     Dividends

          The holders of TSFG’s common stock are entitled to receive dividends when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available. As a legal entity separate and distinct from its subsidiaries, TSFG depends on the payment of dividends from its subsidiaries for its revenues. Current federal law prohibits, except under certain circumstances and with prior regulatory approval, an insured depository institution from paying dividends or making any other capital distribution if, after making the payment or distribution, the institution would be considered “undercapitalized,” as that term is defined in applicable regulations. South Carolina banking regulations restrict the amount of dividends that the subsidiary bank can pay to TSFG, and may require prior approval before declaration and payment of any excess dividend. At December 31, 2008, Carolina First Bank could not pay dividends without the approval of such agencies. During 2008, TSFG issued preferred stock, the terms of which include a restriction on declaring or paying common dividends unless all preferred dividends are paid. In addition, the Federal Reserve has the authority to prohibit TSFG from paying a dividend on its common and/or preferred stock.
