Challenges and Opportunities Ahead • Environmental/Macro: (Interest Rates, Regulatory, Political): Chiefly, a prolonged flat interest rate environment projected to continue to pressure NIM output as well as loss of purchase accounting income • Low growth, highly competitive environment expected to continue; although borrower demand seems to have turned moderately in Q2 • Deleveraging expected to continue at Waccamaw but should begin to abate in coming quarters 9 • M&A opportunities will continue to surface, particularly at smaller institutions where FCBC has historically thrived. Headwinds driving management and board fatigue or senior management seeks exit. • Capital Strength: Should accretive activity not surface, the company can enhance shareholder returns through stock buybacks and dividends . • Disciplined credit underwriting despite pressure to ease • Deleveraging at Waccamaw is easing and new commercial team creating new business activities Challenges Opportunities

Investment Highlights: Interest Rate Risk Analysis 14 The above table summarizes the impact of immediate and sustained rate shocks in the interest rate environment on net interest income . The model simulates plus 300 to minus 100 basis point changes from the base case rate simulation and illustrates the prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes over a twelve - month time period . This modeling technique, although useful, does not take into account all strategies that management might undertake in response to a sudden and sustained rate shock as depicted . Also, as market conditions vary from those assumed in the sensitivity analysis, actual results will also differ due to prepayment and refinancing levels likely deviating from those assumed, the varying impact of interest rate change caps or floors on adjustable rate assets, the potential effect of changing debt service levels on customers with adjustable rate loans, depositor early withdrawals and product preference changes, and other internal and external variables. As of June 30, 2013, the Federal Open Market Committee maintained a target range for federal funds of 0 to 25 basis points, rendering a complete downward shock of 200 basis points meaningless; accordingly, downward rate scenarios are limited to minus 100 basis points . In the downward rate shocks presented, benchmark interest rates are assumed at levels with floors near 0%.

Background ▪ Acquired Waccamaw Bank with FDIC Loss - Share Coverage which closed June 8, 2012. At deal close loans totaled approximately $318 million (pre - mark) of which most were covered by loss share (80%). ▪ Recorded No Pre - tax Bargain Purchase Gain and did not pay a deposit premium. ▪ Established Loss - Share Receivable (Indemnification Asset) a t close of $49.8 million, representing projected funds to be collected from FDIC on acquired covered loans Accounting Update ▪ Adopted ASU 2012 - 06 in 1Q13. ASU 2012 - 06 requires a reporting entity to subsequently account for a change in the measurement of the indemnification asset on the same basis as the change in the assets subject to indemnification. ASU 2012 - 06 further requires that any amortization of changes in value be limited to the lesser of the term of the indemnification agreement and the remaining life of the indemnified assets . ▪ Adoption of ASU 2012 - 06 ultimately drove us to begin to record IA amortization on acquired loans. We previously had not been recording the amortization. Prospectively, we now will be recognizing IA amortization. Projected Remaining Impacts from IA Amortization ▪ 2Q13 included $ 1.7 million of IA amortization expense vs. $1.5 million in 1Q13 and nil in prior quarters . ▪ Approximately $3.0 million projected for the remainder of 2013.
