PROXY STATEMENT

ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

APRIL 18, 2006

SOLICITATION AND REVOCATION OF PROXIES

This Proxy Statement (the "Proxy Statement") is furnished on or about March 17, 2006 to the shareholders of Carrollton Bancorp (the "Company") in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors of the Company to be voted at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders, and any adjournments thereof. Our principal executive offices are located at 344 North Charles Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21201.

The Board of Directors has selected Robert J. Aumiller, Steven K. Breeden, and Harold I. Hackerman and each of them, to act as proxies with full power of substitution. A proxy may be revoked at any time prior to its exercise by giving written notice of revocation to the Company, by executing and delivering a substitute proxy to the Company, or by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person. If no instructions are specified in the proxy, it is the intention of the persons named therein to voteFOR the election of the nominees named herein as directors of the Company, andFOR the ratification of Rowles and Company, LLP as the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm to audit the financial statements of the Company for 2006.

Shareholders of the Company are requested to complete, date and sign the accompanying form of proxy and return it promptly to the Company in the enclosed envelope. If a proxy is properly executed and returned in time for voting, it will be voted as indicated thereon.

The Company does not know of any matter to be presented at the Annual Meeting except as described herein. If any other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting, the persons named in the enclosed proxy intend to vote the proxy according to their best judgment.

The Company will bear the costs of the solicitation of proxies, including the reimbursement of banks, brokers and other fiduciaries for expenses in forwarding proxy solicitation materials to beneficial owners. Such expenses are estimated not to exceed $5,000. Solicitations may be made by mail, telegraph or personally by directors, officers or employees of the Company, none of whom will receive additional compensation for performing such services.

VOTING PROCEDURES

Generally, each proposal submitted to the Company shareholders for a vote is deemed approved if a majority of the votes cast by the shareholders present, in person or by proxy, at a meeting at which a quorum is present, are in favor of the proposal. The presence of a majority, in person or by proxy, of shareholders entitled to cast votes at the meeting constitutes a quorum. A shareholder is entitled to one vote for each share owned.

Shareholder votes are tabulated by the Company's Registrar and Transfer Agent. Proxies received by the Company, if such proxy is properly executed and delivered, will be voted in accordance with the voting specifications made on such proxy. Proxies received by the Company on which no voting specification has been made by the shareholder will be voted "for" all items discussed in the Proxy Statement, in the manner stated on the proxy card. Shareholders who execute and deliver proxies retain the right to revoke them by notice delivered to the Company Secretary at any time before such proxies are voted.

The vote of a plurality of all of the votes cast at a meeting at which a quorum is present is necessary for the election of a director. For purposes of the election of directors, abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted as votes cast and will have no effect on the result of the vote, although they will count toward the presence of a quorum. For purposes of the Annual Meeting, however, there should not be any broker "non-votes" because a broker who holds shares for a beneficial owner and does not receive voting instructions from the beneficial owner has discretionary authority to vote on each of the proposals to be considered at the Annual Meeting.

SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SHAREHOLDERS

There have been no matters submitted to a vote of the Company's shareholders since its 2005 Annual Shareholders' Meeting held on April 19, 2005.

VOTING SECURITIES

On March 1, 2006, the Company had outstanding 2,813,268 shares of Common Stock, $1.00 par value per share. Each share of Common Stock entitles the holder thereof to one vote on each matter to be voted upon at the Annual Meeting. Neither the Company's Charter nor its Bylaws provides for cumulative voting rights.

The close of business on March 1, 2006 has been fixed by the Board of Directors as the record date for determining the shareholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting.

PROPOSAL 1: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The Company's Board of Directors is divided into three classes. Each year the directors in one class are elected to serve for a term of three years, or until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified. The Shareholders will vote at this Annual Meeting for the election of four directors for the three-year term expiring at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders in 2009.

The proxies solicited hereby, unless directed to the contrary, will be voted FOR the election as directors of all four nominees listed in the following tables. In order to be elected, a plurality of the shares voted at a meeting at which a quorum is present is necessary for the election of a director. Each nominee has consented to serve as a director, if elected.

Your Company's Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the election of each of the nominees named below as directors of the Company.

In the event that any of the nominees should be unable to serve on the Board of Directors, the persons named in the proxy will vote for such substitute nominee or nominees as they, in their sole discretion, shall determine. The Board of Directors has no reason to believe that any nominee named here will be unable to serve. Alternatively, the Board of Directors may elect to reduce the size of the Board of Directors.

The following material shows, as of December 31, 2005, the names and ages of all nominees, the principal occupation and business experience of each nominee during the last five years and the year in which each nominee was first elected to the Board of Directors.

It also reviews the independent accountant's letter to management concerning the effectiveness of the Company's internal financial and accounting controls and management's response to that letter. In addition, the Committee reviews and recommends to the Board the firm to be engaged as the Company's Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. The Committee also approves all insider loans.

The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee held no meetings during 2005. Its members are Messrs. Breeden, Hessler and Moore. The purposes of the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee are (a) to assist the Board by identifying individuals qualified to become Board members and to recommend to the Board nominees for the next annual meeting of shareholders, (b) to recommend to the Board the corporate governance principles applicable to us, (c) to lead the Board in its annual review of its performance, and (d) to recommend to the Board members and chairpersons of each committee.

The Chairman of the Board of the Bank received a monthly fee of $1,250. Directors do not receive additional fees for their service as directors of the Company. On November 17, 2005, the Board of Directors approved an additional $300 for Board members and $400 for the Chairman of the Board for attendance at the regular Board meetings to be effective January 1, 2006. In addition, the Board of Directors approved $400 for the Audit Committee members, $450 for the Audit Committee Chairman, $300 for the Loan Committee members and $350 for the Loan Committee Chairman for each committee meeting attended. After review of a report by a consultant on director fees, the Compensation Committee recommended and the Board of Directors approved on February 23, 2006 increasing the Bank Chairman's fee $200, the Company Chairman's fee $100, and the Audit Committee Chairman's fee $150 per meeting. All other committee fees remained the same.

The Board of Directors of the Bank meets regularly twelve times each year. No director attended fewer than 75% of the total number of meetings of both Boards and committees to which they were assigned during the year ended December 31, 2005.

SHAREHOLDER COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE BOARD

Shareholders may send communications to the Board by mailing the same addressed to: Board of Directors, Carrollton Bancorp, Suite 300, 344 North Charles Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21201.

DIRECTOR NOMINATION PROCESS

The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee operates pursuant to a charter adopted by the Board, a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement and can also be found on the Company's website atwww.carrolltonbank.com.

In recommending director nominees, the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee will consider candidates recommended by the Company's stockholders. Notice of Nominees to the Board recommended by shareholders must be timely delivered in writing to the Secretary of the Company prior to the meeting. To be timely, the notice must be delivered within the time permitted for nomination of directors in Article I, Section VII of the Bylaws of the Company. The notice must include:

•: information regarding the shareholder making the nomination, including name, address, and the number of shares of our stock beneficially owned by the shareholder; and
•: the name and address of the person(s) being nominated and such other information regarding each nominee that would be required in a proxy statement filed pursuant to the proxy rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission if the person had been nominated for election by or at the direction of the Board of Directors;

The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee will evaluate nominees recommended by shareholders against the same criteria that it uses to evaluate other nominees. Whether recommended by a stockholder or chosen independently by the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee, a candidate will be recommended for nomination based on his or her talents in relation to the talents of the existing Board members and the needs of the Board. It is the goal of the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee in recommending director nominees to foster relationships among directors that are complimentary and that will make the Board most effective. A candidate, whether recommended by a Company stockholder or otherwise, will not be considered for nomination unless he or she (i) is of good character, (ii) is a citizen of the United States, (iii) owns shares of Company common stock the aggregate value of which is not less than $500, as determined in accordance with the Financial Institutions Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland, and (iv) satisfies all other requirements imposed under applicable law. Additionally, the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee believes that it is important for candidates recommended for nomination to have the ability to attract business to the Company, live or work within the communities in which the Company operates, and possess the skills and expertise necessary to provide leadership to the Company. Certain Board positions, such as Audit Committee membership, may require other special skills or expertise. To identify potential nominees for the Board, the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee first evaluates the current members of the Board willing to continue in service. Current members of the Board are considered for re-nomination, balancing the value of their continued service with that of obtaining new perspectives and in view of

our developing needs. If necessary, the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee then solicits ideas for possible candidates from a number of sources, which can include other Board members, senior management, individuals personally known to members of the Board and research. The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee may also retain a third party to assist it in identifying potential nominees; however, the committee has not done so in the past.

The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for assembling and maintaining a list of qualified candidates to fill vacancies on the Board. The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee periodically reviews this list and researches the talent, skills, expertise, and general background of these candidates.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The Audit Committee has adopted a written charter which was included as part of the definitive proxy statement delivered to stockholders with respect to the 2004 Annual Meeting. The members of the Audit Committee are "independent" as such term is defined in Rule 4200(a)(15) of the National Association of Securities Dealers' listing standards and applicable SEC rules. The Audit Committee has (1) reviewed and discussed the Company's audited financial statements with management and representatives of Rowles & Company, LLP, the Company's Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm; (2) discussed with Rowles & Company, LLP all matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 90 (Communication with Audit Committees); and (3) reviewed the written disclosures required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, which were received from the Company's Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, and has discussed the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm's independence with them. The Audit Committee has reviewed the fees of the Independent Registered Accounting Firm for non-audit services and believes that such fees are compatible with the independence of the Independent Registered Accounting Firm.

Based on these reviews and discussions, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.

RETIREMENT PLANS

The Company had a defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all of the employees. Benefits are based on years of service and the employee's highest average rate of earnings for the three consecutive years during the last five full years before retirement. Assets of the plan are held in a trust fund managed by an insurance company. Effective December 31, 2004, the Company froze the Plan. Participant benefits stopped accruing as of the date of the freeze.

The following table shows the estimated annual retirement benefits payable under the Carrollton Bank Retirement Income Plan to persons in specified average compensation and credited service classifications, assuming retirement at age 65.

Final three-year Average Compensation	Years of Service
Final three-year Average Compensation	10		15		20

$125,000	$	21,500	$	32,250	$	43,000
$150,000		26,250		39,375		52,500
$175,000		31,000		46,500		62,000
$200,000		35,750		53,625		71,500

Compensation covered by the Retirement Income Plan was W-2 earnings up to the current compensation limit in effect for the plan year. Benefits are payable on a ten-year certain and life annuity basis.

As of December 31, 2005, for purposes of computing benefits under the Retirement Plan, age and years of credited service of the Company's Named Executives are as follows:

Name	Age	Years of Service

Robert A. Altieri	44	15
Gary M. Jewell	59	9
John A. Giovanazi	48	9
Robert F. Hickey	44	2
Edward R. Bootey	59	31

The Company has a contributory thrift plan qualifying under Section 401(K) of the Internal Revenue Code. Employees with one year of service are eligible for participation in the Plan. In conjunction with the curtailment of the pension plan, the Company expanded the thrift plan to make it a Safe Harbor Plan. Once an employee has been at the Company for one year, the Company then contributes 3% of the employee's salary quarterly to the Plan for the employee's benefit. The Company also matches 50% of the employee's 401(K) contribution up to 6% of the employee's compensation. The Company's contributions to this Plan, included in employee benefit expenses were $292,080, $92,485 and $70,678 for 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively.

LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

The 1998 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended, (the "Plan") which was approved at the 1998 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and amended as of December 2, 2004, authorizes the granting of awards in the form of options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, performance awards, phantom shares, bonus shares or cash awards. Any executive or other employee of the Company, its subsidiaries, affiliated entities and non-employee Directors of the Company shall be eligible to receive awards under the Plan. Non-employee Directors of subsidiaries or affiliated entities of the Company will not be eligible to participate in the Plan.

The Plan provides for 300,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock to be issued as awards under the Plan, either directly or upon exercise of an option. The Plan provides for appropriate adjustments in the number of shares subject to the Plan in the event of a stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar changes in the Company's common stock or in the event of a merger, consolidation or certain other types of recapitalizations affecting the Company

Gary M. Jewell	5,000	11%		14.50	12/15/2015		130,474		207,759

A total of 53,930 incentive stock options were granted in 2005 under the 1998 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended, to directors and employees. Of that total, 6,930 stock options were granted to directors at an exercise price of $14.45. The options granted to directors vest over a three-year period and expire, if not exercised, in 2015. On December 15, 2005, The Board of Directors authorized 42,000 options to officers and the immediate vesting of such options and all outstanding options to officers where the exercise price of the option exceeded the fair market value of the Company's stock. This resulted in 47,000 of the 53,930 options granted in 2005 becoming vested that would otherwise have vested in future years. There were no grants in 2005 for restricted stock, stock appreciation rights, performance grants, phantom shares, and bonus shares or cash awards.

REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE

OVERALL POLICY

The Board of Directors of the Company establishes the overall goals and objectives of, and the policies to be followed in pursuing these goals and objectives, including the selection of necessary key management personnel, and the evaluating of the performance of those personnel. The major responsibility for assisting in satisfying the compensatory aspect of the overall supervisory duty of the Board rests with the Compensation Committee. The membership of the Compensation Committees (collectively the "Committee") of the Company and the Bank is identical, composed of independent nonemployee Directors of both institutions who do not participate in any executive compensation plan.

In order to achieve the overall goals and objectives of the Company, and recognizing the interest of the shareholders in that achievement, the Committee has developed and maintains an executive compensation plan based on a philosophy that links executive compensation to individual and corporate performance, and return to shareholders. This philosophy is intended to enable the Company to attract and retain highly motivated executive personnel of outstanding ability and initiative, and to create an identity of interests between executives and the Company's shareholders. The Company's executive compensation plan consists of basic cash compensation, the opportunity for annual incentive compensation based on corporate performance, and continuing stock based compensation.

The Committee administers the provisions of the Company's incentive cash compensation plan and its stock based plans. In addition, the Committee is authorized to make recommendations to the Boards of the Company and the Bank with respect to basic salaries, supplemental pension, deferred compensation, employment and similar agreements affecting their executive officers, and performs such other functions as may be delegated to it by the Boards.

The Committee takes various factors into consideration when establishing and reviewing executive compensation. There follows an explanation of general principles governing basic cash compensation, annual incentive compensation based on corporate earnings performance, stock based compensation, and the factors considered in establishing basic cash compensation for 2005.

BASIC CASH COMPENSATION

The Committee, in determining basic cash compensation of the executive officers of the Company, considers corporate profitability, financial condition, capital adequacy, return on assets and other factors. The Committee also considers the performance and compensation levels of other banking institutions as more fully set forth under the caption "2005 Compensation". The Committee does not consider these factors by any formula and does not assign specific weight to any given factor. Instead, the Committee applies its collective business judgment to reach a consensus on compensation fair to the Company, its shareholders and its executive officers.

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

The 1998 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended, was designed to create a common interest between key employees, non-employee board members and shareholders on a long-term basis, encouraging participants to maintain and increase their proprietary interests as shareholders in the Company with the opportunity to benefit from the long-term performance of the Company.

From 1998 through 2005, the Committee granted, under the 1998 Long-Term Incentive Plan, options for a total of 274,760 shares of Common Stock to directors and key employees of the Company and the Bank. The exercise price of the stock options equals the market price of the Common Stock on the date of grant and the options have a ten year life. Options are not performance-based and become exercisable in equal annual installments over three years.

On December 15, 2005, the Board of Directors authorized 42,000 options to officers and the immediate vesting of these options and all outstanding options to officers where the exercise price of the option exceeded the fair market value of the Company's stock. This resulted in 75,500 options becoming vested in 2005 that would have otherwise vested in future years.

2005 COMPENSATION

The Committee, in determining the 2005 basic cash compensation of the executive officers of the Company, considered the factors described in this Report.

Robert A. Altieri serves as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and President and Chief Executive Officer of the Bank and, as such, had the ultimate management responsibility for the strategic direction, performance, operating results and financial condition of the Company and its subsidiaries, and the carrying out of corporate policies and procedures. Edward R. Bootey is Senior Vice President—Operations of the Bank; James M. Uveges is Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Bank; Robert F. Hickey is Senior Vice President—Branch Administration of the Bank; John A. Giovanazi is Senior Vice President—Lending of the Bank; and Gary M. Jewell is Senior Vice President—Electronic Banking of the Bank.

The Committee was aware of 2005 earnings of the Company. The Committee further reviewed profitability and capital strength ratios (return on assets, net interest margin, efficiency ratio, equity to assets and return on equity) and loan loss performance ratios (period-end non-performing assets to loans and foreclosed real estate, net charge-offs to average loans and period-end allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans) as compared to comparable information for peer banking companies with assets from $250 to $500 million, considered by an independent analyst as the Company's peer group. The Committee compared similar ratios showing profitability, capital adequacy, reserve strength, and asset quality with those of the peer institutions as prepared by that financial analyst. The Committee was aware of the strategic plan of improving profitability and the factors that influence management's ability to accomplish strategic goals under the plan in the current economic environment in its assessment of management's performance.

The Committee compared the proposed compensation of Mr. Altieri with independent studies published reflecting compensation information of the peer group commercial banking institutions participating in the study and with the compensation of executive officers of banking institutions, based on proxy information covering institutions comparable to the Company in terms of criteria including the nature and quality of operations, or geographic proximity. This group included financial institutions having high returns on assets, capital significantly in excess of that required by current federal regulations, and located within a 100 mile radius of Baltimore so as to include companies operating in a comparable economic climate. No target was established in the comparison with this group of institutions.

The Committee concluded that the Company's profitability is below comparisons, but improved significantly over prior years while capital strength ratios continued to be strong, and that loan loss ratios were favorable, both standing alone and in comparison to the banking companies constituting the peer group. Based on the Committees review and its evaluation of the qualifications, experience and responsibilities of Mr. Altieri and the other members of executive management, and of the importance of the continued services for transitional and other purposes, the Committee approved the compensation and other arrangements with Mr. Altieri, Mr. Bootey, and Mr. Hickey, Mr. Giovanazi, and Mr. Jewell as described in the Summary Compensation Table in this Proxy Statement.

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code provides for non-deductibility, in certain cases, of compensation paid to certain executives in excess of $1 million per year. The Company does not have a policy limiting compensation to amounts deductible under Section 162(m). The annual incentive plan and the Omnibus Stock Plans have been approved by the shareholders and are designed to be qualified performance-based plans so that Section 162(m) limits would not apply to plan benefits. Section 162(m) limits would apply to salary, bonuses in excess of bonuses under the annual incentive compensation plan and certain amounts included under "Other Annual Compensation" and "All Other Compensation" in the Summary Compensation Table.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

In 2005, the Company and the Bank had banking and other relationships, in the ordinary course of business, with a number of its Directors and companies associated with them. The Company purchased insurance through its broker, Riggs, Counselman, Michaels & Downes, Inc., of which Mr. Counselman is President and Chief Executive Officer. The insurance coverage purchased was made on substantially the same terms, as those prevailing at the time, for comparable transactions with others. Management believes the terms of the insurance coverage obtained through Riggs, Counselman, Michaels & Downes, Inc. were at least as favorable to the Company as could have been obtained elsewhere.

Outstanding loans exist to Steven K. Breeden, David P. Hessler, William C. Rogers, Jr. and their related companies which were made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with others not considered outsiders, and did not involve more than the normal risk of collectibility or present other unfavorable features.

During the past year the Company has had banking transactions in the ordinary course of its business with: (i) its directors and nominees for directors; (ii) its executive officers; (iii) its 5% or greater shareholders; (iv) members of the immediate family of its directors, nominees for directors or executive officers and 5% shareholders; and (v) the associates of such persons on substantially the same terms, including interest rates, collateral, and repayment terms on loans, as those prevailing at the same time for comparable transactions with others. The extensions of credit by the Company to these persons have not had and do not currently involve more than the normal risk of collectibility or present other unfavorable features. At December 31, 2005, the balance of loans outstanding to directors, executive officers, owners of 5% or more of the outstanding Common Stock, and their associates, including loans guaranteed by such persons, aggregated $1,820,717 which represented approximately 5.32% of the Company's equity capital accounts.

William C. Rogers, Jr., a director of both the Company and the Bank, is a partner of the law firm of Rogers, Moore and Rogers, which performs legal services for the Company, the Bank, and Bank subsidiaries (Carrollton Financial Services, Inc., Carrollton Mortgage Services, Inc., and Carrollton Community Development Corporation). Management believes that the terms of these transactions, which totaled $220,000 in 2005, were at least as favorable to the Company as could have been obtained elsewhere.

Albert R. Counselman, a director of both the Company and the Bank, is President and Chief Executive Officer of Riggs, Counselman, Michaels & Downes, Inc., an insurance brokerage firm through which the Company, the Bank, and Bank subsidiaries place various insurance policies. The Company and the Bank paid total premiums for insurance policies placed by Riggs, Counselman, Michaels & Downes, Inc in 2005 of $215,000. Management believes that the terms of these transactions were at least as favorable to the Company as could have been obtained elsewhere.

Aumiller, a director of both the Company and the Bank is Executive Vice President of MacKenzie Real Estate Services, a brokerage and real estate development firm, through which the Company and the Bank paid for appraisal, construction, brokerage and management services of $169,000 in 2005 for appraisal and property management services provided by MacKenzie Commercial Real Estate Services. Management believes these terms were as favorable as could have been obtained elsewhere.

THE AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER

PURPOSE

The Audit Committee (the "Committee) is appointed by the Board of Directors (the "Board") to assist the Board in monitoring (1) the integrity of the financial statements of Carrollton Bancorp (the "Company"), (2) the independent auditor's qualifications and independence, and (3) the performance of the Company's internal audit function and independent auditors, and (4) the compliance by the Company with legal and regulatory requirements.

Management of the Company is responsible for the preparation, presentation and integrity of the financial statements of the Company. The Company's independent external auditor is responsible for rendering an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on their audit. The Bank shall provide to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and any other appropriate federal and state banking agency, a copy of each audit report and any qualification to such report, any management letter, and any other report within fifteen days of receipt of such report, qualification, or letter from the Bank's independent external auditor. The Company's independent external auditor is responsible for planning and carrying out, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, an audit of the Company's financial statement.

The primary responsibility of the Committee is to oversee the accounting and financial reporting processes of the Company and the audits of the financial statements of the Company on behalf of the Board and report the results of its activities to the Board. Management is responsible for preparing the Company's financial statements and related disclosures and the Company's independent auditors are responsible for auditing those financial statements. It is not the duty of the Committee to plan or conduct audits or to determine that the Company's financial statements are complete and accurate and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). It shall be the duty of the Committee to assist the Board in the oversight of the Company's legal and regulatory requirements.

COMMITTEE MEMBERSHIP

The Committee shall consist of no fewer than three and no more than five members, each of whom shall be a non-employee director of the Company. Each member of the Committee shall meet the independence and experience requirements of the listing standards of NASDAQ, Section 10A(m)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), and all other applicable legal requirements, including the requirement that at least one member of the Committee be a "financial expert" within the meaning of rules promulgated by the SEC under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. In addition to the independence and experience requirements of NASDAQ, Section 10A (m) (3) of the Exchange Act and the SEC, the Board has also adopted a policy that neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries will extend unsecured credit to the independent auditor or individuals employed by the independent auditor and members of the independent auditor must not hold stock in the Company or its affiliates. Each member of the Committee must be able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including a balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement. A majority of the members of the Committee shall constitute a quorum.

Committee members shall be appointed and may be replaced by the Board.

The Committee may request that any officer or employee of the Company or the Company's outside counsel or independent auditor to attend a meeting of the Committee or to meet with any members of, or consultants to, the Committee without the consent of management or the Board. The Committee shall meet, in separate executive sessions, quarterly with the independent auditor and semi-annually with management and the internal auditors. The Committee shall make regular reports to the Board. The Committee shall review and reassess the adequacy of this Charter annually and recommend any proposed changes to the Policy Committee and to the Board for approval. The Committee shall annually review the Committee's own performance and present such review to the Board.

STATEMENT OF POLICY

The Committee shall provide assistance to the Board in fulfilling its responsibility to the shareholders, potential shareholders, depositors, the investment community and others relating to the Company's corporate accounting and financial reporting processes, the systems of internal accounting and financial controls, the internal audit function, and the annual independent audit of the Company's financial statements.

In carrying out its responsibilities, the Committee believes its policies and procedures should remain flexible, in order to best react to changing circumstances and conditions.

The Committee, and each member of the Committee in his or her capacity as such, shall be entitled to rely, in good faith, on information, opinions, reports or statements, or other information prepared or presented to them by (i) officers and other employees of the Company or Carrollton Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, whom such member believes to be reliable and competent in the matters presented, (ii) counsel, public accountants or other persons as to matters which the member believes to be within the professional competence of such person.

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING DELIVERY OF SECURITY HOLDER DOCUMENTS

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted rules that allow us to deliver a single annual report, proxy statement, proxy statement combined with a prospectus, or any information statement to any household at which two or more shareholders reside who share the same last name or whom we believe to be members of the same family. This is known as "householding."

If you share the same last name and address with one or more shareholders, from now on, unless we receive contrary instructions from you (or from one of these other shareholders), you and all other shareholders who have your last name and live at the same home address will receive only one copy of any of our annual report, proxy statement for our Annual Meeting of Stockholders, proxy statement we file and deliver in connection with any other meeting of shareholders, proxy statement combined with a prospectus or information statement. We will include with the household materials for our annual meetings, or any other shareholders' meeting, a separate proxy card for each registered shareholder who shares your last name and lives at your home address.

If you do not wish to participate in the householding program, please contact our transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, at 1-800-937-5449 to "opt-out" or revoke your consent. If you "opt-out" or revoke your consent to householding, each primary account holder residing at your address will receive individual copies of the Carrollton Bancorp proxy statement, annual report and other future stockholder mailings.

If you do not object to householding, (1) you are agreeing that your household will only receive one copy of future Carrollton Bancorp stockholder mailings, and (2) your consent will be implied and householding will start 60 days after the mailing of this notice, to the extent you have not previously consented to participation in the householding program. Your affirmative or implied consent to householding will remain in effect until you revoke it. Carrollton Bancorp shall begin sending individual copies of applicable security holder communications subject to householding rules to a security holder within 30 days after revocation by the security holder of prior affirmative or implied consent. Your participation in the householding program is encouraged. It will reduce the volume of duplicate information received at your household as well as the cost of us preparing and mailing duplicate materials.

Most banks and brokers are delivering only one copy of the annual report and proxy statement to consenting street-name stockholders (you own shares in the name of a bank, broker or other holder of record on the books of our transfer agent) who share the same address. Those street-name stockholders who wish to receive separate copies may do so by contacting their bank or broker or other holder of record.
