(the “Company”) (OTC Bulletin Board: FCBI), the parent company for Frederick County Bank (the “Bank”), announced today that on Monday, February 19, 2007 its branch located at 1595 Opossumtown Pike, Frederick, Maryland was destroyed as a result of a fire which occurred during an apparent robbery attempt of a store in the same shopping center, and resulted in the loss of the entire shopping center.  The Company has determined that its insurance coverage is adequate, and the fire damage should not result in a material loss.  Management is exploring various options to maintain service to customers of the branch, including a temporary site, increased courier service to its commercial customers and relocating the branch office.
