NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(NOTE 6) GAAP/RAP DIFFERENCES:
These financial statements have been presented under generally accepted
accounting principals (GAAP). In some cases, the FDIC's rules and/or
regulations require a different treatment of the accounting for a specific
issue. When this occurs, certain items on the Bank's financial statements will
differ from the same items on the reports prepared under regulatory accounting
principals (RAP). The following two items are GAAP/RAP differences that are
being carried by the Bank:
- - When the guaranteed portion of an SBA loan is sold there is a provision in
the sales agreement that in the very unlikely situation that the loan pays
off or goes into default during the first three months, the SBA or Bank
agree to repurchase the loan and the seller agrees to return any premium
paid on the loan. Under GAAP the sale is reported assuming the most likely
scenario, which is that the loan will last more than three months. FDIC
rules specify that any condition of sale should be considered as likely to
happen, and therefore, the income from the sale cannot be reported under
RAP until three months after the sale. This has the effect of deferring
income under RAP. Depending upon timing circumstances, current earnings
may be increased or decreased under RAP.
- - The Bank's investment in an SBA loan is allocated among the retained
portion of the loan, excess servicing retained, and the sold portion of the
loan, based on the relative fair market values of each portion at the time
of loan origination, adjusted for payments and other activities. Excess
Servicing fees for GAAP are reflected as an asset which is amortized over
the assumed half life of the loan. FDIC examiners have determined that
excess SBA servicing rights do not constitute an asset under RAP.
Therefore, under RAP a servicing asset is not created at the time of the
sale, and any GAAP amortization must be eliminated. The Bank has not
recorded any excess servicing for GAAP purposes since 1991. As of June
30, 1996, the Bank has under GAAP taken $140,500 into income from excess
servicing fees net of amortization. The amortization of these excess
servicing fees will increase income under RAP.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATION
OVERVIEW
The following discussion reviews and analyzes the operating results and
financial condition of the Corporation, focusing on the Bank. It should be read
in conjunction with the financial statements and the other financial data
presented elsewhere herein. The Corporation has had no activities other than
its organization.
For the six months ended June 30, 1996 net income was $184,000, a decrease
of $16,000 when compared to the same period in 1995. The decrease in earnings
during this period was the result of a $40,200 decrease in net interest income
after provision for loan losses and a $24,200 increase in net noninterest
income.
Competitive pressures, declines in loan demand during the first quarter and
repayment of outstanding loans have had an adverse impact on total interest
income and net interest income in the first half of 1996.

NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income, the difference between (a) interest and fees earned on
interest-earning assets and (b) interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities,
is the most significant component of the Bank's earnings. Changes in net
interest income from period to period result from increases or decreases in the
average balances of interest-earning assets portfolio, the availability of
particular sources of funds and changes in prevailing interest rates.
Net interest income for the six month period ended June 30, 1996 was
$842,700 compared to $897,900 for the same period in 1995. The decrease of
$55,200 resulted from total interest expense increasing $123,800, while total
interest income increased $68,600. Average interest earning assets increased
$2,461,000 (8.47%), while the average rate earned decreased 31 basis points.
The decrease in the average interest rate earned was due to a increased
investment in instruments other than loans, which bear lower yields than loans.
Average interest bearing liabilities increased $2,054,000 (7.96%), while the
average rate paid increased 43 basis points, reflecting increases in certificate
of deposit rates.
The following table shows the components of the Bank's net interest income,
setting forth, for each the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1996, (i) average
assets, liabilities and investments, (ii) interest income earned on
interest-earning assets and interest expense paid on interest-bearing
liabilities, (iii) average yields earned on interest-earning assets and average
rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities, (iv) the net interest spread (i.e.,
the average yield earned on interest-earning assets less the average rate paid
on interest-bearing liabilities) and (v)the net interest yield on average
interest-earning assets (i. e., net interest income divided by average
interest-earning assets). Yields are not computed on a tax-equivalent basis.
Nonaccrual loans and overdrafts are included in average loan balances. Average
loans are presented net of unearned income.

PROVISION AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
The provision for loan losses is an expense charged against operating
income and added to the allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan
losses represents amounts which have been set aside for the specific purpose of
absorbing losses which may occur in the Bank's loan portfolio.
The allowance for loan losses reflects management's ongoing evaluation of
the risks inherent in the loan portfolio, both generally and with respect to
specific loans, the state of the economy, and the level of net loan losses
experienced in the past. Management and the Board of Directors review the
results of the State Banking Department and FDIC examinations, independent
accountants' observations, and the Bank 's internal review as additional
indicators to determine if the amount in the allowance for loan losses is
adequate to protect against estimated future losses. It is the Bank 's current
practice, which could change in accordance with the factors mentioned above, to
maintain an allowance which is at least equal to the sum of the following
percentage of loan balances by loan category.
Loan Category Reserve %
Classified Loans:
Loans classified loss 100.00%
Loans classified doubtful 50.00%

Although no assurance can be given that actual losses will not exceed the
amount provided for in the allowance, Management believes that the allowance is
adequate to provide for all estimated credit losses in light of all known
relevant factors. At June 30, 1996 and 1995 the Bank's allowance stood at 1.01
percent and 1.02 percent of gross loans, respectively. A provision of $25,000
was made to the allowance during the six months ended June 30, 1996, compared to
a provision of $40,000 in the same period in 1995. Charged off loans during
the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 totaled
13
<PAGE>
$5,400 and $57,000 respectively. Recoveries for the same periods were $11,800
and $16,500, respectively.
The Bank's non performing (delinquent 90 days or more and nonaccrual) loans
as a percentage of total loans was .32 percent at June 30, 1996 compared with
.37 percent at June 30, 1995 and .14 percent at December 31, 1995
Based upon statistics released by Federal and state banking authorities
regarding banks of similar size or otherwise located in California, Management
believes that the Bank 's ratios of delinquent and non performing loans to total
loans are far better than average. Prudent collection efforts, and tighter
lending controls, are responsible for the Bank's strong performance on these
measures of credit quality. However, no assurance can be given that the Bank's
loan portfolio will continue to measure well against its peers on these ratios
and quality measures, or that losses will not otherwise occur in the future.
NON-INTEREST INCOME
Total non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 1996 was
$519,600, compared with $490,100 for the same period in 1995. The increase of
$29,500 was the result of a $10,500 decrease in service charges on deposit
accounts, while income from SBA loan sales and servicing increased $15,600 and
income from other service charges, commissions and fees increased $24,400.
Merchant credit card processing accounted for $12,000 of the increase in other
service charges, commissions and fees.
The sale of Small Business Administration (SBA) guaranteed loans is a
significant contributor to the Bank's income. SBA guaranteed loans yield up to
3 3/4% over the New York prime rate, and the guaranteed portions can be sold at
premiums which vary with market conditions. SBA loans are guaranteed by the
full faith of the United States Government from 75 to 80 percent of the
principal amount. The guaranteed portion has risks comparable for an investor
to a U. S. Government security and can usually be sold in the secondary
financial market, either at a premium or at a yield which allows the Bank to
maintain a significant spread for itself.
There can be no assurance that the gains on sale will continue at, or
above, the levels realized in the past three years. In addition, increasing
competition among lenders for qualified SBA borrowers makes it difficult for the
Bank to continually expand its program in this area, and may limit the level of
premium that can be earned with regard thereto. Furthermore, the SBA recently
began requiring lenders to share a portion of premiums in excess of 10% earned
on the sale of the guaranteed portions, and to pay 50 basis points on the
outstanding quaranteed balance. Management cannot predict the impact these
changes will not have a significant impact on SBA income.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE
Salary and benefits expense for the six months ended June 30, 1996
increased $42,000 compared with the same period in 1995. These increases were
primarily due to employee merit pay increases and an addition to staff resulting
from the opening of a Loan Production Office.
Total occupancy and equipment expense for the six months ended June 30,
1996 was $130,700 compared to $120,700 for the same period in 1995. The
increase of $10,000 was due to the loss of the benefit ($5,400) of the
sub-lease of a portion of 665 Munras Avenue facility and an increase of $5,100
in utilities expense.
For the six months ended June 30, 1996 professional fees were $20,700 less
than the same period in 1995.
Other expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1996 totaled $331,400
compared with $361,100 for the same period in 1995. Significant changes
occurred in the following categories with decreases in FDIC and State
Assessments ($33,000), director fees ($3,800), miscellaneous expense ($20,100),
insurance expense ($9,200), SBA loan expense ($14,600), postage ($3,800), loan
expense($4,400) and stockholder expense ($4,400); increases in business
development ($15,300), collection expense ($19,000), advertising ($4,800),
stationary and supplies ($12,600) and income taxes ($22,100).
LOANS
Loans represented 74.87% of average earning assets, and 64.12% of average
total assets for the six months ended June 30, 1996, compared with 82.93% and
70.71%, respectively during 1995. For the six months ended June 30, 1996
average loans decreased 2.07% from $24,105,000 for the same period in 1995 to
$23,606,000. Average real estate loans decreased $1,418,000 (10.5%),
installment loans decreased $305,000 (29.61%); while average commercial loans
increased $1,224,000 (12.80).
The Bank's commercial and industrial loans are generally made for the
purpose of providing working capital, financing the purchase of equipment or
inventory, and other business purposes. Such loans generally have maturities
ranging from one year to several years. Short-term business loans are generally
intended to finance current transactions and typically provide for monthly
interest payments with principal being payable at maturity or at 90-day
intervals. Term loans (usually for a term of two to five years) normally provide
for monthly installments of principal and interest. The Bank from time to time
utilizes accounts receivable and inventory as security for loans.

The Bank is the recognized leader for Small Business Administration lending
in Monterey County, and holds SBA's coveted Preferred Lender Status. Generally,
SBA loans are guaranteed by the SBA for 75 to 80 percent of their principal
amount, which can be retained in portfolio or sold to investors. Such loans are
made at floating interest rates, but generally for longer terms (up to 25 years)
than are available on a conventional basis to small businesses. The
unguaranteed portion of the loans, although generally supported by collateral,
is considered to be more risky than conventional commercial loans because they
may be based upon credit standards the Bank would not otherwise apply, such as
lower cash flow coverage, or longer repayment terms.
The Bank's real estate loan portfolio consists both of real estate
construction loans and real estate mortgage loans. The Bank has initiated a
program to generate more commercial and industrial real estate loans, which
generally yield higher returns than normal commercial loans. The Bank has also
developed a broker program for generating residential real estate loans. The
Bank does not make real estate development loans. Real estate construction
loans are made for a much shorter term, and often at higher interest rates, than
conventional single family residential real estate loans. The cost of
administering such loans is often higher than for other real estate loans, as
principal is drawn on periodically as construction progresses.
The Bank also makes real estate loans secured by a first deed of trust on
single family residential properties and commercial and industrial real estate.
California commercial banks are permitted, depending on the type and maturity of
the loan, to lend up to 90 percent of the fair market value of real property (or
more if the loan is insured either by private mortgage insurers or governmental
agencies). In certain instances, the appraised value may exceed the actual
amount which could be realized on foreclosure, or declines in market value
subsequent to making the loan can impair the Bank's security.
Consumer loans are made for the purpose of financing the purchase of
various types of consumer goods, home improvement loans, auto loans and other
personal loans. Consumer installment loans generally provide for monthly
payments of principal and interest, at a fixed rate. Most of the Bank's
consumer installment loans are generally secured by the personal property being
purchased. The Bank generally makes consumer loans to those customers with a
prior banking relationship with the Bank.
NONPERFORMING AND NONACCRUAL LOANS
The Bank's present policy is to cease accruing interest on loans which are
past due as to principal or interest 90 days or more, except for loans which are
well secured or when collection of interest and principal is deemed likely.
When a loan is placed on nonaccrual, previously accrued and unpaid interest is
generally reversed out of income unless adequate collateral from which to
collect the principal of, and interest on, the loan appears to be available.

The following table presents information with respect to loans which, as of
the dates indicated, were past due 90 days or more or were placed on nonaccrual
status (referred to collectively as "nonperforming loans"):

Nonperforming loans have decreased significantly in recent years. These
decreases are the result of a strengthening of underwriting criteria, frequent
review of new and delinquent loans and a firm collection policy (with the
assistance of outside legal counsel). The Bank does not have any foreign loans
or loans for highly leveraged transactions.

FUNDING SOURCES
Average deposits for the six months ended June 30, 1996 were $31,474,000 an
increase of 9.52% compared with the average balance for 1995. Average
certificates of deposit represented 54.37% of average deposits for the six
months ended June 30, 1996. Average interest checking, money market and savings
accounts as a group were 27.74% of average deposits. Average demand deposits
represented 17.89% of average deposits. The trend of deposits shifting to
certificates of deposit has continued, resulting in a increased cost of funds.
The Bank has a line of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank of San
Francisco. Two advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank with initial maturities
of more than one year totaled $2,000,000 at June 30, 1996. Each advance is for
$1,000,000 with interest rates of 4.29% and 4.88% and maturities of October 1996
and October 1998. Management believes that these advances provide funds of
medium duration at a lower cost than comparable deposits. The Bank did not
utilize any short term borrowings in 1996, 1995 or 1994.
CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Bank maintains capital to comply with legal requirements, to provide a
margin of safety for its depositors and stockholders, and to provide for future
growth and the ability to pay dividends. At June 30, 1996, stockholders' equity
was $2,965,200 versus $2,775,800 at December 31, 1995. The Bank paid cash
dividends of $0.10 per share in both 1995 and 1994; no dividend was paid in
1993.
The FDIC and Federal Reserve Board have adopted capital adequacy guidelines
for use in their examination and regulation of banks and bank holding companies.
If the capital of a bank or bank holding company falls below the minimum levels
established by these guidelines, it may be denied approval to acquire or
establish additional banks or non-bank businesses, or the FDIC or Federal
Reserve Board may take other administrative actions. The guidelines employ two
measures of capital: (1) risk-based capital and (2) leverage capital.
Under current rules, all banks were required to maintain Tier 1 capital of
at least 4 percent and total capital of 8.0% of risk-adjusted assets. The Bank
had a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 10.13% and a total risk-based capital
ratio of 11.13% at June 30, 1996 (calculated under regulatory accounting
principles), well above the minimum regulatory requirements.
The leverage capital ratio guidelines require a minimum leverage capital
ratio of 3% of Tier 1 capital to total assets less goodwill. The Bank had a
leverage capital ratio of 6.98% at June 30, 1996 (calculated under regulatory
accounting principles).

LIQUIDITY
Liquidity represents a bank's ability to provide sufficient cash flows or
cash resources in a manner that enables it to meet obligations in a timely
fashion and adequately provides for anticipated future cash needs. For the
Bank, liquidity considerations involve the capacity to meet expected and
potential requirements of depositors seeking access to balances and to provide
for the credit demands of borrowing customers. In the ordinary course of the
Bank's business, funds are generated from the repayment of loans, maturities
within the investment securities portfolio and the acquisition of deposit
balances and short-term borrowings. In addition, the Bank has a line of credit
from the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco of approximately $3,900,000 to
meet temporary liquidity requirements.
As a matter of policy, the Bank seeks to maintain a level of liquid assets,
including marketable investment securities, equal to a least 15 percent of total
assets ("primary liquidity"), while maintaining sources of secondary liquidity
(borrowing lines from other institutions) equal to at least an additional 10
percent of assets. In addition, it seeks to generally limit loans to not more
than 90 percent of deposits. Within these ratios, the Bank generally has excess
funds available to sell as federal funds on a daily basis, and is able to fund
its own liquidity needs without the need of short-term borrowing. The Bank's
primary liquidity at June 30, 1996 was 26.11 percent, while its average loan to
deposit ratio for the six months ended June 30, 1996 was 75.00 percent. The
high level of liquidity has an adverse impact on interest income.
The following table sets forth the interest rate sensitivity distribution
of the Bank's interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities as of
June 30, 1996, the Bank's interest rate sensitivity gap ratio (i.e., the
difference between interest rate sensitive assets and interest rate sensitive
liabilities divided by total assets) and the Bank's cumulative interest rate
sensitivity gap ratio. For purposes of the table, except for savings deposits
and money market, an asset or liability is considered rate sensitive within a
specified period when it matures or could be repriced within such period in
accordance with its contractual terms. More than all of the Bank's interest
rate sensitivity gap is offset by non-interest bearing sources of funds (demand
deposits and capital). Generally, a bank with a positive rate sensitivity gap
ratio can anticipate that increases in market rates of interest will have a
favorable impact on net interest income, while decreases will have unfavorable
impact. Banks with a negative interest rate sensitivity gap will experience
the reverse. The Bank's one year cummulative interest sensitivity gap of 9.06
percent is slightly below the generally accepted guideline of 10 to 15 percent.

Except as noted, the table above indicates the time periods in which
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities will theoretically
mature or are otherwise subject to repricing in accordance with their
contractual terms. However, this table does not necessarily indicate the impact
of general interest rate movements on the Bank's net interest yield because the
repricing of various categories or assets and liabilities is discretionary and
is subject to competitive and other pressures. As a result, various assets and
liabilities indicated as repricing within the same period may, in fact, reprice
at different times and at different interest rate levels.
