(1) As adjusted to reflect the effect of two 5% stock dividends which became effective June 30, 2006 and June 29, 2007. As a result of the stock dividends, the reporting person received an aggregate of 896 additional shares which are included in the common stock shares reported as held directly. At the same time, and in accordance with antidilution provisions of the Issuer's stock option plans, the reporting person's stock options became exercisable for 2,246 additional shares, and the exercise prices were similarly adjusted.
 
Remarks:
This report is being furnished solely to show the effect of the stock dividends and does not represent a transaction by the reporting person.



The Issuer is the successor issuer under Rule 12g-3(a) to Cape Fear Bank pursuant to a statutory share exchange in which the Issuer became the Bank's parent holding company but which did not alter the proportionate interests of security holders.  The Reporting Person's Section 16 reports previously were filed with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
