[GLEN
BURNIE BANCORP LETTERHEAD]
May 5,
2009
Dear
Fellow Shareholder:
I am writing to you to correct a
typographical, but serious, error contained on page 2 of our 2008 Annual Report,
which we recently mailed to you. This error also appeared in the
Press Release which we issued on February 5, 2009 setting forth the results of
our operations for the year ended December 31, 2008.
As reported on page 27 of our Annual
Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC, and on page 13 of our 2008 Annual
Report which we mailed to you, our total stockholders’ equity as of December 31,
2008 decreased by $1,827,902, or 6.15% from the 2007 period. This
decrease was attributed to an increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss,
net of tax, and the excess of the cash dividends paid and common stock shares
repurchased and retired over the net income for 2008. Unfortunately,
due to an oversight, our Press Release and my letter and the following
highlights contained in our 2008 Annual Report, erroneously stated that total
stockholders’ equity increased
by 6.15% from the 2007 period, when actually total stockholders’ equity decreased
by 6.15% in 2008.
While the Bank of Glen Burnie has not
been immune to the impact of the economic downturn in the United States during
2008, we are proud that we realized net income of $403,962 for 2008, saw
continued growth in our loan portfolio, remained well capitalized and did not
need to apply for any funding from the U.S. Department of Treasury’s Troubled
Asset Relief Program (“TARP”).
We apologize for the error and any
confusion this may have caused, and look forward to greeting you at our Annual
Meeting on May 14.
Very truly yours,
/s/
Michael G. Livingston
President
and CEO
