Organizers
De Novo Bank & Bank Holding Company
Jackson County,  GA

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     Bank  Capital  Group,  Inc.  ("BCG")  is  pleased  to  offer  the following
description of the terms our services to you in connection with the formation of
a de novo bank and bank holding company to be located in Jackson County, GA.  If
the  terms  of  our  engagement  meet  with your approval, please so indicate by
signing  the  enclosed copy of this letter and returning it to us for our files.
Our  engagement  will  cover  the  following:

                                    SECTION I
                       ASSISTANCE WITH REGULATORY PROCESS

     We  understand that you wish to file a Charter Application with the Georgia
Department  of  Banking and Finance (the "DBF") or, alternatively, the Office of
the  Comptroller  of the Currency (the "OCC") (collectively "the regulators") to
organize  a  new  commercial bank (the "Charter Application") and simultaneously
file  an application with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC")
for  deposit insurance.  We also understand that you wish to file an Application
to  become  a  Bank  Holding  Company with the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve  System  (the  "Fed").

     We  will  determine the specific regulatory steps needed to be taken before
submitting  your  application  and  advise  you about such matters as the filing
fees,  publication  of  notices, and brief you about the policies and procedures
generally  applied by the regulators and the FDIC to evaluate such applications.

     We will be responsible for preparing a market potential report for your new
bank  to  demonstrate that there is a need for the bank and that a new bank will
enhance the convenience of the community.  The analysis will include demographic
data  for  the  proposed  bank's  primary  service  area,  information  on  your
competition  and other relevant information and data which is required to be set
forth in the applications.  The market analysis will be contained in and part of
the  Charter  Application.

     We  will  prepare  a  business plan for the new bank including the specific
types  of  proposed  services  to be offered by your new bank and the pricing of
same.  The  business plan will also define the appropriate capital structure for
the  new  bank  and  the  supporting  rationale  for  the  structure.

<PAGE>
Page 2                       Jackson County De Novo           ________ ___, 200_

     We  will  provide  draft  policies  and  procedures to cover administrative
functions  of  the  new bank including, but not limited to, lending, investment,
security  and  audit  with  a  view toward assisting the new bank in passing the
field  examination  conducted  by  the  regulators,  and  the  FDIC  before  the
applications  will  be  approved.  It  will  be  the  responsibility  of  bank
management,  under  the  direction of the proposed board of directors, to revise
and  customize  the  policies  and  procedures  to  the  needs  of  your  bank.

     We  will  assist  in  preparing  up  to  ten  (10) Organizers' confidential
Interagency  Biographical  and Financial Report (the "IBF"), which must be filed
with  the  Charter  Application,  to ensure that such information complies as to
form  and completeness with customary regulators, FDIC and Fed review standards.
(There  shall  be  an  additional  charge for assistance with the preparation of
IBF's  above  ten.)  It  will  be  incumbent  upon  each  Organizer  to actively
participate  in  the  preparation  of  his  or  her  IBF.

     We  will  assist  in  the preparation of the FR Y-1.  We will assist in the
preparation of an Application to become a Bank Holding Company (collectively the
"BHC  App")  and  in preparing an appropriate pro forma balance sheet and income
statements,  as  required  by  the Fed.  We will assist you in responding to any
questions  or  requests  for additional information from the Fed concerning this
application.

     We  will  help you respond to any questions about the applications from the
regulators,  the  FDIC  and the Fed and work expeditiously to provide additional
information,  clarifications,  and  modifications,  as  necessary,  to  the
applications  so  that  the  applications  are deemed "technically complete" and
"accepted"  for  processing.

     We  will  work with your legal counsel in the preparation of organizational
documents  for the new bank including Articles of Association, by-laws and other
initial  documents required to be filed with the regulators. The legal fees will
be  your  direct  responsibility  and  are  not  part  of  our  compensation.

     In summary, we will assist you with the content, presentation and format of
the  charter  and  deposit insurance applications and biographical and financial
statements.  You  recognize  and  understand  that  the  regulators and the FDIC
expect  you  to  be completely familiar and in agreement with the content of the
charter  and  deposit insurance applications, and that Bank Resources cannot and
does  not guarantee that the regulators will approve the proposed bank's charter
or  that  the  FDIC  will  award  deposit  insurance.

                                   SECTION II
                      ASSISTANCE WITH CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

     BCG agrees to provide, on a best efforts basis, the following:

     We  will  provide  one  on-site representative to provide direct support to
management  and  Organizers  of the bank and bank holding company.  In addition,
senior  management  of BCG will be available on an as needed basis to attend and
provide  support  to  groups of investors at any meetings.  All expenses of this
representation  shall  be  borne  by  the  Company.

<PAGE>
Page 3                       Jackson County De Novo           ________ ___, 200_

     BCG  will  develop  and maintain a list of potential investors, review such
list  with  management  and  Organizers  on a regular basis and provide detailed
reporting  to  you.

     BCG  will  provide  at your expense and approval, marketing material, press
releases  and  collateral  material  including  but  not limited to creative and
production  assistance  as  well as media selection and placement.  The expenses
associated  with  these  materials shall be your responsibility.  Management and
Organizers  shall  have  final  approval  of  the  creative

     BCG will advise the Company as to strategy and tactics for negotiating with
potential  investors  and participate in presentations and negotiations relating
to  the  raising  of  capital.

     BCG  will process all retirement account share purchases, including but not
limited to the establishment of new accounts with appropriate custodians as well
as  transfer  of  accounts.  BCG  will  oversee  all  purchases  of shares until
completion.

     We will assist with the due diligence and closing of escrow.

                                   SECTION III
                               TERM OF ENGAGEMENT

     We  will  use  our  best  efforts  to accomplish all of the tasks set forth
above.  We  will  act  in  an  expeditious manner to accomplish each task, as to
organize the new bank, gain the Charter Application approval and met the capital
requirements  as  soon  as  possible.  BCG  will  continue  to  provide  the
aforementioned  services  until  such  time as the proposed bank obtains charter
approval  from either the regulators and deposit insurance from the FDIC and the
closing  of  escrow. You understand and agree, however, that if our services are
required  in  conjunction with any protests by competing financial institutions;
or,  as result of changes in the composition of the organizing group; or, due to
complications  with  any  proposed  organizer,  director  or  proposed executive
officer;  or, due to modifications in the bank's business plan after the Charter
Application  is  filed  with  the  regulators  and  FDIC  then such services are
considered  beyond  the  scope  of  this  engagement  letter. If such additional
services  are  needed,  we  will bill you based on the number of hours provided.

     BCG  will  use  and rely on information available from generally recognized
public  sources  in  performing  the  services  for  the  Company without having
independently  verifying such information and does not assume responsibility for
the  accuracy  or  completeness  of  such  information.

     BCG does not commit to provide any financing for the Company.

     You  may  elect to terminate this engagement at any time so long as you are
current  in  the  payment of all fees and expense reimbursements required in the
section entitled "Compensation" below and current in the payment of all fees and
expenses  (both  billed  and  incurred)  in  the  event that additional services
described  in  the  preceding  paragraph are provided. Any such termination will
become  effective  immediately  upon  receipt  by  us  of  a  written  notice of
termination. If we have completed the Charter Application and related materials,
then such termination will not alter the obligation of the organizers to pay all
professional  fees  contemplated in the following description of "Compensation".
You  understand  and  agree that all payments received prior to such termination
will  not  be  subject  to  refund. In the event of a termination, we will cease
providing  you  with  all  services.

     Upon  the  filing  of the Charter Application, you will be invoiced $500.00
per  Organizer/Director more than ten (10). You agree to pay $650.00 immediately
for  each  Organizer  or  Director  added after the Charter Application has been

                         Capital Consulting and Services

     BCG  shall  provide  the  services described in Section II until commencing
with the Company's prospectus being declared effective by the SEC and continuing

     The  Organizers  agree  to  pay  BCG  a marketing fee of $7,500.00 upon the

                               OTHER COMPENSATION

     Once  the  Bank  receives  final  charter approval from the regulators, you

Company's  common  stock  to  Stan  Taylor. Once the Bank receives final charter
approval  from  the regulators, you shall grant Options to purchase 5,000 shares
of  the  Holding  Company's common stock to Byron Richardson.  The Options shall
expire  ten  years from the date of award (or the opening of the Bank, whichever

<PAGE>
Page 5                       Jackson County De Novo           ________ ___, 200_

is  later)  and  the  price  each  share of stock purchased shall be $10.00 (the
"exercise  price").
     Notwithstanding  anything  to  the contrary as described above, the Options
shall  be awarded under substantially the same terms and conditions as any stock
warrants  or  stock  options which may be awarded to the Organizers of the Bank,
officers  or  the  Board  of Directors.  However the Options contemplated herein
shall  be transferable; subject to "corporate reorganizations" (which may result
in  a  proportionate  increase  or  decrease in the number of Options and/or the
exercise  price); and/or, exercisable in whole or in part.  In the event, you do
not  organize  a  bank  holding  company;  the  bank  shall  issue  the  Options
contemplated  herein.

     If, for any reason, the Options described above are not awarded at the same
time  as  options  and  warrants  are  granted  to the Organizers, Directors and
Executive  Officers  then  the Company or the Bank shall immediately pay to Stan
Taylor  and  to  Byron  Richardson  an amount equal to $1.25 per option for each
option  held,  respectively.

     In  addition to the professional fees described above, you will be invoiced
on  or  about the fifth business day of each month for all expenses incurred for
your  account.  We expect to incur such expenses as travel, demographic and peer

delivery)  and  local  courier  service,  duplication  and binding and any other
related  out  of  pocket  expenses.

     All  invoices  shall  be  due and payable upon receipt.  A two percent (2%)
administrative  fee  will  be  applied to all invoices.  You may take a discount
equal  to the amount of the administrative fee if we receive your payment within
ten  (10)  days  of  invoice  date.  We apply a late fee of one percent (1%) per
month  to  all  unpaid  invoices.

     Our  fees are not contingent on whether the Charter Application is granted.
Accordingly,  we  do  not  warrant or guarantee that the regulators will grant a
charter  on  your  behalf.

                                    SECTION V
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

     Because  we  recognize  that our engagement by you will necessarily involve
exposure  to confidential information with respect to your proposed bank and the
organizers  and  directors  thereof,  we  agree  to  hold  such  information  in
confidence  and  will  not  disclose  same  to  third parties without your prior
written  consent.  Likewise, the terms of our engagement by you and the proposed
bank  are  confidential.  No disclosure may be made to a third party without our
prior  written  consent,  except  by  reason of legal, accounting, or regulatory
requirements.

price  per share of $10.00.  Should the initial offering price be different than

increased  or  decreased  proportionately,  as  the  case  may  be.

     THIS ESCROW AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is entered into and effective as
of the _________ day of ____________ 2003, by and between Freedom Bancshares,
Inc., a Georgia corporation (the "Company"), and The Bankers Bank (the "Escrow
Agent").

                              W I T N E S S E T H:
                              - - - - - - - - - -

     WHEREAS,  the  Company  proposes  to  offer and sell (the "Offering") up to
1,200,000 shares of Common Stock, 1.00 par value per share (the "Shares"), to
investors at $10.00 per Share pursuant to a registered public offering; and

     WHEREAS,  the Company desires to establish an escrow for funds forwarded by
subscribers for Shares, and the Escrow Agent is willing to serve as Escrow Agent
upon the terms and conditions herein set forth.

     NOW,  THEREFORE,  in  consideration  of  the  premises  and  other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

     1.     DEPOSIT  WITH  ESCROW  AGENT.
            ----------------------------
1
          (a)  The Escrow Agent agrees that it will from time to time accept, in
its capacity as escrow agent, subscription funds for the Shares (the "Escrowed
Funds") in the form of checks received by the Company from subscribers. All
checks shall be made payable to the Escrow Agent. If any check does not clear
normal banking channels in due course, the Escrow Agent will promptly notify the
Company. Any check which does not clear normal banking channels and is returned
by the drawer's bank to Escrow Agent will be promptly turned over to the Company
along with all other subscription documents relating to such check. Any check
received that is made payable to a party other than the Escrow Agent shall be
returned to the Company for return to the proper party. The Company in its sole
and absolute discretion may reject any subscription for shares for any reason
and upon such rejection it shall notify and instruct the Escrow Agent in writing
to return the Escrowed Funds, with interest thereon if any, by check made
payable to the subscriber.

          (b)     Subscription  agreements  for the Shares shall be reviewed for
accuracy by the Company and, immediately thereafter, the Company shall deliver
to the Escrow Agent the following information: (i) the name and address of the
subscriber; (ii) the number of Shares subscribed for by such subscriber; (iii)
the subscription price paid by such subscriber; (iv) the subscriber's tax
identification number certified by such subscriber; and (v) a copy of the
subscription agreement.

     2.     INVESTMENT  OF ESCROWED FUNDS.  Upon collection of each check by the
            -----------------------------
Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent shall invest the funds in deposit accounts or
certificates of deposit which are fully insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance

<PAGE>
Corporation or another agency of the United States government, short-term
securities issued or fully guaranteed by the United States government, federal
funds, or such other investments as the Escrow Agent and the Company shall
agree. The Company shall provide the Escrow Agent with instructions from time to
time concerning in which of the specific investment instruments described above
the Escrowed Funds shall be invested, and the Escrow Agent shall adhere to such
instructions. Unless and until otherwise instructed by the Company, the Escrow
Agent shall by means of a "Sweep" or other automatic investment program invest
the Escrowed Funds in blocks of $1,000 in federal funds. Interest and other
earnings shall start accruing on such funds as soon as such funds would be
deemed to be available for access under applicable banking laws and pursuant to
the Escrow Agent's own banking policies.

     3.     DISTRIBUTION  OF  ESCROWED FUNDS.  The Escrow Agent shall distribute
            --------------------------------
the Escrowed Funds in the amounts, at the times, and upon the conditions
hereinafter set forth in this Agreement.

          (a)     If  at  any  time  on  or  prior to the expiration date of the
offering as described in the prospectus relating to the offering, (the "Closing
Date"), (i) the Escrow Agent has certified to the Company in writing that the
Escrow Agent has received at least $8,000,000 in Escrowed Funds, and (ii) the
Escrow Agent has received a certificate from the President or the Chair of the
Board of the Company that all other conditions to the release of funds as
described in the Company's Registration Statement filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission pertaining to the public offering have been met, then the
Escrow Agent shall deliver the Escrowed Funds to the Company to the extent such
Escrowed Funds are collected funds. If any portion of the Escrowed Funds are not
collected funds, then the Escrow Agent shall notify the Company of such fact and
shall distribute such funds to the Company only after such funds become
collected funds. For purposes of this Agreement, "collected funds" shall mean
all funds received by the Escrow Agent, which have cleared normal banking
channels.

          (b)     If the Escrowed Funds do not, on or prior to the Closing Date,
become deliverable to the Company based on failure to meet the conditions
described in Paragraph 3(a), or if the Company terminates the offering at any
time prior to the Closing Date and delivers written notice to the Escrow Agent
of such termination (the "Termination Notice"), the Escrow Agent shall return
the Escrowed Funds which are collected funds as directed in writing by the
Company to the respective subscribers in amounts equal to the subscription
amount theretofore paid by each of them. All uncleared checks representing
Escrowed Funds which are not collected funds as of the Closing Date shall be
collected by the Escrow Agent, and together with all related subscription
documents thereof shall be delivered to the Company by the Escrow Agent, unless
the Escrow Agent is otherwise specifically directed in writing by the Company.

     4.     DISTRIBUTION OF INTEREST.  Any interest earned on the Escrowed Funds
            ------------------------
shall be retained by the Company.

     5.     FEE OF ESCROW AGENT.   A $20.00 per check fee will be charged if the
            -------------------
escrow account must be refunded due to a failure to complete the subscription.

<PAGE>
All of these fees are payable upon the release of the Escrowed Funds, and the
Escrow Agent is hereby authorized to deduct such fees from the Escrowed Funds
prior to any release thereof pursuant to Section 3 hereof.

     6.     LIABILITY  OF  ESCROW  AGENT.
            ----------------------------

          (a)     In  performing  any of its duties under the Agreement, or upon
the claimed failure to perform its duties hereunder, the Escrow Agent shall not
be liable to anyone for any damages, losses or expenses which it may incur as a
result of the Escrow Agent so acting, or failing to act; provided, however, the
Escrow Agent shall be liable for damages arising out of its willful default or
misconduct or its gross negligence under this Agreement. Accordingly, the Escrow
Agent shall not incur any such liability with respect to (i) any action taken or
omitted to be taken in good faith upon advice of its counsel or counsel for the
Company which is given with respect to any questions relating to the duties and
responsibilities of the Escrow Agent hereunder; or (ii) any action taken or
omitted to be taken in reliance upon any document, including any written notice
or instructions provided for this Agreement, not only as to its due execution
and to the validity and effectiveness of its provisions but also as to the truth
and accuracy of any information contained therein, if the Escrow Agent shall in
good faith believe such document to be genuine, to have been signed or presented
by a proper person or persons, and to conform with the provisions of this
Agreement.

          (b)     The  Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Escrow
Agent against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses,
including, without limitation, reasonable costs of investigation and counsel
fees and disbursements which may be imposed by the Escrow Agent or incurred by
it in connection with its acceptance of this appointment as Escrow Agent
hereunder or the performance of its duties hereunder, including, without
limitation, any litigation arising from this Agreement or involving the subject
matter thereof; except, that if the Escrow Agent shall be found guilty of
willful misconduct or gross negligence under this Agreement, then, in that
event, the Escrow Agent shall bear all such losses, claims, damages and
expenses.

          (c)     If  a  dispute ensues between any of the parties hereto which,
in the opinion of the Escrow Agent, is sufficient to justify its doing so, the
Escrow Agent shall retain legal counsel of its choice as it reasonably may deem
necessary to advise it concerning its obligations hereunder and to represent it
in any litigation to which it may be a part by reason of this Agreement. The
Escrow Agent shall be entitled to tender into the registry or custody of any
court of competent jurisdiction all money or property in its hands under the
terms of this Agreement, and to file such legal proceedings as it deems
appropriate, and shall thereupon be discharged from all further duties under
this Agreement. Any such legal action may be brought in any such court as the
Escrow Agent shall determine to have jurisdiction thereof. In connection with
such dispute, the Company shall indemnify the Escrow Agent against its court
costs and reasonable attorney's fees incurred.

          (d)    The Escrow Agent may resign at any time upon giving thirty (30)
days written notice to the Company. If a successor escrow agent is not appointed

<PAGE>
by Company within thirty (30) days after notice of resignation, the Escrow Agent
may petition any court of competent jurisdiction to name a successor escrow
agent and the Escrow Agent herein shall be fully relieved of all liability under
this Agreement to any and all parties upon the transfer of the Escrowed Funds
and all related documentation thereto, including appropriate information to
assist the successor escrow agent with the reporting of earnings of the Escrowed
Funds to the appropriate state and federal agencies in accordance with the
applicable state and federal income tax laws, to the successor escrow agent
designated by the Company appointed by the court.

     7.     APPOINTMENT  OF  SUCCESSOR.  The  Company  may, upon the delivery of
            --------------------------
thirty (30) days written notice appointing a successor escrow agent to the
Escrow Agent, terminate the services of the Escrow Agent hereunder. In the event

in  accordance  with  the  laws  of  the  State  of  Georgia.

this Agreement.
