BB&T to acquire FloridaFirst Bancorp of Lakeland, Fla.
WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. - Building on its new presence in Florida, BB&T Corporation (NYSE: BBT) today said it plans to buy Lakeland-based FloridaFirst Bancorp Inc. (NASDAQ: FFBK) in a $134.8 million transaction.
FloridaFirst Bancorp is the parent company of FloridaFirst Bank, an $812 million thrift with 18 full-service offices in Polk, Manatee, Highlands and Sumter counties in central Florida and along the west central coast.
FloridaFirst
shareholders may elect one of the following three options for the exchange of their
shares:
1.) .66 of a
share of BB&T stock; or
2.) .363
of a share of BB&T stock plus $11.25 in cash; or
3.) $25
in cash. This option is subject to a maximum aggregate cash amount in the overall
transaction equal to $11.25 per share multiplied by the shares outstanding as of the
closing date. If this maximum cash amount would be exceeded, some portion of the cash
would be converted to stock, which could result in a per share value of less than $25.
The transaction, approved by the directors of both companies, is valued at $23.85 per FloridaFirst share based upon the cash/stock election (option No. 2 above) and BB&T’s closing price Wednesday of $34.70.

“We’re committed to building a strong presence in Florida, one of the nation’s fastest growing and most economically attractive states,” said BB&T Chairman and Chief Executive Officer John Allison. “This acquisition pushes us closer to that goal by providing entry into the robust Bradenton, Winter Haven and Lakeland markets.
“FloridaFirst Bank is a community financial institution that focuses on excellent credit quality and client service, and has a very visible presence in the markets it serves.”
Florida was one of the three fastest growing states in the nation from 1990 to 2000. More jobs were created in Florida in 2001 than any other state in the nation. In 2000, the state ranked first in the Southeast and fourth in the nation in total personal income.
The announcement comes nearly three weeks after BB&T completed its acquisition of Tallahassee, Fla.-based Regional Financial Corporation, parent company of real estate lender First South Bank. The First South acquisition, BB&T’s first in Florida, established a foothold in Tallahassee and the Florida Panhandle, Jacksonville, and along the Gulf Coast from Beverly Hills to Naples.
The FloridaFirst acquisition would expand that presence into central Florida’s “High Tech Corridor” along Interstate 4 in Polk County. FloridaFirst operates offices in Avon Park, Bradenton, Lakeland, Sebring, Wildwood and Winter Haven. It holds the No. 4 deposit market share in its four-county area.
FloridaFirst customers in those markets will be introduced to BB&T’s strong branch-based sales culture and its broad product and services line, including insurance, mutual funds, trust, online banking, annuities, investment banking, retail brokerage, treasury services, leasing and international banking.
“For some time now, we’ve had a clear-cut goal of becoming the leading community bank in central Florida,” said Gregory C. Wilkes, president and chief executive officer of FloridaFirst Bancorp. “One of the great things about this merger is that BB&T’s unique community banking structure will give us the autonomy to continue toward that goal by serving our clients in the same attentive manner they’ve grown accustomed to.
“The fact that BB&T is known throughout the industry for its highly client-focused approach to doing business makes this an even better fit.”
FloridaFirst branches will become part of BB&T’s Florida banking operations. BB&T divides its 11-state banking network into autonomous regions which operate like community banks. Nearly all decisions are made locally, close to the customer.
BB&T also will create an area advisory board for central Florida. FloridaFirst board members will be asked to serve on the new BB&T board.

The merger, which is subject to regulatory and FloridaFirst shareholder approval, is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2003.
BB&T on Sept. 27 said it would acquire Equitable Bank of Wheaton, Md., in a $52.6 million stock swap. On Tuesday, it announced plans to buy a Tallahassee-based insurance agency.
Winston-Salem-based BB&T Corporation operates more than 1,100 banking offices in the Carolinas, Georgia, Virginia, Maryland, West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Florida, Alabama, Indiana and Washington, D.C.
With $76.3 billion in assets as of June 30, BB&T Corp. is the nation’s 14th largest financial holding company. Barron’s, a Dow Jones weekly, ranks BB&T as the second highest performing financial institution in the country. More information is available at www.BBandT.com.

Analyst Presentation

Forward-Looking Information
BB&T has made forward-looking statements in the accompanying analyst presentation materials that are subject to risks and uncertainties. These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of the management of BB&T, and on the information available to management at the time the analyst presentation materials were prepared. In particular, the analyst materials in this report include statements regarding estimated earnings per share of BB&T on a stand alone basis, expected cost savings from the merger, estimated merger or restructuring charges, estimated increases in FloridaFirst’s fee income ratio and net interest margin, the anticipated accretive effect of the merger, and BB&T’s anticipated performance in future periods. With respect to estimated cost savings and merger or restructuring charges, BB&T has made assumptions about, among other things, the extent of operational overlap between BB&T and FloridaFirst, the amount of general and administrative expense consolidation, costs relating to converting FloridaFirst’s bank operations and data processing to BB&T’s systems, the size of anticipated reductions in fixed labor costs, the amount of severance expenses, the extent of the charges that may be necessary to align the companies’ respective accounting policies, and the cost related to the merger. The realization of cost savings and the amount of merger or restructuring charges are subject to the risk that the foregoing assumptions are inaccurate.
Any statements in the accompanying exhibit regarding the anticipated accretive effect of the merger and BB&T’s anticipated performance in future periods are subject to risks relating to, among other things, the following possibilities: (1) expected cost savings from this merger or other previously announced mergers may not be fully realized or realized within the expected time frame; (2) deposit attrition, customer loss or revenue loss following proposed mergers may be greater than expected; (3) competitive pressure among depository and other financial institutions may increase significantly; (4) costs or difficulties related to the integration of the businesses of BB&T and its merger partners, including FloridaFirst, may be greater than expected; (5) changes in the interest rate environment; (6) general economic or business conditions, either nationally or regionally, may be less favorable than expected, resulting in, among other things, a deterioration in credit quality, or a reduced demand for credit; (7) legislative or regulatory changes, including changes in accounting standards, may adversely affect the businesses in which BB&T and FloridaFirst are engaged; (8) adverse changes may occur in the securities markets; and (9) competitors of BB&T and FloridaFirst may have greater financial resources and develop products that enable such competitors to compete more successfully than BB&T and FloridaFirst.
BB&T believes these forward-looking statements are reasonable; however, undue reliance should not be placed on such forward-looking statements, which are based on current expectations. Such statements are not guarantees of performance. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. The future results and shareholder value of BB&T following completion of the merger may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements. Many of the factors that will determine these results and values are beyond management’s ability to control or predict.

Leverage Capital Ratio – Common shareholders’ equity excluding unrealized securities gains and losses and certain intangible assets as a percentage of average assets for the most recent quarter less certain intangible assets.
Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio – The sum of shareholders’ equity, a qualifying portion of subordinated debt and a qualifying portion of the allowance for loan and lease losses as a percentage of risk-weighted assets.
