Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

We, Summit Financial Group, Inc. and subsidiaries, prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual year end financial statements. In our opinion, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included and are of a normal recurring nature.

The presentation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us 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 materially from these estimates.

The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The consolidated financial statements and notes included herein should be read in conjunction with our 2003 audited financial statements and Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain accounts in the consolidated financial statements for December 31, 2003 and September 30, 2003, as previously presented, have been reclassified to conform to current year classifications.

Note 2. Significant New Accounting Pronouncements

Variable interest entities: In December 2003 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued revised Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (“FIN 46-R”). In accordance with FIN 46-R, business enterprises that represent the primary beneficiary of another entity by retaining a controlling interest in that entity’s assets, liabilities and results of operations must consolidate that entity in its financial statements. Prior to the issuance of FIN 46-R, consolidation generally occurred when an enterprise controlled another entity through voting interests. If applicable, transition rules allow the restatement of financial statements or prospective application with a cumulative effect adjustment. We have determined that the provisions of FIN 46-R require deconsolidation of subsidiary trusts which issued guaranteed preferred beneficial interests in subordinated debentures (Trust Preferred Securities). Prior to the adoption of FIN 46-R, we consolidated the trust and the balance sheet included the guaranteed beneficial interests in the subordinated debentures of the trust. Upon adoption of FIN 46-R at December 31, 2003, the trust has been deconsolidated and the junior subordinated debentures of the Company owned by the trust are being disclosed. The Trust Preferred Securities continue to qualify as Tier 1 capital for regulatory purposes. The banking regulatory agencies have not issued any guidance which would change the regulatory capital treatment for the Trust Preferred Securities based on the adoption of FIN 46-R. The adoption of the provisions of FIN 46-R has had no material impact on our results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity. See Note 9 of our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of our subordinated debentures.

Loan commitments: During 2003, we adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 149 (“SFAS 149”), Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS 149 requires that commitments to make mortgage loans should be accounted for as derivatives if the loans are to be held for sale, because the commitment represents a written option and accordingly is recorded at the fair value of the option liability. The adoption of SFAS 149 did not have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position, or liquidity.

Long-term borrowings: Our long-term borrowings of $166,992,593, $164,646,208 and $165,526,033 at September 30, 2004, December 31, 2003, and September 30, 2003 respectively, consisted primarily of advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”).

These borrowings bear both fixed and variable rates and mature in varying amounts through the year 2016.

The average interest rate paid on long-term borrowings for the nine month period ended September 30, 2004 was 4.02% compared to 4.63% for the first nine months of 2003.

Subordinated Debentures: We have two statutory business trusts that were formed for the purpose of issuing mandatorily redeemable securities (the “capital securities”) for which we are obligated to third party investors and investing the proceeds from the sale of the capital securities in our junior subordinated debentures (the “debentures”). The debentures held by the trusts are their sole assets. Our subordinated debentures totaled $11,341,000 at September 30, 2004, and $3,609,000 at both December 31, 2003 and September 30, 2003.

In October 2002, we sponsored SFG Capital Trust I, and in March 2004, we sponsored SFG Capital Trust II, of which 100% of the common equity of both trusts is owned by us. SFG Capital Trust I issued $3,500,000 in capital securities and $109,000 in common securities and invested the proceeds in $3,609,000 of debentures. SFG Capital Trust II issued $7,500,000 in capital securities and $232,000 in common securities and invested the proceeds in $7,732,000 of debentures. Distributions on the capital securities issued by the trusts are payable quarterly at a variable interest rate equal to 3 month LIBOR plus 345 basis points for SFG Capital Trust I and 3 month LIBOR plus 280 basis points for SFG Capital Trust II, and equals the interest rate earned on the debentures held by the trusts, and is recorded as interest expense by us. The capital securities are subject to mandatory redemption in whole or in part, upon repayment of the debentures. We have entered into agreements which, taken collectively, fully and unconditionally guarantee the capital securities subject to the terms of the guarantee. The debentures of SFG Capital Trust I and SFG Capital Trust II are first redeemable by us in November 2007 and March 2009, respectively.

In fourth quarter 2003, as a result of applying the provisions of FIN 46-R, which governs when an equity interest should be consolidated, we were required to deconsolidate SFG Capital Trust I from our financial statements. The deconsolidation of the net assets and results of operations of the trust had virtually no impact on our financial statements or liquidity position, since we continue to be obligated to repay the debentures held by the trust and guarantee repayment of the capital securities issued by the trust. The consolidated debt obligation related to the trust increased from $3,500,000 to $3,609,000 upon deconsolidation with the difference representing our common

Summit Financial Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

ownership interest in the trust. The accompanying financial statements reflect the deconsolidation for all periods presented.

The capital securities held by SFG Capital Trust I and SFG Capital Trust II qualify as Tier 1 capital under Federal Reserve Board guidelines. As a result of the issuance of FIN 46-R, the Federal Reserve Board is currently evaluating whether deconsolidation of the trust will affect the qualification of the capital securities as Tier 1 capital.

A summary of the maturities of all long-term borrowings and subordinated debentures for the next five years and thereafter is as follows:

Note 10. Stock Option Plan

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, we have elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations in accounting for our employee stock options.

The Officer Stock Option Plan, which provides for the granting of stock options for up to 480,000 shares of common stock to our key officers, was adopted in 1998 and expires in 2008. Each option granted under the plan vests according to a schedule designated at the grant date and shall have a term of no more than 10 years following the vesting date. Also, the option price per share shall not be less than the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. Accordingly, no compensation expense is recognized for options granted under the Plan.

The following pro forma disclosures present for the quarters ended and nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, our reported net income and basic and diluted earnings per share had we recognized compensation expense for our Officer Stock Option Plan based on the grant date fair values of the options (the fair value method described in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123).

For purposes of computing the above pro forma amounts, we estimated the fair value of the options at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following weighted-average assumptions for grants during the first nine months of 2004: risk free interest rate of 2.96%; dividend yield of 1.21%; volatility factor of the expected market price of our common stock of 22; and an expected option life of 5 years. The weighted-average grant date fair value of the options granted was $7.68. There were no option grants during the first nine months of 2003. For purposes of the pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense over the options’ vesting period.

Note 11. Issuance of Preferred Stock

On April 23, 2004, the Board of Directors approved an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation establishing the Rockingham National Bank Series Convertible Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”) and authorizing up to 40,000 shares of its issuance. On May 17, 2004, we completed the sale of 33,400 shares of Preferred Stock in a private placement. The Preferred Stock was sold to potential investors that we believed would be beneficial to the development and support of the Rockingham National Bank, a division of Summit’s subsidiary, Shenandoah Valley National Bank, and to the outside directors of Shenandoah Valley National Bank. The offering price for each share of the Preferred Stock was the mean of the closing prices of Summit’s common stock reported on the last five (5) business days on which the stock traded prior to and inclusive of May 10, 2004, which was $35.28 per share, and aggregate offering proceeds were $1,158,471, net of related issuance costs. The shares of Preferred Stock will convert automatically into a maximum of 41,750 shares of our common stock on May 15, 2005 based on the total loans and deposits of the Rockingham National Bank division of Shenandoah Valley National Bank on that date.

Note 12. Stock Split

On October 29, 2004, our Board of Directors authorized a 2-for-1 split of our common stock to be effected in the form of a 100% stock dividend that will be distributed on December 15, 2004 to shareholders of record as of December 1, 2004.

Note 13. Restrictions on Capital

We and our subsidiaries are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the banking regulatory agencies. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, we and each of our subsidiaries must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of our and our subsidiaries’ assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. We and each of our subsidiaries’ capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require us and each of our subsidiaries to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier I capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). We believe, as of September 30, 2004, that we and each of our subsidiaries met all capital adequacy requirements to which they were subject.

The most recent notifications from the banking regulatory agencies categorized us and each of our subsidiaries as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, we and each of our subsidiaries must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table below.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

INTRODUCTION

The following discussion and analysis focuses on significant changes in our financial condition and results of operations of Summit Financial Group, Inc. (“Company” or “Summit”) and our wholly owned subsidiaries, Summit Community Bank (“Summit Community”), Capital State Bank, Inc. (“Capital State”),Shenandoah Valley National Bank (“Shenandoah”), Summit Financial, LLC (“SFLLC”), and Summit Insurance Services, LLC for the periods indicated. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our 2003 audited financial statements and Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The Private Securities Litigation Act of 1995 indicates that the disclosure of forward-looking information is desirable for investors and encourages such disclosure by providing a safe harbor for forward-looking statements by us. Our following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainty. In order to comply with the terms of the safe harbor, we note that a variety of factors could cause our actual results and experience to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in those forward-looking statements.

OVERVIEW AND 4TH QUARTER 2004 EARNINGS

Our primary source of income is net interest income from loans and deposits. Business volumes tend to be influenced by the overall economic factors including market interest rates, business spending, and consumer confidence, as well as competitive conditions within the marketplace.

Strong growth in our interest earning assets resulted in an increase of 18.18%, or $3,298,000, in our net interest earnings on a tax equivalent basis for the first nine months in 2004 compared to the same period of 2003. Further, our mortgage banking segment, SFLLC, which began operations during third quarter 2003, contributed $1,684,000 to our first nine months 2004 earnings. Although we have experienced strong earnings momentum from SFLLC, there can be no assurances that SFLLC will continue to perform at this level in the near-term. Earnings derived from SFLLC in the short-term are expected to be tempered by seasonal factors, an overall slowing of consumer mortgage refinancings, and the intense competition that exists in the mortgage lending industry. Accordingly, we anticipate a reduction in the earnings contributed by SFLLC in fourth quarter of 2004, and we expect our consolidated diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter 2004 to range between $0.65 and $0.70, less than an analyst’s most recent published estimate of $0.77 for the same period.

During the first quarter of 2004, we acquired an insurance agency located in Moorefield, West Virginia. This acquisition had no material impact on our results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and follow general practices within the financial services industry. Application of these principles requires us to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the amounts reported in our financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates, assumptions, and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements; accordingly, as this information changes, the financial statements could reflect different estimates, assumptions, and judgments. Certain policies inherently have a greater reliance on the use of estimates, assumptions, and judgments and as such have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported.

Our most significant accounting policies are presented in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements of our 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K. These policies, along with the disclosures presented in the other financial statement notes and in this financial review, provide information on how significant assets and liabilities are valued in the financial statements and how those values are determined.

Based on the valuation techniques used and the sensitivity of financial statement amounts to the methods, assumptions, and estimates underlying those amounts, we have identified the determination of the allowance for loan

Summit Financial Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

losses and the valuation of goodwill to be the accounting areas that require the most subjective or complex judgments, and as such could be most subject to revision as new information becomes available.

The allowance for loan losses represents our estimate of probable credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Determining the amount of the allowance for loan losses is considered a critical accounting estimate because it requires significant judgment and the use of estimates related to the amount and timing of expected future cash flows on impaired loans, estimated losses on pools of homogeneous loans based on historical loss experience, and consideration of current economic trends and conditions, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. The loan portfolio also represents the largest asset type on our consolidated balance sheet. To the extent actual outcomes differ from our estimates, additional provisions for loan losses may be required that would negatively impact earnings in future periods. Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements of our 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K describes the methodology used to determine the allowance for loan losses and a discussion of the factors driving changes in the amount of the allowance for loan losses is included in the Asset Quality section of the financial review of the 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

With the adoption of SFAS No. 142 on January 1, 2002, we discontinued the amortization of goodwill resulting from acquisitions. Goodwill is now subject to impairment testing at least annually to determine whether write-downs of the recorded balances are necessary. A fair value is determined based on at least one of three various market valuation methodologies. If the fair value equals or exceeds the book value, no write-down of recorded goodwill is necessary. If the fair value is less than the book value, an expense may be required on our books to write down the goodwill to the proper carrying value. During the third quarter, we completed the required annual impairment test for 2004 and determined that no impairment write-offs were necessary. We cannot assure you that future goodwill impairment tests will not result in a charge to earnings. See Notes 1 and 7 of the consolidated financial statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion of our intangible assets, which include goodwill.

BUSINESS SEGMENT RESULTS

We are organized and managed along two major business segments, as described in Note 14 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The results of each business segment are intended to reflect each segment as if it were a stand alone business. Net income (loss) by segment follows:

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Earnings Summary

Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2004 grew 69.61% to $3,126,000, or $0.87 per diluted share as compared to $1,843,000, or $0.52 per diluted share for the quarter ended September 30, 2003. Returns on average equity and assets for the first nine months of 2004 were 18.31% and 1.33%, respectively, compared with 14.06% and 1.08% for the same period of 2003.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is the principal component of our earnings and represents the difference between interest and fee income generated from earning assets and the interest expense paid on deposits and borrowed funds. Fluctuations in interest rates as well as changes in the volume and mix of earning assets and interest bearing liabilities can materially impact net interest income.

Our net interest income on a fully tax-equivalent basis totaled $21,443,000 for the nine months period ended September 30, 2004 compared to $18,145,000 for the same period of 2003, representing an increase of $3,298,000 or 18.18%. This increase resulted from growth in interest earning assets, primarily loans, which served to more than offset the 36 basis points decline in the yield on interest earning assets during the same period. Average interest earning assets grew 16.7% from $670,907,000 during the first nine months of 2003 to $782,780,000 for the first nine months of 2004. Average interest bearing liabilities grew 17.6% from $604,149,000 at September 30, 2003 to $710,441,000 at September 30, 2004, at an average yield for the first nine months of 2004 of 2.47% compared to 2.93% for the same period of 2003.

Our net yield on interest earning assets increased to 3.65% for the nine month period ended September 30, 2004, compared to 3.61% for the same period in 2003. The yields on taxable loans declined 60 basis points during the period ended September 30, 2004, and during the same period, our cost of interest bearing funds also decreased by 46 basis points. Consistent with the experience of many other financial institutions, this margin compression is the result of earning assets repricing at historically low yields, while at the same time, we have limited ability to decrease correspondingly the rates paid on interest bearing liabilities. Further contributing to this situation are historically high prepayments of loans and mortgage-backed securities which necessitate the reinvestment of significant cash flows at rates well below each respective portfolio’s overall yield.

We anticipate modest growth in our net interest income to continue over the near term as the growth in the volume of interest earning assets will more than offset the expected continued decline in our net interest margin. However, if market interest rates remain significantly unchanged, or go lower over the next 12 to 18 months, the spread between interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities could narrow such that its impact could not be offset by growth in earning assets. See the “Market Risk Management” section for further discussion of the impact changes in market interest rates could have on us. Further analysis of our yields on interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities are presented in Tables I and II below.

Credit Experience

The provision for loan losses represents charges to earnings necessary to maintain an adequate allowance for potential future loan losses. Our determination of the appropriate level of the allowance is based on an ongoing analysis of credit quality and loss potential in the loan portfolio, change in the composition and risk characteristics of the loan portfolio, and the anticipated influence of national and local economic conditions. The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is reviewed quarterly and adjustments are made as considered necessary.

We recorded a $758,000 provision for loan losses for the first nine months of 2004, compared to $683,000 for the same period in 2003. Net loan charge offs for the first nine months of 2004 were $300,000, as compared to $251,000 over the same period of 2003. At September 30, 2004, the allowance for loan losses totaled $5,138,000 or 0.87% of loans, net of unearned income, compared to $4,681,000 or 0.93% of loans, net of unearned income at December 31, 2003.

Noninterest Income

On the strength of mortgage origination revenue, total noninterest income increased to $8,544,000 for the third quarter of 2004, compared to $810,000 for the same period of 2003. Mortgage origination revenue grew to $7,732,000 for the third quarter of 2004, compared to $211,000 for the same period of 2003. This increase was due to the organization of SFLLC during the third quarter of 2003. This revenue includes mortgage loan origination and sales activity conducted through SFLLC. Refer to Note 14 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements for our segment information.

Total noninterest income was $20,919,000 for the first nine months of 2004, compared to $2,180,000 in the same period of 2003. Mortgage origination revenue was $18,666,000 for the first nine months of 2004, compared to $534,000 for the same period of 2003.

Noninterest Expense

Total noninterest expense increased approximately $18,199,000, or 172.1% to $28,775,000 during the first nine months of 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003. The primary factor contributing to growth in noninterest expense was an increase in salaries and employee benefits expense due to the staffing requirements of SFLLC. Two other major contributors to the increase in total noninterest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 were advertising and postage expense. These increased expenses resulted from SFLLC’s direct mail program utilized to obtain customers. Refer to Note 14 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements for our segment information.

Loan growth during the first nine months of 2004, occurring principally in the commercial and real estate portfolios, was funded primarily by both long-term and short-term borrowings from the FHLB.

Refer to Notes 4, 5, 8, and 9 of the notes to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information with regard to changes in the composition of our securities, loans, deposits and borrowings between September 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003.

LIQUIDITY

Liquidity reflects our ability to ensure the availability of adequate funds to meet loan commitments and deposit withdrawals, as well as provide for other transactional requirements. Liquidity is provided primarily by funds invested in cash and due from banks, Federal funds sold, non-pledged securities, and available lines of credit with the FHLB, the total of which approximated $112 million, or 13.0% of total assets at September 30, 2004 versus $115 million, or 14.7% of total assets at December 31, 2003.

Our liquidity position is monitored continuously to ensure that day-to-day as well as anticipated funding needs are met. We are not aware of any trends, commitments, events or uncertainties that have resulted in or are reasonably likely to result in a material change to our liquidity.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

One of our continuous goals is maintenance of a strong capital position. Through management of our capital resources, we seek to provide an attractive financial return to our shareholders while retaining sufficient capital to support future growth. Shareholders’ equity at September 30, 2004 totaled $65,289,000 compared to $57,188,000 at December 31, 2003, representing an increase of 14.2%.

MARKET RISK MANAGEMENT

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in the fair value of financial instruments due to changes in interest rates, exchange rates and equity prices. Interest rate risk is our primary market risk and results from timing differences in the repricing of assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet instruments, changes in relationships between rate indices and the potential exercise of imbedded options. The principal objective of asset/liability management is to minimize interest rate risk and our actions in this regard are taken under the guidance of our Asset/Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”), which is comprised of members of senior management and members of the Board of Directors. The ALCO actively formulates the economic assumptions that we use in our financial planning and budgeting process and establishes policies which control and monitor our sources, uses and prices of funds.

Some amount of interest rate risk is inherent and appropriate to the banking business. Our net income is affected by changes in the absolute level of interest rates. Our interest rate risk position is slightly asset sensitive; that is, assets are likely to reprice faster than liabilities, resulting in an increase in net income in a rising rate environment. Conversely, net income should decrease in a falling interest rate environment. Net income is also subject to changes in the shape of the yield curve. In general, a flattening yield curve would result in a decline in our earnings due to the compression of earning asset yields and funding rates, while a steepening would result in increased earnings as margins widen.

Several techniques are available to monitor and control the level of interest rate risk. We primarily use earnings simulations modeling to monitor interest rate risk. The earnings simulation model forecasts the effects on net interest income under a variety of interest rate scenarios that incorporate changes in the absolute level of interest rates and changes in the shape of the yield curve. Each increase or decrease in interest rates is assumed to take place over the next 12 months, and then remain stable. Assumptions used to project yields and rates for new loans and deposits are derived from historical analysis. Securities portfolio maturities and prepayments are reinvested in like instruments. Mortgage loan prepayment assumptions are developed from industry estimates of prepayment speeds. Noncontractual deposit repricings are modeled on historical patterns.

The following table shows our projected earnings sensitivity as of September 30, 2004 which is well within our ALCO policy limit of +/- 10%:


Change in	Percentage
Interest Rates	Change in Net
(basis points)	Interest Income
Down 100		-2.10	%
Up 100		0.58	%
Up 200		0.75	%

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have conducted as of September 30, 2004, an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2004 were effective. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2004 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting

Part II. Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are involved in various pending legal actions, all of which are regarded as litigation arising in the ordinary course of business and are not expected to have a materially adverse effect on our business or financial condition.

On December 26, 2003, two of our subsidiaries, Summit Financial, LLC and Shenandoah Valley National Bank, and various employees of Summit Financial, LLC were served with a Petition for Temporary Injunction and a Bill of Complaint filed in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia by Corinthian Mortgage Corporation. The filings allege various claims against Summit Financial, LLC and Shenandoah Valley National Bank arising out of the hiring of former employees of Corinthian Mortgage Corporation and the alleged use of trade secrets. The individual defendants have also been sued based on allegations arising out of their former employment relationship with Corinthian Mortgage and their current employment with Summit Financial, LLC.

The plaintiff seeks damages in the amount proven at trial on each claim and punitive damages in the amount of $350,000 on each claim. Plaintiff also seeks permanent and temporary injunctive relief prohibiting the alleged use of trade secrets by Summit Financial and the alleged solicitation of Corinthian’s employees.

On January 22, 2004, we successfully defeated the Petition for Temporary Injunction brought against us by Corinthian Mortgage Corporation. The Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia denied Corinthian’s petition.

We, after consultation with legal counsel, believe that Corinthian’s claims made in its recent lawsuit arising out of the hiring of former employees of Corinthian Mortgage Corporation and the alleged use of trade secrets are without foundation and that meritorious defenses exist as to all the claims. We will continue to evaluate the claims in the Corinthian lawsuit and intend to vigorously defend against them. We believe that the lawsuit is without merit and will have no material adverse effect on us. Management, at the present time, is unable to estimate the impact, if any, an adverse decision may have on our results of operations or financial condition.
