     The Audit  Committee,  comprised of Dona Laskey,  Gary Boss, and W. Rickard
Scofield,   met  on  two  occasions   during  1998.   Its  primary   duties  and
responsibilities  include  annually  recommending  to the Board of  Directors an
independent  public accounting firm to be appointed  auditors of the Corporation
and the Bank,  reviewing  the scope and fees for the  audit,  reviewing  all the
reports  received from the  independent  public  accountants,  and  coordinating
matters with the internal auditing department.

     The  Nominating  Committee  of the  Board,  comprised  of  Messrs.  Burkel,
Rudisill,  Yost,  Scofield,  and Ms. Martin, met on three occasions during 1998.
This Committee is responsible for reviewing and making recommendations as to the
composition of the Board of Directors, to recommend nominees for election to the
Board and  recommends  individuals  to fill  vacancies  which may occur  between
annual meetings.  The Committee is authorized to consider Board  nominations for
qualified  persons  recommended by shareholders  that are in compliance with the
procedures set forth in the  Corporation's  Restated  Articles of Incorporation.
Any nomination must be submitted in writing, on or before the 60th day preceding
the anniversary date of the previous annual meeting. The nomination must include
a description of the proposed nominee, his or her consent to serve as a director
and other biographical data on the nominee.

     The Board also has a Compensation Committee comprised of Messrs.  Rudisill,
Scofield,  and Holkins.  This Committee met three times in 1998.  This Committee
approves  the  compensation  and benefits of senior  management  of the Bank and
Corporation.  The Board also has other committees, such as the Finance Committee
and the Executive Committee.

     The Board of  Directors  of the  Corporation  held a total of six  meetings
during  1998.  No director  attended  less than 75% of the  aggregate  number of
meetings of the Board of Directors and the committees on which he or she served.

executive officers of the Corporation.

     Directors are paid $250 for each Board meeting held and $250 for each Board
committee meeting attended;  however,  no fees are paid to employees of the Bank
who serve on the Board.  Members of the Board of  Directors of the Bank are paid

     (2)  For bonus  payments in 1998 the amounts  reflect only 75% of the bonus
          that  may  be  earned  for  that  year,  based  on  the  Corporation's
          performance  through  September  30 of that year.  The  balance of any
          bonus,  which is not  calculable  at this time,  will be  reported  in
          subsequent proxy statements and/or reports.

     (3)  Represents amounts contributed by the Bank as retirement benefits, for
          the Named  Executives,  in excess of the amounts  permitted  under the
          Bank's  401(k) Plan.

     (4)  Amounts  represent the aggregate value of restricted  shares of Common
          Stock (based upon the value of the stock on the date of grant)  issued
          to  the  Named   Executives   for  the   designated   year  under  the
          Corporation's  Long-Term  Incentive Plan. The 1998 award of restricted
          shares was based on a per share  value of $35.00,  as of July 1, 1998.
          The  shares are  subject  to  restrictions  on  transfer  and risks of
          forfeiture  which lapse over a period of 5 years at the annual rate of
          20% of the granted  shares,  subject to earlier  termination  of those
          restrictions  and risks upon death,  disability or a change in control
          of the Corporation. The named executives have no right to the unvested
          percentage  of the  restricted  shares,  except  voting rights and the
          right to all dividends and all other  distributions paid to holders of
          the common stock.  As of December 31, 1998, the Named  Executives held
          shares of  restricted  stock in the following  aggregated  amounts and
          values (based on the per share value of the Corporation's common stock
          on December 31, 1998, which equaled  $35.00):  Ms. Martin - 857 shares
          ($29,995);  Ms. Nelson - 285 shares  ($9,975);  Mr. Wibby - 220 shares
          ($7,700);  and  Mr.  Logan - 251  shares  ($8,785).

Item 13 - Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

                      CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS WITH MANAGEMENT

     Certain directors and officers of the Corporation have had and are expected
to have in the future,  transactions  with the Bank,  or have been  directors or
officers of  corporations,  or members of  partnerships,  which have had and are
expected  to  have  in  the  future,   transactions  with  the  Bank.  All  such
transactions  with officers and directors,  either directly or indirectly,  have
been made in the  ordinary  course of  business  and on  substantially  the same
terms, including interest rates and collateral,  as those prevailing at the same
time for comparable transactions with other customers, and these transactions do
not  involve  more than the  normal  risk of  collectibility  or  present  other
unfavorable features. All such future transactions,  including transactions with
principal  shareholders and other  Corporation  affiliates,  will be made in the
ordinary course of business,  on terms no less favorable to the Corporation than
with other  customers,  and for loans in excess of $200,000,  will be subject to
approval by a majority of the Corporation's  independent,  outside disinterested
directors.
