PALMETTO BANCSHARES,
INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements



|1. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
|-- | ------------------------------------------

Nature of Operations

Palmetto Bancshares, Inc. (the Company, which may be
referred to as we, us, or our) is a regional bank holding company organized in 1982 under the laws of South Carolina and is headquartered in Greenville, South Carolina. Through the Companys subsidiary, The
Palmetto Bank (the Bank), which began operations in 1904, and the Banks wholly-owned subsidiary, Palmetto Capital, we provide a broad array of commercial banking, consumer banking, trust and investment management, and brokerage
services throughout our primary market area of northwest South Carolina.

Principles of Consolidation / Basis of Presentation

The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company, which includes our wholly-owned subsidiary, the
Bank, and the Banks wholly-owned subsidiary, Palmetto Capital, and other subsidiaries of the Bank. In managements opinion, all significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation, and all adjustments
necessary for a fair presentation of the financial condition and results of operations for periods presented have been included. Any such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Assets held by the Company or its subsidiary in a fiduciary
or agency capacity for customers are not included in the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements because those items do not represent assets of the Company or its subsidiary. The accounting and financial reporting policies of the Company
conform, in all material respects, to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and to general practices within the financial services industry.

The Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 contained in this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q have not been audited by our independent registered public accounting firm. The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q
adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). Accordingly, the Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements, and notes thereto, for the year ended December 31, 2009, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Subsequent Events

We have evaluated the
effects of subsequent events that have occurred subsequent to the period ended September 30, 2010. All material events that require recognition in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements or disclosure in the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements have been included herein.

Business Segments

Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that are evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision makers in deciding how to allocate
resources and assess performance. As of and since September 30, 2010, we have made no changes to our determination in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 that we had one reportable operating segment,
banking.

Use of Estimates

In preparing our Consolidated Financial Statements, the Companys management makes estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the Consolidated Financial Statements for the years presented. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions. Therefore, the results
of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected in future periods.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts previously presented in our Consolidated Financial Statements for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to current
classifications. All such reclassifications had no impact on the prior periods net loss or shareholders equity as previously reported.

Risk and Uncertainties

In the normal course of business, the Company encounters two
significant types of risk: economic and regulatory. There are three main components of economic risk: credit risk, market risk, and concentration of credit risk. Credit risk is the risk of default on the Companys loan portfolio that results
from borrowers inability or unwillingness to make contractually required payments. Market risk includes primarily interest rate risk. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk to the degree that our interest-bearing liabilities mature or
reprice at different speeds, or different bases, than our interest-earning assets. Market risk also reflects the risk of declines in the valuation of assets and liabilities and in the value of the collateral underlying loans and the value of real
estate held by the Company. Concentration of credit risk refers to the risk that, if the Company extends a significant portion of our total outstanding credit to borrowers in a specific geographical area or industry or on the security of a specific
form of collateral, the Company may experience disproportionately high levels of defaults and losses if those borrowers, or the value of such type of collateral, are adversely impacted by economic or other factors that are particularly applicable to
such borrowers or collateral. Concentration of credit risk is also similarly applicable to the investment securities portfolio.

The Bank is
subject to the regulations of various government agencies. These regulations may change significantly from period to period. The Bank also undergoes periodic examinations by regulatory agencies, which may subject the Bank to changes with respect to
asset valuations, amount of required allowance for loan losses, lending requirements, capital levels, or operating restrictions.

The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recently Adopted / Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Certain accounting standards required
additional disclosures for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010, and such disclosures are included herein.

The
following is a summary of applicable accounting pronouncements issued during the three month period ended September 30, 2010.

In July
2010, the Receivables topic of the ASC was amended to require expanded disclosures related to a companys allowance for credit losses and the credit quality of its financing receivables. The amendments will require the allowance disclosures to
be provided on a disaggregated basis. The Company is required to begin to comply with the disclosures in its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010.

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 the Companys financial position, results of
operations, or cash flows.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

We report comprehensive income (loss) in accordance with GAAP, which establishes standards for the reporting and presentation of comprehensive income (loss) and its components in financial statements. In
accordance with this guidance, we elected to disclose changes in comprehensive income (loss) in our Consolidated Statements of Changes in Shareholders Equity and Comprehensive Income (Loss). Comprehensive income (loss) includes all changes in
shareholders equity during a period except those resulting from transactions with shareholders.

|2. | Cash and Cash Equivalents
|-- | -------------------------

Required Reserve Balances

The Federal
Reserve Act requires each depository institution to maintain reserves against its reservable liabilities as prescribed by regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve (the Federal Reserve). The Bank reports our reservable
liabilities to the Federal Reserve on a weekly basis. Weekly reporting institutions maintain reserves on their reservable liabilities with a 30-day lag. For the maintenance period ended on October 6, 2010, based on reservable liabilities from
August 24, 2010 through September 6, 2010, the Federal Reserve required the Bank to maintain reserves of $11.0 million. After taking into consideration our levels of vault cash, reserves of $2.5 million were required to be maintained with
the Federal Reserve.

Concentrations and Restrictions

In an effort to manage our associated risks, we generally do not sell federal funds to other financial institutions because they are essentially uncollateralized loans. Management regularly evaluates the
risk associated with the counterparties to these potential transactions to ensure that we would not expose ourselves to any significant risks with regard to our cash and cash equivalent balances.

Cash and cash equivalents were pledged as collateral and therefore restricted at the dates indicated (in thousands).

In October 2010, we purchased additional state and municipal, collateralized mortgage obligations, and other mortgage-backed
investment securities aggregating approximately $46 million.

We use prices from third party pricing services and, to a lesser extent,
indicative (non-binding) quotes from third party brokers, to measure fair value of our investment securities. For securities priced by third party pricing services, management determines the most appropriate and relevant pricing service for each
security class and has that pricing service provide the price for each security in the class. We record the unadjusted value provided by the third party pricing service / broker in our Consolidated Financial Statements, subject to our internal price
verification procedures.

Maturities

The following table summarizes the amortized cost and estimated fair value of
investment securities available for sale at September 30, 2010 by contractual maturity (in thousands). Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations. Collateralized
mortgage obligations and other mortgage-backed securities are shown separately since they are not due at a single maturity date.

The weighted average contractual life of investment securities available for sale was 2.9 years at September 30,
2010. Since 39%, based on amortized cost, of the portfolio is collateralized mortgage obligations or other mortgage-backed securities, the expected remaining maturity may differ from contractual maturity because borrowers generally have the right to
prepay obligations before the underlying mortgages mature.

Commercial Loans Held
for Sale

In September 2010, we made the decision to market for sale commercial loans totaling $90.9 million at September 30, 2010,
and we have entered into agreements with two loan sale advisory firms to market $81.4 million of these loans for sale. The sales of the remaining loans totaling $9.5 million are being negotiated for sale directly with potential buyers, of which $7.9
million are currently under letters of intent. The targeted closing dates for the sales are the fourth quarter of 2010.

Commercial loans held
for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, and a valuation allowance of $2.4 million is recorded against the loans held for sale resulting in a net carrying amount in the Consolidated Balance Sheet of $88.5 million. Of the total gross
amount of the loans, $61.7 million were loans individually evaluated for impairment that were transferred to loans held for sale at their recorded book values, net of their related specifically identified allowances for loan losses. The remaining
loans were transferred at their estimated fair values, with the differences between their recorded book values recorded as a charge to the allowance for loan losses and carried over as a valuation allowance.

Of the aggregate balance of commercial loans held for sale, 98.4% are commercial real estate based on FDIC code.

No interest income was recorded during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010 on loans classified as
nonaccrual, as payments collected on nonaccrual loans are applied to the principal balance of the loan. Additional interest income of $962 thousand and $3.2 million would have been reported during the three and nine month periods ended
September 30, 2010, respectively, had these loans performed in accordance with their contractual terms. As a result, our earnings did not include this interest income.

Troubled Debt Restructurings. At September 30, 2010, the principal balance of troubled debt restructurings, in gross loans and commercial loans held for sale, totaled $33.5 million, of which
three loans totaling $13.7 million have been transferred to commercial loans held for sale. At December 31, 2009, the principal balance of troubled debt restructurings totaled $14.6 million.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we wrote-off from the Consolidated Balance Sheet fully depreciated and
obsolete furniture and equipment and the related accumulated depreciation.

At September 30, 2010, a vacant branch facility with a net
book value of $259 thousand was listed for sale and is included within the Other assets financial statement line item of the Consolidated Balance Sheets.



|6. | Goodwill, net
|-- | -------------

Goodwill of $3.7
million resulted from past business combinations from 1988 through 1999. We perform our annual impairment testing as of June 30. However, due to the overall adverse economic environment and the negative impact on the banking industry as a
whole, including the impact to the Company resulting in net losses and a decline in market capitalization based on our common stock price, we also performed an impairment test of our goodwill at September 30, 2010.

Our common stock is not listed on an
exchange or any over-the-counter service. Thus, there is currently no public trading market of our common stock, and private trading of our common stock has been limited. In addition, buyers and sellers may privately negotiate transactions in our
common stock for which we are not aware of the traded price. Since there is not an established market for our common stock, we are not aware of all prices at which our common stock has been traded. Accordingly, we determine the value of our common
stock based on the last five trades of the stock facilitated by the Company through the Private Trading System on our website.

While there
were trades in our common stock in the first and second quarters of 2010 through the Private Trading System, there were not any trades through the private trading system since the announcement of the private placement transaction in May 2010 (the
Private Placement). The Private Placement was consummated on October 7, 2010 pursuant to which the Company issued 39,975,980 shares of its common stock at $2.60 per share. This per share issue price was negotiated by the Company
with the institutional investors in the Private Placement and was supported by a fairness opinion from the investment banking firm engaged by the Companys Board of Directors, including in comparison to common stock prices as a percentage of
book value for publicly traded banks with similar asset quality and financial condition of the Company and in comparison to recent merger and acquisition transactions. Accordingly, since the Private Placement was consummated prior to the issuance of
our September 30, 2010 financial statements, we believe it was appropriate to consider the $2.60 issue price in our goodwill impairment evaluation at September 30, 2010.

The first step of the goodwill impairment evaluation was performed by comparing the fair value of our reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. Since the carrying amount of the
reporting unit exceeded its fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test was performed to measure the amount of impairment loss. The second step of the goodwill impairment test compared the implied fair value of our reporting unit
goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. Since the carrying amount of reporting unit goodwill exceeded the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss was recognized in an amount equal to that excess. The evaluation at
September 30, 2010 indicated that the carrying value of the Companys goodwill exceeded the fair value and resulted in a third quarter noncash charge of $3.7 million, eliminating the entire amount of the goodwill on the Companys
Consolidated Balance Sheet. This charge had no effect on the liquidity, regulatory capital, or daily operations of the Company and was recorded as a component of noninterest expense on the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss).

No impairment loss was recognized at December 31, 2009.



|7. | Mortgage-Banking Activities
|-- | ---------------------------

Mortgage loans serviced for the benefit of others amounted to $425.5 million and $426.6 million at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009,
respectively, and are excluded from our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The book value of mortgage-servicing rights at September 30, 2010
and December 31, 2009 was $2.9 million and $3.0 million, respectively. Mortgage-servicing rights are included within the Other assets financial statement line item of the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of mortgage-servicing rights
at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 was $3.3 million and $3.6 million, respectively.

We initially record a foreclosed asset at fair value when it is transferred from loans to real estate acquired in settlement
of loans, generally based on a third party appraisal, with any difference between the recorded book value of the loan and the fair value recorded as a charge-off to the allowance for loan losses. Subsequently, we normally obtain an updated appraisal
on an annual basis and record any difference between the carrying value and the revised fair value less costs to sell as a provision charged to expense.

Subsequent to September 30, 2010, 14 properties with an aggregate net carrying amount of $1.7 million were sold at a gain of $5 thousand. At October 27, 2010, 17 additional properties with an
aggregate net carrying amount of $6.3 million were under contract for sale scheduled to close in the fourth quarter of 2010.

FHLB Borrowings

As disclosed in Notes
2, 3, and 4, we pledge cash and cash equivalents, investment securities, and loans to collateralize FHLB advances and letters of credit. In order to compute lendable collateral amounts, the market value of pledged securities and loans balances is
reduced by a collateral discount factor. This amount is then adjusted by the institution assigned collateral maintenance level factor. Among other things, the collateral maintenance level factor takes into account our collateral credit score
determined by the FHLB. Cash and cash equivalents, if pledged, are not subject to the collateralization maintenance level.

In January 2010, we were notified by the FHLB that we are able to rollover existing advances as they mature;
however, the FHLB will not allow incremental borrowings until our financial condition improves.

Federal Reserve Discount Window

On September 30, 2010, $12.3 million of loans were pledged as collateral to cover the various Federal Reserve System services that
are being utilized by the Company. The maximum maturity for borrowings is overnight. Any future potential borrowings from the Federal Reserve Discount Window are at the secondary credit rate and must be used for operational issues, and the Federal
Reserve has the discretion to deny approval of borrowing requests.

We had no outstanding borrowings from the Federal Reserve at
September 30, 2010 or December 31, 2009.

Convertible Debt

At September 30, 2010, the Company had outstanding unsecured convertible promissory notes in an aggregate principal amount of $380 thousand to members of the Companys Board of Directors. The
notes bore interest at 10% per year payable quarterly, had a stated maturity of March 31, 2015, were prepayable by the Company at any time, and were mandatorily convertible into stock of the Company at the same terms and conditions as
other investors that participated in the Companys next stock offering. The notes were issued in March 2010 and the proceeds from the issuance of the notes were contributed to the Bank as a capital contribution in March 2010. As of
September 30, 2010, interest of $19 thousand had been accrued but not paid. On October 7, 2010, in conjunction with the consummation of the Private Placement, the principal balances of the outstanding convertible promissory notes were
converted into shares of the Companys common stock at the same price per share as the common stock issued in the Private Placement, and the accrued interest was paid on October 7, 2010.



|11. | Employee Benefit Plans
|--- | ----------------------

401(k)
Plan

During the three month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, matching contributions made in conjunction with our employee
401(k) plan totaled $115 thousand and $105 thousand, respectively. During the nine month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, matching contributions made in conjunction with our employee 401(k) plan totaled $314 thousand and $308
thousand, respectively.

Defined Benefit Pension Plan

Historically, we have offered a noncontributory, defined benefit pension plan that covered all full-time employees having at least twelve months of continuous service and having attained age 21. The plan
was frozen on December 31, 2007; accordingly, effective January 1, 2008, we ceased accruing pension benefits under the plan. Although no previously accrued benefits were lost, employees no longer accrue benefits for service subsequent to
2007.

|--- | -------------------------

Stock Option Plan

The value of the restricted stock awarded is established as the fair value of the stock at the time of the grant. We
measure compensation cost for restricted stock awards at fair value and recognize compensation expense over the service period. As such, expense relative to 2009 grants is recognized ratably over the five year vesting period of the stock award
grants. Of the restricted stock shares outstanding at September 30, 2010, 39% vest on July 1 and 61% vest on December 31. The compensation expense that was charged against pretax income during the three month periods ended
September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009 for restricted stock awards was $78 thousand and $58 thousand, respectively. The total income tax benefit recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) with regard to the deductible
portion of this compensation cost for the same periods was $27 thousand and $21 thousand, respectively. The

compensation expense that was charged against pretax income during the nine month periods ended September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009 for restricted stock awards was $248 thousand
and $174 thousand, respectively. The total income tax benefit recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) with regard to the deductible portion of this compensation cost for the same periods was $89 thousand and $62 thousand,
respectively. Forfeitures are accounted for by eliminating compensation expense for unvested shares as forfeitures occur. At September 30, 2010, based on restricted stock awards outstanding at that time, the total pretax compensation cost
related to nonvested restricted stock awards granted under the restricted stock plan but not yet recognized was $1.0 million. This cost is expected to be recognized over a remaining period through 2014.

At September 30, 2010, there was no intrinsic value associated with the restricted stock as the fair value did not exceed the fair value on the date
of grant. At September 30, 2010, 204,960 shares were available for issuance under the plan. In October 2010, 5,000 shares of restricted stock were granted to an officer of the Company with an agreement to grant another 1,000 shares in October
2011 contingent upon continued employment through that date.

Shares of restricted stock granted to employees under the 2008 Restricted Stock
Plan are subject to pro rata restrictions as to continuous employment for a specified time period following the date of grant, currently five years. During this period, the holder is entitled to full voting rights and dividends.

Private Placement

On May 25, 2010, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase
Agreement (as amended by Amendment No. 1 on June 8, 2010 and Amendment No. 2 on September 22, 2010) and Registration Rights Agreement (as amended by Amendment No. 1 on June 8, 2010 (collectively referred to as the
Investment Agreements) with institutional investors pursuant to which the investors committed to purchase approximately $103 million of shares of the Companys common stock at $2.60 per share.

Pursuant to the Investment Agreements, the Company agreed to, among other things, nominate and appoint three designees of the investors to the
Companys and the Banks Board of Directors. In addition, the investors will have preemptive rights with respect to public or private offerings of the Companys common stock (or rights to purchase, or securities convertible into or
exercisable for, common stock) during a 24-month period after the closing of the Private Placement to enable the investors to maintain their percentage interests of the Companys common stock beneficially owned, subject to certain exceptions,
including an exception that permits the Company to conduct a common stock offering following the closing of the Private Placement of up to $10 million directed to the Companys shareholders as of the close of business on October 6, 2010. A
registration statement was filed with the SEC on October 8, 2010 for the offering of up to $10 million of shares of the Companys common stock at $2.60 per share solely to the Companys shareholders as of October 6, 2010. These
shareholders will have 30 days from the effective date of the registration statement to purchase shares of the Companys common stock. The foregoing information does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy shares
of the Companys common stock.

The Private Placement was conditioned upon, among other things, the Companys shareholders
approval of an amendment to the Companys Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 25,000,000 shares to 75,000,000 shares and reduce the par value of the common stock from
$5.00 per share to $0.01 per share, the Companys representations and warranties contained in the Investment Agreements being true and correct in all material respects on the closing date, and the investors receiving all required regulatory
approvals and determinations.

At the Companys annual shareholder meeting on August 6, 2010 the shareholders approved the two
amendments to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation. In addition, on September 22, 2010, the Company received the necessary regulatory approval from the Federal Reserve. On October 7, 2010, the Private Placement was
consummated and the Company issued 39,975,980 shares of its common stock at $2.60 per share resulting in gross proceeds of $103.9 million. On that day, $94.0 million of the net proceeds from the Private Placement were contributed to the Bank as a
capital contribution.

Cash Dividends

The Board of Directors has not declared or paid a dividend on our common stock since the quarter ended March 31, 2009. The Company and the Bank are
subject to regulatory policies and requirements relating to the payment of dividends. Since our total risk-based capital ratio was below the well-capitalized regulatory minimum threshold at September 30, 2010, payment of a dividend on our
common stock would have required prior notification and non-objection from the FDIC.

computations for the periods indicated.

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted
average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. For diluted net income per share, the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common
shares had been issued. If dilutive, common stock equivalents are calculated for stock options and restricted stock shares using the treasury stock method. No potential common shares were included in the computation of the diluted per share amount
for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 as inclusion would be antidilutive given our net loss during the periods.



|14. | Income Taxes
|--- | ------------

During 2009, the
U.S. Congress extended the net operating loss carryback period from two years to five years for qualifying institutions. As a result of our net operating loss in 2009, the Company filed income tax refund claims related to carrybacks from 2004
through 2007 and federal and state tax refund claims for estimated taxes paid in 2009 totaling $20.9 million, all of which were received during the three month period ended March 31, 2010. The refund claims were subsequently reduced by $661
thousand as a result of the filing of an amended 2009 federal income tax return in June 2010.

Effective January 1, 2010, the available
carryback years for net operating losses under the Internal Revenue Code rules reverted from five years back to two years. At September 30, 2010, the Company has additional carryback capacity in 2010 to recapture up to $7.9 million of taxes
paid in 2008. Our income tax receivable of $7.6 million recorded at September 30, 2010 was primarily the result of our taxable net operating loss for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010 which was carried back to 2008.

As of September 30, 2010, net deferred tax assets totaling $13.2 million are recorded in the Companys Consolidated Balance
Sheet. As of that date, we determined that $351 thousand of our net deferred tax assets are realizable based primarily on an available refund from net operating loss carryback against income taxes previously paid in 2008, and $12.8 million is
supported by tax planning strategies and projections of future taxable income. Accordingly, no valuation allowance is recorded against net deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2010.

In addition, the Private Placement that was consummated on October 7, 2010 is considered a change in control under the Internal Revenue Service
rules. Accordingly, with the assistance of third party specialists we are in the process of determining the fair values of our assets for purposes of evaluating any potential limitations or deferrals of our ability to utilize in the future the net
operating losses incurred through the consummation date and / or any built in losses as of the consummation date. Any such limitation or deferrals could result in the need to record a valuation allowance against all or a portion of our deferred tax
assets. We expect to have our analysis completed in the fourth quarter 2010.

Lending Commitments and Standby Letters of Credit

Unused lending commitments to customers
are not recorded in our Consolidated Balance Sheets until funds are advanced. For commercial customers, lending commitments generally take the form of unused revolving credit arrangements to finance customers working capital requirements. For
retail customers, lending commitments are generally unused lines of credit secured by residential property.

The following table summarizes
the contractual amounts of our unused lending commitments relating to extension of credit with off-balance sheet risk at September 30, 2010 (in thousands).

Commitments to fund other loans are comprised primarily of overdraft protection lines and lines related to
commercial and industrial loans.

Standby letters of credit are issued for customers in connection with contracts between the customers and
third parties. Letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by us to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The maximum potential amount of undiscounted future payments related to letters of credit was $2.3 million and
$4.6 million at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

The reserve for unfunded commitments at September 30,
2010 and December 31, 2009 was $107 thousand and $128 thousand, respectively, and is recorded in the Other liabilities financial statement line item in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Loan Participations

With regard to participations sold aggregating $23.0 million at
September 30, 2010 ($12.5 million of which related to gross loan balances and $10.5 million of which related to the contractual loan balances of real estate acquired in settlement of loans), we serve as the lead bank and are therefore
responsible for certain administration and other management functions as agent to the participating banks. The participation agreements include certain standard representations and warranties related to our duties to the participating banks.

Derivatives

See Note 16 for
further discussion regarding our off-balance sheet arrangements and commitments related to our derivative loan commitments and freestanding derivatives.

Real Property Operating Lease Obligations

We lease certain of our office facilities and
real estate related to banking services under operating leases. Two operating leases with total monthly payments of approximately $9 thousand have expired in 2010 through September 30, 2010. There has been no other significant change in future
minimum lease payments payable as reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Legal Proceedings

We are subject to actual and threatened legal proceedings and other claims against us arising out of the conduct of our business. Some of
these suits and proceedings seek damages, fines, or penalties. These suits and proceedings are being defended by, or contested on behalf of, us. On the basis of information presently available, we do not believe that existing proceedings and claims
will have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

|16. | Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------

At September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, our only derivative instruments related to our residential mortgage lending activities. We are required to recognize all derivatives as either assets
or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value. Changes in the fair value of those derivatives are reported in current earnings or other comprehensive income depending on the purpose for which the derivative is held
and whether the derivative qualifies for hedge accounting.

We originate certain residential loans with the intention of selling these loans.
Between the time that we enter into an interest rate lock commitment to originate a residential loan with a potential borrower and the time the closed loan is sold, we are subject to variability in market prices related to these commitments. We also
enter into forward sale agreements of to be issued loans. The commitments to originate residential loans and forward sales commitments are freestanding derivative instruments and are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair
value. They do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment. Fair value adjustments are recorded within the Mortgage-banking financial statement line item of the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).

At September 30, 2010, commitments to originate conforming loans totaled $13.7 million. At September 30, 2010, these derivative loan
commitments had positive fair values, included within the Other assets financial statement line item of the Consolidated Balance Sheets, totaling $289 thousand and no negative fair values. At December 31, 2009, commitments to originate
conforming loans totaled $7.0 million. At December 31, 2009, these derivative loan commitments had positive fair values, included within the Other assets financial statement line item of the Consolidated Balance Sheets, totaling $52 thousand,
and negative fair values, included within the Other liabilities financial statement line item of the Consolidated Balance Sheets, totaling $11 thousand. The net change in derivative loan commitment fair values during the three and nine month periods
ended September 30, 2010 resulted in net derivative loan commitment income of $39 thousand and $248 thousand, respectively. Net derivative loan commitment income was $136 thousand and $231 thousand for the three and nine month periods ended
September 30, 2009, respectively.

Forward sales commitments totaled $15.6 million at September 30, 2010. At September 30,
2010, forward sales commitments had positive fair values, included with the Other assets financial statement line items of the Consolidated Balance Sheets, totaling $219 thousand and negative fair values, included within the Other liabilities
financial statement line item of the Consolidated Balance Sheets, totaling $3 thousand. At December 31, 2009, forward sales commitments totaled $10.0 million. At December 31, 2009, these forward sales commitments had positive fair values,
included within the Other assets financial statement line item of the Consolidated Balance Sheets, totaling $92 thousand, and negative fair values, included within the Other liabilities financial statement line item of the Consolidated Balance
Sheets, totaling $1 thousand. The net change in forward sales commitment fair values during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010 resulted in net forward sales commitment income of $456 thousand $125 thousand, respectively.
Forward sales commitment activity resulted in a loss of $252 thousand and $7 thousand for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009, respectively.

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

We may be required, from time to time, to measure certain other assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. These adjustments to fair value
usually result from write-downs of individual assets.

For financial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis that were still
reflected in the balance sheet at period end, the following tables summarize the level of valuation assumptions used to determine each adjustment and the carrying value of the related individual assets at period end (in thousands).

##### Table of Contents



The valuation techniques for the items
in the table above are as follows:

Commercial loans held for sale and Loans, net.Loans held for sale are measured at the lower
of cost or fair value. If available, fair value is measured by the price that secondary market investors are offering for loans with similar characteristics. If quoted market prices are not available, we consider outstanding investor commitments,
discounted cash flow analyses with market assumptions, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.

Impaired
loans are evaluated for impairment using the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loans effective interest rate, or as a practical expedient, a loans observable market value or the fair value of the collateral if
the loan is collateral dependent. The measurement of impaired loans using future cash flows discounted at the loans effective interest rate rather than the market rate of interest is not a fair value measurement and is therefore excluded from
the requirements of FASB ASC 820-10. Impaired loans measured by applying the practical expedient are included in the requirements of FASB ASC 820-10. Under the practical expedient, we measure the fair value of collateral dependent impaired loans
based on the fair value of the collateral securing these loans. These measurements are classified as Level 2 or Level 3 within the valuation hierarchy. Substantially all impaired loans are secured by real estate. The fair value of this
real estate is generally determined based upon appraisals performed by a certified or licensed appraiser using inputs such as absorption rates, capitalization rates, and comparables (Level 2). Management also considers other factors or recent
developments which could result in adjustments to the collateral value estimates indicated in the appraisals such as changes in absorption rates or market conditions from the time of valuation (Level 3). Impaired loans are reviewed and
evaluated on at least a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly.

Real estate and personal property acquired in
settlement of loans. Real estate and personal property acquired in settlement of loans is adjusted to fair value less costs to sell upon transfer of a loan to real estate and personal property acquired in settlement of loans. Subsequently, real
estate and personal property acquired in settlement of loans is carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. Fair value is generally based upon current appraisals, comparable sales, and other estimates of value obtained
principally from independent sources, adjusted for estimated selling costs. However, management also considers other factors or recent developments which could result in adjustments to the collateral value estimates indicated in the appraisals such
as changes in absorption rates or market conditions from the time of valuation. In situations where management adjustments are significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety, such measurements are classified as Level 3 within the
valuation hierarchy.

FASB ASC 825-10, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments

FASB ASC 825-10, Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of fair value information, whether or not recognized in the Consolidated Balance
Sheet, when it is practical to estimate the fair value. The standard defines a financial instrument as cash, evidence of an ownership interest in an entity or contractual obligations, which require the exchange of cash, or other financial
instruments. Certain items are specifically excluded from the disclosure requirements, including our common stock, premises and equipment, accrued interest receivable and payable, and other assets and liabilities.

The following table summarizes the carrying amount and fair values for other financial instruments included in our Consolidated Balance Sheets at the
dates indicated (in thousands) for financial instruments when fair value does not approximate book value. The methodologies used to determine fair value are disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.
We have used managements best estimate of fair value based on those methodologies. Thus, the fair values presented may not be the amounts, which could be realized, in an immediate sale or settlement of the instrument. In addition, any income
taxes or other expenses, which would be incurred in an actual sale or settlement, are not taken into consideration in the fair values presented.

Recent Regulatory Developments

The Company and the Bank are subject to periodic examination by various regulatory agencies. In November 2009, the FDIC and the South
Carolina State Board of Financial Institutions (the State Board) conducted their annual joint examination of the Bank. Beginning in October 2009, the Companys Board of Directors and the Regulatory Oversight Committee of the Board
of Directors met periodically with the FDIC to receive status reports on their examination, and the Board received the final report of examination in April 2010. Effective June 10, 2010, the Bank agreed to the issuance of a Consent Order with
the FDIC and the State Board (the Consent Order). The Consent Order includes requirements regarding the Banks capital position and other requirements, including that the Bank:



| |  |  | Achieve and maintain, within 120 days from the effective date of the Consent Order, Total Risk Based capital at least equal to 10% of risk-weighted
assets and Tier 1 capital at least equal to 8% of total assets;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Determine, within 30 days of the last day of the calendar quarter, its capital ratios. If any capital measure falls below the established minimum,
within 30 days provide a written plan to the supervisory authorities describing the means and timing by which the Bank shall increase such ratios to or in excess of the established minimums;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Establish, within 30 days from the effective date of the Consent Order, a plan to monitor compliance with the Consent Order, which shall be monitored
by the Banks Board of Directors;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Develop, within 60 days from the effective date of the Consent Order, a written analysis and assessment of the Banks management and staffing
needs;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Notify the supervisory authorities in writing of the resignation or termination of any of the Banks directors or senior executive officers;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Eliminate, within 10 days from the effective date of the Consent Order, by charge-off or collection, all assets or portions of assets classified
Loss and 50% of those assets classified Doubtful;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Review and update, within 60 days from the effective date of the Consent Order, its policy to ensure the adequacy of the Banks allowance for loan
and lease losses, which must provide for a review of the Banks allowance for loan and lease losses at least once each calendar quarter;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Submit, within 60 days from the effective date of the Consent Order, a written plan to reduce classified assets, which shall include, among other
things, a reduction of the Banks risk exposure in relationships with assets in excess of $1,000,000 which are criticized as Substandard, Doubtful, or Special Mention;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Revise, within 60 days from the effective date of the Consent Order, its policies and procedures for managing the Banks Adversely Classified
Other Real Estate Owned;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | Not extend any additional credit to any borrower who has a loan or other extension of credit from the Bank that has been charged off or classified, in
whole or in part, Loss or Doubtful and is uncollected. In addition, the Bank may not extend any additional credit to any borrower who has a loan or other extension of credit from the Bank that has been criticized, in whole or
in part, Substandard or Special Mention and is uncollected, unless the Banks board of directors determines that failure to extend further credit to a particular borrower would be detrimental to the best interests of the
Bank;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Perform, within 90 days from the effective date of the Consent Order, a risk segmentation analysis with respect to the Banks Concentrations of
Credit and develop a written plan to systematically reduce any segment of the portfolio that is an undue concentration of credit;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Review, within 60 days from the effective date of the Consent Order and annually thereafter, the Banks loan policies and procedures for adequacy
and, based upon this review, make all appropriate revisions to the policies and procedures necessary to enhance the Banks lending functions and ensure their implementation;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Adopt, within 60 days from the effective date of the Consent Order, an effective internal loan review and grading system to provide for the periodic
review of the Banks loan portfolio in order to identify and categorize the Banks loans, and other extensions of credit which are carried on the Banks books as loans, on the basis of credit quality;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Review and update, within 60 days from the effective date of the Consent Order, its written profit plan to ensure the Bank has a realistic,
comprehensive budget for all categories of income and expense, which must address, at minimum, goals and strategies for improving and sustaining the earnings of the Bank, the major areas in and means by which the Bank will seek to improve the
Banks operating performance, realistic and comprehensive budgets, a budget review process to monitor income and expenses of the Bank to compare actual figure with budgetary projections, the operating assumptions that form the basis for and
adequately support major projected income and expense components of the plan, and coordination of the Banks loan, investment, and operating policies and budget and profit planning with the funds management policy;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Review and update, within 60 days from the effective date of the Consent Order, its written plan addressing liquidity, contingent funding, and asset
liability management;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Eliminate, within 30 days from the effective date of the Consent Order, all violations of law and regulation or contraventions of policy set forth in
the FDICs safety and soundness examination of the Bank in November 2009;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Not accept, renew, or rollover any brokered deposits unless it is in compliance with the requirements of 12 C.F.R. § 337.6(b);
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Limit asset growth to 10% per annum;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------



| |  |  | Not declare or pay any dividends or bonuses or make any distributions of interest, principal, or other sums on subordinated debentures without the
prior approval of the supervisory authorities;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Not offer an effective yield on deposits of more than 75 basis points over the national rates published by the FDIC weekly on its website unless
otherwise specifically permitted by the FDIC. On April 1, 2010 the Bank was notified by the FDIC that it had determined that the geographic areas in which we operate were considered high-rate areas. Accordingly, the Bank is able to offer
interest rates on deposits up to 75 basis points over the prevailing interest rates in our geographic areas; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Furnish, by within 30 days from the effective date of the Consent Order and within 30 days of the end of each quarter thereafter, written progress
reports to the supervisory authorities detailing the form and manner of any actions taken to secure compliance with the Consent Order.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Company intends to take all actions necessary to enable the Bank to comply with the requirements of the Consent Order, and as of the date hereof we have submitted all documentation required as of this
date to the FDIC and State Board. There can be no assurance that the Bank will be able to comply fully with the provisions of the Consent Order, and the determination of our compliance will be made by the FDIC and the State Board. However, we
believe we are currently in compliance with all provisions of the Consent Order except for the requirement to reduce the total amount of our criticized assets at September 30, 2009 by a total of 75% by June 6, 2012. The Consent Order
requires a reduction in criticized assets by specified percentages by certain dates, with the first date being December 6, 2010. As of the date hereof, we have already reduced our criticized assets by more than the amount necessary to meet the
December 6, 2010 deadline. Failure to meet the requirements of the Consent Order could result in additional regulatory requirements, which could ultimately lead to the Bank being taken into receivership by the FDIC.

|Item 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following discussion and analysis presents factors impacting our financial condition as of September 30, 2010 and results of operations and cash flows for the three and nine month periods ended
September 30, 2010. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto
for the year ended December 31, 2009 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for that period. Results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year ending
December 31, 2010 or any future period. Percentage calculations contained herein have been calculated based on actual not rounded results presented herein.

Forward-Looking Statements

This report, including information included or
incorporated by reference in this document, contains statements which constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Forward-looking statements relate to the financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance, and business of our Company. Forward-looking statements are based on many assumptions and estimates and are not guarantees of
future performance. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in any forward-looking statements as they will depend on many factors about which we are unsure including many factors which are beyond our control. The words
may, would, could, should, will, expect, anticipate, predict, project, potential, continue, assume,
believe, intend, plan, forecast, goal, and estimate as well as similar expressions are meant to identify such forward-looking statements. Potential risks and uncertainties
that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in our forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following:



| |  |  | Greater than expected losses could occur due to higher credit losses generally and specifically because losses in the sectors of our loan portfolio
secured by real estate are greater than expected due to economic factors, including declining real estate values, increasing interest rates, increasing unemployment, or changes in payment behavior or other factors,
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Greater than expected losses could occur due to higher credit losses because our loans are concentrated by loan type, industry segment, borrower type,
or location of the borrower or collateral,
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The rate of delinquencies and amounts of loans charged-off,
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The adequacy of the level of our allowance for loan losses and the amount of loan loss provisions required in future periods,
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our ability to complete the sale of our commercial loans held for sale, including that the bids offered will be at the currently recorded balances and
therefore not result in additional writedowns,
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our ability to maintain appropriate levels of capital, including the potential that the regulatory agencies may require higher levels of capital above
the statutory minimums,
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our ability to comply with our Consent Order and potential regulatory actions if we fail to comply,
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our ability to retain key personnel,
| | - |  | ------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our ability to retain our existing customers, including our deposit relationships,
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The rates of loan growth in recent years and the lack of seasoning of a portion of our loan portfolio,
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The amount of our loan portfolio collateralized by real estate, and the weakness in the real estate market,
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Increased funding costs due to market illiquidity, increased competition for funding, and / or increased regulatory requirements with regard to
funding,
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Significant increases in competitive pressure in the banking and financial services industries,
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Changes in the interest rate environment which could reduce anticipated or actual margins,
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Changes in political conditions and the legislative or regulatory environment, including the effect of the recent financial reform legislation on the
banking industry,
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | General economic conditions, either nationally or regionally and especially in our primary service areas, becoming less favorable than expected,
resulting in, among other things, a further deterioration in credit quality,
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Changes occurring in business conditions and inflation,
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Changes in technology,
| | - |  | ----------------------



| |  |  | Changes in deposit flows,
| | - |  | -------------------------



| |  |  | Changes in monetary and tax policies, including confirmation of the income tax refund claims received by the Internal Revenue Service,
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | Potential limitations on our ability to utilize in the future net operating loss carryforwards and built in losses for income tax purposes due to the
Private Placement transaction,
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Changes in accounting principles, policies, or guidelines,
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our ability to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting,
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our reliance on available secondary funding sources such as FHLB advances, Federal Reserve Discount Window borrowings, sales of securities and loans,
and federal funds lines of credit from correspondent banks to meet our liquidity needs,
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Adverse changes in asset quality and resulting credit risk-related losses and expenses,
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Loss of consumer confidence and economic disruptions resulting from terrorist activities or other military actions,
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Changes in the securities markets, and / or
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Other risks and uncertainties detailed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, in Part II,
Item 1A of our Quarterly Report for the quarter ended June 30, 2010, in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and from time to time in our other filings with the SEC.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These risks are exacerbated by the state of national and international financial markets, and we are unable to predict what impact these uncertain market
conditions will have on us. During 2008 and 2009, the capital and credit markets experienced extended volatility and disruption which continue to impact the Company in 2010. There can be no assurance that these unprecedented developments will not
continue to materially and adversely impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations, as well as our ability to raise capital or other funding for liquidity and business purposes.

We have based our forward-looking statements on our current expectations about future events. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in our
forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee that these expectations will be achieved. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or otherwise revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future
events, or otherwise.

Executive Summary of Third
Quarter 2010 Financial Results

Context for the Three Month Period Ended September 30, 2010 and the Company

2009 and 2010 have been very challenging years for the Company, the banking industry, and the U.S. economy in general. In relation to the Company, the
overall economic context for our financial condition and results of operations include the following:



| |  |  | Ongoing financial crisis in the overall U.S. economy that generally started in August 2008 and continued in 2009 and 2010, for which the banking
industry and the Company continue to be adversely affected.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Volatile equity markets that declined significantly during the first half of 2009 and have since begun to improve although daily volatility continues.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Significant stress on the banking industry resulting in significant governmental financial assistance to many financial institutions, extensive
regulatory and congressional scrutiny, and new comprehensive reform legislation, including unknown regulations to be adopted as a result.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | General anxiety on the part of our customers and the general public.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Uncertainty about the future and when the economy will return to normal and questions about what will be the new normal.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Low and uncertain interest rate environment particularly given government intervention in the financial markets, with current expectations of rising
interest rates although the timing is uncertain.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | High levels of unemployment nationally and in our local markets, and uncertainty about when the trend will begin to improve.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Additional context specific to the Company includes the following:



| |  |  | Fast growth from 2004 through the first quarter of 2009, growing total assets 57% during that period that resulted in the Company reaching a natural
maturity/life cycle hump that is typical for banks that reach that asset size. Typical challenges associated with this stage of our life cycle include:
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Stress on our infrastructure requiring investment in the number and expertise of employees and refinement of policies and procedures.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Required investments in technology to invest in the future, and rationalization of the technology investments versus our historical investment in
facilities.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Adapting products and services and related pricing and fees to remain relevant to our current and evolving customer base and competitiveness in the
market place, and development of broader distribution channels for delivery of our products and services.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Application of a more sophisticated risk management approach, including a comprehensive view of risk, processes and procedures, internal and vendor
expertise, and the way we do business.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Executive management succession plan implemented effective July 1, 2009 and resulting organizational changes.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In planning for the retirement of the former Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Chief Executive Officer of the Bank (who also served as the
President, Chief Operating Officer, and Chief Accounting Officer of the Company), the Company hired Samuel L. Erwin in March 2009 and Lee. S. Dixon in May 2009 as senior executive vice presidents. Effective July 1, 2009, the Company named
Mr. Erwin as Chief Executive Officer and President of the Bank and Mr. Dixon as Chief Operating Officer of the Company and the Bank. Subsequently, Mr. Erwin also assumed the title of Chief Executive Officer of the Company on
January 1, 2010, and Mr. Dixon assumed additional responsibilities as Chief Risk Officer of the Company and the Bank in October 2009 and as the Chief Financial Officer of the Company and the Bank as of July 1, 2010.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Messrs. Erwin and Dixon have proven bank turn around and operational capabilities and rapidly developed and implemented the Companys Strategic
Project Plan in June 2009 as summarized below.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Significant deterioration in asset quality during 2009 resulting in a net loss for 2009 which was the first annual net loss in the history of the
Company since the Great Depression in the 1930s. We also incurred quarterly net losses in 2010.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Increased regulatory scrutiny given declining asset quality, financial results and capital position, which resulted in the Bank agreeing to the
issuance of a Consent Order with the banking regulatory agencies in June 2010.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | Strategic repositioning and reduction of the balance sheet to reduce commercial real estate loan concentrations and individually larger and more
complex loans originated during 2004 through 2008, as well as intentional reduction in the amount of higher priced certificates of deposit accounts used to fund the loan growth during that period. Gross loans have decreased $328.8 million from
March 31, 2009 to September 30, 2010. Total traditional and nontraditional deposits increased $8.0 million over the same period through various certificate of deposit and transaction deposit campaigns designed to attract and retain
lower priced deposit accounts.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In light of the above, in 2009, management and the Board of Directors reacted quickly and
defined three strategic initiatives, which are currently summarized as follows:

future 
      Determining the customer of tomorrow and refining our
products, services, and distributions channels to meet their expectations        Adapting to the rapidly changing financial services landscape, including lower earnings due to the low interest rate environment, potential regulatory
restrictions on historical sources of income, and higher compliance costs        Potential listing on the NASDAQ stock exchange |  | Two to five years    

We believe it is critical to focus on all
three strategic initiatives simultaneously to optimize long-term shareholder value. As a result, management and the Board of Directors focused a tremendous amount of time and effort on addressing all three initiatives in 2009 and 2010 with the
overall objectives being: 1) to aggressively deal with our credit quality, earnings and capital issues as quickly as possible and 2) to accelerate into a much shorter time frame the reinvention of The Palmetto Bank that might otherwise
normally take several years to accomplish. While the National Bureau of Economic Research concluded that the recession officially ended in June 2009, the impact of the recession is continuing to be felt by the banking industry and the Company.
Accordingly, our focus has been and continues to be centered on managing through the effects of the recession to position the Company to return to profitability once the economy begins to recover.

The consummation of the Private Placement on October 7, 2010 in which the Company received $103.9 million of gross proceeds is a significant step
forward in the implementation of these strategic initiatives. The Private Placement resulted in the Companys and the Banks capital adequacy ratios exceeding the minimums required to be well-capitalized. As summarized in more detail
below, we are continuing our keen focus on improving credit quality and earnings.

Summary Financial Results and Company Response

The national and local economy and the banking industry continue to deal with the effects of the most pronounced recession in decades. In
South Carolina, unemployment rose significantly throughout 2009 and

into 2010 and is higher than the national average, and residential and commercial real estate projects are depressed with significant deterioration in values. As a result, the impact in our
geographic area and to individual borrowers was severe. As a result of the extended recession, our financial results in the third quarters of 2009 and 2010 were significantly impacted by the following in comparison to our historical financial
results in the third quarter of 2008:



| |  |  | Provision for loan losses totaling $13.1 million and $24.0 million, respectively, in 2010 and 2009 compared to $687 thousand for 2008.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Net loss from writedowns, expenses, operations, and sales of real estate acquired in settlement of loans totaling $5.5 million and $1.5 million in 2010
and 2009, respectively, compared to $28 thousand in 2008.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Foregone interest of $1.2 million and $1.5 million in 2010 and 2009, respectively, compared to none in 2008 on cash invested at the Federal Reserve at
25 basis points to maintain liquidity versus the average yield on our investment securities of 2.34% and 4.80%, respectively.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Higher FDIC insurance premiums totaling $1.8 million and $712 thousand, respectively, in 2010 and 2009, compared to $197 thousand in 2008 due to
industry wide increases in general assessment rates, our voluntary participation in the FDICs Transaction Account Guarantee Program, and our capital classification being below well-capitalized.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Goodwill impairment totaling $3.7 million in 2010.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Higher credit-related expenses for problem asset workout and other expenses to execute the Strategic Project Plan which were not incurred prior to the
third quarter of 2009.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In total, the above events reduced our earnings by approximately $24.3 million and $26.8 million for
the three month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, compared to the same period of 2008. Accordingly, we believe successful completion of the Strategic Project Plan will result in significant improvement to our earnings.

The credit-related costs for banks associated with the recession are significant. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2008 and continuing to
date in 2010, construction, acquisition and development real estate projects have slowed down, guarantors are financially stressed, and increasing credit losses have surfaced. During 2009 and 2010, delinquencies over 90 days increased resulting in
an increase in nonaccrual loans indicating significant credit quality deterioration and probable losses. In particular, loans secured by real estate including acquisition, construction and development projects demonstrated stress given reduced cash
flows of individual borrowers, limited bank financing and credit availability, and slow property sales. This deterioration has manifested itself in our borrowers in several ways: decreases in cash flows from underlying properties supporting the
loans (e.g., slower property sales for development type projects or lower occupancy rates or rental rates for operating properties), decreases in cash flows from the borrowers themselves, increased pressure on guarantors due to illiquid and
diminished personal balance sheets resulting from investing additional personal capital in the projects, and declines in fair values of real estate related assets, resulting in lower cash proceeds from sales or fair values declining to the point
that borrowers are no longer willing to sell the assets at such deep discounts.

This has resulted in a significant increase in the level of
nonperforming assets through March 31, 2010, with a continued elevated level of such assets at September 30, 2010. In addition, many of these loans are collateral dependent real estate loans for which we are required to write down the
loans to fair value less estimated costs to sell with the fair values determined primarily based on third party appraisals. During 2009 and 2010, appraised values decreased significantly, even in comparison to appraisals received when the loans were
originated in 2006 to 2009, and upon reappraisal since origination. As a result, our evaluation of our loan portfolio and allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2010 resulted in net charge-offs of $9.8 million and a provision for loan
losses of $13.1 million during the three month period ended September 30, 2010.

Recent Regulatory Developments

As a result of these circumstances and the examination of the Bank by the FDIC and the State Board (collectively, the Supervisory
Authorities) in November 2009, the Bank agreed to the issuance of the Consent Order with the Supervisory Authorities effective on June 10, 2010. Beginning in October 2009, the Board of Directors and a newly created committee of the Board
of Directors, the Regulatory Oversight Committee, met periodically with the FDIC to receive status reports on their examination, and the Board received the final report of examination in April 2010 and agreed to the Consent Order in June 2010. A
summary of the requirements of the Consent Order and the Banks status on complying with the Consent Order is as follows:

|Furnish, by within 30 days from the effective date of the
Consent Order and within 30 days of the end of each quarter thereafter, written progress reports to the supervisory authorities detailing the form and manner of any actions taken to secure compliance with the Consent Order. |  | We believe we are in compliance with this provision of the Consent Order, and we have
submitted the required progress report to the Supervisory Authorities.                                                                                                                                                                                                                      

We intend to take all actions necessary to enable the
Bank to comply with the requirements of the Consent Order, and as of the date hereof we have submitted all documentation required thus far to the Supervisory Authorities. There can be no assurance that the Bank will be able to comply fully with the
provisions of the Consent Order, and the determination of our compliance will be made by the Supervisory Authorities. However, we believe we are currently in compliance with all provisions of the Consent Order except for the requirement to reduce
the total amount of our criticized assets at September 30, 2009 by a total of 75% by June 6, 2012. The Consent Order requires a reduction in criticized assets by specified percentages by certain dates, with the first date being
December 6, 2010. As of the date hereof, we have already reduced our criticized assets by more than the amount necessary to meet the December 6, 2010 deadline. Failure to meet the requirements of the Consent Order could result in
additional regulatory requirements, which could ultimately lead to the Bank being taken into receivership by the FDIC.

Strategic Project
Plan

In response to the challenging economic environment and our negative financial results and in preparation for a potential formal
agreement from the banking regulatory agencies, in June 2009 the Board of Directors and management adopted and began executing a proactive and aggressive Strategic Project Plan (the Plan) to address the issues related to credit quality,
liquidity, earnings, and capital. Execution of the Plan is being overseen by the special Regulatory Oversight Committee of the Board of Directors, and we have engaged external expertise to assist with its implementation. The Plan contemplated
substantially all of the

requirements of the Consent Order and therefore we believe we have already made substantial progress towards complying with the requirements of the Consent Order. However, certain provision of
the Consent Order required us to submit written plans to the Supervisory Authorities for their review and / or approval, and all provisions of the Consent Order are subject to examination by the Supervisory Authorities in subsequent examinations.

Since June 2009, we have been, and continue to be, keenly focused on executing the Plan which now also reflects the requirements of the
Consent Order. No one can predict the ongoing impact of the recession given its length and severity. However, it is our expectation that our hard work, the eventual improvement in the economy and the real estate markets, and raising additional
capital, will help our borrowers and us weather this storm and continue our road to recovery and return to profitability.

Credit
Quality. Given the negative asset quality trends within our loan portfolio, which began in 2008, accelerated during 2009, and continued into 2010, we have worked aggressively to identify and quantify potential losses and execute plans to reduce
problem assets. The credit quality plan includes, among other things:



| |  |  | Performing detailed loan reviews of our loan portfolio. In May and June 2009, we performed an expanded internal loan review of our nonconsumer loan
portfolio that covered 70% of these loans. In July and August 2009, an independent loan review firm also reviewed 35% of our nonconsumer loan portfolio. In February 2010, we performed another internal loan review of our nonconsumer loan
portfolio that covered $274.4 million in loans. In May 2010, the independent loan review firm reviewed $280.8 million of our nonconsumer loan portfolio. Beginning in September 2010 and continuing into the fourth quarter of 2010 we are performing an
internal loan review of our commercial loans and home equity lines of credit and another external loan review began in October 2010.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | For problem loans identified, we have prepared written workout plans that are borrower specific to determine how best to resolve the loans which could
include restructuring the loans, requesting additional collateral, demanding payment from guarantors, sale of the loans, or foreclosure and sale of the collateral.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We have also increased our monitoring of borrower and industry sector concentrations and are limiting additional credit exposure to these
concentrations.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In July 2009, we hired a new Chief Credit Officer and reevaluated our lending policies and procedures and credit administration function and
implemented significant enhancements. Among other changes, we have reorganized our credit administration function, hired additional internal resources and external consulting assistance, and reorganized our line of business lending roles and
responsibilities including separate designation of a commercial lending business with more direct oversight and clearer accountability.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In April 2010, we hired two additional personnel with expertise in problem asset workout and disposition, and in June 2010 we hired a seasoned
department manager for our Special Assets Department which is now comprised of six individuals.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | We are actively marketing problem assets for sale. Since June 30, 2009, we have sold real estate acquired in settlement of loans aggregating $13.2
million. Subsequent to September 30, 2010, 14 properties with an aggregate net carrying amount of $1.7 million were sold at a gain of $5 thousand. At October 27, 2010, 17 additional properties with an aggregate net carrying amount of $6.3
million were under contract for sale scheduled to close in the fourth quarter of 2010.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In total, at September 30, 2010, our nonperforming assets declined $3.4 million (2.9%) from June 30, 2010, the second consecutive
quarterly decline since we adopted the Plan in June 2009, and in total by 19.2% since the peak at March 31, 2010.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | In September 2010, we made the decision to market for sale commercial loans totaling $90.9 million at September 30, 2010 we have entered into
agreements with two loan sale advisory firms to market $81.4 million of these loans for sale. The sales of the remaining loans totaling $9.5 million are being negotiated for sale directly with potential buyers, of which $7.9 million are currently
under letters of intent. The targeted closing dates for the sales are the fourth quarter of 2010.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Liquidity. In June
2009, we implemented a forward-looking liquidity plan and increased our liquidity monitoring. The liquidity plan includes, among other things:



| |  |  | Implementing proactive customer deposit retention initiatives specific to large deposit customers and our deposit customers in general.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Executing targeted deposit growth and retention campaigns through June 30, 2010 which resulted in retained and new certificates of deposit
aggregating $258.1 million from January 1, 2010 through June 30, 2010. Since June 30, 2010, our deposits have remained stable through our normal growth and retention efforts and therefore we have not utilized any special campaigns.

| |  |  | Evaluating our sources of available financing and identifying additional collateral for pledging for FHLB and Federal Reserve borrowings.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Monitoring our correspondent bank lines of credit.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Accelerating the filing of our 2009 income tax refund claims resulting in refunds received totaling $20.9 million, all of which were received during
the three month period ended March 31, 2010, reduced by $661 thousand as a result of the filing of an amended 2009 federal income tax return in June 2010.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Maintaining cash received primarily from loan and security repayments invested in cash rather than being reinvested in other earning assets.
Maintaining this cash balance has reduced our interest income by $1.2 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2010 when compared with investing these funds at the average yield of 2.34% on our investment securities, since we are
retaining a higher level of cash instead of reinvesting this cash in higher yielding assets. Given the consummation of our Private Placement on October 7, 2010, we have begun redeploying this cash balance into investment securities and we may
also repay FHLB advances as they mature in 2011.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At October 27, 2010, including the proceeds received in the Private
Placement, funding sources included cash invested at the Federal Reserve totaling $307.6 million and our correspondent bank line of credit totaling $5.0 million.

Capital. At September 30, 2010, our total risk-based capital ratio, Tier 1 leverage ratio, and Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio were below the well-capitalized regulatory minimum thresholds.
However, on October 7, 2010, we consummated the Private Placement resulting in the Companys and the Banks capital ratios exceeding the minimum requirements to be classified as well-capitalized. In addition, to preserve our capital,
we have:



| |  |  | Not paid a dividend on our common stock since the first quarter of 2009.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Reduced our loan portfolio by $328.8 million since March 31, 2009.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Evaluated other capital saving alternatives such as asset sales and reducing outstanding credit commitments.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Issued unsecured convertible debt from the Company in March 2010 of $380 thousand, the proceeds of which were contributed to the Bank as a capital
contribution. On October 7, 2010, as a result of the Private Placement, these notes were converted into common stock of the Company.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Earnings. We have been implementing an earnings plan that is focused on improvement through a combination of revenue increases and expense reductions including assistance from external consulting
firms to review our current and potential new products and services and related rates and fees, and to identify process and efficiency improvements.



| |  |  | With respect to net interest income, we have implemented risk-based loan pricing and interest rate floors on renewed and new loans meeting certain
criteria. At September 30, 2010, loans aggregating $217.5 million had interest rate floors, of which $201.7 million had floors greater than or equal to 5%. In June and July 2010, we began loan specials intended to generate additional loan
volume for residential mortgage, auto, credit card, consumer, and commercial loans. In light of the current low interest rate environment, we have also reduced the interest rates paid on our deposit accounts. Given expectations for rising interest
rates, we have also borrowed longer-term advances from the FHLB and extended maturities on certain CD specials to lock in the current low interest rates.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Regarding noninterest income, we are evaluating other noninterest sources of income. For example, in March 2010, we introduced a new checking account,
MyPal checking, and a new savings account, Smart Savings, both of which provide noninterest income resulting from service charges or debit card transactions. We have also evaluated the profitability of all of our pre-existing checking accounts and
in October 2010 upgraded a large number of unprofitable checking accounts to the MyPal account. We are also revising our existing fees and implementing new fees, with various implementation dates generally between October 1, 2010 and
March 31, 2011.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Regarding noninterest expenses, we have identified over $2.5 million of specific noninterest expense reductions to be realized in 2009 and 2010, and
are continuing to review other expense areas for additional reductions with assistance from a consulting firm that specializes in process and efficiency reviews. These expense reductions will be partially offset by the higher level of credit-related
costs incurred due to legal, consulting, and carrying costs related to our higher level of nonperforming assets.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Lastly, we are critically evaluating each of our businesses to determine their contribution to our financial performance and their relative risk /
return relationship. Based on the evaluation to date, on March 31, 2010, we entered into a referral and services agreement with Global Direct Payments, Inc. (Global Direct) related to our merchant services business which resulted in
a gross payment

| | to the Company of $786 thousand, which is included in Merchant services noninterest income in the amount of $550 thousand, net of transaction costs, for the nine month period ended
September 30, 2010.

Summary

In summary, during the three month period ended September 30, 2010, we continued to be impacted by the negative financial conditions of our borrowers and the economy in general, but we have also made
substantial progress on the execution of the Strategic Project Plan adopted in June 2009. We completed a significant component of the Plan by consummation of the Private Placement on October 7, 2010. We believe that raising capital, combined
with an improving economy and our continued focus on credit quality and earnings improvements, will accelerate our road to recovery and return to profitability in the post-recession environment. We believe that we may return to profitability, on a
quarterly basis, at some point during 2012. However, as discussed in this report, our quarterly performance is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, and we can provide no assurances regarding when or if
we will return to profitability.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our significant accounting policies are fundamental to understanding our financial condition and results of operations because some accounting policies
require the use of estimates and assumptions that may impact the value of assets or liabilities and financial results. Accounting for these critical areas requires subjective and complex judgments and could be subject to revision as new information
becomes available. Our policies governing the accounting for our allowance for loan losses and the related reserve for unfunded commitments, mortgage-servicing rights portfolio, goodwill, real estate acquired in settlement of loans, the realization
of our deferred tax asset, defined benefit pension plan, the valuation of our common stock, and the determination of fair value of financial instruments were determined to be critical as reported in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2009. On an annual basis, management, in conjunction with our independent registered public accounting firm, discusses the critical accounting estimates with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. For additional information
regarding our critical accounting policies and estimates, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents increased $78.4 million (41.7%) at September 30, 2010 over December 31, 2009 primarily as a result of maintaining our excess cash with the Federal Reserve to
provide liquidity, notwithstanding the negative impact to our interest income since we only earn 25 basis points on our deposits with the Federal Reserve versus investing this cash in higher earning assets. For the three month period ended
September 30, 2010, the difference between the interest earned on the cash at the Federal Reserve at 25 basis points and the interest that could have been earned by investing this cash in the securities portfolio at the average yield on the
portfolio of 2.34% was $1.2 million. Our plan is to begin redeploying this cash balance over the next few quarters by investing in investment securities and / or paying down FHLB advances as they mature in 2011. We believe that redeploying this cash
will improve our net interest margin.

Concentrations and Restrictions. In an effort to manage our associated risks, we generally do
not sell federal funds to other financial institutions because they are essentially uncollateralized loans. Management regularly evaluates the risk associated with the counterparties to these potential transactions to ensure that we would not expose
ourselves to any significant risks with regard to our cash and cash equivalent balances.

Cash and cash equivalents were pledged as collateral
and therefore restricted at the dates indicated (in thousands).

modifications in its collateral practices and tolerance levels, one merchant credit card company released to the Company $386 thousand of pledged collateral.

Investment Activities

General. The primary objective of the Companys
management of the investment portfolio is to maintain a portfolio of high quality, highly liquid investments yielding competitive returns. We are required under federal regulations to maintain adequate liquidity to ensure safe and sound operations.
We maintain investment balances based on a continuing assessment of cash flows, the level of loan production, current interest rate risk strategies, and the assessment of the potential future direction of market interest rate changes. Investment
securities differ in terms of default, interest rate, liquidity, and expected rate of return risk.

Composition. The following table
summarizes the composition of our investment securities available for sale portfolio at the dates indicated (dollars in thousands).

Average balances of investment securities available for sale increased to $132.2 million during the three month period ended
September 30, 2010 from $115.4 million during the same period of 2009. This increase was the result of purchases in July 2010 of U.S. Treasury and federal agencies purchased to acquire additional securities to pledge as collateral for FHLB
borrowings. Offsetting the increase, during March 2010, we evaluated and executed several capital preservation transactions, one of which was a sale of investment securities available for sale. Eleven collateralized mortgage obligations, three other
mortgage-backed securities, and three state and municipal securities totaling $40.2 million were sold during March 2010 resulting in a net gain on sale totaling $8 thousand. The proceeds from the sales were reinvested in GNMA collateralized
mortgage obligations and U.S. Treasury and federal agencies with an expected duration of two years. These transactions were executed as part of our repositioning the investment securities portfolio in light of the current interest rate environment,
including expectation of rising interest rates over at least the next 18 months. In addition, the transactions resulted in an improved regulatory capital position as the securities sold were in higher risk weighted asset categories compared to the
securities purchased.

The fair value of the investment securities available for sale portfolio represented 9.4% of total assets at
September 30, 2010 and 8.4% of total assets at December 31, 2009.

In October 2010, we purchased additional state and municipal,
collateralized mortgage obligations, and other mortgage-backed investment securities aggregating approximately $46 million.

Gross unrealized losses decreased $1.9 million from December 31, 2009 to September 30, 2010, primarily within the
collateralized mortgage obligation sector of the investment securities portfolio. Eleven collateralized mortgage obligations were sold during the nine month period ended September 30, 2010. The gross unrealized losses on the sold collateralized
mortgage obligations totaled $2.0 million at December 31, 2009.

Fair values of the investment securities portfolio could decline in the
future if the underlying performance of the collateral for collateralized mortgage obligations or other securities deteriorates and the levels do not provide sufficient protection for contractual principal and interest. As a result, there is risk
that additional other-than-temporary impairments may occur in the future particularly in light of the current economic environment.

Ratings. The following table summarizes Moodys ratings, by segment, of the investment securities available for sale based on fair value, at
September 30, 2010. An Aaa rating is based not only on the credit of the issuer, but may also include consideration of the structure of the securities and the credit quality of the collateral.

Of the state and municipal investment securities not rated or with withdrawn ratings by Moodys at September 30,
2010, 16% were rated AA+ by Standard and Poors ratings, 52% were rated AA, 18% were rated AA-, and 14%, or $568 thousand, were not rated by Standard and Poors ratings.

Maturities. The weighted average contractual life of investment securities available for sale was 2.9 years at September 30, 2010. Since 39%, based on amortized cost, of the portfolio is
collateralized mortgage obligations or other mortgage-backed securities, the expected remaining maturity may differ from contractual maturity because borrowers generally have the right to prepay obligations before the underlying mortgages mature.

Pledged. Investments securities were pledged as collateral for the following at the dates indicated (in thousands).

Lending Activities

General. Loans continue to be the largest component of our assets. During the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, gross loans declined $212.7 million (20.5%), including the transfer of
$90.9 million commercial real estate loans to the held for sale portfolio, as we actively seek to reduce our commercial real estate loan portfolio to improve our credit quality and preserve capital. Based on our risk assessment of borrowers, we also
implemented risk-based loan pricing and interest rate floors, or minimum interest rates, both at origination and renewal. In addition, we are proactively addressing the reduction of our nonperforming assets through restructurings, charge-offs, and
sales.

Commercial Loans Held for Sale. In September 2010 we made the decision to market for sale commercial real estate loans totaling
$90.9 million at September 30, 2010, and we have entered into agreements with two loan sale advisory firms to market $81.4 million of these loans for sale. The sales of the remaining loans totaling $9.5 million are being negotiated for sale
directly with potential buyers, of which $7.9 million are currently under letters of intent. The targeted closing dates for the sales are the fourth quarter of 2010.

Commercial loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, and a valuation allowance of $2.4 million is recorded against the loans held for sale resulting in a net carrying amount in
the Consolidated Balance Sheet of $88.5 million. Of the total, $61.7 million were loans individually evaluated for impairment that were transferred to loans held for sale at their recorded book values, net of their related specifically identified
allowances for loan losses. The remaining loans were transferred at their estimated fair values, with the differences between their recorded book values recorded as a charge to the allowance for loan losses and carried over as a valuation allowance.

Of the aggregate balance of commercial loans held for sale, 98.4% are commercial real estate based on FDIC code.

generally valued at fair value based primarily on third party appraisals. For these loans, we will evaluate the bids as they are received and may or may not accept the bids based on the prices offered and / or other considerations. There can be no
assurances that the loans will be sold, or that the bids offered will be at the currently recorded balances.

Loans included in both of the preceding loan composition tables are net of participations sold. Participations sold totaled
$12.5 million (2 loans) at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009. With regard to participations sold, we serve as the lead bank and are therefore responsible for certain administration and other management functions as agent to the
participating banks. We are in active discussions with the participating banks to keep them informed of the status of these loans and determine loan workout plans.

Mortgage loans serviced for the benefit of others amounted to $425.5 million and $426.6 million at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, and are not included in our
Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Pledged. To borrow from the FHLB, members must pledge collateral to secure advances and letters of
credit. Acceptable collateral includes, among other types of collateral, a variety of residential, multifamily, home equity lines and second mortgages, and commercial loans. $364.7 million and $407.0 million of gross loans were pledged to
collateralize FHLB advances and letters of credit at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, of which $121.7 million and $162.0 million, respectively, was available as lendable collateral.

##### Table of Contents



On September 30, 2010, $12.3
million of loans was pledged as collateral to cover the various Federal Reserve System services that are being utilized by the Company. The maximum maturity for potential borrowings is overnight. Any future potential borrowings from the Federal
Reserve Discount Window would be at the secondary credit rate and must be used for operational issues, and the Federal Reserve has the discretion to deny approval of borrowing requests. We would be required to pledge collateral for such secondary
borrowing.

Concentrations. General. During 2009 and continuing into 2010, we increased our monitoring of borrower and industry sector
concentrations and are limiting additional credit exposure to these concentrations, in particular the segments of our loan portfolio secured by commercial real estate. In addition, we are proactively executing loan workout plans with a particular
focus on reducing our concentrations in these segments. In addition, we are evaluating the potential sale, individually or in bulk, of performing and nonperforming commercial loans. In September 2010, we made the decision to market for sale
commercial loans totaling $90.9 million at September 30, 2010, of which 98.4% ($89.4 million) are commercial real estate loans. Sale of these loans, if completed, would significantly reduce our concentration in commercial real estate.

Asset Quality. Given the negative credit quality trends which began in 2008, accelerated during 2009, and
have continued into 2010, we have performed extensive analysis of our nonconsumer loan portfolio, with particular focus on commercial real estate loans. The analyses included internal and external loan reviews that required detailed, written
analyses for the loans reviewed and vetting of the risk rating, accrual status, and collateral valuation of the loans by the loan officers, our senior management team, external consultants, and an external loan review firm. Of particular
significance is that these reviews have currently identified 38 specifically identified borrower relationships (51 individual loans) that have resulted in $65.3 million (65%) of the $100.5 million of net charge-offs and writedowns on foreclosed
assets recorded in the past seven quarters. In general, these loans, which in the aggregate were carried on our Consolidated Balance Sheet at $74.2 million at September 30, 2010, have one or more of the following common characteristics:



| |  |  | Individually larger commercial real estate loans originated in 2004 through 2008 that were larger and more complex loans than historically originated
by the Company.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Out-of-market loans, participated loans purchased from other banks, or brokered loans brought to us by loan brokers, which were generally to
non-customers of the Company for whom we generally had no pre-existing banking relationship.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Concentrated originations in commercial real estate, including acquisition development and construction loans, by loan officers who did not have the
level of specialized expertise necessary to more effectively underwrite and manage these types of loans.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At
September 30, 2010, the remaining unpaid principal balance for this pool of loans comprises 55% of our total problem assets (all loans individually evaluated for impairment and real estate acquired in settlement of loans greater than $1
million). In addition, the loss rate on this pool of loans for the seven quarters ended September 30, 2010 has been significantly higher than the loss rate on the remainder of the loan portfolio.

In general, our entire commercial real
estate loan portfolio has been impacted by the challenging economic environment in 2008, 2009, and 2010. However, this pool of loans is the primary contributor to our deteriorated asset quality, charge-offs, and resulting net loss over the past
seven quarters. In addition, this pool of loans has exhibited a loss given default much higher than the remainder of the loan portfolio that is comprised of in-market loans to ongoing customers of the Company that were underwritten by loan officers
of the Company using our normal credit underwriting standards. Accordingly, as we evaluate the credit quality of the remaining loan portfolio, we do not currently believe that the higher loss rate incurred on this particular pool of loans is
indicative of the loss rate to be incurred on the remainder of the loan portfolio.

As part of the credit quality plan, to continue to address
the impact of the economic environment on our loan portfolio, we are continuing our detailed review of the loan portfolio and are focused on executing detailed loan workout plans for all of our problem loans led by a team of seasoned commercial
lenders and using external loan workout consulting expertise. It is clear that many of our borrowers are continuing to face financial stress manifesting itself in the following ways:



| |  |  | Cash flows from the underlying properties supporting the loans decreased,
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Personal cash flows from the borrowers themselves and guarantors under pressure due to illiquid and diminished personal balance sheets resulting from
investing additional personal capital in the projects, and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Fair values of real estate related assets declining, resulting in lower cash proceeds from sales or fair values declining to the point that borrowers
are no longer willing to sell the assets at such deep discounts.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We also continue to review our lending policies and
procedures and credit administration function. To this end, during 2009 and 2010 we implemented several enhancements as follows:



| |  |  | Construction draws: In March 2009, we centralized the oversight and disbursement of construction draws to contractors working for borrowers, and, in
October 2009, we hired a construction draw manager to review advance requests before funds are advanced to borrowers.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Loan Policy: In June 2009, October 2009, and July 2010 we amended our loan policy to, among other changes, reduce lending limit approval
authorities, prohibit out-of-market loans to borrowers for which we do not have a previously existing relationship, and prohibit brokered loans.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Credit Administration: In July 2009, we hired a new Chief Credit Officer who brings over 25 years of credit administration, loan review, and credit
policy experience to the Company; in August 2009 we reassigned two commercial lenders to credit analysts in the Credit Administration department; and, in September 2009, we hired an additional Credit Administration executive.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Special Assets: In June 2009, we reassigned a senior Credit Administrator; in August and September 2009, we engaged two external workout consultants
(who have since completed their engagements); in November 2009, we reassigned a commercial lender; in April 2010, we hired two experienced special assets professionals, and in June 2010 we hired a seasoned department leader to manage our Special
Assets Department. This department is now comprised of six people and these internal personnel and external consultants have been focused exclusively on accelerated resolution of our problem assets.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Training: During the first nine months of 2010, we conducted additional training including external specialists in the areas of problem loan workout
and negotiating skills, analysis of personal financial statements and business tax returns, cash flow analysis, perfecting security interests in collateral, and appraisals.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At September 30, 2010, nonperforming assets decreased $3.4 million (2.9%) from June 30, 2010, which is the second consecutive quarterly decline since we adopted our Strategic Project Plan
in June 2009, and a total decline of 19.2% from the peak at March 31, 2010. In addition, the volume of loans placed on nonaccrual status the past two quarters has declined. However, we continue to have a high risk loan portfolio given the
concentration in commercial real estate and the number of individually large criticized loans.

Loans placed in nonaccrual status during 2010 resulted primarily from loans becoming delinquent on contractual payments due to deterioration in the financial condition of the borrowers or guarantors such
that payment in full of principal or interest was not expected due to personal cash flows from the borrowers and guarantors being inadequate to service the loans, interest reserves on the loans being depleted, a decrease in operating cash flows from
the underlying properties supporting the loans, or a decline in fair values of the collateral resulting in lower cash proceeds from property sales.

Twenty-six loans with a balance at September 30, 2010 greater than $1 million comprised 62% of our nonaccrual loans at September 30, 2010. The following table summarizes the composition of these
loans by collateral type (dollars in thousands).

Additionally, four of these loans (18% based on the principal balance at September 30, 2010) were purchased
participations and six of these loans (23% based on the principal balance at September 30, 2010) were out-of-market loans. In 2009, we amended our loan policy to preclude originating any new loans of these kinds.

While a loan is in nonaccrual status, cash received is applied to the principal balance. Additional interest income of $962 thousand and $3.2 million
would have been reported during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010, respectively, had loans classified as nonaccrual during the period performed in accordance with their original terms. As a result, our earnings did not
include this interest income.

We initially record a foreclosed asset at fair value when it is transferred from loans to real estate acquired in settlement
of loans, generally based on a third party appraisal, with any difference between the recorded book value of the loan and the fair value recorded as a charge-off to the allowance for loan losses. Subsequently, we normally obtain an updated appraisal
on an annual basis and record any difference between the carrying value and the revised fair value less costs to sell as a provision charged to expense. During 2009 and 2010, given the significant slow down in commercial real estate sales activity
and other factors, appraised values continue to decline from values received at the time of foreclosure and upon reappraisal after foreclosure.

The following table summarizes the Real estate acquired in settlement of loans portfolio, by FDIC code, at September 30, 2010 (in thousands).

Four individual properties greater than $1 million comprised 37% of our real estate acquired in settlement of loans
portfolio at September 30, 2010. Of the balance of these properties, 24% were hotel properties, 18% were residential development properties, 15% were commercial lots and 43% were retirement center properties. Additionally, 67% of these
properties were participations. Three of the four were the result of out-of-market loans.

These properties are being actively marketed with
the primary objective of liquidating the collateral at a level which most accurately approximates fair value and allows recovery of as much of the unpaid principal balance as possible upon the sale of the property in a reasonable period of time. As
a result, loan charge-offs were recorded prior to or upon foreclosure to writedown the loans to estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell. For some assets, additional writedowns have been taken based on receipt of updated third party
appraisals for which appraised values continue to decline. Based on currently available valuation information, the carrying value of these assets is believed to be representative of their fair value less estimated costs to sell although there can be
no assurance that the ultimate proceeds from the sale of these assets will be equal to or greater than the carrying values particularly in the current real estate environment and the continued downward trend in third party appraised values.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2010, we sold 28 properties with an aggregate net carrying amount of $6.7 million in total real
estate acquired in settlement of loans sales at a net gain of $318 thousand.

Subsequent to September 30, 2010, 14 properties with an
aggregate net carrying amount of $1.7 million were sold at a gain of $5 thousand. At October 27, 2010, 17 additional properties with an aggregate net carrying amount of $6.3 million were under contract for sale scheduled to close in the fourth
quarter of 2010.

We are actively addressing the issue of our increase in nonperforming assets and will continue to be aggressive in working
to resolve these issues as quickly as possible. For problem assets identified, we prepared written workout plans that are borrower specific to determine how best to resolve the loans which could include restructuring the loans, requesting additional
collateral, demanding payment from guarantors, sale of the loans, or foreclosure and sale of the collateral. However, given the nature of the projects related to such loans and the distressed values within the real estate market, immediate
resolution in all cases is not

expected. Therefore, it is reasonable to expect that current negative asset quality trends may continue for coming periods when compared to historical periods. As necessary, carrying values of
these assets may require additional adjustment for further declines in estimated fair values.

Troubled Debt Restructurings. Troubled debt
restructurings are loans which have been restructured from their original contractual terms (for example, reduction in contractual interest rate). As part of the determination of our individual loan workout plans, we may restructure loans to assist
borrowers facing cash flow challenges in the current economic environment to facilitate ultimate repayment of the loan. At September 30, 2010, the principal balance of troubled debt restructurings, in gross loans and commercial loans held for
sale, totaled $33.5 million, of which three loans totaling $13.7 million have been transferred to commercial loans held for sale. At December 31, 2009, the principal balance of troubled debt restructurings totaled $14.6 million.

Historically, we have not split loans into two legally separate loans. However, at September 30, 2010, we had four loans that had been legally split
into separate loans (an A/B loan structure), with the B loans accounted for as troubled debt restructures. Restructuring these loans into legally separate loans did not result in any charge-offs and all of the loans are currently performing in
accordance with their terms. The aggregate balances of the A and B loans at September 30, 2010 were $8.3 million and $12.9 million, respectively.

Eight individual loans greater than $1 million comprised 81% of our troubled debt restructurings at September 30, 2010. One of the loans experienced rate concessions, two experienced term
concessions, and five experienced rate and term concessions. At September 30, 2010, all are performing as expected under the new terms.

A troubled debt restructuring can be removed from this classification in years after the restructuring if both of the following conditions exist: the
restructuring agreement specifies an interest rate equal to or greater than the rate that the creditor was willing to accept at the time of the restructuring for a new loan with comparable risk, and the loan is not impaired based on the terms
specified by the restructuring agreement. For the three month period ended September 30, 2010, three loans with a carrying value of $1.7 million were removed from this classification.

Potential Problem Loans. Potential problem loans consist of commercial loans not already classified as nonaccrual that are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the
borrower(s) or of the collateral pledged, if any, have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt, and are characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain some loss of the deficiencies are not
corrected. Management monitors these loans closely and reviews performance on a regular basis. As of September 30, 2010, potential problem loans totaled $135.6 million, an $11.9 million decrease from the peak amount at June 30, 2010.

Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses represents an amount that we believe will be adequate to absorb probable
losses as of a specific period of time inherent in our loan portfolio. Assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is a process that requires considerable judgment. Our judgment in determining the adequacy of the allowance is
based on evaluations of the collectability of loans, including consideration of factors such as the balance of impaired loans, the quality, mix, and size of our overall loan portfolio, economic conditions that may impact the overall loan portfolio
or an individual borrowers ability to repay, the amount and quality of collateral securing the loans, our historical loan loss experience, and borrower and collateral specific considerations for loans individually evaluated for
impairment.

Our allowance for loan losses totaled $29.4 million at September 30, 2010, $28.4 million at June 30, 2010, $28.4 million
at March 31, 2010, and $24.1 million at December 31, 2009, representing 3.55%, 2.93%, 2.81%, and 2.31% of gross loans, respectively. The increasing coverage percentage is a function of an increasing allowance for loan losses and decreasing
loan portfolio. The higher than historical levels of the coverage ratio are a reflection of our more recent charge-off history and higher inherent risk in the loan portfolio.

The aggregate reported balance of the allowance for loan losses, including the valuation allowance on commercial loans held for sale, increased from June 30, 2010 to September 30, 2010 by $3.3
million. For the quarter ended September 30, 2010, the provision for loan losses covered net charge-offs for the quarter and an incremental amount recorded primarily for three loans added in the third quarter to the list of loans individually
evaluated for impairment. Excluding the valuation allowance reclassified against the commercial loans held for sale, the allowance for loan losses was relatively consistent with that recorded at June 30, 2010.

The September 30, 2010 allowance
for loan losses, and, therefore indirectly the provision for loan losses for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010, was determined based on the following specific factors, though not intended to be an all inclusive list:



| |  |  | The impact of the ongoing depressed overall economic environment, including within our geographic market,

| |  |  | The cumulative impact of the extended duration of this economic deterioration on our borrowers, in particular commercial real estate loans for which we
have a heavy concentration,

| |  |  | The asset quality trends in our loan portfolio, including a high level of nonaccrual loans at September 30, 2010 (although nonaccrual loans
decreased at September 30, 2010, the second consecutive quarterly decrease since the peak at March 31, 2010),
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The trend and elevated level of the historical loan loss rates within our loan portfolio,

| |  |  | The results of our internal and external loan reviews during 2010, and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Our individual impaired loan analysis which identified:
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Continued stress on borrowers given increasing lack of liquidity and limited bank financing and credit availability, and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Continued downward trends in appraised values and market assumptions used to value real estate dependent loans.

In addition to loans charged-off in
their entirety in the ordinary course of business, included within loans charged-off for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010 were $23.9 million in gross loan charge-offs relating to loans individually evaluated for impairment. The
determination was made to take partial charge-offs on certain collateral dependent loans based on the status of the underlying real estate projects or our expectation that these loans would be foreclosed on and we would take possession of the
collateral. The loan charge-offs were recorded to writedown the loans to the fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell generally based on fair values from third party appraisals.

We analyze individual loans within the portfolio and make allocations to the allowance for loan losses based on each individual loans specific
factors and other circumstances that impact the collectability of the loan. The population of loans evaluated to be potential impaired loans includes all troubled debt restructures and loans with interest reserves, as well as significant
individual loans classified as doubtful or on

nonaccrual status. At September 30, 2010, we had two loans totaling $2.8 million with interest reserves that, based on our analysis, were considered impaired. Of this balance, one loan
totaling $1.4 million was also a troubled debt restructuring.

In situations where a loan is determined to be impaired (primarily because it
is probable that all principal and interest due according to the terms of the loan agreement will not be collected as scheduled), the loan is excluded from the general reserve calculation described below and is evaluated individually for
impairment. The impairment analysis is based on the determination of the most probable source of repayment which is typically liquidation of the underlying collateral but may also include discounted future cash flows or, in rare cases, the
market value of the loan itself. At September 30, 2010, $82.7 million of our loans evaluated individually for impairment, including commercial loans held for sale, were valued based on liquidation of collateral, $18.4 million were valued based
on discounted future cash flows, and $6.3 million were valued based on a loans observable market price.

Generally, for larger impaired
loans valued based on liquidation of collateral, current appraisals performed by Company approved third-party appraisers are the basis for estimating the current fair value of the collateral. However, in situations where a current appraisal is
not available, we use the best available information (including recent appraisals for similar properties, communications with qualified real estate professionals, information contained in reputable trade publications, and other observable market
data) to estimate the current fair value. The estimated costs to sell the property, if not already included in the appraisal, are then deducted from the appraised value to arrive at the net realizable value of the loan used to calculate the
loans specific reserve.

We calculate our general allowance by
applying our historical loss factors to each sector of the loan portfolio. For consistency of comparison on a quarterly basis, we utilize a five-year lookback period when computing historical loss rates. However, given the increase in charge-offs
beginning in 2009, we also utilized a three-year lookback period at September 30, 2010 for computing historical loss rates as another reference point in determining the allowance for loan losses.

We adjust these historical loss percentages for qualitative environmental factors derived from macroeconomic indicators and other
factors. Qualitative factors we considered in the determination of the September 30, 2010 allowance for loan losses include pervasive factors that generally impact borrowers across the loan portfolio (such as unemployment and consumer
price index) and factors that have specific implications to particular loan portfolios (such as residential home sales or commercial development). Factors evaluated may include changes in delinquent, nonaccrual and troubled debt restructured loan
trends,

trends in risk grades and net loans charged-off, concentrations of credit, competition and legal and regulatory requirements, trends in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, national and
local economic and business conditions, collateral valuations, the experience and depth of lending management, lending policies and procedures, underwriting standards and practices, the quality of loan review systems and degree of oversight by the
Board of Directors, peer comparisons, and other external factors. The general reserve calculated using the historical loss rates and qualitative factors is then combined with the specific allowance on loans individually evaluated for impairment to
determine the total allowance for loan losses.

Overall, the aggregate allowance for loan losses, including the valuation allowance on commercial loans held for sale,
coverage ratio increased from 2.93% to 3.45% of gross loans and commercial loans held for sale from June 30, 2010 to September 30, 2010. Based on the overall trends in our asset quality, loan portfolio, and economic factors, some of which
offset one another, we believed it was appropriate for the provision for loan losses to cover net charge-offs in the third quarter 2010 and incremental specific reserves primarily on three loans individually analyzed for impairment that were added
to the list in the third quarter.

Excluding commercial loans held for sale and the related valuation allowance, the allowance for loan losses
increased from $28.8 million, or 2.93% of gross loans, at June 30, 2010 to $29.3 million, or 3.55% of gross loans, at September 30, 2010. The increased coverage ratio resulted from the increase in the allowance for loan losses primarily
resulting from the higher allowance on loans individually evaluated for impairment and the decrease in the gross loan portfolio.

Portions of the allowance for loan losses may be allocated for specific loans or portfolio segments. However, the entire
allowance for loan losses is available for any loan that, in managements judgment, should be charged-off. While management utilizes the best judgment and information available to it, the ultimate adequacy of the allowance for loan losses
depends on a variety of factors beyond the Companys control, including the performance of the Companys loan portfolio, the economy, changes in interest rates, and the view of the regulatory authorities toward loan classifications.

In addition to the Companys portfolio review process, various regulatory agencies periodically review the Companys allowance for
loan losses. These agencies may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance for loan losses based on their judgments and information available to them at the time of their examinations. While the Company uses available information to
recognize inherent losses on loans, future adjustments to the allowance for loan losses may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions and other factors and the impact of such changes and other factors on our borrowers.

We believe that the allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2010 is appropriate and adequate to cover probable inherent losses in the loan
portfolio. However, underlying assumptions 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 was not known to management at
the time of the issuance of the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements. Therefore, managements assumptions may or may not prove valid. Thus, there can be no assurance that loan losses in future periods, including potential
incremental losses resulting from the sale of the commercial loans held for sale, will not exceed the current allowance for loan losses amount or that future increases in the allowance for loan losses will not be required. Additionally, no assurance
can be given that managements ongoing evaluation of the loan portfolio, in light of changing economic conditions and other relevant factors, will not require significant future additions to the allowance for loan losses, thus adversely
impacting the Companys business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

Premises and equipment, net

Premises and equipment, net decreased by $1.1 million (3.8%) during the nine month period ended September 30, 2010. As part of
our earnings plan to improve our overall financial performance, we reduced several perquisites, including elimination in 2010 of all bank-owned automobiles provided to officers. Bank automobiles with a net book value of $270 thousand were sold at a
loss of $21 thousand during the first and second quarters of 2010.

##### Table of Contents



In June 2010, we sold one vacant bank
owned branch with a net book value of $46 thousand at a gain of $14 thousand. At September 30, 2010, another vacant branch facility with a net book value of $259 thousand is listed for sale and included within the Other assets financial
statement line item in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Goodwill

Goodwill of $3.7 million resulted from past business combinations from 1988 through 1999. We perform our annual impairment testing as of June 30 each year. However, due to the overall adverse
economic environment and the negative impact on the banking industry as a whole, including the impact to the Company resulting in net losses and a decline in market capitalization based on our common stock price, we also performed an impairment test
of our goodwill at September 30, 2010.

Our common stock is not listed on an exchange or any over-the-counter service. Thus, there is
currently no public trading market of our common stock, and private trading of our common stock has been limited. In addition, buyers and sellers may privately negotiate transactions in our common stock for which we are not aware of the traded
price. Since there is not an established market for our common stock, we may not be aware of all prices at which our common stock has been traded. Accordingly, we determine the value of our common stock based on the last five trades of the stock
facilitated by the Company through the Private Trading System on our website.

While there were trades in our common stock in the first and
second quarters of 2010 through the Private Trading System, there were not any trades through the Private Trading System since the announcement of the Private Placement in May 2010. The Private Placement was consummated on October 7, 2010
pursuant to which the Company issued 39,975,980 million shares of common stock at $2.60 per share. This per share issue price was negotiated by the Company at arms length with the investors and was supported by a fairness opinion from the
investment banking firm engaged by the Companys Board of Directors, including a comparison to common stock prices as a percentage of book value for publicly traded banks with similar asset quality and financial condition of the Company, and in
comparison to recent merger and acquisition transactions. Accordingly, since the Private Placement was consummated prior to the issuance of our September 30, 2010 financial statements, we believe it was appropriate to consider the $2.60 issue
price in our goodwill impairment evaluation at September 30, 2010.

The first step of the goodwill impairment evaluation was performed by
comparing the fair value of our reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. Since the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeded its fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test was performed to measure the amount
of impairment loss. The second step of the goodwill impairment test compared the implied fair value of our reporting unit goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. Since the carrying amount of reporting unit goodwill exceeded the implied
fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss was recognized in an amount equal to that excess. The evaluation at September 30, 2010 indicated that the carrying value of the Companys goodwill exceeded the fair value and resulted in
a third quarter noncash charge of $3.7 million, eliminating the goodwill as an asset on the Companys Consolidated Balance Sheet. This charge had no effect on the liquidity, regulatory capital, or daily operations of the Company and was
recorded as a component of noninterest expense on the Consolidated Statement of Income (Loss).

No impairment loss was recognized at
December 31, 2009.

Deferred Tax Asset

As of September 30, 2010, net deferred tax assets totaling $13.2 million are recorded in the Companys Consolidated Balance Sheet. As of that date, we determined that $351 thousand of our
net deferred tax assets are realizable based primarily on an available refund from net operating loss carryback against income taxes previously paid in 2008, and $12.8 million is supported by tax planning strategies and projections of future taxable
income. Accordingly, no valuation allowance is recorded against net deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2010.

In addition, the
Private Placement consummated on October 7, 2010 is considered a change in control under the Internal Revenue Service rules. Accordingly, with the assistance of third party specialists we are in the

process of determining the fair values of our assets for purposes of evaluating any potential limitations or deferrals of our ability to utilize in the future the net operating losses incurred
through the consummation date and / or any built in losses as of the consummation date. Any such limitation or deferrals could result in the need to record a valuation allowance against all or a portion of our deferred tax assets. We expect to have
our analysis completed in the fourth quarter 2010.

Deposit Activities

Traditional deposit accounts have historically been the primary source of funds for the Company and a competitive strength of our Company. Traditional deposit accounts also provide a customer base for the
sale of additional financial products and services and fee income through service charges. We set targets for growth in deposit accounts annually in an effort to increase the number of products per banking relationship. Deposits are attractive
sources of funding because of their stability and generally low cost as compared with other funding sources.

The following table summarizes
our traditional deposit composition at the dates indicated (dollars in thousands).

In March 2010, we introduced a new checking accounting, MyPal checking, and a new savings account, Smart Savings. These
accounts combine traditional banking features and nonbanking features and are expected to be a source of both additional deposits and noninterest income resulting primarily from service charges or debit card transactions.

The MyPal checking account includes a monthly fee of $5, which is reduced by $0.50 each time account holders uses their debit card. Thus, ten debit card
transactions per month results in no monthly fee to the account holders. However, the Company earns a per transaction fee from the merchant each time the debit cards are used. In addition, the MyPal checking account includes a competitive interest
rate, free checks, free identity theft protection and safety deposit rental for a period of time, and comes with a membership rewards program that provides purchase discounts to the account holders for items such as airfare, car rental and hotel,
and every day savings at a wide variety of national and local retailers and entertainment companies. As of September 30, 2010, the aggregate current balance of new and converted MyPal checking accounts totaled $8.6 million.

The Smart Savings account can be linked to any of our checking accounts and results in $1 being transferred from the account holders checking
account to the Smart Saving account each time account holders use their debit cards. The Company initially matched each $1 transfer with $1 for the first six months. Effective October 1, 2010, the match was reduced to $.10. The maximum match is
$250 per year. The Smart Savings account is also interest-bearing. As of September 30, 2010, the aggregate current balance of Smart Savings accounts totaled $3.9 million.

We have also evaluated the profitability of all of our pre-existing checking accounts and in October 2010 upgraded a large number of unprofitable checking accounts to the MyPal account. We are also
revising our existing fees (some increases and some decreases) and eliminating existing fees or implementing new fees based on our analysis of our fee structure in relation to our costs and competitor fees, with various implementation dates
generally between October 1, 2010 and March 31, 2011.

On July 21, 2010, President Obama signed the Dodd-Frank Wall Street
Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the Dodd-Frank Act). The Dodd-Frank Act calls for new limits on interchange transaction fees that banks receive from merchants via card networks like Visa, Inc. and MasterCard, Inc. when a customer
uses a debit card. The results of this proposed legislation may impact our interchange income from debit card transactions in the future.

##### Table of Contents



During the first and second quarters
of 2010, we conducted targeted deposit growth and retention campaigns related to maturing certificates of deposit and to attract new deposits. The certificate of deposit (CD) campaigns included CDs with various maturities ranging from 6
months to 60 months, as well as 15, 20, and 36 month step-up add-on CDs that allow holders to reset their interest rate up to one, two and three times, respectively, over the life of the CD and to add to the CDs over their lives. These CD campaigns
ended on June 30, 2010. From January 1, 2010 through June 30, 2010, these campaigns resulted in the retention of existing CDs and generation of new CDs totaling $258.1 million. However, due primarily to maturing CDs that were not
retained, through October 27, 2010 total traditional deposit accounts, and as a result our cash, decreased $18.2 million from December 31, 2009. In general, this CD runoff was expected as part of our balance sheet management efforts to
attract and retain lower priced transaction deposit accounts and shrink our higher priced deposit base given the decline in the loan portfolio.

At September 30, 2010, traditional deposit accounts as a percentage of liabilities were 90.1% compared with 89.3% at December 31, 2009.
Interest-bearing deposits decreased $23.2 million during the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, primarily due to higher priced time deposit accounts not being retained at maturity as part of our balance sheet management efforts.
Noninterest-bearing deposits increased $8.1 million during the same period. Traditional deposit accounts continue to be our primary source of funding, and, as part of our liquidity plan, we are proactively pursuing deposit retention initiatives with
our deposit customers. We are also pursuing strategies to increase our transaction deposit accounts as a proportion of our total deposits.

The Dodd-Frank Act also permanently raises the current standard maximum deposit insurance amount to $250,000. The standard maximum insurance amount of
$100,000 had been temporarily raised to $250,000 until December 31, 2013. The FDIC insurance coverage limit applies per depositor, per insured depository institution for each account ownership category. In addition, we are voluntarily
participating in the FDICs Transaction Account Guarantee Program. Under this program, all noninterest-bearing transaction accounts are fully guaranteed by the FDIC for the entire amount of the account. On April 13, 2010, the FDIC approved
an interim rule that extends the Transaction Account Guarantee Program to December 31, 2010. We have elected to continue our voluntary participation in the program. Coverage under the program is in addition to and separate from the basic
coverage available under the FDICs general deposit insurance rules. We believe participation in the program is enhancing our ability to retain customer deposits.

During 2010, three South Carolina banks, including one located in our geographic market, have been taken into receivership by the FDIC. To date, we have not experienced any significant impact from these
events.

Borrowing Activities

Retail Repurchase Agreements. We offer retail repurchase agreements as an alternative investment tool to
conventional savings deposits. The investor buys an interest in a pool of U.S. government or agency securities. Funds are swept daily between the customer and the Bank. Retail repurchase agreements are securities transactions, not insured
deposits.

Commercial Paper. Through
June 30, 2010, we offered commercial paper as an alternative investment tool for our commercial customers. Through a master note arrangement between the Company and the Bank, Palmetto Master Notes were issued as an alternative investment for
commercial sweep accounts. These master notes were unsecured but backed by the full faith and credit of the Company. The commercial paper was issued only in conjunction with deposits in the Banks automated sweep accounts.

Effective July 1, 2010, as part of our efforts to provide enhanced services to our customers, we no longer offer the commercial paper program, and
all commercial paper accounts were converted to a new money market sweep account by June 30, 2010. The money market sweep account is an FDIC insured deposit and includes interest paid on excess balances and automatic transfers between various
different accounts of our customers.

In January 2010, we were notified by the FHLB that we are able to rollover existing advances as they mature;
however, the FHLB will not allow incremental borrowings until our financial condition improves.

Federal Reserve Discount Window. The
maximum maturity for potential borrowings is overnight. Any potential borrowings from the Federal Reserve Discount Window would be at the secondary credit rate and must be used for operational issues, and the Federal Reserve has the discretion to
deny approval of borrowing requests. We had no outstanding borrowings from the Federal Reserve at December 31, 2009 or September 30, 2010.

Federal Funds Accommodations. At September 30, 2010, we had access to federal funds funding from a correspondent bank. Our federal funds accommodation line is secured by U.S. Treasury and
federal agencies securities. The following table summarizes our federal funds funding utilization and availability at the dates indicated (in thousands).

This federal funds funding source may be canceled at any time at the correspondent banks discretion.

Convertible Debt. In March 2010, the Company issued unsecured convertible promissory notes in an aggregate principal amount of $380 thousand to
members of the Board of Directors. The notes bore interest at 10% per year payable quarterly, had a stated maturity of March 31, 2015, were prepayable by the Company at any time at the discretion of the Board of Directors, and were
mandatorily convertible into stock of the Company at the same terms and conditions as other investors that participate in the Companys next stock offering. The proceeds from the issuance of the notes were contributed to the Bank as a capital

contribution. As of September 30, 2010, interest of $19 thousand had been accrued but not paid. Upon the consummation of the Private Placement on October 7, 2010, the principal balances
of the outstanding convertible promissory notes were converted into shares of the Companys common stock at the same price per share as the common stock issued in the Private Placement, and the accrued interest was paid on October 7, 2010.

Private Placement

As previously described, the Bank agreed to the issuance of a Consent Order with the Supervisory Authorities effective June 10, 2010. One of the
requirements of the Consent Order is to raise additional capital to meet the regulatory minimum capital requirements.

On May 25, 2010
(and as amended on June 8, 2010 and September 22, 2010), the Company entered into the Investment Agreements with institutional investors, pursuant to which on October 7, 2010, the investors purchased $103.9 million of shares of the
Companys common stock at $2.60 per share. Pursuant to the Investment Agreements, the Company appointed three designees of the investors to the Companys Board of Directors effective October 12, 2010. These three designees are also
expected to be appointed to the Board of Directors of the Bank upon non-objection determination from the FDIC. In addition, the investors have preemptive rights with respect to public or private offerings of the Companys common stock (or
rights to purchase, or securities convertible into or exercisable for, common stock) during a 24-month period after the closing of the Private Placement to enable the investors to maintain their percentage interests of the Companys common
stock beneficially owned, subject to certain exceptions, including an exception that permits the Company to conduct a common stock offering following the closing of the Private Placement of up to $10 million directed to the Companys
shareholders as of the close of business on October 6, 2010. A registration statement was filed with the SEC on October 8, 2010 for the offering of up to $10 million of shares of the Companys common stock at $2.60 per share solely to
the Companys shareholders as of October 6, 2010. These shareholders will have 30 days from the effective date of the registration statement to purchase shares of the Companys common stock. The foregoing information does not
constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy shares of the Companys common stock.

The Private Placement was
conditioned upon, among other things, the Companys shareholders approval of an amendment to the Companys Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 25,000,000
shares to 75,000,000 shares and reduce the par value of the common stock from $5.00 per share to $0.01 per share, the Companys representations and warranties contained in the Investment Agreements being true and correct in all material
respects on the closing date, and the investors receiving all required regulatory approvals and determinations.

At the Companys annual
shareholder meeting on August 6, 2010 the shareholders approved the two amendments to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation. In addition, on September 22, 2010, the Company received the necessary regulatory approval from the
Federal Reserve. On October 7, 2010, the Private Placement was consummated and the Company issued 39,975,980 common shares at $2.60 per share and contributed $94 million to the Bank. As a result, the Companys and the Banks capital
adequacy ratios now exceed the minimum capital adequacy ratios to be categorized as well capitalized and those required by the Consent Order for the Bank.

Dividends. The following table summarizes key dividend information at the dates and for the periods indicated (dollars in thousands, except per share data).

The Company and the Bank are subject to
regulatory policies and requirements relating to the payment of dividends. In an effort to retain capital during this period of economic uncertainty, the Board of Directors reduced the quarterly dividend for the first quarter of 2009 and has not
declared or paid a quarterly common stock dividend since that date. The Board of Directors believes that suspension of the dividend was prudent to protect our capital base. In addition, since our total risk-based capital ratio at September 30,
2010 was below the well-capitalized regulatory minimum threshold, payment of a dividend on the common stock of the Bank requires prior notification and non-objection from the FDIC. Our Board of Directors will continue to evaluate dividend payment
opportunities on a quarterly basis. There can be no assurance as to when and if future dividends will be reinstated, and at what level, because they are dependent on our financial condition, results of operations, and / or cash flows, as well as
capital and dividend regulations from the FDIC and others.

Regulatory Capital and Other Requirements. The Company and the Bank are
required to meet regulatory capital requirements that include several measures of capital. Under regulatory capital requirements, accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) amounts do not increase or decrease regulatory capital and are not
included in the calculation of risk-based capital and leverage ratios.

As previously described, in March
2010, the Company issued unsecured convertible promissory notes in an aggregate principal amount of $380 thousand. The proceeds from this issuance, along with other cash of the Company, were contributed to the Bank as a capital contribution. Upon
the consummation of the Private Placement, the principal balances of the outstanding convertible promissory notes were converted into shares of the Companys common stock at the same price per share as the common stock issued in the Private
Placement, and the accrued interest was paid on October 7, 2010.

Our total risk-based capital ratio, Tier 1 leverage ratio, and Tier 1
risk-based capital ratio were below the well-capitalized regulatory minimum threshold of 10%, 5%, and 6%, respectively, at September 30, 2010. As a result, although we had none at or since September 30, 2010, we may not accept brokered
deposits unless a waiver is granted by the FDIC. Additionally, we would normally be restricted from offering an effective yield on deposits of more than 75 basis points over the national rates published by the FDIC weekly on their website. However,
on April 1, 2010 we were notified by the FDIC that they had determined that the geographic areas in which we operate were considered high-rate areas. Accordingly, we are able to offer interest rates on deposits up to 75 basis points over the
prevailing interest rates in our geographic areas.

In addition, as a result of the Private Placement, as of October 7, 2010 the
Companys and the Banks capital adequacy ratios exceed the minimum capital adequacy ratios to be categorized as well capitalized.

The balance of net deferred income tax assets at September 30, 2010 represented tax assets and liabilities arising from temporary differences between the financial reporting and income tax bases of
various items as of that date. As of September 30, 2010, we evaluated whether it was more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets could be supported as realizable, given the financial results for the year. Based on this evaluation, as
described in more detail in Part I.  Financial Information, Item 2. Financial Condition, Deferred Tax Asset, included elsewhere in this item, no valuation allowance was recorded for financial reporting purposes at September 30, 2010.
However, of our total deferred tax asset of $13.2 million that was not realizable through the carryback period at September 30, 2010, $12.8 million was disallowed for regulatory capital purposes due to a statutorily defined regulatory
limitation on the period for which future taxable income estimates may be considered.

See Part I. Financial Information, Item 1.
Financial Statements, Note 18 contained herein for additional disclosures regarding the Companys and the Banks actual and required regulatory capital requirements and ratios, including the pro-forma capital ratios for each entity
reflecting the consummation of the Private Placement on October 7, 2010. Other than the consummation of the Private Placement, since September 30, 2010, no conditions or events have occurred of which we are aware, that have resulted in a
material change in the Companys or the Banks capital category other than as reported in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Basel III. Internationally, both the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (the Basel Committee) and the Financial Stability Board
(established in April 2009 by the Group of Twenty (G-20) Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors to take action to strengthen regulation and supervision of the financial system with greater international consistency, cooperation,
and transparency) have committed to raise capital standards and liquidity buffers within the banking system (Basel III). On September 12, 2010, the Group of Governors and Heads of Supervision agreed to the calibration and
phase-in of the Basel III minimum capital requirements (raising the minimum Tier 1 common equity ratio to 4.5% and minimum Tier 1 equity ratio to 6.0%, with full implementation by January 2015) and introducing a capital conservation buffer of common
equity of an additional 2.5% with implementation by January 2019. The U.S. federal banking agencies support this agreement. The Basel Committee is expected to finalize the new capital and liquidity standard later this year and to present
them for approval of the G-20 Finance Minister and Central Bank Governors in November 2010.

Outstanding Equity. We currently have
authorized common stock and preferred stock of 75 million and 2.5 million shares, respectively. In the Private Placement, 39,975,980 shares of common stock were issued on October 7, 2010, resulting in remaining authorized but unissued
common shares of 28,382,745 at October 7, 2010.

Government Financing. We did not participate in the U.S. Treasurys Capital
Purchase Program offered in 2008 based on our evaluation of the merits of the program at that time.

On September 27, 2010, the Small
Business Jobs and Credit Act was signed into law which, among other things, creates a $30 billion fund to provide capital for banks with assets under $10 billion to increase their small-business lending. We are currently evaluating the merits of
this program and whether we are eligible to participate and, if so, whether we will participate.

With respect to any other potential
government assistance programs in the future, we will evaluate the merits of the programs, including the terms of the financing, the Companys capital position at that time, the cost to the Company of alternative capital at that time, and the
Companys strategy at that time for the use of additional capital, to determine whether it is prudent to participate.

Private Trading
System. On June 26, 2009, we implemented a Private Trading System on our website (www.palmettobank.com). The Private Trading System is a passive mechanism created to assist buyers and sellers in facilitating trades in our common
stock. On June 30, 2009, the Company mailed a letter and related materials to shareholders regarding the Private Trading System and elected to furnish this information as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on
July 2, 2009 which can be accessed through the SECs website (www.sec.gov).

One of the requirements of the Private Placement
is that the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to list the shares of our common stock on the NASDAQ or another national securities exchange within nine months of the closing date of the Private Placement on October 7, 2010. We are
currently evaluating the listing requirements to be listed on the NASDAQ, and no assurances can be provided at this time that we will meet such listing requirements.

Board of Directors and Governance. During 2009, as part of our ongoing self-assessment process, management and the Board of Directors focused on their governance roles and processes to improve the
risk management oversight of the Company, refine the roles and responsibilities of the Board of Directors and Board committees, and to support an overall healthy corporate culture. The Board performed a self-assessment facilitated by an external
consultant including comparisons to best practices from recognized authorities such as the Business Roundtable, CalPERS, and the national stock exchanges. The Board also reviewed the Companys Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws and updated
them to fit the current and future size, structure, and business activities of the Company. Also, during 2009 and 2010, management refined its performance evaluation process with a more detailed focus on roles and responsibilities and related
accountabilities.

As a condition of the Private Placement, the Company appointed three designees from two specific institutional investors to
serve on the Board of Directors of the Company effective October 12, 2010. These three designees are also expected to be appointed to the Board of Directors of the Bank upon a non-objection determination from the FDIC. Based on terms of the
Private Placement the Board of Directors of the Company was reduced to 11 directors, including the three new investor designees, immediately following the consummation of the Private Placement. The changes in the Boards of Directors were reported on
a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 18, 2010.

The Dodd-Frank Act. As previously reported, on July 21,
2010, President Obama signed the Dodd-Frank Act into law. This new legislation makes extensive changes to the laws regulating financial products and services as well as firms and companies offering financial products and services. The legislation
requires substantial rulemaking and mandates numerous additional studies, the results of which could impact future legislative and regulatory action.

While we are evaluating the specific impact this new legislation will have on our current and future operations, we have identified several areas of operation that will be affected. For example, the
Dodd-Frank Act amends the manner for calculating the assessment base for deposit insurance premiums paid to the FDIC. The legislation also requires the federal banking agencies to issue new rules to implement new minimum leverage and risk-based
capital requirements for insured depository institutions.

In addition, the Dodd-Frank Act establishes the Consumer Financial Protection
Bureau (the Bureau) as a new, independent federal agency, which will have broad rulemaking, supervisory, and enforcement authority over financial institutions providing consumer financial products and services. Examples of such products
and services include deposit products, residential mortgages, home-equity loans, and credit cards. Under the Dodd-Frank Act, states are permitted to adopt more stringent consumer protection laws, and state attorneys general can enforce those laws as
well as consumer protection rules issued by the Bureau.

Liquidity

Liquidity measures our ability to meet current and future cash flow needs as they become due. The liquidity of a financial institution reflects its
ability to accommodate possible outflows in deposit accounts, meet loan requests and commitments, maintain reserve requirements, pay operating expenses, provide funds for dividends and debt service, manage operations on an ongoing basis, capitalize
on new business opportunities, and take advantage of interest rate market opportunities. The ability of a financial institution to meet its current financial obligations is a function of its balance sheet structure, its ability to liquidate assets,
and its access to alternative sources of funds. We seek to ensure our funding needs are met by maintaining a level of liquid funds through proactive balance sheet management.

Asset liquidity is provided by liquid assets which are readily convertible into cash or pledgeable or which will mature in the near future. Our liquid assets include cash, interest-bearing deposits in
banks, investment securities available for sale, and federal funds sold. Liability liquidity is provided by access to funding sources, which include deposits and borrowed funds. We may also issue equity securities although our common and preferred
stock are not listed on a national exchange or quoted on an over-the-counter service. Each of the Companys sources of liquidity is subject to various factors beyond our control.

Liquidity resources and balances at September 30, 2010 contained herein are an accurate depiction of our activity during the period and, except as noted, have not materially changed to date.

Commitments, Guarantees, and Other Contingencies

Summary

Historically, our earnings were driven primarily by a high net interest margin which allowed for a higher expense base related primarily to personnel and facilities. However, given the narrowing of our
net interest margin due to the reduction of 500 to 525 basis points in interest rates by the Federal Reserve in 2007 and 2008, we have become much more focused on increasing our noninterest income and managing expenses. In addition, we are
realigning our lending focus to originate higher yielding loan portfolio segments with lower historical loss rates. To accelerate efforts to improve our earnings, we also engaged external strategic consulting firms in 2010 which specialize in
assessment of banking products and services, revenue enhancements, and efficiency reviews.

One of the components of our Strategic Project
Plan is an earnings plan that is focused on earnings improvement through a combination of revenue increases and expense reductions. In summary, to date:



| |  |  | With respect to net interest income, we have implemented risk-based loan pricing and interest rate floors on renewed and new loans meeting certain
criteria. At September 30, 2010, loans aggregating $217.5 million had interest rate floors, of which $201.7 million had floors greater than or equal to 5%. In June and July 2010, we began loan specials intended to generate additional loan
volume for residential mortgage, auto, credit card, consumer, and commercial loans. In light of the current low interest rate environment, we have also reduced the interest rates paid on our deposit accounts. Given expectations for rising interest
rates, we have also borrowed longer-term advances from the FHLB and extended maturities on certain CD specials to lock in the current low interest rates.

| |  |  | Regarding noninterest income, we are evaluating other noninterest sources of income. For example, in March 2010, we introduced a new checking account,
MyPal checking, and a new savings account, Smart Savings, both of which provide noninterest income resulting from service charges or debit card transactions. We have also evaluated the profitability of all of our pre-existing checking accounts and
in October 2010 upgraded a large number of unprofitable checking accounts to the MyPal account. We are also revising our existing fees and implementing new fees, with various implementation dates generally between October 1, 2010 and
March 31, 2011.

| |  |  | Regarding noninterest expenses, we have identified over $2.5 million of specific noninterest expense reductions to be realized in 2009 and 2010 and are
continuing to review other expense areas for additional reductions, including with assistance from a consulting firm that specializes in process and efficiency reviews. These expense reductions will be partially offset by the higher level of
credit-related costs incurred due to legal, consulting, and carrying costs related to our higher level of nonperforming assets.

| |  |  | Lastly, we are critically evaluating each of our businesses to determine their contribution to our financial performance and their relative risk /
return relationship. Based on the evaluation to date, on March 31, 2010 we entered into a referral and services agreement with Global Direct related to our merchant services business which resulted in a gross payment to the Company of $786
thousand, which is included in Merchant services income in the amount of $550 thousand, net of transaction fees, for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010.

Net Interest Income

General. Net interest income is the difference between interest
income earned on interest-earning assets, primarily loans and investment securities, and interest expense paid on interest-bearing deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities. This measure represents the largest component of income for us. The
net interest margin measures how effectively we manage the difference between the interest income earned on interest-earning assets and the interest expense paid for funds to support those assets. Changes in interest rates earned on interest-earning
assets and interest rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities, the rate of growth of the interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities base, the ratio of interest-earning assets to interest-bearing liabilities, and the management of
interest rate sensitivity factor into fluctuations within net interest income.

During the second half of 2008 and continuing in 2009 and
2010, the financial markets experienced significant volatility resulting from the continued fallout of subprime lending and the global liquidity crisis. A multitude of government initiatives along with interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve
have been designed to improve liquidity for the distressed financial markets and stabilize the banking system. The relationship between declining interest-earning asset yields and more slowly declining interest-bearing liability costs has caused,
and may continue to cause, net interest margin compression. Net interest margin compression may also continue to be impacted by continued deterioration of assets resulting in further interest income adjustments.

Net interest income totaled $10.0 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2010 compared with $11.5 million for the three month period
ended September 30, 2009. Overall, interest income has been negatively impacted by the following:



| |  |  | Reduction in interest rates by the Federal Reserve by 500 to 525 basis points throughout 2007 and 2008. In response, we have refined the type of loan
and deposit products we prefer to pursue taking into consideration the yields earned and rates paid and are exercising more discipline in our loan and deposit interest rate levels. We have also implemented interest rate floors on loans. At
September 30, 2010, loans aggregating $217.5 million had interest rate floors, of which $201.7 million had floors greater than or equal to 5%.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Higher level of loans placed in nonaccrual status during the period; foregone interest on nonaccrual loans for the three month period ended
September 30, 2010 totaled $962 thousand.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Maintaining cash received primarily from loan and security repayments invested in cash rather than being reinvested in other earning assets.
Maintaining this cash balance has reduced our interest income by $1.2 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2010 when compared with investing these funds at the average yield of 2.34% on our investment securities, since we are
retaining a higher level of cash instead of reinvesting this cash in higher yielding assets. Given the consummation of our Private Placement on October 7, 2010, we have begun redeploying this cash balance into investment securities and are
evaluating the potential to repay FHLB advances as they come due in 2011.

Average Balance Sheets and Net
Interest Income / Margin Analysis. The following table summarizes our average balance sheets and net interest income / margin analysis for the periods indicated (dollars in thousands). Our interest yield earned on interest-earning assets and
interest rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities shown in the table are derived by dividing interest income and expense by the average balances of interest-earning assets or interest-bearing liabilities, respectively. The following table does not
include a tax-equivalent adjustment to net interest income for interest-earning assets earning tax-exempt income to a comparable yield on a taxable basis.

Federal Reserve Rate
Influences. The Federal Reserve influences the general market rates of interest earned on interest-earning assets and interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities. However, there have been no changes by the Federal Reserve with regard to the
federal funds interest rate from December 31, 2008 through September 30, 2010.

Rate / Volume Analysis. The following rate /
volume analysis summarizes the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense attributable to changes in volume and the amount attributable to changes in rate when comparing the periods indicated (in thousands). The impact of the
combination of rate and volume change has been divided proportionately between the rate change and volume change.

Absent the significant impact of impaired loans during the three month period ended September 30, 2010, the change in
loans due to volume and the change due to rate for the three month period ended September 30, 2010 compared with the three month period ended September 30, 2009 was ($4.7) million and $2.1 million, respectively.

Provision for Loan Losses

Provision for
loan losses decreased from $24.0 million during the three month period ended September 30, 2009 to $13.1 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2010. See Part I.  Financial Information, Item 2. Financial
Condition, Lending Activities, included elsewhere in this item, for discussion regarding our accounting policies related to, factors impacting, and methodology for analyzing the adequacy of our allowance for loan losses and, therefore, our provision
for loan losses.

Service Charges on Deposit Accounts, Net. Net service charges, annualized, on deposit accounts comprise a significant
component of noninterest income totaling 1.6% and 1.9% of average transaction deposit accounts for the three month periods ended September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009, respectively. The decrease in service charges on deposit accounts,
net is attributed to a decrease in overdraft fees resulting from a $100

free overdraft limit included with the new MyPal account that we began offering in March 2010, a change in customer behavior from their increased awareness of overdraft fees such that the number
of transactions that would otherwise result in overdrafts has been reduced, and the customers with historical overdraft transactions who did not opt in to overdraft protection as required by Regulation E.

In response to competition to retain deposits, institutions in the financial services industry have increasingly been providing services for free in an
effort to lure deposits away from competitors and retain existing balances. Services that were initially developed as fee income opportunities, such as Internet banking and bill payment service, are now provided to customers free of charge.
Consequently, opportunities to earn additional income from service charges for such services have been more limited. In addition, recent focus on the level of deposit service charges within the banking industry by the media and the U.S. Government
may result in future legislation limiting the amount and type of services charges within the banking industry.

The November 2009 amendment to
Regulation E of the Electronic Fund Transfer Act, which was effective July 1, 2010 for new customers and August 15, 2010 for existing customers, prohibits financial institutions from charging consumers fees for paying overdrafts on
automated teller machine and one-time debit card transactions unless a consumer consents to the overdraft service for those types of transactions. Some industry experts estimated that the impact of the change from Regulation E would result in a
reduction of 30% to 40% of such overdraft fees. To continue to have overdraft services available to those customers who desired to have this services, we were proactive in encouraging our deposit customers to opt-in to overdraft protection. To date,
86% of our customers who have previously utilized overdraft features have opted-in to overdraft protection. At this time, we do not yet know if the implementation of Regulation E will result in a sustained reduction in our services charges.

Mortgage-Banking. Most of the residential mortgage loans that we originate are sold in the secondary market. Normally we retain the
servicing rights. Mortgage loans serviced for the benefit of others amounted to $425.5 million and $426.6 million at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, and are not included in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Mortgage-banking income increased $580
thousand (94.6%) from the three month period ended September 30, 2009 to the three month period ended September 30, 2010. Derivative loan commitment income and forward sales commitment income increased $611 thousand over the same
periods. Derivative loan commitment income and forward sales commitment income fluctuates based on the change in interest rates between the time we entered into the commitment to originate / sell the loans and the valuation date.

Merchant Services. Merchant services income decreased $273 thousand from the three month period ended September 30, 2009 to the same period
2010 as a result of our execution of the referral and services agreement with Global Direct in March 2010. As previously described, we are critically evaluating each of our businesses to determine their contribution to our financial performance and
their relative risk / return relationship. Based on the evaluation to date, on March 31, 2010 we entered into a referral and services agreement with Global Direct related to our merchant services business. Under the agreement, Global Direct
will provide services including merchant sales through a dedicated sales person, marketing and advertising within our geographic footprint, credit review and approval and activating new merchant accounts, equipment sales and customer service,
transaction authorization service, risk mitigation services, and compliance with applicable laws and card association and payment network rules. Under the terms of the agreement, we now receive referral income when we refer customers that are
accepted by Global Direct and a percentage of the ongoing revenues related to merchant services accounts sold to Global Direct.

Noninterest Expense

General. The
earnings component of our Strategic Project Plan includes keen focus on expense management. As part of our earnings plan to improve our overall financial performance, we identified over $2.5 million of specific noninterest expense reductions to be
realized in 2009 and 2010 and are continuing to review other expense areas for additional reductions. Examples include freezing most employee salaries effective May 1, 2009, eliminating the remaining officer cash incentive plan awards under the
corporate incentive plan for 2009, reducing our Saturday banking hours from 2:00 p.m. to noon in September 2009, converting some branch office hours on Saturdays to drive thru only in October 2010, reducing marketing expenses, reducing corporate
contributions to not-for-profit organizations, reducing officer perquisites, elimination in 2010 of all bank-owned automobiles provided to officers, reduction in coverage for annual physical examinations for officers, elimination in 2010 of Company
paid life insurance premiums for certain officers, and termination of officer participation in the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan.

With the assistance from a third party consulting firm, we also reviewed our Retail Banking network in March through June 2010 and are implementing
process improvements and other recommendations that we believe will result in reduced expenses. In September 2010, with assistance from the same consulting firm, we began a comprehensive review of our lending process that we believe will similarly
result in efficiency improvements and cost savings. Savings have also been realized resulting from implementing more advanced technology and other process improvements. These expense reductions will be partially offset by the higher level of
credit-related costs incurred due to legal, consulting, and carrying costs related to our higher level of nonperforming assets. We continue to review other expense areas for additional reduction opportunities.

Salaries and Other Personnel. Salaries and other personnel expense decreased $63 thousand (1.0%) from the three
month period ended September 30, 2009 to same period of 2010. Full-time equivalent employees were 392 and 408 at September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

FDIC Deposit Insurance Assessment. FDIC insurance premiums increased $1.1 million from the three month period ended September 30, 2009 to the same period of 2010. For the three month period
ended September 30, 2010, the FDICs general assessment rates increased compared to the same period of 2009. The increase in the general assessment was the result of our voluntary participation in the FDICs Transaction Account
Guarantee Program and our capital classification being below well-capitalized. With the consummation of the Private Placement on October 7, 2010 and the resulting change in the Banks capital classification to well-capitalized, we project
that our FDIC insurance premiums will be reduced by approximately $389 thousand beginning in the fourth quarter of 2010 based on the same levels of deposits.

Mortgage-Servicing Rights Portfolio Amortization and Impairment. Amortization and impairment of the mortgage-servicing rights portfolio decreased $80 thousand (27.7%) from the three month
period ended September 30, 2009 to the same period of 2010. During 2007 and 2008, the Federal Reserve decreased rates by 500 to 525 basis points. During the three month period ended September 30, 2009, this decline in interest rates
resulted in an increase in loan prepayments and, therefore, increased amortization within the mortgage-servicing rights portfolio. Loan prepayments were significantly lower in the quarter ended September 30, 2010.

Marketing. Marketing expense increased $168 thousand (78.1%) from the three month period ended September 30, 2009 to the same period of
2010, primarily due to promotional efforts related to our new MyPal checking and Smart Savings deposit accounts introduced in March 2010 and increased marketing related to mortgage and small business.

Real Estate Acquired in Settlement of Loans Writedowns and Expenses. Real estate acquired in settlement of loans writedowns and expenses increased
$4.0 million from the three month period ended September 30, 2009 to the same period of 2010. Based on currently available valuation information primarily from third party appraisals, the carrying value of these assets is written down to their
fair value less estimated costs. Writedowns on seven such properties resulted in a provision charged to expense of $4.4 million. Of the total writedowns recorded during the three month period ended September 30, 2010, 79% related to these seven
properties. The continued high level of writedowns is due to receipts of contracts and updated appraisals which continued to show declining values based on lack of property sales activity. The continued high level of expenses is due to payment of
legal fees, taxes, insurance, utilities, property management company fees, and other carrying costs on foreclosed properties.

Goodwill
impairment. Goodwill impairment of $3.7 million was recognized during the three month period ended September 30, 2010. As described in Part I.  Financial Information, Item 2. Financial Condition, Goodwill, we performed an
impairment test of our goodwill at September 30, 2010. This evaluation indicated that the carrying value of the Companys goodwill exceeded the fair value and resulted in a third quarter noncash charge of $3.7 million, eliminating the
entire balance of the goodwill on the Companys Consolidated Balance Sheet. This charge had no effect on the liquidity, regulatory capital, or daily operations of the Company.

Other. Other noninterest expense remained relatively unchanged over the three month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2010.

Included as branch closure expense within this financial statement line item are the expenses associated with banking offices previously consolidated or relocated that have not yet been subleased or sold.

operating leases with total monthly payments of approximately $9 thousand expired during 2010 through September 30, 2010 and will result in a reduction in branch facilities
expense going forward. In June 2010, we sold one vacant bank owned branch with a net book value of $46 thousand at a slight gain.

Also
included within this financial statement line item for the three month period ended September 30, 2010 was the provision for loss on unfunded commitments. Due to an increase in historical loss factors from June 30, 2010 to
September 30, 2010, the provision for loss on unfunded commitments increased the reserve by $9 thousand for the three month period ended September 30, 2010. Commitments have fixed expiration dates and most of our commitments to extend
credit have adverse change clauses that allow the Bank to cancel the commitments based on various factors, including deterioration in the creditworthiness of the borrower. Accordingly, many of our loan commitments are expected to expire without
being drawn upon and therefore the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent potential credit exposure. In general the methodology to determine the reserve for unfunded commitments is inherently similar to that used to determine the
general reserve component of the allowance for loan losses.

Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes

As a result of our pretax net loss of $21.4 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2010, we recognized an income tax benefit of $7.6
million for the period. During the three month period ended September 30, 2009, we recognized an income tax benefit of $7.8 million on pretax net loss of $21.9 million. Our effective tax rate was 35.5% for the three month period ended
September 30, 2010 and 35.4% for the three month period ended September 30, 2009.

As described in Part I.  Financial
Information, Item 2. Financial Condition, Deferred Tax Asset, we have not recorded a valuation allowance against our deferred tax asset at September 30, 2010 based primarily on projections of future taxable income over the next five years.
If our actual financial results do not result in taxable income in the amounts projected, we may be required to record a valuation allowance against our deferred tax asset which would increase our reported net loss.

In addition, the Private Placement consummated on October 7, 2010 is considered a change in control under the Internal Revenue Service rules.
Accordingly, with the assistance of third party specialists we are in the process of determining the fair values of our assets for purposes of evaluating any potential limitations or deferrals of our ability to utilize in the future the net
operating losses incurred through the consummation date and / or any built in losses as of the consummation date. Any such limitation or deferrals could result in the need to record a valuation allowance against all or a portion of our deferred tax
assets which would increase our reported net loss. We expect to have our analysis completed in the fourth quarter 2010.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income totaled $31.5 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010 compared with $34.2 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2009. In addition to the
impact of changes due to volume and rate as summarized below in Rate / Volume Analysis, net interest income for the period was negatively impacted by the impact of loans placed in nonaccrual status during the period. Foregone interest on nonaccrual
loans for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010 totaled $3.2 million. The net interest margin was also negatively impacted by retaining at the Federal Reserve a higher level of cash, primarily from loan and security repayments, for
which we earn a 25 basis points yield. The net interest margin remained relatively unchanged at 3.33% during the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 and 3.23% during the same period of 2010.

Average Balance Sheets and Net Interest Income / Margin Analysis. The following table summarizes our average balance sheets and net interest
income / margin analysis for the periods indicated (dollars in thousands). Our interest yield earned on interest-earning assets and interest rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities shown in the table are derived by dividing interest income and
expense by the average balances of interest-earning assets or interest-bearing liabilities, respectively. The following table does not include a tax-equivalent adjustment to net interest income for interest-earning assets earning tax-exempt income
to a comparable yield on a taxable basis.

##### Table of Contents



Federal Reserve Rate
Influences. The Federal Reserve influences the general market rates of interest earned on interest-earning assets and interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities. However, there have been no changes by the Federal Reserve with regard to the
prime interest rate and the federal funds interest rate from December 31, 2008 through September 30, 2010.

Rate / Volume
Analysis. The following rate / volume analysis summarizes the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense attributable to changes in volume and the amount attributable to changes in rate when comparing the periods indicated
(in thousands). The impact of the combination of rate and volume change has been divided proportionately between the rate change and volume change.

Fees for trust and investment management and brokerage services for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010
increased $306 thousand (18.4%) to $2.0 million from $1.7 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2009, primarily as a result of the overall increase in the average market values of securities held in trust accounts upon
which trust fees are calculated. Fees for brokerage services are primarily transaction-based. As such, the increase in these fees was primarily due to the increase in brokerage transaction activity over the periods presented.

In October 2010, we refined our organizational structure and designated one of our most senior members of executive management with the role of expanding
the Banks existing trust and investments division into a comprehensive wealth management business. We believe providing broader wealth management services to our customers, including private banking and investment management, is critical to
gaining market growth. We will be evaluating our overall strategy, platform and resources over the next few months, and expect the expansion into wealth management to occur in 2011.

Mortgage-Banking. Most of the residential mortgage loans that we originate are sold in the secondary market. Normally we retain the servicing rights. Mortgage loans serviced for the benefit of
others amounted to $425.5 million and $426.6 million at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, and are not included in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The following table summarizes the components of mortgage-banking income for the periods indicated (dollars in thousands).

Mortgage-banking income decreased $533
thousand (19.6%) from the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 to the nine month period ended September 30, 2010. Gains on sales of mortgage loans declined approximately $627 thousand for the nine month period ended
September 30, 2010 compared to the three month period ended September 30, 2009. In 2009, the low interest rate environment contributed to an increase in refinancings which has declined to normal levels in 2010. Offsetting this change,
derivative loan commitment income and forward sales commitment income increased $149 thousand over the same periods. Derivative loan commitment income and forward sales commitment income fluctuates based on the change in interest rates between the
time we entered into the commitment to originate / sell the loans and the valuation date.

Merchant Services. Merchant services income
increased $72 thousand (8.6%) from the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 to the same period 2010. As previously described in Third Quarter 2010 Earnings Review, Noninterest Income, Merchant Services, on March 31, 2010 we
entered into a referral and services agreement with Global Direct related to our merchant services business which resulted in a gross payment to the Company of $786 thousand, which is included in Merchant services income in the amount of $550
thousand, net of transaction fees, for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010.

Salaries and Other Personnel. Salaries and other personnel expense increased $243 thousand (1.3%) from the nine
month period ended September 30, 2009 to the same period of 2010. Full-time equivalent employees were 392 and 408, respectively at September 30, 2010 and 2009.

Occupancy. Occupancy expense increased $278 thousand (8.5%) for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010 over the same period of 2009, primarily as a result of the impact of the new
corporate headquarters. Occupancy expense for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010 included nine monthly payments under the lease agreement for the new headquarters and only six and one-half monthly payments for the nine month period
ended September 30, 2009.

FDIC Deposit Insurance Assessment. FDIC insurance premiums increased $934 thousand (36.8%) for the
nine month period ended September 30, 2010 over the same period of 2009. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, the FDICs general assessment rates increased compared to the same period of 2009. The increase in the
general assessment was the result of our voluntary participation in the FDICs Transaction Account Guarantee Program and our capital classification being below well-capitalized. Offsetting this, during the second quarter of 2009, we accrued an
incremental $680 thousand of increased FDIC premiums due to the industry-wide special assessment by the FDIC to bolster the FDIC insurance fund. The FDIC imposed a 5 basis point special assessment on assets less tier 1 capital with a cap of 10-basis
points times deposits. This incremental special assessment was paid to the FDIC at the end of the third quarter 2009. See Third Quarter 2010 Earnings Review, Noninterest Expense, FDIC Deposit Insurance Assessment for additional disclosures.

Mortgage-Servicing Rights Portfolio Amortization and Impairment. Amortization and impairment of the mortgage-servicing rights
portfolio decreased $442 thousand (42.5%) from the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 to the same period of 2009. See Third Quarter 2010 Earnings Review, Noninterest Expense, Mortgage-Servicing Rights Portfolio Amortization and
Impairment for additional disclosures.

Marketing. Marketing expense increased $228 thousand (25.3%) from the nine month period
ended September 30, 2009 to the same period of 2010, primarily due to promotional efforts related to our new MyPal and Smart Savings deposit accounts introduced in March 2010, our CD campaigns that ran through June 30, 2010, and increased
marketing related to mortgage and small business.

Real Estate Acquired in Settlement of Loans Writedowns and Expenses. Real estate
acquired in settlement of loans writedowns and expenses increased $7.5 million from the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 to the same period of 2010. Based on currently available valuation information, the carrying value of these
assets is written down to their fair value less estimated costs. Writedowns on 14 such properties resulted in a provision charged to expense of $7.4 million. Of the total writedowns recorded during the nine month period ended September 30,
2010, 82% related to these 14 properties.

Goodwill impairment. Goodwill impairment of $3.7 million was recognized during the nine
month period ended September 30, 2010. See Third Quarter 2010 Earnings Review, Noninterest Expense, Goodwill Impairment for additional disclosures.

Other. Other noninterest expense remained relatively unchanged from the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 to the same period of 2010.

Included as branch closure expense within this financial statement line item are the expenses associated with banking offices previously consolidated or
relocated that have not yet been subleased or sold. See Third Quarter 2010 Earnings Review, Noninterest Expense, Other for additional disclosures.

##### Table of Contents



Also included within this financial
statement line item for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010 was the provision for loss on unfunded commitments. Due to an increase in historical loss factors from December 31, 2009 to September 30, 2010, the provision for
loss on unfunded commitments increased the reserve by $20 thousand for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010.

Provision
(Benefit) for Income Taxes

As a result of our pretax net loss of $43.0 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, we
recognized an income tax benefit of $15.4 million for the period. During the nine month period ended September 30, 2009, we recognized an income tax benefit of $16.6 million on pretax net loss of $46.6 million. Our effective tax rate was 35.8%
for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010 and 35.5% for the nine month period ended September 30, 2009.

Recently
Issued Applicable Accounting Pronouncements

See Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 1 contained herein for disclosures regarding
accounting pronouncements recently issued, if applicable, and their expected impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.



|Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

As of September 30, 2010, the following table summarizes the forecasted impact on net interest income using a base case scenario given upward and downward movements in interest rates of 100, 200 and
300 basis points based on forecasted assumptions of prepayment speeds, nominal interest rates and loan and deposit repricing rates. Estimates are based on current economic conditions, historical interest rate cycles and other factors deemed to be
relevant. However, underlying assumptions may be impacted in future periods which were not known to management at the time of the issuance of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Therefore, managements assumptions may or may not prove valid.
No assurance can be given that changing economic conditions and other relevant factors impacting our net interest income will not cause actual occurrences to differ from underlying assumptions.
