                                 CODE OF VIRGINIA

CONVERSION OF STATE BANK TO FEDERAL SAVINGS INSTITUTION (§ 6.2-828)

A. A state bank may convert into a federal savings institution as follows:

   1. At any meeting of the stockholders called and held in accordance with the
   Virginia Stock Corporation Act (&#xA7; 13.1-601 et seq.) or the Virginia
   Nonstock Corporation Act (&#xA7; 13.1-801 et seq.) to consider such action,
   the stockholders, by an affirmative vote of those holding and voting
   two-thirds of the votes present in person or by proxy, may resolve to convert
   the bank into a federal savings institution;

   2. A copy of the minutes of the meeting duly certified by the president or
   vice-president and the secretary or assistant secretary of the state bank
   shall be transmitted to the Commission;

   3. Thereafter, the state bank shall take such action as is necessary under
   federal law to make it a federal savings institution; and

   4. The bank shall file with the Commission a certified copy of the charter
   issued to it by the federal chartering authority, or a certificate of that
   authority showing the organization of the bank as a federal savings
   institution.

B. Upon the filing of the certified copy of a charter or certificate of
authority as provided in subdivision A 4, the bank shall cease to be a state
bank.

C. No state bank shall convert into a federal savings institution until it has
been in operation as a state bank for a period of at least five years.

D. When a conversion of a state bank into federal savings institution becomes
effective, the state bank shall cease to be a Virginia corporation and all its
property, by operation of law and without any further act or deed, shall
continue to be vested in it under its new name as a federal savings institution
and under its federal charter. The federal savings institution shall have, hold
and enjoy the same in its own right as fully and to the same extent as the same
was possessed, held and enjoyed by it as a state bank. The federal savings
institution, at the time of the taking effect of the conversion, shall become
and continue to be responsible for all of the obligations of the state bank
including taxes and other liabilities created by law or incurred by it before
becoming a federal savings institution to the same extent as though the
conversion had not taken place.
