Issuer Delisting; Notice of Application of PAB Bankshares, Inc. 
To Withdraw Its Common Stock, No Par Value, From Listing and 
Registration on the American Stock Exchange LLC

November 8, 2005.
    On October 26, 2005, PAB Bankshares, Inc., a Georgia corporation 
(``Issuer''), filed an application with the Securities and Exchange 
Commission (``Commission''), pursuant to section 12(d) of the 
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') \1\ and Rule 12d2-2(d) 
thereunder,\2\ to withdraw its common stock, no par value 
(``Security''), from listing and registration on the American Stock 
Exchange LLC (``Amex'').

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78l(d).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.12d2-2(d).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On October 25, 2005, the Board of Directors (``Board'') of the 
Issuer unanimously approved resolutions to withdraw the Security from 
listing and registration on Amex and to list the Security on the Nasdaq 
National Market (``Nasdaq''). The Issuer stated that the Board believes 
listing the Security on Nasdaq will provide better visibility for the 
Security, improve liquidity in the Security, and provide better 
execution quality for investors. The Board also noted that more of its 
peer financial institutions are listed on Nasdaq than on Amex.
    The Issuer stated in its application that it has met the 
requirements of Amex Rule 18 by complying with all applicable laws in 
effect in the state of Georgia, in which it is incorporated, and 
provided written notice of withdrawal to Amex.
    The Issuer's application relates solely to withdrawal of the 
Security from listing on the Amex and from registration under section 
12(b) of the Act,\3\ and shall not affect its obligation to be 
registered under section 12(g) of the Act.\4\
