Item 5. Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class
If this statement is being filed to report the fact that as of the date hereof the reporting person has ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the class of securities, check the following [X].
As reflected in its Form 8-K filed on February 1, 2021, the Issuer completed a merger (the “Merger”) with Blue Ridge Bankshares, Inc. (“Blue Ridge”) on January 31, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), pursuant to which the Issuer’s shareholders received, in exchange for each share of the Issuer’s Common Stock, 0.5000 shares of Blue Ridge common stock, no par value (“Blue Ridge Common Stock”), plus cash in lieu of any fractional shares (the “Merger Consideration”). On the Closing Date, the Issuer merged with and into Blue Ridge, with Blue Ridge continuing as the surviving corporation. As a result of the Merger, each share of the Issuer’s Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to such time was automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration. As a result of the cancellation of the Issuer’s Common Stock, the Reporting Persons no longer beneficially own more than 5% of the Issuer’s Common Stock.
In addition, as reflected in the Form 8-K filed by Blue Ridge on January 29, 2021, there were 5,718,621 shares of Blue Ridge Common Stock outstanding at December 31, 2020. In addition, as reflected on Blue Ridge’s website, an additional 6,664,848 shares of Blue Ridge Common Stock were issued in connection with the Merger. Based on the number of shares of Blue Ridge Common Stock outstanding at December 31, 2020, together with the additional Blue Ridge Common Stock issued in connection with the Merger, the Reporting Persons do not beneficially own more than 5% of the outstanding shares of Blue Ridge Common Stock.
