Horizon Bancorporation, Inc.
(A Development Stage Enterprise)
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)
September 30, 1999
Note 1 - Summary of Organization
Manasota Group, Inc. ("Manasota") was incorporated on May
27, 1998 for the purpose of becoming a bank holding company with
respect to a proposed de novo bank, Horizon Bank (the "Bank") to
be located in Bradenton, Florida. Manasota was later renamed
Horizon Bancorporation, Inc., Bradenton, Florida (the "Company").
Accordingly, all financial transaction undertaken by Manasota are
reflected in the Company's financial statements as of September
30, 1999 and December 31, 1998. The Company filed applications
with the State of Florida to charter a bank, with the FDIC to
insure the Bank's deposits, and with the Federal Reserve Board to
become a one-bank holding company and obtain membership. All of
the above applications were approved and the Bank commenced
operations on October 25, 1999.
The Company is authorized to issue up to 25.0 million shares
of its $.01 par value per share common stock. Each share is
entitled to one vote and shareholders have no preemptive or
conversion rights. As of September 30, 1999 and December 31,
1998, there were 21,600 shares of the Company's common stock
issued and outstanding and an additional 4,200 shares subscribed.
Additionally, the Company has authorized the issuance of up to
1.0 million shares of its $.01 par value per share preferred
stock. The Company's Board of Directors may, without further
action by the shareholders, direct the issuance of preferred
stock for any proper corporate purpose with preferences, voting
powers, conversion rights, qualifications, special or relative
rights and privileges which could adversely affect the voting
power or other rights of shareholders of common stock. As of
September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998, there were no shares of
the Company's preferred stock issued or outstanding.
The Company's Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws contain
certain provisions that might be deemed to have potential
defensive "anti takeover" effect. These certain provisions
include: (i) The Board of Directors is divided into three
classes with members of each class serving three-year terms with
the election of each class in successive years; (ii) membership
on the Board of Directors may range from six to twenty members
and may increase or decrease only by a majority vote of the
directors then in office; (iii) Board vacancies, including an
increase in the number of directors, can be filled for the
remainder of the unexpired term only by a majority vote of the
Directors then in office; (iv) directors may be removed if at
least two-thirds of the directors then in office approve the
removal as well as by a majority vote of the Company's voting
stock; (v) special meeting of shareholders may be called by a
majority vote of the directors then in office or by the holders
of at least 25% of the outstanding voting stock of the Company;
(vi) shareholders shall not be entitled to take any action by
written consent in lieu of taking such action at an annual or
special meeting of shareholders; (vii) certain transactions, such
as mergers or consolidations, may be approved by the vote of at
least two-thirds of the directors then in office as well as by a
majority vote of the Company's voting stock; (viii) amendments to
the Company's Articles of Incorporation can be approved by a vote
of at least two-thirds of the directors then in office as well as
by a majority vote of the Company's voting stock; (ix) amendments
to the Company's Bylaws can be approved by the Board of Directors
or by the shareholders at a duly constituted meeting, where such
action by the Board of Directors requires the vote of two-thirds
of the directors then in office or the affirmative vote of
holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock of
the Company; and (x) the issuance of preferred stock described in
the previous paragraph, which may also be deemed to have an "anti-
takeover" effect.
The Company filed a Registration Statement on Form SB-1 with
the Securities and Exchange Commission offering for sale (i) a
minimum of 243,638 units, each consisting of one share of the
Company's $.01 par value common stock plus one warrant to
purchase up to one additional share of common stock and (ii) a
minimum of 780,000 and a maximum of 1,116,362 shares of its $.01
par value common stock (the "Offering"). The Registration
Statement became effective February 9, 1999. The sales price for
each unit and for each share of common stock is $5.50. All
subscription proceeds are held by an Escrow Agent, pending
acceptance of subscriptions and completion of the Offering. If
the sale of the minimum (1,023,638) units and shares of common
stock is not accomplished by the expiration date, as extended,
all subscriptions will be canceled and all proceeds returned,
without interest, to the subscribers. If the sale of the minimum
(1,023,638) units and shares of common stock is accomplished and
all regulatory approvals obtained, the Company will capitalize
the Bank with at least $5.0 million immediately prior to
commencement of banking operations. As of September 30, 1999,
proceeds from the subscription of 874,130 shares were collected
and held by the escrow agent.
Certain organizers of the Company will receive a warrant, or
a portion thereof, for each share of common stock purchased by
that organizer. The number of warrants received will be
determined by both the number of shares purchased by that
organizer and the number of shares sold in the Offering. If the
minimum offering is sold, the organizers will receive
approximately .75 warrants for each share purchased, increasing
ratably up to a maximum of one warrant per each share purchased
if the maximum offering is sold. Each warrant entitles its
holder to purchase one share of the Company's common stock for
$5.50 for a period of ten years from the date the Bank opens for
business. The warrants will vest over a period of three years,
at one-third per year and beginning on the first anniversary from
commencement of banking operations. In addition to the passage
of time, the vesting of warrants requires each organizer to
attend a minimum of 75% of the Board of Directors meetings for
each year during the vesting period. All warrants, however, will
become vested upon the change of control of the Bank or the sale
by the Bank of all or substantially all of its assets. All
warrants are subject to approval by the banking regulatory
agencies.
The Company is a development stage enterprise as defined by
the Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 7,
"Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises," as
it devotes substantially all its efforts to establishing a new
business, its planned principal operations have not commenced and
there has been no significant revenue from the planned principal
operations.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form
10-QSB. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management,
all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included. Operating results for the three-month and nine-month
periods ended September 30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative
of the results that may be expected for the year ending December
31, 1999. These statements should be read in conjunction with
the financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended
December 31, 1998.
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting. The accounting and reporting policies
of the Company conform to generally accepted accounting
principles and to general practices in the banking industry. The
Company uses the accrual basis of accounting by recognizing
revenues when they are earned and expenses in the period
incurred, without regard to the time of receipt or payment of
cash. The Company has adopted a fiscal year that ends on
December 31, effective for the period ended December 31, 1998.
Organizational Expenses. Organizational costs are costs
that have been incurred in the expectation that they will
generate future revenues or otherwise benefit periods after the
Company reaches the operating stage. Organizational costs
generally include incorporation, legal and accounting fees
incurred in connection with establishing the Company. In
accordance with recent accounting pronouncements, all
organizational expenses were expensed when incurred.
Deferred Registration Costs. Deferred registration costs
are deferred and incremental costs incurred by the Company in
connection with the issuance of its own stock. Deferred
registration costs do not include any allocation of salaries,
overhead or similar costs. In a successful offering, deferred
registration costs are deducted from the Company's paid-in-
capital account. Registration costs associated with an
unsuccessful offering are charged to operations in the period
during which the offering is deemed unsuccessful.
Income Taxes. The Company will be subject to taxation
whenever taxable income is generated. As of September 30, 1999
and December 31, 1998, no income taxes had been accrued since no
taxable income had been generated.
Basic Income (Loss) Per Share. Basic income (loss) per
share is based on 21,600 shares outstanding, and amounted to
$(10.55) for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 1999.
Since there were no shares outstanding at September 30, 1998,
earnings per share information is not applicable. Note that the
above result is not indicative of future performance since
planned principal operations have not commenced.
Statement of Cash Flows. The statement of cash flows was
prepared using the indirect method. Under this method, net loss
was reconciled to net cash flows from pre-operating activities by
adjusting for the effects of current assets and short term
liabilities.
Note 3 - Commitments and Contingencies
In connection with the Company's formation and the
organization of its subsidiary Bank, the Company has entered into
three separate agreements with a bank consulting firm, a law firm
and an accounting firm to assist it in: (i) preparing and filing
all organizational and incorporation papers; (ii) preparing and
filing applications with the bank regulatory authorities
concerning the formation of a bank holding company and the
organization of a State chartered bank; (iii) preparing a
Registration Statement on Form SB-1, including the financial
audit and filing same with the Securities and Exchange
Commission; and (iv) drafting of employment agreements, stock
option plans and other matters relating to compensation. The
aggregate cost of the above services is estimated to approximate
$180,000 and may vary depending upon the degree of complexity and
time spent on the above projects.
On June 8, 1998, the Company entered into an agreement (the
"Consulting Agreement") with one of its organizers who will serve
as the Company's and the Bank's President and Chief Executive
Officer (the "CEO"). The Consulting Agreement, which commenced
June 15, 1998, is for a term of the earlier of (i) twelve months
or (ii) the date the Bank is no longer in the organization period
and has opened for business. Under the terms of the Consulting
Agreement, the CEO, for his services and efforts relating to
organizational matters of the Bank and the Company, is to be paid
$5,000 monthly until the Bank application is filed with the
regulators, $6,000 monthly until the minimum number shares of
stock is sold in the Offering and $8,000 monthly until the Bank
is opened. The Consulting Agreement provides for other customary
benefits, such as health, life and disability insurance. Also,
upon the Bank's opening for business, the CEO will receive a
$16,000 bonus. The CEO is currently being paid through an
employee leasing arrangement funded by the Company.
On October 28, 1998, the Company and the above CEO entered
into an employment agreement (the "Employment Agreement") which
will become effective when the Consulting Agreement terminates.
However, if the Consulting Agreement is extended, then the
Employment Agreement is effective at the earlier of commencement
of banking operations or December 31, 1999. The Employment
Agreement provides for an annual salary of $96,000 plus an annual
percentage increase identical to the increase in the Consumer
Price Index. In addition, the CEO may receive a performance
bonus ranging from 10% to 50% of his annual base salary if
certain performance objectives are met. The CEO would also be
entitled to other customary benefits such as annual vacation,
medical and life insurance, etc. The Employment Agreement also
provides for the granting of stock options to purchase shares
equal to 3% of the total shares sold in the Offering. The
options would vest ratably over a five-year period, with an
exercise price of $5.50 and an expiration date of ten years from
the date of issue.
The organizers as a group capitalized the Company by
acquiring 21,600 shares of the Company's common stock for an
aggregate amount of $108,000. Additionally, several organizers
subscribed for an additional 4,200 shares for an aggregate price
of $21,000. The organizers paid these funds subsequent to the
date of these financial statements but prior to the issuance of
this report. All shares purchased (21,600) or subscribed (4,200)
by the organizers will be redeemed and $129,000 will be returned
to the organizers once the minimum Offering is satisfied.
During 1999, the Company purchased an approximately 1.05
acre parcel of land for approximately $412,000. The land will be
used as the site for the Bank's proposed main office. The
proposed Bank intends to build a one-story facility with
approximately 5,000 square feet (expandable to 7,000 square feet)
of finished space. Total construction costs are estimated at
$665,000 with an additional estimate of $258,000 for furniture
and equipment.
On October 8, 1998, the Company entered into a one-year
lease arrangement, with a minimum of nine months, covering office
space from which it currently operates. Additional space was
leased during the first quarter of 1999 under similar
arrangements. Effective June 8, 1999, the Company renewed the
above leases for a period of one year. The total monthly lease
expense, including tax, is $1,337.
Please refer to Note 1 concerning warrants to organizers.

organizers' warrants.
Please refer to Note 3 for discussions concerning:

Note 5 - Notes Payable
In order to fund expenses incurred during the organizational
stage, the Company obtained a loan from an unrelated financial
institution in the amount of $300,000 and in the form of a one-
year non-revolving line of credit. The line of credit carries a

equipment and leasehold improvements, as well as the personal
guarantees of certain organizers.
On June 28, 1999, the Company obtained a $400,000 loan in
the form of a line of credit to purchase the site from which the
proposed Bank will operate. The loan matured September 15, 1999
but was extended to October 31, 1999. It carries an interest
rate of prime minus 1%, with interest payable monthly. As of
September 30, 1999, the entire balance of $400,000 had been drawn
