SUSSEX BANCORP ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER 2007 EARNINGS

---

DECLARES QUARTERLY CASH DIVIDEND OF $0.07 PER SHARE

FRANKLIN, NEW JERSEY– July 24, 2007– Sussex Bancorp (NASDAQ: “SBBX”) today announced its financial results for the second quarter ending June 30, 2007.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2007, the Company earned net income of $294,000 compared to net income of $652,000 reported for the second quarter of 2006. For the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Company earned net income of $1,018,000, a decline from the $1,248,000 earned for the same period last year.   Basic earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 were $0.09 and $0.32, respectively, compared to $0.21 and $0.40 for the respective comparable periods of 2006.  Diluted earnings per share were $0.09 and $0.32 respectively for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to $0.20 and $0.39 in the respective comparable periods of 2006. The decline in both net income and earnings per share reflects continued pressure on the Company’s net interest margin, as well as an increase in the Company’s provision for loan losses related to certain loans performing at quarter end that management deems necessary at this time based upon the present loan repayment terms and the ability of the borrowers to comply with the present repayment terms.

 The Company’s net interest income decreased to $2,894,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 from $3,051,000 for the second quarter of 2006.  The decrease reflects the Company’s interest expense increasing at a faster rate than its interest income, due in large measure to the competitive environment for deposits in the Company’s trade area. The Company’s interest income increased to $5,613,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 from $4,876,000 for the second quarter of 2006.   The Company’s interest expense increased to $2,719,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007 from $1,825,000 for the second quarter of 2006.  For the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Company’s net interest income decreased to $5,743,000 from the $5,966,000 earned for the same period last year.  For the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Company’s interest income increased to $11,005,000 from $9,457,000 for the period ended June 30, 2006, while the Company’s interest expense increased to $5,262,000 from $3,491,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2006. As a result of these changes, the Company’s net interest margin declined to 3.46% and 3.53% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, from 4.22% and 4.19% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively.

Management has sought to address the margin compression in several ways. The Company recently refinanced $5.0 million in its outstanding trust preferred securities. The securities called for redemption bore a rate of 9.01%, while the newly issued trust preferred securities have a current rate of 6.80%.  Management is also closely monitoring rates offered on deposit products.  In addition, the Company is seeking to enhance its yield on its interest earning assets, primarily its loan portfolio. The Company will no longer seek to compete on rate for all potential customers, but only on its more profitable relationships. This may lead to a slowing in the rate of growth of the Company’s loan portfolio, as certain borrowers elect to obtain credit products from competing institutions. However, management believes this will benefit the Company’s net interest margin and profitability.

The loan loss provision for the second quarter was $436,000 compared to $229,000 for the same period last year.  The increase is related both to the continued growth in the Company’s loan portfolio and two  construction loans dependent upon residential unit sales that due to market conditions have not kept pace with the expected loan amortization schedules. Subsequent to quarter end, one of these loans, with an outstanding balance of $4.4 million, reached maturity, but has not been paid off.  Considering the underlying collateral value of both loans and the continuing economic environment, management therefore determined that an additional provision was prudent at this time.

The Company reported non-interest income of $1,235,000 and $2,821,000 for the current three and six month periods ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to non-interest income of $1,369,000 and $2,660,000 for

the three and six month periods ending June 30, 2006.  Insurance commissions for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2007 were $664,000 and $1,518,000, respectively.

The Company’s other expenses increased in the three and six month periods of 2007 compared to the prior year periods.  For the three month period ending June 30, 2007 other expenses increased by $107,000 thousand, or 3.3%, while other expenses increased by $218,000 thousand, or 3.4%, for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the prior year periods.

At June 30, 2007 the Company had total assets of $387.3 million, compared to total assets of $331.3 million at June 30, 2006. The Company’s total deposits increased to $311.3 million at June 30, 2007 from $277.3 million at June 30, 2006, and the Company’s total loan portfolio, net of unearned income, increased to $284.6 million at June 30, 2007 from $244.1 million at June 30, 2006.

Sussex Bancorp also announced that its Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.07 per share, payable on August 24, 2007 to shareholders of record as of August 6, 2007.
