A copy of the slides that may be made available to shareholders is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
Important Information for Shareholders
This communication does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities or a solicitation of any vote or approval, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. No offer of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In connection with the merger, Parkway has filed a registration statement, which included a joint proxy statement/prospectus. The registration statement has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and the joint proxy statement/prospectus is being delivered to each company’s shareholders. SHAREHOLDERS ARE URGED TO READ THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AND THE JOINT PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS REGARDING THE MERGER AND ANY OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS FILED WITH THE SEC, AS WELL AS ANY AMENDMENTS OR SUPPLEMENTS TO THOSE DOCUMENTS, BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PARKWAY, CARDINAL, GRAYSON AND THE PROPOSED MERGER.
You are able to obtain a free copy of the joint proxy statement/prospectus, as well as other filings containing information about Parkway, Cardinal and Grayson, at the SEC’s website (http://www.sec.gov). You also are able to obtain these documents, free of charge, by accessing Cardinal’s website (www.bankoffloyd.com) or by requesting them in writing from Alan Dickerson, Cardinal Bankshares Corp., 101 Jacksonville Circle, Floyd, Virginia 24091, or by telephone at (540) 745-4191; or by accessing Grayson’s website (www.graysonnationalbank.com) or by requesting them in writing from Allan Funk, Grayson Bankshares, Inc., 113 West Main Street, Independence, Virginia 24348, or by telephone at (276) 773-2811.
