# Notes to Unaudited
Consolidated Financial Statements

# NOTE 1  NATURE OF
BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Business Activity and Organization
CommunitySouth Bancshares, Inc. (the Company) is a South Carolina
corporation organized for the purpose of owning and controlling all of the capital stock
of CommunitySouth Bank and Trust (the Bank). The Bank is a state chartered
bank organized under the laws of South Carolina in Pickens County, South Carolina. From
inception on March 20, 2004 through January 18, 2005, the Company engaged in
organizational and pre-opening activities necessary to obtain regulatory approvals and to
prepare its subsidiary, the Bank, to commence business as a financial institution. The
Company received approval from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
(FDIC), Federal Reserve (FRB) and the State Board of Financial
Institutions in January 2005.

The Bank began operations on January
18, 2005. The Bank primarily is engaged in the business of accepting deposits insured by
the FDIC, and providing commercial, consumer and mortgage loans to the general public.

The Company sold 3,744,855 shares of
common stock at $8 per share in an initial public offering that was completed on February
15, 2005 (as adjusted for the 5-for-4 stock split effected in the form of a stock dividend
on January 16, 2006 to shareholders of record as of December 15, 2005). The offering
raised $29,430,810, net of offering costs. The directors and officers of the Company
purchased 527,625 shares at $8 per share for a total of $4,221,000.

Basis of Presentation The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions
to Form 10-QSB. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the
three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2006. For further
information, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes dated
December 31, 2005 included in the Companys Form 10-KSB for the year ended December
31, 2005 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The accounting and reporting policies
conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and to
general practices in the banking industry. The Company uses the accrual basis of
accounting.

# NOTE 2  SUMMARY OF
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CommunitySouth
Bancshares, Inc., the parent company, and CommunitySouth Bank and Trust, its wholly owned
subsidiary. All significant intercompany items have been eliminated in the consolidated
statements.

Managements Estimates
 The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles 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 income
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

Disclosure Regarding Segments
 The Company reports as one operating segment, as management reviews the results of
operations of the Company as a single enterprise.

Cash and Cash Equivalents For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on
hand, amounts due from banks, short-term interest bearing deposits and federal funds sold.
Cash and cash equivalents have an original maturity of three months or less.

Concentrations of Credit Risk
 Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of
credit risk, consist principally of loans receivable, investment securities, federal funds
sold and amounts due from banks.

The Company makes loans to
individuals and small businesses for various personal and commercial purposes primarily in
the upstate region of South Carolina. The Companys loan portfolio is not
concentrated in loans to any single borrower or in a relatively small number of borrowers.
Additionally, management is not aware of any concentrations of loans to classes of
borrowers or industries that would be similarly affected by economic conditions.

7

---

In addition to monitoring potential
concentrations of loans to particular borrowers or groups of borrowers, industries and
geographic regions, management monitors exposure to credit risk that could arise from
potential concentrations of lending products and practices such as loans that subject
borrowers to substantial payment increases (e.g. principal deferral periods, loans with
initial interest-only periods, etc), and loans with high loan-to-value ratios.
Additionally, there are industry practices that could subject the Company to increased
credit risk should economic conditions change over the course of a loans life. For
example, the Company makes variable rate loans and fixed rate principal-amortizing loans
with maturities prior to the loan being fully paid (i.e. balloon payment loans). These
loans are underwritten and monitored to manage the associated risks. Management has
determined that there is no concentration of credit risk associated with its lending
policies or practices.

The Company places its deposits and
correspondent accounts with and sells its federal funds to high quality institutions.
Management believes credit risk associated with correspondent accounts is not significant.

Other investments Other
investments consist primarily of the Companys investment in the stock of the Federal
Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (FHLB). The stock has no quoted market value and no
ready market exists. Investment in the FHLB is a condition of borrowing from the FHLB, and
the stock is pledged to collateralize such borrowings. At June 30, 2006, the
Companys investment in FHLB stock was $271,200. The dividend received on this stock
is included in interest and dividends on investments.

Loans Receivable  Loans
are stated at their unpaid principal balance less an allowance for loan losses and net
deferred loan origination fees. Interest income is computed using the simple interest
method and is recorded in the period earned. Loan origination fees collected and certain
loan origination costs are deferred and the net amount is accreted as income using a
method that approximates the level yield method over the life of the related loans.

When serious doubt exists as to the
collectibility of a loan or when a loan becomes ninety days past due as to principal or
interest, interest income generally is discontinued unless the estimated net realizable
value of collateral exceeds the principal balance and accrued interest. When interest
accruals are discontinued, income earned but not collected is reversed.

The Company identifies impaired loans
through its normal internal loan review process. Loans on the Companys problem loan
watch list are considered potentially impaired loans. These loans are evaluated in
determining whether all outstanding principal and interest are expected to be collected.
Loans are not considered impaired if a minimal payment delay occurs and all amounts due,
including accrued interest at the contractual interest rate for the period of delay, are
expected to be collected. At June 30, 2006, management has determined that the Company had
$281,766 in non-accrual loans.

Allowance for Loan Losses
 The Company provides for loan losses using the allowance method. Provisions for
loan losses are added to the allowance through charges to operating expenses. Loans which
are determined to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance and recoveries on
loans previously charged off are added to the allowance. The provision for loan losses is
the amount deemed appropriate by management to establish an adequate allowance to meet the
present and foreseeable risk characteristics of the current loan portfolio.
Managements judgment is based on periodic and regular evaluation of individual
loans, the overall risk characteristics of the various portfolio segments, delinquency
trends, and prevailing and anticipated economic conditions. While management uses the best
information available to make evaluations, future adjustments to the allowance may be
necessary if economic conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making
the evaluation. The allowance for loan losses is subject to periodic evaluation by various
regulatory authorities and may be subject to adjustment upon their examination.

Property and Equipment 
Premises, furniture and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation expense is computed by the straight-line method, based on the estimated
useful lives for furniture and equipment of 5 to 10 years. Leasehold improvements are
amortized over the life of the lease. Maintenance and repairs are charged to current
expense. The costs of major renewals and improvements are capitalized.

Residential Loan Origination
Fees  The Company offers residential loan origination service to its customers
in its immediate market area. The loans are offered on terms and prices offered by the
Companys correspondents and are closed in the name of the correspondents. The
Company receives fees for services it provides in conjunction with the origination
services it provides. The fees are recognized at the time the loans are closed by the
Companys correspondent.

Advertising 
Advertising, promotional, and other business development costs generally are expensed as
incurred. External costs incurred in producing media advertising are expensed the first
time the advertising takes place. External costs relating to direct mailing costs are
expensed in the period in which the direct mailings are sent.

8

---

Income Taxes  Income
taxes are the sum of amounts currently payable to taxing authorities and the net changes
in income taxes payable or refundable in future years. Income taxes deferred to future
years are determined utilizing an asset and liability approach. This method gives
consideration to the future tax consequences associated with differences between financial
accounting and tax bases of certain assets and liabilities which are principally the
allowance for loan losses, depreciable premises and equipment, and net operating loss
carryforwards.

Income (Loss) Per Share 
Basic income (loss) per share represents the net income (loss) allocated to shareholders
divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Dilutive income (loss) per share reflects additional common shares that would have been
outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued. Potential common shares
that may be issued by the Company relate to both outstanding warrants and stock options,
and are determined using the treasury stock method.

Stockbased Compensation
 On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 123(R), Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,
to account for compensation costs under its stock option plans. The Company previously
utilized the intrinsic value method under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (as amended) (APB 25). Under
the intrinsic value method prescribed by APB 25, no compensation costs were recognized for
the Companys stock options because the option exercise price in its plans equals the
market price on the date of grant. Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company only disclosed
the pro forma effects on net income and earnings per share as if the fair value
recognition provisions of SFAS 123(R) had been utilized.

In adopting SFAS No. 123, the Company
elected to use the modified prospective method to account for the transition from the
intrinsic value method to the fair value recognition method. Under the modified
prospective method, compensation cost is recognized from the adoption date forward for all
new stock options granted and for any outstanding unvested awards as if the fair value
method had been applied to those awards as of the date of grant. The following table
illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share as if the fair value based
method had been applied to all outstanding and unvested awards in each period. (in
thousands, except per share amounts)

Off-Balance-Sheet Financial
Instruments  In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into
off-balance-sheet financial instruments consisting of commitments to extend credit and
letters of credit. These financial instruments are recorded in the financial statements
when they become payable by the customer.

Recently Issued Accounting
Standards The following is a summary of recent authoritative pronouncements
that affect accounting, reporting, and disclosure of financial information by the Company:

In February 2006, the FASB issued
SFAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instrumentsan amendment
of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140. This Statement amends SFAS No. 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, and SFAS No.
140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments
of Liabilities. This Statement resolves issues addressed in SFAS No. 133
Implementation Issue No. D1, Application of Statement 133 to Beneficial Interests in
Securitized Financial Assets. SFAS No. 155 is effective for all financial
instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entitys first fiscal year
that begins after September 15, 2006. The Company does not believe that the adoption of
SFAS No. 155 will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations
and cash flows.

In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS
No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assetsan amendment of FASB
Statement No. 140. This Statement amends FASB No. 140, Accounting for
Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities, with
respect to the accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and servicing
liabilities. SFAS No. 156 requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing
liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering
into a servicing contract; requires all separately recognized servicing assets and
servicing liabilities to be initially measured at fair value, if practicable; permits an
entity to choose its subsequent measurement methods for each class of separately
recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities; at its initial adoption, permits a
one-time reclassification of available-for-sale securities to trading securities by
entities with recognized servicing rights, without calling into question the treatment of
other available-for-sale securities under Statement 115, provided that the
available-for-sale securities are identified in some manner as offsetting the
entitys exposure to changes in fair value of servicing assets or servicing
liabilities that a servicer elects to subsequently measure at fair value; and requires
separate presentation of servicing assets and servicing liabilities subsequently measured
at fair value in the statement of financial position and additional disclosures for all
separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. An entity should adopt
SFAS No. 156 as of the beginning of its first fiscal year that begins after September 15,
2006. The Company believes the adoption of SFAS No. 156 will not have a material impact on
its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

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.

Risks and Uncertainties 
In the normal course of its business, the Company encounters two significant types of
risks: economic and regulatory. There are three main components of economic risk: interest
rate risk, credit risk and market risk.

10

---

The Company is subject to interest
rate risk to the degree that its interest-bearing liabilities mature or reprice at
different speeds, or on different basis, than its interest-earning assets. Credit risk is
the risk of default on the Companys loan portfolio that results from a
borrowers inability or unwillingness to make contractually required payments. Market
risk reflects changes in the value of collateral underlying loans receivable and the
valuation of real estate held by the Company.

The Company is subject to the
regulations of various governmental agencies. These regulations can and do change
significantly from period to period. The Company also undergoes periodic examinations by
the regulatory agencies, which may subject it to further changes with respect to asset
valuations, amounts of required loss allowances and operating restrictions from the
regulators judgments based on information available to them at the time of their
examination.

Reclassifications 
Certain captions and amounts in the 2005 financial statements were reclassified to conform
with the 2006 presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on previously reported
net loss or shareholders equity.

# NOTE 3  LEASES

Spartanburg location 
The Company has a ten year lease beginning November 15, 2005 for its Spartanburg office
with an initial monthly rental payment of $6,500, which increases over the term of the
lease up to $9,275 in the tenth year. The lease may be renewed for two consecutive
five-year terms with rental payments increasing 3% each year.

Mauldin location  The
Company has a ten year lease beginning November 15, 2005 for its Mauldin office with an
initial monthly rental payment of $2,417, which increases over the life of the lease up to
$2,872 per month in years seven through ten. The lease may be renewed for one five-year
term at a monthly rent of $3,302.

Greer location  The
Company has a ten year lease for its Greer office with an initial monthly rental payment
of $4,200, which will begin upon completion of construction which is anticipated to be
November 1, 2006.

Anderson location  The
Company has a ten year lease beginning June 1, 2005 for its Anderson office with an
initial monthly rental payment of $3,690, which increases over the life of the lease up to
$4,803 per month in years six through ten. The lease may be renewed for two consecutive
five-year terms with rental payments increasing 2% each year.

# NOTE 4  RELATED
PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Certain parties (principally certain
directors and executive officers of the Company, their immediate families and business
interests) (affiliates) are loan customers in the normal course of business
with the Bank. These loans are made on substantially the same terms, including interest
rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with
unrelated persons and do not involve more than the normal risk of collectibility.

# Overview

CommunitySouth Bancshares, Inc. is a
bank holding company headquartered in Easley, South Carolina. Our subsidiary,
CommunitySouth Bank and Trust, opened for business on January 18, 2005. The principal
business activity of the bank is to provide banking services to domestic markets,
principally in the upstate of South Carolina. The deposits of the bank are insured by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. All share and per share information in this report
has been adjusted for the 5-for-4 stock split effected in the form of a stock dividend
paid on January 16, 2006 to shareholders of record as of December 15, 2005.

Like most community banks, we derive
most of our income from interest we receive on our loans and investments. Our primary
source of funds for making these loans and investments is our deposits, on which we pay
interest. Consequently, one of the key measures of our success is our amount of net
interest income, or the difference between the income on our interest-earning assets, such
as loans and investments, and the expense on our interest-bearing liabilities, such as
deposits. Another key measure is the spread between the yield we earn on these
interest-earning assets and the rate we pay on our interest-bearing liabilities.

Of course, there are risks inherent
in all loans, so we maintain an allowance for loan losses to absorb probable losses on
existing loans that may become uncollectible. We establish and maintain this allowance by
charging a provision for loan losses against our operating earnings. In the following
section we have included a detailed discussion of this process.

In addition to earning interest on
our loans and investments, we earn income through fees and other expenses we charge to our
customers. We describe the various components of this noninterest income, as well as our
noninterest expense, in the following discussion.

# Results of Operations

Three Months ended June
30, 2006 and 2005

Overview

Our net income was $260,255 for the
three months ended June 30, 2006. We incurred a net loss of $312,122 for the three months
ended June 30, 2005. Since we began operations in the first quarter of 2005, we have
experienced significant growth, which has led to a substantial increase in revenues and
expenses. Due to our growth over the past year, we have now attained a level of earning
assets that supports our costs and we are currently operating profitably. For the three
months ended June 30, 2006, we realized $3,318,944 in interest income, of which $201,705
was from investment activities and $3,117,239 was from loan activities. For the three
months ended June 30, 2005, we realized $968,859 in interest income, of which $56,092 was
from investment activities and $912,767 was from loan activities. The substantial increase
in our interest income is primarily a result of our rapid loan growth during our first
year of operation. We anticipate the growth in loans will continue to drive the growth in
assets and the growth in interest income. The primary source of funding for our loan
portfolio is deposits that are acquired both locally and via the national brokered
certificate market. We incurred interest expense of $1,540,887 for the three months ended
June 30, 2006. We incurred interest expense of $295,529 in the second quarter of 2005. All
of the interest expense was related to deposit accounts.

Provision for Loan Losses

Our provision for loan losses for the
three months ended June 30, 2006 was $496,000 compared to $447,000 for the comparable
prior year period. The increase was the result of increasing the provision for loan losses
to 1.50% of new loan growth during the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to 1.35%
for the same period in 2005.

Noninterest Income

We had noninterest income of $143,752
and $85,984 for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2006 and June 30, 2005,
respectively. Mortgage origination fee income for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was
$122,518. We had $81,396 in mortgage origination fee income in the second quarter of 2005.
The increase was the result of additions to our mortgage lending staff over the past year.
If interest rates continue to rise, we would not anticipate this type of continued growth.

Noninterest Expense

We incurred noninterest expense of
$1,167,050 during the three months ended June 30, 2006. Included in the expense was
$634,630 of salaries and benefits, $55,600 of occupancy expenses, $35,853 of professional
expense, $71,709 of data processing expense, and $66,877 of advertising expense. We also
incurred $36,314 of expenses related to supplies. The noninterest expense incurred in the
three months ended June 30, 2005 was $728,756. Included in the expense was $396,210 of
salaries and benefits, $31,085 of occupancy expenses, $37,456 of professional expense,
$29,158 of data processing expense, and $69,002 of advertising expense. We also incurred
$15,744 of expenses related to supplies.

For the three months ended June 30,
2006, we incurred $93,040 in other fixed asset expenses, which included $80,310 in
depreciation and $12,730 in equipment maintenance and rental. For the three months ended
June 30, 2005, we incurred $45,377 in other fixed asset expense, which included $40,045 in
depreciation and $5,332 in equipment maintenance and rental. We incurred $55,600 and
$31,085 in occupancy expense related to our offices in Easley, Spartanburg, Mauldin and
Greenwood for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The increase in
non-interest expense is the result of the addition of new branches and personnel over the
past year.

As described above under Note 2
 Recently Issued Accounting Standards, beginning with calendar year 2006, SFAS No.
123(R) requires us to measure all employee stock-based compensation awards using a fair
value method and record this expense in our financial statements. Consequently, our
noninterest expense includes a compensation expense of $49,550 for the fair value of stock
options we granted in the three months ended June 30, 2006.

Six Months ended June 30,
2006 and 2005

Overview

Our net income was $452,541 for the
six months ended June 30, 2006. We incurred a net loss of $866,056 for the six months
ended June 30, 2005. We began operations in the six-month period ended June 30, 2005.
Since we began operations in the first quarter of 2005, we have experienced significant
growth, which has led to a substantial increase in revenues and expenses. Due to our
growth over the past year, we have now attained a level of earning assets that supports
our costs and we are currently operating profitably. For the six months ended June 30,
2006, we realized $5,955,654 in interest income, of which $385,451 was from investment
activities and $5,570,203 was from loan activities. For the six months ended June 30,
2005, we realized $1,262,161 in interest income, of which $128,806 was from investment
activities and $1,133,355 was from loan activities. We incurred interest expense of
$2,652,191 for the six months ended June 30, 2006. We incurred interest expense of
$315,778 in the six months ended June 30, 2005. All of the interest expense was related to
deposit accounts.

Provision for Loan Losses

Our provision for loan losses for the
six months ended June 30, 2006 was $834,500 compared to $957,000 for the comparable prior
year period. As discussed above, we increased the provision for loan losses to 1.50% of
new loan growth during the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to 1.35% for the same
period in 2005. However, the loan growth for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was less
than that of the period ended June 30, 2005. The growth for the period ended June 30, 2005
included the transfer of loans warehoused at a correspondent bank which were funded prior
to the bank opening.

Noninterest Income

We had noninterest income of $346,510
and $126,491 for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2006 and June 30, 2005,
respectively. Mortgage origination fee income for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was
$287,979. We had $117,782 in mortgage origination fee income in the six month period ended
June 30, 2005. The increase was the result of additions to our mortgage lending staff over
the past year.

Noninterest Expense

We incurred noninterest expense of
$2,265,283 during the six months ended June 30, 2006. Included in the expense was
$1,258,062 of salaries and benefits, $126,143 of occupancy expenses, $72,471 of

# Assets and Liabilities

General

At June 30, 2006, total assets had
increased 48% to $203.0 million as compared to $136.8 million as of December 31, 2005.
Gross loans increased $55.5 million, or 48% during the first six months of 2006. Federal
funds sold increased to $23.9 million as of June 30, 2006 compared to $17.5 million at
December 31, 2005. Cash increased $1.8 million, or 111%, since December 31, 2005. Deposits
increased $66.0 million, or 62%, during the first six months of 2006. At June 30, 2006,
shareholders equity was $28.8 million.

Investment Securities

Other investments increased $288,500,
principally due to the purchase of additional FHLB stock.

Loans

Since loans typically provide higher
interest yields than other types of interest earning assets, we allocate the majority of
our earning assets to our loan portfolio. Gross loans increased by $55.5 million, or 48%,
during the first six months of 2006. Balances within major loan categories are as follows:

We will discontinue accrual of
interest on a loan when we conclude it is doubtful that we will be able to collect
interest from the borrower. We will reach this conclusion by taking into account factors
such as the borrowers financial condition, economic and business conditions, and the
results of our previous collection efforts. Generally, we will place a delinquent loan in
nonaccrual status when the loan becomes 90 days or more past due. When we place a loan in
nonaccrual status, we will reverse all interest which has been accrued on the loan but
remains unpaid and we will deduct this interest from earnings as a reduction of reported
interest income. We will not accrue any additional interest on the loan balance until we
conclude the collection of both principal and interest is reasonably certain. At June 30,
2006, there was $281,766, or 0.16% in loans that were non-accruing.

Provision and Allowance
for Loan Losses

We have established an allowance for
loan losses through a provision for loan losses charged to expense on our statement of
income. The allowance for loan losses represents an amount which we believe is adequate to
absorb probable losses on existing loans that may become uncollectible. Our judgment as to
the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is based on a number of assumptions about
future events, which we believe to be reasonable, but which may or may not prove to be
accurate. Our determination of the allowance for loan losses is based on evaluations of
the collectibility 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 affect the borrowers ability to repay, the amount and quality of
collateral securing the loans, our historical loan loss experience, and a review of
specific problem loans. We also consider subjective issues such as changes in the lending
policies and procedures, changes in the local/national economy, changes in volume or type
of credits, changes in volume/severity of problem loans, quality of loan review and board
of director oversight, concentrations of credit, and peer group comparisons. Due to our
limited operating history, to date the provision for loan losses has been made primarily
as a result of our assessment of general loan loss risk compared to banks of similar size
and maturity. Due to our short operating history, the loans in our loan portfolio and our
lending relationships are of very recent origin. In general, loans do not begin to show
signs of credit deterioration or default until they have been outstanding for some period
of time, a process known as seasoning. As a result, a portfolio of older loans will
usually behave more predictably than a newer portfolio. Because our loan portfolio is new,
the current level of delinquencies and defaults may not be representative of the level
that will prevail when the portfolio becomes more seasoned, which may be higher than
current levels. If delinquencies and defaults increase, we may be required to increase our
provision for loan losses, which would adversely affect our results of operations and
financial condition. Periodically, we adjust the amount of the allowance based on changing
circumstances.

16

---

We charge recognized losses to the
allowance and add subsequent recoveries back to the allowance for loan losses. There can
be no assurance that charge-offs of loans in future periods will not exceed the allowance
for loan losses as estimated at any point in time or that provisions for loan losses will
not be significant to a particular accounting period.

Deposits

Our primary source of funds for loans
and investments is our deposits. We have chosen to obtain a portion of our certificates of
deposits from areas outside of our market. The deposits obtained outside of our market
area generally have comparable rates compared to rates being offered for certificates of
deposits in our local market. As of June 30, 2006, total deposits had increased by $66.0
million, or 62%, from December 31, 2005. The largest increase was in time deposits less
than $100,000, which increased $29.1 million, or 185%, from December 31, 2005 to June 30,
2006. The increase was attributed to new accounts and the opening of our Spartanburg
branch in January 2006.

# Liquidity

Liquidity is the ability to meet
current and future obligations through liquidation or maturity of existing assets or the
acquisition of liabilities. We manage both assets and liabilities to achieve appropriate
levels of liquidity. Cash and short-term investments are our primary sources of asset
liquidity. These funds provide a cushion against short-term fluctuations in cash flow from
both deposits and loans. Individual and commercial deposits and borrowings are our primary
source of funds for credit activities. At June 30, 2006, we had lines of credit with
unrelated banks totaling $11.1 million. These lines, which are unsecured, are available on
a one-to-seven day basis for general corporate purposes. We believe our liquidity sources
are adequate to meet our operating needs as well as our construction commitments. The
level of liquidity is measured by the cash and cash equivalents-to-total assets ratio,
which was at 13.5% at June 30, 2006.

As members of the Federal Home Loan
Bank of Atlanta, we have credit availability of up to 10% of the banks total assets
which meant $20.3 million was available as of June 30, 2006. Advances under this credit
facility are subject to qualifying collateral.

# Impact of Off-Balance
Sheet Instruments

Through the operations of our bank,
we have made contractual commitments to extend credit in the ordinary course of our
business activities. These commitments are legally binding agreements to lend money to our
customers at predetermined interest rates for a specified period of time. At June 30,
2006, we had issued commitments to extend credit of $38.6 million through various types of
lending arrangements. We evaluate each customers credit worthiness on a case-by-case
basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by us upon extension of
credit, is based on our credit evaluation of the borrower. Collateral varies but may
include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, commercial and
residential real estate. We manage the credit risk on these commitments by subjecting them
to normal underwriting and risk management processes. The following table summarizes our
off-balance-sheet financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk:

|                             | June 30, 2006 | December 31, 2005

# Capital Resources

Total shareholders equity
increased from $28.3 million at December 31, 2005 to $28.8 million at June 30, 2006. The
increase is principally due to the net income for the period of $452,541.

The Federal Reserve and bank
regulatory agencies require bank holding companies and financial institutions to maintain
capital at adequate levels based on a percentage of assets and off-balance sheet
exposures, adjusted for risk weights ranging from 0% to 100%. The Federal Reserve
guidelines contain an exemption from the capital requirements for small bank holding
companies. On March 31, 2006, the Federal Reserve changed the definition of a small
bank holding company to bank holding companies with less than $500 million in total assets
(an increase from $150 million under the prior rule). However, bank holding companies will
not qualify under the new definition if they (i) are engaged in significant nonbanking
activities either directly or indirectly through a subsidiary, (ii) conduct significant
off-balance sheet activities, including securitizations or managing or administering
assets for third parties, or (iii) have a material amount of debt or equity securities
(including trust preferred securities) outstanding that are registered with the SEC.
Although we have less than $500 million in assets, it is unclear at this point whether we
otherwise meet the requirements for qualifying as a small bank holding
company. According to the Federal Reserve Board, the revision of the criterion to
exclude any bank holding company that has outstanding a material amount of SEC-registered
debt or equity securities reflects the fact that SEC registrants typically exhibit a
degree of complexity of operations and access to multiple funding sources that warrants
excluding them from the new policy statement and subjecting them to the capital
guidelines. In the adopting release for the new rule, the Federal Reserve Board stated
that what constitutes a material amount of SEC-registered debt or equity for a
particular bank holding company depends on the size, activities and condition of the
relevant bank holding company. In lieu of using fixed measurable parameters of materiality
across all institutions, the rule provides the Federal Reserve with supervisory
flexibility in determining, on a case-by-case basis, the significance or materiality of
activities or securities outstanding such that a bank holding company should be excluded
from the policy statement and subject to the capital guidelines. Prior to adoption of this
new rule, our holding company was subject to these capital guidelines, as it had less more
than $150 million in assets. Until the Federal Reserve provides further guidance on the
new rules, it will be unclear whether our holding company will be subject to the exemption
from the capital requirements for small bank holding companies. Regardless, our bank falls
under these minimum capital requirements as set per bank regulatory agencies.

Under the capital adequacy
guidelines, regulatory capital is classified into two tiers. These guidelines require an
institution to maintain a certain level of Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital to risk-weighted
assets. Tier 1 capital consists of common shareholders equity, excluding the
unrealized gain or loss on securities available for sale, minus certain intangible assets.
In determining the amount of risk-weighted assets, all assets, including certain
off-balance sheet assets, are multiplied by a risk-weight factor of 0% to 100% based on
the risks believed to be inherent in the type of asset. Tier 2 capital consists of Tier 1
capital plus the general reserve for loan losses, subject to certain limitations. We are
also required to maintain capital at a minimum level based on total average assets, which
is known as the Tier 1 leverage ratio.

At both the holding company and bank
level, we are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the
federal banking agencies.  To be considered adequately capitalized at
both the holding company and bank level, we must maintain a minimum total risk-based
capital of 8%, with at least 4% being Tier 1 capital. In addition, we must maintain a
minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 4%. To be considered
well-capitalized, we must maintain total risk-based capital of at least 10%,
Tier 1 capital of at least 6%, and a leverage ratio of at least 5%.

The following table summarizes the
capital amounts and ratios of the bank.

|(dollars in thousands)                 | June 30, 2006 | December 31, 2005
|-------------------------------------- | ------------- | -----------------

|Total capital to risk weighted assets  |               |                  
|Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets |               |

# Critical Accounting
Policies

We have adopted various accounting
policies that govern the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States and with general practices within the banking industry in the preparation of
our financial statements. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to
the financial statements in Item 1.

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

We believe the allowance for loan
losses is the critical accounting policy that requires the most significant judgment and
estimates used in preparation of our consolidated financial statements. Some of the more
critical judgments supporting the amount of our allowance for loan losses include
judgments about the credit worthiness of borrowers, the estimated value of the underlying
collateral, the assumptions about cash flow, determination of loss factors for estimating
credit losses, the impact of current events, and conditions, and other factors impacting
the level of probable inherent losses. Under different conditions or using different
assumptions, the actual amount of credit losses incurred by us may be different from
managements estimates provided in our consolidated financial statements. Refer to
the portion of this discussion that addresses our allowance for loan losses for a more
complete discussion of our processes and methodology for determining our allowance for
loan losses.

# Item 3.   Controls and
Procedures.

As
of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the
supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and
procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based upon that evaluation, our
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our current
disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of June 30, 2006. There have been no
significant changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the fiscal
quarter ended June 30, 2006 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

The
design of any system of controls and procedures is based in part upon certain assumptions
about the likelihood of future events. There can be no assurance that any design will
succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of
how remote.
