WHEELING, WEST VIRGINIA, November 1, 2007 — WesBanco, Inc. (Nasdaq: WSBC) and Oak Hill Financial, Inc. (Nasdaq: OAKF) announced today that November 27, 2007 has been set as the deadline for merger consideration elections in connection with WesBanco’s proposed merger with Oak Hill. Completion of the merger is subject to customary closing conditions, as well as the approval of the merger agreement and merger by Oak Hill shareholders at a special meeting of Oak Hill shareholders scheduled for November 16, 2007, approval of the issuance of WesBanco common stock, adoption of the merger agreement and approval of the merger by WesBanco shareholders at a special meeting of WesBanco shareholders scheduled for November 16, 2007, and approval by various regulatory agencies.

Oak Hill shareholders wishing to make an election regarding the consideration they would like to receive for their Oak Hill shares must deliver to Computershare Trust Co., Inc., the exchange agent, properly completed Election Forms and Letters of Transmittal, together with their stock certificates or properly completed notices of guaranteed delivery, by 5:00 P.M., E.S.T., on Tuesday, November 27, 2007, the election deadline. Oak Hill shareholders may elect cash, shares of WesBanco common stock or a combination of the two for their Oak Hill shares. All elections are subject to adjustment to ensure that 90% of the outstanding shares of Oak Hill common stock will be converted into the right to receive shares of WesBanco common stock, and the remaining shares of Oak Hill common stock will be converted into the right to receive cash. As a result, an Oak Hill shareholder may not receive the exact form of consideration elected, and the ability of an Oak Hill shareholder to receive the form of consideration elected will depend on the elections made by other Oak Hill shareholders.

Oak Hill shareholders who do not properly deliver such documentation to Computershare Trust Co., Inc. (at the address specified in the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal) prior to the election deadline will forfeit the right to select the form of consideration they would like to receive. If the acquisition is completed, such non-electing shareholders will be allocated WesBanco common stock and/or cash depending on the elections made by other Oak Hill shareholders.

Oak Hill shareholders may obtain additional copies of the Election Form and Letter of Transmittal, copies of which were mailed today to Oak Hill shareholders, by contacting Georgeson Inc., the information agent, at 1-888-605-8337.
