<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">On April 23, 2014, after receiving approval
from the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the &ldquo;FRB&rdquo;), the Board of Directors of First United Corporation
(the &ldquo;Corporation&rdquo;) declared a cash dividend, in the aggregate amount of $675,000, on the 30,000 outstanding shares
of the Corporation&rsquo;s Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A (the &ldquo;Series A Preferred Stock&rdquo;),
which will be paid on May 15, 2014. At the time of payment, the Corporation will also pay approximately $5.8 million in accrued
but unpaid dividends that were deferred, beginning with the dividend payment due on November 15, 2010, at the request of the FRB.
Until further notice from the FRB, the Corporation must obtain the FRB&rsquo;s prior approval before declaring or paying any future
quarterly dividend, which will depend on, among other things, the Corporation&rsquo;s financial condition and results of operations
and its receipt of cash dividends from its bank subsidiary, First United Bank &amp; Trust (the &ldquo;Bank&rdquo;). The Bank&rsquo;s
regulators have the ability to prohibit the Bank from paying dividends to the Corporation if they determine that such payment could
be detrimental to the Bank. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that the FRB will permit the Corporation to pay dividends on
the Series A Preferred Stock on any future dividend payment date.</P>

statements within the meaning of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Readers of this report should be aware
of the speculative nature of forward-looking statements. Statements that are not historical in nature, including those that include
the words &ldquo;anticipate&rdquo;, &ldquo;estimate&rdquo;, &ldquo;plan&rdquo;, &ldquo;project&rdquo;, &ldquo;continuing&rdquo;,
&ldquo;ongoing&rdquo;, &ldquo;target&rdquo;, &ldquo;aim&rdquo;, &ldquo;expect&rdquo;, &ldquo;believe&rdquo;, &ldquo;intend&rdquo;,
&ldquo;may&rdquo;, &ldquo;will&rdquo;, &ldquo;should&rdquo;, &ldquo;could&rdquo;, or the negative of those words and other comparable
words, and any financial projections used in connection with any discussion of future plans, strategies, objectives, actions,
or events, identify forward-looking statements. These statements include, among others, those concerning assumptions, expectations,
predictions, intentions and/or beliefs about future events. These statements are based on the management&rsquo;s current beliefs
and assumptions, as well as information currently available to the management, and reflect management&rsquo;s current views concerning
future events. As such, they are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results or events to differ materially
from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, among many others: the
risk that the FRB will deny an application by the Corporation to make a future quarterly dividend payment; the risk that the Bank&rsquo;s
regulators will prohibit the Bank from paying cash dividends to the Corporation; the risk that any projections, including earnings,
revenues, expenses, synergies, margins or any other financial items that form the basis for management&rsquo;s plans and assumptions
will not be realized; the risks associated with the Corporation&rsquo;s obligations to comply with applicable laws, government
regulations and rules and standards of The NASDAQ Stock Market; and general economic conditions. These and other risks are discussed
in detail in the periodic reports that the Corporation files with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the &ldquo;SEC&rdquo;),
and readers of this report are urged to review those periodic reports and the Corporation&rsquo;s other filings with the SEC,
which are accessible on the SEC&rsquo;s website at <U>www.sec.gov</U>, before making an investment decision. The Corporation assumes
no obligation to update its forward-looking statements except as required by law.</P>
