23 West Virginia Floods – June 2016

• Absolutely Devastating within several WV communities but within highly localized areas • 26 deaths • Up to 1200 homes destroyed or significantly damaged • Flooding overlapped City’s franchise most specifically in Greenbrier County • Precise impact on CHCO still unknown - BUT - • Within zip codes where some flooding occurred – City has approx 900 loans – mostly residential (averaging $43,000) About 10% of these homes are in a flood zone meaning that most of these homes are not in flood zones, and most homes in these zip codes did NOT flood. Some homes that were NOT in flood zones DID flood however. • As of July 28, 2016, City is aware of 1 large commercial real estate loan where the collateral was destroyed but the property was insured for flood damage. City is also aware of two small residential loans where the collateral was destroyed – with losses of about $50,000. 24 West Virginia Floods – June 2016

Acquisition philosophy: • Opportunities have increased • Actively looking • Size: Generally $100MM to $1B • Historically less acquisitive than peers because City’s strategy is driven by creating shareholder value – not merely size driven • Acquisitions must truly be strategic or meaningfully accretive • Recent acquisitions have all been “commercially driven” and in higher growth areas 30

Industry Challenges in 2016: • Economic Activity & Loan Growth • Mortgage Banking Slowdown • Branch Fees are stagnant • Loan Competition – Terms & Price • Regulatory Compliance • Future Regulatory Agenda 43 Challenges specific to CHCO: • Downturn in Mining? •City’s direct exposure to mining extremely small • Downturn in Natural Gas? • While we anticipate challenges for aggressive lenders in markets characterized with significant natural gas drilling – City’s franchise area isn’t dependent on natural gas drilling • Floods ? • Floods in June 2016 hit certain communities where City is the leading bank very hard; However our lending exposure appears to not have significant risk

CHCO overcomes challenges thru: • Excellent distribution network • Exceptional Customer Depth driving strong non-interest income • Markets characterized by disciplined competition - and even perhaps “receding” competition • Discipline in managing expenses • Strong liquidity from a strong depository base • Strong capital levels coupled with capital-generating capacity • Well regarded Common stock valued in acquisitions • Limited exposure to coal-based businesses or natural gas drilling • Increasing exposure to higher growth markets • Sufficient size to easily address regulatory challenges confronting smaller banks • Strong and stable management team 44
