As part of Bank of the James Financial Group, Inc.'s (the "Company") strategic plan, effective October 13, 2021, Michael A. Syrek, 49, will assume the role of President of Bank of the James (the "Bank"), the Company's wholly-owned bank subsidiary.  Mr. Syrek has served as
Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer of the Bank since 2012.  Prior to joining the Bank, Mr. Syrek served as President of SunTrust Bank in Lynchburg, Virginia where he managed relationship managers in Virginia and West Virginia.
There are no family relationships between Mr. Syrek and any of the Company's directors or executive officers.
Mr. Syrek is and has been a customer of the Bank, and the Bank has had, and expects to have in the future, banking transactions with Mr. Syrek in the ordinary course of its business, on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral on loans, as those prevailing at the same time for comparable transactions with other individuals. These transactions do not involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features.  The Company has not otherwise entered into any transactions with Mr. Syrek that are reportable under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Syrek and any other persons pursuant to which Mr. Syrek was promoted to President.
In connection with Mr. Syrek's promotion to President, the Bank adjusted Mr. Syrek's annual base salary to $285,000.
In connection with this appointment, Robert R. Chapman III stepped down as President of the Bank.  Mr. Chapman will continue to serve as the Chief Executive Officer of the Bank as well as President of the Company.  By separating the duties of the CEO and President of the Bank, the Bank anticipates that Mr. Chapman will be able to concentrate on executing the Bank's strategic plan, which includes a focus on growth and increasing revenue and profitability.
