MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON<br />
INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING<br />
The management of PAB Bankshares, Inc. (the “Company”) is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate<br />
internal control over financial reporting. This internal control system has been designed to provide reasonable assurance to<br />
the Company’s management and board of directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of the Company’s<br />
published financial statements.<br />
All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations, <strong>inc</strong>luding the possibility of human<br />
error and the circumvention or overriding of controls. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can<br />
provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Further, because of<br />
changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting may vary over time.<br />
The management of the Company has assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting<br />
as of December 31, 2009. To make this assessment, we used the criteria for effective internal control over financial<br />
reporting described in “Internal Control – Integrated Framework”, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations<br />
of the Treadway Commission. Based on our assessment, we believe that, as of December 31, 2009, the Company’s<br />
internal control over financial reporting was effective.<br />
Our independent auditors have issued an attestation report on our assessment of the Company’s internal control over<br />
financial reporting. A copy of the auditor’s attestation report is <strong>inc</strong>luded in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.<br />
