VOTING
General
The securities which can be voted at the Annual Meeting consist of Capitol
City Bancshares' $6.00 par value common stock ("Capitol City Bancshares Stock"),
with each share entitling its owner to one vote on each matter submitted to the
stockholders. The record date for determining the holders of Capitol City
Bancshares, Inc. Stock who are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual
Meeting is May 1, 2000. On the record date, 532,088 shares of Capitol City
Bancshares Stock were outstanding and eligible to be voted.
Quorum and Vote Required
The presence, in person or by proxy, of a majority of the outstanding
shares of Capitol City Bancshares Stock is necessary to constitute a quorum at
the Annual Meeting. In determining whether a quorum exists at the Annual
Meeting for purposes of all matters to be voted on, all votes "for" or "against"
as well as all abstentions (including votes to withhold authority to vote) will
be counted.
<PAGE>
In voting for the proposal to elect seventeen directors (Proposal No. 1),
you may vote in favor of all nominees or withhold your votes as to all or as to
specific nominees. The vote required to approve Proposal No. 1 is governed by
Georgia law and is a plurality of the votes cast by the holders of shares
entitled to vote, provided a quorum is present. Votes withheld and broker non-
votes will not be counted and will have no effect.
Our directors and executive officers hold 278,980 shares of Capitol City
Bancshares Stock, or approximately 44.85% of all outstanding stock, and we
believe that all of those shares will be voted in favor of both proposals.

PROPOSAL NO. 2
APPROVAL OF THE CAPITAL CITY
BANCSHARES, INC STOCK OPTION PLAN
General
The Board of Directors has adopted the Capital City Bancshares, Inc. Stock
Option Plan effective July 13, 1999. We believe that the issuance of stock
options can promote the growth and profitability of the company by providing
additional incentives for participants to focus on the company's long-range
objectives. We also believe that stock options help us to attract and retain
highly qualified personnel and to link their interests directly to shareholder
interests. Therefore, we ask you to approve this plan at the meeting. A copy of
the plan is included in this proxy statement and attached as Appendix "A"
hereto.
The plan authorizes the grant to our employees and directors of stock
options for up to 159,600 shares of common stock from time to time during the
term of the plan, subject to adjustment upon changes in capitalization.
Under the plan, the company may grant either incentive stock options (which
qualify for certain favorable tax consequences, as described below) or
nonqualified stock options. The plan will be administered by the Board of
Directors. The Board will determine the employees and directors who will
receive options and the number of shares that will be covered by their options.
The Board will also determine the periods of time (not exceeding ten years from
the date of grant in the case of an incentive stock option) during which options
will be exercisable and will determine whether termination of an optionee's
employment under various circumstances would terminate options granted under the
plan to that person. If granted an option under the plan, the optionee will
receive an option agreement specifying the terms of the option, such as the
number of shares of common stock the optionee can purchase, the price per share,
when the 4 6 optionee can exercise the option, and when the option expires.
The option price per share is an amount to be determined by the Board of
Directors, but will not be less than 100% of the fair market value per share on
the date of grant (or one hundred ten percent (110%) of such amount if the
option is granted to an individual owning stock possessing more than ten percent
(10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the
Company). Generally, the option price will be payable in full upon exercise.
Payment of the option price of any stock option may be made in cash, by delivery
of shares of common stock (valued at their fair market value at the time of
exercise), or by a combination of cash and stock. The company will receive no
consideration upon granting of an option.
-5-
<PAGE>
Options generally may not be transferred except by will or by the laws of
descent and distribution, and during an optionee's lifetime may be exercised
only by the optionee (or by his or her guardian or legal representative, should
one be appointed). The grant of an option does not give the optionee any rights
of a shareholder until the optionee exercises the option.
The Board of Directors will have the right at any time to terminate or
amend the plan but no such action may terminate options already granted or
otherwise affect the rights of any optionee under any outstanding option without
the optionee's consent.
Federal Income Tax Consequences
There are no federal income tax consequences to the optionee or to the
company on the granting of options. The federal tax consequences upon exercise
will vary depending on whether the option is an incentive stock option or a
nonqualified stock option.
Incentive Stock Options. When an optionee exercises an incentive stock
option, the optionee will not at that time realize any income, and the company
will not be entitled to a deduction. However, the difference between the fair
market value of the shares on the exercise date and the exercise price will be a
preference item for purposes of the alternative minimum tax. The optionee will
recognize capital gain or loss at the time of disposition of the shares acquired
through the exercise of an incentive stock option if the shares have been held
for at least two years after the option was granted and one year after it was
exercised. The company will not be entitled to a tax deduction if the optionee
satisfies these holding period requirements. The net federal income tax effect
to the holder of the incentive stock options is to defer, until the acquired
shares are sold, taxation on any increase in the shares' value from the time of
grant of the option to the time of its exercise, and to tax such gain, at the
time of sale, at capital gain rates rather than at ordinary income rates.
If the holding period requirements are not met, then upon sale of the
shares the optionee generally recognizes as ordinary income the excess of the
fair market value of the shares at the date of exercise over the exercise price
stated in the option agreement. Any increase in the value of the shares
subsequent to exercise is long or short-term capital gain to the optionee
depending on the optionee's holding period for the shares. However, if the sale
is for a price less than the value of the shares on the date of exercise, the
optionee might recognize ordinary income only to the extent the sales price
exceeded the option price. In either case, the company is entitled to a
deduction to the extent of ordinary income recognized by the optionee.
Nonqualified Stock Options. Generally, when an optionee exercises a
nonqualified stock option, the optionee recognizes income in the amount of the
aggregate market price of the shares received upon exercise less the aggregate
amount paid for those shares, and the
-6-
<PAGE>
company may deduct as an expense the amount of income so recognized by the
optionee. The holding period of the acquired shares begins upon the exercise of
the option, and the optionee's basis in the shares is equal to the market price
of the acquired shares on the date of exercise.
Initial Option Grants
The Company granted the following stock options effective July 13, 1999:
. Incentive stock options covering 10,000 shares to Mr. Andrews,
President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company;
. Incentive stock options covering 80,000 shares to directors of the
Company as a group, each director receiving options covering 5,000
shares (not including options granted to Mr. Andrews).
Each of these option grants includes the following features:
. An exercise period of ten years;
. Restrictions on transferability;
. An exercise price of $10.00 per share, which the Board determined was
the fair market value on the date of grant; and
. Fully vested on date of grant.
Shareholder Approval Required
The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the votes entitled to
be cast at the meeting is required for approval of the plan. Abstentions and
broker non-votes will not be considered to be either affirmative or negative
votes. Because directors are entitled to receive options under the plan, the
directors of the company have a personal interest in seeing the plan approved.
The Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote "FOR" approval
of the Capital City Bancshares, Inc. Stock Option Plan.
DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE COMPANY
Information as of December 31, 1999 about each of the Directors and
Officers of the Company is set forth in the table beginning on page 3.
George G. Andrews and Kaneta R. Lott are the only executive officers of
Capitol City Bancshares and were previously reported as nominees for election as

MEETINGS AND COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Our Board of Directors conducts regular meetings, generally on a monthly
basis and also conducts some of its business through the committees described

exception of Robert A. Holmes and Elvin Mitchell, Sr., who attended 73% of the
meetings, George C. Miller, Jr., who attended 63%, and Cordy T. Vivian, who
attended 55% of the meetings.
The Board of Directors has established a number of committees to assist it
in the discharge of its duties. The executive committee makes and reviews
policies and decisions in connection with personnel, compensation, nominations
of directors and strategic matters. It also entertains shareholder nominees for
directors.
The audit committee recommends the engagement of the Bank's independent
certified auditors, serves as liaison with those independent auditors on behalf
of the Bank, and is responsible for reviewing the audit reports of the Bank's
independent auditors.
The loan committee exercises primary responsibility for the monitoring of
the Bank's lending functions and must approve any loan in excess of the lending
officer's designated lending limits.
The assets/liability committee manages the purchase, pricing and timing of
the Bank's assets and liabilities.

business on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and
collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with
other persons and do not involve more than a normal risk of collectibility or
present other unfavorable features.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There are no "material" pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine
litigation incidental to the business of the Company, to which the Company or
any of its subsidiaries is a party or of which any of their property is subject.
Material proceedings are defined as claims for damages where the amount
involved, exclusive of interest and cost, exceeds ten percent of the current
assets of the Company and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.
During the previous five years, no director or executive officer was the subject
of a legal proceeding (as defined below) that is material to an evaluation of
the ability or integrity of any director or executive officer. A "legal
proceeding" includes: (a) any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any
business of which such person was a general partner or executive prior to that
time; (b) any conviction in a criminal proceeding or subject to a pending
criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); (c)
any order, judgment, or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction, or any
Federal or State authority
-13-
<PAGE>
permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting
his involvement in any type of commodities business, securities or banking
activities; and (d) any finding by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil
action), the Securities and Exchange Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading
Commission of a violation of a federal or state securities or commodities law
(such finding having not been reversed, suspended or vacated).
COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(A) OF THE 1934 ACT
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and regulations of the
SEC require our executive officers and directors and persons who beneficially
own more than ten percent of any class of our equity securities, as well as
certain affiliates of such persons to file initial reports of ownership of any
equity securities of Capitol City Bancshares, Inc. and subsequent reports of
changes in ownership of such securities with the SEC. Such persons also are
required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a)
reports they file. Based solely upon a review of Forms 3 and 4 and amendments
thereto furnished to the Company under Rule 16a-3(d) during 1999 and Form 5 and
amendments thereto furnished to the Company during 1999, no person who, at any
time during 1999, was a director, officer or beneficial owner of more than 10%
of any class of equity securities of the Company failed to file on a timely
basis any reports required by Section 16(a) during the 1999 fiscal year or
previously.

acquisition by the Company of the assets of the employing corporation, or
the acquisition by the Company of fifty percent (50%) or more of the stock
of the employing corporation causing it to become a subsidiary. The terms
and conditions of the substitute awards so granted may vary from the terms

the provisions of the options in substitution for which they are granted.
ARTICLE X - CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE

merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization,
reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares,
exchange of shares, change in corporate structure, or the like, an
appropriate and proportionate adjustment shall be made in the number
and kinds of shares subject to the plan and in the number, kinds, and
per share exercise price of shares subject to unexercised Options or
portions thereof granted prior to any such change. Any such adjustment
in an outstanding Option, however, shall be made without a change in
the total price applicable to the unexercised portion of the Option
but with a corresponding adjustment in the price for each share of
Stock covered by the Option.
(b) Upon dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or upon a
reorganization, merger, or consolidation in which the Company is not
the surviving corporation, or upon the sale of substantially all of
the assets of the Company to another corporation, the Plan and the
Options issued thereunder shall terminate, unless provision is made in
connection with such transaction for the assumption of Options
theretofore granted or the substitution for such Options of new
options of the successor employer corporation or a parent or

Options shall be exercisable in full for at least thirty (30) days
prior to the termination date whether or not otherwise exercisable
during such period.
(c) In the event of a change in the Stock which is limited to a change in
the designation thereof to "capital stock" or other similar
designation, or in par value or no par value, without increase or
decrease in the number of issued shares, the shares resulting from any
such change shall be deemed to be Stock within the meaning of this
Plan.
(d) Adjustments under this Section shall be made by the Board, whose
determination as to what adjustment shall be made, and the extent
thereof, shall be conclusive. The Board shall have the discretion and
power in any such event to determine and to make effective provision
for the acceleration of time during which the Option may be exercised,
notwithstanding the provisions of the Option setting forth the date or
dates on which all or any part of it may be exercised. No fractional
shares of Stock shall be issued under the Plan on account of any
adjustment specified above.

11.1 IN GENERAL. If the Company shall be the surviving or resulting corporation
in any merger, sale of assets or sale of stock, consolidation, or corporate

shall pertain to and apply to the securities to which a holder of Stock

as otherwise permitted hereunder.
ARTICLE XIII - MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
13.1 NONTRANSFERABILITY. Except by the laws of descent and distribution, no
benefit provided hereunder shall be subject to alienation, assignment, or
transfer by a Participant (or by any person entitled to such benefit
pursuant to the terms of this Plan), nor shall it be subject to attachment
or other legal process of whatever nature, and any attempted alienation,

whatsoever and upon any such attempt, the benefit shall terminate and be of

shall be delivered only into the hands of the Participant entitled to
receive the same or into the hands of the Participant's authorized legal
representative.

paid by any federal, state, local, or employment taxes that it deems are

required to pay the Company an Amount required to be withheld with respect
to such Stock. At the request of a Participant, such sums as may be
required for the payment of any estimated or accrued income tax liability
may be withheld and paid over to the governmental entity entitled to
receive same.

discretion accelerate the time at which an Option granted hereunder may be
exercised.

13.6 GOVERNMENT AND OTHER REGULATIONS. The obligation of the Company to make
payment of Awards in Stock or otherwise shall be subject to all applicable

awarded hereunder

may in certain circumstances be exempt from registration under the
Securities Act of 1933, the Company may restrict its transfer in such
manner as it deems advisable to ensure such exempt status.
13.7 INDEMNIFICATION. Each person who is or at any time serves as a member of
the Board shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company against
and from (i) any loss, cost, liability, or expenses that may be imposed
upon or reasonably incurred by such person in connection with or
resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which such
person may be a party or in which such person may be involved by reason
of any action or failure to act under this Plan; and (ii) any and all
amounts paid by such person in satisfaction of judgment in any such
action, suit, or proceeding relating to the Plan. Each person covered by
this indemnification shall give the Company an opportunity, at its own
expense, to handle and defend the same before such person undertakes to
handle and defend the same on such person's own behalf. The foregoing
right to indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of
indemnification to which such persons may be entitled under the charter
or bylaws of the Company, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power
that the Company may have to indemnify such person or hold such person
harmless.

reliance upon any such report or information, or for any action taken,
including the furnishing of information, or failure to act, if in good
faith.

-11-
<PAGE>
13.13 USE OF PROCEEDS. Proceeds from the sale of Stock pursuant to Options
granted under the Plan shall constitute general funds of the Company.
13.14 NONEXCLUSIVITY OF PLAN. Neither the adoption of the Plan by the Board nor
the submission of the Plan to the stockholders of the Company for
approval shall be construed as crating any limitation on the power of the
Board to adopt such other incentive arrangements as it may deem
desirable, including, without limitation, the granting of stock options
otherwise than under the Plan, and such arrangements may be applicable
either generally or only in specific cases.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Plan to be executed by
its duly authorized officer and its seal to be affixed hereto, effective, except
as specified to the contrary herein, as of July 13, 1999.
