Item 5. Other Events
The purpose of this Current Report on Form 8-K is to announce that BB&T
Corporation ("BB&T") has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Matewan
BancShares of Williamson, West Virginia, ("Matewan") and to file certain analyst
presentation materials related to this transaction as Exhibit 99.1.
Matewan, with $676 million in assets, operates 22 banking offices and
one mortgage loan office in southwestern Virginia, southern West Virginia and
eastern Kentucky. The transaction is a tax-free exchange of stock valued at
$157.9 million based on the February 23, 1999, closing price of BB&T's common
stock.
The transaction, approved by the directors of both companies, will give
Matewan shareholders .9333 BB&T shares per Matewan share, worth $33.89 based on
BB&T's closing price on February 23, 1999. The final exchange ratio will be
based on a pricing period prior to closing the transaction.
When the Matewan acquisition is completed, BB&T will have banking
offices in seven states and Washington, D.C.
Matewan customers will be introduced to a broad BB&T product line that
includes insurance, mutual funds, annuities, leasing, trust, retail brokerage
and investment banking.
Matewan operates through banking subsidiaries Matewan National Bank and
Matewan FSB. The corporation also owns insurance and investment subsidiaries.
Its market area includes Mingo, Logan, Boone, Lincoln and Wayne counties in West
Virginia; Pike, Floyd, Johnson, Martin and Letcher counties in Kentucky; and
Buchanan, Tazewell, Wise, Russell and Washington counties in Virginia.
The merger, which is subject to the approval of Matewan shareholders
and banking regulators, is expected to be completed in the third quarter of
1999.

Forward-Looking Information
BB&T has made forward-looking statements in the accompanying analyst
presentation materials that are subject to risks and uncertainties. These
statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of the management of BB&T,
and on the information available to management at the time the analyst
presentation materials were prepared. In particular, the analyst materials in
this report include statements regarding estimated earnings per share of BB&T on
a stand alone basis, expected cost savings from the merger, estimated
restructuring charges relating to the merger, estimated increases in Matewan's
fee income ratio, the anticipated accretive effect of the merger, and BB&T's
anticipated performance in future periods. With respect to estimated cost
savings and restructuring charges, BB&T has made assumptions about, among other
things, the extent of operational overlap between BB&T and Matewan, the amount
of general and administrative expense consolidation, costs relating to
converting Matewan's bank operations and data processing to BB&T's systems, the
size of anticipated reductions in fixed labor costs, the amount of severance
expenses, the extent of the charges that may be necessary to align the
companies' respective accounting reserve policies, and the cost related to the
merger. The realization of cost savings and the amount of restructuring charges
are subject to the risk that the foregoing assumptions are inaccurate.
Any statements in the accompanying exhibit regarding the anticipated accretive
effect of the merger and BB&T's anticipated performance in future periods are
subject to risks relating to, among other things, the following possibilities:
(1) expected cost savings from this merger or other previously-announced mergers
may not be fully realized or realized within the expected time frame; (2)
deposit attrition, customer loss or revenue loss following proposed mergers may
be greater than expected; (3) competitive pressure among depository and other
financial institutions may increase significantly; (4) costs or difficulties
related to the integration of the businesses of BB&T and its merger partners,
including Matewan, may be greater than expected; (5) changes in the interest
rate environment may reduce margins; (6) general economic or business
conditions, either nationally or regionally, may be less favorable than
expected, resulting in, among other things, a deterioration in credit quality,
or a reduced demand for credit; (7) legislative or regulatory changes, including
changes in accounting standards, may adversely affect the businesses in which
BB&T and Matewan are engaged; (8) adverse changes may occur in the securities
markets; and (9) competitors of BB&T and Matewan may have greater financial
resources and develop products that enable such competitors to compete more
successfully than BB&T and Matewan.
BB&T believes these forward-looking statements are reasonable; however, undue
reliance should not be placed on such forward-looking statements, which are
based on current expectations. Such statements are not guarantees of
performance. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. The future
results and shareholder values of BB&T following completion of the merger may
differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements. Many
of the factors that will determine these results and values are beyond
management's ability to control or predict.

Rationale for Acquisition
o BB&T has an announced strategy to pursue in-market
(Carolinas/Virginia/Maryland/Metro DC) and contiguous state (Georgia/West
Virginia/Tennessee) acquisitions of high quality banks and thrifts in the
$250 million to $10 billion range. The acquisition of Matewan is consistent
with this strategy.
o This acquisition is very consistent with past acquisitions which we have
successfully executed, i.e. it fits our model.
o BB&T and Matewan share similar cultures.
o Matewan's branch network overlaps BB&T's western Virginia franchise and
expands BB&T into the economically attractive markets in southern West
Virginia and eastern Kentucky.
14
<PAGE>
Strategic Objectives
o The key strategic objectives in this acquisition are:
- Improve efficiency
o Cost savings equal to 20% of MATE's noninterest expenses, fully realized in
the year 2000
- Expand and strengthen BB&T's existing western Virginia franchise
o Entry into the contiguous markets of southern West Virginia and eastern
Kentucky
- Grow fee income using BB&T's wider array of fee-based services
- Develop additional commercial relationships using BB&T's product
offerings

BB&T Investment Criteria
o EPS and Cash Basis EPS (accretive by year 2)
o Internal rate of return (15% or better)
o Return on equity and Cash Basis ROE (accretive by year 3)
o Return on assets and Cash Basis ROA (accretive by year 3)
o Book value per share (accretive by year 5)
o Must not cause combined leverage capital ratio to go below 7%
Criteria are listed in order of importance. There are sometimes trade-offs among
criteria.
21
<PAGE>
Assumptions
o BB&T's 1999 and 2000 EPS numbers are based on First Call estimates of $1.93
and $2.17 respectively, and subsequent years are based on 9% income
statement and balance sheet growth.
o $4.3 million in cost savings (20% of MATE's expense base). Cost savings
will be recognized over 2 years with 25% of total cost savings achieved in
1999 and the remaining 75% in 2000.
o Fee income improvement - MATE's fee income is assumed to grow by 15%
annually by leveraging BB&T's sales management system and expanded product
offerings.
o MATE's net interest margin (non-FTE) is maintained annually at 4.50%.
o For MATE, we have assumed income statement and balance sheet growth of 9%
annually except for the enhancements cited above.

of the sum of recurring net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis
and recurring noninterest income.

securities gains and losses and certain intangible assets as a percentage of
average assets for the most recent quarter less certain intangible assets.

portion of subordinated debt and a qualifying portion of the allowance for loan
and lease losses as a percentage of risk-weighted assets.

Internal Rate of Return - The interest rate that equates the present value of

shareholders.
Recurring Results or Ratios - earnings excluding charges and expenses
principally related to completing mergers and acquisitions.
Certain of the ratios discussed above may be annualized if the applicable
