Capital City Bank Group, Inc. Announces Increase to
Share Repurchase Program and Majority Voting in Director Elections


TALLAHASSEE, Fla., November 29, 2007 -- Capital City Bank Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: CCBG) announced today that its Board of Directors has authorized an increase to its share repurchase program and an amendment to the Company’s Bylaws to implement a majority voting standard for the election of directors.

Increase to Share Repurchase Program
The Board of Directors of the Company has authorized the repurchase of an additional 500,000 shares of common stock under its previously authorized share repurchase program. This increase, together with previously available amounts, provides a total authorization of 2,671,875 shares to be repurchased. Since 2000, the Company has repurchased approximately 2,106,586 shares under this program.

The shares may be purchased under the program from time to time in open market transactions or in solicited or unsolicited privately negotiated transactions at the Company’s discretion, subject to factors such as stock price, general economic and market conditions and the Company's available cash.

William G. Smith, Jr., Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated "This additional increase to the repurchase authorization will enable us to continue to manage our capital and to respond to changing market and business conditions, as appropriate.”

The share repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of shares, and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time at the Company’s discretion. Any shares of stock repurchased under the program will be cancelled.

Majority Voting for Directors
The Board of Directors has approved an amendment to the Company’s Bylaws to implement a majority voting standard for electing directors and a resignation requirement for director nominees who fail to receive the required majority vote.

The new standard, which became effective on November 29, 2007 and will apply to the 2008 Annual Meeting of Shareowners, provides that a director nominee will be elected only if the number of votes cast "for" exceeds the number of votes "against" his or her election. Previously, directors were elected under a plurality voting standard that elected nominees receiving the most votes regardless of whether those votes constituted a majority of the shares voted at the meeting. In accordance with best practices, the plurality voting standard will be retained only in the case of contested elections.

To support the Company's majority voting standard, the amended Bylaws require a director nominee who fails to receive a majority vote when standing for election to tender his or her resignation to the Board. The Board will determine within 90 days whether to accept the resignation and will publicly disclose its decision.

William G. Smith, Jr. stated “The new majority voting policy is the latest in a series of enhancements adopted by the Board to improve Capital City’s governance standards.”

The Bylaw amendment is included in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed today with the SEC.
