         This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D amends and supplements the
Schedule 13D filed by First Citizens BancShares, Inc. ("BancShares"), Lewis R.
Holding, Frank B. Holding and others, with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on February 1, 1996, and previously amended by an Amendment No. 1
filed on February 19, 1997 (as amended, the "Statement") by furnishing the
additional information set forth below.


Item 4.           Purpose of Transaction.

         Item 4 of the Statement is hereby amended to include the following

subject to (i) negotiation and execution of a definitive agreement, (ii)
approval of that agreement by the Issuer's Board of Directors and shareholders
and by BancShares' Board of Directors, (iii) receipt of all required regulatory
approvals, and (iv) customary reviews by BancShares of the Issuer's assets,
corporate records, financial statements and other such matters.


Item 7.           Material to be Filed as Exhibits.
