NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 A summary of the significant accounting policies consistently applied in the
 preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements follows:

 1.  Principles of Consolidation
     ---------------------------

 The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Southern Crescent
 Financial Corp and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Southern Crescent Bank.  All
 significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.

 2.  Investments in Securities
     -------------------------

 The Company's investment securities, none of which are held for trading
 activities, are classified in two categories and accounted for as follows:

   Securities to be Held to Maturity - Bonds, notes and debentures for which the
   ---------------------------------                                            
   Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are reported
   at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts
   which are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the
   period to maturity.

   Securities Available for Sale - Securities available for sale consist of
   -----------------------------                                           
   bonds, notes, debentures, and certain equity securities not classified as
   securities to be held to maturity.

 Any declines in the fair value of individual held-to-maturity and available-
 for-sale securities below their cost that are other than temporary result in
 write-downs of the individual securities to their fair value.  The related
 write-downs would be included in earnings as realized losses.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED

                               September 30, 1996
                                  (Unaudited)



NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

 2.  Investments in Securities - Continued
     -------------------------------------

 Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of tax, on securities available for
 sale are reported as a net amount in a separate component of stockholders'
 equity until realized.

 Gains and losses on the sale of securities available for sale are determined
 using the specific-identification method.
 
 3.  Loans
     -----

 Loans are stated at the amount of unpaid principal, reduced by net unearned
 loan origination fees.  Fees for loan origination and commitments and related
 origination costs are deferred and recognized as an interest income yield
 adjustment over the terms of the loans by the interest method.  Interest income
 on commercial, amortized and consumer loans is primarily recognized based on
 the principal amounts outstanding.

 January 1, 1995, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
 Standards No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan.  The
 statement requires that impaired loans be valued based on the present value of
 expectant future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate,
 as the loan's observable market value or the fair value of the collateral of
 the loan is collateral dependent.  There was not a material effect on the
 Company's loan portfolio associated with adoption of this pronouncement.

 4.  Allowance for Loan Losses
     -------------------------

 An allowance for loan losses is established by provisions for losses on loans
 charged to expense.  The balance in the allowance for loan losses is based on
 management's analysis of the loan portfolio and loan commitments.  It reflects
 an amount which, in management's judgment, is adequate to provide for potential
 loan losses after giving consideration to the character of the loan portfolio,
 current economic conditions, past loan loss experience, specific problem loans,
 adequacy of the underlying collateral and other factors.

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

 4.  Allowance for Loan Losses - Continued
     -------------------------------------

 The Company extends credit to customers primarily in the southern portion of
 the Metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia area.  A substantial portion of the Company's
 loans are secured by real estate and business assets located in this area.
 Accordingly, the collectibility and collateral value of a substantial portion
 of the Company's loans are dependent on the economy in this area.

 5.  Premises and Equipment
     ----------------------

 Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.
 Depreciation is provided in amounts sufficient to relate the cost of
 depreciable assets to operations over their estimated service lives,
 principally on the straight-line basis.

 At September 30, 1996, premises and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation,
 consisted of the following:

Item 2:   Management's Discussion and Analysis of
           Financial Condition and Results of Operations
            SOUTHERN CRESCENT FINANCIAL CORP

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

Southern Crescent Financial Corp (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws
of the State of Georgia on April 27, 1989, for the purpose of becoming a bank
holding company.  The Company completed its initial offering in March of 1990
after selling a total of 600,000 shares and raising $6,000,000.  The Company's
subsidiary bank, Clayton National Bank (the "Bank") opened for business on March
8, 1990.

The Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Southside Bank and Trust in
1993.  Southside Bank and Trust operated two locations in south Fulton County.
The two offices of Southside operate along with the Morrow office of the Bank as
full service facilities.  The Bank changed its name to Southern Crescent Bank,
converted to a State chartered institution and surrendered its National charter
on November 12, 1993.

The Company reported net earnings for the third quarter of $481,619, compared
with $343,423, for the comparable quarter in 1995.  These increased earnings are
attributable principally to the increased volume of earnings assets in 1996, as
compared to 1995.  Net interest income was up by $265,636 (a 19.2% increase) for
the third quarter of 1996 over 1995. Net interest income was up $676,808 (a
18.1% increase) for the first nine months of 1996 over 1995.  Almost all of this
increase over the comparable period in 1995 was volume related.

The provision for income taxes in the third quarter of 1996 of $259,300, or 35%
of pre-tax income, was similar to the 35% provision in the comparable quarter in
1995.

The allowance for loan losses totaled $1,319,967, or 1.38% of loans, at
September 30, 1996, as compared to $1,317,120, or 1.77% of loans, at September
30, 1995.  Loans on nonaccrual were up by 46% at September 30, 1996, from
September 30, 1995.

The Company's total stockholders' equity was $9,677,370, or 7.1% of total assets
at September 30, 1996, as compared to $9,096,096, or 7.6% of total assets at
December 31, 1995.  The Company's ratios of Tier 1 capital to risk based assets,
total capital to risk based assets, and Tier 1 capital to total assets exceeded
regulatory requirements at September 30, 1996.

            SOUTHERN CRESCENT FINANCIAL CORP

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS - CONTINUED

During the second quarter of 1996, the Bank received regulatory approval to
establish a Denovo Branch Bank at 285 Jonesboro Road in McDonough, Georgia.
After, receiving this approval, the Bank acquired approximately one acre of land
at this address to be the future site of its first office in Henry County.  The
Bank also filed an application for a new branch location in Jonesboro, Georgia
in Clayton County with the intent of establishing a branch office scheduled to
open late third quarter of 1996.

The holding company, Southern Crescent Financial Corp, declared its first cash
dividend of $.25 per share on May 23, 1996 with a record date of June 7th
payable on June 30.  In addition, the Company declared a 5% stock dividend
payable on June 30.

The Company opened a branch office in Jonesboro, Georgia in September 1996.

The Company entered into a merger agreement with Eagle Bancshares, Inc., parent
company of Tucker Federal Bank on August 13, 1996.  The merger is expected to be
completed in the first quarter of 1997.  The proposed merger transaction is
described more fully in Form S-4, registration statement filed with the SEC on
October 23, 1996.

The management and Board of Directors continue to focus on the needs of our
communities and strive to develop a bank that can do its share to meet these
needs.  Our goal will continue to be the building of shareholder value through
long-term controlled growth and profitability.
