2 IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR SHAREHOLDERS AND INVESTORS Caution Regarding Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 regarding First Bancorp's and GrandSouth Bancorporation's expectations or predictions of future financial or business performance or conditions. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "target," "estimate," "continue," "positions," "prospects" or "potential," by future conditional verbs such as "will," "would," "should," "could" or "may", or by variations of such words or by similar expressions. Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about the benefits of the combination of First Bancorp (Nasdaq: FBNC) and GrandSouth Bancorporation (OTCQX: GRRB), including future financial and operating results, expected cost savings, expected impact on future earnings, the combined company's plans, objectives, expectations and intentions and other statements that are not historical facts. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties which change over time. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. We assume no duty to update forward-looking statements. In addition to factors previously disclosed in First Bancorp’s and GrandSouth Bancorporation's reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements: ability to obtain regulatory approvals and meet other closing conditions to the merger, including approval by GrandSouth Bancorporation’s shareholders, on the expected terms and schedule; delay in closing the merger; difficulties and delays in integrating the First Bancorp and GrandSouth Bancorporation businesses or fully realizing cost savings and other benefits; business disruption following the proposed transaction; changes in asset quality and credit risk; the inability to sustain revenue and earnings growth; changes in interest rates and capital markets; inflation; customer borrowing, repayment, investment and deposit practices; the introduction, withdrawal, success and timing of business initiatives; competitive conditions; the inability to realize cost savings or revenues or to implement integration plans and other consequences associated with mergers, acquisitions and divestitures; economic conditions; the reaction to the transaction of the companies' customers, employees and counterparties; and the impact, extent and timing of technological changes, capital management activities, and other actions of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve and legislative and regulatory actions and reforms. Non-GAAP Measures Statements included in this presentation include non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) measures and should be read along with First Bancorp’s News Release of April 27, 2022 reporting its operating results as of and for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, and GrandSouth Bancorporation’s News Release of April 18, 2022, both of which provide a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to GAAP measures. Management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide additional useful information that allows readers to evaluate the ongoing performance of each company. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered as an alternative to any measure of performance or financial condition as promulgated under GAAP, and investors should consider each company’s performance and financial condition as reported under GAAP and all other relevant information when assessing the performance or financial condition of each company. Non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools, and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of each company’s results or financial condition as reported under GAAP.
