were recognized. Additionally, future events could cause management to conclude that impairment indicators exist and that the goodwill is impaired, which would result in the Company recording an impairment loss. Any resulting impairment loss could have a material, adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

Premises and Equipment: Premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Provisions for depreciation and amortization are computed generally using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. When units of property are disposed of, the premises and equipment accounts are relieved of the cost and the accumulated depreciation related to such units. Any resulting gains or losses are credited to or charged against income. Cost of repairs and maintenance is charged to expense as incurred. Additions and improvements are capitalized at cost.

Other Real Estate Owned: Other real estate owned are carried at the lower of cost or their estimated current fair value, less estimated costs to sell and are included in other assets. Other real estate owned consist primarily of properties acquired through, or in lieu of foreclosures. Any subsequent declines in fair value, and gains or losses on the disposition of these assets are credited to or charged against income.

Bank-owned Life Insurance: Bank owned life insurance consists of investments in life insurance policies on executive officers and other members of the bank’s management. The policies are carried at their net cash surrender value. Changes in the policy value are recorded as an adjustment to the carrying value with the corresponding amount recognized as non-interest income or expense. Earnings on these policies are based on the net earnings on the cash surrender value of the policies. The net cash surrender value of bank-owned life insurance was $3,429,560 and $3,307,711 at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The face value of the bank-owned life insurance at December 31, 2007 was $9.4 million. An agreement has been executed with all officers whereby a $40,000 death benefit is payable upon the participant’s death while employed by the Company to their designated beneficiary.

Income Taxes: The Company and its subsidiary file a consolidated federal income tax return. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes. Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the deferred tax asset or liability from period to period.

Advertising Costs: Advertising costs are expensed as the costs are incurred. Advertising expenses amounted to $258,861, $165,706 and $133,403 for 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively.

Earnings Per Common Share: Earnings per common share are calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. The Company has no securities which would be considered potential common stock.

Comprehensive Income: The Company is required to present comprehensive income in a full set of general-purpose financial statements for all periods presented. Other comprehensive income comprises unrealized holding gains (losses) on the available-for-sale securities portfolio. The Company has elected to report the effects of other comprehensive income as part of the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements: In December 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (“FAS 141(R)”), which establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in an acquiree, including the recognition and measurement of goodwill acquired in a business combination. FAS No. 141(R) is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company’s results of operations.

In September 2006, the FASB issued FAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which provides enhanced guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. The standard applies whenever other standards require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. The Standard does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. FAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

In September 2006, the FASB issued FAS No. 158, Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Post Retirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R)). This Statement requires that employers measure plan assets and obligations as of the balance sheet date. This requirement is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. The other provisions of the Statement were effective as of the end of the fiscal year ending after December 15, 2006, for public companies. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

In February 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115, which provides all entities with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. The objective of the FAS No. 159 is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply the complex provisions of hedge accounting. FAS No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007 provided the entity also elects to apply the provisions of FAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

In December 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an amendment of ARB No. 51 FAS No. 160 amends ARB No. 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary, which is sometimes referred to as minority interest, is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. Among other requirements, this statement requires consolidated net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the noncontrolling interest. It also requires disclosure, on the face of the consolidated income statement, of the amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest. FAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)

In September 2006, the FASB reached consensus on the guidance provided by Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 06-4 (“EITF 06-4”), Accounting for Deferred Compensation and Postretirement Benefit Aspects of Endorsement Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements. The guidance is applicable to endorsement split-dollar life insurance arrangements, whereby the employer owns and controls the insurance policy, that are associated with a postretirement benefit. EITF 06-4 requires that for a split-dollar life insurance arrangement within the scope of the Issue, an employer should recognize a liability for future benefits in accordance with FAS No. 106 (if, in substance, a postretirement benefit plan exists) or Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 12 (if the arrangement is, in substance, an individual deferred compensation contract) based on the substantive agreement with the employee. EITF 06-4 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. The adoption of this EITF is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

In March 2007, the FASB ratified Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 06-10 (“EITF 06-10”), Accounting for Collateral Assignment Split-Dollar Life Insurance Agreements. EITF 06-10 provides guidance for determining a liability for the postretirement benefit obligation as well as recognition and measurement of the associated asset on the basis of the terms of the collateral assignment agreement. EITF 06-10 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. The adoption of this EITF is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

In June 2007, the FASB ratified Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 06-11 (“EITF 06-11”), Accounting for Income Tax Benefits of Dividends on Share-Based Payment Awards. EITF 06-11 applies to share-based payment arrangements with dividend protection features that entitle employees to receive (a) dividends on equity-classified nonvested shares, (b) dividend equivalents on equity-classified nonvested share units, or (c) payments equal to the dividends paid on the underlying shares while an equity-classified share option is outstanding, when those dividends or dividend equivalents are charged to retained earnings under FAS No. 123R, Share-Based Payment, and result in an income tax deduction for the employer. A consensus was reached that a realized income tax benefit from dividends or dividend equivalents that are charged to retained earnings and are paid to employees for equity-classified nonvested equity shares, nonvested equity share units, and outstanding equity share options should be recognized as an increase in additional paid-in capital. EITF 06-11 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this EITF is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT SECURITIES (CONTINUED)

The Company’s investment securities portfolio contains unrealized losses of direct obligations of the U.S. Treasury and U.S. Government agency securities, including mortgage-related instruments issued or backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government or are generally viewed as having the implied guarantee of the U.S. government, and debt obligations of a U.S. state or political subdivision.

On a monthly basis, the Company evaluates the severity and duration of impairment for its investment securities portfolio unless the company has the ability to hold the security to maturity without incurring a loss. Generally, impairment is considered other than temporary when an investment security has sustained a decline in market value of ten percent or more for a period of six months. The Company has concluded that any impairment of its investment securities portfolio is not other than temporary but is the result of interest rate changes that are not expected to result in the noncollection of principal and interest during the period. There are 86 positions that are temporarily impaired at December 31, 2007.

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of investment securities at December 31, 2007, by contractual maturity, are shown below. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

NOTE 8 - FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK BORROWINGS

The subsidiary Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (“FHLB”). The FHLB borrowings are secured by a blanket lien by the FHLB on certain residential real estate loans or securities with a market value at least equal to the outstanding balances. The remaining maximum borrowing capacity with the FHLB at December 31, 2007 was approximately $79.7 million subject to the purchase of additional FHLB stock. The subsidiary bank had FHLB borrowings of $9,298,492 and $2,342,718 at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The increase in FHLB borrowings was due to the addition of two fixed rate bullet advances which totaled $7,000,000 during the second quarter of 2007. These advances carry an average interest rate of 5.08% and will mature in 2009 and 2010. The subsidiary bank also has two fixed rate amortizing advances with a weighted average interest rate of 4.76% which will mature in 2018.

The subsidiary bank also has a one year line of credit agreement with the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”). The maximum credit available under this agreement is $7.0 million and expires December 2011. There were no borrowings outstanding under this agreement at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Contractual maturities of FHLB borrowings as of December 31, 2007 were as follows:

December 31, 2008	$	46,378
December 31, 2009		3,548,634
December 31, 2010		3,550,999
December 31, 2011		53,481
December 31, 2012		56,082
Thereafter		2,042,918
	$	9,298,492

NOTE 9 - OTHER BORROWINGS

The Company has a non-revolving line of credit of $3.0 million from a financial institution. The line of credit is secured by 126,200 shares of Progressive Bank, N.A. stock. The note bears an interest rate of prime and is adjustable quarterly. The note matures in May 2015. The Company’s initial borrowing under the loan amounted to $2.0 million. There were no outstanding borrowings as of December 31, 2007 and as of December 31, 2006.

NOTE 10 - CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

Most of the affiliate Bank’s loans and commitments have been granted to customers in the Bank’s primary market area of Northern and Central West Virginia, Eastern Ohio, and Southwestern Pennsylvania. In the normal course of business, however, the Bank has purchased participations and originated loans outside of its primary market area. The aggregate loan balances outstanding in any one geographic area, other than the Bank’s primary lending areas, do not exceed 10 percent of total loans. Concentrations of credit are measured by categorizing loans by the North American Industry Classification codes. Loans equal to or exceeding 25% of Tier I Capital are considered concentrations of credit. At December 31, 2007 concentrations of credit were as follows:

	Amount		Percent of Tier 1 Capital
Lessors of Residential Buildings and Dwellings	$	14,397,619	57.9	%
Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings		9,812,207	39.5	%

NOTE 11 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Directors and officers of the Company and its subsidiary, and their associates, were customers of, and had other transactions with the subsidiary bank in the normal course of business. All loans and commitments included in such transactions were made on substantially the same terms, including interest and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other persons and do not involve more than the normal risk of collectibility. Such loans totaled $2,745,649 at December 31, 2007, and $1,592,083 at December 31, 2006.

The following is an analysis of loan activity to directors, executive officers, and associates of the Company and its subsidiary:

	December 31,
	2007			2006
Balance, January 1	$	1,592,083		$	3,394,123

Repayments during the period		(971,337	)		(2,279,140	)
Ending balance	$	2,745,649		$	1,592,083

The Company’s subsidiary bank entered into a lease agreement to rent property for use as banking premises from a company owned by one of the Company’s directors. The lease was for an initial 5 year term at an annual rental fee of $57,600, This lease was renewed in 2007 for an additional 5-year term at an annual rental fee of $60,480 and has options to renew for seven 5-year terms.

NOTE 12 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The subsidiary Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of their customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet. The contract amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments.

The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

The following represents financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk:

	2007		2006
Commitments to extend credit	$	14,219,000	$	16,174,000
Standby letters of credit		116,000		94,000

As of December 31, 2007, approximately $6,343,000 are fixed interest rate commitments and $7,992,000 are variable interest rate commitments.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, and income-producing commercial properties.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. The standby letters of credit in the amount of $31,000 expire in 2008, $15,000 in 2012 and $70,000 in 2015. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers.

The Company and its subsidiary are parties to various legal and administrative proceedings and claims. Although any litigation contains an element of uncertainty, management believes that the outcome of these events will not have a material effect on the financial position of the Company.

NOTE 13 - LEASES

The Company’s Bank affiliates leased certain land used for banking purposes under long-term leases, expiring at various dates. These leases contain renewal options and generally provide that the Company will pay for insurance, taxes, and maintenance.

As of December 31, 2007, the future minimum rental payments required under noncancelable operating leases with initial terms in excess of one year are as follows:

December 31, 2008	$	159,323
December 31, 2009		106,640
December 31, 2010		106,640
December 31, 2011		106,640
December 31, 2012		51,200
Thereafter		23,080

Rental expense under operating leases approximated $190,509 in 2007; $212,711 in 2006; and $214,092 in 2005.

NOTE 14 - EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

The Company has a non-contributory profit sharing plan for employees meeting certain service requirements. The Company makes annual contributions to the profit sharing plan based on income of the Company as defined. Total expenses for the plan were $92,700, $102,500, and $98,070 for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively.

The Company also offers a 401(k) plan in which it matches a portion of the employee’s contribution up to 4 percent of their salary. The expense related to the 401(k) plan was $22,365, $22,494, and $23,726 in 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively.

NOTE 19 - REGULATORY MATTERS

The Company’s subsidiary bank entered into a Formal Agreement with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) in December 2004. The Formal Agreement contained certain required actions and certain restrictions. This agreement was terminated by the OCC on December 13, 2006. The Company also adopted a resolution with the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland, under authority given it by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the federal regulatory agency for the Company. As with the agreement of the OCC, the Federal Reserve resolution necessitated certain actions and restrictions. Without prior Federal Reserve approval and a 30 day prior notice requirement, the resolution prohibited the Company from paying dividends, incurring debt, or participating in the acquisition of treasury stock. In addition, prior written approval is required before engaging in any non-bank activities. The resolution was terminated by the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland effective as of January 30, 2007.

The Company and its subsidiary bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company’s and bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company’s and bank’s capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk, weighting, and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier I capital (as defined) to adjusted total assets (as defined).

As of December 31, 2007, the most recent notifications from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency categorized the bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes has changed the capital category. The capital ratios of the Company and its subsidiary bank, along with the regulatory framework for adequately capitalized and well capitalized institutions are depicted as set forth in the following table:

(Amounts Expressed in Thousands)	Actual				For Capital Adequacy Purposes				To be Well Capitalized under Prompt Corrective Action Provisions

DECEMBER 31, 2007, 2006, AND 2005

NOTE 20 - DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The reported fair values of financial instruments are based on a variety of factors. Where possible, fair values represent quoted market prices for identical or comparable instruments. In other cases, fair values have been estimated based on assumptions concerning the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows and assumed discount rates reflecting varying degrees of risk. Intangible values assigned to customer relationships are not reflected in the reported fair values. Accordingly, the fair values may not represent actual values of the financial instruments that could have been realized as of year end or that will be realized in the future.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

Cash and Cash Equivalents: The carrying amount for cash and cash equivalents is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Investment Securities: Fair values for investment securities are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments.

Loans: Fair values for net loans are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics. Loans are segregated by type such as commercial, real estate, and consumer. Each loan category is further segmented into fixed and adjustable rate interest terms and by performing and non-performing categories. The fair value is calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through the estimated maturity using estimated discount rates which reflect credit and interest rate risks inherent to the loan.

Bank Owned Life Insurance: The carrying amount of of bank owned life insurance represents the cash surrender value of the underlying insurance policies, if such policies were terminated. Management believes that the carrying amount approximates the fair value.

Accrued interest receivable: The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable approximates its fair value.

Deposits: The carrying amount for noninterest bearing and interest bearing demand deposits and savings deposits is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value. Fair values for time deposits are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis. Discount rates reflect rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Federal Funds Purchased and Repurchase Agreements: The carrying amount for federal funds purchased and repurchase agreements are considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Federal Home Loan Bank and other long term borrowings: The fair value of FHLB and other long term borrowings is based on the interest rates currently charged for borrowings with similar terms and maturities.

Accrued Interest Payable: The carrying amount of accrued interest payable approximates it fair value.

Off-Balance-Sheet Instruments: The fair value of commitments is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. The amount of fees currently charged on commitments is determined to be insignificant and, therefore, the carrying value and fair value of off-balance-sheet instruments are not shown.

The estimates of fair values of financial instruments are summarized as follows at December 31:

(Amounts Expressed in Thousands)	2007				2006

Management’s Responsibility For Financial Statements

The Company’s consolidated financial statements and the related information appearing in this Annual Report were prepared by management in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and where appropriate reflect management’s best estimates and judgment. The financial statements and the information related to those statements contained in the Annual Report are the responsibility of management.

The accounting systems of the Company include internal accounting controls which safeguard the Company’s assets from material loss or misuse and ensure that transactions are properly authorized and recorded in its financial records, and designed to provide reasonable assurance as to the integrity and reliability of the financial records. There are inherent limitations in all systems of internal control based on the recognition that the cost of such systems should not exceed the benefits to be derived. The accounting system and related controls are reviewed by a program of internal audits performed by the internal auditor and independent auditors.

Our independent auditors are responsible for auditing the Company’s financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and to provide an objective, independent review of the fairness of reported operating results and financial position of the Company.

The Company’s internal auditor and independent auditors have direct access to the Audit committee of the Board of Directors. This committee meets periodically with the internal auditor, the independent auditors, and management to ensure the financial accounting and audit process is properly conducted.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors

First West Virginia Bancorp, Inc.

Wheeling, West Virginia

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of First West Virginia Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiary as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of First West Virginia Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiary as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of its operations, and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We were not engaged to examine management’s assertion about the effectiveness of First West Virginia Bancorp, Inc’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, which is included in Form 10-K and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion thereon.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of the Financial Condition and Results of Holding Company Operations

Forward-Looking Information: Certain information contained in this report, which are not historical facts, may be forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. These statements are subject to important factors that could cause action results to differ materially from those contemplated by such statements, including without limitation, the effect of changing economic conditions, changes in interest rates, changes in lending activities, changes in state and federal regulations, and other external factors which may materially impact the Company’s operational and financial performance.

Critical Accounting Policies: The Company’s accounting policies are integral to understanding the results reported. The accounting policies are described in detail in Note 1 of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Our most complex accounting policies require management’s judgment to ascertain the valuation of assets, liabilities, commitments and contingencies. Detailed policies and control procedures have been established and are intended to ensure valuation methods are well controlled and applied consistently from period to period. In addition, the policies and procedures are intended to ensure that the process for changing methodologies occurs in an appropriate manner. The following is a brief description of our current accounting policies involving significant management valuation judgments.

Other Than Temporary Impairment of Equity Securities: Equity securities are evaluated periodically to determine whether a decline in their value is other than temporary. Management utilizes criteria such as the magnitude and duration of the decline, in addition to the reasons underlying the decline, to determine whether the loss in value is other than temporary. The term “other than temporary” is not intended to indicate that the decline is permanent. It indicates that the prospects for a near term recovery of value are not necessarily favorable, or that there is a lack of evidence to support fair values equal to, or greater than, the carrying value of the investment. Once a decline in value is determined to be other than temporary, the value of the security is reduced and a corresponding charge to earnings is recognized.

Allowance for Loan Losses: Arriving at an appropriate level of allowance for loan losses involves a high degree of judgment. The Company’s allowance for loan losses provides for probable losses based upon evaluations of known, and inherent risks in the loan portfolio. Management uses historical information to assess the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses as well as the prevailing business environment; as it is affected by changing economic conditions and various external factors, which may impact the portfolio in ways currently unforeseen. The allowance is increased by provisions for loan losses and by recoveries of loans previously charged-off and reduced by loans charged-off. For a full discussion of the Company’s methodology of assessing the adequacy of the reserve for loan losses, refer to Note 1 of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets: As discussed in Note 1 of the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company must assess goodwill and other intangible assets each year for impairment. This assessment involves estimating cash flows for future periods. If the future cash flows were less than the recorded goodwill and other intangible assets balances, we would be required to take a charge against earnings to write down the assets to the lower value.

Deferred Tax Assets: The Company uses an estimate of future earnings to support its position that the benefit of the deferred tax assets will be realized. If future income should prove non-existent or less than the amount of the deferred tax assets within the tax years to which they may be applied, the asset may not be realized and our net income will be reduced. The deferred tax assets are described further in Note 1 of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

OVERVIEW

Following is a discussion and analysis of the significant changes in the financial condition and results of operations of First West Virginia Bancorp, Inc., (the Company), and its subsidiary for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes, thereto.

The Company reported net income of $2,035,962 or $1.33 per share for the year ended December 31, 2007 as compared to $2,143,824 or $1.40 per share for the year ended December 31, 2006. The decline in net income during 2007 over 2006 of $107,862 or 5.0% was primarily the result of a decline in net interest income and noninterest income offset in part by the decrease in noninterest expenses and decrease in the provision for loan losses. During 2007 as compared to 2006, net interest income fell primarily due to an increase in the interest paid on interest bearing liabilities combined with a decline in the interest earned on loans, offset in part by an increase in the interest earned on investment securities. Noninterest expenses fell $341,783 or 4.5% in 2007 over 2006 and was primarily due to decreased salary and employee benefit costs which were combined with declines in occupancy expenses and in other operating expenses. Noninterest income declined $22,661 or 1.6% and was primarily attributable to the decline in the gains on sales of investment securities, offset in part by the increase in service charges and other fee income combined with the increase in other operating income. A negative provision for loan losses in the amount of $100,000 was recorded during 2007 to reduce the allowance for loan losses based upon the decline in specific reserves required on nonperforming assets and the overall improvement in the performance of the loan portfolio. There was no provision made to the allowance for loan losses during 2006. The return on average assets was .80% as of December 31, 2007 compared to .82% in 2006. The return on average equity was 7.76% at December 31, 2007 compared to 8.44% in 2006. The Board of Directors declared and paid cash dividends of $.76 per share during 2007.

Table One is a summary of Selected Financial Data of the Company. The sections that follow discuss in more detail the information summarized in Table One.

Table Two - Average Balance Sheets and Interest Rate Analysis

The following table presents an average balance sheet, interest earned on interest bearing assets, interest paid on interest bearing liabilities, average interest rates and interest differentials for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005. Average balance sheet information as of December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005 was compiled using the daily average balance sheet. Total loans are gross of the allowance for loan losses, net of unearned income and include loans held for sale. Non-accrual loans were included in the average balance computations; however, no interest was included in income subsequent to the non-accrual status classification. Loan fees and unearned discounts were included in income for average rate calculation purposes. Average yields on investment securities available for sale have been calculated based on amortized cost.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of the Financial Condition and Results of Holding Company Operations

EARNINGS ANALYSIS

Net Interest Income

Net interest income, which is the difference between interest earned on loans and investments and interest paid on deposits and other liabilities, is the primary source of earnings for the Company. Changes in the volume and mix of earning assets and interest bearing liabilities combined with changes in market rates of interest greatly effect net interest income. Tables Two and Three analyze the changes in net interest income for the three years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005.

Net interest income decreased $552,315 or 6.3% in 2007 compared to 2006, and follows a decrease in 2006 of $228,445 or 2.5% from 2005. During 2007, the decrease in net interest income was primarily due to a decline in the interest earned on loans combined with the increase in the interest paid on interest bearing liabilities, offset in part by an increase in the interest earned on investment securities. The decrease in net interest income in 2006 was primarily due to the decline in the interest earned on loans combined with the increase in the interest paid on interest bearing liabilities, offset in part by an increase in the interest earned on investment securities. The changes in the volume and mix of earning assets and interest bearing liabilities combined with the changes in the market rates of interest resulted in taxable equivalent net interest yields on average earning assets of 3.88% for 2007, as compared to 3.93% and 3.89% earned during 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Interest and fees on loans decreased $429,617 or 4.9% from 2006 to 2007, after decreasing $505,268 or 5.5% from 2005 to 2006. Interest and fees on loans declined in 2007 as compared to 2006 primarily due to the decline in the average volume of loans which was partially offset by an increase in the yield earned on the loan portfolio. The average loan volume decreased $9.6 million or 7.4% in 2007 as compared to 2006 after declining $14.5 million or 10.1% in 2006 as compared to 2005. During 2007, the decline in loan volume was primarily due to loan payoffs and the decreased demand for quality loans combined with the increased competition from other financial institutions and lending companies. The taxable equivalent yield on loans rose 21 basis points in 2007, from 6.99% in 2006 to 7.20% in 2007, after rising 32 basis points in 2006, from 6.67% in 2005 to 6.99% in 2006.

Interest income on investment securities in 2007 increased $361,519 or 7.8% over 2006, and follows an increase of $972,372 or 26.4% over 2005. The increase in the interest rates earned on investment securities which was partially offset by a decrease in the average volume of investment securities contributed to the increase in interest income on investment securities. The taxable equivalent yield on investment securities rose 37 basis points in 2007, from 4.73% in 2006 to 5.10% in 2007, and follows an increase in 2006 of 74 basis points, from 3.99% in 2005 to 4.73% in 2006. The activity of the investment securities portfolio decreased with the average volume decreasing $.3 million or .2% in 2007 as compared to 2006, and follows an increase of $6.7 million or 6.5% in 2006 as compared to 2005. In 2006, the increase in the average volume of investment securities combined with the increase in the interest rates earned contributed to the increase in interest earned on investment securities.

Interest expense in 2007 increased $489,038 or 9.9% from 2006, compared to an increase of $871,961 or 21.4% from 2005. In 2007, the rise in interest expense was primarily due to increases in the average volume and the average yield on time deposits combined with the increase in the average yield on interest bearing demand deposits and the increases in the average volume of Federal Home Loan Bank and other long term borrowings, offset in part by decreases in the average volume and average yield of savings deposits, and decreases in the average volume of federal funds purchased and repurchase agreements and the decrease in the average yield on Federal Home Loan Bank and other long term borrowings. In 2006, the rise in interest expense was primarily due to an increase in the average rates paid on interest bearing liabilities. During 2006, the rates paid on interest bearing liabilities rose primarily due to the rise in interest rates paid on deposit products to meet competitive market pressures in a higher interest rate environment and due to a change in the deposit mix from savings deposits to certificates of deposit as a result of customers seeking higher yielding deposit products. The average yield paid on interest bearing liabilities during 2007 increased 36 basis points, from 2.33% in 2006 to 2.69% in 2007, and follows an increase in 2006 of 47 basis points, from 1.86% in 2005 to 2.33% in 2006. The average volume of interest bearing liabilities declined $9.7 million or 4.6% in 2007 compared to 2006, after decreasing $6.5 million or 3.0% in 2006 as compared to 2005.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income is comprised of service charges, investment securities gains and losses, and other operating income. Noninterest income decreased $22,661 or 1.6%, in 2007 as compared to an increase of $55,436 or 4.0% in 2006. The decrease in noninterest income in 2007 as compared to 2006 was primarily due to a decrease in gains (losses) on sales of investment securities which was offset in part by increases in service charges and other fee income and other operating income. In 2006, noninterest income primarily increased due to an increase in service charges and other fee income which was offset in part by declines in the gains on sales of investment securities and other operating income.

Service charges and other fees represent the major component of noninterest income. These charges are earned from assessments made on checking and savings accounts. Service charges increased $15,672 in 2007, up 1.7%, from 2006, as compared to an increase of 18.0% from 2005 to 2006. The increases in service charges for 2007 and 2006 primarily resulted from increases in overdraft fees assessed on deposit accounts.

Sales of investment securities by the subsidiary bank are generally limited to the needs established under the liquidity policies. Net gains (losses) on sales of investment securities decreased $67,923 or 148.7% in 2007 as compared to 2006. The decline in net gains (losses) on sales of investment securities was primarily attributable to sales of securities available for sale recorded by the Company and its subsidiary bank. During 2007, the Company accounted for securities gains of $39,762 and securities losses of $62,017 which were attributable to sales of securities available for sale. In 2006, the Company and its subsidiary bank accounted for securities gains of $67,074 and securities losses of $21,406 which were attributable to sales of securities available for sale. During 2005, securities gains of $144,770 and securities losses of $26,337 which were sales of securities available for sale were recorded by the Company and its subsidiary bank.

Table Three - Rate Volume Analysis of Changes in Interest Income and Expense

The effect on interest income and interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 due to changes in average volume and rate from the prior year, is presented below. The effect of a change in average volume has been determined by applying the average rate to the change in volume. The change in rate has been determined by applying the average volume in the earlier year by the change in rate. The change in interest due to both rate and volume has been allocated to volume and rate changes in proportion to the relationship of the absolute dollar amounts of change in each.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of the Financial Condition and Results of Holding Company Operations

Noninterest Income - Continued

Other operating income represents fees from safe deposit box rentals, sales of checkbooks, sales of cashiers’ checks and money orders, utility collections, ATM charges and card fees, credit life commissions, credit card fees and commissions, income earned on bank owned life insurance and various other charges and fees related to normal customer banking relationships. Other operating income increased $29,590 or 6.3% in 2007 as compared to 2006. During 2007, the increase in other operating income was primarily due to an increase in ATM fees, nonrecurring gains on sales of assets, an increase in the earnings related to the cash surrender value of the bank owned life insurance on its key officers, and increased credit life commissions and other miscellaneous income, offset in part by declines in checkbook sales, credit card fees and in the income earned on loans sold to the FHLB. Other operating income decreased $11,102 or 2.3% in 2006 as compared to 2005. During 2006, the decline in other operating income was primarily due to a reduction in nonrecurring gains on sales of assets and other miscellaneous income, offset in part by increases in ATM fees and income earned on loans sold to the FHLB.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expenses are comprised of salaries and employee benefits, net occupancy of premises and other operating expenses. In 2007, noninterest expenses decreased $341,783 or 4.5% over 2006, and follows an increase of $162,602 or 2.2% in 2006 over 2005. The decrease in noninterest expenses in 2007 over 2006 was primarily due to declines in salary and employee benefits, other operating expenses and in net occupancy expenses. The increase in noninterest expense in 2006 as compared to 2005 was primarily due to increases in salary and employee benefits which were offset in part by a decline in other operating expenses.

Salary and employee benefits represent the largest component of noninterest expense. Salary and employee benefits decreased $218,104 or 5.4% in 2007 over 2006. The decrease in salary and employee benefits expense in 2007 was primarily attributable to the decline in deferred compensation expenses, the decrease in uniform costs for bank personnel, the decrease in the annual contribution to the profit sharing plan combined with a reduction in personnel expenses due to a decrease in the number of full-time equivalent employees, partially offset by an normal annual merit adjustments. During 2006, salary and employee benefits increased $282,581 or 7.5% as compared to the same period in 2005. The increase in salary and employee benefit expense in 2006 was primarily due to the full year impact of hiring of additional personnel for lending development and operations, salary adjustments for key officers, the purchase of uniforms for bank personnel and normal annual merit adjustments.

The major components of other operating expenses include: stationery and supplies, directors’ fees, service expense, postage and transportation, other taxes, advertising, and regulatory assessments and deposit insurance. Other operating expense decreased $95,190 or 3.9%, compared to the same period of the prior year. The decrease in other operating expense was primarily due a reduction in service expenses, directors fees, postage and transportation expense, other taxes, regulatory assessments, and stationery and supplies expense, offset in part by an increase in advertising and other expenses. During 2006, other operating expense decreased $120,592, or 4.7%, over 2005 and was primarily due to a reduction in service expenses, directors fees, postage and transportation expense and in other expenses, offset in part by increases in other taxes, advertising, regulatory assessments, and stationery and supplies expense.

Occupancy expenses decreased $28,489 or 2.5% in 2007 over 2006, and follows a increase of $613 or .1% in 2006 over 2005. Occupancy expenses decreased primarily due to the closure of the supermarket branch office located in Moundsville, West Virginia during the second quarter of 2007.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense for the period ended December 31, 2007 was $479,268, a decrease of $25,331 or 5.0% over 2006 as compared to the decrease of $37,170 or 6.9% from 2005 to 2006. The decrease in pre-taxable income combined with the increase in tax exempt income primarily contributed to the reduction in income tax expense in 2007 and 2006.

For federal income tax purposes, tax-exempt income is based on qualified state, county, and municipal bonds and loans. Tax-exempt income was $1,425,577 in 2007; $1,357,813 in 2006; and $1,287,153 in 2005. The state of West Virginia recognizes tax-exempt income based on the average of certain investments and loans held during the tax reporting period. Nontaxable items included are federal obligations and securities, obligations of West Virginia and West Virginia political subdivisions, investments of loans primarily secured by liens or security agreements on residential property and other real estate in the form of a mobile home, modular home or double-wide located in West Virginia. Nontaxable West Virginia income attributable to the foregoing items was approximately $1,231,000 in 2007; $1,113,000 in 2006; and $1,271,000 in 2005.

Components of the income tax expense for December 31, 2007 were $376,938 for federal taxes and $102,330 for West Virginia corporate net income taxes. Federal income tax rates and West Virginia corporate net income tax rates were consistent at 34% and 9%, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005. Additional information regarding income taxes is contained in Note 15 to the Consolidated financial statements.

BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS

Investments

Investment securities decreased $4,247,180 or 3.8% from 2006, and followed an increase in 2006 of $2,895,810 or 2.7% from 2005. The investment portfolio is managed to attempt to achieve an optimum mix of asset quality, liquidity and maximum yield on investment. The investment portfolio consists of U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. Government agency and corporation securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions, mortgage-backed securities and equity securities. Taxable securities comprised 79.5% of total securities at December 31, 2007, as compared to 80.0% at December 31, 2006. Other than the normal risks inherent in purchasing U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. Government agency and corporation securities, and obligations of states and political subdivisions, i.e., interest rate risk, management has no knowledge of other market or credit risk involved in these investments. The Company does not have any high risk hybrid/derivative instruments.

Investment securities that are classified available for sale are available for sale at any time based upon management’s assessment of changes in economic or financial market conditions. These securities are carried at fair value and the unrealized holding gains and losses, net of taxes, are reflected as a separate component of stockholders’ equity until realized. Available for sale securities, at fair value decreased $3,938,261 or 3.6% from 2006, and represented 99% of the investment portfolio at December 31, 2007. The decrease in the available for sale securities was primarily due to the maturities, calls and sales of the U.S. Treasury and other U.S. government agency securities. Investment securities held to maturity are securities purchased with the intent and ability to hold until their maturity. Securities classified as held to maturity are carried at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. The held to maturity securities decreased $308,919 or 31.8% from 2006 and represented 1% of the investment portfolio as of December 31, 2007. The decrease in the held to maturity securities was primarily the result of maturities and calls of tax exempt municipal securities. As the investment portfolio consists primarily of fixed rate debt securities, changes in the market rates of interest will affect the carrying value of securities available for sale, adjusted upward or downward under the requirements of FAS 115 and represent temporary adjustments in value. The carrying values of securities available for sale was above book value by $598,473 and was below book value by $1,106,350 at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The fair value of securities classified as held to maturity was above book value by $11,668 and $16,386 at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Table Four - Investment Portfolio

The maturity distribution using book value including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums and approximate yield of investment securities at December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006 are presented in the following table. Tax equivalent yield basis was used on tax exempt obligations. Approximate yield was calculated using a weighted average of yield to maturities.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of the Financial Condition and Results of Holding Company Operations

Loans

Loans represent the largest asset on the Company’s balance sheet. Total loans, net of unearned income, increased $1,029,873 or .9% from 2006 to 2007. The increase in total loans in 2007 was primarily due to increases in residential real estate loans and other loans which increased approximately $3,352,000 and $411,000, respectively, offset by decreases in commercial loans and installment loans which decreased approximately $2,100,000 and $612,000, respectively. The increase in residential real estate loans during 2007 was primarily in loans secured by multi-family residential properties and the increased demand for closed end loans secured by one to four family residential properties. The decline in commercial loans was primarily in commercial real estate loans due to increased competition from other lending companies and financial institutions, as well as the local economic slow-down for new financing due to the increased prime lending rate. From 2005 to 2006, total loans decreased $14,504,938 or 10.7%. The decline in loan volume in 2006 was primarily due to decreases in commercial loans, installment loans, residential real estate loans and other loans which decreased approximately $7,979,000, $3,175,000, $1,864,000 and $1,513,000, respectively. The decrease in loans in 2006 was primarily attributed to a decreased demand for quality commercial loans as a result of increased competition from other lending companies and institutions, as well as the rise in the prime lending rate.

Real estate residential loans which include real estate construction, real estate farmland, real estate residential loans and multi-family residential properties comprised thirty-eight percent (38%) of the loan portfolio. Commercial loans which include real estate secured by non-farm, non-residential properties and commercial and industrial loans comprised forty-one percent (41%) of the loan portfolio. Installment loans comprised eleven percent (11%) of the loan portfolio. Other loans which include non-rated industrial development obligations, direct financing leases and other loans comprised ten percent (10%) of the loan portfolio. The changes in the composition of the loan portfolio from 2006 to 2007 were a 2% increase in real estate residential loans and a 2% decrease in commercial loans. From 2005 to 2006, the changes in the composition of the loan portfolio were a 3% increase in real estate residential loans, a 2% decrease in commercial loans and a 1% decrease in installment loans.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of the Financial Condition and Results of Holding Company Operations

Loans Held for Sale

The Company has entered into an agreement with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (“FHLB”) under which the bank may sell conforming one-to-four family residential mortgage loans to the FHLB. The agreement provides for a maximum commitment of $5,000,000. Loans sold to the FHLB are sold with limited recourse or credit risk up to a maximum amount of $125,000 based upon utilization of the original commitment. The bank also maintains the servicing of these loans, for which it is paid a servicing fee. The total amount of loans sold under this agreement is $1,981,231 and $1,487,168 as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The loans which were sold were also subject to a recourse obligation or credit risk in the amount of $41,635 and $31,385 at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Non-performing Loans

Non-performing assets include non-accrual loans on which the collectibility of the full amount of interest is uncertain; loans which have been renegotiated to provide for a reduction or deferral of interest on principal because of a deterioration in the financial position of the borrower; loans past due ninety days or more as to principal or interest; and other real estate owned. A five-year summary of nonperforming assets is presented in Table Six.

Total non-performing loans were $2,463,000 at December 31, 2007 as compared to $3,383,000 at December 31, 2006. Non-performing loans declined $920,000 in 2007, after increasing $1,873,000 in 2006. The decline in non-performing loans in 2007 as compared to 2006 was primarily due to the decrease in non-accrual loans, offset by an increase in loans past due 90 days or more.

Table Six - Risk Elements

Loans which are in the process of collection, but are contractually past due 90 days or more as to interest or principal, renegotiated, non-accrual loans and other real estate are as follows:

	December 31,
(dollars in thousands)	2007			2006		2005		2004		2003

Total non-performing assets to total loans and other real estate		2.02	%	2.80	%	1.12	%	1.06	%		1.48	%

Loans are placed in non-accrual when the principal or interest is past due 90 days or more, unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection. Non-accrual loans were $2,437,000 or 2.0% of total loans outstanding as of December 31, 2007, as compared to $3,380,000 or 2.8% of total loans outstanding as of December 31, 2006. Non-accrual loans decreased in 2007 over 2006 primarily due to the pay-off of approximately $1,100,000 which consisted of two commercial real estate loans to one borrower. Non-accrual loans increased in 2006 over 2005 primarily due to the addition of two commercial loan customers into non-accrual status by the subsidiary bank. Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest were $26,000 at December 31, 2007, as compared to $3,000 at December 31, 2006. There was no balance in other real estate owned at December 31, 2007 and 2006. Management continues to monitor the nonperforming assets to ensure against deterioration in collateral values.

Generally, all banks recognize interest income on the accrual basis, except for certain loans which are placed on a non-accrual status. Loans are placed on a non-accrual status, when in the opinion of management doubt exists as to its collectibility. In accordance with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency Policy, banks may not accrue interest on any loan which either the principal or interest is past due 90 days or more unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection. The amount of interest income that would have been recognized on nonaccrual loans had the loans performed in accordance with their original terms was $156,500 and $204,100 for the periods ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of the Financial Condition and Results of Holding Company Operations

Allowance for Loan Losses

In all lending activities there is an inherent risk that borrowers will be unable to repay their obligations. The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses to absorb probable loan losses. Table Seven presents a five-year summary of the Allowance for Loan Losses. The Company has historically maintained the allowance for loan losses at a level greater than actual charge-offs. Although a subjective evaluation is determined by management, the Company believes it has appropriately assessed the risk of loans in the loan portfolio and has provided for an allowance which is adequate based on that assessment. Because the allowance is an estimate, any change in the economic conditions of the Company’s market area could result in new estimates which could affect the Company’s earnings. Management monitors the quality of the loan portfolio through reviews of past due loans and all significant loans which are considered to be potential problem loans on a monthly basis. The internal loan review function provides for an independent review of commercial, real estate, and installment loans in order to measure the asset quality of the portfolio. Management’s review of the loan portfolio has not indicated any material loans, not disclosed in the accompanying tables and discussions which are known to have possible credit problems that cause management to have serious doubts as to the ability of each borrower to comply with their present loan repayment terms.

The allowance for loan losses decreased $253,961 or 11.1%, between December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006. The allowance for loan losses represented 1.7% and 1.9% of outstanding loans as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Net loan charge-offs were $153,961 in 2007, compared to $22,913 in 2006 and $216,230 in 2005. The net loan charge-offs remain within historical ranges. The net loan charge-offs in 2007, 2006 and 2005 were primarily commercial and consumer loans. In 2007, a negative provision in the amount of $100,000 was taken primarily as a result of the payoff of two commercial impaired loans. There was no allocation to the provision for loan losses in 2006 compared to $180,000 at December 31, 2005. The credit quality of the loan portfolio combined with the recent level of net charge-offs and nonperforming assets continue to be considered in the calculation of the provision for loan losses.

The additions to the allowance for loan losses are based on management’s evaluation of characteristics of the loan portfolio, current and anticipated economic conditions, past loan experiences, net loans charged-off, specific problem loans and delinquencies, and other factors. The Company has allocated the allowance for possible loan losses to specific portfolio segments based upon historical net charge-off experience, changes in the level of nonperforming assets, local economic conditions and management’s experience as presented in Table Eight.

Deposits

A stable core deposit base is the major source of funds for the Holding Company’s subsidiary bank. The deposit mix depends upon many factors including competition from other financial institutions, depositor interest in certain types of deposits, changes in the interest rate and the Company’s need for certain types of deposit growth. Total deposits decreased approximately $7.3 million or 3.5% in 2007. The decrease in total deposits was primarily due to the decline in noninterest bearing demand deposits, savings deposits and time deposits, offset by an increase in interest bearing demand deposits. Savings deposits decreased approximately $3.6 million, or 6.7%, during 2007 while time deposits decreased approximately $2.7 million, or 2.7%. This decline in savings and time deposits is primarily a result of deposit customers seeking higher yielding deposit products.

At December 31, 2007, noninterest bearing deposits comprised 12% of total deposits and interest bearing deposits which include NOW, money market, savings and time deposits comprised 88% of total deposits. There were no changes in the deposit mix from December 31, 2006 to December 31, 2007 and from December 31, 2005 to December 31, 2006.

Federal Funds Purchased and Repurchase Agreements

Federal funds purchased and repurchase agreements are short-term borrowings. There were no Federal funds purchased as of December 31, 2007 and 2006. Repurchase agreements decreased $3,044,014 or 20.0%, from $15,240,158 at December 31, 2006 to $12,196,144 at December 31, 2007. The 2007 decrease in repurchase agreements was primarily due to the reduction in the balances maintained by commercial customers.

Federal Home Loan Bank and Other Long-term Borrowings

Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) borrowings were $9,298,492 and $2,342,718 at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, with an interest rate of 5.00% and 4.76%, respectively. The FHLB borrowings are collateralized by a blanket collateral agreement which assigns a security interest in capital stock, deposits, mortgage loans, securities and FHLB stock of the subsidiary bank.

The Company maintains a $3 million non-revolving line of credit from a financial institution. The purpose of the line of credit was to provide for the capitalization of the subsidiary Bank as required under the terms of the Formal Agreement. The line of credit is secured by 126,200 shares of Progressive Bank, N.A. stock. The note bears an interest rate of prime and is adjusted on a quarterly basis. The line of credit expires in May 2015 and is to be repaid in quarterly interest only payments for the first three years and quarterly principal and interest payments thereafter. The Company’s initial borrowing on the note amounted to $2 million. There were no outstanding borrowings under the line of credit at December 31, 2007 and 2006.

Liquidity

Liquidity management ensures that funds are available to meet loan commitments, deposit withdrawals, and operating expenses. Funds are provided by loan repayments, investment securities maturities, or deposits, and can be raised by liquidating assets or through additional borrowings. The Company had investment securities with an estimated fair value of $105,983,126 classified as available for sale at December 31, 2007. These securities are available for sale at any time based upon management’s assessment in order to provide necessary liquidity should the need arise. The fair value of temporarily impaired investment securities that the company has the intent and ability to hold until the anticipated recovery in market value is $33,566,000. In addition, the Company’s subsidiary bank, Progressive Bank, N.A., is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (“FHLB”). Membership in the FHLB provides an additional source of funding in the form of collateralized advances. At December 31, 2007, the subsidiary bank had a short term line of credit in the aggregate amount of approximately $7 million available with the FHLB. There were no short term borrowings outstanding pursuant to this agreement as of December 31, 2007. At December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, the Company had outstanding loan commitments and unused lines of credit totaling $14,335,000 and $16,268,000, respectively. As of December 31, 2007, management placed a high probability for required funding within one year of approximately $9.2 million. Approximately $3.7 million is principally unused home equity and credit card lines on which management places a low probability for required funding.

Capital Resources

Stockholders’ equity increased 3.5% in 2007 entirely from current year earnings after quarterly dividends, and a 4.2% increase in accumulated other comprehensive income. The increase in accumulated other comprehensive income is primarily attributable to the effect of the change in the net unrealized gains (losses) on available for sale investment securities. The increase in stockholders’ equity in 2007 follows an increase of 3.9% in 2006 entirely from current earnings after quarterly dividends and an increase of 1.6% resulting from the effect of the change in the net unrealized losses on available for sale investment securities. Stockholders’ equity amounted to 10.8% and 9.9% of total assets at the end of 2007 and 2006, respectively. The Company paid dividends of $.76 per share in 2007 and 2006.

The Holding Company’s primary source of funds for payment of dividends to shareholders is from the dividends from its subsidiary bank. As previously discussed in Note 17 of the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Board of Directors adopted a resolution with the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland which prohibited the Company from paying dividends or participating in the acquisition of treasury stock without prior Federal Reserve approval and a 30 day prior notice requirement. This resolution was terminated by the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland on January 30, 2007.

The Holding Company and its subsidiary bank are subject to regulatory risk-based capital guidelines administered by the Federal Reserve Board and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. These risk-based capital guidelines establish minimum capital ratios of Total capital, Tier 1 Capital, and Leverage to assess the capital adequacy of bank holding companies. Additional information on capital amounts, ratios and minimum regulatory requirements for the Company and its subsidiary bank can be found in Note 19 of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Interest Rate Risk

Changes in interest rates can affect the level of income of a financial institution depending on the repricing characteristics of its assets and liabilities. This is termed interest rate risk. If a financial institution is asset sensitive, more of its assets will reprice in a given time frame than liabilities. This is a favorable position in a rising rate environment and would enhance income. If an institution is liability sensitive, more of its liabilities will reprice in a given time frame than assets. This is a favorable position in a falling rate environment. Financial institutions allocate significant time and resources to managing interest rate risk because of the impact that changes in interest rates can have to earnings. The initial step in the process of maintaining a Company’s interest rate sensitivity involves the preparation of a basic “gap” analysis of earning assets and interest bearing liabilities as reflected in the following table. The analysis measures the difference or the “gap” between the amount of assets and liabilities repricing within a given time period.

33

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of the Financial Condition and Results of Holding Company Operations

This information is used to manage a Company’s asset and liability positions. Management uses this information as a factor in decisions made about maturities of investment of cash flows, classification of investment securities purchases as available-for-sale or held-to-maturity, emphasis of variable rate or fixed rate loans and short or longer term deposit products in marketing campaigns, and deposit account pricing to alter asset and liability repricing characteristics. The overall objective is to minimize the impact to the margin of any significant change in interest rates.

The information presented in the following Interest Rate Risk table contains assumptions and estimates used by management in determining repricing characteristics and maturity distributions. As noted in the following table, the cumulative gap at one year is positive at approximately $21,843,000, which indicates the Company’s earning assets reprice sooner than interest bearing liabilities at December 31, 2007. As the table presented is as of a point in time and conditions change on a daily basis, any conclusions made may not be indicative of future results.

The Company’s subsidiary bank uses an asset/liability model to measure the impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income on a periodic basis. Assumptions are made to simulate the impact of future changes in interest rates and/or changes in balance sheet composition. The effect of changes in future interest rates on the mix of assets and liabilities may cause actual results to differ from simulated results. Guidelines established by the Company’s subsidiary bank provides that the estimated net interest income may not change by more than 10% in a one year period given a +/- 200 basis point parallel shift in interest rates. Excluding the potential effect of interest rate changes on assets and liabilities of the Holding Company which are not deemed material, the anticipated impact on net interest income of the subsidiary bank at December 31, 2007 was as follows: given a 200 basis point increase scenario net interest income would be increased by approximately 1.4%, and given a 200 basis point decrease scenario net interest income would be reduced by approximately 11.5%. The projections provided by the model are not intended as an actual forecast of the bank’s performance in a particular rate environment, and should not be relied upon. Actual changes in the interest rate environment normally do not take place instantaneously, but over a period of time, and do not occur in a parallel fashion. Additionally, the balance sheet composition, spread relationships for new dollars invested, non interest income and expenses, investment practices, and deposit practices all change as a result of changes in interest rates and would need to be considered by the Asset Liability committee.

• Act with honesty and integrity, avoiding actual or apparent conflicts of interest in personal and professional relationships.

Trading in Company Stock by Employees

A. General Restrictions Against Insider Trading. No employee, officer or director shall purchase any First West Virginia Bancorp, Inc. stock or exercise company options while in the possession of material non-public information (MNPI) concerning the company. In general, information will be considered material if a reasonable investor would consider it important in making his or her investment decision. Such would include, for example, earnings results, acquisitions, divestitures, or pending changes in corporate control.

B. Blackout Periods. In addition to the general prohibition against trading in company stock and while in the possession of MNPI, the company has a policy prohibiting all employees, officers and certain third parties from buying or selling stock or exercising company options, during company “black-out” periods.

The company plans to release its financial results, including its earnings, to the public about four weeks after the end of each quarter. Since this is particularly sensitive information, it is the policy of the company that an employee may buy or sell stock on the first day of the last month of a quarter and ending 72 hours after the earnings release is disseminated. Thus, for example, no employee should buy or sell stock in the open market from December 1 through three days after the December 31 results have been released in late January. The same restrictions will apply with respect to each of the other fiscal quarters.

Reporting Requirements and Hotline

It is the responsibility of every director, officer, and employee of First West Virginia Bancorp, Inc. to immediately report to their supervisor or to the Chairman of the Audit Committee, illegal, unethical or other improper conduct that he or she has knowledge, including any violation of this Code of Conduct & Ethics whether the improper conduct was committed by an employee of the Corporation, or any other individual or business entity.

Disciplinary Action

Appropriate disciplinary action will be taken promptly against any director, officer or employee, who has violated any applicable federal, state or local law or regulation, or any violation of this Code of Conduct & Ethics or any future version of this Code. Among other things, directors, officers and employees of the Corporation may be disciplined for:

• Committing, authorizing, or directing an illegal act.

• Failing to exercise proper compliance oversight or tolerating illegal conduct, if acting as of another employee of the Corporation.

• Failing to report illegal business conduct of which he or she directly knows or observes.

• Retaliating or condoning retaliation against any director, officer, or employee of First West Virginia Bancorp, Inc. who reports such a violation.

As examples, the following are not valid excuses for failing to comply with the law and/or the Code of Conduct & Ethics and, as such, will not avoid disciplinary measures:

• “A supervisor demanded that I do the illegal, unethical or improper act.”

• “I thought the conduct was standard practice in our business.”

• “It was a business necessity because it would have cost more to act properly.”

• “I misinterpreted the law or this Code and did not seek the advice of the Audit Committee.”

Other Laws

PROXY STATEMENT

For Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be Held April 8, 2008

This proxy statement is furnished to the shareholders of First West Virginia Bancorp, Inc., (the “Company”), in connection with the solicitation of proxies for use at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held April 8, 2008, and at all adjournments thereof, for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders. This proxy statement and the enclosed form of proxy are first being mailed to shareholders on or about March 12, 2008.

Whether or not you expect to be personally present at the meeting, you are requested to fill in, sign, date and return the enclosed form of proxy. A proxy may be revoked at any time before it is voted at the meeting by executing a later dated proxy or by voting in person at the meeting, or by filing a written revocation with the judges of election. All shares represented by duly executed proxies in the accompanying form will be voted unless revoked prior to the voting thereof. The presence, in person or by proxy, of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock is required to constitute a quorum.

The close of business on March 6, 2008 has been fixed as the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders. As of the record date, there were outstanding and entitled to be voted at such meeting 1,538,443 shares of common stock less 10,000 shares held in treasury. The holders of the common stock will be entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held of record on the record date. In the election for directors votes may be cumulated if a shareholder requests cumulative voting for directors at least 48 hours before the meeting. Please see Election of Directors and Voting, below.

A copy of the Company’s Annual Report to Shareholders for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 accompanies this proxy statement.

The solicitation of this proxy is made by the Board of Directors of the Company. The solicitation will be by mail and the expense thereof will be paid by the Company. In addition, solicitation of proxies may be made by telephone or other means by directors, officers or regular employees of the Company.

I. Election of Directors

Nominees and Continuing Directors

The Board of Directors is divided into three classes, with the terms of office of each class ending in successive years. Three directors of the Company are to be elected to Class I, for terms expiring at the Annual Meeting in 2011 or until their respective successors have been elected and have qualified. Certain information with respect to the nominees for election as directors proposed by the Company and the other directors whose terms of office as directors will continue after the Annual Meeting is set forth below. Should any one or more of the nominees be unable or unwilling to serve (which is not expected), the proxies (except proxies marked to the contrary) will be voted for such other person or persons as the Board of Directors of the Company may recommend.

Directors are elected by majority of the votes voted. As required by West Virginia law, each share is entitled to one vote per nominee, unless a shareholder requests cumulative voting for directors at least 48 hours before the meeting. If a shareholder properly requests cumulative voting for directors, then each shareholder will have the right to vote the number of shares owned by that shareholder for as many persons as there are directors to be elected, or to cumulate such shares and give one candidate as many votes as the number of directors multiplied by the number of shares owned shall equal, or to distribute them on the same principle among as many candidates as the shareholder sees fit. If any shares are voted cumulatively for the election of directors, the proxies, unless otherwise directed, shall have full discretion and authority to cumulate their votes and vote for less than all such nominees. For all other purposes, each share is entitled to one vote.

Board of Directors and Committees

There were 12 regular meetings of the Board of Directors of the Company during 2007. All directors attended at least 75 percent of such meetings, except for Thomas A. Noice who attended 69% of the meetings. There was one special meeting in 2007. The standing committees of the Board include: Audit Committee, Nominating Committee and Corporate Governance/Human Resource and Compensation Committee.

Policy On Director Attendance At Shareholder Meetings

In order to fulfill their primary responsibilities, directors of the Company are expected to attend the annual meeting of shareholders and all board meetings, as well as all meetings on committees on which they serve. All of the directors of the Company attended the 2007 annual meeting of shareholders.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

No family relationships exist between members of the Corporate Governance/Human Resource and Compensation Committee and the Company’s executive officers, nor do any of the directors of the Company serve on personnel committees of any other corporation.

Audit Committee

The primary function of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities by reviewing: the financial reports and other financial information provided by the Company to the shareholders, any governmental body, and others; the Company’s systems of internal control regarding finance, accounting, legal compliance and ethics that management and the Board have established; and the Company’s auditing, accounting and financial reporting processes. The Audit Committee operates pursuant to a written charter, and the charter is attached as an appendix to this proxy statement. The committee met nine times during 2007. The independent members of the committee consist of non-salaried directors and presently include Gary W. Glessner, chairman, Nada E. Beneke, R. Clark Morton, Thomas A. Noice and Thomas L. Sable.

The Company’s Board of Directors has determined that Gary W. Glessner meets the requirement of an “audit committee financial expert” as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Board of Directors believes that Mr. Glessner has the following five attributes to qualify as an “audit committee financial expert.” Mr. Glessner is a licensed Certified Public Accountant. This director, through education and experience, has: an understanding of financial statements and generally accepted accounting principles; an ability to assess the general application of generally accepted accounting principles in connection with accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves; some experience in preparing, auditing, analyzing and evaluating financial statements that present a level of complexity of accounting issues comparable to the breadth of issues that could reasonably be expected to be presented by the Company’s financial statements; an understanding of internal controls; and, an understanding of audit committee functions. The Company believes that each member of the audit committee has sufficient knowledge in financial and auditing matters to serve on the committee. The committee has authority to engage legal counsel, other experts or consultants as it deems appropriate to carry out its responsibilities.

Report of the Audit Committee

The Audit Committee’s primary duties and responsibilities are to serve as an independent and objective monitor of the Company’s financial reporting process and internal control system; review and appraise the audit efforts of the Company’s independent accountants and internal auditing department; and to provide an open avenue of communication among the independent accountants, financial and senior management, the internal auditing department, and the Board of Directors.

The charter for the Audit Committee is reviewed annually. The committee met nine times during 2007. The Audit Committee reviewed and discussed the Company’s annual audited financial report with management. The Committee discussed with independent auditors, S. R. Snodgrass A.C., who are responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of those audited financial statements with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, the matters required to be discussed by SAS 114 (The Auditor’s Communication With Those Charged With Governance). The Committee also received and reviewed the written disclosures and the letter from independent accountants required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, Independence Discussions with Audit Committees), as may be modified or supplemented, and has discussed with the independent accountant the independent accountant’s independence. Additionally, the Audit Committee reviewed reports of the internal audit director concerning the results of the examinations of the accounting controls and procedures reviewed. The committee also reviewed various other matters pertaining to the business and operations of the Corporation during the year, including the scope and planning of the audits and the internal control procedures. Based on the review and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007. The Audit Committee also recommended to the Board of Directors the appointment of S. R. Snodgrass, A.C. as the independent auditors for the Company for 2008.

Nominating Committee

The Board of Directors has established a formal nominating committee for the selection of directors of the Company, consisting of non-salaried directors and presently includes William G. Petroplus, chairman, Thomas A. Noice and Nada E. Beneke. The committee met two times during 2007. Each of the nominating committee’s members is independent as that term is defined by the American Stock Exchange. The nominating committee does have a charter. The Nominating committee charter requires that candidates for director should have certain minimum qualifications, including:

• Directors should be of the highest ethical character;

• Directors should have excellent personal and professional reputations in the Company’s market area;

• Directors should be accomplished in their professions or careers;

• Directors should be able to read and understand financial statements and either have knowledge of, or the ability and willingness to learn, financial institution law;

• Directors should have relevant experience and expertise to evaluate financial data and provide direction and advice to the chief executive officer and the ability to exercise sound business judgment;

• Directors must be willing and able to expend the time to attend meetings of the board of directors of the Company and the bank and to serve on board committees;

• The board of directors will consider whether a nominee is independent, as legally defined. In addition, directors should avoid the appearance of any conflict and should be independent of any particular constituency and be able to serve all shareholders of the Company;

• Because the directors of the Company also serve as directors of the bank, a majority of directors must be residents of West Virginia, as required by state banking law;

• Directors must be acceptable to the Company’s and the bank’s regulatory agencies, including the Comptroller of the Currency, Federal Reserve Board, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and West Virginia Division of Banking and must not be under any legal disability which prevents them from serving on the board of directors or participating in the affairs of a financial institution;

• Directors must own or acquire sufficient capital stock to satisfy the requirements of law and the bylaws of the bank; and,

• Directors must be at least 21 years of age.

The board of directors of the Company reserves the right to modify these minimum qualifications from time to time, except where the qualifications are required by the laws relating to financial institutions.

The process of the nominating committee for identifying and evaluating nominees is as follows: In the case of incumbent directors whose terms are set to expire, the nominating committee considers the directors’ overall service to the Company during their term, including such factors as the number of meetings attended, the level of participation, quality of performance and any transactions between such directors of the Company and the bank. The nominating committee also reviews the payment history of loans, if any, made to such directors of the bank to ensure that the directors are not chronically delinquent and in default. The nominating committee considers whether any transactions between the directors and the bank have been criticized by any banking regulatory agency or the bank’s external auditors and whether corrective action, if required, has been taken and was sufficient. The nominating committee also confirms that such directors remain eligible to serve on the board of directors of a financial institution under federal and state law. For new director candidates, the nominating committee uses its network of contacts in the Company’s market area to compile a list of potential candidates. The nominating committee then meets to discuss each candidate and whether he or she meets the criteria set forth above. The nominating committee then discusses each candidate’s qualifications and chooses a candidate by majority vote.

The nominating committee will consider director candidates recommended by stockholders, provided that the recommendations are received at least 120 days before the next annual meeting of shareholders. In addition, the procedures set forth below are followed by stockholders for submitting nominations. The nominating committee does not intend to alter the manner in which it evaluates candidates, regardless of whether or not the candidate was recommended or nominated by a shareholder.

The Company’s bylaws provide that nominations for election to the board of directors, other than those made by or on behalf of the Company’s existing management, must be made by a shareholder in writing delivered or mailed to the President not less than 14 days nor more than 50 days prior to the meeting called for the election of directors; provided, however, that if less than 21 days’ notice of the meeting is given to shareholders, the nominations must be mailed or delivered to the president not later than the close of business on the seventh day following the day on which the notice of meeting was mailed. The notice of nomination must contain the following information, to the extent known:

• Name and address of proposed nominee(s);

4

• Principal occupation of nominee(s);

• Total shares to be voted for each nominee;

• Name and address of notifying shareholder; and

• Number of shares owned by notifying shareholder.

Nominations not made in accordance with these requirements may be disregarded by the chairman of the meeting and in such case the votes cast for each such nominee will likewise be disregarded. The nominees for election at this year’s meeting are three incumbent directors for Class I. No shareholder recommendations or nominations have been made.

Corporate Governance/Human Resource and Compensation Committee

The functions of the Corporate Governance, Human Resource and Compensation Committee are to review and recommend the annual salaries and bonuses of all executive officers; recommend the annual contribution to the employees’ profit sharing plan; and monitor the senior management and succession plans. The Committee reviews profitability of the Company and makes recommendations to the Board of Directors with regard to annual dividends to shareholders. The Committee also reviews director fees paid for attendance at board and committee meetings. The Board of Directors reviews the Committee recommendations for final action thereon. Company performance is considered in establishing the annual budget for salary increases and is the initial part of the review process. Company performance factors, including net income and return on equity, and individual performance are considered in setting annual bonuses. The Committee does have a charter. The Committee has authority to retain consultants and delegate authority if deemed necessary. The Committee met five times during 2007. The members of the Committee consist of non-salaried directors. The Committee members presently include Laura G. Inman, chairman, R. Clark Morton, Thomas A. Noice, and William G. Petroplus.

The Corporate Governance, Human Resource and Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis found in this proxy statement with management. Based upon such review, the related discussions and such other matters deemed relevant and appropriate by the Committee, the Committee has recommended to the Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this proxy statement to be delivered to shareholders. This report shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, unless the Company specifically incorporates this report by reference. It will not otherwise be filed under such Acts. Based on the review and discussions referred to above, the Corporate Governance/Human Resource and Compensation Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.

II. Executive Officer and Director Compensation

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Overview of Compensation Program

The Corporate Governance, Human Resource and Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board is responsible for the establishment and review of the Company’s executive compensation program. The Committee endeavors to determine executive compensation in a manner designed to provide a competitive compensation package that will be attractive to potential new executives and which will also provide incentives for existing executive to stay with the Company and contribute toward the success of the Company. Ultimately, compensation is based on the overall performance of the Company.

The Committee conducts an annual base salary and bonus review of its executive officers and develops incentive compensation programs where appropriate. The Committee also reviews and develops recommendations for director compensation, including committee fees.

You will find a series of tables to follow under the heading Executive Compensation that contain specific information about compensation earned or paid in 2007 and 2006 to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer serving as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, who are sometimes referred to as “named executive officers” or “NEO’s”. The Company or its subsidiary did not have any other executive officers whose compensation was in excess of $100,000. The Committee strives to ensure that the total compensation paid to the NEO’s is fair, reasonable and competitive.

5

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

The Company’s executive compensation program is designed to reward the achievement of annual, long-term, and strategic performance goals of the Company. This philosophy aligns the interests of its NEO’s with those of its shareholders, thereby improving shareholder value. The Committee evaluates both performance and compensation to ensure that the Company maintains its ability to attract and retain quality officers in key positions and that compensation provided to key officers remains competitive relative to the compensation paid to similarly positioned executives in other similarly configured financial institutions.

Role of Executive Officers in Compensation Decisions

While the Committee makes all decisions related to executive compensation, the Chief Executive Officer will provide input regarding the annual performance of each executive officer of the Company and will make recommendations for proposed salary adjustments. The Chief Executive Officer is not involved in determining his own compensation. The Committee then is responsible for recommending to the Board of Directors of the Company, and subject to final approval of such recommendations by the Board of Directors of the Company, the annual salary, raise and bonus determinations for the executive officers of the Company.

Establishing Executive Compensation

Based upon the compensation philosophy and objectives noted above, the Committee believes that the executive compensation package is competitive with other similar financial institutions and is designed to motivate and reward the executive officers for their performance. The Committee may at its discretion consider salary surveys or as needed may obtain a report from an outside consultant to compare the Company’s compensation package with other similarly configured companies. The Committee reviewed and considered salary survey reports provided by the West Virginia Bankers Association. Based on the salary survey, salary ranges, from low, to median to high, were utilized by the Committee in determining appropriate levels of compensation.

The Company does not have a pre-established policy or target for the allocation between cash and non-cash compensation nor does it have a pre-established policy or target for the allocation of short or long term compensation. Annually, the Committee will review executive compensation and will determine the appropriate level and mix of compensation.

6

Executive Compensation Components

The Company’s compensation package as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 consisted of the following components: base salary, bonus, and retirement benefits. Each element is described below.

Base Salary

The NEO’s and other employees are provided with a base salary to compensate them for services rendered during the year. Base salary ranges were established for NEO’s and were determined based on their position and responsibility within the organization by using available market data for similarly configured positions which may be adjusted to reflect other duties and responsibilities. In determining the base salaries of the NEO’s, the Committee primarily gave consideration to the West Virginia Bankers Association salary survey described above, the NEO’s base salary on an individual basis and in relation to the other officers in the Company and the NEO’s performance of his/her duties and responsibilities.

Annually, the Committee reviews the base salary levels as part of the Company’s performance review process. Base salary levels for NEO’s may also be adjusted for promotions or upon a change in their duties and responsibilities. In 2006, the Committee increased Mr. Dlesk’s base salary as a result of his promotion from interim to permanent President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and its subsidiary bank. The Committee also adjusted the salary level of other NEO’s based on the review of the individual’s performance of his/her duties and responsibilities and salary survey information.

Bonus

The determination of bonuses, as detailed below, is predicated on the Company’s earnings in the previous year, the increase in corporate net worth and individual executive officer performance. The Committee also is acutely aware that the purpose of our NEO’s is to generate earnings for the shareholders of the Company. Therefore, the Committee’s philosophy for its Executive Compensation Incentive Plan does not deviate from that avowed purpose. The plan consists of two basic steps. The first step is an earnings plateau which establishes the annual percentage return to the Company (based on corporate net worth) which was expected to be reached. The amount of return in excess of that expected percentage forms the basis for the bonus pool. The philosophy underlying this first earnings plateau is as follows.

Earnings to the extent of the determined percentage of corporate net worth are intended to provide for the following purposes:

(a) Payment of income taxes thereon;

(b) Payment of regularly established quarterly dividends;

(c) Provide for increases in subsequent executive salaries attributable to inflation;

(d) Provide for an increase to the regularly established quarterly dividend for the next year in the same percentage as the percentage of salary raises granted executives to compensate for inflation; and,

(e) Provide for growth of corporate net worth.

Earnings in excess of that percentage of corporate net worth are available for distributions for bonuses to NEO’s excepting any extraordinary profits received from the sale of assets owned by the Company and its subsidiary, with the exception of the subsidiary’s ordinary investment portfolio. The second basic step of the plan apportions earnings in excess of the first plateau. The Committee has divided those excess earnings into five incremental categories. Beginning with the first $400,000.00 of such excess and for each increment thereafter, the Committee has determined what percentage will be paid as executive bonuses. In addition to bonus payments, from each such increment comes a percentage for payment of income taxes thereon, and a payment for dividends to shareholders and to provide for growth of corporate net worth. After the first $400,000.00 increment has been exhausted, the second category consists of the next $300,000.00 of such excess earnings. After that has been exhausted, the third category consists of the next $200,000.00 of such excess earnings. After that has been exhausted, the fourth category consists of the next $100,000.00 of such excess earnings. Finally, after that has been exhausted, the fifth category consists of all excess earnings over $1,000,000.00.

The underlying goal of the Committee’s determinations is to provide a strong incentive for all NEO’s to strive to increase the annual earnings of the Company for the benefit of its shareholders.

Bonuses are paid to NEO’s by the Company’s subsidiary bank, Progressive Bank, N.A. Decisions as to the issuance of a bonus and the amount paid in each year is determined by the Committee and is recommended to the Company’s Board of Directors. The Committee determined that no bonuses were to be accrued or paid to its NEO’s under the Plan in 2007 and 2006.

7

Retirement Benefits

Retirement benefits represent an important component of the Company’s compensation package as it provides financial security which promotes retention for its NEO’s. The Committee believes that its retirement program is comparable to other similarly situated banking institutions.

The Company maintains a noncontributory profit-sharing plan for all employees of its existing subsidiary bank who are 21 years of age or older, have worked for the bank in excess of one year, are not parties to a collective bargaining agreement and have completed a minimum of 1000 hours of service. This plan has received a favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service. The Company makes contributions to this profit-sharing plan based upon a discretionary contribution ranging from zero percent to 15 percent of total compensation as fixed by appropriate action of the bank before the close of the year. Once determined, this discretionary contribution is distributed according to a four-tiered integrated allocation formula. In the first tier, the allocation is made by taking three percent of each participant’s compensation. This amount is then distributed to the employee’s separate retirement accounts. In the second tier, any amount of the total contribution remaining undistributed by the first tier is then allocated and distributed by taking each participant’s compensation in excess of $22,500.00 and multiplying that amount by three percent. If Company contributions are insufficient to fund to this level, the Company will determine the uniform allocation percentage to allocate to those participants who have compensation in excess of the integration level of $22,500.00. The uniform allocation percentage is determined by taking the remaining contribution and dividing this amount by the total excess compensation of participants. In the third tier, any amount of the total contribution remaining undistributed by the first and second tier is allocated and distributed by taking each participant’s compensation plus the excess compensation and multiplying that amount by 1.3%. If Company contributions are insufficient to fund to this level, the Company will determine the uniform allocation percentage to allocate to those participants who have compensation in excess of the integration level and excess compensation. The uniform allocation percentage is determined by taking the remaining contribution and dividing this amount by the total compensation including excess compensation of participants. Any amount of the total contribution remaining undistributed by the first, second and third tier is then allocated and distributed to the employee’s retirement accounts on a pro rata basis based upon the percentage of each employee’s compensation compared to total compensation. Employees are entitled to the balances in their separate retirement accounts at either normal retirement age, disability or death, but the amount of such benefits cannot accurately be predicted due to the discretionary nature of the contributions. During 2007, contributions amounted to $92,700.00, of which $15,386.70 accrued to the benefit of the NEO’s. Contributions in 2006 amounted to $102,500.00, of which $24,218.67 accrued to the benefit of the NEO’s.

The Company’s profit sharing plan also includes a 401(k) feature. That feature qualifies as a tax-deferred savings plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (The “401(k) Plan”) for all Company employees who are at least 21 years old, have completed a minimum of 1000 hours of service, and who have completed one year of service with the bank. Under the 401(k) Plan, eligible employees may contribute up to 50% of their gross salary to the 401(k) Plan or $15,5000.00, whichever is less. If an employee is age 50 or older and makes the maximum allowable deferral to the Plan, they are entitled to contribute an additional “catch-up contribution.” The catch-up contribution is intended to help eligible employees make up for smaller contributions made earlier in their careers. The maximum catch-up contribution for 2007 was $5,000.00. Each participating employee is fully vested in contributions made by such employee. The bank has elected to provide a matching contribution for participants which elect to make employee 401(k) contributions. The matching contribution is 50% of the participant’s contribution up to 2% of the participant’s covered compensation and 25% of the participant’s contribution up to the next 2% of the participant’s covered compensation. The Company’s share of the contribution during 2007 was $22,365.00 of which $1,912.43 was for the benefit of the NEO’s. In 2006 the contribution was $22,494.00 of which $3,530.33 was for the benefit of the NEO’s.

Effective December 31, 2004, the Company froze its non-qualified deferred compensation plan arrangement with its executive officers and no further contributions are permitted to the plan. This plan was frozen as a result of tax law changes by the Internal Revenue Service and limited usage by its executive officers. Under the original plan arrangement, each executive officer was permitted to elect to defer up to 50 percent of their bonus. The executive officers in the plan are generally entitled to the balances in their separate deferred compensation accounts at either normal retirement age, disability or death, or other termination of employment.

V. Transactions with Management and Others

Management personnel of the Company and its subsidiary bank have had and expect to continue to have banking transactions with the bank in the ordinary course of business. Extensions of credit to such persons are made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other persons. Management believes that these transactions do not involve more than a normal risk of collectibility or present other unfavorable features.

The Company does maintain certain related party transaction and conflict of interest policies that require the disclosure by management, including directors and NEO’s of any business or financial interest or relationship that may pose a potential conflict of interest or which might otherwise interfere with the best interests of the Company. The Company also maintains a Code of Conduct & Ethics under the supervision of the Audit Committee.

Other than transactions with Dlesk Realty and Investment Company, which is owned by Sylvan J. Dlesk and his wife, Rosalie J. Dlesk, detailed above at Certain Business Relationships, none of the directors, executive officers, beneficial owners or immediate family members have an interest or are involved in any transactions with the Company or its bank in which the amount involved exceeds $120,000.00, or was not subject to the usual terms and conditions, or was not determined by competitive bids. Similarly, no director, executive officer or beneficial owner has an equity interest in excess of 10 percent in a business or professional entity that has made payments to or received payments from the Company or its bank in 2005, 2006 or 2007 which exceed 5 percent of either party’s gross revenue for those periods, respectively. Transactions with Dlesk Realty and Investment Company represent approximately 6.9% of that Company’s gross revenue for 2007.

VI. Voting

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote which are present in person or represented by proxy at the 2008 Annual Meeting is required to elect directors and to act on any other matters properly brought before the meeting. Shares represented by proxies which are marked “withhold authority” with respect to the election of any one or more nominees for election as directors and proxies which are marked to deny discretionary authority on other matters will be counted for the purpose of determining the number of shares represented by proxy at the meeting. Such proxies will thus have the same effect as if the shares represented thereby were voted against such nominee or nominees or against such other matters. If a broker indicates on a proxy that the broker does not have discretionary authority as to certain shares to vote on a particular matter, those shares will not be considered as present and entitled to vote with respect to that matter.

In the election for directors every shareholder entitled to vote shall have the right to vote, in person or by proxy, the number of shares owned by him or her for as many persons as there are directors to be elected and for whose election he or she has a right to vote, or, upon 48 hours notice given under West Virginia law, to cumulate his or her votes by giving one candidate as many votes as the number of such directors multiplied by the number of his or her shares shall equal, or by distributing such votes on the same principal among any number of such candidates. Such rights may be exercised by a clear indication of the shareholder’s intent on the form of proxy. Under applicable law, there are no dissenter’s rights of appraisal as to the election of directors.

VII. Independent Auditors

S.R. Snodgrass, A.C. were the auditors for the year ended December 31, 2007. Upon the recommendation of the Audit Committee, the Board of Directors has reappointed them as the Company’s independent registered accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2008. Shareholder ratification of this selection is not required. A representative of S.R. Snodgrass, A.C. will be present at the meeting with the opportunity to make a statement and/or to respond to appropriate questions from shareholders.

S.R. Snodgrass, A.C. advised the Company that no member of that accounting firm has any direct or indirect material interest in the Company or its subsidiary. The table below presents the fees that were paid by the Company and the bank to S.R. Snodgrass, A.C. during the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Tax Fees (2)	$	6,000.00	$	6,000.00
All Other Fees (3)	$	1,250.00	$	1,550.00

⁽¹⁾ Audit fees consist of fees for professional service rendered for the audit of the consolidated financial statements and the review of financial statements included in the Company’s quarterly reports.

⁽²⁾ Tax fees consist of fees for the preparation of original and amended federal and state income tax returns and franchise tax returns.

⁽³⁾ Other service consist of fees for consulting on various accounting matters.

The audit committee has considered whether S.R. Snodgrass, A.C., has maintained its independence during the fiscal

13

year ended December 31, 2007. The audit committee charter requires that the audit committee pre-approve all audit and non-audit services to be provided to the Company by the independent accountants; provided, however, that the audit committee may specifically authorize its chairman to pre-approve the provision of any non-audit service to the Company. Further, the foregoing pre-approval policies may be waived, with respect to the provision of any non-audit services consistent with the exceptions for federal securities law. All of the services described above for which S.R. Snodgrass, A.C. billed the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, were pre-approved by the Company’s audit committee. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, the Company’s audit committee did not waive the pre-approval requirement of any non-audit services to be provided to the Company by S.R. Snodgrass, A.C.

In order for a shareholder to bring other business before a shareholder meeting, timely notice must be received by the Company. Such notice must include a description of the proposed business, the reasons therefore, and other specified matters. These requirements are separate from and in addition to the requirements a shareholder must meet to have a proposal included in the Company’s proxy statement.

In each case the notice must be given to the Secretary of the Company, whose address is 1701 Warwood Avenue, Wheeling, West Virginia 26003. Any shareholder desiring a copy of the Company’s Bylaws will be furnished one without charge upon written request to the Secretary.
