On December 20, 2024, a former Deputy Bank Secrecy Act Officer and manager at the Bank filed suit against the Company and the Company’s and the Bank’s Chief Executive Officer, in the Circuit Court of the City of Richmond (Virginia) alleging that she was retaliated against and constructively discharged in violation of the Virginia Whistleblower Protection Act, Va. Code § 40.1-27.3, and Bowman v. State Bank of Keysville, 331 S.E.2d 797 (Va. 1985). On December 30, 2024, the Company removed the matter to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, where it subsequently filed a motion to dismiss. On July 18, 2025, the court granted the Company’s motion to dismiss. The case caption in the district court is Porter v. Blue Ridge Bankshares, Inc. (No. 3:24-cv-909 (E.D. Va.)). On August 15, 2025, the plaintiff appealed the dismissal of her claims to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, Case No. 25-1970, asserting various violations of law. The Company believes the plaintiff’s claims are without merit and will continue to defend itself vigorously in the matter.

On December 5, 2023, an alleged shareholder of the Company commenced a putative class action in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York (No. 1:23-cv-08944) (Russell Hunter v. Blue Ridge Bankshares, Inc., et al.) on behalf of himself and any persons or entities who purchased the publicly traded stock of the Company between February 3, 2023 and October 31, 2023, both dates inclusive (the “Action”). The Action alleged violations of federal securities laws against the Company and certain of its current and former officers based on alleged material misstatements and omissions related to accounting judgments in the Company’s filings with the SEC. The complaint sought certification of a class action, unspecified damages, and attorney’s fees. The putative class representative filed an amended complaint, and the Company filed a letter seeking permission to file a motion to dismiss. The parties engaged in non-binding mediation on December 5, 2024, during which the parties agreed in principle to settlement terms for $2.5 million. The Company was insured for its legal fees and for the settlement amount less a deductible that was expensed in 2024. On February 4, 2025, the plaintiff filed an unopposed motion for preliminary approval of the proposed class action settlement, which, if granted, would settle the Action and any claims related to the Action or that could have been brought in the Action by the parties, the parties’ counsel, or settlement class members (the “Motion”). The Motion expressly disclaimed any fault, liability, or wrongdoing on the part of the Company. On June 6, 2025, the court conducted a preliminary fairness hearing regarding the Motion. On June 11, 2025, the federal magistrate judge recommended that the court grant the Motion. On July 5, 2025, the court adopted the magistrate’s report and recommendation, and on July 25, 2025, the court granted preliminary approval of the settlement, effective July 5, 2025. Also on July 25, 2025, the court set a final settlement approval hearing date of October 29, 2025. On July 29, 2025, the defendants satisfied their payment obligations under the settlement. On October 29, 2025, the court held a final settlement approval hearing at which no objections to the settlement were raised. Final judgment was entered and the matter was dismissed with prejudice on November 20, 2025.
