FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

SOUTHERN NATIONAL REPORTS RESULTS FOR FIRST QUARTER

  Winston-Salem, N.C.--Southern National Corporation reported a net loss of
$12.6 million for the first quarter ended March 31. The loss resulted from $88.0
million in pretax nonrecurring charges related to the merger between Southern
National and BB&T Financial Corporation, and $19.8 million in securities losses
resulting from a restructuring of the securities portfolio. The after-tax impact
of these charges was $70.5 million.

  The nonrecurring expenses include costs related to early retirements, contract
terminations and severance programs to accomplish the staff reductions necessary
as part of the merger, along with costs incurred to close 70 branches and
consolidate operating functions. The nonrecurring charges were largely as 
anticipated.  Any additional nonrecurring charges should be offset by a $12 
million gain on the sale of branches in a divestiture, which is expected to be 
consummated in the second quarter.

  Exclusive of nonrecurring charges and securities losses, Southern National
would have had net income after tax of $58.0 million, which is a 5.5% increase
over the first quarter of 1994 and represents a return on assets of 1.19% and a
return on common equity of 16.08%.

  In releasing earnings, John A. Allison, chairman and chief executive officer
of Southern National, said, "A merger of equals of this magnitude is an
extremely complex task; however, we are very pleased with the progress to date.
Employee morale is high and we have been able to maintain and enhance customer
relationships.

  "As might be expected, we have experienced increased competitive pressure
because of the visibility of this merger. A conscious decision has been made to
maintain customer relationships for the long-term good of the organization. This
decision has affected our net interest margins somewhat, which negatively
affected core earnings in the first quarter. Nonrecurring charges were largely 
in line with our preliminary expectations and the related cost savings are
expected to contribute approximately $65 - $68 million annually to future pretax
earnings.

  "We will continue to incur redundant operating expenses until the merger of
the two banking systems, which is scheduled for the end of May 1995. However, we
are very encouraged about the improvement in financial performance that should
result in the second half of 1995 and thereafter from lower levels of ongoing
expense.

  "There is no question that the combined organization will be more efficient
and have the opportunity to increase revenues through the cross sell of product
lines. In addition, Southern National has the largest deposit share in North
Carolina, the third largest share in South Carolina and a healthy presence in
Hampton Roads, Virginia. The combined management team is a strong and cohesive
group. Overall, the merger is clearly headed in the right direction."

  Southern National had consolidated assets of $19.9 billion, consolidated loans
of $13.4 billion and consolidated deposits of $14.5 billion at the end of March.
Through its subsidiaries in North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia,
Southern National currently operates 530 banking offices.

  All reported amounts have been restated to reflect the merger of Southern 
National Corporation and BB&T Financial Corporation on February 28, 1995, in a 
transaction accounted for as a pooling-of-interests and for the merger of BB&T 
with Commerce Bank on January 10, 1995, in a transaction also accounted for as a
pooling-of-interests.

  Common stock of Southern National Corporation is traded on the New York Stock
Exchange under the symbol SNB. The stock closed at $20.25 on April 19.
