Forward Looking Statements

This

presentation

includes

“forward-looking

statements”

within

the

meaning

of

the

federal

securities

laws.

Words

such

as

“believes,”

“estimates,”

“plans,”

“expects,”

“should,”

“may,”

“might,”

“outlook,”

and

“anticipates,”

and

similar

expressions,

as

they

relate

to

BancGroup

(including

its

subsidiaries

or

its

management),

are

intended

to

identify

forward-looking

statements.

The

forward-looking

statements

in

these

reports

are

subject

to

risks

and

uncertainties

that

could

cause

actual

results

to

differ

materially

from

those

expressed

in

or

implied

by

the

statements.

In

addition

to

factors

mentioned

elsewhere

in

this

report

or

previously

disclosed

in

BancGroup’s

SEC

reports

(accessible

on

the

SEC’s

website

at

www.sec.gov

or

on

BancGroup’s

website

at

www.colonialbank.com),

the

following

factors,

among

others, could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements and future results could differ materially from

historical performance. These factors are not exclusive:

•

deposit attrition, customer loss, or revenue loss in the ordinary course of business;

•

increases in competitive pressure in the banking industry;

•

costs or difficulties related to the integration of the businesses of BancGroup and institutions it acquires are greater than

expected;

•

the inability of BancGroup to realize elements of its strategic plans for 2006 and beyond;

•

changes in the interest rate environment which expand or reduce margins or adversely affect critical estimates as applied and

projected returns on investments;

•

economic conditions affecting real estate values and transactions in BancGroup’s market and/or general economic conditions,

either nationally or regionally, that are less favorable then expected;

•

natural disasters in BancGroup’s primary market areas which result in prolonged business disruption or materially impair the

value of collateral securing loans;

•

management’s assumptions and estimates underlying critical accounting policies prove to be inadequate or materially

incorrect or are not borne out by subsequent events;

•

strategies to manage interest rate risk may yield results other than those anticipated;

•

changes which may occur in the regulatory environment;

•

a significant rate of inflation (deflation);

•

acts of terrorism or war; and

•

changes in the securities markets.

Many

of

these

factors

are

beyond

BancGroup’s

control.

The

reader

is

cautioned

not

to

place

undue

reliance

on

any

forward

looking

statements

made

by

or

on

behalf

of

BancGroup.

Any

such

statement

speaks

only

as

of

the

date

the

statement

was

made

or

as

of

such

date

that

may

be

referenced

within

the

statement.

BancGroup

does

not

undertake

any

obligation

to

update

or

revise

any

forward-looking

statements.

Performance of 1,000 Major U.S. Companies Compared With Their Peers in 76 Industry Groups - Banks

This table shows the performance of the 1,000 Shareholder Scoreboard companies relative to others in their own industries. The returns are compound annual total returns -- including price changes and reinvestments from any dividends or

other cash or noncash distributions -- for periods through year-end 2005. Also shown is the number of percentage points by which each company's performance beat or trailed the industry average. Within each industry, most companies are

ranked on five-year returns; companies that haven't been publicly traded for at least five years are ranked on three-year or one-year returns, depending on how long they have been traded. Although the published returns are rounded to the

nearest 10th of a percentage point, rankings are based on numbers carried out to at least seven decimal places. Rankings are by L.E.K. Consulting LLC, based on data from Dow Jones & Co., Hemscott, Inc. a division of Hemscott PLC, and

SunGard Market Data Services.
