Community Bankers Trust Corp.
The holding company for Essex Bank said it would once again defer its TARP dividend payment due to the U.S. Treasury Department, marking CBTC’s sixth unpaid TARP dividend. Though deferred, the $221,000 payment still accrues and will be added to the total that the company owes to the Treasury. TARP rules say that failure to pay dividends for six periods would trigger rights for the Treasury to appoint two directors to the company’s board, although there is no indication that Treasury is taking such action.
