                   VIRGINIA COMMONWEALTH FINANCIAL CORPORATION
     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
                                 OF OPERATIONS

THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION PROVIDES INFORMATION ABOUT THE MAJOR COMPONENTS OF THE
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES OF
VIRGINIA COMMONWEALTH FINANCIAL CORPORATION (THE COMPANY). THIS DISCUSSION AND
ANALYSIS SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTAL FINANCIAL DATA.

OVERVIEW

Virginia Commonwealth Financial Corporation's consolidated net income for the
quarter ended September 30, 1999 amounted to $1.13 million or $.56 per share,
compared to $1.06 million or $.52 per share for the quarter ended September 30,
1998. Earnings for the nine month period ended September 30, 1999 amounted to
$3.35 million or $1.64 per share, an increase of 3.2% over the $3.24 million or
$1.59 per share for the comparable period in 1998. The Company's annualized
return on average equity for the nine-month period ended September 30, 1999 was
10.76%, compared to 11.14% in 1998. The Company's annualized return on average
assets for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 was 1.25%, compared to 1.32%
for the comparative period in 1998.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income increased $364 thousand or 5.3% to $3.78 million for the
three months ended September 30, 1999. For the nine months ended September 30,
1999, net interest income increased $805 thousand or 7.8% to $11.1 million. This
improvement for the quarter and nine-month period can be attributed to an
increase in average earning assets and a slight improvement in the net interest
margin. Average earning assets increased $25.0 million to $332.8 million at
September 30, 1999, an increase of 4.9% over $317.1 million at September 30,
1998. The increase in average earning assets can be attributed to growth in
retail deposits, which were used to fund increases in loans receivable and
investment securities. Average interest bearing deposits at September 30, 1999
were $270.5 million, an increase of $19.2 million or 7.6% from $251.3 million at
September 30, 1998. The net interest margin for the nine months ended September
30, 1999 was 4.70%, slightly improved from 4.63% for the comparable period in
1998.

NONINTEREST INCOME

Noninterest income decreased $42 thousand to $629 thousand for the three months
ended September 30, 1999, a decrease of 6.3% over the comparative period in
1998. For the nine months ended September 30, 1999 noninterest income increased
$175 thousand or 9.3% to $2.1 million. Fees from trust services and deposit
relationships accounted for much of the increase. Loan fees generated through
the mortgage division decreased to $84 thousand during the quarter ended
September 30, 1999, compared to $154 thousand for the three months ended
September 30, 1998. This decrease can be attributed to a significant increase in
overall mortgage rates during the period. For the nine months ended September
30, 1999, fees from the mortgage division amounted to $364 thousand, a decrease
of $38 thousand from the $402 thousand generated for the comparable period in
1998.

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

NONINTEREST EXPENSE

Operating expenses increased $171 thousand, or 6.7% to $2.7 million for the
three months ended September 30, 1999, compared to $2.5 million for the same
period in 1998. Operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 1999
amounted to $8.1 million, an increase of $971 thousand or 13.6% over the
comparable period in 1998. Incremental compensation costs of $259 thousand for
the three month period and $757 thousand for the nine month period associated
with management additions, staff hiring for a new branch and staff hiring for
Virginia Commonwealth Trust Company account for much of this increase.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

SUMMARY

At September 30, 1999, the Company has total assets of $366.5 million, an
increase of $13.7 million or 3.9% from $352.8 million at December 31, 1998.
Deposit growth of $14.4 million, increasing deposits to $320.9 million at
September 30, 1999, was used to fund loan growth of $16.0 million, increasing
loans receivable to $228.3 million at September 30, 1999.

ASSET QUALITY

Nonperforming assets, consisting of non-accrual loans and other real estate
owned, amounted to $1.4 million or .39% of assets at September 30, 1999,
compared to $1.4 million or .39% of assets at December 31, 1998. The Company
recorded a provision for loan losses of $152 thousand for the three month period
ended September 30, 1999, compared to a provision of $170 thousand for the three
month period ended September 30, 1998. Provision for loan losses for the
nine-month period ended September 30, 1999 amounted to $485 thousand, compared
to $480 thousand for 1998. The allowance for loan losses at September 30, 1999
amounted to $2.622 million compared to $2.286 million at December 31, 1998. The
allowance for loan losses represents 220% of nonperforming loans and 1.13% of
gross loans receivable at September 30, 1999. Management feels that the
allowance is adequate to absorb any losses on existing loans receivable.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's capital base provides the resource and ability to support the
assets of the Company and provide capital for future expansion. Stockholders'
equity as of September 30, 1999 of $41.7 million increased $750 thousand or
approximately 1.8% from $41.0 million at December 31, 1998. The Company's Tier
I capital consists primarily of common stockholder's equity. Risk weighted
assets are determined by assigning various risk levels to each asset type. The
Company's Tier 1 risk based capital ratio was 17.2% at September 30, 1999,
compared to 17.4% at December 31, 1998, placing the Company in a well
capitalized position as defined by regulators.

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

Liquidity is identified as the ability to generate or acquire sufficient amounts
of cash when needed and at reasonable cost to accommodate withdrawals, payments
of debt, and increased loan demand. These events may occur daily or at other
short-term intervals in the normal operation of the business. Experience helps
management predict time cycles in the amount of cash required. In assessing
liquidity, management gives consideration to relevant factors including
stability of deposits, quality of assets, economy of market served,
concentrations of business and industry, competition, and the Company's overall
financial condition. The Company's primary sources of liquidity are cash, due
from banks, fed funds sold and securities in our available for sale portfolio.
In addition, the Bank has substantial lines of credit from its correspondent
banks and access to the Federal Reserve discount window and Federal Home Loan
Bank to support liquidity. The Company has no brokered deposits. In the judgment
of management, the Company maintains the ability to generate sufficient amounts
of cash to cover normal requirements and any additional needs which may arise.

SECOND QUARTER YEAR 2000 READINESS DISCLOSURE

The following is an update to management's discussion of Year 2000 preparedness
disclosures in the Company's Form 10K for the year ended December 31, 1998.

Testing

Core business systems mission-critical and non-mission critical: The inventory,
assessment, remediation and testing phases have all now been completed. The
Company has now placed 100% of remediated core business systems back into
production.

Contingency Business and Event Planning

Management is enhancing the Company's existing business resumption plans to
address various Year 2000 scenarios in the event that efforts to remediate these
systems are not fully successful or are not completed in accordance with current
expectations. Each line of business has significant involvement in the
preparation of Year 2000 contingency plans designed to address specific business
functions. The contingency plans include the use of third party service
providers, alternative sources for power and telecommunications, use of
alternative commercial vendors, alternative data security, redundant facilities
and other contingency service suppliers. Contingency planning for both
mission-critical systems and non-mission critical systems has been completed.
These plans will be amended as the Company continues to obtain information
relating to its own systems and the systems of its significant suppliers and
large clients. The Company will continually test and revise the contingency
plans as the Year 2000 approaches.

Information about the Company's Year 2000 Project, other than historical
information, should be considered forward looking in nature and subject to
various risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Statements regarding the
completion of testing for Year 2000 modifications are based on management's best
estimates, which were derived utilizing numerous assumptions of future events
including the continued availability of certain resources, third party
modification plans and other factors. However, there can be no assurance that
these estimates will be achieved and actual results could differ materially from
those plans. Specific factors that might cause such material differences
include, but are not limited to, the availability and cost of personnel trained
in this area, the ability to locate and correct all relevant computer codes, the
inability to control third party vendor and customer modification plans, the
ability of the Company to implement suitable contingency plans, Congressional
legislation, regulatory action and similar uncertainties.

                                 OF OPERATIONS

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 1998, FASB issued SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities." SFAS 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for
derivative financial instruments and other similar financial instruments
including hedging activities. While the effective date for implementation of
SFAS 133 has been delayed, management continues to evaluate the impact on the
consolidated financial statements of the Company.

EFFECTS OF INFLATION

The effect of changing prices on financial institutions is typically different
from other industries as the Company's assets and liabilities are monetary in
nature. Interest rates and thus the Company's asset liability management is
impacted by changes in inflation, but there is not a direct correlation between
the two measures. Management monitors the impact of inflation on the financial
markets.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

The statements contained in this report that are not historical facts may be
construed as forward looking statements. The forward-looking statements are
subject to certain risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to
differ materially from historical results or those anticipated. Readers are
cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.


ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no significant changes to the quantitative and qualitative
market risk disclosures in the Company's Form 10K for the year ended December
31, 1998.

ITEM 6.  EXHIBITS AND REPORTS ON FORM 8-K.

         (a)      Exhibits are not applicable.

         (b)      The Company filed a Form 8-K on September 28, 1999 announcing
                  that it had entered a definitive agreement to affiliate with
                  Caroline Savings Bank of Bowling Green, Virginia. The
                  agreement calls for the Registrant to be the continuing entity
                  and Caroline to become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
                  Registrant. The reorganization is expected to be completed in
                  the first quarter of 2000 and is subject to stockholder and
                  regulatory approval.
