(the "Parent Company") is a bank holding company incorporated under the laws of the State of North Carolina in 1984. On July 2, 1985, through an exchange of stock, the Parent Company acquired its wholly-owned bank subsidiary, First National Bank and Trust Company (the "Bank"), a national banking association founded in 1907. The Parent Company and the Bank are collectively referred to as the "Corporation". The Bank, a full-service commercial bank, currently conducts all of its operations in Chatham, Montgomery, Moore, Randolph, Richmond and Scotland counties in North Carolina. Four offices, including the main office, are located in Asheboro. Additional community offices are located in Archdale (two offices), Biscoe, Ellerbe, Laurinburg, Ramseur, Randleman, Rockingham (two offices), Seagrove, Siler City, Southern Pines and Trinity. Some of the major banking services offered include regular checking accounts, interest checking accounts (including package account versions that offer a variety of products and services), money market accounts, savings accounts, certificates of deposit, holiday club accounts, individual retirement accounts, debit cards, credit cards and loans, both secured and unsecured, for business, agricultural and personal use. Other services offered include internet banking, cash management, investment and trust services. The Bank also has automated teller machines and is a member of Plus, a national teller machine network, and Star, a regional network. On April 10, 2000, the Corporation completed a merger for the acquisition of Carolina Fincorp, Inc. ("Carolina Fincorp"), holding company for Richmond Savings Bank, Inc., SSB ("Richmond Savings"), headquartered in Rockingham, North Carolina, in a transaction accounted for as a pooling of interests. Pursuant to the terms of the merger, each share of Carolina Fincorp common stock was converted into .79 of a share of FNB Corp. common stock, for a total issuance of 1,478,398 FNB Corp. shares. On June 26, 2000, Richmond Savings was merged into First National Bank and Trust Company. At March 31, 2000, Carolina Fincorp operated five offices through Richmond Savings and had approximately $125,943,000 in total assets, $108,848,000 in deposits and $16,332,000 in shareholders' equity. Merger-related expenses of $2,796,000 were recorded in the second quarter of 2000. Upon the change in control, the Carolina Fincorp ESOP plan terminated according to its terms and unvested MRP shares became fully vested. Included in merger-related expenses were $385,000 of expense related to the termination of these plans. Additionally, approximately $450,000 of the total provision for loan losses of $835,000 in the second quarter was related to aligning the credit risk methodologies of FNB Corp. and Carolina Fincorp. Historical financial information included in the consolidated financial statements has been restated to include the account balances and results of operations of Carolina Fincorp. In connection with the merger of the Bank with Richmond Savings, the Bank acquired a financial subsidiary, Richmond Investment Services, Inc., which changed its name after the acquisition to First National Investor Services, Inc. This financial subsidiary acts as an agent in the sale of annuities, Medicare and Medicaid supplements, and major medical and life insurance policies. It also provides investment brokerage services. Prior to March 26, 1999, the Bank's data processing, item capture and statement rendering operations were outsourced under a service bureau arrangement. Commencing in the 1998 fourth quarter, the Bank began the process of converting these operations to an in-house basis. Conversion to the replacement systems occurred on March 26, 1999. Richmond Savings, however, was on a service bureau arrangement until its merger into the Bank on June 26, 2000. The total capital expenditure outlay for hardware and software amounted to approximately $1,700,000, of which approximately one-half was recorded in 1998 and the remainder in 1999. In addition to capital expenditures for the new system, the Bank incurred certain expenses in 1998, totaling approximately $302,000, related to deconversion from the prior arrangement. In the 1998 fourth quarter, the Bank received regulatory approval for establishment of a new branch office in Trinity, North Carolina. Construction of the permanent Trinity facility is expected to be complete in 2001, resulting in a total capital outlay of approximately $1,000,000, of which approximately one-third was recorded in 1998 related to the purchase of land. Prior to completion of the permanent facility, a temporary mobile office, which opened in August 1999, is being operated at this site. In the 2000 fourth quarter, management adopted a balance sheet restructuring project to reduce the level of lower yielding, 1-4 family residential mortgage loans by selling those loans and redeploying the funds in other types of assets, including specific purchases of bank owned life insurance and a more general redeployment to other loan programs and investment securities. 1-4 family residential mortgage loans totaling $20,938,000 were transferred to loans held for sale, and of that amount, $12,199,000 were sold in 2000 and the remainder were sold in the first quarter of 2001. In December 2000, single premium purchases of life insurance amounting to $10,000,000 were recorded as bank owned life insurance in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet. Income relating to the cash surrender value of the bank owned life insurance will be recorded as noninterest income, while the loans sold had generated interest income. The effective reduction of interest income will tend to lower the net yield on earning assets and net interest spread in future periods. Management believes that the income resulting from the bank owned life insurance, which is not subject to income tax, will produce a greater contribution to net income than did the income from the loans sold. Competition The commercial banking industry within the Bank's marketing area is extremely competitive. The Bank faces direct competition in Chatham, Montgomery, Moore, Randolph, Richmond and Scotland counties from approximately twenty-one different financial institutions, including commercial banks, savings institutions and credit unions. Although none of these entities is dominant, the Bank considers itself one of the major financial institutions in the area in terms of total assets and deposits. Further competition is provided by banks located in adjoining counties, as well as other types of financial institutions such as insurance companies, finance companies, pension funds and brokerage houses and other money funds. The principal methods of competing in the commercial banking industry are improving customer service through the quality and range of services provided, improving cost efficiencies and pricing services competitively. Supervision and Regulation The following discussion sets forth a summary of some of the material statutes and regulations applicable to FNB and its subsidiaries. Further information is provided under the heading "Capital Adequacy" in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" below. The summaries do not purport to be comprehensive. The regulatory framework is intended primarily for the protection of depositors and not for the protection of security holders. The Parent Company is a bank holding company within the meaning of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "BHC Act"), and is registered as such with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve Board"). A bank holding company is required to file with the Federal Reserve Board annual reports and other information regarding its business operations and those of its subsidiaries. It is also subject to examination by the Federal Reserve Board and is required to obtain Federal Reserve Board approval prior to acquiring, direct or indirect ownership or control of more than five percent of the voting shares of any bank; acquiring all or substantially all of the assets of any bank; or merging or consolidating with any other bank holding company. In addition, the BHC Act prohibits a bank holding company that does not qualify as a financial holding company under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999 ("GLB Act"), as more fully discussed below, from engaging in activities other than banking, managing, or controlling banks or other permissible subsidiaries; and acquiring or retaining direct or indirect control of any company engaged in any activities determined by the Federal Reserve Board to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto. In determining whether a particular activity is permissible, the Federal Reserve Board considers whether the performance of such an activity reasonably can be expected to produce benefits to the public that outweigh possible adverse effects. Possible benefits the Federal Reserve Board considers include greater convenience, increased competition, or gains in efficiency. Possible adverse effects include undue concentration of resources, decreased or unfair competition, conflicts of interest, or unsound banking practices. Activities that the Federal Reserve Board has permitted for bank holding companies include: (1) making, acquiring or servicing loans or other extensions of credit such as consumer finance, credit card, mortgage, commercial finance and factoring companies would make; (2) acting as an investment or financial advisor; (3) leasing real or personal property or acting as agent, broker, or advisor in leasing such property if the lease is to serve as the functional equivalent of an extension of credit to the lessee of the property and certain other conditions are met; (4) providing bookkeeping or data processing services under certain circumstances; (5) acting as an insurance agent or broker with respect to insurance that is directly related to the extension of credit with other financial services; (6) acting as an underwriter for credit life insurance and credit accident and health insurance directly related to extensions of credit by the holding company system; and (7) providing securities brokerage services and related securities credit activities. As a national banking association, the Bank is subject to regulatory supervision, of which regular bank examinations by the Comptroller of the Currency are a part. The Bank is a member of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC"), which currently insures the deposits of each member bank to a maximum of $100,000 per depositor. For this protection, each bank pays a quarterly statutory assessment and is subject to the rules and regulations of the FDIC. The Bank is also a member of the Federal Reserve System and is therefore subject to the applicable provisions of the Federal Reserve Act, which imposes restrictions on loans by subsidiary banks to a holding company and its other subsidiaries and on the use of stock or securities as collateral security for loans by subsidiary banks to any borrower. The GLB Act, signed into law in November 1999, establishes a comprehensive framework to permit affiliations among commercial banks, insurance companies, securities firms and other financial service providers. The GLB Act allows bank holding companies meeting management, capital and Community Reinvestment Act standards to engage in a substantially broader range of nonbanking activities than was permissible prior to enactment, including insurance underwriting and making merchant banking investments in commercial and financial companies; allows insurers and other financial services companies to acquire banks; removes various restrictions that applied to bank holding ownership of securities firms and mutual fund advisory companies; and establishes the overall regulatory structure applicable to bank holding companies that also engage in insurance and securities operations. The act also broadens the activities that may be conducted by national banks, banking subsidiaries of bank holding companies and their financial subsidiaries and provides an enhanced framework for protecting the privacy of consumer information. In addition and in a change from prior law, bank holding companies will be in a position to be owned, controlled or acquired by any company engaged in financially related activities. The ability of the Parent Company to pay dividends depends to a large extent upon the amount of dividends the Bank pays to the Parent Company. Approval of the Comptroller of the Currency, or his designate, will be required for any dividend to the Parent Company by the Bank if the total of all dividends, including any proposed dividend, declared by the Bank in any calendar year exceeds the total of its net profits for that year combined with its retained net profits for the preceding two years, less any required transfers to surplus or a fund for the retirement of any preferred stock. Effect of Governmental Policies The operations and earnings of the Bank and, therefore, of the Parent Company are affected by legislative changes and by the policies of various regulatory agencies. In particular, the Bank is affected by the monetary and fiscal policies of the Federal Reserve Board. The instruments of monetary policy used by the Federal Reserve Board include its open market operations in U.S. Government securities, changes in the discount rate on member bank borrowings, and changes in reserve requirements on member bank deposits. The actions of the Federal Reserve Board influence the growth of bank loans, investments and deposits and also affect interest rates charged on loans or paid on deposits. Employees As of December 31, 2000, the Parent Company had three officers, all of whom were also officers of the Bank. On that same date, the Bank had 187 full-time employees and 23 part-time employees. The Bank considers its relationship with its employees to be excellent. The Bank provides employee benefit programs, including a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan, matching retirement/savings (401(k)) plan, group life, health and dental insurance, paid vacations, sick leave, and health care and life insurance benefits for retired employees. Properties The main offices of the Bank and the principal executive offices of the Parent Company are located in an office building at 101 Sunset Avenue, Asheboro, North Carolina. The premises contain approximately 36,500 square feet of office space. The Bank also has other community offices in Asheboro (three offices), Archdale (two offices), Biscoe, Ellerbe, Laurinburg, Ramseur, Randleman, Rockingham (two offices), Seagrove, Siler City, Southern Pines and Trinity, North Carolina. Except as noted below, all premises are owned by the Bank in fee. The Randolph Mall office in Asheboro is under a lease expiring January 31, 2002. The Bush Hill office in Archdale is under a lease expiring January 31, 2002, with lease renewal options for up to an additional 20-year term. The Laurinburg office is under a lease expiring February 28, 2002. The land on which the Seagrove office is situated is under a lease expiring June 30, 2016. At that time, the land is subject to a purchase option at a fixed price or lease renewal options for up to an additional 30-year term. FNB CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY FIVE YEAR FINANCIAL HISTORY (1)

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations The purpose of this discussion and analysis is to assist in the understanding and evaluation of the financial condition, changes in financial condition and results of operations of FNB Corp. (the "Parent Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiary, First National Bank and Trust Company (the "Bank"), collectively referred to as the "Corporation". This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and supplemental financial information appearing elsewhere in this report. Overview On April 10, 2000, the Corporation completed a merger for the acquisition of Carolina Fincorp, Inc. ("Carolina Fincorp"), holding company for Richmond Savings Bank, Inc., SSB ("Richmond Savings"), headquartered in Rockingham, North Carolina, in a transaction accounted for as a pooling of interests. Pursuant to the terms of the merger, each share of Carolina Fincorp common stock was converted into .79 of a share of FNB Corp. common stock, for a total issuance of 1,478,398 FNB Corp. shares. On June 26, 2000, Richmond Savings was merged into First National Bank and Trust Company. At March 31, 2000, Carolina Fincorp operated five offices through Richmond Savings and had approximately $125,943,000 in total assets, $108,848,000 in deposits and $16,332,000 in shareholders' equity. Merger-related expenses of $2,796,000 were recorded in the second quarter of 2000. Upon the change in control, the Carolina Fincorp ESOP plan terminated according to its terms and unvested MRP shares became fully vested. Included in merger-related expenses were $385,000 of expense related to the termination of these plans. Additionally, approximately $450,000 of the total provision for loan losses of $835,000 in the second quarter was related to aligning the credit risk methodologies of FNB Corp. and Carolina Fincorp. Historical financial information included in the consolidated financial statements has been restated to include the account balances and results of operations of Carolina Fincorp. The Corporation earned $3,516,000 in 2000, a 37.1% decrease in net income from 1999. Basic earnings per share decreased from $1.11 in 1999 to $.70 in 2000 and diluted earnings per share decreased from $1.09 to $.69. Total assets were $565,639,000 at December 31, 2000, up 9.3% from year-end 1999. Loans amounted to $395,737,000 at December 31, 2000, up 9.7% from the prior year. Total deposits grew 10.6% to $472,448,000 in 2000. Excluding $2,338,000 in after-tax charges associated with the merger, which includes the $450,000 provision for loan losses discussed above, net income for 2000 amounted to $5,854,000, a 4.7% increase over 1999, with basic and diluted earnings per share amounts of $1.16 and $1.15, respectively. Earnings Review After exclusion of after-tax, merger-related charges of $2,338,000 recorded in the second quarter of 2000 and associated with the merger with Carolina Fincorp as discussed in the "Overview", the Corporation's net income increased $264,000 in 2000, up 4.7% over 1999. Earnings were positively impacted in 2000 by increases of $1,409,000 or 7.2% in net interest income and $433,000 in noninterest income. These gains were significantly offset, however, by an increase of $619,000 in noninterest expense and by an increase of $841,000 in the provision for loan losses, excluding merger-related charges. Results for 2000 were negatively affected by a special group medical insurance assessment of $176,000 recorded in the second quarter, the effect of which was only partially offset by a $76,000 gain on the sale of an investment recorded in the same quarter. The Corporation's net income decreased $41,000 in 1999, down 0.7% from 1998. Earnings were positively impacted in 1999 by increases of $221,000 or 1.1% in net interest income and $312,000 in noninterest income. These gains were more than offset, however, by an increase of $609,000 in noninterest expense and by an increase of $29,000 in the provision for loan losses. Special noninterest expense charges, relating to a major data processing conversion, significantly affected the 1998 fourth quarter operating results, such charges amounting to $302,000 during that period, and to a lesser extent affected the 1999 operating results, especially in the first quarter. Excluding the merger-related charges, return on average assets declined from 1.23% in 1998 to 1.15% in 1999 to 1.08% in 2000. Return on average shareholders' equity improved from 9.55% in 1988 to 10.85% in 1999 to 10.97% in 2000. Including the effect of the merger-related charges, return on average assets was .65% in 2000 and return on average shareholders' equity was 6.59%. Net Interest Income Net interest income is the difference between interest income, principally from loans and investments, and interest expense, principally on customer deposits. Changes in net interest income result from changes in interest rates and in the volume, or average dollar level, and mix of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income was $21,028,000 in 2000 compared to $19,619,000 in 1999. The increase of $1,409,000 or 7.2% resulted primarily from a 11.7% increase in the level of average earning assets, the effect of which was partially offset by a decline in the net yield on earning assets, or net interest margin, from 4.48% in 1999 to 4.28% in 2000. In 1999, there was a $221,000 or 1.1% increase in net interest income reflecting a 6.5% increase in average earning assets, the effect of which was largely offset by a decline in the net interest margin from 4.71% in 1998. On a taxable equivalent basis, the increases in net interest income in 2000 and 1999 were $1,377,000 and $271,000, respectively, reflecting changes in the relative mix of taxable and non-taxable earning assets in each year. Table 1 sets forth for the periods indicated information with respect to the Corporation's average balances of assets and liabilities, as well as the total dollar amounts of interest income (taxable equivalent basis) from earning assets and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, resultant rates earned or paid, net interest income, net interest spread and net yield on earning assets. Net interest spread refers to the difference between the average yield on earning assets and the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Net yield on earning assets, or net interest margin, refers to net interest income divided by average earning assets and is influenced by the level and relative mix of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.

(2) Nonaccrual loans are included in the average loan balance. Loan fees and the incremental direct costs associated with making loans are deferred and subsequently recognized over the life of the loan as an adjustment of interest income.
Changes in the net interest margin and net interest spread tend to correlate with movements in the prime rate of interest. There are variations, however, in the degree and timing of rate changes, compared to prime, for the different types of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The average prime rate of interest has remained in a fairly narrow band in recent years, amounting to 9.21%, 7.99% and 8.37% in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. This situation has tended to create a degree of stability in the interest rates both earned and paid by the Bank. Nonetheless, the actual level of the prime rate has changed with some frequency as the Federal Reserve has responded to various economic scenarios. After remaining unchanged in the first three quarters of 1998, a significant change occurred in the level of the prime rate during the last three months of that year when the Federal Reserve took action in response to the downturn of the economies of certain Asian and Latin American countries and the effects or potential effects of those downturns on the U.S. economy. In rapid succession, three 25 basis point cuts were recorded in the prime rate, lowering it from 8.50% to 7.75%. This decrease in the prime rate, through the effect on the average yield on total earning assets, tended to negatively impact the Corporation's net interest margin and net interest spread. Due to subsequent concern about inflationary pressures that appeared to be building in the U. S. economy, the Federal Reserve elected to raise the level of interest rates in the third and fourth quarters of 1999, resulting in three 25 basis point increases in the prime rate that raised it from 7.75% to 8.50%, thereby effectively reversing the rate reductions that had occurred in 1998. Continued concerns about possible inflationary pressures caused the Federal Reserve to further raise the level of interest rates in the first six months of 2000, resulting in two additional 25 basis point increases and one 50 basis point increase in the prime rate that raised it to the 9.50% level. While the Corporation has tended to see some improvement in the average total yield on earning assets due to the prime rate increases, the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities has increased by a greater amount, which has further negatively impacted the net interest margin and net interest spread. In 2000, the net interest spread declined by 27 basis points from 3.81% in 1999 to 3.54% in 2000, reflecting the effect of an increase in the average total yield on earning assets that was more than offset by an increase in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, or cost of funds. The yield on earning assets increased by 33 basis points from 8.00% in 1999 to 8.33% in 2000, while the cost of funds increased by 60 basis points in moving from 4.19% to 4.79%. In 1999, the 8 basis points decrease in net interest spread resulted from a 34 basis points decrease in the yield on earning assets as partially offset by a 26 basis points decrease in the cost of funds. The 2000 and 1999 changes in net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis, as measured by volume and rate variances, are analyzed in Table 2. Volume refers to the average dollar level of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Table 2 Volume and Rate Variance Analysis

(2) Interest income related to certain investment securities and loans exempt from both federal and state income tax or from state income tax alone is stated on a fully taxable equivalent basis, assuming a 34% federal tax rate and applicable state tax rate, reduced by the nondeductible portion of interest expense.
Provision for Loan Losses This provision is the charge against earnings to provide an allowance or reserve for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The amount of each year's charge is affected by several considerations including management's evaluation of various risk factors in determining the adequacy of the allowance (see "Asset Quality"), actual loan loss experience and loan portfolio growth. Earnings were negatively impacted in 2000 by a $1,802,000 provision for loan losses compared to a $511,000 provision in 1999. Of the total 2000 provision, $835,000 was recorded in the second quarter, which amount included approximately $450,000 that was merger related as discussed below, while the remainder resulted from additional loan writedowns and charge-offs taken in the same quarter. The additional increase in the provision for 2000 was due to continued loan growth, higher loan losses and uncertain economic conditions. The allowance for loan losses, as a percentage of loans outstanding and reflecting the restatement of historical information for the merger, amounted to 1.13% at December 31, 2000, .91% at December 31, 1999 and .95% at December 31, 1998. The increase in the allowance percentage from December 31, 1999 to December 31, 2000 resulted largely from the provision component of approximately $450,000 for the second quarter of 2000 to align the credit risk methodologies of FNB Corp. and Carolina Fincorp. Noninterest Income Noninterest income increased $433,000 or 10.6% in 2000 and $312,000 or 8.3% in 1999, reflecting in part the general increase in the volume of business. The increase in service charges on deposit accounts in 2000 was primarily due to improved fee collection efforts in 2000, but also reflected the implementation for a full year of the selected increases in service charge rates that became effective in the 1999 first quarter. The 1999 increase in service charges on deposit accounts primarily reflected the rate increases that became effective in the 1999 first quarter. The decrease in annuity and brokerage commissions in 2000 related to a general decrease in both sales of annuity products and the volume of brokerage services, while the opposite was true in 1999 when such commissions increased. Other income was impacted in 2000 by a $76,000 gain on the sale of an investment. Noninterest Expense Excluding merger-related expenses of $2,796,000 recorded in the second quarter of 2000, noninterest expense was $619,000 or 4.1% higher in 2000 due largely to increased personnel expense and the continuing effects of inflation. The level of noninterest expense was further affected by the opening of a new branch office in August 1999 (see "Business Development Matters"). The components of noninterest expense were affected by the major data processing conversion completed in the first quarter of 1999, which conversion ultimately resulted in a major reduction in the cost of data processing services provided by outside processors. The cost of outside data processing services continued for Richmond Savings until its merger into First National Bank and Trust Company on June 26, 2000. Personnel expense was impacted by increased staffing requirements, especially as related to the data processing conversion and to the opening of the new branch office, and by normal salary adjustments. Personnel expense was further negatively affected in 2000 by a special group medical insurance assessment of $176,000 in the second quarter. Additionally, group medical insurance rates were increased approximately 39% in the 2000 second quarter. Furniture and equipment expense increased largely as a result of the data processing conversion, especially for depreciation and maintenance charges. The major data processing conversion from a service bureau arrangement to an in-house basis, completed on March 26, 1999 and discussed in "Business Development Matters", significantly affected operating results for the 1999 first quarter. The cost of data processing services in the 1999 first quarter was impacted by the higher rate charged by the service bureau on a month-to-month basis, subsequent to the termination of the prior long-term agreement in late 1998. Also, personnel expense was negatively affected by the staffing and training requirements that were preliminary to the implementation of the new system. Subsequent to the 1999 first quarter, the total cost related to data processing operations on an in-house basis compares favorably to the cost that was being experienced under the service bureau arrangement prior to the start of the conversion process in the 1998 fourth quarter. Noninterest expense components are being significantly affected, however, as there is a major decrease in the direct cost of data processing services, but increases in the levels of personnel expense and furniture and equipment expense. Noninterest expense was $609,000 or 4.2% higher in 1999 due largely to increased personnel expense, the effect of a major data processing conversion (as discussed above) and the continuing effects of inflation. The level of noninterest expense was further affected by the opening of a new branch office in August 1999, as noted above. Personnel expense was impacted by increased staffing requirements, especially as related to the data processing conversion and the opening of the new branch office, and by normal salary adjustments. Net occupancy expense was affected by increased maintenance charges. Furniture and equipment expense increased largely as a result of the data processing conversion, especially for depreciation charges. Merger-Related Expenses and Charges In connection with the merger acquisition of Carolina Fincorp, merger-related expenses of $2,796,000 were recorded in the second quarter of 2000. Upon the change in control, the Carolina Fincorp ESOP plan terminated according to its terms and unvested restricted stock plan shares became fully vested, resulting in certain expenses considered merger-related. Other primary components of merger-related expenses were professional fees, investment banking fees, contract termination costs, data processing conversion fees and severance payments. Additionally, approximately $450,000 of the total provision for loan losses of $835,000 in the second quarter was related to aligning the credit risk methodologies of FNB Corp. and Carolina Fincorp. The primary components of merger-related expenses are summarized in Table 3. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table 3 Merger-Related Expenses 2000 ---- (in thousands) Professional fees $ 569 Investment banking fees 558 Contract termination costs 467 ESOP and restricted stock plan termination costs 385 Data processing conversion fees 209 Severance payments 161 Other merger expenses 447 ------ Total $2,796 ====== -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Income Taxes The effective income tax rate increased from 30.9% in 1999 to 32.8% in 2000 due principally to the nondeductibility of certain merger-related expenses. Reflecting a reduction in the state income tax rate, the effective income tax rate declined from 31.3% in 1998 to 30.9% in 1999. Liquidity Liquidity refers to the continuing ability of the Bank to meet deposit withdrawals, fund loan and capital expenditure commitments, maintain reserve requirements, pay operating expenses and provide funds to the Parent Company for payment of dividends, debt service and other operational requirements. Liquidity is immediately available from five major sources: (a) cash on hand and on deposit at other banks, (b) the outstanding balance of federal funds sold, (c) lines for the purchase of federal funds from other banks, (d) the $67,800,000 line of credit established at the Federal Home Loan Bank, less existing advances against that line, and (e) the available-for-sale securities portfolio. Further, while available-for-sale securities are intended to be a source of immediate liquidity, the entire investment securities portfolio is managed to provide both income and a ready source of liquidity. All debt securities are of investment grade quality and, if the need arises, can be promptly liquidated on the open market or pledged as collateral for short-term borrowing. Consistent with its approach to liquidity, the Bank as a matter of policy does not solicit or accept brokered deposits for funding asset growth. Instead, loans and other assets are based primarily on a core of local deposits and the Bank's capital position. To date, the steady increase in deposits, retail repurchase agreements and capital, supplemented by Federal Home Loan Bank advances, has been adequate to fund loan demand in the Bank's market area, while maintaining the desired level of immediate liquidity and a substantial investment securities portfolio available for both immediate and secondary liquidity purposes. Asset/Liability Management and Interest Rate Sensitivity One of the primary objectives of asset/liability management is to maximize net interest margin while minimizing the earnings risk associated with changes in interest rates. One method used to manage interest rate sensitivity is to measure, over various time periods, the interest rate sensitivity positions, or gaps; however, this method addresses only the magnitude of timing differences and does not address earnings or market value. Therefore, management uses an earnings simulation model to prepare, on a regular basis, earnings projections based on a range of interest rate scenarios in order to more accurately measure interest rate risk. The Bank's balance sheet was liability-sensitive at December 31, 2000. A liability-sensitive position means that in gap measurement periods of one year or less there are more liabilities than assets subject to immediate repricing as market rates change. Because immediately rate sensitive interest-bearing liabilities exceed rate sensitive assets, the earnings position could improve in a declining rate environment and could deteriorate in a rising rate environment, depending on the correlation of rate changes in these two categories. Included in interest-bearing liabilities subject to rate changes within 90 days is a portion of the interest-bearing demand, savings and money market deposits. These types of deposits historically have not repriced coincidentally with or in the same proportion as general market indicators. Table 4 presents information about the periods in which the interest-sensitive assets and liabilities at December 31, 2000 will either mature or be subject to repricing in accordance with market rates, and the resulting interest-sensitivity gaps. This table shows the sensitivity of the balance sheet at one point in time and is not necessarily indicative of what the sensitivity will be on other dates. As a simplifying assumption concerning repricing behavior, 50% of the interest-bearing demand, savings and money market deposits are assumed to reprice immediately and 50% are assumed to reprice beyond one year.

Market Risk Market risk reflects the risk of economic loss resulting from adverse changes in market price and interest rates. This risk of loss can be reflected in diminished current market values and/or reduced potential net interest income in future periods. The Bank's market risk arises primarily from interest rate risk inherent in its lending and deposit-taking activities. The structure of the Bank's loan and deposit portfolios is such that a significant decline in interest rates may adversely impact net market values and net interest income. The Bank does not maintain a trading account nor is the Bank subject to currency exchange risk or commodity price risk. Interest rate risk is monitored as part of the Bank's asset/liability management function, which is discussed in "Asset/Liability Management and Interest Rate Sensitivity" above. Table 5 presents information about the contractual maturities, average interest rates and estimated fair values of financial instruments considered market risk sensitive at December 31, 2000.

(2) Debt securities are reported on the basis of amortized cost. Mortgage-backed securities which have monthly curtailments of principal are categorized by final maturity. (3) Nonaccrual loans are included in the balance of loans. The allowance for loan losses is excluded.
Capital Adequacy Under guidelines established by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, capital adequacy is currently measured for regulatory purposes by certain risk-based capital ratios, supplemented by a leverage capital ratio. The risk-based capital ratios are determined by expressing allowable capital amounts, defined in terms of Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3, as a percentage of risk-weighted assets, which are computed by measuring the relative credit risk of both the asset categories on the balance sheet and various off-balance sheet exposures. Tier 1 capital consists primarily of common shareholders' equity and qualifying perpetual preferred stock, net of goodwill and other disallowed intangible assets. Tier 2 capital, which is limited to the total of Tier 1 capital, includes allowable amounts of subordinated debt, mandatory convertible debt, preferred stock and the allowance for loan losses. Tier 3 capital, applicable only to financial institutions subject to certain market risk capital guidelines, is capital allocated to support the market risk related to a financial institution's ongoing trading activities. At December 31, 2000, FNB Corp. and the Bank were not subject to the market risk capital guidelines and, accordingly, had no Tier 3 capital allocation. Total capital, for risk-based purposes, consists of the sum of Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3 capital. Under current requirements, the minimum total capital ratio is 8.00% and the minimum Tier 1 capital ratio is 4.00%. At December 31, 2000, FNB Corp. and the Bank had total capital ratios of 15.15% and 14.69%, respectively, and Tier 1 capital ratios of 14.05% and 13.58%. The leverage capital ratio, which serves as a minimum capital standard, considers Tier 1 capital only and is expressed as a percentage of average total assets for the most recent quarter, after reduction of those assets for goodwill and other disallowed intangible assets at the measurement date. As currently required, the minimum leverage capital ratio is 4.00%. At December 31, 2000, FNB Corp. and the Bank had leverage capital ratios of 9.92% and 9.58%, respectively. The Bank is also required to comply with prompt corrective action provisions established by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act. To be categorized as well-capitalized, the Bank must have a minimum ratio for total capital of 10.00%, for Tier 1 capital of 6.00% and for leverage capital of 5.00%. As noted above, the Bank met all of those ratio requirements at December 31, 2000 and, accordingly, is well-capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. Balance Sheet Review Asset growth was slightly higher in 2000 than in 1999. Total assets increased $48,171,000 or 9.3% in 2000 compared to $45,280,000 or 9.6% in 1999. Deposits grew $45,438,000 or 10.6% and $26,792,000 or 6.7%, respectively, in the same periods. Retail repurchase agreements increased $534,000 in 2000 after declining $817,000 in 1999. A portion of the 1999 asset growth was funded by initial advances totaling $15,000,000 from the Federal Home Loan Bank, which was also the level of these advances at December 31, 2000. The average asset growth rates were 11.0% in 2000 and 6.4% in 1999. The corresponding average deposit growth rates were 11.5% and 6.4%. Certain balance sheet restructuring matters are discussed in "Business Development Matters". Investment Securities Investments are carried on the consolidated balance sheet at estimated fair value for available-for-sale securities and at amortized cost for held-to-maturity securities.

Additions to the investment securities portfolio depend to a large extent on the availability of investable funds that are not otherwise needed to satisfy loan demand. Because the growth in total assets exceeded that for loans in 2000 and as investments were further impacted by the balance sheet restructuring matters discussed in "Business Development Matters", the level of investment securities was increased $12,598,000 or 10.5%. In 1999, when the growth in loans exceeded that for total assets, there was a net decrease of $1,685,000 or 1.4% in the level of investment securities. Investable funds not otherwise utilized are temporarily invested on an overnight basis as federal funds sold, the level of which is affected by such considerations as near-term loan demand and liquidity needs. Based on funds requirements, the Bank was a net purchaser of funds at December 31, 2000. Loans The Corporation's primary source of revenue and largest component of earning assets is the loan portfolio. Loans experienced growth of $34,897,000 or 9.7% in 2000 and $46,001,000 or 14.6% in 1999. Average loans increased $56,849,000 or 17.3% and $20,837,000 or 6.8%, respectively. The ratio of average loans to average deposits increased from 80.6% in 1999 to 84.8% in 2000. The ratio of loans to deposits at December 31, 2000 was 83.8%. Table 7 sets forth the major categories of loans for each of the last five years. The maturity distribution and interest sensitivity of selected loan categories at December 31, 2000 are presented in Table 8. Table 7 Loan Portfolio Composition

An increase was also recorded for lease financing contracts, a new loan product added in 1999. Loan growth and the composition of the loan portfolio, especially for 1-4 family residential mortgage loans, are being affected by certain balance sheet restructuring matters as discussed in "Business Development Matters". Asset Quality Management considers the Bank's asset quality to be of primary importance. A formal loan review function, independent of loan origination, is used to identify and monitor problem loans. As part of the loan review function, a third party assessment group is employed to review the underwriting documentation and risk grading analysis. In determining the allowance for loan losses and any resulting provision to be charged against earnings, particular emphasis is placed on the results of the loan review process. Consideration is also given to historical loan loss experience, the value and adequacy of collateral, and economic conditions in the Bank's market area. For loans determined to be impaired, the allowance is based on discounted cash flows using the loan's initial effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral for certain collateral dependent loans. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates, including the amounts and timing of future cash flows expected to be received on impaired loans that may be susceptible to significant change. The unallocated portion of the allowance for loan losses represents management's estimate of the appropriate level of reserve to provide for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Considerations in determining the unallocated portion of the allowance for loan losses include general economic and lending trends and other factors. Management's policy in regard to past due loans is conservative and normally requires a prompt charge-off to the allowance for loan losses following timely collection efforts and a thorough review. Further efforts are then pursued through various means available. Loans carried in a nonaccrual status are generally collateralized and the possibility of future losses is considered in the determination of the allowance for loan losses. At December 31, 2000, the Bank had impaired loans which totaled $321,000 and were also on nonaccrual status. The related allowance for loan losses on these loans amounted to $73,000. At December 31, 1999 the Bank had impaired loans which totaled $1,420,000 and were also on nonaccrual status. The related allowance for loan losses on these loans amounted to $289,000. Table 9 presents an analysis of the changes in the allowance for loan losses and of the level of nonperforming assets for each of the last five years. Information about management's allocation of the allowance for loan losses by loan category is presented in Table 10. Table 9 Allowance for Loan Losses and Nonperforming Assets

Deposits The level and mix of deposits is affected by various factors, including general economic conditions, the particular circumstances of local markets and the specific deposit strategies employed. In general, broad interest rate declines tend to encourage customers to consider alternative investments such as mutual funds and tax-deferred annuity products, while interest rate increases tend to have the opposite effect. The Bank's level and mix of deposits has been specifically affected by the following factors. Time deposits, reflecting the effect of promotions for premium-rate certificates of deposits and the increase in time deposits obtained from governmental units, grew $43,867,000 in 2000 and $23,488,000 in 1999, accounting for the majority of total deposit growth in each year. The level of time deposits obtained from governmental units amounted to $46,800,000, $39,179,000 and $26,555,000 at December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Money market deposits increased $1,974,000 in 2000 and $5,247,000 in 1999 due to a high-yield product that has had steady growth since its introduction in 1996. Table 11 shows the year-end and average deposit balances for the years 2000, 1999 and 1998 and the changes in 2000 and 1999. Table 11 Analysis of Deposits

Business Development Matters As discussed in the "Overview" and in Note 2 to Consolidated Financial Statements, the Corporation completed a merger on April 10, 2000 for the acquisition of Carolina Fincorp, Inc. ("Carolina Fincorp"), holding company for Richmond Savings Bank, Inc., SSB ("Richmond Savings"), headquartered in Rockingham, North Carolina, in a transaction accounted for as a pooling of interests. Prior to March 26, 1999, the Bank's data processing, item capture and statement rendering operations were outsourced under a service bureau arrangement. Commencing in the 1998 fourth quarter, the Bank began the process of converting these operations to an in-house basis. Conversion to the replacement systems occurred on March 26, 1999. Richmond Savings, however, was on a service bureau arrangement until its merger into the Bank on June 26, 2000. The total capital expenditure outlay for hardware and software amounted to approximately $1,700,000, of which approximately one-half was recorded in 1998 and the remainder in 1999. In addition to capital expenditures for the new system, the Bank incurred certain expenses in 1998, totaling approximately $302,000, related to deconversion from the prior arrangement. In the 1998 fourth quarter, the Bank received regulatory approval for establishment of a new branch office in Trinity, North Carolina. Construction of the permanent Trinity facility is expected to be complete in 2001, resulting in a total capital outlay of approximately $1,000,000, of which approximately one-third was recorded in 1998 related to the purchase of land. Prior to completion of the permanent facility, a temporary mobile office, which opened in August 1999, is being operated at this site. In the 2000 fourth quarter, management adopted a balance sheet restructuring project to reduce the level of lower yielding, 1-4 family residential mortgage loans by selling those loans and redeploying the funds in other types of assets, including specific purchases of bank owned life insurance and a more general redeployment to other loan programs and investment securities. 1-4 family residential mortgage loans totaling $20,938,000 were transferred to loans held for sale, and of that amount, $12,199,000 were sold in 2000 and the remainder were sold in the first quarter of 2001. In December 2000, single premium purchases of life insurance amounting to $10,000,000 were recorded as bank owned life insurance in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet. Income relating to the cash surrender value of the bank owned life insurance will be recorded as noninterest income, while the loans sold had generated interest income. The effective reduction of interest income will tend to lower the net yield on earning assets and net interest spread in future periods. Management believes that the income resulting from the bank owned life insurance, which is not subject to income tax, will produce a greater contribution to net income than did the income from the loans sold. Accounting Pronouncement Matters On January 1, 2001, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", as further amended by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Financial Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 138" (collectively referred to as "SFAS No. 133"). This statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. As permitted by SFAS No. 133, on January 1, 2001, the Corporation transferred all of its securities from the held-to-maturity portfolio to the available-for-sale portfolio as follows: Securities Transferred ------------------------------ Estimated Pretax Amorized Fair Gain Cost Value (Loss) ------- ------- ------ (in thousands) U.S. Government agencies and corporations $36,089 $35,759 $(330) Mortgage-backed securities 483 488 5 State, county and municipal 19,735 20,352 617 Other debt securities 3,054 3,128 74 ------- ------- ----- Total $59,361 $59,727 $ 366 ======= ======= ===== As of January 1, 2001, the transfer of the securities had a net of tax effect of $242,000 on other comprehensive income. On January 1, 2001, the Company had no embedded derivative instruments requiring separate accounting treatment and had identified fixed rate conforming loan commitments as its only freestanding derivative instruments. The fair value of these commitments was mot material and therefore the adoption of SFAS No. 133 on January 1, 2001, is not expected to have a material impact on the Corporation's consolidated financial statements. The FASB has issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities" ("SFAS 140"). This statement replaces SFAS No. 125 ("Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities") and revises the standards for accounting for securitizations and other transfers of financial assets and collateral and requires certain disclosures, but it carries over most of the provisions of SFAS No. 125 without consideration. SFAS No. 140 provides accounting and reporting standards for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities, based on application of a financial components approach that focuses on control. SFAS No. 140 is effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities occurring after March 2001. Adoption of SFAS No. 140 is not expected to have a material impact on the Corporation's consolidated financial statements. Effects of Inflation The operations of the Bank and therefore of the Corporation are subject to the effects of inflation through interest rate fluctuations and changes in the general price level of noninterest operating expenses. Such costs as salaries, fringe benefits and utilities have tended to increase at a rate comparable to or even greater than the general rate of inflation. Broadly speaking, all operating expenses have risen to higher levels as inflationary pressures have increased. Management has responded to this situation by evaluating and adjusting fees charged for specific services and by emphasizing operating efficiencies. The level of interest rates is also considered to be influenced by inflation, rising whenever inflationary expectations and the actual level of inflation increase and declining whenever the inflationary outlook appears to be improving. Management constantly monitors this situation, attempting to adjust both rates received on earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities in order to maintain the desired net yield on earning assets. Cautionary Statement for Purpose of the "Safe Harbor" Provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 The statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements (as such term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995), which can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "believes", "expects", "plans", "projects", "goals", "estimates", "may", "could", "should", or "anticipates" or the negative thereof or other variations thereon of comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy that involve risks and uncertainties. In addition, from time to time, the Corporation or its representatives have made or may make forward-looking statements, orally or in writing. Such forward-looking statements may be included in, but are not limited to, various filings made by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or press releases or oral statements made by or with the approval of an authorized executive officer of the Corporation. Forward-looking statements are based on management's current views and assumptions and involve risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect expected results. The Corporation wishes to caution the reader that factors, such as those listed below, in some cases have affected and could affect the Corporation's actual results, causing actual results to differ materially from those in any forward-looking statement. These factors include: (i) competitive pressure in the banking industry or in the Corporation's markets may increase significantly, (ii) changes in the interest rate environment may reduce margins, (iii) general economic conditions, either nationally or regionally, may be less favorable than expected, resulting in, among other things, credit quality deterioration, (iv) changes may occur in banking legislation and in the environment, (v) changes may occur in general business conditions and inflation and (vi) changes may occur in the securities markets.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of FNB Corp. and subsidiary as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity and comprehensive income and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2000. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of FNB Corp. and subsidiary as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2000, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements. FNB CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Nature of Operations/Consolidation FNB Corp. is a one-bank holding company whose wholly-owned subsidiary is the First National Bank and Trust Company (the "Bank"). The Bank, which has one wholly-owned subsidiary, First National Investor Services, Inc., offers a complete line of financial services, including loan, deposit, cash management, investment and trust services, to individual and business customers primarily in the region of North Carolina that includes Chatham, Montgomery, Moore, Randolph, Richmond and Scotland counties. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of FNB Corp. and the Bank (collectively the "Corporation"). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The chief operating decision maker reviews the results of operations of the Corporation and its subsidiary as a single enterprise. The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. As discussed in Note 2 below, the Corporation in 2000 completed a merger for the acquisition of Carolina Fincorp, Inc. in a transaction accounted for as a pooling of interests. Historical financial information included in these consolidated financial statements has been restated to include the account balances and results of operations of Carolina Fincorp, Inc. Cash and Cash Equivalents For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks, and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are purchased and sold for one-day periods. Investment Securities Investment securities are categorized and accounted for as follows: o Held-to-maturity securities - Debt securities that the Corporation has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are reported at amortized cost. o Trading securities - Debt and equity securities bought and held principally for the purpose of being sold in the near future are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. o Available-for-sale securities - Debt and equity securities not classified as either held-to-maturity securities or trading securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of related tax effect, included as an item of other comprehensive income and reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity. The Corporation intends to hold its securities classified as available-for-sale securities for an indefinite period of time but may sell them prior to maturity. All other securities, which the Corporation has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity, are classified as held-to-maturity securities. Interest income on debt securities is adjusted using the level yield method for the amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. The adjusted cost of the specific security is used to compute gains or losses on the disposition of securities. Loans Interest income on loans is generally calculated by using the constant yield method based on the daily outstanding balance. The recognition of interest income is discontinued when, in management's opinion, the collection of all or a portion of interest becomes doubtful. Loan fees and the incremental direct costs associated with making loans are deferred and subsequently recognized over the life of the loan as an adjustment of interest income. Residential mortgage loans held for sale are valued at the lower of cost or market as determined by outstanding commitments from investors or current investor yield requirements, calculated on the aggregate loan basis. Allowance for Loan Losses The allowance for loan losses represents an amount considered adequate to absorb loan losses inherent in the portfolio. Management's evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based on a review of individual loans, historical loan loss experience, the value and adequacy of collateral, and economic conditions in the Bank's market area. For loans determined to be impaired, the allowance is based on discounted cash flows using the loan's initial effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral for certain collateral dependent loans. Losses are charged and recoveries are credited to the allowance for loan losses. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates, including the amounts and timing of future cash flows expected to be received on impaired loans that may be susceptible to significant change. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Bank's allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Bank to recognize changes to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination. Other Real Estate Other real estate, which is included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet, represents properties acquired through foreclosure or deed in lieu thereof and is carried at the lower of cost or fair value based on recent appraisals, less estimated costs to sell. Declines in the fair value of properties included in other real estate below carrying value are recognized by a charge to income. Mortgage Servicing Rights (MSRs) The rights to service mortgage loans for others are included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet. MSRs are capitalized based on the allocated cost which is determined when the underlying loans are sold. MSRs are amortized over the life of the underlying loan as an adjustment of servicing income. Impairment reviews of MSRs are performed on a quarterly basis. Premises and Equipment Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows: buildings and improvements, 10 to 50 years and furniture and equipment, 3 to 10 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the estimated life of the improvement or the term of the lease. Intangible Assets Deposit base premiums, arising from deposit and branch purchase acquisitions, amounted to $10,000 and $24,000 at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and are included in other assets. The premium amounts are amortized on an accelerated basis over ten-year periods. Income Taxes Income tax expense includes both a current provision based on the amounts computed for income tax return purposes and a deferred provision that results from application of the asset and liability method of accounting for deferred taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are established for the temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the Corporation's assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Earnings Per Share (EPS) As required for entities with complex capital structures, a dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS is included on the face of the income statement, and a reconciliation is provided in a footnote of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS computation. Comprehensive Income Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of an enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from nonowner sources and, accordingly, includes both net income and amounts referred to as other comprehensive income. The items of other comprehensive income are included in the consolidated statement of shareholders's equity and comprehensive income. The accumulated balance of other comprehensive income is included in the shareholders' equity section of the consolidated balance sheet. Employee Benefit Plans The Corporation has a defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all full- time employees. Pension costs, which are actuarially determined using the projected unit credit method, are charged to current operations. Annual funding contributions are made up to the maximum amounts allowable for Federal income tax purposes. In 2000, the Corporation adopted a noncontributory, nonqualified supplemental executive retirement plan (the "SERP") covering certain executive employees. Annual benefits payable under the SERP are based on factors similar to those for the pension plan, with offsets related to amounts payable under the pension plan and social security benefits. SERP costs, which are actuarially determined using the projected unit credit method and recorded on an unfunded basis, are charged to current operations and credited to a liability account on the consolidated balance sheet. Medical and life insurance benefits are provided by the Corporation on a postretirement basis under defined benefit plans covering substantially all full-time employees. Postretirement benefit costs, which are actuarially determined using the attribution method and recorded on an unfunded basis, are charged to current operations and credited to a liability account on the consolidated balance sheet. Stock Options The Corporation accounts for awards under employee stock-based compensation plans in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and, acordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for such awards in the consolidated financial statements. As required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", the Corporation discloses in a footnote the pro forma effect on net income and earnings per share that would result from the use of the fair value based method to measure compensation costs related to awards granted after December 15, 1994. Derivative Financial Instruments The Corporation may use off-balance sheet derivative contracts for interest rate risk management purposes. The existing contracts, all of which expired in 1999, were accounted for on the accrual basis and the net interest differential, including premiums paid, if any, were recognized as an adjustment to interest income or expense of the related asset or liability. The Corporation does not utilize derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. Restatements Share and per share information in the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto have been restated, where appropriate, to reflect the two-for-one common stock split effected in the form of a 100% stock dividend paid to shareholders on March 18, 1998. Note 2 - Merger Information On April 10, 2000, the Corporation completed a merger for the acquisition of Carolina Fincorp, Inc. ("Carolina Fincorp"), holding company for Richmond Savings Bank, Inc., SSB ("Richmond Savings"), headquartered in Rockingham, North Carolina, in a transaction accounted for as a pooling of interests. Accordingly, all historical financial information included in these consolidated financial statements has been restated to include the account balances and results of operations of Carolina Fincorp. Pursuant to the terms of the merger, each share of Carolina Fincorp common stock was converted into .79 of a share of FNB Corp. common stock, for a total issuance of 1,478,398 FNB Corp. shares. On June 26, 2000, Richmond Savings was merged into First National Bank and Trust Company. At March 31, 2000, Carolina Fincorp operated five offices through Richmond Savings and had approximately $125,943,000 in total assets, $108,848,000 in deposits and $16,332,000 in shareholders' equity. Merger-related expenses of $2,796,000 were recorded in the second quarter of 2000. Upon the change in control, the Carolina Fincorp ESOP plan terminated according to its terms and unvested restricted stock plan shares became fully vested, resulting in certain expenses considered merger-related. Other primary components of merger-related expenses were professional fees, investment banking fees, contract termination costs, data processing conversion fees and severance payments. Additionally, approximately $450,000 of the total provision for loan losses of $835,000 in the second quarter was related to aligning the credit risk methodologies of FNB Corp. and Carolina Fincorp. The primary components of merger-related expenses, including the amounts incurred through December 31, 2000 and the amounts remaining as accrued expenses at December 31, 2000, are as follows:

For purposes of preparing the 1999 consolidated balance sheet, the year-end for Carolina Fincorp was conformed from a June 30 year-end to the December 31 year-end of the Corporation. In preparing other consolidated financial statements for 1999 and prior years and for the consolidated balance sheets before December 31, 1999, the results of operations for Carolina Fincorp are included based on the June 30 year-end. The net results of operations for Carolina Fincorp for the six months ended December 31, 1999 are included as a conforming adjustment in preparing the consolidated statement of shareholders' equity and comprehensive income and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 1999. The equity adjustment to conform fiscal periods for the consolidated statement of shareholders' equity and comprehensive income consisted of the following for the operations of Carolina Fincorp for the six months ended December 31, 1999 (in thousands): Net income $ 476 Cash dividends declared (202) ESOP and restricted stock plan transactions 128 Unrealized securities losses, net of income taxes (20) ------ Equity adjustment to conform fiscal periods $ 382 ======

FHLB capital stock is pledged to secure FHLB advances. No ready market exists for this stock, and it has no quoted market value. However, redemption of this stock has historically been at par value. At December 31, 2000 and 1999, the Bank owned a total of $2,557,000 and $2,055,000, respectively, of FHLB stock. Note 4 - Loans Major classifications of loans are as follows:
December 31 2000 1999 -------- -------- (in thousands) Commercial and agricultural $160,057 $125,331 Real estate - construction 5,734 5,472 Real estate - mortgage: 1-4 family residential 165,057 170,577 Commercial and other 16,050 22,214 Consumer 25,290 30,340 Leases 13,679 6,832 -------- -------- Loans held for investment 385,867 360,766 Loans held for sale 9,870 74 -------- -------- Gross loans $395,737 $360,840 ======== ========
Loans as presented are reduced by net deferred loan fees of $405,000 and $427,000 at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Nonaccrual loans amounted to $1,478,000 at December 31, 2000 and $1,602,000 at December 31, 1999. Interest income that would have been recorded on nonaccrual loans for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 had they performed in accordance with their original terms, amounted to approximately $137,000, $153,000 and $63,000, respectively. Interest income on all such loans included in the results of operations amounted to approximately $98,000 in 2000, $90,000 in 1999 and $30,000 in 1998. At December 31, 2000, the Bank had impaired loans which totaled $321,000 and were also on nonaccrual status. The related allowance for loan losses on these loans amounted to $73,000. At December 31, 1999 the Bank had impaired loans which totaled $1,420,000 and were also on nonaccrual status. The related allowance for loan losses on these loans amounted to $289,000. The average carrying value of impaired loans was $330,000 in 2000, $1,508,000 in 1999 and $467,000 in 1998. Interest income on impaired loans amounted to approximately $17,000 in 2000, $87,000 in 1999 and was not material in 1998. Loans with outstanding balances of $1,173,000 in 2000 and $549,000 in 1999 were transferred from loans to other real estate acquired through foreclosure. Such loans transferred in 1998 were not material. Other real estate acquired through loan foreclosures amounted to $163,000 at December 31, 2000 and $423,000 at December 31, 1999 and is included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet. Loans are primarily made in the region of North Carolina that includes Chatham, Montgomery, Moore, Randolph, Richmond and Scotland counties. The real estate loan portfolio can be affected by the condition of the local real estate markets. Loans have been made by the Bank to directors and executive officers of the Corporation and to the associates of such persons, as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Such loans were made in the ordinary course of business on substantially the same terms, including rate and collateral, as those prevailing at the time in comparable transactions with other borrowers and do not involve more than normal risk of collectibility. A summary of the activity during 2000 with respect to related party loans is as follows (in thousands):
Balance, December 31, 1999 $ 9,096 New loans during 2000 16,760 Repayments during 2000 (17,836) -------- Balance, December 31, 2000 $ 8,020 ========

The components of deferred tax assets and liabilities and the tax effect of each are as follows:

There is no valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as it is management's contention that realization of the deferred tax assets is more likely than not based upon the Corporation's history of taxable income and estimates of future taxable income. The Corporation is permitted under the Internal Revenue Code to deduct an annual addition to a reserve for bad debts in determining taxable income, subject to certain limitations. This addition differs significantly from the provisions for losses for financial reporting purposes. Under generally accepted accounting principles, the Corporation is not required to provide a deferred tax liability for the tax effect of additions to the tax bad debt reserve through 1987, the base year. Retained earnings at December 31, 2000, includes approximately $1,400,000 for which no provision for federal income tax has been made. These amounts represent allocations of income to bad debt deductions for tax purposes only. Reductions of such amounts for purposes other than bad debt losses could create income for tax purposes in certain remote instances, which would then be subject to the then current corporate income tax rate.

Benefits are based on the employee's compensation, years of service and age at retirement. The Corporation's funding policy is to contribute annually to the plan an amount which is not less than the minimum amount required by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and not more than the maximum amount deductible for income tax purposes. Information concerning the status of the plan is as follows:

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan In 2000, the Corporation adopted a noncontributory, nonqualified supplemental executive retirement plan (the "SERP") covering certain executive employees. Annual benefits payable under the SERP are based on factors similar to those for the pension plan, with offsets related to amounts payable under the pension plan and social security benefits. Information concerning the status of the plan is as follows:

The medical plan is contributory, with retiree contributions adjusted whenever medical insurance rates change. The life insurance plan is noncontributory. Information concerning the plans, which are unfunded, is as follows:
2000 1999 ----- ----- (dollars in thousands) Change in Benefit Obligation: Benefit obligation at beginning of year $ 729 $ 763 Service cost 29 22 Interest cost 52 48 Net actuarial gain (13) (46) Benefits paid (46) (58) ----- ----- Benefit obligation at end of year $ 751 $ 729 ===== ===== Accrued Postretirement Benefit Cost Components: Unrecognized net actuarial gain $(687) $(652) Unrecognized prior service cost 49 59 Unrecognized transition obligation 243 263 ----- ----- Accrued postretirement benefit cost at end of year $(395) $(330) ===== ===== Weighted-Average Plan Assumptions at End of Year: Discount rate 7.5% 7.5% Annual rate of increase in the cost of medical benefits: Current year 10.0 11.0 Final constant amount 6.0 5.0 Annual decrease 1.0 1.0
Increasing or decreasing the assumed medical cost trend rate by one percentage point would not have a significant effect on either the postretirement benefit obligation at December 31, 2000 or the aggregate of the service and interest cost components of net periodic postretirement benefit cost for the year ended December 31, 2000. Net periodic postretirement benefit cost included the following components:

Matching Retirement/Savings Plan The Corporation has a matching retirement/savings plan which permits eligible employees to make contributions to the plan up to a specified percentage of compensation as defined by the plan. A portion of the employee contributions are matched by the Corporation based on the plan formula. The matching contributions amounted to $117,000 in 2000, $107,000 in 1999 and $96,000 in 1998. Carolina Fincorp maintained a 401(k) retirement plan. Upon completion of the merger with Carolina Fincorp in 2000, the plan was rolled into the Corporation's matching retirement/savings plan. The matching contributions for the Carolina Fincorp 401(k) retirement plan amounted to $24,000 in 1999 and $21,000 in 1998. ESOP and Restricted Stock Plans Carolina Fincorp had established an ESOP, or employee stock ownership plan, for the benefit of all qualified employees. Under the terms of the ESOP, shares of Carolina Fincorp common stock, for future allocation to plan participants, were purchased with proceeds from a loan by the parent company with repayments to be made by the subsidiary bank. Under a restricted stock plan for directors, officers and employees, newly issued shares of Carolina Fincorp common stock were awarded to plan participants on a deferred vesting schedule. Compensation expense related to the ESOP and restricted stock plans amonunted to $115,000 in 2000, $231,000 in 1999 and $648,000 in 1998. Upon the change in contol when the merger occurred in 2000, the ESOP plan terminated according to its terms and unvested restricted stock plan shares became fully vested, resulting in $385,000 of merger-related expenses.

Note 15 - Capital Adequacy Requirements Certain regulatory requirements restrict the lending of funds by the Bank to FNB Corp. and the amount of dividends which can be paid to FNB Corp. In 2001, the maximum amount of dividends the Bank can pay to FNB Corp., without the approval of the Comptroller of the Currency, is $3,546,000 plus an additional amount equal to the retained net income in 2001 up to the date of any dividend declaration. The Bank is required to maintain average reserve balances with the Federal Reserve Bank based on a percentage of deposits. For the reserve maintenance period in effect at December 31, 2000, the average daily reserve requirement was $5,540,000. FNB Corp. and the Bank are required to comply with capital adequacy standards established by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. In addition, the Bank is required to comply with prompt corrective action provisions established by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, there are minimum ratios of capital to risk-weighted assets. The capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. Regulatory capital amounts and ratios are set forth in the table below. The risk-based capital ratios are determined by expressing allowable capital amounts, defined in terms of Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3, as a percentage of risk-weighted assets, which are computed by measuring the relative credit risk of both the asset categories on the balance sheet and various off-balance sheet exposures. Tier 1 capital consists primarily of common shareholders' equity and qualifying perpetual preferred stock, net of goodwill and other disallowed intangible assets. Tier 2 capital, which is limited to the total of Tier 1 capital, includes allowable amounts of subordinated debt, mandatory convertible debt, preferred stock and the allowance for loan losses. Tier 3 capital, applicable only to financial institutions subject to certain market risk capital guidelines, is capital allocated to support the market risk related to a financial institution's ongoing trading activities. At December 31, 2000, FNB Corp. and the Bank were not subject to the market risk capital guidelines and, accordingly, had no Tier 3 capital allocation. Total capital, for risk-based purposes, consists of the sum of Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3 capital. The Bank is well-capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well-capitalized, the Bank must meet minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table below. There are no events or conditions since the notification that management believes have changed the Bank's category.

Note 16 - Shareholders' Equity Earnings Per Share (EPS) Basic net income per share, or basic EPS, is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if the Corporation's dilutive stock options were exercised. The numerator of the basic EPS computation is the same as the numerator of the diluted EPS computation for all periods presented. A reconciliation of the denominators of the basic and diluted EPS computations is as follows:
2000 1999 1998 --------- --------- --------- Basic EPS denominator - Weighted average number of common shares outstanding 5,035,529 5,022,403 5,043,181 Dilutive share effect arising from assumed exercise of stock options 42,408 115,962 144,948 --------- --------- --------- Diluted EPS denominator 5,077,937 5,138,365 5,188,129 ========= ========= =========
For the years 2000 and 1999, there were 323,601 and 96,364 stock options, respectively, that were antidilutive since the exercise price exceeded the average market price. These common stock equivalents were omitted from the calculations of diluted EPS for their respective years. There were no antidilutive stock options in 1998. Stock Options The Corporation adopted a stock compensation plan in 1993 that allows for the granting of incentive and nonqualified stock options to key employees and directors. Under terms of the plan, options are granted at prices equal to the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. Options become exercisable after one year in equal, cumulative installments over a five-year period. No option shall expire later than ten years from the date of grant. A maximum of 720,000 shares of common stock has been reserved for issuance under the stock compensation plan. At December 31, 2000, there were 42,850 shares available under the plan for the granting of additional options. The Corporation assumed a stock compensation plan in its merger acquistion of Carolina Fincorp in 2000. One grant of incentive and nonqualified stock options was made under the plan in 1999 to key employees and directors at a price equal to fair market value on the date of grant. No additional grants will be made under the plan. The total stock options assumed on April 10, 2000, the date of completion of the merger, amounted to 109,300 shares after adjustment for the exchange ratio in converting from Carolina Fincorp shares to FNB Corp. shares. All unvested options of Carolina Fincorp that were outstanding on April 10, 2000 became immediately vested as a result of a change-in-control provision in the plan that was triggered by the merger. Based on the stock options outstanding at December 31, 2000, a maximum of 102,348 shares of common stock has been reserved for issuance under the stock compensation plan. The Corporation applies APB Opinion No. 25 in accounting for stock compensation plans and, accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for stock option grants in the consolidated financial statements. As required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, disclosures are presented below for the effect on net income and net income per share that would result from the use of the fair value based method to measure compensation costs related to stock option grants in 1995 and subsequent years.

The weighted-average fair value per share of options granted in 2000, 1999 and 1998 amounted to $4.16, $4.21 and $11.17, respectively. Fair values were estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:
2000 1999 1998 -------- -------- -------- Risk-free interest rate 5.00% 6.23% 4.70% Dividend yield 3.50 3.20 1.80 Volatility 44.00 41.00 44.00 Expected life 6 years 6 years 6 years

Note 17 - Commitments In the normal course of business, various commitments are outstanding that are not reflected in the consolidated financial statements. At December 31, 2000, a summary of significant commitments is as follows: Commitments to extend credit $82,959,000 Standby letters of credit 782,000 In management's opinion, these commitments will be funded from normal operations with not more than the normal risk of loss. Note 18 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value for each class of financial instruments. Cash and Cash Equivalents. For cash on hand, amounts due from banks, and federal funds sold, the carrying value is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value. Investment Securities. The fair value of investment securities is based on quoted market price, if available. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities. Loans. The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. Deposits. The fair value of noninterest-bearing demand deposits and NOW, savings and money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of time deposits is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. Borrowed Funds. The carrying value of retail repurchase agreements and federal funds purchased is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value. The fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank advances is estimated using the rates currently offered for advances of similar remaining maturities. Commitments. The fair value of commitments to extend credit is considered to approximate carrying value, since the large majority of these commitments would result in loans that have variable rates and/or relatively short terms to maturity. For other commitments, generally of a short-term nature, the carrying value is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value. The various commitment items are disclosed in Note 17. The estimated fair values of financial instruments are as follows:
December 31, 2000 December 31, 1999 ---------------------- ---------------------- Estimated Estimated Carrying Fair Carrying Fair Value Value Value Value -------- -------- -------- -------- (in thousands) Financial Assets Cash and cash equivalents $ 14,202 $ 14,202 $ 21,923 $ 21,923 Investment securities: Available for sale 73,023 73,023 61,065 61,065 Held to maturity 59,361 59,727 58,721 56,953 Net loans 391,385 385,698 357,551 349,823 Financial Liabilities Deposits 472,448 474,656 427,010 428,231 Retail repurchase agreements 11,201 11,201 10,667 10,667 Federal Home Loan Bank advances 15,000 15,219 15,000 13,994 Federal funds purchased 4,750 4,750 7,735 7,735
The fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market and other information about the financial instruments. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Corporation's entire holdings of a particular financial instrument nor are potential taxes and other expenses that would be considered in an actual sale considered. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Corporation's financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and such other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in the estimates.
