Interest Rate Repricing Gaps

The management of interest rate sensitivity is accomplished by monitoring the
maturities and repricing opportunities of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities. Amounts are positioned into rate maturity
periods based upon contractual or historical experience of frequency of
repricing the respective assets and liabilities. The following table
summarizes the interest rate repricing gaps for selected maturity periods as
of December 31, 1995:

------- ------- ------- -------
Cumulative gap $(34,368) $(41,655) $(25,773) $109,660
------- ------- ------- -------



Total interest-earning assets exceeded interest-bearing liabilities by
$109,660,000 at December 31, 1995. This difference was funded through
noninterest-bearing liabilities and stockholders' equity. The above table
shows that total interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within
one year exceed interest-earning assets maturing or repricing by
$25,773,000. Theoretically, in a period of rising interest rates, it is
preferable to have a positive gap (interest-earning assets in excess of
interest-bearing liabilities) because more interest-earning assets should
mature or reprice within a given time period than interest-bearing
liabilities to increase interest income in excess of the increase in interest
expense. Conversely, theoretically, in a period of declining interest rates,
it is preferable to be in a negative gap position (interest-bearing
liabilities in excess of interest-earning assets) because more interest-
bearing liabilities should mature or reprice to lower interest expense in
excess of the decline in interest income. Because assets and liabilities do
not reprice in exactly the same manner as interest levels change, the above
table should not be viewed as a sole indicator of how the Bancorp will be
affected by changes in interest rates.

Maturities of Loans and Sensitivity to Changes in Interest Rates

The following table is a summary of maturities of loans by certain
categories at December 31, 1995 in thousands of dollars:




Due after

less 5 years 5 years Total
------- ------- -------- -----

Commercial, financial,
and agricultural $82,659 $47,102 $11,719 $141,480
Real estate construction 17,199 7,584 0 24,783



Commercial, financial, and agricultural loans due after one year in the
amount of $31,353,000 at December 31, 1995 have floating or adjustable
interest rates. Such loans with fixed rates totaled $27,468,000. Real
estate construction loans due after one year in the amount of $6,316,000
have floating or adjustable interest rates. Such loans with fixed rates
totaled $1,268,000. Floating or adjustable interest rate loans are those
on which the interest rate can be adjusted to changes in the prime rate or
other rate changes. Fixed rate loans are those on which the interest rate
cannot be changed for the term of the loan.




Page 11



Risk Elements

Nonaccrual, past due and restructured loans include, respectively,
loans on which no interest is currently being accrued, accruing loans
which are past due 90 days or more as to principal or interest
payments and loans neither in nonaccrual status nor 90 days delinquent
status on which the terms of maturity or interest rate have been
renegotiated to provide a reduction or deferral of interest or
principal payments, due to a deterioration in the financial position
of the borrower. It is management's general policy to discontinue the
accrual of interest on a loan when it is past due 90 days with regard
to either interest or principal payments. At any given date,
Bancorp's subsidiaries may have various loans outstanding, which are
accruing interest, are not contractually past due more than 90 days,
and are not renegotiated, but which, in management's opinion, may not
be repaid according to original terms; these are shown below as
"potential loan problems". Management periodically reviews these
loan accounts and is of the opinion that, although some restructuring
of loan terms may be required, no material loss of principal will occur.

The following is a summary of loans described above at the dates
indicated, in thousands of dollars:

Potential Loan Problems(1) 5,198 4,389 2,188 8,969 3,878



(1)Loans in this category represent those which have been periodically
delinquent as to the payment of principal and interest and are vulnerable
to current adverse economic conditions. The collateral position of
Bancorp's subsidiaries on these loans mitigates the amount of loss exposure
when viewed in their entirety. There were no foreign outstandings or loan
concentrations at the dates indicated. Amounts for Potential Loan Problems
