SOUTHERN NATIONAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 1996 (Unaudited) A. Basis of Presentation In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the consolidated balance sheets of Southern National Corporation and subsidiaries ("Southern National" or "SNC") as of June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995; the consolidated statements of income for the three months and six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995; the consolidated statements of changes in shareholders' equity for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995; and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995. The consolidated financial statements and notes are presented in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q. The information contained in the footnotes included in Southern National's latest annual report on Form 10-K should be referred to in connection with the reading of these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements. Certain 1995 amounts have been reclassified to conform with statement presentations for 1996. The reclassifications have no effect on shareholders' equity or net income as previously reported. The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. B. Nature of Operations Southern National is a multi-bank holding company headquartered in Winston- Salem, North Carolina. Southern National conducts its operations in North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia primarily through its commercial banking subsidiaries and, to a lesser extent, through its other subsidiaries. The commercial banking subsidiaries provide a wide range of traditional banking services for retail and commercial customers, including small and mid-size businesses, public agencies and local governments, trust companies and individuals. Substantially all of Southern National's loans are to businesses and individuals in the Carolinas and Virginia. Subsidiaries of the commercial banks offer lease financing to commercial businesses and municipal governments; investment alternatives, including discount brokerage services, annuities, mutual funds and government and municipal bonds; life and property and casualty insurance on an agency basis; and insurance premium financing. 5

C. New Accounting Pronouncements During 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." This statement establishes accounting standards for long-lived assets, certain identifiable intangibles and goodwill related to those assets to be held and to be disposed of. The statement requires such assets to be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Any resulting impairment loss is required to be reported in the period in which the recognition criteria are first applied and met. Southern National adopted the provisions of the statement on January 1, 1996. The implementation did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations. In May 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 122, "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights," which amends SFAS No. 65, "Accounting for Certain Mortgage Banking Activities." SFAS No. 122 requires that mortgage banking enterprises recognize, as separate assets, rights to service mortgage loans for others, however those servicing rights are acquired. The statement further requires mortgage banking enterprises to assess their capitalized mortgage servicing rights for impairment based on the fair value of those rights. Southern National elected, in the third quarter of 1995, to adopt this statement effective as of January 1, 1995. The impact of the adoption of this statement resulted in additional mortgage banking income of $1.8 million, before taxes, or $.01 per fully diluted share, after taxes, during 1995. SFAS No. 122 prohibits retroactive application to prior years. In October of 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," which establishes financial accounting and reporting standards for stock-based compensation plans. The statement defines a fair value based method of accounting for an employee stock option or similar equity instrument and encourages the adoption of that method of accounting. However, the statement also allows entities to continue to account for such plans under Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25. Entities electing to account for such plans in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25 must make pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share as if the fair value based method of accounting defined in the statement had been applied. Southern National adopted the statement effective January 1, 1996 and elected to continue to account for stock-based compensation plans under the provisions of Opinion No. 25. Therefore, the implementation of the statement did not have an impact on Southern National's consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations. Southern National will make the required pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share using accounting methods prescribed by SFAS No. 123 in the Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 1996. In June of 1996, the FASB issued SFAS No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities." The statement, which becomes effective for transactions occurring after December 31, 1996, provides accounting and 6
10-Q9th Page of 27TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 9th
reporting standards for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities based on the financial components approach that focuses on control. Under this approach, after a transfer of financial assets, an entity recognizes the financial and servicing assets it controls and the liabilities it has incurred, derecognizes all assets it does not control and derecognizes liabilities when extinguished. The statement also provides consistent standards for distinguishing transfers of financial assets that are sales from transfers that are secured borrowings. Management does not anticipate that the implementation of the statement will have a material impact on the consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations of Southern National. D. Mergers and Acquisitions On March 29, 1996, Southern National announced plans to acquire Regional Acceptance Corporation of Greenville, N.C., ("Regional") in a stock transaction to be accounted for under the pooling-of-interests method of accounting. Regional's shareholders will receive .3929 shares of Southern National stock for each share of Regional stock held. The exchange ratio is fixed between Southern National stock prices of $26 and $30, with an adjustment provision within an outer collar of $24 and $32. Pursuant to the acquisition, Southern National will issue approximately 6.0 million shares of common stock. Regional, which specializes in indirect financing for consumer purchases of mid-model and late-model used automobiles, operates 28 branch offices in North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia. E. Supplemental Cash Flow Information During the first quarter of 1996, Southern National redeemed all outstanding shares of Convertible Preferred Stock. This transaction, a noncash financing activity, resulted in the conversion of 733,869 shares of preferred stock into 4,334,692 shares of common stock. 7

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION Southern National's total assets at June 30, 1996 were $20.6 billion, a $63.2 million increase from the balance at December 31, 1995. The primary component of the increase was loans and leases, which grew $169.0 million, or 2.5% on an annualized basis. This increase was offset by declines in securities holdings of $93.5 million, or 3.5% on an annualized basis. Growth in loans was affected by a securitization program Southern National implemented during 1995. During the second quarter of 1996, Southern National securitized $510.2 million of loans. This program is designed to provide Southern National with additional liquidity and flexibility in managing mortgage loan assets. The resulting mortgage-backed securities are being used to replace lower-yielding U.S. Treasuries in the securities portfolio as they mature. Annualized loan growth, excluding the impact of this securitization program, was 9.6% comparing end of period loans at June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995. Average loans, excluding the impact of $503.2 million of securitized loans, increased at an annualized rate of 7.5% comparing the quarters ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. This loan growth has primarily resulted from a 14.1% increase in average mortgage loans excluding the impact of the loan securitizations. However, Southern National has also seen growth in average commercial loans of 4.6% and average consumer loans of 5.1%. The strong increase in mortgage loans resulted from a special incentive program which began during the first quarter of 1996. At June 30, 1996, securities available for sale had unrealized depreciation, after tax, of $33.6 million compared to unrealized appreciation, after tax, of $31.2 million at December 31, 1995. The taxable equivalent yield on the securities portfolio during the second quarter was 6.59%, up from 6.32% for the fourth quarter of 1995 and up from 6.28% for the second quarter of the prior year. During the fourth quarter of 1995, Southern National began to reshape the balance sheet by changing the mix of investments held. The change in mix was undertaken to improve the overall interest yield of the securities portfolio. As previously discussed, this effort continued into the second quarter of 1996 and has contributed to significantly improved margins. On the liability side of the balance sheet, long-term debt rose $571.6 million compared to December 31, 1995, primarily as a result of the issuance of $225.0 million of senior bank notes and $250.0 million of subordinated notes of Southern National during 1996. This growth was more than offset by a $705.7 million reduction in short-term borrowed funds compared to the year end 1995. Total deposits increased by $306.6 million from the balance at December 31, 1995. Southern National, as well as many other financial institutions, has been experiencing a trend of slower deposit growth because of competition for deposits from various non-financial institution sources. 8
10-Q11th Page of 27TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 11th
However, through an increased emphasis on demand deposits, Southern National has experienced stronger growth during 1996. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased $61.1 million, or 3.2% during the first six months of 1996. Slower deposit growth during 1995 caused management to rely more heavily on nondeposit funding sources, such as Federal Home Loan Bank advances and Federal funds purchased. The improved deposit growth during 1996 also contributed to the reduction in short-term borrowed funds. Less reliance on short-term borrowed funds should provide more stability for the net interest margin. Asset Quality Nonperforming assets were $70.7 million at June 30, 1996, compared to $71.2 million at December 31, 1995. The allowance for losses as a percentage of loans and leases was 1.27% compared to 1.25% six months earlier, and nonperforming assets as a percentage of loan-related assets were .51% at both June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995. Certain asset quality measures deteriorated somewhat during the third quarter of 1995 and have remained steady through the second quarter of 1996. This deterioration reflected a reorganization of the collections function which resulted from the merger of Southern National and BB&T Financial Corporation ("BB&T"). Also, for a number of quarters, Southern National's asset quality ratios were unusually strong compared to historic norms. Increases in net charge-offs to a more normalized level have been expected by management as segments of the overall economy softened during 1995. Management does not anticipate a material change in asset quality levels during the remainder of 1996. Loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest totaled $18.0 million compared to a prior year-end balance of $29.1 million. This reduction occurred principally in mortgage loans, as the mortgage banking function focused a great deal of attention on past due situations during the second quarter. The provision for loan and lease losses for the first six months of 1996 was $22.5 million compared to $14.0 million in the first six months of 1995. The increase in the provision reflects higher net charge-offs during 1996. Asset quality statistics relevant to the last five calendar quarters are presented in the accompanying table.

ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT Asset/liability management activities are designed to assure liquidity and, through the management of Southern National's interest sensitivity position, to manage the impact of interest rate fluctuations on net interest income. It is the responsibility of the Asset/Liability Management Committee ("ALCO") to set policy guidelines and to establish long-term strategies with respect to interest rate exposure and liquidity. The ALCO meets regularly to review Southern National's interest rate and liquidity risk exposures in relation to present and prospective market and business conditions, and adopts funding and balance sheet management strategies that are 10
10-Q13th Page of 27TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 13th
intended to assure that the potential impact on earnings and liquidity is within established parameters. A prime objective in interest rate risk management is the avoidance of wide fluctuations in net interest income through balancing the impact of changes in interest rates on interest-sensitive assets and interest-sensitive liabilities. Management uses Interest Sensitivity Simulation Analysis to measure the interest rate sensitivity of earnings. Balance sheet repositioning is the most efficient and cost-effective means of managing interest rate risk and is accomplished through strategic pricing of asset and liability accounts. The expected result of strategic pricing is the development of appropriate maturity and repricing streams in those accounts to produce consistent net income during adverse interest rate environments. The ALCO monitors loan, investment and liability portfolios to ensure comprehensive management of interest rate risk on the balance sheet. These portfolios are analyzed for proper fixed-rate and variable-rate "mixes" given a specific interest rate outlook. Management has established parameters for asset/liability management which prescribe a maximum impact on net interest income of 3% for a 150 basis point change over six months, for the most likely interest rate scenario, and a maximum of 6% for a 300 basis point change over 12 months. It is management's ongoing objective to effectively manage the impact of changes in interest rates and minimize the resulting effect on earnings. At June 30, 1996, changes in interest rates would not have a significant impact on Southern National's earnings. Derivatives and Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments Interest rate volatility often increases to the point that balance sheet repositioning through the use of account repricing and other on-balance sheet strategies cannot occur rapidly enough to avoid adverse net income effects. At those times, off-balance sheet or synthetic hedges are utilized. Management uses interest rate swaps, caps and floors to supplement balance sheet repositioning. Such products are designed to move the interest sensitivity of Southern National toward a neutral position. Interest rate swaps are contractual agreements between two parties to exchange a series of cash flows representing interest payments. A swap allows both parties to transform the repricing characteristics of an asset or liability from a fixed to a floating rate, a floating rate to a fixed rate, or one floating rate to another floating rate. The underlying principal positions are not affected. Swap terms generally range from one year to ten years depending on need. At June 30, 1996, interest rate swaps and floors with a total notional value of $973.6 million, and terms of up to seven years, were outstanding. The following tables set forth certain information concerning Southern National's interest rate swaps at June 30, 1996: 11

As of June 30, 1996, there was no unearned income or deferred premiums from new swap transactions. Deferred losses from terminated swap transactions were $363,000. The deferred losses will be recognized in the next year. The combination of active and terminated transactions resulted in income of $745,000 during the first six months of 1996. In addition to interest rate swaps, Southern National utilizes written covered over-the-counter call options on specific securities in the available- for-sale portfolio in order to enhance returns. Option fee income was $670,000 for the first six months of 1996. Unexercised options on securities with total par values of $25.0 million were outstanding at June 30, 1996. Southern National also utilizes purchased over-the-counter put options in its mortgage banking activities to hedge the mortgage pipeline. During 1996, options with a par value of $30.0 million were purchased and remained outstanding at June 30, 1996. CAPITAL ADEQUACY AND RESOURCES The maintenance of appropriate levels of capital is a management priority. Capital adequacy is monitored on an ongoing basis by management. Southern National's principal capital planning goals are to provide an adequate return to shareholders while retaining a sufficient base from which to provide future growth and compliance with all regulatory standards. Total shareholders' equity was $1.6 billion at June 30, 1996 and $1.7 billion at December 31, 1995. As a percentage of total assets, total shareholders' equity was 7.7% at June 30, 1996, down from 8.2% at December 31, 1995. Southern National's book value per common share at June 30, 1996 was $15.25, versus $15.52 at December 31, 1995. Average shareholders' equity as a percentage of average assets was 7.9% for the quarter ended June 30, 1996 and 8.0% for the three months ended December 31, 1995. Tier 1 and total risk-based capital ratios at June 30, 1996 were 11.7% and 14.9%, respectively. The leverage ratio was 7.8% at the end of the second quarter. The comparable ratios at the end of 1995 were 13.0%, 14.3% and 7.8%, respectively. These capital ratios measure the capital to risk-weighted assets and off-balance sheet items as defined by Federal Reserve Board ("FRB") guidelines. An 8.00% minimum of total capital to risk-weighted assets is required. One-half of the 8.00% minimum must consist of tangible common shareholders' equity (Tier 1 capital) under regulatory guidelines. The leverage ratio, established by the FRB, measures Tier 1 capital to average total assets less goodwill and must be maintained in conjunction with the risk-based capital standards. The regulatory minimum for the leverage ratio is 3.00%. The declines in certain capital ratios reflect the impact of a common stock repurchase plan which was undertaken to facilitate the conversion of all of Southern National's preferred stock outstanding. On January 11, 1996, Southern National announced that these shares would be used in the anticipated conversion of the preferred stock which was redeemed on March 29, 1996, at the price of $104.05 per share. Each share of preferred stock was convertible into 5.9068 shares of common stock. 13

ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Southern National had net income for the first six months of 1996 totaling $143.5 million, compared to $45.6 million during the first six months of 1995. On a fully diluted per share basis, earnings for the six months ended June 30, 1996 were $1.35, compared to $.42 for the same period in 1995. The significant increase from the prior year earnings results from $72.7 million in after-tax nonrecurring charges and securities losses related to the merger between Southern National and BB&T which were recorded in the first six months of 1995. Excluding nonrecurring items from the prior year, Southern National's net income would have increased 21.4%, or $25.3 million. For the second quarter, net income totaled $73.9 million compared to $57.9 million recorded for the second quarter of 1995, an increase of $16.0 million, or 27.6%. On a fully diluted per share basis, net income for the quarter was $.70, a 32.1% increase over the $.53 earned in the second quarter of 1995. Southern National's significant growth in recurring earnings results from three factors. First, net interest margin improved from 4.10% for the first six months of 1995 to 4.34% for the first half of 1996. Second, following the merger of Southern National and BB&T, management targeted a growth rate in noninterest income of 20%. The 23.7% growth in recurring noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to the same period in 1995 demonstrates progress in achieving the revenue enhancements which were expected to be a strength of the combined bank. Third, Southern National has controlled expenses following the merger, as shown by the improvement in the efficiency ratio to 53.8% from 58.3% for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Net Interest Income Net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent ("FTE") basis was $394.5 million for the first six months of 1996 compared to $367.8 million for the same period in 1995, a 7.3% increase. For the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, average interest-earning assets increased $130.8 million, or .7%, to $19.0 billion, while average interest-bearing liabilities decreased by $115.2 million. As discussed previously, Southern National also experienced substantial positive development in the net interest margin. The 24 basis point increase in margin was caused primarily by a 39 basis point increase in yields from securities, combined with a 74 basis point decrease in rates paid on short-term borrowed funds and a 68 basis point decrease in rates paid on long-term debt. These fluctuations reflect the restructuring of the securities portfolio, as well as other categories of the balance sheet, which has slowed growth in total assets, thus reducing Southern National's dependence on costly nondeposit funding sources. The improvement in margin also reflects a change in management focus from pricing strategies to quality strategies. Loans and deposits were very competitively priced following the merger of Southern National and BB&T to protect current market positions and retain customer relationships. 15

Hedging strategies have been used in the past and will be utilized in the future to reduce sensitivity to interest rate movements. See "ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT" for additional discussion of hedging strategies. Noninterest Income Noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 1996 was $139.5 million, compared to $104.4 million for the same period in 1995. Securities losses of $19.8 million recorded in the first quarter of 1995 were a major contributing factor to the increase in noninterest income. These securities losses resulted from a restructuring of the securities portfolio done in connection with the merger. However, Southern National also experienced positive development in service charges on deposits, mortgage banking activities, general insurance commissions and trust income. The percentage of total revenues, calculated as net interest income plus noninterest income excluding securities gains or losses, derived from noninterest (fee-based) income for the six months ended June 30, 1996 was 26.1%, up from 25.2% for the first six months of 1995. Management anticipates continued growth in noninterest income, with a target ratio of noninterest income to total revenues of 30%. Service charges on deposits grew for the first six months in 1996 compared to 1995, increasing by $8.2 million, or 18.8%. The primary factor contributing to the significant growth in service charges on deposits was increased fees during 1996. For the second quarter, service charges increased $4.3 million, or 19.1%, over the same quarter last year. The greatest increases involved commercial account analysis income and overdraft charges. Additionally, rising interest rates during 1995 negatively affected service charges on deposit accounts by increasing the earnings credit used in service charge computations. Looking forward, management anticipates new fees on automated teller machines ("ATMs"), to provide an additional $6.0 million in fee income on an annual basis with no additional expenses. As a component of Southern National's emphasis on alternative delivery systems, management anticipates the addition of 75 new ATMs in existing branches and an additional 200 ATMs in non-branch locations. Trust income grew $1.8 million, or 20.5%, for the six months ended June 30,1996 compared to the same period in 1995. For the second quarter of 1996, trust services income totaled $6.2 million, an increase of $1.5 million over the second quarter of 1995. The significant second quarter growth results from fees collected during the second quarter which are only collected annually, principally administration fees for corporate benefit plans. The rate of growth is expected to return to a more normalized level for the remainder of the year. 18

Southern National also realized substantial growth in general insurance commissions, up $2.5 million, or 30.1%, compared to the first six months of 1995. The growth in general insurance commissions resulted from unusually large contingency commissions and earnings from sales of life insurance contracts. Comparing the second quarters of 1996 and 1995, general insurance commissions grew at a rate of 9.9%. Mortgage banking activities increased 79.2%, or $7.9 million, for the six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to the same period in 1995. For the second quarter of 1996, mortgage banking activities increased $4.2 million, or 95.6%. These increases resulted from significant gains on higher volumes of sales of mortgage loans during the first six months of 1996. Other nondeposit fees and commissions increased by $5.3 million to a level of $35.7 million in 1996 compared with $30.4 million for the first six months of 1995. The primary component generating the increase in nondeposit fees and commissions was investment services, which increased $4.9 million. For the second quarter of 1996, other nondeposit fees and commissions increased $4.1 million compared to the prior year, also driven by investment services. Other income decreased $10.3 million for the first six months of 1996 because of a premium totaling $11.9 million relating to a divestiture of deposits in 1995. This divestiture was necessary in order to comply with anti- trust laws following the merger of Southern National and BB&T. Noninterest Expense Noninterest expense was $297.4 million for the first six months of 1996 compared to $389.3 million for the same period a year ago. Merger-related accruals and expenses led to an elevated level of noninterest expense in the first six months of 1995. These items included $98.2 million of pretax nonrecurring charges which primarily affected personnel expense, occupancy and equipment expense and other noninterest expense. Excluding nonrecurring charges, personnel expense, the largest component of noninterest expense, increased from $144.3 million for the first six months of 1995 to $148.2 million for the same period in 1996. This relatively steady level of personnel expense reflects efficiencies of scale accomplished as a result of the Southern National / BB&T merger. The only component of personnel expense currently increasing is the incentive compensation program because of increased sales in many areas. The nonrecurring charges discussed above contributed $55.3 million to total personnel costs during the first six months of 1995 in the form of severance pay, termination of employment contracts, early retirement packages and related benefits. For the second quarter of 1996, personnel expense totaled $74.5 million, a increase of $3.9 million from the $70.7 million recorded in the second quarter of 1995 on recurring basis. This increase reflects additional incentive compensation, as discussed above. Occupancy and equipment expense, excluding nonrecurring charges, for the six months ended June 30, 1996 increased $2.6 million, or 5.5%, compared to 1995. On-going depreciation of property and equipment purchased in connection with implementing the merger is a major 19
10-Q22nd Page of 27TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 22nd
component of the increase. The $10.1 million in nonrecurring charges relating to branch closings and the consolidation of bank operations and systems associated with the merger had a significant impact on the total occupancy and equipment expense in the prior year. For the second quarter of 1996, occupancy and equipment expense totaled $24.9 million, up slightly from the $24.5 million incurred on a recurring basis in the prior year. Federal deposit insurance expense decreased $9.5 million, or 59.2%, for the six months ended June 30, 1996, compared to the same period in the prior year, as a result of a reduction in insurance premiums charged by the FDIC for deposit insurance. Because of the recapitalization of the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF"), the FDIC eliminated the insurance premium on FDIC-insured deposits. For the first six months of last year, this premium was calculated as $.23 per $100 of insured deposits. Southern National incurred Federal deposit insurance expense of $3.2 million during the second quarter of 1996, down from $8.0 million recorded in the prior year. Southern National continues to incur insurance expense, despite the actions of the FDIC because of Southern National's acquisitions of thrift institutions in prior years. Thrift deposits are insured by the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF"), which still assesses a premium of $.23 per $100 for deposits held by Southern National. In late 1995, proposed legislation was passed in Congress that contained provisions to recapitalize the SAIF. However, the President vetoed the proposed legislation on December 6, 1995, for reasons unrelated to the SAIF recapitalization issue. The legislation included provisions for a one-time special assessment, as determined by the FDIC, on SAIF-assessable deposits of insured depository institutions in an amount adequate to cause the SAIF to achieve its specific designated reserve ratio of 1.25%, which would have called for a special assessment in the range of $.80 per $100 of insured deposits for SAIF institutions. Under the vetoed legislation, the special assessment would have been applied to the amount of SAIF-assessable deposits held as of March 31, 1995. The SAIF- assessable deposits of BB&T-NC and BB&T-SC as of March 31, 1995 totaled approximately $4.3 billion and $1.5 billion, respectively. Under the vetoed legislation, BB&T-NC would have received a 20% discount on the assessment, because the bank's SAIF-assessable deposits were less than 50% of its total assessable deposits as of June 30, 1995. The pretax impact on Southern National of a one-time assessment of the type included in the vetoed legislation would not have exceeded $41.0 million. The vetoed legislation contained additional provisions that, among other things, would have required BIF member institutions to share pro rata in the obligations of SAIF members for certain government bonds. Although the SAIF-recapitalization provisions discussed in the preceding paragraphs were included in legislation that was vetoed and therefore have not been enacted into law, similar provisions have already been considered in 1996, and may be considered again and included in other legislation later in 1996. The final form of the legislation, including whether the legislation will contain some or all of the provisions discussed above, cannot be determined with certainty at this time. Similarly, the date of passage of the final form of any such legislation cannot be determined with certainty at this time. In the event that the SAIF is recapitalized pursuant to any 20
10-Q23rd Page of 27TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 23rd
such legislation, it is expected that future assessment rates applicable to SAIF-assessable deposits would be reduced. Excluding $32.9 million in nonrecurring charges which were recorded in the first six months of last year, other noninterest expenses increased $10.0 million, or 12.2%. This increase was driven by increases in advertising, up $2.2 million, loan and lease expenses, up $4.5 million and other charge-offs, up $2.8 million. The increased advertising costs are related to a marketing program to increase BB&T brand identity. Additional loan and lease expenses result from a home equity incentive program. For the second quarter, other expenses totaled $47.5 million, up from the $40.8 million recorded in the second quarter of 1995 on a recurring basis. This increase reflects higher levels of advertising and promotional expenditures made during the second quarter of 1996. Southern National's efficiency ratio improved to 53.8% for the first six months of 1996 compared to 58.3%, excluding nonrecurring charges, for the same period in 1995. Provision for Income Taxes The provision for income taxes increased to $70.5 million for the first six months of 1996 compared to $23.3 million recorded in the first six months of 1995. Excluding the impact of the nonrecurring charges recorded in 1995, the income tax provision for the prior year totaled $57.3 million. Comparing the recurring balances, the provision for income taxes increased $13.2 million, or 23.0%, because of higher pretax income. Effective tax rates were 32.9% and 32.6% for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. For the second quarter of 1996, the provision for income taxes totaled $36.3 million, up $8.7 million, or 31.7%, compared to the second quarter 1995 balance. 21
