AMERICAN NATIONAL BANKSHARES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of American National Bankshares Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly owned subsidiary, American National Bank and Trust Company (the "Bank"). The Bank offers a wide variety of retail, commercial, secondary market mortgage lending, and trust and investment services which also include non-deposit products such as mutual funds and insurance policies.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 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 significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of foreclosed real estate, goodwill and intangible assets, the valuation of deferred tax assets, other-than-temporary impairments of securities, and acquired loans with specific credit-related deterioration.

All significant inter-company transactions and accounts are eliminated in consolidation, with the exception of the AMNB Trust and the MidCarolina Trusts, as detailed in Note 9.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the results of the interim periods. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may occur for the year ending December 31, 2015. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period balances to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications did not have an impact on net income and were considered immaterial. These statements should be read in conjunction with the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Note 2 – Merger with MainStreet

On January 1, 2015, the Company completed its acquisition of MainStreet BankShares, Inc. ("MainStreet"). The merger of MainStreet with and into the Company was effected pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, dated as of August 24, 2014, between the Company and MainStreet, and a related Plan of Merger. Immediately after the merger, Franklin Community Bank, N.A., MainStreet's wholly owned bank subsidiary, merged with and into the Bank. Pursuant to the MainStreet merger agreement, holders of shares of MainStreet common stock received $3.46 in cash and 0.482 shares of the Company's common stock for each share of MainStreet common stock held immediately prior to the effective date of the merger, plus cash in lieu of fractional shares. Each option to purchase shares of MainStreet common stock that was outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of the merger vested upon the merger and was converted into an option to purchase shares of the Company's common stock, adjusted based on a 0.643 exchange ratio. Each share of the Company's common stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger remained outstanding and was unaffected by the merger. The cash portion of the merger consideration was funded through a cash dividend of $6,000,000 from the Bank to the Company, and no borrowing was incurred by the Company or the Bank in connection with the merger. Replacement stock option awards representing 43,086 shares of the Company's common stock were granted in conjunction with the MainStreet acquisition. The value of the consideration transferred with the replacement awards was not determined as of March 31, 2015; therefore, the amounts of the consideration transferred and goodwill recorded in connection with the merger will be adjusted for the value of the replacement awards in the second quarter of 2015.

The transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration exchanged were recorded at estimated fair values on the acquisition date. Fair values are preliminary and subject to refinement for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition.

In connection with the merger, the consideration paid, and the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the merger date are summarized in the following table (dollars in thousands).

Index


Consideration Paid:
Common shares issued (825,586)	$	20,483
Cash paid to shareholders		5,935
Value of consideration		26,418

Assets acquired:
Cash and cash equivalents		18,173
Investment securities		18,800
Restricted stock		738
Loans		114,902
Premises and equipment		1,475
Deferred income taxes		2,683
Core deposit intangible		1,839
Other real estate owned		168
Banked owned life insurance		1,955
Other assets		917
Total assets		161,650

Liabilities assumed:
Deposits		137,323
Other liabilities		3,076
Total liabilities		140,399
Net assets acquired		21,251
Goodwill resulting from merger with MainStreet	$	5,167

In many cases, the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed were determined by estimating the cash flows expected to result from those assets and liabilities and discounting them at appropriate market rates. The most significant category of assets for which this procedure was used was that of acquired loans. The Company acquired the $122,300,000 loan portfolio at a fair value discount of $7,400,000. The estimated fair value of the performing portion of the portfolio was $105,800,000. The excess of expected cash flows above the fair value of the performing portion of loans will be accreted to interest income over the remaining lives of the loans in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 310-20.

Certain loans, those for which specific credit-related deterioration since origination was identified, are recorded at fair value, reflecting the present value of the amounts expected to be collected. Income recognition on these loans is based on reasonable expectations about the timing and amount of cash flows to be collected. Acquired loans deemed impaired and considered collateral dependent, with the timing of the sale of loan collateral indeterminate, remain on non-accrual status and have no accretable yield.

The following table details the acquired loans that are accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC 310-30 as of January 1, 2015 (dollars in thousands).

Contractually required principal and interest at acquisition	$	13,504
Contractual cash flows not expected to be collected (nonaccretable difference)		3,298
Expected cash flows at acquisition		10,206
Interest component of expected cash flows (accretable yield)		1,208
Fair value of acquired loans accounted for under FASB ASC 310-30	$	8,998

In accordance with GAAP, there was no carryover of the allowance for loan losses that had been previously recorded by MainStreet.

In connection with the merger with MainStreet, the Company acquired an investment portfolio with a fair value of $18,800,000. The fair value of the investment portfolio was determined by taking into account market prices obtained from independent valuation sources.

In connection with the merger with MainStreet, the Company recorded a deferred income tax asset of $2,700,0000 related to tax attributes of MainStreet, along with the effects of fair value adjustments resulting from applying the acquisition method of accounting.

In connection with the merger with MainStreet, the Company acquired other real estate owned with a fair value of $168,000. Other real estate owned was measured at fair value less estimated cost to sell.

Index

In connection with the merger with MainStreet, the Company acquired premises and equipment with a fair value of $1,400,000.

The fair value of savings and transaction deposit accounts acquired from MainStreet was assumed to approximate their carrying value as these accounts have no stated maturity and are payable on demand. Certificates of deposit accounts were valued by comparing the contractual cost of the portfolio to an identical portfolio bearing current market rates. The portfolio was segregated into pools based on segments: retail, individual retirement accounts, and brokered. For each segment, the projected cash flows from maturing certificates were then calculated based on contractual rates and prevailing market rates. The valuation adjustment for each segment is equal to the present value of the difference of these two cash flows, discounted at the assumed market rate for a certificate with a corresponding maturity. This valuation adjustment of $290,000 will be accreted to reduce interest expense over the average remaining maturities of the respective pools, which is estimated to be 12 months.

A core deposit intangible of $1,800,000 was recognized in connection with the merger with MainStreet. This intangible will be amortized over a 10 year period on an accelerated cost recovery basis.

Direct costs related to the acquisition were expensed as incurred. During the entire year of 2011, the Company incurred $359,000 in merger and acquisition expenses.

The following table presents unaudited pro forma information as if the merger with MainStreet had occurred on January 1, 2014. This pro forma information gives effect to certain adjustments, including purchase accounting fair value adjustments, amortization of core deposit intangible and related income tax effects. The pro forma information does not necessarily reflect the results of operations that would have occurred had the merger with MainStreet occurred in 2014. In particular, expected operational cost savings are not reflected in the pro forma amounts (dollars in thousands):.

Restricted Stock

Due to restrictions placed upon the Bank's common stock investment in the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond ("FRB") and Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta ("FHLB"), these securities have been classified as restricted equity securities and carried at cost. The restricted securities are not subject to the investment security classification and are included as a separate line item on the Company's balance sheet. The FRB requires the Bank to maintain stock with a par value equal to 6.0% of its common stock and paid-in surplus. One-half of this amount is paid to the FRB and the remaining half is subject to call when deemed necessary by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. The FHLB requires the Bank to maintain stock in an amount equal to a specific percentage of the Bank's total assets and 4.5% of outstanding borrowings. The Bank also owns common stock in CBB Financial Corporation and Pacific Coast Bankers Bankshares, which both provide services to community banks. The cost of restricted stock at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were as follows (dollars in thousands):

	March 31,		December 31,
	2015		2014

Temporarily Impaired Securities

The following table shows fair value and gross unrealized losses, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position, at March 31, 2015. The reference point for determining when securities are in an unrealized loss position is month-end. Therefore, it is possible that a security's market value exceeded its amortized cost on other days during the past twelve-month period (dollars in thousands).

	Total				Less than 12 Months				12 Months or More
	Fair Value		Unrealized Loss		Fair Value		Unrealized Loss		Fair Value		Unrealized Loss

Federal Agencies and GSE debt securities: The unrealized losses on the Company's investment in four government sponsored entities ("GSE") were caused by interest rate increases. The contractual terms of those investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost basis of the investments. Because the Company does not intend to sell the investments and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2015.

Mortgage-backed securities and CMOs: The unrealized losses on the Company's investment in 13 GSE mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations ("CMOs") were caused by interest rate increases. The contractual cash flows of those investments are guaranteed by an agency of the U.S. Government. Accordingly, it is expected that the securities would not be settled at a price less than the amortized cost basis of the Company's investments. Because the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, and because the Company does not intend to sell the investments and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2015.

Index

State and municipal securities: The unrealized losses on 14 state and municipal securities were caused by interest rate increases. The contractual terms of those investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost basis of the investments. Because the Company does not intend to sell the investments and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2015.

Corporate securities: The unrealized losses on three investments in corporate securities were caused by interest rate increases. The contractual terms of those investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost basis of the investments. Because the Company does not intend to sell the investments and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2015.

Restricted stock: When evaluating restricted stock for impairment, its value is based on the ultimate recoverablity of the par value rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. The company does not consider restricted stock to be other-than-temoraily impaired at March 31, 2015, and no impairment has been recognized.

The table below shows gross unrealized losses and fair value, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities had been in a continuous unrealized loss position, at December 31, 2014 (dollars in thousands):

Loans classified in the Pass category typically are fundamentally sound and risk factors are reasonable and acceptable.

Loans classified in the Special Mention category typically have been criticized internally, by loan review or the loan officer, or by external regulators under the current credit policy regarding risk grades.

Index

Loans classified in the Substandard category typically have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt; they are typically characterized by the possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Loans classified in the Doubtful category typically have all the weaknesses inherent in loans classified as substandard, plus the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values highly questionable and improbable. However, these loans are not yet rated as loss because certain events may occur that may salvage the debt.

Consumer loans are classified as performing or nonperforming. A loan is nonperforming when payments of interest and principal are past due 90 days or more, or payments are less than 90 days past due, but there are other good reasons to doubt that payment will be made in full.

The allowance for loan losses is allocated to loan segments based upon historical loss factors, risk grades on individual loans, portfolio analyses of smaller balance, homogenous loans, and qualitative factors. Qualitative factors include trends in delinquencies, nonaccrual loans, and loss rates; trends in volume and terms of loans, effects of changes in risk selection, underwriting standards, and lending policies; experience of lending officers and other lending staff; national, regional, and local economic trends and conditions; legal, regulatory and collateral factors; and concentrations of credit.

Note 6 – Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The Company records as goodwill the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. Impairment testing is performed annually, as well as when an event triggering impairment may have occurred. The Company performs its annual analysis as of June 30 each fiscal year. Accounting guidance permits preliminary assessment of qualitative factors to determine whether more substantial impairment testing is required. The Company chose to bypass the preliminary assessment and utilized a two-step process for impairment testing of goodwill. The first step tests for impairment, while the second step, if necessary, measures the impairment. No indicators of impairment were identified as of June 30, 2014.

Core deposit intangibles resulting from the acquisition of Community First Financial Corporation ("Community First") in April 2006 were $6,556,000 and are being amortized over 108 months. Core deposit intangibles resulting from the MidCarolina acquisition in July 2011 were $3,112,000 and are being amortized on an accelerated basis over 120 months. Core deposit intangibles resulting from the MainSteeet acquisition in January 2015 were $1,839,000 and are being amortized on an accelerated basis over 120 months.

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill and intangibles for the three months ended March 31, 2015, are as follows (dollars in thousands):

Note 7 – Short-term Borrowings

Short-term borrowings consist of customer repurchase agreements, overnight borrowings from the FHLB, and Federal Funds purchased. Customer repurchase agreements are collateralized by securities of the U.S. Government or its agencies or GSEs. They mature daily. The interest rates may be changed at the discretion of the Company. The securities underlying these agreements remain under the Company's control. Other short-term borrowings consist of overnight advances which contain floating interest rates that may change daily at the discretion of the FHLB. Federal Funds purchased are unsecured overnight borrowings from other financial institutions. There were no customer repurchase agreements acquired in the MainStreet acquisition. Short-term borrowings consisted of the following at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 (dollars in thousands):

	March 31, 2015			December 31, 2014

Customer repurchase agreements		$	53,664		$	53,480

Note 8 – Long-term Borrowings

Under the terms of its collateral agreement with the FHLB, the Company provides a blanket lien covering all of its residential first mortgage loans, second mortgage loans, home equity lines of credit, and commercial real estate loans. In addition, the Company pledges as collateral its capital stock in the FHLB and deposits with the FHLB. The Company has a line of credit with the FHLB equal to 30% of the Company's assets, subject to the amount of collateral pledged. As of March 31, 2015, $405,936,000 in eligible collateral was pledged under the blanket floating lien agreement which covers both short-term and long-term borrowings. Long-term borrowings consisted of the following fixed rate, long-term advances as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 (dollars in thousands):

		$	9,941		2.98	%			$	9,935		2.98	%

The advance due in November 2017 is net of a fair value discount of $59,000. The original discount recorded on July 1, 2011, was a result of the merger with MidCarolina. The adjustment to the face value will be amortized into interest expense over the life of the borrowing. There were no long-term borrowings acquired in the MainStreet acquisition and no borrowings were incurred to fund the acquisition.

In the regular course of conducting its business, the Company takes deposits from political subdivisions of the states of Virginia and North Carolina. At March 31, 2015, the Bank's public deposits totaled $136,218,000. The Company is required to provide collateral to secure the deposits that exceed the insurance coverage provided by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. This collateral can be provided in the form of certain types of government or agency bonds or letters of credit from the FHLB. At March 31, 2015, the Company had $70,000,000 in letters of credit with the FHLB outstanding, as well as $116,655,000 in agency, state, and municipal securities to provide collateral for such deposits.

Note 9 – Trust Preferred Capital Notes

On April 7, 2006, AMNB Statutory Trust I (the "AMNB Trust I"), a Delaware statutory trust and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, issued $20,000,000 of preferred securities (the "Trust Preferred Securities") in a private placement pursuant to an applicable exemption from registration. The Trust Preferred Securities mature on September 30, 2036, but may be redeemed at the Company's option (which option became effective beginning on September 30, 2011). Initially, the securities required quarterly distributions by the AMNB Trust I to the holder of the Trust Preferred Securities at a fixed rate of 6.66%. Effective September 30, 2011, the rate resets quarterly at the three-month LIBOR plus 1.35%. Distributions are cumulative and will accrue from the date of original issuance, but may be deferred by the Company from time to time for up to 20 consecutive quarterly periods. The Company has guaranteed the payment of all required distributions on the Trust Preferred Securities.

The proceeds of the Trust Preferred Securities received by the AMNB Trust, along with proceeds of $619,000 received by the trust from the issuance of common securities by the trust to the Company, were used to purchase $20,619,000 of the Company's junior subordinated debt securities (the "Trust Preferred Capital Notes"), issued pursuant to junior subordinated debentures entered into between the Company and Wilmington Trust Company, as trustee. The proceeds of the Trust Preferred Capital Notes were used to fund the cash portion of the merger consideration to the former shareholders of Community First in connection with the Company's acquisition of that company, and for general corporate purposes.

Index

On July 1, 2011, in connection with the MidCarolina merger, the Company assumed $8,764,000 in junior subordinated debentures to MidCarolina Trust I and MidCarolina Trust II, two separate Delaware statutory trusts (the "MidCarolina Trusts"), to fully and unconditionally guarantee the preferred securities issued by the MidCarolina Trusts. These long-term obligations, which currently qualify as Tier 1 capital, constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by the Company of the MidCarolina Trusts' obligations. The MidCarolina Trusts are not consolidated in the Company's financial statements.

In accordance with FASB ASC 810-10-15-14, the Company did not eliminate through consolidation the Company's $619,000 equity investment in AMNB Trust I or the $264,000 equity investment in the MidCarolina Trusts. Instead, the Company reflected this equity investment in the "Accrued interest receivable and other assets" line item in the consolidated balance sheets.

A description of the junior subordinated debt securities outstanding payable to the trusts is shown below as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 (dollars in thousands):

	Date		Interest			Maturity		Principal Amount

The principal amounts reflected for the MidCarolina Trusts are net of fair value adjustments of $987,000 and $850,000, respectively. The original fair value adjustments of $1,197,000 and $1,021,000 were recorded as a result of the merger with MidCarolina on July 1, 2011, and are being amortized into interest expense over the remaining lives of the respective borrowings.

Note 10 – Stock Based Compensation

The Company's 2008 Stock Incentive Plan ("2008 Plan") was adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company on February 19, 2008, and approved by shareholders on April 22, 2008, at the Company's 2008 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. The 2008 Plan provides for the granting of restricted stock awards and incentive and non-statutory options to employees and directors on a periodic basis, at the discretion of the Board of Directors or a Board designated committee. The 2008 Plan authorizes the issuance of up to 500,000 shares of common stock. The 2008 Plan replaced the Company's stock option plan that was approved by the shareholders at the 1997 Annual Meeting. The prior stock option plan was terminated in 2006.

Stock Options

Accounting guidance requires that compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements with measurement based upon the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued.

A summary of stock option transactions for the three months ended March 31, 2015 is as follows:

	Option Shares		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term	Aggregate Intrinsic Value ($000)

Exercisable at March 31, 2015		144,858	$	24.81	2.08 years		$	164

Index

Replacement stock option awards representing 43,086 shares of the Company's common stock were granted in conjunction with the MainStreet acquisition. The value of the consideration transferred with the replacement awards was not determined as of March 31, 2015; therefore, the amounts of the consideration transferred and goodwill recorded in connection with the merger will be adjusted for the value of the replacement awards in the second quarter of 2015.

The fair value of options is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and expensed over the options' vesting period. As of March 31, 2015, there was no unrecognized compensation expenses related to nonvested stock option grants.

Restricted Stock

The Company from time-to-time grants shares of restricted stock to key employees and non-employee directors. These awards help align the interests of these employees and directors with the interests of the shareholders of the Company by providing economic value directly related to increases in the value of the Company's common stock. The value of the stock awarded is established as the fair market value of the stock at the time of the grant. The Company recognizes expense, equal to the total value of such awards, ratably over the vesting period of the stock grants. Restricted stock granted cliff vests over 24 to 36 months based on the term of the award.

Nonvested restricted stock activity for the three months ended March 31, 2015 is summarized in the following table.

Restricted Stock	Shares		Weighted Average Grant Date Value

Nonvested at December 31, 2014		41,562	$	21.39
Granted		16,649		12.92
Vested		15,536		19.51
Forfeited		-		-
Nonvested at March 31, 2015		42,675	$	18.77

As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there was $594,000 and $327,000 in unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested restricted stock granted under the 2008 Plan. The weighted average period over which this cost is expected to be recognized is 1.77 years. The share based compensation expense for nonvested restricted stock was $93,000 and $70,000 during the first three months of 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Starting in 2010, the Company began offering its outside directors alternatives with respect to director compensation. The regular quarterly board retainer can be received in the form of either (i) $1,000 in cash or (ii) shares of immediately vested, but restricted stock with a market value of $1,563. Monthly meeting fees can also be received as $600 per meeting in cash or $750 in immediately vested, but restricted stock. For 2015, all 13 outside directors have elected to receive stock in lieu of cash for either all or part of their quarterly retainer or meeting fees. Only outside directors receive board fees. The Company issued 2,812 and 3,002 shares and recognized share based compensation expense of $155,000 and $96,000 during the first three months of 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Note 11 – Earnings Per Share

The following shows the weighted average number of shares used in computing earnings per common share and the effect on weighted average number of shares of potentially dilutive common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014. Potentially dilutive common stock had no effect on income available to common shareholders.

	Three Months Ended

	2015					2014
	Shares		Per Share Amount			Shares		Per Share Amount
Basic		8,723,633		$	0.40		7,904,759		$	0.44

Diluted		8,732,679		$	0.40		7,917,601		$	0.44

Stock options on common stock which were not included in computing diluted earnings per share for the three month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, because their effects were antidilutive, averaged 79,726 and 110,542 shares, respectively.

Index

Nonvested restricted stock is included in calculating basic earnings per share because the holder has voting rights and shares in non-forfeitable dividends during the vesting period.

Note 12 – Employee Benefit Plans

The following information for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 pertains to the Company's non-contributory defined benefit pension plan which was frozen in 2009. If lump sum payments exceed the service cost plus interest cost, an additional settlement charge will apply (dollars in thousands):

Note 13 – Segment and Related Information

The Company has two reportable segments, (i) community banking and (ii) trust and investment services.

Community banking involves making loans to and generating deposits from individuals and businesses. All assets and liabilities of the Company are allocated to community banking. Investment income from securities is also allocated to the community banking segment. Loan fee income, service charges from deposit accounts, and non-deposit fees such as automated teller machine fees and insurance commissions generate additional income for the community banking segment.

Trust and investment services include estate planning, trust account administration, investment management, and retail brokerage. Investment management services include purchasing equity, fixed income, and mutual fund investments for customer accounts. The trust and investment services segment receives fees for investment and administrative services.

Amounts shown in the "Other" column includes activities of the Company which are primarily debt service on trust preferred securities and corporate items. Intersegment eliminations primarily consist of the Company's investment in the Bank.

Segment information as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 (unaudited), is shown in the following table (dollars in thousands):

Note 14 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Determination of Fair Value

The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. In accordance with the fair value measurements and disclosures topic of FASB ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures", the fair value of an instrument is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in many instances, there are no quoted market prices for the Company's various instruments. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument.

The fair value guidance provides a consistent definition of fair value, which focuses on exit price in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. If there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, a change in valuation technique or the use of multiple valuation techniques may be appropriate. In such instances, determining the price at which willing market participants would transact at the measurement date under current market conditions depends on the facts and circumstances and requires the use of significant judgment. The fair value is a reasonable point within the range that is most representative of fair value under current market conditions.

Fair Value Hierarchy

In accordance with this guidance, the Company groups its assets and liabilities generally measured at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value.

Level 1 –

Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2 –

Valuation is based on observable inputs including quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in less active markets, and model-based valuation techniques for which significant assumptions can be derived primarily from or corroborated by observable data in the market.

Level 3 –

Valuation is based on model-based techniques that use one or more significant inputs or assumptions that are unobservable in the market.

The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the financial statements:

Securities available for sale: Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted market prices, when available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar securities for which significant assumptions are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable market data. Third party vendors compile prices from various sources and may determine the fair value of identical or similar securities by using pricing models that consider observable market data (Level 2). If no observable market data is available, valuations are based upon third party model based techniques (Level 3). FRB and FHLB stocks are carried at cost since no ready market exists and there is no quoted market value. The Company is required to own stock in these entities as long as it is a member. Therefore, they have been excluded from the following table.

The following table presents the balances of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis during the period (dollars in thousands):

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP. Adjustments to the fair value of these assets usually result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs of individual assets.

The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the financial statements:

Loans held for sale: Loans held for sale are carried at estimated fair value. These loans currently consist of one-to-four family residential loans originated for sale in the secondary market. Fair value is based on the price secondary markets are currently offering for similar loans using observable market data which is not materially different than cost due to the short duration between origination and sale (Level 2). As such, the Company records any fair value adjustments on a nonrecurring basis. No nonrecurring fair value adjustments were recorded on loans held for sale during the three month period ended March 31, 2015 or the year ended December 31, 2014. Gains and losses on the sale of loans are recorded within income from mortgage banking on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Index

Impaired loans: Loans are designated as impaired when, in the judgment of management based on current information and events, it is probable that all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreements will not be collected. In addition, the impairment of a loan may be measured using a present value of future cash flows analysis (Level 3). Collateral may be in the form of real estate or business assets including equipment, inventory, and accounts receivable. The vast majority of the Company's collateral is real estate. The value of real estate collateral is determined utilizing a market valuation approach based on an appraisal, of one year or less, conducted by an independent, licensed appraiser using observable market data (Level 2). However, if the collateral is a house or building in the process of construction or if an appraisal of the property is more than one year old and not solely based on observable market comparables or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value, then a Level 3 valuation is considered to measure the fair value. The value of business equipment is based upon an outside appraisal, of one year or less, if deemed significant, or the net book value on the applicable business's financial statements if not considered significant using observable market data. Likewise, values for inventory and accounts receivables collateral are based on financial statement balances or aging reports (Level 3). Impaired loans allocated to the allowance for loan losses are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Any fair value adjustments are recorded in the period incurred as provision for loan losses on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Other real estate owned: Measurement for fair values for other real estate owned are the same as real estate collateral discussed with impaired loans.

The following table summarizes the Company's assets that were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at the dates indicated (dollars in thousands):

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

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

Securities. Fair values are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes.

Loans held for sale. The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Loans. For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. Fair values for fixed-rate loans are estimated based upon discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. Fair values for nonperforming loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses or underlying collateral values, where applicable.

Bank owned life insurance. Bank owned life insurance represents insurance policies on officers, directors, and past directors of the Company. The cash values of the policies are estimates using information provided by insurance carriers. These policies are carried at their cash surrender value, which approximates the fair value.

Accrued interest receivable. The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Deposits. The fair value of demand deposits, savings deposits, and money market deposits equals the carrying value. The fair value of fixed-rate certificates of deposit is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar deposit instruments would be offered to depositors for the same remaining maturities.

Repurchase agreements. The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Other borrowings. The fair values of other borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the interest rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Trust preferred capital notes. Fair value is calculated by discounting the future cash flows using the estimated current interest rates at which similar securities would be issued.

Accrued interest payable. The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Index

Off-balance sheet instruments. The fair value of letters of credit is based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate them or otherwise settle the obligations with the counterparties at the reporting date. At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the fair value of off-balance sheet instruments was deemed immaterial, and therefore was not included in the previous table.

The Company assumes interest rate risk (the risk that interest rates will change) in its normal operations. As a result, the fair values of the Company's financial instruments will change when interest rates change and that change may be either favorable or unfavorable to the Company.

Note 17 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-01, "Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)." The amendments in this ASU permit reporting entities to make an accounting policy election to account for their investments in qualified affordable housing projects using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. Under the proportional amortization method, an entity amortizes the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received and recognizes the net investment performance in the income statement as a component of income tax expense (benefit). The amendments in this ASU should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. A reporting entity that uses the effective yield method to account for its investments in qualified affordable housing projects before the date of adoption may continue to apply the effective yield method for those preexisting investments. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for annual periods and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Index

In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-04, "Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)." The amendments in this ASU clarify that an in-substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either (1) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure or (2) the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. Additionally, the amendments require interim and annual disclosure of both (1) the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held by the creditor and (2) the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate property that are in the process of foreclosure according to local requirements of the applicable jurisdiction. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Topic 606." This ASU applies to any entity using. GAAP that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. The guidance supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, "Revenue Recognition", most industry-specific guidance, and some cost guidance included in Subtopic 605-35, "Revenue Recognition—Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts." The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To be in alignment with the core principle, an entity must apply a five step process including: identification of the contract(s) with a customer, identification of performance obligations in the contract(s), determination of the transaction price, allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognition of revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. Additionally, the existing requirements for the recognition of a gain or loss on the transfer of nonfinancial assets that are not in a contract with a customer have also been amended to be consistent with the guidance on recognition and measurement. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. In April 2015, the FASB voted in favor of a one year deferral of the effective date of this amendment. An exposure draft is expected with a 30 day comment period. The Company is currently assessing the impact that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-10, "Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation." The amendments in this ASU remove all incremental financial reporting requirements from GAAP for development stage entities, including the removal of Topic 915, "Development Stage Entities," from the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. In addition, this ASU adds an example disclosure and removes an exception provided to development stage entities in Topic 810, "Consolidation," for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity. The presentation and disclosure requirements in Topic 915 will no longer be required for the first annual period beginning after December 15, 2014. The revised consolidation standards are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-10 to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-11, "Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures." This ASU aligns the accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions and repurchase agreements executed as a repurchase financing with the accounting for other typical repurchase agreements. The new guidance eliminates sale accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions and supersedes the guidance under which a transfer of a financial asset and a contemporaneous repurchase financing could be accounted for on a combined basis as a forward agreement. The amendments in the ASU also require a new disclosure for transactions economically similar to repurchase agreements in which the transferor retains substantially all of the exposure to the economic return on the transferred financial assets throughout the term of the transaction. Additional disclosures will be required for the nature of collateral pledged in repurchase agreements and similar transactions accounted for as secured borrowings. The amendments in this ASU are effective for the first interim or annual period beginning after December 15, 2014; however, the disclosure for transactions accounted for as secured borrowings is required to be presented for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods beginning after March 15, 2015. Early adoption is not permitted. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Index

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-14, "Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Classification of Certain Government-Guaranteed Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure." The amendments in this ASU apply to creditors that hold government-guaranteed mortgage loans and are intended to eliminate the diversity in practice related to the classification of these guaranteed loans upon foreclosure. The new guidance stipulates that a mortgage loan be derecognized and a separate other receivable be recognized upon foreclosure if (1) the loan has a government guarantee that is not separable from the loan prior to foreclosure, (2) at the time of foreclosure, the creditor has the intent to convey the real estate property to the guarantor and make a claim on the guarantee, and the creditor has the ability to recover under that claim, and (3) at the time of foreclosure, any amount of the claim that is determined on the basis of the fair value of the real estate is fixed. Upon foreclosure, the other receivable should be measured on the amount of the loan balance (principal and interest) expected to be recovered from the guarantor. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014. Entities may adopt the amendments on a prospective basis or modified retrospective basis as of the beginning of the annual period of adoption; however, the entity must apply the same method of transition as elected under ASU 2014-04. Early adoption is permitted provided the entity has already adopted ASU 2014-04. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, "Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern." This update is intended to provide guidance about management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. Management is required under the new guidance to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued when preparing financial statements for each interim and annual reporting period. If conditions or events are identified, the ASU specifies the process that must be followed by management and also clarifies the timing and content of going concern footnote disclosures in order to reduce diversity in practice. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-15 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-16, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Determining Whether the Host Contract in a Hybrid Financial Instrument Issued in the Form of a Share Is More Akin to Debt or to Equity." The amendments in this ASU do not change the current criteria in GAAP for determining when separation of certain embedded derivative features in a hybrid financial instrument is required. The amendments clarify how current GAAP should be interpreted in evaluating the economic characteristics and risks of a host contract in a hybrid financial instrument that is issued in the form of a share. Specifically, the amendments clarify that an entity should consider all relevant terms and features, including the embedded derivative feature being evaluated for bifurcation, in evaluating the nature of the host contract. Furthermore, the amendments clarify that no single term or feature would necessarily determine the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract. Rather, the nature of the host contract depends upon the economic characteristics and risks of the entire hybrid financial instrument. The amendments in this ASU also clarify that, in evaluating the nature of a host contract, an entity should assess the substance of the relevant terms and features (i.e., the relative strength of the debt-like or equity-like terms and features given the facts and circumstances) when considering how to weight those terms and features. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption, including adoption in an interim period, is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-16 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-01, "Income Statement—Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20): Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items." The amendments in this ASU eliminate from GAAP the concept of extraordinary items. Subtopic 225-20, Income Statement - Extraordinary and Unusual Items, required that an entity separately classify, present, and disclose extraordinary events and transactions. Presently, an event or transaction is presumed to be an ordinary and usual activity of the reporting entity unless evidence clearly supports its classification as an extraordinary item. If an event or transaction meets the criteria for extraordinary classification, an entity is required to segregate the extraordinary item from the results of ordinary operations and show the item separately in the income statement, net of tax, after income from continuing operations. The entity also is required to disclose applicable income taxes and either present or disclose earnings per share data applicable to the extraordinary item. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted provided that the guidance is applied from the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-01 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Index

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, "Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis." The amendments in this ASU are intended to improve targeted areas of consolidation guidance for legal entities such as limited partnerships, limited liability corporations, and securitization structures (collateralized debt obligations, collateralized loan obligations, and mortgage-backed security transactions). In addition to reducing the number of consolidation models from four to two, the new standard simplifies the FASB ASC and improves current GAAP by placing more emphasis on risk of loss when determining a controlling financial interest, reducing the frequency of the application of related-party guidance when determining a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity ("VIE"), and changing consolidation conclusions for public and private companies in several industries that typically make use of limited partnerships or VIEs. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. ASU 2015-02 may be applied retrospectively in previously issued financial statements for one or more years with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first year restated. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-02 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, "Interest – Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs." The amendments in this ASU are intended to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs. These amendments require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this ASU. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-03 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-05, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement." The amendments in this ASU provide guidance to customers about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. If a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license, then the customer should account for the software license element of the arrangement consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses. If a cloud computing arrangement does not include a software license, the customer should account for the arrangement as a service contract. The amendments do not change the accounting for a customer's accounting for service contracts. As a result of the amendments, all software licenses within the scope of Subtopic 350-40 will be accounted for consistent with other licenses of intangible assets. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. An entity can elect to adopt the amendments either: (1) prospectively to all arrangements entered into or materially modified after the effective date, or (2) retrospectively. The Company is currently assessing the impact that ASU 2015-05 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The purpose of this discussion is to focus on important factors affecting the financial condition and results of operations of the Company. The discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains forward-looking statements with respect to the financial condition, results of operations and business of American National Bankshares Inc. (the "Company') and its wholly owned subsidiary, American National Bank and Trust Company (the "Bank"). These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and are based on the beliefs and assumptions of management of the Company and on information available to management at the time these statements and disclosures were prepared. Forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, estimates, risks, and uncertainties that could cause actual conditions, events, or results to differ materially from those stated or implied by such forward-looking statements.

A variety of factors, some of which are discussed in more detail in Item 1A – Risk Factors of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, may affect the operations, performance, business strategy, and results of the Company. Those factors include but are not limited to the following:

·	Financial market volatility, including the level of interest rates could affect the values of financial instruments and the amount of net interest income earned;

·	General economic or business conditions, either nationally or in the market areas in which the Company does business, may be less favorable than expected, resulting in deteriorating credit quality, reduced demand for credit, or a weakened ability to generate deposits;

·	Competition among financial institutions may increase and competitors may have greater financial resources and develop products and technology that enable those competitors to compete more successfully than the Company;

·	Businesses that the Company is engaged in may be adversely affected by legislative or regulatory changes, including changes in accounting standards;

·	The ability to retain key personnel;

·	The failure of assumptions underlying the allowance for loan losses; and

·	Risks associated with mergers and other acquisitions and other expansion activities.

Reclassification

In certain circumstances, reclassifications have been made to prior period information to conform to the 2015 presentation. There were no material reclassifications.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting and reporting policies followed by the Company conform with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and they conform to general practices within the banking industry. The Company's critical accounting policies, which are summarized below, relate to (1) the allowance for loan losses, (2) mergers and acquisitions, (3) acquired loans with specific credit-related deterioration and (4) goodwill impairment. A summary of the Company's significant accounting policies is set forth in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

The financial information contained within the Company's financial statements is, to a significant extent, financial information that is based on measures of the financial effects of transactions and events that have already occurred. A variety of factors could affect the ultimate value that is obtained when earning income, recognizing an expense, recovering an asset, or relieving a liability. In addition, GAAP itself may change from one previously acceptable method to another method.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The purpose of the allowance for loan losses ("ALLL") is to provide for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The allowance is increased by the provision for loan losses and by recoveries of previously charged-off loans. Loan charge-offs decrease the allowance.

The goal of the Company is to maintain an appropriate, systematic, and consistently applied process to determine the amounts of the ALLL and the provision for loan loss expense.

The Company uses certain practices to manage its credit risk. These practices include (1) appropriate lending limits for loan officers, (2) a loan approval process, (3) careful underwriting of loan requests, including analysis of borrowers, cash flows, collateral, and market risks, (4) regular monitoring of the portfolio, including diversification by type and geography, (5) review of loans by the Loan Review department, which operates independently of loan production, (6) regular meetings of the Credit Committee to discuss portfolio and policy changes and make decisions on large or unusual loan requests, and (7) regular meetings of the Asset Quality Committee which reviews the status of individual loans.

Risk grades are assigned as part of the loan origination process. From time to time, risk grades may be modified as warranted by the facts and circumstances surrounding the credit.

Calculation and analysis of the ALLL is prepared quarterly by the Finance Department. The Company's Credit Committee, Capital Management Committee, Audit Committee, and the Board of Directors review the allowance for adequacy.

The Company's ALLL has two basic components: the formula allowance and the specific allowance. Each of these components is determined based upon estimates and judgments.

The formula allowance uses historical loss experience as an indicator of future losses, along with various qualitative factors, including levels and trends in delinquencies, nonaccrual loans, charge-offs and recoveries, trends in volume and terms of loans, effects of changes in underwriting standards, experience of lending staff, economic conditions, portfolio concentrations, regulatory, legal, competition, quality of loan review system, and value of underlying collateral. In the formula allowance for commercial and commercial real estate loans, the historical loss rate is combined with the qualitative factors, resulting in an adjusted loss factor for each risk-grade category of loans. The period-end balances for each loan risk-grade category are multiplied by the adjusted loss factor. Allowance calculations for residential real estate and consumer loans are calculated based on historical losses for each product category without regard to risk grade. This loss rate is combined with qualitative factors resulting in an adjusted loss factor for each product category.

The specific allowance uses various techniques to arrive at an estimate of loss for specifically identified impaired loans. These include:

The present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate. The effective interest rate on a loan is the rate of return implicit in the loan (that is, the contractual interest rate adjusted for any net deferred loan fees or costs and any premium or discount existing at the origination or acquisition of the loan);

·	The loan's observable market price, or

·	The fair value of the collateral, net of estimated costs to dispose, if the loan is collateral dependent.

Index

The use of these computed values is inherently subjective and actual losses could be greater or less than the estimates.

No single statistic, formula, or measurement determines the adequacy of the allowance. Management makes subjective and complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain, and different amounts would be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. For analytical purposes, management allocates a portion of the allowance to specific loan categories and specific loans. However, the entire allowance is used to absorb credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio, including identified and unidentified losses.

The relationships and ratios used in calculating the allowance, including the qualitative factors, may change from period to period as facts and circumstances evolve. Furthermore, management cannot provide assurance that in any particular period the Bank will not have sizeable credit losses in relation to the amount reserved. Management may find it necessary to significantly adjust the allowance, considering current factors at the time.

Mergers and Acquisitions

Business combinations are accounted for under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805, Business Combinations, using the acquisition method of accounting. The acquisition method of accounting requires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at the acquisition date measured at their fair values as of that date. To determine the fair values, the Company will rely on third party valuations, such as appraisals, or internal valuations based on discounted cash flow analyses or other valuation techniques. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the Company will identify the acquirer and the closing date and apply applicable recognition principles and conditions.

Acquisition-related costs are costs the Company incurs to effect a business combination. Those costs include advisory, legal, accounting, valuation, and other professional or consulting fees. Some other examples of costs to the Company include systems conversions, integration planning consultants and advertising costs. The Company will account for acquisition-related costs as expenses in the periods in which the costs are incurred and the services are received, with one exception. The costs to issue debt or equity securities will be recognized in accordance with other applicable GAAP. These acquisition-related costs have been and will be included within the Consolidated Statements of Income classified within the noninterest expense caption.

Acquired Loans with Specific Credit-Related Deterioration

Acquired loans with specific credit deterioration are accounted for by the Company in accordance with FASB ASC 310-30, Receivables - Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. Certain acquired loans, those for which specific credit-related deterioration, since origination, is identified, are recorded at fair value reflecting the present value of the amounts expected to be collected. Income recognition on these loans is based on a reasonable expectation about the timing and amount of cash flows to be collected. Acquired loans deemed impaired and considered collateral dependent, with the timing of the sale of loan collateral indeterminate, remain on non-accrual status and have no accretable yield.

Goodwill Impairment

The Company performs its annual analysis as of June 30 each fiscal year. Accounting guidance permits preliminary assessment of qualitative factors to determine whether more substantial impairment testing is required. The Company chose to bypass the preliminary assessment and utilized a two-step process for impairment testing of goodwill. The first step tests for impairment, while the second step, if necessary, measures the impairment. No indicators of impairment were identified during the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012.

Non-GAAP Presentations

Non-GAAP presentations are provided because the Company believes these may be valuable to investors. These include (1) the analysis of net interest income presented on a taxable equivalent basis to facilitate performance comparisons among various taxable and tax-exempt assets and (2) the impact to net interest income and pretax income from accretable and amortizable fair value adjustments attributable to the merger with MidCarolina Financial Corporation ("MidCarolina") in July 2011 and MainStreet BankShares, Inc., ("MainStreet") in January 2015.

Internet Access to Corporate Documents

The Company provides access to its Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") filings through a link on the Investors Relations page of the Company's web site at www.amnb.com. Reports available include annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and all amendments to those reports as soon as reasonably practicable after the reports are filed electronically with the SEC. The information on the Company's website is not incorporated into this report or any other filing the Company makes with the SEC. The SEC maintains an Internet site that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC at www.sec.gov.

ACQUISITION OF MAINSTREET BANKSHARES, INC.

On January 1, 2015, the Company completed its acquisition of MainStreet. The merger of MainStreet with and into the Company was effected pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, dated as of August 24, 2014, between the Company and MainStreet, and a related Plan of Merger. Immediately after the merger of MainStreet into the Company, Franklin Community Bank, N.A., MainStreet's wholly-owned bank subsidiary, merged with and into the Bank.

Pursuant to the MainStreet merger agreement, the former holders of shares of MainStreet common stock received $3.46 in cash and 0.482 shares of the Company's common stock for each share of MainStreet common stock held immediately prior to the effective date of the merger, plus cash in lieu of fractional shares. Each option to purchase shares of MainStreet common stock that was outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of the merger vested upon the merger and was converted into an option to purchase shares of the Company's common stock, adjusted based on a 0.643 exchange ratio. Each share of the Company's common stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger remained outstanding and was unaffected by the merger. The cash portion of the merger consideration was funded through a cash dividend of $6,000,000 from the Bank to the Company, and no borrowing was incurred by the Company or the Bank in connection with the merger.

MainStreet was the holding company for Franklin Community Bank, N.A. As of January 1, 2015, MainStreet had net loans of approximately $121,000,000, total assets of approximately $165,000,000, and total deposits of approximately $137,000,000. Franklin Community Bank, N.A. provided banking services to its customers from three banking offices located in Rocky Mount, Hardy, and Union Hall, Virginia, which are now branch offices of the Bank.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Earnings Performance

Three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014

For the quarter ended March 31, 2015, the Company reported net income of $3,515,000 compared to $3,450,000 for the comparable quarter in 2014. The $65,000 or 1.9% increase in earnings was primarily due to the large increase in earnings assets related to the acquisition of MainStreet.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is the difference between interest income on earning assets, primarily loans and securities, and interest expense on interest bearing liabilities, primarily deposits and other funding sources. Fluctuations in interest rates as well as volume and mix changes in earning assets and interest bearing liabilities can materially impact net interest income. The following discussion of net interest income is presented on a taxable equivalent basis to facilitate performance comparisons among various taxable and tax-exempt assets, such as certain state and municipal securities. A tax rate of 35% was used in adjusting interest on tax-exempt assets to a fully taxable equivalent basis. Net interest income divided by average earning assets is referred to as the net interest margin. The net interest spread represents the difference between the average rate earned on earning assets and the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities.

Index

Three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014

Net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis increased $1,883,000 or 17.1%, for the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same quarter of 2014. This change was mostly driven by an increase in average earning assets of $195,913,000 or 16.5%, primarily related to the acquisition of MainStreet.

For the first quarter of 2015, the Company's yield on interest-earning assets was 4.16%, compared to 4.22% for the first quarter of 2014. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 0.57% compared to 0.67%. The interest rate spread was 3.59% compared to 3.55%. The net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, was 3.73% compared to 3.71%, an increase of two basis points (0.02%).

The following presentation is an analysis of net interest income and related yields and rates, on a taxable equivalent basis, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014. Nonaccrual loans are included in average balances. Interest income on nonaccrual loans, if recognized, is recorded on a cash basis or when the loan returns to accrual status.

Noninterest Income

All comparisons discussed below are between the first quarter of 2015 and the first quarter of 2014.

Noninterest income increased to $3,156,000 in 2015 from $2,703,000 in 2014, an increase of $453,000 or 16.8%. The major factors impacting that change are discussed below.

Fees from the management of trusts, estates, and asset management accounts decreased to $952,000 in 2015 from $1,122,000 in 2014, a reduction of $170,000 or 15.2%. Approximately $110,000 of this decrease was related to one-time revenue items recognized in the 2014 quarter related to certain estate fees. A substantial portion of trust fees are earned based on account market values, so changes in the equity markets may have a large and potentially volatile impact on revenue. There was no immediate trust business benefit from the acquisition of MainStreet.

Service charges on deposit accounts were $497,000 in 2015 compared to $413,000 in 2014, an increase of $84,000 or 20.3%. This change was mostly related to the acquisition of MainStreet.

Other fees and commissions were $588,000 in 2015 compared to $444,000 in 2014, an increase of $144,000 or 32.4%. This change was impacted by a number of factors, the most notable of which was an increase in income from two Small Business Investment Company ("SBIC") limited partnerships of $207,000 and an increase in brokerage income of $71,000.

Mortgage banking income was $222,000 in 2015 compared to $263,000 in 2014, a decrease of $41,000 or 15.6%. Recent increases in mortgage interest rates have slowed demand for residential mortgage loans and have, accordingly, reduced volume and income. Secondary mortgage loan volume was down 7.8% for the 2015 quarter compared to the same quarter last year. Prior to the merger, MainStreet did not have a large volume of secondary market mortgage loan activity.

Index

Securities gains were $310,000 in 2015 compared to $39,000 in 2014. The Company slightly reduced its municipal bond exposure in the state of Texas as a result of economic concerns generated by the large fall in the price of oil during 2014.

Other income was $587,000 in 2015 compared to $422,000 in 2014, an increase of $165,000 or 39.1%. The major drivers of this increase were brokerage income, which was up $71,000 from the prior year quarter, and income from an equity investment in a SBIC, which was up $208,000 over the comparable period. Income from the SBIC investments is unpredictable. Income from investments in Bankers Insurance LLC and Virginia Title Center was down $133,000, but this related to the timing of income distributions.

Noninterest Expense

All comparisons discussed below are between the first quarter of 2015 and the first quarter of 2014. Most major increases are related to the January 1, 2015 merger with MainStreet.

Noninterest expense was $10,047,000 in 2015 compared to $8,423,000 in 2014, an increase of $1,624,000 or 19.3%. The major factors impacting that change are discussed below.

Salaries were $4,147,000 in 2015 compared to $3,538,000 in 2014, an increase of $609,000 or 17.2%. Of this increase, approximately $424,000 is related to the MainStreet acquisition and the remainder was related to normal yearly payroll adjustments. Total full time equivalent employees related to the MainStreet acquisition were 35.5 at the end of the first quarter. Management anticipates a reduction of 12 full time equivalents ("FTEs") after completion of the operational and data processing integration of the bank systems in mid-May 2015. The annualized savings related to that pending reduction is approximately $584,000.

Employee benefits were $1,075,000 in 2015 compared to $975,000 in 2014, an increase of 100,000 or 10.3%. This change was primarily related to the increase in FTEs resulting from the acquisition of MainStreet.

Occupancy and equipment expense was $1,172,000 in 2015 and $936,000 in 2014, an increase of $236,000 or 25.2%. Almost the entire increase was the result of the acquisition of the MainStreet and the addition of three new banking offices. Of this increase, $109,000 or 46.2% relates to lease expense on two of the Franklin offices.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") assessment for deposit insurance was $185,000 in 2015 compared to $164,000 in 2014, an increase of $21,000 or 12.8%. The change was related to the increase in our assessment base resulting from the acquisition of MainStreet.

Bank franchise tax expense was $235,000 in 2015 compared to $222,000 in 2014, an increase of $13,000 or 5.9%. This change was related to growth in the legacy bank and management does not expect much impact from the MainStreet acquisition until next year.

Core deposit intangible amortization was $301,000 in 2015 compared to $331,000 in 2014, a decrease of $30,000 or 9.1%. Core deposit amortization from both the MidCarolina and MainStreet acquisitions are computed on an accelerated basis and will continue to decrease year over year.

Data processing expense was $462,000 in 2015 compared to $348,000 in 2014, an increase of $114,000 or 32.8%. The increase is related to increased utilization of the Company's new core information management system and data processing expense for MainStreet which will not be integrated into our system until mid-May 2015.

Software expense was $283,000 in 2015 compared to $262,000 in 2014, an increase of $21,000 or 8.0%. This increase was primarily due to upgrades to the Company's data processing infrastructure.

Other real estate owned ("OREO") expense was $53,000 for 2015 compared to $16,000 for 2014, an increase of $37,000 or 231.3%. This expense category is historically volatile period to period. OREO expense includes gains and losses on sale of foreclosed properties, adjustments related to re-appraisals of foreclosed properties, and operating expenses related to maintaining foreclosed properties. Total OREO related expenses for the first quarter of 2015 and 2014 are shown in the following table (dollars in thousands):

	$	53		$	16

Merger related expenses were $359,000 in 2015 related to the MainStreet merger. There were no merger related expenses in 2014. Management expects to incur significant merger related costs in the second quarter of 2015 due to the data processing conversion, anticipated in mid-May.

Other expenses were $1,775,000 in 2015 compared to $1,631,000 in 2014, an increase of $144,000 or 8.8%. This change was the result of various expense categories increasing as a result of higher volume of activity.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2015 was 28.1% compared to 27.2% for 2014. The effective tax rate is lower than the statutory rate of 35% due to income that is not taxable for Federal income tax purposes. The primary non-taxable income is that of state and municipal securities and industrial revenue bonds and loans.

Fair Value Impact to Net Income

Index

Generally accepted accounting principles for business combinations require the acquired balance sheet be valued at fair value at the time of the merger. In the context of acquiring a commercial bank, most of the balance sheet is interest rate sensitive and this can generate significant discounts or premiums to contractual values. These discounts or premiums will have potentially significant impact to income.

The MidCarolina acquisition was closed in July 2011. The financial impact to pretax income this quarter of the fair value related accounting adjustments was $184,000, compared to $661,000 for the first quarter of 2014. Management anticipates this impact will continue to decline during the remainder of the year.

The MainStreet acquisition was closed in January 2015. The acquisition was much smaller in asset, loan and deposit size than the MidCarolina acquisition. The financial impact to pretax income this quarter of the fair value related accounting adjustments was $629,000. The ongoing impact of these adjustments will be significantly less than those experienced from the MidCarolina acquisition. Management expects that this impact will decline rapidly in subsequent quarters.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

The majority of assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature and therefore differ greatly from most commercial and industrial companies that have significant investments in fixed assets or inventories. The most significant effect of inflation is on noninterest expense, which tends to rise during periods of inflation. Changes in interest rates have a greater impact on a financial institution's profitability than do the effects of higher costs for goods and services. Through its balance sheet management practices, the Company has the ability to react to those changes and measure and monitor its interest rate and liquidity risk. During the reported periods, inflation and interest rates have been low.

CHANGES IN FINANCIAL POSITION

BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS

Securities

The securities portfolio generates income, plays a major role in the management of interest rate sensitivity, provides a source of liquidity, is used to meet collateral requirements for public deposits, and facilitates commercial customers' repurchase agreements. The portfolio consists primarily of high credit quality, very liquid securities. Federal agency and U. S. government sponsored enterprises, mortgage-backed securities, state and municipal securities, and corporates comprise the portfolio.

The available for sale securities portfolio was $352,208,000 at March 31, 2015, compared to $344,716,000 at December 31, 2014, an increase of $7,492,000 or 2.2%. The Company acquired $19,387,000 in securities in the MainStreet acquisition. However, the impact of that increase was mitigated by a combination of calls, sales, and maturities in the existing portfolio. At March 31, 2015, the available for sale portfolio had an amortized cost of $342,290,000, resulting in a net unrealized gain of $9,918,000. At December 31, 2014, the available for sale portfolio had an amortized cost of $335,723,000, resulting in a net unrealized gain of $8,993,000.

The Company is aware of the relatively low, acutely uncertain current interest rate environment and has elected to maintain an investment strategy of purchasing high quality taxable securities of relatively short duration and longer term high quality, tax exempt securities, whose market values are not as volatile in rising rate environments as similarly termed taxable investments. The Company manages its investment portfolio on an aggregate portfolio basis for purposes of monitoring average life and duration. Accordingly, some individual purchases may fall outside these overall guidelines. The Company will attempt to deploy its cash to the maximum extent practical and prudent, consistent with its liquidity and asset liability strategy.

Loans

The loan portfolio consists primarily of commercial and residential real estate loans, commercial loans to small and medium-sized businesses, construction and land development loans, and home equity loans.

Total loans were $965,902,000 at March 31, 2015, compared to $840,925,000 at December 31, 2014, an increase of $124,977,000 or 14.9%. Of this increase, $112,901,000 or 90.3% relates directly to the merger with MainStreet. The remainder of the increase, $12,076,000, represents first quarter 2015 organic growth of 1.4%.

Loans held for sale totaled $1,936,000 at March 31, 2015 and $616,000 at December 31, 2014, an increase of $1,320,000 or 214.3%. This increase reflects an increased level of mortgage volume compared to year end, but a lower volume than the first quarter of 2014.

Index

Management of the loan portfolio is organized around segments. Each segment is comprised of various loan types that are reflective of operational and regulatory management and reporting requirements. The following table presents the Company's loan portfolio by segment as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 (dollars in thousands):


	March 31,		December 31,
	2015		2014

Commercial	$	146,280	$	126,981
Commercial real estate:
Construction and land development		68,069		50,863
Commercial real estate		436,562		391,472
Residential real estate:
Residential		211,261		175,293
Home equity		97,811		91,075
Consumer		5,919		5,241
Total loans	$	965,902	$	840,925

Provision for Loan Losses

Provision for loan losses was $600,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2015, compared to $0 for the quarter ended March 31, 2014.

The need for additional provision expense was impacted by positive organic growth trends over the past several quarters, a small increase in loan charge offs during the quarter, and the regular quarterly review of cash flow expectations related to acquired loans with deteriorated credit quality.

Allowance for Loan Losses ("ALLL")

The purpose of the ALLL is to provide for probable losses in the loan portfolio. The allowance is increased by the provision for loan losses and by recoveries of previously charged-off loans. Loan charge-offs decrease the allowance.

At March 31, 2015, the ALLL was $12,844,000 compared to $12,427,000 at December 31, 2014. The ALLL as a percentage of total loans was 1.33% and 1.48%, respectively. The decrease in the allowance as a percentage of loans was impacted by the merger with MainStreet. The purchased loan portfolio from MainStreet was discounted to fair value and no allowance was included in the merger transaction.

During the first three months of 2015, the loan portfolio increased by $124,977,000 or 14.9%, of which $112,901,000 was directly related to the merger with MainStreet and $12,076,000 was organic growth in pre-merger existing markets.

In an effort to better evaluate the adequacy of its ALLL, the Company computes its ASC 450 loan balance by reducing total loans by acquired loans and loans that were evaluated for impairment individually or smaller balance nonaccrual loans evaluated for impairment in homogeneous pools. The ASC 450 loan loss reserve balance is the total ALLL reduced by allowances associated with these other pools of loans.

The general allowance, ASC 450 (FAS 5) reserves to ASC 450 loans, was 1.53% at March 31, 2015, compared to 1.55% at December 31, 2014. On a dollar basis, the reserve was $11,806,000 at March 31, 2015, compared to $11,716,000 at December 31, 2014. This segment of the allowance represents by far the largest portion of the loan portfolio and the largest aggregate risk.

The specific allowance, ASC 310-40 (FAS 114) reserves to ASC 310-40 loans, was 2.20% at March 31, 2015, compared to 3.64% at December 31, 2014. On a dollar basis, the reserve was $116,000 at March 31, 2015, compared to $165,000 at December 31, 2014. The decrease in the dollar amount of the reserve was related to changes in characteristics of loans reviewed individually for impairment. There is ongoing turnover in the composition of the impaired loan population, which increased by a net $756,000 over December 31, 2014. However, these newly evaluated impaired loans did not have an impact on the overall impairment allowance.

The specific allowance does not include reserves related to acquired loans with deteriorated credit quality. This reserve was $922,000 at March 31, 2015, compared to $546,000 at December 31, 2014. This is the only portion of the reserve related to acquired loans. Cash flow expectations for these loans are reviewed on a quarterly basis and unfavorable changes in those estimates relative to the initial estimates can result in the need for loan loss provision. The increase in this impairment for the current period is related to the extended timing of expected cash flows, resulting from renewals, on some of larger loans in this portfolio.

(1) - annualized

The allowance to loans and the allowance to nonperforming loans were negatively impacted by the acquisition of $114,900,000 in acquired loans from the MainStreet acquisition. These loans were marked to fair value at the merger date and their related allowance for loan loss was eliminated.

Nonperforming Assets (Loans and Other Real Estate Owned)

Nonperforming loans include loans on which interest is no longer accrued and accruing loans that are contractually past due 90 days or more. Nonperforming loans include loans originated and loans acquired.

Nonperforming loans to total loans were 0.53% at March 31, 2015 and 0.49% at December 31, 2014.

Nonperforming assets include nonperforming loans and OREO. Nonperforming assets represented 0.50% of total assets at March 31, 2015, up from 0.46% at December 31, 2014. This increase was related to the MainStreet acquisition.

In most cases, it is the policy of the Company that any loan that becomes 90 days past due will automatically be placed on nonaccrual loan status, accrued interest reversed out of income, and further interest accrual ceased. Any payments received on such loans will be credited to principal. In some cases a loan in process of renewal may become 90 days past due. In these instances the loan may still be accruing because of a delayed renewal process in which the customer has not been billed. Loans will only be restored to full accrual status after nine consecutive months of payments that were each less than 30 days delinquent.

The $5,123,000 in nonaccrual loans shown on the following table includes: $2,240,000 in impaired loans individually evaluated for impairment; $1,350,000 in nonaccrual loan pools of smaller balance, homogenous loans, which were collectively evaluated for impairment (based on their collateral position and an improving payment history that still warrants nonaccrual status under internal policy guidelines, these loans were considered to have no dollar impairment); and $1,533,000 in loans with deteriorated credit quality acquired from both the MainStreet and MidCarolina mergers.

Impaired Loans

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The following table shows loans that were considered impaired, exclusive of acquired impaired loans as of March 31, 2015, and December 31, 2014 (dollars in thousands):

Impaired Loans

	March 31,		December 31,
	2015		2014

Accruing	$	1,703	$	989
Nonaccruing		3,590		3,548
Total impaired loans	$	5,293	$	4,537

Total impaired loans increased $756,000 or 16.7% during the first quarter of 2015. Of this increase, approximately $476,000 or 63.0% related to loans evaluated collectively for impairment. These loans are real estate secured and nonaccrual, but the Company considers its collateral position sufficient to mitigate the potential for credit loss. The remainder of the increase relates to the net change in the impaired loan population evaluated individually.

Included in the impaired loan totals were $3,174,000 in troubled debt restructured loans at March 31, 2015 and $2,862,000 at December 31, 2014.

Other Real Estate Owned

Other real estate owned was were $2,653,000 and $2,119,000 as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Other real estate owned is initially recorded at fair value, less estimated costs to sell, at the date of foreclosure. Loan losses resulting from foreclosure are charged against the ALLL at that time. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of the new cost basis or fair value, less estimated costs to sell with any additional write-downs charged against earnings. For significant assets, these valuations are typically outside annual appraisals.

Deposits

The Company's deposits consist primarily of checking, money market, savings, and consumer time deposits. Total deposits were $1,242,675,000 at March 31, 2015 compared to $1,075,837,000 at December 31, 2014, an increase of $166,838,000 or 15.5%. Of the increase, $135,568,000 or 81.3% was directly related to the MainStreet merger.

The Company's primary focus on the liability side of the balance sheet is growing core deposits and their affiliated relationships. The challenge in this ongoing low rate environment is to fund the Bank in a cost effective and competitive manner. The Company's cost of deposits for the first quarter 2015 was 0.52%, down from 0.60% for the first quarter 2014.

Shareholders' Equity

The Company's capital management strategy is to be classified as "well capitalized" under regulatory capital ratios and provide as high as possible total return to shareholders.

Shareholders' equity was $196,689,000 at March 31, 2015 compared to $173,780,000 at December 31, 2014, an increase of $22,909,000 or 13.2%. In connection with the MainStreet merger, the Company issued 825,586 shares of common stock with a market value at January 1, 2015 of $20,483,000, accounting for 89.4% of the change in equity.

The Company paid cash dividends of $0.23 per share during the first three months of 2015 while the aggregate basic and diluted earnings per share for the same period was $0.40 per share.

In July 2013, the Federal Reserve issued final rules that make technical changes to its capital rules to align them with the Basel III regulatory capital framework and meet certain requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act. The final rules maintain the general structure of the prompt corrective action framework in effect at such time while incorporating certain increased minimum requirements. Effective January 1, 2015, the final rules require the Company and the Bank to comply with the following minimum capital ratios: (i) a new common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.5% of risk-weighted assets; (ii) a Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.0% of risk-weighted assets (increased from the prior requirement of 4.0%); (iii) a total capital ratio of 8.0% of risk-weighted assets (unchanged from the prior requirement); and (iv) a leverage ratio of 4.0% of total assets (unchanged from the prior requirement). These are the initial capital requirements, which will be phased in over a four-year period. When fully phased in on January 1, 2019, the rules will require the Company and the Bank to maintain such minimum ratios plus a 2.5% "capital conservation buffer" (other than for the leverage ratio). The capital conservation buffer requirement will be phased in beginning January 1, 2016, at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets, increasing by the same amount each year until fully implemented at 2.5% on January 1, 2019. Management believes the Company and the Bank will be compliant with the fully phased-in requirements when they become effective January 1, 2019.

The following table provides information on the regulatory capital ratios for the Company and the Bank at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Management believes, as of March 31, 2015, that the Company and the Bank more than satisfy all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

	Percentage				Percentage
	At March 31, 2015				At December 31, 2014
Risk-Based Capital Ratios:	Company		Bank		Company		Bank

Common equity tier 1 capital ratio		13.40		15.19		-		-

Liquidity

Liquidity is the ability of the Company to convert assets into cash or cash equivalents without significant loss and to raise additional funds by increasing liabilities in a timely manner. Liquidity management involves maintaining the Company's ability to meet the daily cash flow requirements of its customers, whether they are borrowers requiring funds or depositors desiring to withdraw funds. Additionally, the Company requires cash for various operating needs including dividends to shareholders, the servicing of debt, and the payment of general corporate expenses. The Company manages its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates through policies approved by the Asset Liability Committee ("ALCO") and Board of Directors, both of which receive periodic reports of the Company's interest rate risk and liquidity position. The Company uses a computer simulation model to assist in the management of the future liquidity needs of the Company.

Liquidity sources include on balance sheet and off balance sheet sources.

Balance sheet liquidity sources include cash, amounts due from banks, loan repayments, and increases in deposits. The Company also maintains a large, high quality, very liquid bond portfolio, which is generally 50% to 60% unpledged and would, accordingly, be available for sale if necessary.

Off balance sheet sources include lines of credit from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta ("FHLB"), federal funds lines of credit, and access to the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond's discount window.

The Company has a line of credit with the FHLB, equal to 30% of the Bank's assets, subject to the amount of collateral pledged. Under the terms of its collateral agreement with the FHLB, the Company provides a blanket lien covering all of its residential first mortgage loans and home equity lines of credit. In addition, the Company pledges as collateral its capital stock in and deposits with the FHLB. At March 31, 2015, principal advance obligations to the FHLB consisted of $9,941,000 in fixed-rate, long-term advances compared to $9,935,000 in fixed-rate, long term advances at December 31, 2014. The Company also had outstanding $72,700,000 in letters of credit at March 31, 2015 and at December 31, 2014. The letters of credit provide the Bank with alternate collateral for securing public entity deposits above FDIC insurance levels, thereby providing less need for collateral pledging from the securities portfolio, and thereby maximizing on balance sheet liquidity.

Short-term borrowings are discussed in Note 7 and long-term borrowings are discussed in Note 8 in the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report.

The Company has federal funds lines of credit established with two correspondent banks in the amounts of $15,000,000 and $10,000,000, and has access to the Federal Reserve Bank's discount window. There were no amounts outstanding under these facilities at March 31, 2015.

The Company has a relationship with Promontory Network, the sponsoring entity for the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service® ("CDARS"). Through CDARS, the Company is able to provide deposit customers with access to aggregate FDIC insurance in amounts exceeding $250,000. This gives the Company the ability, as and when needed, to attract and retain large deposits from insurance conscious customers. CDARS are classified as brokered deposits, however they are generally derived from customers with whom the Company has or wishes to have a direct and ongoing relationship. As a result, management considers these deposits functionally, though not technically, core deposits. With CDARS, the Company has the option to keep deposits on balance sheet or sell them to other members of the network. Additionally, subject to certain limits, the Bank can use CDARS to purchase cost-effective funding without collateralization and in lieu of generating funds through traditional brokered CDs or the FHLB. In this manner, CDARS can provide the Company with another funding option. Thus, CDARS serves as a deposit-gathering tool and an additional liquidity management tool. Deposits through the CDARS program as of March 31, 2015 and December, 31, 2014, were $23,953,000 and $22,255,000, respectively.

Management believes that these sources provide sufficient and timely liquidity, both on and off the balance sheet.

Index

Off-Balance Sheet Activities

The Company enters into certain financial transactions in the ordinary course of performing traditional banking services that result in off-balance sheet transactions. Other than subsidiaries to issue trust preferred securities, the Company does not have any off-balance sheet subsidiaries. Off-balance sheet transactions were as follows for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and the year ended December 31, 2014 (dollars in thousands):

	March 31,		December 31,
	2015		2014

Commitments to extend credit	$	238,184	$	190,413
Standby letters of credit		4,373		3,333
Mortgage loan rate-lock commitments		8,193		3,372

Commitments to extend credit to customers represent legally binding agreements with fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being funded, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future funding requirements. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company guaranteeing the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market Risk Management

Effectively managing market risk is essential to achieving the Company's financial objectives. Market risk reflects the risk of economic loss resulting from changes in interest rates and market prices. The Company is generally not subject to currency exchange risk or commodity price risk. The Company's primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk; however, market risk also includes liquidity risk. Both are discussed in the following sections.

Interest Rate Risk Management

Interest rate risk and its impact on net interest income is a primary market risk exposure. The Company manages its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates through policies approved by its ALCO and Board of Directors, both of which receive and review periodic reports of the Company's interest rate risk position.

The Company uses computer simulation analysis to measure the sensitivity of projected earnings to changes in interest rates. Simulation takes into account current balance sheet volumes and the scheduled repricing dates instrument level optionality, and maturities of assets and liabilities. It incorporates numerous assumptions including growth, changes in the mix of assets and liabilities, prepayments, and average rates earned and paid. Based on this information, management uses the model to project net interest income under multiple interest rate scenarios.

A balance sheet is considered asset sensitive when its earning assets (loans and securities) reprice faster or to a greater extent than its liabilities (deposits and borrowings). An asset sensitive balance sheet will produce relatively more net interest income when interest rates rise and less net interest income when they decline. Based on the Company's simulation analysis, management believes the Company's interest sensitivity position at March 31, 2015 is asset sensitive. Management has no expectation that market interest rates will materially decline in the near term, given the prevailing economy and apparent policy of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

Earnings Simulation

The following tables shows the estimated impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income as of March 31, 2015 assuming instantaneous rate shocks, and consistent levels of assets and liabilities. Net interest income for the following twelve months is projected to increase when interest rates are higher than current rates (dollars in thousands):

Index

Estimated Changes in Net Interest Income

	March 31, 2015
	Change in Net Interest Income

Change in interest rates	Amount			Percent

Up 4.00%	$	7,149			14.7
Up 3.00%		5,442			11.2
Up 2.00%		3,623			7.4
Up 1.00%		1,768			3.6
Flat		-			-
Down 0.25%		(695	)		(1.3	)
Down 0.50%		(1,384	)		(2.8	)

Management cannot predict future interest rates or their exact effect on net interest income. Computations of future effects of hypothetical interest rate changes are based on numerous assumptions and should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results. Certain limitations are inherent in such computations. Assets and liabilities may react differently than projected to changes in market interest rates. The interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while rates on other types of assets and liabilities may lag changes in market interest rates. Interest rate shifts may not be parallel.

Changes in interest rates can cause substantial changes in the amount of prepayments of loans and mortgage-backed securities, which may in turn affect the Company's interest rate sensitivity position. Additionally, credit risk may rise if an interest rate increase adversely affects the ability of borrowers to service their debt.

Economic Value Simulation

Economic value simulation is used to calculate the estimated fair value of assets and liabilities over different interest rate environments. Economic values are calculated based on discounted cash flow analysis. The net economic value of equity is the economic value of all assets minus the economic value of all liabilities. The change in net economic value over different rate environments is an indication of the longer-term earnings capability of the balance sheet. The same assumptions are used in the economic value simulation as in the earnings simulation. The economic value simulation uses instantaneous rate shocks to the balance sheet.

The following table reflects the estimated change in net economic value over different rate environments using economic value simulation for the balances at the period ended March 31, 2015 (dollars in thousands):

Estimated Changes in Economic Value of Equity

	March 31, 2015

Change in interest rates	Amount		$ Change			% Change

Up 4.00%	$	244,944	$	33,769			16.0	%
Up 3.00%		241,083		29,908			14.2
Up 2.00%		234,362		23,187			11.0
Up 1.00%		223,768		12,593			6.0
Flat		211,175		-			-
Down 0.25%		206,673		(4,502	)		(2.1	)
Down 0.50%		201,976		(9,199	)		(4.4	)

Increases in interest rates over the past two quarters have had a negative impact on the economic value of the Company's assets. However, this has been more than offset by the positive impact the rate increases have had on the economic value of the Company's liabilities.

Due to the current low interest rate environment, no measurement was considered necessary for a further decline in interest rates.

Index

There have been no material changes to market risk as disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. Refer to those disclosures for further information.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")), as of March 31, 2015. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms. There were no significant changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2015, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The nature of the business of the Company ordinarily results in a certain amount of litigation. The Company is involved in various legal proceedings, all of which are considered incidental to the normal conduct of business. Management believes that these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations of the Company.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 filed with the SEC on March 9, 2015.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

On April 17, 2014, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to 250,000 shares of the Company's outstanding common stock for a period of two years. Repurchases may be made through open market purchases or in privately negotiated transactions, and shares repurchased will be returned to the status of authorized and unissued shares of common stock. The actual timing, number, and value of shares repurchased under the program will be determined by management.

No shares of the Company's common stock were repurchased during the three months ended March 31, 2015. Under the share repurchase program, the Company has the remaining authority to repurchase up to 179,816 shares of the Company's common stock as of March 31, 2015.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

This Employment Agreement (this "Agreement") is dated as of March 2, 2015 by and between American National Bankshares, Inc., a Virginia corporation (the "Company"), and R. Helm Dobbins.

WHEREAS, you have been and continue to be a key executive of the Company;

WHEREAS, the Company considers the availability of your services to be important to the management and conduct of the Company's business and the Board of Directors of the Company has determined that an employment agreement should be prepared and entered into in order to secure the continued availability of your services; and

WHEREAS, you are willing to make your services available to the Company on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

The parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

1. Employment and Acceptance. You shall be employed as Executive Vice President and Chief Credit Officer of the Company. You shall have the duties and responsibilities that are commensurate with your position and shall also render such other services and duties as may be reasonably assigned you from time to time by the Board of Directors of the Company, consistent with your position with the Company, including serving in a senior executive capacity with any one or more of the Company's Affiliates (as defined below). You hereby accept and agree to such employment and agree to carry-out your duties and responsibilities to the best of your ability in a competent, efficient and businesslike manner. You further agree to comply with all the policies, standards and codes of conduct of the Company now or hereafter adopted.

Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this Agreement to the "Company" also shall mean and refer to American National Bank (the "Bank") and any other business entity that, directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, is controlled by, or is under common control with the Company (each, an "Affiliate").

2. Term. This Agreement is effective as of January 1, 2015 and will expire on December 31, 2017 (the "Initial Three Year Term"); provided that on and after January 1, 2017 (the second anniversary of this Agreement) the Initial Three Year Term shall be automatically extended by one day on each day that passes while you are employed pursuant to this Agreement (including any day after the end of the Initial Three Year Term) so that there will always be one year remaining in the term of this Agreement (the Initial Three Year Term and any extended term of this Agreement is referred to as the "Employment Period"). In the event of the termination of your employment for any reason after January 1, 2017 when the automatic one-day extensions begin, the automatic one-day extensions shall cease as of your last day of employment pursuant to this Agreement. At any time on or after January 1, 2017, the Company may give you written notice that the Employment Period will not be extended on a daily basis ("Nonrenewal Notice"), in which case this Agreement will terminate one year after the date of the Nonrenewal Notice, but not before the completion of the Initial Three Year Term, or such later date as may be specified in the Nonrenewal Notice. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement will automatically terminate on the first day of the month immediately following the month in which you turn seventy (70). The last day of the Employment Period is sometimes referred to in this Agreement as the "Expiration Date."

3. Compensation.

(a) Base Salary.

(vi) the willful engaging by you in conduct that, if it became known by any regulatory or governmental agency or the public, is reasonably likely to result in material injury to the Company, monetarily or otherwise.

(d) Termination by You Without Good Reason. You may terminate your employment under this Agreement without Good Reason (as defined below) by written notice to the Company effective thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice by the Company or at any time upon mutual agreement in writing. If you terminate your employment without Good Reason, you will be entitled to receive the Accrued Amounts as provided in Section 5(b). It shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement for the Company to suspend your duties and to place you on paid leave during the notice period.

(e) Termination by the Company Without Cause. Your employment may be terminated by the Company without Cause at any time at any time upon written notice to you, which termination will be effective immediately or on such later date as specified in the written notice. In the event your employment is terminated without Cause, you shall receive the Accrued Amounts and, provided you sign a release and waiver of claims in favor of the Company and its Affiliates and their respective officers and directors in a form provided by the Company (the "Release") and it becomes effective, you shall receive the following benefits:

The Welfare Continuance Benefit will be paid to you in a lump sum cash payment not later than the 30^th day following the effective date of the Release, subject to compliance with Section 9(i) of this Agreement regarding the requirements of Section 409A of the Code; and

(iv) During the twelve (12) month period following the date of termination, you shall provide the Company with at least ten days written notice before the starting date of any employment, identifying the prospective employer and its affiliated companies and the job description, including a description of the proposed geographic market area associated with the new position. You shall notify in writing any new employer of the existence of the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 7 of this Agreement.

(f) Termination by You for Good Reason. You may voluntarily terminate your employment under this Agreement at any time for Good Reason and be entitled to receive the compensation and other benefits set forth in Section 5(e) relating to a termination without Cause, provided you sign a Release and it becomes effective and you comply with the notice provisions of Section 5(e)(iv).

In the event the Company shall remedy in good faith the event or condition constituting Good Reason, then such notice of termination shall be null and void, and the Company shall not be required to pay the amount due to you under this Section 5(f).

The Company shall not be required to make payment of, or provide any benefit under, this Section 5 to the extent such payment or benefit is prohibited by the regulations presently found at 12 C.F.R.

6. Change in Control Termination.

(a) Change in Control Payments and Benefits. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, if your employment is terminated by you for Good Reason or by the Company on account of its failure to renew the Agreement in accordance with Section 2 or without Cause (other than on account of your death or Incapacity), in each case within twenty four (24) months following a Change in Control, you shall be entitled to receive the following payments and benefits, provided you sign a Release and it becomes effective.

(iii) Consummation by the Company of a reorganization, merger, share exchange or consolidation (a "Reorganization"), provided that the consummation of a Reorganization will not constitute a Change in Control if, upon consummation of the Reorganization, each of the following conditions is satisfied:

(1)

more than 50% of the then outstanding shares of common stock of the corporation resulting from the Reorganization is beneficially owned by all or substantially all of the former shareholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership existed in the Company immediately prior to the Reorganization; and

(2)

at least a majority of the members of the board of directors of the corporation resulting from the Reorganization were members of the Incumbent Board at the time of the execution of the initial agreement providing for the Reorganization; or

(c) Potential Limitation of Benefits Under Certain Circumstances. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that:

(i) the aggregate value of the payments and benefits to which you may be entitled under this Agreement or any other agreement, plan, program or arrangement in connection with a Change in Control that are deemed to be "parachute payments," as defined in Section 280G of the Code or any successor thereof (the "Change in Control Termination Benefits"), would be deemed to include an "excess parachute payment" under Section 280G of the Code;

(ii) if such Change in Control Termination Benefits were reduced to an amount (the "Non-Triggering Amount"), the value of which is one hundred dollars ($100.00) less than an amount equal to three (3) times your "base amount," as determined in accordance with Section 280G of the Code, and;

(iii) the Non-Triggering Amount as reduced by the product of the Non-Triggering Amount and the highest marginal rate of any applicable state and federal income taxes, would represent ninety-five percent (95%) or more of the value of the Change in Control Termination Benefits (without such reduction), as reduced by (x) the amount of tax required to be paid by you thereon pursuant to Section 4999 of the Code and (y) the product of the Change in Control Termination Benefits and the highest marginal rate of any applicable state and federal income taxes,

then the total Change in Control Termination Benefits shall be reduced to the Non-Triggering Amount. The allocation of the reduction in the Change in Control Termination Benefits to the extent required hereby shall be determined by the Company in its reasonable discretion and in a manner that is consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code until no amount or benefit payable to you will be an "excess parachute payment" under Section 280G of the Code. All calculations and determinations under this Section 6(c) shall be made by an independent accounting firm or independent tax counsel appointed by the Company (the "Tax Advisor") whose determinations shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and you for all purposes.

The Company shall bear all costs of the Tax Advisor.

7. Covenants.

(a) Noncompetition. You agree that during the Employment Period and for a one-year period following the expiration of this Agreement or, if sooner, the termination of your employment for any reason during the Employment Period (the "Noncompete Period"), and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5(d) relating to your voluntary termination of employment without Good Reason, you will not directly or indirectly, as a principal, agent, employee, employer, investor, co-partner or in any other individual or representative capacity whatsoever, engage in a Competitive Business anywhere in the Market Area (as such terms are defined below) in any capacity that includes any of the significant duties and responsibilities held or significant activities engaged in by you while employed with the Company or any of its Affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may purchase or otherwise acquire up to (but not more than) 10% of any class of securities of any business enterprise (but without otherwise participating in the activities of such enterprise) that engages in a Competitive Business in the Market Area.

(b) Nonsolicitation. You further agree that during the Employment Period and for a one-year period following the expiration of this Agreement or, if sooner, the termination of your employment for any reason during the Employment Period, you will not directly or indirectly: (i) solicit, or assist any other person in soliciting, any depositors or customers of the Company or its Affiliates to make deposits in, borrow money from, or become customers of any other company conducting a Competitive Business in the Market Area; (ii) induce any customers of the Company or its Affiliates to terminate their relationship with the Company or its Affiliates; or (iii) contact, solicit or assist in the solicitation of any employee to terminate his or her employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates.

(c) Definitions. As used in this Agreement, the term "Competitive Business" means the financial services business, which includes one or more of the following businesses: depository accounts, consumer and commercial lending, residential and commercial mortgage lending, and any other business in which the Company or any of its Affiliates are engaged and in which you are significantly engaged at the time of termination of your employment; the term "Market Area" means the area within a fifteen (15) mile radius of any full-service banking office established by the Bank at the time of termination of your employment; and the term "Confidential Information" shall include, but not be limited to, all financial and personnel data, computer software and all data base technologies, capital plans, customer lists and requirements, market studies, know-how, processes, trade secrets, and any other information concerning the non-public business and affairs of the Company.

(d) Confidentiality. During the Employment Period and thereafter, and except as required by any court, supervisory authority or administrative agency or as may be otherwise required by applicable law, you shall not, without the written consent of a person duly authorized by the Company, disclose to any person (other than your personal attorney, or an employee of the Company or an Affiliate, or a person to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance by you of your duties as an employee of the Company) or utilize in conducting a business any Confidential Information obtained by you while in the employ of the Company, unless such information has become a matter of public knowledge at the time of such disclosure.

(e) Acknowledgment. The covenants contained in this Section 7 shall be construed and interpreted in any proceeding to permit their enforcement to the maximum extent permitted by law. You agree that the restrictions imposed herein are necessary for the reasonable and proper protection of the Company and its Affiliates, and that each and every one of the restrictions is reasonable in respect to length of time, geographic area and scope of prohibited activities, and that the restrictions are neither overly restrictive on your post-employment activity nor overly burdensome for you to abide by. You covenant that you will not make any contention contrary to any of the foregoing representations in the future and agree that you will be estopped to deny or contradict the truth or accuracy of these representations. If, however, the time, geographic and/or scope of activity restrictions set forth in Section 7 are found by a court to exceed the standards deemed enforceable, the court is empowered and directed to modify the restriction(s) to the extent necessary to make them enforceable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prohibit any activity that cannot reasonably be construed to further in any meaningful way any actual or potential competition against the Company or an Affiliate.

(f) Enforcement. You acknowledge that damages at law would not be a measurable or adequate remedy for breach of the covenants contained in this Section 7 and, accordingly, you agree to submit to the equitable jurisdiction of any court of competent jurisdiction in connection with any action to enjoin you from violating any such covenants. If the Company is successful in whole or in part in any legal or equitable action against you in connection with the enforcement of the covenants included in this Section 7, the Company shall be entitled to payment of all costs, including reasonable attorney's fees, from you. If, on the other hand, it is finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that a breach or threatened breach did not occur under Section 7 of this Agreement, the Company shall reimburse you for reasonable legal fees incurred to defend the claim. In the event legal action is commenced with respect to the provisions of this Section 7 and you have not strictly observed the restrictions set forth in this Section 7, then the restricted periods described in Paragraphs (a) and (b) shall begin to run anew from the date of any Final Determination of such legal action. "Final Determination" shall mean the expiration of time to file any possible appeal from a final judgment in such legal action or, if an appeal be taken, the final determination of the final appellate proceeding. All the provisions of this Section 7 will survive termination and expiration of this Agreement.

(g) Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event of a Change in Control, the restrictions imposed by paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 7 shall not apply to you after you cease to be employed by the Company if you are not entitled to receive the severance benefits described in Section 6(a).

8. Dispute Resolution.

(a) Except as provided in Section 8(c) below, any dispute or controversy arising out of, relating to, or in connection with this Agreement, your employment or the interpretation, validity, construction, performance, breach, or termination of this Agreement, shall be settled by binding arbitration. The party initiating arbitration may use the American Arbitration Association, JAMS, the McCammon Group or other firms providing arbitrators for resolution of disputes, or the parties may agree on the selection of a person to arbitrate the matter who is not associated with an arbitration firm. The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator in Danville, Virginia. The arbitration should be conducted in a manner that facilitates an efficient and cost effective means of resolving the dispute. The arbitrator may allow for depositions and document requests, as well as subpoenas to third parties, but other forms of discovery, such as interrogatories and requests for admissions, are not permitted, absent good cause. The arbitrator may grant injunctions or other relief in such dispute or controversy. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final, conclusive and binding on the parties to the arbitration. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator's decision in any court having jurisdiction. The party against whom the arbitrator shall render an award shall pay the other party's reasonable attorneys' fees and other reasonable costs and expenses in connection with the enforcement of its rights under this Agreement (including the enforcement of any arbitration award in court), unless and to the extent the arbitrator shall determine that under the circumstances recovery by the prevailing party of all or a part of any such fees and costs and expenses would be unjust.

(b) The arbitrator shall apply Virginia law to the merits of any dispute or claim, without reference to rules of conflicts of law.

(c) The parties may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, or other interim or conservatory relief, as necessary, without breach of this arbitration agreement and without abridgment of the powers of the arbitrator. You hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Virginia for any action or proceeding arising from or relating to this Agreement or relating to any arbitration in which the parties are participants. The prevailing party in any court proceeding shall be awarded the party's reasonable attorneys' fees and costs.

(d) YOU HEREBY CONFIRM YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS SECTION 8, WHICH DISCUSSES ARBITRATION, AND UNDERSTAND THAT BY SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AGREE, EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN SECTION 8(c), TO SUBMIT ANY CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF, RELATING TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE INTERPRETATION, VALIDITY, CONSTRUCTION, PERFORMANCE, BREACH OR TERMINATION THEREOF TO BINDING ARBITRATION, UNLESS OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY LAW, AND THAT THIS ARBITRATION CLAUSE CONSTITUTES A WAIVER OF YOUR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND RELATES TO THE RESOLUTION OF ALL DISPUTES RELATING TO ALL ASPECTS OF YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE COMPANY.

9. Miscellaneous.

(a) Severability. If any clause or provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the term hereof, then the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby, and in lieu of each clause or provision of this Agreement which is illegal, invalid or unenforceable, there shall be added, as part of this Agreement, a clause or provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable clause or provision as may be possible and as may be legal, valid and enforceable.

(b) Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, without regard to its conflicts of law principles.

(c) Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, between the parties. This Agreement may be amended only by an agreement signed by the parties hereto.

(d) Waiver. The rights and remedies of the parties to this Agreement are cumulative and not alternative. Neither the failure nor any delay by either party in exercising, in whole or in part, any right, power or privilege under this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege.

(e) Binding Effect; Successors; Survival. This Agreement is binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors, heirs and assigns, provided that no part of this Agreement is assignable by you. The Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, upon the termination or expiration of this Agreement the respective rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall survive such termination or expiration to the extent necessary to carry out the intentions of the parties set forth in this Agreement. If the Company elects not to renew this Agreement as provided in Section 2, this Agreement will no longer govern the terms of your employment following the Expiration Date, except for the provisions of Section 7 which will survive the termination and expiration of this Agreement, and your employment thereafter will be on an at-will employment basis.

(f) No Construction Against Any Party. This Agreement is the product of informed negotiations between parties. If any part of this Agreement is deemed to be unclear or ambiguous, it shall be construed as if it were drafted jointly by all parties. The parties agree neither party was in a superior bargaining position regarding the substantive terms of this Agreement.

(g) Clawback. You agree that any incentive based compensation or award that you receive, or have received, from the Company or any Affiliate under this Agreement or otherwise, will be subject to clawback by the Company as may be required by applicable law or, if applicable, any stock exchange listing requirement and on such basis as the Board of Directors of the Company determines.

(h) Documents. All documents, records, tapes and other media of any kind or description relating to the business of the Company or its Affiliates (the "Documents"), whether or not prepared by you, shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Company. The Documents, and any copies thereof, shall be returned to the Company upon your termination of employment for any reason or at such earlier time as the Board of Directors of the Company or its designees may specify.

(i) Section 409A Compliance. This Agreement is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code or an exemption thereunder and shall be construed and administered in accordance with Section 409A. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, payments provided under this Agreement may only be made upon an event and in a manner that complies with Section 409A or an applicable exemption. Any payments under this Agreement that may be excluded from Section 409A either as separation pay due to an involuntary separation from service or as a short-term deferral shall be excluded from Section 409A to the maximum extent possible. For purposes of Section 409A, each installment payment provided under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment. Any payments to be made under this Agreement upon a termination of employment shall only be made upon a "separation from service" under Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company makes no representations that the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement comply with Section 409A and in no event shall the Company be liable for all or any portion of any taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by you on account of non-compliance with Section 409A.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any payment or benefit provided to you in connection with your termination of employment is determined to constitute "nonqualified deferred compensation" within the meaning of Section 409A and you are determined to be a "specified employee" as defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(b)(i), then such payment or benefit shall not be paid until the first payroll date to occur following the six-month anniversary of the date of termination (the "Specified Employee Payment Date"). The aggregate of any payments that would otherwise have been paid before the Specified Employee Payment Date shall be paid to you in a lump sum on the Specified Employee Payment Date and thereafter, any remaining payments shall be paid without delay in accordance with their original schedule.
