Union Bankshares, Inc.

Dear Shareholder:                                          January 28, 2005

We are pleased to report to you the results of operations for your company
in 2004, a quarterly cash dividend of $.24 and payment of a special cash
dividend in the amount of $.40 per share.

Two Thousand and Four began as a year of continued pressure on net interest
income as interest rates remained at their 40-year low.  However, in early
July short-term rates began to rise and by year-end the "prime" rate stood
at 5.25%, up from 4.0% during the first six months of 2004.  The rising
rates produced a positive effect on our net interest income as we
anticipated this increase and had been selling loans into the secondary
market during the past two years in order to control our interest rate
risk.  We suspect interest rates will continue to rise in 2005, which
should further improve the net interest margin.

Because earnings were greater than originally budgeted, our primary capital
ratio has continued to increase and at year-end stood at 11.75%.  Your
directors determined a special dividend was appropriate after reviewing
2004's results and other factors.  There is no immediate need on the
horizon for any substantial capital expenditures, earnings were strong, and
the current tax treatment of dividend income is favorable to shareholders.

2004 was also a year of improvement in some of our operating systems.  We
introduced check imaging for checking accounts, improved the NetTeller(tm) and
PowerPay(tm) products, and completed the conversion of our merchant services
processing.  All will enhance our productivity and efficiency while
providing a better product for our customers.  We anticipate the coming
year to be one of good growth for your company.

2005 will see further expansion of our market as we will open a loan office
January 26th in downtown St. Albans, Vermont.  Mike Curtis, a lender with
30 years experience, and Carol Allen, his assistant with 15 years banking
experience, will staff this office.  We believe St. Albans is a natural
extension into Franklin County as the success of our Fairfax office
validated a need for additional community banking choices in this market.

It is appropriate to once again thank our shareholders for their investment
in Union Bankshares.  To thank our customers for being "our customers" and
to thank our staff for their effective efforts in keeping the two groups
mentioned above "happy."

Enclosed is your dividend check or advice of deposit representing a regular
dividend of $.24 and a special dividend of $.40 to shareholders of record
January 24, payable January 28th.

Sincerely,

/s/ Richard C. Sargent                 /s/ Kenneth D. Gibbons
