Larry D. Hartwig, president and chief executive officer, said that the bank had complied with or exceeded the major requirements of the MOU, which were a reduction in classified assets and maintenance of a leverage capital ratio of at least 7 percent.

Hartwig stated: ``The bank's prudent lending and investment policies and our focused efforts to improve credit quality have enabled us to meet or exceed these goals set by the FDIC before agreed-upon scheduled dates.

``Our successful rights offering in early 1994 set the stage for our rapid recovery, and this latest action by our regulators is a very satisfying confirmation of a normalized credit quality and compliance situation.''

For the year ended Dec. 31, 1994, the company reported consolidated net income of $2,705,000, or 49 cents per average share outstanding.

Hartwig indicated that renewed balance-sheet strength has resulted in superior capital ratios and established a solid base for future growth. SC Bancorp ended 1994 with significantly stronger capital ratios than the prior year.
