expense for the comparative periods based on either changes in average
volume or changes in average rates for interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities. Changes which are not solely due to rate
changes or solely due to volume changes are attributed to volume.
(b) The taxable equivalent adjustment results from tax exempt
income less non-deductible TEFRA interest expense and was $186 in 2005
and $240 in 2004.
(c) Average nonaccruing loans have been excluded from total
average loans and categorized as a non interest-earning asset.

(a) This table shows the changes in interest income and interest
expense for the comparative periods based on either changes in average
volume or changes in average rates for interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities. Changes which are not solely due to rate
changes or solely due to volume changes are attributed to volume.
(b) The taxable equivalent adjustment results from tax exempt
income less non-deductible TEFRA interest expense and was $45 and $60
in the fourth quarter 2005 and 2004, respectively.
(c) Average nonaccruing loans have been excluded from total
average loans and categorized as a non interest-earning asset.


              The Savannah Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries
                       Regulatory Capital Ratios

The primary banking regulators of The Savannah Bancorp, Inc. and
Subsidiary Banks have adopted capital requirements that specify the
minimum level for which no prompt corrective action is required. In
addition, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) has adopted
FDIC insurance assessment rates based on certain "well-capitalized"
risk-based and equity capital ratios. Failure to meet minimum capital
requirements can result in the initiation of certain actions by the
regulators that, if undertaken, could have a material effect on the
Company's and the Subsidiary Banks' financial statements. The
following tables show the capital ratios for the Company and the
Subsidiary Banks at December 31, 2005 and 2004:
