Dear Winton Shareholder:

 

Enclosed with this letter is the proxy statement/prospectus being sent in connection with the proposed merger of Winton Financial Corporation with and into WesBanco, Inc. You will notice that the proxy statement/prospectus states that it was first being mailed on or about November 1, 2004. However, due to circumstances beyond our control we were not able to mail the proxy statement/prospectus on November 1, 2004. Accordingly, all references to the mailing date in the proxy statement/prospectus are hereby changed to state that the proxy statement/prospectus was first mailed on or about November 3, 2004.

 

In addition, the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by WesBanco, Inc. with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 2, 2004 should be added to the list of Current Reports on Form 8-K that are incorporated by reference into the proxy statement/prospectus on page 60.

 

Thank you for your cooperation in this matter and we regret any inconvenience that this may have caused you.

 

Sincerely,
