RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW
               Wachovia Corporation ("Wachovia") is a southeastern interstate
         bank holding company with dual headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia, and
         Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Principal banking subsidiaries are
         Wachovia Bank of Georgia, N.A., Wachovia Bank of North Carolina, N.A.,
         and Wachovia Bank of South Carolina, N.A. The First National Bank of
         Atlanta provides credit card services for Wachovia's affiliated banks.
               Economic growth overall appeared to have changed little during
         the 1995 second quarter from the first quarter. The seasonally
         adjusted unemployment rate for the nation averaged 5.7 percent versus
         5.5 percent in the preceding quarter. Within Wachovia's primary
         operating states of Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina,
         seasonally adjusted unemployment rates averaged 4.8 percent, 4.5
         percent and 4.8 percent, respectively, for the quarter.
               Wachovia's net income for the second period of 1995 was $162.909
         million or $.95 per fully diluted share versus $134.141 million or
         $.78 per fully diluted share a year earlier. Results included an
         aftertax gain of $47.385 million or $.27 per share from the sale of
         the corporation's $9 billion mortgage servicing portfolio, aftertax
         securities losses of $16.656 million or $.10 per share from the
         restructuring of maturities in the available-for-sale securities
         portfolio and aftertax expenses of $11.291 million or $.07 per share
         related to severance costs for consolidations, higher consulting fees
         for strategic initiatives and charitable contributions.
               Proceeds from the sale of the mortgage servicing portfolio will
         be invested in programs to enhance growth and productivity such as
         next generation branch automation, upgrades to customer information
         databases to improve sales effectiveness and service, and major
         refinements to financial systems for performance measurement. The
         corporation will continue to invest in a variety of corporate
         strategies underway to enhance shareholder value as outlined in
         general in the 1994 Annual Report and L. M. Baker, Jr.'s 1995 Annual
         Shareholders' Meeting remarks in April.
               For the first half, net income totaled $305.065 million or $1.77
         per fully diluted share compared with $258.940 million or $1.50 per
         fully diluted share in the same period of 1994. Annualized returns for
         the quarter were 19.48 percent on shareholders' equity and 1.59
         percent on assets. For the first six months, annualized returns were
         18.49 percent on equity and 1.53 percent on assets. The equity and
         assets used in computing these returns include unrealized gains or
         losses, net of tax, on securities available-for-sale. Excluding
         unrealized gains or losses on securities available-for-sale,
         annualized returns were 1.59 percent on assets and 19.53 percent on
         equity for the quarter and were 1.53 percent and 18.44 percent,
         respectively, for the first half.
               Expanded discussion of operating results and the corporation's
         financial condition is presented in the following narrative and
         tables. Interest income is stated on a taxable equivalent basis which
         is adjusted for the tax-favored status of earnings from certain loans
         and investments. References to changes in assets and liabilities
         represent daily average levels unless otherwise noted.

NET INTEREST INCOME
               Taxable equivalent net interest income increased $28.927 million
         or 8.2 percent for the 1995 second quarter compared with the same
         period a year earlier and was up $59.423 million or 8.6 percent for
         the first six months of the year. Gains in both periods reflected good
         growth in interest-earning assets moderated by pricing pressures as
         loan and deposit competition remained intense and the yield curve
         flattened. Compared with the first quarter of 1995, taxable equivalent
         net interest income rose $8.290 million or 2.2 percent. The net yield
         on interest-earning assets (net interest income as a percentage of
         average interest-earning assets) was lower by 15 basis points for the
         second quarter compared with a year earlier and decreased 8 basis
         points for the first half. The net yield was down 17 basis points from
         the first quarter. Pricing pressures are expected to persist
         throughout the remainder of the year.
               Taxable equivalent interest income for the second period and
         first six months of 1995 was up $179.409 million or 30.2 percent and
         $336.494 million or 29.2 percent, respectively. A higher average rate
         earned as well as expanded levels of average interest-earning assets
         accounted for the increases. Average interest-earning assets grew
         $3.926 billion or 12.1 percent for the three months and $3.399 billion
         or 10.6 percent year to date with the average rate earned rising 118
         basis points and 121 basis points, respectively. Compared with the
         first quarter, taxable equivalent interest income was up $58.664
         million or 8.2 percent with average interest-earning assets increasing
         $1.845 billion or 5.3 percent and the average rate earned higher by 14
         basis points.
               Loans continued to pace the growth in interest-earning assets,
         rising $3.234 billion or 13.5 percent for the second period and $3.222
         billion or 13.7 percent for the first half. Loans in the second
         quarter increased $984 million or 3.8 percent from the previous three
         months.
               Commercial loans, including related real estate categories, were
         higher by $2.399 billion or 17.9 percent for the quarter and $2.375
         billion or 18.2 percent year to date in comparison with the same 1994
         periods. Gains were led by regular commercial loans, which expanded
         $1.917 billion or 26.2 percent for the three months and $1.969 billion
         or 28.1 percent for the first half, and by commercial mortgages, which
         increased $331 million or 9.9 percent and $316 million or 9.6 percent,
         respectively. Foreign loans, lease financing and construction loans
         also rose in both periods.
               Based on regulatory definitions, commercial real estate totaled
         $4.348 billion at June 30, 1995, representing 15.4 percent of the
         corporation's loan portfolio. Commercial mortgages were $3.673 billion
         and construction loans were $675 million. Comparable amounts a year
         earlier were $3.834 billion in commercial real estate or 15.8 percent
         of total loans with $3.357 billion in commercial mortgages and $477
         million in construction loans. At March 31, 1995, commercial mortgages
         were $3.621 billion and construction loans were $514 million,
         representing a combined 15.5 percent of total loans.
               Retail loans, including residential mortgages, grew $835 million
         or 7.9 percent for the quarter and $847 million or 8.1 percent year to
         date. Gains were concentrated in credit cards and residential
         mortgages which rose $556 million or 16.2 percent and $319 million or

         quarter, $1.950 billion of available-for-sale securities were sold at
         a loss with the proceeds being reinvested in higher yielding

</TABLE>

               The market value of securities held-to-maturity at June 30, 1995
         was $4.652 billion, representing a $137 million appreciation over book
         value. Securities available-for-sale marked to fair market value under
         Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for
         Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" (FASB 115), had an
         unrealized gain of $72.656 million, pretax, and $44.556 million, net
         of tax, at June 30, 1995. Unrealized gains on average securities
         available-for-sale for the second quarter were $14.581 million,
         pretax, and $8.933 million, net of tax. For the first six months of
         1995, average securities available-for-sale had unrealized losses of
         $16.921 million, pretax, and $10.267 million, net of tax.
               Interest expense for the second quarter and first half rose
         $150.482 million or 62.1 percent and $277.071 million or 60.4 percent,
         respectively, from year-earlier periods and was up $50.374 million or
         14.7 percent from the first quarter. The increase resulted from both a
         higher average funding cost and greater levels of interest-bearing
         liabilities to support interest-earning asset growth. The average rate
         paid rose 150 basis points in the second period, 146 basis points year
         to date and 34 basis points from the preceeding three months, while
         average interest-bearing liabilities expanded $3.837 billion or 14.1
         percent for the second period, $3.374 billion or 12.5 percent for the
         first six months and $1.702 billion or 5.8 percent from the first
         quarter.
               Interest-bearing time deposits were up $1.424 billion or 8.4
         percent and $1.043 billion or 6.2 percent for the quarter and first
         half, respectively. Interest-bearing time deposits rose $1.034 billion
         or 6 percent from the first quarter, more than offsetting the $984
         million increase in average loans for the same period. Savings
         certificates for the second quarter grew $1.429 billion or 27 percent
         year over year and rose $998 million or 18.8 percent year to date. The
         increases largely reflected the results of a one-day certificates of
         deposit sale in March attracting over $1 billion, approximately 86
         percent of which was new money to the corporation. The sale also
         generated about 28,000 new account relationships out of approximately
         77,000 accounts participating in the sale. Gains in both periods also
         occurred in savings and money market savings, with growth primarily in
         the corporation's newly offered Premiere money market account, which
         requires a minimum balance of $10,000. Interest-bearing demand and
         large denomination certificates decreased for both the quarter and
         first half.
               Short-term borrowings were higher by $1.831 billion or 30.3
         percent for the quarter and $1.539 billion or 25.3 percent year to
         date. Compared with the first quarter, short-term borrowings were up
         $479 million or 6.5 percent. Year over year increases occurred in
         federal funds purchased and securities sold under repurchase
         agreements as well as in other short-term borrowings. Commercial paper
         borrowings declined. Other short-term borrowings include short-term
         bank notes with maturities from 30 days to one year. The notes are
         part of Wachovia Bank of North Carolina's bank note program,
         consisting of both short- and medium-term notes, with the former being
         issued beginning in the fourth quarter of 1994. At June 30, 1995,
         short-term notes outstanding totaled $1.907 billion with an average
         cost of 6.07 percent and an average maturity of 2.2 months. This
         compared with $1.187 billion in outstandings at March 31, 1995 with an
         average cost of 6.19 percent


                                                                               9

        and an average maturity of 2.8 months.
                Long-term debt increased $582 million or 13.6 percent for the
        second quarter, $792 million or 19.9 percent for the first half and
        $189 million or 4 percent from the preceeding three months. Growth
        primarily reflected gains in medium-term bank notes which totaled
        $3.979 billion at June 30, 1995 with an average cost of 5.54 percent
        and an average maturity of 1.5 years. Comparable amounts a year earlier
        were $3.661 billion in outstandings with an average cost of 4.77
        percent and an average maturity of 2.1 years. At March 31, 1995,
        medium-term bank notes were $3.809 billion with an average cost of 5.47
        percent and an average maturity of 1.59 years.
                Gross deposits for the second quarter averaged $23.721 billion,
        an increase of $1.424 billion or 6.4 percent from $22.297 billion a
        year earlier. For the first half, gross deposits averaged $23.191
        billion, higher by $1.011 billion or 4.6 percent from $22.180 billion
        in 1994. Collected deposits, net of float, averaged $21.985 billion for
        the quarter and $21.469 billion year to date, up $1.248 billion or 6
        percent and $858 million or 4.2 percent, respectively, from the same
        1994 periods.

ASSET AND LIABILITY MANAGEMENT AND INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY
                The corporation uses a number of tools to measure interest rate
        risk, including monitoring the difference or gap between rate sensitive
        assets and liabilities over various time periods, monitoring the change
        in present value of the asset and liability portfolios under various
        rate scenarios and simulating net interest income under the same rate
        scenarios. Management believes that rate risk is best measured by
        simulation modeling which calculates expected net interest income based
        on projected interest-earning assets, interest-bearing liabilities,
        off-balance sheet financial instruments and interest rates.
                The corporation monitors exposure to a gradual change in rates
        of 200 basis points up or down over a rolling 12-month period and an
        interest rate shock of an instantaneous change in rates of 200 basis
        points up or down over the same period. From time to time, the model
        horizon is expanded to a 24-month period. The corporation policy limit
        for the maximum negative impact on net interest income from a gradual
        change in interest rates of 2 percentage points over 12 months is 7.5
        percent. Management generally has maintained a risk position well
        within the policy guideline level. As of June 30, 1995, the model
        indicated the impact of a 2 percentage point gradual rise in rates over
        12 months would approximate a .1 percent increase in net interest
        income, while a 2 percentage point decline in rates over the same
        period would approximate a .9 percent decrease from an unchanged rate
        environment.
                In addition to on-balance sheet instruments such as investment
        securities and purchased funds, the corporation uses off-balance sheet
        derivative instruments to manage interest rate risk, liquidity and net
        interest income. Off-balance sheet instruments include interest rate
        swaps, futures and options with indices that directly correlate to
        on-balance sheet instruments. The corporation has used off-balance
        sheet financial instruments, principally interest rate swaps, over a
        number of years and believes their use on a sound basis enhances the
        effectiveness of asset and liability and interest rate sensitivity
        management.
                Off-balance sheet asset and liability derivative transactions
        are based on referenced or notional amounts. At june 30, 1995, the
        corporation had $1.395 billion notional amount of derivatives
        outstanding for asset and liability management purposes. Interest rate
        swaps were $1.380 billion or 99 percent of the total notional amount.
        Credit risk of off-balance sheet derivative financial instruments is
        equal to the fair value gain of the instrument if a counterparty fails
        to perform. The credit risk is normally a small percentage of the
        notional amount and fluctuates as interest rates move up or down. The
        corporation mitigates this risk by subjecting the transactions to the
        same rigorous approval and monitoring process as is used for on-balance
        sheet credit transactions, by dealing in the national market with
        highly rated counterparties, by executing all transactions under
        International Swaps and Derivatives Association Master Agreements and
        by using collateral instruments to reduce exposure. Collateral is
        delivered by either party when the fair value of a particular
        transaction or group of transactions with the same counterparty on a
        net basis exceeds an acceptable threshold of exposure. The threshold
        level is determined based on the strength of the individual
        Counterparty.
                The fair value of all asset and liability derivative positions
        for which the corporation was exposed to counterparties totaled $18
        million at June 30, 1995. The fair value of all asset and liability
        derivative positions for which counterparties were exposed to the
        corporation amounted to $15 million on the same date. Details

NONPERFORMING ASSETS
                Nonperforming assets at JUNE 30, 1995 were $76.640 million or
        .27 percent of loans and foreclosed property. The total decreased
        $47.889 million or 38.5 percent from a year earlier and was lower by
        $16.083 million or 17.3 percent from first quarter-close. The declines
        primarily reflected paydowns, the return of cash-basis assets to
        accrual status and sales of foreclosed property.
                The largest portion of nonperforming assets is real estate
        related. At June 30, 1995, real estate nonperforming assets were
        $53.558 million or .64 percent of real estate loans and foreclosed real
        estate compared with $85.444 million or 1.14 percent a year earlier and
        $64.120 million or .80 percent at March 31, 1995. Nonperforming real
        estate loans included in these amounts were $37.783 million at June 30,
        1995, $64.875 million a year earlier and $46.755 million at the end of
        the 1995 first quarter.
                Commercial real estate nonperforming assets were $29.837
        million or .69 percent of related loans and foreclosed property versus
        $63.503 million or 1.66 percent at June 30, 1994 and $40.030 million or
        .97 percent at March 31, 1995. These included commercial real estate
        nonperforming loans of $23.721 million at June 30, 1995, $51.295
        million a year earlier and $33.018 million at first quarter-close.

PROVISION AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
                The provision for loan losses was $28.652 million for the
        quarter and $50.440 million year to date, increasing $12.310 million or
        75.3 percent and $16.339 million or 47.9 percent from the same
        respective periods a year earlier. The provision was up $6.864 million
        or 31.5 percent from the first quarter of 1995.
                The provision reflects management's assessment of the adequacy
        of the allowance for loan losses to absorb potential write-offs in the
        loan portfolio. Several factors are considered in this assessment,
        including growth and composition of the loan portfolio, historical
        credit loss experience, current and anticipated economic conditions and
        changes in borrowers' financial positions.
                Net loan losses totaled $28.519 million or .42 percent
        annualized of average loans for the quarter and $47.939 million or .36
        percent year to date, up $12.645 million or 79.7 percent and $14.982
        million or 45.5 percent, respectively, from the same periods in 1994.
        Net loan losses were higher by $9.099 million or 46.9 percent from the
        first quarter. Excluding credit card loans, net charge-offs totaled
        $7.876 million or .14 percent of average loans for the quarter and
        $9.068 million or .08 percent for the first half. This compared with
        $1.826 million or .04 percent and $5.752 million or .06 percent for the
        same three- and six-month periods, respectively, a year earlier and
        with $1.192 million or .02 percent in the first quarter of 1995.       
                Credit card net charge-offs were $20.643 million or 2.07
        percent annualized of average credit card loans for the second period
        and $38.871 million or 1.96 percent year to date versus $14.048 million
        or 1.63 percent and $27.205 million or 1.65 percent in the same
        respective periods of 1994. Real estate loans had net charge-offs of
        $3.462 million for the quarter and $2.092 million for the first half
        versus net recoveries of $2.154 million and $3.947 million,
        respectively, in 1994. Net loan losses for other retail loans,
        consisting of direct and indirect lending, totaled $2.556 million for
        the quarter and $4.949 million for the first six months compared with
        $1.856 million and $3.819 million, respectively, a year earlier.
                At June 30, 1995, the allowance for loan losses totaled
        $408.633 million or 1.45 percent of period-end loans and 706 percent
        coverage of nonperforming loans. Comparable amounts were $405.942
        million, 1.67 percent and 403 percent, respectively, at second
        quarter-close 1994 and $408.500 million, 1.53 percent and 569 percent,
        respectively, at March 31, 1995.

NONINTEREST INCOME
                Total other operating revenue for the quarter rose $13.005
        million or 8.5 percent year over year and was higher by $25.229 million
        or 8.5 percent for the first half. Gains in both periods primarily
        reflected good growth in credit card income, trading account profits
        and other service charges and fees along with strengthened levels of
        deposit account service charges. Compared with the first quarter, total
        other operating revenue increased $9.211 million or 5.9 percent.  
                Credit card income for the quarter and first six months grew
        $3.747 million or 13.3 percent and $7.357 million or 13.8 percent,
        respectively. Higher levels of cardholder interchange income and net
        merchant discount income along with gains from other card income,
        including loan securitization, accounted for the increases. Cardholder
        purchase volume totaled $913 million for the quarter and $1.702 billion
        year to date versus $813 million and $1.475 billion, respectively, in
        1994.
                Trading account profits rose $1.777 million for the second
        period and $3.337 million for the first half, reflecting good gains in
        municipal securities and government and U.S. agency securities as well
        as narrowed losses on money market trading activities.
                Other service charges and fees increased $6.732 million or 51.2
        percent and $11.922 million or 44.5 percent for the three- and
        six-month periods, respectively. Growth was driven primarily by
        electronic banking, consisting of debit card and ATM fees, and by
        investment fee income, comprised of fees largely from mutual funds and
        brokers commissions. Electronic banking services represent
        approximately 40 percent of total other service charges and fees, while
        investment fee income represents approximately 30 percent.  Safe
        deposit and safekeeping fees, representing approximately 10 percent of
        the total, and other service charges and fees, comprising approximately
        20 percent, also were higher for both periods.
                Service charges on deposit accounts were up $1.806 million or
        3.6 percent for the quarter and $2.537 million or 2.6 percent year to
        date. Gains were due to mainly higher overdraft and insufficient funds
        charges as well as to increased savings account service charges.
        Commercial account analysis fees were modestly lower in both periods,
        although corporate service levels expanded.  The lower analysis fees
        reflected increased credit given for corporate deposit balances in a
        higher year-over-year interest rate environment.
                Trust service fees were largely unchanged for the quarter,
        rising $228 thousand or less than 1 percent. For the first six months,
        trust service fees decreased a modest $572 thousand or under 1 percent,
        largely reflecting a decline in custodial assets due to the loss of a
        major account in late 1994.
                Mortgage fee income decreased $1.168 million or 15.1 percent
        for the three months and $747 thousand or 4.7 percent for the six
        months. Reduced loan servicing fees, resulting from the April sale of
        the corporation's mortgage servicing portfolio, primarily accounted for
        the declines in both periods. Lower residential mortgage origination
        fees also contributed to the decreases with loan originations for the
        second quarter and first half totaling $302.799 million and $509.685
        million, respectively, versus $387.470 million and $850.126 million,
        respectively, a year earlier.
                Remaining combined categories of total other operating revenue
        were modestly lower for the second period but increased $1.395 million
        or 3.8 percent for the first six months. Insurance premiums and
        commissions remained essentially flat for the quarter but were higher
        by $633 thousand or 10.4 percent year to date. Bankers' acceptance and
        letter of credit fees were up modestly for the second period but
        decreased $674 thousand or 5.6 percent for the first half. Other income
        decreased $177 thousand or 1.6 percent for the quarter                

                                                                             17

         but was up $1.436 million or 7.7 percent for the first six months.
         Included in other income are revenues from Wachovia's customer
         portfolio of interest rate and currency derivatives (excluding foreign
         exchange forwards and options) which had a notional amount of $4.905
         billion and a fair value of $3.575 million at June 30, 1995 versus
         $2.439 billion and $4.744 million, respectively, a year earlier.
               Including a gain from the sale of the corporation's mortgage
         servicing portfolio and losses on sales of investment securities,
         total noninterest income was higher by $65.573 million or 42.7 percent
         for the quarter and $77.096 million or 25.8 percent year to date. The
         sale of the mortgage servicing portfolio in April resulted in a pretax
         gain of $79.025 million, while losses on investment securities sales
         totaled $26.236 million for the quarter and $26.365 million for the
         first half of 1995.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE
               Total noninterest expense for the second quarter and first six
         months was up $32.072 million or 11.7 percent and $45.054 million or
         8.3 percent, respectively, from year-earlier periods. Noninterest
         expense for the quarter included $18.100 million of expenses related
         to severance costs from continued consolidation efforts, higher
         consulting fees associated with strategic initiatives and charitable
         contributions. The corporation's overhead ratio measuring noninterest
         expense as a percentage of total adjusted revenues (taxable equivalent
         net interest income and total other operating revenue) was 56 percent
         for the second period and 54.7 percent year to date versus 54.3
         percent and 54.9 percent, respectively, in 1994. Noninterest expense
         was up $23.585 million or 8.3 percent from the first quarter of 1995.
               Total personnel expense for the second period increased $8.755
         million or 6.2 percent year over year and $12.704 million or 4.5 
         percent for the first half. Salaries expense rose $8.838 million or 7.7
         percent and

18
<PAGE>   21

         $11.812 million or 5.1 percent for the three and six months,
         respectively, primarily due to higher base salaries and severance
         expense resulting from a management structure review and the sale of
         the corporation's mortgage servicing portfolio. Employee benefits
         expense decreased slightly for the quarter but was up modestly year to
         date.
               Combined net occupancy and equipment expense was higher by
         $2.669 million or 5.8 percent for the second period and $5.182 million
         or 5.6 percent for the first six months. Increased installation,
         relocation and maintenance costs for enhanced technology projects
         helped push equipment expense up $1.925 million or 7.4 percent for the
         quarter and $3.676 million or 7 percent year to date. Net occupancy
         expense rose $744 thousand or 3.7 percent for the three months and
         $1.506 million or 3.8 percent for the first half.
               Remaining combined categories of noninterest expense were up
         $20.648 million or 23.7 percent for the quarter and $27.168 million or
         16 percent for the first six months. Professional services expense
         increased $3.764 million or 69.9 percent for the three months and
         $5.503 million or 58.9 percent year to date, largely reflecting
         consulting fees associated with corporate strategic initiatives.
         Outside data processing, programming and software expense rose $2.545
         million or 31.3 percent for the quarter and $3.957 million or 23.8
         percent for the first half, primarily due to increased volume of
         treasury cash services operations and to higher external programming
         costs associated with ongoing technology projects. The sale of the
         corporation's mortgage servicing portfolio in April helped lower

INCOME TAXES
               Applicable income taxes increased $22.245 million or 39.9
         percent for the quarter and $30.750 million or 28.9 percent year to
         date. Income taxes computed at the statutory rate are reduced
         primarily by the interest earned on state and municipal debt
         securities and industrial revenue obligations. Also, within certain
         limitations, one-half of the interest income on qualifying employee
         stock ownership plan loans is exempt from federal taxes. The interest
         earned on state and municipal debt instruments is exempt from federal
         taxes and, except for out-of-state issues, from Georgia and North
         Carolina taxes as well, and results in substantial interest savings
         for local governments and their constituents.

         higher by $386 million or 12.3 percent from $3.149 billion at June 30,
         1994 and up $130 million or 3.8 percent from the preceding

               Cash dividends paid totaled $56.302 million for the second
         quarter and $112.760 million year to date, higher by 9.5 percent and
         9.6 percent, respectively, from the same periods in 1994. Cash
         dividends paid represented a payout of 34.6 percent of net income for
         the quarter and 37 percent for the first half. The corporation's board
         of directors declared a third quarter dividend of $.36 per share at
         its meeting on July 28, 1995, payable September 1 to shareholders of
         record on August 7. The dividend represents an increase of 9.1 percent
         from the previous quarter and is higher by 20 percent from the third
         quarter of 1994.
               The corporation was authorized by the board of directors on July
         28, 1995 to repurchase up to 5 million shares of its common stock. The
         authorization replaced an earlier action on July 22, 1994 to repurchase
         the

         same number of shares. Repurchased shares will be used for various
         corporate purposes, including share issuance for the corporation's
         employee stock plans and dividend reinvestment plan. In the second
         quarter of 1995, the corporation repurchased 1,060,900 shares at an
         average price of $35.311 per share for a total cost of $37.462

         shareholders' equity less ineligible intangible assets) and Tier II
         (consisting of the allowable portion of the reserve for loan losses
         and certain long-term debt) and measure capital adequacy by applying
         both capital levels to a banking company's risk-adjusted assets and
         off-balance sheet items. Regulatory requirements presently specify
         that Tier I capital should exclude the market appreciation or
         depreciation of securities available-for-sale arising from valuation
         adjustments under FASB 115. In addition to these capital ratios,
         regulatory agencies have established a Tier I leverage ratio which
         measures Tier I capital to average assets less ineligible intangible
         assets.
               Regulatory guidelines require a minimum of total capital to
         risk-adjusted assets ratio of 8 percent with one-half consisting of
         tangible common shareholders' equity and a minimum Tier I leverage
         ratio of 3 percent. Banks which meet or exceed a Tier I ratio of 6
         percent, a total capital ratio of 10 percent and a Tier I leverage
         ratio of 5 percent are considered well capitalized by regulatory
         standards.
               At June 30, 1995, Wachovia's Tier I to risk-adjusted assets
         ratio was 9.31 percent with total capital 13.15 percent of
         risk-adjusted assets. The corporation's Tier I leverage ratio was 8.47
         percent.

or by the articles of incorporation (including, but not limited to, in the
event of a meeting to consider the adoption of a plan of merger or share
exchange, a sale of assets other than in the ordinary course of business or a
voluntary dissolution), the corporation shall be required to give notice only
to shareholders entitled to vote at the meeting.  If an annual or special
shareholders' meeting is adjourned to a different date, time or place, notice
thereof need not be given if the new date, time or place is announced at the
meeting before adjournment.  If a new record date for the adjourned meeting is
fixed pursuant to Section 6.5 hereof, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be
given to persons who are shareholders as of the new record date.  It shall be
the primary responsibility of the secretary to give the notice, but notice may
be given by or at the direction of the chief executive officer or other person
or persons calling the meeting.  If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be
effective when deposited in the United States mail with postage thereon
prepaid, correctly addressed to the shareholder's address shown in the
corporation's current record of shareholders.

                 Section 1.6.  Quorum.  A majority of the votes entitled to be
cast by a voting group on a matter, represented in person or by proxy at a
meeting of shareholders, shall constitute a quorum for that voting group for
any action on that matter, unless the articles of incorporation provide
otherwise or other quorum requirements are fixed by law, including by a court
of competent jurisdiction acting pursuant to Section 55-7-03 of the General
Statutes of North Carolina.  Once a share is represented for any purpose at a
meeting, it is deemed present for quorum purposes for the remainder of the
meeting and any adjournment thereof, unless a new record date is or must be set
for the adjournment.  Action may be taken by a voting group at any meeting at
which a quorum of that voting group is represented, regardless of whether
action is taken at that meeting by any other voting group.  In the absence of a
quorum at the opening of any meeting of shareholders, such meeting may be
adjourned from time to time, subject to Section 6.5, by a vote of the majority
of the shares voting on the motion to adjourn.

                 Section 1.7.  Shareholders' List.  After a record date is
fixed for a meeting, the secretary of the corporation shall prepare an
alphabetical list of the names of all its shareholders who are entitled to
notice of the shareholders' meeting.  Such list shall be arranged by voting
group (and within each voting group by class or series of shares) and shall
show the address of and number of shares held by each shareholder.  The
shareholders' list shall be made available for inspection by any shareholder
beginning two business days after notice of the meeting is given for which the
list was prepared and continuing through the meeting, at the corporation's
principal office or at such other place identified in the meeting notice in the
city where the meeting will be held.  The corporation shall make the
shareholders' list available at the meeting, and any shareholder or his agent
or attorney is entitled to inspect the list at any time during the meeting or
any adjournment.

                 Section 1.8.  Voting of Shares.  Except as otherwise provided
by the articles of incorporation or by law, each outstanding share of voting
capital stock of the corporation shall be entitled to one vote on each matter
submitted to a vote at a meeting of the shareholders.  Unless otherwise
provided in the articles of incorporation, cumulative voting for directors
shall not be allowed.  Action on a matter by a voting group for which a quorum
is present is approved if the votes cast within the voting group favoring the
action exceed the votes cast opposing the action, unless the vote of a greater
number is required by law or by the articles of incorporation.  Absent special
circumstances, the shares of the corporation are not entitled to vote if they
are owned, directly or indirectly, by a second corporation, domestic or
foreign, and the corporation owns, directly or indirectly, a majority of the
shares entitled to vote for directors of the second corporation, except that
this provision shall not limit the power of the corporation to vote shares held
by it in a fiduciary capacity.

                 Section 1.9.  Conduct of Meeting and Order of Business.  The
chairman of the board of directors shall act as chairman at all meetings of
shareholders and the secretary of the corporation or, in his absence, an
assistant secretary, shall act as secretary at all meetings of shareholders.
The chairman shall have the right and authority to determine and maintain the
rules, regulations and procedures for the proper conduct of the meeting,
including but not limited to restricting entry to the meeting after it has
commenced, maintaining order and the safety of those in attendance, opening and
closing the polls for voting, dismissing business not properly submitted, and
limiting time allowed for discussion of the business of the meeting.

                 Business to be conducted at meetings of shareholders shall be
limited to that properly submitted to the meeting either by or at the direction
of the board of directors or by any holder of voting securities of the
corporation who shall be entitled to vote at such meeting and who complies with
the





                                      -2-
<PAGE>   6

notice requirements of applicable law or as otherwise set forth in the articles
of incorporation or the bylaws of the corporation.  If the chairman of the
meeting shall determine that any business was not properly submitted, he shall
declare to the meeting that such business was not properly submitted and would
not be transacted at that meeting.

                               BOARD OF DIRECTORS

                 Section 2.1.  General Powers.  All corporate powers shall be
exercised by or under the authority of, and the business and affairs of the
corporation shall be managed under the direction of, the board of directors.

                 Section 2.2.  Number, Term, Qualification and Nomination.  The
number of directors constituting the board of directors shall be not less than
nine nor more than 25 as may be fixed by resolution duly adopted by the board
of directors prior to the annual meeting at which such directors are to be
elected or by the shareholders, but in the absence of such resolution, the
number of directors elected at the meeting shall constitute the number of
directors of the corporation until the next annual meeting of shareholders.

                 The board of directors shall be divided into three classes as
equal in number as may be feasible, with the term of office of one class
expiring each year.  The members of the initial board of directors shall be
divided into three classes as hereinafter provided, with directors of the first
class to hold office for a term expiring at the first annual meeting of
shareholders, directors of the second class to hold office for a term expiring
at the second annual meeting of shareholders and directors of the third class
to hold office for a term expiring at the third annual meeting of shareholders.
At each annual meeting of shareholders, successors to the directors whose terms
shall then expire shall be elected to hold office for terms expiring at the
third succeeding annual meeting.  In case of any vacancies, by reason of an
increase in the number of directors or otherwise, each additional director may
be elected by the board of directors to hold office until the end of the term
he is elected to fill and until his successor shall have been elected and
qualified in the class to which such director is assigned and for the term or
remainder of the term of such class.  Directors shall continue in office until
others are chosen and qualified in their stead.  When the number of directors
is changed, any newly created directorships or any decrease in directorships
shall be so assigned among the classes by a majority of the directors then in
office, though less than a quorum, as to make all classes as equal in number as
may be feasible.  No decrease in the number of directors shall shorten the term
of any incumbent director.

                 No person shall be elected nor shall continue to serve as a
director past the annual meeting if such person has, as of the date of the
annual meeting, reached the age of 70 years (67 years, effective January 1,
1997) or has retired from active participation in his principal business or
from the active practice of his principal profession; provided, however, that a
person who has served for five or more years as Chief Executive Officer of the
corporation may complete an unexpired term and may be re-elected a director for
up to three years after retirement from active service with the corporation.
Each director nominee must be the owner in his or her own right of shares of
stock of the corporation having a par value of not less than $1,000.  Other
qualifications which shall be considered in the





                                      -3-
<PAGE>   7

selection of director nominees are the extent of experience in business,
finance or management; the extent of knowledge in regional, national or
international business and finance; and the overall capacity to advise and
direct the corporation in meeting its responsibilities to shareholders,
customers, employees and the public.

                 Nominations for election as a director by the board of
directors in connection with any annual meeting or substitute annual meeting of
shareholders shall include the chairman and the president if such person is not
then a director or if his term as a director will expire at such meeting.
Nominations for election as a director by a holder of any outstanding class of
shares of the corporation entitled to vote for the election of directors shall
specify the class of directors to which each person is nominated, be made in
writing and be delivered or mailed to the chief executive officer of the
corporation not less than 14 days or more than 50 days prior to any meeting of
shareholders called for the election of directors; provided, if less than 21
days' notice of the meeting is given to shareholders, such notification of
nomination shall be mailed or delivered to the chief executive officer of the
corporation not later than the close of business on the seventh day following
the day on which the notice of meeting was mailed.  Such notification shall
contain the following information to the extent known by the notifying
shareholder:  (a) the name, age and address of each proposed nominee; (b) the
principal occupation of each proposed nominee; (c) the total number of shares
that will be voted for each proposed nominee; (d) the name and residence
address of the notifying shareholder; (e) the number of shares owned by the
notifying shareholder; and (f) a biographical profile of the individual with a
statement of his or her qualifications.  Nominations not made in accordance
herewith may be disregarded by the chairman of the meeting in his discretion,
and upon his instructions the voting inspectors or tabulators may disregard all
votes cast for each such nominee.

                 Section 2.3.  Removal.  Any director may be removed from
office as a director, but only for cause, by the affirmative vote at a meeting
called as provided herein for that purpose, of at least 66-2/3% in interest of
the holders of voting stock of the corporation issued and outstanding,
including a majority in interest of the holders of issued and outstanding
voting stock of the corporation held by persons other than any person who is an
"Interested Shareholder" as defined in paragraph (3) of Article X.D of the
corporation's articles of incorporation; provided, the notice of the
shareholders' meeting at which such action is to be taken states that a purpose
of the meeting is removal of the director and the number of votes cast to
remove the director exceeds the number of votes cast not to remove him.

                 Section 2.4.  Vacancies.  Except as otherwise provided in the
articles of incorporation or these bylaws, a vacancy occurring in the board of
directors, including, without limitation, a vacancy resulting from an increase
in the number of directors or from the failure by the shareholders to elect the
full authorized number of directors, may be filled by a majority of the
remaining directors or by the sole director remaining in office.  The
shareholders may elect a director at any time to fill a vacancy not filled by
the directors.  A director elected to fill a vacancy shall be elected for the
unexpired term of his predecessor in office.

                 Section 2.5.  Compensation.  The directors shall have
authority to vote themselves reasonable compensation for their services as
directors.  The directors may provide for their own indemnification and for the
indemnification of others, in accordance with these bylaws or as otherwise
authorized by law, and the directors may authorize the purchase of insurance in
connection therewith.  Any director may serve the corporation in any other
capacity and receive compensation therefor.

                 Section 2.6.  Directors Emeritus.  Upon retiring from the
board of directors, a director may be elected a director emeritus by the board
of directors.  A director emeritus shall not have the right to vote and shall
not be charged with the responsibilities or be subject to the liabilities of
directors.  A director emeritus may attend meetings of the board only upon
invitation of the directors.

                                 CAPITAL STOCK

                 Section 6.1.  Certificates.  Shares of the capital stock of
the corporation shall be represented by certificates.  The name and address of
the persons to whom shares of capital stock of the corporation are issued, with
the number of shares and date of issue, shall be entered on the stock transfer
records of the corporation.  Certificates for shares of the capital stock of
the corporation shall be in such form not inconsistent with the articles of
incorporation of the corporation as shall be approved by the board of
directors.  Each certificate shall be signed (either manually or by facsimile)
by the chief executive officer, the chairman or the president and by the
secretary or an assistant secretary.  Each certificate may be sealed with the
seal of the corporation or a facsimile thereof.

                 Section 6.2.  Transfer of Shares.  Transfer of shares shall be
made on the stock transfer records of the corporation, and transfers shall be
made only upon surrender of the certificate for the shares sought to be
transferred by the recordholder or by a duly authorized agent, transferee or
legal representative.  All certificates surrendered for transfer or reissue
shall be cancelled before new certificates for the shares shall be issued.

                 Section 6.3.  Transfer Agent and Registrar.  The board of
directors may appoint one or more transfer agents and one or more registrars of
transfers and may require all stock certificates to be signed or countersigned

rules and regulations as it deems expedient concerning the issue, transfer and
registration of shares of capital stock of the corporation.

                 Section 6.5.  Fixing Record Date.  For the purpose of
determining shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of
shareholders, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend, or in order to
make a determination of shareholders for any other purpose, the board of
directors or the chief executive officer may fix in advance a date as the
record date for the determination of shareholders.  The record date shall be
not more than 70 days before the meeting or action requiring a determination of
shareholders.  A determination of shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote
at a shareholders' meeting shall be effective for any adjournment of the
meeting unless the board of directors fixes a new record date, which it shall
do if the meeting is adjourned to a date more than 120 days after the date
fixed for the original meeting.  If no record date is fixed for the
determination of shareholders, the record date shall be the day the notice of
the meeting is mailed or the day the action requiring a determination of
shareholders is taken.

                 Section 6.6.  Lost Certificates.  The corporation must
authorize the issuance of a new certificate in place of a certificate claimed
to have been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, upon receipt of (a) an
affidavit from the person explaining the loss, destruction or wrongful taking,
and (b) a bond from the claimant in such sum and with such surety or other
security and in such form acceptable to the corporation as the corporation may
reasonably direct to indemnify the corporation against loss from any claim with
respect to the certificate claimed to have been lost, destroyed or wrongfully
taken.  The





                                      -10-

corporation may, in its discretion, waive the affidavit and bond and authorize
the issuance of a new certificate in place of a certificate claimed to have
been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken.


                                   ARTICLE 7

                   INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

                 Section 7.1.  Indemnification Provisions.  Any person who at
any time serves or has served as a director, officer or employee of the
corporation or of any wholly owned subsidiary or affiliate of the corporation,
or in such capacity at the request of the corporation for any other foreign or
domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, or
as a trustee or administrator under any employee benefit plan of the
corporation or of any wholly owned subsidiary thereof (a "Claimant"), shall
have the right to be indemnified and held harmless by the corporation to the
fullest extent from time to time permitted by law against all liabilities and
litigation expenses (as hereinafter defined) in the event a claim shall be made
or threatened against that person in, or that person is made or threatened to
be made a party to, any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, and
whether or not brought by or on behalf of the corporation, including all
appeals therefrom (a "proceeding"), seeking to hold the Claimant liable by
reason of the fact that he or she is or was serving in such capacity (whether
the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in such official capacity or in
any other capacity while serving in such official capacity); provided, such
indemnification shall not be effective with respect to (a) that portion of any
liabilities or litigation expenses with respect to which the Claimant is
entitled to receive payment under any insurance policy other than a directors'
and officers' insurance policy maintained by the Company or (b) any liabilities
or litigation expenses incurred on account of any of the Claimant's activities
which were at the time taken known or believed by the Claimant to be clearly in
conflict with the best interests of the corporation.

                 Section 7.2.  Definitions.  As used in this Article, (a)
"liabilities" shall include, without limitation, (1) payments in satisfaction
of any judgment, money decree, excise tax, fine or penalty for which the
Claimant had become liable in any proceeding and (2) payments in settlement of
any such proceeding subject, however, to Section 7.3; (b) "litigation expenses"
shall include, without limitation, (1) reasonable costs and expenses and
attorneys' fees and expenses actually and necessarily incurred by the Claimant
in connection with any proceeding and (2) reasonable costs and expenses and
attorneys' fees and expenses in connection with the enforcement of rights to
the indemnification granted hereby or by applicable law, if such enforcement is
successful in whole or in part; and (c) "disinterested directors" shall mean
directors who are not party to the proceeding in question.

                 Section 7.3.  Settlements.  The corporation shall not be
liable to indemnify the Claimant for any amounts paid in settlement of any
proceeding effected without the corporation's written consent.  The corporation
will not unreasonably withhold its consent to any proposed settlement.

                 Section 7.4.  Litigation Expense Advances.

                 (a)      Subject to the provisions of subsections (b) and (c)
below, any litigation expenses shall be advanced to any Claimant within 60 days
of receipt by the General Counsel or secretary of the corporation of a demand
therefor, together with an undertaking (in such form as the corporation may





                                      -11-
<PAGE>   15

prescribe from time to time) by or on behalf of the Claimant to repay to the
corporation such amount unless it is ultimately determined that the Claimant is
entitled to be indemnified by the corporation against such expenses.  The
Claimant shall also forward to the General Counsel or secretary a statement as
to any insurance in effect of the type described in Section 7.1, together with
any information which the Claimant wishes to have considered in determining
whether the standards set forth below have been met.  The General Counsel or
secretary shall promptly forward notice of the demand and undertaking
immediately to all directors of the corporation.

                 (b)      In the event a demand for an advance of litigation
expenses is received from a Claimant who is or was a director or the chief
executive of the corporation, the General Counsel or secretary shall call a
meeting of a special committee (the "Special Committee"), the membership of
which shall include only disinterested directors, and such Special Committee
shall determine within 30 days thereafter, based upon the facts and information
then available to them, whether the Claimant's activities were at the time
taken known or believed by the Claimant to be clearly in conflict with the best
interests of the corporation.  In making such determination, the Special
Committee shall consult with representatives of any insurance carrier having a
directors' and officers' liability policy in effect which covers the Claimant,
where such insurance has been purchased by the corporation.  No such advance
shall be made if a majority of the Special Committee determines that the
litigation expenses have been incurred on account of activities which at the
time taken by such Claimant were known or believed by him to be clearly in
conflict with the best interests of the corporation.  To the extent that any
Claimant shall be entitled to an advance under this Section, it shall be a
further condition to such advance that counsel selected by a Claimant be
approved by the corporation and to the extent deemed necessary by the
corporation the selection of such counsel shall also be approved by the carrier
of any directors' and officer's liability insurance then in effect.  The
corporation also reserves the right, in the instance of multiple Claimants, to
require, if appropriate, the consolidation of the defense of Claimants with
counsel chosen by the corporation.  No such advance of any particular items of
litigation expenses shall be made if a majority of the Special Committee
affirmatively determines that such particular items are unreasonable and/or
excessive.  In any such case, the Special Committee must determine the
unreasonable or excessive amount, and the Company shall withhold advances of
expenses only in the dollar amount so determined as excessive and/or
unreasonable.

                 (c)      In the discretion of the chief executive officer or
his designee, the Special Committee procedures set forth in Section 7.4(b) may
be deemed to apply to a demand for an advance of litigation expenses received
from a Claimant not referred to in the first sentence of Section 7.4(b)
(including but not limited to a Claimant who is or was an officer (other than
the chief executive officer) or employee of the corporation or a director,
officer or employee of a subsidiary of the corporation).  Alternatively, the
chief executive officer or his designee may cause the Special Committee
procedures set forth in subsection (b) to be waived and, in lieu thereof, the
chief executive officer or his designee may determine whether the applicable
standard of conduct required by Section 7.4(b) has been met, whether the amount
of such expenses is reasonable and the amount of such expenses, if any, that
are unreasonable or excessive and consequently are to be withheld.

                 Section 7.5.  Approval of Indemnification Payments.  Except as
may be determined in an action brought pursuant to Section 7.6 below,
indemnification payments by the corporation for liabilities and litigation
expenses (or a termination of the undertaking required under Section 7.4 above
with respect to advanced expenses) may be made only following a determination
that the activities of the Claimant (if the Claimant is or was a director of
the corporation) were not of the kind described in





                                      -12-
<PAGE>   16

Section 7.4(b), which determination shall be made (a) by a majority of the
disinterested directors (if there are at least two such directors), or (b) if
there are not two such directors, or if a majority of the disinterested
directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (c)
by a majority of the shareholders or (d) in accordance with any other
reasonable procedures prescribed by the board of directors prior to the
assertion of the claim for which indemnification is sought.  The reasonableness
of amounts of settlements and litigation expenses may be approved by a majority
of the disinterested members of the board of directors.  If the Claimant is an
officer or employee of the corporation, the determination required by this
paragraph may be made by the chief executive officer of the corporation or his
designee.

                 Section 7.6.  Suits by Claimant.  If a claim under Section 7.1
is not paid in full by the corporation within 60 days after a written claim has
been received by the corporation, or a demand for advances is not paid within
60 days of receipt by the corporation of such demand accompanied by an
undertaking as described in Section 7.4, the Claimant may at any time
thereafter bring suit against the corporation to recover the unpaid amount of
the claim or demand.  It shall be a defense to any such action that the
Claimant's liabilities or litigation expenses were incurred on account of
activities which were at the time taken known or believed by the Claimant to be
clearly in conflict with the best interests of the corporation, or were
unreasonable, but the burden of proving such defense shall be on the
corporation.  Neither the failure of the corporation (including its
disinterested directors, independent legal counsel, shareholders or the chief
executive officer or his designee, if applicable) to have made a determination
prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the Claimant
is proper in the circumstances, nor an actual determination by the corporation
(including its disinterested directors, independent legal counsel, shareholders
or the chief executive officer or his designee, if applicable) that the
Claimant had not met such applicable standard of conduct shall be a defense to
the action or create a presumption that Claimant has not met the applicable
standard of conduct.

                 Section 7.7.  Consideration; Personal Representatives and
Other Remedies.  Any Claimant who during such time as this Article or
corresponding provisions of predecessor bylaws is or has been in effect serves
or has served in any of the capacities described in Section 7.1 shall be deemed
to be doing so or to have done so in reliance upon, and as consideration for,
the right of indemnification provided herein or therein.  The right of
indemnification provided herein or therein shall inure to the benefit of the
legal representatives of any Claimant hereunder, and the right shall not be
exclusive of any other rights to which the Claimant or legal representative may
be entitled apart from this Article.

                 Section 7.8.  Scope of Indemnification Rights.  The rights
granted herein shall not be limited by the provisions of Section 55-8-51 of the
General Statutes of North Carolina or any successor statute.

                                   ARTICLE 8

                               GENERAL PROVISIONS

                 Section 8.1.  Dividends and other Distributions.  The board of
directors may from time to time declare and the corporation may pay dividends
or make other distributions with respect to its outstanding shares in the
manner and upon the terms and conditions provided by law.  If the board of
directors does not fix the record date for determining shareholders entitled to
a distribution, the record date shall be the date the board of directors
authorizes the distribution (other than a distribution





                                      -13-
<PAGE>   17

involving a purchase, redemption or other acquisition of the corporation's
shares, for which no record date is required to be fixed).

                 Section 8.2.  Seal.  The seal of the corporation shall be any
form approved from time to time or at any time by the board of directors.

                 Section 8.3.  Waiver of Notice.  Whenever notice is required
to be given to a shareholder, director or other person under the provisions of
these bylaws, the articles of incorporation or applicable law, a waiver in
writing signed by the person or persons entitled to the notice, whether before
or after the date and time stated in the notice, and delivered to the
corporation shall be equivalent to giving the notice.

                 Section 8.4.  Checks.  All checks, drafts or orders for the
payment of money shall be signed by the officer or officers or other
individuals that the board of directors or chief executive officer may from
time to time authorize.

                 Section 8.5.  Fiscal Year.  The fiscal year of the corporation
shall be the calendar year or such other period fixed by the board of
directors.

                 Section 8.6.  Amendments.  Unless otherwise provided in the
articles of incorporation or a bylaw adopted by the shareholders or by law,
these bylaws may be amended or repealed by the board of directors, except that
a bylaw adopted, amended or repealed by the shareholders may not be readopted,
amended or repealed by the board of directors if neither the articles of
incorporation nor a bylaw adopted by the shareholders authorizes the board of
directors to adopt, amend or repeal that particular bylaw or the bylaws
generally.  These bylaws may be amended or repealed by the shareholders even
though the bylaws may also be amended or repealed by the board of directors.  A
bylaw that fixes a greater quorum or voting requirement for the board of
directors may be amended or repealed (a) if originally adopted by the
shareholders, only by the shareholders, unless such bylaw as originally adopted
by the shareholders provides that such bylaw may be amended or repealed by the
board of directors or (b) if originally adopted by the board of directors,
either by the shareholders or by the board of directors.  A bylaw that fixes a
greater quorum or voting requirement may not be adopted by the board of
directors by a vote less than a majority of the directors then in office and
may not itself be amended by a quorum or vote of the directors less than the
quorum or vote prescribed in such bylaw or prescribed by the shareholders.

                 Section 8.7.  Applicability of Antitakeover Statutes.  The
provisions of Article 9 of the North Carolina Business Corporation Act,
entitled "Shareholder Protection Act," shall not be applicable to the
corporation.

                         EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT AGREEMENT

                 THIS EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT AGREEMENT, made and entered into as
of the _____ day of ______________, 199___, by and between Wachovia Corporation
(the "Corporation"), a North Carolina corporation, and _____________________ 
(the "Executive"), a senior management employee of the Corporation;

                                R E C I T A L S

                 The Executive is a senior management employee of the
Corporation, and as such has rendered and is expected to continue to render
valuable services in behalf of the Corporation.  The Compensation, Nominating
and Organization Committee (the "Committee") of the Corporation desires for the
Corporation to provide the Executive with supplemental retirement benefits
partially in recognition of such services.  In addition, the Committee has
determined that providing such benefits will make the Corporation's benefits
package more competitive with packages offered by many other employers and will
facilitate management succession planning for the Corporation.

  NOW, THEREFORE, the Corporation and the Executive hereby mutually agree as
follows:

Section 1.       Definitions.  When used herein, the words and phrases below
shall have the meanings set forth, unless a different meaning is clearly
required by the context.  Terms used but not defined herein, and which are
defined in the Retirement Plan, shall have the meaning assigned to them in the
Retirement Plan.  Masculine pronouns include feminine pronouns wherever used
and vice versa.

                 1.1      "Board of Directors" means the Board of Directors of 
the Corporation.

                 1.2      "Code" means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as it
may be amended from time to time.

                 1.3      "Effective Date" means ______________________.

                 1.4      "Final Average Compensation" means the average of the
annual compensation of the Executive for the three full calendar years within
the final five full calendar years of his employment which will produce the
highest average.  For this purpose, the compensation of the Executive shall
mean his total cash remuneration from the Corporation, including bonuses paid
for each year under the Corporation's Senior Management Incentive Plan, plus
the sum of:  (a) any salary reduction amounts which the Executive elects to
have contributed with respect to him to a qualified cash or deferred
arrangement under Section 401(k) of the Code, to a benefit equalization plan in
lieu of contributions to such a qualified cash or deferred arrangement, to a
cafeteria plan under Section 125 of the Code, or to any similar plan or
arrangement, and (b) any amounts deferred under any deferred compensation plan
or contract.  Amounts described in (a) and (b) shall be deemed received at the
time the Executive would have received them but for the programs described in
(a) and (b).






<PAGE>   2


                 1.5      "Normal Retirement Date" means the first day of the
month coincident with or next following the date the Executive attains age
sixty.

                 1.6      "Other Pension Plan" means any defined benefit
pension plan, other than the Retirement Plan, in which the Executive is a
participant and which is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code and is
maintained by the Corporation or a subsidiary of the Corporation.

                 1.7      "Retirement Date" means the date the Executive
retires under this Agreement on account of early or normal retirement.

                 1.8      "Retirement Plan" means the Retirement Income Plan of
Wachovia Corporation and any successor thereto.

                 1.9      "Supplemental Benefit" means the monthly benefit
payable to the Executive under this Agreement.

Section 2.       Normal Retirement.  At his Normal Retirement Date, the
Executive will retire and will be entitled to receive the Supplemental Benefit,
computed in the form of a single life annuity for his life.  The monthly amount
of the Supplemental Benefit shall equal one-twelfth of the product of two and
one-half percent of the Executive's Final Average Compensation times the number
of years of his creditable service determined under the provisions of the
Retirement Plan (subject to a maximum of 62.5%), reduced by the monthly amount
payable under the Retirement Plan and any Other Pension Plan.  The offset shall
equal the monthly amounts actually payable under the Retirement Plan and any
Other Pension Plan, based on the payment option elected by the Executive.

Section 3.       Early Retirement.  If the Executive has attained his
fifty-fifth birthday but has not attained his Normal Retirement Date, and has
ten or more years of service, he may elect early retirement as of the first day
of any calendar month following written notice of at least ninety days to the
Corporation and the Committee.  The Supplemental Benefit of the Executive who
elects early retirement shall equal the benefit determined under Section 2 as
of such date, reduced by five percent for each year (with proportionate
allowance for complete months) by which the starting date of the benefit
precedes attainment of his sixtieth birthday.  With the consent of the
Committee, the Supplemental Benefit shall be payable to the Executive pursuant
to Section 2 commencing as of the first day of any calendar month on or after
his early retirement and before his Normal Retirement Date.  The request for
benefit payment must be filed by the Executive in writing with the Committee at
least thirty days prior to the date payments are requested to commence.

Section 4.       Spouse's Supplemental Benefit.  If the Executive shall be
married on his Retirement Date, and shall die thereafter survived by such
spouse, or if the Executive shall die prior to his Retirement Date and shall be
married on the date of his death, such spouse shall be entitled to a monthly
supplemental benefit (herein the "Spouse's Supplemental Benefit") payable for
life and equal to 60% of the monthly amount of the Supplemental Benefit payable
to the Executive (assuming, for an Executive who shall die prior to his
Retirement Date, that the Executive had retired on the date immediately
preceding the date of his death and that the years





                                     - 2 -
<PAGE>   3

of his creditable service included the years and fractions thereof from the
date of death to his Normal Retirement Date), before applying the reduction for
the monthly amount payable to the Executive under the Retirement Plan and any
Other Pension Plan, but reduced by the monthly amount, if any, payable to the
spouse under the Retirement Plan and any Other Pension Plan in the calendar
month next following the death of the Executive.  Notwithstanding the
provisions of this Section 4 or Section 7(k), in no event shall the Spouse's
Supplemental Benefit be less than the amount payable with respect to the
Executive under the Equalization Plan discussed in Section 7(k).  The monthly
amount of the Spouse's Supplemental Benefit shall be payable on the first day
of each calendar month following the death of the Executive and preceding the
death of such spouse.

Section 5.       Optional Forms of Payment.  Notwithstanding the provisions of
Sections 2 through 4, the present value of the sum of the Supplemental Benefit
and the Spouse's Supplemental Benefit (if any) may, at the request of the
Executive and with the consent of the Executive's spouse (if any) and the
Committee, be payable in cash in a lump sum within thirty days following the
Retirement Date of the Executive.  Such present value shall be the actuarial
equivalent (as defined in the Retirement Plan) of the Supplemental Benefit and
Spouse's Supplemental Benefit (if any).  The request for a lump sum
distribution, and the consent of the Executive's spouse, must be filed by the
Executive with the Committee at least sixty days prior to the Retirement Date.
Such consent shall be in writing on a form provided by the Committee.

Section 6.       Disability.  In the event the Executive suffers a disability
(as defined in the Retirement Plan) prior to the Retirement Date, the Executive
shall continue to accrue a Supplemental Benefit under this Agreement based upon
the Final Average Compensation of the Executive as of the last date the
Executive was paid by the Corporation (including sick pay) and taking into
account the period from the disability of the Executive to the Normal
Retirement Date as creditable service for purposes of this Agreement.  The
Supplemental Benefit of the Executive who is disabled shall be determined and
payable as of the Normal Retirement Date of the Executive.

Section 7.       Miscellaneous.

                 (a)      The Executive shall forfeit any right to the
         Supplemental Benefit or any other rights hereunder (including the
         Spouse's Supplemental Benefit) if he (i) declines to retire at his
         Normal Retirement Date, (ii) terminates employment with the
         Corporation prior to his Retirement Date without written consent of
         the Committee, or (iii) is terminated for "cause."  Termination for
         cause shall arise if the Executive's employment by the Corporation is
         terminated because of or arising out of:  (A) criminal dishonesty, (B)
         refusal to perform his employment duties for the Corporation on
         substantially a full-time basis, (C) refusal to act in accordance with
         any specific substantive instructions of the Corporation's Chief
         Executive Officer or Board of Directors, or (D) engaging in conduct
         which could be materially damaging to the Corporation without a
         reasonable good faith belief by the Executive that such conduct was in
         the best interest of the Corporation.

<PAGE>   4

                 (b)      The Supplemental Benefit shall cease to be paid to
         the Executive (and rights to the Spouse's Supplemental Benefit shall
         terminate) if he shall disclose material confidential information or
         trade secrets concerning the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries
         without the Corporation's consent, or shall engage in any activity
         that is materially damaging to the Corporation including, but not
         limited to, engaging in competitive employment at any time.  The
         Executive shall be deemed to engage in competitive employment if he
         shall render services as a employee, officer, director, consultant or
         otherwise, for any employer which conducts a principal business or
         enterprise that competes directly with the Corporation or any
         subsidiary or affiliate of the Corporation.  The Committee shall have
         authority to cease payments under this paragraph (b), and the
         determination of the Committee shall be final and conclusive. Upon the
         request of the Executive, the Committee may grant an advance opinion
         as to whether a proposed activity would violate the provisions of this
         paragraph (b).

                 (c)      The Executive acknowledges that he has entered into
         this Agreement of his own free will and without duress.  In
         consideration of the mutual obligations and covenants hereunder, the
         Executive unconditionally releases the Corporation and its
         subsidiaries, and their respective directors, officers, employees and
         shareholders, from any and all claims, liabilities and obligations of
         any nature pertaining to termination of the Executive's employment by
         the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries, including but not limited
         to (i) any claims under federal, state or local laws prohibiting
         discrimination including without limitation the Age Discrimination in
         Employment Act of 1967, as amended, or (ii) any claims growing out of
         any alleged legal restrictions on the Corporation's right to terminate
         the Executive's employment, such as any alleged implied contract of
         employment or termination contrary to public policy.  The Executive
         acknowledges that he has been advised to consult with an attorney
         prior to signing this Agreement, that he has had no less than
         twenty-one days to consider this Agreement prior to the execution
         hereof, and that he may revoke this Agreement at any time within seven
         days following execution hereof.

                 (d)      This Agreement shall be administered and interpreted
         by the Committee or its duly authorized designee, whose decisions
         shall be final.  Wherever applicable, interpretation of this Agreement
         shall be consistent with the terms of the Retirement Plan.

                 (e)      Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as
         giving the Executive the right to be retained in the employ of the
         Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation at all or for any
         specified period in any particular position, or any right to any
         payment whatsoever except to the extent provided for by this
         Agreement.

                 (f)      Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, if any
         person entitled to receive payments hereunder (the "recipient") shall
         be physically or mentally or legally incapable of receiving or
         acknowledging receipt of such payment, the





                                     - 4 -

         Corporation, upon the receipt of satisfactory evidence that another
         person or institution is maintaining the recipient and that no
         guardian or committee has been appointed for the recipient, may cause
         such payment to be made to such person or institution so maintaining
         the recipient.

                 (g)      Nothing in this Agreement and no action taken
         pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall create or shall be
         construed as creating a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship
         between the Corporation and the Executive or any other person.  Any
         amounts which are or may be set aside hereunder shall continue for all
         purposes to be a part of the general funds of the Corporation, and no
         person other than the Corporation shall, by virtue of the provisions
         of this Agreement, have any interest in such funds.  To the extent
         that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the
         Corporation hereunder, such right shall be no greater than the right
         of any unsecured general creditor of the Corporation.

                 (h)      The benefits payable under this Agreement may not be
         assigned by the Executive or any other person nor anticipated in any
         way.

                 (i)      The Committee may, in its sole discretion, terminate,
         suspend or amend this Agreement at any time or from time to time, in
         whole or in part; provided, that except as otherwise specifically
         provided herein no such termination, suspension or amendment made
         following the date that payments commence hereunder will affect the
         right of any person to receive benefits earned hereunder.

                 (j)      This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
         accordance with the laws of the State of North Carolina.

                 (k)      In the event the Executive shall qualify to receive
         payments under this Agreement and under the Wachovia Corporation
         Retirement Income Benefit Equalization Plan (the "Equalization Plan"),
         payments shall be made hereunder rather than and in lieu of payments
         under the Equalization Plan, and neither the Executive nor any other
         person claiming under or through him shall thereupon have any further
         rights or be entitled to any benefits under the Equalization Plan.
         The execution of this Agreement by the Executive constitutes a release
         by the Executive of all rights and benefits under the Equalization
         Plan.

                 (l)      [OPTIONAL]If the Executive [was a participant in the
         South Carolina National Corporation Supplemental Executive Retirement
         Plan] OR [was a party to a Supplemental Retirement Agreement between
         the Executive and First Atlanta Corporation] (referred to herein as
         the "Predecessor SERP"), in no event shall the Supplemental Benefit or
         Spouse's Supplemental Benefit payable under this Agreement be less
         than the benefit determined pursuant to the Predecessor SERP had such
         Predecessor SERP remained in effect until the Retirement Date of the
         Executive.  The execution of this Agreement by the




                                     - 5 -

         Executive constitutes a release by the Executive of all rights and
         benefits under the Predecessor SERP.

  (l)      [OPTIONAL]This Agreement amends, replaces and supersedes the prior
         Executive Retirement Agreement between the Executive and the 
         Corporation dated ___________________________.


                 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement has been executed in behalf
of the Corporation by its duly authorized officers and by the Executive as of

                        EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT AGREEMENT

                 THIS EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT AGREEMENT, made and entered into as
of the 27th day of January, 1995, by and between WACHOVIA CORPORATION (the
"Corporation"), a North Carolina corporation, and ROBERT S. McCOY, JR. (the
"Executive"), a senior management employee of the Corporation;

                               R E C I T A L S

                 The Executive is a senior management employee of the
Corporation, and as such has rendered and is expected to continue to render
valuable services in behalf of the Corporation.  The Compensation, Nominating
and Organization Committee (the "Committee") of the Corporation desires for the
Corporation to provide the Executive with supplemental retirement benefits
partially in recognition of such services.  In addition, the Committee has
determined that providing such benefits will make the Corporation's benefits
package more competitive with packages offered by many other employers and will
facilitate management succession planning for the Corporation.

                 NOW, THEREFORE, the Corporation and the Executive hereby
mutually agree as follows:

Section 1.       Definitions.  When used herein, the words and phrases below
shall have the meanings set forth, unless a different meaning is clearly
required by the context.  Terms used but not defined herein, and which are
defined in the Retirement Plan, shall have the meaning assigned to them in the
Retirement Plan.  Masculine pronouns include feminine pronouns wherever used
and vice versa.

                 1.1      "Board of Directors" means the Board of Directors of
the Corporation.

                 1.2      "Code" means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as it
may be amended from time to time.

                 1.3      "Effective Date" means January 27, 1995.

                 1.4      "Final Average Compensation" means the average of the
annual compensation of the Executive for the three full calendar years within
the final five full calendar years of his employment which will produce the
highest average.  For this purpose, the compensation of the Executive shall
mean his total cash remuneration from the Corporation, including bonuses paid
for each year under the Corporation's Senior Management Incentive Plan, plus
the sum of:  (a) any salary reduction amounts which the Executive elects to
have contributed with respect to him to a qualified cash or deferred
arrangement under Section 401(k) of the Code, to a benefit equalization plan in
lieu of contributions to such a qualified cash or deferred arrangement, to a
cafeteria plan under Section 125 of the Code, or to any similar plan or
arrangement, and (b) any amounts deferred under any deferred compensation plan
or contract.  Amounts described in (a) and (b)

<PAGE>   2

                 1.5      "Normal Retirement Date" means the first day of the
month coincident with or next following the date the Executive attains age
sixty.

                 1.6      "Other Pension Plan" means any defined benefit
pension plan, other than the Retirement Plan, in which the Executive is a
participant and which is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code and is
maintained by the Corporation or a subsidiary of the Corporation.

                 1.7      "Retirement Date" means the date the Executive
retires under this Agreement on account of early or normal retirement.

                 1.8      "Retirement Plan" means the Retirement Income Plan of
Wachovia Corporation and any successor thereto.

                 1.9      "Supplemental Benefit" means the monthly benefit
payable to the Executive under this Agreement.

Section 2.       Normal Retirement.  At his Normal Retirement Date, the
Executive will retire and will be entitled to receive the Supplemental Benefit,
computed in the form of a single life annuity for his life.  The monthly amount
of the Supplemental Benefit shall equal one-twelfth of the product of
fifty-five percent (55%), increased by one percentage point for each year of
creditable service (as determined under the Retirement Plan) in excess of ten
years, provided that the maximum percentage as increased does not exceed sixty
percent (60%), multiplied by the Executive's Final Average Compensation,
reduced by the monthly amount payable under the Retirement Plan and any Other
Pension Plan.  The offset shall equal the monthly amounts actually payable
under the Retirement Plan and any Other Pension Plan, based on the payment
option elected by the Executive.

Section 3.       Early Retirement.  If the Executive has attained his
fifty-fifth birthday but has not attained his Normal Retirement Date, and has
ten or more years of service, he may elect early retirement as of the first day
of any calendar month following written notice of at least ninety days to the
Corporation and the Committee.  The Supplemental Benefit of the Executive who
elects early retirement shall equal the benefit determined under Section 2 as
of such date, reduced by five percent for each year (with proportionate
allowance for complete months) by which the starting date of the benefit
precedes attainment of his sixtieth birthday.  With the consent of the
Committee, the Supplemental Benefit shall be payable to the Executive pursuant
to Section 2 commencing as of the first day of any calendar month on or after
his early retirement and before his Normal Retirement Date.  The request for
benefit payment must be filed by the Executive in writing with the Committee at
least thirty days prior to the date payments are requested to commence.

Section 4.       Spouse's Supplemental Benefit.  If the Executive shall be
married on his Retirement Date, and shall die thereafter survived by such
spouse, or if the Executive shall die prior to his Retirement Date and shall be
married on the date of his death, such spouse shall be entitled to a monthly
supplemental benefit (herein the "Spouse's Supplemental Benefit") payable for
life and equal to 60% of the monthly amount of the Supplemental Benefit payable
to the Executive (assuming, for an Executive who shall die prior to his
Retirement Date, that the 


                                     - 2 -
<PAGE>   3

Executive had retired on the date immediately preceding the date of his
death and that the years of his creditable service included the years and
fractions thereof from the date of death to his Normal Retirement Date), before
applying the reduction for the monthly amount payable to the Executive under
the Retirement Plan and any Other Pension Plan, but reduced by the monthly
amount, if any, payable to the spouse under the Retirement Plan and any Other
Pension Plan in the calendar month next following the death of the Executive. 
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4 or Section 7(k), in no event
shall the Spouse's Supplemental Benefit be less than the amount payable with
respect to the Executive under the Equalization Plan discussed in Section 7(k). 
The monthly amount of the Spouse's Supplemental Benefit shall be payable on the
first day of each calendar month following the death of the Executive and
preceding the death of such spouse.

Section 5.       Optional Forms of Payment.  Notwithstanding the provisions of
Sections 2 through 4, the present value of the sum of the Supplemental Benefit
and the Spouse's Supplemental Benefit (if any) may, at the request of the
Executive and with the consent of the Executive's spouse (if any) and the
Committee, be payable in cash in a lump sum within thirty days following the
Retirement Date of the Executive.  Such present value shall be the actuarial
equivalent (as defined in the Retirement Plan) of the Supplemental Benefit and
Spouse's Supplemental Benefit (if any).  The request for a lump sum
distribution, and the consent of the Executive's spouse, must be filed by the
Executive with the Committee at least sixty days prior to the Retirement Date.
Such consent shall be in writing on a form provided by the Committee.

Section 6.       Disability.  In the event the Executive suffers a disability
(as defined in the Retirement Plan) prior to the Retirement Date, the Executive
shall continue to accrue a Supplemental Benefit under this Agreement based upon
the Final Average Compensation of the Executive as of the last date the
Executive was paid by the Corporation (including sick pay) and taking into
account the period from the disability of the Executive to the Normal
Retirement Date as creditable service for purposes of this Agreement.  The
Supplemental Benefit of the Executive who is disabled shall be determined and 
payable as of the Normal Retirement Date of the Executive.

Section 7.       Miscellaneous.

                 (a)      The Executive shall forfeit any right to the
         Supplemental Benefit or any other rights hereunder (including the
         Spouse's Supplemental Benefit) if he (i) declines to retire at his
         Normal Retirement Date, (ii) terminates employment with the
         Corporation prior to his Retirement Date without written consent of
         the Committee, or (iii) is terminated for "cause."  Termination for
         cause shall arise if the Executive's employment by the Corporation is
         terminated because of or arising out of:  (A) criminal dishonesty, (B)
         refusal to perform his employment duties for the Corporation on
         substantially a full-time basis, (C) refusal to act in accordance with
         any specific substantive instructions of the Corporation's Chief
         Executive Officer or Board of Directors, or (D) engaging in conduct
         which could be materially damaging to the Corporation without a
         reasonable good faith belief by the Executive that such conduct was in
         the best interest of the Corporation.

                 (b)      The Supplemental Benefit shall cease to be paid to
         the Executive (and rights to the Spouse's Supplemental Benefit shall
         terminate) if he shall disclose material confidential information or
         trade secrets concerning the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries
         without the Corporation's consent, or shall engage in any activity
         that is materially damaging to the Corporation including, but not
         limited to, engaging in competitive employment at any time.  The
         Executive shall be deemed to engage in competitive employment if he
         shall render services as a employee, officer, director, consultant or
         otherwise, for any employer which conducts a principal business or
         enterprise that competes directly with the Corporation or any
         subsidiary or affiliate of the Corporation.  The Committee shall have
         authority to cease payments under this paragraph (b), and the
         determination of the Committee shall be final and conclusive.  Upon
         the request of the Executive, the Committee may grant an advance
         opinion as to whether a proposed activity would violate the provisions
         of this paragraph (b).

                 (c)      The Executive acknowledges that he has entered into
         this Agreement of his own free will and without duress.  In
         consideration of the mutual obligations and covenants hereunder, the
         Executive unconditionally releases the Corporation and its
         subsidiaries, and their respective directors, officers, employees and
         shareholders, from any and all claims, liabilities and obligations of
         any nature pertaining to termination of the Executive's employment by
         the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries, including but not limited
         to (i) any claims under federal, state or local laws prohibiting 
         discrimination including without limitation the Age Discrimination 
         in Employment Act of 1967, as amended, or (ii) any claims growing out
         of any alleged legal restrictions on the Corporation's right to 
         terminate the Executive's employment, such as any alleged implied 
         contract of employment or termination contrary to public policy.  The
         Executive acknowledges that he has been advised to consult with an 
         attorney prior to signing this Agreement, that he has had no less than
         twenty-one days to consider this Agreement prior to the execution 
         hereof, and that he may revoke this Agreement at any time within 
         seven days following execution hereof.

                 (d)      This Agreement shall be administered and interpreted
         by the Committee or its duly authorized designee, whose decisions
         shall be final.  Wherever applicable, interpretation of this Agreement
         shall be consistent with the terms of the Retirement Plan.

                 (e)      Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as
         giving the Executive the right to be retained in the employ of the
         Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation at all or for any
         specified period in any particular position, or any right to any
         payment whatsoever except to the extent provided for by this
         Agreement.

                 (f)      Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, if any
         person entitled to receive payments hereunder (the "recipient") shall
         be physically or mentally or legally incapable of receiving or
         acknowledging receipt of such payment, the 


                                     - 4 -
<PAGE>   5


         Corporation, upon the receipt of satisfactory evidence that another 
         person or institution is maintaining the recipient and that no
         guardian or committee has been appointed for the recipient, may cause
         such payment to be made to such person or institution so maintaining
         the recipient.

                 (g)      Nothing in this Agreement and no action taken
         pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall create or shall be
         construed as creating a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship
         between the Corporation and the Executive or any other person.  Any
         amounts which are or may be set aside hereunder shall continue for all
         purposes to be a part of the general funds of the Corporation, and no
         person other than the Corporation shall, by virtue of the provisions
         of this Agreement, have any interest in such funds.  To the extent
         that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the 
         Corporation hereunder, such right shall be no greater than the right 
         of any unsecured general creditor of the Corporation.

                 (h)      The benefits payable under this Agreement may not be
         assigned by the Executive or any other person nor anticipated in any
         way.

                 (i)      The Committee may, in its sole discretion, terminate,
         suspend or amend this Agreement at any time or from time to time, in
         whole or in part; provided, that except as otherwise specifically
         provided herein no such termination, suspension or amendment made
         following the date that payments commence hereunder will affect the
         right of any person to receive benefits earned hereunder.

                 (j)      This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
         accordance with the laws of the State of North Carolina.

                 (k)      In the event the Executive shall qualify to receive
         payments under this Agreement and under the Wachovia Corporation
         Retirement Income Benefit Equalization Plan (the "Equalization Plan"),
         payments shall be made hereunder rather than and in lieu of payments
         under the Equalization Plan, and neither the Executive nor any other
         person claiming under or through him shall thereupon have any further
         rights or be entitled to any benefits under the Equalization Plan.
         The execution of this Agreement by the Executive constitutes a release
         by the Executive of all rights and benefits under the Equalization
         Plan.

                 (l)      In no event shall the Supplemental Benefit or
         Spouse's Supplemental Benefit payable under this Agreement be less
         than the benefit determined pursuant to the South Carolina National
         Corporation Executive Retirement Plan (the "Predecessor SERP") had
         such Predecessor SERP remained in effect until the Retirement Date of
         the Executive.  The execution of this Agreement by the Executive
         constitutes a release by the Executive of all rights and benefits
         under the Predecessor SERP.

                              WACHOVIA CORPORATION
                     RETIREMENT SAVINGS AND PROFIT-SHARING
                           BENEFIT EQUALIZATION PLAN


                 Section 1.       Name and Purpose.  The name of this plan is
Wachovia Corporation Retirement Savings and Profit-Sharing Benefit Equalization
Plan (the "Plan").  The purpose of the Plan is to help motivate and retain
dedicated and continued service of selected management employees of Wachovia
Corporation and its affiliates ("Wachovia") by protecting such employees from
the loss of benefits under the Retirement Savings and Profit-Sharing Plan of
Wachovia Corporation, as amended from time to time (the "RSPSP"), resulting
from application of certain statutory restrictions, and by providing benefits
comparable to those provided under the RSPSP for other eligible employees whose
benefits are not reduced because of such restrictions.  Terms used but not
defined herein, and which are defined in the RSPSP, shall have the meanings
assigned to them in the RSPSP.

                 Section 2.       Administration.  The Compensation, Nominating
and Organization Committee of Wachovia Corporation (the "Committee") shall
administer, construe and interpret the Plan, and any determination by the
Committee shall be conclusive and binding on all persons affected thereby.  The
Committee may adopt and amend from time to time by-laws or rules, not
inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan.  The Committee may correct errors
and, so far as practicable, may adjust any benefit or payment or credit
accordingly.  No member of the Committee shall be liable for any act done or
determination made in good faith.

                 Section 3.       Participants.  The Participants in the Plan
shall be the management employees of Wachovia who are selected as Participants
by the Committee.  The participation of a selected management employee in the
Plan shall be effective as of the date designated by the Committee.  Each
Participant shall receive as evidence of participation in the Plan a
Certificate of Participation substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereof.

                 Section 4.       Equalization Allocations.  As of each
adjustment date under the RSPSP, the following steps shall be taken in the
order set forth below:

                 (a)      Wachovia shall determine the amount of any
         contribution then allocable to the account of the Participant under
         the RSPSP but for the application of any statutory contribution
         restriction applicable to the RSPSP under Section 401(a) of the
         Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").  Such amount
         shall be referred to herein as the Participant's "Restricted Amount."
         By way of illustration and not limitation, the statutory contribution
         restrictions to be taken into account in determining the Restricted
         Amount of the Participant shall include the restrictions found in
         Sections 401(a)(4), 401(a)(17), 401(a)(30), 401(k), 401(m), 402(g) and
         415 of the Code, or any successors thereto or similar statutory
         restrictions enacted in the future.  In the event a contribution is
         allocated to the RSPSP account of the Participant and is subsequently
         distributed to the Participant or forfeited because of a statutory
         contribution restriction, such distributed or forfeited amount shall
         be treated for purposes of this Plan as a Restricted Amount as of the
         adjustment date coincident with or next following such distribution or
         forfeiture.

                 (b)      The Restricted Amount of each Participant shall be
         allocated to a book account maintained by Wachovia for the Participant
         (the "Benefit Equalization Account").
<PAGE>   2

                 (c)      Any amounts distributed from the Benefit Equalization
         Account in accordance with Section 7 since the next preceding
         adjustment date shall be debited.

                 (d)      The Benefit Equalization Account of each Participant
         shall be credited with an amount equivalent to interest computed by
         multiplying the amount then in the Benefit Equalization Account,
         excluding any Restricted Amount allocated to the Benefit Equalization
         Account as of such adjustment date, by the rate determined in
         accordance with the provisions of Exhibit B hereof.

                 Section 5.       Deferral Agreement.  As a condition of
participation in the Plan, each Participant shall execute a Deferral Agreement
substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereof.  Pursuant to the Deferral
Agreement, the Participant shall agree to defer payment of his compensation
from Wachovia equal to the Restricted Amount described in Section 4, less the
portion of such Restricted Amount attributable to supplemental contributions by
Wachovia.  The Deferral Agreement shall be executed prior to the date the
Participant first enters the Plan and shall continue in effect for each year
thereafter in which he remains a Participant.

                 Section 6.       SERP Transfer Account.  Notwithstanding the
provisions of Section 3, each employee of Wachovia who, as of January 27, 1995
(the "Termination Date"), was a participant in the South Carolina National
Corporation Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan or was a party to a
Supplemental Retirement Agreement with First Atlanta Corporation (such plan or
agreement is referred to herein as a "Predecessor SERP"), but who had not
completed ten or more years of service and attained age fifty-five, shall be a
Participant in this Plan (for purposes of this Section 6, such Participant is
referred to as a "Predecessor SERP Participant").  As of the Effective Date set
forth in Section 15, a book reserve account shall be established by Wachovia
(the "SERP Transfer Account") with respect to each Predecessor SERP
Participant.  The SERP Transfer Account of each Predecessor SERP Participant
shall be credited on the Effective Date with an amount equal to the lump sum
present value (determined in accordance with the actuarial assumptions set
forth in the Retirement Income Plan of Wachovia Corporation) of the benefit
earned under the Predecessor SERP by the Predecessor SERP Participant as of the
Termination Date (the "Predecessor SERP Benefit").  The Predecessor SERP
Benefit shall equal the product of (a) multiplied by (b), where (a) is the
amount of benefit which would be payable under the terms of the Predecessor
SERP to the Predecessor SERP Participant upon retirement at the age of
sixty-two, determined by projecting service to age sixty-two and by assuming
that the final average compensation of the Predecessor SERP Participant for
purposes of the Predecessor SERP is equal to the greater of (i) his final
average compensation as of the Termination Date, or (ii) his total annualized
compensation (equal to the base rate of pay in effect on the Termination Date
and the bonuses paid with respect to 1994 under Wachovia's Senior Management
Incentive Plan and amounts deferred under any plan or arrangement with Wachovia
for the year ending on December 31, 1994), and (b) is a fraction, the numerator
of which is the number of years of service which the Predecessor SERP
Participant has completed on the Termination Date, and the denominator of which
is the number of years of service which the Predecessor SERP Participant would
have completed if he had remained an employee of Wachovia until age sixty-two.
The SERP Transfer Account of a Predecessor SERP Participant shall be fully
vested at all times.  The SERP Transfer Account shall be adjusted as of each
adjustment date in the same manner as the Benefit Equalization Account as
described in Section 4, and shall be payable as described in Section 7.
Following the establishment of the SERP Transfer Account pursuant to this
Section 6, the Predecessor SERP Participant shall have no further rights or
benefits under the Predecessor SERP.

                 Section 7.       Payment of Benefits.  The amount in the
Benefit Equalization Account or SERP Transfer Account of a Participant (the
"Participant's Benefit") shall be paid to the same person or persons as the
benefit of the Participant under the RSPSP (the "RSPSP Beneficiaries") under
one of the following options as elected by the Participant, with the consent of
the Committee, prior to the date the Participant's Benefit becomes payable
under the Plan:

                 (i)      Installments:  Payment in cash in approximately equal
         monthly installments over a term certain not exceeding 15 years.

                 (ii)     Lump Sum:  Payment in cash in a single lump sum 
         payment.

The Participant's Benefit shall become payable at the same time his benefit
under the RSPSP becomes payable on account of retirement, termination of
service or death.  In no event shall a Participant's Benefit be subject to
payment while the Participant is in service.  A Participant's election as to
the form of the payment of the Participant's Benefit shall be made in the same
manner and at the same time as his election is made as to the form of the
payment of benefits under the RSPSP.  If a Participant fails to elect one of
the foregoing distribution options, the Participant's Benefit shall be paid in
the same manner as his benefit under the RSPSP.  At any time prior to the death
of a Participant, the Participant may elect (which election shall be subject to
change at any time upon notice in writing by the Participant to the Committee)
for any payments hereunder following his death to be made to a person or
persons other than the RSPSP Beneficiaries, in which event such payments shall
be made to such other person or persons in the same manner and at the same time
as such payments would have been made to the RSPSP Beneficiaries pursuant to
this Section 7.  Such election shall be made by the Participant in writing on a
form provided by the Committee.

                 Section 8.       Expenses of Administering Plan.  All expenses
of administering the Plan shall be borne by Wachovia and no part thereof shall
be charged against the benefit of any Participant.

                 Section 9.       Termination or Amendment of Plan.  The
Committee may at any time terminate the Plan as applied to any one or more
Participants, or amend the Plan in any respect, except that any termination or
amendment of the Plan shall not affect rights to payments hereunder with
respect to any Participant to the extent of amounts then in his Benefit
Equalization Account or SERP Transfer Account (subject to the credits and
debits as provided in Section 4 until the Participant's Benefit is fully
distributed), unless the Participant shall consent thereto in writing.

                 Section 10.      Assignment.  The right of a Participant or
any other person to the payment of benefits hereunder shall not be assigned,
transferred, pledged or encumbered, except for transfers on account of death of
the recipient thereof.

                 Section 11.      No Trust; Unsecured Interest.  Nothing
contained in the Plan and no action taken pursuant to the provisions of the
Plan shall create or shall be construed as creating a trust of any kind, nor a
fiduciary relationship between Wachovia and any Participant, any Participant's
designated beneficiaries, or any other person.  Any amounts which are or may be
set aside in deferred expense accounts to cover expenditures anticipated under
the provisions of the Plan shall continue for all purposes to be a part of the
general funds of Wachovia, and no person other than Wachovia shall, by virtue
of the provisions of the Plan, have any interest





                                       3
<PAGE>   4

in such funds.  To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive
payments from Wachovia under the Plan, such right shall be no greater than the
right of any unsecured general creditor of Wachovia.

                 Section 12.      Facility of Payment.  Notwithstanding any
other provisions hereof, if any person entitled to receive payments hereunder
(the "recipient") shall be physically or mentally or legally incapable of
receiving or acknowledging receipt of any benefit payable hereunder, Wachovia,
upon the receipt of satisfactory evidence that another person or institution is
maintaining the recipient and that no guardian or committee has been appointed
for the recipient, may cause such benefit otherwise payable to the recipient to
be made to such person or institution so maintaining the recipient.

                 Section 13.      Predecessor Plan.  Effective January 1, 1993,
Wachovia implemented the Wachovia Corporation Retirement Savings and
Profit-Sharing Benefit Equalization Plan (the "Predecessor Plan") for the
purpose of protecting selected key executives from certain potential reductions
in benefits to which they would otherwise be entitled under the RSPSP.  This
Plan provides identical protection (as well as additional protections) to such
key executives and to other employees of Wachovia, and thus implementation of
this Plan eliminates the need for the Predecessor Plan.  Accordingly, as of the
Effective Date of this Plan the Predecessor Plan shall be terminated, all
participants in the Predecessor Plan shall automatically become Participants in
this Plan as of the Effective Date, the Benefit Equalization Accounts of such
participants under the Predecessor Plan shall become their respective Benefit
Equalization Accounts under this Plan as of the Effective Date, and the
participants in the Predecessor Plan shall thereupon have no further rights or
benefits under the Predecessor Plan.

                 Section 14.      Construction.  The provisions of the Plan
shall be construed and enforced according to the laws of the State of North
Carolina.

                 Section 15.      Effective Date.  This Plan shall be effective
on and after the 27th day of January, 1995.

                 With respect to each calendar month during which a deferred
compensation account balance exists, the Long-Term Applicable Federal Rate for

the Long-Term Applicable Federal Rate for the month applied to the average
daily balance in the account for the month multiplied by a ratio, the numerator
of which is the number of days in the month and the denominator of which is the
number of days in the year.

defined by Internal Revenue Code Section 1274(d) which is published each month
in a Revenue Ruling issued by the Internal Revenue Service.  The Long-Term
Applicable Federal Rate is determined monthly by the Internal Revenue Service
on the basis of the average market yield on outstanding marketable long-term
obligations of the United States.

                        Equalization Deferral Agreement


                 I acknowledge that, as an eligible employee of Wachovia
Corporation or its affiliates, I have elected to participate in the Retirement
Savings and Profit-Sharing Plan of Wachovia Corporation (the "RSPSP").  I
understand that the amount of my pre-tax or after-tax contributions which I have
elected to contribute to the RSPSP, as well as contributions to my account
from Wachovia, may be reduced because of statutory contribution limitations
applicable to the RSPSP under the Internal Revenue Code.  In that event, I
understand that the Wachovia Retirement Savings and Profit-Sharing Benefit
Equalization Plan (the "Equalization Plan") allows me to defer the receipt of
the portion of my compensation which is subject to a statutory contribution
restriction under the RSPSP.  The purpose of this agreement is to evidence my
election to defer such amounts under the Equalization Plan.  I hereby agree and
acknowledge that my participation in the Equalization Plan is subject to the
terms and conditions of the Equalization Plan and hereby agree to abide by and
be bound to the terms thereof.  

I.       ELECTION OF DEFERRAL
         --------------------

                 I hereby elect to defer under the Equalization Plan the
         remaining amount of any Elective (pre-tax) or Participant (after-tax)
         Contributions which I have elected to make under the RSPSP but are in
         excess of the allowable maximum contribution limits under the RSPSP.
         This election shall be effective with respect to compensation earned
         in pay periods beginning on or after the date of this agreement and
         shall remain in effect for subsequent years until modified or
         cancelled in writing.

II.      PAYMENT OF BENEFITS
         -------------------

                 I understand that I have a nonforfeitable interest in amounts
         credited to my Benefit Equalization Account under the Equalization
         Plan.
                 I understand that payment of benefits from the Equalization
         Plan shall be made at the same time and in the same manner as payments
         are made from the RSPSP, except that these amounts shall not be
         eligible for in-service withdrawals or loans.
                 I further understand that all amounts deferred, together with
         amounts credited thereon, shall remain assets of Wachovia Corporation
         and subject to the general creditors of Wachovia Corporation until
         these assets are distributed to me in accordance with the provisions
         of the Equalization Plan.  I understand that my right to receive
         payments from Wachovia Corporation under this Deferral Agreement is no
         greater than the right of an unsecured general creditor of Wachovia
         Corporation.
                 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company and I have entered into this
agreement as of the ________ day of _______________________, 19__.

                                   AMENDMENT



         THIS AMENDMENT to the Agreement made and entered into the 22nd day of
October, 1993, by and between WACHOVIA CORPORATION ("Wachovia") and JOHN G.
MEDLIN, JR. ("Medlin")(the"Agreement"), is made and entered into effective the
28th day of July, 1995, by and between Wachovia and Medlin.


                                    RECITALS

         John G. Medlin, Jr. presently serves as Chairman of the Board of
Directors of Wachovia Corporation and provides services to Wachovia pursuant to
the terms of the Agreement.  In 1994, Medlin was elected a Director by the
shareholders of Wachovia to serve for a term of three years ending at the
Annual Meeting of Shareholders in April 1997 and was reelected Chairman of the
Board for a one year term on April 28, 1995.

         The Board of Directors of Wachovia believes at this time that it is in
the best interest of Wachovia to have the services of Medlin as provided under
the Agreement available to Wachovia for a term beyond the present December 31,
1995 expiration date of the Agreement.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants
set forth in the Agreement and as provided in Paragraph 13(a), Wachovia,
through the action of its Board of Directors, and Medlin mutually agree to
amend the Agreement as follows:

                 Paragraph 1 of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety
and the following new paragraph 1 shall be substituted therefor:

                 1.       TERM OF AGREEMENT.       Subject to the provisions
         for termination as hereinafter set forth, the term of this Agreement
         shall be for a period beginning January 1, 1994, and ending April 25,
         1997.  The term of this Agreement beyond April 26, 1996, is subject to
         Medlin's re-election as Chairman of the Board at the annual
         organizational meeting of Wachovia's Board of Directors in 1996.

         The first sentence of Paragraph 10 shall be deleted in its entirety
and the following new sentence shall be substituted therefor:

                 10.      TERMINATION.     This Agreement shall terminate upon
                 Medlin's retirement as a Director at the Annual Meeting of
                 Shareholders on April 25, 1997, or when Medlin ceases to be
                 Chairman of the Board of Wachovia Corporation, whichever event
                 shall first occur.





<PAGE>   2

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Wachovia, through its Board of Directors, has
