NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail why the Form 10-K, 11-K, 20-F 10-Q, N-SAR or the transition report portion thereof could not be filed within the prescribed time period. (Attach extra sheets if needed.)

United Security Bancshares (the "Company") reviews its status as an accelerated filer as of June 30th each year. At June 30, 2009 the Company determined that Common Stock held by non-affiliates totaled $43,114,654 which was below the threshold to be considered an accelerated filer. There was a misunderstanding of the filing deadline requirements and the Company believed that it was subject to the non-accelerated filler deadlines as of June 30, 2009 which would have been a filing deadline of August 14, 2009. As such the Company has not filed the Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") within the prescribed time period. The Company is finalizing the document with its external auditors and intends to file all documents required for its 10-Q filing within five (5) business days of the August 10, 2009 due date.

PART IV
OTHER INFORMATION

(1) Name and telephone number of person to contact in regard to this notification

(2) Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If the answer is no, identify report(s). |X| Yes |_| No

(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof? |X| Yes |_| No

If so: attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.

The Registrant, United Security Bancshares, anticipates that its results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2009 will reflect a net loss of approximately $4.8 million or $0.39 per share, when compared to the prior year's reported net income of $4.6 million, primarily as a result of larger loan loss provisions taken during the six months ended June 30, 2009 and a goodwill impairment loss of $3.0 million recognized during the second quarter of 2009. The Registrants are in the process finalizing their review of the Company's financial statements and will have them completed and filed by the August 14, 2009 deadline.

Has caused this notification to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
