             Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 1 - Accounting Policies
The  consolidated   interim   financial   statements  of  SunTrust  Banks,  Inc.
("SunTrust" or "Company") are unaudited.  All significant  intercompany accounts
and transactions have been eliminated. These financial statements should be read
in  conjunction  with the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31,  1999.  Certain  reclassifications  have been made to prior year  amounts to
conform with the current year presentation.

Note 2 - Acquisitions
For the first six months of 2000, $31.8 million of  merger-related  charges were
recorded  compared to $31.4 million in 1999. These charges included $0.6 million
in accelerated  depreciation  and  amortization  based upon estimates of systems
integration  timetables,  $0.8 million in severance  and $30.4 million in system
integration costs. SunTrust expects to record additional  merger-related charges
of approximately $10.7 million through the remainder of year 2000.

Note 3 - Derivative Financial Instruments
SunTrust uses  derivatives  to hedge  interest  rate  exposures by modifying the
interest rate characteristics of related balance sheet instruments. The specific
criteria   required  for  derivatives   used  as  hedges  are  described  below.
Derivatives  that do not meet these  criteria  are carried at market  value with
changes in value recognized currently in earnings.

Derivatives  used as hedges must be effective  at reducing  the risk  associated
with  the  exposure  being  hedged  and  must be  designated  as a hedge  at the
inception of the derivative contract.  Derivatives used for hedging purposes may
include swaps, forwards,  futures and options. The interest component associated
with derivatives  used as hedges or to modify the interest rate  characteristics
of assets and  liabilities  is  recognized  over the life of the contract in net
interest income.  If a contract is cancelled prior to its termination  date, the
cumulative  change in the market  value of such  derivatives  is  recorded as an
adjustment  to the  carrying  value of the  underlying  asset or  liability  and
recognized  in net  interest  income  over the  expected  remaining  life of the
related  asset or liability.  In instances  where the  underlying  instrument is
sold, the fair value of the associated  derivative is recognized  immediately in
the component of earnings relating to the underlying instrument.

       Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) - continued

In June 1998,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board issued  Statement of
Financial  Accounting  Standards  ("SFAS") No. 133,  "Accounting  for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities." This statement  establishes  accounting and
reporting  standards for derivative  instruments,  including certain  derivative
instruments embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities.  It requires
that an entity  recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities on the
balance sheet and measures those instruments at fair value. This statement could
increase volatility in earnings and other comprehensive income. In June of 1999,
SFAS No. 133 was amended by SFAS No. 137,  which  delays the  effective  date of
implementation  until fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.  SunTrust will
adopt SFAS No. 133 effective  January 1, 2001. In June of 2000, SFAS No. 133 was
amended  by  SFAS  138,  which  addresses   issues  related  to   implementation
difficulties.  SunTrust  completed an in-depth analysis to determine the effects
of the implementation and currently it is not expected to have a material impact
on SunTrust's financial position or results of operations.

Note 4 - Guaranteed Preferred Beneficial Interests in Debentures
SunTrust has  established  special  purpose trusts,  which  collectively  issued
$1,050 million in trust preferred securities. The proceeds from these issuances,
together with the proceeds of the related  issuances of common securities of the
trusts, were invested in junior  subordinated  deferrable interest debentures of
SunTrust.  The sole assets of these special  purpose trusts are the  debentures.
These debentures rank junior to the senior and subordinated  debt of the issuing
company.  SunTrust  owns all of the common  securities  of the  special  purpose
trusts. The preferred securities issued by the trusts rank senior to the trusts'
common  securities.   The  Company's  obligations  under  the  debentures,   the
indentures,  the relevant trust agreements and the guarantees, in the aggregate,
constitute a full and unconditional  guarantee by SunTrust of the obligations of
the trusts under the trust preferred  securities and rank subordinate and junior
in right of payment  to all  liabilities  of the  Company.  The trust  preferred
securities may be called prior to maturity at the option of SunTrust.

Note 5 - Comprehensive Income
The Company's  comprehensive  income,  which includes  certain  transactions and
other economic events that bypass the income  statement,  consists of net income
and unrealized gains and losses on securities  available for sale, net of income
taxes.

Comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 is

Note 7 - Segment Reporting
Effective  January 1, 2000,  the  Company  significantly  modified  management's
internal  reporting  system  with  the  consolidation  of  its  individual  bank
charters.  In prior  periods,  the Company's  reportable  segments were based on
legal   entities  that  were  aligned  along   geographic   regions.   With  the
consolidation  of the bank charters,  SunTrust Bank is now one legal entity with
Florida,  Georgia,  Tennessee,  Alabama and Mid-Atlantic regions (which includes
Virginia,  Maryland and the District of Columbia). As a result of the changes to
the legal entity structure, as well as the changes made to management's internal
system used to evaluate  operating segment  performance,  prior periods have not
been reported  because it is not  practicable to restate prior period results to
conform to the current  reporting  methods or to present  current  year  results
based on prior period reportable segments.

The Company's  reportable  segments as of June 30, 2000 are determined  based on
management's internal reporting approach.  The reportable segments are comprised
of the four regions of Florida, Georgia,  Tennessee (which includes the branches
in Alabama) and  Mid-Atlantic,  in addition to Corporate and Investment  Banking
and  Parent/Other.  Each geographic  operating  segment provides a wide array of
banking services to consumer and commercial  customers and earns interest income
from loans made to customers.  In addition,  these geographic segments recognize
certain fees related to trust,  deposit,  lending and other services provided to
customers.  The Corporate and Investment  Banking segment  consists of corporate
banking for the large corporate and identified industry specialties,  as well as
SunTrust  Equitable  Securities and SunTrust Leasing.  The Parent/Other  segment
consists primarily of the Company's credit card bank and nonbank subsidiaries as
well as certain treasury and corporate expenses. The Treasury/Reconciling  Items
Segment  includes  the net  impact  of  transfer  pricing  on loan  and  deposit
balances,  the  cost of  external  debt,  gains  and  losses  on the  investment
portfolio,  income taxes and other amounts  necessary to reconcile the Company's
internal  management  accounting  practices  described below to the consolidated
financial statements.

Unlike financial  accounting,  there is no comprehensive  authoritative  body of
guidance for management  accounting  equivalent to generally accepted accounting
principles.  Therefore,  the  performance of the segments is not comparable with
SunTrust's  consolidated  results or with similar  information  presented by any
other  financial  institution.  In addition,  operating  segment  results may be
restated  in the  future  as  management's  structure,  information  needs,  and
reporting systems evolve.

 The  Company  uses a transfer  pricing  process to aid in  assessing  operating
segment performance.  This process involves matched maturity transfer pricing of
interest rates for assets and liabilities to determine a contribution to the net
interest  margin on a segment  basis.  Currently,  the Company does not allocate
corporate equity to the reportable segments. As a result, the difference between
the matched maturity  transfer pricing and the consolidated net interest margin,
as well as the net interest  margin benefit  provided from equity are treated as
reconciling items. In addition,  the Company uses a credit risk premium approach
to aid in assessing operating segment performance.  This approach recognizes the
cost of the  credit  losses  that  SunTrust  can  expect  over time on its loans
through a charge against earnings.  The premium is judgmental but based on rates
derived from the Company's loss migration history for various loan categories as
well as the internal credit ratings of individual loans in certain of those loan
categories.  The  difference  between  the credit  risk  premium  charged to the
segments and the Company's consolidated provision for loan losses is included as
a reconciling item within noninterest  expense. The segment results also include
certain  intercompany  transactions that were recorded at cost. All intercompany
transactions  have been eliminated to determine the  consolidated  balances.  No
transactions  with a single  customer  contributed  10% or more to the Company's
total revenue.

The following  tables  disclose  selected  financial  information for SunTrust's
reportable  business segments for the three months and six months ended June 30,
2000.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

SunTrust Banks,  Inc. is a financial  holding  company with its  headquarters in
Atlanta, Georgia. SunTrust's principal banking subsidiary, SunTrust Bank, offers
a full line of  financial  services for  consumers  and  businesses  through its
branches located primarily in Alabama,  Florida, Georgia,  Maryland,  Tennessee,
Virginia  and the  District of  Columbia.  In addition to  traditional  deposit,
credit  and trust and  investment  services  offered  by  SunTrust  Bank,  other
SunTrust  subsidiaries  provide mortgage  banking,  commercial and auto leasing,
credit-related insurance, asset management,  securities brokerage and investment
banking services.

SunTrust has 1,151 full-service  branches,  including supermarket branches,  and
continues to leverage technology to provide customers the convenience of banking
on the internet,  through 1,981  automated  teller  machines and via twenty-four
hour telebanking.

The following  analysis of the financial  performance of SunTrust for the second
quarter of 2000 should be read in  conjunction  with the  financial  statements,
notes and other information  contained in this document.  SunTrust has made, and
may  continue  to make,  various  forward-looking  statements  with  respect  to
financial and business matters. These forward-looking  statements are subject to
numerous  assumptions,  risks and  uncertainties,  all of which may change  over
time. The actual results that are achieved could differ  significantly  from the
forward-looking statements contained in this document.

The  results  of  operations  for the six  months  ended  June 30,  2000 are not
indicative  of the results  that may be attained for any other  period.  In this
discussion,  net interest  income and the net interest margin are presented on a
taxable-equivalent basis and the ratios are presented on an annualized basis.

EARNINGS ANALYSIS

SunTrust reported record operating earnings of $329.3 million and $657.6 million
for the second  quarter  and first six months of 2000,  an  increase of 6.7% and
9.5% compared with $308.5 million and $600.6 million in the same periods of 1999
(excluding  after-tax  merger-related  charges of $11.8 million,  $20.7 million,
$14.8 million and $25.2 million for the second  quarter and the first six months
of 2000 and 1999, respectively). Diluted earnings per share, adjusted for merger
charges, grew 14.0% to $1.09 and 16.0% to $2.16 from $0.96 and $1.86 in the same
periods last year.  Reported net income was $317.5 million, or $1.05 per diluted
share for the second quarter and $636.9 million,  or $2.09 per diluted share for
the first six months of 2000. Net income growth for the first six months of 2000
compared to 1999 was impacted by lower loan loss  provision  resulting  from the
fourth quarter credit card sale, lower expense levels, and a lower effective tax
rate.

Interest Rate Risk. The normal course of business  activity  exposes SunTrust to
interest rate risk.  Fluctuations in interest rates may result in changes in the
fair market value of the  Company's  financial  instruments,  cash flows and net
interest  income.  SunTrust's  asset/liability  management  process  manages the
Company's  interest  rate risk  position.  The  objective of this process is the
optimization  of the Company's  financial  position,  liquidity and net interest
income,  while  limiting the  volatility to net interest  income from changes in
interest rates.

SunTrust uses a simulation  modeling  process to measure  interest rate risk and
evaluate  potential  strategies.   These  simulations   incorporate  assumptions
regarding balance sheet growth and mix, pricing,  and the repricing and maturity
characteristics   of  the   existing  and   projected   balance   sheet.   Other
interest-rate-related  risks such as prepayment,  basis and option risk are also
considered.  Simulation  results  quantify  interest  rate  risk  under  various
interest  rate  scenarios.  Senior  management  regularly  reviews  the  overall
interest rate risk position and develops and implements strategies to manage the
risk.

Management  estimates  the  Company's  net  interest  income for the next twelve
months  would  decline  1.0% under a gradual  increase in interest  rates of 100
basis points,  versus the  projection  under stable rates.  Net interest  income
would  increase by less than 1.0% under a gradual  decrease in interest rates of
100 basis points, versus the projection under stable rates.

The projections of interest rate risk do not necessarily include certain actions
that  management  may  undertake to manage this risk in response to  anticipated
changes in interest rates.

Net Interest  Income/Margin.  SunTrust's  net interest  margin was 3.63% for the
first six  months of 2000,  a  decrease  of 29 basis  points  from the first six
months of 1999, primarily attributable to the rising rate environment,  the sale
of the Company's $1.5 billion higher yielding  consumer credit card portfolio in
the fourth  quarter of 1999 and  additional  purchases  under the SunTrust stock
repurchase  program.  Compared  to the  first six  months  of 1999,  the rate on
earning  assets  increased  37 basis  points to 7.63% in the first six months of
2000 and the rate on interest bearing  liabilities  increased 76 basis points to
4.80%  primarily due to the rising rates on purchased  liabilities and increased
reliance on purchased liabilities to fund growth.

Interest income that SunTrust was unable to recognize on nonperforming loans had
a  negative  impact of 2 and 1 basis  points on the net  interest  margin in the
first six months of 2000 and 1999, respectively.

Noninterest  Income.  Noninterest  income in the  second  quarter  and first six
months of 2000,  adjusted to exclude the effect of securities  gains and losses,
decreased $6.6 million,  or 1.5% and $5.1 million,  or 0.8%, from the comparable
periods last year. The decrease primarily relates to mortgage  production income
which decreased $62.0 million, or 61.3% for the first six months of 2000, due to
a drop in refinancing  activities  resulting  from the rising rate  environment.
Included in credit card and other fees is debit card interchange income of $14.6
million and $27.9  million  for second  quarter and the first six months of 2000
compared to $18.8 million and $33.7  million in the same periods of 1999.  Trust
income, SunTrust's largest source of noninterest income, increased $3.0 million,
or 1.2% for the first six months of 2000  compared to the same period last year.
Net new businesss in 2000 has not grown as much as the same period in 1999,  and
the market value of trust assets under  management  is down to $92.8  billion in
June 2000,  from $95.5 billion in June 1999. The Company expects that lower than
historical growth rates will continue throughout the year 2000.

Other income in the second quarter of 2000 includes $2.5 million in net gains on
the sale of mortgage and student  loans.  The third  quarter of 1999  includes a
$6.8  million  gain on the sale of student  loans.  The  second  quarter of 1999
includes an $8.5 million  gain on the sale of student  loans.  In addition,  the
Company incurred  securities  losses of $114.9 million during the fourth quarter
of 1999 primarily related to a portfolio repositioning program undertaken by the
Company.

Noninterest  Expense.  Noninterest  expense decreased $16.1 million, or 2.2% and
$35.5  million,  or 2.4% in the  second  quarter  and first  six  months of 2000
compared  to the same  periods  last year.  Personnel  expenses,  consisting  of
salaries, other compensation and employee benefits,  decreased $24.1 million, or
5.6% and $33.3 million, or 3.9% from the earlier periods. The reduction in other
compensation  of  $15.8  compared  to  the  same  quarter  last  year  is due to
adjustments of business line  incentive  plan expense which occurred  during the
second quarter.  The efficiency  ratio in the second quarter of 2000 improved to
58.87%,  a  decrease  from  58.95%  in the  second  quarter  of  1999.  In 1999,
merger-related expenses included additional severance,  accelerated depreciation
and system conversion costs. In the second quarter of 2000, these merger-related
expenses  primarily  related  to  accelerated   depreciation  and  miscellaneous
integration costs.  Merger-related expenses were $18.2 million and $13.6 million
for the second and first quarters of 2000 and $7.1 million,  $7.1  million,$17.6
million and $13.8 million for the fourth,  third,  second and first  quarters of
1999, respectively.

Provision  for Loan Losses.  The  SunTrust  Allowance  Committee  meets at least
quarterly  to assess  the  adequacy  of the  allowance,  analyze  provision  and
charge-off trends and affirm allowance  methodology.  As a result of this review
process,  the committee  deemed the allowance as of June 30, 2000 to be adequate
to cover losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The adequacy of the allowance is
evaluated based on historical loss rates,  specifically analyzed loans and other
internal and external factors that affect credit risk. These other factors, such
as the rising  interest rate  environment  of the last six quarters,  increasing
consumer debt levels,  recent  volatility in the  financial  markets,  and known
current  events that affect the Company's  primary market area, are key elements
in the  assessment of the adequacy of the  allowance  because of their impact on
borrowers' repayment capacity.

Charge-offs  in the second  quarter  of 2000 were lower than in the same  period
last year,  mainly due to the sale of the consumer  credit card  portfolio.  The
Company anticipates that higher levels of problem loans in the corporate market,
particularly in the industry  segments  referenced  below, will lead to a slight
increase  in net  charge-offs  during  the  rest of  2000.  Nonperforming  loans
increased  from  June 30,  1999,  primarily  due to  structural  changes  in the
healthcare  industry.  Other industry  sectors,  however,  are beginning to feel
pressure from rising interest rates and the softening economy,  leading SunTrust
to anticipate  further increases in nonperforming  loans during the remainder of
the year.  Besides  healthcare,  the Company is  concerned  about  weakening  in
textiles and agri-business, particularly poultry products.

SunTrust  lowered the  provision for loan losses in the first six months of 2000
to $50.0 million from $90.8 million in the same period last year. This reduction
in the provision is almost  entirely due to the sale of the  Company's  consumer
credit card portfolio in November  1999.  The credit card  portfolio  previously
accounted for up to $20 million in net  charge-offs  and provision  expense each
quarter. The ratio of net charge-offs to average loans dropped to .14% from .26%
one year ago. Total provision exceeded net charge-offs by $3.2 million.

At June 30, 2000,  SunTrust's  allowance for loan losses  totaled $874.5 million
which was 1.22% of period loans and 309.6% of total  nonperforming  loans.  Both
ratios  decreased  from the second  quarter of 1999.  As of June 30,  1999,  the
allowance  totaled $941.4 million,  or 1.50% of period loans and 392.9% of total
nonperforming  loans. These decreases are primarily  attributable to the sale of
the  consumer  credit  card  portfolio,  which had a  relatively  high  level of
allowance for loan losses and no nonperforming loans.

Nonperforming   Assets.   Nonperforming  assets  consist  of  nonaccrual  loans,
restructured  loans and other  real  estate  owned.  Nonperforming  assets  have
increased  10.9%, or $30.0 million since December 31, 1999 and increased  14.2%,
or $37.9 million since June 30, 1999.  Much of the increase  since June 30, 1999
occurred in healthcare  credits, an industry sector that continues to experience
structural change and intense market pressures.

Interest income on nonaccrual  loans, if recognized,  is recorded using the cash
basis method of  accounting.  During the first six months of 2000, an additional
$7.4 million of interest  income would have been recorded if all  nonaccrual and
restructured  loans  had been  accruing  interest  according  to their  original
contract terms. Interest income recognized on nonperforming loans using the cash
basis in the first six months of 2000 was $7.7 million.

Loans.  Total  loans at June 30,  2000 were $71.5  billion,  an increase of $8.5
billion or 13.6% from June 30,  1999.  The  Company  recorded  significant  loan
growth in commercial  loans and other  consumer  loans,  up 21.9% and 19.6% from
June 30, 1999,  respectively,  while  continuing to realize steady growth in its
residential  mortgage portfolio (up 11.3%), as customers shifted from fixed rate
to adjustable rate mortgages.  Of the $20.3 billion in residential  mortgages at
June 30,  2000,  $2.1 billion were home equity  loans,  which also  demonstrated
significant  growth (14.3%) in the last twelve  months.  The drop in credit card
loans from June 30, 1999 reflects te sale of the Company's $1.5 billion consumer
credit card portfolio during the fourth quarter of 1999.

Income Taxes.  The  provision for income taxes was $148.1  million and $321.5 in
the second  quarter and first six months of 2000 compared to $159.3  million and
$309.5 in the same periods last year.  This  represents a 34% effective tax rate
for the six months ended June 30, 2000, compared to 35% for the same period last
year.

Securities  available  for sale.  Securities  in the  investment  portfolio  are
classified as available-for-sale and are carried at market value with unrealized
gains  and  losses,  net  of any  tax  effect,  included  in  accumulated  other
comprehensive income and added to or deducted from realized shareholders' equity
to determine total shareholders'  equity. The investment  portfolio continues to
be  proactively  managed to optimize  yield over an entire  interest  rate cycle
while  providing  liquidity  and  managing  market  risk.  The  portfolio  yield
increased from an average of 6.31% in the second quarter of 1999 to 6.77% in the
second  quarter of 2000  primarily due to the  repositioning  of the  securities
portfolio  during the fourth  quarter of 1999 to take advantage of higher market
rates.

At June 30, 2000 the portfolio  size (measured at amortized  cost)  decreased by
$800 million from December 31, 2000. At June 30, 2000,  approximately  3% of the
portfolio  consisted of U.S.  Treasury  securities,  15% U.S.  government agency
securities,  47% mortgage-backed  securities,  8% asset-backed  securities,  20%
corporate  bonds,  3%  municipal  securities  and 4% other  securities.  Most of
SunTrust's holdings in mortgage-backed  securities are backed by U.S. government
or federal  agency  guarantees  limiting  the credit  risk  associated  with the
mortgage loans. At June 30, 2000, the carrying value of the securities portfolio
was $2.4 billion over amortized  cost,  consisting of a $2.8 billion  unrealized
gain on SunTrust's investment in common stock of The Coca-Cola Company and other
unrealized  net  losses.  The  market  value  of this  common  stock  investment
increased $507.0 million during the second quarter of 2000, which did not affect
the net income of SunTrust, but was included in comprehensive income.

Liquidity  Management.  Liquidity is managed to ensure there is sufficient  cash
flow to satisfy demand for credit, deposit withdrawals and attractive investment
opportunities.  A large,  stable core deposit base,  strong capital position and
excellent  credit  ratings are the solid  foundation  for  SunTrust's  liquidity
position. Liquidity is enhanced by an investment portfolio structured to provide
liquidity as needed.  It is also  strengthened  by ready access to a diversified
base of regional and national  wholesale  funding  sources  including  fed funds
purchased,   securities   sold  under   agreements  to  repurchase,   negotiable
certificates of deposit and offshore  deposits,  as well as a bank note program,
commercial  paper  issuance by the Parent  Company,  and Federal  Home Loan Bank
advances.

Total deposits consist of consumer deposits,  commercial  deposits and purchased
deposits.  The purchased deposits include foreign and brokered  deposits.  Total
deposits as of June 30, 2000 grew $8.3  billion,  or 13.8%,  from June 30, 1999.
Consumer  and  commercial  deposits  decreased  $443.9  million,  or 0.8%  while
purchased  deposits  grew $8.8  billion,  or  165.2%.  Consumer  and  commercial
deposits  represented  80.7% of average  deposits for the second quarter of 2000
compared to 92.8% for the same period of 1999.

Net borrowed funds, which primarily include short term funds purchased and sold,
purchased  deposits,  other short term borrowings and long term debt, were $32.8
billion for the second  quarter of 2000 compared with $26.2 billion for the same
period in 1999. The increase is primarily due to the Company's  increased use of
purchased  deposits and long term debt. Net borrowed funds were 37.2% of average
earning  assets for the second  quarter of 2000 as compared to 32.2% in the same
period a year ago.

On April 28, 2000, the Company issued $300 million of 7.75%  subordinated  notes
due May 1, 2010.  The Company  intends to use the net proceeds  from the sale of
the subordinated notes for general corporate purposes.






Derivatives.  SunTrust  enters into  various  derivative  contracts  to meet the
financial needs of its customers,  generate revenue through trading  activities,
and  to  manage  interest  rate  sensitivity  for  the  bank.  These  derivative
instruments include futures and forward contracts, interest rate swaps, options,
interest rate caps and floors, and swaptions.

Capital Resources.  Consistent with the objective of operating a sound financial
organization,   SunTrust   maintains   capital  ratios  well  above   regulatory
requirements.  The rate of  internal  capital  generation  has been  adequate to
support asset growth.  However,  the Company's capital ratios have experienced a
decline  over  the  last  five  quarters  primarily  resulting  from  additional
purchases  under the  SunTrust  stock  repurchase  program  and a decline in the
market value of SunTrust's  investment in common stock of The Coca-Cola Company.
Table 9 presents capital ratios for the five most recent quarters.

Regulatory  agencies  measure  capital  adequacy  within a framework  that makes
capital  requirements  sensitive  to the risk  profiles  of  individual  banking
companies.   The   guidelines   define  capital  as  either  Tier  1  (primarily
shareholders'  equity, as defined to include certain debt obligations) or Tier 2
(to include  certain other debt  obligations  and a portion of the allowance for
loan losses, and 45% of the unrealized gains on equity securities).  SunTrust is


                                       24
<PAGE>

subject  to a minimum  Tier 1 capital  ratio  (Tier 1 capital  to  risk-weighted
assets) of 4%, total capital ratio (Tier 1 plus Tier 2 to risk-weighted  assets)
of 8% and Tier 1 leverage ratio (Tier 1 to average  quarterly  assets) of 3%. To
be considered a "well  capitalized"  institution,  the Tier 1 capital ratio, the
total capital ratio,  and the Tier 1 leverage ratio must equal or exceed 6%, 10%
and 5%, respectively. SunTrust is committed to remaining well capitalized.


On August 10, 1999,  the Board of Directors  authorized the purchase of up to 15
million shares of SunTrust common stock. In 2000,  SunTrust purchased  1,159,200
shares of SunTrust  common stock to complete the August 10, 1999  authorization.
On February 8, 2000, the Board of Directors  authorized the purchase of up to 12
million  shares of SunTrust  common  stock.  As of August 2, 2000,  SunTrust has
