                     ATLANTIC PREFERRED CAPITAL CORPORATION
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                 THREE AND SIX MONTH PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999

Note 1.        BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Atlantic Preferred Capital Corporation ("Atlantic Preferred Capital") is a
Massachusetts corporation incorporated on March 20, 1998. Atlantic Bank and
Trust Company ("Atlantic Bank") created Atlantic Preferred Capital to acquire
and hold real estate mortgage assets in a cost-effective manner and to provide
Atlantic Bank with an additional means of raising capital for federal and state
regulatory purposes. Atlantic Bank owns, indirectly, all of the outstanding
common stock of Atlantic Preferred Capital. Atlantic Preferred Capital intends
to operate in a manner which will allow it to be taxed as a real estate
investment trust, or a "REIT", under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended. As a REIT, Atlantic Preferred Capital generally will not be required to
pay federal income tax if it distributes its earnings to its stockholders and
continues to meet a number of other requirements.

The financial information as of June 30, 1999 and the results of operations,
changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for the periods ended June 30,
1999 and 1998 are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, the
financial information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal
recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles. Interim results are not necessarily
indicative of results to be expected for the entire year.

In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the
balance sheet and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates
that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate
to the determination of the allowance for losses on loans, the valuation of real
estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in satisfaction of loans, the
allocation of purchase discount between amortizing and non-amortizing portions,
and the amortization of discount on loans.

Note 2.        PREFERRED STOCK

On February 1, 1999, Atlantic Preferred Capital closed its initial pubic
offering ("IPO") of 1,260,000 Series A preferred shares. On February 12, 1999,
Atlantic Preferred Capital sold an additional 156,130 Series A preferred shares
in connection with the underwriters' exercise of their overallotment option. The
IPO was made pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-11, originally filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 2, 1998, as amended
(Commission File No. 333-66677), which was declared effective on January 27,
1999. The IPO commenced on January 28, 1999 and terminated shortly thereafter
upon the sale into the public market of all of the registered Series A preferred
shares.

The Series A preferred shares form a series of the preferred stock of Atlantic
Preferred Capital. The Series A preferred shares are validly issued, fully paid
and nonassessable. The holders of the Series A preferred shares have no
preemptive rights with respect to any shares of the capital stock of Atlantic
Preferred Capital. The Series A preferred shares are not subject to any sinking
fund or other obligation of Atlantic Preferred Capital for their repurchase or
retirement. The Series A preferred shares are not convertible into any other
securities of Atlantic Preferred Capital. The Series A preferred shares will be
exchanged on a ten-for-one basis for preferred shares of Atlantic Bank if such
exchange is directed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC")
under certain circumstances. The Series A preferred shares rank senior to
Atlantic Preferred Capital's common stock and Series B preferred stock, as to
dividends and in liquidation.

Holders of Series A preferred shares are entitled to receive, if, when and as
declared by the Board of Directors of Atlantic Preferred Capital out of assets
of Atlantic Preferred Capital legally available therefor, monthly cash dividends
at the rate of 9 3/4% per annum of the liquidation preference (equivalent to
$0.975 per share per annum). If declared, dividends on the Series A preferred
shares for each monthly period are payable on the fifteenth day of the following
month, at such annual rate, to holders of record on the last business day of the
monthly dividend period. Monthly dividend periods commence on the first day of
each month. The amount of dividends, if declared, payable for the initial period
or any period shorter than a full dividend period is computed on the basis of
30-day months, a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in the
period. Dividends in each period accrue from the first day of such period,
whether or not declared or paid for the prior monthly period. During the six
months ended June 30, 1999, Atlantic Preferred Capital's Board of Directors
declared dividends in the aggregate of $568,000 on Series A preferred shares.

Atlantic Preferred Capital has currently outstanding 1,000 Series B preferred
shares, of which 900 are held, directly or indirectly, by Atlantic Bank. The
other 100 Series B preferred shares are held by certain of Atlantic Bank's
employees and directors (and/or the spouses of certain employees). All of the
outstanding Series B preferred shares were originally issued to Atlantic Bank in
reliance upon the exemption from registration under Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended. There is no established public trading
market for the Series B preferred shares.

The holders of Series B preferred shares are entitled to receive annual
dividends equal to eight percent (8%) of the liquidation preference of the
Series B preferred shares. Dividends on Series B preferred shares are
cumulative, and all accumulated and unpaid dividends are paid before any
dividends are paid on the common stock. During the six months ended June 30,
1999, dividends of approximately $41,000 had accrued on Series B preferred
stock.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 AND 1998

Net income available to common stockholders increased $500,000, or 12.2%, to
$4.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999 compared to $4.1 million
for the three months ended June 30, 1998. Total interest income increased
$854,000, or 20.3%, to $5.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999,
compared to $4.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998. Interest
income from loans for the three months ended June 30, 1999 increased $664,000,
or 15.8%, to $4.9 million compared to $4.2 million for the three months ended
June 30, 1998. This was due to the average balance increasing $9.1 million from
$138.7 million at June 30, 1998 to $147.8 million at June 30, 1999 and the yield
increasing from 12.17% at June 30, 1998 to 13.23% at June 30, 1999.

(1) Non-amortizing discount is an allocation of the total discount on purchased
loans accounted for on the cost recovery method until it is determined that the
amount and timing of collections are reasonably estimable and collection is
probable.

Atlantic Preferred Capital intends that each loan acquired from Atlantic Bank in
the future will be a whole loan, and will be originated or acquired by Atlantic
Bank in the ordinary course of its business. Atlantic Preferred Capital also
intends that all loans held by it will be serviced pursuant to the master
service agreement.


                                       7

<PAGE>

Non-accrual loans, net of discount totaled $1.8 million and $3.9 million at June
30, 1999 and December 31, 1998, respectively. Loans are generally placed on
non-accrual status and interest is not accrued when the collectibility of
principal and interest is not probable or estimable. Unpaid interest income
previously accrued on such loans is generally reversed against current period
interest income and the loan is accounted for using the cost recovery method,
whereby any amounts received are applied against the recorded amount of the
loan. A loan is returned to accrual status when it becomes evident that all
principal and interest is collectible.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES AND DISCOUNT

In the normal course of business, the allowance for loan losses will be adjusted
through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings and will be maintained
at a level considered adequate to provide for estimated loan losses.

The provision and the level of the allowance are evaluated on a regular basis by
management and are based upon management's periodic review of the collectibility
of the loans in light of known and inherent risks in the nature and volume of
the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to
repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic
conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates
that are susceptible to significant change. Ultimately, losses may vary from
current estimates and future additions to the allowance may be necessary.

Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the
collectibility of the loan balance is unlikely. Subsequent recoveries, if any,
are credited to the allowance.

Quarterly reviews of the loan portfolio are performed to identify loans for
which specific allowance allocations are considered prudent. Specific
allocations include the results of measuring impaired loans under SFAS No. 114.
General risk allocations are determined by formula whereby the loan portfolio is
stratified by loan type and by risk rating category. Loss factors are then
applied to each strata based on various considerations including historical loss
experience, delinquency trends, current economic conditions, industry standards
and regulatory guidelines. Any remaining unallocated portion is reviewed for
adequacy in relation to the overall loan portfolio and in recognition of
estimates inherent in the calculation methodology.

Effective January 1, 1999, Atlantic Preferred Capital changed, on a prospective
basis, its method of accounting for purchased loan discounts and the related
recognition of discount loan income and provisions for loan losses. Such
accounting change accounts for discount loan income and loan loss provisions on
an individual loan basis, rather than as previously recognized in the aggregate
on a static purchased pool basis and was accounted for as a "change in estimate"
in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 20. There was no
impact on stockholders' equity on the effective date of the accounting change.
However, the timing of subsequent earnings will be affected by changes in the
amount of estimated collections on individual loans rather than by changes in
the aggregate amount of estimated collections on purchased loan pools. Over the
lives of the respective loans, management does not anticipate that there will be
any material impact in the reported amounts of related discount loan income,
loan loss provisions and loan charge-offs and recoveries as a result of this
change.

In addition, during the first quarter of 1999, Atlantic Preferred Capital
transferred $860,000 from non-amortizing discount to the allowance for loan
losses. Effective January 1, 1999, on a prospective basis, individual loan
balances are reported net of non-amortizing and amortizing discounts, if any.
Under pool accounting such discounts were available for allocation to all
loans purchased as part of a pool; under loan-by-loan accounting all
available discount is allocated to individual loans. Accordingly, in
connection with the accounting change, the transfer of $860,000 of
non-amortizing discount to the allowance for loan losses represented general
reserve allocations on outstanding purchased loan balances. As a result, this
transfer contributed to the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to net
loans increasing from 0.91% at December 31, 1998 to 1.79% at June 30, 1999,
with a corresponding decrease in the ratio of non-amortizing discount to net
loans. Accordingly, the transfer has no effect on the amount of total loans,
net.

</TABLE>

INTEREST RATE RISK

Atlantic Preferred Capital's income consists primarily of interest income on
mortgage assets. Atlantic Preferred Capital does not intend to use any
derivative products to manage its interest rate risk. If there is a decline in
market interest rates, Atlantic Preferred Capital may experience a reduction in
interest income on its mortgage loans and a corresponding decrease in funds
available to be distributed to its stockholders. The reduction in interest
income may result from downward adjustments of the indices upon which the
interest rates on loans are based and from prepayments of mortgage loans with
fixed interest rates, resulting in reinvestment of the proceeds in lower
yielding mortgage loans.

SIGNIFICANT CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

Concentration of credit risk generally arises with respect to Atlantic Preferred
Capital's loan portfolio when a number of borrowers engage in similar business
activities, or activities in the same geographical region. Concentration of
credit risk indicates the relative sensitivity of Atlantic Preferred Capital's
performance to both positive and negative developments affecting a particular
industry. Atlantic Preferred Capital's balance sheet exposure to geographic
concentrations directly affects the credit risk of the loans within its loan
portfolio. At June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998, 77.1% and 81.2%,
respectively, of Atlantic Preferred Capital's total loan portfolio consisted of
loans located in New England and California. Consequently, these loans may be
subject to a greater risk of default than other comparable loans in the event of
adverse economic, political or business developments and natural hazards in New
England or California that may affect the ability of property owners to make
payments of principal and interest on the underlying mortgages.

LIQUIDITY RISK MANAGEMENT

The objective of liquidity management is to ensure the availability of
sufficient cash flows to meet all of Atlantic Preferred Capital's financial
commitments and to capitalize on opportunities for Atlantic Preferred Capital's
business expansion. In managing liquidity, Atlantic Preferred Capital takes into
account various legal limitations placed on a REIT.

       Atlantic Preferred Capital's principal liquidity needs are:

       (1) to maintain the current portfolio size through the acquisition of
       additional mortgage assets as mortgage assets currently in the loan
       portfolio mature, pay down or prepay, and

       (2) to pay dividends on the Series A and B preferred shares.

The acquisition of additional mortgage assets is intended to be funded primarily
through repayment of principal balances of mortgage assets by individual
borrowers. Atlantic Preferred Capital does not have and does not anticipate
having any material capital expenditures. To the extent that the Board of
Directors determines that additional funding is required, Atlantic Preferred
Capital may raise such funds through additional equity offerings, debt financing
or retention of cash flow (after consideration of provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code requiring the distribution by a REIT of at least 95% of its REIT
taxable income and taking into account taxes that would be imposed on
undistributed income), or a combination of these methods. Atlantic Preferred
Capital has no debt outstanding, and it does not currently intend to incur any
indebtedness. The organizational documents of Atlantic Preferred Capital limit
the amount of indebtedness which it is permitted to incur to no more than 100%
of the total stockholders' equity of Atlantic Preferred Capital. Any such debt
may include intercompany advances made by Atlantic Bank to Atlantic Preferred
Capital.

<PAGE>

Atlantic Preferred Capital may also issue additional series of preferred stock.
However, Atlantic Preferred Capital may not issue additional shares of preferred
stock senior to the Series A preferred shares without the consent of holders of
at least two-thirds of the Series A preferred shares outstanding at that time.
Additional shares of preferred stock ranking on a parity with the Series A
preferred shares may not be issued without the approval of a majority of
Atlantic Preferred Capital's independent directors.

YEAR 2000 DISCLOSURE

The Year 2000 issue exists because many computer systems and applications
currently use two-digit date fields to designate a year. As the century date
change occurs, date sensitive systems recognize the year 2000 as 1900 or not at
all. This inability to recognize or properly treat the Year 2000 may cause
systems to incorrectly process critical financial and operational information.

Atlantic Preferred Capital is dependent in virtually every phase of its
operations on Atlantic Bank, including the computer and other systems of
Atlantic Bank. Accordingly, Atlantic Preferred Capital is addressing the Year
2000 issue with respect to its operations through its relationship with Atlantic
Bank under the advisory agreement and the master service agreement. During 1997,
the management of Atlantic Bank developed an action plan to address the Year
2000 issue. Atlantic Bank uses computer systems (including hardware and
software) primarily to track deposits and loans, transfer funds, prepare
financial reports, and perform financial calculations. Atlantic Bank's deposit
and loan processing is outsourced to BISYS, Inc. ("BISYS") under a service
agreement.

Atlantic Bank's plan includes five phases as suggested by the FDIC and other
bank regulatory authorities: awareness, assessment, renovation, validation, and
testing. In 1997, Atlantic Bank substantially completed the awareness and
assessment phases of the plan with regard to its computer systems, and
identified those areas that are considered mission critical. Atlantic Bank began
working with BISYS, reviewing its plans and determining how to validate the
readiness of its system. Also in connection with the awareness and assessment
phases of the plan, Atlantic Bank raised the Year 2000 issue with its vendors,
service providers, and customers. All vendors listed in Atlantic Bank's accounts
payable system were sent a questionnaire on the Year 2000 issue. Some vendors
provided written responses to the questionnaires and others were sent follow-up
letters and were telephoned regarding any follow-up questions or issues. Most of
Atlantic Bank's vendors have responded to its questionnaires and follow-up
letters. Based on these responses, most of Atlantic Bank's vendors have
indicated that they have a plan to remediate their systems as needed or are
already Year 2000 compliant.

Atlantic Bank recently signed agreements with Security First Technologies and
M&I Data Services for essential web hosting and other Internet related services
and for deposit and other processing services. As part of these arrangements
Atlantic Bank has received information and assurances as to the Year 2000
readiness of those service providers.

Atlantic Bank is in the process of evaluating the risk of customer failure to
prepare for the Year 2000 issue, any associated effect of the ability of
customers to repay outstanding loans and leases, and impact on the adequacy of
the level of the allowance for loan and lease losses. Atlantic Bank currently
considers Year 2000 risks in evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for loan
and lease losses. In accordance with applicable FDIC regulations, Atlantic Bank
has also distributed written materials to all of its depositors (including
deposit brokers) with over $250,000 on deposit regarding the Year 2000 issue,
including a description of Atlantic Bank's plan and the status of the plan.
Atlantic Bank also distributed questionnaires to its borrowers with loans
totaling $500,000 or more. Some of these depositors and borrowers provided
written responses to the questionnaires and others were sent follow-up letters
and/or were telephoned regarding any follow-up questions or issues. All of these
depositors and approximately 60% of these borrowers have responded to the
questionnaires and follow-up letters and have indicated that they have a plan to
remediate their systems as needed or are already Year 2000 compliant. Atlantic
Bank is continuing to follow-up with those borrowers who have not yet responded.

Atlantic Bank's plan calls for validation and testing with respect to all
mission critical systems. Mission critical systems include loan processing,
deposit processing, general ledger and funds transfer systems. Other systems
that are non-mission critical include the local area network, the network
operating system and desktop applications. In the first half of 1998, Atlantic
Bank upgraded its local area network, including the network operating system and
desktop application software. In addition, most of Atlantic Bank's desktop
systems were similarly upgraded. The manufacturer of the network operating
system and desktop application software has certified that all of these products
are Year 2000 compliant. Atlantic Bank has also conducted internal testing on
these products and has similarly concluded that they are Year 2000 compliant.
Atlantic Bank has also installed a test lab simulating a Year 2000 environment
with possible date sensitive components, including computers, operating systems,
and base applications. The manufacturers of its network operating system and
desktop application software have certified that all of these products are Year
2000 compliant.

Testing of the mission critical systems was completed according to the schedule
prepared by BISYS and, with respect to the funds transfer system, the Federal
Reserve Bank of Boston. The test period ran from November 1998 through April
1999. During this period, the entire test process was performed twice. Atlantic
Bank had an opportunity to re-test any applications that produced errors in the
initial testing. No significant Year 2000 processing problems were encountered
in Atlantic Bank's testing. Atlantic Bank believes that it and its vendors,
customers, and service providers are currently on schedule in accordance with
the plan.

Atlantic Bank's new executive offices were renovated in 1997 and early 1998,
with new building systems, such as fire and security alarm systems and HVAC
system, installed at such time. All of the contractors and suppliers of such
building systems have certified that their systems are Year 2000 compliant. The
building operator and Atlantic Bank have tested such systems and have similarly
concluded that such systems are Year 2000 compliant.

Atlantic Bank's risk management program includes emergency backup and recovery
procedures to be followed in the event of failure of a mission-critical system.
These procedures are being expanded to include specific procedures for potential
Year 2000 issues, and contingency plans to protect against Year 2000 related
interruptions. Atlantic Bank recently completed these contingency plans which
include backup procedures, identification of alternate suppliers, emergency
plans to handle power outages, telecommunication failures and other such
contingencies.

Based on its review to date, Atlantic Bank believes that the primary costs of
addressing the Year 2000 issue will include internal staffing, consulting,
system testing and modification. Atlantic Bank currently expects that the total
third party expenses associated with the plan will be approximately $150,000,
and will be incurred primarily from the third quarter of 1998 through December
31, 1999. The costs are not considered to have a material affect on operating
expenses or budgets of Atlantic Bank. Atlantic Bank plans to account for these
costs as expense items. The costs include an independent review by an external
firm under an engagement letter signed June 29, 1998.

While Atlantic Bank believes that it is taking reasonable steps with respect to
the Year 2000 issue, if the phases of the plan are not completed on time, the
costs associated with becoming Year 2000 compliant exceed Atlantic Bank's
estimates, third party providers are not Year 2000 compliant on a timely basis,
or customers with material loan obligations are unable to meet their repayment
obligations due to Year 2000 problems, the Year 2000 issue could have a material
impact on Atlantic Bank's financial results, and consequently may have a
material impact on Atlantic Preferred Capital's financial results. In addition,
Atlantic Bank's efforts to address the Year 2000 issue are being monitored by
its federal banking regulators. Failure to be Year 2000 compliant on a timely
basis could subject Atlantic Bank to formal supervisory or enforcement actions.
Any of the foregoing issues could have a material adverse impact on the ability
of Atlantic Bank to service Atlantic Preferred Capital's loan portfolio and
otherwise manage its business which could have a material adverse effect on
Atlantic Preferred Capital's business, financial condition or results of
operations.

The preceding Year 2000 discussion contains various forward-looking statements
which represent Atlantic Preferred Capital's beliefs or expectations regarding
future events. When used in the Year 2000 discussion, the words "believes,"
"expects," "estimates" and similar expressions are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, without
limitation, Atlantic Bank's expectations as to when it will complete the phases
of the plan; its estimated costs; and its belief that its internal systems will
be Year 2000 compliant in a timely manner. All forward-looking statements
involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results
to differ materially from the projected results. Factors that may cause these
differences include, but are not limited to, the availability of qualified
personnel and other information technology resources; the ability to identify
and remediate all date sensitive lines of computer code; and the actions of
governmental agencies or other third parties with respect to Year 2000 problems.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Asset and liability management is concerned with the timing and magnitude of the
repricing of assets and liabilities. It is the objective of Atlantic Preferred
Capital to attempt to control risks associated with interest rate movements.
Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and
interest rates. Atlantic Preferred Capital's market risk arises primarily from
interest rate risk inherent in holding loans. To that end, management actively
monitors and manages its interest rate risk exposure. Atlantic Preferred
Capital's management reviews, among other things, the sensitivity of Atlantic
Preferred Capital's assets and liabilities to interest rate changes, the book
and market values of assets and liabilities, unrealized gains and losses,
purchase and sale activity, and maturities of investments. Atlantic Bank's
senior management also approves and establishes pricing and funding decisions
with respect to Atlantic Preferred Capital's overall asset and liability
composition. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations--Interest Rate Risk"; "--Significant Concentration of
Credit Risk" and "--Liquidity Risk Management" beginning on page 9 of this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Atlantic Preferred Capital's methods for evaluating interest rate risk include
an analysis of its 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 rising interest rates, a negative gap would tend to
adversely affect net interest income, while a positive gap would tend to result
in an increase in net interest income. 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 adversely affect net interest income.
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.

Quantitative information regarding market risk has not changed significantly
since December 31, 1998.
