ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS




                       INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REVIEW REPORT


To the Board of Directors
Volunteer Bancorp, Inc.
Rogersville, Tennessee

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets of
Volunteer Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiary as of March 31, 2000 and 1999, and the
related condensed consolidated statements of earnings, condensed consolidated
statements of cash flows, and condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive
income for the three months then ended, in accordance with Statements on
Standards for Accounting and Review Services issued by the American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants. All information included in these condensed
consolidated financial statements is the representation of the management of
Volunteer Bancorp, Inc.

A review of interim financial statements consists primarily of inquiries of
company personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data. It is
substantially less in scope than an audit in accordance with generally accepted
accounting standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion
regarding the condensed consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.
Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements in order
for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

         Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

                     Three Months Ended March, 2000 and 1999

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------



1.          Management Opinion

            In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed
            consolidated financial statements of Volunteer Bancorp, Inc.
            contain all adjustments, consisting of only normal, recurring
            adjustments, necessary to fairly present the financial results for
            the interim periods presented. The results of operations for any
            interim period is not necessarily indicative of the results to be
            expected for an entire year. These interim financial statements
            should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements
            and notes thereto.

2.          Adoption of Recently Issued Statements of Financial Accounting
            Standards (SFAS)

            Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130,
            "Reporting Comprehensive Income." Statement No. 130 requires the
            reporting of comprehensive income in addition to net income from
            operations. Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial
            reporting methodology that includes disclosure of certain financial
            information that historically has not been recognized in the
            calculation of net income.

            SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
            Activities", as amended by SFAS No. 137, is effective for fiscal
            quarters beginning after June 15, 2000 unless adopted earlier. This
            Statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for
            derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments
            embedded in other contracts, (collectively referred to as
            derivatives) and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity
            recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the
            statement of financial position and measure those instruments at
            fair value. If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be
            specifically designated as (a) a hedge of the exposure to changes in
            the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or an unrecognized
            firm commitment, (b) a hedge of the exposure to variable cash flows
            of a forecasted transaction, or (c) a hedge of the foreign currency
            exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation, an unrecognized
            firm commitment, an available-for-sale security, or a
            foreign-currency-denominated forecasted transaction. Adoption by the
            Company is not expected to have any material impact upon financial
            position or results of operations.

ITEM 2.             MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

        AS OF AND FOR THE THREE AND MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 AND 1999

                                OPERATING RESULTS

The Company reported net income for the first quarter of $158,306, or $0.29 per
common share, compared to net income of $141,016, or $0.26 for the same period a
year ago. Our returns on average assets and average common equity were 0.60% and
15.53%, respectively, for the quarter compared to 0.57% and 12.96% for the same
period last year.

Net interest income for the first three months of 2000 increased $131,097 versus
the first three months of 1999 to $958,065. The increase is attributable to
growth in interest earning assets of 7.26%. Average loans grew 12.37% over the
first quarter of 1999. Total Company assets were $108,257,121 at March 31, 2000
compared to $99,706,001 as of March 31, 1999.

The net interest margin was 4.06% for the first quarter of 2000 compared to
3.71% for the first quarter of 1999. The yield on the investment portfolio was
6.77% for the first quarter of 2000 compared to 6.13% for the same quarter of
1999. The higher level of interest income from loans and securities was offset
by an increase in the cost of interest-bearing deposits, securities sold under
repurchase agreements, Federal Home Loan Bank advances, and note payable.

Non-interest income for the first quarter of 2000 decreased $25,754 over the
first quarter of 1999. The decrease is primarily attributable to a reduction in
gains on securities transactions. Non-interest expenses for the first quarter of
2000 increased $78,501 compared to the first quarter of 1999 primarily for costs
(including salaries and employee compensation) associated with overall growth.

                                  ASSET QUALITY

Non-performing assets at March 31, 2000 were $1,138,000 or 1.61% of loans and
foreclosed properties, which is an increase from $641,000, or 0.81% of loans and
foreclosed properties at March 31, 1999. The provision for losses on loans was
$60,000 for the first quarter of 2000 and 1999. At March 31, 2000, the allowance
for losses on loans was 1.30% of loans and approximately 80.09% of
non-performing assets. The increase in non-performing assets is primarily
attributable to a real estate development loan in which no loss is anticipated.
