Stock options and warrants to purchase 2,287,005 and 2,051,005 shares of
common stock were outstanding as of March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively,
but were not included in the computation of diluted net income per share
because they were antidilutive.
(6) SENIOR NOTES
During the first quarter of 2000, the Company purchased and retired
approximately $32.1 million of Senior Notes which had been issued in
connection with the Company's recapitalization in 1997. As a result, there
is an extraordinary item charge to income amounting to $871,000, net of
tax.

(7) SEGMENTS
The Company operates as one segment. The operating information used by the
Company's chief operating decision maker for purposes of assessing
performance and making operating decisions about the Company is the
consolidated financial statements presented herein. The Company has one
active operating subsidiary, namely, Local Oklahoma Bank, National
Association, a national banking association (the "Bank"). The Bank, in
turn, has one active operating subsidiary, Local Securities Corporation
("Local Securities"), which is a registered broker-dealer under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and provides retail investment products to
customers of the Bank. While Local Securities qualifies as a separate
operating segment, it is not considered material to the consolidated
financial statements for the purposes of making operating decisions and
does not meet the 10% threshold for disclosure under Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 131 "Disclosure About Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information".

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
GENERAL
During the first quarter, the Company continued the strategic growth
initiatives which increased its commercial and consumer lending and expects
further growth in those areas. Also, during the first quarter, the Company
purchased $32.1 million of Senior Notes which had been issued in connection with
the Company's recapitalization in 1997. Although this action, reported as an
extraordinary item, reduced net income for the quarter by 4 cents per share, it
will have a positive impact going forward.
In this Form 10-Q, the Company, when discussing the future, may use
words like "anticipate", "believe", "estimate", "expect", "intend", "should" and
similar expressions, or the negative thereof. These words represent
forward-looking statements. In addition, any analysis of the adequacy of the
allowance for loan losses or the interest rate sensitivity of the Bank's assets
and liabilities represent attempts to predict future events and circumstances
and also represent forward-looking statements.
Many factors could cause future results to differ from what is
anticipated in the forward-looking statements. For example, future financial
results could be affected by (i) the Bank's shift from a savings institution to
a commercial bank; (ii) deterioration in local, regional, national or global
economic conditions which could cause an increase in loan delinquencies or a
decrease in collateral values; (iii) changes in market interest rates or changes
in the speed at which market interest rates change; (iv) changes in laws and
regulations affecting the financial service industry; (v) changes in competition
and (vi) changes in consumer preferences.
Please do not place unjustified or excessive reliance on any
forward-looking statements. They speak only as of the date made and are not
guarantees, promises or assurances of what will happen in the future. Various
factors, including those described above and those described in the Company's
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999, could affect the Company's
financial performance and could cause the Company's actual results or
circumstances for future periods to be materially different from what has been
anticipated or projected.
CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION FROM DECEMBER 31, 1999 TO MARCH 31, 2000
During the three months ended March 31, 2000, total assets decreased
$56.9 million or 2.4%. The $56.9 million decrease was due primarily to
reductions in the Bank's investment portfolio where the Bank took proactive
measures to counter further interest rate increases and the margin compression
that could result from such increases by shedding lower yielding investments.
The Bank's loan growth occurred in the commercial and consumer loan portfolios
where loan balances during the three months ended March 31, 2000 rose $31.3
million or 2.65% and $2.8 million or 1.75%, respectively.
Total liabilities decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2000
primarily due to decreases in FHLB advances which decreased $67.0 million or
22.2%. During the first quarter, the Company purchased and retired $32.1 million
of Senior Notes which had been issued in connection with the Company's
recapitalization in 1997. The Bank's total deposit portfolio remained relatively
stable at $1.9 billion as of March 31, 2000.
Total stockholders' equity increased $2.9 million during the three
months ended March 31, 2000 which represented net income during the period of
$5.1 million adjusted for a $2.2 million decline in unrealized holding gains on
securities net of tax.

<PAGE> 10
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 AND MARCH 31,
1999
Net Income. The Company reported income before extraordinary item of
$6.0 million or $0.29 basic earnings per share for the three months ended March
31, 2000 (based on 20.5 million average shares outstanding), compared to net
income of $5.1 million or $0.25 basic earnings per share (based on 20.5 million
average shares outstanding) for the three months ended March 31, 1999. The
extraordinary item charge to income amounting to $871,000, net of tax, occurred
in the first quarter as a result of the Company's purchase and retirement of
$32.1 million of Senior Notes.
Net Interest and Dividend Income. Net interest and dividend income is
determined by the Company's net interest spread (i.e., the difference between
the yields earned on its interest-earning assets and the rates paid on its
interest-bearing liabilities) and the relative amounts of interest-earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities.
Net interest and dividend income totaled $19.0 million in the three
months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to $17.0 million during the same period
in the prior year. The $2.0 million increase in the current period was
principally due to the net change in income on interest earning assets as volume
increases in commercial and consumer loan originations drove interest income up
$6.6 million. This increase was partially offset by a $4.6 million increase in
interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities as a result of volume increases
and, to a lesser extent, rate increases paid on those liabilities.
Interest Income. Total interest and dividend income increased by $6.6
million or 16.8% during the three months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to the
same period in the prior year The increase in interest income during the
comparative periods was due primarily to growth in the Bank's loan portfolio
where average balances rose from $1.42 billion at March 31, 1999 to $1.72
billion at March 31, 2000.
Interest Expense. Total interest expense increased $4.6 million or
20.7% during the three months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to the same
period in the prior year. This increase was driven primarily by increases in
interest paid on deposit accounts and advances which rose $3.2 million or 18.7%
and $1.5 million or 56.6%, respectively, during the three months ended March 31,
2000.
Provision for Loan Losses. The Bank established provisions for loan
losses of $500,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999. During
such respective periods, loan charge-offs (net of recoveries) amounted to
$70,000 and $91,000. The Company's basis for provisions was a function of
management's credit risk monitoring process that considers several factors,
including among other things, current economic conditions affecting the
Company's customers, the payment performance of individual large loans and pools
of homogeneous small loans, portfolio seasoning, change in collateral values,
and detailed review of specific large loan relationships.
Noninterest Income. The components of noninterest income consist of
deposit-related income, loan fees and loan service charges, net gains on sale of
assets and other miscellaneous income. Total noninterest income fell $116,000 or
2.6% during the three months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to the same period
in the prior year. The decrease was due to decreases in loan fees and loan
service charges of $215,000 or 32.0% and a decrease in net gains on sale of
assets of $163,000 or 49.8%. The decrease in loan fees was due to a decline in
residential loan originations. The decrease in gain on sale of assets was due to
a lower volume of residential loan sales into the secondary market.
Noninterest Expense. Total noninterest expense rose $601,000 or 4.7%
during the three months ended March 31, 2000 as compared with the same period in
the prior year. This increase resulted primarily from additional compensation
and benefits associated with the Company's continued efforts to hire experienced
commercial lending officers to grow its Oklahoma-based commercial portfolio.
However, the Company remains committed to holding its noninterest expense costs
to a minimum as evidenced by the noninterest expense reductions which occurred
in advertising, professional fees and other noninterest expense. Equipment and
data processing expenses increased $235,000 or 18.9% during
8
<PAGE> 11
the quarter ended March 31, 2000 as compared with the prior quarter. On February
18, 2000 and April 7, 2000, the Bank completed a successful system conversion of
two recently acquired institutions, Guthrie Federal Savings Bank and Green
Country Bank, respectively. A similar system migration is planned for Local
Oklahoma Bank in the second quarter as it consolidates all its current systems
into one integrated platform on the Alltel Horizon processing system.
ASSET AND LIABILITY MANAGEMENT
Asset and liability management is concerned with the timing and
magnitude of the repricing of assets and liabilities. It is the objective of the
Company to attempt to control risks associated with interest rate movements. In
general, management's strategy is to match asset and liability balances within
maturity categories to limit the Company's exposure to earnings variations and
variations in the value of assets and liabilities as interest rates change over
time.
Management's methods for evaluating interest rate risk include an
analysis of the Company's interest rate sensitivity "gap", which is defined as
the difference between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities
maturing or repricing within a given time period. A gap is considered positive
when the amount of interest-rate sensitive assets exceeds the amount of
interest-rate sensitive liabilities. A gap is considered negative when the
amount of interest-rate sensitive liabilities exceeds interest-rate sensitive
assets. During a period of falling interest rates, a negative gap would tend to
result in an increase in net interest income, while a positive gap would tend to
affect net interest income adversely. Because different types of assets and
liabilities with the same or similar maturities may react differently to changes
in overall market rates or conditions, changes in interest rates may affect net
interest income positively or negatively even if an institution were perfectly
matched in each maturity category.

(1) Adjustable-rate loans and securities are included in the period in which
interest rates are next scheduled to adjust rather than in the period in
which they mature and fixed-rate loans and securities are included in the
periods in which they are scheduled to be repaid, based on scheduled
amortization, in each case as adjusted to take into account estimated
prepayments based on, among other things, historical performance.
(2) Balances have been reduced for nonaccrual loans.
(3) Does not include unrealized gain on securities classified as available for
sale.
(4) Comprised of cash and due from banks, deposits with other banks, FHLB stock

applied against money market, NOW and passbook accounts.
(6) Maturity based on projected call date rather than actual maturity date.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity. Liquidity refers to the Company's ability to generate sufficient
cash to meet the funding needs of current loan demand, savings deposit
withdrawals, principal and interest payments with respect to outstanding
borrowings and to pay operating expenses. It is management's policy to maintain
greater liquidity than required in order to be in a position to fund loan
originations, to meet withdrawals from deposit accounts, to make principal and
interest payments with respect to outstanding borrowings
11
<PAGE> 14
and to make investments that take advantage of interest rate spreads. The
Company monitors its liquidity in accordance with guidelines established by the
Company and applicable regulatory requirements. The Company's need for liquidity
is affected by loan demand, net changes in deposit levels and the scheduled
maturities of its borrowings. The Company can minimize the cash required during
the times of heavy loan demand by modifying its credit policies or reducing its
marketing effort. Liquidity demand caused by net reductions in deposits are
usually caused by factors over which the Company has limited control. The
Company derives its liquidity from both its assets and liabilities. Liquidity is
derived from assets by receipt of interest and principal payments and
prepayments, by the ability to sell assets at market prices and by utilizing
unpledged assets as collateral for borrowings. Liquidity is derived from
liabilities by maintaining a variety of funding sources, including deposits,
advances from the FHLB and other short and long-term borrowings.
The Company's liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function
of funds management. Liquid assets are generally placed in short-term
investments such as overnight money funds and short-term government agency
securities. If the Company requires funds beyond its ability to generate them
internally, various forms of both short and long-term borrowings provide an
additional source of funds. At March 31, 2000, the Company had $617.0 million in
borrowing capacity with the FHLB, of which $300.0 million was available under a
collateralized line of credit. Borrowings as of that date totaled $235.0
million.
At March 31, 2000, the Bank had approximately $237.1 million of outstanding
loan commitments consisting of residential real estate, commercial real estate
and commercial business loans approved but unfunded. Certificates of deposit
which are scheduled to mature within one year totaled $1.0 billion at March 31,
2000, and borrowings which are scheduled to mature or reprice within the same
period amounted to $235.0 million. The Bank anticipates that it will have
sufficient funds available to meet its current loan commitments and that, based
upon past experience and current pricing policies, it can adjust the rates of
certificates of deposit to retain a substantial portion of its maturing
certificates and also, to the extent deemed necessary, refinance the maturing
borrowings.
On September 8, 1997 and in connection with the Company's recapitalization,
the Company issued $80.0 million of Senior Notes. Since that time, the Company
has purchased and retired $36.8 million of those outstanding Senior Notes. This
move will reduce future interest costs associated with those notes. The
remaining $43.2 million of Senior Notes have an annual debt service requirement
of $4.8 million (or $2.4 million for each semi-annual period).
Capital Resources. Bank holding companies are required to maintain capital
ratios in accordance with guidelines adopted by the FRB. The guidelines are
commonly known as Risk-Based Capital Guidelines.
On March 31, 2000, the Company exceeded all applicable capital requirements
by having a total risk-based capital ratio of 8.24%, a Tier I risk-based capital
ratio of 6.99% and a leverage ratio of 4.86%.
INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES
The Consolidated Financial Statements and related data presented herein
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles,
which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in
terms of historical dollars (except with respect to available for sale
securities which are carried at market value), without considering changes in
the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. Unlike most
industrial companies, substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the
Company are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more
significant impact on the Company's performance than the effects of general
levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same
direction or in the same magnitude as the prices of goods and services.
