Exhibit 99.1

July 10, 2002

Dear Shareholder:

As a result of being removed from the Written Agreement effective June 14, 2002, the Company is no longer required to obtain special regulatory approval prior to announcing or paying shareholder dividends.

As a result of continuing profitability, the Company is pleased to announce the continuation of quarterly dividends for the second quarter of year 2002.  Your check or statement representing $0.05 per share is enclosed.

The termination of the Written Agreement has been the Company’s primary strategic objective since November of 2000.   In just eighteen months, the twenty-five paragraphs contained in the Agreement have been fully complied with and the common goal to restore and maintain the financial soundness of the Company has been completed.  A copy of the News Release is enclosed for your perusal.

As the News Release states:  “The Company’s continuing progress and success is attributable to the joint diligent efforts of Directors, Officers, and Staff, coupled with steadfast Shareholder, Customer, and Community support.”

You may be assured that the Board, Management, and Staff will continue to focus our efforts on further strengthening the Company, improving financial performance, and building shareholder value.

Sincerely,

CSB BANCORP, INC.
