Forward-Looking Statement

This discussion contains forward-looking statements under the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that involve risks and
uncertainties.  Although the Company believes that the assumptions
underlying the forward-looking statements contained in the discussion are
reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate, and therefore, no
assurance can be made that any of the forward-looking statements included in
this discussion will be accurate. Factors that could cause actual results to
differ from results discussed in forward-looking statements include, but are
not limited to:  economic conditions (both generally and in the markets
where the Company operates); competition from other providers of financial
services offered by the Company; government regulation and legislation;
changes in interest rates; material unforeseen changes in the financial
stability and liquidity of the Company's credit customers; material
unforeseen complications related to the Year 2000 issues for the Company,
its suppliers, customers and governmental agencies, all of which are
difficult to predict and which may be beyond the control of the Company. The
Company undertakes no obligation to revise forward-looking statements to
reflect events or changes after the date of this discussion or to reflect
the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Financial Condition

Total assets at March 31, 1999, were $215,207,404, representing a
$12,425,489 (6.13%) increase from December 31, 1998. Deposits increased
$12,934,021 (7.41%) from December 31, 1998. Loans decreased $1,389,440
(.95%). The allowance for loan losses at March 31, 1999, totaled $1,880,817,
representing 1.27% of total loans compared to December 31, 1998 total of
$1,707,913 representing 1.15% of total loans. Cash and cash equivalents
increased $14,856,224 from December 31, 1998.

The total of nonperforming assets which includes nonaccruing loans,
repossessed collateral and loans for which payments are more than 90 days
past due increased 31.85% or $493,000 from $1,548,000 at December 31, 1998,
to $2,041,000 at March 31, 1999.  The increase is due to the addition of a
commercial loan relationship of $1,031,000 to non-accrual status during the
first three months of 1999.   There were no related party loans which were
considered nonperforming at March 31, 1999.

The Company's subsidiary bank was most recently examined by its primary
regulatory authority in January 1998. There were no recommendations by the
regulatory authority that in management's opinion will have material effects
on the Company's liquidity, capital resources or operations.

Results of Operations

For the three months ended March 31, 1999, the Company reported net income
of $482,234, or $0.60 per share, compared to $685,993, or $0.85 per share,
for the same period in 1998. Net income for the three months ended March 31,
1999 decreased $203,759, or 30%, compared to the same period in 1998. The
decrease was the primary result of the increase in the provision for loan
losses of $275,650, compared to the same period in 1998.

Net interest income is the primary source of the Company's operating income. 
Net interest income decreased approximately $7,400 (.27%) in the first three
months of 1999 compared to the same period for 1998. Interest income for the
first three months of 1999 was $4,363,395, representing an increase of
$70,093 (1.63%) over the same period in 1998. Interest expense for the first
three months of 1999 increased $77,501 (5.00%) compared to the same period
in 1998. The increase in interest income and interest expense during the
first three months of 1999 compared to the same period in 1998 is primarily
attributable to the increase in the volume of both investment securities and
deposits.

The provision for loan losses for the three months of 1999 increased
$275,650 compared to the same period for 1998.  The increase in the
provision for loan losses is primarily attributable to one commercial loan
relationship of approximately $1,120,000 that has been downgraded to
substandard and a possible substantial loss could be realized on this
relationship throughout the remainder of the year. Net loan charge-offs for
the three months ended March 31, 1999 were $222,331, compared to $50,477,
for the same period in 1998.  It is management's belief that the allowance
for loan losses is adequate to absorb probable losses in the portfolio.

Other operating income increased for the three months ended March 31, 1999
by $111,048, or 21.38%, compared to the same period in 1998, primarily due
to two other real estate properties that were sold and gains of $87,596 were
recognized on those sales during 1999.

Other operating expenses for the first three months of 1999 increased
$172,594 (8.30%) compared to the first three months in 1998. The net
increase is primarily attributable to an increase in employee costs due to
an increase in the number of employees necessary to handle asset growth of
$101,518, an increase in depreciation expense of $45,209 related to Year
2000 purchases and also due to increase in deposit accounts charged-off
during the year of $54,389, compared to the same period in 1998.

Income tax expense, expressed as a percentage of earnings before income
taxes, decreased as tax exempt income relative to pre-tax earnings
increased, causing the income tax to decrease in the first three months of
1999 compared to the same period in 1998.


Year 2000 Preparedness

The use of computer software that relies on a two digit number to define the
applicable year may cause processing problems for computer controlled
systems when the Year 2000 arrives. Malfunction could occur at several other
noted dates as well, such as September 9, 1999. In view of the potential
adverse impact of the Year 2000 problem on the Company and its subsidiary
bank, its customers and its ability to continue to operate as a business,
careful planning must be undertaken to ensure minimal disruption. The
Company has established a centralized function to implement a process to
this end.

The Company's subsidiary, FNB Griffin, performs most of its data processing
in-house using purchased banking software and hardware for its main
applications, such as loans and deposits. Included in these in-house
operations are a teller processing system, a check sorter system, a check
imaging system, and a trust processing system. Besides its main
applications, the bank has a number of ancillary systems connected to
various vendors to process specific work, such as automated teller machines,
credit cards, accounts receivable and accounts payable, mortgage loans,
payroll and the like. In addition, the Bank uses several non-information
systems that are vital to its operation. These include vault and alarm
systems, communications, postal services, utilities and such.

The Bank is also aware of the potential exposure it has to its viability as
a business based on the Year 2000 preparedness of third parties such as its
customers and correspondent banking relationships including the Federal
Reserve Bank. 

The Bank's State of Readiness

The Bank is under the authority of the Office of the Comptroller of the
Currency (the "OCC") who working together with the other bank regulatory
agencies have released an Interagency Statement under which guidance the
Bank is managing the Year 2000 project. This Statement describes five
phases: Awareness, Assessment, Renovation, Validation and Implementation,
and established timelines for completion of each phase. The Bank believes
its mission critical applications are within those guidelines. The Bank
believes that all necessary remediations were completed prior to December
31, 1998.

The Bank established a credit risk management program and a liquidity risk
program to review its business relationships for Year 2000 readiness and
determine any potential risks or exposure. This program includes letters and
questionnaires to major deposit and loan customers, certain suppliers and
vendors. The Bank believes that any issues that may arise due to customer or
vendor risk will be manageable.

Costs Associated with the Bank's Year 2000 Issues

To date, the Bank has spent approximately $500 thousand on upgrading
hardware and software. It has spent at least $100 thousand on testing,
including costs for outside reviews and consultants. Soft costs including
employee time and other resources are estimated to reach $150 thousand. 
Many of the upgrades would have occurred in the normal course of business
over the next several years, but were accelerated due to the Year 2000
issue.

Risk of the Bank's Year 2000 Issues

All the bank's major systems have been remediated and tested.  Testing is
nearly complete for all other systems and review of the testing
documentation is underway.  While the Bank believes it will be adequately
prepared, no assurances can be given that it will not be exposed to
potential losses resulting from problems with its internal systems
associated with the century date change.

Further, the impact of non-compliance by outside parties cannot be
accurately determined. The Year 2000 issue may have a material impact on the
financial condition of the Bank if borrowers of the Bank become insolvent
and are unable to repay loans.

This Bank and others are reliant on the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta to
process much of its work. While some functions, such as wire transfers,
could continue by telephone if the Federal Reserve's automated system does
not perform as expected, certain applications, such as check processing and
automated clearing house transactions are critical to the operation of the
Bank, and if disrupted, would seriously impact the Bank's ability to serve
its customers.  The Bank believes the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta is
aggressively pursuing a Year 2000 compliance strategy and that the risk of
their non-compliance is slight, but it is beyond the control of the Bank and
must be considered. 

Other outsiders whose non-compliance could severely impact the Bank include
the local power provider and telephone companies.

The Bank's Contingency Plans

The Bank has a Business Disruption Contingency Plan that would be
implemented in the event of any internal or external system failure.  The
Plan calls for switching to PC or manual processing, depending on the system
and the nature of the failure.  The Bank is continually reviewing and
refining its plan.  The Bank believes it could continue to operate
regardless of the failure.  It has plans to make loans and process deposits,
receive and disperse cash and update account balances.
