FIRST GEORGIA HOLDING, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Liquidity
- ---------
	First Georgia Bank (the Bank) has traditionally 
maintained levels of liquidity above levels required 
by regulatory authorities.  As a member of the Federal 
Home Loan Bank System, the Bank is required to 
maintain a daily average balance of cash and eligible 
liquidity investments equal to a monthly average of 5% 
of withdrawable savings and short-term borrowings.  
The Bank's liquidity level was 8.91% and 13.49% at 
December 31, 1995 and September 30, 1995, 
respectively.

	The Bank's operational needs, demand for loan 
disbursements, and savings withdrawals can be met by 
loan principal, interest payments received, new 
deposits, and excess liquid assets.   Significant loan 
demand, deposit withdrawal, increased delinquencies, 
and increased real estate acquired in settlement of 
loans (REO) could alter this condition.    Management 
does not foresee any liquidity problems for 1995.

Capital Resources
- -----------------
	The following is a reconciliation at December 
31, 1995 of the Bank's equity capital under generally 
accepted accounting principles to regulatory capital.

	First Georgia Bank
	  Stockholder's Equity	     	            11,385,000

	Less:
	  Intangible Assets				                   1,375,000
                                         -----------
	    Tangible Capital			                  10,010,000

	Plus:
	  Qualifying intangible assets	           1,375,000
                                         -----------
	     Core Capital			                     11,385,000

	Plus:
	  Supplemental Capital			                 1,008,000
                                         -----------
	     Risk-based Capital			               12,393,000
                                         ===========

	Current regulations require institutions to keep 
minimum regulatory tangible capital equal to 1.5% of 
adjusted assets, minimum core capital to adjusted 
assets of 3% (the leverage ratio), and risk-based 
capital to risk-adjusted assets of 8%.  The Office of 
Thrift Supervision (the OTS) may increase the minimum 
core capital, or leverage ratio, based on its 
assessment of the institution's risk management 
systems and the level of total risk in the individual 
institution.  At December 31, 1995 the Bank met all 
three capital requirements.

	The Bank's regulatory capital and the required 
minimum amounts, at December 31, 1995 are summarized 
as follows:

                                       -----------  ---------------
Tangible Capital:                        5.96%         7,976,270

Risk-based:                              3.39%         3,684,760

        
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement 
Act (FDICIA) required the Federal banking agencies to 
take "prompt corrective action" in respect to 
institutions that do not meet minimum capital 
requirements.  Along with the ratios described above, 
FDICIA also introduced an additional capital 
measurement, the Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio.  The 
Tier 1 ratio is the ratio of Tier 1 or core capital to 
total risk-adjusted assets.  FDICIA establishes five 
capital tiers:  "well capitalized," "adequately 
capitalized," "undercapitalized," "significantly 
undercapitalized," and "critically undercapitalized."  
The regulators summarize their minimum requirements 
for the five capital tiers established by the FDICIA 
as follows:



                            Tier 1 Risk-based      Risk-based        Leverage 
                              Capital Ratio        Capital Ratio       Ratio
                            ------------------    --------------    ----------

Well capitalized              10% or above         6% or above      5% or above
Adequately capitalized         8% or above         4% or above      4% or above
Undercapitalized              Less than 8%         Less than 4%     Less than 3%
Significantly 
  undercapitalized            Less than 8%         Less than 4%     Less than 3%
Critically 
  undercapitalized            ------------         ------------     2% or less



	An unsatisfactory examination rating may cause 
an institution's  capitalization category to be lower 
than suggested by its actual capital position.  

	At December 31, 1995, the Bank's Tier 1 risk-
based capital ratio was 10.46%.  If a depository 
institution should fail to meet its regulatory capital 
requirements, regulatory agencies can require 
submission and funding of a capital restoration plan 
by the institution, place limits on its activities, 
require the raising of additional capital and, 
ultimately, require the appointments of a conservator 
or receiver for the institution.

<PAGE>

	The Bank's capital position changed during the 
quarter ended December 31, 1995.  Total capital as 
well as tangible capital, core capital, and risk-based 
capital continued to increase during the quarter.  The 
mix of risk-based assets and additional earnings are 
the primary factors for this increase.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Interest income
- ---------------
	Interest income on loans increased $112,103 or 
4.33% for the quarter ended December 31, 1995, 
compared for the same quarter ended December 31, 1994.  
This increase is largely due to a substantial increase 
in the average rate on loans, which increased from 
8.84% last year to 9.48% at December 31, 1995.   
Competition for loans remains strong, and loan demand 
has increased somewhat.   However, the Bank continues 
to be selective in the loans that it makes.  
Management expects loan demand to increase further 
because of the downward trends in interest rates.  
	Interest income on investments increased $43,071 
or 39.19% for the quarter ended December 31, 1995 as 
compared to the same time last year.  The Bank 
invested excess cash reserves into several new 
securities.  Total interest income increased 6.02%, or 
$163,484 for the quarter ended December 31, 1995 over 
the same period in 1994.  

Interest expense
- ----------------
	Interest on deposits increased $273,182 or 
23.54% for the three month period  ended December 31, 
1995 as compared with the same periods ending December 
31, 1994.  The main reason for this increase is the 
growth in average deposits of $2,276,457 from December 
31, 1994 to December 31, 1995.  Interest on advances 
and other borrowings decreased $58,517, or 21.10% over 
the comparable three month periods.    Interest rates 
on advances have dropped significantly, and the rate 
on the Bank's line of credit with another institution 
is tied to the Prime Rate, which also has decreased 
substantially from December 31, 1994 to December 31, 
1995.  Total interest expense increased $214,665, or 
14.93% for the quarter ended December 31, 1995 over 
the quarter ended December 31, 1994.   

Net Interest Income
- -------------------
	Net Interest income decreased $51,181 or 4.01% 
for the quarter ended December 31, 1995 over December 
31, 1994.  This decrease is the result of an increase 
in deposit balances for which the increase in interest 
rates on loans could not compensate.

Provision for Loan Losses
- -------------------------
	Management's evaluation of the risk elements in 
the loan portfolio is the basis for the provision for 
loan losses.  The elements include possible declines 
in the value of collateral due to changing economic 
conditions and depreciation over time, size and 
composition of the loan portfolio, and current 
economic conditions that might affect a borrower's 
ability to pay.  Review of specific problem loans, 
regulatory examinations, historical charge-off 
experience, and levels of nonperforming and past due 
loans are other elements considered.  Management 
reviews these factors frequently and determines if the 
level of loan loss allowances is adequate. The 
provision for loan losses expense increased $18,990 
for the quarter ended December 31, 1995 as compared 
with the corresponding period ending December 31, 
1994.  Net Interest Income after Provision for Loan 
Losses for the quarter ended December 31, 1995 
decreased $70,171, or 5.50% over the quarter ended 
December 31, 1994.

<PAGE>

Other Income
- ------------
	Other Income for the quarter dropped $46,274, a 
17.54% difference from the same quarter the previous 
year.  Deposit services charges decreased $25,288 
(15.95%) for the quarter ended December 31, 1995.  As 
the Bank tries to retain exceptional customers, fee 
income on non-sufficient funds has dropped 
substantially.   Loan Fees also decreased $19,161 or 
22.32% for the quarter, due primarily to a drop in the 
average loans outstanding.
	
Other Expenses
- --------------
	Other expenses decreased $7,112 (0.70%) for the 
quarter ended December 31, 1995 as compared to 
December 31, 1994.  This decrease is the result of a 
$18,275 drop in Salaries and Employee Benefits, or 
3.93%, at December 31, 1995 compared to December 31, 
1994.  As people leave the employment of the Bank, 
their duties have been successfully overtaken by 
remaining employees, thus eliminating the need to hire 
replacements.  Management's  continues to diligently 
focus on expense control continues to show improved 
results.  Net income for the quarter ended                  
December 31,1995 increased $50,362 or 18.27% over 
quarter ended, December 31 1994. 

               FINANCIAL CONDITION

Assets
- -------
	Loan volume increased $3,536,200 or 3.20% for 
the three month period from September 30, 1995 to 
December 31, 1995.  Even with strong competition in a 
tight loan market, loans showed strong growth.  Cash 
decreased $581,705 (22.87%) and interest bearing 
deposits in other banks also decreased $510,220 
(21.69%) for the quarter ended December 31,1995 as 
compared to December 31,1994.  As loan balances grew, 
the Bank's cash balances were used for funding.

Liabilities
- -----------
	Deposits increased $1,564,588 or 1.47% from 
December 31, 1994 to December 31, 1995. The Bank also 
increased Federal Home Loan Bank advances this quarter 
by $1,850,000 over last year's corresponding quarter.  
This increase in borrowings was necessary to help fund 
new loans.
