1.  Basis of Financial Statement Presentation.

The interim financial statements of Franklin Bancorporation, Inc. ("Franklin")
have been prepared pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and
reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which
were, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the
results of the periods presented.  Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted  accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.  Accordingly,
these unaudited statements should be read in conjunction with the audited
financial statements and related notes in Franklin's most current annual
report.  The current period's results of operations are not necessarily
indicative of results which ultimately may be achieved for the year.

2.  Securities.

At March 31, 1998, impaired loans totaled $704 thousand with a corresponding
valuation allowance of $381 thousand.  The loans deemed to be impaired were
primarily commercial loans.

For the quarter ended March 31, 1998, the average recorded investment in
impaired loans was approximately $961 thousand.  Had all of these loans
performed in accordance with their original terms, interest income of
approximately $44 thousand would have been recorded during the first three
months of 1998.  Franklin recognized $18 thousand in interest on impaired loans
during the quarter.

At March 31, 1998, Franklin had no other loans on non-accrual other than those
deemed to be impaired loans.  Loans 90 days or more past due which were still
accruing interest totaled $337 thousand.

Franklin National Bank, in the normal course of business, makes loans to
executive officers, directors and stockholders, as well as to companies and
individuals affiliated with those officers and directors.  In the opinion of
management, these loans are consistent with sound banking practices, are within
regulatory lending limits and do not involve more than normal risk of
collectibility.

Activity in such loans is summarized as follows:

ITEM 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.

MERGER ACTIVITY

On December 16, 1997, Franklin announced plans to be acquired in a tax-free
merger with BB&T Corporation ("BB&T") of Winston-Salem, North Carolina.  BB&T
is a multi-bank holding company with approximately $31.5 billion in assets
operating throughout the Carolinas and Virginia.  Franklin will become part of
BB&T's system of regional bank holding companies which emphasizes autonomy and
local decision-making.  The acquisition, which will be accounted for as a
pooling of interests, is expected to be completed on or about the end of the
second quarter of 1998.

FINANCIAL SUMMARY

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1998, increased by 25% to $1.72
million or $0.24 per share compared to $1.38 million or $0.20 per share for the
same period in 1997.  Returns on average assets and average equity for the
first  quarter of 1998 were 1.16% and 17.27%, respectively, compared to 1.21%
and 17.30% for the same period in 1997.

Contributing to the increase in earnings for the first quarter of 1998 were
improvements in net interest income and growth in service charges and other
fees.  The earnings improvement was partially offset by increases in loan loss
provisions, compensation and other non-interest expenses and income tax
expenses.

Franklin's total assets increased to $659 million at March 31, 1998 compared to
$647 million at December 31, 1997, an increase of $12 million or 2%.  In prior
years, Franklin's assets have typically declined slightly during the first
quarter after experiencing a significant increase during the fourth quarter of


                                  Page 9 of 15
<PAGE>   10



the preceding year. However, in 1998, Franklin was able to sustain and improve
slightly on its 1997 fourth quarter asset growth which totalled approximately
$140 million.  As compared to March 31, 1997, total assets increased 36% from
$485 million to $659 million.

The increase in assets during the first quarter of 1998 occurred primarily in
the loan and securities portfolios.  Loans outstanding at March 31, 1998
totaled $307 million, a 2% increase over loans at year end 1997 of $300
million.  Franklin's loan to deposit ratio, a key measure of liquidity, remains
conservative at 71% as compared to 70% on December 31, 1997.  In the opinion of
management, nearly all of the customer repurchase agreements represent stable
deposit relationships.  If added to deposits, Franklin's liquidity ratio would
be 50% as of both March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997.  In management's view,
these ratios indicate that Franklin is well positioned to fund future liquidity
needs.

Total securities were $190 million as of March 31, 1998, an increase of $11
million, or 6%, over total securities of $179 million at December 31, 1997.
Additions were made almost equally in the available-for-sale and the held-to-
maturity securities portfolios.

Total deposits and customer repurchase agreements were $610 million at March
31, 1998 compared to $604 million at December 31, 1997, representing an
increase of 1%.  Franklin's deposit mix at March 31, 1998 included $133 million
in non-interest bearing deposits, representing 22% of total deposits and
customer repurchase agreements, as compared to 23% at December 31, 1997.

Stockholders' equity at March 31, 1998 totaled $43 million compared to $39
million at December 31, 1997.  Book value per share of common stock on March
31, 1998 was $6.25 per share compared to $5.92 per share at December 31, 1997.
The increase in equity was attributable to the retention of earnings and new
shares issued through Franklin's stock option plans.

EARNINGS ANALYSIS

Net interest income
Net interest income is Franklin's primary source of earnings and represents the
difference between interest and amortized fee income generated from earning
assets and the interest expense paid on deposits and other interest bearing
liabilities.  Net interest income totaled $6.2 million for the first three
months



                                 Page 10 of 15
<PAGE>   11



of 1998 compared to $5.1 million for the same period of 1997, an increase of
22%.  The improvement in net interest income was primarily attributable to the
fact that volume increases in total average earning assets of $137 million
exceeded the volume increases of $107 million in total average interest-bearing
liabilities.

Total interest income increased $2.5 million, or 30%, to $10.8 million for the
first three months of 1998 as compared to $8.3 million for the same period of
1997, with 60%, or $1.5 million, of 1998's increase occurring in interest and
fees on loans.  Total average earning assets increased 31% to $571 million for
the three months ended March 31, 1998 as compared to $434 million for the three
months ended March 31, 1997.  Of that growth, 49% occurred in Franklin's loan
portfolio, its highest yielding asset, 42% occurred in short-term investments,
such as Federal funds sold, and 9% occurred in the securities portfolios.

Interest expense increased $1.4 million, or 43%, to $4.6 million for the first
three months of 1998 as compared to $3.2 million for the same period of 1997.
The increase is primarily due to volume increases in average interest bearing
liabilities which grew 33% to $435 million for the three months ended March 31,
1998 as compared to $327 million for the same period in 1997.

Expressed as a percentage of average earning assets, Franklin's net interest
margin for the three months ended March 31, 1998 decreased to 4.53% as compared
to 4.80% for the same period one year ago.  The decline is due to the growth in
Franklin's interest-bearing liabilities occurring in its highest-cost deposit
types, certificates of deposit and customer repurchase agreements, while a
significantly high percentage of growth in earning assets occurred in
Franklin's short-term investments, its lowest yielding asset.

Non-interest income
Non-interest income increased $115 thousand, or 22%, from $526 thousand for the
three months ending March 31, 1997 to $641 thousand for the same period ending
March 31, 1998.  The increases are a result of Franklin's growing customer base
as well as the continued expansion of commercial deposit product offerings,
such as cash management and payroll processing services, foreign currency
exchange and ATM services.





                                 Page 11 of 15
<PAGE>   12



Non-interest expense
Total non-interest expense of $3.8 million for the three months ended March 31,
1998 increased $557 thousand, or 17%, compared to $3.2 million for the same
period in 1997.  The components of this increase were as follows: compensation
and employee benefits of $180 thousand, or 32% of the increase; occupancy and
furniture and equipment expense of $19 thousand, or 4%; and other operating
expense of $358 thousand, or 64%.  The increase in compensation expense is
primarily due to overall salary and benefit increases deemed necessary by
management to attract and retain qualified personnel to more effectively manage
Franklin's growth.  The increase in other operating expenses is primarily due
to Franklin's community involvement efforts which include expansion of
charitable contributions and program sponsorships.

ASSET QUALITY

While asset quality continues to be strong, Franklin has deemed it prudent to
increase provisions for loan losses to $340 thousand for the three months ended
March 31, 1998 as compared to $130 thousand for the same period one year ago.
For the three months ended March 31, 1998, Franklin recognized net loan
charge-offs of $208 thousand, as compared to first quarter 1997 net loan
recoveries of $57 thousand.  At March 31, 1998, the allowance for loan losses
represented 1.41% of total loans as compared to 1.40% at December 31, 1997.

Non-performing assets decreased to $704 thousand at March 31, 1998 from $1
million at December 31, 1997, representing 0.23% of total loans on March 31,
1998 as compared to 0.35% of total loans on December 31, 1997. The allowance
for loan losses as a percentage of non-performing assets increased from 400% on
December 31, 1997 to 614% on March 31, 1998.  Management believes that all
major loan portfolio deficiencies have been identified and adequate reserves
have been established.

RECENT ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS

         Effective January 1, 1998, Franklin adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" which requires
all items that are required to be recognized under accounting standards as
components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is
displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements.
