                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)

NOTE A

     BASIS OF PRESENTATION   
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information, and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and 
Item 310(b) of Regulation S-B of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. 
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 1996, are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended
December 31, 1996.  For further information refer to the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995.

     PENDING ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 121 (SFAS 121), "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of.  The Company is
required to implement SFAS 121 by December 31, 1996.  The provisions of SFAS
121 will require the Company to review long-lived assets for impairment
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount
of an asset may not be recoverable.  The adoption is not expected to have a
significant impact on the Company.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 122 (SFAS 122).  "Mortgage Servicing Rights," as an
amendment to SFAS 65.  The Company is required to implement SFAS 122 by
December 31, 1996.  The provisions of SFAS 122 eliminate the accounting
distinction between rights to service mortgage loans that are acquired through
loan origination and those acquired through purchase.  The adoption is not
expected to have a significant impact on the Company.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123 (SFAS 123), Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation."  The Company is required to implement SFAS 123 in 1996.  SFAS
123 establishes a method of accounting for stock compensation plans based on
fair value.  Companies are permitted to continue to use the existing method of
accounting but are required to disclose pro forma net income and earnings per
share as if SFAS 123 had been used to measure compensation cost.  The adoption
of SFAS 123 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company.

      ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS




                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

PERIOD ENDED MARCH 31, 1996

Fayette County Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company"), reported net income of
$273,330 for the first quarter of 1996, a 33.58% increase as compared to
$204,612 for the same period in 1995.  Net earnings per share for the first
quarter of 1996 and 1995 were $.45 and $.34, respectively.  The increase in net
income is primarily attributable to the increase in interest income including
fees from loans.  Total assets increased $9,880,277 to $100,812,880 between
December 31, 1995 and March 31, 1996, an increase of 10.87%.

The return on average assets for the Company was 1.19% for the three month
period ended March 31, 1996, as compared to 1.26% for the same period last
year.  The return on average shareholders' equity increased for the first three
months of 1996 to 13.91% as compared to 13.11% for the first three months of
1995.  Book value at March 31, 1996, was $13.42, an increase of $.14 from
December 31, 1995.

Deposits grew $9,682,315 from December 31, 1995, an increase of 11.89%, to
$91,119,191.  Noninterest bearing demand deposits accounted for $2,000,841 of
this increase, or 14.66%.   Time deposits over $100,000 increased $4,370,021 to
$16,671,158, at March 31, 1996.  Deposit growth is attributed to Fayette County
Bank (the "Bank") increasing its rates on time deposits in order to attract
more deposits to fund loan demand.  Loans, net of the allowance for loan
losses, increased $4,347,156 during the three month period ended March 31,
1996.  The Bank continues to experience increases in loan demand since the
hiring of two senior lending officers from two local financial institutions
during the second quarter of 1995.  Management believes that most of these
additional deposits are with individuals and businesses within the Bank's local
market area and with whom or which the Bank has had consistent deposit
relationships.  The Bank does not solicit brokered deposits.  However, because
these additional deposits resulted from the Bank's decision to increase its
rates on deposits, management believes that these deposit relationships may not
remain with the Bank if the Bank does not continue to pay market or above
market rates on the deposits.

Deposit funds in excess of those needed to support loan growth were allocated
to purchases of investment securities and to federal funds sold, which
increased from $2,880,000 at December 31, 1995 to $5,710,000 at March 31, 1996.
Investment securities available-for-sale increased $2,233,045 during the first
quarter of 1996.  The Statement of Cash Flows shows the Bank had $3,489,523 in
available-for-sale securities to be sold or mature during the first quarter of
1996, while the Bank purchased $5,734,047 of available-for-sale securities. The
Bank also had one held-to-maturity security to mature during the first quarter
of 1996 in the amount of $200,000.

The Bank's increase in earning assets, coupled with the faster repricing of
earning assets than interest-bearing liabilities in an increasing interest rate
environment, resulted in an increase in the Company's net interest income for
the first three months of 1996 as compared to the first three months of 1995.
Net interest income for the three month period ended March 31, 1996, increased
30.12% to $1,274,590, as compared to $979,528 for the same period in 1995.  The
interest margin for the first three months of 1996  declined only slightly to
5.90%, as compared to 5.99% for the same three month period in 1995.

Other income increased to $132,496, from $90,189, for the three month periods
ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  Service charges on deposit
accounts increased to $113,311, up $23,597 or 26.31% from $89,714 during the
first quarter of 1996, as compared to the same period of 1995.  This is
primarily attributed to the increase in new accounts during the period.  Other
miscellaneous income increased to $20,152, compared to $470 for the three month
periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  This increase is due to
the closing of the Bank's permanent mortgage department during 1995.

Other expenses increased $138,651 to $839,056, from $700,405, for the three
month periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  Salaries and
employee benefits accounted for approximately $98,000 of this increase.
Management attributes this increase to the addition of two senior lending
officers and support staff brought on during the second quarter of 1995 as well
as salary increases given at the beginning of 1996.

ASSET QUALITY

Nonperforming assets (nonaccrual and restructured loans and real estate
acquired through foreclosure (OREO) declined to 1.45% of total loans and OREO
at March 31, 1996, compared to 1.63% at December 31, 1995.  This decline is
primarily attributable to increases in loans and decreases in non-accrual
loans.

     The loan portfolio is periodically reviewed to evaluate the outstanding
loans and to measure both the performance of the portfolio and the adequacy of
the allowance for loan losses.  This analysis includes a review of delinquency
trends, actual losses, and internal credit ratings.  Management's judgment as
to the adequacy of the allowance is based upon a number of assumptions about
future events which it believes to be reasonable, but which may or may not be
reasonable.  However, because of the inherent uncertainty of assumptions made
during the evaluation process, there can be no assurance that loan losses in
future periods will not exceed the allowance for loan losses or that additional
allocations to the allowance will not be required.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL ADEQUACY

The Bank's net loan to deposit ratio decreased by 4.82% at March 31, 1996, to
78.14%, as compared to 82.10% at December 31, 1995.  This change is a result of
the Bank maintaining a level of loan growth below the level of deposit growth.
During the first three months of 1996, deposits grew by more than $9.6 million
while gross loans increased by approximately $4.4 million.  The Bank's liquid
assets as a percentage of total deposits were 9.58% at March 31, 1996, compared
to 6.66% at December 31, 1995.  Management also analyzes the level of
off-balance sheet assets such as unfunded loan equivalents, liquid investments,
and available fund lines in an attempt to minimize the possibility that a
potential shortfall will exist.  Based on this analysis, management believes
that the Company has adequate liquidity to meet short-term operating
requirements.  However, no assurances can be given in this regard.

Shareholders equity increased 1.01% from December 31, 1995, to $8,216,995 at
March 31, 1996.  The capital of the Company and the Bank exceeded all
prescribed regulatory capital guidelines.  Regulations require that the most
highly rated banks maintain a minimum Tier l leverage ratio of 3% plus an
additional cushion of at least 1 to 2 percentage points.  Tier 1 capital
consists of common shareholders' equity, less certain intangibles.  The Bank's
Tier 1 leverage ratio was 7.83% at March 31, 1996, compared to 8.29% at
December 31, 1995, a decline which was due to growth in the Bank's assets.
Regulations require that the Bank maintain a minimum total risk-weighted
capital ratio of 8%, with one-half of this amount, or 4%, made up of Tier 1
capital.  Risk-weighted assets consist of balance sheet assets adjusted by risk
category, and off-balance sheet asset equivalents similarly adjusted.  At March
31, 1996, the Bank had a risk-weighted total capital ratio of 11.46%, compared
to 11.83% at December 31, 1995, and a Tier 1 risk-weighted capital ratio of
10.21%, compared to 10.58% at December 31, 1994.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES

At March 31,1996, the Bank had $13,124,465 in investment securities     
available-for-sale and $1,658,877 in securities held-to-maturity.  The net
unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities, net of deferred income taxes,
was $104,673 on March 31, 996.

Investment securities comprised approximately 15% and 14% of the Bank's assets
on March 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995, respectively.  The Bank invests
primarily in obligations of the United States or obligations guaranteed as to
principal and interest by the United States and other taxable and tax exempt
securities.  The Bank has included in its investment portfolio instruments
described as a derivative, primarily, structured note derivatives.  Structured
notes are debt securities whose cash flow characteristics depend on one or more
indexes.  Structured notes carry high credit ratings and are issued as
floating-rate instruments.  In a rising interest rate environment, the market
value of these securities can decrease due to the fact that the embedded
options, puts, calls, etc., become evident and in contrast to predictions.
The Bank, as shown on the cash flows statement, sold $1,239,523 in  investment
securities available for sale during the first quarter of 1996.  Of the
securities sold approximately $620,000 were structured notes, leaving $250,000
in the investment portfolio at March 31, 1996, classified as a structured note.
There can be no assurance that as interest rates change in the future the
amount of unrealized loss will not increase, but if these securities are held
until they mature and are repaid in accordance with their terms, these
principal losses will not be realized.  The Bank also engages in Federal Funds
transactions with its principal correspondent banks and primarily acts as a net
seller of such funds.  The sale of Federal Funds amounts to a short-term loan
from the Bank to another Bank.
