      The Registrant hereby amends and restates Item 2, Acquisition or
Disposition of Assets, and Item 7, Financial Statements and Exhibits, of its
Current Report on Form 8-K dated December 15, 1997 in its entirety as set forth
herein.

ITEM 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

      As of December 1, 1997, AmericasBank Corp. (the "Registrant") purchased
$2,150,000 of the capital stock of AmericasBank (the "Bank"), whereupon the Bank
became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Registrant, and the Bank consummated the
transactions contemplated by the Branch Purchase and Assumption Agreement dated
May 31, 1996, as amended, and the Loan Purchase and Assumption Agreement dated
May 31, 1996, as amended (collectively, the "Agreements"), between the Bank and
Rushmore Trust & Savings, FSB ("Rushmore"). The Agreements provided for the
purchase by the Bank of certain assets and the assumption of certain deposit
liabilities primarily related to Rushmore's Baltimore, Maryland branch office
located at 3621 East Lombard Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21224 (the "Baltimore
Branch"). The transactions contemplated by the Agreements are referred to herein
as the "Acquisition." The Acquisition was initiated when Kenneth Pezzula, a
director of the Registrant, and an organizer of the Bank, as well as a director
of Rushmore, approached management of Rushmore to propose the sale of the
Baltimore Branch to a group desiring to establish a new community bank. As of
October 31, 1997, Mr. Pezzula resigned as a member of the Board of Directors of
Rushmore.

      On August 7, 1997, the Registrant commenced an initial public offering
(the "Offering") of its common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the "Common
Stock"), pursuant to the Registrant's Registration Statement on Form SB-1 (No.
333-28881). Pursuant to the Registration Statement, the Registrant sought to
issue and sell a minimum of 240,000 and a maximum of 300,000 shares of the
Registrant's Common Stock at an offering price of $10.00 per share, primarily
for the purpose of raising the funds necessary to capitalize the Bank.

      The Offering was terminated by the Registrant on November 30, 1997 because
the Registrant had sold the maximum number of shares available in the Offering
as of that date. The Registrant sold a total of 300,000 shares of Common Stock
in the Offering, and received gross Offering proceeds of $3,000,000. As stated
above, as of December 1, 1997, the Registrant purchased $2,150,000 of the
capital stock of the Bank, and the Bank became a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Registrant. The Bank obtained all necessary regulatory approvals to commence
banking operations as of December 1, 1997.

      As stated above, the Acquisition closed as of December 1, 1997. At the
closing, the Bank assumed deposits booked at the Baltimore Branch totaling
approximately $7,680,000. The Bank acquired all of Rushmore's loans, including
accrued interest and charges thereon, originated at the Baltimore Branch (the
"Baltimore Branch Loans"), and certain of Rushmore's loans, including accrued
interest and charges thereon, originated at Rushmore's Montgomery County,
Maryland branch office (the "Montgomery County Loans"). At closing, the
Baltimore Branch Loans and the Montgomery County Loans totaled approximately
$6,504,000. In addition, at closing, the Bank acquired certain assets related to
the operation of the Baltimore Branch (the "Baltimore Branch Assets"), which
assets will be used by the Bank in its operations. The Baltimore Branch Assets
included the Baltimore Branch's real property, building and improvements and all
of the Baltimore Branch's fixtures, furnishings, equipment,


                                        2

furniture and other tangible personal property. The purchase price for the
Baltimore Branch Assets totaled approximately $80,000. At closing, the Bank also
paid Rushmore $50,000 for its agreement not to compete with the Bank, and a
deposit premium of 3.5% of the Baltimore Branch Deposits (plus accrued interest)
less $105,000, which totaled approximately $164,000. Finally, at closing, the
Bank was given a credit for $120,000 in deposits that it had paid Rushmore
through November 30, 1997.

      As a result of the transactions described above, the Bank received
approximately $1,002,000 in cash from Rushmore as consideration for the net
deposit liabilities assumed, less deposit premium.
