To the Shareholders of TransCommunity Financial Corporation:
We have learned that our mailing of the joint proxy

our shareholders sufficient time to review the materials and to
submit their proxy cards
and/or
attend our special meeting, we have set a new date for the
special meeting of shareholders of Monday, April 28, 2008
at 10:00 a.m. local time. The special meeting will still be
held at The Place at Innsbrook, 4036-C Cox Road, Glen Allen,

At this special meeting, shareholders of record as of

upon the following:
|

|
|
1.
|
a proposal to approve the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as
of September 5, 2007, by and between Community Bankers
Acquisition Corp. and TransCommunity Financial Corporation,
pursuant to which TransCommunity Financial Corporation will
merge with and into Community Bankers Acquisition Corp., as more
particularly described in the joint proxy statement/prospectus
previously sent to you; and
|
|
|
2.

a proposal to authorize the board of directors to adjourn the
special meeting to allow time for further solicitation of
proxies, in the event there are insufficient votes represented
in person or by proxy at the special meeting to approve the
merger proposal.
|
You will continue to have the right to assert appraisal rights
with respect to the merger and demand in writing that Community
Bankers pay the fair value of your shares of TransCommunity

order to exercise and perfect appraisal rights, generally you
must:

|
|
|
|
not vote any shares owned by you in favor of the merger;
|
|
|
|
deliver written notice of your intent to demand payment for your
shares to TransCommunity before the vote is taken on the merger
at the special meeting;
|
|
|
|
complete, sign and return the form to be sent to you pursuant to
Section 13.1-734
of the Virginia Stock Corporation Act; and
|
|
|
|
if you hold certificated shares, deposit your TransCommunity
common stock certificates in accordance with the instructions in
the form.

A copy of the applicable Virginia statutory provisions is
included in the joint proxy statement/prospectus as
Appendix C, and a more detailed description of the
procedures to demand and perfect appraisal rights is included in
the section entitled The Merger Appraisal
Rights of TransCommunity Stockholders beginning on
page 95.
If you have not already done so, please complete, date, sign and
return the proxy card that was enclosed with the joint proxy
statement/prospectus as promptly as possible whether or not you
plan on attending the special meeting in person. Any
TransCommunity shareholder may revoke his or her proxy by
following the instructions in the joint proxy
statement/prospectus at any time before the proxy has been voted
at the special meeting. Even if you have given your proxy, you
may still vote in person if you attend the special meeting.
Please do not send any stock certificates to TransCommunity at
this time.
We encourage you to vote on this very important matter, and
our Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote
FOR the proposals above.
