                                   (Unaudited)



NOTE 1.  NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         Southern Heritage Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") is a one-bank holding
         company whose business is conducted by its wholly-owned subsidiary,
         Southern Heritage Bank (the "Bank"). The Bank is a commercial bank
         located in Oakwood, Hall County, Georgia. The Company completed the
         sale of its common stock and obtained all necessary regulatory
         approvals to commence operations in December of 1998. The Company sold
         a total of $8,783,440 of common stock and capitalized the Bank with
         $8,000,000. The Bank commenced operations on January 4, 1999.

         The consolidated financial information included herein is unaudited;
         however, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely
         of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of
         management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim
         period.

         The results of operations for the six month period ended June 30, 1999
         is not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
         full year.

NOTE 2.  CURRENT ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS

         In April of 1998, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee issued
         Statement of Position ("SOP") 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start Up
         Activities". SOP 98-5 requires that costs of start-up activities and
         organization costs be expensed as incurred. SOP 98-5 became effective
         for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
         1998. During 1998, the Company wrote off $63,175 of unamortized
         organization costs upon adoption of SOP 98-5. In addition, Bank related
         organization costs totaling $35,620 were expensed immediately upon
         capitalization of the Bank.

         In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.
         133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" as
         was amended by SFAS 137 delaying the effective date. This statement is
         required to be adopted for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.
         However, the statement permits early adoption as of the beginning of
         any fiscal quarter after its issuance. The Company expects to adopt
         this statement effective January 1, 2001. SFAS No. 133 requires the
         Company to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in
         the balance sheet at fair value. For derivatives that are not
         designated as hedges, the gain or loss must be recognized in earnings
         in the period of change. For derivatives that are designated as hedges,
         changes in the fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm
         commitments must be recognized in earnings or recognized in other
         comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings,
         depending on the nature of the hedge. The ineffective portion of a
         derivative's change in fair value must be recognized in earnings
         immediately. Management has not yet determined what effect the adoption
         of SFAS No. 133 will have on the Company's earnings or financial
         position.

NOTE 3.  CONSTRUCTION IN PROCESS

         The Company is currently in process of constructing its banking
         facility. The estimated costs to construct and furnish the facility is
         approximately $2,000,000. The new facility is scheduled to be completed
         and occupied in the third quarter of 1999.

ITEM 2.
                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Forward-Looking Statements
- --------------------------

The Management's Discussion and Analysis which follows, contains forward-looking
statements in addition to historical information, including, but not limited to
statements regarding Management's beliefs, current expectations, estimates and
projections about the financial services industry, the economy, and about the
Company and the Bank in general. Such forward-looking statements are subject to
certain factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from
historical results or anticipated events, trends or results.

Financial Condition
- -------------------

As of June 30, 1999, the Company had total assets of $25.6 million. The Company
raised $8.8 million from the sale of its common stock and has received $17.8
million in deposits since the commencement of operations on January 4, 1999. The
Company has invested the proceeds from its stock sale and deposit growth in
Federal funds sold ($11.4 million), U. S. Treasury and Agency securities ($4.9
million), and loans ($7.7 million). The Company expects that loan and deposit
growth will be significant during its early years of operations. The expected
growth is not uncommon for de novo banks and is consistent with management's
long-term plan.

Liquidity
- ---------

As of June 30, 1999, the Bank's liquidity ratio was far in excess of its target
ratio, due to its investment in Federal funds sold and other short-term assets.
As loan growth continues to increase, the Bank's liquidity ratio will decrease
rapidly to levels more in line with its target range of 25% to 30%.

Capital
- -------

The minimum capital requirements for banks and bank holding companies require a
leverage capital to assets ratio of at least 4%, core capital to risk-weighted
assets ratio of at least 4%, and total capital to risk-weighted assets of at
least 8%. The Company and the Bank's capital ratios are far in excess of these
regulatory requirements. As asset growth continues, these ratios will decrease
rapidly to levels closer to, but still in excess of the regulatory minimum
requirements.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

The Bank commenced its operations on January 4, 1999. Prior to the commencement,
the Company was engaged in activities involving the formation of the Company,
selling its common stock and obtaining necessary regulatory approvals. The
Company incurred operating losses totaling $536,962 during its organizational
period, $56,344 in 1997, and $480,618 in 1998. The Company incurred total
organizational and stock issue costs of $150,530 of which $51,735 has been
recorded as a reduction of capital surplus. From commencement of operations to
the end of the second quarter, the Company has incurred additional operating
losses of $404,579. The Company expects that it will continue to incur operating
losses during its first full year of operations, until the increase in loans and
other interest-earning assets will generate the income necessary to cover
interest expense and other operating expenses.

As of June 30, 1999 the Company had not recognized any charge-offs or recoveries
in its loan portfolio. In addition, as of June 30, 1999 there were no past due
loans over 30 days, impaired loans, or nonaccrual loans. The allowance for loan
losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.56%. Management has provided for
potential losses based primarily on peer group information.

The Company has continued to grow interest-earning assets in the second quarter,
which increased by $7.5 million. Total loans grew by $3.7 million and securities
grew by $3.1 million, both of which were funded primarily by the $7.5 million
increase in deposits. The Company continues to maintain a significant amount of
Federal funds sold, $11.4 million, in order to fund new loan growth. As of June
30, 1999, the net interest margin was 4.21% on an annualized basis. The net
interest margin will gradually increase as loan volume increases.

The Company was in its organizational stage as of June 30, 1998. For the six
months ended June 30, 1998, the Company had incurred $193,000 of organizational
expenses and $81,000 of costs related to the construction of its main office.

Year 2000 Issues
- ----------------

Like many financial institutions, the Company relies on computers to conduct its
business and information systems processing. Industry experts are concerned that
on January 1, 2000, some computers may not be able to interpret the new year
properly, causing computer malfunctions. As described in more detail below, we
have developed and are executing a plan to insure that our computer and
telecommunication systems do not have these year 2000 problems and we do not
anticipate that the year 2000 issue will materially impact our business or
operations. We will rely on third party vendors for our computer and
telecommunication systems and other office equipment, and we will also rely on a
third party to process our data and account information. Because we are a de
novo bank, we have chosen only those vendors who are ready for the year 2000,
and therefore will not have to address problems in older systems. We will
continue to monitor this situation up to and through the century change.
Although we believe we have addressed the year 2000 issue, we cannot be entirely
sure that the year 2000 will not have any adverse effect on the Bank.

We have prepared a comprehensive year 2000 plan to monitor and insure the year
2000 compliance of our third party vendors of computer and telecommunication
systems, data processing services, and other office equipment. We are executing
this plan under the supervision of our chief financial officer and senior vice
president of operations, with oversight from our board of directors. Under the
plan, we will investigate the year 2000 readiness of each vendor, review year
2000 testing completed by each vendor, test our own systems if necessary, and
require comprehensive year 2000 statements from each vendor. Our investigation
of each vendor has consisted of requesting and reviewing its year 2000 test
results.

                                       9
<PAGE>

The Intercept Group, Inc. provides our mission critical computer software and
data processing services. The Intercept Group is a well-established company and
provides computer systems and data processing services to financial institutions
throughout the United States. The Intercept Group has completed testing of its
systems for year 2000 issues. Rather than test all of its customers
individually, the Intercept Group, like other vendors, performs tests of its
systems on selected financial institutions which run its systems under a variety
of conditions and configurations. The purpose of this selective testing was to
avoid the prohibitive cost and expense of testing every installed system, while
still providing a high level of comfort that its systems will perform under all
conditions. The Intercept Group system includes interfaces to other systems
provided by other vendors, such as our ATM hardware. The Intercept Group has
also tested these interfaces using the same approach.

Our year 2000 plan extends to our other less critical vendors as well, including
telephone systems, credit card processors, and suppliers of office equipment
such as copy and fax machines. Under our plan, we are reviewing the test
results, assurances and statements of all of these vendors. Based on our review
of our vendors' systems and year 2000 testing results to date, we do not believe
that any of them will have any significant year 2000 problems.

Our customers may also have year 2000 issues. Such issues could disrupt certain
businesses with high year 2000 risk and affect their deposit balances and their
ability to repay their loans. We intend to review each customer's exposure and
assess year 2000 readiness through year 2000 surveys. For those customers with
high credit risk and high potential exposure, we may require more substantial
proof of year 2000 compliance. Although these surveys will be helpful, it would
be very difficult for us to accurately assess the year 2000 readiness of any
particular borrower or depositor. Additionally, there may be a higher than usual
demand for liquidity immediately prior to the century change due to deposit
withdrawals by customers concerned about year 2000 issues. To address this
possible demand, we plan to have a higher percentage of our investment portfolio
in readily accessible funds during this time frame.
