SOUTH STREET FINANCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS



The following discussion and analysis is intended to assist readers in understanding the
results of operations in 2004 and 2003 and changes in financial position at December 31, 2004. This discussion and analysis is intended to complement and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company
and related notes appearing elsewhere in this annual report to stockholders.



Description of Business



South Street Financial Corp. (the
Company) was incorporated under laws of the State of North Carolina for the purpose of becoming the bank holding company of Home Savings Bank of Albemarle, Inc., SSB (the Bank, Home Savings or Home) in connection with the Banks conversion from
a state chartered mutual savings bank to a state chartered stock savings bank (the Conversion), pursuant to its Plan of Conversion. A subscription and community offering of the Companys shares closed on October 2, 1996, at which time the
Company acquired all of the shares of the Bank and commenced operations.



In
accordance with the Plan of Conversion, the Company issued 4,496,500 shares of common stock at the price of $10 per share which resulted in proceeds of $43,645,000, net of conversion costs. The Company transferred $19,558,000 of the net proceeds to
Home Savings for the purchase of all of the capital stock of the Bank.



The
Company has no operations and conducts no business of its own other than owning Home Savings, investing its portion of the net proceeds received in the conversion, and lending funds to the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the ESOP) which was formed in
connection with the Conversion. The principal business of the Bank is accepting deposits from the general public and using those deposits and other sources of funds to make loans secured by real estate and other forms of collateral located in the
Banks primary market area of Stanly County, North Carolina.



Home
Savings results of operations depend primarily on its net interest income, which is the difference between interest income from interest-earning assets and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities. The Banks operations are also
affected by noninterest income, such as miscellaneous income from loans, customer deposit account service charges, and other sources of revenue. The Banks principal operating expenses, aside from interest expense, consist of compensation and
associated benefits, federal deposit insurance premiums, occupancy costs, and other general and administrative expenses.



The Bank has a wholly owned subsidiary, South Street Development Corp. (SSDC), which was formed in 1998 with a $1.8 million cash investment. In 1998, SSDC
acquired a 50% interest in Park Ridge Associates, L.L.C. (Park Ridge). In June 1998, Park Ridge acquired 25.6 acres of prime real estate located within the city limits of Albemarle, North Carolina. Park Ridge acquired the real estate to
develop it into a residential subdivision. During 2000, SSDC purchased all of Park Ridges interest in the property and SSDC is currently the 100% owner of the residential subdivision.



The upscale subdivision consists of 30 building lots of which 3 have been retained by the
sellers and 13 have been sold to buyers. The Bank has recognized $315,247 in net gains on the lots sold since the inception of the project. There can be no assurances that the Bank will be successful in recovering its investment in the venture, due
to the uncertainty inherent in the construction industry and in the real estate market.

SOUTH STREET FINANCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS



The following discussion and analysis contains the consolidated financial results for the Company, Home Savings, SSDC and Park Ridge for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003. Because the Company has no operations and conducts no
business other than as described above and SSDC and Park Ridge assets are primarily real estate held for investment and their operations have not significantly impacted the consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2004 and
2003, the discussion contained in this Managements Discussion and Analysis concerns primarily the business of the Bank. However, for ease of reading and because the financial statements are presented on a consolidated basis, the Company and
the Bank and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to herein as the Company unless otherwise noted.



Comparison of Financial Condition at December 31, 2004 and 2003



During 2004, the Companys total assets decreased by $4.6 million, or 2.1%, from $220.2 million at December 31, 2003 to $215.6 million at December 31, 2004. This decrease in our total assets resulted primarily
from decreases in our liquid assets and Federal Home Bank Stock net of a increase in our net loan portfolio. Our liquid assets, consisting of cash and cash equivalents and investment securities, decreased from $62.7 million at December 31, 2003 to
$50.7 million at the end of 2004, a decrease of $12.0 million. Additionally during the year, FHLB repurchased $1,058,500 worth of FHLB stock held by the Bank. The repurchase was pursuant to a restructuring of FHLBs capital stock.



The decreases in the aforementioned asset categories were principally generated by the
increase in our net loans during 2004 of $9.10 million. This increase in our net loans resulted primarily from an increase during the year in our consumer and commercial loans. In 2003, management made the decision to not lower rates as aggressively
as many of our competitors. As rates began to rise in 2004 our rates became more competitive and attributed to the growth experienced in loans.



Also during 2004, deposits from our customers increased by $5.8 million to $186.9 million at December 31, 2004 compared with $181.1 with million at the beginning of the
year, with all of the increase occurring in certificates of deposit, which cost the Company significantly more than do demand accounts. The liquidity provided from these additional deposits, combined with that provided by the repurchase of stock by
the FHLB during the year, enabled us to significantly reduce our borrowings, which consist solely of advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank, from $10.0 million at December 31, 2003 to no outstanding balance at the end of the current year, a
decrease of $10.0 million or 100%.



Stockholders equity increased by
$84,000 during 2004. This net increase was the result of several factors. Items which increased stockholders equity were: net income of $1.1 million, principal payments received on the note receivable from the ESOP of $492,000, and
amortization of the return of capital dividends paid on unvested ESOP shares of $387,000. These increases were offset by the following items which decreased stockholders equity: Unrealized losses on available for sale investment securities of
$153,000, the payment of quarterly cash dividends totaling $1.1 million, or $.40 per share, and the repurchase of company stock in the amount of $321,200.

SOUTH STREET FINANCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS



Comparison of Operating Results for the Years Ended December 31, 2004 and 2003



Net Income



The Company earned net
income of $1.1 million or $.37 per share for 2004, as compared with net income of $1.2 million or $.43 per share in 2003. This reduction of $155,000 or $.05 per share is principally attributable to the decrease in our net interest income during
2004, which is analyzed further in the discussion that follows.



Net
Interest Income



Like most financial institutions, the primary component
of earnings for the Company is net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income, principally from loan and investment securities, and interest expense, principally on customer deposits and borrowings. Changes in net
interest income result from changes in volume, spread and margin. For this purpose, volume refers to the average dollar level of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, spread refers to the difference between the average yield on
interest-earning assets and the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities, and margin refers to net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets. Margin is influenced by the level and relative mix of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities, as well as by levels of noninterest-bearing liabilities and capital.



Net interest income decreased to $6.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2004, compared to the $6.3 million earned in 2003, a decrease of $199,000, as the decrease in our interest income surpassed the decrease in
our interest expense. During 2004 our level of average interest earning assets decreased from $207.1 million in 2003 to $197.5 million, and the average rate we earned on those assets dropped 21 basis points from 5.54% in 2003 to 5.33% in 2004. The
combined effect of these decreases resulted in the decrease in our interest income of $935,000. This decrease in our interest income, however, was somewhat negated by the decrease in our interest expense during 2004. While our average
interest-bearing liabilities decreased from $191.9 million in 2003 to $184.3 million in 2004, it is important to note that much of this decrease occurred in our advances from the FHLB net of an increase in our certificates of deposits, which have
rates significantly higher than our other types of interest-bearing liabilities. Additionally, the average rate we paid for our interest-bearing liabilities during the year dropped 29 basis points from 2.69% in 2003 to 2.40% in 2004.



The following table analyzes the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest
expense for major components of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The table distinguishes between (i) changes attributable to volume (changes in volume multiplied by the prior periods rate); (ii) changes attributable to
rate (changes in rate multiplied by the prior periods volume); and (iii) mixed changes (changes in volume multiplied by changes in rate), with any rate/volume variances allocated based on their absolute values.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS



Provision for Loan Losses and Asset Quality



The provision for
loan losses was $90,000 during 2004 compared to $120,000 in 2003. Also during 2004, our loan charge-offs increased from $73,000 in 2003 to $85,000. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level deemed adequate to absorb probable losses
inherent in the loan portfolio and results from managements consideration of such factors as the financial condition of the borrower, past and expected loss experience, and other factors management feels deserve recognition in establishing an
appropriate reserve. Although management attempts to maintain the allowance at a level deemed adequate, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based upon changes in market conditions. In addition, various regulatory agencies periodically
review our allowance for loan losses. These agencies may require us to make adjustments based upon their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.



The level of our non-performing loans, which consists of nonaccrual loans, increased from $730,000 at December 31, 2003 to $1.2 million at
December 31, 2004. The Company has adopted policies that it believes provide for prudent and adequate levels of loan loss allowances. At December 31, 2004, the allowance for loan losses amounted to $575,000, which management believes is adequate to
absorb losses inherent in its loan portfolio. The level of allowance for loan losses only increased by $5,000 during the year due to the $85,000 write-off mentioned above.



Noninterest Income



Non-interest income decreased $30,000 during the year from $819,000 during 2003 to $789,000 in 2004. This decrease resulted primarily from the decrease in sale of
mortgage loans net of increases in service charges on deposit accounts, which resulted from the aforementioned increase in our demand deposit accounts in 2004.



Noninterest Expense



Our compensation and benefits expense decrease $89,000 in 2004 compared to 2003. This decrease resulted from a decrease of the Companys ESOP expenses net of an increase in the pension expense for the year. The
decrease in ESOP expenses was due to a reduction in additional, disretionary contributions to the Companys ESOP plan. The decrease in compensation and benefits expense is offset by the increase of $71,000 in data processing expense for the
year.



Income Taxes



The provision for income taxes, as a percentage of income before income taxes, was 36.5% and
35.2% for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS



Capital Resources and Liquidity



The Company paid regular
quarterly cash dividends of $.40 per share in the aggregate during 2004 and 2003. Although the Company anticipates that it will continue to declare cash dividends on a regular basis, the Board of Directors will continue to review its policy on the
payment of dividends on an ongoing basis, and such payments will be subject to future earnings, cash flows, capital needs and regulatory restrictions.



The objective of Homes liquidity management is to ensure the availability of sufficient cash flows to meet all of its financial commitments. Liquidity management
addresses Homes ability to meet deposit withdrawals either on demand or at contractual maturity, to repay borrowings, if any, as they mature and to originate new loans and make investments as opportunities arise.



Significant liquidity sources for Home are cash provided by net loan repayments, new customer
deposits, operating activities, and the sale or maturity of investment securities. Cash flows from investing activities typically are dependent on the level of loan demand and the amount of new deposits that the Company is able to generate. During
the year ended December 31, 2004 cash inflow was provided by the redemption of FHLB stock in the amount of $1.1 million, proceeds from maturities, calls and principal repayments on securities of $11.6 million, cash provided by operating activities
of $1.2 million and an increase in deposits of $5.8 million. Significant cash outflows during 2004 included purchases of investment securities of $17.0 million, net loan originations of $8.4 million, and dividend payments of $1.1 million.



Levels of deposit accounts are impacted primarily by overall market rates and
the pricing policies that Home sets to attract or maintain its deposits, which are affected by Homes demand for loans and its other liquidity needs. Approximately 48% of Homes certificates of deposit outstanding at December 31, 2004 are
scheduled to mature within the next year. Management believes that substantially all of these deposits will be renewed and intends to price such deposits at competitive rates in order to ensure that these deposits are renewed. Home does not hold
brokered deposits or significant levels of public deposits which are less likely to renew if a higher rate of interest can be obtained elsewhere. Liquidity levels and Homes operations would be significantly hindered should a sizable portion of
these deposits not be renewed.



Cash provided by operating and financing
activities has historically been used by the Company to make new loans to its customers. Excess cash will be used in the future to make new loans as demand warrants and to maintain the Companys liquid investment portfolios by offsetting
maturities, which are timed to provide needed cash flows to meet anticipated short term liquidity requirements.



As a state chartered savings bank, Home must meet certain liquidity requirements, which are established by the Administrator of the North Carolina Savings Institutions
Division. Homes liquidity ratio at December 31, 2004, as computed under such regulations, was in excess of such requirements. Given its excess liquidity and its ability to borrow from the FHLB of Atlanta, Home believes that it will have
sufficient funds available to meet anticipated future loan commitments, unexpected deposit withdrawals, or other cash requirements.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS



Asset/Liability Management



Homes asset/liability
management, or interest rate risk management, is focused primarily on evaluating and managing Homes net interest income given various risk criteria. Factors beyond Homes control, such as the effects of changes in market interest rates
and competition, may also have an impact on the management of interest rate risk.



In the absence of other factors, Homes overall yield on interest-earning assets will increase as will its cost of funds on its interest-bearing liabilities when market rates increase over an extended period of time. Inversely,
Homes yields and cost of funds will decrease when market rates decline. Home is able to manage these swings to some extent by attempting to control the maturity or rate adjustments of its interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities over given periods of time. Homes gap is typically described as the difference between the amounts of such assets and liabilities that reprice within a period of time. In a declining interest rate environment, a negative gap, or a
situation where Homes interest-bearing liabilities subject to repricing exceed the level of interest-earning assets that will mature or reprice, will have a favorable impact on Homes net interest income. At December 31, 2004, Home had a
one-year sensitivity gap of negative 32.17%. Conversely, an increase in general market rates over a sustained period of time will tend to affect Homes net interest income adversely.



In order to minimize the potential effects of adverse material and prolonged increases or decreases in market interest rates on the
Companys operations, management has implemented an asset/liability program designed to stabilize the Companys interest rate gap. The program emphasizes the investment of excess cash in short or intermediate term interest-earning assets,
the solicitation of transaction deposit accounts which are less sensitive to changes in interest rates and can be repriced rapidly, and to a lesser extent, the origination of adjustable rate mortgage loans.



In addition to shortening the average repricing period of its assets, Home has sought to
lengthen the average maturity of its liabilities by adopting a tiered pricing program for its certificates of deposit, which provides higher rates of interest on its longer term certificates in order to encourage depositors to invest in certificates
with longer maturities.



Although Homes asset/liability management
program has generally helped to decrease the exposure of its earnings to interest rate increases, Home continues to have a negative gap position which will be adversely impacted during prolonged periods of rising interest rates and positively
affected during prolonged periods of interest rate declines. The Companys interest-earning assets less interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within five years as a percentage of total interest-earning assets was a negative 51.25%.



The following table sets forth the amount of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities outstanding at December 31, 2004, which are projected to reprice or mature in each of the future time periods shown. The computations were made without using assumptions for loan prepayments or deposit decline. Except as
stated below, the amounts of assets and liabilities shown that reprice or mature within a given period were determined in accordance with contractual terms of the assets or liabilities. In making the computations, all adjustable rate loans were
considered to be due at the end of the next upcoming adjustment period. Fixed rate loans are reflected at their contractual maturities with consideration given to scheduled payments. Marketable equity securities and savings accounts with no stated
maturities are subject to immediate repricing and availability and have been classified in the earliest category. FHLB of Atlanta stock must be maintained at certain regulatory levels and is classified in the more than ten category. The interest
rate sensitivity of Homes assets and liabilities illustrated in the following table would vary substantially if different assumptions were used or if actual experience differs from that indicated by such assumptions.

Critical Accounting Policy



The Companys most significant critical accounting policy is the
determination of its allowance for loan losses. A critical accounting policy is one that both is very important to the portrayal of the Companys financial condition and results, and requires managements most difficult, subjective or
complex judgments. What makes these judgments difficult, subjective and/or complex is the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. If the mix and amount of future write-offs differ significantly from those
assumptions used in making a determination, the allowance for loan losses and provision for loan losses on the income statement could be materially affected. For further discussion of the allowance for loan losses, see the section titled
Allowance for Loan Losses under Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements contained in this Annual Report.



Contractual Obligations, Commitments and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements



The Company has various financial instruments (outstanding commitments) with off-balance sheet risk that are issued in the normal course of business to meet the
financial needs of its customers. See Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements for more information regarding these commitments and contingent liabilities.



Recent Accounting Pronouncements



See Note 1 to the accompanying financial statements for a full description of recent accounting pronouncements including the respective expected dates of adoption and
effects on results of operations and financial condition.

SOUTH STREET FINANCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



Note 1. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies



Organization



South Street Financial Corp., a North Carolina corporation, (the Company) is a bank holding company registered with the Board of Governors
of the Federal Reserve System (the Federal Reserve) under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the BHCA) and the savings bank holding company laws of North Carolina. The Company serves as a holding company for Home Savings Bank of
Albemarle, Inc., SSB (Home Savings or the Bank). The Companys activities consist of managing its investment portfolio, holding the indebtedness outstanding from the Banks Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the ESOP) and owning the Bank. The
Companys principal sources of income are earnings on its investments and interest payments received from the ESOP with respect to the ESOP loan. In addition, the Company will receive any dividends that are declared and paid by the Bank on its
capital stock.



Nature of business



Home Savings is primarily engaged in the business of obtaining savings deposits and
originating single-family residential loans within its primary lending area of Stanly County, North Carolina. The Banks underwriting polices require such loans to be made with a loan-to-value ratio of at least 80% based upon appraised values
unless private mortgage insurance is obtained. These loans are secured by the underlying properties. The Banks primary regulators are the Federal Deposit Insurance Company (FDIC) and the Administrator of the North Carolina Savings Institutions
Division (the NC Administrator). The Banks deposits are insured by the Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF) of the FDIC.



During 1998, the Bank formed a wholly owned subsidiary, South Street Development Corporation (SSDC) with a $1.8 million cash investment. SSDC then invested $10,000 for a
50% interest in Park Ridge Associates, LLC (Park Ridge). The other 50% interest in Park Ridge was purchased by SSDC in 2000.



The following is a description of the significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements:



Principles of consolidation



The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of South Street Financial Corp.
and its wholly owned subsidiary, Home Savings Bank of Albemarle, Inc., SSB, the Banks wholly owned subsidiary, South Street Development Corporation, and SSDCs wholly owned subsidiary, Park Ridge Associates, LLC. All significant
intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.



Use of estimates



The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to
significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses.



Cash and cash equivalents



For the purpose of
presentation in the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents are defined as those amounts included in the balance sheet captions Non-interest-bearing deposits, Interest-bearing deposits, and Federal funds
sold.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



Note 1. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)



Investment securities



The Company has investments in debt and equity securities, which consist primarily of obligations of the U.S. Government and federal
agencies, mortgage-backed securities and common stock. Management classifies all securities as trading, available for sale, or held to maturity on the date of purchase and the appropriateness of such classification is reassessed at each statement of
financial condition date. Since the Company does not buy investment securities in anticipation of short-term fluctuations in market prices, none of the investment securities are classified as trading in accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 115. All securities have been classified as either available for sale or held to maturity. Declines in the fair value of individual securities classified as either available for sale or held to maturity
below their amortized cost that are determined to be other than temporary, result in write-downs of the individual securities to their fair value with the resulting write-downs included in current earnings as realized losses.



Securities available for sale



Securities classified as available for sale are those securities that the Company intends to
hold for an indefinite period of time but not necessarily to maturity. Any decision to sell a security classified as available for sale would be based on various factors, including significant movements in interest rates, changes in the maturity mix
of the Companys assets and liabilities, liquidity needs, regulatory capital considerations, and other similar factors. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value. Premiums and discounts are amortized using the interest method over
the securities contractual lives. Unrealized gains or losses are reported as increases or decreases in other comprehensive income, net of the related deferred tax effect. Realized gains or losses, determined on the basis of the cost of
specific securities sold, are included in income.



Securities held to
maturity



Securities classified as held to maturity are those
securities the Company has both the intent and ability to hold to maturity regardless of changes in market conditions, liquidity needs or changes in general economic conditions. These securities are carried at cost adjusted for amortization of
premium and accretion of discount, computed by the interest method over their contractual lives. Based on the Companys financial position and liquidity, management believes the Company has the ability to hold these securities to maturity.



Stock in Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta



As a requirement for membership, the Company invests in stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank
of Atlanta (FHLB). This investment is carried at cost. Due to the redemption provisions of the FHLB, the Company estimated that fair value equals cost and that this investment was not impaired.



Loans receivable



Loans receivable are stated at unpaid principal balances, less the allowance for loan losses, the undisbursed portion of construction loans,
and net deferred loan origination fees. The Companys loan portfolio consists principally of mortgage loans collateralized by first trust deeds on single family residences, other residential property, commercial property and land.

Note 1. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)



Allowance for loan losses



The allowance for loan losses is increased by charges to income and decreased by charge-offs (net of recoveries). The allowance is an amount
that management believes will be adequate to absorb probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Managements periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based on the Companys past loan loss experience, known and inherent
risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrowers ability to pay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, and current economic conditions. The loan portfolio is further analyzed by each loan type and
delinquency status to determine the risk category for each loan that is used in calculating the allowance for loan losses. Loans delinquent greater than 90 days are evaluated individually for loss exposure, while other loans are evaluated
aggregately by type. Allocated and unallocated portions are determined in the same manner. While management uses the best information to make evaluations, future adjustments may be necessary if economic or other conditions differ substantially from
the assumptions used. In addition, regulatory examiners may require the Company to recognize changes to the allowance for loan losses based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.



Impaired loans



A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the
scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting
scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls
on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrowers prior payment record, and the amount of the
shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis for commercial and construction loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loans effective interest
rate, the loans obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.



Interest income



The Company recognizes interest income on loans using the interest method over the contractual life of the loan. The Company continues to accrue interest on loans, including loans delinquent 90 days or more, when the
collection of interest is not in doubt. All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual or charged off is reversed against interest income. Interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments
are received. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are
brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.



Loan
origination fees and related costs



Loan fees and certain direct loan
origination costs are deferred, and the net fee or cost is recognized as an adjustment to interest income using the interest method over the contractual life of the loans, adjusted for actual prepayments.



Foreclosed real estate



Foreclosed real estate is initially recorded at estimated fair value at the date of
foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. Based on periodic evaluations by management, the carrying values are reduced where they exceed fair value minus estimated costs to sell. Costs relating to the development and improvement of the property
are capitalized, while holding costs of the property are charged to expense in the period incurred.

Note 1. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)



Real estate held for investment



Real estate held for investment is stated at the lower of cost or market value.



Premises and equipment



Company premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Estimated useful lives are up to 50 years for buildings, 5 to 10 years for furniture, fixtures and equipment and 3 years for computers and related
equipment. Repairs and maintenance costs are charged to operations as incurred and additions and improvements to premises and equipment are capitalized. Upon sale or retirement, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the
accounts and any gains or losses are reflected in current operations.



Bank owned life insurance



In 2003 the Company
purchased additional life insurance on certain of its officers and directors. The cash surrender value of these policies was approximately $7,245,000 and $6,698,000 at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The increase in the cash surrender
value is included in non-interest income in the consolidated statements of operations and amounted to $327,000 and $320,000 for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.



Stock compensation plans



SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, encourages all entities to adopt a fair value based method of accounting for employee stock compensation
plans, whereby compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. However, it also allows an entity to continue to measure compensation cost
for those plans using the intrinsic value based method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,whereby compensation cost is the excess, if any, of the quoted market
price of the stock at the grant date (or other measurement date) over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Stock options issued under the Companys stock option plans have no intrinsic value at the grant date and, under Opinion
No. 25, no compensation cost is recognized for them. The Company has elected to continue with the accounting methodology in Opinion No. 25. All granted options were fully vested by December 31, 2001.



Other benefit plans



The Company provides a noncontributory pension plan covering substantially all of the
Companys employees who are eligible as to age and length of service. The Companys funding policy is to make the maximum annual contribution that is deductible for income tax purposes.



The Company has deferred compensation, supplemental income and retirement plan agreements for
the benefit of certain officers of the Company and members of the Board of Directors. The plans are funded through life insurance policies held by the Company, and the liabilities are being accrued over the service periods of employees and
directors. The Company also has an ESOP which covers substantially all of its employees. Contributions to the plan are based upon the amortization requirements of the ESOPs debt to the Company, subject to compensation limitations, and are
expensed in accordance with the AICPAs Statement of Position 93-6, Employers Accounting for Employee Stock Ownership Plans.

Note 1. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)



Income taxes



Deferred taxes are provided on an asset and liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax
credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced
by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws
and rates on the date of enactment.



Earnings per share



SFAS No. 128 requires the presentation of earnings per share by all
entities that have common stock or potential common stock, such as options, warrants and convertible securities, outstanding that trade in a public market. Those entities that have only common stock outstanding are required to present basic earnings
per-share amounts. Basic per-share amounts are computed by dividing net income (the numerator) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator). All other entities are required to present basic and diluted per-share
amounts. Diluted per-share amounts assume the conversion, exercise or issuance of all potential common stock instruments unless the effect is to reduce the loss or increase the income per common share from continuing operations. For both
computations, the weighted average number of shares of common stock purchased by the Companys employee stock ownership and management recognition plans, and which have not been allocated to participant accounts, are not assumed to be
outstanding. The weighted average number of shares of common stock not allocated to participant accounts under the employee stock ownership plan was 105,679 and 164,021 in 2004 and 2003, respectively, while there were no unallocated shares under the
management recognition plan in 2004 or 2003. The Company had no dilutive potential common shares outstanding during 2004 and 2003. The weighted average number of shares outstanding at December 31, 2004 and 2003 was 2,965,289 and 2,912,708,
respectively.



Comprehensive income



The Company reports as comprehensive income all changes in stockholders equity during
the year from sources other than stockholders. Other comprehensive income refers to all components (revenues, expenses, gains, and losses) of comprehensive income that are excluded from net income. The Companys only component of other
comprehensive income is unrealized gains and losses on investment securities available for sale, net of tax.



Fair value of financial instruments



The estimated fair values required under SFAS No. 107, Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments, have been determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However,
considerable judgment is required to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented for the fair value of the Companys financial instruments are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize in
a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair market value amounts.



The fair value estimates presented are based on pertinent information available to management as of the dates presented. Although management
is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the estimated fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these consolidated financial statements since these dates and, therefore, current
estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented in these consolidated financial statements.

Reclassifications



Certain amounts in the 2003 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2004 presentation. The reclassifications had no
effect on net income or stockholders equity as previously reported.



Recent accounting pronouncements



On March 9, 2004, the
SEC Staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 105, Application of Accounting Principles to Loan Commitments (SAB 105). SAB 105 clarifies existing accounting practices relating to the valuation of issued loan commitments,
including interest rate lock commitments (IRLC), subject to SFAS No. 149 and Derivative Implementation Group Issue C13, Scope Exceptions: When a Loan Commitment is included in the Scope of Statement 133. Furthermore, SAB 105
disallows the inclusion of the values of a servicing component and other internally developed intangible assets in the initial and subsequent IRLC valuation. The provisions of SAB 105 were effective for loan commitments entered into after March 31,
2004. The adoption of SAB 105 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.



In March 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) released EITF Issue 03-01, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and its Application to Certain Investments. The Issue provides guidance
for determining whether an investment is other-than-temporarily impaired and requires certain disclosures with respect to these investments. The recognition and measurement guidance for other-than-temporary impairment has been delayed by the
issuance of FASB Staff Position EITF 03-1-1 on September 30, 2004. The adoption of Issue 03-1 did not result in any other-than-temporary impairment.



In December 2003, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) issued Statement of Position (SOP) 03-3, Accounting for Loans or Certain Debt
Securities Acquired in a Transfer. The SOP addresses accounting for differences between contractual cash flows and cash flows expected to be collected from an investors initial investment in loans or debt securities acquired in a transfer
if those differences relate to a deterioration of credit quality. The SOP also prohibits companies from carrying over or creating a valuation allowance in the initial accounting for loans acquired that meet the scope criteria of the SOP.
The SOP is effective for loans acquired in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2004. The adoption of this SOP is not expected to have a material impact on the Companys financial position or results of operations.



In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
(SFAS No. 123(R)). SFAS No. 123(R) establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. This Statement focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an
entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. SFAS No. 123(R) requires that the fair value of such equity instruments be recognized as an expense in the historical financial statements as services are performed. Prior to SFAS
No. 123(R), only certain pro forma disclosures of fair value were required. The provisions of this Statement are effective for the first interim reporting period that begins after December 15, 2005. Accordingly, we will adopt SFAS No. 123(R)
commencing with the quarter ending March 31, 2006. Since all options granted were fully vested on December 31, 2001 there would be no cost of employee stock option compensation in our consolidated financial statements for the three and six months
ended December 31, 2004 and 2003. Accordingly, the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) is not expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

The following tables show investments gross unrealized losses and fair value, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have
been in a continuous unrealized loss position, at December 31, 2004. This unrealized loss on investment securities is a result of volatility in the market during 2004 and relates to several mortgage backed securities as well as several federal
agencies. The unrealized loss on this investment security is considered by management to be temporary given the credit rating on the investment security and the short duration of the unrealized loss.

Note 5. Employee Pension Plan



The Company has a defined benefit plan covering substantially all employees. The benefits are based on years of
service and the employees expected compensation during five consecutive plan years within the last ten plan years that produce the highest average. Total pension expense was $235,000 and $195,000 for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003,
respectively, and is included in compensation and benefits in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.



The following tables set forth the Plans status as of and for the years ended:

Note 5. Employee Pension Plan (Continued)



For the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 the assumptions used to determine net periodic pension cost are as
follows:

|Rate of compensation increase          |  | 3.5                     | % |  | 5.0  | %



Determination of Expected
Long-Term Rate of Return



The expected long-term rate of return for
the Plans assets is based on the expected weighted return of the different asset categories as provide in the Plans Investment Policy. The investment policy provides for the sponsor to credit a fixed rate of interest on any certificates
of deposit with the Bank based on the interest rate (7.5%) used for determining the Banks funding as required under ERISA. Any equity investments are expected to return 7% to 10% over the long-term. Currently the investment policy provides
that 100% of the plans assets are to be invested in fixed income securities, primarily certificates of deposit; and therefore, the weighted long-term rate of return is expected to be 7.5%



The Companys pension plan weighted average asset allocations at December 31, 2004 and
2003.



|                          |  |                         |   |  |        |

|Cash and cash equivalents |  | 100.00                  | % |  | 100.00 | %



Investment Policy and Strategy



The investment policy, as established by the Pension Investment
Committee, is conservative and provides primarily for the generation of income with the conservation of capital. Although the policy does not currently provide for any investment in equities, the Pension Investment Committee does review periodically
the asset allocation, and may from time to time change the asset allocation between fixed income and equities.



The Bank expects to contribute to the Plan during 2004 approximately $ 169,000.

Note 10. Income Tax Matters



Under the Internal Revenue Code, the Company is allowed a special bad debt deduction related to additions to tax bad
debt reserves established for the purposes of absorbing losses. Through 1996, the provisions of the Code permitted the Company to deduct from taxable income an allowance for bad debts based on 8% of taxable income before such deduction or actual
loss experience. Legislation passed in 1996 eliminated the percentage of taxable income method as an option for computing bad debt deductions in all future years. The Company is still permitted to take deductions for bad debts, but is required to
compute such deductions using an experience method.



The Company must also
recapture over a six year period its tax bad debt reserves which accumulated from 1987 through 1996 and amount to approximately $1,023,000. The tax associated with the recaptured reserve is approximately $350,000. The recapture was scheduled to
begin with the Companys 1997 year but was delayed two years because the Company originated a required minimum level of mortgage loans over this period. Deferred income taxes have been previously established for the taxes associated with the
recaptured reserves, and the ultimate payment of the taxes will not result in a charge to earnings. The Company recaptured $128,491 and $171,325 of this reserve for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003.



Deferred taxes have been provided for certain increases in the Companys tax bad debt
reserves subsequent to 1987 which are in excess of recorded book loan loss allowances. At December 31, 2004, retained earnings contain certain historical additions to bad debt reserves for income tax purposes of approximately $2,870,000, the balance
at September 30, 1988, for which no deferred taxes have been provided because the Company does not intend to use these reserves for purposes other than to absorb loan losses. If amounts which qualified as bad debt deductions are used for purposes
other than to absorb losses or adjustments arising from the carryback of net operating losses, income taxes may be imposed at the then existing rates. The unrecorded deferred income tax liability on the above amount was approximately $1,125,000 as
of December 31, 2004.



The tax effects of temporary differences that gave rise
to significant portions of the net deferred tax asset (classified as other assets in the statements of financial condition) are as follows:



Deferred income taxes consist of the following:

The Company has no valuation allowance at December 31, 2004 or 2003 because management has determined that it is more
likely than not that the results of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income to realize the deferred tax assets.

Note 11. Stockholders Equity



On October 2, 1996, South Street Financial Corp. completed and closed its
stock offering. Gross proceeds from the sale of 4,496,500 shares amounted to $44,965,000, which includes $4,528,000 in proceeds from shares purchased by the ESOP, and reduced by conversion costs of $1,320,000. The Company transferred $19,558,000 of
the net proceeds to Home Savings for the purchase of all of the common stock of the Bank and retained the remaining net proceeds.



Concurrent with the Conversion, the Bank established a liquidation account in an amount equal to its net worth as reflected in its latest statement of financial condition
contained in the definitive prospectus used in connection with the Companys initial public offering. The liquidation account will be maintained for the benefit of eligible deposit account holders and supplemental eligible deposit account
holders who continue to maintain their deposit accounts in the Bank after the Conversion. Only in the event of a complete liquidation will eligible deposit account holders and supplemental eligible deposit account holders be entitled to receive a
liquidation distribution from the liquidation account in the amount of the then current adjusted sub-account balance for deposit accounts then held before any liquidation distribution may be made with respect to common stockholders. Dividends paid
by the Bank subsequent to the Conversion cannot be paid from this liquidation account.

Note 11. Stockholders Equity (Continued)



Subject to applicable law, the Board of Directors of the Company or Home Savings may each provide for the payment of
dividends. Future declarations of cash dividends, if any, by the Company may depend upon dividend payments by the Bank to the Company. Subject to regulations promulgated by the North Carolina Commissioner of Banks, the Bank will not be permitted to
pay dividends on its common stock if its stockholders equity would be reduced below the amount required for the liquidation account or its capital requirement.



During the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, the Bank paid $1,231,866 and $1,233,947, respectively, in dividends to the Company.



The Company paid cash dividends totaling $.40 per share during each of the
years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.



The Company and the Bank
are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory -and possibly additional discretionaryactions by regulators that,
if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Companys and the Banks financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet
specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative regulatory accounting practices. The Companys and the Banks capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk
weightings, and other factors. Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies.



The FDIC requires the Company and the Bank to have a minimum leverage ratio of Tier I Capital (principally consisting of retained earnings and any future common
stockholders equity, less any intangible assets) to all assets of at least 3%, provided that it receives the highest rating during the examination process. For institutions that receive less than the highest rating, the Tier I capital
requirement is 1% to 2% above the stated minimum. The FDIC also requires the Company and the Bank to have a ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of 8%, of which at least 4% must be in the form of Tier I capital. As of December 31, 2004,
the most recent notification from the FDIC categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the
Banks category. The Company and the Bank complied with all of the capital requirements at December 31, 2004 and 2003, as presented in the following table.

Note 12. Employee Stock Ownership
Plan



The Company has established an ESOP to benefit all qualified
employees. The ESOP purchased 359,720 shares of common stock in the open market subsequent to the Conversion with proceeds received from a loan from the Company. The ESOP purchased 168,448 additional shares with proceeds received from the return of
capital dividend paid by the Company in 1998.



The Companys note
receivable is to be repaid based upon 15 annual installments of principal and interest on September 30 of each year through September 30, 2011. Interest is based upon prime which will be adjusted and paid annually. The note may be prepaid without
penalty. The unallocated shares of stock held by the ESOP are pledged as collateral for the debt. The ESOP is funded by contributions made by the Company in amounts sufficient to retire the debt. At December 31, 2004, the outstanding balance of the
note receivable is $933,000, and is presented as a reduction of stockholders equity.



Shares are released as the debt is repaid and dividends from the common stock held by the ESOP are allocated among participants on the basis of compensation in the year of allocation. Benefits become 100% vested after
five years of credited service. Forfeitures of nonvested benefits will be reallocated among remaining participating employees in the same proportion as contributions.



Dividends on unallocated shares may be used by the ESOP to repay the debt to the Company and are not reported as dividends but as additional
compensation expense in the financial statements. Dividends on allocated or committed to be allocated shares may also be used to repay the debt to the Company and are reported as dividends in the financial statements. Special return of capital
dividends paid on 331,742 unallocated ESOP shares totaled $1,990,000 on September 30, 1998 and are being amortized as compensation expense in subsequent periods as ESOP shares are released to the participants. During the years ended December 31,
2004 and 2003, $387,000 and $402,000, respectively, was amortized as compensation expense.

Note 12. Employee Stock Ownership Plan (Continued)



Net expenses of $174,000 and $260,000 have been recorded during the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003,
respectively, in connection with the ESOP. The expenses represent the difference between the fair value of the shares which have been released or committed to be released to participants and the cost of these shares to the ESOP. The Company has
debited this amount to paid-in capital in accordance with the provisions of AICPA Statement of Position 93-6.



At December 31, 2004, 231,441 shares held by the ESOP have been released or committed to be released to the plans participants for purposes of computing earnings per share.



The ESOP has a put option which requires the Company to repurchase its common stock from
participants in the ESOP who are eligible to receive benefits under the terms of the plan and elect to receive cash in exchange for their common stock. The potential commitment for the put option at December 31, 2004, based on a fair value of the
ESOP shares released or committed to be released is $3,448,000. The fair value of the unallocated shares is $924,000 at December 31, 2004. This commitment will fluctuate based on the fair value of the shares.



Note 13. Off Balance-Sheet Risk



The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet credit risk in the
normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the
amount recognized in the balance sheet. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making
commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.



Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of conditions established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require
payment of a fee. Since some of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customers creditworthiness on a
case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company, upon extension of credit is based on managements credit evaluation of the borrower. Collateral obtained varies but may include real estate, stocks,
bonds, and certificates of deposit.



A summary of the contract amounts of the
Companys exposure to off-balance sheet credit risk as of December 31, 2004 is as follows:



|                                                                    |  |   |          
|------------------------------------------------------------------- |  | - | ---------
|Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk: |  |   |          
|Commitments to extend credit                                        |  | $ | 1,404,000
|Undisbursed lines of credit                                         |  |   | 9,937,000
|Undisbursed portion of construction loans                           |  |   | 3,608,000



The Company entered into an employment
agreement with one executive officer to provide for his continued employment. The agreement provides for an initial term of three years and can be extended an additional year annually.

Note 13. Off Balance-Sheet Risk (Continued)



In the normal course of its operations, the Company from time to time is party to various legal proceedings. Based
upon information currently available, and after consultation with its legal counsel, management believes that such legal proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Companys business, financial position or
results of operations.



Note 14. Fair Value of Financial Instruments



Financial instruments for which fair value disclosures are required
include cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits, federal funds sold, investment securities, loans, Federal Home Loan bank stock, bank owned life insurance, deposit accounts and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank. Fair value
estimates are made at a specific moment in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the
Companys entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no active market readily exists for a portion of the Companys financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss
experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be
determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.



The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:



Cash and Due from Banks, Interest-bearing Deposits and Federal Funds Sold



The carrying amounts for cash and due from banks,
interest-bearing deposits and federal funds sold approximate fair value because of the short maturities of those instruments.



Investment Securities



Fair values for investment securities held to maturity and available for sale are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices
are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments.



Loans



For
certain homogenous categories of loans, such as residential mortgages, fair value is estimated using the quoted market prices for securities backed by similar loans, adjusted for differences in loan characteristics. The fair value of other types of
loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.



Federal Home Loan Bank Stock



The carrying value of Federal Home Loan Bank stock approximates fair value
based on the redemption provisions of the Federal Home Loan Bank.

Note 14. Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)



Bank owned life insurance (BOLI)



The carrying amount for BOLI approximates its fair value.



Deposits



The fair value of demand deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of time deposits is estimated by discounting
expected future cash flows using the rates currently offered for instruments of similar remaining maturities.



Borrowings



The
fair value of advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank is based upon the discounted value of expected future cash flows when using current rates at which borrowings of similar maturity could be obtained.



Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk



With regard to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk discussed
in Note 13, it is not practicable to estimate the fair value of future financing commitments. The large majority of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit are at variable rates and/or have relatively short terms to maturity.
Therefore, the fair value for these financial instruments is considered to be immaterial.



The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Companys financial instruments, none of which are held for trading purposes, are as follows at December 31, 2004 and 2003:
