West Georgia National Bank Announces Plans for New Location in Douglasville.

CARROLLTON, Ga. -- West Georgia National Bank (WGNB), a subsidiary of WGNB Corp., the thirty-ninth highest performing publicly traded community bank under $1 billion in assets in the nation according to US Banker, today announced the plans for a new full-service office located at 9360 The Landing Drive, Douglasville, Georgia - bordering Chapel Hill Road. "This expansion of our footprint towards Atlanta will enhance our ability to attract more retail business," said H. B. "Rocky" Lipham, III, President of West Georgia National Bank.

The new location, scheduled to open in April 2006, will provide a "high-tech," "high-touch" atmosphere. As they enter the facility, customers will immediately be greeted by one of the Customer Service Representatives (CSRs) at the "concierge" station. CSRs will assist customers with various types of transactions, or they may direct them to the appropriate bank personnel. Commercial, construction and consumer loan officers will be available for specialized lending.

For added convenience, privacy and security, the safe deposit box area will feature a biometric-access safe deposit vault. Each safe deposit box holder's palm print will be recorded electronically. Customers will enter their Personal Identification Number and place their palm on the reader for verification. The customer then needs only his or her key to open the box.

Additionally, the lobby area will encompass an array of services including an interactive online banking station, an information center with a variety of collateral materials, as well as a self-serve coffee bar.

"We are honored to be growing with Douglas County," said Julian Carter, Douglasville City Executive. "Our commitment to providing customers with the best banking experience will be evident throughout this entire office."
