SUPPLEMENT TO JOINT PROXY STATEMENT

DATE OF RECONVENED SHAREHOLDER MEETINGS: OCTOBER 15, 2009

On or about August 31, 2009, we mailed to you a joint proxy statement for the combination of our two companies through a merger of Xenith Corporation with and into First Bankshares, with the combined company expected to operate under the name Xenith Bankshares, Inc.Our boards of directors continue to unanimously support the merger and believe that it is in the best interests of both companies and their respective shareholders. We are sending you this joint proxy supplement to inform you that, in certain circumstances described herein, we intend to waive the condition to the completion of the merger that the shares of Xenith Bankshares be approved for listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market upon the completion of the merger. This joint proxy supplement also describes an extension to the cash election deadline for shareholders of First Bankshares.If you have already delivered a properly executed proxy, you do not need to anything with respect to your proxy unless you wish to change your vote.

As previously announced and more fully discussed herein, the Virginia State Corporation Commission recently approved Xenith Corporation’s application to acquire control of First Bankshares as a result of the merger and the application of BankCap Partners Fund I, L.P. for approval of its ownership in the combined company. The merger, however, remains subject to other regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions.

It is a condition to the completion of the merger that the shares of Xenith Bankshares common stock to be issued in the merger be approved for listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market. As of the date of this joint proxy supplement, First Bankshares and Xenith Corporation believe that the combined company meets all but one of the NASDAQ Capital Market initial listing requirements. NASDAQ requires that the market value of the combined company’s publicly held shares (excluding shares held by directors, executive officers and 10% shareholders) be at least $15 million on the date of NASDAQ approval. As of the close of business on September 28, 2009, the market value of publicly held shares of the combined company was $11.5 million.

Although we continue our efforts to obtain approval from NASDAQ for the listing of Xenith Bankshares’ common stock, our boards have determined that it is in the best interests of our respective companies and their shareholders to waive this condition to closing if NASDAQ approval has not been obtained by the time all other conditions to the completion of the merger have been satisfied or waived. If we obtain NASDAQ approval by the time all other conditions to the completion of the merger have been satisfied or waived, we will not need to waive this condition. If, however, we are unable to obtain NASDAQ approval by the time all other conditions to the completion of the merger have been satisfied or waived, First Bankshares and Xenith Corporation intend to waive the NASDAQ listing condition and complete the merger. As a result of such waiver, the common stock of Xenith Bankshares would not be listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market upon completion of the merger. If that were to occur, Xenith Bankshares intends to continue to seek to list its common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market as soon as practicable following completion of the merger and to seek quotation of its common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board or Pink OTC Markets (known as the “Pink Sheets”) until such time as the NASDAQ Capital Market listing is approved.

As previously announced, we have adjourned our respective shareholder meetings to allow our shareholders time to consider the possible waiver of the NASDAQ listing condition and other information in this joint proxy supplement that updates the information in the joint proxy statement.

First Bankshares’ annual meeting is scheduled to be reconvened at 3:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on Thursday, October 15, 2009 at First Bankshares’ North Suffolk office, 3535 Bridge Road, Suffolk, Virginia. Xenith Corporation’s special meeting is scheduled to be reconvened at 10:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on Thursday, October 15, 2009 at The Commonwealth Club, 401 West Franklin Street, Richmond, Virginia. During the period of adjournment, shareholders may continue to vote. The cash election deadline for First Bankshares shareholders to elect cash for their shares of First Bankshares common stock in the merger, subject to proration as noted below, has also been extended to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on Thursday, October 15, 2009.

The record dates for our shareholder meetings have not changed. Only holders of record of First Bankshares common stock at the close of business on August 17, 2009 are entitled to vote at First Bankshares’ adjourned annual meeting. Only holders of record of Xenith Corporation common stock at the close of business on August 19, 2009 are entitled to vote at Xenith Corporation’s adjourned special meeting. This joint proxy supplement contains additional information about the companies and the proposed merger. We urge you to read this entire document carefully. We also urge you, if you have not done so already, to read carefully the entire joint proxy statement previously sent to you.

Under the terms of the agreement of merger and the related plan of merger, both as amended, First Bankshares shareholders may elect to retain some or all of their shares in the combined company or to receive $9.23 in cash per share, subject to proration in the event the aggregate cash elections exceed 25% of the shares of First Bankshares common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger, as described herein and in the joint proxy statement. It is estimated that Xenith Corporation shareholders will receive approximately 0.8972 shares in the combined company for each share of Xenith Corporation common stock they own, with the exact exchange ratio determined immediately prior to the effective time of the merger based on the book value per share of Xenith Corporation common stock at such time divided by $9.23, as described herein.

The boards of directors of First Bankshares and Xenith Corporation continue to unanimously recommend that their respective shareholders vote“FOR” the proposal to approve the agreement of merger and the related plan of merger and the transactions contemplated thereby, referred to herein as the merger proposal. In addition, the board of directors of First Bankshares continues to unanimously recommend that its shareholders vote“FOR” the various proposals to amend its articles of incorporation and to elect directors of First Bankshares and other matters described herein.

For your convenience, we have enclosed another proxy card.If you have already delivered a properly executed proxy, you do not need to do anything with the enclosed proxy card unless you wish to change your vote.If you have not previously voted or if you wish to revoke or change your vote, please complete, date, sign and return promptly the proxy card in the enclosed envelope. You may attend your company’s meeting and vote your shares in person if you wish, even if you have previously returned your proxy.

We thank you for your consideration and continued support!

UPDATE TO THE SUMMARY TERM SHEET

This updated summary highlights the material information about the merger in this joint proxy supplement. It does not, however, contain all of the information that may be important to you or that you should consider before voting. To fully understand the proposals you are being asked to vote on, including the merger proposal, and for a more complete description of the legal terms of the merger, you should read carefully this entire joint proxy supplement and the entire joint proxy statement, including the annexes to the joint proxy statement.

What Shareholders Will Receive

First Bankshares

There has been no change to what shareholders of First Bankshares will receive in the merger, as previously described in the joint proxy statement. Shareholders of First Bankshares may elect to retain their shares of First Bankshares common stock or to receive $9.23 in cash per share for some or all of their shares of First Bankshares common stock, subject to proration in the event the aggregate cash elections exceed 25% of shares outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger. In no event will cash be paid for more than 25% of the total number of shares of First Bankshares common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger.

Xenith Corporation

Each share of Xenith Corporation common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger, other than shares held by dissenting shareholders (if any), will be converted automatically into and become the right to receive a number of shares of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Xenith Bankshares common stock as determined by an exchange ratio. The exchange ratio is an amount equal to the quotient of Xenith Corporation’s adjusted book value per share divided by $9.23. The adjusted book value per share is determined by dividing Xenith Corporation shareholders’ equity as of the month-end prior to the merger, incorporating a roll-forward estimate of Xenith Corporation shareholders’ equity as of the effective date of the merger, by the number of shares of Xenith Corporation common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger. Assuming the merger is completed on October 15, 2009 and that Xenith Corporation does not incur any unanticipated expenses, the exchange ratio is estimated to be approximately 0.8972 shares of Xenith Bankshares common stock for each share of Xenith Corporation common stock.

Ownership of the Combined Company Following the Merger

Assuming that the merger is completed on October 15, 2009 and that Xenith Corporation does not incur any unanticipated expenses, it is expected that Xenith Bankshares will issue approximately 4,268,967 shares of common stock to Xenith Corporation shareholders, based on an assumed book value per share of Xenith Corporation common stock of $8.28, which would result in an exchange ratio under the terms of the merger agreement of approximately 0.8972. Immediately following the completion of the merger, assuming that 25% of the total number of shares of First Bankshares common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger are converted into the right to receive cash, we estimate that there will be outstanding approximately 5,976,191 shares of Xenith Bankshares common stock, with current First Bankshares shareholders owning approximately 26.03% of the combined company’s outstanding common stock, on a fully diluted basis, and current Xenith Corporation shareholders owning approximately 73.97% of the combined company’s outstanding common stock, on a fully diluted basis.

Regulatory Approvals

Various aspects of the merger require regulatory approval from state and federal banking regulators. On September 25, 2009, Xenith Corporation received approval to acquire control of First Bankshares as a result of the merger from the Bureau of Financial Institutions of the State Corporation Commission of the Commonwealth of Virginia, referred to herein as the Virginia Bureau.

S-1

BankCap Partners Fund I, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and a private equity investment fund, referred to herein as BankCap Partners Fund, owns 3.5 million shares of Xenith Corporation common stock. Through the exchange of shares in the merger, BankCap Partners Fund will have control of First Bankshares for bank regulatory purposes after the merger. As a result, the merger is conditioned on the receipt of state and federal bank regulatory approvals of the ownership of shares of First Bankshares by BankCap Partners Fund. Concurrently with the filing of Xenith Corporation’s regulatory applications, BankCap Partners Fund filed applications for prior approval of its ownership in First Bankshares with the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas and with the Virginia Bureau. BankCap Partners Fund received regulatory approval from the Virginia Bureau on September 25, 2009. Completion of the merger remains subject to BankCap Partners Fund’s receipt of approval from the Federal Reserve, which is anticipated in October 2009.

SuffolkFirst Bank has filed an application to establish a branch at Xenith Corporation’s current offices in downtown Richmond. Approval of this application is expected in October 2009. After the completion of the merger, the downtown Richmond location will become Xenith Bank’s main office. After the completion of the merger, Xenith Bank will file bank regulatory applications to open a second branch in Richmond, Virginia and one in Tysons Corner in Northern Virginia.

All remaining necessary regulatory approvals to complete the merger are expected no later than October 2009, although there can be no assurance this will occur when expected, if at all.

Conditions to the Completion of the Merger

The obligations of First Bankshares and Xenith Corporation to complete the merger depend on a number of conditions being met, as described in the joint proxy statement. One of the conditions to the completion of the merger is that the shares of Xenith Bankshares common stock to be issued in the merger be approved for listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market. We refer to this condition in this joint proxy supplement as the NASDAQ listing condition.

As of the date of this joint proxy supplement, First Bankshares and Xenith Corporation believe that the combined company meets all but one of the NASDAQ Capital Market initial listing requirements. NASDAQ requires that the market value of the combined company’s publicly held shares (excluding shares held by directors, executive officers and 10% shareholders) be at least $15 million on the date of NASDAQ approval. As of the close of business on September 28, 2009, the market value of publicly held shares of the combined company was $11.5 million. The market value of publicly held shares of the combined company during the 30 trading days preceding the date of this joint proxy supplement has ranged from $11.5 million to $16.1 million.

First Bankshares and Xenith Corporation are continuing their efforts to obtain approval from NASDAQ for the listing of Xenith Bankshares’ common stock. If First Bankshares and Xenith Corporation obtain NASDAQ approval by the time all other conditions to the completion of the merger have been satisfied or waived, the NASDAQ listing condition will not need to be waived. However, if the NASDAQ listing condition is not satisfied by the time all other conditions to the completion of the merger have been satisfied or waived, First Bankshares and Xenith Corporation intend to waive the NASDAQ listing condition and complete the merger without having the Xenith Bankshares common stock listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market upon the completion of the merger. If that were to occur, Xenith Bankshares intends to continue to seek to list its common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market as soon as practicable following completion of the merger and to seek quotation of its common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board or the Pink Sheets until such time as the NASDAQ Capital Market listing is approved.

Timing of the Merger

We intend to complete the merger as soon as possible after shareholder approval is received, all other regulatory approvals have been obtained and other conditions to the closing have been satisfied or waived. It is anticipated that the merger will be completed by the end of the October 2009. However, completion of the merger could be delayed if there is a delay in satisfying any conditions to the merger. There can be no assurances as to whether, or when, the merger will be completed.

UPDATE TO THE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE MERGER AND THE

SHAREHOLDER MEETINGS

The following questions and answers briefly address some of the more likely questions raised in connection with the adjournment of the First Bankshares and Xenith Corporation shareholder meetings and this joint proxy supplement. They do not address all questions and do not include all the information that may be important to you as a shareholder of First Bankshares or Xenith Corporation. For answers to some other commonly asked questions about the First Bankshares and Xenith Corporation shareholder meetings, please see “Questions and Answers About the Merger and the Shareholder Meetings” beginning on page 12 of the joint proxy statement. We also urge you to carefully read the entire joint proxy supplement and joint proxy statement, including the annexes to the joint proxy statement.

Q:	Why am I receiving this joint proxy supplement?

We are sending you this joint proxy supplement to inform you that we intend to waive the condition to closing that the shares of Xenith Bankshares common stock to be issued in the merger be approved for listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market if such approval has not been obtained by the time all other conditions to the completion of the merger have been satisfied or waived. If we obtain NASDAQ approval by the time all other conditions to the completion of the merger have been satisfied or waived, we will not need to waive this condition. This joint proxy supplement provides you an opportunity to reconsider your votes regarding the merger and related proposals in light of our intention to waive the NASDAQ listing condition in certain circumstances. This joint proxy supplement also provides information about an extension of the cash election deadline to provide additional time for First Bankshares’ shareholders to reconsider their decisions regarding the opportunity to elect cash in exchange for some or all of their shares in connection with the merger, subject to proration in the event the aggregate cash elections exceed 25% of the shares of First Bankshares common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the merger.

Q:	What should I do if I already voted using the proxy card that you sent me earlier?

First, carefully read this joint proxy supplement and the joint proxy statement, including the annexes to the joint proxy statement.If you have already submitted a proxy card and do not wish to change your vote, you do not need to do anything.If you have already submitted a proxy card, you will be considered to have voted on the merger proposal and other proposals as indicated on the proxy card you already submitted and your shares will be voted as indicated on that proxy card. If you have already submitted a proxy card, but want to change your vote, you need to submit a new proxy card or attend the meeting and vote in person. If you are a registered holder and you have not already submitted a properly executed proxy card, or wish to change your vote, please complete, sign and date the enclosed proxy card and return it in the enclosed envelope to ensure that your shares will be represented at the relevant shareholder meeting. If your shares are held in “street name” by your broker, and you have not already delivered a properly executed proxy, or wish to change your vote, please refer to the information forwarded by your broker, bank or other holder of record to vote your shares or change your vote.

Q:	Why were the shareholder meetings of First Bankshares and Xenith Corporation adjourned?

The shareholder meetings were adjourned to allow First Bankshares and Xenith Corporation to provide additional information to their respective shareholders and provide shareholders the opportunity to reconsider their votes regarding the merger and related proposals in light of our intention to waive the NASDAQ listing condition in the event such condition is not satisfied by the time all other conditions to the completion of the merger have been satisfied or waived.

S-3

Q:	When and where will the shareholder meetings be reconvened?

A:	The First Bankshares annual meeting is scheduled to be reconvened on Thursday, October 15, 2009 at 3:00 p.m., Eastern Time, at its North Suffolk office, 3535 Bridge Road, Suffolk, Virginia.

The Xenith Corporation special meeting is scheduled to be reconvened on Thursday, October 15, 2009 at 10:00 a.m., Eastern Time, at The Commonwealth Club, 401 West Franklin Street, Richmond, Virginia.

Q:	Have the record dates for the shareholder meetings of First Bankshares and Xenith Corporation changed?

No. The record dates for our shareholder meetings have not changed. Only holders of record of First Bankshares common stock at the close of business on August 17, 2009 are entitled to vote at First Bankshares’ adjourned annual meeting. Only holders of record of Xenith Corporation common stock at the close of business on August 19, 2009 are entitled to vote at Xenith Corporation’s adjourned special meeting.

Q:	What do the boards of directors recommend?

The boards of directors of First Bankshares and Xenith Corporation have unanimously approved and adopted the merger agreement and continue to recommend that shareholders vote “FOR” the merger proposal. This recommendation has not changed in light of the companies’ intention to waive the NASDAQ listing condition if it is not satisfied by the time all other conditions to the completion of the merger have been satisfied or waived.

Q:	Have there been any changes to what shareholders of Xenith Corporation will receive for their stock?

There has been no change to the exchange ratio formula that determines the number of shares of Xenith Bankshares common stock to be received by shareholders of Xenith Corporation for each share of Xenith Corporation common stock they own at the effective time of the merger. However, the estimated exchange ratio has changed from that disclosed in the joint proxy statement due to changes in the estimated book value of Xenith Corporation immediately prior to the effective time of the merger. As of the date of this joint proxy supplement, we estimate that the exchange ratio will be approximately 0.8972, assuming the merger is completed on October 15, 2009 and that Xenith Corporation does not incur any unanticipated expenses.

Q:	Have there been any changes to what shareholders of First Bankshares will receive for their stock?

No, there has been no change to what shareholders of First Bankshares will receive in the merger, as previously described in the joint proxy statement. However, the cash election deadline by which shareholders of First Bankshares must elect whether they wish to receive cash for some or all of their First Bankshares shares in the merger has been extended as described immediately below.

Q:	Does the adjournment of the First Bankshares annual meeting of shareholders affect cash elections made by First Bankshares shareholders?

In connection with the adjournment of the First Bankshares and Xenith Corporation shareholder meetings, we have extended the cash election deadline from 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on September 29, 2009, until 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on October 15, 2009. Otherwise, the adjournment of the First Bankshares annual meeting of shareholders does not affect cash elections made by First Bankshares shareholders.

S-4

If you have already submitted a cash election form and do not wish to change your cash election, you do not need to do anything.

If you have already submitted a cash election form and want to change your cash election, or if you have not submitted a cash election form and want to make a cash election with respect to some or all of your First Bankshares shares, you need to submit a new cash election form in the manner described in the joint proxy statement. To facilitate this, a new cash election form will be sent under separate cover to each First Bankshares shareholder. As further described in the joint proxy statement, you must indicate in the place provided on the cash election form the number of shares of First Bankshares common stock with respect to which you elect to receive cash and return the signed form, along with your original stock certificate(s) representing those shares (whether they refer to SuffolkFirst Bank or First Bankshares), in the separate envelope marked “ELECTION FORM ENCLOSED” to Registrar and Transfer Company, the exchange agent for the merger, referred to herein as the exchange agent. Your cash election form must be received by the exchange agent by the cash election deadline of 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on October 15, 2009.Do not send your cash election form or stock certificates in the envelope with your proxy card. Do not send your cash election form in the envelope marked “PROXY CARD ENCLOSED.” Do not send your cash election form or stock certificates to First Bankshares or Xenith Corporation.

Q:	Will Xenith Bankshares common stock be listed?

It is a condition to the completion of the merger that the shares of Xenith Bankshares common stock to be issued in the merger be approved for listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market. If First Bankshares and Xenith Corporation obtain NASDAQ approval by the time all other conditions to the completion of the merger have been satisfied or waived, the NASDAQ listing condition will not need to be waived. However, if NASDAQ approval is not obtained by the time all other conditions to the completion of the merger have been satisfied or waived, First Bankshares and Xenith Corporation intend to waive the closing condition that such shares be listed on NASDAQ.

If NASDAQ approval for the listing of Xenith Bankshares’ common stock is not obtained and the shareholders of both companies approve the merger when their respective shareholder meetings are reconvened, First Bankshares and Xenith Corporation intend to waive the NASDAQ listing condition and complete the merger after all other conditions to the completion of the merger have been satisfied or waived. If Xenith Bankshares common stock is not listed at the completion of the merger, Xenith Bankshares intends to continue its efforts to obtain a listing of its shares on the NASDAQ Capital Market as soon as practicable following completion of the merger and to seek quotation of its common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board or the Pink Sheets until such time as the NASDAQ Capital Market is approved.

Trading in Xenith Bankshares’ common stock may be adversely affected if the shares are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board or the Pink Sheets, rather than listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market upon the completion of the merger. Securities trading on the OTC Bulletin Board and the Pink Sheets sometimes trade less frequently and in smaller volumes than securities traded on the NASDAQ markets, which could have an adverse effect on the liquidity of Xenith Bankshares’ common stock. Securities trading on the OTC Bulletin Board and the Pink Sheets also tend to be more volatile and may trade at lower prices than securities traded on the NASDAQ Capital Market.

S-5

Q:	What should I do now?

If you have already submitted a proxy card and do not wish to change your vote, you do not need to do anything else to vote. If you have not already submitted a proxy card or wish to change your vote on a previously submitted proxy card, you should complete, sign, date and return your proxy card in the enclosed return envelope as soon as possible so that your shares may be represented at the applicable reconvened shareholder meeting. It is important that the proxy card be received as soon as possible and in any event prior to the commencement of voting at the applicable reconvened shareholder meeting.

In addition, if you are a First Bankshares shareholder of record and you are interested in receiving cash for any of your First Bankshares shares, you must make an election to do so on the cash election form. If you have already submitted a cash and do not wish to change your cash election, you do not need to do anything now with respect to your cash election. If you are interested in receiving cash but have not yet submitted a cash election form, or have submitted a cash election form but now wish to change your election, you should make an election as indicated on the cash election form and return the signed cash election form, which will be sent under separate cover, along with your original stock certificate(s) in the separate envelope marked “ELECTION FORM ENCLOSED” as soon as possible and in any event so that it is received prior to the cash election deadline. If you have submitted a cash election form but now wish to entirely revoke your cash election, you should send a written notice of revocation to the exchange agent, prior to the election deadline.

If you hold your shares of First Bankshares common stock in “street name” (i.e., your bank, broker or other financial intermediary holds your shares for you), you should receive instructions regarding cash election procedures directly from your bank or broker. If you have any questions regarding these procedures, you should contact your bank or broker directly, or you may contact First Bankshares at the address or telephone number listed on page S-7.

Q:	Can I change my vote after I mail my proxy card?

A:	Yes. You can change your vote at any time before your proxy is voted at the reconvened shareholder meeting. You can do this in one of three ways:

•

First, you can send a written notice stating that you would like to revoke your proxy;

•

Second, you can complete and submit a new proxy card; or

•

Third, you can attend the shareholder meeting and vote in person. Simply attending the shareholder meeting, however, will not revoke your proxy.

If you choose either of the first or second methods, you must submit your notice of revocation or your new proxy card no later than the beginning of the reconvened shareholder meeting or, if the reconvened shareholder meeting is further adjourned or postponed, before the further adjourned or postponed meeting is actually held. If you are a First Bankshares shareholder, your submissions must be mailed to First Bankshares’ Corporate Secretary at the address listed on page S-7. If you are a Xenith Corporation shareholder, your submissions must be mailed to Xenith Corporation’s Corporate Secretary at the address listed on page S-7.

If you have already properly submitted a Cash Election Form and do not wish to change your cash election, you do not need to submit another Cash Election Form. If you want to make a cash election and have not already submitted

a Cash Election Form, this Cash Election Form must be received by Registrar and Transfer Company (the “Exchange Agent”) no later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on October 15, 2009 (the “Cash Election Deadline”) along with your original

stock certificate(s) representing the cash election shares (whether they refer to SuffolkFirst Bank or First Bankshares). Please read the instructions carefully before completing this form. If you do not want to make a cash election and want to

elect to retain all of your shares in the Combined Company, you should NOT complete and return this Cash Election Form and you will automatically be deemed to be a Non-Electing Shareholder (see Instruction A7). If First Bankshares

shareholders approve Proposal II, Non-Electing Shareholders will be mailed another Letter of Transmittal and instructions for exchanging their First Bankshares stock certificates for Combined Company stock certificates promptly after the

completion of the Merger.

You should complete this Cash Election Form ONLY if you hold shares in registered form, which means that you have possession of stock certificates in your name. If any of your shares are held in unregistered form or “street

name” by a broker, bank or other financial intermediary, please contact your broker, bank or other financial intermediary for instructions on how to make an election for those shares.

IMPORTANT: The Cash Election Deadline is 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on October 15, 2009. If you have not already submitted a Cash Election Form and you do not return this form and the stock certificates and/or completed

Affidavit for Lost Stock Certificates by the Cash Election Deadline, you will NOT receive cash for any of your shares (see Instruction A1).

IMPORTANT: Your cash election is subject to proration in the event the total cash elections exceed 25% of First Bankshares shares of common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger. As such, you

are not guaranteed to receive cash for all shares of First Bankshares common stock for which you make a cash election; however, you are entitled to receive cash for 25% of your cash election shares (see Instruction A3). Any adjustments to

the elections will be made in accordance with the proration procedures set forth in the Merger Agreement that is attached as Annex A to the joint proxy statement. You should carefully read the joint proxy statement, joint proxy supplement

and the Merger Agreement previously provided to you for a complete explanation of the proration and other terms of the cash election.

IMPORTANT: If First Bankshares shareholders approve Proposal II and you do not elect to receive, or do not receive, cash with respect to all shares represented by the certificate(s) surrendered with this Cash Election Form, the

Exchange Agent will forward to you a new certificate (a “New Certificate”) representing the number of shares of Combined Company common stock equal to the number of shares of First Bankshares represented by surrendered certificates

for which you did not receive cash.

Generally, receiving cash will be treated as a transaction in which income or loss will be recognized for U.S. federal income tax purposes. You should refer to the discussion under “PROPOSAL I – APPROVAL OF THE MERGER AND RELATED

MATTERS—Material Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger” in the joint proxy statement for a general summary of the material federal income tax consequences of the Merger. Because individual circumstances may differ, you should consult

your tax advisor to determine the tax effects of the Merger to you, including the application and effect of foreign, federal, state, local or other tax laws.

This communication is not a solicitation of a proxy from any First Bankshares shareholder. First Bankshares has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a joint proxy statement of First Bankshares and

Xenith Corporation and a joint proxy supplement. The joint proxy statement was mailed to First Bankshares shareholders on or about August 31, 2009, and a joint proxy supplement was mailed to First Bankshares shareholders on or about

September 29, 2009. FIRST BANKSHARES SHAREHOLDERS ARE URGED TO READ THE JOINT PROXY STATEMENT, JOINT PROXY SUPPLEMENT AND ANY OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS TO BE FILED WITH THE

SEC BEFORE MAKING ANY VOTING OR INVESTMENT DECISION WITH RESPECT TO THE MERGER, BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE MERGER.

The undersigned, upon the terms and subject to the conditions specified in this Cash Election Form and in the Merger Agreement, hereby (i) elects to receive cash for the shares of First Bankshares common stock specified in “DESCRIPTION

OF CERTIFICATES SURRENDERED” above and (ii) delivers such shares and any other shares represented by the certificate(s) delivered herewith (or a properly executed Affidavit for Lost Stock Certificates) to the Exchange Agent for surrender in exchange

for cash, in each case upon the terms and subject to the conditions specified in this Cash Election Form and in the Merger Agreement.

The undersigned represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to submit, sell, assign and transfer the above described shares of First Bankshares common stock and that when accepted for exchange by the Combined

Company, the Combined Company will receive good and unencumbered title thereto, free and clear of all liens, restrictions, charges and encumbrances. The undersigned irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Exchange Agent as the true and lawful agent

and attorney-in-fact of the undersigned with full power of substitution to exchange certificates formerly representing shares of First Bankshares together with accompanying evidence of transfer and authenticity, for cash, to the extent set forth above under

“DESCRIPTION OF CERTIFICATES SURRENDERED” and as provided in the Merger Agreement. Delivery of the enclosed certificate(s) shall be effected, and the risk of loss and title to such certificate(s) shall pass, only upon proper delivery thereof to

the Exchange Agent. All authority herein conferred shall survive the death or incapacity of, and any obligation of the undersigned hereunder shall be binding on the heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of, the undersigned.

INSTRUCTIONS

A. Special Conditions

1. Time in which to Make an Election. To be effective, a properly completed Cash Election Form accompanied by each stock certificate representing all, or any portion, of the holder’s shares of First Bankshares common stock for which

a cash election is being made must be received by Registrar and Transfer Company, the Exchange Agent, not later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on October 15, 2009 (the “Cash Election Deadline”). If you have already properly submitted

a Cash Election Form and do not wish to change your cash election, you do not need to submit another Cash Election Form. If a holder is making a cash election for some, but not all, of the shares represented by one of his or her original

First Bankshares common stock certificates, such holder still must submit the certificate by the Cash Election Deadline in order to complete the cash election process. Holders of First Bankshares common stock whose Cash Election Form

and certificate(s) are not so received will be considered non-electing shareholders (“Non-Electing Shareholders”) and will not receive cash in exchange for any of their shares of First Bankshares common stock (see Instruction A7 below).

The method of delivery of all documents is at the option and risk of the First Bankshares shareholder, but if sent by mail, delivery by registered mail, properly insured, with return receipt requested, is recommended. Do not send your Cash

Election Form or stock certificates in the same envelope as your proxy card! Do not send your Cash Election Form or stock certificates to First Bankshares.

2. Description of Certificates. Insert in the box at the top of this Cash Election Form marked “DESCRIPTION OF CERTIFICATES SURRENDERED” the certificate number(s) of the First Bankshares common stock certificate(s) that you

are surrendering herewith, the total number of shares of First Bankshares common stock represented by each certificate, the number of shares represented by each certificate for which a cash election is being made and the name and address

of each registered owner of such certificates. If the space provided is insufficient, attach a separate sheet listing this information. In the portion of the box captioned “TOTAL SHARES FOR WHICH A CASH ELECTION IS BEING MADE,”

please state the total number of shares represented by all of the stock certificates listed in the box for which a cash election is being made. Shares described in the table as being subject to a cash election shall be eligible for exchange

for cash. Shares not described in the table as being subject to a cash election shall not be eligible for exchange for cash and, upon completion of the Merger, shall represent an equal number of shares of Combined Company

common stock.

3. Proration. Cash elections are subject to proration in the event the aggregate cash elections exceed 25% of First Bankshares shares of common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger. As such, a holder is

not guaranteed to receive cash for each share for which such holder makes a cash election. To find out more about this limit and the proration method that will be used, please see “PROPOSAL I – APPROVAL OF THE MERGER AND

RELATED MATTERS–Proration” in the joint proxy statement.

4. Change or Revocation of Election. A holder of shares of First Bankshares common stock who has made an election may at any time prior to the Cash Election Deadline change or revoke such election for all or any portion of the shares

of First Bankshares common stock by (a) submitting a written notice of revocation to the Exchange Agent prior to the Cash Election Deadline or (b) submitting a properly completed revised Cash Election Form that identifies the shares of

First Bankshares common stock to which it applies to the Exchange Agent prior to the Cash Election Deadline. If a holder revokes a cash election, and such holder has transmitted any certificates representing shares of First Bankshares

common stock to the Exchange Agent, the Exchange Agent will promptly return the certificates subject to such revocation to the holder who submitted them (except to the extent, if any, a subsequent cash election is properly made for any

or all of the shares represented by such certificates).

5. Joint Forms of Election. Holders of shares of First Bankshares common stock who make a joint election will be considered to be a single holder of such shares. Joint Cash Election Forms may be submitted only by persons submitting

certificates registered in different forms of the same name (e.g., “John Smith” on one certificate and “J. Smith” on another) and by persons who may be considered to own each other’s shares by reason of the ownership attribution rules

contained in Section 318(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. If this Cash Election Form is submitted as a joint Cash Election Form, each record holder of shares of First Bankshares common stock covered hereby must

properly sign this Cash Election Form in accordance with Instruction B1, attaching additional sheets if necessary. The signatures of such holders will be deemed to constitute a certification that the persons submitting a joint Cash Election

Form are eligible to do so.

6. Forms of Election by Nominees. Any record holder of shares of First Bankshares common stock who is a nominee may submit one or more Cash Election Forms, indicating on the form or forms a combination of cash elections covering

up to the total number of shares of First Bankshares common stock owned by such record holder. However, upon the request of First Bankshares or the Combined Company, as applicable, such record holders will be required to certify to

the satisfaction of First Bankshares or the Combined Company, as applicable, that such record holder holds such shares of First Bankshares common stock as nominee for the beneficial owners of such shares. Each beneficial owner for whom

such a Cash Election Form is so submitted will be treated as a separate shareholder of First Bankshares for purposes of allocation of cash payments and Combined Company common stock to be issued upon consummation of the Merger.

7. Shares as to Which No Election is Made. Any holder of shares of First Bankshares common stock who fails to submit a properly completed Cash Election Form to the Exchange Agent by the Cash Election Deadline, or who revokes

his or her previously submitted Cash Election Form and fails to re-submit subsequently a properly completed Cash Election Form, will be considered a Non-Electing Shareholder, will not receive any cash for his or her shares of First

Bankshares common stock and, upon completion of the Merger, his or her shares of First Bankshares common stock shall represent the equivalent number of shares of Combined Company common stock. Subject to the provisions herein

for lost certificates, a holder who fails to surrender to the Exchange Agent prior to the Cash Election Deadline the certificate(s) representing the shares of First Bankshares common stock with respect to which such holder has submitted a

Cash Election Form will be deemed to not have submitted a properly completed Cash Election Form with respect to the shares represented by such non-surrendered certificate(s).

of First Bankshares common stock is (are) registered that the person(s) requesting the issuance of such check or certificate representing shares of Combined Company common stock either pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or other

taxes required by reason of such issuance, or establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such tax has been paid or is not applicable.

4. Special Delivery Instructions. If checks or certificates representing shares of Combined Company common stock are to be delivered to someone other than the registered holder(s), or to the registered holder(s) at an address other than

5. Lost Certificates. If your certificate(s) representing shares of First Bankshares common stock has (have) been lost, stolen or destroyed, the share certificates must be replaced under an insurance bond underwritten by Travelers Casualty

shall be conclusive and binding. First Bankshares or the Combined Company, as applicable, shall have the absolute right to reject any and all Cash Election Forms not in proper form or to waive any irregularities in any such form, although

it does not represent that it will do so. First Bankshares or the Combined Company, as applicable, and/or the Exchange Agent may, but are not required to, take reasonable action to inform holders of First Bankshares common stock of any

defects and may take reasonable action to assist such holders to correct any such defects; however, neither First Bankshares nor the Combined Company, as applicable, nor the Exchange Agent is under any obligation to notify a holder of

shares of First Bankshares common stock of any defect in a Cash Election Form.

7. Important Tax Information: Substitute Form W-9. Each surrendering shareholder is required to provide Registrar and Transfer Company with such holder’s correct Taxpayer Identification Number (“TIN”) on the Substitute Form W-

9 below and to certify whether the shareholder is subject to backup withholding. Failure to provide such information on the form may subject the surrendering shareholder to federal income tax withholding at the applicable withholding rate

on payments made to such surrendering shareholder with respect to the shares. If such holder is an individual, the TIN is his or her Social Security Number. A holder must cross out item (2) in Part 2 of Substitute Form W-9 if such holder

is subject to backup withholding. Certain holders (including, among others, all corporations and foreign individuals) are exempt from these backup withholding and reporting requirements. Exempt holders should indicate their exempt status

by checking the appropriate box in the Substitute Form W-9 below. In order for a foreign individual to qualify as an exempt recipient, such individual must submit a statement, signed under penalties of perjury, attesting to such individual’s

exempt status. Forms of such statements may be obtained from Registrar and Transfer Company. If backup withholding applies, Registrar and Transfer Company is required to withhold tax at the applicable rate of any payments made to the

holder or other payee. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained from the Internal Revenue Service.

8. Inability to Transfer After Cash Election is Made. Once a cash election is properly made with respect to any share of First Bankshares common stock, the electing holder will not be able to sell or otherwise transfer that share, unless

the cash election is properly revoked prior to the Cash Election Deadline, or unless the Merger Agreement is terminated.

9. Inquiries. All inquiries with respect to this Cash Election Form should be made directly to the Exchange Agent, Registrar and Transfer Company, at 1- 800-368-5948, or via email to info@rtco.com.

NOTE: FAILURE TO COMPLETE AND RETURN THIS FORM MAY RESULT IN BACKUP WITHHOLDING AT THE APPLICABLE WITHHOLDING RATE OF ANY PAYMENTS

MADE TO YOU PURSUANT TO THE MERGER. PLEASE REVIEW INSTRUCTION B7 FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.

AFFIDAVIT FOR LOST STOCK CERTIFICATE(S)

In requesting the replacement of this certificate(s), I hereby agree that: If these certificate(s) are subsequently located, they will be tendered for cancellation. That I indemnify, protect and hold harmless First Bankshares, Xenith Corporation, the

Combined Company, Travelers Casualty & Surety Company of America, and Registrar and Transfer Company, and any other party from and against all losses, expenses, costs and damages including legal fees that may be subjected to these parties at

General Instructions

Section references are to the Internal Revenue Code unless

otherwise noted.

Purpose of Form

A person who is required to file an information return with the IRS

must obtain your correct taxpayer identification number (TIN) to

report, for example, income paid to you, real estate transactions,

mortgage interest you paid, acquisition or abandonment of secured

property, cancellation of debt, or contributions you made to an IRA.

Use Form W-9 only if you are a U.S. person (including a resident

alien), to provide your correct TIN to the person requesting it (the

requester) and, when applicable, to:

1. Certify that the TIN you are giving is correct (or you are

waiting for a number to be issued),

2. Certify that you are not subject to backup withholding, or

3. Claim exemption from backup withholding if you are a U.S.

exempt payee. If applicable, you are also certifying that as a

U.S. person, your allocable share of any partnership income from

a U.S. trade or business is not subject to the withholding tax on

foreign partners’ share of effectively connected income.

Note. If a requester gives you a form other than Form W-9 to

request your TIN, you must use the requester’s form if it is

substantially similar to this Form W-9.

Definition of a U.S. person. For federal tax purposes, you are

considered a U.S. person if you are:

• An individual who is a U.S. citizen or U.S. resident alien,

• A partnership, corporation, company, or association created or

organized in the United States or under the laws of the United

States,

• An estate (other than a foreign estate), or

• A domestic trust (as defined in Regulations section 301.7701-7).

Special rules for partnerships. Partnerships that conduct a trade

or business in the United States are generally required to pay a

withholding tax on any foreign partners’ share of income from such

business. Further, in certain cases where a Form W-9 has not been

received, a partnership is required to presume that a partner is a

foreign person, and pay the withholding tax. Therefore, if you are a

U.S. person that is a partner in a partnership conducting a trade or

business in the United States, provide Form W-9 to the partnership

to establish your U.S. status and avoid withholding on your share of

partnership income.

The person who gives Form W-9 to the partnership for purposes

of establishing its U.S. status and avoiding withholding on its

allocable share of net income from the partnership conducting a

trade or business in the United States is in the following cases:

• The U.S. owner of a disregarded entity and not the entity,

• The U.S. grantor or other owner of a grantor trust and not the

trust, and

• The U.S. trust (other than a grantor trust) and not the beneficiaries

of the trust.

Foreign person. If you are a foreign person, do not use Form W-9.

Instead, use the appropriate Form W-8 (see Publication 515,

Withholding of Tax on Nonresident Aliens and Foreign Entities).

Nonresident alien who becomes a resident alien. Generally,

only a nonresident alien individual may use the terms of a tax

treaty to reduce or eliminate U.S. tax on certain types of income.

However, most tax treaties contain a provision known as a

“saving clause.” Exceptions specified in the saving clause may

permit an exemption from tax to continue for certain types of

income even after the payee has otherwise become a U.S.

resident alien for tax purposes.

If you are a U.S. resident alien who is relying on an exception

contained in the saving clause of a tax treaty to claim an exemption

from U.S. tax on certain types of income, you must attach a

statement to Form W-9 that specifies the following five items:

1. The treaty country. Generally, this must be the same treaty

under which you claimed exemption from tax as a nonresident alien.

2. The treaty article addressing the income.

3. The article number (or location) in the tax treaty that contains

the saving clause and its exceptions.

4. The type and amount of income that qualifies for the

exemption from tax.

5. Sufficient facts to justify the exemption from tax under the

terms of the treaty article.

Example. Article 20 of the U.S.-China income tax treaty allows an

exemption from tax for scholarship income received by a Chinese

student temporarily present in the United States. Under U.S. law,

this student will become a resident alien for tax purposes if his or

her stay in the United States exceeds 5 calendar years. However,

paragraph 2 of the first Protocol to the U.S.-China treaty (dated April

30, 1984) allows the provisions of Article 20 to continue to apply

even after the Chinese student becomes a resident alien of the

United States. A Chinese student who qualifies for this exception

(under paragraph 2 of the first protocol) and is relying on this

exception to claim an exemption from tax on his or her scholarship

or fellowship income would attach to Form W-9 a statement that

includes the information described above to support that exemption.

If you are a nonresident alien or a foreign entity not subject to

backup withholding give the requester the appropriate completed

Form W-8.

What is backup withholding? Persons making certain payments

to you must under certain conditions withhold and pay to the IRS

28% of such payments. This is called “backup withholding.”

Payments that may be subject to backup withholding include

interest, tax-exempt interest, dividends, broker and barter exchange

transactions, rents, royalties, nonemployee pay, and certain

payments from fishing boat operators. Real estate transactions are

not subject to backup withholding.

You will not be subject to backup withholding on payments you

receive if you give the requester your correct TIN, make the proper

certifications, and report all your taxable interest and dividends on

your tax return.

Payments you receive will be subject to backup withholding if:

1. You do not furnish your TIN to the requester,

2. You do not certify your TIN when required (see the Part II

instructions on page 3 for details),

3. The IRS tells the requester that you furnished an incorrect

TIN,

4. The IRS tells you that you are subject to backup withholding

because you did not report all your interest and dividends on your

tax return (for reportable interest and dividends only), or

5. You do not certify to the requester that you are not subject to

backup withholding under 4 above (for reportable interest and

dividend accounts opened after 1983 only).

Certain payees and payments are exempt from backup

withholding. See the instructions below and the separate

Instructions for the Requester of Form W-9.

Also see Special rules for partnerships on page 1.

Penalties

Failure to furnish TIN. If you fail to furnish your correct TIN to a

requester, you are subject to a penalty of $50 for each such failure

unless your failure is due to reasonable cause and not to willful

neglect.

Civil penalty for false information with respect to withholding. If

you make a false statement with no reasonable basis that results in

no backup withholding, you are subject to a $500 penalty.

Criminal penalty for falsifying information. Willfully falsifying

certifications or affirmations may subject you to criminal penalties

including fines and/or imprisonment.

Misuse of TINs. If the requester discloses or uses TINs in violation

of federal law, the requester may be subject to civil and criminal

penalties.

executive agency.

Part I. Taxpayer Identification

Number (TIN)

Enter your TIN in the appropriate box. If you are a resident alien

and you do not have and are not eligible to get an SSN, your TIN is

your IRS individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN). Enter it in

the social security number box. If you do not have an ITIN, see How

to get a TIN below.

If you are a sole proprietor and you have an EIN, you may enter

either your SSN or EIN. However, the IRS prefers that you use your

SSN.

If you are a single-member LLC that is disregarded as an entity

separate from its owner (see Limited liability company (LLC) on

page 2), enter the owner’s SSN (or EIN, if the owner has one). Do

not enter the disregarded entity’s EIN. If the LLC is classified as a

corporation or partnership, enter the entity’s EIN.

Note. See the chart on page 4 for further clarification of name and

TIN combinations.

How to get a TIN. If you do not have a TIN, apply for one

immediately. To apply for an SSN, get Form SS-5, Application for a

Social Security Card, from your local Social Security Administration

office or get this form online at www.ssa.gov. You may also get this

form by calling 1-800-772-1213. Use Form W-7, Application for IRS

Individual Taxpayer Identification Number, to apply for an ITIN, or

Form SS-4, Application for Employer Identification Number, to apply

for an EIN. You can apply for an EIN online by accessing the IRS

website at www.irs.gov/businesses and clicking on Employer

Identification Number (EIN) under Starting a Business. You can get

Forms W-7 and SS-4 from the IRS by visiting www.irs.gov or by

calling 1-800-TAX-FORM (1-800-829-3676).

If you are asked to complete Form W-9 but do not have a TIN,

write “Applied For” in the space for the TIN, sign and date the form,

and give it to the requester. For interest and dividend payments, and

certain payments made with respect to readily tradable instruments,

generally you will have 60 days to get a TIN and give it to the

requester before you are subject to backup withholding on

payments. The 60-day rule does not apply to other types of

payments. You will be subject to backup withholding on all such

payments until you provide your TIN to the requester.

Note. Entering “Applied For” means that you have already applied

for a TIN or that you intend to apply for one soon.

Caution: A disregarded domestic entity that has a foreign owner

must use the appropriate Form W-8.

Part II. Certification

To establish to the withholding agent that you are a U.S. person, or

resident alien, sign Form W-9. You may be requested to sign by the

withholding agent even if items 1, 4, and 5 below indicate otherwise.

For a joint account, only the person whose TIN is shown in Part I

should sign (when required). Exempt payees, see Exempt Payee on

page 2.

Signature requirements. Complete the certification as indicated in

through 5 below.

1. Interest, dividend, and barter exchange accounts opened

before 1984 and broker accounts considered active during

1983. You must give your correct TIN, but you do not have to sign

the certification.

2. Interest, dividend, broker, and barter exchange accounts

opened after 1983 and broker accounts considered inactive

during 1983. You must sign the certification or backup withholding

will apply. If you are subject to backup withholding and you are

merely providing your correct TIN to the requester, you must cross

out item 2 in the certification before signing the form.

3. Real estate transactions. You must sign the certification. You

may cross out item 2 of the certification.

4. Other payments. You must give your correct TIN, but you do

not have to sign the certification unless you have been notified that

you have previously given an incorrect TIN. “Other payments”

include payments made in the course of the requester’s trade or

business for rents, royalties, goods (other than bills for

merchandise), medical and health care services (including

payments to corporations), payments to a nonemployee for

services, payments to certain fishing boat crew members and

fishermen, and gross proceeds paid to attorneys (including

payments to corporations).

5. Mortgage interest paid by you, acquisition or

abandonment of secured property, cancellation of debt,

qualified tuition program payments (under section 529), IRA,

Coverdell ESA, Archer MSA or HSA contributions or

not furnish the TIN of the personal representative or trustee unless the legal

entity itself is not designated in the account title.) Also see Special rules for

partnerships on page 1.

Note. If no name is circled when more than one name is listed, the

number will be considered to be that of the first name listed.

Secure Your Tax Records from Identity Theft

Identity theft occurs when someone uses your personal information

such as your name, social security number (SSN), or other

identifying information, without your permission, to commit fraud or

other crimes. An identity thief may use your SSN to get a job or may

file a tax return using your SSN to receive a refund.

To reduce your risk:

• Protect your SSN,

• Ensure your employer is protecting your SSN, and

• Be careful when choosing a tax preparer.

Call the IRS at 1-800-829-1040 if you think your identity has

been used inappropriately for tax purposes.

Victims of identity theft who are experiencing economic harm

or a system problem, or are seeking help in resolving tax

problems that have not been resolved through normal channels,

may be eligible for Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) assistance.

You can reach TAS by calling the TAS toll-free case intake line

at 1-877-777-4778 or TTY/TDD 1-800-829-4059.

Protect yourself from suspicious emails or phishing

schemes. Phishing is the creation and use of email and websites

designed to mimic legitimate business emails and websites. The

most common act is sending an email to a user falsely claiming to

be an established legitimate enterprise in an attempt to scam the

user into surrendering private information that will be used for

identity theft.

The IRS does not initiate contacts with taxpayers via emails.

Also, the IRS does not request personal detailed information

through email or ask taxpayers for the PIN numbers, passwords, or

similar secret access information for their credit card, bank, or other

financial accounts.

If you receive an unsolicited email claiming to be from the IRS,

forward this message to phishing@irs.gov. You may also report

misuse of the IRS name, logo, or other IRS personal property to the

Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration at 1-800-366-

4484. You can forward suspicious emails to the Federal Trade

Commission at: spam@uce.gov or contact them at

www.consumer.gov/idtheft or 1-877-IDTHEFT(438-4338).

theft and how to reduce your risk.

Privacy Act Notice

Section 6109 of the Internal Revenue Code requires you to provide your correct TIN to persons who must file information returns with the IRS

to report interest, dividends, and certain other income paid to you, mortgage interest you paid, the acquisition or abandonment of secured

property, cancellation of debt, or contributions you made to an IRA, or Archer MSA or HSA. The IRS uses the numbers for identification

purposes and to help verify the accuracy of your tax return. The IRS may also provide this information to the Department of Justice for civil and

criminal litigation, and to cities, states, the District of Columbia, and U.S. possessions to carry out their tax laws. We may also disclose this

information to other countries under a tax treaty, to federal and state agencies to enforce federal nontax criminal laws, or to federal law

enforcement and intelligence agencies to combat terrorism.

You must provide your TIN whether or not you are required to file a tax return. Payers must generally withhold 28% of taxable interest,

dividend, and certain other payments to a payee who does not give a TIN to a payer. Certain penalties may also apply.
