PART I



Item 1. Business



General



The Bank of South Carolina (the “Bank”)
was organized on October 22, 1986 and opened for business as a state-chartered financial institution on February 26, 1987, in Charleston,
South Carolina. The Bank was reorganized into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bank of South Carolina Corporation (the “Company”),
effective April 17, 1995. At the time of the reorganization, each outstanding share of the Bank was exchanged for two shares of
Bank of South Carolina Corporation Stock.



The Bank operates as an independent, community
oriented, commercial bank providing a broad range of financial services and products. We have four banking house locations: 256
Meeting Street, Charleston, SC, 100 North Main Street, Summerville, SC, 1337 Chuck Dawley Boulevard, Mt. Pleasant, SC and 2027
Sam Rittenberg Boulevard, Charleston, SC. We intend to open a banking office in North Charleston, SC on Highway 78 and Ingleside
Boulevard in 2015.



References to “we,” “us,”
“our,” “the Bank,” or “the Company” refer to the parent and its subsidiary, that are consolidated
for financial purposes.



The Company (“BKSC”) is publicly
traded on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations (NASDAQ), and is under the reporting authority of
the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). All of the our electronic filings with the SEC, including our Annual
Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and other documents filed or furnished pursuant
to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, are accessible at no cost on our website, www.banksc.com, through
the “Investor Relations” link. Our filings are also available through the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov or by calling
1-800-SEC-0330.



At December 31, 2013, we employed 78 people,
with 1 individual considered part time, none of whom are subject to a collective bargaining agreement. We provide a variety of
benefit programs including an Employee Stock Ownership Plan and Trust, health, life, disability and other insurance. We believe
our relationship with our employees is excellent.



Competition



The financial services industry is highly competitive.
We face competition in attracting deposits and originating loans based upon a variety of factors including:

| | · | interest rates offered on deposit accounts
| | - | ------------------------------------------



| | · | interest rates charged on loans
| | - | -------------------------------



| | · | credit and service charges
| | - | --------------------------



| | · | the quality of services rendered
| | - | --------------------------------



| | · | the convenience of banking facilities and
other delivery channels and
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | in the case of loans, relative lending limits.
| | - | ----------------------------------------------



Direct competition for deposits and loans principally
comes from local and national financial institutions as well as consumer and commercial finance companies, insurance companies,
brokerage firms, some of which are not subject to the same degree of regulation and restrictions as the Bank. Many of these competitors
have substantially greater resources and lending limits than we have and offer certain services, such as trust and international
banking services, which we do not provide. We do, however, provide a means for clearing international checks and drafts through
a correspondent bank.



By emphasizing our exceptional service levels, and knowledge of
local trends and conditions, we believe the Company has developed an effective competitive advantage in our market area which includes
Charleston, Berkeley and Dorchester counties of South Carolina.

Supervision and Regulation



We are subject to extensive state and federal
banking laws and regulations that impose specific requirements or restrictions on and provide for general regulatory oversight
of virtually all aspects of operations. The regulations are primarily intended to protect depositors, customers, and the integrity
of the U.S. banking system and capital markets. The following information describes some of the more significant laws and regulations
applicable to us. The description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the applicable laws and regulations. Proposals to
change the laws and regulations governing the banking industry are frequently raised in Congress, in state legislatures, and with
the various bank regulatory agencies. Changes in applicable laws or regulations, or a change in the way such laws or regulations
are interpreted by regulatory agencies or courts, may have a material impact on our business operations and earnings.



Dodd-Frank Act



On July 21, 2010, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street
Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) became effective. This law has broadly affected the financial
services industry by implementing changes to the financial regulatory landscape aimed at strengthening the sound operation of the
financial services industry, and will continue to significantly change the current bank regulatory structure and affect the lending,
deposit, investment, trading and operating activities of financial institutions and their holding companies, including the Company
and the Bank. Under the Dodd-Frank Act a broad range of new rules and regulations by various federal agencies have been implemented,
and further rulemaking must be proposed and adopted which will take effect over several years. Although we have already experienced
some decrease in revenue as a result of the rules implemented under the Dodd-Frank Act, the overall financial impact the Act will
have on the Company, our customers or the financial industry in general remains difficult to anticipate.



Bank Holding Company Act



The Company is a one bank holding company under
the federal Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “Bank Holding Company Act”). As a result, the Company is
primarily subject to the supervision, examination and reporting requirements of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve (the
“Federal Reserve”) under the Bank Holding Company Act and its regulations promulgated thereunder. Moreover, as a bank
holding company located in South Carolina, the Company is also subject to the regulations of the South Carolina State Board of
Financial Institutions.



Capital Requirements



The Federal Reserve Board imposes certain capital
requirements on the Company under the Bank Holding Company Act, including a minimum leverage ratio and minimum ratio of “qualifying”
capital to risk-weighted assets. These requirements are essentially the same as those that apply to the Bank and are described
under “Regulatory Capital Requirements” in the notes to the financial statements. The ability of the Company to pay dividends
depends on the Bank’s ability to pay dividends to the Company, which is subject to regulatory restrictions as described below in
“Dividends”.



Standards for Safety and Soundness



The Federal Deposit Insurance Act requires
the federal banking regulatory agencies to prescribe, by regulation or guideline, operational and managerial standards for all
insured depository institutions relating to (1) internal controls, information systems and internal audit systems, (2) loan documentation,
(3) credit underwriting, (4) interest rate risk exposure, and (5) asset growth. The agencies also must prescribe standards for
asset quality, earnings, and stock valuation, as well as standards for compensation, fees, and benefits. The federal banking agencies
have adopted regulations and Interagency Guidelines Prescribing Standards for Safety and Soundness to implement these required
standards. These guidelines set forth the safety and soundness standards that the federal banking agencies use to identify and
address problems at insured depository institutions before capital becomes impaired.





4







Regulatory Examination



All insured institutions must undergo regular
on-site examinations by their appropriate banking agency. The cost of examinations of insured depository institutions and any affiliates
may be assessed by the appropriate banking agency against each institution or affiliate as it deems necessary or appropriate. Insured
institutions are required to submit annual reports to the FDIC, their federal regulatory agency, and state supervisor when applicable.
The federal banking regulatory agencies prescribe, by regulation, standards for all insured depository institutions and depository
institution holding companies relating, among other things, to the following:



| | · | Internal controls
| | - | -----------------



| | · | Information systems and audit systems
| | - | -------------------------------------



| | · | Loan documentation
| | - | ------------------



| | · | Credit underwriting
| | - | -------------------



| | · | Interest rate risk exposure
| | - | ---------------------------



| | · | Asset quality
| | - | -------------



| | · | Liquidity
| | - | ---------



| | · | Capital Adequacy
| | - | ----------------



| | · | Bank Secrecy Act
| | - | ----------------



| | · | Sensitivity to Market Risk
| | - | --------------------------



Transactions with Affiliates and Insiders



We are subject to certain restrictions on extensions
of credit to executive officers, directors, certain principal shareholders, and their related interests. Such extensions of credit
(1) must be made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates, and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for
comparable transactions with third parties and (2) must not involve more than the normal risk of repayment or present other unfavorable
features.



Dividends



The Company’s principal source of cash flow,
including cash flow to pay dividends to its shareholders, is dividends it receives from the Bank. Statutory and regulatory limitations
apply to the Bank’s payment of dividends to the Company. As a general rule, the amount of a dividend may not exceed, without prior
regulatory approval, the sum of net income in the calendar year to date and the retained net earnings of the immediately preceding
two calendar years. A depository institution may not pay any dividend if payment would cause the institution to become undercapitalized
or if it already is undercapitalized.



Consumer Protection Regulations



Activities of the Bank are subject to a variety
of statutes and regulations designed to protect consumers. Interest and other charges collected by the Bank are subject to state
usury laws and federal laws concerning interest rates. Our loan operations are also subject to federal laws applicable to credit
transactions such as:



| | · | The federal Truth-In-Lending Act, governing
disclosures of credit terms to consumer borrowers
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | The Home Mortgage Disclosure Act of 1975,
requiring financial institutions to provide information to enable the public and public officials to determine whether a financial
institution is fulfilling its obligation to help meet the housing needs of the community it serves
| | - | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | The Equal Credit Opportunity Act, prohibiting
discrimination on the basis of race, creed or other prohibited factors in extending credit
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | The Fair Credit Reporting Act of 1978, governing
the use and provision of information to credit reporting agencies
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | The Fair Debt Collection Act, governing
the manner in which consumer debt may be collected by collection agencies
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | The rules and regulations of the various
federal agencies charged with the responsibility of implementing such federal laws.
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------





5







The deposit operations of the Bank also are
subject to:



| | · | The Right to Financial Privacy Act, which
imposes a duty to maintain confidentiality of consumer financial records and prescribes procedures for complying with administrative
subpoenas of financial records
| | - | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | The Electronic Funds Transfer Act and Regulation
E issued by the Federal Reserve Board to implement that Act, which governs automatic deposits to and withdrawals from deposit and
customer’s rights and liabilities arising from the use of automated teller machines and other electronic banking services
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | Regulation DD which implements the Truth
in Savings Act to enable consumers to make informed decisions about deposit accounts at depository institutions. Regulation DD
requires depository institutions to provide disclosures so that consumers can make meaningful comparisons among depository institutions.
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Enforcement Powers



The Company is subject to supervision and examination
by the Federal Reserve and the South Carolina State Board of Financial Institutions. The Bank is subject to extensive federal and
state regulations that significantly affect business and activities. These regulatory bodies have broad authority to implement
standards and to initiate proceedings designed to prohibit depository institutions from engaging in activities that represent unsafe
or unsound banking practices or constitute violations of applicable laws, rules, regulations, administrative orders, or written
agreements with regulators. These regulatory bodies are authorized to take action against institutions that fail to meet such standards,
including the assessment of civil monetary penalties, the issuance of cease-and-desist orders, and other actions.



Bank Secrecy Act/Anti-Money Laundering



We are subject to the Bank Secrecy Act and
other anti-money laundering laws and regulations, including the USA Patriot Act of 2001. We must maintain a Bank Secrecy Act Program
that includes (1) established internal policies, procedures, and controls, (2) a designated compliance officer, (3) an ongoing
employee training program and, (4) testing of the program by an independent audit function. The USA Patriot Act amended in part
the Bank Secrecy Act provides for the facilitation of information sharing among governmental entities and the Company for the purpose
of combating terrorism and money laundering by enhancing anti-money laundering and financial transparency laws, as well as enhanced
information collection tools and enforcement mechanics for the US government. These provisions include (1) requiring standards
for verifying customer identification at account opening, (2) rules to promote cooperation among financial institutions, regulators,
and law enforcement entities in identifying parties that may be involved in terrorism or money laundering, and (3) filing suspicious
activity reports if the Company believes a customer may be violating US laws and regulations.



Privacy and Credit Reporting



In connection with its lending activities,
we are subject to a number of federal laws designed to protect borrowers and promote lending to various sectors of the economy
and population. These include the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Truth-in-Lending Act, the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, the
Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, and the Community Reinvestment Act (the “CRA”). In addition, federal banking regulators,
pursuant to the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, have enacted regulations limiting the ability of banks and other financial institutions
to disclose nonpublic consumer information to non-affiliated third parties. The regulations require disclosure of privacy policies
and allow consumers to prevent certain personal information from being shared with nonaffiliated third parties. The CRA requires
the appropriate federal banking agency, in connection with its examination of a bank, to assess the bank’s record in meeting the
credit needs of the communities served by the bank, including low and moderate income neighborhoods. Under the CRA, institutions
are assigned a rating of “outstanding,” “satisfactory,” “needs to improve,” or “substantial
non-compliance.”



The Dodd-Frank Act created the Consumer Financial
Protection Bureau (the “CFPB”) as an agency to centralize responsibility for consumer financial protection, including
implementing, examining and enforcing compliance with federal consumer financial laws. The CFPB has begun exercising supervisory
review of banks under its jurisdiction. The CFPB is expected to focus its rulemaking in several areas, particularly in the areas
of mortgage reform involving the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, the Truth in Lending Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity
Act, and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act; however, the content of the final rules and impact to our businesses are uncertain
at this time. Additional rulemakings to come under the Dodd-Frank Act will dictate compliance changes for financial institutions.
Any such changes in regulations or regulatory policies applicable to the Bank make it difficult to predict the ultimate effect
on our financial condition or results of operations.

Check 21



The Check Clearing for the 21st
Century Act gives “substitute checks,” such as a digital image of a check and copies made from that image, the same legal
standing as the original paper check. The following are some of the major provisions:



| | · | Allowing check truncation without making
it mandatory
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------

| | · | Demanding that every financial institution
communicate to account holders in writing a description of its substitute check processing program and their rights under the law
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | · | Legalizing substitutions for and replacement
of paper checks without agreement from consumers
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | · | Retaining in place the previously mandated
electronic collection and return of checks between financial institutions only when individuals agreements are in place
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | · | Requiring that when account holders request
verification, financial institutions produce the original check (or a copy that accurately represents the original) and demonstrate
that the account debit was accurate and valid
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | · | Requiring the re-crediting of funds to an
individual’s account on the next business day after a consumer proves that the financial institution has erred.

Item 2. Properties



The Company’s headquarters is located at 256
Meeting Street in downtown Charleston, South Carolina. This site is also the location of the main office of its subsidiary, The
Bank of South Carolina. In addition to the Meeting Street location, the Bank currently operates from three additional locations:
100 North Main Street, Summerville, SC, 1337 Chuck Dawley Boulevard, Mount Pleasant, SC, and 2027 Sam Rittenberg Boulevard, Charleston,
South Carolina. The Bank’s mortgage department is located at 1071 Morrison Drive, Charleston, SC. On January 28, 2014, we signed
a lease to open a banking office on Highway 78 and Ingleside Boulevard , North Charleston, South Carolina in 2015 (copy of the
lease incorporated herein as Exhibit 10.8). The Company owns the 2027 Sam Rittenberg Boulevard location which also houses the Operations
Department of the Bank. All other locations are leased. The owned location is not encumbered and all of the leases have renewal
options. Each banking location is suitable and adequate for banking operations.



Item 3. Legal Proceedings



On January 20, 2014 we were served with a civil
complaint for imperfect securitization of a Note and/or Mortgage. We closed this loan on June 22, 2006 using a MERS Mortgage. The
loan was then sold to Countrywide (now known as Bank of America). Our Note was endorsed to Countrywide prior to submitting the
loan for their purchase review. After the loan was purchased on July 10, 2006, the transfer was completed for the sale of the Mortgage
to Countrywide on the MERS registration system on July 12, 2006. Our legal counsel is reviewing the suit. We believe there will
be no loss in the case.



In our opinion, there are no other legal proceedings
pending other than routine litigation incidental to its business involving amounts which are not material to our financial condition.

2014, there were approximately 1,400 shareholders of record with shares held by individuals and in nominee names. The market price
for our common stock as of February 28, 2014, was $15.06.



The future payment of cash dividends is subject
to the discretion of the Board of Directors and depends upon a number of factors, including future earnings, financial condition,
cash requirements, and general business conditions. Cash dividends, when declared, are paid by the Bank to the Company for distribution
to shareholders of the Company. Certain regulatory requirements restrict the amount of dividends which the Bank can pay to the
Company.

of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 128,108 shares of its common stock on the open market. At our October, 1999 Board

shares of common stock outstanding.

THE BANK OF SOUTH CAROLINA EMPLOYEE STOCK
OWNERSHIP PLAN AND TRUST



During 1989, the Board of Directors of the
Bank adopted an Employee Stock Ownership Plan and Trust Agreement to provide retirement benefits to eligible employees of the Bank
for long and faithful service. An amendment and restatement was made to the Employee Stock Ownership Plan effective January 1,
2007 and approved by the Board of Directors January 18, 2007. Periodically, the Internal Revenue Service “IRS” requires
a restatement of a qualified retirement plan to ensure that the plan document includes provisions required by legislative and regulatory
changes made since the last restatement. There have been no substantive changes to the plan, however, to comply with the IRS rules,
the Board of Directors approved a restated plan, on January 26, 2012 (incorporated as Exhibit 10.5 in the 2011 10-K). The Plan
was submitted to the IRS for approval and a determination letter was issued September 26, 2013, stating that the plan satisfies
the requirements of Code Section 4975 (e) (7).



The Board of Directors of the Bank approved
the cash contribution of $280,000 to The Bank of South Carolina Employee Stock Ownership Plan for the fiscal year ended December
31, 2013. The contribution was made during 2013.



An employee of the Bank who is not a member
of an ineligible class of employees is eligible to participate in the plan upon reaching 21 years of age and being credited with
one year of service (1,000 hours of service). All employees are eligible employees except for the following ineligible classes
of employees:



| | · | Employees whose employment is governed by
a collective bargaining agreement between employee representatives and the Company in which retirement benefits were the subject
of good faith bargaining unless the collective bargaining agreement expressly provides for the inclusion of such employees in the
plan
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | Employees who are non-resident aliens who
do not receive earned income from the Company which constitutes income from sources within the United States
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | Any person who becomes an employee as the
result of certain asset or stock acquisitions, mergers, or similar transactions (but only during a transitional period)
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | Certain leased employees
| | - | ------------------------



| | · | Employees who are employed by an affiliated
Company that does not adopt the plan
| | - | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | · | Any person who is deemed by the Company

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations



Management’s discussion and analysis is included
to assist the Shareholder in understanding our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flow. This discussion should
be reviewed in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes presented in Item 8 of this
report and the supplemental financial data appearing throughout this report. Since the primary asset of the Company is its wholly-owned
subsidiary, most of the discussion and analysis relates to the Bank.

the heading “Risk Factors” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 as filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC”) and the following:



|· | Risk from changes in economic, monetary policy, and industry conditions                                                         
|- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|· | Changes in interest rates, shape of the yield curve, deposit rates, the net interest margin and funding sources                 
|· | Market risk (including net income at risk analysis and economic value of equity risk analysis) and inflation                    
|· | Risk inherent in making loans including repayment risks and changes in the value of collateral                                  
|· | Loan growth, the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, provisions for loan losses, and
    the assessment of problem  loans
|· | Level, composition, and re-pricing characteristics of the securities portfolio                                                  
|· | Deposit growth, change in the mix or type of deposit products and services                                                      
|· | Continued availability of senior management

|· | Ability to control expenses                                                                                                     
|· | Changes in compensation                                                                                                         
|· | Risks associated with income taxes including potential for adverse adjustments                                                  
|· | Changes in accounting policies and practices                                                                                    
|· | Changes in regulatory actions, including the potential for adverse adjustments                                                  
|· | Recently enacted or proposed legislation                                                                                        
|· | Current uncertainty in the financial service industry                                                                           



These risks are exacerbated by the developments
over the last five years in national and international financial markets, and we are unable to predict what effect continued uncertainty
in market conditions will have on us. There can be no assurance that the unprecedented developments experienced over the last five
years will not materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

OVERVIEW



Bank of South Carolina Corporation (the “Company”)
is a financial institution holding company headquartered in Charleston, South Carolina, with $340.9 million in assets as of December
31, 2013 and net income of $969,868 and $4,076,924, respectively, for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2013. The
Company offers a broad range of financial services through its wholly-owned subsidiary, The Bank of South Carolina (the “Bank”).
The Bank is a state-chartered commercial bank which operates principally in the Charleston, Dorchester, and Berkeley counties of
South Carolina. The Bank’s original and current concept is to be a full service financial institution specializing in personal
service, responsiveness, attention to detail to foster long standing relationships.



We derive most of our income from interest
on loans and investments (interest bearing assets). The primary source of funding for making these loans and investments is our
interest and non-interest bearing deposits. Consequently, one of the key measures of the our success is the amount of net interest
income, or the difference between the income on its interest earning assets, such as loans and investments, and the expense on
its interest bearing liabilities, such as deposits. Another key measure is the spread between the yield we earn on these interest
bearing assets and the rate we pay on our interest bearing liabilities.



A consequence of lending activities is that
we may incur credit losses. The amount of such losses will vary depending upon the risk characteristics of the loan and lease portfolio
as affected by economic conditions such as rising interest rates and the financial performance of borrowers. The reserve for credit
losses consists of the allowance for loan and lease losses (the “Allowance”) and a reserve for unfunded commitments (the
“Unfunded Reserve”). The Allowance provides for probable and estimable losses inherent in our loan and lease portfolio.
The Allowance is increased or decreased through the provisioning process. For a detailed discussion on the allowance for loan losses
see “Allowance for Loan Losses”.



In addition to earning interest on loans and
investments, we earn income through fees and other expenses we charge to the customer. The following discussion includes various
components of this non-interest income and non-interest expenses. The discussion and analysis also identifies significant factors
that have affected the Company’s financial position and operating results as of December 31, 2013 as compared to December 31, 2012
and December 31, 2012 as compared to December 31, 2011, and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the
related notes included in this report. In addition, a number of tables have been included to assist in the discussion.



CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES



We adopted various accounting policies that
govern the application of principles generally accepted in the United States and with general practices within the banking industry
in the preparation of our financial statements. Our significant accounting policies are set forth in the notes to the consolidated
financial statements in this report.



Certain accounting policies involve significant
judgments and assumptions by the Company that have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities. We
consider these accounting policies to be critical accounting policies. The judgment and assumptions we use are based on historical
experience and other factors, which we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the number of judgments and
assumptions that we make, actual results could differ from these judgments and estimates that could have a material impact on the
carrying values of our assets and liabilities and results of operations.





13







We consider our policy regarding the allowance
for loan losses to be its most subjective accounting policy due to the significant degree of management judgment. We have developed
what we believe to be appropriate policies and procedures for assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, recognizing
that this process requires a number of assumptions and estimates with respect to our loan portfolio. Our assessments may be impacted
in future periods by changes in economic conditions, the impact of regulatory examinations and the discovery of information with
respect to borrowers which were not known by management at the time of the issuance of the consolidated financial statements. For
additional discussion concerning our allowance for loan losses and related matters, see “Allowance for loan losses”.



COMPARISON OF THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2013 TO DECEMBER 31, 2012



Net income increased $410,096 or 11.18% to
$4,076,924 or basic and diluted earnings per share of $.92 and $.91, respectively for the year ended December 31, 2013 from $3,666,828
or basic and diluted earnings per share of $.82 and $.82, respectively for the year ended December 31, 2012. Our return on average
assets and average equity for the year ended December 31, 2013 were 1.23% and 11.72%, respectively, compared with 1.16% and 10.97%,
respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2012.



Our higher income was primarily due to the
following:



|· | Interest and fees on loans increased $155,821 or 1.41% to $11,188,748. Outstanding loans increased $1,191,680
or 0.55% as a result of an improving market leading to an increase in loan
demand. Average loans increased $5,486,600 with a yield of 4.94% for the year ended December 31, 2013, from $220,780,471
for the year ended December 31, 2012 and a yield of 5.00%.

|· | Interest and dividends on investment securities increased $135,074 or 10.02% to $1,482,594
for the year ended December 31, 2013, from $1,347,520 in 2012. We were earning .25% on our funds deposited at the Federal
Reserve. This low rate coupled with a rising yield curve gave us reason to invest our excess cash in investment securities. Average
investments increased $9,501,384 to $67,484,036 with a yield of 2.20%

|· | The provision for loan losses decreased $142,500 to $207,500 for the year ended December 31, 2013.

|· | Mortgage banking income increased $143,782 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013.
    Mortgage banking income was $1,521,670 in 2013, compared to $1,377,888 in 2012. This increase was due to obtaining better margins(discounts earned and service release premiums) selling loans on the secondary market. Our software’s pricing engine allowed a side by side comparison allowing us to execute the most profit on each loan. Mortgage discount points,
    a form of interest, increased $301,378 to $1,547,649 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013.

|· | Other operating expenses decreased $209,412 or 8.99% for the twelve months ended
    December 31, 2013. With the introduction of new banking products such as remote deposit capture, we were able to reduce the
    cost of our courier service by $58,605 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013 compared to the same period in
    2012. Data processing fees decreased $115,731 as a result of the renegotiation of our contract.
    Professional audit and legal fees were reduced by $45,500 and $55,823, respectively. We lowered our audit fees by hiring a
    Risk Management Officer who conducts our Sarbanes Oxley Act testing in-house. Legal fees were reduced as the result of fewer
    cases brought by the Company or those against the Company which required legal review. Offsetting these decreases was
    an increase of $73,980 in sundry losses from $6,102 in 2012 to $80,081 in 2013. This loss resulted from fraud by persons
    outside the Company. We believe that our internal controls have been designed to minimize losses.
    However, there are no assurances that a loss will not occur.

Net interest income is affected by the size
and mix of our balance sheet components as well as the spread between interest earned on assets and interest paid on liabilities.
Net interest margin is a measuring of the difference between interest income on earning assets less interest paid on interest bearing
liabilities relative to the amount of interest bearing assets. Net interest income increased $328,424 to $12,335,664 for the year
ended December 31, 2013, from $12,007,240 for the year ended December 31, 2012. Our average earning assets increased $14,125,768
in 2013 as compared to 2012. Average loans increased $5,486,600 with a yield of 4.94%, a decrease of 6 basis points. We made a
decision to invest some of our excess cash in securities rather than leaving it at the Federal Reserve where it was earning .25%.
Average investments increased $9,501,384 with a yield of 2.20%. Total yield on our average earnings assets decreased 9 basis points
from 4.01% in 2012 to 3.92% in 2013. Our net interest margin decreased 7 basis points to 3.79% in 2013 from 3.86% in 2012.



Average interest bearing deposits increased
$4,536,053 to $210,108,383 in 2013, with a total yield of .20%, a decrease of 2 basis points from .22% at December 31, 2012. Our
interest paid on deposits decreased $39,491 or 8.67% to $416,128 in 2013 compared to $455,619 in 2012. Rates paid on our interest
bearing liabilities decreased 2 basis points to .20% in 2013. Rates paid on transaction accounts and savings accounts remained
unchanged from 2012 to 2013. The rate paid on certificates of deposit decreased 11 basis points from .54% in 2012 to .43% for the
year ended December 31, 2013.



The provision for loan losses reflects our
judgment of the expense or benefit necessary to achieve the appropriate amount of the allowance for loan losses (the “allowance”).
We maintain the allowance at levels adequate to cover our estimate of probable credit losses as of the balance sheet date presented.
The allowance is determined through detailed analyses of our loan portfolio. The allowance is based on our loss experience and
changes in the economic environment, as well as an ongoing assessment of our credit quality. We recorded a provision of $207,500
in 2013 and $350,000 in 2012. The lower provision recorded in 2013 was reflective of continued improvements in our credit quality
metrics. For further discussion on the allowance, see “Allowance for Loan Losses.”



The allowance consists of an allocated and
unallocated allowance. The allocated portion is determined by types and ratings of loans within the portfolio. The unallocated
portion of the allowance is established for losses that exist in the remainder of the portfolio and compensates for uncertainty
in estimating the loan losses. We had $205,904 in unallocated reserves at December 31, 2013 as compared to $376,067 at December
31, 2012. Management believes this amount is appropriate and properly supported through the environmental factors of its allowance
for loan losses.



There can be no assurance that charge-offs
of loans in future periods will not exceed the allowance for loan losses as estimated at any point in time or that provisions for
loan losses will not be significant to a particular accounting period. In addition the allowance is subject to examination and
testing for adequacy by regulatory agencies. Such regulatory agencies could require management to adjust the allowance based on
information available to them at the time of their examination.



During 2013, the Company recorded net charge-offs of $348,067 as
compared to net charge-offs of $24,040 in 2012. The variance between 2013 and 2012 can be attributed to an unexpected large recovery
in 2012. Although uncertainty in the economic outlook still exists, management believes the loss exposure in the portfolio is identified,
reserved against and closely monitored to ensure that changes are promptly addressed in the analysis of reserve adequacy.



Impaired loans at December 31, 2013 totaled
$7,136,907, a decrease of 37.93% over total impaired loans of $11,498,279 at December 31, 2012. Our impaired loans included non-accrual
loans of $1,575,441 and four restructured loans (TDR) totaling $1,196,341 at December 31, 2013. Impaired loans include non-accrual
loans of $3,993,816 and five restructured loans (TDR) totaling $1,618,278 at December 31, 2012. At December 31, 2012 there was
one credit totaling $2,623,556 which was entirely secured by a first mortgage. This loan paid off in the second quarter of 2013.
There were no loans over 90 days past due still accruing interest at December 31, 2013 or December 31, 2012.



Non-interest income increased $150,954 or 6.44%
to $2,496,417 in 2013. As previously stated, our mortgage banking income increased $143,782 or 10.44% due to obtaining better margins
(discounts earned and SRP) selling loans on the secondary market. Our software’s pricing engine allowed a side by side comparison
allowing us to execute the most profit on each loan. Although the economy in our market area is improving, we began to see a decrease
in loan originations in the third and fourth quarter of 2013. This decrease comes as a result of increasing interest rates and
the increase in home prices. We saw a clear shift from refinancing to home purchases in 2013. This trend is likely to continue
into 2014.

Our non-interest expense decreased $13,775
from $8,731,625 in 2012 to $8,717,850 in 2013. Salaries and employee benefits increased $145,802 in 2013 as a result of annual
merit increases and the addition of a mortgage loan originator and a Risk Management Officer. In addition, health insurance increased
$50,693 and workers compensation insurance expense increased $19,111. The increase in health insurance expense can be attributed
to the addition of two employees and a rate increase. Workers compensation increased as a result of an audit performed by the insurance
company on the Company’s 2012 insurance coverage. As previously noted above, we saw a decrease in other operating expenses of $209,412.
This decrease was primarily due to the decrease in courier service fees, data processing fees, and professional audit and legal
fees. We offer a courier service to pick up our business customers’ deposits. We also offer remote deposit capture to our business
customers. Many of our business customers opted to use remote deposit capture which allowed us to cut our courier expense by 36%
from $159,943 for the year ended December 31, 2012 to $101,338 in 2013. Data processing fees decreased $115,731 as the result of
the renegotiation of our contract. Professional audit and legal fees were reduced by $45,500 and $55,823, respectively. We lowered
our audit fees by hiring a Risk Management Officer who conducts our Sarbanes Oxley Act testing in-house. Legal fees were reduced
as the result of fewer cases brought against the Company requiring legal review. In 2012 we had two cases brought against the Company,
one of which was heard by the South Carolina Supreme Court, resulting in higher legal fees in 2012 as compared to 2013. Offsetting
the decreases in expenses described above was an increase of $73,979 in sundry losses from $6,102 in 2012 to $80,081 in 2013. This
loss resulted from fraud by persons outside the Company. We believe that our internal controls have been designed to minimize losses;
however, there are no assurances that a loss will not occur.

at December 31, 2013 from $1,604,250 at December 31, 2012. The Company’s effective tax rate was approximately 30.98% for the year
ended December 31, 2013 compared to 30.44% for the year ended December 31, 2012.



COMPARISON OF THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2012 TO DECEMBER 31, 2011



Net income increased $477,510 or 14.97% to
$3,666,828 or basic and diluted earnings per share of $.82 and $.82, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2012 from $3,189,318
or basic and diluted earnings per share of $.72 and $.72, respectively for the year ended December 31, 2011. This increase was
primarily due to an increase in mortgage banking income and a decrease in the cost of funds. Historically low interest rates helped
to increase the volume of mortgage loan originations. In addition, our market area of Berkeley, Charleston and Dorchester counties
saw an increase in home sales during the year ended December 31, 2012. Mortgage loan originations increased $48,649,766 or 81.02%
to $108,699,648 for the year ended December 31, 2012, from $60,049,882 for the year ended December 31, 2011.



The cost of funds decreased as a result of
lower rates paid on interest bearing deposits coupled with a decrease in interest bearing deposits and an increase in non-interest
bearing deposits. Interest bearing deposits decreased $23,283,733 or 10.08% to $207,626,168 for the year ended December 31, 2012.
The cost associated with these deposits decreased $322,409 or 41.44% to $455,619 for the year ended December 31, 2012. On February
7, 2012, we were notified by a large depositor that it would begin to withdraw its deposits by the end of that month. This depositor
was a company that was started in Charleston, SC and was purchased by an out-of-state company in 2007. The deposits remained with
the Bank with the understanding that these deposits would eventually be moved. The balance of the deposits, all of which were interest
bearing, at December 31, 2011 was $32,462,427 with $546,000 remaining at December 31, 2012. Non-interest bearing accounts increased
$13,230,061 or 18.84% to $83,447,675 for the year ended December 31, 2012. We had a strong increase in the number of small business
accounts, due to our business development efforts. The Dodd-Frank Act included a provision which required the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation (FDIC) to provide unlimited federal deposit insurance for non-interest bearing demand accounts. This provision expired
on December 31, 2012. We have not experienced any impact from the expiration of this provision.



Net interest income increased $507,664 or 4.42%
to $12,007,240 for the year ended December 31, 2012 from $11,499,576 for the year ended December 31, 2011. Net interest income
is a primary source of revenue. Net interest income is the difference between income earned on assets and interest paid on deposits
and borrowings used to support such assets. Net interest income is determined by the rates earned on interest earning assets and
the rates paid on interest bearing liabilities, the relative amounts of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities,
and the degree of mismatch and maturity and repricing characteristics of its interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities.
The increase in net interest income was primarily due to an increase in interest and fees on loans and, as discussed above, a decrease
in the cost of funds.

We experienced a modest increase of $145,218
or 1.33% from interest and fees on loans, and $37,777 or 2.88% increase from interest and dividends on investment securities. Average
loans increased $7,819,484 to $220,780,471 for the year ended December 31, 2012. A large portion of this increase was primarily
due to an increase of $4,725,259 in average mortgage loans to be sold, from $3,164,168 for the year ended December 31, 2011 to
$7,889,427 for the year ended December 31, 2012. We had 480 mortgage originations totaling $108,699,648 for the year ended December
31, 2012 as compared to 281 mortgage originations totaling $60,049,882 for the year ended December 31, 2011. As stated previously,
the increase in mortgage originations resulted from the historically low interest rates and an increase in home sales in our market
area.



Average investments increased $5,693,516 to
$57,982,652 for the year ended December 31, 2012. The yield on these investments decreased from 2.50% for the year ended December
31, 2011 to 2.32% for the year ended December 31, 2012. During 2011, we had one US Treasury Note, two Federal Agency Securities
and two Municipal Securities mature that were yielding between 5.069% and 3.396%. The funds from these maturities were re-invested
at significantly lower interest rates.



We maintain an allowance for loan losses (the
“allowance”) which is management’s best estimate of probable losses inherent in the outstanding loan portfolio. The allowance
is decreased by actual loan charge-offs, net of recoveries, and is increased as necessary by charges to current period operating
results through the provision for loan losses. The allowance is based on management’s continuing review and credit risk evaluation
of the losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Management takes into consideration many factors such as the balance of impaired
loans, the quality, mix and size of our overall loan portfolio, economic conditions that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay,
the amount and quality of collateral securing the loans, our historical loan loss experience, and a review of specific problem
loans. Based on management’s evaluation, we recorded a provision for loan losses of $350,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012,
a decrease of 27.08% or $130,000 from $480,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011.



The allowance consists of an allocated and
unallocated allowance. The allocated portion is determined by types and ratings of loans within the portfolio. The unallocated
portion of the allowance is established for losses that exist in the remainder of the portfolio and compensates for uncertainty
in estimating the loan losses. We had $376,067 in unallocated reserves at December 31, 2012 as compared to $558,267 at December
31, 2011. Management believes this amount is appropriate and properly supported through the environmental factors of its allowance
for loan losses.



There can be no assurance that charge-offs
of loans in future periods will not exceed the allowance for loan losses as estimated at any point in time or that provisions for
loan losses will not be significant to a particular accounting period. In addition the allowance is subject to examination and
testing for adequacy by regulatory agencies. Such regulatory agencies could require management to adjust the allowance based on
information available to them at the time of their examination.



During 2012, we recorded net charge-offs of
$24,040 as compared to net charge-offs of $311,703 in 2011. Although uncertainty in the economic outlook still exists, management
believes the loss exposure in the portfolio is identified, reserved against and closely monitored to ensure that changes are promptly
addressed in the analysis of reserve adequacy.



Impaired loans at December 31, 2012 totaled
$11,498,279, an increase of 55.01% over total impaired loans of $7,417,892 at December 31, 2011. Impaired loans include non-accrual
loans of $3,993,816 and five restructured loans (TDR) totaling $1,618,278 at December 31, 2012. In addition, there was one credit
totaling $2,623,556 which was entirely secured by a first mortgage, improving our existing second real estate mortgage secured
position and including the existing unsecured debt. Impaired loans at December 31, 2011 included non-accrual loans of $923,671
and two restructured loans totaling $491,153. There were no loans over 90 days past due still accruing interest at December 31,
2012 and one loan over 90 days past due that was still accruing interest at December 31, 2011. Comparing the year ended December
31, 2012 and the year ended December 31, 2011, the increase in non-accrual loans was primarily due to the addition of two very
well secured first real estate mortgage loans to one borrower which totaled $1,822,592, one secured real estate mortgage totaling
$508,651, and three past due loans (greater than 90 days) totaling $743,154.

Non-interest income increased $567,506 or 31.92%
to $2,345,463 for the year ended December 31, 2012 from $1,777,957 for the year ended December 31, 2011. This increase was primarily
due to an increase in mortgage banking income offset by a decrease in gains on securities. Mortgage banking income increased $703,183
or 104.22% to $1,377,888 for the year ended December 31, 2012 from $674,705 for the year ended December 31, 2011. Mortgage loan
originations increased 81.02% or $48,649,766 for the year ended December 31, 2012. This increase was primarily due to customers
taking advantage of the historically low interest rates to refinance and purchase homes. This increase was offset by a decrease
of $124,672 in gains realized on the sale of investment securities in 2011. There were no sales of investment securities during
the year ended December 31, 2012.



Non-interest expense increased $471,359 or
5.71% to $8,731,625 for the year ended December 31, 2012, from $8,260,266 for the year ended December 31, 2011. This increase was
primarily due to increases in salaries and employee benefits, professional legal fees, data processing fees and the Employee Stock
Ownership Plan (ESOP) contribution coupled with decreases in fees paid to the FDIC. Wages increased $302,641 or 6.38% from $4,742,772
for the year ended December 31, 2011 to $5,045,413 for the year ended December 31, 2012, as a result of annual merit increases
and the hiring of two additional mortgage lenders and an additional loan processor. In addition, at the recommendation of the Compensation
Committee, the Board of Directors approved a $10,000 bonus for Executive Officers for the year ending December 31, 2012. The Board
of Directors approved this bonus in appreciation for the outstanding performance of the Bank. The bonus was paid in December 2012.
The cost of providing insurance for employees also increased with the additional employees and a rate increase by our insurance
provider. The cost increased $73,721 from $365,646 for the year ended December 31, 2011 to $439,367 for the year ended December
31, 2012. Data processing fees increased $113,242 or 25.36% for the year ended December 31, 2012. This increase was primarily a
result of additional customers signing up for eCorp (online banking for businesses) and remote deposit capture. Our data processing
fees will continue to increase as additional customers sign up for these products. Professional legal fees increased $50,623 primarily
as the result of legal counsel provided on one case, discussed more fully in “Legal Proceedings”. The contribution to
the ESOP increased $45,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012 when compared to the same period in 2011. We also saw a decrease
in fees paid to the FDIC of $54,350 or 24.90% for the year ended December 31, 2012 from $218,315 for the year ended December 31,
2011, as the result of a decrease in the rate used to calculate the assessment.



Income tax expense increased 19.01% to $1,604,250
at December 31, 2012 from $1,347,949 at December 31, 2011. Our effective tax rate was approximately 30.44% for the year ended December
31, 2012 compared to 29.71% for the year ended December 31, 2011.



Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market
Risk



ASSET AND LIABILITY MANAGEMENT



Our assets and liabilities are managed to provide
a satisfactory and consistent level of earnings and to protect our institution from any disastrous financial consequences arising
from changes in interest rate risk. The responsibility of managing asset and liability procedures will be directed by the Asset
and Liability Committee (“ALCO”) with the ultimate responsibility resting with the Chief Executive Officer. At year-end
2013, total assets were $340,893,703 an increase of 4.76% from year end 2012; total deposits were $305,242,655, an increase of
4.87% from the end of the previous year.



At December 31, 2013, approximately 97.92%
of our assets were earning assets composed of U.S. Treasury, Government Sponsored Enterprises and Municipal Securities in the amount
of $94,648,221, interest bearing deposits in other banks in the amount of $16,080,721 and total loans including mortgage loans
held for sale in the amount of $223,059,647.



The yield on a majority of our earning assets
adjusts simultaneously with changes in the general level of interest rates. Some of the Company’s liabilities are issued with fixed
terms and can be repriced only at maturity.





18







MARKET RISK



Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse
changes in market prices and rates. Our risk is constituted primarily of interest rate risk in our lending and investing activities
as they relate to their funding by deposit and borrowing activities.



Our policy is to minimize interest rate risk
between interest bearing assets and liabilities at various maturities and to attempt to maintain an asset sensitive position over
a 6 month period. By adhering to this policy, management anticipates that our net interest margins will not be materially affected
unless there is an extraordinary precipitous drop in interest rates. The average net interest rate spread for 2013 decreased to
3.72% from 3.78% for 2012 and the average net interest margin for 2013 decreased to 3.79% from 3.86% for 2012. Management will
continue to monitor its asset sensitive position.



Since the rates on most of our interest bearing
liabilities can vary on a daily basis, management continues to maintain a loan portfolio priced predominately on a variable rate
basis. However, in an effort to protect future earnings in a declining rate environment, we offer certain fixed rates, interest
rate floors, and terms primarily associated with real estate transactions. We seek stable, long-term deposit relationships to fund
our loan portfolio. Furthermore, the Bank does not have any brokered deposits or internet deposits.



At December 31, 2013, the average maturity
of the investment portfolio was 4 years 2.64 months with an average yield of 2.20% compared to 4 years 1.94 months with an average
yield of 2.46% at December 31, 2012. Although there is greater market risk with maturity extension, management feels that our core
deposit base minimizes the need to sell securities, and the maturity extension of the investment portfolio improves the yield on
the portfolio.



We do not take foreign exchange or commodity
risks. In addition, we do not own mortgage-backed securities nor do we have any exposure to the sub-prime market or any other distressed
debt instruments.



The following table summarizes our interest
sensitivity position as of December 31, 2013:

LIQUIDITY



Historically, we have maintained our liquidity
at levels believed by management to be adequate to meet requirements of normal operations, potential deposit outflows and strong
loan demand and still allow for optimal investment of funds and return on assets.



The following table summarizes
future contractual obligations as of December 31, 2013:

We manage our assets and liabilities to ensure
that there is sufficient liquidity to enable management to fund deposit withdrawals, loan demand, capital expenditures, reserve
requirements, operating expenses, dividends and to manage daily operations on an ongoing basis. Funds are primarily provided by
the Bank through customer deposits, principal and interest payments on loans, mortgage loan sales, the sale or maturity of securities,
temporary investments and earnings.



Proper liquidity management is crucial to ensure
that we are able to take advantage of new business opportunities as well as meet the credit needs of our existing customers. Investment
securities are an important tool in our liquidity management. Securities classified as available for sale, which are not pledged,
may be sold in response to changes in interest rates and liquidity needs. All of the securities presently owned are classified
as Available for Sale. Net cash provided by operations and deposits from customers have been the primary sources of liquidity.
At December 31, 2013, we had unused short-term lines of credit totaling approximately $19 million (which can be withdrawn at the
lender’s option). Additional sources of funds available to us for additional liquidity needs include borrowing on a short-term
basis from the Federal Reserve System, increasing deposits by raising interest rates paid and selling mortgage loans held for sale.
In March 2012, we established a $6 million REPO Line with Raymond James (formerly Morgan Keegan). There have been no borrowings
under this agreement. We also established a Borrower-In-Custody arrangement with the Federal Reserve. This arrangement permits
us to retain possession of assets pledged as collateral to secure advances from the Federal Reserve Discount Window. At December
31, 2013 we could borrow up to $69 million. There have been no borrowings under this arrangement.

Average earning assets increased by $14,125,768
from 2012 to 2013. This increase was primarily due to a $5,486,600 increase in average loans and a $9,501,384 increase in average
available for sale securities. We saw an increase of $8 million in consumer real estate loans as the result of an improving economy.
Meanwhile, we were earning .25% on our funds deposited at the Federal Reserve. This low rate coupled with a rising yield curve
gave us reason to invest our excess cash in investment securities.

Our investment portfolio had a weighted average
yield of 2.20%, 2.46%, and 2.45% for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively.



At December 31, 2013 we had three US Treasury
Notes with an unrealized loss of $67,929, five Agency Notes with an unrealized loss of $311,062, and six Municipal Securities with
an unrealized loss of $125,754, compared to one Municipal Security with an unrealized loss of $3,592 at December 31, 2012 and three
Municipal Securities with an unrealized loss of $1,117 at December 31, 2011. The unrealized losses on these investments were caused
by interest rate increases. These investments are not considered other-than-temporarily impaired because we have the ability and
the intent to hold these investments until a market price recovery or maturity. In addition, the contractual terms of these investments
do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost of the investment.

The primary purpose of the investment portfolio
is to fund loan demand, to help manage fluctuations in deposits and liquidity, to satisfy pledging requirements and, at the same
time, to generate a favorable return on investment. In doing these things, our main objective is to adhere to sound investment
practices. To that end, all purchases and sales of investment securities are made through reputable securities dealers which have
been approved by the Board of Directors, who also review the entire investment portfolio at each regular monthly meeting. In addition,
management reports to the Board on a monthly basis any purchases, sales, calls, and maturities during the previous month. Furthermore,
a financial underwriting review of all municipal securities and their corresponding municipalities is conducted annually by Credit
Personnel and reviewed by management.



LOAN PORTFOLIO COMPOSITION



We focus our lending activities on small and
middle market businesses, professionals and individuals in our geographic markets. At December 31, 2013, our outstanding loans
(plus deferred loan fees of $66,289) totaled $218,320,304, which equaled 71.52% of total deposits and 64.03% of total assets. Substantially
all loans were to borrowers located in our market area of Charleston, Dorchester and Berkeley counties of South Carolina.



The quality of our loan portfolio is contingent
upon our risk selection and underwriting practices. Every credit with over $100,000 in exposure is summarized by our Credit Department
and reviewed by the Loan Committee on a monthly basis. The Board of Directors review credits over $500,000 monthly with annual
credit analyses conducted on these borrowers upon the receipt of updated financial information. Prior to any extension of credit,
every loan request goes through sound credit underwriting. The Credit Department conducts detailed cash flow analysis on each proposal
using the most current financial information. Relevant trends and ratios are evaluated.



The following is a schedule of our loan portfolio,
excluding mortgage loans held for sale and deferred loan fees, as of December 31, 2013, as compared to the prior four years:



|                                                                           |  | Book Value (in 000’s) |

We had no foreign loans or loans to fund leveraged
buyouts (LBO’s) at any time during 2009 thru 2013.



The following table presents the contractual
terms to maturity for loans outstanding at December 31, 2013. Demand loans, loans having no stated schedule of repayment or stated
maturity, and overdrafts are reported as due in one year or less. The table does not include an estimate of prepayments, which
can significantly affect the average life of loans and may cause our actual principal experience to differ from that shown.

IMPAIRED LOANS



A loan is impaired when, based on current information
and events, it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement
and the following criteria are met:



| | 1) | Any loan on non-accrual
| | -- | -----------------------

| | 2) | Any loan that is a troubled debt restructuring
| | -- | ----------------------------------------------

| | 3) | Any loan over 60 days past due
| | -- | ------------------------------

| | 4) | Any loan rated sub-standard, doubtful, or loss
| | -- | ----------------------------------------------

| | 5) | Excessive principal extensions are executed
| | -- | -------------------------------------------

| | 6) | If we are provided information that indicates we will not collect
all principal and interest as scheduled
| | -- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Impairment loss is measured by:



| | a. | The present value of the future cash flow discounted at the loan’s
effective interest rate, or, alternatively,
| | -- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | b. | The fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.
| | -- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------



All loans placed on non-accrual status are
classified as impaired. However, not all impaired loans are on non-accrual status nor do they all represent a loss.



The following is a schedule of our impaired
loans and non-accrual loans. Non-accrual loans are included in impaired loans.



|Impaired Loans  |

TROUBLED DEBT RESTRUCTURING



According to GAAP, we are required to account
for certain loan modifications or restructuring as a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”), when appropriate. In general,
the modification or restructuring of a debt is considered a TDR if we, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial
difficulties, grant a concession to the borrower that we would not otherwise consider. Three factors must always be present:



1. An existing credit must formally be renewed, extended,
or modified.

2. The borrower is experiencing financial difficulties.

3. We grant a concession that we would not otherwise consider.



We had four TDR’s in the amount of $1,196,341
at December 31, 2013, five TDR’s in the amount of $1,618,278 at December 31, 2012, two TDR’s in the amount of $491,153 at December
31, 2011, one TDR loan at December 31, 2010 of $153,015, and no TDR’s at December 31, 2009.



We do not know of any potential problem loans
which will not meet their contractual obligations that are not otherwise discussed herein.



OTHER REAL ESTATE OWNED



Real estate acquired as a result of foreclosure
or by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is classified as other real estate owned (“OREO”) until it is sold. When the property
is acquired, it is recorded at the lesser of fair value of the property less estimated selling costs or the total loan balance.
It is in our best interest to determine the fair market value by engaging an independent appraisal within 30 days of property being
acquired into OREO. We can’t hold the property for a period of more than five years unless we have prior approval from the State
Board of Financial Institutions. The Bank will pay property taxes along with insurance expenses until the property is sold. Other
real estate owned at December 31, 2010 was $659,492. We sold our OREO during the year ended December 31, 2011 for a loss of $63,273.
There has been no OREO recorded since 2011.



ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES



The allowance for loan losses represents management’s
estimate of probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses (the “allowance”)
is reviewed monthly by the Loan Committee and on a quarterly basis by the Board of Directors. For purposes of this analysis, adequacy
is defined as a level sufficient to absorb estimated losses in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date presented. The methodology
employed for this analysis has had various modifications over the years to better reflect the economic environment and to implement
regulatory guidance. This allowance is reviewed on a monthly basis by Credit Personnel (who have no lending authority nor complete
the allowance). In addition, the allowance is validated on a periodic basis by the Company’s Risk Manager. The revised methodology
is based on a Reserve Model that is comprised of the three components listed below:



| | 1) | Specific Reserve analysis for impaired loans based on Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB) ASC 310-10, “Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan.”
| | -- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | 2) | General reserve analysis applying historical loss rates based on
FASB ASC 450-20, “Loss Contingencies.”
| | -- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | 3) | Qualitative or environmental factors.
| | -- | -------------------------------------



Loans are reviewed for
impairment on a quarterly basis if any of the following criteria are met:



| | 1) | Any loan on non-accrual
| | -- | -----------------------

| | 2) | Any loan that is a troubled debt restructuring
| | -- | ----------------------------------------------

| | 3) | Any loan over 60 days past due
| | -- | ------------------------------

| | 4) | Any loan rated sub-standard, doubtful, or loss
| | -- | ----------------------------------------------

| | 5) | Excessive principal extensions are executed
| | -- | -------------------------------------------

| | 6) | If we provided information that indicates we will not collect all
principal and interest as scheduled
| | -- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



25







The aforementioned methodology applies to both
secured and unsecured loans, yet it does not apply to large groups of smaller balance loans that are collectively evaluated. Impairment
is measured by the present value of the future cash flow discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, or, alternatively the
fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. An impaired loan may not represent an expected loss.



A general reserve analysis is performed on
all loans, excluding impaired loans. This analysis includes a pool of loans that are reviewed for impairment but are not found
to be impaired. Historical losses are segregated into risk-similar groups and a loss ratio is determined for each group over a
three year period. The three year average loss ratio by type is then used to calculate the estimated loss based on the current
balance of each group. The three year historical loss percentage was .147% and .211% at December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012,
respectively.



Qualitative and environmental factors include
external risk factors that management believes are representative of our overall lending environment. Management believes that
the following factors create a more comprehensive system of controls in which we can monitor the quality of the loan portfolio.



| | 1) | Portfolio risk
| | -- | --------------

| | a) | Levels and trends in delinquencies and impaired loans
| | -- | -----------------------------------------------------

| | b) | Trends in volume and terms of loans
| | -- | -----------------------------------

| | c) | Over-margined real estate lending risk
| | -- | --------------------------------------

| | 2) | National and local economic trends and conditions
| | -- | -------------------------------------------------

| | 3) | Effects of changes in risk selection and underwriting practices
| | -- | ---------------------------------------------------------------

| | 4) | Experience, ability and depth of lending management staff
| | -- | ---------------------------------------------------------

| | 5) | Industry conditions
| | -- | -------------------

| | 6) | Effects of changes in credit concentrations
| | -- | -------------------------------------------

| | a) | Loan concentration
| | -- | ------------------

| | b) | Geographic concentration
| | -- | ------------------------

| | c) | Regulatory concentration
| | -- | ------------------------

| | 7) | Loan and credit administration risk
| | -- | -----------------------------------

| | a) | Collateral documentation
| | -- | ------------------------

| | b) | Insurance Risk
| | -- | --------------

| | c) | Maintenance of financial information risk
| | -- | -----------------------------------------



The sum of each component’s analysis results
represents the “estimated loss” within our total portfolio.



Portfolio risk includes the levels and trends
in delinquencies, impaired loans and changes in the loan rating matrix, trends in volume and terms of loans and overmargined real
estate lending. Management is satisfied with the stability of the past due and non-performing loans and believes there has been
no decline in the quality of the loan portfolio due to any trend in delinquent or adversely classified loans. Sizable unsecured
principal balances on a non-amortizing basis are monitored. Although the vast majority of our real estate loans are underwritten
on a cash flow basis, the secondary source of repayment is typically tied to our ability to realize on the collateral. We closely
monitor loan to value ratios. The maximum collateral advance rate is 80% on all real estate transactions, with the exception of
raw land at 65% and land development at 70%.



Occasionally, we extend credit beyond our normal
collateral advance margins in real estate lending. Although infrequent, the aggregate of these loans represent a notable part of
our portfolio. Accordingly, these loans are monitored and the balances reported to the Board every quarter. An excessive level
of this practice (as a percentage of capital) could result in additional regulatory scrutiny, competitive disadvantages and potential
losses if forced to convert the collateral. The consideration of overmargined real estate loans directly relates to the capacity
of the borrower to repay. Management often requests additional collateral to bring the loan to value ratio within the policy guidelines
and also requires a strong secondary source of repayment in addition to the primary source of repayment.





26







Although significantly under the threshold
of 100% of capital (currently approximately $35 million), our list and number of overmargined real estate loans currently totals
approximately $20,415,979 or approximately 9.15% of our loan portfolio at December 31, 2013 compared to $15,287,601 or approximately
6.49% of the loan portfolio at December 31, 2012. This increase was primarily due to the reappraisal of collateral supporting twelve
loans at the time of their renewal. While overmargined, these loans are performing as agreed.



A credit rating matrix is used to rate all
extensions of credit and to provide a more specified picture of the risk each loan poses to the quality of the loan portfolio.
There are eight possible ratings used to determine the quality of each loan based on nine different qualifying characteristics:
cash flow, collateral quality, guarantor strength, financial condition, management quality, operating performance, the relevancy
of the financial statements, historical loan performance, and the borrower’s leverage position. The matrix is designed to meet
management’s standards and expectations of loan quality. One hundred percent of our loans are graded.



National and local economic trends and conditions
are constantly changing and result in both positive and negative impact on borrowers. Most macroeconomic conditions are not controllable
by us and are incorporated into the qualitative risk factors. Natural and environmental disasters, wars and the recent collapse
of the subprime lending market as well as problems in the traditional mortgage market are a few of the trends and conditions that
are currently affecting the national and local economies. Changes in the national and local economy have impacted borrowers’ ability,
in many cases, to repay loans in a timely manner. On occasion, a loan’s primary source of repayment (i.e., personal income, cash
flow, or lease income) may be eroded as a result of unemployment, lack of revenues, or the inability of a tenant to make rent payments.



The quality of our loan portfolio is contingent
upon our risk selection and underwriting practices. Every credit with over $100,000 in exposure is summarized by our Credit Department
and reviewed by the Loan Committee on a monthly basis. The Board of Directors reviews credits over $500,000 monthly with annual
credit analyses conducted on these borrower upon the receipt of updated financial information. Prior to any extension of credit,
every significant commercial loan goes through sound credit underwriting. The Credit Department conducts a detailed cash flow on
each proposal using the most current financial information. Relevant trends and ratios are evaluated.



We have over 350 years of lending management
experience among twelve members of our lending staff. In addition to the lending staff we have an Advisory Board for each office
comprised of business and community leaders from the specific office market area. An additional Advisory Board was created during
the year ended December 31, 2012, to support our business efforts in the North Charleston area of South Carolina. The Bank recently
announced its intention to open an office in North Charleston, South Carolina on Highway 78 and Ingleside Boulevard, as noted previously,
we have signed a lease with anticipated opening in 2015. Management meets with these advisory boards quarterly to discuss the trends
and conditions in each respective market. Management is aware of the many challenges currently facing the banking industry. As
other banks look to increase earnings in the short term, we will continue to emphasize the need to maintain safe and sound lending
practices and core deposit growth.



There continues be an influx of new banks in
our geographic area. This increase has decreased the local industry’s overall margins as a result of pricing competition. Management
believes that our borrowing base is well established and therefore unsound price competition is not necessary.



The risks associated with the effects of changes
in credit concentration include loan concentration, geographic concentration and regulatory concentration.



As of December 31, 2013, there were only four
Standard Industrial Code groups that comprised more than 2% of our total outstanding loans. The four groups are activities related
to real estate, offices and clinics of doctors, real estate agents and managers, and legal services.



We are located along the coast and on an earthquake
fault, increasing the chances that a natural disaster may impact us and our borrowers. We have a Disaster Recovery Plan in place;
however, the amount of time it would take for our customers to return to normal operations is unknown.





27









Loan and credit administration risk includes
collateral documentation, insurance risk and maintaining financial information risk.



The majority of our loan portfolio is collateralized
with a variety of our borrowers’ assets. The execution and monitoring of the documentation to properly secure the loan is the responsibility
of our lenders and Loan Department. We require insurance coverage naming us as the mortgagee or loss payee. Although insurance
risk is also considered collateral documentation risk, the actual coverage, amounts of coverage and increased deductibles are important
to management. Recent legislation passed by Congress address the need for reform to the National Flood Insurance Program. This
legislation, known as the Biggert Waters Flood Insurance Reform and Modernization Act of 2012, has resulted in significant unintended
consequences causing dramatic increases in the cost of flood insurance coverage and its potential unaffordability. Given the recent
actions, the ultimate consequences are not completely known; however, efforts are being made to revise the current law to bring
in line more appropriate changes.Management will continue to monitor the effects of the legislation
and its ultimate impact on the Bank.



Risk includes a function of time during which
the borrower’s financial condition may change; therefore, keeping financial information up to date is important to the Company.
Our policy requires all new loans, regardless of the customer’s history with us, to have updated financial information. In addition,
we monitor appraisals closely as real estate values continue to fluctuate.



Based on our allowance for loan loss model,
we recorded a provision for loan loss of $207,500 for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to $350,000 for the year ended
December 31, 2012. At December 31, 2013 the three-year average loss ratios were: .141% Commercial, .635% Consumer, .118% 1-4 Residential,
..000% Real Estate Construction and .142% Real Estate Mortgage. The three-year historical loss ratio used at December 31, 2013 was
..147% compared to .211% at December 31, 2012.



During the year ended December 31, 2013 charge-offs
of $391,401 and recoveries of $43,334 were recorded to the allowance for loan losses, resulting in an allowance for loan losses
of $3,292,277 or 1.48% of total loans at December 31, 2013, compared to charge-offs of $172,288 and recoveries of $148,248 resulting
in an allowance for loan losses of $3,432,844 or 1.46% of total loans at December 31, 2012.



We had impaired loans totaling $7,136,907 as
of December 31, 2013 compared to $11,498,279 at December 31, 2012. The impaired loans include non-accrual loans with balances at
December 31, 2013, and 2012, of $1,575,440 and $3,993,816, respectively. We had four restructured loans (“TDR”) at December
31, 2013 and five restructured loans at December 31, 2012. According to GAAP, we are required to account for certain loan modifications
or restructuring as a troubled debt restructuring, when appropriate. In general, the modification or restructuring of a debt is
considered a TDR if the Company, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession
to the borrower that we would not otherwise consider. At December 31, 2013 the four restructured loans had an aggregate balance
of $1,196,341 compared to the five restructured loans with an aggregate balance of $1,618,278 at December 31, 2012. Included in
the impaired loans at December 31, 2012, was one credit totaling $2,623,556 which paid off during the second quarter 2013. Management
does not know of any loans which will not meet their contractual obligations that are not otherwise discussed herein.



The accrual of interest is generally discontinued
on loans which become 90 days past due as to principal or interest. However, the accrual of interest on some loans may continue
even though they are 90 days past due if the loans are well secured or in the process of collection and management deems it appropriate.
If non-accrual loans decrease their past due status to less than 30 days for a period of six to nine months, they are reviewed
individually by management to determine if they should be returned to accrual status. There were no loans over 90 days past due
still accruing interest at December 31, 2013 or at December 31, 2012.



Net charge-offs for the year ended December
31, 2013, were $348,067 as compared to net charge-offs of $24,040 for the year ended December 31, 2012. Although uncertainty in
the economic outlook still exists, management believes loss exposure in the portfolio is identified, reserved against and closely
monitored to ensure that changes are promptly addressed in the analysis of reserve adequacy.





28







The following table represents the net charge-offs
by loan type.

We had $205,904, in unallocated reserves at
December 31, 2013 related to other inherent risk in the portfolio compared to unallocated reserves of $376,067 at December 31,
2012. Management believes this amount is appropriate and properly supported through the environmental factors of its allowance
for loan losses. Management believes the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2013, is adequate to cover estimated losses
in the loan portfolio; however, assessing the adequacy of the allowance is a process that requires considerable judgment. Management’s
judgments are based on numerous assumptions about current events which it believes to be reasonable, but which may or may not be
valid. Thus, there can be no assurance that loan losses in future periods will not exceed the current allowance amount or that
future increases in the allowance will not be required. No assurance can be given that management’s ongoing evaluation of the loan
portfolio in light of changing economic conditions and other relevant circumstances will not require significant future additions
to the allowance, thus adversely affecting the operating results of the Company.



The following tables present a breakdown of the allowance for loan
losses as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.



|                       |  | December 31, 2013      |           |  | December 31, 2012                  |

|                       |  | Allowance by loan type |           |  | Percentage of loans to total loans | 
|Commercial Loans       |  | $                      | 1,398,184 |  |                                    |

|Consumer real estate   |  |                        | 641,194   |  |                                    | 
|Consumer other         |  |                        | 80,214    |  |                                    | 
|Unallocated            |  |                        | 205,904   |  |                                    | 
|Total                  |  | $                      | 3,292,277 |  |                                    | 



The allowance is also subject to examination
testing by regulatory agencies, which may consider such factors as the methodology used to determine adequacy and the size of the
allowance relative to that of peer institutions, and other adequacy tests. In addition, such regulatory agencies could require
us to adjust our  allowance based on information available to them at the time of their examination.



The methodology used to determine the reserve
for unfunded lending commitments, which is included in other liabilities, is inherently similar to that used to determine the allowance
for loan losses described above adjusted for factors specific to binding commitments, including the probability of funding and
historical loss ratio. No provision was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2013 or the year ended December 31, 2012, resulting
in no change to the balance of $20,825.

Certificates of Deposit $100,000 and over increased
$11,612,601 or 28.39% for the year ended December 31, 2013, from $40,903,886 at December 31, 2012. This increase was not the result
of special promotions or advertising.



We fund growth through core deposits and do not rely on Brokered
Deposits or Internet Deposits as a source to do so.



SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS



At December 31, 2013, we had no outstanding
federal funds purchased with the option to borrow $19,000,000 on short term lines of credit. In March 2012, we established a $6
million REPO line with Raymond James (formerly Morgan Keegan). There have been no borrowings under this arrangement. We also established
a Borrower-In-Custody arrangement with the Federal Reserve as a secondary source of liquidity. This arrangement permits us to retain
possession of loans pledged as collateral to secure advances from the Federal Reserve Discount Window. Under this agreement we
may borrow up to $69 million. There have been no borrowings under this arrangement.



OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS



In the normal course of operations, we engage
in a variety of financial transactions that, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, are not recorded in the
financial statements, or are recorded in amounts that differ from the notional amounts. These transactions involve, to varying
degrees, elements of credit, interest rate, and liquidity risk. Such transactions are used by us for general corporate purposes
or for customer needs. Corporate purpose transactions are used to help manage credit, interest rate and liquidity risk or to optimize
capital. Customer transactions are used to manage customer requests for funding.



Our off-balance sheet arrangements consist
principally of commitments to extend credit described below. We estimate probable losses related to binding unfunded lending commitments
and record a reserve for unfunded lending commitments in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. At December 31, 2013
and 2012 the balance of this reserve was $20,825. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, we had no interests in non-consolidated special
purpose entities.



Commitments to extend credit are agreements
to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have
fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected
to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The amount
of collateral obtained if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit is based on management’s credit evaluation of
the borrower. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, negotiable instruments, inventory, property, plant and
equipment, and real estate. Commitments to extend credit, including unused lines of credit, amounted to $64,830,461 and $51,144,731
at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.



30









Standby letters of credit represent our obligation
to a third party contingent upon the failure of our customer to perform under the terms of an underlying contract with the third
party or obligates us to guarantee or stand as surety for the benefit of the third party. The underlying contract may entail either
financial or nonfinancial obligations and may involve such things as the shipment of goods, performance of a contract, or repayment
of an obligation. Under the terms of a standby letter, generally drafts will be drawn only when the underlying event fails to occur
as intended. We can seek recovery of the amounts paid from the borrower. The majority of these standby letters of credit are unsecured.
Commitments under standby letters of credit are usually for one year or less. The maximum potential amount of undiscounted future
payments related to standby letters of credit at December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $557,593 and $749,712, respectively.



We originate certain fixed rate residential
loans and commit these loans for sale. The commitments to originate fixed rate residential loans and the sales commitments are
freestanding derivative instruments. We had forward sales commitments, totaling $4,739,343 at December 31, 2013, to sell loans
held for sale of $4,739,343. At December 31, 2012, we had forward sales commitments of $18,479,878. The fair value of these commitments
was not significant at December 31, 2013 or 2012. We had no embedded derivative instruments requiring separate accounting treatment.



Once we sell certain fixed rate residential
loans, the loans are no longer reportable on our balance sheet. With most of these sales, we have an obligation to repurchase the
loan in the event of a default of principal or interest on the loan. This recourse period ranges from three to six months with
unlimited recourse as a result of fraud. The unpaid principal balance of loans sold with recourse was $16,323,000 at December 31,
2013 and $36,105,000 at December 31, 2012. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 there were no loans repurchased.



EFFECT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES



The consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles which require the measurement of financial position and
results of operations in terms of historical dollars without consideration of changes in the relative purchasing power over time
due to inflation.



Unlike most other industries, the assets and
liabilities of financial institutions such as the Company are primarily monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates generally
have a more significant impact on our performance than do the effects of general levels of inflation and changes in prices. In
addition, interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or in the same magnitude as the prices of goods and services.
We strive to manage the relationship between interest-sensitive assets and liabilities in order to protect against wide interest
rate fluctuations, including those resulting from inflation.



CAPITAL RESOURCES



Our capital needs have been met to date through
the $10,600,000 in capital raised in our initial offering, the retention of earnings less dividends paid and the exercise of stock
options for a total shareholders’ equity at December 31, 2013, of $34,739,143. The rate of asset growth since our inception has
not negatively impacted this capital base. The current risk-based capital guidelines for financial institutions are designed to
highlight differences in risk profiles among financial institutions and to account for off-balance sheet risk. The current guidelines
established require a minimum risk-based capital ratio of 8% for bank holding companies and banks. The risk-based capital ratio
at December 31, 2013 for the Bank was 14.57% and 13.64% at December 31, 2012. Our management does not know of any trends, events
or uncertainties that may result in our capital resources materially increasing or decreasing.



On June 23, 2011 the Board of Directors voted
to file a shelf registration (Form S-3) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). This shelf registration
statement on Form S-3 provides for the offer and sale from time to time over a three year period, in one or more public offerings,
up to $10 million in common stock or debt securities. Specific terms and prices will be determined at the time of each offering
under a separate prospectus supplement, which will be filed with the SEC at the time of the offering. The registration statement
was filed with the SEC on June 23, 2011. The filing of the shelf registration does not require us to issue securities. Although
we have no current commitments to sell additional stock or securities, the shelf registration will provide us with a source of
additional capital for acquisitions, capital expenditures, and repayment of indebtedness we may incur in the future, working capital
and other general corporate purposes.





31









The shelf registration will expire in June
2014. As of the date of this filing, the Board of Directors has not determined whether another Form S-3 will be filed when the
shelf registration expires.



We are subject to various regulatory capital
requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory
– and possibly additional discretionary – actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a material effect on
the financial statements. Under current capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action,
we must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of our assets, liabilities and certain off-balance
sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Our capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative
judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.



Current quantitative measures established by
regulation to ensure capital adequacy require that we maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted
assets and to average assets. Management believes, as of December 31, 2013, that the Company and the Bank meet all capital adequacy
requirements to which they are subject.



At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company
and Bank are categorized as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized
as “well capitalized” the Company and the Bank must maintain minimum total risk based, Tier 1 risk based and Tier 1 leverage
ratios of 10%, 6% and 5%, respectively, and to be categorized as “adequately capitalized,” the Company and the Bank must
maintain minimum total risk based, Tier 1 risk based and Tier 1 leverage ratios of 8%, 4% and 4%, respectively. There are no current
conditions or events that management believes would change the Company’s or the Bank’s category.



On July 2, 2013, the Federal Reserve Board
approved the final rules implementing the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision’s (“BCBS”) capital guidelines for US
banks. Under the final rules, minimum requirements will increase our quantity and quality of the capital. The rules include a new
common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 4.5% and a common equity Tier 1 capital conservation buffer of 2.5%
of risk-weighted assets. The final rule also raises the minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets from 4% to 6% and
requires a minimum leverage ratio of 4%. The final rule also implements strict eligibility criteria for regulatory capital instruments
and improves the methodology for calculating risk-weighted assets to enhance risk sensitivity.



On July 9, 2013 the FDIC also approved, as
an interim final rule, the regulatory capital requirements for US banks, following the actions of the Federal Reserve Bank. The
FDIC’s rule is identical in substance to the final rules issued by the Federal Reserve Bank.



The phase-in-period for the final rules will
begin on January 1, 2015, with full compliance with all of the final rule requirements phased in over a multi-year schedule. Management
believes that as of December 31, 2013, the Company and the Bank would remain “well capitalized” under the new rules.

Statements” for the Company’s and the Bank’s various capital ratios at December 31, 2013.

Report of Independent
Registered Public Accounting Firm



The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Bank of South Carolina Corporation and Subsidiary



Charleston,
South Carolina
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Bank of South Carolina Corporation and Subsidiary (the “Company”)
as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, shareholders' equity,
and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013. These consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements
based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control
over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing
audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness
of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Bank of South Carolina Corporation and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations
and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles.

| | 1. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
| | -- | ------------------------------------------



The following is a summary of the
more significant accounting policies used in preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements.



Accounting Estimates and
Assumptions:

The preparation of the financial
statements are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which require
management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates and
assumptions. Material estimates generally susceptible to significant change are related to the determination of the allowance for
loan losses, impaired loans, other real estate owned, asset prepayment rates and other-than-temporary impairment of investment
securities.



We are not dependent on any single
customer or limited number of customers, the loss of which would have a material adverse effect. No material portion of our business
is seasonal.



Principles of Consolidation:
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Bank of South Carolina Corporation (the “Company”)
and its wholly-owned subsidiary, The Bank of South Carolina (the “Bank”). In consolidation, all significant intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated.



References to “we”, “us”,
“our”, “the Bank”, or “the Company” refer to the parent and its subsidiary that are consolidated
for financial purposes.



Cash and Cash Equivalents:
Cash and cash equivalents include cash and noninterest-bearing deposits, and interest-bearing deposits. All amounts are readily
convertible to cash and have maturities of less than 90 days.



Investment Securities:
We classify investments into three categories as follows: (1) Held to Maturity - debt securities that we have the positive intent
and ability to hold to maturity, which are reported at amortized cost, adjusted for the amortization of any related premiums or
the accretion of any related discounts into interest income using a methodology which approximates a level yield of interest over
the estimated remaining period until maturity, (2) Trading - debt and equity securities that are bought and held principally for
the purpose of selling them in the near term, which are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings,
and (3) Available for Sale - debt and equity securities that may be sold under certain conditions, which are reported at fair value,
with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of shareholders’ equity, net of income
taxes. Unrealized losses on securities due to fluctuations in fair value are recognized when it is determined that an other than
temporary decline in value has occurred. Realized gains or losses on the sale of investments are recognized on a specific identification,
trade date basis. All securities were classified as available for sale for 2013 and 2012. We do not have any mortgage-backed securities
nor have we ever invested in mortgage-backed securities.



Mortgage Loans to be Sold:
We originate fixed and variable rate residential mortgage loans on a service release basis in the secondary market. Loans closed
but not yet settled with an investor are carried in our loans to be sold portfolio at the lower of cost or estimated market value
in the aggregate. These loans have been originated in our name and have closed. Virtually all of these loans have commitments to
be purchased by investors and the majority of these loans are locked in by price with the investors on the same day or shortly
thereafter that the loan was locked in with our customers. Therefore, these loans present very little market risk. We usually deliver
to, and receive funding from, the investor within 30 to 60 days. As a result of the short-term nature of these contracts, the fair
value of the mortgage loans to be sold in most cases is the same as the value of the loan amount at its origination.



The commitments to sell these loans
to the investor are considered derivative contracts and are sold to investors on a “best efforts” basis. We are not obligated
to deliver a loan or pay a penalty if a loan is not delivered to the investor.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



Non-refundable fees and direct loan
origination costs related to residential mortgage loans to be sold are recognized in non-interest income (net) as earned or incurred.
Gains and losses on sales of residential mortgage loans (control over these assets has been surrendered) are recorded in the mortgage
banking component of non-interest income. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, we had approximately $4.7 million and $18.5 million in
mortgage loans to be sold, respectively.



Loans and Allowance for Loan
Losses: Loans are carried at principal amounts outstanding. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs,
are deferred and recognized as an adjustment to yield. Interest income on all loans is recorded on an accrual basis. The accrual
of interest and the amortization of net loan fees are generally discontinued on loans which 1) are maintained on a cash basis because
of deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower; 2) for which payment of full principal is not expected; or 3) upon
which principal or interest has been in default for a period of 90 days or more. The accrual of interest however, may continue
on these loans if they are well secured, in the process of collection, and management deems it appropriate. Non-accrual loans are
reviewed individually by management to determine if they should be returned to accrual status. We define past due loans based on
contractual payment and maturity dates.



We account for nonrefundable fees
and costs associated with originating or acquiring loans by requiring that loan origination fees be recognized over the life of
the related loan as an adjustment on the loan’s yield. Certain direct loan origination costs shall be recognized over the life
of the related loan as a reduction of the loan’s yield.



We account for impaired loans by requiring
that all loans for which it is estimated that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the terms of the loan agreement
be recorded at the loan’s fair value. Fair value may be determined based upon the present value of expected future cash flows discounted
at the loan’s effective interest rate, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.



Additional accounting guidance allows
us to use existing methods for recognizing interest income on an impaired loan. The guidance also requires additional disclosures
about how we estimate interest income related to our impaired loans.



The accrual of interest is generally
discontinued on loans, which become 90 days past due as to principal or interest. The accrual of interest on some loans, however,
may continue even though they are 90 days past due if the loans are well secured or in the process of collection and management
deems it appropriate. If non-accrual loans decrease their past due status to less than 30 days for a period of 6 to 9 months, they
are reviewed individually by management to determine if they should be returned to accrual status.



When the ultimate collectability of
an impaired loan’s principal is in doubt, wholly or partially, all cash receipts are applied to principal. Once the recorded principal
balance has been reduced to zero, future cash receipts are applied to interest income, to the extent that any interest has been
foregone. Further cash receipts are recorded as recoveries of any amounts previously charged off. When this doubt does not exist,
cash receipts are applied under the contractual terms of the loan agreement first to interest income and then to principal.



A loan is also considered impaired
if its terms are modified in a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”). For this type of impaired loan, cash receipts are
typically applied to principal and interest receivable in accordance with the terms of the restructured loan agreement. Interest
income is recognized on these loans using the accrual method of accounting, provided they are performing in accordance with their
restructured terms.



Management believes that the allowance
is adequate to absorb inherent losses in the loan portfolio; however, assessing the adequacy of the allowance is a process that
requires considerable judgment. Management’s judgments are based on numerous assumptions about current events which management
believes to be reasonable, but which may or may not be valid. Thus there can be no assurance that loan losses in future periods
will not exceed the current allowance amount or that future increases in the allowance will not be required. No assurance can be
given that management’s ongoing evaluation of the loan portfolio, in light of changing economic conditions and other relevant circumstances,
will not require significant future additions to the allowance, thus adversely affecting our operating results.



40

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



The allowance is also subject to examination
by regulatory agencies, which may consider such factors as the methodology used to determine adequacy and the size of the allowance
relative to that of peer institutions and other adequacy tests. In addition, such regulatory agencies could require us to adjust
our allowance based on information available to us at the time of our examination.



The methodology used to determine
the reserve for unfunded lending commitments, which is included in other liabilities, is inherently similar to that used to determine
the allowance for loan losses adjusted for factors specific to binding commitments, including the probability of funding and historical
loss ratio.



Concentration of Credit Risk:
Our primary market consists of the counties of Berkeley, Charleston and Dorchester, South Carolina. At December 31, 2013, the majority
of the total loan portfolio, as well as a substantial portion of the commercial and real estate loan portfolios, were to borrowers
within this region. No other areas of significant concentration of credit risk have been identified.



Premises, Equipment and Leasehold
Improvements and Depreciation: Buildings and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation, calculated on
the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the related assets - 40 years for buildings and 3 to 15 years for equipment.
Amortization of leasehold improvements is recorded using the straight-line method over the lesser of the estimated useful life
of the asset or the term of the lease. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operating expenses as incurred.



Other Real Estate Owned:
Other real estate owned is carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value. Fair value is based upon independent market prices,
appraised values of the collateral, or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral. We had no other real estate owned
at December 31, 2013 or December 31, 2012. Gains and losses on the sale of other real estate owned and subsequent write-downs from
periodic re-evaluation are charged to other operating income.



Income Taxes: We
account for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax
consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and
their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable
income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets
and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Net deferred tax
assets are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet.



Accounting standards require the
accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements. These standards also prescribe a
recognition threshold and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in an enterprise’s tax return. We believe
that we had no uncertain tax positions for the year ended December 31, 2013 or for the year ended December 31, 2012.



Stock-Based
Compensation: Stock options are periodically granted to employees at an exercise price not less than 100% of the fair market
value of the shares at the date of the grant. All employees are eligible to participate in this plan if the Executive Committee
of the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, determines that such person has contributed or can be expected to contribute
to the profits or growth of the Company or its subsidiary. Fair value is determined using an option-pricing model that takes into
account the stock price at the grant date, the exercise price, the expected life of the option, the volatility of the underlying
stock and its expected dividends, and the risk-free interest rate over the expected life of the option.



41







BANK OF SOUTH CAROLINA CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



Earnings Per Common Share:
Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average
number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents. Common stock equivalents consist of stock options and are computed
using the treasury stock method.



Comprehensive Income:
We apply accounting standards which establish guidance for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components
in a full set of general purpose financial statements. Comprehensive income consists of net income and net unrealized gains or
losses on securities.



Segment Information:
We report operating segments in accordance with accounting standards. Operating segments are components of an enterprise about
which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the Chief Financial Officer/Executive Vice President
in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. Accounting standards require that a public enterprise report a measure
of segment profit or loss, certain specific revenue and expense items, segment assets, information about the way that the operating
segments were determined and other items. The Company has one reporting segment, The Bank of South Carolina.



Derivative Instruments:
Accounting standards require that all derivative instruments be recorded in the statement of financial position at fair value.
The accounting for the gain or loss due to change in fair value of the derivative instrument depends on whether the derivative
instrument qualifies as a hedge. If the derivative does not qualify as a hedge, the gains or losses are reported in earnings when
they occur. However, if the derivative instrument qualifies as a hedge, the accounting varies based on the type of risk being hedged.



We had no embedded derivative instruments
requiring separate accounting treatment. We had freestanding derivative instruments consisting of fixed rate conforming loan commitments
as interest rate locks and commitments to sell fixed rate conforming loans on a best efforts basis. We do not currently engage
in hedging activities. Based on short term fair value of the mortgage loans held for sale (derivative contract), our derivative
instruments were immaterial as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.



Cash
Flows: Cash and cash equivalents include working cash funds, due from banks, interest bearing deposits in other banks,
items in process of collection and federal funds sold. To comply with Federal Reserve regulations, we are required to maintain
certain average cash reserve balances. Our daily reserve requirement in 2013 was satisfied by vault cash resulting in a zero reserve
requirement at the Federal Reserve. The daily average reserve requirement was approximately $700,000 for the reserve period ended
December 31, 2012.



Recent Accounting Pronouncements:
The following is a summary of recent authoritative pronouncements that could impact the accounting, reporting and/or disclosure
of financial information by the Company.



The Comprehensive Income topic of
the ASC was amended in June 2011. The amendment eliminates the option to present other comprehensive income as a part of the statement
of changes in stockholders’ equity and required consecutive presentation of the statement of net income and other comprehensive
income. The amendments were applicable to the Company on January 1, 2012 and have been applied retrospectively. In December 2011,
the topic was further amended to defer the effective date of presenting reclassification adjustments from other comprehensive income
to net income on the face of the financial statements while the FASB redeliberated the presentation requirements for the reclassification
adjustments. In February 2013, the FASB further amended the Comprehensive Income topic clarifying the conclusions from such redeliberations.
Specifically, the amendments do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in financial
statements. However, the amendments do require an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated
other comprehensive income by component. In addition, in certain circumstances an entity is required to present, either on the
face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other
comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income. The amendments became effective for the Company on a prospective
basis for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. These amendments did not have a material impact on our financial
statements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



On February 28, 2013, the FASB amended
the liabilities topic to address obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements. The guidance addresses recognition
of financial commitments arising from joint and several liability arrangements. Specifically, the amendments require recognition
of financial commitments arising from loans, contracts, and legal rulings if the Company can be held liable for the entire claim.
The amendments will be effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. We do not expect these
amendments to have a material effect on our financial statements.



On April 22, 2013, the FASB issued
guidance addressing application of the liquidation basis of accounting. The guidance is intended to clarify when an entity should
apply the liquidation basis of accounting. In addition, the guidance provides principles for recognition and measurement of assets
and liabilities and requirements for financial statements prepared using the liquidation basis of accounting. The amendments will
be effective for entities that determine liquidation is imminent during annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013,
and interim reporting periods therein and those requirements should be applied prospectively from the day that liquidation becomes
imminent. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect these amendments to have any effect on our financial statements.



On July 18, 2013, the FASB issued
guidance to eliminate the diversity in practice regarding presentation of unrecognized tax benefits in the statement of financial
position. Under the clarified guidance, an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, will be presented
in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset unless certain criteria are met. The requirements should be
applied prospectively to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date. Retrospective application is permitted.
The amendments will be effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. We do not expect these
amendments to have any effect on our financial statements.



In December 2013, the FASB amended
the Master Glossary of the FASB Codification to define “Public Business Entity” to minimize the inconsistency and complexity
of having multiple definitions of, or a diversity in practice as to what constitutes, a nonpublic entity and public entity within
U.S. GAAP. The amendment does not affect existing requirements, however will be used by the FASB, the Private Company Council (“PCC”),
and the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) in specifying the scope of future financial accounting and reporting guidance.
We do not expect this amendment to have any effect on our financial statements.



In January 2014, the FASB amended
the Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors subtopic of the Codification to address the reclassification of
consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate upon foreclosure. The amendments clarify the criteria for concluding
that an in substance repossession or foreclosure has occurred, and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession
of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan. The amendments also outline interim and annual disclosure
requirements. The amendments will be effective for the Company for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December
15, 2014. Companies are allowed to use either a modified retrospective transition method or a prospective transition method when
adopting this update. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect these amendments to have a material effect on our financial
statements.



Other accounting standards that have
been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material impact on our financial
position, results of operations or cash flows.

There were no securities sold during
the year ended December 31, 2013 or December 31, 2012.



Investment securities with an aggregate
amortized cost of $53,305,346 and estimated fair value of $55,121,652 at December 31, 2013, were pledged to secure deposits and
other balances, as required or permitted by law.



At December 31, 2013 we had three
US Treasury Notes with an unrealized loss of $67,929, five Agency Notes with an unrealized loss of $311,062, and six Municipal
Securities with an unrealized loss of $125,754, compared to one Municipal Security with an unrealized loss of $3,592 at December
31, 2012. The unrealized losses on investments were caused by interest rate increases. The contractual terms of these investments
do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost of the investment. Therefore, these investments
are not considered other-than-temporarily impaired. We have the ability to hold these investments until market price recovery or
maturity. Gross unrealized losses and the estimated fair value of the related securities, aggregated by investment category and
length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position, at December 31, 2013 and December
31, 2012 are as follows:

We had impaired loans totaling $7,136,907
as of December 31, 2013 compared to $11,498,279 at December 31, 2012. The impaired loans include non-accrual loans with balances
at December 31, 2013 and 2012 of $1,575,440 and $3,993,816, respectively. We had four restructured loans at December 31, 2013,
and five restructured loans at December 31, 2012. According to GAAP, we are required to account for certain loan modifications
or restructuring as a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”). In general, the modification or restructuring of a debt is
considered a TDR if we, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, grant a concession to the
borrower that we would not otherwise consider. At December 31, 2013 and 2012 troubled debt restructurings had an aggregate balance
of $1,196,341 and $1,618,278, respectively. At December 31, 2012 there was one credit totaling $2,623,556 which was entirely secured
by a first mortgage. This loan paid off in the second quarter of 2013.



The accrual of interest is generally
discontinued on loans which become 90 days past due as to principal or interest. The accrual of interest on some loans, however,
may continue even though they are 90 days past due if the loans are well secured, in the process of collection, and management
deems it appropriate. Non-accrual loans are reviewed individually by management to determine if they should be returned to accrual
status.



There were no loans over 90 days
past due and still accruing interest at December 31, 2013 or December 31, 2012.

We grant short to intermediate term
commercial and consumer loans to customers throughout our primary market area of Charleston, Berkeley and Dorchester counties of
South Carolina. Our primary market area is heavily dependent on tourism and medical services. Although we have a diversified loan
portfolio, a substantial portion of our debtors’ ability to honor their contracts is dependent upon the stability of the economic
environment in their primary market including the government, tourism and medical industries. The majority of the loan portfolio
is located in our immediate market area with a concentration in Real Estate Related, Offices and Clinics of Medical Doctors, Real
Estate Agents and Managers, and Legal services.

The following table sets forth the changes
in the allowance and an allocation of the allowance by loan category at December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012. The allocation
of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment,
should be charged-off. The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that
are individually classified as impaired. The general component covers non-impaired loans and is based on historical loss experience
adjusted for current economic factors described above.

The Company analyzed the tax positions
taken in its tax returns and concluded it has no liability related to uncertain tax positions.



There was a $35,673 valuation allowance
for deferred tax assets at December 31, 2013 and $32,307 at December 31, 2012 associated with the Company’s state net operating
loss. In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion
or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred income tax assets is dependent upon
the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible and prior to
their expiration governed by the income tax code. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected
future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income
and projections for future taxable income over the periods during which the deferred income tax assets are expected to be deductible,
management believes it is more likely than not the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences, net of the
existing valuation allowance at December 31, 2013. The amount of the deferred income tax asset considered realizable, however,
could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carry forward period are reduced.



Tax returns for 2010 and subsequent
years are subject to examination by taxing authorities.



| | 8. | Commitments and Contingencies
| | -- | -----------------------------



We entered into agreements to lease
equipment and office facilities under non-cancellable operating lease agreements expiring on various dates through 2039. We may,
at our option, extend the lease of our office facility at 256 Meeting Street in Charleston, South Carolina, for two additional
ten year periods, extend the lease of our Summerville office at 100 North Main Street for two additional ten year periods, and
extend the land lease where the Mt. Pleasant office is located for six additional five year periods. In addition, we rent office
space at 1071 Morrison Drive Charleston, South Carolina, to house our Mortgage Department. This lease renews every two years. Management
intends to exercise its option on the lease agreements. Lease payments below include the lease renewals. Minimum rental commitments
for these leases as of December 31, 2013 are as follows:



|2014                |  | $ | 589,286   | 
|------------------- |  | - | --------- | 
|2015                |  |   | 604,182   | 
|2016                |  |   | 594,582   | 
|2017                |  |   | 611,816   | 
|2018                |  |   | 619,560   | 
|2019 and thereafter |  |   | 6,534,118 | 
|                    |  |   |           | 
|Total               |  | $ | 9,553,544 | 



Total rental expense was $555,646,
$531,094 and $526,128 in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.



On January 28, 2014, we signed
a lease to open a banking office located on Highway 78, North Charleston, South Carolina (a copy of the lease is incorporated herein
as Exhibit 10.8). The building soon to be constructed is expected to be completed in late 2015. Rental payments do not commence
until we take control of our space.



We are a party to financial instruments
with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our customers. These financial instruments
include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of
credit, interest rate, and liquidity risk. Our exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the
financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in
extending loan facilities to customers. We use the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it
does for on-balance sheet instruments.



57







BANK OF SOUTH CAROLINA CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



Commitments to extend credit are
agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally
have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected
to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The amount
of collateral obtained if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit is based on management’s credit evaluation of
the borrower. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, negotiable instruments, inventory, property, plant and
equipment, and real estate. Commitments to extend credit, including unused lines of credit, amounted to $64,830,461 and $51,144,731
at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.



Standby letters of credit represent
our obligation to a third party contingent upon the failure by our customer to perform under the terms of an underlying contract
with the third party or obligates us to guarantee or stand as surety for the benefit of the third party. The underlying contract
may entail either financial or nonfinancial obligations and may involve such things as the shipment of goods, performance of a
contract, or repayment of an obligation. Under the terms of a standby letter, drafts will generally be drawn only when the underlying
event fails to occur as intended. We can seek recovery of the amounts paid from the borrower. The majority of these standby letters
of credit are unsecured. Commitments under standby letters of credit are usually for one year or less. At December 31, 2013 and
2012, we have recorded no liability for the current carrying amount of the obligation to perform as a guarantor; as such amounts
are not considered material. The maximum potential amount of undiscounted future payments related to standby letters of credit
at December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $557,593 and $749,712, respectively.



We originate certain fixed rate
residential loans and commit these loans for sale. The commitments to originate fixed rate residential loans and the sale commitments
are freestanding derivative instruments. The fair value of these commitments was not significant at December 31, 2013 and 2012.
We had forward sales commitments, totaling $4.7 million at December 31, 2013 to sell loans held for sale of $4.7 million. Such
forward sales commitments are to sell loans at par value and are generally funded within 60 days. The fair value of these commitments
was not significant at December 31, 2013. We have no embedded derivative instruments requiring separate accounting treatment.



| | 9. | Related Party Transactions
| | -- | --------------------------



In the opinion of management, loans
to our officers and directors are made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those terms
prevailing at the time for comparable loans with persons not related to the lender that do not involve more than the normal risk
of collectability. There were no outstanding loans to our executive officers as of December 31, 2013 and 2012. Related party loans
are summarized as follows:



|                             |  | DECEMBER 31, |

|Balance at end of year       |  | $            | 9,196,360 



At
December 31, 2013 and 2012 total deposits held by related parties were $6,200,370 and $4,567,509, respectively.

| | 11. | StockIncentive
Plan and Employee Stock Ownership Plan and Trust
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------



We have a Stock Incentive Plan
which was approved in 1998 with 180,000 (299,475 adjusted for two 10% stock dividends, a 10% stock distribution, and a 25% stock
dividend) shares reserved and a Stock Incentive Plan which was approved in 2010 with 300,000 shares reserved. Under both Plans,
options are periodically granted to employees at a price not less than the fair market value of the shares at the date of grant.
Employees become 20% vested after five years and then vest 20% each year until fully vested. The right to exercise each such 20%
of the options is cumulative and will not expire until the tenth anniversary of the date of the grant.



On June 27, 2013, the Executive Committee
granted options to purchase an aggregate of 5,000 shares to five employees. Fair value was estimated at the date of grant using
the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: dividend yield 3.98%, historical volatility 36.34%, risk
free interest rate of 2.49%, and an expected life of ten years. On December 19, 2013, the Executive Committee granted options to
purchase an aggregate of 2,000 shares to three employees. Fair value was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes
option pricing model with the following assumptions: dividend yield 3.98%, historical volatility 36.34%, risk free interest rate
of 2.94%, and an expected life of ten years.



On June 28, 2012 the Executive Committee
granted options to purchase an aggregate of 9,000 shares to five employees. Fair value was estimated at the date of grant using
the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: dividend yield 3.97%, historical volatility 33.94%, with
an expected life of ten years, and a risk free interest rate of 1.60%. On September 24, 2012, the Board of Director’s granted options
to purchase 2,500 shares to one employee. Fair value was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing
model with the following assumptions: dividend yield 3.97%, historical volatility 33.94%, with an expected life of ten years, and
a risk free interest rate of 1.74%.



On March 24, 2011, the Executive Committee
granted options to purchase 5,000 shares of stock to one employee. Fair value was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes
option pricing model with the following assumptions used for the grant: dividend yield 4.02%, historical volatility 54.43%, risk
free interest rate of 3.42%, and an expected life of 10 years. In addition, the Executive Committee granted options to purchase
96,000 shares of stock to twenty-two employees (including 2 Executive Officers) on June 23, 2011. Fair value was estimated at the
date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions used for the grant: dividend yield 4.02%,
historical volatility 54.43%, risk free interest rate of 2.93%, and an expected life of ten years.

it received a satisfactory rating at its most recent examination. The Bank paid dividends of $2,245,000, $2,160,000 and $1,790,000
to the Company during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.



| | 13. | Income Per Common
Share
| | --- | -----------------------



Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income
by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by
the weighted-average number of common shares and potential common shares outstanding. Potential common shares consist of dilutive
stock options determined using the treasury stock method and the average market price of common stock.



All options outstanding, (options to purchase 159,165)
at December 31, 2013, were used in the computation of diluted earnings per share at December 31, 2013. Options to purchase 34,675
shares of common stock with prices ranging from $11.67 to $15.11 per share were not included in the computation of diluted earnings
per share for 2012 because the options’ exercise price was greater than the average market price of common shares.



The following is a summary of the reconciliation of average shares
outstanding for the years ended December 31:



|                                    |  | 2013  |           | 2012 |         | 2011

| | 15. | Disclosures Regarding Fair Value of
Financial Instruments
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------



Fair Value Measurements:
Fair value measurements apply whenever GAAP requires or permits assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value either on a
recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer
a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for an asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants
at the measurement date. Fair value is based on the assumptions that management believes market participants would use when pricing
an asset or liability. Fair value measurement and disclosure guidance established a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes
the use of inputs used in valuation methodologies.



The three levels
of input that may be used to measure fair value are the following:



|Level 1 | Valuation is based upon quoted prices (unadjusted) in active  markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. Level 1 assets and liabilities include debt and equity securities and derivative contracts that are traded in an active exchange market, as well as US Treasuries and money market funds.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              
|------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|Level 2 | Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 2 assets and liabilities include debt securities with quoted prices that are traded less frequently than exchange-traded instruments, mortgage-backed securities, municipal bonds, corporate debt securities and derivative contracts whose value is determined using a pricing model with inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. This category generally includes certain derivative contracts and impaired loans.
|Level 3 | Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption based on unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.                



The guidance requires disclosures
about the fair value of assets and liabilities recognized in the balance sheet in periods subsequent to initial recognition, whether
the measurements are made on a recurring basis (for example, available-for-sale investment securities) or on a nonrecurring basis
(for example, impaired loans). Fair value estimates, methods, and assumptions are set forth below.



Investment Securities Available
for Sale



Securities available for sale
are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis and are based upon quoted prices if available. If quoted prices are not
available, fair values are measured using independent pricing models or other model-based valuation techniques such as the
present value of future cash flows, adjusted for the security’s credit rating, prepayment assumptions and other factors such
as credit loss assumptions. Level 1 securities include those traded on an active exchange such as the New York Stock
Exchange, or by dealers or brokers in active over-the counter markets. Level 2 securities include mortgage backed securities
issued by government sponsored entities, municipal bonds and corporate debt securities. Securities classified as Level 3
include asset-backed securities in less liquid markets.

Other Real Estate Owned (OREO)



Loans, secured by real estate, are
adjusted to fair value upon transfer to other real estate owned (OREO). Subsequently, OREO is carried at the lower of carrying
value or fair value. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised values of the collateral or management’s estimation
of the value of the collateral. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraisal,
we record the asset as nonrecurring Level 2. When an appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of
the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, we record the asset as nonrecurring
Level 3. We did not have any Other Real Estate Owned at December 31, 2013 or 2012.

Impaired Loans



We do not record loans at fair value
on a recurring basis. However, from time to time, a loan is considered impaired and an allowance for loan losses is established.
Loans are reviewed for impairment on a quarterly basis if any of the following criteria are met:



1)      Any
loan on non-accrual

2)      Any loan that
is a troubled debt restructuring

3)      Any loan over
60 days past due

4)      Any loan rated
sub-standard, doubtful, or loss

5)      Excessive principal
extensions are executed

6)      If we are
provided information that indicates that we will not collect all principal and interest as scheduled



Once a loan is identified as individually
impaired, management measures the impairment in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 310-10, “Accounting
by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan”.



In accordance with this standard,
the fair value is estimated using one of the following methods: fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell, discounted
cash flows, or market value of the loan based on similar debt. The fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell is
the most frequently used method. Typically, we review the most recent appraisal and if it is over 12 to 18 months old we may request
a new third party appraisal. Depending on the particular circumstances surrounding the loan, including the location of the collateral,
the date of the most recent appraisal and the value of the collateral relative to the recorded investment in the loan, management
may order an independent appraisal immediately or, in some instances, may elect to perform an internal analysis. Specifically as
an example, in situations where the collateral on a nonperforming commercial real estate loan is out of our primary market area,
management would typically order an independent appraisal immediately, at the earlier of the date the loan becomes nonperforming
or immediately following the determination that the loan is impaired. However, as a second example, on a nonperforming commercial
real estate loan where management is familiar with the property and surrounding areas and where the original appraisal value far
exceeds the recorded investment in the loan, management may perform an internal analysis whereby the previous appraisal value
would be reviewed considering recent current conditions, and known recent sales or listings of similar properties in the area,
and any other relevant economic trends. This analysis may result in the call for a new appraisal. These valuations are reviewed
and updated on a quarterly basis.



Those impaired loans not requiring
an allowance represent loans for which the fair value of the expected repayments or collateral exceed the recorded investments
in such loans. At December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, substantially all of the total impaired loans were evaluated based on
the fair value of the collateral. In accordance with ASC 820, impaired loans where an allowance is established based on the fair
value of collateral require classification in the fair value hierarchy. The Company records the impaired loan as nonrecurring Level
3.



Mortgage Loans To Be Sold



We originate fixed and variable rate
residential mortgage loans on a service release basis in the secondary market. Loans closed but not yet settled with an investor
are carried in our loans held for sale portfolio. These loans are fixed and variable rate residential mortgage loans that have
been originated in our name and have closed. Virtually all of these loans have commitments to be purchased by investors and the
majority of these loans were locked in by price with the investors on the same day or shortly thereafter that the loan was locked
in with our customers. Therefore, these loans present very little market risk. We usually deliver to, and receive funding from,
the investor within 30 to 60 days. Commitments to sell these loans to the investor are considered derivative contracts and are
sold to investors on a “best efforts” basis. We are not obligated to deliver a loan or pay a penalty if a loan is not
delivered to the investor. As a result of the short-term nature of these derivative contracts, the fair value of the mortgage loans
held for sale in most cases is the same as the value of the loan amount at its origination. These loans are classified as Level
2.

BANK OF SOUTH CAROLINA CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



Certain assets and liabilities are
measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis; that is, the instruments are not measured at fair value on an on going basis but
are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). The following
table presents the assets and liabilities carried on the balance sheet by caption and by level within the valuation hierarchy (as
described above) as of December 31, 2013, and 2012, for which a nonrecurring change in fair value has been recorded during the

Accounting standards require disclosure
of fair value information about financial instruments whether or not recognized on the balance sheet, for which it is practicable
to estimate fair value. Fair value estimates are made as of a specific point in time based on the characteristics of the financial
instruments and the relevant market information. When available, quoted market prices are used. In other cases, fair values are
based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. These techniques involve uncertainties and are significantly
affected by the assumptions used and the judgments made regarding risk characteristics of various financial instruments, discount
rates, prepayments, and estimates of future cash flows, future expected loss experience and other factors. Changes in assumptions
could significantly affect these estimates. Derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets
and, in many cases, may or may not be realized in an immediate sale of the instrument.



Under the accounting standard, fair
value estimates are based on existing financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business
and the value of the assets and liabilities that are not financial instruments. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts of
existing financing instruments do not represent the underlying value of those instruments on our books.

BANK OF SOUTH CAROLINA CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



The following describes the methods
and assumptions we use in estimating the fair values of financial instruments:



a. Cash and due from banks, interest
bearing deposits in other banks

The carrying value approximates
fair value. All mature within 90 days and do not present unanticipated credit concerns.



b. Investment securities available
for sale

The fair value of investment
securities is derived from quoted market prices.



c. Loans

The carrying values of variable rate consumer and commercial loans and consumer and commercial
loans with remaining maturities of three months or less, approximate fair value. The fair values of fixed rate consumer and commercial
loans with maturities greater than three months are determined using a discounted cash flow analysis and assume the rate being
offered on these types of loans at December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, approximate market.



The carrying value of mortgage loans
held for sale approximates fair value.



For lines of credit, the carrying
value approximates fair value.



d. Deposits

The estimated fair
value of deposits with no stated maturity is equal to the carrying amount. The fair value of time deposits is estimated by discounting
contractual cash flows, by applying interest rates currently being offered on the deposit products. The fair value estimates for
deposits do not include the benefit that results from the low cost funding provided by the deposit liabilities as compared to
the cost of alternative forms of funding (deposit base intangibles).



The following presents the carrying amount,
fair value, and placement in the fair value hierarchy of our financial instruments as of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
This table excludes financial instruments for which the carrying amount approximates fair value. For short-term financial assets
such as cash and cash equivalents, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value due to the relatively short time
between the origination of the instrument and its expected realization.

| | 18. | Subsequent Events
| | --- | -----------------



Subsequent events are events
or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued. Recognized subsequent events
are events or transactions that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet, including
the estimates inherent in the process of preparing financial statements. Nonrecognized subsequent events are events that provide
evidence about conditions that did not exist at the date of the balance sheet but arose after that date. Management has reviewed
events occurring through the date the financial statements were available to be issued and no subsequent events occurred requiring
accrual or disclosure.



On January 20, 2014 we were served with a civil complaint
for imperfect securitization of a Note and/or Mortgage. We closed this loan on June 22, 2006 using a MERS Mortgage. The loan was
then sold to Countrywide (now known as Bank of America). Our Note was endorsed to Countrywide prior to submitting the loan for
their purchase review. After the loan was purchased on July 10, 2006, the transfer was completed for the sale of the Mortgage to
Countrywide on the MERS registration system on July 12, 2006. Our legal counsel is reviewing the suit. We believe there will be
no loss in the case.



On January 28, 2014, we signed a lease to open a banking
office on Highway 78 and Ingleside Boulevard, North Charleston, South Carolina in 2015 (a copy of the lease is incorporated
herein as Exhibit 10.8).



Item 9. Changes In and Disagreements
With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure



None



Item 9A. Controls and Procedures



An evaluation of the Company’s
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities and Exchange
Act of 1934 as amended (the “Act”) was carried out as of December 31, 2013 under the supervision and with the participation
of the Bank of South Carolina Corporation’s management, including its President/Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial
Officer/Executive Vice President and several other members of the Company’s senior management. Based upon that evaluation, Bank
of South Carolina Corporation’s management, including the President/Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer/Executive
Vice President concluded that, as of December 31, 2013, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring
that the information the Company is required to disclose in the reports filed or submitted under the act has been (i) accumulated
and communicated to management (including the President/Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer/Executive Vice President)
to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time
periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.



Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting



The Company’s management is responsible
for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f)
of the Exchange Act. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding
the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of published financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles.



Under the supervision and with
the participation of management, including the President/Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer/Executive Vice
President, the Company’s management has evaluated the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of December
31, 2013, based on the framework established in a report entitled “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued
by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and the interpretive guidance issued by the Securities
and Exchange Commission in Release No. 34-55929.





73









Because of its inherent limitations,
internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness
to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree
of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.



The Company’s management assessed
the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013. Based on this assessment,
management believes that as of December 31, 2013, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective. There
were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2013,
that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.



This annual report does not include
an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s
report is not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to the final ruling by the Securities
and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in its annual report.



The Audit and Compliance Committee,
composed entirely of independent Directors, meets periodically with management, the Company’s Compliance Officer, Risk Management
Officer and Elliott Davis, LLC (separately and jointly) to discuss audit, financial and related matters. Elliott Davis, LLC and
the internal auditor have direct access to the Audit and Compliance Committee.
