ITEM 2.    ACQUISITION OF ASSETS.

     On August 22, 1996 Newnan Savings Bank, FSB announced that it had completed
its reorganization of the savings bank into a holding company to be named Newnan
Holdings, Inc. ("Company").  Simultaneous with the reorganization, the Company
completed its acquisition of  Southside Financial Group, Inc. and its
subsidiary, the Citizens Bank and Trust of Fayette County.  Both Newnan Savings
Bank and Citizens Bank and Trust will operate as subsidiaries of the Company
(Southside Financial Group, Inc. will be dissolved).

     As a result of the reorganization into the holding company, Newnan Savings
Bank shareholders received one share of stock in the Company in exchange for one
share of stock in the savings bank.  Each outstanding share of Southside was
converted into the right to receive merger consideration in an amount equal to
$41.00.  The terms of the acquisition also provide that a Southside shareholder
who owned 5,000 or more shares could elect to receive up to 50% of his or her
merger consideration in the form of Newnan Holdings stock; however, no more than
145,000 additional shares of Newnan Holdings will be issued.  In completing the
acquisition, the Company issued 136,990 shares of Newnan Holdings, Inc. stock
and paid $13.7 million in cash to Southside shareholders.
