PART I
Item 1. Business
General
Coastal Financial Corporation ("Coastal Financial" or the
"Corporation") was incorporated in the State of Delaware in June 1990, for the
purpose of becoming a savings and loan holding company for Coastal Federal
Savings Bank ("Coastal Federal" or the "Bank"). On January 28, 1991, the
stockholders of the Bank approved a plan to reorganize the Bank into the holding
company form of ownership. The reorganization was completed on November 6, 1991,
on which date the Bank became the wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporation,
and the stockholders of the Bank became stockholders of the Corporation. Prior
to completion of the reorganization, the Corporation had no material assets or
liabilities and engaged in no business activities. On April 1, 1993 Coastal
Federal's investment in Coastal Investor Services, Inc., formerly named Coastal
Investment Services, Inc., was transferred to Coastal Financial and became a
first tier subsidiary of the Corporation. The financial results contained herein
relate primarily to the Corporation's principal subsidiary, Coastal Federal.
Coastal Federal was organized in 1953 as a mutual savings and loan
association and, since that time, its deposits have been federally insured. In
March 1989, Coastal Federal converted from a federally chartered mutual savings
and loan association to a federally chartered mutual savings bank. On October 4,
1990, Coastal Federal converted to the stock form of ownership ("Conversion")
through the sale and issuance of 492,541 shares of common stock at a price of
$10.00 per share, which resulted in gross proceeds to Coastal Federal of
$4,925,410.
Coastal Federal conducts its business from its main office in Myrtle
Beach, South Carolina, ten branch offices located in South Carolina, one branch
office located in Sunset Beach, North Carolina, and one branch office located in
Wilmington, North Carolina. The Bank expects to open an additional office in
Brunswick County and Horry County in its second fiscal quarter. At September 30,
2000, Coastal Financial had total assets of $768.8 million, total deposits of
$406.2 million and stockholders' equity of $46.9 million. The deposits of the
Bank are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") under the
Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF"). The corporate offices of the Bank
2
<PAGE>
are located at 2619 Oak Street, Myrtle Beach, South Carolina and the telephone
number is (843) 205-2000.
Eleven of Coastal Federal's thirteen offices are in Horry County, South
Carolina. The economy of the Horry County area depends primarily on tourism. To
the extent Horry County area businesses rely heavily on tourism for business,
decreased tourism would have a significant adverse effect on Coastal Federal's
primary deposit base and lending area. Moreover, Coastal Federal would likely
experience a higher degree of loan delinquencies should the local economy be
materially and adversely affected.
Coastal Federal's principal business currently consists of attracting
deposits from the general public and using these funds to originate conventional
one-to-four family first mortgage loans, consumer, commercial business loans and
commercial real estate loans. Commercial real estate loans were 24.7% of total
loans at September 30, 2000.
As part of its lending strategy, subject to market conditions,
management intends to continue emphasizing the origination of consumer and
commercial business loans in addition to first mortgage loans. At September 30,
2000, 4.3% and 8.5%, respectively, of the Bank's total loan portfolio consisted
of commercial business and consumer loans.

Average Balance Sheet
The following table sets forth certain information relating to the
Corporation's average balance sheet and reflects the average yield on assets and
average cost of liabilities for the periods indicated. Such yields and costs are
derived by dividing income or expense by the average balance of assets or
liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented. Average balances are
derived from month-end balances. Management does not believe that the use of
month-end balances instead of daily average balances has caused any material
difference in the information presented. Non-accrual loans are included in
average balance calculations.

Lending Activities
General. The principal lending activities of Coastal Federal are the
origination of residential one-to-four family mortgage loans, consumer loans,
commercial business loans and commercial real estate loans. The Bank originates
construction and permanent loans on single family and multi-unit dwellings, as
well as on commercial structures. The Bank emphasizes the origination of
adjustable rate residential and commercial real estate mortgages.
The Bank's loan portfolio totaled approximately $521.9 million at
September 30, 2000, representing approximately 67.9% of its total assets. On
that date, approximately 56.1% of Coastal Federal's total loan portfolio was
secured by mortgages on one-to-four family residential properties.
In an effort to ensure that the yields on its loan portfolio and
investments are interest-rate sensitive, the Bank has implemented a number of
measures, including: (i) emphasis on origination of adjustable rate mortgages on
residential and commercial properties; (ii) origination of construction loans
secured by residential properties, generally with terms for a one-year period;
and (iii) origination of commercial and consumer loans having either adjustable
rates or relatively short maturities. At September 30, 2000, adjustable rate
loans constituted approximately $384.4 million (or 73.7%) of the Bank's total
loan portfolio. Therefore, at such date, fixed rate loans comprised only 26.3%
of the total loan portfolio. These lending practices were adopted to shorten the
term of the Bank's assets and make the loan portfolio more responsive to
interest rate volatility.

<PAGE>
Single Family Residential Loans. The Bank actively originates
conventional loans to enable borrowers to purchase existing homes or residential
lots, refinance existing mortgage loans or construct new homes. Mortgage loans
originated by the Bank are generally long-term loans, amortized on a monthly
basis, with principal and interest due each month. The contractual loan payment
period for single family residential loans typically range from 15 to 30 years.
The Bank's experience indicates that real estate loans remain outstanding for
significantly shorter periods than their contractual terms. Borrowers may
refinance or prepay loans at their option, subject to any prepayment penalty
provisions included in the note. The Bank generally requires mortgage title
insurance on all single family residential mortgage loans.
The Bank offers adjustable rate mortgage loans ("ARMs"), the interest
rates of which generally adjust based upon either the prime rate or treasury
securities indices. The interest rates on ARMs generally may not adjust more
than 2% per year and 6% over the life of the loan. Based upon market conditions,
the Bank may originate ARMs at below the fully phased-in interest rate but
generally qualifies borrowers for one-year and three-year ARMS at 2% above the
initial rate when the loan to value ratio exceeds 70%. Monthly payments could
increase significantly at the first repricing period. Although Coastal Federal's
ARMs are beneficial in helping Coastal Federal improve the interest rate
sensitivity of its assets, such loans may pose potential additional risks to
Coastal Federal. Should interest rates continue to increase, certain of the
Bank's adjustable rate loans may reach their lifetime interest rate change cap.
At September 30, 2000, $3.8 million of the Bank's adjustable rate loans were
within 200 basis points of their cap. A precipitous increase in interest rates
could be expected to result in an increase in delinquencies or defaults on such
loans. Whereas a significant decrease in rates could cause repayments to
increase significantly.
Coastal Federal also offers one-to-four family residential loans with
fixed rates of interest. These loans generally can be sold in the secondary
market or are portfolio loans where the Bank offers such loans at rates
approximately 1% above conforming loan rates. Loans sold to correspondents
amounted to $24.8 million and $13.4 million, respectively, in fiscal 1999 and
2000. Coastal Federal sold approximately $36.0 million and $20.3 million,
respectively, of mortgages in 1999 and 2000 to FHLMC. In addition, Coastal
Federal securitized and sold mortgages to FHLMC of $27.7 million and $14.9
million in 1999 and 2000, respectively.
8
<PAGE>
At September 30, 2000, approximately $292.7 million or 56.1% of the
Bank's loan portfolio consisted of one-to-four family residential loans.
Construction Loans. The Bank originates construction loans on
single-family residences that generally have a term of six to twelve months for
individuals or one year for builders. The individual's loans are generally tied
to a commitment by the Bank to provide permanent financing upon completion of
construction. The interest rate charged on construction loans is indexed to the
prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal or current permanent loan
rate and varies depending on the terms of the loan and the loan amount. The Bank
customarily requires personal guaranties of payment from the principals of the
borrowing entities.
The interest rate on commercial real estate construction loans
presently offered by the Bank is indexed to either the U.S. Treasury securities
or the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal. Commercial real
estate construction financing generally exposes the lender to a greater risk of
loss than long-term financing on improved, occupied real estate, due in part to
the fact that the loans are underwritten on projected rather than historical,
income and rental results. The Bank's risk of loss on such loans depends largely
upon the accuracy of the initial appraisal of the property's value at completion
of construction and the estimated cost (including interest) of completion. If
either estimate proves to have been inaccurate and the borrower is unable to
provide additional funds pursuant to his guaranty, the lender either may be
required to advance funds beyond the amount originally committed to permit
completion of the development and/or be confronted at the maturity of the loan
with a project whose value is insufficient to assure full repayment. Coastal
Federal generally provides a permanent financing commitment on commercial
properties at the time the Bank provides the construction financing.
The Bank's underwriting criteria are designed to evaluate and to
minimize the risks of each commercial real estate construction loan. The Bank
considers evidence of the financial stability and reputation of both the
borrower and the contractor, the amount of the borrower's cash equity in the
project, independent evaluation and review of the building costs, local market
conditions, pre-construction sale and leasing information based upon evaluation
of similar projects and the borrower's cash flow projections upon completion.
The Bank generally requires personal guaranties of payment by the principals of
any borrowing entity.
9
<PAGE>
At September 30, 2000, approximately $54.9 million or 10.5% of the
Bank's gross loan portfolio consisted of construction loans on both residential
($18.0 million) and commercial properties ($36.9 million). Undisbursed proceeds
on these loans amounted to $13.3 million at September 30, 2000.
Commercial Real Estate Loans. The Bank may invest, by OTS regulation,
in non-residential real estate loans up to 400% of its capital as computed under
GAAP plus general loan loss reserves. At September 30, 2000, this limited
Coastal Federal's aggregate non-residential real estate loans to approximately
$223.5 million. At such date, the Bank had non-residential real estate loans
outstanding of $133.6 million. The Bank will maintain a level of these loan
types within the guidelines set forth. The commercial real estate loans
originated by the Bank are primarily secured by shopping centers, office
buildings, warehouse facilities, retail outlets, hotels, motels and multi-family
apartment buildings. The interest rate of the commercial real estate loans
presently offered by the Bank generally adjusts every one, three or five years
and is indexed to U.S. Treasury securities. Such loans generally have a fifteen
to twenty year term, with the payments based up to a similar amortization
schedule. The Bank may require the loan to include a call option at the Bank's
option in five to ten years. The Bank generally requires that such loans have a
minimum debt service coverage of 120% of projected net operating income together
with other generally accepted underwriting criteria.
Commercial real estate lending entails significant additional risks
compared to residential lending. Commercial real estate loans typically involve
large loan balances to single borrowers or groups of related borrowers. The
payment experience of such loans is typically dependent upon the successful
operation of the real estate project. These risks can be significantly affected
by supply and demand conditions in the market for office and retail space and
for apartments and, as such, may be subject, to a greater extent, to adverse
conditions in the economy. In dealing with these risk factors, Coastal Federal
generally limits itself to a real estate market or to borrowers with which it
has experience. The Bank concentrates on originating commercial real estate
loans secured by properties located within its market areas of Horry County,
Georgetown County, all within South Carolina and Brunswick and New Hanover
Counties, North Carolina. Additionally, the Bank has, on a limited basis,
originated commercial real estate loans secured by properties located in other
parts of North and South Carolina.
Consumer Loans. The Bank is permitted by OTS regulations to invest up
to 35% of its assets in consumer loans. The Bank currently offers a wide variety
of consumer loans on a secured and unsecured basis including home improvement
10
<PAGE>
loans, loans secured by savings accounts and automobile, truck and boat loans.
The Bank also offers a revolving line of credit secured by owner-occupied real
estate. Total consumer loans, including equity lines of credit generally secured
by one-to-four family residences, amounted to $46.1 million, or 8.5% of the
total loan portfolio, at September 30, 2000.
Coastal Federal has marketed consumer loans in order to provide a wider
range of financial services to its customers. These loans also have a shorter
term and normally higher interest rates than residential real estate loans.
Consumer loans entail greater risk than do residential mortgage loans,
particularly in the case of consumer loans which are unsecured or secured by
assets which may depreciate rapidly, such as automobiles. In the latter case,
repossessed collateral for a defaulted consumer loan may not provide an adequate
source of repayment of the outstanding loan and the remaining deficiency often
does not warrant further substantial collection efforts against the borrower. In
addition, consumer loan collections are dependent on the borrower's continuing
financial stability and, thus, are more likely to be adversely affected by job
loss, divorce, illness or personal bankruptcy. Furthermore, the application of
various federal and state laws, including federal and state bankruptcy and
insolvency laws, may limit the amount recoverable on such loans. Such loans may
also give rise to claims and defenses by the borrower against Coastal Federal as
the holder of the loan, and a borrower may be able to assert claims and defenses
which it has against the seller of the underlying collateral.
Commercial Business Loans. The Bank is permitted under OTS regulations
to make secured or unsecured loans for commercial, corporate, business or
agricultural purposes, including the issuance of letters of credit secured by
real estate, business equipment, inventories, accounts receivable and cash
equivalents. The aggregate amount of such loans outstanding may not exceed 20%
of such institution's assets.
Coastal Federal has been making commercial business loans since 1983 on
both a secured and unsecured basis with terms which generally do not exceed one
year. The majority of these loans have interest rates which adjust with changes
in the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal. The Bank's non-real
estate commercial loans primarily consist of short-term loans for working
capital purposes, seasonal loans and lines of credit. The Bank customarily
requires a personal guaranty of payment by the principals of any borrowing
11

entity and reviews the financial statements and income tax returns of the
guarantors. At September 30, 2000, the Bank had $23.4 million outstanding in
commercial business loans, which represented approximately 4.3% of its loan
portfolio.
Commercial business lending is inherently riskier than residential
mortgage lending and involves risks that are different from those associated
with residential and commercial real estate lending. Real estate lending is
generally considered to be collateral based lending with loan amounts based on
predetermined loan to collateral values and liquidation of the underlying real
estate collateral is viewed as the primary source of repayment in the event of
borrower default. Although commercial business loans are often collateralized by
equipment, inventory, accounts receivable or other business assets, the
liquidation of collateral in the event of a borrower default is often not a
sufficient source of repayment because accounts receivable may be uncollectible
and inventories and equipment may be obsolete or of limited use, among other
things. Accordingly, the repayment of a commercial business loan depends
primarily on the creditworthiness of the borrower (and any guarantors), while
liquidation of collateral is a secondary and potentially insufficient source of
repayment.

Loan Solicitation and Processing. The Bank actively solicits mortgage
loan applications from existing customers, walk-ins, referrals and from real
estate brokers. Commercial real estate loan applications also are obtained by
direct solicitation by loan officers.
Detailed loan applications are obtained to determine the borrower's
ability to repay, and the more significant items on these applications are
verified through the use of credit reports, financial statements and
confirmations through verification forms. After analysis of the loan application
and property or collateral involved, including an appraisal of the property by
independent appraisers approved by the Bank's Board of Directors and reviewed by
the Bank's underwriter, a lending decision is made by the Bank. With respect to
commercial loans, the Bank also reviews the capital adequacy of the business,
the ability of the borrower to repay the loan and honor its other obligations
and general economic and industry conditions. All loan applications over
$500,000 require the approval by a member or members, depending on loan size, of
the Bank's Internal Loan Committee, Director Gerald and Executive Vice
Presidents Rexroad and Stalvey. All loan applications greater than $2,000,000
require the approval of the Bank's Loan Committee which consists of Directors
Clemmons, Gerald, Thompson and Executive Vice Presidents Rexroad and Stalvey.
All first mortgage loan applications in excess of 80% of the lesser of appraised
value or purchase price of the property, unless the borrowers have private
mortgage insurance, must be approved by a member of the Bank's Loan Committee.
Loan applicants are promptly notified of the decision of the Bank by a
letter setting forth the terms and conditions of the decision. If approved, such
terms and conditions include the amount of the loan, interest rate, amortization
term, a brief description of real estate to be mortgaged to the Bank and notice
of requirement of insurance coverage necessary to protect the Bank's interest in
the collateral.
The Bank's general policy is to obtain a title insurance policy
insuring that the Bank has a valid lien on the mortgaged real estate and that
the property is free of encumbrances. Borrowers must also obtain paid hazard
insurance policies prior to closing and, when the property is in a flood plain
as designated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, obtain paid flood
insurance policies. It is the policy of Coastal Federal to require flood
insurance for the full insurable value of the improvements for any such loan
located in a designated flood hazard area. Borrowers on loans which exceed 80%
of the value of the security property are also required to advance funds on a
monthly basis, with each payment of principal and interest, to a mortgage escrow
14
<PAGE>
account from which the Bank makes disbursements for items such as real estate
taxes, hazard insurance premiums and private mortgage insurance premiums. In
cases of flood insurance, it is the Bank's policy to require escrow on these
premiums regardless of the loan-to-value ratio.
Loan Originations, Purchases and Sales. The Bank is qualified to
service loans for FHLMC and FNMA. Depending upon interest rates and economic
conditions, the Bank has sold loans in order to provide additional funds for
lending, to generate servicing fee income, and to decrease the amount of its
long-term, fixed rate loans in order to minimize the gap between the maturities
of its interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The Bank
generally continues to collect payments on the loans, to supervise foreclosure
proceedings, if necessary, and to otherwise service the loans. The Bank retains
a portion of the interest paid by the borrower on the loans as consideration for
its servicing activities. At September 30, 2000, the Bank was servicing loans
sold to others with a principal balance of approximately $106.1 million. Sales
of whole loans and participation interests by the Bank are made without right of
recourse to the Bank by the buyer of the loans in the event of default by the
borrower. At September 30, 2000, the Bank's consolidated loan portfolio included
purchased loans of approximately $23.3 million, which have been primarily
secured by single family residences and which have been written as adjustable
rate mortgage loan instruments. These loans are generally secured by properties
located in the Southeast and were purchased according to the Bank's
non-conforming mortgage loan underwriting standards.

Loan Commitments. The Bank, upon the submission of a loan application,
generally provides a 45-day written commitment as to the interest rate
applicable to such loan. If the loan has not been closed within 45 days, the
rate may be adjusted to reflect current market conditions at the Bank's option.
Loans which require closing time in excess of 45 days from the date of
application are issued a written commitment, with a term ranging from three to
six months. For fixed rate loans, the Bank either charges a higher interest rate
on the loan or may charge up to one point to lock in the rate for 180 days. At
September 30, 2000, the Company had residential loan origination commitments of
approximately $4.3 million.
Loan Origination and Other Fees. Coastal Federal may receive loan
origination fees and discount "points." Loan fees and points are a percentage of
the principal amount of the mortgage loan which are charged to the borrower for
funding the loan. Coastal Federal allows the purchaser to reduce the rate of
interest by the payment of points at the customers' options. Fees on long-term
commercial real estate and residential construction loans vary with loan type.
Delinquencies. Coastal Federal's collection procedures provide for a
series of contacts with delinquent borrowers. If the delinquency continues, more
formal efforts are made to contact the delinquent borrower. If a residential
real estate loan continues in a delinquent status for 90 days or more, Coastal
Federal generally initiates foreclosure proceedings. Coastal Federal generally
initiates foreclosure proceedings on a commercial real estate loan if the loan
continues in a delinquent status for 60 days or more. In certain limited
instances, however, Coastal Federal may modify the loan or grant a limited
moratorium on loan payments to enable the borrower to reorganize his financial
affairs.
Problem Assets and Asset Classification. Loans are reviewed on a
regular basis and a reserve for uncollectible interest is established on loans
where collection of interest is questionable, generally when such loans become
90 days delinquent. Loan balances that relate to interest amounts reserved are
considered to be on a nonaccrual basis. Typically, payments received on a
nonaccrual loan are applied to the outstanding principal and interest as
determined at the time of collection of the loan.

In fiscal years 1998, 1999 and 2000, interest income which would have
been recorded was approximately $181,000, $46,000 and $220,000, respectively,
had nonaccruing loans been current in accordance with their original terms. At
September 30, 2000, impaired loans totaled $1.4 million and consisted primarily
of two commercial loans. There were no impaired loans at September 30, 1999.
Included in the allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2000 was $345,000
related to impaired loans. The average recorded investment in impaired loans for
the year ended September 30, 2000 was $1.5 million. No interest income was
recognized on impaired loans in fiscal 2000.
18

The allowance for uncollectible interest which is netted against
accrued interest receivable totaled $70,000 and $242,000 at September 30, 1999
and 2000, respectively.
The OTS has adopted various changes in its regulations regarding
problem assets of savings institutions. OTS regulations require that each
insured institution review and classify its assets on a regular basis. In
addition, in connection with examinations of insured institutions, OTS examiners
have authority to identify problem assets and, if appropriate, require them to
be classified. There are four classifications for problem assets: special
mention, substandard, doubtful and loss. Substandard assets must have one or
more defined weaknesses and are characterized by the distinct possibility that
the insured institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not
corrected. Doubtful assets have the weaknesses of substandard assets with the
additional characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in
full on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values
questionable, and there is a high possibility of loss. An asset classified loss
is considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuance as an
asset of the institution is not warranted. The regulations also have a special
mention category, described as assets which do not currently expose an insured
institution to a sufficient degree of risk to warrant classification but do
possess credit deficiencies or potential weaknesses deserving management's close
attention. Assets classified as substandard or doubtful require the institution
to establish general allowances for loan losses. If an asset or portion thereof
is classified loss, the insured institution must either establish specific
allowances for loan losses in the amount of 100% of the portion of the asset
classified loss or charge off such amount. A portion of general loss allowances
established to cover possible losses related to assets classified substandard or
doubtful may be included in determining an institution's regulatory capital,
while specific valuation allowances for loan losses generally do not qualify as
regulatory capital.
Coastal Federal had seven individual classified assets in excess of
$750,000 as of September 30, 2000. At that date, classified assets amounted to
$18.5 million ($7.7 million substandard; $278,000 doubtful; and $10.6 million
special mention). Substandard assets consist primarily of ten commercial real
estate loans with aggregate balances of approximately $5.5 million at September
30, 2000. Special mention assets consist primarily of eight commercial real
estate loans with aggregate balances of approximately $9.9 million at September
30, 2000.
Allowance for Loan Losses. In making loans, the Bank recognizes the
fact that credit losses will be experienced and that the risk of loss will vary
19
<PAGE>
with, among other things, the type of loan being made, the creditworthiness of
the borrower over the term of the loan and, in the case of a secured loan, the
quality of the security for the loan.
The Bank's management evaluates the need to establish allowances for
losses on loans and other assets each year based on estimated losses on specific
loans and on any real estate held for sale or investment when a finding is made
that a significant decline in value has occurred. Such evaluation includes a
review of all loans for which full collectibility may not be reasonably assured
and considers, among other matters, the estimated market value of the underlying
collateral of problem loans, prior loss experience, economic conditions and
overall portfolio quality. Additions to the allowance for losses are charged
against earnings in the year they are established. The Bank established
provisions for losses on loans for the years ended September 30, 1998, 1999 and
2000 of $865,000, $750,000 and $978,000, respectively. As a result, the Bank has
a $7.1 million allowance for loan losses as of September 30, 2000. The allowance
as a percentage of loans receivable was 1.35% at September 30, 2000 compared to
1.36% at September 30, 1999. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis -
Non-Performing Assets and - Allowance for Loan Losses" in the 2000 Annual Report
to Stockholders attached hereto and incorporated by reference.
While the Bank believes it has established its existing allowance for
loan losses in accordance with GAAP at September 30, 2000, there can be no
assurance that regulators, when reviewing the Bank's loan portfolio in the
future, will not request the Bank to significantly increase its allowance for
loan losses, thereby adversely affecting the Bank's financial condition and
earnings.

Investment Activities
Under OTS regulations, the Bank has authority to invest in various
types of liquid assets, including U.S. Treasury obligations, securities of
various federal agencies and of state and municipal governments, deposits at the
FHLB of Atlanta, certificates of deposit of federally insured institutions,
certain bankers' acceptances and federal funds. Subject to various restrictions,
such savings institutions may also invest a portion of their assets in
commercial paper, corporate debt securities and mutual funds, the assets of
which conform to the investments that federally chartered savings institutions
are otherwise authorized to make directly. These institutions are also required
to maintain minimum levels of liquid assets which vary from time to time. See
"Regulation of Coastal Federal - Federal Home Loan Bank System." The Bank may
decide to increase its liquidity above the required levels depending upon the
availability of funds and comparative yields on investments in relation to
return on loans.
Coastal Federal is required under federal regulations to maintain a
minimum amount of liquid assets and is also permitted to make certain other
securities investments. See "Regulation" herein and "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and
Capital Resources" in the Annual Report. The balance of the Bank's investments
in short-term securities in excess of regulatory requirements reflects
management's response to the significantly increasing percentage of deposits
with short maturities.
Investment decisions are made by the Investment Officer who reports
quarterly to the Asset/Liability Committee ("ALCO committee"). The ALCO
Committee meets quarterly and consists of Directors Creel, Bishop, Thompson,
Clemmons and Gerald, and Executive Vice Presidents Graham, Rexroad, Sherry and
Stalvey and Vice President Loehr. The ALCO Committee acts within policies
established by the Board of Directors. At September 30, 2000, the Bank's
investment portfolio had a market value of approximately $197.8 million. The
investment securities portfolio consisted primarily of U.S. Government agency
securities and mortgage-backed securities. For further information concerning
the Bank's securities portfolio, see Notes 2 and 3 of the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements attached hereto and incorporated by reference.

(1) First tier operating subsidiary of Coastal Federal Savings Bank consolidated
with Coastal Federal Savings Bank for regulatory reporting. On December 10, 1998
Coastal Federal exchanged its stock of Coastal Real Estate Investment
Corporation for 100% of the outstanding stock of Coastal Federal Holding
Corporation.
26
<PAGE>
On November 2, 1995, Coastal Financial purchased Granger-O'Harra
Mortgage, Inc. ("Granger-O'Harra") and merged Granger-O'Harra into a new
subsidiary, Coastal Federal Mortgage, Inc. Coastal Federal Mortgage, Inc.
engaged in the origination of conforming mortgage loans which are sold in the
secondary market, generally on a servicing released basis. During fiscal 1999,
Coastal Federal Mortgage's operations were discontinued. Consequently, the
Bank's mortgage banking function was expanded.
On May 7, 1996, the Corporation formed Coastal Technology Services,
Inc. ("CTS"). CTS's activities for fiscal 2000 were immaterial to the
consolidated financial condition and results of operations of Coastal Financial.
On February 20, 1998, Coastal Real Estate Investment Corporation
("CREIC") was incorporated in North Carolina. CREIC is a wholly owned operating
subsidiary of Coastal Federal Holding Corporation ("CFHC") and is a real estate
investment trust ("REIT"). CREIC engages in the investment and management of
real estate related assets, primarily mortgage loans. On September 1, 1998,
CREIC was capitalized with approximately $131.8 million of mortgage loans from
Coastal Federal. On December 10, 1998, CREIC became a wholly owned subsidiary of
CFHC through an exchange of stock transaction.
On June 25, 1998, Coastal Federal Holding Corporation was incorporated
in the state of Delaware. CFHC is a wholly owned subsidiary of Coastal Federal
Savings Bank ("CFSB") and is a passive investment company ("PIC"). All of CFHC's
consolidated operating activities are consolidated into Coastal Federal Savings
Bank. CFHC engages in the management of its investment in CREIC and the
management of the related dividends received on that investment.
Deposit Activities and Other Sources of Funds
General. Deposits and loan repayments are the major source of Coastal
Federal's funds for lending and other investment purposes. Loan repayments are a
relatively stable source of funds, while deposit inflows and outflows and loan
prepayments are significantly influenced by general interest rates and money
market conditions. Borrowings may be used to compensate for reductions in the
availability of funds from other sources. They may also be used for general
business purposes.
Deposit Accounts. Deposits are attracted from within Coastal Federal's
primary market area through the offering of a broad selection of deposit
instruments, including NOW checking accounts, money market accounts, regular
statement savings and passbook accounts, certificates of deposit and retirement
savings plans. In addition, Coastal Federal also issues certificate accounts
originated by brokers for a fee. Included in certificate accounts were $31.8
27
<PAGE>
million of brokered deposits at September 30, 2000. Deposit account terms vary,
according to the minimum balance required, the time periods the funds must
remain on deposit and the interest rate, among other factors. In determining the
terms of its deposit accounts, Coastal Federal considers the rates offered by
its competition, profitability to Coastal Federal, matching deposit and loan
products and its customer preferences and concerns. Coastal Federal generally
reviews its deposit mix and pricing at least monthly.

Borrowings. Demand and time deposits are the primary source of funds
for Coastal Federal's lending and investment activities and for its general
business purposes. The Bank has in the past, however, relied upon advances from
the FHLB of Atlanta to supplement its supply of lendable funds and to meet
deposit withdrawal requirements. The FHLB of Atlanta has served as one of the
Bank's primary borrowing sources. Advances from the FHLB of Atlanta are
typically secured by the Bank's first mortgage loans. At September 30, 2000,
Coastal Federal had advances totaling $225.2 million from the FHLB of Atlanta
due on various dates through 2008 with a weighted average interest rate of
6.44%.
30
<PAGE>
The FHLB of Atlanta functions as a central reserve bank providing
credit for financial institutions and certain other member financial
institutions. As a member, Coastal Federal is required to own capital stock in
the FHLB of Atlanta and is authorized to apply for advances on the security of
such stock and certain of its mortgage loans and other assets (principally
securities which are obligations of, or guaranteed by, the United States)
provided certain standards related to creditworthiness have been met. Advances
are made pursuant to several different programs. Each credit program has its own
interest rate and range of maturities. Depending on the program, limitations on
the amount of advances are based either on a fixed percentage of an
institution's net worth or on the FHLB's assessment of the institution's
creditworthiness. The FHLB of Atlanta determines specific lines of credit for
each member institution.
In addition to the borrowing described above, the Bank, from time to
time, has borrowed funds under reverse repurchase agreements pursuant to which
it sells securities (generally secured by government securities and
mortgage-backed securities) under an agreement to buy them back at a specified
price at a later date. These agreements to repurchase are deemed to be
borrowings collateralized by the securities sold. At September 30, 2000, the
Bank had $72.0 million in broker repurchase agreements. The Bank has also
offered repurchase agreements to its customers which are borrowings that are
collateralized by underlying government securities. At September 30, 2000, the
Bank had $3.8 million outstanding in customer repurchase agreements.
The following tables set forth certain information regarding short-term
borrowings by the Bank at the end of and during the periods indicated:

Competition
The Bank faces strong competition in the attraction of deposits (its
primary source of lendable funds) and in the origination of loans. Its most
direct competition for deposits and loans has historically come from other
financial institutions located in its primary market area. The Bank estimates
that there are over 70 offices of other financial institutions in its primary
market area. Particularly in times of high interest rates, the Bank has faced
additional significant competition for investors' funds from short-term money
market securities and other corporate and government securities. The Bank's
competition for loans comes principally from other financial institutions,
mortgage banking companies and mortgage brokers.
Personnel
As of September 30, 2000, the Company had 214 full-time Associates and
21 part-time Associates. The Associates are not represented by a collective
bargaining unit. The Bank believes its relationship with its Associates is
excellent.
32
<PAGE>
REGULATION AND SUPERVISION
General
As a savings and loan holding company, the Corporation is required by
federal law to file reports with, and otherwise comply with, the rules and
regulations of the OTS. The Bank is regulated, examined and supervised
extensively by the OTS, as its primary federal regulator, and the FDIC, as the
deposit insurer. The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank System and
its deposit accounts are insured up to applicable limits by the Savings
Association Insurance Fund managed by the FDIC. The Bank must file reports with
the OTS and the FDIC concerning its activities and financial condition in
addition to obtaining certain approvals before entering into certain
transactions such as mergers with, or acquisitions of, other savings
institutions. The OTS and the FDIC examine the Bank periodically to test the
Bank's safety and soundness and compliance with various regulatory requirements.
This regulation and supervision establishes a comprehensive framework for the
Bank's activities and is intended primarily to protect the insurance fund and
the Bank's depositors.
The regulatory structure also gives regulatory authorities extensive
discretion in their supervisory and enforcement activities and examination
policies, including policies regarding asset classification and the
establishment of adequate loan loss reserves for regulatory purposes. Any change
in regulatory requirements and policies, whether by the OTS, the FDIC or the
Congress, could have a material adverse impact on the Corporation, the Bank and
their operations. The description of statutory provisions and regulations that
apply to the Corporation and the Bank discussed below and elsewhere in this
prospectus is not a complete description of them and their effects on the Bank
and the Corporation.
Holding Company Regulation
The Corporation is a nondiversified unitary savings and loan holding
company under federal law. Formerly, a unitary savings and loan holding company
was not restricted as to the types of business activities in which it could
engage, provided that its subsidiary savings association continued to be a
qualified thrift lender. See "-Federal Savings Institution Regulation -
Qualified Thrift Lender Test." Recent legislation, however, restricts unitary
savings and loan holding companies not existing or applied for before May 4,
33
<PAGE>
1999 to activities permissible for a financial holding company as defined under
the legislation, including insurance and securities activities, and those
permitted for a multiple savings and loan holding company, as described below.
The Corporation qualifies for the grandfather.
A savings and loan holding company is prohibited from, directly or
indirectly, acquiring more than 5% of the voting stock of another savings
institution or savings and loan holding company and from acquiring or retaining
control of a depository institution that is not insured by the FDIC, unless it
first receives the approval of the OTS. In evaluating applications by holding
companies to acquire savings institutions, the OTS considers the financial and
managerial resources and future prospects of the holding company and the
institution involved, the effect of the acquisition on the risk to the deposit
insurance funds, the convenience and needs of the community and competitive
factors.
The OTS may not approve any acquisition that results in a multiple
savings and loan holding company controlling savings institutions in more than
one state. However, there are two exceptions to this general rule. First, the
approval of interstate supervisory acquisitions by savings and loan holding
companies. Second, the acquisition of a savings institution in another state if
the laws of the state of the target savings institution specifically permit the
acquisition. The states vary in the extent to which they permit interstate
savings and loan holding company acquisitions.
Although savings and loan holding companies do not have specific
capital requirements or specific restrictions on the payment of dividends or
other capital distributions, federal regulations place these restrictions on
subsidiary savings institutions as described below. The Bank must notify the OTS
30 days before declaring any dividend to the Corporation. In addition, the
financial impact of a holding company on its subsidiary institution is a matter
that is evaluated by the OTS, which has authority to order the stoppage of
activities or divestiture of subsidiaries deemed to pose a threat to the safety
and soundness of the institution.
Federal Savings Institution Regulation
Business Activities. The activities of federal savings institutions are
governed by federal law and regulations. These laws and regulations delineate
the nature and extent of the activities in which federal associations may
34
<PAGE>
engage. In particular, many types of lending authority for federal association
are limited to a specified percentage of the institution's capital or assets.
Capital Requirements. The OTS capital regulations require savings
institutions to meet three minimum capital standards: a 1.5% tangible capital
ratio, a 3% leverage ratio and an 8% risk-based capital ratio. However, the
minimum leverage ratio increased to 4% for all institutions except those with
the highest rating on the CAMELS financial institution rating system. In
addition, the prompt corrective action standards discussed below also establish,
in effect, a minimum 2% tangible capital standard, a 4% leverage ratio (3% for
institutions receiving the highest rating on the CAMELS financial institution
rating system) and, together with the risk-based capital standard itself, a 4%
Tier 1 risk-based capital standard. The OTS regulations also require that, in
meeting the tangible, leverage and risk-based capital standards, institutions
must generally deduct investments in and loans to subsidiaries engaged in
activities as principal that are not permissible for a national bank.
The risk-based capital standard requires an institution to maintain
Tier 1 or core capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 4% and total capital
to risk-weighted assets of at least 8%. Total capital is defined as core capital
and supplementary capital. In determining the amount of risk-weighted assets,
all assets, including certain off-balance sheet assets, are multiplied by a
risk-weight factor of 0% to 100%, assigned by the OTS capital regulation based
on the risks believed inherent in the type of asset. Core or Tier 1 capital is
defined as common stockholders' equity and retained earnings, certain
noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and related surplus, and minority
interests in equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, less intangibles
other than certain mortgage servicing rights and credit card relationships. The
components of supplementary capital include cumulative preferred stock,
long-term perpetual preferred stock, mandatory convertible securities,
subordinated debt and intermediate preferred stock, and the allowance for loan
and lease losses limited to a maximum of 1.25% of risk-weighted assets. Overall,
the amount of supplementary capital included as part of total capital cannot
exceed 100% of core capital.
The capital regulations also incorporate an interest rate risk
component. Savings institutions with "above normal" interest rate risk exposure
are subject to a deduction from total capital for purposes of calculating their
risk-based capital requirements. Presently, the OTS has deferred implementation
35
<PAGE>
of the interest rate risk component. At September 30, 2000, the Bank met each of
its capital requirements. See Note 12 to Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements for further information.
Prompt Corrective Regulatory Action. The OTS is required to take
certain supervisory actions against undercapitalized institutions, the severity
of which depends upon the institution's degree of undercapitalization.
Generally, a savings institution that has a ratio of total capital to risk
weighted assets of less than 8%, a ratio of Tier 1 or core capital to
risk-weighted assets of less than 4%, or a ratio of core capital to total assets
of less than 4%, or 3% or less for institutions with the highest examination
rating, is considered to be "undercapitalized." A savings institution that has a
total risk-based capital ratio less than 6%, a Tier 1 capital ratio of less than
3% or a leverage ratio that is less than 3% is considered to be "significantly
undercapitalized" and a savings institution that has a tangible capital to
assets ratio equal to or less than 2% is deemed to be "critically
undercapitalized." Although there is a narrow exception, the OTS is required to
appoint a receiver or conservator for an institution that is "critically
undercapitalized" if the institution is critically undercapitalized on average
during the calendar quarter 270 days after becoming critically undercapitalized.
The regulation also provides that an institution must file a capital restoration
plan with the OTS within 45 days of the date that the OTS notifies it that it is
"undercapitalized," "significantly undercapitalized" or "critically
undercapitalized." Compliance with the plan must be guaranteed by any parent
holding company. In addition, numerous mandatory supervisory actions immediately
apply to an undercapitalized institution, including, but not limited to,
increased monitoring by regulators and restrictions on growth, capital
distributions and expansion. The OTS could also take any one of a number of
discretionary supervisory actions, including issuing a capital directive and
replacing senior executive officers and directors.
Insurance of Deposit Accounts. Deposits of the Bank are presently
insured by the Savings Association Insurance Fund. The FDIC maintains a
risk-based assessment system by which institutions are assigned to one of three
categories based on their capitalization and one of three subcategories based on
examination ratings and other supervisory information. An institution's
assessment rate depends upon the categories to which it is assigned. Assessment
rates for Savings Association Insurance Fund member institutions are determined
semiannually by the FDIC and currently range from zero basis points for the
healthiest institutions to 27 basis points for the riskiest.
36
<PAGE>
The FDIC may terminate an institution's deposit insurance if it finds
that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices, is in an unsafe
or unsound condition to continue operations or has violated any applicable law,
regulation, rule, order or condition imposed by the FDIC or the OTS. The
management of the Bank does not know of any practice, condition or violation
that might lead to termination of its deposit insurance.
Financial Institution Modernization Legislation. Recently enacted
federal legislation (Gramm-Leach Bliley Act) designed to modernize the
regulation of the financial services industry expands the ability of bank
holding companies to affiliate with other types of financial services companies
such as insurance companies and investment banking companies. However, the
legislation provides that companies that acquire control of a single savings
association after May 4, 1999 (or that filed an application for that purpose
after that date) are not entitled to the unrestricted activities formerly
allowed for a unitary savings and loan holding company. Rather, these companies
will have authority to engage in the activities permitted "a financial holding
company" under the new legislation, including insurance and securities-related
activities, and the activities currently permitted for multiple savings and loan
holding companies, but generally not in commercial activities. The authority for
unrestricted activities is grandfathered for unitary savings and loan holding
companies, such as the Corporation, that existed before May 4, 1999. However,
the authority for unrestricted activities would not apply to any company that
acquired the Corporation.
Loans to One Borrower. Federal law provides that savings institutions
must generally follow the limits on loans to one borrower applicable to national
banks. A savings institution may not make a loan or extend credit to single or
related group of borrowers in excess of 15% of its unimpaired capital and
surplus. An additional amount may be lent, equal to 10% of unimpaired capital
and surplus, if secured by specified readily-marketable collateral. At September
30, 2000, the Bank's limit on loans to one borrower was approximately $8.4
million. The Bank may apply to have this amount increased to $16.8 million for
borrowers who have loans secured by residential collateral. At September 30,
2000, the Bank had applied for this limit increase for three borrowers with a
maximum approved aggregate exposure to the three borrowers of $27.9 million with
aggregate outstanding and committed exposure of $19.9 million. At September 30,
2000, the Bank's largest aggregate amount of loans to one borrower was $12.3
37
<PAGE>
million, all of which was performing according to their terms. The Bank had
received permission to increase the loan to one borrower limit on this borrower.
Qualified Thrift Lender Test. Federal law requires savings institutions
to meet a qualified thrift lender test. Under the test, a savings association is
required to either qualify as a "domestic building and loan association" under
the Internal Revenue Code or maintain at least 65% of its "portfolio assets" in
certain "qualified thrift investments" in at least 9 months out of each 12-month
period. "Portfolio Assets" equals total assets less specified liquid assets up
to 20% of total assets, intangibles, including goodwill, and the value of
property used to conduct business. "Qualified thrift investments" are primarily
residential mortgages and related investments, including certain mortgage-backed
securities.
A savings institution that fails the qualified thrift lender test faces
certain operating restrictions and may be required to convert to a commercial
bank charter. As of September 30, 2000, the Bank complied with the qualified
thrift lender test. Recent legislation has expanded the extent to which
education loans, credit card loans and small business loans may be considered
"qualified thrift investments."
Limitation on Capital Distributions. OTS regulations impose limitations
upon all capital distributions by a savings institution, including cash
dividends, payments to repurchase its shares and payments to stockholders of
another institution in a cash-out merger. The rule effective through the first
quarter of 1999 established three tiers of institutions based primarily on an
institution's capital level. A Tier I institution exceeded all capital
requirements before and after a proposed capital distribution and has not been
advised by the OTS that it needs more than normal supervision. A Tier I
institution could, after first giving notice to but without obtaining approval
of the OTS, make capital distributions during the calendar year equal to the
greater of 100% of its net earnings to date during the calendar year plus the
amount that would have reduced by one-half the excess capital over its capital
requirements at the beginning of the calendar year, or 75% of its net income for
the previous four quarters. Any additional capital distributions required prior
regulatory approval.
Effective April 1, 1999, the OTS's capital distribution regulation
changed. Under the new regulation, an application to and the prior approval of
the OTS is required before any capital distribution if the institution does not
meet the criteria for "expedited treatment" of applications under OTS
regulations (generally, compliance with all capital requirements and examination
38
<PAGE>
ratings in one of two top categories), the total capital distributions for the
calendar year exceed net income for that year plus the amount of retained net
income for the preceding two years, the institution would be undercapitalized
following the distribution or the distribution would otherwise be contrary to a
statute, regulation or agreement with OTS. If an application is not required,
the institution must still give advance notice to OTS of the capital
distribution. If the Bank's capital fell below its regulatory requirements or if
the OTS notified it that it was in need of more than normal supervision, the
Bank's ability to make capital distributions could be restricted. In addition,
the OTS could prohibit a proposed capital distribution, which would otherwise be
permitted by the regulation if the OTS determines that the distribution would be
an unsafe or unsound practice.
Liquidity. The Bank is required to maintain an average daily balance of
specified liquid assets equal to a monthly average of not less than a specified
percentage of its net withdrawable deposit accounts plus short-term borrowings.
This liquidity requirement is currently 4%, but may be changed from time to time
by the OTS to any amount within the range of 4% to 10%. Monetary penalties may
be imposed for failure to meet these liquidity requirements. The Bank met these
requirements at September 30, 2000.
Assessments. Savings institutions are required to pay assessments to
the OTS to fund the agency's operations. The general assessments, paid on a
semi-annual basis, are computed upon the savings institution's total assets,
including consolidated subsidiaries, as reported in the Bank's latest quarterly
thrift financial report. The Bank's assessments for the fiscal year ended
September 30, 2000 totaled $135,000.
Branching. OTS regulations permit federally chartered savings
associations to branch nationwide under certain conditions. Generally, federal
savings associations may establish interstate networks and geographically
diversify their loan portfolios and lines of business. The OTS authority
preempts any state law purporting to regulate branching by federal savings
associations.
Transactions with Related Parties. The Bank's authority to engage in
transactions with "affiliates" is limited by federal law. Generally, an
affiliate is any company that controls or is under common control with an
institution, including the Corporation. The aggregate amount of covered
transactions with any individual affiliate is limited to 10% of the capital and
surplus of the savings institution. The aggregate amount of covered transactions
39
<PAGE>
with all affiliates is limited to 20% of the savings institution's capital and
surplus. Certain transactions with affiliates are required to be secured by
collateral in an amount and of a type described in federal law. The purchase of
low quality assets from affiliates is generally prohibited. The transactions
with affiliates must be on terms and under circumstances, that are at least as
favorable to the institution as those prevailing at the time for comparable
transactions with non-affiliated companies. In addition, savings institutions
are prohibited from lending to any affiliate that is engaged in activities that
are not permissible for bank holding companies and no savings institution may
purchase the securities of any affiliate other than a subsidiary.
The Bank's authority to extend credit to executive officers, directors
and 10% stockholders, as well as entities within the control of these persons,
is governed by federal law. These persons are often referred to as "insiders" of
a company. Loans to insiders are required to be made on terms substantially the
same as those offered to unaffiliated individuals and may not involve more than
the normal risk of repayment. Recent legislation created an exception for loans
make pursuant to a benefit or compensation program that is widely available to
all employees of the institution and does not give preference to insiders over
other employees. The law limits both the individual and aggregate amount of
loans the Bank may make to insiders based, in part, on the Bank's capital
position and requires certain board approval procedures to be followed.
Enforcement. The OTS has primary enforcement responsibility over
savings institutions and has the authority to bring actions against the
institution and all institution-affiliated parties, including stockholders, and
any attorneys, appraisers and accountants who knowingly or recklessly
participate in wrongful action likely to have an adverse effect on an insured
institution. Formal enforcement action may range from the issuance of a capital
directive or cease and desist order, to removal of officers and/or directors, to
institution of a receivership or conservatorship, or to termination of deposit
insurance. Civil penalties cover a wide range of violations and can amount to
$27,500 per day, or even $1.2 million per day in especially serious cases. The
FDIC has the authority to recommend to the Director of the OTS that enforcement
action to be taken with respect to a particular savings institution. If action
40
<PAGE>
is not taken by the Director, the FDIC has authority to take action under
certain circumstances. Federal law also established criminal penalties for
certain violations.
Standards for Safety and Soundness. The federal banking agencies have
adopted Interagency Guidelines prescribing Standards for Safety and Soundness.
The guidelines set forth the safety and soundness standards that the federal
banking agencies use to identify and address problems at insured depository
institutions before capital becomes impaired. If the OTS determines that a
savings institution fails to meet any standard prescribed by the guidelines, the
OTS may require the institution to submit an acceptable plan to achieve
compliance with the standard.
Federal Home Loan Bank System
The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank System, which
consists of 12 regional Federal Home Loan Banks. The Federal Home Loan Bank of
Atlanta provides a central credit facility primarily for member institutions.
The Bank, as a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta, is required to
acquire and hold shares of capital stock in that Federal Home Loan Bank of
Atlanta in an amount at least equal to 1.0% of the aggregate principal amount of
its unpaid residential mortgage loans and similar obligations at the beginning
of each year, or 1/20 of its advances (borrowings) from the Federal Home Loan
Bank of Atlanta, whichever is greater. The Bank complied with this requirement
with an investment in Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta stock at September 30,
2000, of $11.9 million. Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta advances must be
secured by specified types of collateral.
The Federal Home Loan Banks are required to provide funds for the
resolution of insolvent thrifts in the late 1980s and to contribute funds for
affordable housing programs. These requirements could reduce the amount of
dividends that the Federal Home Loan Banks pay to their members and could also
result in the Federal Home Loan Banks imposing a higher rate of interest on
advances to their members. If dividends were reduced, or interest on future
Federal Home Loan Bank advances increased, the Bank's net interest income would
likely also be reduced. Recent legislation has changed the structure of the
Federal Home Loan Banks funding obligations for insolvent thrifts, revised the
capital structure of the Federal Home Loans Banks and implemented entirely
voluntary membership for Federal Home Loan Banks. Management cannot predict the
effect that these changes may have with respect to its Federal Home Loan Bank
membership.
41
<PAGE>
Federal Reserve System
The Federal Reserve Board regulations require savings institutions to
maintain non-interest earning reserves against their transaction accounts,
primarily NOW and regular checking accounts. The regulations generally require
that reserves be maintained against aggregate transaction accounts as follows:
for accounts aggregating $42.8 million or less, subject to adjustment by the
Federal Reserve Board, the reserve requirement is 3%; and for accounts
aggregating greater than $42.8 million, the reserve requirement is $1.284
million plus 10%, subject to adjustment by the Federal Reserve Board between 8%
and 14%, against that portion of total transaction accounts in excess of $42.8
million. The first $5.5 million of otherwise reservable balances, as adjusted by
the Federal Reserve Board, are exempted from the reserve requirements. The Bank
complies with the foregoing requirements.
Community Reinvestment Act
Under the Community Reinvestment Act, as implemented by OTS
regulations, a savings association has a continuing and affirmative obligation
consistent with its safe and sound operation to help meet the credit needs of
its entire community, including low and moderate-income neighborhoods. The
Community Reinvestment Act does not establish specific lending requirements or
programs for financial institutions nor does it limit an institution's
discretion to develop the types of products and services that it believes are
best suited to its particular community, consistent with the Community
Reinvestment Act. The Community Reinvestment Act requires the OTS, in connection
with its examination of an institution; to assess the institution's record of
meeting the credit needs of its community and to take such record into account
in its evaluation of applications by such institution. The Community
Reinvestment Act requires public disclosure of an institution's Community
Reinvestment Act rating. The Bank's latest Community Reinvestment Act rating
received for the OTS was "satisfactory."
TAXATION
Federal Taxation
General. The Corporation and the Bank report their income via a
consolidated return on a fiscal year basis using the accrual method of
accounting and are subject to federal income taxation in the same manner as
other corporations with some exceptions, including particularly the Bank's
42
<PAGE>
reserve for bad debts discussed below. The following discussion of tax matters
is intended only as a summary and does not purport to be a comprehensive
description of the tax rules applicable to the Bank or the Corporation.
Tax Bad Debt Reserves. For discussion related to the Bank's Tax Bad
Debt Reserves, please refer to Note 10 of the Company's Annual Report to
Stockholders for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2000.
Distributions. To the extent that the Bank makes "nondividend
distributions" to the Corporation that are considered as made: (i) from the
reserve for losses on qualifying real property loans, to the extent the reserve
for such losses exceeds the amount that would have been allowed under the
experience method; of (ii) from the supplemental reserve for losses on loans
("Excess Distributions"), then an amount based on the amount distributed will be
included in the Bank's taxable income. Nondividend distributions include
distributions in excess of the Bank's current and accumulated earnings and
profits, distributions in redemption of stock, and distributions in partial or
complete liquidation. However, dividends paid out of the Bank's current or
accumulated earnings and profits, as calculated for federal income tax purposes,
will not be considered to result in a distribution from the Bank's bad debt
reserve. Thus, any dividends to the Corporation that would reduce amounts
appropriated to the Bank's bad debt reserve and deducted for federal income tax
purposes would create a tax liability for the Bank. The amount of additional
taxable income attributable to an Excess Distribution is an amount that, when
reduced by the tax attributable to the income, is equal to the amount of the
distribution. Thus, if, the Bank makes a "nondividend distribution," then
approximately one and one-half times the amount so used would be includable in
gross income for federal income tax purposes, assuming a 35% corporate income
tax rate (exclusive of state and local taxes). See "Regulation" for limits on
the payment of dividends by the Bank. The Bank does not intend to pay dividends
that would result in a recapture of any portion of its tax bad debt reserve.
Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax. The Code imposes a tax on
alternative minimum taxable income ("AMTI") at a rate of 20%. Only 90% of AMTI
can be offset by net operating loss carryovers. AMTI is increased by an amount
equal to 75% of the amount by which the Bank's adjusted current earnings exceeds
its AMTI (prior to reduction for net operating losses).
43
<PAGE>
Dividends-Received Deduction and Other Matters. The Corporation may
exclude from its income 100% of dividends received from the Bank as a member of
the same affiliated group of corporations. The corporate dividends-received
deduction is generally 70% in the case of dividends received from unaffiliated
corporations with which the Corporation and the Bank will not file a
consolidated tax return, except that if the Corporation or the Bank owns more
than 20% of the stock of a corporation distributing a dividend, then 80% of any
dividends received may be deducted.
Audits. There have not been any audits of the Corporation's federal or
state income tax returns during the past five years.
State Income Taxation. South Carolina has adopted the Code as it
relates to savings and loan associations, effective for taxable years beginning
after December 31, 1985. Coastal Federal is subject to South Carolina income tax
at the rate of 6%. This rate of tax is imposed on savings associations in lieu
of the general state business corporation income tax.
For information regarding income taxes payable by Coastal Federal, see
Note 10 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
