ITEM 9A-Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective disclosure
controls and procedures, as defined under Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, that are designed to cause the material information required to be
disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 to be recorded, processed, summarized, and reported to the
extent applicable within the time periods required by the Securities and
Exchange Commission's rules and forms. In designing and evaluating the
disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that a control system,
no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not
absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because
of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls
can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud,
if any, with a company have been detected.
As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company performed an
evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of management,
including the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the
effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and
procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based
upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial
Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective at
the reasonable assurance level.
Report on Management's Assessment of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The management of CNB Corporation is responsible for establishing and
maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control
over financial reporting is defined under applicable Securities and Exchange
Commission rules as a process designed under the supervision of the Company's
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and effected by the
Company's Board of Directors, management and other personnel to provide
reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the
preparation of the Company's financial statements for external purposes in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Company's
internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures
that:
• Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately
and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the
Company;

• Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to
permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the
Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management
and the directors of the Company; and
• Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company's assets that
could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting
may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of
effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance
with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
As of December 31, 2008, management, with the participation of the Company's
Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, assessed the
effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting based
on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting
established in "Internal Control - Integrated Framework," issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission. Based
on the assessment, management determined that the Company's internal control
over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2008.
Plante & Moran PLLC, the independent registered public accounting firm that
audited the consolidated financial statements of the Company included in this
Annual Report on Form 10-K, has issued a report on the Company's internal
control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008. The report, which
expresses an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal
control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008, is included in this
Item under the heading "Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
on Effectiveness of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting."
