Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of such words as: \u201cbelieve,\u201d \u201cexpect,\u201d \u201canticipate,\u201d \u201cintend,\u201d \u201cplan,\u201d \u201cestimate,\u201d or words of similar meaning, or future or conditional terms, such as \u201cwill,\u201d \u201cwould,\u201d \u201cshould,\u201d \u201ccould,\u201d \u201cmay,\u201d \u201clikely,\u201d \u201cprobably,\u201d or \u201cpossibly.\u201d These statements may address issues that involve significant risks, uncertainties, estimates, and assumptions made by management, including statements about (i)\u00a0the benefits of the transaction, including future financial and operating results, cost savings, enhancement to revenue and accretion to reported earnings that may be realized from the transaction and (ii) TowneBank\u2019s and Village\u2019s plans, objectives, expectations and intentions and other statements contained in this press release that are not historical facts. In addition, these forward-looking statements are subject to various risks, uncertainties, estimates and assumptions with respect to future business strategies and decisions that are subject to change and difficult to predict with regard to timing, extent, likelihood and degree of occurrence. Although TowneBank\u2019s and Village\u2019s respective management teams believe that estimates and assumptions on which forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, such estimates and assumptions are inherently uncertain. As a result, actual results may differ materially from the anticipated results discussed in these forward-looking statements because of possible uncertainties.<\/p>\n

The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements: (1) the business of Village and Village Bank may not be successfully integrated into TowneBank, or such integration may take longer, be more difficult, time-consuming or costly to accomplish than expected; (2) the expected growth opportunities or cost savings from the transaction may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected; (3) deposit attrition, operating costs, customer losses and business disruption following the transaction, including adverse effects on relationships with employees and customers, may be greater than expected; (4) economic, legislative or regulatory changes, including changes in accounting standards, may adversely affect the businesses in which TowneBank and Village are engaged; (5) competitive pressures in the banking industry that may increase significantly; (6) changes in the interest rate environment that may reduce margins and\/or the volumes and values of loans made or held as well as the value of other financial assets held; (7) an unforeseen outflow of cash or deposits or an inability to access the capital markets, which could jeopardize TowneBank\u2019s or Village\u2019s overall liquidity or capitalization; (8) changes in the creditworthiness of customers and the possible impairment of the collectability of loans; (9) insufficiency of TowneBank\u2019s or Village\u2019s allowance for credit losses due to market conditions, inflation, changing interest rates or other factors; (10) adverse developments in the financial industry generally, such as the 2023 bank failures, responsive measures to mitigate and manage such developments, related supervisory and regulatory actions and costs, and related impacts on customer and client behavior; (11) general economic conditions, either nationally or regionally, that may be less favorable than expected, resulting in, among other things, a deterioration in credit quality and\/or a reduced demand for credit or other services; (12) geopolitical instability, including wars, conflicts, trade restrictions and tariffs, civil unrest, and terrorist attacks and the potential impact, directly or indirectly, on TowneBank\u2019s or Village\u2019s business; (13) the effects of weather-related or natural disasters, which may negatively affect TowneBank\u2019s or Village\u2019s operations and\/or loan portfolio and increase the cost of conducting business; (14) public health events (such as the COVID-19 pandemic) and governmental and societal responses to them; (15) changes in the legislative or regulatory environment, including changes in accounting standards and tax laws, that may adversely affect TowneBank\u2019s or Village\u2019s businesses; (16) cybersecurity threats or attacks, whether directed at us or at vendors or other third parties with which we interact, the implementation of new technologies, and the ability to develop and maintain reliable electronic systems; (17) competitors may have greater financial resources and develop products that enable them to compete more successfully; (18) changes in business conditions; (19) changes in the securities market; and (20) changes in the local economies with regard to TowneBank\u2019s and Village\u2019s respective market areas.<\/p>\n

Additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements are discussed in TowneBank\u2019s reports (such as Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K) filed with the Federal Deposit Corporation and Village\u2019s reports (such as Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K) filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
