REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS



The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Triangle Bancorp, Inc.
Raleigh, North Carolina

We have audited the supplemental consolidated balance sheets of Triangle
Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the related
supplemental consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders' equity,
and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31,
1997. These supplemental financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
supplemental financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The supplemental financial statements referred to above give retroactive effect
to the merger of Triangle Bancorp, Inc. and Guaranty State Bancorp on April 16,
1998, which has been accounted for as a pooling of interests as described in
Notes 1 and 2 to the supplemental consolidated financial statements. Generally
accepted accounting principles proscribe giving effect to a consummated business
combination accounted for by the pooling of interests methods in financial
statements that do not include the date of consummation. These financial
statements do not extend through the date of consummation; however, they will
become the historical consolidated financial statements of Triangle Bancorp.
Inc. and subsidiaries after financial statements covering the date of
consummation of the business combination are issued.

In our opinion, the supplemental financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of
Triangle Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and
the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 1997, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles applicable after financial statements
are issued for a period which includes the date of consummation of the business
combination.

1.  ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization and Nature of Operations

Triangle Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") is a bank holding company incorporated in
November 1991 under the laws of the State of North Carolina, with four wholly
owned subsidiaries, Triangle Bank ("Triangle") and Bank of Mecklenburg
("Mecklenburg"), (collectively, the "Banks"), Coastal Leasing LLC ("Coastal"),
and Triangle Capital Trust (the "Trust").

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company and its subsidiaries follow
generally accepted accounting principles and general practices within the
financial services industry. All amounts in tabular format are in thousands of
dollars unless otherwise noted. Following is a summary of the more significant
policies.

Basis of Presentation

The historical consolidated financial statements of the Company have been
restated to include the accounts and operations of Guaranty State Bancorp
("Guaranty") which was acquired and accounted for as a pooling of interests as
discussed in Note 2. These financial statements do not extend through the date
of consummation; however, they will become the historical consolidated financial
statements of Triangle Bancorp. Inc. and subsidiaries after financial statements
covering the date of consummation of the business combination are issued.

Principles of Consolidation

The supplemental consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Securities

The Company classifies its securities into three types as follows:

(a)  Securities  Held to  Maturity - Debt  securities  that the  Company has the
     positive  intent and  ability to hold to  maturity  which are  reported  at
     amortized cost,

(b)  Trading  Securities - Debt and equity  securities  that are bought and held
     principally  for the purpose of selling in the near term which are reported
     at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings, or

(c)  Securities  Available for Sale - Debt and equity  securities not classified
     as either  Securities  Held to  Maturity  or Trading  Securities  which are
     reported  at fair value,  with  unrealized  gains and losses  reported as a
     separate component of shareholders' equity.

     The  classification  of securities  is generally  determined at the date of
     purchase.  Gains  and  losses  on sales of  securities,  computed  based on
     specific identification of the adjusted cost of each security, are included
     in other income at the time of the sales.  Premiums  and  discounts on debt
     securities  are recognized in interest  income on the interest  method over
     the period to maturity.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(Continued)

Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses

Loans are stated at the amount of unpaid principal, reduced by an allowance for
loan losses, unearned discounts and net deferred loan origination fees and
costs. Interest on loans is calculated by using the simple interest method on
daily balances of the principal amount outstanding. Deferred loan fees and costs
are amortized to interest income over the contractual life of the loan using a
method that approximates the level yield method.

A loan is considered impaired, based on current information and events, if it is
probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of
principal and interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan
agreement. Uncollateralized loans are measured for impairment based on the
present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the original
contractual interest rate, while all collateral-dependent loans are measured for
impairment based on the fair value of the collateral. During 1997 and 1996 there
were no loans material to the consolidated financial statements that were
impaired as defined.

The Company uses several factors in determining if a loan is impaired. The
internal asset classification procedures include a thorough review of
significant loans and lending relationships and include the accumulation of
related data. This data includes loan payment status, borrowers' financial data
and borrowers' operating factors such as cash flows, operating income or loss,
etc.

The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses
charged to expense. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when
management believes that collection of the principal is unlikely. The allowance
is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb possible losses
on existing loans that may become uncollectible, based on evaluations of the
collectibility of loans and prior loan loss experience. The evaluations take
into consideration such factors as changes in the nature and volume of the loan
portfolio, overall portfolio quality, review of specific problem loans, and
current economic conditions and trends that may affect the borrowers' ability to
pay.

Income Recognition on Impaired and Nonaccrual Loans

Loans, including impaired loans, are generally classified as nonaccrual if they
are past due as to maturity or payment of principal or interest for a period of
more than 90 days, unless such loans are well-secured and in the process of
collection. Loans that are on a current payment status or past due less than 90
days may also be classified as nonaccrual if repayment in full of principal
and/or interest is in doubt.

Loans may be returned to accrual status when all principal and interest amounts
contractually due (including arrearages) are reasonably assured of repayment
within an acceptable period of time, and there is a sustained period of
repayment performance (generally a minimum of six months) by the borrower, in
accordance with the contractual terms of interest and principal.

Income Recognition on Impaired and Nonaccrual Loans (Continued)

While a loan is classified as nonaccrual and the future collection of the
recorded loan balance is doubtful, collections of interest and principal are
generally applied as a reduction to the principal outstanding, except in the
case of loans with scheduled amortizations where the payment is generally
applied to the oldest payment due. When the future collection of the recorded
loan balance is expected, interest income may be recognized on a cash basis. In
the case where a nonaccrual loan had been partially charged-off, recognition of
interest on a cash basis is limited to that which would have been recognized on
the recorded loan balance at the contractual interest rate. Receipts in excess
of that amount are recorded as recoveries to the allowance for loan losses until
prior charge-offs have been fully recovered.

Foreclosed Assets

Assets acquired as a result of foreclosure are valued at the lower of the
recorded investment in the loan or fair value less estimated costs to sell. The
recorded investment is the sum of the outstanding principal loan balance and
foreclosure costs associated with the loan. Any excess of the recorded
investment over the fair value of the property received is charged to the
allowance for loan losses. Any subsequent write-downs are charged against other
expenses.

Premises and Equipment

Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and
amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed by the straight-line
method based on estimated service lives of assets, or, for leasehold
improvements, over the terms of the related leases, if shorter.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are composed primarily of core deposit premiums and goodwill.
Amortization of core deposit premiums and goodwill is computed using the
straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of assets. Useful lives
range from 7 to 10 years for the core deposit premiums and from 3 to 15 years
for goodwill.

The Company evaluates intangible assets for potential impairment by analyzing
the operating results, trends and prospects of the Company. The Company also
takes into consideration recent acquisition patterns within the banking industry
and any other events or circumstances which might indicate potential impairment.

Interest Rate Swaps, Floors and Caps

Prior to being acquired by the Company, Mecklenburg used interest rate swaps,
floors and caps for interest rate risk management. These instruments were
designated as hedges of specific assets and liabilities when purchased. The net
interest payable or receivable on swaps, caps, and floors is accrued and
recognized as an adjustment to interest income or interest expense of the
related asset or liability. Premiums paid for purchased caps and floors were
amortized over the term of the related asset or liability. Upon the early
termination of swaps, floors and caps, the net proceeds received or paid,
including premiums, were deferred and included in other assets or liabilities
and amortized over the shorter of the remaining contract life or the maturity of
the related asset or liability.

Upon disposition or settlement of the asset or liability being hedged, deferral
accounting was discontinued and any related premium or change in fair value of
the hedge instrument was recognized in earnings. If the hedge instrument was
retained subsequent to the disposition or settlement of the underlying asset or
liability, it would be reassigned to specific assets or liabilities and any
change in fair value of the instrument recognized in earnings in connection with
the previous disposition of the underlying asset or liability would be recorded
as a purchase premium and amortized into interest income over the contract term
as a yield adjustment of the related asset or liability.

Income Taxes

The Company files a consolidated Federal income tax return. State income tax
returns are filed for each entity.

Deferred tax asset and liability balances are determined by application to
temporary differences of the tax rate expected to be in effect when taxes will
become payable or receivable. Temporary differences are differences between the
tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial
statements that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in future years.
The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in
the period that includes the enactment date.

Cash Flow

For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on
hand, amounts due from banks and Federal funds sold. Generally, Federal funds
are purchased and sold for one-day periods.

Reclassifications

Certain items included in the 1996 and 1995 financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to the 1997 presentation. These reclassifications have
no effect on the net income or shareholders' equity previously reported.

New Accounting Pronouncements

The Company will adopt Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No.
130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" on January 1, 1998. SFAS No. 130
establishes standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its
components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements.

The Company will adopt SFAS No. 131, "Disclosure About Segments of an Enterprise
and Related Information" on January 1, 1998. SFAS No. 131 specifies revised
guidelines for determining an entity's operating segments and the type and level
of financial information to be disclosed. The impact of adopting this statement
is not expected to be material to the Company's supplemental consolidated
financial statements.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of the Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
Extinguishments of Liabilities

The Company adopted SFAS No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of
Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities" on January 1, 1997. The
adoption of this pronouncement had no material effect on the Company's
supplemental consolidated financial statements.

2. MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS

On April 16, 1998 the Company completed the acquisition of Guaranty through the
issuance of 2.12 shares of the Company's common stock for each share of
Guaranty's outstanding common stock, or 1,888,481 shares. On October 2, 1997 the
Company completed the acquisition of Mecklenburg through the issuance of 1.50
shares of the Company's common stock for each share of the outstanding common
stock of Mecklenburg, or 3,277,602 shares. On October 31, 1997 the Company
acquired Coastal through the issuance of 487,500 shares of the Company's stock.
On October 24, 1996 the Company completed the merger of Granville United Bank
("Granville") with and into Triangle through the issuance of 2.63 shares of the
Company's common stock for each share of the outstanding common stock of
Granville, or 1,128,434 shares. These mergers were accounted for as poolings of
interests, however, due to materiality, Coastal was pooled for 1997 only.

        (1) Prior to Guaranty merger



Guaranty, prior to the merger with the Company, reported total income of $2.2
million, net interest income of $1.2 million and net income of $334,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 1998.

Mecklenburg and Coastal, prior to their merger with the Company, reported total
income of $15.9 million and $1.9 million, respectively, net interest income of
$4.3 million and $1.3 million, respectively, and net income of $1.8 million and
$166,000, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 1997.

In August 1997, Triangle acquired ten branches with approximately $195 million
in deposits and $61 million in loans; paid a premium of approximately $15.8
million and recorded $920,000 in goodwill. The deposit premium is being
amortized over ten years and the goodwill is being amortized over three years.
This acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and therefore, the results of
operations have been included in the supplemental consolidated financial
statements from the date of the acquisition.

The Trust Securities described in Note 9 were issued in anticipation of the 1997
branch acquisition.

See Note 21 to these supplemental consolidated financial statements for a
summary of branch acquisitions in 1997 and 1996.

9. CORPORATION OBLIGATED MANDITORILY REDEEMABLE CAPITAL SECURITIES

Corporation   obligated   manditorily   redeemable  capital  securities  ("Trust
Securities") aggregating $20,000,000 were issued in June 1997 through the Trust,
a statutory  business  trust  registered  in the State of Delaware.  These Trust
Securities  bear  interest  at the rate of 9.375% and have a maturity  of thirty
years.

The proceeds from the Trust Securities were used by the Trust to purchase junior
subordinated  debentures  of the Company with a yield and maturity  identical to
the Trust  Securities.  The  distribution  rate and  payment  dates of the Trust
Securities correspond to the distribution rate and interest payment dates of the
junior  subordinated  debentures,  which are the sole  assets of the Trust.  The
Company  has  irrevocably  and  unconditionally  guaranteed  all of the  Trust's
obligations under the Trust Securities,  but only to the extent of funds held by
the Trust.  The Trust  Securities are subject to mandatory  redemption in whole,
but not in part, upon repayment of the junior  subordinated  debentures at their
stated  maturity  or  upon  their  early  redemption.  The  junior  subordinated
debentures may be redeemed prior to their stated maturity upon the occurrence of
certain events or at the option of the Company on or after June 1, 2007.

11. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN

The Company maintains a 401(k) plan for its subsidiaries'  employees 21 years of
age or over with at least one year of service,  which covers  substantially  all
employees.  In 1997 neither  Mecklenburg nor Coastal  employees were included in
the Company's plan.  Under the plan,  employees may contribute from 2% to 15% of
compensation,  subject to an annual  maximum as  determined  under the  Internal
Revenue  Code.  Employees may elect for up to 25% of their  contributions  to be
invested in the Company's common stock. The Company matches, in contributions of
the Company's common stock, 100% of the employee's first 2% of contributions and
50% of the next 4% of  contributions.  Mecklenburg  also maintains a 401(k) Plan
which covers  substantially all employees.  Employees may contribute up to 6% of
their  salary with the  employer  matching  up to 6% of eligible  contributions.
Guaranty  maintains  a 401(K)  plan which  substantially  covers all  employees.
Employees may  contribute up to 15% of their eligible  compensation,  subject to
IRS Limitations.  The employer matches up to 5% of employee contributions and is
able to make  additional  directionary  contributions.  The Company  contributed
approximately  $704,000,  $580,000 and  $471,000 to the plans in 1997,  1996 and
1995, respectively.

The Company  maintains an Employee  Stock Purchase Plan (the "ESPP") that allows
employees to purchase stock of up to 10% of their  compensation  through payroll
deduction.  In May 1997 this plan was amended to allow the purchase of the stock
at a 15% discount for a six month period beginning July 1, 1997. The discount is
taken on the lower of the  market  price on July 1 or  December  31 with  shares
being issued out of authorized  but unissued  shares.  A total of 375,000 shares
have been authorized for the plan with 11,352 issued on January 1, 1998.

12. EARNINGS PER SHARE

15, 1998 and the dividend will be paid on June 30, 1998. All share and per share
information has been adjusted to reflect the stock split.

The Company has a Long-Term  Incentive  Plan which allows the Board of Directors
to award any combination of stock options, restricted stock and cash.

The  Company  has a  qualified  incentive  stock  option plan for the benefit of
certain of the Company's key officers and  employees and a  non-qualified  stock
option plan for directors and certain  officers (the "Stock Option Plans").  The
Stock Option Plans expire on January 4, 1998, and as such, no new awards will be
made after that date.  Options under these plans are exercisable at no less than
fair market value at the date of grant and are subject to a prorated  five-year,
and  in  some  instances  three-year,   vesting  requirement.  The  options  are
exercisable as they vest and expire no later than ten years after that date.

On January 27, 1998, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the Triangle
Bancorp,  Inc. 1998 Omnibus Stock Plan. This plan,  which is subject to approval
by the shareholders of the Company,  reserves 1,000,000 shares for future grants
in the form of stock  options,  restricted  stock awards and stock  appreciation
rights,  the terms and  conditions  of which are to be determined at the date of
grant.  Incentive  options  under this plan will be granted at fair market value
and will have ten year lives.

On January 1, 1996 the Company adopted SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock Based
Compensation". As permitted by SFAS No. 123, the Company has chosen to continue
to apply APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25)
and related Interpretations. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been
recognized for options granted under the Stock Option Plans or the ESPP.

The pro  forma  effect  on net  income  and  earnings  per  share  of  recording
compensation  expense in accordance  with SFAS No. 123 is presented in the table

            NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

13. COMMON STOCK (Continued)

During 1997,  11,700 of the  Company's  warrants  were  exercised  leaving 6,300
remaining.  All the  warrants  have an  exercise  price of $6.11  and  expire on
December 31, 2000.

14. REGULATORY RESTRICTIONS

The Banks, as North Carolina banking corporations, may pay dividends only out of
undivided  profits as determined  pursuant to North  Carolina  General  Statutes
Section 53-87. However, regulatory authorities may limit payment of dividends by
any bank when it is determined  that such a limitation is in the public interest
and is necessary to ensure the financial soundness of the bank.

Under  regulations of the Federal  Reserve,  banking  affiliates are required to
maintain  certain minimum  average  reserve  balances which include both cash on
hand and deposits with the Federal Reserve.  These deposits are included in cash
and cash  equivalents in the accompanying  balance sheets.  At December 31, 1997
and 1996,  the  Banks  were  required  to  maintain  such  balances  aggregating
approximately $10,615,000 and $8,732,000, respectively.

The Company and the Banks are subject to various regulatory capital requirements
administered by the federal and state banking agencies.  Failure to meet minimum
capital  requirements can initiate certain  mandatory,  and possibly  additional
discretionary,  actions by regulators  that, if undertaken,  could have a direct
material effect on the consolidated  financial statements.  Management believes,
as of  December  31,  1997,  that the  Company  and the Banks  meet all  capital
adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

As of December  31, 1997 and 1996,  the most recent  notification  from the FDIC
categorized the Company and the Banks as well  capitalized  under the regulatory
framework for prompt  corrective  action.  To be categorized as well capitalized
the Banks must maintain  minimum  amounts and ratios,  as set forth in the table
below. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management
believes have changed the Company's or the Banks' category.

A summary of the Company's required and actual capital components follows:

16. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the
normal course of business to meet the financing  needs of its  customers.  These
financial  instruments include commitments to extend credit, lines of credit and
standby letters of credit.  These instruments involve elements of credit risk in
excess of amounts recognized in the accompanying financial statements.

The Company's risk of loss in the event of  nonperformance by the other party to
the commitment to extend credit,  line of credit and standby letter of credit is
represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. The Company uses the
same credit policies in making commitments under such instruments as it does for
on-balance  sheet  instruments.  The amount of collateral  obtained,  if any, is
based on management's  credit  evaluation of the  counterparty.  Collateral held
varies,  but may include accounts  receivable,  inventory,  real estate and time
deposits with financial institutions. Since many of the commitments are expected
to expire  without  being  drawn  upon,  the  total  commitment  amounts  do not
necessarily represent future cash requirements.

As of  December  31,  1997 and 1996,  outstanding  financial  instruments  whose
contract amounts represent credit risk were as follows:

                                               1997       1996

        Standby letters of credit             $ 3,446   $   4,668
                                            =========   =========

The Company's  lending is concentrated  primarily in North Carolina.  Credit has
been extended to certain of the Company's  customers  through  multiple  lending
transactions.

Mecklenburg  used  off-balance  sheet financial  contracts to assist in managing
interest  rate risk.  Instruments  used for this purpose  include  interest rate
swaps,  interest  rate caps and interest  rate floors.  Mecklenburg  managed the
counterparty  credit  risk  associated  with these  instruments  through  credit
approvals, limits and monitoring procedures.

For interest rate swaps,  interest rate caps and interest rate floors,  notional
principal amounts often are used to express the volume of transactions  however,
the amount  potentially  subject to credit risk is much smaller.  As of December
31, 1997, the aggregate notional  principal amount of all outstanding  financial
instrument contracts used for interest rate management totaled approximately $31
million. At December 31, 1997, the carrying amount of financial instruments used
for interest rate risk  management was  approximately  $17,000 and the estimated
market value was $33,000.

All these  instruments  involve,  to  varying  degrees,  elements  of credit and
interest  rate risk in  excess of the  amounts  recognized  in the  consolidated
financial  statements.   At  December  31,  1997,  off-balance  sheet  financial
instruments  and their  related  fair value  methods and  assumptions,  and fair

19. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

SFAS No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments",  requires
the disclosure of estimated fair values for financial instruments. Quoted market
prices, if available, are utilized as an estimate of the fair value of financial
instruments. Because no quoted market prices exist for a significant part of the
Company's  financial  instruments,  the fair value of such  instruments has been
derived  based on  management's  assumptions  with  respect  to future  economic
conditions,  the amount and timing of future cash flows and  estimated  discount
rates.   Different  assumptions  could  significantly  affect  these  estimates.
Accordingly,  the net  realizable  value could be materially  different from the
estimates  presented below. In addition,  these estimates are only indicative of
individual  financial  instruments'  values  and  should  not be  considered  an
indication of the fair value of the Company taken as a whole.

The  carrying  values  of cash  and due  from  banks,  Federal  funds  sold  and
interest-bearing deposits in banks are equal to the fair value due to the nature
of the financial  instruments.  The fair value of securities is estimated  based
upon bid quotations  received from various  securities  dealers.  Loans held for
sale are  considered  short term  assets  that are  carried  at market  value at
December  31,  1996.  The fair value of the  Company's  loans is  determined  by
discounting the scheduled cash flows through the loan's estimated maturity using
estimated  market  discount rates that most reflect the credit and interest rate
risk  inherent  in the loan.  The  estimate of maturity is based upon the stated
average maturity of management's  estimates of prepayments  considering  current
economic conditions and prevailing interest rates.

The   fair   value   of   deposits   with   no   stated   maturities,   such  as
noninterest-bearing  deposits,  interest  checking,  money  market  and  savings
accounts,  are equal to the amount payable as required by SFAS No. 107. The fair
value  of  time  deposits,  such  as  certificates  of  deposit  and  Individual
Retirement  Accounts,  are based on the discounted  contractual  cash flows. The
discount rate is estimated using rates currently offered for deposits of similar
maturities.

19. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)

Short-term  debt includes  repurchase  agreements  and Federal funds  purchased,
which  reprice  daily or monthly to allow for their  market value to equal their
carrying value.  The fair value of FHLB advances and the  corporation  obligated
manditorily   redeemable  capital  securities  were  determined  by  discounting
contractual cash flows using current rates for similar borrowings.

The  fair  value  of  off-balance  sheet  financial  instruments  has  not  been
considered  in  determining  on  balance  sheet  fair  value.  The fair value of
unfunded  loans and lines of credit and standby  letters of credit  approximates
the  stated  value  since  they are  either  short  term in nature or subject to
immediate repricing.

of December 31, 1997 and 1996:

21. YEAR 2000 ISSUE

The year 2000 issue is the result of computer  programs  being written using two
digits  rather than four to define the  applicable  year.  Any of the  Company's
computer programs that have  date-sensitive  software may recognize a date using
"00" as the year  1900  rather  than  the  year  2000.  The  Company  has made a
preliminary  assessment  of its  software  and  does  not  believe  it  has  any
significant systems that require modifications. An outside firm is undergoing an
extensive study of all of the Company's  internal and external  systems and this
is expected to be completed in 1998.  As such,  the costs of becoming  year 2000
compliant  cannot  be  estimated  at this  time.  Additionally,  there can be no
guarantee  that the systems of other  companies on which the  Company's  systems
rely will be timely converted, or that an inadequate conversion of a significant
loan customer would not have a material adverse effect on the Company.

22. PENDING ACQUISITIONS

On March 4, 1998,  Triangle  entered in an agreement to acquire  United  Federal
Savings Bank, Rocky Mount, North Carolina ("United Federal").  United Federal is
a  federally-chartered  savings  bank whose  deposits are insured by the Savings
Association Insurance Fund of the FDIC. At December 31, 1997, United Federal had
total assets of approximately $304 million.  The United Federal acquisition will
be accounted  for using the pooling of  interests  method of  accounting  and is
subject to the  approval of United  Federal's  shareholders  and all  applicable
regulatory agencies.  The transaction is expected to be consummated in the third
quarter of 1998.
