We will have ten branches in Pinellas County, four in Hillsborough, four in Pasco and three each in Manatee and Charlotte," said Trevor Burgess CEO of CBM Florida Holding Company. "Old Harbor has great customers and great employees and we are excited about the prospect of them joining the Community Bank team."

"We continue to invest in recapitalizing Florida banks because we believe in the marketplace and in the recovery of the Tampa Bay economy," said Marcelo Lima, Chairman of CBM Florida Holding Company.
