PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
THE CORPORATION
Community Shores Bank Corporation (the "Corporation") is a bank holding
company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "Bank
Holding Company Act"). As a bank holding company, the Corporation is subject to
regulation by the Federal Reserve Board. The Corporation was organized on July
23, 1998, under the laws of the State of Michigan, and formed Community Shores
Bank (the "Bank"), which commenced business on January 15, 1999. The Corporation
exists primarily for the purpose of holding all of the stock of the Bank, and of
such other subsidiaries as the Corporation may acquire or establish.
The expenses of the Corporation to date have generally been paid using
the proceeds from its initial public stock offering in December of 1998. The
Corporation's principal source of future operating funds is expected to be
dividends from the Bank.
THE BANK
The Bank is a state banking corporation which operates under the laws
of the State of Michigan, pursuant to a charter issued by the Financial
Institutions Bureau of the State of Michigan. The Bank's deposits are insured to
the maximum extent provided by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The
Bank's primary service area is Muskegon County, which includes the City of
Muskegon, and Northern Ottawa County, which includes the City of Grand Haven.
The Bank, through its office at 1030 W. Norton Avenue, Muskegon,
Michigan provides a wide variety of commercial banking services to individuals,
businesses, governmental units, and other institutions. Its services include
accepting time, demand and savings deposits, including regular checking
accounts, NOW and money market accounts, and certificates of deposit. In
addition, the Bank makes secured and unsecured commercial, construction,
mortgage, and consumer loans, and finances commercial transactions. The Bank has
an automated teller machine ("ATM") which participates in MAC, a regional
network, as well as other ATM networks throughout the country. In addition to
the foregoing services, the Bank provides its customers with extended banking
hours, and is considering a system to perform certain transactions by telephone
to be provided by its data processing vendor. The Bank does not have trust
powers.
EFFECT OF GOVERNMENT MONETARY POLICIES
The earnings of the Corporation are affected by domestic economic
conditions and the monetary and fiscal policies of the United States government,
its agencies, and the Federal Reserve Board. The Federal Reserve Board's
monetary policies have had, and will likely continue to have, an important
impact on the operating results of commercial banks through its power to
implement national monetary policy in order to, among other things, curb
inflation or avoid a recession. The policies of the Federal Reserve Board have a
major effect upon the levels of bank loans, investments and deposits through its
open market operations in United States government securities, and through its
regulation of, among other things, the discount rate on borrowings of member
banks and the reserve requirements against member bank deposits. It is not
possible to predict the nature and impact of future changes in monetary and
2
<PAGE> 3
fiscal policies. The Bank maintains reserves with the Federal Reserve Bank on a
pass-through basis through a correspondent financial institution.
REGULATION AND SUPERVISION
The Corporation, as a bank holding company under the Bank Holding
Company Act, is required to file an annual report with the Federal Reserve Board
and such additional information as the Federal Reserve Board may require
pursuant to the Bank Holding Company Act, and is subject to examination by the
Federal Reserve Board.
The Bank Holding Company Act limits the activities which may be engaged
in by the Corporation and its subsidiary to those of banking and the management
of banking organizations, and to certain non-banking activities, including those
activities which the Federal Reserve Board may find, by order or regulation, to
be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a
proper incident thereto. The Federal Reserve Board is empowered to differentiate
between activities by a bank holding company, or a subsidiary thereof, and
activities commenced by acquisition of a going concern.
With respect to non-banking activities, the Federal Reserve Board has,
by regulation, determined that certain non-banking activities are closely
related to banking within the meaning of the Bank Holding Company Act. These
activities include, among other things, operating a mortgage company, finance
company, credit card company or factoring company, performing certain data
processing operations, providing certain investment and financial advice, acting
as an insurance agent for certain types of credit related insurance, leasing
property on a full-payout, nonoperating basis; and, subject to certain
limitations, providing discount securities brokerage services for customers. The
Corporation has no current plans to engage in non-banking activities.
The Bank is subject to certain restrictions imposed by federal law on
any extension of credit to the Corporation for investments in stock or other
securities thereof, and on the taking of such stock or securities as collateral
for loans to any borrower. Federal law prevents the Corporation from borrowing
from the Bank unless the loans are secured in designated amounts.
With respect to the acquisition of banking organizations, the
Corporation is required to obtain the prior approval of the Federal Reserve
Board before it can acquire all or substantially all of the assets of any bank,
or acquire ownership or control of any voting shares of any bank, if, after such
acquisition, it will own or control more than 5% of the voting shares of such
bank. Acquisitions across state lines are subject to certain state and Federal
Reserve Board restrictions.
EMPLOYEES
As of December 31, 1998, the Corporation employed 17 persons.
LOAN POLICY
The Bank makes loans primarily to individuals and businesses located
within the Bank's market area. The loan policy of the Bank states that the
function of the lending operation is to provide a means for the investment of
funds at a profitable rate of return with an acceptable degree of risk, and to
meet the credit needs of qualified businesses and individuals who
3
<PAGE> 4
become customers of the Bank. The Board of Directors of the Bank recognizes
that, in the normal business of lending, some losses on loans will be
inevitable. These losses will be carefully monitored and evaluated and are
recognized as a normal cost of conducting business.
The Bank's loan policy anticipates that priorities in extending loans
will change from time to time as interest rates, market conditions and
competitive factors change. The policy is designed to assist the Bank in
managing the business risk involved in extending credit. It sets forth
guidelines on a nondiscriminatory basis for lending in accordance with
applicable laws and regulations. The policy describes criteria for evaluating a
borrower's ability to support debt, including character of the borrower,
evidence of financial responsibility, knowledge of collateral type, value and
loan to value ratio, terms of repayment, source of repayment, payment history,
and economic conditions.
The Bank provides oversight and monitoring of lending practices and
loan portfolio quality through the use of an Officers Loan Committee (the "Loan
Committee"). The Loan Committee members include all commercial lenders, the
Senior Vice President and Senior Lender, the Chairman of the Board, President
and Chief Executive Officer, and other designated lending personnel. The Loan
Committee is presently permitted to approve requests for loans in an amount not
exceeding $750,000. The Loan Committee may recommend that requests exceeding
this amount be approved by a Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Board
Committee") whose lending authority is approximately $1,395,000. Loan requests
in excess of the Board Committee's limit require the approval of the Board of
Directors. The Board of Directors has the maximum lending authority permitted by
law. However, generally, the loan policy establishes an "in house" limit
slightly lower than the actual legal lending limit. The Bank's general legal
lending limit, as of March 1, 1999, was approximately $1,395,000, subject to a
higher legal lending limit of approximately $2,325,000 in specific cases with
approval by two-thirds of the Bank's Board of Directors.
In addition to the lending authority described above, the Bank's Board
of Directors delegates significant authority to officers of the Bank. The Board
believes this empowerment enables the Bank to be more responsive to its
customers. The Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer, and
the Senior Vice President and Senior Lender have been delegated authority, where
they deem it appropriate, to approve loans up to the limit authorized for the
Board Committee. Other officers have been delegated authority to approve loans
of lesser amounts, where they deem it appropriate, without approval by the Loan
Committee.
The loan policy outlines the amount of funds that may be loaned against
specific types of collateral. The loan to value ratios for first mortgages on
residences are expected to comply with the guidelines of secondary market
investors. First mortgages held within the Bank's portfolio are expected to
mirror secondary market requirements. In those instances where loan to value
ratio exceeds 80%, it is intended that private mortgage insurance will be
obtained to minimize the Bank's risk. Loans secured by a second or junior lien
generally will be limited to a loan to value ratio of 100%. Loans for improved
residential real estate lots generally will not exceed a loan to value ratio of
80%, and loans for unimproved residential sites generally will not exceed a loan
to value ratio of 75%. For certain loans secured by real estate, an appraisal of
the property offered as collateral, by a state licensed or certified independent
appraiser, will be required.
4
<PAGE> 5
The loan policy also provides general guidelines as to collateral,
provides for environmental policy review, contains specific limitations with
respect to loans to employees, executive officers and directors, provides for
problem loan identification, establishes a policy for the maintenance of a loan
loss reserve, provides for loan reviews and sets forth policies for mortgage
lending and other matters relating to the Bank's lending practices.
LENDING ACTIVITY
Commercial Loans. The Bank's commercial lending group originates
commercial loans primarily in the Western Michigan Counties of Muskegon and
Northern Ottawa. Commercial loans are originated by experienced lenders,
including the Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer, and
the Senior Vice President and Senior Lender. Loans are originated for general
business purposes, including working capital, accounts receivable financing,
machinery and equipment acquisition and commercial real estate financing,
including new construction and land development.
Working capital loans that are structured as a line of credit are
reviewed periodically in connection with the borrower's year end financial
reporting. These loans generally are secured by assets of the borrower and have
an interest rate tied to the prime rate. Loans for machinery and equipment
purposes typically have a maturity of five to seven years and are fully
amortizing. Commercial real estate loans may have an interest rate that is fixed
to maturity or floats with a margin over the prime rate or a U.S. Treasury
Index.
The Bank evaluates many aspects of a commercial loan transaction in
order to minimize credit and interest rate risk. Underwriting commercial loans
requires an assessment of management, products, markets, cash flow, capital,
income and collateral. The analysis includes a review of historical and
projected financial results. On certain transactions, where real estate is the
primary collateral, and in some cases where equipment is the primary collateral,
appraisals are obtained from licensed or certified appraisers. In certain
situations, for creditworthy customers, the Bank may accept title reports
instead of requiring lenders' policies of title insurance.
Commercial real estate lending involves more risk than residential
lending, because loan balances are greater and repayment is dependent upon the
borrower's operations. the Bank attempts to minimize risk associated with these
transactions by generally limiting its exposure to owner operated properties of
well known customers or new customers with an established profitable history. In
certain cases, risk may be further reduced by (i) limiting the amount of credit
to any one borrower to an amount less than the Bank's legal lending limit, and
(ii) avoiding certain types of commercial real estate financing.
Single Family Residential Real Estate Loans. The Bank originates first
mortgage residential real estate loans in its market area according to secondary
market underwriting standards. These loans are likely to provide borrowers with
a fixed or adjustable interest rate with terms up to 30 years. A majority of the
single family residential real estate loans are expected to be sold on a
servicing released basis in the secondary market with all interest rate risk and
credit risk passed to the purchaser. The Bank may periodically elect to
underwrite certain residential real estate loans, generally with maturities of
seven years or less, to be held in its own loan portfolio.
5
<PAGE> 6
Consumer Loans. The Bank originates consumer loans for a variety of
personal financial needs. Consumer loans are likely to include fixed home equity
and equity lines of credit, new and used automobile loans, boat loans, personal
unsecured lines of credit, credit cards (through third-party providers to
minimize risk) and overdraft protection for checking account customers.
Consumer loans generally have shorter terms and higher interest rates
than residential mortgage loans and, except for home equity lines of credit,
usually will involve greater credit risk due to the type and nature of the
collateral securing the debt. Strong emphasis is placed on the amount of the
down payment, credit quality, employment stability and monthly income. Hazard
insurance is obtained (in favor of the Bank) on certain loan types, including
automobiles and boats.
Consumer loans are generally repaid on a monthly basis with the source
of repayment tied to the borrower's periodic income. It is recognized that
consumer loan delinquency and losses are dependent on the borrower's continuing
financial stability. Job loss, illness and personal bankruptcy may adversely
affect repayment. In many cases, repossessed collateral (on a secured consumer
loan) may not be sufficient to satisfy the outstanding loan balance. This is a
common occurrence due to depreciation of the underlying collateral. The Bank
believes that the generally higher yields earned on consumer loans compensate
for the increased credit risk associated with such loans. Consumer loans are
expected to be an important component in the Bank's efforts to meet the credit
needs of the communities and customers that it serves.
INVESTMENTS
The principal investment of the Corporation is its investment in the
common stock of the Bank. Funds retained by the Corporation from time to time
may be invested in various debt instruments, including but not limited to
obligations of or guaranteed by the United States, general obligations of a
state or political subdivision or agency thereof, banker's acceptances or
certificates of deposit of United States commercial banks, or commercial paper
of United States issuers rated in the highest category by a
nationally-recognized investment rating service. Although the Corporation is
permitted to make limited portfolio investments in equity securities and to make
equity investments in subsidiary corporations engaged in certain non-banking
activities which may include real estate-related activities, such as mortgage
banking, community development, real estate appraisals, arranging equity
financing for commercial real estate, and owning and operating real estate used
substantially by the Bank or acquired for its future use, the Corporation has no
present plans to make any such equity investment. The Corporation's Board of
Directors may alter the Corporation's investment policy without shareholder
approval.
The Bank may invest its funds in a wide variety of debt instruments and
may participate in the federal funds market with other depository institutions.
Subject to certain exceptions, the Bank is prohibited from investing in equity
securities. Under one such exception, in certain circumstances and with the
prior approval of the FDIC, the Bank could invest up to 10% of its total assets
in the equity securities of a subsidiary corporation engaged in certain real
estate-related activities. The Bank has no present plans to make such an
investment. Real estate acquired by the Bank in satisfaction of or foreclosure
upon loans may be held by the Bank, subject to a determination by a majority of
the Bank's Board of Directors at least annually of the advisability of retaining
the property, for a period not exceeding 60 months after the date of
acquisition, or such longer period as the Commissioner of the Michigan Financial
Institutions Bureau may approve. The Bank is also permitted to invest an
aggregate amount not in excess
6
<PAGE> 7
of two-thirds of the capital and surplus of the Bank in such real estate as is
necessary for the convenient transaction of its business. The Bank's Board of
Directors may alter the Bank's investment policy without shareholder approval.
COMPETITION
All phases of the business of the Bank are highly competitive. The Bank
competes with numerous financial institutions, including other commercial banks
in Muskegon County and Ottawa County, Michigan. The Bank, along with other
commercial banks, competes with respect to its lending activities, and competes
in attracting demand deposits, with savings banks, savings and loan
associations, insurance companies, small loan companies, credit unions and with
the issuers of commercial paper and other securities, such as various mutual
funds. Many of these institutions are substantially larger and have greater
financial resources than the Bank.
The competitive factors among financial institutions can be classified
into two categories; competitive rates and competitive services. Interest rates
are widely advertised and thus competitive, especially in the area of time
deposits. From a service standpoint, financial institutions compete against each
other in types and quality of services. The Bank is generally competitive with
other financial institutions in its area with respect to interest rates paid on
time and savings deposits, charges on deposit accounts, and interest rates
charged on loans. With respect to services, the Bank offers a customer service
oriented atmosphere which management believes is better suited to its customers
than that offered by other institutions in the local market.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
The information shown under the caption "Stock Information" in the
Notice of Annual Meeting, Proxy Statement & 1998 Annual Report of the
Corporation ("Proxy Statement & 1998 Annual Report") furnished to the Securities
and Exchange Commission ("SEC") as Exhibit 13 to this Report is incorporated
here by reference.
In December of 1998, the Corporation commenced an initial public
offering of its Common Stock. Pursuant to the public offering, the Corporation
registered for sale to the public under the Securities Act of 1933, shares of
its Common Stock. The registration statement for the public offering was
assigned SEC file number 333-63769, and became effective on December 17, 1998.
Of the shares registered with the SEC, the closing for the 1,100,000 firm shares
included in the offering occurred on December 22, 1998, and the closing for
70,000 of the shares included in the Underwriter's over-allotment option
occurred on January 21, 1999. Accordingly, the public offering terminated by
January 21, 1999, after 1,170,000 shares covered by the registration statement
had been sold by the Corporation. The managing underwriter for the offering was
Roney Capital Markets, a division of First Chicago Capital Markets, Inc. The
shares were sold to the public at a price of $10 per share for an aggregate
offering price of $11,170,000.
In connection with the offering, the Corporation paid underwriting
discounts and commissions of approximately $654,000, and other expenses of
approximately $167,000; for a total of approximately $821,000 of aggregate
underwriting discounts and commissions, and other expenses of the offering. The
net proceeds of the offering received by the Corporation, after deducting the
discounts, commissions, and other expenses of the offering was approximately
$10,879,000.
From the net proceeds of the offering, the Corporation used $1,155,000
to repay director loans, with interest at 5% per annum, which were made to the
Corporation by members of it's Board of Directors to finance, on an interim
basis, the Bank's pre-opening expenses which consisted mainly of purchasing the
capital assets discussed below as well as expenses for salaries and benefits
($279,000), offering costs ($167,000) other than the Underwriters discount and
many other miscellaneous start-up expenses ($64,000).
9
<PAGE> 10
Additionally, from the net proceeds of the offering, the Corporation
contributed $8,063,000 in cash to the Bank and $1,237,000 in capital assets
including $445,000 of land purchased to build the Bank's main office and
$477,000 of banking equipment. In return for this capital infusion the
Corporation received 100% of the Bank's authorized common stock. The purchase
of the Bank's stock was intended to provide the Bank with the capital required
by the regulators to commence operations and to support asset growth, fund
loans, acquire investments, construct the main office, purchase any remaining
equipment necessary for operation and to provide payment for operating expenses.
On January 21, 1999, the Corporation opened a Money Market account with the Bank
in the amount of $1,000,000 and plans to leave most of this money on deposit
until more capital is needed by the Bank to finance future growth.
A summary of the sources and uses of the proceeds from the initial
public offering is set forth below:

PROXY STATEMENT
GENERAL INFORMATION
This Proxy Statement is furnished to shareholders of Community Shores
Bank Corporation (the "Corporation") in connection with the solicitation of
proxies by the Board of Directors of the Corporation for use at the Annual
Meeting of shareholders of the Corporation to be held on Thursday, April 15,
1999, at 2:00 p.m., at the Holiday Inn at 939 Third Street, Muskegon, Michigan,
and at any and all adjournments thereof. It is expected that the proxy materials
will be mailed to shareholders on or about March 15, 1999.
Any proxy given pursuant to this solicitation may be revoked by the
person giving it at any time before its exercise. Unless the proxy is revoked,
the shares represented thereby will be voted at the Annual Meeting or any
adjournment thereof.
The entire cost of soliciting proxies will be borne by the Corporation.
Proxies may be solicited by mail, facsimile or telegraph, or by directors,
officers, or regular employees of the Corporation or its subsidiary, in person
or by telephone. The Corporation will reimburse brokerage houses and other
custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their out-of-pocket expenses for
forwarding soliciting material to the beneficial owners of Common Stock of the
Corporation.
The Board of Directors, in accordance with the By-Laws of the
Corporation, has fixed the close of business on March 1, 1999 as the record date
for determining shareholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual
Meeting and at any and all adjournments thereof.
At the close of business on such record date, the outstanding number of
voting securities of the Corporation was 1,170,000 shares of Common Stock, each
of which is entitled to one vote. A majority of the outstanding shares will
constitute a quorum at the meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted
for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum for the
transaction of business.
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
The Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws provide that
the number of directors, as determined from time to time by the Board of
Directors, shall be no less than six and no more than fifteen. The Board of
Directors has presently fixed the number of directors at eleven. The Certificate
of Incorporation and By-Laws further provide that the directors shall be
1
<PAGE> 4
divided into three classes, Class I, Class II and Class III, with each class
serving a staggered three year term and with the number of directors in each
class being as nearly equal as possible.
The Board of Directors has nominated Gary F. Bogner, Robert L.
Chandonnet, Jose' A. Infante and Joy R. Nelson as Class I directors for three
year terms expiring at the 2002 Annual Meeting and upon election and
qualification of their successors. Each of the nominees is presently a Class I
director of the Corporation whose term expires at the April 15, 1999 Annual
Meeting of the shareholders. The other members of the Board, who are Class II
and Class III directors, will continue in office in accordance with their
previous elections until the expiration of their terms at the 2000 or 2001
Annual Meeting, as the case may be.
It is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed proxy to vote
such proxy for the election of the four nominees listed herein. The proposed
nominees for election as director are willing to be elected and serve; but in
the event that any nominee at the time of election is unable to serve or is
otherwise unavailable for election, the Board of Directors may select a
substitute nominee, and in that event the persons named in the enclosed proxy
intend to vote such proxy for the person so selected. If a substitute nominee is
not so selected, such proxy will be voted for the election of the remaining
nominees. The affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes cast at the meeting
is required for the nominees to be elected. Votes withheld and broker non-votes
are not counted toward a nominee's total.

biography of the suggested nominee, an indication of the background or
experience that qualifies such person for consideration, and a statement that

awarded to give senior management and key employees an additional interest in
the Corporation from a shareholder's perspective, and enable them to participate
in the future growth and profitability of the Corporation. In making awards, the

CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS
The Bank has had, and expects in the future to have, loan and other
financial transactions in the ordinary course of business with the Corporation's
directors, executive officers, and principal shareholders (and their associates)
on substantially the same terms as those prevailing for comparable transactions
with others. All such transactions (i) were made in the ordinary course of
business, (ii) were made on substantially the same terms, including interest
rates and collateral on loans, as those prevailing at the time for comparable
transactions with other persons, and (iii) in the opinion of management did not
involve more than the normal risk of collectibility or present other unfavorable
features.
As of February 1, 1999, the Bank had outstanding three loans to the
directors or executive officers of the Corporation and affiliated entities
totaling approximately $640,000 in aggregate amount under commitments totaling
approximately $1.45 million.
During 1998, organizers of the Bank loaned approximately $1,138,000 in
aggregate amount to the Corporation to cover organizational and other preopening
expenses of the Bank and the Corporation. Interest was paid on these loans at
the rate of 5% per annum. All of these loans were repaid by the Corporation from
net proceeds of its initial public offering in December of 1998. Each of the
organizers who loaned money to the Corporation was a member of the Corporation's
Board of Directors.
SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
The Board of Directors has selected Crowe, Chizek & Company LLP as the
Corporation's principal independent auditors for the year ending December 31,
1999. Representatives of Crowe, Chizek & Company LLP plan to attend the Annual
Meeting of shareholders, will have the opportunity to make a statement if they

MESSAGE TO THE SHAREHOLDERS
Muskegon, Michigan
February 23, 1999
Please let me take this opportunity to thank each one of you for investing in
Community Shores Bank Corporation. As an owner of this corporation, you are an
owner in Community Shores Bank, a true community bank.
I would like to tell you about our Bank and some of the exciting things we
anticipate over the next several months.
What makes us different from other banks is that we are locally headquartered.
What that means is that all decisions are made by experienced bankers who live
locally, in our community and who have a vested interest in making sure that
customer needs are being met in an effective and friendly manner.
Merger and acquisition activity in West Michigan over the past several years has
created a service void in our market and it is exactly that void which Community
Shores intends to fill. The comments we hear from people in our area, have led
us to believe that our community is eager and ready to endorse a bank that
provides high quality service with local management. Additionally, your Board of
Directors, all of whom are local community leaders, founders of and investors in
our Bank, are instrumental in the development and delivery of our community
banking orientation and strategy.
One of the primary reasons that Community Shores will be successful is because
of our employees. Community banking is all about people and providing services
that meet the needs of individuals and businesses. We have assembled a team of
experienced professionals who are highly motivated. We have given them products
that are very competitive, and surrounded them with technology and training that
is challenging, exciting, and most importantly fun.
Our market area is Muskegon and Northern Ottawa Counties. We intend to serve
small to medium-sized businesses and retail customers. Statistics indicate that
these markets have been experiencing rapid growth over the past several years
and we plan to be aggressive with business development efforts as well as civic
involvement.
From an operations perspective, it is important that we approach technology as
an ally that will help us balance economics with opportunity. Now that we are up
and running, our staff has begun looking for ways to develop new
technologically-based products that will lead the charge for increased revenue
in the next millennium. We are excited about these new developments and we look
forward to the year 2000.
All of us at Community Shores Bank make a pledge to you to do the very best that
we can to provide you with an investment that meets your expectations with
regard to financial growth and economic return. This is your bank, so please
stop by and see us, and become a customer as well as a shareholder. Our staff
will be pleased to show you our temporary offices and tell you about our new
main office which will be completed in the fall of 1999.
On behalf of our staff, thank you for the confidence you have shown in us and
your assistance in bringing community banking to this area.

PLAN OF OPERATION
Community Shores Bank Corporation was incorporated on July 23, 1998 to establish
and own Community Shores Bank. Based on preopening growth projections,
management believes that the Bank is likely to have adequate funds to meet its
capital requirements for the next several years.
Since opening its doors on January 18, 1999, the Bank has seen steady growth.
The majority of its growth has occurred in the commercial loan area as
management had expected. Within the next few weeks, management will start its
marketing awareness campaign and the permanent building will begin construction
in the first few weeks of March.
Management has chosen to fund anticipated loan growth in the later half of 1999,
in part, by obtaining brokered and out-of-state deposits to augment normal
deposit growth. At this time, local deposit growth has been adequate to meet
loan demands.
As of December 31, 1998, the Corporation had a retained deficit of $439,000. The
retained deficit was primarily the result of preopening fees and expenses.
Management believes that the Corporation will generate a net loss for 1999 as a
result of expenditures made to organize and grow the Bank to the size necessary
to generate revenues to exceed the cost of its overhead structure. Significant
ongoing additions to loan loss reserves will also contribute to this deficit due
to the projected increase in the loan portfolio. The expenditures made will
create the infrastructure and lay the foundation for growth in subsequent years.
The Corporation's plan of operation for the next 12 months does not contemplate
the need to raise additional funds during that period. Management has concluded,
based on current growth projections, that the Bank is likely to have adequate
funds to meet its cash requirements for at least the next several years.
Management has no specific plans for product research or development which would
be performed within the next 12 months. Management plans to expend approximately
$2.1 million for the land and building for its main office (including the
temporary facility to be used pending completion of the permanent facility), and
approximately $850,000 for fixtures, furniture, equipment and other necessary
assets. During the next 12 months, the Corporation does not anticipate requiring
substantial additional equipment. The Corporation is exploring leasing a
facility in Grand Haven, Michigan that is ready to serve as a branch bank in the
first half of 1999. The Bank presently has 20 employees. No significant changes
in the number of employees are anticipated in the next 12 months of operation.
S-3
<PAGE> 17
The approach of the year 2000 presents potential problems to businesses that
utilize computers. Some computer systems may not be able to properly interpret
or process dates after December 31, 1999 because they use only two digits to
indicate the year in the date. These computer systems do not properly recognize
a year that begins with "20" instead of the familiar "19". The effects of this
problem may vary from system to system. If not corrected, many computer
applications could fail or create erroneous results. The Corporation intends to
obtain information and account processing services and reports ("Processing
Services") from a reputable and experienced company that provides such services
for many financial institutions. The Corporation intends to obtain written
assurances from its Processing Services supplier and computer equipment
suppliers that their products are or will be year 2000 ready or compliant. The
Corporation intends to assess year 2000 compliance by the Corporation and its
vendors. Vendors whose year 2000 compliance may affect the Corporation's
business and operations include its Processing Services supplier, electronic
banking vendors, correspondent banks, utilities and communications companies.
Security systems, heating, ventilating, air conditioning and other systems may
also be affected. The Corporation expects to require assurances from commercial
borrowers as to their year 2000 compliance as part of the loan application and
review process. The Corporation has appointed one of its senior officers to
oversee its year 2000 programs, and the Corporation intends to apprise its Board
of Directors of the progress being made on a regular basis. Costs to the
Corporation related to year 2000 matters are estimated to be less than $25,000.
These costs may include testing of equipment and software programs, equipment
upgrades and customer education. It is difficult to predict such costs, and
additional funds may be needed for expenses relating to year 2000 testing,
training, education, system or software failure or replacements, or losses due
to vendor or customer failure to be year 2000 compliant. The failure of the
Corporation, its vendors, or customers to successfully address year 2000 issues
could interfere with the Corporation's ability to operate its business and have
a material adverse effect on the Corporation's financial condition and results
of operation. The Corporation intends to develop a contingency plan to address
year 2000 problems that may occur after December 31, 1999, and expects to
develop the plan during the first half of 1999.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Community Shores
Bank Corporation as of December 31, 1998 and the related statements of income,
changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows for the period from July 23, 1998
(inception) through December 31, 1998. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Corporation's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to in the first
paragraph present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Community Shores Bank Corporation at December 31, 1998, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for the period from July 23, 1998 (inception)
through December 31, 1998 in conformity with generally accepted accounting

COMMUNITY SHORES BANK CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1998
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Community Shores Bank Corporation (Corporation) and its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Community Shores Bank (Bank), after elimination of significant
intercompany transactions and accounts.
Nature of Operations: The Corporation was incorporated on July 23, 1998 under
Michigan law and will be a bank holding company owning all of the common stock
of the Bank. The Bank is a Michigan banking corporation with depository accounts
insured by the Bank Insurance Fund of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
(the "FDIC"). The Bank intends to provide a range of commercial and consumer
banking services in West Michigan, primarily in Muskegon County, which includes
the City of Muskegon, and Northern Ottawa County, which includes the City of
Grand Haven. Those services will reflect the Bank's intended strategy of serving
small- to medium-sized businesses, and individual customers in its market area.
Services for businesses will include commercial loans and traditional business
accounts. Management intends to initially focus the Bank's retail banking
strategy on providing products and services, including automated teller machine,
computer home banking, telephone banking and automated bill paying services to
individuals in the Bank's market area. The Bank began operations on January 18,
1999.
Use of Estimates: To prepare financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles, management makes estimates and assumptions based
on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts
reported in the financial statements and the disclosures provided, and future
results could differ.
Cash Flow Reporting: Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand
deposits with other financial institutions, short-term investments (securities
with daily put provisions) and federal funds sold. Cash flows are reported net
for customer loan and deposit transactions, interest-bearing time deposits with
other financial institutions and short-term borrowings with maturities of 90
days or less.
Premises and Equipment: Premises and equipment are stated at cost less
accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using both straight-line and
accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets.
Maintenance, repairs and minor alterations are charged to current operations as
expenditures occur and major improvements are capitalized. These assets are
reviewed for impairment under SFAS No. 121 when events indicate the carrying
amount may not be recoverable.
Stock Options: No expense for stock options is recorded, as the grant price
equals the market price of the stock at grant date. Pro-forma disclosures show
the effect on income and earnings per share had the options' fair value been
recorded using an option pricing model. The pro-forma effect is expected to
increase in the future as more options are granted. Options granted vest over
three years and have a maximum term of ten years.

COMMUNITY SHORES BANK CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1998
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Income Taxes: Income tax expense is the sum of the current year income tax due
or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are the expected future tax consequences of temporary
differences between the carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and
liabilities, computed using enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance has been
established to the extent of net deferred tax assets due to a lack of operating
performance to ensure that it is more likely than not it would be recovered.
Dividend Restriction: The Corporation and Bank are subject to banking
regulations which require the maintenance of certain capital levels and positive
retained earnings which will limit the amount of dividends which may be paid for
several years.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share: Basic earnings (loss) per share is based on weighted
average common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share further
assumes the issue of any dilutive potential common shares.
