ITEM 2 - ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS
On July 25, 1996, Essex Savings Bank, F.S.B. (the "Bank"), the wholly-owned
thrift subsidiary of Essex Bancorp, Inc. (the "Registrant"), completed the
sale of the deposits and related assets of its Wilmington, Raleigh and
Greensboro, North Carolina branches (the "Branches") to Centura Bank, Inc.
("Centura") pursuant to the Branch Purchase and Deposit Assumption Agreement
dated April 11, 1996.
Deposits and related accrued interest assumed by Centura approximated $71.3
million and deposit loans and related accrued interest acquired by Centura
approximated $72,000. In connection with the sale of the Branches, the Bank
recognized a $700,000 gain on the sale of deposits, net of transaction costs.
The sale of the Branches required cash of $70.5 million, which was funded by
the sale of fixed-rate and adjustable-rate first mortgage loans and related
accrued interest with a carrying value approximating $62.2 million, as well
as the utilization of a portion of the Bank's excess liquidity.
Prior to the sale, there was no material relationship between the Registrant
or the Bank and Centura, nor between Centura and any affiliate, director, or
officer of the Registrant or the Bank, or any associate of any such director
or officer.

ESSEX BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA
CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 AND
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996
The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations for the year
ended December 31, 1995 and for the six months ended June 30, 1996 assume the
sale of the Branches occurred on January 1, 1995 and present loss from
continuing operations before nonrecurring charges or credits directly
attributable to the sale of the Branches. The pro forma adjustments present
the elimination of actual interest expense on deposits at the Branches,
actual service charges and fees on those deposits and actual operating
expenses directly associated with the Branches included in the Registrant's
historical consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December
31, 1995 and for the six months ended June 30, 1996. The pro forma
adjustments also present the elimination of interest income on loans sold and
cash equivalents liquidated to fund the sale of deposits at their January 1,
1995 levels. The loan portfolios assumed to be sold consist primarily of
loans serviced by others. Interest income and accretion of discount on these
portfolios are eliminated in their entirety. The elimination of interest
income on the remaining loans and cash equivalents is based on the average
yields of comparable assets for the year ended December 31, 1995 and for the
six months ended June 30, 1996.
(A) Elimination of interest income and accretion of discount on loan
portfolios sold to partially fund the sale of the Branches.
(B) Elimination of interest income on cash equivalents liquidated to
partially fund the sale of the Branches.
(C) Elimination of interest expense on deposits assumed by Centura.
(D) Elimination of service charges and fees associated with deposit accounts
assumed by Centura.
(E) Elimination of the nonrecurring impact of the sale of loans to partially
fund the sale of the Branches, which was included in the historical
statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1996.
(F) Elimination of operating expenses directly associated with the Branches.
(G) Loss per share was determined by dividing loss from continuing
operations by the weighted average number of shares of common stock
outstanding. Because the inclusion of common stock equivalents would
have an anti-dilutive effect on the primary loss per share calculation,
effectively decreasing the loss per share, they are not considered in
the computation.
