NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- September 30, 1996

NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

      The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
of California Community Bancshares Corporation (the Company) include the
accounts of the Company and its subsidiary Bank, Continental Pacific Bank. 
Significant intercompany items and transactions have been eliminated. Such 
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles and pursuant to the rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and, in Management's opinion, 
include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) 
necessary for a fair presentation of results for such interim periods.  
Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principals have been omitted pursuant to SEC rules or regulations; however,
the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the
information presented not misleading.   For further information, refer to the
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's
annual report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1995. 
Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31,
1996.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

      As California Community Bancshares Corporation (the "Company") has not
commenced any business operations independent of Continental Pacific Bank (the
"Bank"), the following discussion pertains primarily to the Bank.  Average
balances, including such balances used in calculating certain financial
ratios, are generally comprised of average daily balances for the Company.

OVERVIEW
   
      The company earned $389,000 in the third quarter of 1996 and $1,136,000
for the nine months ended September 30, 1996.  The current quarter's income
was 9.0% higher than the $357,000 reported in the same quarter last year
while the 1996 year to date income is 14.2% higher than the $995,000 reported
in the first nine months of 1995.  Fully diluted earnings per share for the
current quarter increased to $.33 from $.31 in the third quarter of 1995. Fully
diluted earnings per share for the first nine months of 1996 was $.96 versus
$.87 for the same period last year.

      In the first nine months of 1996, net income before taxes increased
$433,000 or 30.6% over the amount generated in the first nine months of 1995. 
Net interest income and other operating income improved by 12.1% and 10.8%,
respectively over the same period last year while other operating expenses
increased 5.1%.  Net interest income increased by $612,000 as average rates
received on interest earning assets increased while average rates paid on
interest bearing liabilities decreased.  Increased average balances in
interest earning assets added significantly to interest income while the
change in mix of average balances of interest-bearing deposits more than
offset increased average balances of borrowed funds reducing interest
expenses.  Net interest margin was 5.21% for the first nine months of 1996
compared to 4.79% in the same period the previous year.  Other operating
income increased by $101,000 or 10.8% over the figure reported in the same
period last year.  Other fees and charges, primarily fees from the sale of
Small Business Administration (SBA) loans and fees from the sale of Mortgage
loans, accounted for a substantial portion of this increase. Other operating
expense increased by $225,000 attributed mainly to a $161,000 increase in
salaries and employee benefits.

      Net income before taxes increased $108,000 or 20.2% in the third quarter
of 1996 over the amount reported in the third quarter of 1995.  Net interest
income improved by 10.9% over the same quarter's performance last year while
other operating income declined by 15.7% and other operating expenses
increased 2.9%.  Net interest income increased by $188,000 as average rates
received on interest earning assets declined by 5 basis points while average
rates paid on interest bearing liabilities declined by 32 basis points. 
Increased average balances in interest earning assets added significantly to
interest income while increased average balances of other borrowings slightly
increased interest expenses.  Net interest margin was 5.06% in the third
quarter of 1996 compared to 4.76% in the same period the previous year.  Other
operating income decreased by $59,000 or 15.7% from the figure reported in the
same quarter last year.  Other fees and charges, primarily reduced fees from
the sale of Mortgage loans, accounted for a substantial portion of this
change. Other operating expense increased by $43,000 attributed to a $45,000 
increase in legal fees associated with the purchase of a Branch of Tracy 
Federal Savings Bank.  This transaction will be discussed further under
Subsequent Events.

      Assets of the Company totalled $170.8 million at September 30, 1996, a
$10.7 million increase over the 1995 end of year figure.  A $7.3 million
increase in deposits and a $2.7 million increase in borrowed funds funded a
$1.5 million increase in Federal Funds Sold, a $5.6 million increase in
investments and a $3.0 million increase in loans.

      Return on Average Assets (ROA) was .93% and Return on Average Equity
(ROE) was 12.03% in the first nine months of 1996.  For the same period in
1995, these ratios were .84% and 11.84%, respectively.

      Return on Average Assets (ROA) was .93% and Return on Average Equity
(ROE) was 12.22% in the third quarter of 1996.  For the same period in 1995,
these ratios were .89% and 12.36%, respectively.  At September 30, 1996, the
Company had a leverage capital ratio of 7.92%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital
ratio of 10.18% and a total risk-based capital ratio of 13.99%.  These compare
to 7.75%, 9.65% and 13.71%, respectively at December 31, 1995.

      On May 14, 1996, the Bank entered into a Purchase and Assumption
Agreement (the "Agreement") with Tracy Federal Bank, F.S.B., a Federal Savings
Bank ("Tracy").  The Agreement provides for the Bank to acquire the Concord,
California branch office of Tracy.  This acquisition, which was consummated on
October 12, 1996 is consistent with the Company's strategic plan to expand the
Bank's deposit and lending activities into contiguous markets.  If the
transaction were consummated as of September 30, 1996, the Bank's deposits and
assets would increase by approximately ten percent (10%) and nine percent
(9%), respectively, from September 30, 1996 levels.  Pursuant to the
Agreement, only saving secured loans were purchased by the Bank, and a
4% premium ($610,000) was paid on October 12, 1996 for the branch's adjusted
deposits.  Applications seeking approval of the transaction were filed with 
the FDIC, the OTS and the California Superintendent of Banks.  The transaction 
was approved by these regulatory bodies on August 14, 1996, July 23, 1996 and 
August 28, 1996, respectively.

      The following tables provide a summary of the major elements of income
and expense for the third quarter of 1996 compared with the third quarter of
1995 as well as 1996 year to date income components compared to 1995 year to
date figures.

NET INTEREST INCOME / NET INTEREST MARGIN

      Net interest income represents the excess of interest and fees earned on
interest-earning assets over interest paid on deposits and borrowed funds. 
Net interest margin is net interest income expressed as a percentage of
average interest earning assets.  Net interest income comprises the major
portions of the Company's revenue.

      In the nine months ended September 30, 1996, interest income increased
$399,000 or 4.3% over the same period last year.  Higher rates earned on the
loan portfolio combined with increased average loan balances and increased
average total securities balances were the major factors contributing to this
increase.  Rates earned on loans averaged 9.70% in the first nine months of
1996, 23 basis points or 2.4% higher than the average of 9.47% in the first
nine months of 1995.  Loan balances (Net of Reserve for Loan Losses and
Deferred Fees) averaged $110.8 million in the nine months ended September 30,
1996, $1.3 million higher than average net loan balances of $109.5 in the
first nine months of 1995.  Year to date, 1996, total securities (taxable
securities, nontaxable securities and federal funds sold) averaged $35.0
million compared to $32.3 million in the year ago period.  Higher loan rates
and loan volume in the current period contributed $290,000 of the above
increase while the remaining $109,000 was derived from higher security
interest income.

      In the first nine months of 1996, interest expense declined by $213,000
or 5.2% from the same period last year.  Interest paid on time deposits
declined by $34,000 or 1.8% as average time deposit balances increased by $1.0
million offset by a decline in average interest rates paid from 5.36% to
5.14%. Average money management balances on the other hand declined in the 
first nine months of 1996 when compared to the same period last year by $1.8 
million while the rate paid fell by 57 basis points to 4.47%.  This reduction
in average balances and average rate paid on money management accounts
accounted for a $226,000 reduction in interest expense.  Increased average
balances of other borrowings offset somewhat by reduced average balances of
Federal Funds Purchased and Subordinated Debentures produced a $37,000
increase in interest expense.  Together these changes accounted for 99% of the
change in interest expense.

      The combined effect of the increase in interest income and the decrease
in interest expense in the first nine months of 1996 versus the first nine
months of 1995 resulted in an increase of $612,000 in net interest income. 
Net interest margin increased 42 basis points from 4.79% to 5.21%.

      In the quarter ended September 30, 1996, interest income increased
$115,000 or 3.6% over the same period last year.  Higher rates earned on loans
combined with increased average loan balances and increased average total
securities balances were the major factors contributing to this increase. 
Rates earned on loans averaged 9.58% in the third quarter of 1996, 6 basis
points or 3.5% higher than the average of 9.52% in the third quarter of 1995. 
Loan balances (Net of Reserve for Loan Losses and Deferred Fees) averaged
$112.2 million in the third quarter of 1996, $1.7 million higher than average
net loan balances of $110.5 in the third quarter of 1995.  In the current
quarter total securities (taxable securities, nontaxable securities and
federal funds sold) averaged $38.1 million compared to $33.3 million in the
year ago period.  Higher loan rates and loan volume in the current quarter
contributed $50,000 of the above increase while the remaining $65,000 was
derived from higher security interest income.

      In the third quarter of 1996, interest expense declined by $73,000 or
5.1% from the same period last year.  Interest paid on time deposits declined
by $93,000 or 13% as average time deposit balances declined by $1.4 million
and average interest rates paid fell from 5.68% in the third quarter of 1995
to 5.09% in the current quarter.  Average money management balances also
declined in the third quarter of 1996 when compared to the same period last
year by $.3 million while the rate paid dropped by 25 basis points to 4.57%. 
This reduction in average balances and rate paid on money management accounts
accounted for an additional $29,000 reduction in interest expense.  The above
declines in deposit balances were more than offset by a $1.7 million increase
in lower cost NOW accounts, $.9 million increase in savings and money market
accounts and a $2.7 million increase in other borrowings from the Federal Home
Loan Bank.  These funds were borrowed at a fixed rate to fund fixed rate loans
for similar terms.  These borrowings, which increased interest expense by
$55,000, along with other minor changes in interest expense resulted in the
over all reduction in interest expense of $73,000.

      The combined effect of the increase in interest income and the decrease
in interest expense in the third quarter of 1996 versus the third quarter of
1995 resulted in an increase of $188,000 in net interest income.  Net interest
margin increased 30 basis points from 4.76% to 5.06%.

      The following tables provide summaries of the components of interest
income, interest expense and net interest margins on earning assets for the
three months and nine months ended September 30, 1996 versus the same periods
in 1995.

     The tax equivalent yield is calculated by dividing the adjusted yield by
1 minus the Federal Tax Rate.  The adjusted yield is determined by subtracting
the tefra penalty from the unadjusted nontaxable investment yield.  The tefra
penalty is found by dividing total interest expense (annualized) by average
assets and multiplying the result by 20% (tefra disallowed) and 34% (Federal
Tax Rate).

(F1)   Nonaccrual loans are included

       $344,000 in 1996 and $392,000 in 1995.
(F3)   Changes not due solely to rate change have been allocated to volume.


PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

      In the third quarter of 1996, the company provided $69,000 for loan
losses versus $91,000 in the same period last year.  This provision increased
the 1996 year to date provision to $276,000 versus $221,000 for the first nine
months of 1995.  The provision along with loan growth and net loan charge-offs
reduced the allowance for loan losses to loans receivable at September 30,
1996 to .98% from 1.06% at September 30, 1995 and 1.04% at December 31, 1995.  
Management's ongoing evaluation of the loan portfolio includes an analysis of 
loan volume, loan mix and the level of nonperforming loans.  Since year end 
1995 nonperforming loans have declined by $990,000.  Through this analysis 
management determined that the balance of $1,116,000 in the allowance for loan 
losses should be adequate to absorb losses inherent in the loan portfolio.

OTHER OPERATING INCOME

      Total other operating income in the third quarter of 1996 declined
$59,000 or 15.7% over the same period last year but increased $101,000 or
10.8% for the first nine months of 1996 over the first nine months of 1995. 
Income from service charges on deposit accounts remained somewhat constant at
$623,000 and $606,000 in the first nine months of 1996 and 1995, respectively. 
Gain on sale of available for sale securities declined from $74,000 in the 
first nine months of 1995 to $8,000 in the first nine months of 1996.  The 
significant increases occurred in other fees and charges.  The sale of SBA 
loans generated fee income of $99,000 in the first nine months of 1996 versus 
zero the prior year as this is a new activity for the Bank in 1996.  Fee 
income on the sale of 1-4 family mortgages increased by $23,000 from $97,000 
in the first nine months of 1995 to $120,000 in the current year to date 
period.

      Income from services charges on deposit accounts also remained somewhat
constant at $222,000 and $210,000 in the third quarter of 1996 and 1995,
respectively.  Gain on sale of available securities declined from $53,000 in
the third quarter of 1995 to $5,000 in the third quarter of 1996. Other fees
and charges also declined in the current period compared to the same quarter
last year.  Fee income on the sale of 1-4 family mortgages decreased by
$30,000 from $48,000 in the third quarter of 1995 to $18,000 in
the current quarter.  Fee income from the sale of SBA loans amounted to an
increase by $5,000 in the current quarter and somewhat offset the decline 
in mortgage fee income.  Together, these changes in fees earned accounted for
most of the $23,000 reduction in other fees and charges.  These activities are
expected to continue to generate fee income in the future.

OTHER OPERATING EXPENSE

      Other operating expenses for the first nine months of 1996 increased by
$225,000 or 5.1% over the figure reported for the same nine-month period last
year.  In the first nine months of 1996 salaries and benefits accounted for 
$161,000 of this increase.  Approximately $74,000 of this increase was in the
area of officer salaries, due to normal salary increases, the addition of an
officer to oversee the new business manager program and higher loan
commissions paid as a function of higher loan production.  Another $15,000 was
due to higher mortgage commissions as mortgage volume and fees increased.  The
Bank has a number of bonus programs tied to the net profit of the branches as
well as the overall Bank.  With year to date income up 14.2% in the first nine
months of 1996, accrued bonuses accounted for approximately $46,000 of the
increase in salaries. Normal salary increases, increased payroll taxes and
other sundry categories accounted for the remaining increases.

      Occupancy expense declined by $34,000 in the first nine months of 1996
compared to the same period the year before.  Net rental income from the
company's commercial office building which is deducted from occupancy expense
accounted for $19,000 of this decrease.  Other expenses increased by $98,000
mainly due to increased legal and accounting expenses associated to the
formation of the holding company and the potential purchase of a branch in
Contra Costa County.

      Other operating expenses increased by $43,000 or 2.9% over the same
quarter last year.  In the third quarter of 1996 salaries and benefits
accounted for $15,000 of this increase.  Normal salary increases and increased
bonuses and commission contributed to the increase.


Page 17 of 27

      Occupancy expense declined by $17,000 in the third quarter of 1996
compared to the same quarter the year before.  Net rental income from the
company's commercial office building which is deducted from occupancy expense
accounted for $7,000 of this quarter's decrease.  Other expenses increased by
$45,000 mainly due to increased legal expenses associated with the potential
purchase of a branch in Contra Costa County.  For the current quarter other
operating expense totalled $1,518,000 or 3.63% of average assets.  For the
nine months ended September 30, 1996 this ratio was 3.76%.  Management
continually reviews and attempts to minimize these expenses.  It is the goal
of the company to reduce the overhead ratio to 3.5%.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
      The Company recorded a $254,000 provision for income taxes in the third
quarter of 1996, which was $76,000 higher than the tax provision recorded in
the same quarter last year.  For the first nine months of 1996, the company
provided for $711,000 in income taxes versus $419,000 in the first nine months
of 1995.  Taxes were higher in both periods due to higher earnings as well as
lower tax exempt income from tax-exempt securities.  The effective tax rate
for the current period was 39.5% and 38.5% for the year to date period versus
33.3% and 29.6% in the same periods last year.  The Company does not
anticipate increasing its holding of tax-exempt securities in the near future.

LOANS
      As of September 30, 1996, net loan balances had increased by $3.0
million from year end 1995 totals.  The composition of loans also changed
significantly in the first nine months of 1996.  Construction and land 
development loans declined by $2.8 million while equity loans, loans secured
by 1-4 first liens, loans secured by commercial real estate and commercial
and industrial loans increased by $1.7 million, $2.2 million, $1.5 million
and $.7 million, respectively.  All other categories had a net decline of
$.3 million. The Bank's largest loan category, real estate mortgage loans
constituted 70.4% of total loans outstanding at December 31, 1995 and 72.4%
at September 30, 1996.  Loan growth is an intragal component of improved
earnings.  Management is continually marketing its loan products.  In the
current competitive market, pricing has become much more flexible while loan
underwriting standards have been maintained.

SECURITIES

      At September 30, 1996, securities available-for-sale had a fair market
value of $35,445,000 with an amortized cost basis of $36,065,000.  This
represents a $5,665,000 increase from the year end 1995 figure.  Short term
U.S. Treasury Bonds accounted for $4.0 million of this increase, while U.S.
Agency Bonds increased $3.6 million and mortgage backed securities issued by
U.S. Agencies declined by $1.2 million.  Securities issued by states and
political subdivisions in the United States also declined by .5 million in the
first nine months of 1996.  The portfolio at market value now consists of
approximately $4.0 million U.S. Treasuries, $13.5 million U.S. Agency bonds,
$6.5 million in securities issued by states and political subdivision in the
U.S., $11.0 million in mortgage backed securities and $.5 million in Federal
Home Loan Bank stock.  Approximately 48% of the debt security portfolio is
floating rate, tied to either the 11th District Cost of Funds Index, the 
one-year constant maturity treasury index or prime rate.  With an overall
increase in interest rates, September 30, 1996 compared to December 31, 1996,
along with a 19% increase in the AFS security portfolio, the unrealized loss on
securities available for sale increased from $111,000 to $620,000.  Although
the tax affected unrealized loss is a component of shareholders equity, this
figure is excluded from the calculation of regulatory capital ratios.  The
security portfolio continues to be a good source of both liquidity and income.

NONPERFORMING ASSETS

      As shown in the following table, total nonperforming assets have
dramatically improved declining $1,022,000 since year end, and by $1,250,000,
since September 30, 1995.  More significantly is the fact that nonaccrual
loans declined by $968,000 while accruing loans past due 90 days decreased by
$12,000.  At September 30, 1996, nonperforming assets represented .44% of
total assets while the ratio of allowance for loan losses to nonperforming
loans is 183.86%.  Management continues to make a concerted effort to reduce
problem and potential problem loans to reduce risk of loss.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

      The Bank maintains its allowance for loan losses at a level considered
by management to be adequate to cover the risk of loss in the loan portfolio
at a particular point in time.  This determination includes an evaluation and
analysis of historical experience, current loan mix and volume, as well as
current and projected economic conditions.

      The following table presents information concerning the allowance and
provision for loan losses.

LIQUIDITY

      Liquidity is measured by various ratios, The most common being the
liquidity ratio of cash, time deposits in other banks, Federal Funds sold, and
investment securities as compared to total deposits.  At September 30, 1996,
this ratio was 32.6%.

      The Bank also manages its interest rate sensitivity. The Bank believes 
that keeping overall risks at a low level achieves optimal performance.  The 
objective is to control risks and produce consistent, high quality earnings 
independent of fluctuating interest rates.  Specifically, for a 1% change in 
the federal funds rate, net interest income (NII) should not change by more 
than 5% and for a 2% change in the federal funds rate, NII should not change 
by more than 10%.  The Bank measures its interest rate sensitivity with the
"ALX" asset liability simulation model.  The model analyzes the mix and
repricing characteristics of interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities
using multipliers (how interest rates change when Federal Funds rate changes
by 1%) and lags (time it takes for rates to change after Federal Funds rate
changes).

      At September 30, 1996, the "ALX" model showed the Bank was moderately 
liability sensitive with a NII exposure of $130,000 or 1.7% for a 1% increase 
in the Federal Funds rate and a $534,000 or 7% exposure in NII for a 2% 
increase.

EQUITY

      As a result of the $1,136,000 earned in first nine months of 1996, the
$199,000 sale of common stock from the exercise of stock options and
conversion of debentures and the payment of $414,000 in dividends, the
following capital levels and ratios were obtained as of September 30, 1996. 
The following table also includes the regulatory capital minimums to be
considered well capitalized.

   There has not been any material default in (1) payment of principal,
interest, a sinking or purchase fund installment, or (2) any other material 
default not cured within 30 days, regarding any indebtedness exceeding 5% of

ITEM 4 - SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

ITEM 5 - OTHER INFORMATION

     SUBSEQUENT EVENTS - as reported on Form 8-K

     On October 12, 1996, the Bank consummated the purchase of the Concord
Branch of Tracy Federal Savings Bank.  The assets purchased consisted of Cash
on Hand, negative balance transaction accounts, savings secured loans and
corresponding accrued interest, leasehold improvements and personal
property.  These assets totalled $210,000.  The liabilities assumed consisted
of Branch Deposits and accrued interest of $15,484,000.  The consideration
which was 4% of adjusted deposits amounted to $610,000.  Of this amount
$550,000 is considered goodwill and will be amortized over 15 years.  Due to
the low overall cost structure of this branch the immediate negative impact on
earnings should be minimal.  As this branch generates loans, the purchase
should increase overall income.
