Following the request of First West Virginia Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) for Sylvan J. Dlesk, interim President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, to continue in such capacities with the Company while the Company continues its search for a candidate for such positions, the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland on August 17, 2005 advised the Company that it has completed its review of that request and does not object to Mr. Dlesk continuing to serve as interim president and chief executive officer of the Company for a period of up to an additional 120 days or until December 23, 2005.
A similar request of the Company directed to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) to allow Mr. Dlesk to continue to serve as interim President of its wholly owned subsidiary, Progressive Bank, N.A., was likewise not objected to by the OCC; Mr. Dlesk’s term in such capacity having been extended until November 16, 2005. The subsidiary continues its search for a candidate for such position.
