Shareholder Meeting to Be Held at 10:00 a.m., Tuesday, June 8, 2010.
Name Address City,
State Zip Code
As part of our efforts to
cut unnecessary expenses and conserve the environment, Atlantic Southern
Financial Group Inc. has elected to continue to provide Internet access to its
proxy statement, proxy card and annual report this year, rather than mailing
paper documents. This reduces postage and printing expenses and paper waste.
The Annual Meeting of Shareholders will be held at
10:00 a.m. on Tuesday, June 8, 2010, at the Marriott Macon City
Center, 240 Coliseum Drive, Macon, Georgia. The matters to be covered are noted
below:
1.
Election of two directors to serve as directors for a
three-year term until the 2013 annual meeting;
2.
Approval of an amendment to the Articles of
Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from
10,000,000 to 110,000,000;
3.
Ratification of the appointment of Porter Keadle
Moore, LLP, as independent auditors for the fiscal year ending
December 31, 2010;
4.
Authorization of management to adjourn the Annual
Meeting of Shareholders to another time and date if such action is necessary to
solicit additional proxies or attendance; and
5.
Transaction of other matters that may properly come
before the meeting.
The Board of Directors of Atlantic
Southern Financial Group recommends voting for the above proposals.
This communication presents only an
overview of the more complete proxy materials that are available to you on the
Internet. We encourage you to access and review all of the important
information contained in the proxy materials before voting.
