COMMUNITY BANCORP INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2000
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
The interim financial statements included herein have been prepared by Community
Bancorp Inc. without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). The interim financial statements
include Community Bancorp Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries Fallbrook
National Bank (the "Bank") and Community (CA) Capital Trust I (the "Trust"),
(collectively, the "Company") as consolidated with the elimination of all
intercompany transactions. Certain information and footnote disclosures,
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America, have been
condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. Nevertheless,
the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information
presented not misleading. These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in
the Company's latest Annual Report as found on Form 10KSB. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments necessary to
present fairly the financial position of the Company with respect to the interim
financial statements and the results of its operations for the interim period
ended June 30, 2000, have been included. Certain reclassifications may have been
made to prior year amounts to conform to the 2000 presentation. The results of
operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the
full year.
NOTE 2 LOANS AND RELATED ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES:
A summary of loans as of June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 is as follows:

Net loans $195,722 $144,194
===================================
</TABLE>
The Company's lending activities are concentrated primarily in Southern
California. Although the Company seeks to avoid undue concentrations of loans to
a single industry based upon a single class of collateral, real estate and real
estate associated business areas are among the principal industries in the
Company's market area. As a result, the Company's loan and collateral portfolios
are, to some degree, concentrated in those industries. The Company evaluates
each credit on an individual basis and determines collateral requirements
accordingly. When real estate is taken as collateral, advances are generally
limited to a certain percentage of the appraised value of the collateral at the
time the loan is made, depending on the type of loan, the underlying property
and other factors.

<PAGE>
NOTE 3 SALES AND SERVICING OF SBA LOANS:
Starting in the first quarter of 2000, the Company changed its policy to hold to
maturity the guaranteed portion of SBA 7a loans. In the past, the Company
generated revenues from the origination of loans guaranteed by the SBA and the
sale of guaranteed and unguaranteed portions of those loans in the secondary
market. The Company retained the servicing on the sale of SBA loans that creates
loan servicing income. The Company measures the servicing asset by discounting
the respective cash flow for the estimated expected life of the loans. The
Company uses industry prepayment statistics in estimating the expected life.
Servicing assets are initially measured at market rates.
If the fair value of the servicing assets is less than the amortized carrying
value, the asset is considered impaired. A valuation allowance must be
established for the impaired asset by a charge against income for the difference
between the amortized carrying value and the fair value. As of June 30, 2000,
there was no material difference between the Company's amortized carrying value
for the servicing assets and the fair value and the Company had no valuation
allowance established for these assets.
NOTE 4 CONTINGENCIES:
Because of the nature of its activities, the Company is at all times subject to
pending and threatened legal actions which arise out of the normal course of its
business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these
matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial
position, results of operations or liquidity.
NOTE 5 FORMATION OF HOLDING COMPANY:
The Company was formed through a holding company reorganization of Fallbrook
National Bank, wherein Fallbrook National Bank became the wholly owned
subsidiary of Community Bancorp Inc. as of June 25, 1999. The transaction was
based on a one for one exchange of shares of Fallbrook National Bank stock for
shares of common stock of Community Bancorp Inc., and was not considered a
taxable event for IRS purposes. Such business combination was accounted for at
historical cost, similar to a pooling of interest. All references to periods
prior to June 30, 1999 are references to financial statements of the Bank.

NOTE 8 RECENT ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS
SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,"
was issued in June 1998 and establishes accounting and reporting standards for
derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in
other contracts, (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging
activities. SFAS No. 133 was effective for all fiscal quarters beginning after
June 15, 1999. In July 1999, SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB
Statement No. 133," was issued, which delays the effective date of SFAS No. 133
to fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. Earlier application is
encouraged, but it is permitted only as of the beginning of any fiscal quarter
that begins after June 1998. The adoption of the provisions of SFAS No. 133, as
amended by SFAS No. 137 and by SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative
Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities - an amendment to FASB Statement
No. 133" issued June 2000, is not expected to have a material impact on the
results of operations, the financial position, or cash flows of the Company.
In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Committee issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin 101, Revenue Recognition ("SAB 101"). SAB 101 summarizes
certain of the SEC staff's views in applying generally accepted accounting
principles to selected revenue recognition issues in financial statements.
Implementation of SAB 101, which was delayed by the issuance of SAB 101A on
March 27, 2000 and SAB 101B on June 26, 2000 is required by the fourth
quarter of 2000. It is not expected that the adoption of SAB 101, as amended,
will have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, financial
position or cash flows.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following is management's discussion and analysis of the major factors that
influenced the financial performance of the Company for the six and three months
ended June 30, 2000. This analysis should be read in conjunction with the
Company's 1999 Annual Report as filed on form 10KSB and with the unaudited
financial statements and notes as set forth in this report.
Statements concerning future performance, developments or events concerning
expectation for growth and market forecasts, and any other guidance on future
periods, constitute forward-looking statements which are subject to a number of
risks and uncertainties which might cause actual results to differ materially
from stated expectations.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NET INCOME
Net income decreased 67.21% to $241,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000
compared to $735,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999. Basic earnings per
share was $0.10 and $0.31 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively. Diluted earnings per share was $0.10 and $0.30 for the six months
ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Earnings per share for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 were adjusted for the effects of a stock dividend
paid in November 1999. The decrease in net income was mainly due to the decrease
in other operating income, partially offset by an increase in net interest
income after provision for loan losses and a decrease in other operating
expenses. Interest income increased due to an increase in average interest
earning assets, and other operating income decreased during the six months ended
June 30, 2000 due to the Company's change in policy from selling the guaranteed
and unguaranteed portions of SBA 7a loans to retention of the SBA 7a loans. This
change in policy became effective January 1, 2000. Although management
anticipates that earnings will improve throughout each of the remaining quarters
of 2000, the net income for the year will be significantly reduced when compared
to 1999. Management expects that earnings will improve significantly in 2001 as
the increased net interest income will more than offset the revenue from gain on
sale of loans.
Return on average assets for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was 0.23%
compared to 1.04% for the six months ended June 30, 1999. The decrease in the
return on average assets from 1999 to 2000 was due to the reduction in net
income noted above, combined with the 50% growth in total assets, which was part
of the Company's strategic plan. The return on average equity was 4.30% for the
six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to 14.77% for the six months ended June
30, 1999.
Net income decreased 48.43% to $197,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000
compared to $382,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999. Basic earnings
per share were $0.08 and $0.16 for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and
1999, respectively. Diluted earnings per share were $0.08 and $0.16 for the
three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Earnings per share for
the three months ended June 30, 1999 were adjusted for the effects of a stock
dividend paid in December 1999. The decrease in net income was mainly due to the
decrease in other operating income, partially offset by an increase in net
interest income after provision for loan losses and a decrease in other
operating expenses. Interest income increased due to an increase in average
interest earning assets, and other operating income decreased during the three
months ended June 30, 2000 due to the Company's change in policy from selling
the guaranteed and unguaranteed portions of SBA 7a loans to retention of the SBA
7a loans. This change in policy became effective January 1, 2000.
Return on average assets for the three months ended June 30, 2000 was 0.36%
compared to 1.03% for the three months ended June 30, 1999. The decrease in the
return on average assets from 1999 to 2000 was due to the decrease in net
income, as noted above. The return on

INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income is the most significant component of the Company's income
from operations. Net interest income is the difference (the "interest rate
spread") between the gross interest and fees earned on the loan and investment
portfolios and the interest paid on deposits and other borrowings. Net interest
income depends on the volume of and interest rate earned on interest earning
assets and the volume of and interest rate paid on interest bearing liabilities.
The following table sets forth a summary of average balances with corresponding
interest income and interest expense as well as average yield and cost
information for the periods presented. Average balances are derived from daily
balances, and nonaccrual loans are included as interest earning assets for
purposes of this table.

Interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2000 increased to $8.8
million, compared to $6.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999. This
increase was due to an increase in the average balance of interest earning
assets, partially offset by a decrease in the yield on those assets. Average
interest earning assets increased to $190.7 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2000 compared to $128.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999.
The yield on interest earning assets decreased to 9.24% for the six months ended
June 30, 2000 compared to
11
<PAGE>
9.64% for the six months ended June 30, 1999. During the fourth quarter of 1999,
the Company changed its estimates as to the costs of originating a loan, which
resulted in a higher monthly amortization cost being charged against interest
income. This in turn reduced the yield on the loans originated. In addition,
increased competition by other financial intermediaries has resulted in tighter
margins than had previously been experienced by the Company. The largest single
component of interest earning assets was loans receivable, which had an average
balance of $170.7 million with a yield of 9.64% for the six months ended June
30, 2000 compared to $115.9 million with a yield of 10.17% for the six months
ended June 30, 1999. The increase in the average balance of loans receivable was
attributable to the expansion of the Company as part of the Company's strategic
plan, including the retention of SBA 7a loans.
Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2000 increased to $3.9
million compared to $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999. This
increase was due to an increase in average deposits and other borrowings,
combined with a change in the composition of those liabilities, and by an
increase in the cost of those liabilities. Average interest-bearing
liabilities increased to $193.4 million for the six months ended June 30,
2000 compared to $131.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999.
Average time deposits increased to $98.0 million with a cost of 5.81% for the
six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $44.4 million with a cost of 4.94%
for the six months ended June 30, 1999. Beginning on January 1, 2000, the
Company changed its policy regarding the sale of SBA 7a loans from one of
selling the guaranteed and unguaranteed portions to retaining the guaranteed
and unguaranteed portions. The resulting increase in total loans is being
funded by both retail and wholesale certificates of deposit, with the
wholesale deposits having a higher interest rate than the retail deposits.
Although the wholesale deposits have a higher interest rate, there is limited
operating costs associated with acquiring and managing these liabilities. As
of June 30, 2000 wholesale deposits totaled $22.1 million and have maturities
ranging from three months to one year. In addition, interest rates in general
have risen considerably from the second quarter of 1999 to the second quarter
of 2000.
Other average borrowings increased to $7.8 million with a cost of 10.85% for
the six months ended June 30, 2000, compared to $1.0 million with a cost of
9.14% for the six months ended June 30, 1999.The Company borrowed $3.2
million in June, 1999, of which $3.0 million was used to increase capital at
its Bank subsidiary. The Company's subsidiary, Community (CA) Capital Trust
I, issued $10 million of 11.0% Fixed Rate Capital Trust Pass-through
Securities ("TRUPS-Registered Trademark-"), with a liquidation value of
$1,000 per share. The Company used the proceeds to pay off the $3.2 million
in borrowed funds, and invested an additional $6.0 million in the Bank.

Interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2000 increased to $4.8
million, compared to $3.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999. This
increase was due to an increase in the average balance of interest earning
assets, partially offset by a decrease in the yield on those assets. Average
interest earning assets increased to $206.1 million for the three months ended

increased to $208.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000 compared to
$137.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999. Average time deposits
increased to $108.0 million with a cost of 5.91% for the three months ended June

Other average borrowings increased to $11.1 million with a cost of 11.17% for
the three months ended June 30, 2000, compared to $1.0 million with a cost of
9.14% for the three months ended June 30, 1999.The Company borrowed $3.2
million in June, 1999, of which $3.0 million was used to increase capital at
its Bank subsidiary. The Company's subsidiary, Community (CA) Capital Trust
I, issued $10 million of 11.0% Fixed Rate Capital Trust Pass-through

NET INTEREST INCOME BEFORE PROVISION FOR ESTIMATED LOAN LOSSES
Net interest income before provision for estimated loan losses for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 was $4.9 million, compared to $4.3 million for the
six months ended June 30, 1999. This increase was primarily due to the increase
in average interest earning assets and partially offset by a decrease in the net
interest margin. Average interest earning assets were $190.7 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 with a net interest margin of 5.11% compared to
$128.8 million with a net interest margin of 6.67% for the six months ended June
30, 1999. The decline in the net interest margin was primarily due to the rising
interest rate environment, combined with the increased use of certificates of
deposits as well as other borrowed funds in order to support its expanding loan
portfolio. In addition, the decline in yield on interest earning assets due to
the change of estimates regarding the cost of originating a loan and the
increased competition in the market place contributed to the decreased margin.
Management believes that a rising interest rate environment will positively
effect the yield on interest earning assets in the future, while the increased
cost of liabilities through the additional use of wholesale deposits and
borrowed funds will offset this improvement, resulting in a slightly reduced
margin for the subsequent quarters in 2000. However, management believes that
the increased volume of interest earning assets due to the retention of SBA 7a
loans will result in a significantly higher net interest income in the future.
Net interest income before provision for estimated loan losses for the three
months ended June 30, 2000 was $2.6 million, compared to $2.2 million for the
three months ended June 30, 1999. This increase was primarily due to the
increase in average interest earning assets and partially offset by a decrease
in the net interest margin. Average interest earning assets were $206.1 million
for the three months ended June 30, 2000 with a net interest margin of 5.11%
compared to $134.1 million with a net interest margin of 6.57% for the three
months ended June 30, 1999. The decline in the net interest margin was primarily
due to the rising interest rate environment, combined with the increased use of
certificates of deposits as well as other borrowed funds in order to support its
expanding loan portfolio. In addition, the decline in yield on interest earning
assets due to the change of estimates regarding the cost of originating a loan
and the increased competition in the market place contributed to the decreased
margin.
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
Net charge offs totaled $27,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared
to $21,000 during the six months ended June 30, 1999. Due to the growth in loans
and the historical loss experience associated with the various loan types, the
provision for loan losses totaled $337,000
14
<PAGE>
for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $315,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 1999. As a result of the increase in total loans outstanding,
management increased the allowance for loan losses to $1.6 million as of June
30, 2000 compared to $1.3 million as of June 30, 1999. As of June 30, 2000, the
allowance was 0.83% of total gross loans compared to 1.15% as of June 30, 1999.
When excluding the guaranteed portions of loans and loans held for sale, the
allowance was 1.02% and 1.23% respectively as a percentage of total gross loans
as of June 30, 2000 and June 30, 1999. The allowance for loan losses as a
percentage of nonaccrual loans was 92.74% as of June 30, 2000 compared to
120.07% as of June 30, 1999. When excluding the guaranteed portion of nonaccrual
loans, the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of nonaccrual loans was
292.81% as of June 30, 2000 compared to 155.13% as of June 30, 1999.
For the three months ended June 30, 2000, net charge offs totaled $68,000
compared to $21,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999. Provisions for
loan losses totaled $177,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000 compared
to $165,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999.
Nonaccrual loans as of June 30, 2000 were $1.8 million, of which $1.2 million is
guaranteed by the SBA, compared to $1.8 million, with $1.4 million guaranteed by
the SBA as of December 31, 1999 and $1.1 million, with $242,000 guaranteed by
the SBA as of June 30, 1999.
In determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, management
initially considers the allowances specifically allocated to individual impaired
loans, and next considers the level of general loss allowances deemed
appropriate for the balance of the portfolio based on factors including the
levels of classified assets, general portfolio trends relative to asset and
portfolio size, asset categories, potential credit concentrations, nonaccrual
loan levels, historical loss experience, risks associated with changes in
economic and business conditions, and other factors. In addition, various
regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process,
periodically review the Company's allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may
require the Company to make additional provisions for loan losses based upon
judgments which differ from those of management.
OTHER OPERATING INCOME
Other operating income represents non-interest types of revenue and is comprised
primarily of other fee income, loan servicing fees and service charges on
deposit accounts. Prior to January 1, 2000 gain on sale income made up a
significant portion of other fee income. Other operating income was $1.1 million
for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $2.8 million months ended
June 30, 1999. This represents a decrease of $1.7 million, or 61.5%, when
comparing the six month period ended June 30, 2000 to the six month period ended
June 30, 1999. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease in the gain on sale of
loans, which totaled $93,000 for the six month period ended June 30, 2000
compared to $1.7 million for the six month period ended June 30, 1999. The
decrease in gain on sale of loans was due to a change in the Company's policy to
retain SBA 7a loans versus selling such loans in the secondary market. The
Company sold $6.4 million in mortgage loans and $2.6 million in SBA 504 loans
during the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $18.5 million in mortgage
loans and $28.7 million in SBA 504 and 7a loans during the six month period
ended June 30, 1999.
Other operating income was $477,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000
compared to $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999. This
represents a decrease of $937,000, or 66.3%, when comparing the three month
period ended June 30, 2000 to the three month period ended June 30, 1999. The
decrease was mainly due to a decrease in the gain on sale of loans, which
totaled $46,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2000 compared to
$849,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 1999. The decrease in gain on
sale of loans was due to a change in the Company's policy to retain SBA 7a loans
versus selling such loans in the secondary market. The Company sold $3.2 million
in mortgage loans and $1.6 million in SBA 504 loans during the three months
ended June 30, 2000 compared to $16.9 million in mortgage loans and $14.0
million in SBA 504 and 7a loans during the three month period ended June 30,
1999.
15
<PAGE>
Prior to January 1, 2000, a major portion of other operating income was
generated through the sale of loans consisting of SBA loans and mortgage loans.
During the six months ended June 30, 2000, the Company originated $28.1 million
in SBA government guaranteed loans compared to $22.3 million during the six
months ended June 30, 1999. The Company originated $7.2 million in mortgage
loans during the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $18.5 million for
the six months ended June 30, 1999. The Company sold approximately $2.6 million
in SBA 504 loans and $6.4 million in mortgage loans during the six month period
ended June 30, 2000. This decrease reflects the change in the Company's strategy
when compared to sales of $28.7 million in SBA loans and $18.5 million in
mortgage loans sold during the six month period ended June 30, 1999. The sales
for the six month period ended June 30, 2000 resulted in a gain of $93,000,
compared to $1.7 million for the six month period ended June 30, 1999. Prior to
1999, the Company had not sold any unguaranteed portions of SBA loans. In the
future, the Company may, from time to time, sell unguaranteed portions of SBA
loans in order to manage its asset growth, capital and liquidity.
During the three months ended June 30, 2000, the Company originated $17.8
million in SBA government guaranteed loans compared to $10.3 million during the
three months ended June 30, 1999. The Company originated $3.6 million in
mortgage loans during the three months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $6.9
million for the three months ended June 30, 1999. The Company sold approximately
$1.6 million in SBA 504 loans and $3.3 million in mortgage loans during the
three month period ended June 30, 2000. This decrease reflects the change in the
Company's strategy when compared to sales of $14.0 million in SBA loans and $6.9
million in mortgage loans sold during the three month period ended June 30,
1999. The sales for the three month period ended June 30, 2000 resulted in a
gain of $46,000, compared to $849,000 for the three month period ended June 30,
1999. Prior to 1999, the Company had not sold any unguaranteed portions of SBA
loans. In the future, the Company may, from time to time, sell unguaranteed
portions of SBA loans in order to manage its asset growth, capital and
liquidity.
Other fee income totaled $452,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000
compared to $665,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999. For the three
months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 other fee income totaled $157,000 and
$362,000 respectively. The decrease in other fee income for the three month and
six month periods reflect the decrease in fees from brokering of loans which the
Company does not directly fund.
Servicing fees, net, totaled $323,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000
compared to $270,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999. For the quarter
ended June 30, 2000 servicing fees, net, totaled $163,000 compared to
$107,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1999. The increase in servicing fees
reflects the general industry trend of declining prepayment speeds on SBA
loans, which is a result of the rising interest rate environment.
Customer service charges increased to $219,000 for the six months ended June 30,
2000 compared to $178,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999. For the
quarter ended June 30, 2000 customer service charges increased to $111,000
compared to $96,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1999. This increase was due
to the expansion of the branch operations as part of the Company's strategic
plan.
OTHER OPERATING EXPENSES
Other operating expenses are non-interest types of expenses and are incurred by
the Company in its normal course of business. Salaries and employee benefits,
occupancy, telephone, premises and equipment, marketing and promotions, data
processing, professional services, director, officer and employee expenses,
office, ESOP loan and other expenses are the major categories of other operating
expenses. Other operating expenses decreased to $5.2 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2000 compared to $5.5 million for the six months ended June 30,
1999. For the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, other operating
expenses decreased to $2.6 million from $2.8 million.
16
<PAGE>
The Company's efficiency ratio, which is the ratio of recurring operating
expenses to net interest income before provision for loan losses plus
non-interest income, increased to 87.45% for the six months ended June 30, 2000
compared to 77.61% for the six months ended June 30, 1999. The increase in
efficiency ratio was due to the decrease in other operating income, and was
partially offset by the increase in net interest income and decrease in
operating expenses. Management anticipates the efficiency ratio will decline
(improve) as the net interest income increases due to the retention of SBA 7a
loans and growth in other loans. The majority of the cost decrease can be
attributed to the change of estimates of the deferred cost associated with loan
production. The effect of change of estimates was to decrease salary and benefit
expense. Salary and benefit expenses decreased to $2.6 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $3.1 million for the six months ended
June 30, 1999. The decrease in salaries and benefit expenses was partially
offset by an increase in other normal operating expenses, which were $2.6
million for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $2.4 million for the
six months ended June 30, 1999. The largest increase in other normal operating
expenses was professional services, including legal, accounting and regulatory
expenses, which increased to $352,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000,
compared to $237,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999. The increase in
professional expenses was due to additional costs of operating a holding
company, along with increased litigation expenses due to the appeal of a
lawsuit.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
SUMMARY OF CHANGES IN CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEETS
JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED TO DECEMBER 31, 1999

compared to $175.8 million as of December 31, 1999 and $155.6 million as of June
30, 1999. This increase was due to the growth in net loans to $195.7 million as
of June 30, 2000, compared to $144.2 million as of December 31, 1999, and were
$110.7 million as of June 30, 1999.

as of December 31, 1999 and were $139.9 million as of June 30, 1999. Cash and
cash equivalents increased to $20.5 million as of June 30, 2000 compared to
$15.4 million as of December 31, 1999 and were $28.7 million as of June 30,
1999. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was due to the increase in
deposits combined with the proceeds received from the Trust Preferred offering.
See "Capital."

June 30, 2000 and of December 31, 1999, and was $10.4 million as of June 30,

INVESTMENTS
The Company's investment portfolio consists primarily of certificates of deposit
with other financial institutions, agency securities and overnight investments
in the Federal Funds market. As of June 30, 2000, certificates of deposit with
other financial institutions totaled $1.3 million, compared to $800,000 as of
December 31, 1999 and June 30, 1999. At each of the periods $500,000 was pledged
as collateral for the Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") loan from another
California bank which is funding the Company's ESOP. US Government and other
securities totaled $ 6.7 million as of June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, and
were $6.4 million as of June 30, 1999. These securities are held as collateral
for public funds and treasury, tax and loan deposits. Average Federal Funds sold
for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was $12.1 million compared to $10.1
million for the six months ended June 30, 1999.
LOANS
Loan balances, net of the allowance for loan losses, increased to $195.7 million
as of June 30, 2000 compared to $144.2 million as of December 31, 1999 and
$110.7 million as of June 30, 1999. A healthy loan demand resulted in a 71.4%
annualized growth rate in total gross loans for the six months ended June 30,
2000, led by a 51.9% annualized increase in real estate commercial and
multi-family loans. This rapid increase is due to the retention of the SBA 7a
loans, as part of the Company's change in strategy, which became effective
January 1, 2000. The servicing portfolio, which consists primarily of SBA loans
sold to other investors, being serviced by the Company was $87.8 million as of
June 30, 2000 compared to $92.2 million as of December 31, 1999 and $92.0
million as of June 30, 1999.

NONACCRUAL LOANS. Nonaccrual loans are impaired loans where the original
contractual amount may not be fully collectible. The Company measures its
impaired loans by using the fair value of the collateral if the loan is
collateral-dependent and the present value of the expected future cash flows
discounted at the loan's effective interest rate if the loan is not
collateral-dependent. As of June 30, 2000, December 31, 1999 and June 30, 1999,
all impaired or nonaccrual loans were collateral-dependent. The Company places
loans on nonaccrual status that are delinquent 90 days or more or when a
reasonable doubt exists as to the collectibility of interest and principal. The
Company had seven loans on nonaccrual status as of June 30, 2000, totaling $1.8
million. Of this total $1.2 million is guaranteed by the SBA. As of December 31,
1999, the Company had eight loans on nonaccrual status, totaling $1.8 million,
with $1.4 million guaranteed by the SBA. As of June 30, 1999 the Company had six
loans on nonaccrual status, totaling $1.1 million with $166,000 guaranteed by
the SBA.
ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES. The allowance for loan losses is established through
a provision for loan losses based on management's evaluation of the risks
inherent in its loan portfolio and the general economy. The allowance is
increased by provisions charged against earnings and reduced by net loan
chargeoffs. Loans are charged off when they are deemed to be uncollectible, or
partially charged off when portions of a loan are deemed to be uncollectible.
Recoveries are generally recorded only when cash payments are received.
In determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, management
initially considers the allowances specifically allocated to individual impaired
loans, and next considers the level of general loss allowances deemed
appropriate for the balance of the portfolio based on factors including the
levels of classified assets, general portfolio trends relative to asset and
portfolio size, asset categories, potential credit concentrations, nonaccrual
loan levels, historical loss experience, risks associated with changes in
economic and business conditions, and other factors. In addition, various
regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process,
21
<PAGE>
periodically review the Company's allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may
require the Company to make additional provisions for loan losses based upon
judgments which differ from those of management.
The following table sets forth information regarding the Company's allowance for
loan losses at the dates and for the periods indicated:

</TABLE>
As of June 30, 2000 the balance in the allowance for loan losses was $1.6
million compared to $1.3 million as of June 30, 1999. As a percentage of total
loans the allowance was 0.83% as of June 30, 2000 compared to 1.15% as of June
30, 1999. As a percentage of total loans held for investment, net of the
government guarantees, the allowance was 1.02% as of June 30, 2000, compared to
1.30% as of June 30, 1999. Management believes the allowance at June 30, 2000 is
adequate based upon its ongoing analysis of the loan portfolio, historical loss
trends and other factors.
OTHER REAL ESTATE OWNED. There was no other real estate owned during the six
months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999.
CAPITAL
The Company's capital was approximately the same, totaling $11.3 million as of
June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1999. In 1997 the Company adopted an Employee
Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") which was funded with a $1.2 million line of
credit. As of June 30, 2000 the indebtedness of the ESOP in the amount of $1.0
million is shown as a deduction from shareholders' equity. In future years
capital will be increased as the unearned ESOP contributions are made by the
Company. During the three month period ended June 30, 2000, the Company repaid
principal totaling $51,000, and advanced $325,000 against the line. The Company
will be advancing an additional $130,000 during the remainder of 2000, and is
planning to contribute approximately $204,000 annually to this program.
As part of the Company's strategic plan, during the third quarter of 1998 the
Board elected to eliminate cash dividends in favor of retaining earnings to
support future growth. A 5% stock dividend was declared and paid to shareholders
of record as of November 30, 1999.
The Company's strategic plan addresses the future capital needs of the Company.
During March, 2000, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Community (CA)
Capital Trust I (the "Trust"), a
22
<PAGE>
Delaware business trust, issued $10 million of 11.0% Fixed Rate Capital Trust
Pass-through Securities ("TRUPS-Registered Trademark-"), with a liquidation
value of $1,000 per share. The securities have semi-annual interest payments,
with principal due at maturity in 2030. The Trust used the proceeds from the
sale of the trust preferred securities to purchase junior subordinated
debentures of the Company. The Company received $9.7 million from the Trust upon
issuance of the junior subordinated debentures, of which $3.2 million was used
to pay off borrowings of the Company, and $6.0 million was contributed to the
Bank to increase its capital. The $10 million is shown as other borrowings on
the books of the Company, while the net $6.5 million is in cash and cash
equivalents.
At June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, all capital ratios were above all
current Federal capital guidelines for a "well capitalized" bank. As of June 30,
2000, the Bank's regulatory total capital to risk-weighted assets ratio was
12.09% compared to 10.87% as of December 31, 1999. The Bank's regulatory tier 1
capital to risk-weighted assets ratio was 11.22% as of June 30, 2000 compared to
9.94% as of December 31, 1999. The Bank's regulatory tier 1 capital to average
assets ratio was 9.56% as of June 30, 2000 compared to 8.5% as of December 31,
1999.
As of June 30, 2000, the Company's regulatory total capital to risk-weighted
assets ratio was 9.06% compared to 8.71% as of December 31, 1999. The
Company's regulatory tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio was 8.18%
as of June 30, 2000, compared to 7.78% as of December 31, 1999. The Company's
regulatory tier 1 capital to average assets ratio was 6.82% as of June 30,
2000, compared to 6.67% as of December 31, 1999.
LIQUIDITY
The Bank closely monitors its liquidity so that the cash requirements for loans
and deposit withdrawals are met in an economical manner. Management monitors
liquidity in relation to trends of loans and deposits for short term and long
term requirements. Liquidity sources are cash, deposits with other banks,
overnight Federal Funds investments, unpledged interest bearing deposits at
other banks, investment securities and the ability to sell loans. As of June 30,
2000 liquid assets as a percentage of deposits were 11.7% compared to 12.1% as
of December 31, 1999.
