("Carolina Fincorp" or the "Holding Company") in connection with the Plan of Conversion ("Conversion") of Richmond Savings Bank, S.S.B. ("Richmond Savings" or the "Savings Bank") from a state chartered mutual savings bank to a state chartered stock savings bank, and the offer and sale of shares of common stock by the Savings Bank (transactions collectively referred to as the "Conversion" and the sale of common stock as the "Offering"). Pursuant to the Plan of Conversion, (I) Richmond Savings will convert from a North Carolina-chartered savings bank organized in mutual form to a North Carolina savings bank organized in stock form, (II) Richmond Savings will sell its capital stock to Carolina Fincorp, Inc., a North Carolina corporation and become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Holding Company, and (III) the Holding Company will offer and sell shares of its common stock in a subscription offering and, if necessary, in a community offering. In the course of preparing this report, we reviewed and discussed with Richmond Savings' management and independent accountants the audited financial statements of the Savings Bank's operations for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1993, 1994, 1995, and 1996. We also reviewed and discussed with management other financial matters of the Savings Bank. Where appropriate, we considered information based upon other available public sources, which we believe to be reliable; however, we cannot guarantee the accuracy or completeness of such information. We visited the Savings Bank's primary market area and examined the prevailing economic conditions. We also examined the competitive environment within which the Savings Bank operates and assessed the Savings Bank's relative strengths and weaknesses. We examined and compared Richmond Savings' performance with selected segments of the thrift industry and selected publicly traded savings institutions. We reviewed conditions in the securities markets in general and the market for savings institution common stock in particular. We included in our analysis an examination of the potential effects of the Conversion on the Savings Bank's operating characteristics and financial performance as they relate to the estimated pro forma market value of the Savings Bank. In preparing our valuation, we have relied upon and assumed the accuracy and completeness of financial and statistical information provided by Richmond Savings and its independent accountants. We did not independently verify the financial statements and other information provided by the Savings Bank and its independent accountants, nor did we independently value the assets or liabilities of the Savings Bank. The valuation considers the Savings Bank only as a going concern and should not be considered as an indication of the liquidation value of the Savings Bank. 1 Our valuation is not intended, and must not be construed, to be a recommendation of any kind as to the advisability of purchasing shares of Common Stock in the Offering. Moreover, because such valuation is necessarily based on estimates and projections of a number of matters, all of which are subject to change from time to time, no assurance can be given that persons who purchase shares of Common Stock in the Offering will thereafter be able to sell such shares at prices related to the foregoing valuation of the pro forma market value thereof. Baxter Fentriss is not a seller of securities within the meaning of any federal and state securities laws and any report prepared by Baxter Fentriss shall not be used as an offer or solicitation with respect to the purchase or sale of any securities. The accompanying report is an integral part of our valuation and must be read in its entirety to fully understand the basis for our opinion. The valuation reported will be updated as appropriate. These updates will consider, among other factors, any developments or changes in the Savings Bank's financial condition and operating performance, management policies, and current conditions in the securities markets for thrift institution common stock. Should any such developments or changes be material, in our opinion, to the valuation of shares offered in the conversion, appropriate adjustments to the estimated pro forma market value will be made. The reasons for any such adjustments will be explained in detail at that time. 2 I. Richmond Savings Bank, S.S.B. General Overview ---------------- Richmond Savings Bank, S.S.B. ("Richmond Savings"), was organized in 1906 and is headquartered in Rockingham, North Carolina. The Savings Bank operates from its office located at 115 S. Lawrence Street in Rockingham. Richmond Savings' deposits are insured by the SAIF of the FDIC and it is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank System. At June 30, 1996, Richmond Savings had total assets of $94.1 million, total deposits of $83.7 million and total equity of $8.6 million or 9.2% of period end assets. Richmond Savings' business is attracting deposits from the general public and investing those deposits primarily in first mortgages secured by one-to-four family residences. Richmond Savings also makes a limited number of commercial real estate loans and consumer loans in its market area. Richmond Savings is a community-oriented savings institution offering a diverse selection of deposit and loan products with a strong orientation toward customer service. Substantially all of Richmond Savings' loan and deposit business is located in Richmond, Moore, and Scotland Counties. Management does not anticipate any dramatic change in the Savings Bank's operations after the Conversion. Management of Richmond Savings implemented various strategies designed to continue the Bank's profitability while maintaining the safety and soundness of the institution. These strategies include: (1) emphasizing residential and consumer lending; (2) maintaining asset quality; (3) controlling operating expenses; and (4) monitoring interest rate risk. Richmond Savings' capital increased from $4.8 million with an equity to assets ratio of 5.8% at June 30, 1991 to $8.6 million and 9.2% at June 30, 1996 and was in compliance with all applicable regulatory capital requirements. Richmond Savings remained profitable in each of the last six fiscal years ended June 30, 1996. The return on average assets has ranged from a low of 0.78% in fiscal 1991, in which the provision for loan losses was expensed, to a high of 1.11% in fiscal 1993. The return on average assets for the year ended June 30, 1996 was .64% down from .81% at June 30, 1995, partially due to a decrease in net interest income. Management has sought to increase the asset size of the Savings Bank. Total assets increased from $81.3 million at June 30, 1991 to $94.1 million at June 30, 1996, or 15.8%. The Savings Bank's growth in loans has not kept pace with deposit expansion. Total deposits increased by 12.1% and net loans outstanding grew by 12.0% between June 30, 1991 and June 30, 1996, respectively. In contrast, investments including interest earning deposits, fed funds sold, FHLB stock, and investment securities increased from $14.1 million to $21.8 million, between June 30, 1991 and June 30, 1996. 3 Richmond Savings' diversified orientation is evidenced by the composition of its loan portfolio. At June 30, 1996, 81.0% of the Bank's loan portfolio before net items consisted of residential one-to-four family mortgages, 69.4% of the Bank's net loan portfolio was composed of adjustable rate loans, and non-performing assets were 0.06% of total assets. The remainder of Chapter I discusses, in more detail, the overall trends identified in this section. The discussion is supplemented by the tables and exhibits throughout the chapters and at the back of the book. Exhibit II-1 summarizes Richmond Savings' statements of financial condition at June 30, 1993, 1994, 1995, and 1996. Exhibit II-2 summarizes the statements of income for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1993, 1994, 1995, and 1996. 4 Financial Condition Overview ---------------------------- The following discusses asset and liability composition, loans, securities investments, market area, and Richmond Savings' earnings outlook following the Conversion. Assets - ------ Richmond Savings' asset base increased by 15.8% between June 30, 1991 and June 30, 1996. Table 1 shows selected consolidated balance sheet data and Table 2 shows selected balance sheet data as a percentage of period-end assets. The Savings Bank's loan growth did not keep pace with its deposit growth. The Savings Bank portfolios adjustable rate mortgages and sells fixed rate mortgage loans in the secondary market as part of its lending strategy. In addition to 1-4 family permanent mortgage loans, the Bank has diversified its loan portfolio by increasing its offering of consumer loan products. In the low interest rate environment that existed during 1992 through early 1994, consumers generally preferred fixed-rate mortgages, which worked to the bank's favor since it offered both fixed and adjustable rate loans. The bank will emphasize the origination and purchase of adjustable rate loans when market conditions permit due to the fact that these are favorable to have in a rising interest rate environment. Loans - ----- Richmond Savings' ratio of net loans to total assets was 75.1% at June 30, 1991 and increased slightly to 75.2% at June 30, 1996. Net loans outstanding increased from $61.0 million at June 30, 1991 to $68.4 million at June 30, 1996 (or 12.1%). Table 3 shows the composition of the loan portfolio from June 30, 1994 to June 30, 1996. Table 4 shows Richmond Savings' loan origination activity for the last three fiscal years. Richmond Savings is primarily a one- to-four family residential lender with most all of its loans directly originated in its market area. The Savings Bank's permanent 1-4 family mortgage loans comprised 81.0% of net loans receivable as of June 30, 1996, approximating levels in recent years. Consumer lending has been the Bank's primary area of diversification, and totaled 4.2% of net loans receivable at June 30, 1996, while construction and home equity loans totaled 11.4% of net loans receivable. The Savings Bank has minimized the risk associated with long term assets by focusing on assets with shorter maturities and better interest rate spreads. The loan programs and terms currently offered by the Savings Bank include permanent fixed rate and adjustable rate 1-4 family loans have varying terms up to 30 years and commercial real estate and multi-family loans offered by the Savings Bank have terms up to 15 years. Loan to value ratios range from 65 to 95%. The bank also sells fixed rate mortgages in the secondary mortgage market. 5 Table 1 Selected Financial Data At June 30, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, and 1996 (Dollars in Thousands) - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- At June 30, - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Balance sheet data: 1991 1992 1993 1994 1995 1996 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total loans, net $61,012 $63,004 $67,900 $67,680 $68,745 $68,358 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total investments (2) 14,119 15,351 12,789 16,034 18,540 21,783 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total assets 81,290 84,703 87,353 87,504 91,410 94,110 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total deposits 74,660 77,431 79,005 78,315 81,437 83,715 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total liabilities 76,537 79,099 80,793 80,090 83,282 85,469 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Retained income, 4,753 5,605 6,561 7,414 8,128 8,641 substantially restricted - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (1) Source: Richmond Savings Bank, S.S.B., Financial Statements.

Other investments include mortgage-backed securities, corporate debt, municipal bonds, and Federal Home Loan Bank Stock. The market value of the Savings Bank's investment securities totaled $16.3 million at June 30, 1996. The total investment portfolio amounted to $16.0 million, $18.5 million, and $21.8 million, at June 30, 1994, 1995, and 1996, respectively.

In recent years, local retail deposits have generally been sufficient to meet Richmond Savings' funding needs. Richmond Savings attracts deposits from within its market area by offering a variety of deposit products, including NOW, money market, regular savings and term certificate accounts. The Savings Bank offers competitive rates and relies substantially on customer service, convenience, advertising and long-standing relationships with customers to attract and retain deposits. Management periodically sets deposit rates and terms and service charges based on Richmond Savings' funding needs, competitor offerings, and anticipated future economic conditions and related interest rates. Deposits rose from $74.7 million at June 30, 1991 to $83.7 million at June 30, 1996. The Savings Bank has sought to reduce its interest rate risk by encouraging depositors to invest in longer term certificates of deposits and encouraging long-term depositors to maintain their accounts with the Savings Bank. Total demand deposits were $22.1 million or 26.4% of total deposits at June 30, 1996 and 73.6% of total deposits were certificate of deposit accounts. Table 6 shows the distribution and the weighted average rate of Richmond Savings' deposits for the years ended at June 30, 1994, 1995, and 1996. The majority of the Bank's local customers have deposit balances of less than $100,000 and the Savings Bank does not accept brokered CDs, so the Bank's local retail deposit base is believed to be relatively stable.

Table 7 presents Richmond Savings' regulatory capital position and the pro forma estimated capital compliance ratios at June 30, 1996. Assuming that 50% of the net proceeds are invested in the Savings Bank and reducing the capital by the amount of the ESOP and the MRPs results in an increase of Tier I leverage capital of $5.6 million at the pro forma midpoint. The total Tier I leverage capital will equal $14.2 million, or 15.1% of assets, which is $10.3 million in excess of the 4% requirement. In addition, the pro forma capital substantially exceeds the total risk-based capital requirement by $10.6 million and the North Carolina requirement by $9.6 million. 11 Table 7 Historical and Pro Forma Capital Compliance at June 30, 1996 (Dollars in Thousands) - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Historical - 6/30/96 $11,900(Minimum) $14,000(Midpoint) $16,100(Maximum) $18,515 (Adj.

Financial Statements, Pro Forma Business Plan 12 Asset Quality ------------- Richmond Savings regularly reviews its assets to determine if any assets require classification or changes in a previous classification. At June 30, 1996, Richmond Savings had total non-performing loans of $30,000 and real estate owned of $29,000. Non-performing loans represented 0.03% of total assets and 0.35% of equity. Table 8 shows Richmond Savings' non-performing assets for each of the last three fiscal years ended June 30, 1996. Richmond Savings considers both identified probable losses and losses that have not been specifically identified but can be expected to occur in establishing its reserve for loan losses. General and specific reserves are established by the Board of Directors as necessary based on an assessment of risk in the portfolio. Specific reserves are provided for individual assets, or portions of assets, when ultimate collection is considered improbable by management based on the current payment status and the fair or net realizable value of the security. At June 30, 1996, loan loss allowance totaled $389,000.

The Savings Bank's strategies include: (1) emphasizing the origination of adjustable rate, residential one-to-four family real estate loans when market conditions permit; (2) emphasizing the origination of adjustable rate home equity lines of credit; (3) emphasizing the solicitation of checking and transaction accounts which are considered to be less interest- rate sensitive deposits; and (4) attempting to lengthen deposit maturities. Richmond Savings has maintained adequate levels of capital to minimize interest rate risk. The extent of interest rate risk to which the Savings Bank is subject is monitored by management through an analysis of the institution's interest sensitivity gap (the difference between the amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities repricing during a given time), as well as by other means. Table 10 displays the Savings Bank's interest rate shock analysis as measured by the sensitivity of the Savings Bank's net portfolio value to instantaneous changes in interest rates. The analysis was calculated by the FHLB of Atlanta. The analysis shows that a 200 basis point rate shock would result in a 21.8% reduction in the net equity value of the Savings Bank's portfolio as of June 30, 1996. The pattern displayed shows the Savings Bank's balance sheet contains a moderate level of interest rate risk with declining net interest income expected in increasing interest-rate environments.

This spread is subject to fluctuation, caused by changes in the general level of interest rates in the economy as whole and in Richmond Savings' market area. Table 11 shows Richmond Savings' average earning assets yields, average interest-bearing liabilities costs, interest rate spreads and net interest margin for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1994, 1995, and 1996. Richmond Savings' interest rate spread fell from 3.48% during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1994 to 3.24% in the fiscal year ending June 30, 1995, and then dropped to 2.77% during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1996. Like many financial institutions, the Savings Bank's interest rate spread probably peaked early in 1994 as interest rates began an upward trend during the Spring of 1994. At June 30, 1996, the Savings Bank's yield on interest bearing assets was 7.72% and cost of funds was 4.94%, for a spread of 2.77%.

The Savings Bank experienced moderate asset growth from June 30, 1994 of $87.5 million to $91.4 million at June 30, 1995, to $94.1 million at June 30, 1996. Net loans receivable remained stable increasing from $67.7 at June 30, 1994 to $68.7 million at June 30, 1995, and then decreased to $68.4 million at June 30, 1996. The demand for the Bank's adjustable rate loans has not kept pace with the Bank's deposit growth. During the same period, investments increased from $16.0 million at June 30, 1994 to $18.5 million at June 30, 1995, to $21.8 million at June 30, 1996. This investment growth was funded by the growth in deposits from $78.3 million at June 30, 1994 to $81.4 million at June 30, 1995, to $83.7 million at June 30, 1996. Net Income. Richmond Savings Bank's net income for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1994, 1995, and 1996 was $860,000, $720,000, and $591,000, respectively. Net income was positively affected in 1994 by gains associated with the sale of loans as management sold certain fixed rate loans in an effort to maintain and improve the Bank's interest rate risk and liquidity positions while satisfying demand in the Bank's market area for long-term fixed rate mortgage loans. Declines in the Bank's net interest income, combined with increases in other expenses and significant reduction in loan sales and resulting gains after fiscal 1994, are primarily responsible for the respective decreases in net income for 1995 and 1996. Net Interest Income. Net interest income before provision for loan losses decreased from $3.4 million in 1994 to $3.1 million in 1995, and then to $2.9 million in 1996. The decrease in net income is attributable to a decrease in the interest rate spread from 3.48% in 1994 to 3.24% in 1995 to 2.77% in 1996. The Bank's deposits are more rate sensitive than its interest-earning assets, interest margins usually increase during periods of declining rates and decrease during periods of increasing rates. In the middle of 1994, interest rates began to increase and continued to increase through the end of 1995. The impact of the increasing rates in 1995 resulted in an increase in interest costs $338,000 while interest income increased by only $250,000. The impact of increasing rates during 1996 was an increase in interest costs of $678,000 while interest income increased by only $459,000. Provision for Loan Losses. Richmond Savings' provision for loan losses was $36,000 during the years ended June 30, 1994, 1995, and 1996. At June 30, 1996, the Savings Bank's allowance for loan losses was equal to 1,296% of non- performing loans compared to 282% at June 30, 1994 and 484% at June 30, 1995. The Bank experienced net loan charge-offs of $27,000 and $10,000 during the years ended June 30, 1994 and June 30, 1996, respectively, as compared with a net recovery of loans previously charged off of $11,000 during the year ended June 30, 1995. Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income decreased from $586,000 for the year ended June 30, 1994 to $430,000 for the year ended June 30, 1995, and then increased to $532,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996. The decrease in 1995 was mainly attributable to fluctuations on gains on loan sales which were $151,000, $7,000, and $8,000 for 1994, 1995, and 1996, respectively. 21 Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense increased from $2.39 million in 1994 to $2.45 million in 1995, to $2.49 million in 1996, representing increases of $60,000 and $41,000, respectively. The other expense increases were consistent with the overall trend in inflation. Income Taxes. Income tax expense decreased from $492,000 in 1994, to $329,000 in 1995, to $299,000 in 1996, with the decreases being primarily attributable to corresponding decreases in income before taxes. 22 Primary Market Area ------------------- The Savings Bank's primary market area is Richmond, Moore, and Scotland Counties, in North Carolina. The Savings Bank operates from its office in Rockingham located in Richmond County. Demographic growth trends in Richmond, Moore, and Scotland Counties have been measured by changes in population, number of households, mean household income, and per capita income with trends in those areas summarized by the data represented in Table 15. Population growth in Richmond County of 0.4% was less than the national and North Carolina rates of 1.1% and 1.5%, respectively, from 1990 to 1995. Moore County and Scotland County grew at 2.4% and 0.6%, respectively, during the same period. Projected annual growth of the population through the year 2000 is expected to be only 0.4% for Richmond County, 0.6% for Moore County, and 0.0% for Scotland County over the next five years. Median household income, as well as per capita income, in the Bank's market area, with the exception of Moore County, is significantly below state and national averages. The projected growth in the number of households in the Savings Bank's market area is also significantly below state and national averages. Mean income levels project household growth in Richmond, Moore, and Scotland Counties to fall short of state averages, a typical trend among less urban communities due to generally lower costs of living and less demand for homes. In general, the demographic trends displayed in Table 15 are typical of smaller, less urban market areas. 23 Table 15 Summary Demographic Data (1987$) 1990 1995 2000 Annual Forecasted Census Estimate Forecast Growth Annual Rate Growth Rate 1990-1995 1995-2000 Population (000) United States 249,399 263,211 275,260 1.1% 0.9% North Carolina 6,653 7,182 7,718 1.5 1.4 Richmond County 45 46 47 0.4 0.4 Moore County 59 66 68 2.4 0.6 Scotland County 34 35 35 0.6 0.0 Households (000) United States 92,209 97,777 102,838 1.2% 1.0% North Carolina 2,527 2,759 2,986 1.8 1.6 Richmond County 17 17 17 0.0 0.0 Moore County 24 26 27 1.7 0.8 Scotland County 12 12 12 0.0 0.0 Mean Household Income ($) United States $ 42,977 $ 44,363 $ 47,853 0.6% 1.5% North Carolina 36,307 37,531 40,597 0.7 1.6 Richmond County 29,384 29,206 31,402 -0.1 1.5 Moore County 40,445 40,748 43,832 0.1 1.5 Scotland County 30,304 32,815 35,540 1.7 1.7 Per Capita Income ($) United States $ 16,246 $ 16,862 $ 18,315 0.7% 1.7% North Carolina 14,172 14,820 16,152 0.9 1.7 Richmond County 11,284 11,202 12,069 -0.1 1.5 Moore County 16,556 16,684 18,024 0.2 1.6 Scotland County 10,906 11,826 12,876 1.7 1.8 Source: (1) Woods & Poole Economics, Inc., 1994, State Profile of North Carolina 24 Tables 16-A through 16-C display selected deposit market data for the Richmond, Moore, and Scotland Counties as of June 30, 1995. Richmond Savings, a mutually chartered state savings bank, is the only home based financial institution in Richmond County. In June 1995, Richmond Savings' market share of total deposits in Richmond County was 21.0%, Moore County was 1.4%, and Scotland County was 0.0%. Richmond Savings was second only to United Carolina Bank (UCB) in Richmond County. UCB held the largest deposit market share of 27.5%. In Scotland County, Richmond Savings operates a loan production office. Since a loan production office is not considered a full-service banking office, the Savings Bank's market share of total deposits in Scotland County as listed in Table 16-C was 0.0% as of June 30, 1995. However, the Savings Bank does collect deposits from Scotland County through banking offices in Richmond County.

Source: Richmond Savings Bank, S.S.B., Financial Statements; FDIC 26 Summary - ------- Richmond Savings operates in an economically diverse market area. The Bank's customer base consists of residents from Richmond, Moore, and Scotland Counties which have been experiencing moderate population and economic growth. The economic stability of the market area is favorable as evidenced by the variety of industries located nearby, based primarily on manufacturing and agriculture. Competition in the Savings Bank's market area is strong, however, Richmond Savings maintains a favorable image as the only locally-owned and community- oriented financial institution, and thus has been able to maintain its deposit market share. 27 II. COMPARISONS WITH PUBLICLY TRADED THRIFTS General - ------- The comparative market approach provides a sound basis for making valuation estimates for going-concerns where a large and liquid market exists for peer institutions. The comparative market approach was utilized in deriving a value for Richmond Savings since reliable data is readily available for comparable institutions, this methodology is favored under the conversion guidelines, and other alternative valuation methods (such as a liquidation valuation, discounted cash flow, capitalization of gross revenues, and others) are unlikely to produce a value relevant to the conversion transaction. The generally employed valuation methodology in initial public offerings, where possible, is the comparative market approach. The comparative market approach derives a value from the trading pattern of comparable institutions. The pricing and trading history of recent conversion offerings provide evidence of the "new issue discount" which must be considered in all initial public offerings. Chapter III will detail the new issue discount which we believe is appropriate to Richmond Savings' offering. This chapter selects and compares Richmond Savings with a group of publicly traded thrift institutions (the "comparative group") in order to determine the appropriate adjustments to the Savings Bank's pro forma market value relative to publicly traded companies. Exhibits III-1 through III-8 contain financial comparisons of the Savings Bank with the selected comparative group based on measures of profitability, income and expense trends, yield-cost structure, capital levels, balance sheet composition, and risk measures. The selection criteria employed for the comparative group, and a comparison of the Savings Bank's financial performance with the comparative group are highlighted below. Exhibit III-9 contains public companies considered for the comparative group that were excluded because of their dissimilar financial characteristics or unreasonable geographic location when compared to the Savings Bank. Selection Criteria - ------------------ Selected market price and financial data for thrifts listed on the New York and American Stock Exchanges and those thrifts traded on the national over-the- counter ("OTC") markets listed on the National Savings Bank of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System ("NASDAQ") are shown in Exhibit IV-1. Several criteria, discussed below, were used to select the comparative group from among this larger publicly traded group. Trading volume and degree of liquidity. The existence of an active and regular - --------------------------------------- trading market for the stock is imperative because the reliability of share price data on thinly traded stocks is sometimes questionable due to infrequent trades or widely varying transaction prices. Therefore, the available pricing information on thinly traded stocks may not be a sound indicator of current market conditions and could be particularly misleading as an indicator of market conditions for the to-be-issued stock of a converting savings institution. To insure the equities in the comparative group have access to an active and regular trading market, we attempted to limit our selection to companies listed on the three major exchanges and those demonstrating an active and liquid trading market. However, we did select some savings institutions that were not listed on one of the three major exchanges in order to include institutions in North Carolina. Even on the 28 three major exchanges trading volume in all stocks varies considerably, especially among the OTC-listed companies. Therefore, the underlying reasons for the volume of trading for particular issues must be given consideration. We attempted to eliminate from the comparative group companies with market prices that were materially influenced by publicly announced or widely rumored acquisitions. However, the expectation of continued industry consolidation is embedded in the thrift equities' market. Geographic Location. The region of the country where a company operates is also - -------------------- of considerable importance in selecting the comparative group. The operating environment for savings institutions can vary greatly from state to state, with respect to legal and regulatory climates from region to region because of economic characteristics, real estate market conditions, takeover activity, and investment climates. Economic and investor climates can vary greatly within a region, particularly due to takeover activity. We attempted to select savings institutions in the Southeast, primarily in North Carolina, that also met most of the other criteria. Operating characteristics. Critically, an institution's operating - -------------------------- characteristics are important factors because they effect investors' expected rates of return on a company's stock under various economic scenarios, and they influence the market's general perception of the quality and attractiveness of a given company. Operating characteristics, which may vary in importance during the business cycle, include financial variables such as profitability, balance sheet growth, capitalization, asset quality, and other factors such as lines of business and management strategies. Asset quality remains significant among investor considerations as thrift earnings problems in the current interest rate environment are frequently due to real estate problems. In arriving at a comparative group for Richmond Savings, we initially examined the universe of profitable similarly sized thrifts (under $100 million, where possible) and thrifts headquartered in or near North Carolina. We considered Richmond Savings' loan portfolio consisting primarily of one-to-four family residential loans and the wide variety of deposit products it offers, as critical variables which distinguish Richmond Savings from other thrift institutions. Another issue of importance was the criterion of capitalization. We included companies that offered mortgage loans as well as non-mortgage loans. Richmond Savings' historic core earnings are strong and we generally excluded companies reporting negative earnings, unless other factors outweighed this restriction. We also eliminated companies in less favorable market areas and relaxed our criteria modestly for institutions located in the Southeast. Where possible, we included companies headquartered in or near North Carolina. Table 17 provides a summary of the general characteristics of Richmond Savings and the ten companies selected for the comparative group. Exhibit III-8 provides a comparison of the loan portfolios of the individual comparative companies and the Savings Bank. While differences inevitably exist between the Savings Bank and the individual comparative companies, we believe the comparative group provides a basis for meaningful comparisons for valuation purposes. We included within the comparative group five thrifts located in North Carolina, one thrift located in Virginia, two thrifts located in Ohio, one thrift located in Kentucky, and one thrift located in Alabama. The chosen companies ranged in asset size from $56.4 million to $256.3 million, with five of the ten having an asset size under $100.0 million. 29 TABLE 17 GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS RICHMOND SAVINGS BANK AND THE COMPARATIVE GROUP AS OF JUNE 30, 1996 Intangible Number Total Equity/ Assets/ NPAs/ of Assets Assets Equity Assets Ticker Institution City State Offices IPO Date ($000) (%) (%) (%) - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- RICHMOND SAVINGS (as of 6/30/96) Rockingham NC 4 10/29/96 94,110 9.18 0.00 0.06 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Comparative Group: Maximum 6 256,294 29.77 0.10 1.48 Minimum 1 56,489 14.60 0.00 0.00 Average 3 114,281 20.77 0.01 0.35 Median 3 102,627 20.65 0.00 0.14 ASBP ASB Financial Corp.

ASB Financial Corp.; Portsmouth, OH: ASB's asset size is $111.7 million. ASB's - ------------------------------------ reported returns on average assets of 102 basis points for the twelve months ended June 30, 1996. ASB is a profitable institution with 69.90% of its loan portfolio of one-to-four family mortgage loans and moderate levels of non- performing assets (1.48% of total assets). ASB has a capital level of 23.08% and converted to a stock institution in May, 1995. ASB's financial performance, loan portfolio composition, and size make it a good comparable to Richmond Savings. Bedford Bancshares, Inc.; Bedford, VA: Bedford is located in the Southeast in - -------------------------------------- Virginia as is Richmond Savings Bank, S.S.B. in North Carolina. Its asset base is comprised predominantly of one-to-four family mortgages at 64.56% of assets and 73.59% of total loans. As of June 30, 1996, total assets were $121.7 million and equity was 15.22% of assets. Bedford is profitable reporting a return on average assets of 1.29% for the last twelve months. Bedford is a good comparable for Richmond Savings because of its financial performance, its location in the Southeast, and its loan portfolio composition. Wood Bancorp, Inc.; Bowling Green, OH: Wood's asset size is $139.7 million. - -------------------------------------- Wood's loan portfolio of one-to-four family mortgages at 80.51% of total loans (64.12% of total assets) is also comparable. Wood's level of equity was 14.60% of assets. Return on average assets for the last twelve months ended June 30, 1996 was 1.17%. Wood converted to a stock institution in August, 1993. Its loan portfolio composition and financial performance make it a good comparable to Richmond Savings. First Ashland Financial Corp.; Ashland, KY: FA Financial Corp. is located in - ------------------------------------------- Ashland, Kentucky. FA's total asset size at $86.8 million is close to the asset size of Richmond Savings. FA converted to a stock institution in April, 1995. FA operates as a thrift institution with a concentration of conventional mortgage loans, representing approximately 70.14% of assets and 90.39% of mortgage loans. FA is a profitable institution with no non-performing assets (0.00% of total assets). FA has a capital level of 27.21% of assets and experienced a trailing twelve month return on average assets of 96 basis points. FA's size and heavy concentration in mortgage loans make it comparable to Richmond Savings. First Savings Financial Corp.; Reidsville, NC: First Savings is located in a - ---------------------------------------------- small community in North Carolina. First Savings' loan portfolio has a high level of one-to-four family mortgages. One-to-four family mortgages comprise 47.70% of assets and 89.95% of mortgage loans. First Savings converted on September 25, 1995. First Saving's asset size is smaller than Richmond Savings' at $58.7 million, but was included due to its location in North Carolina. Home Savings Bank of Siler City; Siler City, NC: Home Savings is located in - ------------------------------------------------ Siler City, North Carolina which is also a small community in North Carolina. Home Savings has a loan portfolio that is concentrated in single-family mortgages totaling 96.11% of total mortgage loans and 94.88% of total loans. Home Savings has a high capital ratio of 23.72%. Though Home Savings is smaller than Richmond Savings, with assets of $56.4 million, its North Carolina location and its high concentration of one-to-four single family mortgages make it an excellent comparable. 30 KS Bancorp, Inc.; Kenly, NC: KS's total asset size was $93.5 million, which is - ---------------------------- slightly smaller than Richmond Savings, and is a profitable, thrift institution. The loan portfolio is comprised of one-to-four- family mortgages totaling 92.74%. Non-performing assets were 0.51% of total assets. KS's return on assets over the last twelve months was 111 basis points. KS converted in December of 1993. KS's size, high concentration of one-to-four family mortgages, asset quality, and North Carolina location make it an excellent comparable. Piedmont Bancorp, Inc.; Hillsborough, NC: Piedmont's assets were $128.7 million - ----------------------------------------- and equity was 29.77% of assets. Piedmont's one-to-four-family mortgages were 88.94% of total loans and 90.72% of total mortgages. Non-performing assets were 0.44% of total assets. Piedmont's profitability was 1.35% of average assets for the last twelve months. Piedmont was selected as a comparable institution because of its North Carolina location and its financial performance. First Savings Bancorp; Southern Pines, NC: FS converted early in 1994. As of - ------------------------------------------ June 30, 1996, equity was 26.21% of total assets. One-to-four family mortgages were 91.50% of total mortgages and 63.77% of total assets of $256.2 million. FS had non-performing assets at 0.03% of total assets and its return on average assets for the last twelve months was 148 basis points. FS's location in North Carolina (within the same market area) and its low level of non-performing assets matches Richmond Savings as well as any of the comparable institutions. SouthFirst Bancshares, Inc.; Sylacauga, AL: SouthFirst converted to a stock - ------------------------------------------- institution in February, 1995. One-to-four family mortgages were 67.26% of total loans, but only 50.61% of assets. SouthFirst reported a return on average assets of 55 basis points for the twelve months ended June 30, 1996. SouthFirst's total assets were $88.8 million and equity was 14.89% of assets. SouthFirst's non-performing assets were 0.14% of assets. SouthFirst's location is not in North Carolina, but its asset size and financial performance make the institution a good comparable to Richmond Savings. 31 Financial Comparisons --------------------- Table 18 summarizes certain key financial comparisons shown in Exhibit III between Richmond Savings and the comparative group, indicating the comparative group averages and medians. Data for the comparables was as of or for the twelve months ended June 30, 1996 unless otherwise noted in Exhibit III. Data for the Savings Bank was also as of or for the twelve months ended June 30, 1996. Richmond Savings' preconversion net income as a percentage of average assets measured 64 basis points for the year ended June 30, 1996. The comparative group average return on average assets was 100 basis points and the median return on average assets was 11 basis points. In our opinion, no significant adjustments to the net income number were necessary for a more accurate reflection of the profitability of the Savings Bank. The Savings Bank's profitability is generated principally through its net interest spread. The Savings Bank's ratios of net interest income to average assets, net interest margin, and yield-cost spread were below the comparative group averages and medians. The Savings Bank's net interest income was 3.11% for the twelve months ended June 30, 1996, while the comparative group average and median were 3.59% and 3.61%, respectively. The Savings Bank's net interest margin at 2.77% was below the comparative group average and median of 3.72% and 3.74%, respectively. The Savings Bank's cost of funds was below the comparative measures as was its yield on interest-earning assets. The Savings Bank's total other non-interest income as a percentage of average assets was 57 basis point during the trailing twelve months ended June 30, 1996, which was higher than comparative group's average of 20 basis points. The Savings Bank's total non-interest expense at 2.69% of average assets for the last twelve months ended June 30, 1996, was slightly higher than the comparative group average of 2.27%. Cash and investments totaled 23.65% of assets for the Savings Bank and averaged 22.66% of assets for the comparative group at June 30, 1996. Gross loans were 73.99% of total assets for the Savings Bank, compared to an average of 70.32% for the comparative group. The Savings Bank held mortgage-backed securities of 1.92% of assets, while mortgage-backed securities averaged 4.79% of assets for the comparative group. The Savings Bank reported no intangible assets and the comparative group average was zero with most comparative companies also reporting no intangibles. The Savings Bank's ratio of deposits to assets was 88.95%, which was above the comparative group's average of 77.02% and median of 77.60%. The Savings Bank had no borrowed funds compared to average borrowings of 2.54% of assets for the comparative group. The Savings Bank's pre-conversion equity to asset position of 9.18% was lower than the post-conversion average equity of 17.04%. The Savings Bank is exposed to lower credit risk than most individual comparative companies. Non-performing assets were lower at 0.06% of assets for the Savings Bank versus a 0.35% average and a 0.11% median for the comparative group. Non-performing loans as a percentage of total loans receivable were 0.04% for the Savings Bank, below the 0.43% comparative average and 32 0.16% comparative group median. The ratio of loan loss reserves to total loans outstanding was 0.57% for the Savings Bank and averaged 0.63% for the comparative companies. The Savings Bank had 0.01% in charge-offs during the period and charge-offs for the comparative companies were (0.03%) of average loans. 33 TABLE 18 Key Financial Indicators RICHMOND SAVINGS BANK and the Comparative Group Richmond Savings Comparative Group Average Comparative Group Median (LTM ended (LTM ended (LTM ended Profitability (% of Avg.

III. MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENTS This chapter identifies the adjustments to the Savings Bank's estimated pro forma market value because of the financial differences between Richmond Savings and the comparative group. Adjustments are also necessary to reflect the equity market's likely reception of a new thrift stock offering. The adjustments discussed in this chapter are made from the viewpoint of potential investors, which include depositors holding subscription rights and unrelated parties who may purchase stock in the community offering. It is assumed that these potential investors are aware of all relevant and necessary facts as they pertain to the value of the Savings Bank relative to other publicly traded thrift institutions and relative to alternative investments. The market value adjustments are based on certain financial and other criteria, which include, among other factors: (1) Earnings Prospects (2) Market Area (3) Management (4) Dividend Policy (5) Liquidity of the Issue (6) Subscription Interest (7) Regulatory Environment (8) Stock Market Conditions and New Issue Discount The final section of this chapter identifies the Savings Bank's estimated pro forma market value, and compares the resulting company with members of the comparative group, and the all public thrift aggregate with respect to market valuation ratios. Earnings Prospects - ------------------ Earnings prospects depend upon the relative sensitivity of asset yields and liability costs to changes in market interest rates (which are displayed in Exhibit IV-3), the credit quality of assets, the stability of non-interest components of income and expense, and the ability to leverage the balance sheet. Each of the foregoing is an important factor to investors. Richmond Savings' profitability peaked in 1993. The lower level profitability in 1994 was fueled by a higher interest rate environment. Net interest income fell during 1995 as customers refinanced to lower interest rates and the competitive pressure to pay higher rates on CDs lowered the profitability. Net interest income declined during 1996 relative to the comparable 1995 due to the increase in interest rates that caused the cost of deposit interest to increase more rapidly than the yield on interest-earning assets. As discussed in Chapter II, the Savings Bank compared favorably to peer institutions on selected profitability measures. The Savings Bank generates a higher return on equity at 7.01% than the comparable group, which averages 5.30%, and has lower growth rates in assets, loans, and deposits than those of the comparative group. 34 A critical question facing many institutions, including Richmond Savings, is whether net interest margins have peaked in the current interest rate environment. In the last twelve months, the Savings Bank experienced a shrinkage of the net interest margin which probably indicates that the Savings Bank's net interest margin has peaked for now. Thus, future earnings enhancement is unlikely to come from improving spreads and more likely to be predicated on business expansion and expense controls. Though Richmond Savings' asset base is growing, the balance sheet indicates it may have difficulty in the future increasing earnings through growth. Positively, the Savings Bank's asset quality is good and management remains committed to maintaining asset quality. Given the composition of the loan portfolio, significant asset quality problems are unlikely. The comparative companies were selected to represent thrift institutions which face the same pressures as the Savings Bank. When the Savings Bank is compared to the comparative group, the Savings Bank's asset growth and its level of profitability is lower. For this reason, we believe a slight downward adjustment should be made for earnings prospects. Market Area - ----------- As discussed in Chapter I, the Savings Bank maintains a larger share of its local deposit and lending market in Richmond County than it does in Moore and Scotland Counties. The Bank also faces competition in its market area from larger institutions with greater resources, as is typical of institutions of its asset size. The Savings Bank's primary market area is rural and is not projected to grow by more than 1 to 2 percent in the next five years. The Bank's deposit market share has declined in all but one of the three counties it serves. Overall, we believe that a slight downward adjustment is warranted to reflect the increased competition and slow population growth. Management - ---------- Management has operated the Savings Bank in a conservative manner, stressing an adequate capital level and maintaining good asset quality. The result has been an increase in capital. Management of the individual comparative companies face similar demands as the Savings Bank's management. We do not believe that the demands placed on the Savings Bank's management exceed those experienced by most public thrift institutions and the Savings Bank appears to have competent management for its business strategy. Management also has a detailed management succession plan in place that should assure the continued progress of the Savings Bank and that the assets will be properly safeguarded in the event of the personal disaster of any of the key management personnel. Accordingly, we believe no adjustment should be made for management. Liquidity - --------- Small conversion offerings often do not have a firm and liquid market after conversion. The market for Richmond Savings' common stock following the conversion based on the Savings Bank's plan is to list on NASDAQ. A lack of liquidity in a stock typically reduces investor demand for the stock and is a negative consideration. The degree of the discount which is experienced by liquid stocks relative to more widely traded shares is not subject to a precise determination. Several studies suggest that the discount could be large. 35 Modestly capitalized thrifts listed on NASDAQ appear to be trading at a discount relative to thrifts overall. This is because trading activity remains very low. To some extent, a discount for liquidity is evident among the smaller market capitalized comparative companies. The Savings Bank's capital at the midpoint is close to the average of the comparative group. Therefore, we do not believe an adjustment for liquidity is warranted. Dividends - --------- The Savings Bank will consider paying an annual dividend following conversion. The Savings Bank has sufficient capital and earnings to pay a dividend. Since most thrifts pay some kind of dividend, we do not believe an adjustment is warranted for dividends. Subscription Interest - --------------------- It is very difficult to predict the outcome of subscription offerings. In recent years, initial offerings of publicly traded thrift stocks attracted a great deal of professional investor interest, which resulted in sell-outs in the subscription phase. During the last half of 1994, as valuation ratios were pushed higher, offerings experienced lackluster subscription interest. In the second half of 1995 the interest for these offerings was extremely strong. The first few conversions of 1996 have reached even new valuation highs. There is, however, some indication from underwriters that the interest level is peaking as valuation levels may have become too high for the sophisticated investor. The Savings Bank's offering will be only to members of the Bank. Based on this limited offering, we believe that a slight downward adjustment is warranted at this time. Recent Regulatory Changes - ------------------------- As widely reported, the regulatory environment for conversions changed significantly. Responding to large after-market price increases of many earlier conversions, the regulatory focus shifted towards minimizing short-term after- market appreciation. The federal regulatory agencies publicly stated that only modest after- market price appreciation will be tolerated. New appraisal guidelines indicate the adequacy of the appraisal will be judged by the immediate price movement of conversions in the after-market, utilizing the closing price on the second trading day after closing. The average price appreciation of all IPOs was between 10%-15% during the past few years. The regulatory guidelines indicate that this is unacceptable for conversion offerings. There is wide variability in the after-market performance of all initial public offerings. Market conditions at the time of the offering, economic conditions facing the specific industry and company and investor perception of potential returns are critical factors in after-market performance of any particular IPO. When making a decision to invest in a thrift conversion, investors will compare the potential for after-market price appreciation in a conversion offering with that of alternative investments, including other IPOs. When the price performance of recent conversions turned negative, many investors refused to continue to participate. Investors have and are likely to continue to look negatively upon the regulatory environment facing conversion offerings and the thrift industry and the uncertainty regarding the ultimate pricing levels which the regulators will require. We have taken into account the changing regulatory requirements in valuing Richmond Savings' conversion and have made a downward adjustment 36 because of the decline in the one-week price changes for conversions in the first part of 1996 when compared to the one-week price changes for conversions from the second half of 1995. Stock Market Conditions - ----------------------- Table 19 displays the performance of the SNL Thrift Index during the past three years. During 1994, interest rates moved upward as the Federal Reserve raised short-term interest rates several times. Economic reports displayed continued strong growth, and earnings reports indicating little to no earnings growth at some institutions helped to depress thrift and bank stock prices. During the spring of 1994, falling bond prices and inflation fears caused declining stock prices among financial services and other interest rate sensitive companies. Thrift stocks regained some momentum during the summer months as inflation fears eased slightly. A sell-off resumed during the Fall as indicated by the SNL Index fall of 15.4% between September 1 and December 1, 1994. Thrift stocks declined more steeply than the bond market averages because of higher interest rates which included an increase in the 30 year bond over 8.00% and the Federal Reserve's short-term interest rate hike of 0.75% in mid-November. Following the mid-November rate hike and a brief rally in the bond market, thrift stocks traded within a narrow range as the year headed towards a close. The downward trend among thrift stock prices was quickly reversed early in 1995 as economic news indicated the Federal Reserve's prior actions to slow the economy were having a noticeable impact. A strong bond market and a consensus among investors that the Federal Reserve would not raise short-term rates further pushed stock prices higher. Through the second half of 1995 as the Federal Reserve lowered interest rates, the stock prices continued ever higher. During the first part of 1996, bond prices began to decline and increases in the SNL Index slowed from the growth experienced in the last half of 1995. On January 31, 1996, the SNL Index closed at 371 representing a 44.9% increase from 256 on January 31, 1995. The SNL Index peaked on August 8, 1996, at 399, which represents a 7.5% increase since January 31, 1996. Almost all of the increase in the index occurred in 1995 as indicated by the increase from January 1, 1995. During July 1996, uncertainty about the Federal Reserve raising interest rates and mixed signals from economic data further impacted stock market fluctuations. Based on the relatively flat increase in the SNL index of 4.5% from March 29, 1996, through August 8, 1996, we have adjusted Richmond Savings slightly downward. 37 Table 19 SNL Thrift Index Monthly Performance January 3, 1994 to August 8, 1996 % % % SNL Thrift Index Change Since Change Since Change Since 01/03/94 01/31/95 1/31/96 1994 - ---- January 3 253 -- -- -- February 1 257 1.9 -- -- March 1 245 -2.8 -- -- April 1 242 -4.3 -- -- May 2 249 -1.3 -- -- June 1 263 4.3 -- -- July 6 274 8.4 -- -- August 1 277 9.8 -- -- September 1 286 13.4 -- -- October 3 277 9.8 -- -- November 1 259 2.5 -- -- December 1 242 -4.3 -- -- December 30 244 -3.6 1995 - ---- January 31 256 1.2 -- -- February 28 277 9.5 8.2 -- March 31 278 9.9 8.6 -- April 28 295 16.6 15.2 -- May 31 308 21.7 20.3 -- June 30 314 24.1 22.7 -- July 31 328 29.6 28.1 -- August 31 356 40.7 39.1 -- September 29 362 43.1 41.4 -- October 31 354 39.9 38.2 -- November 30 370 46.2 44.5 -- December 29 377 49.1 47.2 -- 1996 - ---- January 31 371 46.7 44.9 -- February 29 373 47.4 45.7 0.5 March 29 382 51 49.2 3 April 30 380 50.2 48.4 2.4 May 31 383 51.4 49.6 3.2 June 28 387 53 51.2 4.3 July 31 390 54.2 52.3 5.1 August 8 399 57.7 55.9 7.5 38 Recent Acquisitions in the Savings Bank's Market Area - ----------------------------------------------------- Acquisition speculation is one factor impacting the prices of newly-converted thrifts in the aftermarket. Table 20 displays acquisitions of North and South Carolina thrifts announced from January 1, 1993 through December 31, 1995. During 1993, 1994, and 1995, there were 15, 18, and 9 transactions completed respectively. The average price/book ratio for transactions in 1995 was 207.3%, 168.6% in 1994, and 167.5% in 1993. The average acquisition price/trailing twelve months earnings ratio was 24.6 in 1995, 17.5 in 1994, and 16.6 in 1993. Continued industry consolidation impacts thrift stock prices and to some degree, influences the trading pattern of the comparative companies. Due to the acquisition activity primarily in North Carolina we have made an upward adjustment. 39 TABLE 20 RECENT NORTH AND SOUTH CAROLINA ACQUISITIONS 1993-1995 Deal Value Target Assets P/B P/E Buyer State Seller State ($000) ($000) (%) (x) Status - ----- ----- ------ ----- ------ ------ --- --- ------ ========================================================================================================================== Average for the Year 1995 43.2 244.5 207.3 24.6 ========================================================================================================================== First Charter Corp.

The magnitude of the new issue discount for conversions typically expands during periods of declining thrift stock prices as investors require larger inducements and narrows during strong markets. A potential new issue discount must consider the after-market performance of recent thrift offerings. Table 21 presents a summary of standard conversions completed during each half of 1995 and conversions completed to date in 1996. In 1995, improving market fundamentals, declining concerns over inflation, and lower pro forma valuation ratios at the beginning of the year added momentum to the conversion market. In the wake of Carver Federal's decline and the decline in the overall thrift market, initial offering prices were driven back into the general range of 55% to 60% of pro forma book value in early 1995. The pro forma price/book ratio of 1995 conversions in the second half of 1995, however, escalated to an average price-to-book ratio of 72.4% and a price-to-earnings multiple of 19.0. This compares to the first half of 1995 average price-to-book ratio of 66.6% and a price-to-earnings ratio of 16.2. There have been 49 conversions completed since the beginning of 1996, at an average price-to-book ratio of 69.3% and a price-to-earnings ratio of 20.8. Clearly, the support for new conversions has been strong. Based on discussions with underwriters of recent transactions, it seems that once again the pricing on the conversion market is peaking and investors are beginning to feel that these issues are fully priced. This sentiment is being born out by the one-day and one-week percentage change in stock prices, which in 1996 averaged 9.6% and 9.9%, respectively, compared to an average of 21.4% and 22.0%, respectively, in the second half of 1995. In North Carolina in 1996, excluding Wake Forest FS&LA, MHC, a mutual holding company, there have been four conversions including Green Street Financial Corp., Scotland Bancorp, Inc., Stone Street Bancorp, Inc., and Mitchell Bancorp, Inc. The average price to book ratio is 72.2% and the average price to earnings multiple is 36.3. This average is above the average of all deals for 1996. Excluding the price to earnings multiple of Mitchell Bancorp, Inc. of 94.5, the average price to earnings multiple for the remaining three North Carolina conversions in 1996 is 16.9. The average one week percent change for the four conversions is 18.4%. The Mitchell Bancorp transaction which closed in July 1996 was the lowest price to book ratio of each of the North Carolina conversions in 1996 at 68.1%. This is a further indication that the market for thrift conversions during the month of July had weakened due to the overall stock market conditions. Although the market has weakened, North Carolina thrifts typically have outperformed other out of area thrifts, therefore, we believe an upward adjustment should be made for the new issue discount. Adjustments Conclusion - ---------------------- We believe the Savings Bank's to-be-issued Common Stock should be discounted by 25% to 34% relative to the comparative group. We believe the discount is due, in large part, to the new issue discount needed for a thrift stock offering. With respect to the other factors discussed above, the overall discount is relatively modest. Conversions are often priced at substantial discounts relative to the price/book ratio but near the comparative price earnings ratio. It is the role of the appraiser to balance the price/book and price/earning discounts and premiums. In this instance, the pro forma price/earnings ratio should be placed within the range of the comparative institutions. Valuations Approach - ------------------- Table 22 displays the market valuation characteristics of Richmond Savings and the comparative group as of June 30, 1996. Exhibit V displays the pro forma pricing worksheet for Richmond Savings. We believe that investors continue to make decisions with respect to conversion stock based upon price/book and price/earnings comparisons. The price/assets ratio, we believe, is not currently accorded much weight by investors. Utilizing a price/book discount of approximately 25% to 34% relative to the comparable companies, the resulting pro forma ratio is 73% to 65%. The price/earnings ratio should be within a range of 18 to 16 times recently reported earnings. Based upon a 25% to 34% discount relative to the comparative group price/book ratio, we believe the Savings Bank's pro forma standard conversion value is $14.0 million. This provides for a pro forma price/book ratio of 69.28% at the midpoint. The resulting price/earnings ratio based on the last twelve month's earnings before extraordinary items was 18.3, and last quarter earnings was 20.5 at the midpoint. The range of pro forma price/book ratios was 64.6% to 73.2%, and 77.0% at the adjusted maximum. The range of price/earnings ratios at the minimum and the maximum was 18.2 to 22.7 based upon last quarter earnings and 16.1 to 20.3 based upon last twelve month earnings. Valuation Conclusion - -------------------- It is therefore our opinion that, as of August 8, 1996, the estimated pro forma market value of the Savings Bank's to be issued Common Stock is $14,000,000. The values range from $11,900,000 at the minimum to $16,100,000 at the maximum.

Adjustments Conclusion - ---------------------- We believe the Savings Bank's to-be-issued Common Stock should be discounted by 25% to 34% relative to the comparative group. We believe the discount is due, in large part, to the new issue discount needed for a thrift stock offering. With respect to the other factors discussed above, the overall discount is relatively modest. Conversions are often priced at substantial discounts relative to the price/book ratio but near the comparative price earnings ratio. It is the role of the appraiser to balance the price/book and price/earning discounts and premiums. In this instance, the pro forma price/earnings ratio should be placed within the range of the comparative institutions. Valuation Approach - ------------------ Table 22 displays the market valuation characteristics of Richmond Savings and the comparative group as of June 30, 1996. Exhibit V displays the pro forma pricing worksheet for Richmond Savings. We believe that investors continue to make decisions with respect to conversion stock based upon price/book and price/earnings comparisons. The price/assets ratio, we believe, is not currently accorded much weight by investors. Utilizing a price/book discount of approximately 25% to 34% relative to the comparable companies, the resulting pro forma ratio is 73% to 65%. The price/earnings ratio should be within a range of 18 to 16 times recently reported earnings. Based upon a 25% to 34% discount relative to the comparative group price/book ratio, we believe the Savings Bank's pro forma standard conversion value is $14.0 million. This provides for a pro forma price/book ratio of 69.28% at the midpoint. The resulting price/earnings ratio based on the last twelve months' earnings before extraordinary items was 18.3, and last quarter earnings was 20.5 at the midpoint. The range of pro forma price/book ratios was 64.6% to 73.2%, and 77.0% at the adjusted maximum. The range of price/earnings ratios at the minimum and the maximum was 18.2 to 22.7 based upon last quarter earnings and 16.1 to 20.3 based upon last twelve months earnings.

The net proceeds are invested at the beginning of the applicable period to yield 5.64%. Income taxes were assumed to be 39%, resulting in an after-tax yield of 3.44%. 2. Earnings before extraordinary items were utilized as the earnings base. 3. The Employee Stock Ownership Plan and Trust (ESOP) will purchase 8% of the shares of Common Stock issued in the Conversion. Funds used to acquire the ESOP shares will be borrowed from the Holding Company. The Savings Bank expects to repay the debt over a 10-year period at the prime rate. Appropriate adjustments to pro forma equity and earnings have been incorporated. 4. Management intends to propose for consideration and approval by stockholders at the first annual meeting following the Management Recognition Plan ("MRP") for outside directors and for officers and employees. It is assumed that the MRP will be acquired through open market purchases. 5.
