AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER



     THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (this "Agreement") is
made and entered into as of August 5, 1999 by and among Haywood
Bancshares, Inc. ("Haywood"), a corporation organized and
existing under the Laws of the State of North Carolina, with its
principal office located in Waynesville, North Carolina, Century
South Banks, Inc. ("CSBI"), a corporation organized and existing
under the Laws of the State of Georgia, with its principal
office located in Dahlonega, Georgia and HBI Acquisition Corp.

CSBI.

                            PREAMBLE

     The Boards of Directors of Haywood and CSBI are of the
opinion that the transaction described herein is in the best
interest of the parties and their respective shareholders.  This
Agreement provides for the merger of HAC with and into Haywood
such that Haywood will become a wholly owned subsidiary of CSBI
(the "Merger").  At the Effective Time of the Merger, the
outstanding shares of the capital stock of Haywood shall be
converted into the right to receive shares of the common stock
of CSBI (except as provided herein).  As a result, shareholders
of Haywood shall become shareholders of CSBI. The transaction
described in this Agreement is subject to the approvals of the
shareholders of Haywood and HAC, applicable Regulatory
Authorities and the satisfaction of certain other conditions
described in this Agreement.  It is the intention of the parties
to this Agreement that the Merger for federal income tax
purposes shall qualify as a "reorganization" within the meaning
of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code.  In connection
with the execution of this Agreement, Haywood and CSBI will
enter into a stock option agreement (the "Stock Option
Agreement") in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.

     Immediately following the Closing of the Merger, Haywood
Savings Bank, Inc., SSB ("Bank"), a North Carolina-chartered
savings bank, Great Smokies Financial Corporation, a North
Carolina corporation, and Great Smokies Insurance Agency, Inc.,
a North Carolina corporation, each a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Haywood, with their main offices located in Waynesville, North
Carolina, will remain in existence under their respective
Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, as in effect immediately
prior to the Effective Time, as  wholly-owned subsidiaries of
Haywood.

     Certain terms used in this Agreement are defined in Section
11.1 of this Agreement.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above and the
mutual warranties, representations, covenants and agreements set

this Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger
and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, the
shares of the constituent corporations shall be converted as
follows:

          (a)  Each share of CSBI Common Stock issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain

$24.00 less the Valuation Period Market Value divided by the
Valuation Period Market Value or (ii) the Valuation Period
Market Value of CSBI Common Stock is greater than $27.00 per
share, then the Exchange Ratio shall be decreased by an amount

Value.

          (c)  Subject to adjustment as outlined above and as

Share Stock Consideration.
                           3

<PAGE>
     3.2  Cash Election.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Holders
of Haywood Common Stock who beneficially own less than 100
shares shall receive cash consideration in lieu of receiving
CSBI Common Stock in the Merger.  In addition, all other holders
of Haywood Common Stock may elect to receive cash consideration
in lieu of receiving CSBI Common Stock in accordance with the
election procedures set forth below in this Section 3.2.
Holders who are to receive cash in lieu of exchanging their
shares of Haywood Common Stock for CSBI Common Stock as
specified below shall receive an amount in cash (the "Per Share
Cash Consideration") in respect of each share of Haywood Common
Stock that is so converted equal to the Exchange Ratio (subject
to adjustment of the Exchange Ratio as set forth in Section
3.1(b) of this Agreement) and the product of the Valuation
Period Market Value.  For purposes of this Agreement:

          (i)  "Valuation Period Market Value" shall mean the
average of the closing sales prices for CSBI Common Stock as
reported on the NASDAQ (as reported in The Wall Street Journal
or, in the absence thereof, by another authoritative source)
during the Valuation Period; and

          (ii) "Valuation Period" shall mean the 20 consecutive
trading day period during which the shares of CSBI Common Stock
are traded on the NASDAQ ending on the 10th calendar day
immediately prior to the anticipated Effective Time.

     An election form and other appropriate and customary
transmittal materials ("Election Form") (which shall specify
that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to
the certificates theretofore representing Haywood Common Stock
("Old Certificates")) shall pass, only upon proper delivery of
such Old Certificates to an exchange agent designated by CSBI
(the "Exchange Agent") shall be mailed together with the Proxy
Statement on such date as Haywood and CSBI shall mutually agree
("Mailing Date") to each holder of record of Haywood Common
Stock as of the record date for eligibility to vote at the
Special Meeting.

     Each Election Form shall permit a holder (or the beneficial
owner through appropriate and customary documentation and
instructions) of Haywood Common Stock to elect to receive cash
with respect to all or a portion of such holder's Haywood Common
Stock (shares as to which the election is made being "Cash
Election Shares").  The "Cash Election Amount" shall be equal to
the Per Share Cash Consideration multiplied by the total number
of Cash Election Shares.  Shares as to which the holder (or
beneficial owner elects to receive the Per Share Stock
Consideration (if eligible to so elect) are referred to herein
as "Stock Election Shares."

     Any share of Haywood Common Stock with respect to which the
holder (or the beneficial owner, as the case may be) shall not
have submitted to the Exchange Agent an effective, properly
completed Election Form on or before 5:00 p.m. on the 20th day
following the Mailing Date (the "Election Deadline") shall be
converted either into the Per Share Stock consideration or the
Per Share Cash Consideration at the election of CSBI (such
shares being "No Election Shares") with the exception that
shares held by a holder of less than 100 shares shall be deemed
to be Cash Election Shares.

                           4
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
     CSBI shall make available one or more Election Forms as may
be reasonably requested by all persons who become holders (or
beneficial owners) of Haywood Common Stock between the Mailing
Date and the close of business on the business day prior to the
Election Deadline, and Haywood shall provide to the Exchange
Agent all information reasonably necessary for it to perform as
specified herein.

     Any such election shall have been properly made only if the
Exchange Agent shall have actually received a properly completed
Election Form by the Election Deadline.  An Election Form shall
be deemed properly completed only if accompanied by one or more
certificates (or customary affidavits and indemnification
regarding the loss or destruction of such certificates or the
guaranteed delivery of such certificates) representing all
shares of Haywood Common Stock covered by such Election Form,
together with duly executed transmittal materials included in
the Election Form.  Any Election Form may be revoked or changed
by the person submitting such Election Form at or prior to the
Election Deadline.  In the event an Election Form is revoked
prior to the Election Deadline, the shares of Haywood Common
Stock represented by such Election Form shall become No Election
Shares and CSBI shall cause the certificates representing
Haywood Common Stock to be promptly returned without charge to
the person submitting the Election Form upon written request to
that effect from the person who submitted the Election Form.
Subject to the terms of this Agreement and of the Election Form,
the Exchange Agent shall have reasonable discretion to determine
whether any election, revocation or change has been properly or
timely made and to disregard immaterial defects in the Election
Forms, and any good faith decisions of the Exchange Agent
regarding such matters shall be binding and conclusive.  Neither
CSBI nor the Exchange Agent shall be under any obligation to
notify any person of any defect in an Election Form.

     3.3  Allocation.  Within five business days after the
Election Deadline, unless the Effective Time has not yet
occurred, in which case as soon thereafter as practicable, CSBI
shall cause the Exchange  Agent to effect the allocation among
the holders of Haywood Common Stock so that 50% of the aggregate
consideration paid in exchange for shares of Haywood Common
Stock in the Merger (the "Total Merger Consideration") shall be
paid in CSBI Common Stock (the "Stock Amount") and 50% of the
Total Merger Consideration shall be paid in cash (the "Cash
Amount").  The allocation shall be effected by the Exchange
Agent as follows:

          (i)  If the Cash Amount is greater than the Cash
Election Amount, then:

               (a)  each Cash Election Share shall be converted
into the right to receive an amount of cash equal to the Per
Share Cash Consideration;

               (b)  the Exchange Agent will select, on a pro
rata basis, first from among the holders of No Election Shares
and then, if necessary, from among the holders of Stock Election
Shares, a sufficient number of such shares ("Cash Designee
Shares") such that the sum of Cash Designee Shares and Cash
Election Shares multiplied by the Per Share Cash Consideration
equals as closely as practicable the Cash Amount (each Cash
Designee Share shall be converted into the right to receive an
amount of cash equal to the Per Share Cash Consideration); and

                           5
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
               (c)  any Stock Election Shares and any No
Election Shares, in each case, not so selected as Cash Designee
Shares shall be converted into the right to receive the Per
Share Stock Consideration.

          (ii) If the Cash Amount is less than the Cash Election
Amount, then:

               (a)  each Stock Election Share and each No
Election Share shall be converted into the right to receive the
Per Share Stock Consideration;

               (b)  the Exchange Agent will select, on a pro
rata basis from among the holders of Cash Election Shares, a
sufficient number of such shares ("Stock Designee Shares") such
that the number of Stock Designee Shares multiplied by the Per
Share Cash Consideration equals as closely as practicable the
difference between the Cash Election Amount and the Cash Amount
(the Stock Designee Shares shall be converted into the right to
receive the Per Share Stock Consideration); and

               (c)  any Cash Election Shares not so selected
as Stock Designee Shares shall be converted into the right to
receive an amount of cash equal to the Per Share Cash
Consideration.

     In the event that the Exchange Agent is required pursuant
to this Section 3.3 to designate from among all Stock Election
Shares the Cash Designee Shares to receive cash, each holder of
Stock Election Shares shall be allocated a pro rata portion of
the remainder of the total Cash Designee Share less the number
of No Election Shares which are Cash Designee Shares.  Such
proration shall reflect the proportion that the number of Stock
Election Shares of each holder of Stock Election Shares bears to
the total number of Stock Election Shares.  In the event the
Exchange Agent is required pursuant to this Section 3.3 to
designate from among all holders of Cash Election Shares the
Stock Designee Shares to receive the Per Share Stock
Consideration, each holder of Cash Election Shares shall be
allocated a pro rata portion of the total Stock Designee Shares.
Such proration shall reflect the proportion that the number of
Cash Election Shares of each holder of Cash Election Shares
bears to the total number of Cash Election Shares.

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Section 3.3, CSBI may at CSBI's sole discretion, waive the
maintenance of the Cash Amount if the difference between the
Cash Amount and the aggregate amount of cash elected by holders
of Haywood Common Stock, including the cash paid for fractional
shares is less than 10% of the Cash Amount.

     3.4  Adjustment to Exchange Ratio. In the event that
Haywood's consolidated shareholders' equity (as determined
below) is less than $21,000,000, there shall be an adjustment to
the Exchange Ratio.  In such event, the Exchange Ratio shall be
adjusted by multiplying it by a fraction the numerator of which
is Haywood's consolidated shareholders' equity (as determined
below) and the denominator of which is $21,000,000.  The
determination of Haywood's consolidated shareholders' equity, as
adjusted, shall be based on Haywood's consolidated balance sheet
prepared in accordance with GAAP dated as of the end of the
month immediately preceding the Effective Time, including (i)
all normal and recurring adjustments necessary in accordance
with GAAP; (ii) all adjustments necessary to record obligations
with respect to

                           6
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
benefit obligations of Haywood or any of its subsidiaries under
its employment agreements, deferred compensation agreements,
directors' retirement plan, severance plan, and retention bonus
plan assuming a change in control triggering event; (iii) all
adjustments necessary to record estimated obligations payable by
Haywood or any of its subsidiaries upon the termination of its
defined benefit
pension plan; and (iv) all accruals and liabilities for fees and
expenses of consultants, attorneys, accountants and the like in
connection with the Merger and the due diligence conducted by
Haywood in regard to the Merger other than (x) the fees to be
paid to Trident , (y) the direct costs associated with printing
and mailing of the Proxy Statement, and (z) any costs, fees and
expenses reasonably and directly incurred by Haywood and Bank in
connection with any charter conversion by  Bank.

     3.5  Anti-Dilution Provisions.  In the event Haywood or
CSBI changes the number of shares of Haywood Common Stock or
CSBI Common Stock, respectively, issued and outstanding prior to
the Effective Time as a result of a stock split, stock dividend
or similar recapitalization with respect to such stock and the
record date therefor (in the case of a stock dividend) or the
effective date therefor (in the case of a stock split or similar
recapitalization) shall be prior to the Effective Time, the
Total Merger Consideration shall be proportionately adjusted.

     3.6  Shares Held by Haywood or CSBI.  Each of the shares of
Haywood Common Stock held by Haywood or by any CSBI Companies,
in each case other than in a fiduciary capacity or as a result
of debts previously contracted, shall be canceled and retired at
the Effective Time, and no consideration shall be issued in
exchange therefor.

     3.7  Fractional Shares.  Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, each holder of shares of Haywood
Common Stock exchanged pursuant to the Merger, who would
otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of
CSBI Common Stock (after taking into account all Old
Certificates delivered by such holder), shall receive, in lieu
thereof, cash (without interest) in an amount equal to such
fractional part of a share of Haywood Common Stock multiplied by
the market value of one share of CSBI Common Stock at the
Effective Time.  The market value of one share of CSBI Common
Stock at the Effective Time shall be the last sales price of the
CSBI Common Stock on NASDAQ on the last business day preceding
the Effective Time. No such holder will be entitled to
dividends, voting rights or any other rights as a shareholder in
respect of any fractional shares.

                           ARTICLE 4
                       EXCHANGE OF SHARES

     4.1  Exchange Procedures.  (a) Immediately prior to the
Effective Time, CSBI shall deposit, or shall cause to be
deposited, with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of the
holders of Old Certificates for exchange in accordance with this
Article 4, certificates representing the shares of CSBI Common
Stock ("New Certificates") and an estimated amount of cash (such
cash and New Certificates, together with any dividends or
distributions with respect thereto (without any interest
thereon), being hereinafter referred to as the "Exchange Fund")
to be paid pursuant to this Article 4 in exchange for
outstanding shares of Haywood Common Stock.

                           7
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
          (b)  Within 20 days after the Effective Date, CSBI
shall send or cause to be sent to each former holder of record
of shares  (other than Cash Election Shares or Treasury Shares)
of Haywood Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time
transmittal materials for use in exchanging such shareholder's
Old Certificates for the consideration set forth in this Article
3.  CSBI shall cause the New Certificates into which shares of a
shareholder's Haywood Common Stock are converted on the
Effective Date and/or any check in respect of the Per Share Cash
Consideration and any fractional share interests or dividends or
distributions which such person shall be entitled to receive to
be delivered to such shareholders upon delivery to the Exchange
Agent of Old Certificates representing such shares of Haywood
Common Stock (or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to CSBI and
the Exchange Agent, if any of such certificates are lost, stolen
or destroyed) owned by such shareholder.  No interest will be
paid on any such cash to be paid pursuant to Article 3 upon such
delivery.

          (c)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the
Exchange Agent nor any party hereto shall be liable to any
former holder of Haywood Common Stock for any amount properly
delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned
property, escheat or similar laws.

          (d)  No dividends or other distributions with respect
to CSBI Common Stock  with a record date occurring after the
Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered
Old Certificate representing shares of Haywood Common Stock
converted in the Merger into shares of such CSBI Common Stock
until the holder thereof shall surrender such Old Certificate in
accordance with this Article 4.  After the surrender of an Old
Certificate in accordance with this Article 4, the record holder
thereof shall be entitled to receive any such dividends or other
distributions, without any interest thereon, which theretofore
had become payable with respect to shares of CSBI Common Stock
represented by such Old Certificates.

          (e)  Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains
unclaimed by the shareholders of Haywood for 12 months after the
Effective Time shall be paid to CSBI.  Any shareholders of
Haywood who have not theretofore complied with this Article 4
shall thereafter look only to CSBI for payment of the shares of
CSBI Common Stock, cash in lieu of any fractional shares and
unpaid dividends and distributions on the CSBI Common Stock
deliverable in respect of each share of Haywood Common Stock
such shareholder holds as determined pursuant to this Agreement,
in each case, without any interest thereon.

     4.2  Rights of Former Shareholders.  At the Effective Time,
the stock transfer books of Haywood shall be closed as to
holders of Haywood Common Stock immediately prior to the
Effective Time, and no transfer of Haywood Common Stock by any
such holder shall thereafter be made or recognized.  Until
surrendered for exchange in accordance with the provisions of
Section 4.1 of this Agreement, each certificate theretofore
representing shares of Haywood Common Stock (other than shares
to be canceled pursuant to Section 3.6 of this Agreement) shall
from and after the Effective Time represent for all purposes
only the right to receive the consideration provided in Sections
3.1 and 3.2 of this Agreement in exchange therefor.  To the
extent permitted by Law, former shareholders of record of
Haywood shall be entitled to vote after the Effective Time at
any meeting of CSBI shareholders the number of whole shares
of CSBI Common Stock into which their respective shares of
Haywood Common  Stock are converted, regardless of whether such
holders have exchanged their certificates representing


                          8
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Haywood Common Stock for certificates representing CSBI Common
Stock in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
Whenever a dividend or other distribution is declared by CSBI on
the CSBI Common Stock, the record date for which is at or after
the Effective Time, the declaration shall include dividends or
other distributions on all shares issuable pursuant to this
Agreement, but no dividend or other distribution payable to the
holders of record of CSBI Common Stock as of any time subsequent
to the Effective Time shall be delivered to the holder of any
certificate representing shares of Haywood Common Stock issued
and outstanding at the Effective Time until such holder
surrenders such certificate for exchange as provided in Section
4.1 of this Agreement.  However, upon surrender of such Haywood
Common Stock certificate, both the CSBI Common Stock certificate
(together with all such undelivered dividends or other
distributions without interest) and any undelivered cash
payments to be paid for fractional share interests (without
interest) shall be delivered and paid with respect to each share
represented by such certificate.

Haywood has the corporate power and authority to carry on its
business as now conducted and to own, lease and operate its
Assets. Neither Haywood nor any Subsidiary owns any property or
conducts any business outside of the State of North Carolina
which would require any of them to be qualified as a foreign

have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse
Effect on Haywood.

of the transactions contemplated herein, including the Merger,
have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate
action in respect thereof on the part of Haywood, subject to the
approval of this Agreement by the holders of at least a majority
of the outstanding shares of Haywood Common Stock, which is the
only  shareholder vote required for approval of this Agreement
and consummation of the Merger by Haywood.  Subject to such
requisite shareholder approval and Consents of applicable
Regulatory Authorities, this Agreement represents a legal, valid
and binding obligation of Haywood, enforceable against Haywood
in accordance with its terms (except in all cases as such
enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar Laws affecting

          (b)  Except as Previously Disclosed, neither the
execution and delivery of this Agreement by Haywood nor the

Haywood's Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, or (ii)
constitute or result in a Default under, or require any Consent
pursuant to, or result in the creation of any Lien on either
Haywood or any Subsidiary or all of them under, any Contract or
Permit of either Haywood or any Subsidiary or all of them, where
such Default or Lien, or any failure to obtain such Consent, is
reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a
Material Adverse Effect on Haywood, or (iii) subject to receipt
of the requisite approvals referred to in Section 9.1(a) and (b)
of this Agreement, violate any Law or Order applicable to either
Haywood or Bank or both or any of their respective Material

banking and securities Laws and rules of the AMEX, and other
than Consents required from Regulatory Authorities, and other
than notices to or filings with the IRS or the Pension Benefit
Guaranty Corporation with respect to any employee benefit plans,
and other than Consents, filings or notifications which, if not

Merger and the other transactions contemplated in this
Agreement.

     5.3  Capital Stock and Other Securities.

in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on Haywood.

due by Haywood or Bank for the period or periods through and
including the date of the respective Haywood Financial
Statements has been made and is reflected on such Haywood

balance sheets of Haywood included in the most recent Haywood
Financial Statements dated prior to the date of this Agreement
was, and the Allowance shown on the consolidated balance sheets

(including accrued interest receivables) of any Subsidiary and
other extensions of credit (including letters of credit and
commitments to make loans or extend credit) by any Subsidiary as

<PAGE>
<PAGE>

or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on Haywood; and

          (b)  except as set forth on Schedule 5.12(b) attached
hereto, has received any notification or communication from any
agency or department of federal, state or local government or
any Regulatory Authority or the staff thereof (i) asserting that
either Haywood or Bank is not in compliance with any of the Laws
or Orders which such governmental authority or Regulatory
Authority enforces, where such noncompliance is reasonably
likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material
Adverse Effect on either Haywood or any Subsidiary, (ii)
threatening to revoke any Permits, the revocation of which is
reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a
Material Adverse Effect on either Haywood or any Subsidiary, or

nor is Haywood or its Subsidiaries a party to or bound by any
collective bargaining agreement, Contract or other agreement or
understanding with a labor union or labor organization, nor is
there any strike or other labor dispute involving either of
them, pending or threatened, nor to their respective Knowledge,
is there any activity involving Haywood's or its Subsidiaries'
employees seeking to certify a collective bargaining unit or
engaging in any other organization activity.

     5.14 Employee Benefit Plans.

          (a)  Schedule 5.14(a) attached hereto sets forth
correct and complete copies in each case of all pension,
retirement, profit-sharing, deferred compensation, stock option,
employee stock ownership, severance pay, vacation, bonus or
other incentive plans, all other written employee programs,
arrangements or agreements, all medical, vision, dental or other
health plans, all life insurance plans and all other employee
benefit plans or fringe benefit plans, including, without
limitation, "employee benefit plans" as that term is defined in
Section 3(3) of ERISA currently adopted, maintained by,
sponsored in whole or in part by, or contributed to by Haywood
or any Affiliate thereof for the benefit of employees, retirees,
dependents, spouses, directors, independent contractors or other
beneficiaries and under which such persons are eligible to
participate (collectively, the "Haywood Benefit Plans").  Any of
the Haywood Benefit Plans which is an "employee welfare benefit
plan," as that term is defined in Section 3(l) of ERISA, or an
"employee pension benefit plan," as that term is defined in
Section 3(2) of ERISA, is referred to herein as a "Haywood ERISA
Plan."  Each Haywood ERISA Plan which is also a "defined benefit
plan" (as defined in Section 414(j) of the Internal Revenue Code
or

                           15
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Section 3(35) of ERISA) is referred to herein as a "Haywood
Pension Plan."  No Haywood Pension Plan is or has been a
"multi-employer plan" within the meaning of Section 3(37) of
ERISA.  Except as set forth on Schedule 5.14(a) attached hereto,
Haywood does not, and may not ever, participate in either a
multi-employer plan or a multiple employer plan.

          (b)  Haywood has delivered or made available to CSBI
prior to the execution of this Agreement correct and complete
copies of the following documents:  (i) all trust agreements or
other funding arrangements for such Haywood Benefit Plans
(including insurance contracts), and all amendments thereto,
(ii) with respect to any such Haywood Benefit Plans or
amendments, all determination letters, Material rulings,
Material opinion letters, Material information letters or
Material advisory opinions issued by the IRS, the United States
Department of Labor or the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation
after December 31, 1994, (iii) annual reports or returns,
audited or unaudited financial statements, actuarial valuations
and reports and summary annual reports prepared for any Haywood
Benefit Plan with respect to the most recent plan year, and (iv)
the most recent summary plan descriptions and any Material
modifications thereto.

          (c)  All Haywood Benefit Plans are in compliance with
the applicable terms of ERISA, the Internal Revenue Code, and
any other applicable Laws, the breach or violation of which are
reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a
Material Adverse Effect on Haywood.  Each Haywood ERISA Plan
which is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the
Internal Revenue Code has received a favorable determination
letter from the IRS, and Haywood is not aware of any
circumstances which will or could reasonably result in
revocation of any such favorable determination letter or failure
of an Haywood ERISA Plan intended to satisfy Internal Revenue
Code Section 401 to satisfy the Tax qualification provisions of
the Internal Revenue Code applicable thereto.  Neither Haywood
nor Bank has engaged in a transaction with respect to any
Haywood Benefit Plan that, assuming the Taxable Period of such
transaction expired as of the date hereof, would subject Haywood
or Bank to a Material Tax or penalty imposed by either Section
4975 of the Internal Revenue Code or Section 502(i) of ERISA in
amounts which are reasonably likely to have, individually or in
the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on Haywood.

          (d)  Except as set forth on Schedule 5.14(d) attached
hereto, no Haywood Pension Plan has any "unfunded current
liability," as that term is defined in Section 302(d)(8)(A) of
ERISA, based on actuarial assumptions set forth for such plan's
most recent actuarial valuation, and the fair market value of
the assets of any such plan exceeds the plan's "benefit
liabilities," as that term is defined in Section 4001(a)(16) of
ERISA, when determined under actuarial factors that would apply
if the plan terminated in accordance with all applicable legal
requirements.  Since the date of the most recent actuarial
valuation, there has been (i) no Material change in the
financial position or funded status of any Haywood Pension Plan,
(ii) no change in the actuarial assumptions with respect to any
Haywood Pension Plan, and (iii) no increase in benefits under
any Haywood Pension Plan as a result of plan amendments or
changes in applicable Law, any of which is reasonably likely to
have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse
Effect on Haywood or materially affect the funding status of any
such plan.  Neither any Haywood Pension Plan nor any
"single-employer plan," within the meaning of Section
4001(a)(15) of ERISA, currently or formerly maintained by
Haywood, or the

                           16
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
single-employer plan of any entity which is considered one
employer with Haywood under Section 4001 of ERISA or Section 414
of the Internal Revenue Code or Section 302 of ERISA (whether or
not waived) (an "ERISA Affiliate") has an "accumulated funding
deficiency" within the meaning of Section 412 of the Internal
Revenue Code or Section 302 of ERISA, which is reasonably likely
to have a Material Adverse Effect on Haywood. Haywood has not
provided, and is not required to provide, security to a Haywood
Pension Plan or to any single-employer plan of an ERISA
Affiliate pursuant to Section 401(a)(29) of the Internal Revenue
Code.  All premiums required to be paid under ERISA Section 4006
have been timely paid by Haywood, except to the extent any
failure to do so would not have a Material Adverse Effect on
Haywood.

          (e)  Within the six-year period preceding the
Effective Time, no Liability under Subtitle C or D of Title IV
of ERISA has been or is expected to be incurred by Haywood with
respect to any ongoing, frozen or terminated single-employer
plan or the single-employer plan of any ERISA Affiliate, which
Liability is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect
on Haywood.  Except as Previously Disclosed, Haywood has not
incurred any withdrawal Liability with respect to a
multi-employer plan under Subtitle B of Title IV of ERISA
(regardless of whether based on contributions of an ERISA
Affiliate), which Liability is reasonably likely to have a
Material Adverse Effect on Haywood.  No notice of a "reportable
event," within the meaning of Section 4043 of ERISA for which
the 30-day reporting requirement has not been waived, has
been required to be filed for any Haywood Pension Plan or by any
ERISA Affiliate within the 12-month period ending on the date
hereof.

          (f)  Except as set forth on Schedule 5.14(f) attached
hereto or as required under Title I, Part 6 of ERISA and
Internal Revenue Code Section 4980B, neither Haywood nor Bank
has any obligations to provide health and life benefits under
any of the Haywood Benefit Plans to former employees, and there
are no restrictions on the rights of Haywood to amend or
terminate any such plan without incurring any Liability
thereunder, which Liability is reasonably likely to have a
Material Adverse Effect on Haywood.

          (g)  Except as set forth on Schedule 5.14(g) attached
hereto, neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor
the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will
(i) result in any payment (including, without limitation,
severance, unemployment compensation, golden parachute or
otherwise) becoming due to any officer, director or any employee
of Haywood from Haywood or its Subsidiaries under any Haywood
Benefit Plan or otherwise, (ii) increase any benefits otherwise
payable under any Haywood Benefit Plan, or (iii) result in any
acceleration of the time of payment or vesting of any such
benefit.

          (h)  Except as set forth on Schedule 5.14(h) attached
hereto, the actuarial present values of all accrued deferred
compensation entitlements (including, without limitation,
entitlements under any executive compensation, supplemental
retirement, or employment agreement) of employees and former
employees of Haywood and its respective beneficiaries, other
than entitlements accrued pursuant to funded retirement plans
subject to the provisions of Section 412 of the Internal Revenue
Code or Section 302 of ERISA, have been fully reflected on the
Haywood Financial Statements to the extent required by and in
accordance with GAAP.

5.15 attached hereto or otherwise reflected in the Haywood
Financial Statements, neither Haywood, its Subsidiaries nor any
of their respective Assets, businesses or operations, is a party
to, or is bound or affected by, or receives benefits under, (i)
any employment, severance, termination, consulting or retirement
Contract providing for aggregate payments to any Person in any
calendar year in excess of $50,000, (ii) any Contract relating

of federal funds, fully-secured repurchase agreements, trade
payables, Federal Home Loan Bank advances and Contracts relating
to borrowings or guarantees made in the ordinary course of
business), and (iii) any other Contract or amendment thereto
would be required to be filed as an exhibit to a Form 10-K filed
by Haywood with the SEC as of the date of this Agreement that
has not been filed by Haywood with the SEC or incorporated by
reference as an exhibit to Haywood's Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998 (together with all
Contracts referred to in Sections 5.10 and 5.14(a) of this
Agreement, the "Haywood Contracts"). With respect to each
Haywood Contract, (i) the Contract is in full force and effect,
(ii) neither Haywood nor Bank is in Default thereunder, other
than Defaults which are not reasonably likely to have,
individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on
Haywood, (iii) neither Haywood nor its Subsidiaries has
repudiated or waived any material provision of any such
Contract, and (iv) no other party to any such Contract is, to
the knowledge of Haywood, in Default in any respect, other than
Defaults which are not reasonably likely to have, individually
or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on Haywood, or

indebtedness of Haywood or any Subsidiary for money borrowed is
prepayable at any time by Haywood or any Subsidiary without
penalty or premium.

     5.16 Legal Proceedings.  There is no Litigation pending,
or, to the Knowledge of Haywood, threatened against either
Haywood or any Subsidiary, or against any of their Assets,
employee benefit plans, interests or rights that is reasonably
likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material
Adverse Effect on Haywood, nor are there any Orders of any
Regulatory Authorities, other governmental authorities or
arbitrators outstanding against either Haywood or any
Subsidiary, that are reasonably likely to have, individually or
in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on Haywood.

     5.17 Reports.  Except as set forth on Schedule 5.17
attached hereto, since December 31, 1994, Haywood and its
Subsidiaries have timely filed all reports and statements,
together with any amendments required to be made with respect
thereto, that they were required to file with Regulatory
Authorities and any applicable state securities or banking
authorities, except failures to file which are not reasonably
likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material
Adverse Effect on Haywood or its Subsidiaries.  As of their
respective dates, each of such reports and documents, including
the financial statements, exhibits and schedules thereto,
complied in all material respects with all applicable Laws.  As
of their respective dates, each such report and document did not

fact, or omit to state any Material fact necessary to make the
statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which
they were made, not misleading, or, in the case of the Proxy
Statement or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, at the
time of the Haywood Meeting be false or misleading with respect
to any Material fact, or omit to state any Material fact
necessary to correct any statement in any earlier communication
with respect to the solicitation of any proxy for the Haywood
Meeting.  All documents that Haywood or any Affiliate thereof is
responsible for filing with any Regulatory Authority in
connection with the transactions contemplated hereby will comply
as to form in all Material respects with the provisions of
applicable Law.

     5.19 Tax and Regulatory Matters.  Neither Haywood, nor any
Subsidiary nor any Affiliate thereof has taken any action or has
any Knowledge of any fact or circumstance that is reasonably
likely to (i) prevent the Merger from qualifying as a
reorganization within the  meaning of Section 368(a) of the
Internal Revenue Code, or (ii) materially impede or delay
receipt of any Consents of Regulatory Authorities referred to in
Section 9.1(b) of this Agreement or result in the imposition of
a condition or restriction of the type referred to in the second
sentence of such Section.  To the Knowledge of Haywood, there
exists no fact, circumstance or reason why the requisite
Consents referred to in Section 9.1(b) of this Agreement cannot
be received in a timely manner without the imposition of any
condition or restriction of the type described in the second
sentence of such Section 9.1(b) other than with respect to
anti-trust or competitive effects issues.

     5.20 State Takeover Laws.  Haywood has taken all necessary
action to exempt the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
from any applicable "moratorium," "control share," "fair price,"
"business combination" or other state takeover Law.

     5.21 Articles of Incorporation Provisions.  Haywood has
taken all actions so that the entering into of this Agreement
and the consummation of the Merger contemplated hereby do not
and will not result in the grant of any rights to any Person
under the Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws or other governing
instruments of Haywood (other than voting, dissenters' rights of
appraisal or other similar rights) or restrict or impair the
ability of CSBI or any of its Subsidiaries


                          19
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
to vote, or otherwise to exercise the rights of a shareholder
with respect to, shares of Haywood Common Stock that may be
acquired or controlled by it.

     5.22 Derivatives.  All interest rate swaps, caps, floors,
option agreements, futures and forward contracts and other
similar risk management arrangements, whether entered into for
Haywood's own account, or for the account of Bank or its
customers, were entered into (i) in accordance with prudent
business practices and all applicable Laws, and (ii) with
counterparties believed to be financially responsible.

     5.23 Year 2000.  To the Knowledge of Haywood, all computer
software and hardware necessary for the conduct of business by
Haywood (the "Haywood Software") is designed to be used before,
on, and after January 1, 2000 and the Haywood Software will
operate during each such time period without error relating to
the year 2000, specifically including any error relating to, or
the product of, any date data representing or referring to any
particular date.  As used in this Section 5.23, "operate"
further includes, but is not limited to, accepting input of
dates without ambiguity, outputting all dates without ambiguity,
and performing calculations, comparisons, extractions, sorting
and any other processing or taking actions or making decisions
using dates or time periods without suffering any abends,
aborts, invalid or incorrect results or other interruptions,
whether before, on, or after January 1, 2000.  Haywood has
received all year 2000 examinations and certifications as
required by applicable Law and will, within ten business days of
this Agreement, make available for CSBI's review all (i) such
examinations and certifications, (ii) contingency plans in the
event the Software fails to operate, and (iii) costs associated
with or related to the Haywood Software.

has the corporate power and authority to carry on its business
as now conducted and to own, lease and operate its Assets.  CSBI
is duly qualified or licensed to transact business as a foreign
corporation in good standing in the states of the United States
and foreign jurisdictions where the character of its Assets or
the nature or conduct of its business requires it to be so
qualified or licensed, except for such jurisdictions in which
the failure to be so qualified or licensed is not reasonably
likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material
Adverse Effect on CSBI.

     6.2  Authority, No Breach By Agreement.

          (a)  CSBI and HAC each have the corporate power and
authority necessary to execute, deliver and perform their
respective obligations under this Agreement and to consummate

<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Merger, have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary
corporate action in respect thereof on the part of CSBI and HAC.
Subject to the Consents of Regulatory Authorities, this
Agreement represents a legal, valid, and binding obligation of
CSBI and HAC, enforceable against CSBI and HAC in accordance
with its terms (except in all cases as such enforceability may
be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium or similar Laws affecting the enforcement of
creditors' rights generally and except that the availability of
the equitable remedy of specific performance or injunctive
relief is subject to the discretion of the court before which
any proceeding may be brought).

          (b)  Neither the execution and delivery of this
Agreement by either CSBI or HAC, nor the consummation by either
CSBI or HAC of the transactions contemplated hereby, nor
compliance by either CSBI or HAC with any of the provisions
hereof, will (i) conflict with or result in a breach of any
provision of CSBI's or HAC's Articles of Incorporation or
Bylaws, or (ii) constitute or result in a Default under, or
require any Consent pursuant to, or result in the creation of
any Lien on any Asset of any CSBI Companies under, any Contract
or Permit of any CSBI Companies, where such Default or Lien, or
any failure to obtain such Consent, is reasonably likely to
have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse
Effect on CSBI, or (iii) subject to receipt of the
requisite approvals referred to in Section 9.1(b) of this
Agreement, violate any Law or Order applicable to any CSBI
Companies or any of their respective Material Assets.

         (c)   No notice to, filing with or Consent of any
public body or authority is necessary for the consummation by

NASD, (ii) Consents required from Regulatory Authorities, (iii)
notices to or filings with the IRS or the Pension Benefit

          (a)  CSBI has filed and made available to Haywood all
forms, reports and documents required to be filed by CSBI with

in all Material respects with the applicable requirements of the
1933 Act and the 1934 Act, as the case may be, and (ii) did not
at the time they were filed (or if amended or superseded by a
filing prior to the date of this Agreement, then on the date of
such filing) contain any untrue statement of a Material fact or
omit to state a Material fact required to be stated in such CSBI
SEC Reports or necessary in order to make the statements in such
CSBI SEC Reports, in light of the circumstances under which they
were made, not misleading. Except for CSBI Subsidiaries that are
registered as a broker, dealer or investment advisor or filings
due to fiduciary holdings of the CSBI Subsidiaries, none of the
CSBI Subsidiaries is required to file any forms, reports or
other documents with the SEC;

          (b)  CSBI has Previously Disclosed and delivered to

covered thereby) (i) are or, if dated after the date of this
Agreement, will be in accordance with the books and records of
the CSBI Companies, which are or will be, materially complete
and correct and which have been or will have been, maintained in
accordance with good business practices, and (ii) present or

Effect on CSBI, except Liabilities which are accrued or reserved
against in the consolidated balance sheets of CSBI as of
December 31, 1998 and June 30, 1999 included in the CSBI
Financial Statements or reflected in the notes thereto.  No CSBI
Company has incurred or paid any Liability since March 31, 1999,
except for (i) such Liabilities incurred or paid in the ordinary
course of business consistent with past business practice and
which are not reasonably likely to have, individually or in the
aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on CSBI, or (ii) in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

     6.6  Absence of Certain Changes or Events.  Since June 30,
1999, except as Previously Disclosed, (i) there have been no
events, changes or occurrences which have had, or are reasonably
likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material
Adverse Effect on CSBI, and (ii) the CSBI Companies have not
taken any action, or failed to take any action, prior to the
date of this Agreement, which action or failure, if taken after
the date of this Agreement, would represent or result in a
Material breach or violation of any of the covenants and
agreements of CSBI provided in Article 7 of this Agreement.

     6.7  Compliance with Laws.  CSBI is duly registered as a
bank holding company under the BHC Act.  Each of the CSBI
Companies has in effect all permits necessary to own, lease or
operate its Assets and to carry on its business as now
conducted, except for those Permits the absence of which are not
reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a
Material Adverse Effect on CSBI, and there has occurred no
Default under any such Permit, other than Defaults which are not
reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a
Material Adverse Effect on CSBI.  None of the CSBI Companies:

          (a)  is in violation of any Laws, Orders or Permits
applicable to its business or employees conducting its business,
except for violations which are not reasonably likely to have,
individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on
CSBI; and

notification or communication from any agency or department of
federal, state or local government or any Regulatory Authority
or the staff thereof (i) asserting that any of the CSBI
Companies are not in compliance with any of the Laws or Orders
which such governmental authority or Regulatory Authority
enforces, where such noncompliance is reasonably likely to have,
individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on
CSBI, (ii) threatening to revoke any Permits, the revocation of
which is reasonably likely to have, individually or in the
aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on CSBI, or (iii) requiring
any CSBI Companies to enter into or consent to the issuance of a
cease and desist order, formal agreement, directive, commitment
or memorandum of understanding, or to adopt any Board resolution
or similar undertaking, which restricts materially the conduct
of its business, or in any manner relates to its capital
adequacy, its credit or reserve policies, its management or the
payment of dividends.

     6.8  Legal Proceedings.  There is no Litigation instituted
or pending, or, to the Knowledge of CSBI, threatened against any
CSBI Companies, or against any Asset, interest or right of any
of them, that is reasonably likely to have, individually or in
the aggregate, a Material

                          23
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Adverse Effect on CSBI, nor are there any Orders of any
Regulatory Authorities, other governmental authorities or
arbitrators outstanding against any CSBI Companies, that are
reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a
Material Adverse Effect on CSBI.

     6.9  Statements True and Correct.  No statement,
certificate, instrument or other writing furnished or to be
furnished by any CSBI Companies or any Affiliate thereof to
Haywood pursuant to this Agreement or any other document,
agreement or instrument referred to herein contains or will
contain any untrue statement of Material fact or will omit to
state a Material fact necessary to make the statements therein,
in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading.  None of the information supplied or to be supplied
by any CSBI Companies or any Affiliate thereof for inclusion in
the Registration Statement to be filed by CSBI with the SEC,
will, when the Registration Statement becomes effective, be
false or misleading with respect to any Material fact, or omit
to state any Material fact necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading.  None of the information supplied or to
be supplied by any CSBI Companies or any Affiliate thereof for
inclusion in the Proxy Statement to be mailed to Haywood
shareholders in connection with the Haywood Meeting, and any
other documents to be filed by any CSBI Companies or any
Affiliate thereof with the SEC or any other Regulatory Authority
in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, will,
at the respective time such documents are filed, and with
respect to the Proxy Statement, when first mailed to the
shareholders of Haywood, be false or misleading with respect to
any Material fact, or omit to state any Material fact necessary
to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading, or, in the case of
the Proxy Statement or any amendment thereof or supplement
thereto, at the time of the Haywood Meeting, be false or
misleading with respect to any Material fact, or omit to state
any Material fact necessary to correct any statement in any
earlier communication with respect to the solicitation of any
proxy for the Haywood Meeting.  All documents that any CSBI
Companies or any Affiliate thereof is responsible for filing
with any Regulatory Authority in connection with the
transactions contemplated hereby will comply as to form in all
Material respects with the provisions of applicable Law.

     6.10 Tax and Regulatory Matters.  No CSBI Company or any
Affiliate thereof has taken any action or has any Knowledge of
any fact or circumstance that is reasonably likely to (i)
prevent the Merger from qualifying as a reorganization within
the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, or
(ii) materially impede or delay receipt of any Consents of
Regulatory Authorities referred to in Section 9.1(b) of this
Agreement or result in the imposition of a condition or
restriction of the type referred to in the second sentence of
such Section 9.1(b).  To the Knowledge of CSBI, there exists no
fact, circumstance or reason why the requisite Consents referred
to in Section 9.1(b) of this Agreement cannot be received in a
timely manner without the imposition of any condition or
restriction of the type described in the second sentence of such
Section 9.1(b) other than with respect to anti-trust or
competitive effects issues.

     6.11  Reports.  Except as Previously Disclosed, since
December 31, 1994, CSBI and its Subsidiaries have timely filed
all reports and statements, together with any amendments
required to be made with respect thereto (or have obtained
written waivers from the applicable Regulatory Authority waiving
all consequences from the failure to timely file), that they
were required to file with Regulatory Authorities and any
applicable state securities or banking authorities, except


                          24
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
failure to file which are not reasonably likely to have,
individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on
CSBI or its Subsidiaries.  As of their respective dates, each of
such reports and documents, including the financial statements,
exhibits and schedules thereto, complied in all material
respects with all applicable Laws.  As of their respective
dates, each such report and document did not contain any
untrue statement of a Material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements made therein, in
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading.

     6.12 Year 2000.  To the Knowledge of CSBI, all computer
software and hardware necessary for the conduct of business by
CSBI (the "CSBI Software") is designed to be used before, on,
and after January 1, 2000 and the CSBI Software will operate
during each such time period without error relating to the Year
2000, specifically including any error relating to, or the
product of, any date data representing or referring to any
particular date.  As used in this Section 6.12, "operate"
further includes, but is not limited to, accepting input of
dates without ambiguity, outputting all dates without ambiguity,
and performing calculations, comparisons, extractions, sorting
and any other processing or taking actions or making decisions
using dates or time periods without suffering any abends,
aborts, invalid or incorrect results or other interruptions,
whether before, on, or after January 1, 2000.  CSBI has received
all Year 2000 examinations and certifications as required by
applicable Law and will, within ten business days of this
Agreement, make available for Haywood's review all (i) such
examinations and certifications, (ii) contingency plans in the
event the software fails to operate, and (iii) costs associated
with or related to the CSBI Software.

CSBI Common Stock that are not reserved for any other purposes
and are sufficient to provide the aggregate number of shares of
CSBI Common Stock to be issued in the Merger and has available
to it sources of funds sufficient to provide the aggregate Per
Share Cash Consideration.  The shares of CSBI Common Stock to be
issued in the Merger have been duly authorized and when issued
pursuant to the Merger will be validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable with the same rights as each other outstanding
shares of CSBI Common Stock.

(ii) to the extent consistent therewith, use all reasonable
efforts to preserve intact the CSBI Companies' core businesses
and goodwill with their respective employees and the communities
they serve, (iii) use their respective reasonable efforts to
cause their respective representations and warranties to be
correct at all times, and (iv) take no action which would (a)
adversely affect the ability of any Party to obtain any Consents
required for the transaction contemplated hereby without
imposition of a condition or restriction of the type referred to
in the last sentence of Section 9.1(b) of this Agreement, or (b)
adversely affect in any Material respect the ability of any
Party to perform its covenants and agreements under this
Agreement.

          (b)  CSBI shall take all action necessary to approve,
in accordance with Rule 16b-3 of the 1934 Act, the acquisition

Directors of Haywood shall (subject to compliance with its

     8.2  Registration Statement.

          (a)  Each of CSBI and Haywood agrees to cooperate in

if any, becomes effective under the 1933 Act, contain any untrue
statement of a Material fact or omit to state any Material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, and (ii) the Proxy Statement
and any amendment or supplement thereto will, at the date of
mailing to Haywood shareholders and at the time of the Haywood

respect to any Material fact, or which will omit to state any
Material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein
not false or misleading or necessary to correct any statement in
any earlier statement in the Proxy Statement or any amendment or
supplement  thereto. Each of Haywood and CSBI further agrees

<PAGE>
Effective Date of any information that would cause any of the
statements in the Proxy Statement to be false or misleading with
respect to any Material fact, or to omit to state any Material
fact necessary to make the statements therein not false or
misleading, to promptly inform the other Party thereof and to
take the necessary steps to correct the Proxy Statement.

          (c)  In the case of CSBI, CSBI will advise Haywood,
promptly after CSBI receives notice thereof, of the time when
the Registration Statement has become effective or any
supplement or amendment has been filed, or of the issuance of
any stop order or the suspension of the qualification of the
CSBI Common Stock for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, of
the initiation or threat of any proceeding for any such purpose,
or of any request by the SEC for the amendment or supplement of
the Registration Statement or for additional information.

          (d)  Nothing in this Section 8.2 or elsewhere in this
Agreement shall prohibit accurate disclosure by Haywood of
information that is required to be disclosed in the Registration
Statement of the Proxy Statement or in any other document
required to be filed with the SEC (including, without
limitation, a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule
14D-9) or otherwise required to be publicly disclosed by
applicable Law or the regulations and rules of the AMEX.

     8.3  Applications.  CSBI shall promptly prepare and file,
Haywood and each Subsidiary shall cooperate in the preparation
and, where appropriate, filing of, applications with all
Regulatory Authorities having jurisdiction over the transactions

applications prior to filing same.

subject to the conditions of this Agreement, Haywood shall

     8.5  Agreement as to Efforts to Consummate.  Subject to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Party agrees to use
its reasonable efforts to take all actions, and to do all things
necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws, as
promptly as practicable so as to permit consummation of the
Merger at the earliest possible date and to otherwise enable
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and shall
cooperate fully with the other Party hereto to that end (it
being understood that any amendments to the Registration
Statement filed by CSBI in connection with the CSBI Common Stock
to be issued in the Merger or a resolicitation of proxies as a
consequence of an acquisition agreement by CSBI or any of its
Subsidiaries shall not violate this covenant provided CSBI
agrees to pay all direct expenses associated with any such
resolicitation), including, without limitation, using
its reasonable efforts to lift or rescind any Order adversely
affecting its ability to consummate the transactions
contemplated herein and to cause to be satisfied the conditions
referred to in Article 9 of this Agreement; provided, that
nothing herein shall preclude either Party from exercising its
rights under this Agreement.  Each Party shall use, and shall
cause each of its Subsidiaries to use, its


                          31
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
reasonable efforts to obtain all Consents necessary or desirable
for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement.

     8.6  Investigation and Confidentiality.

          (a)  Prior to the Effective Time, each Party will keep
the other Party advised of all Material developments relevant to
its business and to consummation of the Merger and shall permit
the other Party to make or cause to be made such investigation
of the business and properties of it and its Subsidiaries and of
their respective financial and legal conditions as the other
Party reasonably requests, provided that such investigation
shall be reasonably related to the transaction contemplated
hereby and shall not interfere unnecessarily with normal
operations.  No investigation by a Party shall affect the
representations and warranties of the other Party.

          (b)  Each Party shall, and shall cause its advisers
and agents to, maintain the confidentiality of all confidential
information furnished to it by any other Party concerning its
and its Subsidiaries' businesses, operations and financial
condition except in furtherance of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement.  In the event that a Party is required by
applicable Law or valid court process to disclose any such
confidential information, then such Party shall provide the
other Party with prompt written notice of any such requirement
so that the other Party may seek a protective order or other
appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with this Section
8.6.  If in the absence of a protective order or other remedy or
the receipt of a waiver by the other Party, a Party is
nonetheless, in the written opinion of counsel, legally
compelled to disclose any such confidential information to any
tribunal or else stand liable for contempt or suffer other
censure or penalty, a Party may, without liability hereunder,
disclose to such tribunal only that portion of the confidential
information which such counsel advises such Party is legally
required to be disclosed; provided that such disclosing Party
use its best efforts to preserve the confidentiality of such
confidential information, including without limitation, by
cooperating with the other Party to obtain an appropriate
protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential
treatment will be accorded such confidential information by such
tribunal.  If this Agreement is terminated prior to the
Effective Time, each Party shall promptly return all documents
and copies thereof and all work papers containing confidential
information received from the other Party.

          (c)  Each Party agrees to give the other Party notice
as soon as practicable after any determination by it of any fact
or occurrence relating to the other Party which it has
discovered through the course of its investigation and which
represents, or is reasonably likely to represent, either a
Material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or
agreement of the other Party or which has had or is reasonably
likely to have a Material Adverse Effect on the other Party.

          (d)  Neither Party nor any of their respective
Subsidiaries shall be required to provide access to or to
disclose information where such access or disclosure would
violate or prejudice the rights of its customers, jeopardize the
attorney-client or similar privilege with respect to such
information or contravene any Law, rule, regulation, Order,
judgment, decree,  fiduciary duty or agreement entered into
prior to the date of this Agreement.  The Parties will use

                          32
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
their reasonable efforts to make appropriate substitute
disclosure arrangements, to the extent practicable, in
circumstances in which the restrictions of the preceding
sentence apply.

     8.7  Press Releases.  Prior to the Effective Time, Haywood
and CSBI shall consult with each other as to the form and
substance of any press release or other public disclosure
materially related to this Agreement or any other transaction
contemplated hereby; provided, however, that nothing in this
Section 8.7 shall be deemed to prohibit any Party from making
any disclosure which its counsel deems necessary or advisable in
order to satisfy such Party's disclosure obligations imposed by
Law.

     8.8  Certain Actions.  Except with respect to this
Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, neither
Haywood nor any Affiliate thereof nor any investment banker,
attorney, accountant or other representative (collectively, the
"Representatives") retained by Haywood or Bank shall directly or
indirectly solicit any Acquisition Proposed by any Person.
Except to the extent necessary to comply with the fiduciary
duties of Haywood Board of Directors as determined by the
Haywood Board of Directors after consulting with and considering
the advice of counsel, neither Haywood nor any Affiliate or
Representative thereof shall furnish any non-public information
that it is not legally obligated to furnish, negotiate with
respect to, or enter  into any Contract with respect to, any
Acquisition Proposal, but Haywood may communicate information
about such an Acquisition Proposal to its shareholders if and to
the extent that it is required to do so in order to comply with
its legal obligations as advised by counsel; provided that
Haywood shall promptly advise CSBI verbally and in writing
following the receipt of any Acquisition Proposal and the
Material details thereof.  Haywood shall (i) immediately cease
and cause to be terminated any existing activities, discussions
or negotiations with any Persons conducted heretofore with
respect to any of the foregoing and (ii)  subject to its
fiduciary duties, direct and use its reasonable efforts to cause
all of its Representatives not to engage in any of the
foregoing.

     8.9  Tax Treatment.  Each of the Parties undertakes and
agrees to use its reasonable efforts to cause the Merger, and to
take no action which would cause the Merger not to qualify for
treatment as a "reorganization" within the meaning of Section
368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code for federal income tax
purposes.

     8.10 State Takeover Laws. Haywood and each Subsidiary shall
take all reasonable steps to exempt the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement from, or if necessary challenge
the validity or applicability of, any applicable state takeover
Law.

     8.11 Articles of Incorporation Provisions. Haywood and each
Subsidiary shall take all necessary action to ensure that the
entering into of this Agreement and the consummation of the
Merger does not and will not result in the grant of any rights
to any Person under the Articles, Bylaws or other governing
instruments of Haywood or any Subsidiary (other than voting,
dissenters' rights of appraisal or other similar rights) or
restrict or impair the ability of CSBI or any of its
Subsidiaries to vote, or otherwise to exercise the rights of a
shareholder with respect to, shares of Haywood or any Subsidiary
that may be acquired or controlled by it.

form of Exhibit C, providing that such Person will not sell,

Haywood Benefit Plans and (ii) the individual affected by the

of such shareholders.

waive or extend the time for the compliance or fulfillment by
Haywood of any and all of its obligations under this Agreement

by a duly authorized officer of CSBI.

          (b)  Prior to or at the Effective Time, Haywood, shall
have the right to waive any Default in the performance of any
term of this Agreement by CSBI, to waive or extend the time for

          (c)  The failure of any Party at any time or times to

condition or of the breach of any term contained in this
Agreement in one or more instances shall be deemed to be or
construed as a further or continuing waiver of such condition or

          THE TRANSFER OF THIS AGREEMENT IS SUBJECT TO
           CERTAIN PROVISIONS CONTAINED HEREIN AND TO
                 RESALE RESTRICTIONS UNDER THE
               SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED


     STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT, dated as of August 5, 1999, between
Haywood Bancshares, Inc., a North Carolina corporation
("Issuer") and Century South Banks, Inc., a Georgia corporation
("Grantee"),


                     WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, Grantee and Issuer have entered into an Agreement
and Plan of Merger of even date herewith (the "Merger
Agreement"), which agreement has been executed by the parties
hereto immediately prior to this Stock Option Agreement (the
"Agreement"); and

     WHEREAS, as a condition to Grantee's entering into the
Merger Agreement and in consideration therefor, Issuer has
agreed to grant Grantee the Option (as hereinafter defined);

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the
mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein and in the
Merger Agreement, the parties hereto agree as follows:

     1.   (a) Issuer hereby grants to Grantee an irrevocable
option (the "Option") to purchase, subject to the terms hereof,
up to 249,946 fully paid and non-assessable shares of Issuer's
Common Stock, $1.00 par value ("Common Stock"), at a price of
$16.30 per share (the "Option Price"); provided, however, that
in no event shall the number of shares of Common Stock for which
this Option is exercisable exceed 19.99% of the Issuer's issued
and outstanding shares of Common Stock without giving effect to
any shares subject to or issued pursuant to the Option. The
number of shares of Common Stock that may be received upon the
exercise of the Option and the Option Price are subject to
adjustment as herein set forth.

     (b)  In the event that any additional shares of Common
Stock are either (i) issued or otherwise become outstanding
after the date of this Agreement (other than pursuant to this
Agreement) or (ii) redeemed, repurchased, retired or otherwise
cease to be outstanding after the date of the Agreement, the
number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Option shall be
increased or decreased, as appropriate, so that, after such
issuance, such number equals 19.99% of the number of shares of
Common Stock then issued and outstanding without giving effect
to any shares subject or issued pursuant to the Option. Nothing
contained in this Section 1(b) or elsewhere in this Agreement
shall be deemed to authorize Issuer or Grantee to breach any
provision of the Merger Agreement.

                          A-2
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
     2.   Provided that (i) Grantee shall not have materially
breached its representations or warranties and cure rights
thereto expired as contained in this Agreement or in the Merger
Agreement, and (ii) no preliminary or permanent injunction or
other order against the delivery of shares covered by the Option
issued by any court of competent jurisdiction shall then be in
effect, (a) The Holder (as hereinafter defined) may exercise the
Option, in whole or part, and from time to time, if, but only
if, both an Initial Triggering Event (as hereinafter defined)
and a Subsequent Triggering Event (as hereinafter defined) shall
have occurred prior to the occurrence of an Exercise Termination
Event (as hereinafter defined), provided that the Holder shall
have sent the written notice of such exercise (as provided in
subsection (e) of this Section 2) within 90 days following such
Subsequent Triggering Event. Each of the following shall be an
"Exercise Termination Event": (i) the Effective Time (as defined
in the Merger Agreement) of the Merger; (ii) termination of the
Merger Agreement in accordance with the provisions thereof if
such termination occurs prior to the occurrence of an Initial
Triggering Event except a termination by Grantee pursuant to
Section 10.1(b) of the Merger Agreement; or (iii) the passage of
12 months after termination of the Merger Agreement if such
termination follows the occurrence of an Initial Triggering
Event or is a termination by Grantee pursuant to Section 10.1(b)
of the Merger Agreement (provided that if an Initial Triggering
Event continues or occurs beyond such termination and prior to
the passage of such 12-month period, the Exercise Termination
Event shall be 12 months from the expiration of the Last
Triggering Event but in no event more than 18 months after such
termination). The "Last Triggering Event" shall mean the
last Initial Triggering Event to expire. The term "Holder" shall
mean the holder or holders of the Option.

     (b)  The term "Initial Triggering Event" shall mean any
of the following events or transactions occurring after the date
hereof:

          (i)  Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries (each an
     "Issuer Subsidiary"), without having received Grantee's
     prior written consent, shall have entered into an agreement
     to engage in an Acquisition Transaction (as hereinafter
     defined) with any person (the term "person" for purposes of
     this Agreement having the meaning assigned thereto in
     Sections 3(a)(9) and 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange
     Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), and the rules and
     regulations thereunder) other than Grantee or any of its
     Subsidiaries (each a "Grantee Subsidiary") or the Board of
     Directors of Issuer shall have recommended that the
     stockholders of Issuer approve or accept any Acquisition
     Transaction. For purposes of this Agreement, "Acquisition
     Transaction" shall mean (w) a merger or consolidation, or
     any similar transaction, involving Issuer or any
     Significant Subsidiary (as defined in Rule 1-02 of
     Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
     Commission (the "SEC")) of Issuer, (x) a purchase, lease or
     other acquisition or assumption of all or a substantial
     portion of the assets or deposits of Issuer or any
     Significant Subsidiary of Issuer, (y) a purchase or other
     acquisition (including by way of merger, consolidation,
     share exchange or otherwise) of securities representing 10%
     or more of the voting power of Issuer, or (z) any
     substantially similar transaction; provided, however, that
     in no event shall any merger, consolidation, purchase or
     similar transaction involving only the Issuer and one or
     more of its Subsidiaries or involving only any two or more
     of such Subsidiaries, be deemed to be an Acquisition
     Transaction, provided that any such transaction is not
     entered into in violation of the terms of the Merger
     Agreement;

                          A-3
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
          (ii) Issuer or any Issuer Subsidiary, without having
     received Grantee's prior written consent, shall have
     authorized, recommended, proposed or publicly announced its
     intention to authorize, recommend or propose, to engage in
     an Acquisition Transaction with any person other than
     Grantee or a Grantee Subsidiary, or the Board of Directors
     of Issuer shall have publicly withdrawn or modified, or
     publicly announced its intention to withdraw or modify, in
     any manner adverse to Grantee, its recommendation that the
     stockholders of Issuer approve the transactions
     contemplated by the Merger Agreement in anticipation of
     engaging in an Acquisition Transaction;

          (iii)     Any person other than Grantee, any Grantee
     Subsidiary or any Issuer Subsidiary acting in a fiduciary
     capacity in the ordinary course of its business shall have
     acquired beneficial ownership or the right to acquire
     beneficial ownership of 10% or more of the outstanding
     shares of Common Stock (the term "beneficial ownership" for
     purposes of this Agreement having the meaning assigned
     thereto in Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act, and the rules and
     regulations thereunder) other than any person who has the
     beneficial ownership of 10% or more of the outstanding
     common stock on the date hereof;

          (iv) Any person other than Grantee or any Grantee
     Subsidiary shall have made a bona fide proposal to Issuer
     or its stockholders by public announcement or written
     communication that is or becomes the subject of public
     disclosure to engage in an Acquisition Transaction;

          (v)  After an overture is made by a third party to
     Issuer or its stockholders to engage in an Acquisition
     Transaction, Issuer shall have breached any covenant or
     obligation contained in the Merger Agreement and such
     breach (x) would entitle Grantee to terminate the Merger
     Agreement and (y) shall not have been cured prior to the
     Notice Date (as defined below); or

           (vi)     Any person other than Grantee or any Grantee
     Subsidiary, other than in connection with a transaction to
     which Grantee has given its prior written consent, shall
     have filed an application or notice with the Federal
     Reserve Board or other federal or state regulatory
     authority, which application or notice has been accepted
     for processing, for approval to engage in an Acquisition
     Transaction.

     (c)  The term "Subsequent Triggering Event" shall mean
either of the following events or transactions occurring after
the date hereof:

          (i)  The acquisition by any person of beneficial
     ownership of 25% or more of the then outstanding Common
     Stock; or

          (ii) The occurrence of the Initial Triggering Event
     described in paragraph (i) of subsection (b) of this
     Section 2, except that the percentage referred to in clause
     (y) shall be 25%.

                          A-4
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
     (d)  Issuer shall notify Grantee promptly in writing of the
occurrence of any Initial Triggering Event or Subsequent
Triggering Event of which it has notice (together, a "Triggering
Event"), it being understood that the giving of such notice by
Issuer shall not be a condition to the right of the Holder to
exercise the Option.

     (e)  In the event the Holder is entitled to and wishes to
exercise the Option, it shall send to Issuer a written notice
(the date of which being herein referred to as the "Notice
Date") specifying (i) the total number of shares it will
purchase pursuant to such exercise and (ii) a place and date not
earlier than three business days nor later than 45 business days
from the Notice Date for the closing of such purchase (the
"Closing Date"); provided that if prior notification to or
approval of the Federal Reserve Board or any other regulatory
agency is required in connection with such purchase, the Holder
shall promptly file the required notice or application for
approval and shall expeditiously process the same and the period
of time that otherwise would run pursuant to this sentence shall
run instead from the date on which any required notification
periods have expired or been terminated or such approvals have
been obtained and any requisite waiting period or periods shall
have passed. Any exercise of the Option shall be deemed to occur
on the Notice Date relating thereto.

     (f)  At the closing referred to in subsection (e) of this
Section 2, the Holder shall pay to Issuer the aggregate purchase
price for the shares of Common Stock purchased pursuant to the
exercise of the Option in immediately available funds by wire
transfer to a bank account designated by Issuer, provided that
failure or refusal of Issuer to designate such a bank account
shall not preclude the Holder from exercising the Option.

     (g)  At such closing, simultaneously with the delivery of
immediately available funds as provided in subsection (f) of
this Section 2, Issuer shall deliver to the Holder a certificate
or certificates representing the number of shares of Common
Stock purchased by the Holder and, if the Option should be
exercised in part only, a new Option evidencing the rights of
the Holder thereof to purchase the balance of the shares
purchasable hereunder, and the Holder shall deliver to Issuer a
copy of this Agreement and a letter agreeing that the Holder
will not offer to sell or otherwise dispose of such shares in
violation of applicable law or the provisions of this Agreement.

     (h)  Certificates for Common Stock delivered at a closing
hereunder may be endorsed with a restrictive legend that shall
read substantially as follows:

     "The transfer of the shares represented by this
     certificate is subject to certain provisions of an
     agreement between the registered holder hereof and
     Issuer and to resale restrictions arising under the
     Securities Act of 1933, as amended. A copy of such
     agreement is on file at the principal office of Issuer
     and will be provided to the holder hereof without
     charge upon receipt by Issuer of a written request
     therefor."

It is understood and agreed that: (i) the reference to the
resale restrictions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "1933 Act"), in the above legend shall be removed by
delivery of substitute certificate(s) without such reference if
the Holder shall have delivered to Issuer a copy

                          A-5
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
of a letter from the staff of the SEC, or an opinion of counsel,
in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Issuer, to the
effect that such legend is not required for purposes of the 1933
Act; (ii) the reference to the provisions of this Agreement in
the above legend shall be removed by delivery of substitute
certificate(s) without such reference if the shares have been
sold or transferred in compliance with the provisions of this
Agreement and under circumstances that do not require the
retention of such reference; and (iii) the legend shall be
removed in its entirety if the conditions in the preceding
clauses (i) and (ii) are both satisfied. In addition, such
certificates shall bear any other legend as may be required by
law.

     (i)  Upon the giving by the Holder to Issuer of the written
notice of exercise of the Option provided for under subsection
(e) of this Section 2 and the tender of the applicable purchase
price in immediately available funds, the Holder shall be deemed
to be the holder of record of the shares of Common Stock
issuable upon such exercise, notwithstanding that the stock
transfer books of Issuer shall then be closed or that
certificates representing such shares of Common Stock shall not
then be actually delivered to the Holder. Issuer shall pay all
expenses, and any and all United States federal, state and local
taxes and other charges that may be payable in connection with
the preparation, issue and delivery of stock certificates under
this Section 2 in the name of the Holder or its assignee,
transferee or designee.

     3.   Issuer agrees: (i) that it will not, by charter
amendment or through reorganization, consolidation, merger,
dissolution or sale of assets, or by any other voluntary act,
avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of
the covenants, stipulations or conditions to be observed or
performed hereunder by Issuer: (ii) promptly to take all action
as may from time to time be required (including (x) complying
with all premerger notification, reporting and waiting period
requirements specified in 15 U.S.C. Section 18a and regulations
promulgated thereunder and (y) in the event, under the Bank
Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "BHCA"), or the
Change in Bank Control Act of 1978, as amended, or any state
banking law, prior approval of or notice to the Federal Reserve
Board or to any state regulatory authority is necessary before
the Option may be exercised, cooperating fully with the Holder
in preparing such applications or notices and providing such
information to the Federal Reserve Board or such state
regulatory authority as they may require) in order to permit
the Holder to exercise the Option and Issuer duly and
effectively to issue shares of Common Stock pursuant hereto;
(iii) that if both an Initial Triggering Event and a Subsequent
Triggering Event shall have occurred prior to the occurrence of
an Exercise Termination Event, the Issuer shall use its best
efforts to obtain additional authorized but unissued shares
which are free of preemptive rights so that the Option may be
exercised without additional authorization of Common Stock after
giving effect to all other options, warrants, convertible
securities and other rights to purchase Common Stock and (iv)
promptly to take all action provided herein to protect the
rights of the Holder against dilution.

     4.   This Agreement (and the Option granted hereby) are
exchangeable, without expense, at the option of the Holder, upon
presentation and surrender of this Agreement at the principal
office of Issuer, for other Agreements providing for Options of
different denominations entitling the holder thereof to
purchase, on the same terms and subject to the same conditions
as are set forth herein, in the aggregate the same number of
shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder. The terms
"Agreement" and "Option" as used herein include any Stock Option
Agreements and related Options for which this Agreement (and the
Option granted hereby) may

                          A-6
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
be exchanged. Upon receipt by Issuer of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation
of this Agreement, and (in the case of loss, theft or
destruction) of reasonably satisfactory indemnification, and
upon surrender and cancellation of this Agreement, if mutilated,
Issuer will execute and deliver a new Agreement of like tenor
and date. Any such new Agreement executed and delivered shall
constitute an additional contractual obligation on the part of
Issuer, whether or not the
Agreement so lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated shall at any
time be enforceable by anyone.

     5.   In addition to the adjustment in the number of shares
of Common Stock that are purchasable upon exercise of the Option
pursuant to Section 1 of this Agreement, the number of shares of
Common Stock purchasable upon the exercise of the Option and the
Option Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as
provided in this Section 5. In the event of any change in, or
distributions in respect of, the Common Stock by reason of stock
dividends, splitups, mergers, recapitalizations, combinations,
subdivisions, conversions, exchanges of shares, distributions on
or in respect of the Common Stock that would be prohibited under
the terms of the Merger Agreement, or the like, the type and
number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise
hereof and the Option Price shall be appropriately adjusted in
such manner as shall fully preserve the economic benefits
provided hereunder and proper provision shall be made in any
agreement governing any such transaction to provide for such
proper adjustment and the full satisfaction of the Issuer's
obligations hereunder.

     6.   Upon the occurrence of a Subsequent Triggering Event
that occurs prior to an Exercise Termination Event, Issuer
shall, at the request of Grantee delivered within 90 days of
such Subsequent Triggering Event (whether on its own behalf or
on behalf of any subsequent holder of this Option (or part
thereof) or any of the shares of Common Stock issued pursuant
hereto), promptly prepare, file and keep current a shelf
registration statement under the 1933 Act covering this Option
and any shares issued and issuable pursuant to this Option and
shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such registration
statement to become effective and remain current in order to
permit the sale or other disposition of this Option and any
shares of Common Stock issued upon total or partial exercise of
this Option ("Option Shares") in accordance with any plan of
disposition requested by Grantee. Issuer will use its reasonable
best efforts to cause such registration statement first to
become effective and then to remain effective for such
period not in excess of 180 days from the day such registration
statement first becomes effective or such shorter time as may be
reasonably necessary to effect such sales or other dispositions.
Grantee shall have the right to demand two such registrations.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, at the time of any request by
the Holder for registration of Option Shares as provided above,
Issuer is in registration with respect to an underwritten public
offering of shares of Common Stock, and if in the good faith
judgment of the managing underwriter or managing underwriters,
or, if none, the sole underwriter or underwriters, of such
offering the inclusion of the Holder's Option or Option Shares
would interfere with the successful marketing of the shares of
Common Stock offered by Issuer, the number of Option Shares
otherwise to be covered in the registration statement
contemplated hereby may be reduced; provided further, however,
that if such reduction occurs, then the Issuer shall file a
registration statement for the balance as promptly as practical
and no reduction shall thereafter occur.  Each such Holder shall
provide all information reasonably requested by Issuer for
inclusion in any registration statement to be filed hereunder.
If requested by any such Holder in connection with such
registration, Issuer shall become a party to any

                          A-7
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
underwriting agreement relating to the sale of such shares, but
only to the extent of obligating itself in respect of
representations, warranties, indemnities and other agreements
customarily included in secondary offering underwriting
agreements for the Issuer. Upon receiving any request under this
Section 6 from any Holder, Issuer agrees to send a copy thereof
to any other person known to Issuer to be entitled to
registration rights under this Section 6, in each case by
promptly mailing the same, postage prepaid, to the address of
record of the persons entitled to receive such copies.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no
event shall Issuer be obligated to effect more than two
registrations pursuant to this Section 6 by reason of the fact
that there shall be more than one Grantee as a result of any
assignment or division of this Agreement.

     7.   (a) In the event that prior to an Exercise Termination
Event, Issuer shall enter into an agreement (i) to consolidate
with or merge into any person, other than Grantee or one of its
Subsidiaries, and shall not be the continuing or surviving
corporation of such consolidation or merger, (ii) to permit any
person, other than Grantee or one of its Subsidiaries, to merge
into Issuer and Issuer shall be the continuing or surviving
corporation, but, in connection with such merger, the then
outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be changed into or
exchanged for stock or other securities of any other person or
cash or any other property or the then outstanding shares of
Common Stock shall after such merger represent less than 50% of
the outstanding voting shares and voting share equivalents of
the merged company, or (iii) to sell or otherwise transfer all
or substantially all of its assets to any person, other than
Grantee or one of its Subsidiaries, then, and in each such case,
the agreement governing such transaction shall make proper
provision so that the Option shall, upon the consummation of any
such transaction and upon the terms and conditions set forth
herein, be converted into, or exchanged for, an option (the
"Substitute Option"), at the election of the Holder, of either
(x) the Acquiring Corporation (as hereinafter defined) or (y)
any person that controls the Acquiring Corporation.

     (b)  The following terms have the meanings indicated:

          (1)  "Acquiring Corporation" shall mean (i) the
     continuing or surviving corporation of a consolidation
     merger with Issuer (if other than Issuer), (ii) Issuer in a
     merger in which Issuer is the continuing surviving person,
     and (iii) the transferee of all or substantially all of
     Issuer's assets.

          (2)  "Substitute Common Stock" shall mean the common
     stock issued by the issuer of the Substitute Option upon
     exercise of the Substitute Option.

          (3)  "Assigned Value" shall mean the highest of (i)
     the price per share of Common Stock at which a tender offer
     or exchange offer therefor has been made, (ii) the
     price per share of Common Stock to be paid by any third
     party pursuant to an agreement with Issuer, (iii) the
     highest closing price for shares of Common Stock within the
     six-month period immediately preceding the date the Holder
     gives notice of the required repurchase of this Option or
     the owner of the Option Shares (the "Owner") gives notice
     of the required repurchase of Option Shares, as the case
     may be, or (iv) in the event of a sale of all or a
     substantial portion of Issuer's assets, the sum of the
     price paid in such sale for such assets and the current
     market value of the remaining assets of Issuer
     as determined


                          A-8
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
     by a nationally recognized investment banking firm selected
     by the Holder or the Owner, as the case may be, and
     reasonably acceptable to the Issuer, divided by the
     number of shares of Common Stock of Issuer outstanding at
     the time of such sale.  In determining the Assigned Value,
     the value of consideration other than cash shall be
     determined by a nationally recognized investment banking
     firm selected by the Holder or the Owner, as the case may
     be, and reasonably acceptable to the Issuer.

          (4)  "Average Price" shall mean the average closing
     price of a share of the Substitute Common Stock for the one
     year immediately preceding the consolidation, merger or
     sale in question, but in no event lower than the closing
     price of the shares of Substitute Common Stock on the day
     preceding such consolidation, merger or sale; provided that
     if Issuer is the issuer of the Substitute Option, the
     Average Price shall be computed with respect to a share of
     common stock issued by the person merging into Issuer or by
     any company which controls or is controlled by such person,
     as the Holder may elect.

     (c)  The Substitute Option shall have the same terms as the
Option, provided, that if the terms of the Substitute Option
cannot, for legal reasons, be the same as the Option, such terms
shall be as similar as possible and in no event less
advantageous to the Holder. The issuer of the Substitute Option
shall also enter into an agreement with the then Holder or
Holders of the Substitute Option in substantially the same form
as this Agreement, which shall be applicable to the Substitute
Option.

     (d)  The Substitute Option shall be exercisable for such
number of shares of Substitute Common Stock as is equal to the
Assigned Value multiplied by the number of shares of Common
Stock for which the Option is then exercisable, divided by the
Average Price. The exercise price of the Substitute Option per
share of Substitute Common Stock shall then be equal to the
Option Price multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which
shall be the number of shares of Common Stock for which the
Option is then exercisable and the denominator of which shall be
the number of shares of Substitute Common Stock for which the
Substitute Option is exercisable.

     (e)  In no event, pursuant to any of the foregoing
paragraphs, shall the Substitute Option be exercisable for more
than 19.99% of the shares of Substitute Common Stock outstanding
prior to exercise of the Substitute Option. In the event that
the Substitute Option would be exercisable for more than 19.99%
of the shares of Substitute Common Stock outstanding prior to
exercise but for this clause (e), the issuer of the Substitute
Option (the "Substitute Option Issuer") shall make a cash
payment to Holder equal to the excess of (i) the value of the
Substitute Option without giving effect to the limitation in
this clause (e) over (ii) the value of the Substitute Option
after giving effect to the limitation in this clause (e). This
difference in value shall be determined by a nationally
recognized investment banking firm selected by the Holder or the
Owner, as the case may be, and reasonably acceptable to the
Acquiring Corporation.

                          A-9
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
     (f)  Issuer shall not enter into any transaction described
in subsection (a) of this Section 7 unless the Acquiring
Corporation and any person that controls the Acquiring
Corporation assume in writing all the obligations of Issuer
hereunder.

     8.   (a) At the request of the holder of the Substitute
Option (the "Substitute Option Holder"), the Substitute Option
Issuer shall repurchase the Substitute Option from the
Substitute Option Holder at a price (the "Substitute Option
Repurchase Price") equal to (x) the amount by which (i) the
Highest Closing Price (as hereinafter defined) exceeds (ii) the
exercise price of the Substitute Option, multiplied by the
number of shares of Substitute Common Stock for which the
Substitute Option may then be exercised plus (y) Grantee's
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (to the extent not previously
reimbursed), and at the request of the owner (the "Substitute
Share Owner") of shares of Substitute Common Stock (the
"Substitute Shares"), the Substitute Option Issuer shall
repurchase the Substitute Shares at a price (the "Substitute
Share Repurchase Price") equal to (x) the Highest Closing Price
multiplied by the number of Substitute Shares so designated plus
(y) Grantee's reasonable Out-of-Pocket Expenses (to the extent
not previously reimbursed). The term "Highest Closing Price"
shall mean the highest closing price for shares of Substitute
Stock within the six-month period immediately preceding the date
the Substitute Option Holder gives notice of the required
repurchase of the Substitute Option or the Substitute Share
Owner gives notice of the required repurchase of the Substitute
Shares, as applicable.

     (b)  The Substitute Option Holder and the Substitute Share
Owner, as the case may be, may exercise its respective right to
require the Substitute Option Issuer to repurchase the
Substitute Option and the Substitute Shares pursuant to this
Section 8 by surrendering for such purpose to the Substitute
Option Issuer, at its principal office, the agreement for such
Substitute Option (or, in the absence of such an agreement, a
copy of this Agreement) and certificates for Substitute Shares
accompanied by a written notice or notices stating that the
Substitute Option Holder or the Substitute Share Owner, as the
case may be, elects to require the Substitute Option Issuer to
repurchase the Substitute Option and/or the Substitute Shares in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 8. As promptly as
practicable, and in any event within five business days after
the surrender of the Substitute Option and/or certificates
representing Substitute Shares and the receipt of such
notice or notices relating thereto, the Substitute Option Issuer
shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Substitute Option
Holder the Substitute Option Repurchase Price and/or to the
Substitute Share Owner the Substitute Share Repurchase Price
therefor or, in either case, the portion thereof which the
Substitute Option Issuer is not then prohibited under applicable
law and regulation from so delivering.

     (c)  To the extent that the Substitute Option Issuer is
prohibited under applicable law or regulation from repurchasing
the Substitute Option and/or the Substitute Shares in part or in
full, the Substitute Option Issuer following a request for
repurchase pursuant to this Section 8 shall immediately so
notify the Substitute Option Holder and/or the Substitute Share
Owner and thereafter deliver or cause to be delivered, from time
to time, to the Substitute Option Holder and/or the Substitute
Share Owner, as appropriate, the portion of the Substitute Share
Repurchase Price, respectively, which it is no longer prohibited
from delivering, within five business days after the date on
which the Substitute Option Issuer is no longer so prohibited;
provided, however, that if the Substitute Option Issuer is at
any time after delivery of a notice of repurchase pursuant to
subsection (b) of this Section 8 prohibited under applicable law
or regulation from delivering to the Substitute Option Holder
and/or the Substitute Share Owner, as appropriate, the
                          A-10
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Substitute Option Repurchase Price and the Substitute Share
Repurchase Price, respectively, in full (and the Substitute
Option Issuer shall use its best efforts to obtain all required
regulatory and legal approvals, in each case as promptly as
practicable in order to accomplish such repurchase), the
Substitute Option Holder or Substitute Share Owner may revoke
its notice of repurchase of the Substitute Option or the
Substitute Shares either in whole or to the extent of the
prohibition, whereupon, in the latter case, the Substitute
Option Issuer shall promptly (i) deliver to the Substitute
Option Holder or Substitute Share Owner, as appropriate, that
portion of the Substitute Option Repurchase Price or the
Substitute Share Repurchase Price that the
Substitute Option Issuer is not prohibited from delivering, and
(ii) deliver, as appropriate, either (A) to the Substitute
Option Holder, a new Substitute Option evidencing the right of
the Substitute Option Holder to purchase that number of shares
of the Substitute Common Stock obtained by multiplying the
number of shares of the Substitute Common Stock for which the
surrendered Substitute Option was exercisable at the time of
delivery of the notice of repurchase by a fraction, the
numerator of which is the Substitute Option Repurchase Price
less the portion thereof theretofore delivered to the Substitute
Option Holder and the denominator of which is the Substitute
Option Repurchase Price, or (B) to the Substitute Share Owner, a
certificate for the Substitute Common Shares it is then so
prohibited from repurchasing.

     9.   The 60-day period for exercise of certain rights under
Sections 2, 6, and 12 shall be extended: (i) to the extent
necessary to obtain all regulatory approvals for the exercise of
such rights, and for the expiration of all statutory waiting
periods; and (ii) to the extent necessary to avoid liability
under Section 16(b) of the 1934 Act by reason of such exercise.

     10.  Issuer hereby represents and warrants to Grantee as
follows:

     (a)  Issuer has full corporate power and authority to
execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery of
this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby have been duly and validly authorized by the
Board of Directors of Issuer and no other corporate proceedings
on the part of Issuer are necessary to authorize this Agreement
or to consummate the transactions so contemplated. This
Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by
Issuer.

     (b)  Subject to Section 3, Issuer has taken all necessary
corporate action to authorize and reserve and to permit it to
issue, and at all times from the date hereof through the
termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms will
have reserved for issuance upon the exercise of the Option, that
number of shares of Common Stock equal to the maximum number of
shares of Common Stock at any time and from time to time
issuable hereunder, and all such shares, upon issuance pursuant
hereto, will be duly authorized, validly issued fully paid,
nonassessable, and will be delivered free and clear of all
claims, liens, encumbrance and security interests and not
subject to any preemptive rights.

                          A-11
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
     11.  Grantee hereby represents and warrants to Issuer that:

     (a)  Grantee has all requisite corporate power and
authority to enter into this Agreement and, subject to any
approvals or consents referred to herein, to consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery of
this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary
corporate action on the part of Grantee. This Agreement has been
duly executed and delivered by Grantee.

     (b)  The Option is not being, and any shares of Common
Stock or other securities acquired by Grantee upon exercise of
the Option will not be, acquired with a view to the public
distribution thereof and will not be transferred or otherwise
disposed of except in a transaction registered or exempt from
registration under the 1933 Act.

     12.  Neither of the parties hereto may assign any of its
rights or obligations under this Option Agreement or the Option
created hereunder to any other person, without the express
written consent of the other party, except that in the event a
Subsequent Triggering Event shall have occurred prior to an
Exercise Termination Event, Grantee, subject to the express
provisions hereof, may assign in whole or in part its rights and
obligations hereunder within 60 days following such Subsequent
Triggering Event (or such later period as provided in Section
9); provided, however, that until the date 15 days following the
date on which the Federal Reserve Board approves an application
by Grantee under the BHCA to acquire the shares of Common Stock
subject to the Option, Grantee may not assign its rights under
the Option except in (i) a widely dispersed public distribution,
(ii) a private placement in which no one party acquires the
right to purchase in excess of 2% of the voting shares of
Issuer, (iii) an assignment to a single party (e.g., a broker or
investment banker) for the purpose of conducting a widely
dispersed public distribution on Grantee's behalf, or (iv)
any other manner approved by the Federal Reserve Board or any
other regulatory authority having appropriate jurisdiction.

     13.  Each of Grantee and Issuer will use its best efforts
to make all filings with, and to obtain consents of, all third
parties and governmental authorities necessary to the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement,
including without limitation applying to the Federal Reserve
Board under the BHCA or any other governmental authority for
approval to acquire the shares issuable hereunder, but Grantee
shall not be obligated to apply to state banking authorities for
approval to acquire the shares of Common Stock issuable
hereunder until such time, if ever, as it deems appropriate to
do so.

     14.  The parties hereto acknowledge that damages would be
an inadequate remedy for a breach of this Agreement by either
party hereto and that the obligations of the parties hereto
shall be enforceable by either party hereto through injunctive
or other equitable relief.

     15.  If any term, provision, covenant or restriction
contained in this Agreement is held by a court or a federal or
state regulatory agency of competent jurisdiction to be invalid
void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions
and covenants and restrictions contained in this Agreement shall
remain in full force and effect, and shall in no way be
affected, impaired or invalidated. If for any reason such court
or regulatory agency determines that the Holder is not

                          A-12
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
permitted to acquire the full number of shares of Common Stock
provided in Section 1(a) hereof (as adjusted pursuant to Section
1(b) or 5 hereof), it is the express intention of Issuer to
allow the Holder to acquire or to require Issuer to repurchase
such lesser number of shares as may be permissible, without any
amendment or modification hereof.

     16.  All notices, requests, claims, demands and other
communications hereunder shall be deemed to have been duly given
when delivered in person, by cable, telegram, telecopy or telex,
or by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid, return
receipt requested) at the respective addresses of the parties
set forth in the Merger Agreement.

     17.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia, regardless of
the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles
of conflicts of laws thereof.

     18.  This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original,
but all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement.

     19.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, each of
the parties hereto shall bear and pay all costs and expenses
incurred by it or on its behalf in connection with the
transactions contemplated hereunder, including fees and expenses
of its own financial consultants, investment bankers,
accountants and counsel.

     20.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in
the Merger Agreement, this Agreement contains the entire
agreement between the parties with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereunder and supersedes all prior arrangements or
understandings with respect thereof, written or oral. The terms
and conditions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of
and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective
successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in this Agreement,
expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any party,
other than the parties hereto, and their respective successors
except as assigns, any rights, remedies, obligations or
liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as
expressly provided herein.

     21.  Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not
defined herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the
Merger Agreement.

       FORM OF SUPPORT AND NON COMPETITION AGREEMENT


   THIS SUPPORT AND NON COMPETITION AGREEMENT (this "Agreement")
is made and entered into as of the 5th day of August, 1999, by
and between the undersigned, ___________________________, a
resident of _______________, North Carolina, and Century South
Banks, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under the laws
of the State of Georgia ("CSBI").

   CSBI, HBI Acquisition Corp., a corporation organized and
existing under the laws of the State of North Carolina ("HAC")
and a wholly owned subsidiary of CSBI and Haywood Bancshares,
Inc., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the
State of North Carolina ("Haywood"), have entered into an
Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of August 5, 1999 (the
"Merger Agreement").   The Merger Agreement generally provides
for the merger of HAC into Haywood (the "Merger") and the
conversion of the issued and outstanding shares of the $1.00 par
value common stock of Haywood (the "Haywood Common Stock") into
shares of the $1.00 par value common stock of CSBI (the "CSBI
Common Stock") or cash or both.  The Merger Agreement is subject
to the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the
outstanding shares of Haywood Common Stock, the receipt of
certain regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of other
conditions.

     The undersigned is a member of the Board of Directors of
Haywood and is the owner of _______ shares Haywood Common Stock
(collectively, the "Shares").  In order to induce CSBI to enter
into the Merger Agreement, the undersigned is entering into this
Agreement with CSBI to set forth certain terms and conditions
governing the actions to be taken by the undersigned solely in
his capacity as a shareholder of Haywood with respect to the
Shares until consummation of the Merger.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the transactions
contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the mutual promises and
covenants contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

     1.  Without the prior written consent of CSBI, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, the undersigned
shall not transfer, sell, assign, convey or encumber (except for
such encumbrances that are made with recourse) any of the Shares
during the term of this Agreement except for transfers (i) by
operation of law, by order of a court of competent jurisdiction,
by will or pursuant to the laws of descent and distribution,
(ii) in which the transferee shall agree in writing to be bound
by the provisions of paragraphs 1, 2 and 3 of this Agreement as
fully as the undersigned, (iii) by a bona fide gift to a family
member or charitable organization, or (iv) to CSBI pursuant to
the terms of the Merger Agreement.  Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the undersigned shall not grant to
any party any option or right to purchase the Shares or any
interest therein.


     2.  The undersigned intends to, and will, vote (or cause to
be voted) all of the Shares over which the undersigned has
voting authority (other than in a fiduciary capacity) in favor
of the
                        B-1
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Merger Agreement and the Merger at any meeting of shareholders
of Haywood called to vote on the Merger Agreement or the Merger
or the adjournment thereof or in any other circumstance upon
which a vote, or other approval with respect to the Merger
Agreement or the Merger is sought.  Further, the undersigned
intends to, and will, surrender the certificate or certificates
representing the Shares over which the undersigned has
dispositive authority to CSBI upon consummation of the Merger as
described in the Merger Agreement and hereby waives any rights
of appraisal, or rights to dissent from the Merger, that the
undersigned may have.

     3.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, at any
meeting of shareholders of Haywood or at any adjournment thereof
or any other circumstances upon which their vote, consent or
other approval is sought, the undersigned will vote (or cause to
be voted) all of the Shares over which the undersigned has
voting authority (other than in a fiduciary capacity) against
(i) any merger agreement, share exchange or merger (other than
the Merger Agreement and the Merger), consolidation,
combination, sale of substantial assets, merger,
recapitalization, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of or
by Haywood or (ii) any amendment of Haywood's Articles of
Incorporation or Bylaws or other proposal or transaction
involving Haywood or any of its subsidiaries, which amendment or
other proposal or transaction would in any manner impede,
frustrate, prevent or nullify the Merger, the Merger Agreement
or any of the other transactions contemplated thereby.

     4.  The undersigned covenants and agrees with CSBI that for
a period of two years after the effective time of the Merger,
the undersigned shall not, without the prior written consent of
CSBI, directly or indirectly serve as a consultant to, serve as
a management official of, or be or become a major shareholder of
any financial institution having an office in an area within a
circle having a 50 mile radius from any location where Haywood
maintains an office as of the date of this Agreement other than
serving as a management official of Haywood.  For purposes of
the covenants contained in this paragraph 4, the following terms
shall have the following respective meanings:

          (a)  The term "management official" shall refer to
               service of any type which gives the undersigned
               the authority to participate, directly or
               indirectly, in policy-making functions of the
               financial institution.  This includes, but is
               not limited to, service as an organizer,
               officer, director or advisory director of the
               financial institution.  It is expressly
               understood that the undersigned may be deemed a
               management official of the financial institution
               whether or not the undersigned holds any
               official, elected or appointed position with
               such financial institution.

          (b)  The term "financial institution" shall refer to
               any bank, bank holding company, savings and loan
               association, savings and loan holding company,
               or any other similar financial institution which
               engages in the business of accepting deposits
               and making loans or which owns or controls a
               company which engages in the business of
               accepting deposits and making loans.  It is
               expressly understood that the term financial
               institution shall include any financial

                       __________________


Century South Banks, Inc.
60 Main Street West - Third Floor
Dahlonega, Georgia 30533

Attention:  James A. Faulkner, Vice Chairman and Chief Executive
            Officer

Ladies and Gentlemen:

    The undersigned is a shareholder of Haywood Bancshares, Inc.
("Haywood"), a bank holding company organized under the laws of
the State of North Carolina and located in Waynesville, North
Carolina, and will become a shareholder of Century South Banks,
Inc. ("CSBI"), a bank holding company organized under the laws
of the State of Georgia and located in Dahlonega, Georgia,
pursuant to the transactions described in the Agreement and Plan
of Merger, dated as of August 5, 1999 (the "Agreement"), by and
among Haywood, CSBI and HBI Acquisition Corp. ("HAC").  Pursuant
to the terms of the Agreement, HAC will be merged with and into
Haywood (the "Merger"), and the shares of the $1.00 par value
common stock of Haywood (the "Haywood Common Stock") will be
converted into and exchanged for shares of the $1.00 par value
common stock of CSBI (the "CSBI Common Stock").  This Affiliate
Agreement represents an agreement between the undersigned and
CSBI regarding certain rights and obligations of the undersigned
in connection with the shares of CSBI Common Stock to be
received by the undersigned as a result of the Merger.

    In consideration of the Merger and the mutual covenants
contained herein, the undersigned and CSBI hereby agree as
follows:

     1.  Affiliate Status.  The undersigned understands and
agrees that as to Haywood, the undersigned may be deemed to be
an "affiliate" under Rule 145(c) as defined in Rule 405 of the
rules and regulations (the "Rules and Regulations") of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), and the
undersigned anticipates that he may be deemed an "affiliate" at
the time of the Merger; provided that execution of this
Affiliate Agreement should not be construed as an admission by
the undersigned that the undersigned is an "affiliate" of
Haywood as described in this Affiliate Agreement or as a waiver
of any rights the undersigned may have to object to any claim
that the undersigned is such an affiliate on or after the
date of the Affiliate Agreement.

                          C-1

<PAGE>
<PAGE>
     2.  Covenants and Warranties of Undersigned.  The
undersigned represents, warrants and agrees that:

         (a)  The CSBI Common Stock received by the undersigned
as a result of the Merger will be taken for his own account and
not for others, directly, or indirectly, in whole or in part.

         (b)  CSBI has informed the undersigned that any
distribution by the undersigned of CSBI Common Stock has not
been registered under the 1933 Act and that shares of CSBI
Common Stock received pursuant to the Merger can only be sold by
the undersigned (i following registration under the 1933 Act, or
(ii) in conformity with the volume and other requirements of
Rule 145(d) promulgated by the SEC as the same now exist or may
hereafter be amended, or (iii) to the extent some other
exemption from registration under the 1933 Act might be
available.  THE UNDERSIGNED UNDERSTANDS THAT CSBI IS UNDER NO
OBLIGATION TO FILE A REGISTRATION STATEMENT WITH THE SEC
COVERING THE DISPOSITION OF THE UNDERSIGNED'S SHARES OF
CSBI COMMON STOCK OR TO TAKE ANY OTHER ACTION NECESSARY TO MAKE
COMPLIANCE WITH AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION AVAILABLE.

     3.  Restrictions on Transfer.  The undersigned understands
and agrees that stop transfer instructions with respect to the
shares of CSBI Common Stock received by the undersigned pursuant
to the Merger will be given to CSBI's transfer agent and that
there will be placed on the certificates for such shares, or
shares issued in substitution thereof, a legend stating in
substance:

        "The shares represented by this certificate were
        issued pursuant to a business combination and may
        not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of
        except or unless (1) covered by an effective
        registration statement under the Securities Act
        of 1933, as amended, (2) in accordance with (i)
        Rule 145(d) (in the case of shares issued to an
        individual who is not an affiliate of Century
        South Banks, Inc. ("CSBI")) or (ii) Rule 144 (in
        the case of shares issued to an individual who is
        an affiliate of CSBI) of the Rules and
        Regulations of such Act, or (3) in accordance
        with a legal opinion satisfactory to counsel for
        CSBI that such sale or transfer is otherwise
        exempt from the registration requirements of the
        Act."

Such legend will also be placed on any certificate representing
CSBI securities issued subsequent to the original issuance of
the CSBI Common Stock pursuant to the Merger as a result of any
stock dividend, stock split or other recapitalization as long as
the CSBI Common Stock issued to the undersigned pursuant to the
Merger has not been transferred in such a manner as to justify
the removal of the legend therefrom.  In addition, if the
provisions of Rules 144 and 145 are amended to eliminate
restrictions applicable to the CSBI Common Stock received by the
undersigned pursuant to the Merger, or at the expiration of the
restrictive period set forth in Rule 145(d), CSBI, upon the
request of the undersigned, will cause the certificates
representing the shares of CSBI Common Stock issued to the
undersigned in connection with the Merger to the reissued free
of any legend relating to the restrictions set forth in Rules
144 and 145(d) upon

                          C-2

<PAGE>
<PAGE>
receipt by CSBI of an opinion of its counsel to the effect that
such legend may be removed.

     4.   Understanding of Restrictions on Dispositions.  The
undersigned has carefully read the Agreement and this Affiliate
Agreement and discussed the requirements of such documents and
other applicable limitations upon his ability to sell, transfer
or otherwise dispose of the shares of CSBI Common Stock received
by the undersigned, to the extent he believes necessary, with
his counsel or counsel for Haywood.

     5.   Filing of Reports by CSBI. CSBI agrees, for a period
of two years after the effective date of the Merger, to file on
a timely basis all reports required to be filed by it pursuant
to Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the "1934 Act"), so that the public information provisions of
Rule 145(d) promulgated by the SEC, as the same are presently in
effect, will be satisfied in the event the undersigned desires
to transfer any shares of CSBI Common Stock  issued to the
undersigned pursuant to the Merger.

     6.   Transfer Under Rule 145(d).  If the undersigned
desires to sell or otherwise transfer the shares of CSBI Common
Stock received by him in connection with the Merger at any time
during the restrictive period set forth in Rule 145(d), the
undersigned will provide the necessary representation letter to
the transfer agent for CSBI Common Stock together with such
additional information as the transfer agent may reasonably
request.  If CSBI's counsel concludes that such proposed sale or
transfer complies with the requirements of Rule 145(d), CSBI
shall cause such counsel to provide such opinions as may be
necessary to CSBI's transfer agent so that the undersigned may
complete the proposed sale or transfer.

     7.   Acknowledgments.  The undersigned recognizes and
agrees that the foregoing provisions also apply to all shares of
the Capital Stock of Haywood and CSBI that are deemed to be
beneficially owned by the undersigned pursuant to applicable
federal securities laws, which the undersigned agrees may
include, without limitation, shares owned or held in the name
of, (i) the undersigned's spouse, (ii) any relative of the
undersigned or of the undersigned's spouse who has the same home
as the undersigned, (iii) any trust or estate in which the
undersigned, the undersigned's spouse and any such relative
collectively own at least 10% beneficial interest or of which
any of the foregoing serves as trustee, executor or in any
similar capacity, and (iv) any corporation or other organization
in which the undersigned, the undersigned's spouse and any such
relative collectively own at least 10% of any class of equity
securities or of the equity interest.  The undersigned further
recognizes that, in the event that the undersigned is a director
or executive officer of CSBI or becomes a director or executive
officer of CSBI upon consummation of the Merger, among other
things, any sale of CSBI Common Stock by the undersigned within
a period of less than six months following the  effective time
of the Merger may subject the undersigned to liability pursuant
to Section 16(b) of the 1934 Act.  In such event, the Board of
Directors of CSBI will adopt such resolutions as advised by its
counsel to provide appropriate exemption to such director or
executive officer from Section 16(b) of the 1934 Act.

     8.   Miscellaneous.  This Affiliate Agreement is the
complete agreement between CSBI and the undersigned concerning
the subject matter hereof.  Any notice required to be sent
to any party hereunder shall be sent by registered or certified
mail, return receipt requested, using the addresses set forth
herein or such other address as shall be furnished in writing by

Bank to undertake reasonable assignments consistent with his

Event of Termination (as hereinafter defined) during the period

"Event of Termination" shall mean the termination of Executive's
employment hereunder for any reason.

          (b)  Compensation upon Event of Termination.  Upon the

occurrence of an Event of Termination, the Bank shall pay to the
Executive and provide the Executive, or to his beneficiaries,
dependents and estate, as the case may be, with the following:

               (i) If the Event of Termination is during the
first 24 months of the term of this Agreement, the Bank shall
promptly pay to the Executive an amount (the "280G Maximum")
equal to the difference between (i) the product of 2.99 times
his "base amount" as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") and

                        D-8

<PAGE>
<PAGE>
regulations promulgated thereunder, and (ii) the sum of any
other parachute payments (as defined under Section 280G(b)(2) of
the Code) that the Executive receives on account of the change
in control.  Said sum shall be paid in one lump sum within ten
(10) days of such termination.  If the Event of Termination is
after the first 24 months of the term of this Agreement, the
Bank shall promptly pay the Executive an amount equal to the
280G Maximum multiplied by a fraction, where the denominator of
such fraction equals thirty-six (36) and the numerator equals
the number of whole calendar months remaining in the term of
this Agreement.  Said sum shall be paid in one lump sum
within ten (10) days of such termination. Notwithstanding the
foregoing,  any amount due under this paragraph 8(b)(i) shall be
paid in the manner selected by the Executive in a duly executed
election in the form attached hereto as Exhibit "A"; provided
that such an election will be honored and given effect only if
it is properly made and delivered to the Bank more than 180 days
before the date on which the Event of Termination occurs.
Deferred amounts shall bear interest, from the date on which
they would otherwise be paid in a lump sum until the date paid,
at a rate equal to 120% of the applicable federal rate,
compounded semiannually, as determined under Code Section
1274(d) and the regulations thereunder.

               (ii)  During the period of thirty-six (36)
calendar months beginning with the Event of Termination, the
Executive, his dependents, beneficiaries and estate shall
continue to be covered under all employee benefit plans of the
Bank, including, without limitation, the

                        D-9

hereunder.
