ENB BANKSHARES, INC.
Prospectus for up to 505,750 Shares of Common Stock
and $2,500,000 9.5% Convertible Subordinated Debentures
EAGLE NATIONAL BANK
Proxy Statement
This document is a prospectus of ENB Bankshares, Inc., a newly formed,
Texas business corporation and the proposed holding company for Eagle National
Bank. The holding company proposes to issue up to 505,750 shares of its common
stock to the bank shareholders as part of a reorganization of the bank as the
wholly owned subsidiary of the holding company. The holding company common stock
will not be listed on any securities exchange or quoted on NASDAQ or any over
the counter market and will trade, if at all, on a very limited basis.
This document is also a prospectus for the offering of up to $2,500,000
aggregate principal amount of the holding company's 9.5% convertible
subordinated debentures. The debentures are being offered only to those
shareholders who elect to receive all holding company common stock pursuant to
the reorganization. The debentures will mature and their principal will be
payable in five equal installments. The principal payments will begin on
December 31, 2006 and will continue on December 31 of each following year until
December 31, 2010. The debentures will bear interest at a rate of 9.5% per year,
and will be paid quarterly beginning March 15, 2001. We have the right to redeem
the debentures after December 31, 2002. We plan to use the proceeds from the
offering of debentures to finance the purchase of shares of bank stock pursuant
to a stock transfer agreement and pursuant to the reorganization. The debentures
will not be listed on any securities exchange or quoted on NASDAQ or any over-
the-counter market and will trade, if at all, on a very limited basis.

Parties to the Reorganization
ENB Bankshares, Inc.
5006 Verde Valley, Dallas, Texas 75240, telephone: (972) 980-4443 (page 73)
The holding company was organized as a Texas business corporation on May
18, 2000 for the purpose of becoming a bank holding company subject to
supervision by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System ("Federal
Reserve"). If the reorganization is consummated, the holding company will own
all of the shares of stock of the bank. The holding company has no operating
history.
Eagle National Bank
5006 Verde Valley, Dallas, Texas 75240, telephone: (972) 980-4443 (page 81)
The bank is a national banking association and currently operates banking
locations in Dallas and Highland Park, Texas. The bank engages in a full service
commercial and consumer banking business. The bank's primary service area is
located in Dallas and Collin Counties, Texas.
Park Cities Branch (pages 58 and 81)
The full service branch of the bank, located at 6829 Hillcrest, Dallas,
Texas, is being sold to the Park Cities bank, which is being organized by the
selling directors.

The Annual Meeting
Time, Place and Date of the Annual Meeting (page 54)
The annual meeting will be held at 10:00 a.m., local time, on Tuesday,
October 31, 2000 at the Bent Tree Country Club, Oak Room, 5201 Westgrove,
Dallas, Texas 75248.
Purposes of the Meeting (page 54)
At the Annual Meeting, you will be asked to consider and vote upon
. a proposal to approve the reorganization agreement and
. a proposal to elect directors of the bank.
Record Date and Shareholders Entitled to Vote (page 54)
You are entitled to vote at the annual meeting if you owned shares of bank
stock at the close of business on September 19, 2000, the record date for the
annual meeting. As of the record date, there were 574,750 shares of bank stock
entitled to be voted held by approximately 124 shareholders of record.
Vote Required (page 54)
Reorganization Proposal. Approval of the reorganization requires the
affirmative vote of the holders of 66-2/3% of the outstanding shares of bank
stock (383,186 shares). Failure to vote FOR the reorganization, either by not
returning the enclosed proxy or by checking the ABSTAIN box on the proxy, will
have the same effect as a vote AGAINST the reorganization.
Election of Directors. Directors need the affirmative vote of holders of a
plurality of the voting power present at the annual meeting to be elected.
Management Ownership (page 52)
As of September 20, 2000, the bank's directors and executive officers
owned, in the aggregate, 191,900 shares of the outstanding bank stock,
representing an aggregate of approximately 33% of the outstanding shares and
approximately 50% of the shares needed to approve the reorganization.
Voting (page 54)
You will have one vote for each share of our bank stock you owned on the
record date, but you are entitled to cumulative voting in the election of
directors.
Solicitation of Proxies (page 55)
The proxies are being solicited by the bank's board of directors. The bank
will pay all of the costs of soliciting proxies from our shareholders.
Revocation of Proxies (page 55)
You may change your vote at any time before your shares are voted at the
annual meeting by:
. giving notice of revocation to Sue Higgs, Secretary of the bank, 5006
Verde Valley, Dallas, Texas 75240;
. delivering a properly executed proxy form bearing a later date to Sue
Higgs; or
. voting in person after giving notice to Sue Higgs.
Your attendance at the annual meeting will not by itself revoke your proxy.

The Proposed Reorganization
Background of the Transaction (page 56)
When the bank was formed, three groups of investors provided the capital
for the bank. These three groups of investors (now shareholders) are represented
by Harold Campbell, Clyde Hensley and Tom Youngblood. Over time, the directors
who represent these groups began having disagreements regarding the operation
and strategic direction of the bank. In March 2000, the continuing directors and
the selling directors began discussions to divide the bank and the Park Cities
branch among the shareholder groups. The continuing directors established the
holding company to facilitate this transaction.
Stock Transfer and Branch Sale Agreement (pages 56, 57 and 58)
The transfer agreement is between the holding company, the bank and the
selling directors. It provides for:
. the selling directors to sell their 69,000 shares of bank stock to the
holding company for $15.00 per share cash;
. the opportunity for eleven shareholders identified in the transfer
agreement to become parties to the transfer agreement and sell their
shares pursuant to the transfer agreement; and
. the sale of the Park Cities branch by the bank to the Park Cities bank.
The holding company and the selling directors made this contractual
arrangement to ensure that the bank stock owned by the selling directors would
be transferred for cash. Accordingly, the selling directors are obligated to
sell their bank stock for cash and have no right to elect to receive holding
company stock pursuant to the reorganization.
Sale of Park Cities Branch (page 58)
The transfer agreement provides that the bank will sell the Park Cities
branch to the new bank being established by the selling directors. The sale of
the Park Cities branch will have a positive effect upon the bank's financial
condition and results of operations for the year ending December 31, 2000.
However, the sale of the Park Cities branch will diminish the potential for
diversity in the bank's customer base and introduce a new competitor to which
the bank expects to lose customers and business.
Description and Effect of the Reorganization (page 60)
Upon completion of the reorganization:
. Through a consolidation with an interim bank subsidiary of the holding
company, the bank will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the holding
company.
. For each share of bank stock that you own on the effective date of the
reorganization (other than shares purchased from the selling directors
and other than shares as to which dissenters' rights are perfected), you
will be able to elect to receive either
. one share of holding company common stock;
. $15.00 in cash; or
. a combination of the foregoing.
. Shareholders who elect to receive cash in the reorganization have the
contractual right to make an investment in the Park Cities bank. This
right is granted in the transfer agreement and provides that all
shareholders have the
7
<PAGE>
same opportunity as the selling directors to purchase an interest in the
Park Cities bank if they so choose. Without this contractual right, there
is no assurance that the Park Cities bank would provide the bank
shareholders the opportunity to invest in Park Cities bank at the initial
offering price.
. Shareholders who elect to receive all holding company common stock in the
reorganization will have the right to subscribe for the debentures.
Maximum Number of Shares (page 60)
While it is extremely difficult to predict with any accuracy, we estimate
that the holding company will pay cash to the holders of 165,000 shares of bank
stock (including the selling directors). The holding company plans to finance
the cash requirements of the transaction through the issuance of its debentures
and corporate borrowings. The holding company has committed to the Federal
Reserve Bank of Dallas (its primary regulator) that it will not incur
indebtedness of more than $2,500,000. This amount of indebtedness would enable
the holding company to pay cash for a maximum of 166,666 shares. If holders of
more than 166,666 shares elect to receive cash, the holding company will request
permission to increase the maximum amount of indebtedness, request that the
holders of debentures convert their debentures into stock, or seek additional
equity.
Recommendations of the Board of Directors (page 71)
The bank's board of directors has unanimously approved the reorganization,
and has determined that the terms of the reorganization are fair to, and in the
best interests of, the bank's shareholders. The bank's board of directors
unanimously recommends that you approve the reorganization agreement and the
reorganization.
Fairness Opinion (page 63)
Hoefer & Arnett, our financial advisor, has delivered their opinion to the
bank's board of directors that, as of the date of such opinion, the terms of the
stock transfer and branch sale contemplated by the reorganization agreement and
the transfer agreement are fair from a financial point of view.
Conditions to Completion of the Reorganization (page 66)
The completion of the reorganization depends upon satisfaction of a number
of conditions, including, among other things:
. approval of the reorganization agreement by the shareholders of the bank
holding not less than 66-2/3% of the outstanding shares of bank stock;
. receipt of all applicable regulatory approvals; and
. the purchase by the holding company of shares of bank stock owned by the
selling directors pursuant to the transfer agreement.
Operations of the Bank After the Reorganization (page 67)
The bank will continue to operate from its current main location. However,
pursuant to the transfer agreement, the bank will no longer own the Park Cities
branch. The seven continuing directors and all of the current executive officers
and directors of the bank will continue as executive officers and directors of
the bank. The four selling directors will resign as directors of the bank.
Borrowings by the Holding Company (page 67)
The holding company proposes to finance the cash requirements of the
transaction through a combination of the issuance of up to $2,500,000 of its
9.5% convertible debentures and a loan from Wells Fargo Bank.
8
<PAGE>
Dilution of Book Value (page 68)
If you elect to receive holding company common stock, you will experience
dilution in the book value of your shares. If the transaction had been
consummated on June 30, 2000, the amount of dilution would have been $0.80 per
share.
Termination of Reorganization Agreement
The reorganization agreement provides that it and the reorganization may be
terminated by the mutual consent of the parties, or by either party upon the
occurrence or nonoccurrence of certain events including the inability to obtain
regulatory approval.
Material Federal Income Tax Consequences (page 68)
The bank and the holding company will not recognize any gain or loss
because of the reorganization. Each shareholder who receives only holding
company common stock will not recognize any gain or loss because of the
reorganization. Each shareholder who receives only cash will recognize gain or
loss equal to the amount of cash received less his basis in bank stock
exchanged. Such gain will be capital gain to the extent the bank stock is held
as a capital asset.
Accounting Treatment (page 69)
The reorganization will be accounted for as a consolidation in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles.
Rights of Dissenting Shareholders (page 71)
If you object to the reorganization, you may exercise your right to dissent
under Section 215 of the United States Code. If you strictly comply with the
statutory requirements, you will be entitled to receive the appraised value of
your shares in cash.
Price Range of Bank Stock (page 27)
There has never been an organized or regular public trading market for the
bank stock. The bank stock is traded in private transactions.
The Offering of the Debentures (Page 99)
Issuer
ENB Bankshares, Inc.
Offerees
Only those shareholders who elect to receive all holding company common
stock in the reorganization may elect to purchase debentures.
Debentures Offered
Up to $2,500,000 principal amount of 9.5% convertible subordinated
debentures.
Price per Debenture
$1,000
Principal Due
We will pay the principal in five annual installments, each equal to 20% of
the original principal amount of the debentures, beginning on December 31, 2006
and continuing on December 31 of each following year until December 31, 2010.

<PAGE>
Interest
Annual fixed rate - 9.5%
Interest payment frequency:
. First payment: March 31, 2001
. Remaining payments on the 15th day of each following June, September,
December and March.
Ranking
The debentures are unsecured, and are subordinate in right of payment to
all of our senior indebtedness, as more fully described in "Description of
Convertible Debentures."
Conversion Rights
You may convert the debentures into the holding company's common stock at
any time, generally until December 31, 2006, at a conversion price of $15.00,
which price is subject to adjustment in certain events. This means that for each
$1,000 debenture you convert you will receive 66.67 shares of holding company
common stock.
Optional Redemption by Us
After December 31, 2002, we may redeem the Debentures at $1,000 per
debenture plus accrued interest. See "Description of Convertible Debentures."
Use of Proceeds
We will use the proceeds from the sale of the debentures and bank
borrowings, if necessary, to provide the cash needed to complete the stock
purchase transaction provided for in the transfer agreement and the
reorganization provided for in the reorganization agreement.

<PAGE>
RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider all information in this document. You should
especially consider the risk factors in the four categories set forth below.
1. Risks relating to the Reorganization
The sale of the Park Cities branch may have a harmful competitive effect on the
bank.
The selling directors, particularly Tom Youngblood, have relationships with
the bank's customers. As such, even though the Park Cities bank will operate in
a different market than the bank, the bank expects that the Park Cities bank
will compete with the bank for the deposit and loan business of some of the
bank's customers. If the bank loses a material amount of business to the Park
Cities bank, the bank's overall financial condition would suffer.
The $15.00 per share cash consideration may not reflect fair value of your bank
stock.
The transfer agreement provides for the purchase of bank stock for $15.00
per share and provides for the sale of the Park Cities branch. Neither the
holding company nor the selling directors would have agreed to the $15.00 per
share sale price without the corresponding sale of this Park Cities branch.
Because of the connection between the purchase of the bank stock and the sale of
the Park Cities branch, the $15.00 per share purchase price may not represent
the fair value of the shares of bank stock.
The Park Cities bank that will own the Park Cities branch will be a separate
bank.
If you elect to receive cash in the reorganization, you may subscribe for
shares of the Park Cities bank pursuant to its offering at the initial offering
price. The Park Cities bank is completely independent of and will have no
affiliation with the holding company and the bank. The Park Cities bank is being
established as a new bank. You must base your decision whether to invest in Park
Cities bank solely upon that bank's offering materials as there is no way to
evaluate the investment in the Park Cities bank from the information in this
document.
The transaction may need to be restructured.
If the cash requirements of the transaction are greater than $2,500,000,
the holding company will attempt to restructure the transaction. If we are
unable to restructure the transaction, the necessary regulatory approvals will
not be obtained and we will be unable to proceed with the reorganization.
2. Risks Relating to the Ownership of Holding Company Stock
You will lose your entire investment if we cannot repay the loan to Wells Fargo
Bank.
The loan from Wells Fargo Bank, if necessary, will be secured by the pledge
of 100% of the bank stock. Unless you have pledged your bank stock to secure
your personal debt, the bank stock is currently free of liens and not subject to
foreclosure. However, upon completion of the reorganization, all of the bank
stock will be subject to a lien securing the holding company's debt. If the
holding company does not or cannot repay the loan, then Wells Fargo Bank could
foreclose on the bank stock. Because the holding company will not have any other
material tangible asset other than the bank stock, the foreclosure of the bank
stock by Wells Fargo Bank would result in a complete loss to the shareholders of
the holding company.
As a result of the reorganization and the sale of the Park Cities branch, the
book value of your investment will be diluted.
The transaction will result in dilution in the tangible book value of your
investment. Book value is sometimes used by investors in banks as a benchmark
from which to determine the market value of bank stocks. Book value is not
market value. However, it provides a reference point as to the amount of equity
in the organization. Book value per share is determined by dividing the
stockholders' equity by the number of shares outstanding.
11
<PAGE>
The holding company will pay cash for shares of bank stock in the
transaction. As a result, there will be a fewer number of shares of holding
company common stock outstanding after the reorganization than the number of
shares of bank stock currently outstanding. This increases the percentage
ownership of the holding company by each shareholder who elects to receive
holding company common stock in the reorganization. However, because the amount
of cash to be paid ($15.00 per share) is greater than the book value per share
of the bank stock ($10.29 per share at June 30, 2000), the book value per share
of the holding company common stock will initially be less than the book value
per share of the bank stock.
There is no active trading market for the holding company stock.
Like the bank stock, there will be no active public market for the holding
company stock. The lack of an active public market reduces the liquidity of your
investment. This means that you may not be able to sell your shares of holding
company stock when you want. You may also not be able to sell your shares for
the price you wish to obtain.
3. Risks involved with Ownership of the Debentures.
The debentures are unsecured and subordinate to our other indebtedness.
The debentures will be unsecured and subordinate in right of payment to
senior debt. We may borrow up to $1,650,000 from Wells Fargo Bank in connection
with the transaction. We may also incur other debt in the future that will be
senior to the debentures. If we have senior debt, if we file for bankruptcy or
liquidate our business, we will be able to pay the debentures, if at all, only
after any senior lender is paid in full and then only to the extent other
unsecured creditors are paid. In addition, if the bank stock is used as
collateral for a loan (as will be the case with the loan from Wells Fargo Bank),
then upon the foreclosure of the bank stock, we will not be able to pay the
indebtedness evidenced by the debentures.
We will not set aside funds for the repayment of debentures.
We will not begin paying principal on the debentures until December 31,
2006. Because there will be no funds set aside, the repayment of the debentures
will be dependent upon the ability of the holding company and its primary asset,
the bank, to sustain profitable operations over a long period of time.
The interest rate payable on the debentures is fixed.
We will pay a fixed rate of interest on the debentures equal to 9.5% per
year. If interest rates increase, the amount of interest on the debentures would
be less than prevailing rates. In that event, holders of debentures would
receive a lesser rate of interest than they could have received in an investment
with an interest rate that would change with market interest rates. You will not
be able to increase the interest rate on the debentures even if market interest
rates increase.
There is no active trading market for the debentures.
Like the bank stock and the holding company common stock, there will be no
active public market for the debentures. As such, you may not be able to sell
the debentures in a reasonable period of time, or at all, if you have a personal
financial need for liquidity in your investment in the debentures.
4. Risks Shared by the Bank and the Holding Company
An investment in the holding company is not a insured deposit.
Like your current investment in the bank stock, your investment in the
holding company stock and the debentures are not deposits insured by the FDIC.
In the event of the bank's failure, you would lose your entire investment in the
holding company stock and the debentures.
Increases in interest rates could make us less profitable.
Our profitability is dependent to a large extent on our net interest
income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income on
interest-earning assets and
12
<PAGE>
interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities. Like most financial
institutions, we are affected by changes in general interest rate levels, which
are currently at relatively low levels, and by other economic factors beyond our
control. In addition, interest rate risks can result from mismatches between the
dollar amount of repricing or maturing assets and liabilities and is measured in
terms of the ratio of the interest rate sensitivity gap to total assets.
Although our management believes it has implemented strategies to reduce the
potential effects of changes in interest rates on our results of operations, any
substantial and prolonged increase in market interest rates could adversely
affect our operating results.
Our allowance for loan losses may prove to be insufficient.
Lending money is a substantial part of our business. However, every loan we
make carries a certain risk of nonpayment. The bank maintains an allowance for
loan losses that is our best estimate of the probable losses inherent in the
portfolio as of the balance sheet date. We cannot assure you that our allowance
for loan losses will be sufficient to absorb actual loan losses. We also cannot
assure you that we will not experience significant losses in our loan portfolios
that may require significant increases to the allowance for loan losses in the
future. Although we evaluate every loan that we make against our underwriting
criteria, we may experience losses by reasons of factors beyond our control.
Some of these factors include changes in market conditions affecting the value
of real estate and unexpected problems affecting the creditworthiness of our
borrowers.
Our future success is dependent on our ability to compete effectively in the
highly competitive banking industry.
We face substantial competition in all phases of our operations from a
variety of different competitors. Our future growth and success will depend on
our ability to compete effectively in this highly competitive environment. We
compete for loans, deposits and other financial services in our geographic
market with other commercial banks, savings and loan associations, credit
unions, finance companies, mutual funds, insurance companies, brokerage and
investment banking firms and various other nonbank competitors. Many of our
competitors offer services that we do not, and many have substantially greater
resources, name recognition and market presence that benefit them in attracting
business. In addition, larger competitors may be able to price loans and
deposits more aggressively than we do. Within Dallas County, Texas, as of June
30, 1999, the bank was 1 of 69 commercial banks and 13 savings institutions
competing for customers. At June 30, 1999, the bank held less than 1% of FDIC-
insured deposits in Dallas County and approximately 1.5% of FDIC-insured
deposits in Collin County, Texas. The nonbank financial institutions and
financial services organizations with which we compete are not subject to the
same degree of regulation as is imposed on banks. As a result, these nonbank
competitors have an advantage over us in providing certain services.
Changes in the law and regulations may affect our ability to do business, our
costs, and our profits.
We are subject to extensive state and federal supervision and regulation.
These laws and regulations are intended to protect depositors, not shareholders.
Any change in applicable laws or regulations may have a material effect on our
business and prospects. We cannot predict the nature or the extent of the effect
on our business or earnings that monetary policies, economic control, or new
federal or state regulations may have in the future. For example, we cannot
predict the full impact of the new financial services reform law, the Gramm-
Leach-Bliley Financial Services Modernization Act, signed into law on November
12, 1999, which will allow bank holding company subsidiaries and national bank
operating subsidiaries to offer a wide range of new financial services,
including securities underwriting. The new law also permits bank holding company
subsidiaries to engage in real estate development and insurance underwriting.
Federal and state governmental entities extensively regulate and supervise the
banking industry.
The bank is subject to, and will continue to be subject to, extensive
governmental supervision, regulation and control. The regulatory burden on banks
is costly and makes competition with other types of financial institutions, such
as insurance companies and brokerage houses, that are not subject to the same
regulatory burden. See "Description of the Bank--Supervision and Regulation of
the Bank" below.
13
<PAGE>
The bank is susceptible to an economic downturn in Northern Texas.
The bank is affected by economic and governmental monetary and fiscal
policies beyond its control. In particular, a downturn in the economic
conditions in northern Texas, where the bank's lending and deposit-gathering are
concentrated, could reduce our growth rate, impair our ability to collect loans.
This would have a negative effect upon the bank's financial condition and
results of operations. Financial institutions that are more geographically
diverse would have a competitive advantage over the bank in such an economic
downturn.
The charter documents of the holding company make it difficult for shareholders
to sue the holding company's directors, officers and employees on behalf of the
holding company.
You may not be able to sue the holding company's directors, officers and
employees because of limitations included in the holding company's charter
documents. The holding company's articles of incorporation and bylaws provide
for indemnification of its directors, officers, employees and agents to the
fullest extent permitted under federal and state corporate law. Indemnification
will only apply to persons who act in good faith, in a manner he reasonably
believed to be in the best interest of the company, without willful misconduct
or recklessness. The bank's bylaws provide similar indemnification provisions,
but for directors only. The holding company's articles of incorporation and
bylaws also limit the liability of directors for monetary damages to acts of
self-dealing, willful misconduct or recklessness, unless the act constitutes a
crime or involves liability for the payment of taxes. The bank's bylaws provide
similar limits on directors' liability.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS - CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS
This document contains certain forward-looking statements and information
relating to the bank that are based on the beliefs of the bank's management as

assumptions related to certain factors including, without limitation,
competitive factors, general economic conditions, customer relations, the
interest rate environment, governmental regulation and supervision,
nonperforming asset levels, loan concentrations, changes in industry practices,
one time events and other factors described herein. Based upon changing
conditions, should any one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize,

PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements are
presented for illustrative purposes only. You should not rely on the pro forma
information as being indicative of the consolidated financial position or
results of future operations of ENB Bankshares, Inc. and Subsidiaries or of the
actual results that would have been achieved had the following transactions been
consummated as of the dates indicated.
The following Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2000 and
Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations for the six months ended June
30, 2000 and the year ended December 31, 1999 are based upon the historical
consolidated financial statements of the bank and are intended to give you a
better picture of what the consolidated holding company might have looked like
had the reorganization, issuance of debt and the stock buy-out been effective on
January 1, 1999. Additional pro forma adjustments are presented to remove the
effect of the organization and operation of the Park Cities branch on the
Consolidated Statements of Operations for year ended December 31, 1999 and the
six months ended June 30, 2000 and the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30,
2000.
The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements were
prepared giving effect for the following assumptions:
. Upon consummation of the reorganization, shareholders of the bank are
given one share of holding company common stock for each share of bank
stock owned. The pro forma consolidated balance sheet of the holding
company as of June 30, 2000 reflects the stockholders equity of the
holding company which included common stock of $2,874,000 and paid-in
capital of $2,312,000 and retained earnings from the assumed inception
date on January 1, 1999 of $726,000. The amounts applied to common
stock and paid-in capital reflect a redistribution of bank equity on
January 1, 1999 from common stock of $2,874,000, paid-in capital of
$2,871,000 and retained earnings of $(559,000).
. The holding company incurs an aggregate of $2,500,000 in indebtedness
as a result of the sale and issuance of the debentures offered hereby
and borrowings from Wells Fargo Bank.
. The holding company accrues interest on the debt at a rate of 9.50%
with the first interest payment to be made on March 15, 2001. No
principal payments will be made until December 31, 2006.
. The holding company pays an aggregate of $2,500,000 in cash to acquire
an aggregate of 166,666 shares of bank stock at $15.00 per share (par
value $5.00 per share) in connection with the purchase of shares from
the selling directors and shareholders and from shareholders who elect
to receive cash pursuant to the reorganization. This would result in a
$834,000 reduction in common stock and a $1,666,000 reduction in paid-
in capital. The $2,500,000 aggregate indebtedness evidenced by the
debentures and the Wells Fargo Bank borrowings is the maximum amount
that the holding company believes that banking regulatory authorities
will permit the holding company to borrow.
. None of the debentures have been converted into shares of holding
company common stock.
. During the year ended December 31, 1999, the bank incurred a net loss
of $14,000 related to the organization and operation of the Park
Cities branch. During the six months ended June 30, 2000, the bank
incurred a net loss of $116,000 due to the organization and operation
of the Park Cities branch. As a result of these losses and all other
things being equal, the bank's retained earnings as of June 30, 2000
was $130,000 less than would have been the case had the Park Cities
branch not been established.
. Where applicable, all transactions are tax effected using an effective
tax rate of 34.0%.

The following Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2000 and
Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations for the six months ended June 30,
2000 are based upon the historical consolidated financial statements of the bank
and are intended to give you a better picture of what the consolidated company
might have looked like had the reorganization, issuance of debt and the stock
buy-out been effective on January 1, 1999 and as if the sale of the Park Cities
branch had occurred on June 30, 2000.
The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements were prepared
giving effect for the following assumptions:
. The holding company incurs an aggregate of $2,500,000 in indebtedness
as a result of the sale and issuance of the debentures offered hereby
and borrowings from Wells Fargo Bank.
. The holding company accrues interest on the debt at a rate of 9.50%
with the first interest payment to be made on March 15, 2001. No
principal payments will be made until December 31, 2006.
. The holding company pays an aggregate of $2,500,000 in cash to acquire
an aggregate of 166,666 shares of bank stock in connection with the
purchase of shares from the selling directors and from shareholders
who elect to receive cash pursuant to the reorganization. The
$2,500,000 aggregate indebtedness evidenced by the debentures and the
Wells Fargo Bank borrowings is the maximum amount that the holding
company believes that banking regulatory authorities will permit the
holding company to borrow.
. None of the debentures have been converted into shares of holding
company common stock.
. The assets and liabilities of the Park Cities branch as of June 30,
2000 were as follows:
Assets:
Cash $ 182,000
Loans, net 1,090,000
Premises and equipment 366,000
Other assets 59,000
-------------
Total Assets $ 1,697,000

Liabilities:
Noninterest-bearing deposits $ 979,000
Interest-bearing deposits 4,074,000
Other liabilities 33,000
-------------
Total liabilities $ 5,086,000
=============
. The Park Cities bank established by the selling directors pays a
purchase premium of $697,000, which includes a $500,000 premium plus
the organization expenses and the operating losses associated with the
Park Cities branch since its inception. The organization expenses
related to the branch totaled $89,000, of which $21,000 was incurred
in 1999 and $68,000 was incurred in 2000. The operating losses related
to the Park Cities branch since operations began on March 27, 2000

maintained at the Park Cities branch.
. Where applicable, all transactions are tax effected using an effective
tax rate of 34.0%.

SUMMARY OF HISTORICAL AND PRO FORMA PER SHARE SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
Set forth below are the basic earnings, diluted earnings, cash dividends
and book value per common share data for the bank on a historical basis and for
the holding company on a pro forma combined basis. Also included are weighted
average shares outstanding and shares outstanding at period end for the bank and
for the holding company on a pro forma basis. You should read the information
below together with historical financial statements and related notes and other
information included in this document. The unaudited pro forma combined data
below is for illustrative purposes only. You should not rely on this information
as being indicative of future results that the holding company will experience
after the reorganization.
The pro forma information was prepared giving effect for the following
assumptions:
Pro Forma Consolidated Holding Company
--------------------------------------
. Upon consummation of the reorganization, shareholders of the bank are
given one share of the holding company common stock for each share of
bank stock owned. The pro forma consolidated balance sheet of the
holding company as of June 30, 2000 reflects the stockholders equity
of the holding company, which included common stock of $2,874,000 and
paid-in capital of $2,312,000 and retained earnings from the assumed
inception date on January 1, 1999 through June 30, 2000 of $726,000.
The amounts applied to common stock and paid-in capital reflect a
redistribution of bank equity on January 1, 1999 from common stock of
$2,874,000, paid-in capital of $2,871,000 and retained earnings of
$(559,000).

. Includes the above assumption.
. The holding company incurs an aggregate of $2,500,000 in indebtedness
as a result of the sale and issuance of the debentures offered hereby
and borrowings from Wells Fargo Bank;
. The holding company accrues interest on the debt at a rate of 9.50%
with the first interest payment to be made on March 15, 2001. No
principal payments will be made until December 31, 2006.
. The holding company pays an aggregate of $2,500,000 in cash to acquire
an aggregate of 166,666 shares of bank stock in connection with the
purchase of shares from the selling directors and from shareholders
who elect to receive cash pursuant to the reorganization. The
$2,500,000 aggregate indebtedness evidenced by the debentures and the
Wells Fargo Bank borrowings is the maximum amount that the holding
company believes that banking regulatory authorities will permit the
holding company to borrow.
. None of the debentures have been converted into shares of the holding
company common stock.
. Where applicable, all transactions are tax effected using an effective
tax rate of 34.0%.

. The Park Cities bank established by the selling directors pays a
purchase premium of $697,000, which includes a $500,000 premium plus
the organization expenses and the operating losses associated with the
Park Cities branch since its inception. The organization expenses
related to the branch totaled $89,000, of which $21,000 was incurred
in 1999 and $68,000 was incurred in 2000. The operating losses related
to the Park Cities branch since operations began on March 27, 2000
totaled $108,000 through June 30, 2000.

PRICE RANGE OF BANK STOCK
Comparative Market Prices
There has never been an organized or regular public trading market for
the outstanding bank stock. The bank stock is traded in private transactions. As
of July 31, 2000, the highest trade price known to management for transactions
of the bank stock was for a trade of 6,000 shares at $17.00 per share on April
21, 2000. The most recent sale price as of July 31, 2000, was $15.00 per share.
The last reported sale of the bank stock prior to the public
announcement of the proposed reorganization was a trade of 500 shares at
$15.00 per share on August 15, 2000. Due to the infrequency of trading and
the fact that these trades are generally private transactions, we are unable to
determine actual trading prices on any given date.
Because there is no organized or regular public trading market for the
bank stock, bid price information for the bank stock is not available. However,
the bank does have information on sale prices. The following table shows
quarterly high and low sale prices for the bank stock:

</TABLE>
No shares of the holding company common stock will be outstanding
until consummation of the reorganization. Therefore, the holding company common
stock has not been traded and no market for it exists. We do not anticipate that
an active market for the holding company common stock will develop after the
reorganization.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION OF THE BANK'
General
The following discussion and analysis presents the more significant factors
affecting the bank's financial condition at June 30, 2000, December 31, 1999 and
1998, and results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000
and 1999 and each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999. This
discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the bank's financial
statements, notes thereto and other financial information appearing elsewhere in
this document. All references to the year ended December 31, 1997 are for the
period from February 28, 1997 (Inception) to December 31, 1997.
Analysis of Financial Condition
Assets
Total assets increased $15,024,000, or 33.2%, from $45,315,000 at December
31, 1999, to $60,339,000 at June 30, 2000. The increase was primarily due to an
increase in loans and federal funds sold funded by an overall increase in
deposits. Total assets increased only $649,000, or 1.5%, from $44,666,000 at
December 31, 1998, to $45,315,000 at December 31, 1999. Despite lack of
significant growth in total assets, the mix of total assets changed as federal
funds sold were reinvested in higher yielding loans and securities.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash and due from banks and federal funds
sold. Federal funds sold increased $9,400,000 from $1,800,000 at December 31,
1999 to $11,200,000 at June 30, 2000. The bank experienced a significant
increase in deposits during the first six months of 2000 as a result of special
promotions for certificate of deposit accounts. The excess cash provided from
these deposits was invested in federal funds sold to provide liquidity to fund
loan growth as demand warrants. Federal funds sold decreased $4,740,000 from
$6,540,000 at December 31, 1998 to $1,800,000 at December 31, 1999. The decrease
resulted as management redirected such funds to invest in higher-yielding loans
and securities.
Securities
Securities remained fairly stable totaling $868,000 at June 30, 2000
compared to $851,000 at December 31, 1999. Securities increased $595,000, from
$256,000 at December 31, 1998, to $851,000 at December 31, 1999. The increase in
1999 was primarily due to the purchase of an additional bond.
The bank's investments include obligations of U.S. government agencies and
stock holdings in the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas and the Federal Home Loan
Bank of Dallas. The bank's equity securities are classified as available for
sale while the obligations of U.S. government agencies are classified as held to
maturity. The bank held no derivative securities or structured notes during any
period presented.
The following tables summarize the amounts and the distribution of the
bank's securities held at the dates indicated:

The following tables provide the maturity distribution and weighted
average interest rates of the bank's debt securities at June 30, 2000 and
December 31, 1999. The yield has been computed by relating the forward income
stream on the securities, plus or minus the anticipated amortization of premiums
or accretion of discount, to the amortized cost of the securities. The amortized
cost of securities is their cost, adjusted for previous amortization or
accretion.

Loan Portfolio
Total net loans increased $3,016,000, or 8.1%, from $37,260,000 at December
31, 1999 to $40,276,000 at June 30, 2000. The largest increase was in interim
construction loans which increased $3,556,000, or 22.4%, from $15,896,000 at
December 31, 1999 to $19,452,000 at June 30, 2000. The increase in interim
construction loans was a result of management's effort to increase this type of
lending due to the higher yields that can be achieved. Other less significant
changes in the Bank's loan portfolio included a $1,529,000 increase in
installment loans, a $939,000 decrease in commercial loans and a $1,000,000
decrease in real estate loans.
Total net loans increased $3,542,000, or 10.5%, from $33,718,000 at
December 31, 1998, to $37,260,000 at December 31, 1999. The increase was a
result of increases in commercial loans, which increased $1,972,000, or 21.2%,
and interim construction loans, which increased $1,428,000, or 9.9%. Management
specifically targeted growth in these categories of loans due to the higher
yields that can be achieved. Changes in other categories of loans were not
significant.
The bank provides general commercial lending services for corporate and
other business clients as a part of the bank's efforts to serve the local
communities in which it operates. Certain risks are involved in granting loans,
primarily related to the borrowers' ability and willingness to repay the debt.
Before the bank extends a new loan to a
29
<PAGE>
customer, these risks are assessed through a review of the borrower's past and
current credit history, the collateral being used to secure the transaction in
case the customer does not repay the debt, the borrower's character and other
factors. Once the decision has been made to extend credit, the bank's
independent loan review function, which is currently performed by an independent
accounting and consulting firm, and responsible credit officer monitor these
factors throughout the life of the loan. Any loan identified as a problem credit
by management or during the loan review is assigned to the bank's "watch loan
list," and is subject to ongoing monitoring to ensure appropriate action is
taken when deterioration has occurred.
Commercial and industrial loans include operating lines of credit and term
loans made to small businesses primarily based on their ability to repay the
loan from the business's cash flow. Business assets such as equipment and
inventory typically secure these loans. When the borrower is not an individual,
the bank generally obtains the personal guarantee of the business owner. As
compared to consumer lending, which includes loans secured by a single-family
residence, personal installment loans and automobile loans, commercial lending
entails significant additional risks. These loans typically involve larger loan
balances and are generally dependent on the business's cash flow and, thus, may
be subject to adverse conditions in the general economy or in a specific
industry. Management reviews the borrower's cash flows when deciding whether to
grant the credit to evaluate whether estimated future cash flows will be
adequate to service principal and interest of the new obligation in addition to
existing obligations.
Commercial real estate loans are primarily secured by borrower-occupied
business real estate and are dependent on the ability of the related business to
generate adequate cash flow to service the debt. Commercial real estate loans
are generally originated with a loan-to-value ratio of 80% or less. Management
performs much the same analysis when deciding whether to grant a commercial real
estate loan as a commercial loan.
Construction loans are secured by residential and business real estate,
generally occupied by the borrower on completion. The bank's construction
lending program is established in a manner to minimize risk of this type of
lending by not making a significant amount of loans on speculative projects. The
bank does not generally make the permanent loan at the end of the construction
phase. Construction loans also are generally made in amounts of 80% or less of
the value of collateral.
Although not a significant portion of the bank's portfolio, on occasion,
the bank originates short-term residential real estate loans and home equity
lines of credit which are secured by the borrower's residence. Such loans are
made based on the borrower's ability to make repayment from employment and other
income. Management assesses the borrower's ability to repay the debt through
review of credit history and ratings, verification of employment and other
income, review of debt-to-income ratios and other measures of repayment ability.
The bank generally makes these loans in amounts of 80% or less of the value of
collateral. An appraisal is obtained from a qualified real estate appraiser for
substantially all loans secured by real estate.
Consumer installment loans to individuals include loans secured by
automobiles and other consumer assets. Consumer loans for the purchase of new
automobiles generally do not exceed 80% of the sticker price of the car. Loans
for used cars generally do not exceed average loan value as stipulated in a
recent auto industry used car price guide. Overdraft protection loans are
unsecured personal lines of credit to individuals of demonstrated good credit
character with reasonably assured sources of income and satisfactory credit
histories. Consumer loans generally involve more risk than residential mortgage
loans because of the type and nature of collateral and, in certain types of
consumer loans, the absence of collateral. Because these loans are generally
repaid from ordinary income of an individual or family unit, repayment may be
adversely affected by job loss, divorce, ill health or by general decline in
economic conditions. The bank assesses the borrower's ability to make repayment
through a review of credit history, credit ratings, debt-to-income ratios and
other measures of repayment ability.

Loan concentrations are considered to exist when there are amounts loaned
to a multiple number of borrowers engaged in similar activities that would cause
them to be similarly impacted by economic or other conditions. The bank had no
concentrations of loans at June 30, 2000, or December 31, 1999, except for those
categories of loans detailed in the above tables. The bank had no loans
outstanding to foreign countries or borrowers headquartered in foreign countries
at June 30, 2000 or December 31, 1999.
Management of the bank may renew loans at maturity when requested by a
customer whose financial strength appears to support such renewal or when such
renewal appears to be in the bank's best interest. The bank requires payment of
accrued interest in such instances and may adjust the rate of interest, require
a principal reduction or modify other terms of the loan at the time of renewal.
The following tables present the distribution of the maturity of the bank's
loans and the interest rate sensitivity of those loans, excluding installment
loans, at June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999. The tables also present the
portion of loans that have fixed interest rates or interest rates that fluctuate
over the life of the loans in accordance with changes in the interest rate
environment as represented by the prime rate.

Nonperforming Assets
Nonperforming loans consist of nonaccrual, past due and restructured loans.
A past due loan is an accruing loan that is contractually past due 90 days or
more as to principal or interest payments. Loans for which management does not
expect to collect interest in the normal course of business are placed on
nonaccrual or are restructured. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual, any
interest previously accrued but not yet collected is reversed against current
income unless, in the opinion of management, the outstanding interest remains
collectible. Thereafter, interest is included in income only to the extent of
cash received. A loan is restored to accrual status when all interest and
principal payments are current and the borrower has demonstrated to management
the ability to make payments of principal and interest as scheduled.
A "troubled debt restructuring" is a restructured loan upon which interest
accrues at a below market rate or upon which certain principal has been forgiven
so as to aid the borrower in the final repayment of the loan, with any interest
previously accrued, but not yet collected, being reversed against current
income. Interest is accrued based upon the new loan terms.
As of June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, the bank had no
nonaccrual or restructured loans. Additionally, at such dates, the bank had no
investments in repossessed real estate or other assets. Accruing loans
contractually past due over 90 days totaled $37,000 at June 30, 2000, while
there were no such loans at December 31, 1999, 1998 or 1997. The balance of
accruing loans contractually past due over 90 days at June 30, 2000 related to a
single commercial loan that was fully secured by a certificate of deposit with
the bank.
A potential problem loan is defined as a loan where information about
possible credit problems of the borrower is known, causing management to have
serious doubts as to the ability of the borrower to comply with the present loan
repayment terms and which may result in the inclusion of such loan in one of the
nonperforming asset categories. At June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, the bank
did not believe it had any potential problem loans. As a result of the a review
by the bank's external loan review service provider in July 2000, three
commercial loans totaling $1,885,000 were subsequently identified as potential
problem loans due to concerns about each of the borrowers financial stability.
At July 31, 2000, such loans were included on management's loan
classification list despite the fact that all of the loans were current.
The bank maintains an internally classified loan list that helps management
assess the overall quality of the loan portfolio and the adequacy of the
allowance. Loans classified as "special mention" are those that contain a
weakness that, if left unattended, could develop into a problem affecting the
ultimate collectibility of the loan. Loans classified as "substandard" are those
loans with clear and defined weaknesses such as highly leveraged positions,
unfavorable financial ratios, uncertain repayment sources or poor financial
condition, which may jeopardize recoverability of the loan. Loans classified as
"doubtful" are those loans that have characteristics similar to substandard
loans, but also have an increased risk that a loss may occur or at least a
portion of the loan may require a charge-off if liquidated at present. Although
loans classified as substandard do not duplicate loans classified as doubtful,
both substandard and doubtful loans may include some loans that are past due at
least 90 days, are on nonaccrual status or have been restructured. Loans
classified as "loss" are those loans that are in the process of being charged
off. There were no loans classified in these categories at June 30, 2000 or at
December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997.

Allowance for Loan Losses
Implicit in the bank's lending activities is the fact that loan losses will
be experienced and that the risk of loss will vary with the type of loan being
made and the creditworthiness of the borrower over the term of the loan. To
reflect the currently perceived risk of loss associated with the bank's loan
portfolio, additions are made to the bank's allowance for loan losses (the
"allowance"). The allowance is created by direct charges against income (the
"provision" for loan losses), and the allowance is available to absorb possible
loan losses. See "Results of Operations - Provision for Loan Losses" below.
The amount of the allowance equals the cumulative total of the provisions
made from time to time, reduced by loan charge-offs and increased by recoveries
of loans previously charged off. The bank's allowance was $519,000, or 1.27%, of
gross loans at June 30, 2000, compared to $431,000, or 1.14% of gross loans at
December 31, 1999 and $405,000, or 1.18% of gross loans, at December 31, 1998.
Credit and loan decisions are made by management and the board of directors
of the bank in conformity with loan policies established by the board of
directors of the bank. The bank's practice is to charge off any loan or portion
of a loan when the loan is determined by management to be uncollectible due to
the borrower's failure to meet repayment terms, the borrower's deteriorating or
deteriorated financial condition, the depreciation of the underlying collateral,
the loan's classification as a loss by regulatory examiners or for other
reasons. The bank charged off $2,000 in installment loans during the first six
months of 2000 and $72,000 in commercial loans, during calendar year 1999,
respectively. No other charge-offs have been experienced by the bank since its
inception in 1997.
The following tables present the provisions for loan losses, loans charged
off and recoveries on loans previously charged off, the amount of the allowance,
the average loans outstanding and certain pertinent ratios for the six months
ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, and for the last three years since inception.

Management estimates the allowance balance required, in part, by review of
the loan portfolio to evaluate potential problem loans. As discussed above
under the heading "Nonpeforming Assets," potential problem loans are classified
as special mention, substandard, doubtful and loss and are separately monitored
by management. Loan impairment is reported when full payment under the loan
terms is not expected. Loans are evaluated for impairment when payments are
delayed, typically 90 days or more, or when analysis of a borrower's operating
results and financial condition indicates the borrower's underlying cash flows
are not adequate to meet debt service requirements and it is probable that not
all principal and interest amounts will be collected according to the original
terms of the loan. Impairment is evaluated in total for smaller-balance loans
of similar nature such as residential mortgage and consumer loans and on an
individual loan basis for other loans. If a loan is impaired, a portion of the
allowance is allocated so that the loan is reported, net, at the present value
of estimated future cash flows using the loan's existing rate or at the fair
value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral.
Impaired loans, or portions thereof, are charged off when deemed uncollectible.
In addition to allocations made for specific classified loans, general
reserve allocations are made after consideration of such factors as past loan
loss experience, general prevailing economic conditions, the nature, composition
and volume of the loan portfolio, and other qualitative factors based on
management's judgment. General reserves were allocated to the various categories
of loans based on estimated percentage loss factors developed by management
after analysis of the above factors. For each of the reported periods, the
percentage loss factors were approximately 2.00% for commercial loans, 1.50% for
installment loans, 1.00% for real estate loans and 0.50% for interim
construction loans.

Premises and Equipment
Premises and equipment increased $277,000, or 11.2%, during the first six
months of 2000, from $2,479,000 at December 31, 1999 to $2,756,000 at June 30,
2000, and increased $695,000, or 39.0%, from $1,784,000 at December 31, 1998 to
$2,479,000 at December 31, 1999. The increase during the first six months of
2000 was related to leasehold improvements and additional furniture and
equipment purchased in connection with the opening of the Park Cities branch.
The increase in 1999 over 1998 was due to a $694,000 purchase of land for a
potential future branch location in Allen, Texas.
Deposits
Deposits are attracted principally from within the bank's primary market
area through the offering of a broad selection of deposit instruments, including
checking accounts, money market accounts, regular savings accounts, term
certificate accounts and individual retirement accounts. Interest rates paid,
maturity terms, service fees and withdrawal penalties for the various types of
accounts are established periodically by management based on the bank's
liquidity requirements, growth goals and interest rates paid by competitors. The
bank does not use brokers to attract deposits.
Total deposits increased $14,551,000, or 36.8%, from $39,503,000 at
December 31, 1999, to $54,054,000 at June 30, 2000. The increase in deposits was
primarily in certificates of deposit, which increased $10,739,000, or 51.8%,
from $20,748,000 at December 31, 1999 to $31,487,000 at June 30, 2000. The
increase in certificates of deposit was the result of special interest rate
promotions offered by the bank to attract such deposits. The bank also
experienced a $4,387,000, or 58.9%, increase in limited access money market
accounts as result of additional deposits received from new loan customers and
normal bank growth. Total deposits increased $188,000, or 0.48%, from
$39,315,000 at December 31, 1998, to $39,503,000 at December 31, 1999. Despite
little increase in total deposits in 1999, the bank experienced a slight shift
in the mix of the portfolio as noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased
from 18.4% of total deposits at December 31, 1998 to 25.0% of total deposits at
December 31, 1999, while certificates of
35
<PAGE>
deposit decreased from 58.6% of total deposits at December 31, 1998 to 52.5% of
total deposits at December 31, 1999. Fluctuations in other categories of
deposits were not significant.

Results of Operations
Net Income
General economic conditions, the monetary and fiscal policies of federal
agencies and the regulatory policies of agencies that regulate financial
institutions affect the operating results of the bank. Interest rates on
competing investments and general market rates of interest influence the bank's
cost of funds. Lending activities are influenced by the demand for various types
of loans, which in turn is affected by the interest rates at which such loans
are made, general economic conditions and the availability of funds for lending
activities.
36
<PAGE>
The bank's net income is primarily dependent upon its net interest income,
which is the difference between interest income generated on interest-earning
assets and interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities. Provisions
for loan losses, service charges, gains on the sale of assets and other income,
noninterest expense and income taxes also affect net income.
Net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 amounted to
$88,000 and $197,000 ($0.15 and $0.34 earnings per share) compared to net income
of $126,000 and $254,000 ($0.22 and $.44 earnings per share) for the comparable
periods in 1999. Increases in net interest income during the three and six month
periods ended June 30, 2000 were offset by increases in noninterest expense.
Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2000, income tax expense was
recognized at a higher effective tax rate as all prior net operating loss
carryforwards had been utilized.
Net income for the year ended December 31, 1999, amounted to $529,000
($0.92 basic and diluted earnings per common share) compared to net income of
$477,000 ($0.83 basic and diluted earnings per common share) for the year ended
December 31, 1998, and compared to a net loss of $568,000 ($0.99 basic and
diluted loss per common share) for the year ended December 31, 1997. Net income
for 1998 increased over 1997 due to an increase in interest income resulting
from an increased volume of loans. Net income in 1999 increased over 1998 due to
similar reasons.
Two key measures of performance within the banking industry are return on
average assets and return on average stockholders' equity. Return on average
assets ("ROA") measures net income in relation to average total assets and
indicates a company's ability to employ its resources profitably. The bank's ROA
was 0.70% and 1.15% of the first six months of 2000 and 1999 and 1.16% for 1999
compared to 1.38% for 1998 and (4.02)% for 1997.
Return on average stockholders' equity ("ROE") is determined by dividing
net income by average stockholders' equity and indicates how effectively a
company can generate net income on the capital invested by its stockholders. The
bank's ROE 6.73% and 9.67% for the first six months of 2000 and 1999 and was
9.74% for 1999, compared to 9.82% for 1998 and (13.58)% for 1997.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income is the largest component of the bank's income and is
affected by the interest rate environment and the volume and composition of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.
The general market rates of interest, including the deposit and loan rates
offered by many financial institutions, are influenced by the Federal Reserve
through adjustments to the discount rate. The discount rate is the interest rate
at which member institutions can borrow funds from the Federal Reserve if
necessary. The discount rate began 1997 at 5.00% and remained stable until the
fourth quarter of 1998 when the rate was decreased in two separate adjustments
of 25 basis points each. In 1999, the discount rate was increased by 25 basis
points in the third quarter and again in the fourth quarter to end the year at
5.00%. During 2000, the discount rate was increased 50 basis points in both
first and second quarters to end the first six months of the year at 6.00%. Over
the same period, the bank's prime interest rate, the rate offered on loans to
borrowers with strong credit, adjusted in a similar pattern. The prime rate
began 1997 at 8.50% and remained stable until the end of the third quarter of
1998 when the rate was decreased 25 basis points. The rate later decreased an
additional 50 basis points during the fourth quarter of 1998 and remained stable
until the third quarter of 1999. In 1999, the prime rate increased 50 basis
points in the third quarter and 25 basis points in the fourth quarter to end the
year at 8.50%. During 2000, the prime rate increased 50 basis points in both the
first and second quarters to end the first six months of 2000 at 9.50%.

The "gap" is the difference between the repricing of interest-earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities within certain time periods. The

As of June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, the bank was in a cumulative
positive gap position, or asset sensitive, on a one-year time horizon.
Accordingly, the bank's interest-earning assets will generally reprice more
quickly than its interest-bearing liabilities. Therefore, the bank's net
interest margin is likely to increase in periods of rising interest rates in the
market and decrease in periods of falling interest rates. Further analysis of
the bank's net interest margin is provided below. Also see discussion under the
heading "Asset and Liability Management and Quantitative and Qualitative
Disclosures About Market Risk" below.
Net interest income totaled $797,000 and $1,516,000 for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2000, increasing $239,000, or 42.8%, and $414,000, or
37.6%, from the comparable periods in 1999. The increase in 2000 was primarily
due to an increase in the average volume of loans combined with an increase in
the average yield earned on such investments compared to the prior year. The
average yield earned on loans increased from 10.08% for the first six months of
1999 to 10.84% for the first six months of 2000. Similarly, the net interest
margin, which is calculated by dividing net interest income by average interest-
earning assets, increased from 5.45% to 5.96% over the comparable six-month
periods.
Net interest income totaled $2,372,000 for 1999, increasing $488,000, or
25.9%, from 1998. Net interest income for 1998 was $1,884,000, increasing
$1,215,000, or 181.6%, from 1997. The increases over the comparable periods were
primarily due to an increase in the average volume of loans partly offset by a
decrease in the average yield earned on such investments. The average yield
earned on loans decreased from 10.94% in 1997 to 10.73% in 1998 and 10.23% in
1999. Despite the 50 basis point decrease in the yield on loans in 1999, the net
interest margin decreased only 19 basis points from 5.94% in 1998 to 5.81% in
1999. The impact on net interest income resulting from the decrease in the
average yield earned on loans was partly offset by a 45 basis point decrease in
the average rate paid on deposits. The average rate paid on deposits totaled
4.80% in 1999, 5.25% in 1998 and 5.11% in 1997. The net interest margin
increased 57 basis points from 5.37% in 1997 to 5.94% in 1998. In 1998, the bank
had a larger proportion of average interest-earning assets invested in higher
yielding loans compared to 1997. As such, the bank's average yield on interest-
earning assets increased from 8.72% in 1997 to 9.98% in 1998 despite a 20 basis
point decrease in the average yield earned on loans. The increase in the average
yield earned on interest-earning assets offset the impact of a 14 basis point
increase in the average rate paid on deposits and resulted in an increased net
interest margin for 1998.

Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses is determined by management as the amount to
be added to the allowance for loan losses after net charge-offs have been
deducted to bring the allowance to a level which, in management's best estimate,
is necessary to absorb losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The amount of the
provision is based on management's review of the loan portfolio and
consideration of such factors as historical loss experience, general prevailing
economic conditions, changes in the size and composition of the loan portfolio
and specific borrower considerations, including the ability of the borrower to
repay the loan and the estimated value of the underlying collateral.
The provision for loan losses for the three and six months ended June 30,
2000 totaled $45,000 and $90,000 compared to $10,000 and $48,000 for the
comparable periods in 1999. The provision for loan losses for the year ended
December 31, 1999, was $98,000 compared to $180,000 in 1998 and $225,000 in
1997. The bank experienced charge-offs of $2,000, which were related to
installment loans, during the first six months of 2000 and $11,000, which were
related to commercial loans, during the first six months of 1999. Total charge-
offs for 1999 were $72,000, all of which were related to commercial loans,
42
<PAGE>
while there were no charge-offs experienced in 1998 or 1997. The amount of the
provision for loan losses over the comparable six-month periods has increased to
compensate for the additional risk in the bank's loan portfolio resulting from
the growth in interim construction loans. The amount of the provision for loan
losses over the comparable annual periods has declined based on the low levels
of charge-offs experienced. At June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 and 1998, the
allowance for loan losses totaled $519,000, $431,000 and $405,000. These reserve
balances represent management's best estimate of probable losses that have been
incurred at such dates.
Noninterest Income
Total noninterest income increased $17,000, or 34.0%, and $46,000, or
52.3%, from $50,000 and $88,000 during the three and six months ended June 30,
1999 to $67,000 and $134,000 for the same periods in 2000 and increased
$107,000, or 88.4%, from $121,000 in 1998 to $228,000 in 1999. The amount for
1998 increased $84,000, or 227.0%, from $37,000 in 1997. The increases were
primarily the result of increases in services charges on deposit accounts due to
the overall growth total deposits over the comparable periods.
Noninterest Expense
Total noninterest expense increased $243,000, or 56.1%, and $400,000, or
47.1%, from $433,000 and $849,000 during the three and six months ended June 30,
1999 to $676,000 and $1,249,000 during the same periods 2000 and increased
$297,000, or 19.6%, from $1,512,000 in 1998 to $1,809,000 in 1999. Total
noninterest expense increased $463,000, or 44.1%, from $1,049,000 in 1997 to
$1,512,000 in 1998. Significant changes in the various components of noninterest
expense are discussed below. As discussed above, financial information for 1997
includes period from February 28, 1997 (Inception) through December 31, 1999.
Salaries and employee benefits totaled $232,000 and $467,000 for the three
and six months ended June 30, 1999 compared to $342,000 and $640,000 for the
same periods of 2000 and $988,000 during the year ended December 31, 1999
compared to $815,000 and $527,000 in 1998 and 1997. The increase in salaries and
employee benefits over the comparable periods is the result of the addition of
staff due to growth in the bank and normal, annual merit increases.
Occupancy expense totaled $92,000 and $171,000 for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2000 compared to $48,000 and $95,000 during the comparable
periods in 1999 and $212,000 during the year ended December 31, 1999 compared to
$195,000 in 1998 and $127,000 in 1997. The increase over the comparable six-
month periods resulted from the opening of a new branch office in the first
quarter of 2000. The increase in 1999 compared to 1998 resulted from increases
in normal costs associated with operating bank's main facility. The increase in
1998 compared to 1997 is the result of the recognition of a full year expense in
1998.
Other noninterest expense totaled $202,000 and $380,000 for the three and
six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $135,000 and $261,000 for the same
periods in 1999 and $561,000 during the year ended December 31, 1999 compared to
$455,000 in 1998 and $369,000 in 1997. Other noninterest expense includes
supplies, telephone, data processing, collection and advertising expenses, as
well as directors fees and franchise taxes, among other things. Increases in
these types of expenses over the comparable periods is consistent with the
overall growth in the bank. No single category of other noninterest expense
makes up a significant portion of the increases over the comparable periods.
Federal Income Taxes
The change in income tax expense/(benefit) is primarily attributable to the
change in income/(loss) before income taxes. The provision for income taxes
totaled $55,000 and $114,000, for effective rates of 38.5% and 36.7%, for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $39,000 and $39,000, for
effective tax rates of 23.6% and 13.3%, for the same periods in 1999. The lower
effective tax rate during the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 resulted
as the bank was able to utilize net operating loss carryforwards to reduce the
tax liability. The provision for income taxes totaled $164,000, for an effective
rate of 23.7%, in 1999 and $(164,000), for an effective rate of (52.4)%, in
1998, while no provision for income tax was recognized in 1997.

Asset and Liability Management and Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures
About Market Risk
The bank's primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk and, to a
lesser extent, liquidity risk. Interest rate risk is the risk that the bank's
financial condition will be adversely affected due to movements in interest
rates. The income of financial institutions is primarily derived from the excess
of interest earned on interest-earning assets over the interest paid on
interest- bearing liabilities. Accordingly, the bank places great importance
on monitoring and controlling interest rate risk.
There are several methods employed by the bank to monitor and control
interest rate risk. One such method is using a gap analysis. As presented and
discussed above in management's analysis of net interest income, the gap is
defined as the repricing variance between rate sensitive assets and rate
sensitive liabilities within certain periods. The repricing can occur due to
changes in rates on variable rate products as well as maturities of interest-
earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. A high ratio of interest
sensitive assets, generally referred to as a positive gap, tends to benefit net
interest income during periods of rising interest rates as the average rate
earned on interest-earning assets rises faster than the average rate paid on
interest-bearing liabilities. The opposite holds true during periods of falling
interest rates. The bank attempts to minimize the interest rate risk through
management of the gap in order to achieve consistent return. At June 30, 2000
and December 31, 1999, the bank's ratio of rate sensitive assets to rate
sensitive liabilities was 119.72% and 135.50% on a one-year time horizon. One
strategy used by the bank in gap management is to originate variable rate loans
tied to market indices. Such loans reprice on an annual, quarterly, monthly or
daily basis as the underlying market indices change. Additionally, all of the
bank's fixed-rate interim construction loans are originated with original
maturities of twelve months or less. The bank also invests excess funds in
liquid federal funds that mature and reprice on a daily basis.
In addition to the gap analysis, management measures the bank's interest
rate risk by computing estimated changes in net interest income and the "net
portfolio value" ("NPV") of its cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-
balance sheet items in the event of a range of assumed changes in market
interest rates. The bank's senior management and the Board of Directors review
the exposure to interest rates at least quarterly. Exposure to interest rate
risk is measured with the use of an interest rate sensitivity analysis to
determine the change in NPV in the event of hypothetical changes in interest
rates, while the gap analysis is used to determine the repricing characteristics
of assets and liabilities.
NPV represents the market value of portfolio equity and is equal to the
market value of assets minus the market value of liabilities, with adjustments
made for off-balance sheet items. The application of the methodology attempts to
quantify interest rate risk as the change in the NPV that would result from
theoretical 100, 200 and 300 basis point (1 basis point equals 0.01%) changes in
market interest rates. Both increases and decreases in market interest rates are
considered.
The following tables present, as of June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 and
1998, an analysis of the bank's interest rate risk as measured by changes in NPV
for instantaneous and sustained parallel shifts of 100, 200 and 300 basis points
in market interest rates.

</TABLE>
As illustrated in the above tables, the bank's NPV improves in periods
rising rates due to the bank's positive gap position. This is principally
because, as interest rates rise, the bank is able to reinvest a larger
proportion of its interest-earning assets at higher rates more quickly than it
would be forced to increase its rates paid on deposits, particularly longer-term
fixed-rate certificates of deposit. Thus, in a rising interest rate environment,
the amount of interest the bank would receive on its loans would increase
relatively quickly as variable-rate loans adjust upward and short-term fixed-
rate loans mature and new loans at higher rates are made.
Computations of prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes
are based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of market interest
rates, loan prepayments and deposit decay rates, and should not be relied upon
as indicative of actual results. Further, the computations do not contemplate
any actions the bank may undertake in response to changes in interest rates.
As with any method of measuring interest rate risk, certain shortcomings
are inherent in the NPV approach. For example, although certain assets and
liabilities may have similar maturities or periods of repricing, they may react
in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest
rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of
changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types may lag
behind changes in market rates. Further, in the event of a change in interest
rates, expected rates of prepayment on loans and early withdrawal levels from
certificates of deposit would likely deviate significantly from those assumed in
making risk calculations.

Liquidity
Liquidity is the ability of the bank to fund customers' needs for borrowing
and deposit withdrawals. The purpose of liquidity management is to assure
sufficient cash flow to meet all of the financial commitments and to capitalize
on opportunities for business expansion. This ability depends on the
institution's financial strength, asset quality and types of deposit and
investment instruments offered by the bank to its customers. The bank's
principal sources of funds are deposits, loan and securities repayments, and
other funds provided by operations. The bank also has the ability to borrow from
the Federal Home Loan bank (FHLB). While scheduled loan repayments and maturing
investments are relatively predictable, deposit flows and early loan prepayments
are more influenced by interest rates, general economic conditions and
competition. The bank maintains investments in liquid assets based upon
management's assessment of (1) need for funds, (2) expected deposit flows, (3)
yields available on short-term liquid assets and (4) objectives of the
asset/liability management program.
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $15,546,000, or 25.8% of total assets, at
June 30, 2000 compared to $4,017,000, or 8.86% of total assets, at December 31,
1999 and $8,094,000, or 18.1% of total assets, at December 31, 1998. The bank
has the ability to borrow funds from the FHLB and has various federal fund
sources from correspondent banks, should the bank need to supplement its future
liquidity needs in order to meet deposit flows, loan demand or to fund
investment opportunities. Management believes the bank's liquidity position is
strong based on its high level of cash, cash equivalents, core deposits, the
stability of its other funding sources and the support provided by its capital
base.
As summarized in the Statements of Cash Flows, the most significant
transactions which affected the bank's level of cash and cash equivalents, cash
flows and liquidity during the first six months of 2000 were the net increase in
loans of $3,106,000 and the net increase in deposits of $14,551,000. The most
significant transactions which affected
46
<PAGE>
the bank's level of cash and cash equivalents, cash flows and liquidity during
the year ended December 31, 1999 were the net increase in loans of $3,640,000,
securities purchases of $595,000 and capital expenditures of $787,000.
Capital Resources
At June 30, 2000, stockholders' equity totaled $5,912,000, or 9.8% of total
assets, compared to $5,715,000, or 12.6% of total assets, at December 31, 1999
and $5,186,000, or 11.6% of total assets, at December 31, 1998. The increases in
stockholders' equity are the result of earnings retained. Since its inception in
1997, the bank has not paid any dividends.
The bank is subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by
federal banking agencies. The bank regulators monitor capital adequacy very
closely and consider it an important factor in ensuring the safety of
depositors' accounts. As a result, bank regulators have established standard
risk based capital ratios that measure the amount of an institutions capital in
relation to the degree of risk contained in the balance sheet, as well as off-
balance sheet exposure. Federal law requires each federal banking regulatory
agency to take prompt corrective action to resolve problems of insured
depository institutions including, but not limited to, those that fall below one
or more prescribed capital ratios. According to the regulations, institutions
whose Tier 1 and total capital ratios meet or exceed 6.0% and 10.0% of risk-
weighted assets, respectively, are considered "well capitalized." Institutions
whose Tier 1 and total capital ratios meet or exceed 4.0% and 8.0% of risk-
weighted assets, respectively, are considered "adequately capitalized." Tier 1
capital is shareholders' equity excluding the unrealized gain or loss securities
classified as available for sale and intangible assets. Tier 2 capital, or total
capital, includes Tier 1 capital plus the allowance for loan losses not to
exceed 1.25% of risk weighted assets. Risk weighted assets are the bank's total
assets after such assets are assessed for risk and assigned a weighting factor
based on their inherent risk. In addition to the risk-weighted ratios, all
institutions are required to maintain Tier 1 leverage ratios of at least 5.0% to
be considered "well capitalized" and 4.0% to be considered "adequately
capitalized." The leverage ratio is defined as Tier 1 capital divided by
adjusted average assets for the most recent quarter.
The tables below set forth the bank's actual capital levels in addition to
the capital requirements under the prompt corrective action regulations as of
June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999.

As of June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 the bank met the level of capital
required to be categorized as well capitalized under prompt corrective action
regulations. Management is not aware of any conditions subsequent to June 30,
2000 and December 31, 1999 that would change the bank's capital category.
On May 31, 2000, the bank entered into the transfer agreement with the
holding company and the selling directors. The selling directors may be joined
by other shareholders who sign a counterpart of the transfer agreement.
The transfer agreement provides for the following two transactions:
. The sale of bank stock owned by the selling directors and other
shareholders who sign a counterpart of the transfer agreement to
the holding company for $15.00 per share cash. The selling
directors collectively own 69,000 shares of bank stock. The
selling directors are also aware of other shareholders of the
bank who may desire to sell their shares of bank stock to the
holding company.
. The sale by the bank of its Park Cities branch to the Park
Cities bank that has been established by the selling directors
in a purchase and assumption transaction in which the Park
Cities bank will pay a purchase premium of $500,000 plus the
organization expenses and operating losses associated with the
Park Cities branch. The bank began operations of the Park Cities
branch, a full service branch facility, on March 27, 2000.
The holding company and the bank have entered into the reorganization
agreement, whereby the bank will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the holding
company. The bank will continue to operate from its current location. However,
pursuant to the transfer agreement, the bank will no longer own the Park Cities
branch and the selling directors will no longer be directors or employees of the
bank.
The reorganization agreement provides that each shareholder of the
bank (other than the selling directors and other shareholders who have signed
the transfer agreement) may choose to receive one share of the holding company
common stock or $15.00 cash for each share of bank stock they own. The selling
directors have agreed to cause the Park Cities bank to provide bank shareholders
who elect to receive cash in the reorganization the right to subscribe for
shares of stock of the new bank that will own the Park Cities branch at the
initial offering price.
To provide the funds for the cash portion of the transaction, the
holding company is offering for sale up to $2,500,000 of 9.5% fixed-rate
debentures. The debentures are payable in five equal installments, each being
20% of the original amount of the debentures. The principal payments will begin
on December 31, 2006 and continue until December 31, 2010. The debentures are
convertible, at any time at the option of the owner until December 31, 2006,
into shares of holding company common stock at $15.00 per share. In the event
that the holding company is unable to sell enough debentures to provide the
entire cash requirements of the transaction, the holding company has obtained a
loan commitment letter from another financial institution providing for a loan
of $1,650,000. The loan is payable over 10 years and bearing interest at
floating Wall Street Journal prime rate. The loan will be secured by a security
interest in all of the bank stock owned by the holding company.
The holding company will not incur indebtedness (either in the form of
debentures or the loan) of more than $2,500,000. If the cash requirements of the
transaction are more than $2,500,000, the holding company will, first, request
permission from the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas to increase the maximum
amount of indebtedness, second, request
48
<PAGE>
that all debenture holders convert debentures into holding company stock in an
amount sufficient to enable the holding company to satisfy its debt commitment,
and third, seek additional equity from investors in a private offering. The bank
will receive a purchase premium of $500,000 from the sale of the Park Cities
branch. In addition, the bank will recoup its organization costs and operating
losses of approximately $197,000 through June 30, 2000 in the sale. This will
increase the bank's 2000 net income and its capital levels.
The reorganization agreement is subject to regulatory and shareholder
approval. Assuming the appropriate approvals are received, the bank hopes to
complete the stock transfer, the branch sale and the reorganization at the same
time in the fourth quarter of 2000.
Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
The financial statements and notes included herein have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Presently
GAAP requires the bank to measure financial position and operating results
primarily in terms of historic dollars. Changes in the relative value of money
due to inflation or recession are generally not considered. The primary effect
of inflation on the operations of the bank is reflected in increased operating
costs.
Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all of the assets and
liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result,
changes in interest rates have a more significant effect on the performance of a
financial institution than do the effects of changes in the general rate of
inflation and changes in prices. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the
same direction or in the same magnitude as the prices of goods and services.
Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors that are beyond the control
of the bank, including the influence of domestic and foreign economic conditions
and the monetary and fiscal policies of the United States government and federal
agencies, particularly the Federal Reserve. The Federal Reserve implements
national monetary policy such as seeking to curb inflation and combat recession
by its open market operations in United States government securities, control of
the discount rate applicable to borrowing by banks, and establishment of reserve
requirements against bank deposits. The actions of the Federal Reserve in these
areas influence the growth of bank loans, investments and deposits, and affect
the interest rates charged on loans and paid on deposits. The nature, timing and
impact of any future changes in federal monetary and fiscal policies on the bank
and its results of operations are not predictable.
Year 2000 Preparedness
The bank successfully completed its Year 2000 changeover without any
problems in its core business processes. The bank has confirmed normal business
operations across all products and markets on a sustained basis.
While management believes it is unlikely, problems associated with
noncompliant third parties could still occur. Management will continue to
monitor all business processes and relationships with third parties during 2000
to ensure that all processes continue to function properly.
Costs related to the bank's Year 2000 conversion project, including
equipment replacement or upgrade, vendor payments, customer communications and
education, were not significant.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Beginning January 1, 2001 a new accounting standard, Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities," will require all derivatives to be recorded at fair
value. Unless designated as hedges, changes in these fair values will be
recorded in the income statement. Fair value changes involving hedges will
generally be recorded by offsetting gains and losses on the hedge and on the
hedged item, even if the fair value of the hedged item is not otherwise
recorded. This standard is not expected to have a material effect, but the
effect will depend on derivative holdings when this standard applies.
49
<PAGE>
DIVIDEND POLICY
The Holding Company
It is the holding company's current intention to retain earnings for the
foreseeable future to support operations and finance expansion. The payment of
any future dividends will be at the discretion of the holding company's board of
directors and will depend on, among other things, the holding company's
earnings, financial condition, cash flow from operations, capital requirements,
expansion plans, the income tax laws then in effect, the requirements of Texas
corporate law and bank regulatory requirements, dividends by the bank and
restrictions that may be imposed by the holding company's current and future
financing arrangements.
The holding company's ability to pay dividends is restricted by Texas
statute and federal regulations. Article 2.38 of the Texas Business Corporation
Act provides that the holding company may not pay dividends if (1) after giving
effect to the dividend, the holding company would be insolvent, or (2) the
dividend exceeds the surplus of the holding company.
The holding company's ability to pay cash dividends on the holding company
common stock is also restricted by the requirement that it maintain a certain
level of capital in accordance with regulatory guidelines promulgated by the
Federal Reserve Board. Under the current guidelines of the Federal Reserve
Board, the holding company may not pay dividends on the holding company common
stock without the prior consent of the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas until the
holding company has achieved a debt-to-equity ratio of 1:1 or less. As of June
30, 2000, the holding company's debt-to-equity ratio on a pro forma basis, after
the debt issuance, share buy-out and sale of the Park Cities branch calculated
in accordance with Federal Reserve Board guidelines, would have been
approximately 0.67:1 just after consummation of the reorganization. The holding
company does not anticipate paying dividends on the holding company common stock
until its long-term debt incurred in the reorganization has been significantly
reduced.
Finally, and most importantly, the holding company's principal source of
revenue is dividends from the bank. The holding company's ability to satisfy its
obligations and pay dividends is dependent upon the bank's ability to pay
dividends to the holding company.
The Bank
The ability of the bank to pay dividends is restricted (i) by the
requirement that it maintain an adequate level of capital in accordance with
regulatory guidelines, and (ii) by statute. Federal regulatory authorities have
adopted capital guidelines that require capital based upon a percentage of an
asset's face value, depending upon the perceived credit risk associated with
categories of assets. Further, the regulations provide for a two tier concept of
capital, with "Tier 1" capital consisting primarily of common shareholders'
equity and "Tier 2" capital consisting of a percentage of the allowance for loan
losses, hybrid capital investments and mandatory convertible debt securities,
and term subordinated debt and intermediate term preferred stock. The capital
adequacy standards require a minimum total capital (Tier 1 capital plus Tier 2
capital) to risk weighted assets ratio of 8.0%. At June 30, 2000, the bank's
total capital to risk weighted assets was 13.70%, calculated in accordance with
regulatory guidelines.
In addition to "risk-based" minimum capital requirements, the federal
regulations include minimum capital requirements related strictly to "Tier 1"
capital. The regulations reflect the position of banking regulatory authorities
that every institution, regardless of how credit risk-free it may be, must
maintain an absolute minimum level of equity. The minimum level of "Tier 1"
capital required by the regulations for banks in exceptional financial condition
is 3%. Banks not meeting the specific requirements in the regulations relating
to their condition must maintain higher levels of "Tier 1" capital. At June 30,
2000, the bank's Tier 1 capital "leverage" ratio was 9.90%, calculated in
accordance with regulatory guidelines.
Certain statutory provisions also restrict the payment of dividends. One
federal statute provides that prior to declaring a dividend, a bank must
transfer to its surplus account an amount equal to or greater than 10% of the
net profits earned by the bank since its last dividend was declared, unless such
transfer would increase the surplus of the bank to an amount greater than the
bank's stated capital. Also, federal banking laws provide that the approval of
the OCC is required for any dividend if the total of all
50
<PAGE>
dividends, including the proposed dividend, declared by the bank in any calendar
year exceeds the total of its net profits for such year combined with its
retained net profits for the preceding two years, less any required transfers to
surplus. Further, federal law prohibits the payment of a dividend in an amount
greater than a bank's undivided profits then on hand and, if accumulated losses
exceed the bank's accumulated profits, then no dividend may be paid.
The bank is not currently prohibited by such statutes and regulations from
paying dividends. However, there can be no assurance that the bank will be able
to pay dividends to the holding company in the future. If the bank is prohibited
from paying dividends to the holding company in the future, the holding company
will not be able satisfy its financial obligations or to pay dividends on the
holding company common stock.
CAPITALIZATION
The following table sets forth the bank's historical and the holding
company's long-term debt and capitalization:
. as if the holding company existed on June 30, 2000 and the stock
transfer and branch sale and reorganization was completed as of
June 30, 2000;
. as adjusted to give effect to the reorganization and the stock
transfer and branch sale transaction, assuming that the holding
company pays an aggregate of $2,500,000 for 166,666 shares of bank
stock and the holding company receives $500,000 in purchase premium
and an aggregate of approximately $197,000 through June 30, 2000 to
reimburse it for organization costs and operating losses;
. as adjusted to give effect to the borrowing of $2,500,000 through a
combination of sale and issuance of the debentures and borrowings from
Wells Fargo Bank; and
. where applicable, all transactions are tax affected using an effective
tax rate of 34.0%.

The required vote for approval of the reorganization is the affirmative
vote of at least 66 2/3 of the outstanding shares of bank stock. On the record
date, there were 574,250 shares of bank stock outstanding. Accordingly, the
affirmative vote of at least 383,186 shares is necessary to approve the
reorganization.
The seven continuing directors collectively own 122,900 shares. These
individuals have verbally indicated that they intend to vote these shares in
favor of the reorganization. Although these statements are not binding, we
believe that these individuals will vote their shares in favor of the
reorganization. The four selling directors collectively own 69,000 shares. As
part of the transfer agreement, they have granted to Robert H. Lutz, a
continuing director of the bank and a director of the holding company, their
proxy to vote their shares in favor of the reorganization. Accordingly, we
believe that an aggregate 191,900 shares held by the continuing and selling
directors will be voted in favor of the reorganization.

. to consider and act upon a proposal to fix the number of directors
to be elected at eleven and to elect eleven directors of the bank
to hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders or
until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified;
and
. to transact any other business that may properly come before the
annual meeting and any adjournment(s) of the meeting.
Voting Rights
The board of directors of the bank has fixed September 19, 2000, as the
record date for the determination of shareholders of the bank entitled to vote
at the annual meeting. Only holders of record of the outstanding shares of bank
stock at the close of business on the record date are entitled to notice of, and
to vote at, the annual meeting or any adjournment(s) of the annual meeting. On
the record date, the bank had outstanding 574,750 shares of bank stock, the only
authorized class of stock. At such date, the bank stock was held by
approximately 124 shareholders. Each outstanding share of bank stock entitles
the record holder to one vote. Shareholders are also entitled to cumulative
voting in the election of directors. Under cumulative voting, each shareholder
is entitled to an aggregate number of votes equal to the number of directors to
be elected multiplied by the number of shares the shareholder owns. You may
divide this aggregate number votes among the nominees for election of directors
as you choose.
Quorum
Under federal law and the bylaws of the bank, the presence of a quorum
is required for each matter to be acted upon at the annual meeting. Holders of a
majority interest of all outstanding bank stock must be present at the meeting,
either in person or by proxy, to establish a quorum. For purposes of
establishing a quorum, the bank will count as present shareholders represented
by proxies marked "withhold" or "abstain." "Broker nonvotes" will also be
counted in determining the presence of a quorum for the particular matter.
"Broker nonvotes" are shares represented at the meeting held by brokers or
nominees as to which instructions have not been received from the beneficial
owners or persons entitled to vote and the broker or nominee does not have the
discretionary voting power on a particular matter. In the absence of a quorum,
the board of directors of the bank intends to adjourn the meeting to another
place and time without further notice to shareholders, until the necessary
shareholders are present. Those shareholders who fail to return a proxy or
attend the annual meeting in person will not count towards determining a quorum.
Vote Required
The required vote for the approval of the reorganization is the
affirmative vote of at least 66-2/3% of the outstanding shares of bank stock.
Abstentions and broker nonvotes are not votes cast and therefore do not count
either for or against the approval and adoption of matters before the meeting.
Although abstentions and broker nonvotes are not votes cast, they have the
practical effect of votes cast AGAINST the reorganization proposal.
In the election of directors, directors must receive a plurality of the
bank stock present and voting in person or by proxy, provided a quorum exists. A
plurality means receiving the largest number of votes, regardless of whether
that is a majority. All matters other than the reorganization and the election
of directors submitted to you at the annual meeting will be decided by a
majority of the votes cast on the matter, provided a quorum exists, except as
otherwise provided by law or our articles of association or bylaws. Those who
fail to return a proxy or attend the annual meeting in person will not count
towards determining any required plurality or majority.
54
<PAGE>
Adjournment
If for any reason the Board of Directors of the bank believes
additional time should be allowed to obtain proxies, the Board may adjourn the
meeting to another place and time with a vote of a majority of shares present at
the meeting.
Solicitation of Proxies
The bank's Board of Directors is sending this proxy statement and the
enclosed proxy form to shareholders of the bank on or about September 29, 2000.
In addition to the solicitation of proxies by use of the mail, officers,
directors and regular employees of the bank may solicit the return of proxies by
personal interview, mail, telephone, facsimile and/or through the Internet.
These persons will not be additionally compensated, but will be reimbursed for
out-of-pocket expenses. The bank will also request brokerage houses and other
custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to forward solicitation material to the
beneficial owners of shares. The bank encourages the personal attendance of its
shareholders at the annual meeting. An execution of the accompanying proxy will
not affect a shareholder's right to attend the annual meeting and to vote in
person.
In connection with the solicitation of proxies, the bank will:
. bear the cost of soliciting proxies; and
. reimburse brokerage firms and other custodians, nominees and
fiduciaries for their reasonable expenses in soliciting proxies;
Voting by Proxy
By properly completing and signing a proxy and returning it to the bank
prior to the annual meeting, you will be appointing the proxy holders to vote
your shares at the annual meeting according to your instructions on the proxy.
If a proxy is completed, signed and returned without indicating any voting
instructions, the shares represented by the proxy will be voted:
. FOR the approval and adoption of the reorganization agreement, and
. FOR approval of the proposal to set the number of directors at
eleven and to elect the eleven nominees for director set forth in
this proxy statement/prospectus.
The proxy holders will not vote any proxy that withholds authority. A
proxy also gives the persons named as proxy holders the right to vote on other
matters incidental to the conduct of the annual meeting. If other matters are
properly brought before the meeting, the proxy holders will vote your proxy in
accordance with the discretion of the proxies.
Revocation of Proxies
Execution and return of the enclosed proxy will not affect your right
to attend the annual meeting and vote in person if you first give notice to Sue
Higgs, Secretary of the bank. A shareholder of the bank who returns a proxy may
revoke the proxy prior to the time it is voted:
. by giving written notice of revocation dated at any time before
the proxy is voted to Sue Higgs, Secretary of Eagle National Bank,
5006 Verde Valley, Dallas, Texas 75240;
. by delivering a properly executed proxy bearing a later date to
Sue Higgs, Secretary of the bank; or
. by attending the annual meeting and voting in person after giving
notice to Sue Higgs, Secretary of the bank.
55
<PAGE>
Attendance by a shareholder at the annual meeting will not itself
revoke the proxy. A revocation letter or later-dated proxy will not be effective
until received by Sue Higgs, Secretary of the bank, at or prior to the annual
meeting.
PROPOSAL 1:
THE PROPOSED REORGANIZATION
Description of Reorganization Proposal
We are asking that you approve the reorganization agreement that would
result in the reorganization of the bank as a subsidiary of the holding company.
Background
The board of directors of the bank has been considering a number of
alternatives regarding the strategic direction of the bank for some time. The
stock transfer transaction and the reorganization are a result of decisions made
during this process.
Since its inception in 1997, the shareholders of the bank have been
segregated into three distinct groups. One group is represented by Harold
Campbell, the Chairman of the Board, another group is represented by Clyde
Hensley, the Vice Chairman of the Board, and the third group is represented by
Tom Youngblood, the former President of the Bank. In the bank's initial years of
operation, these three groups worked together to cause the bank to become
profitable.
After the bank achieved profitability, however, the three groups began
expressing differences of opinion regarding several strategic initiatives. These
differences arose over principally
. expansion plans;
. day to day management styles and objectives; and
. long term investment desires.
During 1998 and early 1999 the three groups attempted to resolve their
differences. During this time, the bank continued with efforts to expand into
the Park Cities area of Dallas by preparing to open the Park Cities branch. The
Board also considered the possibility of forming a bank holding company to own
the bank. The bank began taking preliminary steps toward the formation of a bank
holding company in late 1999.
In early 2000, the bank began receiving unsolicited offers to acquire
100% of the stock of the bank. The bank board held informal conversations with
interested purchasers in January and February regarding a potential transaction.
However, the board ultimately decided not to proceed further with these
inquiries primarily because the board concluded the proposed consideration was
determined to be inadequate for a change of control transaction.
During these discussions, it became apparent that the directors had
different opinions regarding the strategic plan for the bank. As a result, in
early March 2000 the selling directors and the remaining directors began
discussing the possibility of splitting the bank into two entities, with the
remaining directors keeping the bank at its north Dallas office and the selling
directors selling their shares of bank stock and forming the Park Cities bank to
own the Park Cities branch.
In late March, the Board approved the concept of the transaction,
authorizing the execution of a letter of intent, and authorizing Harold Campbell
to negotiate the terms of a definitive agreement on behalf of the bank.
On April 3, 2000, the bank entered into a letter of intent with the
selling directors. The letter of intent provided, among other things, that:
. the selling directors would sell their stock for $15.00 per share;
56
<PAGE>
. the bank would sell the Park Cities branch to a new bank
established by the selling directors for a purchase premium of
$500,000 plus organization expenses and operating losses; and
. Tom Youngblood would resign as President of the bank effective as
of April 1, 2000, but would remain the employee primarily
responsible for the Park Cities branch.
During April and May 2000, the bank and the selling directors
negotiated the terms of the transfer agreement. Meetings between Harold Campbell
and Tom Youngblood and the selling directors were held on various dates during
this period. On April 26, 2000, Harold Campbell and Tom Youngblood held a
meeting with separate legal counsel representing the bank and the selling
directors to negotiate the agreement. Harold Campbell, Bobby H. Lutz, Chris
Griffith and Patrick Adams met with the bank's legal counsel on May 17, 2000, to
discuss the agreement. Harold Campbell met individually with the other remaining
directors during late May, 2000 to discuss the agreement.
By Unanimous Consent dated effective as of May 31, 2000, the Board of
Directors approved the transfer agreement and authorized Harold Campbell to
execute the agreement on behalf of the bank. The transfer agreement was signed
effective as of May 31, 2000.
During the negotiations, all of the directors recognized that
shareholders will have personal preferences regarding whether they would like to
keep their investment in the bank or join the selling directors in starting the
Park Cities bank. The primary purpose of the reorganization is to give you this
choice. As discussed below, you may elect to receive holding company common
stock or cash for your bank stock. You must make this election prior to or at
the special meeting. If you elect to receive cash, the selling directors have
agreed in the transfer agreement to cause the Park Cities bank to provide you
with the right to purchase shares of stock of the Park Cities bank.
The Park Cities bank (In Organization) began soliciting investors for
its stock through its Offering Circular dated July 17, 2000. The terms of the
offering and a description of the Park Cities bank, its management and its
stock, are set forth in the Offering Circular. You will receive an Offering
Circular together with instructions for investing in the Park Cities bank if you
elect to receive cash in the reorganization.
Purchase of Stock from Selling Directors
Pursuant to the transfer agreement, the holding company will purchase
the 69,000 shares of bank stock owned by the selling directors at a per share
price of $15.00. The transfer agreement includes a list of shareholders who the
selling directors believe may also desire to sell their shares of bank stock to
the holding company (the "selling shareholders"). These shareholders
collectively own 68,700 shares of bank stock. The transfer agreement provides
that the selling directors may contact the selling shareholders to determine if
they in fact desire to sell their shares of bank stock pursuant to the transfer
agreement. As of the date of this document, none of the shareholders who were
listed in the transfer agreement have agreed to sell their shares of bank stock
pursuant to the Stock Transfer and Branch Sale Agreement.
The purchase price for the selling shareholder shares is also $15.00
per share. The purchase price under the transfer agreement may be increased if
the sale of the branch by the bank to the new bank is consummated prior to
consummation of the stock transfer. In such event, then the purchase price will
be increased by a daily interest rate equal to Wall Street Journal prime rate
for the number of days between the closing of the branch sale and the closing of
the stock transfer. The purchase price is payable in cash at closing of the
stock transfer.
The transfer agreement also provides that Tom Youngblood will cancel
his option to purchase 7,500 shares of bank stock. In February, 1997, the bank
granted to Mr. Youngblood an option to purchase 7,500 shares of bank stock at
$10.00 per share. In consideration of his cancellation of the option, the
holding company will pay him $5.00 per share for each share subject to the
option, reflecting the difference between the $15.00 per share price to be paid
to the selling directors and the selling shareholders and the per share exercise
price of the option. Such payment is to be made in cash at the closing of the
stock transfer.
57
<PAGE>
Sale of Park Cities Branch
Pursuant to the transfer agreement, the bank will sell the Park Cities
branch to the Park Cities bank, the new bank being established by the selling
directors. The branch sale is part of the split up of the board of directors.
The bank would not sell the branch without the corresponding purchase of stock
from the selling directors. The bank recognizes that by selling the branch, it
is giving up a location in a separate market. Further, the bank recognizes that
the selling directors have relationships with some of the bank's customers and
that the Park Cities bank will compete with the bank for these customers.
Nevertheless, the bank believes that the sale of the Park Cities branch, when
taken in context with the purchase of stock from the selling directors, is in
the best interests of the bank.
The transfer agreement also provides for the sale of the Park Cities
branch by the bank to the selling director's new bank. The Park Cities branch
will be sold pursuant to a purchase and assumption transaction where the new
bank will purchase the assets of the Park Cities branch (loans, leasehold
improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment, the branch name, etc.) and
assume the liabilities of the Park Cities branch (primarily deposits and the
branch facility lease). The new bank will pay book value for the assets such as
loans, leasehold improvements, and furniture fixtures and equipment. The new
bank will also pay a purchase premium for the deposits equal to
. $500,000; plus
----
. $2.50 multiplied by the difference between (a) 110,000 less (b)
the number of shares of bank stock delivered by the selling
directors and selling shareholders for sale pursuant to the
transfer agreement; plus
. the organization costs of the Park Cities branch ($89,571.96);
plus
. the net loss, if any, arising from the operation of the Park
Cities branch from the date it opened (March 27, 2000) to the
closing of the branch sale.
The closing of the branch sale will be within thirty days after receipt
of regulatory approvals for the new bank to open for business and acquire the
Park Cities branch. The transfer agreement provides for the sale of the Park
Cities bank prior to the effective date of the reorganization.
The sale of the Park Cities branch will have a positive effect upon the
bank's financial condition and results of operations for the year ending
December 31, 2000. The Park Cities branch is a new branch that opened for
business on March 27, 2000. As such, the Park Cities branch has a relatively
small amount of assets (approximately $4,300,000 at June 30, 2000) which
constitute less than 10% of the bank's total assets. Further, the Park Cities
branch has incurred operational losses of approximately $108,000 through June
30, 2000. The bank will recoup the organization expenses and the operational
losses as well as receive a purchase premium of $500,000 in the branch sale.
This will increase the bank's pre-tax net income by at least $697,000 for 2000.
The increased net income will increase the bank's capital level as well. Given
the relatively small amount of assets being transferred, the branch sale will
not have a material effect upon the bank's liquidity.
The sale of the Park Cities branch will divest the bank of a separate
location in a different market area. This sale will diminish the potential for
diversity in the bank's customer base that the bank was attempting to achieve
when it established the branch. The new Park Cities bank will be a new
competitor in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. However, the Park Cities bank will be
located in a different market from the bank and, as such, will not be in direct
competition with the bank. The bank does expect that, given that the selling
directors (in particular former President Tom Youngblood) have relationships
with the bank's customers, the bank will lose some of its customers to the new
Park Cities bank.
Holding Company Formation
In proceeding with the transfer agreement, the board of directors of
the bank required that these transactions be fair to the shareholders of the
bank. To that end, the transfer agreement provides
58
<PAGE>
. the holding company will acquire the bank in a corporate
reorganization that provides shareholders with a choice of
receiving holding company stock or $15.00 per share cash for their
shares of bank stock;
. shareholders who elect to receive cash in the reorganization have
the right to purchase shares of the new bank that will own the
Park Cities branch at the initial offering price of the new bank
stock; and
. the bank will obtain a fairness opinion from an independent bank
valuation firm that the transactions are fair to the shareholders
of the bank from a financial point of view.
Reasons for the Formation of the Holding Company
A bank holding company is an entity that controls a bank through
ownership or other control of the voting stock of such bank. As a result of the
reorganization and the transfer agreement, the holding company will own 100% of
the issued and outstanding shares of the bank.
The reasons for the establishment of the holding company to own the
bank include the following:
. The holding company provides a vehicle to complete the
transactions contemplated by the transfer agreement.
. As part of its strategic planning, the bank is considering
expansion of its geographic markets through the acquisition of, or
merger with, other banks. The holding company can be an effective
vehicle in financing such acquisitions and in maintaining the
independent franchise value of an acquired institution. The
holding company has no specific plans to acquire any particular
financial institution at this time.
. By offering the opportunity for shareholders to elect to receive
cash for their shares of bank stock as part of the reorganization,
the formation of the holding company provides an immediate source
of liquidity to those shareholders who want or need to liquidate
their investment in the bank at this time.
. A bank is restricted by regulation from purchasing its own stock,
while a bank holding company is generally subject to less
regulatory restrictions. Because the holding company could create
a market for and is permitted to purchase its own stock, holders
of the holding company bank stock will have an additional
prospective purchaser of such stock. The formation of the holding
company should provide a continuing, though limited, source of
liquidity for shareholders.
. Subject to the holding company's financial condition, purchases of
newly issued bank stock or direct capital contributions by the
holding company can be used to provide future injections of
capital into the bank when and if needed. If the holding company
were not formed and the bank sought additional capital injections
through the issuance of additional shares of bank stock,
shareholders desiring to avoid dilution of their percentage
ownership of the bank would be required to purchase additional
shares of bank stock with their personal funds. With the bank
wholly owned by the holding company, such future injections of
capital could be made by the holding company through borrowing
without change in the percentage ownership of the shareholders of
the holding company. The holding company's ability to obtain the
necessary funds through borrowing instead of through the issuance
of stock would be subject, of course, to regulatory restrictions
and financial considerations.
Description and Effects of the Reorganization
As a step toward establishing a holding company for the bank, the board
of directors of the bank incorporated the holding company on May 18, 2000, to
serve as the bank holding company. The holding company has taken no actions
except those aimed at
59
<PAGE>
consummating the reorganization and achieving bank holding company status. No
shares of holding company bank stock have as yet been issued and the holding
company is being managed by its initial directors, Harold Campbell, Bobby Lutz
and Patrick Adams. The holding company has not engaged nor will it engage in any
business other than taking such actions as necessary to effect the transactions
described in this document.
The establishment of the holding company as a bank holding company is
to be accomplished by the reorganization pursuant to the terms of the
reorganization agreement, a copy of which is attached as Annex A. The bank will
-------
be the resulting bank from the reorganization and will be wholly owned by the
holding company. Upon consummation of the reorganization, the bank will continue
to possess all of its property, rights, and interests and will be liable for all
of its liabilities and obligations. The bank will continue its banking business
at the same location with the same management as immediately prior to the
effective date of the reorganization. However, as a result of the transfer
agreement, the bank will no longer own the Park Cities branch and Randy Pack,
Jon Roy Reid, John Yeaman and Tom Youngblood will no longer be directors or
employees of the bank.
Conversion and Exchange of Shares
The reorganization agreement provides that the shareholders (other than
the selling directors and shareholders who sell their shares to the holding
company pursuant to the transfer agreement) will be entitled to receive, for
each share of bank stock they own on the effective date of the reorganization,
at their option,
. one share of holding company common stock;
. $15.00 cash; or
. A combination of the foregoing.
As noted above, shareholders who elect to receive cash in the reorganization
have been granted the right by the new bank to subscribe for shares of the new
bank that will own the Park Cities branch. The transfer agreement provides that
such shareholders may subscribe for shares of the new bank at the initial
offering price until the earlier of
. 30 days after the effective date of the reorganization; or
. December 31, 2000.
Shareholders may elect to receive holding company stock for part of their shares
of bank stock and cash for part of their shares of bank stock.
Shareholders must make their election in writing in the form
transmitted with this document. The election form must be returned to the
holding company at or prior to the shareholders' meeting. If you do not return a
completed and signed election form by that date, you will be deemed to have
elected to receive all holding company common stock.
The directors of the bank who are not selling their shares pursuant to
the transfer agreement are:
Patrick G. Adams
Donald A. Bailey
Harold L. Campbell
Christopher G. Griffith
Clyde W. Hensley
Bobby Lutz
Ronald W. Rhoades
These directors beneficially own an aggregate of 122,900 shares of bank stock,
constituting approximately 21% of the shares of the outstanding bank stock. All
of these directors have indicated that they will elect to receive shares of
holding company stock for their shares of bank stock. In addition, the selling
directors have granted a proxy to Bobby Lutz to vote their 69,000 shares in
favor of the reorganization. The 191,900 shares owned by these persons
represents approximately 50% of the 383,186 shares necessary to approve the
reorganization.
We have committed to banking regulators that we will not incur
indebtedness (either in the form of the debentures or the loan from Wells Fargo
Bank) greater than $2,500,000. This means that the maximum number of shares of
the bank stock for which the holding
60
<PAGE>
company could pay cash for is 166,667 shares. As mentioned above, the holding
company will purchase 69,000 shares for cash from the selling directors. This
leaves 97,667 shares that the holding company may acquire for cash from other
shareholders pursuant to the reorganization. If bank shareholders owning more
than 97,667 shares elect to receive cash in the reorganization, the holding
company will
. first, request permission from the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas
to increase the maximum amount of indebtedness,
. second, request that all debenture holders convert debentures into
holding company stock in an amount sufficient to enable the
holding company to satisfy its debt commitment, and
. third, seek additional equity from investors in a private
offering.
If none of these alternatives are successful, the holding company will
not be able to satisfy its regulatory commitment and will not be able to proceed
to consummate the transaction.
At consummation of the reorganization, the 1,000 shares of bank stock
of the interim bank outstanding and held by the holding company will be
converted into and become 574,750 shares of the bank as the bank is the entity
surviving the reorganization. The shares of bank stock issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the reorganization and held by shareholders of the bank
other than the holding company will represent, after the reorganization, the
right to receive the consideration described above.
The following table indicates the aggregate amount of consideration to
be received by the continuing directors as a group, the selling directors who
sell pursuant to the transfer agreement as a group, and all other shareholders
as a group assuming that all shareholders other than the selling directors elect
to receive holding company stock for their shares of bank stock.

As indicated above, all of the continuing directors of the bank have
indicated that they intend to elect to receive shares of holding company stock
pursuant to the reorganization. The continuing directors of the bank will not
receive any additional consideration pursuant to the reorganization other than
the consideration to which they are entitled to receive by virtue of their
position as shareholders of the bank.
After the effective date of the reorganization, each outstanding
certificate (except those held by any shareholders exercising dissenters'
rights), which prior to the effective date represented shares of bank stock,
shall be deemed for all purposes to evidence solely the right to exchange those
certificates for the consideration described in the reorganization agreement. As
soon as practicable after the consummation of the reorganization, transmittal
forms will be sent to the former shareholders of the bank for use in
surrendering their bank stock certificates.
Fairness Opinion
The board of directors of the bank believes that the terms of the
reorganization are fair and reasonable. To support this position, The bank's
board of directors retained Hoefer & Arnett to render a written opinion (the
"Fairness Opinion") as investment bankers as to the fairness, from a financial
point of view, to the board of directors and shareholders of the bank of the
$15.00 per share cash purchase price to be paid by the holding company for less
than 30% of the outstanding common stock of the bank. In addition, the board of
directors of the bank has requested Hoefer & Arnett's opinion as investment
bankers as to the fairness, from a financial point of view, to all of the
shareholders of the bank of the proposed transfer of the Park Cities Branch to
certain shareholders of the bank for $500,000 plus certain other adjustments as
described in detail in the transfer agreement. No limitations were imposed by
the bank's board of directors upon Hoefer & Arnett with respect to the
investigations made or procedures followed in rendering the Fairness Opinion.
A copy of the Fairness Opinion of Hoefer & Arnett, dated as of
September 29, 2000, which sets forth certain assumptions made, matters
considered and limits on the review undertaken by Hoefer & Arnett, is attached
as Annex C to this document. The bank shareholders are urged to read the
Fairness Opinion in its entirety. Hoefer & Arnett's Fairness Opinion is directed
only to the financial terms of the transaction and does not constitute a
recommendation to any bank shareholder as to how such shareholder should vote at
the annual meeting.
62
<PAGE>
The board of directors of the bank has specifically adopted the
conclusions of the fairness opinion. If Hoefer & Arnett withdraws its fairness
opinion, the board of directors will discuss the reasons for withdrawal with
Hoefer & Arnett and consult with other financial advisors regarding the fairness
of the transaction. If the bank is ultimately unable to obtain a fairness
opinion, it may terminate the transfer agreement and not proceed with the
reorganization.
The following disclosure includes, all procedures followed, findings
and recommendations, the bases for the methods of arriving at such findings and
recommendations, all principal materials reviewed, instructions received from
the bank or holding company or their affiliates and any limitation imposed by
any of the foregoing on the scope of the investigation.
In arriving at its opinion, Hoefer & Arnett reviewed and analyzed,
among other things, the following:
. the transfer agreement;
. Audited financial statements for the bank as of December 31, 1998
and December 31, 1999;
. Quarterly FDIC Call reports for the bank for the quarters ended
June 30, 2000, December 31, 1999, September 30, 1999, June 30,
1999, March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998;
. certain other publicly available financial and other information
concerning the bank;
. publicly available information concerning other banks and holding
companies, the trading markets for their securities and the nature
and terms of certain other transactions that Hoefer & Arnett
believed to be relevant to its inquiry; and
. Hoefer & Arnett held discussions with senior management of the
bank concerning their past and current operations, financial
condition and prospects, as well as the results of regulatory
examinations.
Hoefer & Arnett reviewed with senior management of the bank earnings
projections for the years 2000 through 2004 for the bank as a stand-alone
entity, assuming the reorganization would not occur. The projections utilized
for the bank were as follows:
Eagle National Bank
------------------------------------------------------------
Return on
Year Asset Growth Average Assets
-------- ---------------- -----------------
2000 45.00% 1.00%
2001 15.00 1.05
2002 12.00 1.10
2003 10.00 1.15
2004 10.00 1.20
In conducting its review and in arriving at its opinion, Hoefer &
Arnett relied upon and assumed the accuracy and completeness of the financial
and other information provided to it or publicly available, and did not attempt
to independently verify the same. Hoefer & Arnett relied upon the management of
the bank as to the reasonableness of the financial and operating forecasts, and
projections (and the assumptions and bases therefor) provided to it, and Hoefer
& Arnett assumed that such forecasts and projections reflect the best currently
available estimates and judgments of the bank management. Hoefer & Arnett also
assumed, without independent verification, that the allowance for loan losses
for the bank was adequate to cover such losses. Hoefer & Arnett did not make or
obtain any evaluations or appraisals of the properties of the bank, nor did it
examine any individual loan credit files. For purposes of its opinion, Hoefer &
Arnett assumed that the reorganization will have the tax, accounting and legal
effects described in the transfer agreement and relied, as to legal matters,
exclusively on counsel to the bank, as to the accuracy of the disclosures set
forth in the transfer agreement. Hoefer & Arnett's opinion is limited to the
fairness, from a financial point of view, to all of the holders of the common
shares of the bank stock with respect to the sale of less than 30% of the bank
stock to the Company at $15.00 per share and the transfer of the Park Cities
branch to the Park Cities bank for $500,000 plus certain adjustments and does
not address the bank's underlying business decision to proceed with the proposed
transaction.

<PAGE>
As more fully discussed below, Hoefer & Arnett considered the following
financial and other factors:
. the historical and current financial position and results of
operations of the bank, including interest income, interest
expense, net interest income, net interest margin, provision for
loan losses, noninterest income, noninterest expense, earnings,
dividends, internal capital generation, book value, intangible
assets, return on assets, return on shareholders' equity,
capitalization, the amount and type of nonperforming assets, loan
losses and the reserve for loan losses, all as set forth in the
financial statements for the bank;
. the assets and liabilities of the bank, including the loan,
investment and mortgage portfolios, deposits, other liabilities,
historical and current liability sources and costs and liquidity;
. the nature and terms of certain other merger transactions
involving banks and bank holding companies; and
. Hoefer & Arnett's assessment of general economic, market and
financial conditions and its experience in other transactions, as
well as its experience in securities valuation and its knowledge
of the banking industry generally.
Hoefer & Arnett's opinion is necessarily based upon conditions as they
existed and can be evaluated on the date of its opinion and the information made
available to it through that date.
In connection with rendering its Fairness Opinion, Hoefer & Arnett
performed certain financial analyses, which are summarized below. Hoefer &
Arnett believes that its analysis must be considered as a whole and that
selecting portions of such analysis and the factors considered therein, without
considering all factors and analysis, could create an incomplete view of the
analysis and the processes underlying Hoefer & Arnett's Fairness Opinion. The
preparation of a fairness opinion is a complex process involving subjective
judgments. In its analyses, Hoefer & Arnett made numerous assumptions with
respect to industry performance, business and economic conditions, and other
matters, many of which are beyond the control of the bank. Any estimates
contained in Hoefer & Arnett's analyses are not necessarily indicative of future
results or values, which may be significantly more or less favorable than such
estimates. Estimates of values of companies do not purport to be appraisals or
necessarily reflect the prices at which companies or their securities may
actually be sold. Except as described below, none of the financial analyses
performed by Hoefer & Arnett was assigned a greater significance by Hoefer &
Arnett than any other.
The financial forecasts and projections of the bank prepared by Hoefer
& Arnett were based on projections provided by the bank as well as Hoefer &
Arnett's own assessment of general economic, market and financial conditions.
All such information was reviewed with the respective management of the bank.
The bank does not publicly disclose internal management financial forecasts and
projections of the type provided to Hoefer & Arnett in connection with its
review of the proposed reorganization. Such forecasts and projections were not
prepared with a view towards public disclosure. The forecasts and projections
prepared by Hoefer & Arnett were based on numerous variables and assumptions,
which are inherently uncertain, including, without limitation, factors related
to general economic and market conditions. Accordingly, actual results could
vary significantly from those set forth in such forecasts and projections.
Summary of Proposal. Hoefer & Arnett reviewed the terms of the proposed
transaction. A purchase price of $15.00 per share represents a price to stated
book value at April 30, 2000 of 1.47, price to estimated 2000 earnings of 15.53
and a price to total assets of 19.03%.
Guideline Company Analysis. Hoefer & Arnett reviewed certain
information relating to selected publicly traded Texas banking organizations as
of May 31, 2000 (the "Guideline Companies"). This data was obtained from SNL
Securities, L.P., an independent financial information publishing firm.
64
<PAGE>
On the basis of the trading multiples of the Guideline Companies,
Hoefer & Arnett calculated a range of purchase prices as a multiple of stated
book value, earnings and assets. The chart below shows the low, high and median
for the Guideline Companies and the resulting price range for the bank.
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Pricing Multiples for Per Share Value
Guideline Companies for the Bank
----------------------------- -------------------------------
Low High Median Low High Median
----------------------------- -------------------------------
<S> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C>
Price/Book Value 0.94x 2.79x 1.78x $9.57 $28.40 $18.12
Price/Earnings 6.9x 20.9x 11.7x $6.69 $20.27 $11.35
Price/Assets 7.40% 19.80% 13.39% $7.39 $19.77 $13.37
</TABLE>
The price to book value multiple resulting from the terms of the transfer
agreement is below the median for the trading multiples for the Guideline
Companies. The price to earnings multiple and price to assets multiple are
higher than the median price to earnings multiple and price to assets multiple
for the trading multiples for the Guideline Companies. Given the bank's high
capital to asset ratio when compared to the Guideline Companies (10.20% compared
to 7.52%), we would expect a lower price to book multiple.
Discounted Cash Flow Analysis. Hoefer & Arnett performed a discounted
cash flow analysis to determine hypothetical present values for a share of the
bank stock as a five-year investment. Under this analysis, Hoefer & Arnett
considered certain scenarios for the performance of the bank stock using an
asset growth rate ranging from 45.00% to 10% and a return on average assets
ranging from 1.00% to 1.20% and a multiple of 1.78 times book value and 11.7
times earnings as the terminal value for the bank stock. A discount rate of 14%
was applied to these growth and terminal value scenarios. This discount rate,
growth rate and terminal value were chosen based upon what Hoefer & Arnett, in
its judgment, considered to be appropriate taking into account, among other
things, the bank's past and present performance, the general level of inflation,
rates of return for fixed income and equity securities in the marketplace
generally and for companies with similar risk profiles. In the scenarios
considered, the present value of a share of the bank stock was calculated to
average slightly less than that of the proposed offer. Thus, Hoefer & Arnett's
discounted cash flow analysis indicated that the bank shareholders would be
fairly compensated at the $15.00 per share cash purchase price. This analysis
also indicates that the shareholders of the bank that are not selling are not
adversely affected at the $15.00 per share cash purchase price.
Park Cities Branch Transfer Analysis. Hoefer & Arnett analyzed the
premiums paid for other bank branches in 1999 in both the nation and in the
Southwestern region of the United States. In 1999, there were 176 branch
transactions in the United States with a medium premium to total deposits of
8.50%. In the Southwest there were 14 branch transactions in 1999 with a median
premium to total deposits of 9.64%. At April 30, 2000, the Park Cities branch
had total deposits of $2,218,517 with significant growth potential in an
attractive market. Therefore, based on its analysis of all relevant factors,
Hoefer & Arnett opined that the proposed branch sale for $500,000 plus certain
adjustments as defined in the transfer agreement is fair to all shareholders of
the bank, from a financial point of view.
Other Analysis. Hoefer & Arnett prepared an overview of historical
financial performance of the bank.
The opinion expressed by Hoefer & Arnett was based upon market,
economic and other relevant considerations as they existed and have been
evaluated as of the date of the opinion. Events occurring after the date of
issuance of the opinion, including but not limited to, changes affecting the
securities markets, the results of operations or material changes in the assets
or liabilities of the bank could materially affect the assumptions used in
preparing the opinion.
Fees and Relationships. The bank engaged Hoefer & Arnett to review the
terms of the transaction and to render a fairness opinion in connection with the
proposed reorganization for $16,000, including all out-of-pocket expenses.
Hoefer & Arnett did not determine the amount of consideration to be paid. Hoefer
& Arnett does not own any shares of stock of the bank, the holding company or
the proposed Park Cities bank. There are no material relationships between
Hoefer & Arnett and its affiliates and the bank and its affiliates. There are
not any specific factors that did not support the fairness opinion. Hoefer &
Arnett will update its fairness opinion as of the date that this document is
65
<PAGE>
mailed to shareholders and the bank. The bank will obtain a revised fairness
opinion if there is a material amendment to the transfer agreement or
reorganization agreement.
Negotiation of the Terms of the Reorganization
The structure and terms of the transfer agreement were determined
through arm's-length negotiations between the bank and the selling directors.
The structure and terms of the reorganization agreement were based upon the
structure and terms of the transfer agreement. However, the holding company was
organized solely for the purpose of becoming a bank holding company, and certain
of the officers and directors of the bank also serve as officers and directors
of the holding company. For the foregoing reasons, the terms of the
reorganization agreement cannot be considered solely the result of arm's-length
negotiations.
The holding company will file an application to become a bank holding
company with the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas. The bank will file an
application with the FDIC for approval of the reorganization. Management
anticipates receiving all necessary approvals following the shareholders'
meeting. You should be aware that regulatory approval reflects only the view
that the transaction does not contravene applicable competitive standards
imposed by law, and that the transaction is consistent with regulatory policies
relating to safety and soundness. Regulatory approval is not an opinion that the
proposed transaction is favorable to the shareholders from a financial point of
view or that the regulatory authority has considered the adequacy of the terms
of the transaction. Regulatory approval is not an endorsement or recommendation
of the reorganization.
The respective boards of directors of the bank and the holding company
believe that the conversion and exchange of bank stock described above is a fair
and equitable method of effecting the reorganization. While the board of
directors of the bank advises each shareholder to make his or her own decision
with respect to the vote on the reorganization based on such shareholder's own
investment needs, we recommend that you vote in favor of the reorganization.
Conditions to Consummation of the Reorganization
Consummation of the reorganization is conditioned upon the approval and
consent to the reorganization agreement by the holders of at least two-thirds of
the outstanding shares of bank stock, pursuant to the National Bank Act (12
U.S.C. (S)215).
Consummation of the reorganization is also subject to the receipt of
all required regulatory approvals and to consummation of the acquisition of
shares of bank stock from the selling directors and selling shareholders
pursuant to the transfer agreement. If all conditions precedent are satisfied,
it is anticipated that the reorganization will be consummated in the fall of
2000.
The reorganization agreement may be amended by mutual agreement, in
writing, of the parties to the agreement with the approval of their respective
boards of directors and without the necessity of further action by the
shareholders. Should there be any material amendment to the reorganization
agreement prior to the Annual Meeting, all shareholders of the bank will receive
information relating to such amendment prior to such meeting. There will be no
amendment to the reorganization agreement following approval of the
reorganization by the shareholders of the bank that would materially affect the
consideration to be received by any shareholders of the bank, unless prior
notice, to the extent such notice is required by law, is given to all
shareholders and shareholder approval, to the extent such approval is required
by law, is obtained.
Operations of the Bank After the Reorganization
After the effective date of the reorganization, the holding company
will own the bank and former shareholders of the bank who elect to receive
holding company common stock in the reorganization will be shareholders of the
holding company. The bank will continue to conduct the business it presently
conducts except that it will operate only from its main office at 5006 Verde
Valley, Dallas, Texas because it will have sold the Park Cities branch to the
new bank being established by the selling directors. Following the
reorganization, the present officers and directors of the bank will continue in
those positions, except that Randy Pack, Jon Roy Reid, John Yeaman and Tom
Youngblood will have resigned as directors and employees of the bank. There will
be no change in the
66
<PAGE>
supervision and regulation of the bank by banking regulatory authorities. See
"Governmental Regulation."
Borrowings by the Holding Company
To fund the cash requirements of the stock transfer transaction and the
reorganization, the holding company intends to utilize a combination of two
sources. The holding company is offering $2,500,000 of its debentures. We are
offering the debentures to shareholders of the bank who elect to receive all
holding company stock in connection with the reorganization. The terms of the
debentures are described beginning on page 99.
If you elect to become a shareholder of the holding company, you should
be aware that the debentures represent indebtedness of the holding company. As
such, the holding company is obligated to pay interest on the debentures
annually at 9.5%. The holding company is also obligated to repay the principal
amount of the debentures over five years beginning in 2006. The repayment of the
debentures will reduce the amount of earnings available for the holding company
and the bank to retain to supplement capital to support growth and/or to pay
dividends to shareholders of the holding company.
The debentures will be unsecured. This means that the holders of the
debentures will have no collateral against which they can collect if the holding
company fails to make payments when due.
In the alternative, depending on the aggregate amount of the cash
requirements of the stock transfer transaction and the reorganization, and the
amount of debentures subscribed for, the holding company may borrow funds from
Wells Fargo Bank to finance the transaction.
Wells Fargo Bank has issued a commitment letter indicating that it will
loan up to $1,650,000 to the holding company. The commitment letter provides
that the obligation to make the loan is subject to execution of loan documents,
due diligence review of the bank and final loan committee approval.
The commitment letter provides that the loan will be repaid over a ten
year period. Interest will be due and payable upon demand, but if demand is not
made, will be due and payable quarterly. The loan will bear interest on the
unpaid balance at a rate equal to the prime rate in effect from time to time at
Wells Fargo Bank. The loan will be secured by a pledge of the bank stock
obtained by the holding company. In the event the holding company should default
in the repayment of the indebtedness, Wells Fargo Bank could foreclose upon the
bank stock to satisfy the remaining indebtedness. In that event, the holding
company would lose its ownership of the bank stock, the holding company's only
material asset. If this happens and you own holding company stock or debentures,
you will lose your entire investment.
The holding company's ability to repay the debt owed to Wells Fargo
Bank and the debt represented by the debentures, and to meet its operating
expenses will depend on the profitability of the bank and the bank's ability to
pay dividends to the holding company. The bank's ability to pay dividends to the
holding company is restricted by federal law and regulations. See "Dividends
Policy" and "Governmental Regulation."
You should also be aware that the holding company's ability to pay
dividends on its common stock is also restricted. See "Dividends Policy" and
"Governmental Regulations." In addition, the holding company plans to retain
earnings and not pay dividends on its common stock until its debt is
substantially reduced.
Difference in Book Value
Book value is sometimes used by investors in banks as a benchmark from
which to determine the market value of bank stocks. Book value per share is not
fair market value per share. However, it provides a reference point as to the
amount of equity in the organization. The book value of the bank stock and the
holding company stock is effected by several factors, including the amount of
stockholders' equity and the number of shares of stock outstanding.
67
<PAGE>
The tangible book value per share of the bank stock is determined by
dividing the stockholders' equity of the bank by the number of shares
outstanding. At the effective date of the reorganization, the tangible book
value per share of the holding company stock will initially be somewhat less
than the tangible book value per share of the bank stock. This is because the
$15.00 per share amount of cash to be paid pursuant to the stock transfer
transaction and the reorganization is greater than $10.29, the tangible book
value per share of the bank stock as of June 30, 2000.
The following table reflects the potential for dilution in book value
resulting from the transaction:

Expenses of the Reorganization
The bank will pay for the expenses associated with solicitation of
proxies for the annual shareholders meeting and for all other expenses
associated with the reorganization.
Material Federal Income Tax Consequences
The following discussion is a general summary of certain United States
federal income tax consequences of the reorganization. This discussion is based
upon the Internal Revenue Code, regulations promulgated by the United States
Treasury Department, judicial authorities, and current rulings and
administrative practice of the Internal Revenue Service "IRS") in each case as
in effect as of the date of this document and all of which are subject to change
at any time, possibly with retroactive effect. For purposes of this discussion,
it is assumed that shares of bank stock are held as "capital assets" within the
meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (i.e., property held for investment). This
discussion does not address all aspects of federal income taxation that might be
relevant to particular holders of the bank stock in light of their status or
personal investment circumstances; nor does it discuss the consequences to such
holders who are subject to special treatment under the federal income tax laws
such as foreign persons, dealers in securities, regulated investment companies,
life insurance companies, other financial institutions, tax-exempt
organizations, pass-through entities, taxpayers who hold bank stock as part of a
"straddle," "hedge" or "conversion transaction" or who have a "functional
currency" other than the United States dollar or to persons who have received
their bank stock as compensation. Further, this discussion does not address the
state, local or foreign tax consequences of the reorganization.
The reorganization should not qualify as a reorganization under Section
368(a)(2)(E) of the Code. Rather, for federal income tax purposes the
reorganization is intended to constitute a non taxable incorporation pursuant to
Section 351 of the Code.
Assuming the reorganization is treated as a non taxable incorporation
within the meaning of Section 351 of the Code, the reorganization will result in
the following federal income tax consequences to the bank shareholders:
. The bank, the holding company and the interim bank will recognize
no gain or loss because of the reorganization.
68
<PAGE>
. The bank will recognize taxable gain or loss upon the sale of the
Park Cities branch pursuant to the transfer agreement.
. Each shareholder who receives only holding company common stock
will not recognize any gain or loss because of the reorganization.
. Each shareholder who receives only cash will recognize gain equal
to the amount of cash received, less the shareholder's basis in
the bank stock exchanged therefor. The gain recognized upon the
receipt of cash will be a capital gain to the extent the shares of
bank stock were held by the shareholder as a capital asset.
. A shareholder's aggregate tax basis in the shares of holding
company common stock received pursuant to the reorganization in
exchange for bank stock will be equal to the aggregate tax basis
of the shares of bank stock surrendered in exchange therefor.
. Each shareholder will include in his holding period for holding
company common stock received in the reorganization the holding
period of the shares of bank stock surrendered in exchange
therefor, provided that the bank stock is held as a capital asset
on the date of the exchange.
The foregoing is a summary discussion of the material federal income
tax consequence of the reorganization. The discussion is included for general
information purposes only and may not apply to a particular bank shareholder in
light of such shareholder's particular circumstances. Bank shareholders should
consult their own tax advisors as to the particular tax consequences to them of
the reorganization, including the application of state, local and foreign tax
laws and possible future changes in federal income tax laws and the
interpretation thereof, which can have retroactive effects.
Accounting Treatment
We intend to treat the proposed reorganization as a consolidation of
the bank with the interim bank for financial accounting purposes, whereby the
bank will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the holding company as a change in
corporate form. Results of operations are restated for prior periods as if the
entities involved had always been combined. Because the holding company will be
a one-bank holding company, immediately after the reorganization, its
consolidated financial statements will be substantially equivalent to the bank's
financial statements prior to the reorganization except that the holding
company's financial statements will reflect the debt to be incurred by the
holding company as part of the transaction. The holding company's parent-only
financial statements will reflect its investment in 100% of the shares of the
bank stock.
Trading and Resale of Holding Company Stock
The bank's shares are sold from time to time in private transactions.
Initially, we do not expect that holding company common stock will trade on a
more established basis following the reorganization. Currently, we have no plans
to list shares of the holding company common stock on any stock exchange or
automated quotation system, although we may do so in the future.
The holding company is registering its common stock to be issued in the
reorganization with the Commission under the Securities Act. Following the
reorganization, former shareholders may freely resell or otherwise transfer
their shares, except those former shareholders who are deemed "affiliates" of
the bank, within the meaning of Commission Rules 144 and 145. In general terms,
any person who is an executive officer, director or 10% shareholder of the bank
at the time of the shareholders' meeting may be deemed to be an affiliate of the
bank for purposes of Commission Rules 144 and 145. This proxy
statement/prospectus does not cover resales of shares of the holding company
common stock to be issued to affiliates of the bank in connection with the
transaction.
The holding company common stock received by persons who are deemed to
be affiliates of the bank may be resold only:
69
<PAGE>
. in compliance with the resale provisions of Commission Rule
145(d);
. in compliance with the provisions of another applicable exemption
from the registration requirements of the Securities Act; or
. pursuant to an effective registration statement filed with the
Commission.
In general terms, Commission Rules 144 and 145(d) permit an affiliate
of the bank to sell shares of the holding company common stock received by him
or her or her in ordinary brokerage transactions subject to certain limitations
on the number of shares that may be resold in any consecutive three-month
period. Generally, the affiliate, not acting in concert with others, may not
sell that number of shares which is more than 1% of the outstanding shares of
the holding company common stock during the three-month period.
The ability of affiliates to resell shares of the holding company
common bank stock received in the transaction under Rule 144 or Rule 145 is
subject to the holding company's having satisfied its Securities Exchange Act of
1934 ("Exchange Act") reporting requirements, if any, for specified periods
prior to the time of sale. See "Description of the Holding Company--Supervision
and Regulation of the Holding Company--The Securities Exchange Act of 1934--
Periodic Reporting Requirements" for information regarding the probable
suspension of the holding company's reporting obligations.
Finally, an affiliate of the bank may not, as a general rule and
subject to an exception in a case of certain very small sales:
. sell any shares of the holding company common stock during the 30-
day period immediately preceding the day of the reorganization; or
. sell any shares of the holding company's stock received by him or
her in exchange for shares of the bank stock until after the
publication of financial results covering at least 30 days of
post-reorganization operations.
Proposed Resolution and Board Recommendation
Shareholders will be asked to consider and act upon the following
resolution in connection with the proposed reorganization:
RESOLVED, that the reorganization agreement entered
by and between Eagle National Bank and New Eagle
Bank, and joined in by ENB Bankshares, Inc. is
hereby approved and adopted and that the
consolidation provided for therein is authorized and
approved.
The board of directors unanimously recommends that shareholders vote in
favor of the foregoing resolution approving and adopting the reorganization
agreement and authorizing the consolidation.
RIGHTS OF DISSENTING SHAREHOLDERS
Pursuant to the provisions of Section 9 of the reorganization agreement
and 12 U.S.C. (S).215, any shareholder of the bank who votes against the
reorganization at the annual meeting or who gives notice in writing at or prior
to the annual meeting to the presiding officer that such shareholder dissents to
the reorganization shall, following consummation of the reorganization, be
entitled to receive the value of the shares so held by him or her as of the
effective date of the reorganization, upon written request made to the bank at
any time within thirty days after the effective date of the reorganization. The
written request must be accompanied by the surrender of such shareholder's bank
stock certificates. Any dissenting shareholder of the bank who does not follow
the prescribed procedure will not be entitled to appraisal rights with respect
to his shares. Failure by a shareholder to either (1) vote against the
reorganization or (2) give notice in writing at or prior to the annual meeting
that he or she is dissenting to the reorganization will be construed as a waiver
of appraisal rights.
The value of the shares of any dissenting shareholder will be
ascertained, as of the effective date of the reorganization, by an appraisal
made by a committee of three persons comprised of (i) one person selected by the
vote of the holders of the majority of the stock, the owners of which are
entitled to payment in cash (by reason of such request for appraisal), (ii) one
person selected by the directors of the bank, and (iii) one person selected by
the two persons who are selected in the foregoing manner. The valuation agreed
upon by any two of the
70
<PAGE>
three appraisers will govern. If the value so fixed is not satisfactory to any
dissenting shareholder who has requested payment, that shareholder may, within
five days after being notified of the appraised value of such shares, appeal to
the OCC who will then cause a reappraisal to be made, which will be final and
binding as to the value of the shares of such shareholder.
If, within ninety days from the effective date of the reorganization,
for any reason one or more of the appraisers is not selected as provided above
or the appraisers fail to determine the value of such shares, the OCC will, upon
written request of any interested party, cause an appraisal to be made by an
independent professional appraiser, which appraisal will be final and binding
upon all parties. The expenses of the OCC in making the appraisal or the
reappraisal, as the case may be, will be paid by the Resulting bank. The value
of the shares ascertained must be promptly paid to the dissenting shareholders.
The shares of holding company stock which would have been delivered to such
dissenting shareholders, if applicable, had they not requested payment must be
sold in such manner as satisfies the requirements of 12 U.S.C. (S)215, a copy of
the relevant portions of which is attached as Annex B. If such shares are sold
at a price greater than the amount paid to such dissenting shareholders, the
excess in such sale price must be paid to such dissenting shareholders.
Any shareholder of the bank who votes against the reorganization or who
gives notice of such dissent in writing at or prior to the Annual Meeting will
be notified in writing of the effective date of the reorganization.
The foregoing summary of dissenters' rights does not purport to be a
complete statement of the appraisal rights of dissenting shareholders. Because
of the complexity of the procedures described above, we urge you to consult with
independent legal counsel if you desire to exercise the right to an appraisal.
PROPOSAL 2:
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
One of the purposes of the annual meeting is to elect directors of the
bank to hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders or until their
respective successors are duly elected and qualified. The bylaws of the bank
provide that the shareholders set the number of members of the Board of
Directors at the annual meeting. The Board of Directors has proposed that the
shareholders set the board at eleven members.
The directors will be elected at the annual meeting to serve for a one-
year term expiring at the bank's annual meeting in the year 2001. Each nominee
elected as a director will continue in office until his successor has been duly
elected and qualified, or until the earliest of his or her death, resignation or
retirement.
The tables below set forth for each nominee for director:
. the name;
. age and the principal occupation of each nominee during the
previous five years;
. the directorships of public companies, if any, held by each
nominee; and
. the year he first became a director of the bank.

DESCRIPTION OF THE HOLDING COMPANY
Organization and Description of Business
We organized the holding company as a Texas business corporation on May
18, 2000, for the purpose of forming a bank holding company. The articles of
incorporation of the holding company authorize the issuance of up to 1,000,000
shares of bank stock, par value, $5.00 per share. The holding company has not
issued any shares and is being managed by its initial Board of Directors.
The primary function of the holding company is to own of all of the
bank stock. Its profitability will be dependent on the financial results of its
operating subsidiary, the bank. In the future, we may decide to acquire or form
additional subsidiaries, including other banks.
73
<PAGE>
At present, the holding company does not own or lease any property and
has no paid employees. It will not actively engage in business until after the
completion of the proposed reorganization. Until the day of the reorganization,
the holding company will use the bank's space and employees without payment.
After the reorganization, it will reimburse the bank on a fair and reasonable
basis for all services furnished to it and for all expenses that the bank pays
on its behalf. The holding company has not been involved in any litigation.
Properties
The holding company does not own or lease any properties. For
information about properties that the bank owns or leases, see "Description of
the Bank--Properties."
Management
The board of directors of the holding company is comprised of Harold
Campbell, Bobby Lutz and Patrick Adams. See "Description of the Bank--Directors
and Executive Officers" below. After the reorganization, the holding company
will be the sole shareholder of the bank and will elect the directors of the
bank annually. The board of directors of the holding company will appoint the
officers of the holding company to serve for one-year terms.
The following table provides information about the current officers of
the holding company. Both of these officers also serve as officers of the bank
and are employees of the bank.

Executive and Director Compensation
Because the holding company was not in existence in 1999, it paid no
compensation to its directors and officers for that year. Further, the holding
company has paid no compensation to its directors or officers to date during
2000. We anticipate that together the holding company and the bank will pay
directors and officers the same compensation that they currently receive, with
such increases in the future as may have occurred had the proposed
reorganization not occurred. Although the holding company will hold several
board meetings each year, we expect the total amount spent on directors for
their attendance at board meetings to remain the same as before the
reorganization. The holding company will not pay its directors separate
compensation for their attendance at board meetings, but the bank will continue
to compensate directors for their attendance at bank board meetings. See
"Description of the Bank--Executive Compensation" and "Description of the Bank--
Director Compensation" below.
Information about Beneficial Ownership of Significant Shareholders, Directors
and Executive Officers
Because of the stock transfer and branch sale transaction and the
payment of cash for bank stock pursuant to the reorganization, there will be
fewer shares of holding company stock than shares of bank stock outstanding
after the reorganization. As a result, after the reorganization, the percentage
ownership of the holding company by all shareholders who elect to receive
holding company stock, including significant shareholders, directors and
executive officers, will be greater than their percentage ownership in the bank
stock immediately prior to the reorganization. See Beneficial Ownership of the
by Significant Shareholders, Directors and Executive Officers."
Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
The information regarding certain relationships between the directors
and officers of the bank and transactions between the directors and officers of
the bank and the bank
74
<PAGE>
also applies to the holding company. Please refer to "Description of the Bank--
Certain Relationships and Related Transactions."
Directors' and Officers' Indemnification and Limits on Liability
The holding company's articles of incorporation and bylaws provide for
indemnification of its directors, officers, employees and agents against
liabilities and expenses incurred in legal proceedings concerning the holding
company, to the fullest extent permitted under Texas corporate law.
Indemnification will only apply to persons who act in good faith, in a manner he
or she reasonably believed to be in the best interest of the company, without
willful misconduct or recklessness.
We expect to extend the bank's present directors' and officers'
liability insurance policy to cover the holding company's directors and officers
without significant additional cost. This liability policy would cover the
typical errors and omissions liability associated with the activities of the
holding company. The provisions of the insurance policy would probably not
indemnify any of the holding company's officers and directors against liability
arising under the Securities Act. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities
arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and
persons controlling the holding company pursuant to the foregoing provision, we
have been informed that in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification
is against public policy and unenforceable.
The holding company's articles of incorporation and bylaws also limit
the liability of directors for monetary damages to acts of self-dealing, willful
misconduct or recklessness, unless the act constitutes a crime or involves
liability for the payment of taxes or an unlawful dividend. We believe that
these provisions will help reduce baseless litigation, but they may also make it
more difficult for shareholders to sue these persons on behalf of the holding
company.
Supervision and Regulation of the Holding Company
The Securities Act of 1933--The Offer and Sale of Securities. Under the
Securities Act, the holding company will be subject to the jurisdiction of the
Commission and of state securities commissions for matters relating to the offer
and sale of its securities. Presently, the bank is exempt from these
registration requirements. Accordingly, additional issuances of the holding
company's stock to raise capital or for dividend reinvestment, stock option and
other plans will require registration (absent any exemption from registration).
Registration will result in additional costs that the bank does not presently
have to incur because of an exemption for bank stock under the Securities Act.
The Securities Exchange Act of 1934--Periodic Reporting Requirements.
The bank stock is not registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act. After the
reorganization, Section 12 of the Exchange Act will require that the holding
company register its stock. The holding company will file periodic reports,
proxy statements and other information with the Commission. The reports will
include consolidated financial information about both the holding company and
the bank. The holding company's obligation to file periodic reports and other
information under Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act will be suspended
automatically upon the beginning of its first fiscal year in which it has less
than 300 holders of holding company common stock. Therefore, the holding company
anticipates that its reporting obligations will be suspended as of the beginning
of its next fiscal year.
The Bank Holding Company Act of 1956--Supervision by the Federal
Reserve Board. On the day of the reorganization, the holding company will become
subject to the provisions of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended,
and to supervision by the Federal Reserve Board. The following restrictions will
apply:
. General Supervision by the Federal Reserve Board. As a bank
holding company, our activities will be limited to the business of
banking and activities closely related or incidental to banking.
Bank holding companies are required to file periodic reports with
and are subject to examination by the Federal Reserve Board. The
Board has adopted a risk-focused supervision program for small
shell bank holding companies which is tied to the examination
results of the subsidiary bank. The Federal Reserve Board has
issued regulations under the Bank Holding Company Act that require
a bank holding company to serve as a source of financial and
managerial strength to its subsidiary banks. As a result, the
Federal Reserve Board may require that the holding company stand
ready to provide adequate capital
75
<PAGE>
funds to The Fidelity Deposit and Discount Bank during periods of
financial stress or adversity.
. Restrictions on Acquiring Control of other Banks and Companies. A
bank holding company may not
. acquire direct or indirect control of more than 5% of the
outstanding shares of any class of voting stock, or substantially
all of the assets of, any bank, or
. merge or consolidate with another bank holding company without
prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board.
In addition, a bank holding company may not
. engage in a nonbanking business, or
. acquire ownership or control of more than 5% of the outstanding
shares of any class of voting stock of any company engaged in a
nonbanking business
unless the business is determined by the Federal Reserve Board to be so
closely related to banking as to be a proper incident to banking. In
making this determination, the Federal Reserve Board considers whether
these activities offer benefits to the public that outweigh any
possible adverse effects.
. Anti-Tie-In Provisions. A bank holding company and its
subsidiaries may not engage in certain tie-in arrangements in
connection with any extension of credit or provision of any
property or services. The so-called "anti-tie-in" provisions state
generally that a bank may not
. extend credit,
. lease or sell property, or
. furnish any service to a customer on the condition that the
customer provide additional credit or service to the bank
or its affiliates, or on the condition that the customer
not obtain other credit or service from a competitor of the
bank.
. Restrictions on Extensions of Credit by Banks to their Holding
Companies. Subsidiary banks of a bank holding company are also
subject to certain restrictions imposed by the Federal Reserve Act
on
. any extensions of credit to the bank holding company or any
of its subsidiaries,
. investments in the stock or other securities of the bank
holding company, and
. taking these stock or securities as collateral for loans to
any borrower.
. Risk-Based Capital Guidelines. Bank holding companies must comply
with the Federal Reserve Board's risk-based capital guidelines.
The required minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted
assets, including certain off-balance sheet activities, such as
standby letters of credit, is 8%. At least half of the total
capital is required to be "Tier I Capital," consisting principally
of bank stockholders' equity, less certain intangible assets. The
remainder, "Tier II Capital," may consist of:
. certain preferred stock,
. a limited amount of subordinated debt,
76
<PAGE>
. certain hybrid capital instruments,
. other debt securities, and
. a limited amount of the general loan loss allowance.
The risk-based capital guidelines are required to take adequate account
of interest rate risk, concentration of credit risk, and risks of
nontraditional activities.
. Capital Leverage Ratio Requirements. The Federal Reserve Board
requires a banking holding company to maintain a leverage ratio of
a minimum level of Tier I capital (as determined under the risk-
based capital guidelines) equal to 3% of average total
consolidated assets for those bank holding companies that have the
highest regulatory examination rating and are not contemplating or
experiencing significant growth or expansion. All other bank
holding companies are required to maintain a ratio of at least 1%
to 2% above the stated minimum. The Bank is subject to almost
identical capital requirements adopted by the OCC.
. Restrictions on Control Changes. The Change in Bank Control Act of
1978 requires persons seeking control of a bank or bank holding
company to obtain approval from the appropriate federal banking
agency before completing the transaction. "Control" is generally
presumed to be the power to vote 10% or more of a company's voting
stock. The Federal Reserve Board is responsible for reviewing
changes in control of bank holding companies. In doing so, the
Federal Reserve Board reviews the financial position, experience
and integrity of the acquiring person and the effect on the
financial condition of the bank holding company, relevant markets
and federal deposit insurance funds.
The Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of
1994-Interstate Banking. Prior to the passage of the Riegle-Neal Interstate
Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994, also known as the Interstate
Banking Act, the Bank Holding Company Act prohibited a bank holding company
located in one state from acquiring a bank located in another state, unless the
law of the state where the bank to be acquired was located specifically
authorized the acquisition. Similarly, prior law generally prohibited interstate
branching by a single bank. The Interstate Banking Act permits an adequately
capitalized and adequately managed bank holding company to acquire a bank in
another state whether or not the law of that other state permits the
acquisition, subject to certain deposit concentration caps and approval by the
Federal Reserve Board. The law permits states to require stricter concentration
limitations or to require that the target be in existence for up to 5 years
before an out-of-state bank or bank holding company may acquire it. In contrast
to interstate acquisitions and mergers, the Interstate Banking Act permits
acquisitions of less than all branches of a bank only if the state's laws permit
it.
A bank holding company or bank may not acquire a bank outside its home
state primarily for the purpose of deposit production, and the transaction must
not have a negative impact on the communities that the target bank serves.
Permitted Activities
The Federal Reserve Board permits bank holding companies to engage in
activities so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to
be a proper incident of banking. In 1997, the Federal Reserve Board
significantly expanded its list of permissible nonbanking activities to improve
the competitiveness of bank holding companies. The following list includes
activities that a holding company may presently conduct and is subject to change
by the Federal Reserve Board:
. Making, acquiring or servicing loans and other extensions of
credit for its own account or for the account of others.
. Any activity used in connection with making, acquiring, brokering,
or servicing loans or other extensions of credit, as determined by
the Federal Reserve Board. The Board has determined that the
following activities are permissible:
. Real estate and personal property appraising;
77

. Arranging commercial real estate equity financing;
. Check-guaranty services;
. Collection agency services;
. Credit bureau services;

DESCRIPTION OF THE BANK
History
Eagle National Bank opened for business on February 28, 1997, as a
national banking association. Deposits held by the bank are insured by the FDIC
to the maximum extent permitted by law. The bank's principal office is located
at 5006 Verde Valley, Dallas, Texas 75240. The bank also operates a full service
branch known as "Park Cities branch"
80
<PAGE>
located at 6829 Hillcrest, Dallas, Texas, which opened March 27, 2000. The Park
Cities branch is being sold to the selling directors pursuant to the terms and
conditions of the transfer agreement.
Description of Business
The bank engages in a full service commercial and consumer banking
business, including the following services:
. accepting time and demand deposits;
. providing personal and business checking accounts at competitive
rates; and
. making secured and unsecured commercial and consumer loans.
The bank is a locally managed community bank that seeks to provide
personal attention and professional assistance to its customer base, which
consists principally of individuals and small and medium-sized businesses. The
bank's philosophy includes offering direct access to its officers and personnel,
providing friendly, informed and courteous service, local and timely decision
making, flexible and reasonable operating procedures, and consistently-applied
credit policies.
The bank's primary service area is located in the Dallas metropolitan
area. The Bank encounters competition in the scope and type of services it
offers, interest rates it pays on time deposits, its ability to attract new
deposits, and other aspects of its banking business.
The bank's acceptance of time demand and savings deposits includes NOW
accounts, money market accounts, regular savings accounts, and certificates of
deposit. The bank also offers overdraft protection to its checking customers.
The bank makes secured and unsecured commercial, consumer, installment
and construction loans. Residential mortgages and small business loans have
always been at the core of the bank's portfolio. Consumer loans include
revolving credit lines and commercial lending.
The bank offers the following support services to make financial
management more efficient and convenient for its customers:
. on-line home and business banking;
. telephone banking;
. direct deposit, drive-in banking;
. federal tax depository;
. MasterCard/Visa credit card services;
. night deposit services;
. notary public services;
. safe deposit boxes;
. travelers checks;
. U.S. savings bonds; and
. individual retirement accounts.
At June 30, 2000, the bank had
. total assets of $60,339,000,
. total shareholders' equity of $5,912,000, and
. total liabilities of $54,427,000, which includes $54,054,000 of
deposits.
On June 30, 2000, the bank had approximately 21 full time employees and
no part-time employees. Management considers relations with our employees to be
good.

</TABLE>
Assuming that the stock transfer transaction and the reorganization are
completed, the bank will sell the Park Cities branch.
In addition, the bank owns a tract of land in Allen, Texas at which the
bank is considering establishing an additional branch.
Supervision and Regulation of the Bank
As an FDIC-insured, national banking association located in Texas, the
bank is subject to supervision, regulation and examination by the OCC and the
FDIC. The bank is also subject to requirements and restrictions under federal
and state law, including:
. requirements to maintain reserves against loans and lease losses,
. restrictions on the types and amounts of loans that may be granted
and
. the interest that may be charged on the loans,
. limitations on the types of investments the bank may make and the
types of services the bank may offer, and
. restrictions on loans to insiders of the bank or other insider
transactions.
Various consumer loans regulations also affect the operations of the
bank. In addition, the actions of the Federal Reserve Board, as it attempts to
control the money supply and credit availability in order to influence the
economy, impact commercial banks. The proposed reorganization will not
significantly change the authority of these agencies over the bank. The
information below highlights various aspects of regulation of the bank under
federal and state laws.
Federal Banking Law
Federal banking laws applicable to the bank include, among other
things, provisions that:
. limit the scope of the bank's business;
. require the maintenance of certain reserves against loans and
lease losses;
. restrict investments and borrowings by the bank;
. limit the payment of dividends; and
. regulate branching activities and mergers and acquisitions.
Generally, the bank must obtain prior approval from the OCC for the
acquisition of shares of stock. The bank may purchase, sell and hold investments
in the form of bonds, notes and debentures to the extent permitted by federal
law.
82
<PAGE>
Federal banking law also requires that a bank obtain the approval of
the OCC for any merger where the surviving bank would be a national bank. In
reviewing the merger application, the OCC considers, among other things, whether
the merger would be consistent with adequate and sound banking practices and is
in the public interest, on the basis of several factors, including the potential
effect of the merger on competition and the convenience and needs of the
affected communities.
Any person intending to acquire more than 10% of outstanding voting
shares of stock in a national bank must obtain the prior approval of the OCC.
In addition, the OCC conducts regular examinations of the bank.
The FDIC insures the bank's deposits pursuant to the system of federal
deposit insurance initially established by the Banking Act of 1933. The bank
must comply with the FDIC's risk-based capital guidelines. Under the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991, the FDIC has regulations
defining the levels at which an insured institution would be considered:
. well capitalized;
. adequately capitalized;
. undercapitalized;
. significantly undercapitalized;
. critically undercapitalized.
To be adequately capitalized, the required minimum ratio of total
capital to risk-weighted assets, including certain off-balance sheet activities,
such as standby letters of credit, is 8%. To be well capitalized, this risk-
based ratio must be at least 10%. At least half of the total capital is required
to be "Tier I Capital," consisting principally of bank stockholders' equity,
less certain intangible assets. The remainder, "Tier II Capital," may consist of
. certain preferred stock;
. a limited amount of subordinated debt;
. certain hybrid capital instruments;
. other debt securities; and
. a limited amount of the general loan loss allowance.
The risk-based capital guidelines must take into account interest rate
risk, concentration of credit risk, and risks of nontraditional activities. As
of June 30, 1999, the bank satisfied the criteria to be classified as "well
capitalized," and we do not expect the proposed reorganization to change the
bank's capitalization.
The FDIC could, under certain circumstances, reclassify a "well-
capitalized" institution as "adequately capitalized" or require an "adequately
capitalized" or "undercapitalized" institution to comply with supervisory
actions as if it were in the next lower category. A reclassification could be
made if the regulatory agency determines that the institution is in an unsafe or
unsound condition (which could include unsatisfactory examination ratings). In
the event an institution's capital deteriorates to the undercapitalized category
or below, the law prescribes an increasing amount of regulatory intervention.
The bank is also subject to rules requiring a minimum ratio of
classified assets to capital, minimum earnings necessary to absorb losses, and a
minimum ratio of market value to book value for publicly held institutions.
83
<PAGE>
The bank's deposits have the maximum insurance coverage provided by the
FDIC, currently $100,000 per account. The bank pays insurance premiums into the
Bank Insurance Fund according to rates established by the FDIC. The FDIC has
discretion to increase premiums in the future in response to changes in the
economic climate of the banking industry. As a result, the future cost of
deposit insurance for the bank is, in large part, dependent upon the extent of
future bank failures and the amount of insurance coverage provided by the FDIC
for each deposit account.
The FDIC has implemented a risk-related premium schedule for all
insured depository institutions that results in the assessment of premiums based
on capital and supervisory measures. Under the risk-related premium schedule,
the FDIC assigns, on a semiannual basis, each depository institution to one of
three capital groups, as follows:
. well-capitalized;
. adequately capitalized; or
. undercapitalized.
and further assigns such institutions to a subgroup within a capital group. The
institution's subgroup assignment is based upon the FDIC's judgment of the
institution's strength in light of supervisory evaluations, including
examination reports, statistical analyses and other information relevant to
measuring the risk posed by the institution. Only institutions with a total
capital to risk-adjusted assets ratio of 10% or greater, a Tier I capital to
risk-based assets ratio of 6% or greater, and a Tier I leverage ratio of 5% or
greater, are assigned to the well-capitalized group. At June 30, 1999, the bank
was well capitalized for purposes of calculating insurance assessments.
The Bank Insurance Fund is presently fully funded at more than the
minimum amount required by law. Accordingly, the 1999 BIF assessment rates range
from zero for those institutions with the least risk, to $0.27 for every $100 of
insured deposits for institutions deemed to have the highest risk. The bank is
in the category of institutions that presently pay nothing for deposit
insurance. The FDIC adjusts the rates every six months.
While the bank presently pays no premiums for deposit insurance, it is
subject to assessments to pay the interest on bonds issued by the Financing
Corporation, which is known as FICO. FICO was created by Congress to issue bonds
to finance the resolution of failed thrift institutions. Prior to 1997, only
thrift institutions were subject to assessments to raise funds to pay the FICO
bonds.
On September 30, 1996, as part of the Omnibus Budget Act, Congress
enacted the Deposit Insurance Funds Act of 1996, which recapitalized the Savings
Association Insurance Fund and provided that commercial banks would be subject
to 1/5 of the assessment to which savings and loan associations are subject for
FICO bond payments through 1999. Beginning in 2000, commercial banks and savings
and loan associations will be subject to the same assessment for FICO bonds.
Under the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977, the OCC must determine
whether the bank is meeting the credit needs of the community, including low and
moderate income neighborhoods, that it serves and must take this record into
account in its evaluation of most regulatory applications the bank files with
the OCC. The OCC makes publicly available its evaluation of the bank's record of
meeting the credit needs of its entire community. This evaluation includes a
descriptive rating of:
. outstanding;
. satisfactory;
. needs to improve, or
. substantial noncompliance.
At June 30, 2000, the bank had a satisfactory CRA rating.

<PAGE>
The Bank Enterprise Act of 1991 requires "truth-in-savings" on consumer
deposit accounts so that consumers can make meaningful comparisons between the
competing claims of banks with regard to deposit accounts and products. Under
this provision, the bank is required to provide information to depositors
concerning the terms of their deposit accounts, and in particular, to disclose
the annual percentage yield. There are some operational costs of complying with
this law.
Suspicious Activities Reports. Under the Bank Secrecy Act, banks must
report to the IRS currency transactions of more than $10,000 or multiple
transactions in any one day that aggregate in excess of $10,000.
Interstate Banking. The Bank may engage in interstate banking, subject
to certain limitations. See "Description of the Holding Company--Supervision and
Regulation--The Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of
1994--Interstate Banking."
New Legislation
Proposed legislation is introduced in almost every legislative session
that would dramatically affect the regulation of the banking industry. At this
time, we cannot predict whether or not Congress will enact legislation and what
effect the legislation might have on the bank. For example, we cannot predict
the full impact of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Services Modernization Act,
signed into law on November 12, 1999, which will allow bank holding company
subsidiaries and national bank operating subsidiaries to offer a wide range of
new financial services, including securities underwriting. The new law also
permits bank holding company subsidiaries to engage in real estate development
and insurance underwriting.
Legal Proceedings
The nature of the bank's business generates a certain amount of
litigation involving matters arising in the ordinary course of business. In the
opinion of management of the bank, however, no legal proceedings are pending,
which, if determined adversely to the bank, would materially affect the bank's
undivided profits or financial condition. There are no proceedings pending other
than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business of the bank. In
addition, to management's knowledge, no government authorities have initiated or
contemplated any material legal actions against the bank.

Compensation of Directors
During 1999, the bank paid directors' fees of $500 per meeting attended
to bank directors for attending and participating in board of director's
meetings and $100 for committee meetings. In the aggregate, the bank paid the
Board of Directors $75,000 for all services rendered in 1999. The Board of
Directors held thirteen regular meetings and 31 committee meetings in 1999. All
directors attended at least 75% of those meetings.
During 1999, the bank's board of directors maintained a Directors Loan
Committee, an Audit and Budget Committee and an Executive Committee.
The Directors Loan Committee is responsible for reviewing loans made by
the bank's officers and approving loans over the individual loan limits of each
officer. Directors Campbell, Hensley, Reid, Yeaman and Youngblood served on this
committee during 1999. This committee met 19 times during 1999. All members
attended at least 75% of these meetings.
The Audit and Budget Committee is responsible for establishing the
bank's annual budget, monitoring compliance with the bank's policies and
ensuring that internal controls are in place. Directors Bailey, Campbell,
Griffith, Rhoades and Youngblood served on this committee during 1999. This
committee met three times during 1999. All members attended at least 75% of
these meetings.
The Executive Committee is responsible for developing the strategic
plan and making recommendations to the board regarding strategic decisions.
Directors Campbell, Lutz, Pack and Youngblood served on this committee during
1999. This committee met eight times during 1999. All members attended at least
75% of these meetings.
Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
Except as described below and under "Proposal 1: The Proposed
Reorganization," the bank has not entered into and does not intend to enter into
any material transactions with any director or executive officer of the bank or
their associates.
Some of our directors and officers and the companies with which they
are associated had banking transactions with the bank in the ordinary course of
its business during 1999, and the bank expects to continue such banking
transactions in the future.
Total loans outstanding from the bank at June 30, 2000, to the bank's
officers and directors as a group, members of their immediate families and
companies in which they had an ownership interest of 10% or more, amounted to
$2,277,339, or approximately 39.1% of the total equity capital of the bank. The
bank made these loans in the ordinary course of business on substantially the
same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as
88
<PAGE>
those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with other persons,
and they did not involve more than the normal risk of collection or present
other unfavorable features.
The largest total amount of indebtedness outstanding during 1999 to the
above described group was approximately $2,325,376. The aggregate amount of
indebtedness outstanding as of the latest practicable date, June 30, 2000, to
the above group was approximately $2,447,129.
DESCRIPTION OF THE BANK'S CAPITAL SECURITIES
Bank Stock
Eagle National Bank is authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of its
common stock, par value $5.00 per share, of which 574,750 shares were issued and
outstanding as of June 30, 2000. No other shares of capital stock were issued or
outstanding. The bank is not authorized to issue any other class of stock. At of
June 30, 2000, the bank had approximately 124 shareholders.
Voting Rights. Each share of bank stock is entitled to one vote on all
matters that may be brought before shareholders' meetings, except that the
holders of bank stock have cumulative voting rights in the election of
directors. Cumulative voting for the election of directors entitles each
shareholder to multiply the number of votes to which the shareholder is entitled
by the total number of directors to be elected, and the shareholder may cast the
whole number of these votes for one candidate or may distribute them among two
or more candidates.
Preemptive Rights. Shareholders of the bank have the preemptive right
to purchase additional shares of bank stock to be issued by the bank, except
with respect to 40,000 shares of bank stock to be issued pursuant to the bank's
Stock Option Plan.
Liquidation. In the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of
the bank, shareholders of the bank are entitled to share ratably in all assets
remaining after payment of liabilities.
Liability for Further Assessments. The bank's shareholders are not
subject to further assessments by the bank on their shares of bank stock.
Sinking Fund Provision. The bank's shares do not require a "sinking
fund," which is a separate capital reserve maintained to pay shareholders who
have certain preferential rights with respect to their investment in the event
of liquidation or redemption.
Redemption Provision. The bank's shareholders are not subject to having
their shares of bank stock redeemed or purchased by the holding company and do
not have a right to cause such a redemption.
Dividends. Each shareholder of the bank is entitled to receive
dividends that may be declared by the Board of Directors out of legally
available funds. The bank, as a relatively new bank, has historically not paid
dividends to its shareholders. Payment of dividends is subject to the
restrictions under federal banking laws, which provide that a bank may declare
and pay dividends only out of accumulated net earnings and only if the bank
meets certain capital requirements. Further, an insured bank may not declare and
pay dividends if it is subject to a supervisory order. Directors are
specifically liable for unlawful dividends.
Stock Option Plans
Stock Option Plan. The bank has reserved 40,000 shares of bank stock
for the grant of nonqualified stock options under the Stock Option Plan. The
purposes of the Stock Option Plan are:
. to attract, retain and compensate, as key employees of the bank,
highly qualified individuals;
. to more significantly align the interests of the key employees
with those of the bank's shareholders by underscoring their common
interests;
89
<PAGE>
. to encourage key employees to have a greater personal financial
stake in the bank through the ownership of bank stock; and
. to increase the long-term value of the bank stock.
The Stock Option Plan has the following significant terms:
. Duration of Plan. The Stock Option Plan will terminate upon the
earlier of the Board's adoption of a resolution terminating the
Stock Option Plan or 10 years from the date the Stock Option Plan
was approved and adopted, which became effective on February 28,
1997.
. Shares Issuable. The Bank may issue no more than 40,000 shares of
bank stock under the plan, and this number may be adjusted from
time to time due to stock splits, payments of stock dividends or
other changes in the capital structure of the bank. Also, the
shares under the plan may be exchanged for the securities of
another entity, for example, if a merger or consolidation such as
that contemplated by the reorganization occurs.
. Eligible Participants, Annual Awards. Employees of the bank are
eligible to receive awards under the plan.
. Purchase Price. The purchase price of bank stock subject to a
stock option is determined by the compensation committee of the
bank at the time of grant.
. Term of Stock Options. No stock option is exercisable after 10
years from the date of grant.
. Vesting Periods. The bank may grant stock options with varying
vesting periods.
. Change in Control Provisions. The Stock Option Plan contains
certain change in control provisions that permit the options
granted to become exercisable upon the occurrence of a change in
control of the bank as described in the plan.
. Plan Administration. A committee comprised of three directors
administers the Stock Option Plan. It is possible for directors
participating in such administration to receive awards under the
plan if they are employees of the bank. The body established to
administer the Stock Option Plan is vested with the authority and
discretion to interpret the Stock Option Plan, and to make any
rules or regulations pertaining to it. Any interpretations and
decisions of the administrative body are final and binding.
. Death, Retirement or Disability of Employee. In the event that a
participant ceases to be an employee of the bank then options not
yet subject to exercise, or the unexercised portions of any option
the subject to exercise, shall terminate upon:
. immediately upon the date on which employment is
terminated for "cause"; or
. 3 months after the date on which employment is terminated
other than for "cause," death or total disability; or
. one year after employment is terminated due to death or
total disability.
. Nontransferability. Except as otherwise provided by the bank's
board of directors, awards made under the Stock Option Plan are
nontransferable other than by will or the laws of descent and
distribution. During the employee's lifetime, only the employee
may exercise his or her stock options granted under the plan, or,
in the event of his or her disability or death, a legal
representative may exercise the options.
90
<PAGE>
. Capital Changes. The Stock Option Plan provides that, if the bank,
at any time, increases or decreases the number of its outstanding
shares of bank stock or changes, in any way, the rights and
privileges of such shares through a stock dividend, or through a
stock split, reclassification or other recapitalization involving
the bank stock, then the bank shall increase, decrease or change,
in like manner, the numbers, rights and privileges of shares
issuable under the Stock Option Plan.
. Amendments. The Board of Directors may amend the Stock Option Plan
at any time without shareholder approval, provided, however, that
amendment of the Stock Option Plan may not materially and
adversely affect any right of a participant with respect to shares
of bank stock previously issued without the participant's written
consent.
At June 30, 2000, the bank had issued options to key employees to purchase an
aggregate of 15,000 shares of bank stock at an exercise price of $10.00 per
share. Shares issued under this plan may dilute the ownership interests and
voting power of existing shareholders. Pursuant to the transfer agreement, the
holding company will pay an aggregate of $37,500 or $5.00 per option share to
Tom Youngblood in exchange for the cancellation of his option to purchase 7,500
shares of bank stock. Upon consummation of the proposed reorganization, the
holding company will issue substituted or replacement options for the bank's
outstanding options under the Stock Option Plan. See "Information about the
Reorganization--Stock Option Plans."
DESCRIPTION OF THE HOLDING COMPANY'S CAPITAL SECURITIES
Holding Company Common Stock
The authorized capital stock of the holding company consists of
1,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $5.00 per share. Until completion of
the reorganization, no shares of the holding company common stock will be issued
or outstanding.
Voting Rights. Each share of holding company common stock entitles its
holder to one vote on all matters upon which shareholders have the right to
vote, except that the holders of holding company common stock have cumulative
voting rights in the election of directors. The holders of holding company
common stock will possess the exclusive voting rights in the holding company.
Preemptive Rights. Shareholders of the holding company have the
preemptive right to acquire additional shares to be issued by the holding
company except under the following circumstances:
. issuance of shares to employees pursuant to approval by the
affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares
entitled to vote on such issuance or when authorized by and
consistent with a plan previously approved by such a vote of
shareholders;
. issuance of shares sold otherwise than for cash;
. issuance of up to 40,000 shares of holding company common stock to
employees of the holding company or the bank pursuant to the
exercise of options granted in replacement or substitution for
options granted under the bank's Stock Option Plan; or
. issuance of shares to holders of the holding company's debentures
upon the conversion of the debentures into holding company common
stock pursuant to the terms of the debentures.
Liquidation. In the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of
the holding company, the holders of holding company common stock are entitled to
share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities.
Liability for Further Assessments. The holding company's shareholders
are not subject to further assessments by the holding company on their shares.
91
<PAGE>
Sinking Fund Provision. The holding company common stock does not
require a "sinking fund," which is a separate capital reserve maintained to pay
shareholders who have certain preferential rights with respect their investment
in the event of liquidation or redemption.
Redemption Provision. The holders of holding company common stock are
not subject to having their shares "redeemed" or purchased by the holding
company and do not have a right to cause such a redemption.
Dividends. Each shareholder is entitled to receive dividends that may
be declared by the Board of Directors from time to time out of legally available
funds. The bank has not paid any dividends since its inception in 1997. We
presently intend to continue a dividend policy of retaining earnings and not
paying dividends for several years while the holding company's debt is being
repaid. Future dividends will ultimately depend upon future earnings and
financial condition of the holding company and the bank, and appropriate legal
restrictions and other relevant factors.
Under the Texas Business Corporation Act ("TBCA"), the holding company
may not pay a dividend if:
. after the payment of the dividend, the holding company would be
unable to pay its debts as they become due, or
. the amount of the dividend is greater than the excess of the net
assets of the holding company over its stated capital.
Cash available for dividend distribution to shareholders of the holding
company must initially come from dividends that the bank pays to the holding
company. As a result, the legal restrictions on the bank's dividend payments
also affect the ability of the holding company to pay dividends. See
"Description of the Bank's Capital Securities--Bank Stock."
Stock Option Plan. The holding company intends to establish a Stock
Option Plan, pursuant to which the continuing grantee of stock options under the
bank's Stock Option Plan will receive substituted options to purchase the common
stock of the holding company. See "Description of the Bank's Capital Securities
--Stock Option Plans."
Periodic Reporting. After the reorganization, Section 12 of the
Exchange Act will require that the holding company register its stock. The
holding company will file periodic reports, proxy statements and other
information with the Commission. The holding company's obligation to file
periodic reports and other information under Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act
will be suspended automatically upon the beginning of its first fiscal year in
which it has less than 300 holders of holding company common stock. Therefore,
the holding company anticipates that its reporting obligations will be suspended
as of the beginning of its next fiscal year.
COMPARISON OF SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS
While we believe that the description covers the material differences
between the rights of holders of bank stock and the rights of holders of holding
company common stock, this summary may not contain all of the information that
is important to you. You should carefully read this entire document and the
other documents we refer to for a more complete understanding of the differences
between being a shareholder of the bank and being a shareholder of the holding
company.
After the reorganization, the shareholders of the bank who elect to
receive holding company common stock in the reorganization will become
shareholders of the holding company. There are certain differences in the rights
of shareholders of these two entities. These differences arise from differences
in the laws that govern the two entities and differences in their articles and
bylaws. The bank is incorporated under National Bank Act which presently governs
the rights of shareholders of the bank. The holding company is incorporated
under the TBCA, which will govern the rights of shareholders of the holding
company. A number of provisions of the TBCA and the holding company's charter
documents may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of
control of the holding company.

OFFERING OF DEBENTURES
General
The debentures offered hereby are being sold by the holding company.
The terms of the debentures are described below under "Description of
Convertible Debentures. The determination of the initial conversion price of
$15.00 was based upon the price negotiated with the selling directors in the
transfer agreement.
Subscription
The right to purchase debentures is being extended only to those bank
shareholder who elect to receive all holding company common stock in the
reorganization. If you elect to receive all holding company common stock
pursuant to reorganization and if the reorganization is approved by shareholders
at the annual shareholders' meeting, we will send you a debenture agreement
together with instructions for subscribing for debentures. Thereafter, if you
wish to subscribe for debentures, you must complete and execute the enclosed
debenture agreement and otherwise follow the instructions for subscription. The
holding company may elect not to issue any debentures and finance the cash
requirements of such stock transfer and the reorganization through corporate
borrowings.
At that time, you must also tender the entire amount of your payment
for their debentures at the time of execution and delivery of the debenture
agreement by check payable to the holding company or by delivery to the holding
company of other funds representing payment for such subscription.
We anticipate that the debenture offering will expire at 5:00 p.m.
local time on November 14, 2000. The holding company may shorten or extend the
debenture offering period without notice. After the holding company receives a
properly completed and executed debenture agreement, it will return to you an
executed debenture.
Use of Proceeds
We will use the proceeds from the sale of the debentures and bank
borrowings, if necessary, to provide the cash needed to complete the stock
purchase transaction provided for in the transfer agreement and the
reorganization provided for in the reorganization agreement.
DESCRIPTION OF CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES
We will issue the debentures under debenture agreements between the
holding company and subscribers for the debentures. The terms and conditions
applicable to the debentures will be contained in the debenture agreements. The
following summarizes the material provisions of the debentures and the debenture
agreements. Prospective buyers of the debentures should refer to the actual
terms of the debentures and the form of debenture agreements for the definitive
terms and conditions. Copies of the proposed forms of debentures and debenture
agreement are attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as Annex D.
-------
General
We are offering the debentures only to those shareholders who elect to
exchange all of their bank stock for holding company common stock pursuant to
the reorganization. The debentures are being offered to such shareholders, pro
rata, based upon the percentage of the holding company common stock they will
own (which will be more than the percentage of bank stock they currently own).
If such shareholders do not subscribe to purchase all of their pro rata part of
the debentures, any unsubscribed for debentures will be allocated among the
shareholders who subscribed for their full pro rata portion of the debentures.
This is called an over subscription right. Such allocation will be determined by
the holding company in its sole discretion. Certain of the continuing directors
have indicated that they currently intend to purchase at least their pro rata
portion of the debentures and unsubscribed for debentures.
The total principal amount of the debentures will be limited to
$2,500,000. The debentures represent our general unsecured obligations and are
subordinate in right of payment to our senior debt as described under "--
Subordination" below. We will issue the debentures in fully registered form
only, without coupons, in denominations of $1,000 each and any integral multiple
of $1,000. The debentures will mature beginning on December 31, 2006 unless
converted, redeemed or repurchased before the maturity date. See "-Conversion,"
"--Optional Redemption by Us" and "--Repurchase at Option of Holder" below.
The debentures will accrue interest at an annual rate of 9.5%. We will
pay the first interest payment on March 15th, 2001, and quarterly after that
date on the 15/th/ day of
99
<PAGE>
June, September, December, March. We will also pay all accrued interest upon
maturity, conversion, redemption and repurchase of the debentures. Interest will
be payable to the person in whose name the debenture is registered at the close
of business on the regular record date for the interest installment, which is
the 15th day of the calendar month preceding each interest payment date. If any
payment date falls on a day that is not a business day, we will make the payment
on the next business day and we will not pay any additional interest. We will
generally make all interest payments on the debentures by check mailed to the
holders entitled to the interest. Whenever interest is paid, the payment will
include interest accrued to, but excluding, the interest payment date or the
date of redemption, conversion, repurchase or maturity. We will compute interest
on the debentures on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of 12 30-day months.
The debentures will have no sinking fund. A sinking fund is a custodial
or similar account into which regularly scheduled deposits are made for purposes
of funding the redemption or repurchase of the principal amount of the
debentures.
The holder of any debenture may present such debenture for transfer or
exchange at the holding company's main office. The holding company will maintain
a registry for the debentures. We will not charge any fee for registration,
transfer or exchange of any debentures. We may request reimbursement for taxes
incurred by us in connection with any registration, transfer or exchange of
debentures. We are not required to register the transfer or exchange of any
debenture that has been previously surrendered for repurchase, conversion or
redemption.
Conversion
You may convert your debenture, in whole or in part, into our common
stock at a conversion price equal to $15.00 principal amount of debentures for
each share of common stock, subject to adjustment as described below. You may
convert your debenture at any time before the close of business on December 31,
2006. If we call the debentures for redemption or you submit the debentures for
repurchase, your conversion rights will expire at the close of business on the
redemption date.
You may exercise the right to convert your debentures in denominations
of integral multiples of $1,000 by delivering your debentures to the holding
company's head office accompanied by a written notice that you elect to convert
your debentures. If the date of conversion occurs after a regular record date,
but before the next interest payment date, and we have not called the debentures
for redemption, we will pay you the interest due on the next interest payment
date, regardless of the conversion, but only interest to the date of conversion.
If the principal amount you wish to convert is not evenly divisible by the
conversion price, instead of issuing a fractional share, we will pay you a cash
adjustment in an amount equal to the same fraction of the conversion price per
share of bank stock.
If you present a debenture for conversion, you will not be required to
pay any taxes or duties relating to the issuance of our common stock (except to
the extent relating to exchange or currency control matters or the status of the
person converting the debentures), but you will be required to pay any tax or
duty resulting from the issuance of holding company common stock in the name of
any other person.
The conversion price may be adjusted upon certain events including:
. our issuing common stock or other capital stock as a dividend or
distribution to the holders of our common stock;
. our dividing or combining our outstanding shares of holding company
common stock into a different number of shares;
. our issuing common stock as a result of reclassification of our
common stock; and
. subject to certain exceptions, our fixing a record date for making a
rights offering to our shareholders.
In the event of prepayment of the debenture or upon our consolidation,
merger or combination with or into another entity or a sale or conveyance to
another person of our
100
<PAGE>
property and assets as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, you will be
entitled to convert your debentures into holding company common stock prior to
such event, even if such event occurs after December 31, 2006.
You may, in certain circumstances, be deemed to have received a
distribution or dividend subject to U. S. income tax as a result of an
adjustment (or the nonoccurrence of an adjustment) to the conversion price of
your debentures. See "--Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations
related to the Convertible Debentures."
Unless the adjustment in the conversion price requires an increase or
decrease of at least $.01 per share, we will not be required to make any
adjustments in the conversion price. Any adjustment not made will be taken into
account in subsequent adjustments.
Optional Redemption By Us
On or after December 15, 2002, we may elect to redeem the debentures.
We will not be allowed to redeem the debentures before December 15, 2002. We
will provide the holders of the debentures at least 30 days' notice of our
intent to redeem the debentures.
The redemption price for the debentures will be the principal amount of
the debenture plus all accrued but unpaid dividends through the redemption date.
If an interest payment date occurs before the redemption date, the interest
payable on such interest payment date will be paid to the holder of record as of
the relevant record date. Interest not so paid will be paid to the party to whom
the redemption price is paid.
Subordination
All payments under the debentures are subordinate and junior to the
prior payment in full of all senior debt. The subordination provisions apply to
existing senior debt as well as senior debt incurred after the date of this
proxy statement/prospectus.
Upon any distribution of our assets, dissolution, winding up,
liquidation or reorganization of us, the payments on the debentures will be
subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all senior
debt. Moreover, if the debentures are accelerated following an event of default,
the holders of any senior debt then outstanding will be entitled to payment in
full before the holders of the debentures are entitled to receive any payment on
the debentures. However, our obligations to make payments with respect to the
debentures will not otherwise be affected. We are the sole obligor on the
debentures.
The subordination provisions of the debenture agreements and the
debentures will not prevent the occurrence of any default or event of default or
limit the rights of any holder of debentures to pursue any other rights or
remedies with respect to the debentures.
As a result of the subordination provisions, in the event of the
liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or similar
proceedings, holders of the debentures may receive less than other creditors (on
a ratable basis).
Events of Default and Remedies
The following events are included as "events of default" in the
debenture agreements:
. our failure to pay interest on the debentures when due if the
failure continues for 180 days;
. our failure to pay the principal of, or premium, if any, on any of
the debentures when due; and
. certain events involving bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of
us.
If an event of default has occurred and is continuing, any holder of
the debentures, may declare all amounts outstanding on the debentures to be
immediately due and payable. If an event of default occurs resulting from the
bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of us, all unpaid principal of an
accrued interest on the outstanding
101
<PAGE>
debentures would become due and payable immediately without any declaration or
other act on the part of the holding company or holders of debentures.
Governing Law
The debenture agreements and the debentures will be governed by the
substantive laws of the State of Texas without regard to its conflict of law
provisions.
Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations Related to the
Convertible Debentures
General. The following is a summary of certain U.S. federal income tax
considerations applicable to U.S. holders of debentures relating to the
purchase, ownership and disposition of the debentures and of holding company
common stock into which debentures may be converted, but is not a complete
analysis of all potential tax considerations. The summary assumes that the
debentures will be treated as "debt" and not "equity" for federal income tax
purposes. This summary is based on laws, regulations, rulings and decisions now
in effect, which may change in the future. It relates only to those of you who
will hold debentures and holding company common stock into which debentures may
be converted as "capital assets" (within the meaning of Section 1221 of the
Internal Revenue Code) and does not address particular tax considerations or
individual circumstances. You may be subject to special tax rules not discussed
in this summary if you are:
. subject to the alernative minimum tax;
. a bank or other financial institution;
. a tax-exempt organization;
. an insurance company;
. a foreign person or entity;
. a broker or dealer in securities or currencies;
. holding debentures as a position in a hedging transaction,
"straddle" or "conversion transaction"; or
. deemed to sell debentures or bank stock under the constructive sale
provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.
This summary discusses the tax considerations applicable to those of
you who are the initial purchasers of the debentures and who purchase the
debentures at their "issue price" as defined in Section 1273 of the Internal
Revenue Code. It does not discuss the tax considerations applicable to
subsequent purchasers of the debentures. The summary does not, therefore,
discuss application of (i) the "market discount" rules of Internal Revenue Code
Sections 1276 to 1278 or (ii) the "bond premium" amortization rules of Internal
Revenue Code Section 171. Moreover, the "original issue discount" rules of
Internal Revenue Code Sections 1271 to 1275 are not generally discussed herein
because debentures are not anticipated to be issued at a discount from their
face value.
We have not sought any ruling from the IRS or an opinion of counsel
with respect to the statements we make and the conclusions we reach in the
following summary, and we are not certain that the IRS will agree with our
statements and conclusions. The IRS may successfully adopt a contrary position.
Our summary does not consider the effect of the federal estate or gift tax laws,
the alternative minimum tax or the tax laws of any applicable foreign, state,
local or other jurisdiction.
Those of you considering the purchase of debentures should consult your
own tax advisors with respect to the application of the U.S. federal income tax
laws to your particular situation as well as any tax consequences arising under
the federal estate or gift tax rules, under the laws of any state, local or
foreign taxing jurisdiction or under any applicable tax treaty.
102
<PAGE>
Taxation of Interest. Interest paid on the debentures will be included
in your income as ordinary income at the time it is treated as received or
accrued, in accordance with your regular method of tax accounting.
Sale, Exchange or Redemption of the Convertible Debenteres. When you
sell or exchange a debenture or a debenture is redeemed, other than in the case
of a conversion (discussed below), you will generally recognize capital gain or
loss equal to the difference between:
. the amount of cash proceeds and the fair market value of any
property received on the sale, exchange or redemption (except to the
extent the amount is attributable to accrued interest income not
previously included in your taxable income, which will be taxable as
ordinary income, or is attributable to accrued interest that was
previously included in income, which amount may be received without
generating further taxable income); and
. your adjusted tax basis in the debenture.
Your adjusted tax basis in a debenture generally will equal the amount
you paid for the debenture. Capital gain or loss will be long-term capital gain
or loss if your holding period for the debenture is more than one year at the
time of sale, exchange or redemption.
Conversion of the Debentures. You will generally not recognize any
income, gain or loss upon conversion of a debenture into holding company common
stock except to the extent that the holding company common stock is considered
attributable to accrued interest not previously included in your taxable income
(which is taxable as ordinary income) or with respect to cash received in lieu
of a fractional share of holding company common stock. Your tax basis in the
holding company common stock received on conversion of a debenture will be the
same as your adjusted tax basis in the debenture at the time of conversion
(reduced by any basis allocable to a fractional share interest), and the holding
period of the holding company common stock will include the holding period of
the converted debenture. However, your tax basis in shares of holding company
common stock considered attributable to any accrued interest generally will
equal the amount of the accrued interest included in income, and the holding
period for such holding company common stock will begin on the date of
conversion. An adjustment of the conversion ratio of the debentures, in some
circumstances, could be treated as a constructive distribution, as discussed
under "Dividends" below.
Cash you receive in lieu of a fractional share of holding company
common stock upon conversion will be treated as payment in exchange for the
fractional share of holding company common stock. Accordingly, cash you receive
in lieu of a fractional share of holding company common stock generally will
result in capital gain or loss (measured by the difference between the cash
received for the fractional share and your adjusted tax basis in the fractional
share).
Dividends. Any dividends paid to you on the holding company common
stock after a conversion generally will be included in your taxable income as
ordinary income to the extent of our current or accumulated earnings and
profits. You may, in certain circumstances, be deemed to have received
constructive distributions if the conversion ratio of the debentures is
adjusted. Adjustments to the conversion ratio made pursuant to a bona fide
reasonable adjustment formula which has the effect of preventing the dilution of
your interest as a holder of the debenture will generally not be considered to
result in a constructive distribution. Certain of the possible adjustments
provided in the debentures (including, without limitation, adjustments in
respect to taxable dividends to our shareholders) will not qualify as being made
pursuant to a bona fide reasonable adjustment formula. If these adjustments are
made, you, as a debenture holder, might be deemed to have received constructive
distributions taxable as dividends even though you have not received any cash or
property as a result of the adjustments. In certain circumstances, the failure
of the debentures to provide for such an adjustment may result in taxable
dividend income to the holders of holding company common stock.
Sale of Holding Company Common Stock. Upon the sale or exchange of
holding company common stock, you will generally recognize capital gain or loss
equal to the difference between:
103
<PAGE>
. the amount of cash and the fair market value of any property you
receive upon the sale or exchange; and
. your adjusted tax basis in the holding company common stock.
Capital gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if your
holding period in holding company common stock is more than one year at the time
of the sale or exchange. Your basis and holding period in holding company common
stock received upon conversion of a debenture are determined as discussed above
under "Conversion of the Debentures."
Information Reporting and Backup Withholding Tax. In general,
information reporting requirements will apply to payments of principal,
redemption premium, if any, interest on a debenture, payments of dividends on
holding company common stock, payments of the proceeds of the sale of a
debenture and payments of the proceeds of the sale of holding company common
stock. A 31% backup withholding tax may apply to some or all of these payments
unless you:
. certify that you are a corporation, or come within certain other
exempt categories of recipients when required to demonstrate this
fact; or
. provide a taxpayer identification number on IRS Form W-9 promptly
when requested, certify as to no loss of exemption from backup
withholding; and
. otherwise comply with applicable requirements of the backup
withholding rules.
Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules from your
payment will be allowed as a credit against your U.S. federal income tax and may
entitle you to a refund, provided that you furnish required information to the
IRS.
The preceding discussion of material U.S. federal income tax
consequences is for general information only and is not tax advice. Accordingly,
you should consult your own tax advisor as to the particular U.S. federal,
state, and local tax consequences of purchasing, holding and disposing of our
debentures and holding company common stock. You should also consult a tax
advisor as to the united states estate and gift tax consequences and the foreign
tax consequences of purchasing, holding and disposing of our debentures and
holding company common stock, as well as the consequences of any proposed change
in applicable laws.

Notes to Interim Financial Statements
(Dollars in Thousands, Except Per Share Amounts)
(Unaudited)
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
------------------------------------------
These interim financial statements are prepared without audit and reflect all
adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly
the financial position of Eagle National Bank (Bank) at June 30, 2000, and its
results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. All such
adjustments are normal and recurring in nature. The accompanying financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions of Form 10-
QSB, as established by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Accordingly, these financial statements do not purport to contain all necessary
financial disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles that
might otherwise be necessary in the circumstances, and should be read in
conjunction with financial statements, and notes thereto, of the Bank for the
year ended December 31, 1999, included elsewhere in this registration statement.
The accounting policies of the Bank conform to generally accepted accounting
principles and practices generally followed within the banking industry. Refer
to the accounting policies of the Bank described in the notes to financial
statements contained in the 1999 financial statements. The Bank has consistently
followed these policies in preparing these interim financial statements.
The Bank provides a full range of banking services to individual and corporate
customers and is subject to competition from other financial institutions. The
Bank is subject to the regulations of certain federal agencies and periodic
examinations by those regulatory authorities.
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 actual future results
could differ. The allowance for loan losses, fair values of financial
instruments, and status of contingencies are particularly subject to change.
Beginning January 1, 2001, a new accounting standard, Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities," will require all derivatives to be recorded at fair
value. Unless designated as hedges, changes in these fair values will be
recorded in the income statement. Fair value changes involving hedges will
generally be recorded by offsetting gains and losses on the hedge and on the
hedged item, even if the fair value of the hedged item is not otherwise
recorded. This standard is not expected to have a material effect but the effect
will depend on derivative holdings when this standard applies.
Some items in prior financial statements have been reclassified to conform to
the current presentation.

2. Statements of Cash Flows
------------------------
The Bank has chosen to report on a net basis its cash receipts and cash payments
for time deposits accepted and repayments of those deposits and loans made to
customers and principal collections on those loans.
The Bank has chosen to report its cash flows by the indirect method. Other
supplemental cash flow information is presented below:

Income taxes $ - $ -

3. Earnings Per Share
------------------
Earnings per share is computed in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per
Share," which requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share
("EPS") for entities with complex capital structures. Basic EPS is based on net
income divided by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the
period. Diluted EPS includes the dilutive effect of stock options granted using
the treasury stock method.
Earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-
average number of shares outstanding for the year. The weighted-average number
of common shares outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share
computations were as follows:

8. Financial Instruments With Off-Balance Sheet Risk
-------------------------------------------------
The Bank is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the
normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These
financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters
of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and
interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet.
The Bank's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other
party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby
letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments.
The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional
obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. At June 30, 2000 and
December 31, 1999, the amounts of these financial instruments were as
follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
June 30, 2000 December 31, 1999
------------- -----------------
<S> <C> <C>
Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk:
Commitments to extend credit $ 15,257 $ 14,287
Standby letters of credit 60 10
-------------- ----------------
$ 15,317 $ 14,297
============== ================
</TABLE>
F-11
<PAGE>
EAGLE NATIONAL BANK
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as
there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments
generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may
require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire
without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily
represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer's credit
worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained if deemed
necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit is based on management's credit
evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts
receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment and income-producing
commercial properties.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to
guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk
involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved
in extending loan facilities to customers.
The Bank does not anticipate any material losses as a result of the commitments
and contingent liabilities.
9. Subsequent Event
----------------
On May 31, 2000, the Bank entered into a "Stock Transfer and Branch Sale
Agreement" (the "Agreement") with ENB Bankshares, Inc. and certain Directors of
the Bank. The Directors, Randy L. Pack, Jon Roy Reid, John M. Yeaman and Thomas
R. Youngblood (collectively referred to as the "Selling Directors"), may be
joined by other shareholders who sign a counterpart of the Agreement. ENB
Bankshares, Inc. is a Texas corporation located in Dallas, Texas formed for the
purpose of becoming a registered bank holding company through the acquisition of
100% of the voting common stock of the Bank.
The Agreement provides for the following two transactions:
. The sale of Bank stock owned by the Selling Directors and other
shareholders who sign a counterpart of the Agreement to ENB Bankshares
for $15.00 per share cash. The Selling Directors collectively own 69,000
shares of Bank stock. The Selling Directors are also aware of other
shareholders (the "Selling Shareholders") of the Bank who may desire to
sell their shares of Bank stock to ENB Bankshares.
. The sale by the Bank of its Park Cities branch to a new bank established
by the Selling Directors in a purchase and assumption transaction in
which the new bank will pay a purchase premium of $500,000 plus the
organization expenses and operating losses associated with the Park
Cities branch. The Bank began operations of the Park Cities branch on
March 27, 2000. The Park Cities branch is a full-service branch facility
located at 6829 Hillcrest, Dallas, Texas 75205.
F-12
<PAGE>
EAGLE NATIONAL BANK
ENB Bankshares and the Bank have entered into an Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization (the "Reorganization Plan"). As a result of the reorganization,
the Bank will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of ENB Bankshares. The Bank will
continue to operate from its current location. However, pursuant to the
Agreement, the Bank will no longer own the Park Cities branch and the Selling
Directors will no longer be directors or employees of the Bank.
The Reorganization Plan provides that each shareholder of the Bank (other than
the Selling Directors and other shareholders who have signed the Agreement) may
choose to receive one share of ENB Bankshares stock or $15.00 cash for each
share of Bank stock they own. The Selling Directors have agreed to cause the new
bank to provide Bank shareholders who elect to receive cash in the
reorganization the right to subscribe for shares of stock of the new bank that
will own the Park Cities branch at the initial offering price.
To provide the funds for the cash portion of the transaction, ENB Bankshares is
offering for sale up to $2,500,000 of 9.5% fixed-rate debentures. The debentures
are payable in five equal installments, each being 20% of the original principal
amount of the debentures. The proposed payments will begin on December 31, 2006
and continue until December 31, 2010. The debentures are convertible, at any
time at the option of the owner until December 31, 2006, into shares of ENB
Bankshares bank stock at $15.00 per share. In the event that ENB Bankshares is
unable to sell enough debentures to provide the entire cash requirements of the
transaction, ENB Bankshares has obtained a loan commitment letter from another
financial institution providing for a loan of $1,650,000. The loan is payable
over 10 years and will bear interest at floating Wall Street Journal prime rate.
The loan will be secured by a security interest in all of the Bank stock owned
by ENB Bankshares.
ENB Bankshares will not incur indebtedness (either in the form of debentures or
the loan) of more than $2,500,000. If the cash requirements of the transaction
are more than $2,500,000 the holding company will
. first, request permission from the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas to
increase the maximum amount of indebtedness,
. second, request that all debenture holders convert debentures into
holding company stock in an amount sufficient to enable the holding
company to satisfy its debt commitment, and
. third, seek additional equity from investors in a private offering.
The Agreement and Reorganization Plan are subject to regulatory and shareholder
approval. Assuming the appropriate aprovals are received, the Bank expects to
complete the stock transfer, the breach sale and the reorganization at the same
time in the fourth quarter of 2000

Independent Auditors' Report
----------------------------
The Board of Directors
Eagle National Bank
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Eagle National Bank as of
December 31, 1999 and 1998 and the related statements of operations, changes in
stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1999 and
1998 and the period from February 28, 1997 (Inception) through December 31,
1997. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Bank's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Eagle National Bank as of
December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the results of its operations and cash flows for
the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 and the period from February 28, 1997
(Inception) through December 31, 1997 in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

Notes to Financial Statements
As of and for the Years Ended December 31,
1999 and 1998 and the Period from February 28,
1997 (Inception) Through December 31, 1997
(Dollars in Thousands, Except Per Share Amounts)
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
------------------------------------------
Basis of Presentation
---------------------
The accounting policies of Eagle National Bank (Bank) conform to generally
accepted accounting principles and practices generally followed within the
banking industry. The following are descriptions of the more significant of
these policies.
The Bank commenced operations on February 28, 1997. The excess of expenses
incurred over income earned prior to February 28, 1997, of $468 were recorded as
accumulated deficit. Such pre-opening expenses consist primarily of personnel,
occupancy, legal and marketing costs, net of interest income.
The Bank provides a full range of banking services to individual and corporate
customers and is subject to competition from other financial institutions. The
Bank is subject to the regulations of certain federal agencies and periodic
examinations by those regulatory authorities.
Use of Estimates
----------------
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.
Accordingly, 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 loan losses and
valuation of other real estate owned. In connection with the determination of
the allowance for loan losses and valuation of other real estate owned,
management normally obtains independent appraisals for significant properties.
A significant portion of the Bank's loans are secured by real estate and related
assets located in local markets. Accordingly, the ultimate collectibility of
this portion of the Bank's loan portfolio is susceptible to changes in local
market conditions.
F-19
<PAGE>
EAGLE NATIONAL BANK
Cash and Cash Equivalents
-------------------------
For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on
hand, amounts due from banks, federal funds sold and interest bearing deposits
at other banks. All highly liquid investments with an initial maturity of less
than ninety days are considered to be cash equivalents.
Securities Available For Sale
-----------------------------
Available for sale securities consist of certain equity securities not
classified as trading securities nor as held to maturity securities. Available
for sale securities are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses
reported in other comprehensive income.
Gains and losses on the sale of available for sale securities are all recorded
on the trade date and are determined using the specific identification method.
Premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest
method over the period to maturity.
Declines in the fair value of individual held to maturity and available for sale
securities below their cost that are other than temporary, if any, would result
in write-downs of the individual securities to their fair value. The related
write-downs, if any, would be included in earnings as realized losses.
Securities Held to Maturity
---------------------------
Bonds and notes for which the Bank has the positive intent and ability to hold
to maturity are reported at cost, adjusted for premiums and discounts that are
recognized in interest income using the interest method over the period to
maturity.
Loans
-----
Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable
future or until maturity or pay-off are reported at their outstanding principal
adjusted for any charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, and any deferred
fees or costs on originated loans and unamortized premiums or discounts on
purchased loans.
Interest income on loans is reported on the level-yield method and includes
amortization of net deferred loan fees over the loan term. Net costs associated
with originating loans are recognized in a manner that is not materially
different than the level-yield method.
F-20
<PAGE>
EAGLE NATIONAL BANK
The accrual of interest on commercial and real estate loans is discontinued at
the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the credit is well-secured and in
process of collection. Other personal loans are typically charged-off no later
than 180 days past due. All interest accrued but not charged-off is reversed
against interest income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the
cash basis until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual
status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought
current and future payments are reasonably assured.
A loan is considered to be impaired if, based on current information and events,
management believes it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect all
amounts due, both interest and principal, according to the contractual terms of
the loan agreement. Impairment is evaluated in total for smaller-balance loans
of similar nature such as residential mortgage and consumer loans and on an
individual loan basis for other loans. An allowance for credit losses related to
impaired loans, if any, is determined based on the present value of expected
cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, or the loan's
observable market price, or the fair value of collateral if the loan is
collateral dependent. Interest revenue received on impaired loans continues to
be either applied against principal or realized as interest revenue, according
to management's judgment as to the collectibility of principal.
Allowance for Loan Losses
-------------------------
The allowance for loan losses is a reserve established through a provision for
loan losses charged to expense which represents management's best estimate of
probable losses that have been incurred within the existing portfolio of loans.
The allowance, in the judgment of management, is necessary to reserve for known
loan losses and risks inherent in the loan portfolio. While management utilizes
its best judgment and information available, the ultimate adequacy of the
allowance is dependent upon a variety of factors, including the performance of
the bank's loan portfolio, the economy, changes in real estate values and
interest rates and the view of the regulatory authorities toward loan
classifications.
Management estimates the allowance balance required, in part, by review of the
loan portfolio to evaluate potential problem loans. Potential problem loans are
classified and separately monitored by management. Loans classified as "special
mention" are those that contain a weakness that, if left unattended, could
develop into a problem affecting the ultimate collectibility of the loan. Loans
classified as "substandard" are those loans with clear and defined weaknesses
such as highly leveraged positions, unfavorable financial ratios, uncertain
repayment sources or poor financial condition, which may jeopardize
recoverability of the loan. Loans classified as "doubtful" are those loans that
have characteristics similar to substandard loans, but also have an increased
risk that a loss may occur or at least a portion of the loan may require a
charge-off if liquidated at present. Although loans classified as substandard do
not duplicate loans classified as doubtful, both substandard and doubtful loans
may include some loans that are past due at least 90 days, are on nonaccrual
status or have been restructured. Loans classified as "loss" are those loans
that are in the process of being charged off.
Loan impairment is reported when full payment under the loan terms is not
expected. Loans are evaluated for impairment when payments are delayed,
typically 90 days or more, or when analysis of a borrower's operating results
and financial condition indicates the borrower's underlying cash flows are not
adequate to meet debt service requirements and it is probable that not all
principal and interest amounts will be collected according to the original terms
of the loan. Impairment is evaluated in total for smaller-balance loans of
similar nature such as residential mortgage and consumer loans and on an
individual loan basis for other loans. If a loan is impaired, a portion of the
allowance is allocated so that the loan is reported, net, at the present value
of estimated future cash flows using the loan's existing rate or at the fair
value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral.
Impaired loans, or portions thereof, are charged off when deemed uncollectible.
F-21
<PAGE>
EAGLE NATIONAL BANK
In addition to allocations made for specific classified loans, general reserve
allocations are made after consideration of such factors as past loan loss
experience, general prevailing economic conditions, the nature, composition and
volume of the loan portfolio, and other qualitative factors based on
management's judgment.
While portions of allowance may be allocated for specific credits, the entire
allowance is available for any credit that, in management's judgment, should be
charged-off.
Bank Premises and Equipment
---------------------------
Land is carried at cost. Bank premises, furniture and equipment are carried at
cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization computed principally by the
straight-line method.
Income Taxes
------------
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected at currently enacted income
tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets and
liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or
rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the
provision for income taxes.
Fair Values of Financial Instruments
------------------------------------
Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using relevant market
information and other assumptions. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties
and matters of significant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk,
prepayments, and other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for
particular items. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could
significantly affect the estimates. The fair value estimates of existing on- and
off-balance sheet financial instruments do not include the value of anticipated
future business or the value of assets and liabilities not considered financial
instruments.
Financial Instruments With Off-Balance Sheet Risk
-------------------------------------------------
In the ordinary course of business the Bank has entered into off-balance-sheet
financial instruments consisting of commitments to extend credit and standby
letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded in the financial
statements when they are funded.
Comprehensive Income
--------------------
The Bank adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130,
"Reporting Comprehensive Income", as of January 1, 1998. Generally accepted
accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains
and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and
liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available for sale
securities, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the
balance sheet, changes in such items, along with net income, are components of
comprehensive income. The adoption of SFAS No. 130 had no effect on the Bank's
net income or shareholders' equity.
Reclassification
----------------
Certain amounts previously reported have been reclassified to conform to the
current format.

EAGLE NATIONAL BANK
2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
--------------------------------
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", as amended by SFAS No. 137,
which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments
and hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as
either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments
at fair value. Management does not believe the pronouncement will have a
significant effect on its operations. Adoption of SFAS No. 133 will be required
for the Bank during the year ended December 31, 2001.
3. Earnings Per Share
------------------
Earnings per share is computed in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per
Share", which requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share
("EPS") for entities with complex capital structures. Basic EPS is based on net
income divided by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the
period. Diluted EPS includes the dilutive effect of stock options granted using
the treasury stock method.
Earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-
average number of shares outstanding for the year. The weighted-average number
of common shares outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share
computations were as follows:

11. Employee Benefits
In 1998, the Bank implemented a 401(k) savings plan (Plan) which covers all
eligible employees. Under the Plan, the Bank matches 50% of voluntary
contributions of eligible employees up to 4% of eligible compensation. The Bank
contributed $24 and $11 to the Plan during 1999 and 1998.
The Bank has a nonqualified stock option plan covering certain executive
officers. Under the provisions of the plan, 40,000 shares were allocated for
grant. Options granted under the plan vest and become fully exercisable based on
a vesting schedule as determined on the date of grant by an oversight committee
assigned by the Bank's Board of Directors. Under the stock option plan, options
are exercisable during the lifetime of the officer, unless otherwise provided by
the Board of Directors. The exercise price of the options granted is equal to
the estimated fair market value of the stock, as determined by the Board of
Directors, on the date of grant. In 1997, Bank granted options to purchase
15,000 shares at an exercise price of $10.00 per share. The options were
immediately vested, however, as of December 31, 1999, none of the options have
been exercised. As of December 31, 1999, there were 15,000 options outstanding,
all of which were exercisable, and 25,000 options available for grant under the
plan.
No compensation expense was recorded in 1999, 1998 or 1997 as a result of the
stock options. The Bank applies Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25
in accounting for its stock option plan. The fair value of options granted in
1997 was not significant. Had compensation cost been determined on the basis of
fair value pursuant to SFAS 123, the pro forma impact on net income for 1999,
1998 or 1997 would not be materially different.

12. Financial Instruments With Off-Balance Sheet Risk
-------------------------------------------------
The Bank is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the
normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These
financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters
of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and
interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet.
The Bank's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other
party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby
letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments.
The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional
obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. At December 31, 1999
and 1998, the amounts of these financial instruments were as follows:
1999 1998
---- ----
Financial instruments whose
contract amounts
represent credit risk:
Commitments to extend credit $ 14,287 $ 8,990
Standby letters of credit 10 1
-------- ---------
$ 14,297 $ 8,991
======== =========
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as
there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments
generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may
require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire
without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily
represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer's credit
worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained if deemed
necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit is based on management's credit
evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts
receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment and income-producing
commercial properties.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to
guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk
involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved
in extending loan facilities to customers.
The Bank does not anticipate any material losses as a result of the commitments
and contingent liabilities.

13. Related Party Transactions
--------------------------
In the ordinary course of business, the Bank has and expects to continue to have
transactions including borrowings with its employees, directors and their
affiliates. In the opinion of management, such transactions are on the same
terms, including interest rates and collateral requirements, as those prevailing
at the time for comparable transactions with unaffiliated persons. The aggregate
amount of such loans was $2,355 and $1,800 at December 31, 1999 and 1998. During
1999, new loans funded totaled $2,210 and repayments totaled $1,655.
14. Commitments and Contingencies
-----------------------------
The Bank leases a branch facility under a noncancellable operating lease
agreement. This lease agreement expires in December 2004 and requires monthly
payments of $6.
Future minimum rental payments under the noncancellable operating lease
agreement for each of the net five years and thereafter are as follows:
Year Amount
---- ------
2000 $ 72
2001 72
2002 72
2003 72
2004 72
---------------
$ 360
===============
15. Significant Group Concentrations of Credit Risk
-----------------------------------------------
The Bank's loans, commitments and standby letters of credit have generally been
granted to customers in the Bank's market area. Such customers are normally also
depositors of the Bank. The concentrations of credit by type of loan are set
forth in Note 6. Generally these loans are collateralized and are expected to be
repaid from cash flow or proceeds from sale of selected assets of the borrowers.
Standby letters of credit are granted primarily to commercial borrowers.

16. Regulatory Matters
------------------
Under banking law, there are legal restrictions limiting the amount of dividends
Banks can declare. Approval of the regulatory authorities is required if the
effect of dividends declared would cause the regulatory capital of the Bank to
fall below specified minimum levels.
The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by
banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate
certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators
that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Bank's financial
statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for
prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that
involve quantitative measures of the Bank's assets, liabilities, and certain
off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The
Bank's capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative
judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other
factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy
require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table
below) of total and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk
weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier I capital (as defined) to average
assets (as defined). Management believes the Bank met all capital adequacy
requirements to which it was subject as of December 31, 1999 and 1998.
As of December 31, 1999 and 1998, the Bank met the level of capital required to
be categorized as was "well capitalized" under the regulatory framework for
prompt corrective action. To be categorized as "well capitalized" the Bank must
maintain minimum total risk based, Tier I risk based, and Tier I leverage ratios
as set forth in the table. Management is not aware of any conditions or events
subsequent to December 31, 1999 that would change the Bank's capital category.
The Bank's actual capital amounts and ratios are presented in the following
table.

17. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
-----------------------------------
The estimated fair value approximates carrying value for financial instruments
except those described below:
Securities: Fair values for securities are based on quoted market prices or
----------
dealer quotes. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is
estimated using quoted market prices for similar instruments.
Loans: The fair value of fixed-rate loans and variable-rate loans which reprice
-----
on an infrequent basis is estimated by discounting future cash flows using the
current interest rates at which similar loans with similar terms would be made
to borrowers of similar credit quality.
Deposits: The fair value of deposit liabilities with defined maturities is
--------
estimated by discounting future cash flows using the interest rates currently
offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
Off-Balance-Sheet Instruments: The fair values of these items are not material
-----------------------------
and are therefore not included on the following schedule.
The estimated year-end fair values of financial instruments were as follows:

18. Subsequent Event
----------------
On May 31, 2000, the Bank entered into a "Stock Transfer and Branch Sale
Agreement" (the "Agreement") with ENB Bankshares, Inc. and certain Directors of
the Bank. The Directors, Randy L. Pack, Jon Roy Reid, John M. Yeaman and Thomas
R. Youngblood (collectively referred to as the "Selling Directors"), may be
joined by other shareholders who sign a counterpart of the Agreement. ENB
Bankshares, Inc. is a Texas corporation located in Dallas, Texas formed for the
purpose of becoming a registered bank holding company through the acquisition of
100% of the voting common stock of the Bank.
The Agreement provides for the following two transactions:
. The sale of Bank stock owned by the Selling Directors and other
shareholders who sign a counterpart of the Agreement to ENB Bankshares
for $15.00 per share cash. The Selling Directors collectively own
69,000 shares of Bank stock. The Selling
F-34
<PAGE>
Directors are also aware of other shareholders (the "Selling
Shareholders") of the Bank who may desire to sell their shares of Bank
stock to ENB Bankshares.
. The sale by the Bank of its Park Cities branch to a new bank
established by the Selling Directors in a purchase and assumption
transaction in which the new bank will pay a purchase premium of
$500,000 plus the organization expenses and operating losses
associated with the Park Cities branch. The Bank began operations of
the Park Cities branch on March 27, 2000. The Park Cities branch is a
full-service branch facility located at 6829 Hillcrest, Dallas, Texas
75205.
ENB Bankshares and the Bank have entered into an Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization (the "Reorganization Plan"). As a result of the reorganization,
the Bank will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of ENB Bankshares. The Bank will
continue to operate from its current location. However, pursuant to the
Agreement, the Bank will no longer own the Park Cities branch and the Selling
Directors will no longer be directors or employees of the Bank.
The Reorganization Plan provides that each shareholder of the Bank (other than
the Selling Directors and other shareholders who have signed the Agreement) may
choose to receive one share of ENB Bankshares stock or $15.00 cash for each
share of Bank stock they own. The Selling Directors agreed to cause the new bank
to provide Bank shareholders who elect to receive cash in the reorganization the
right to subscribe for shares of stock of the new bank that will own the Park
Cities branch at the initial offering price.
To provide the funds for the cash portion of the transaction, ENB Bankshares is
offering for sale up to $2,500,000 of 9.5% fixed-rate debentures. The debentures
are payable in five equal installments, each being 20% of the original principal
amount of the debentures. The principal payments will begin on December 31, 2006
and continue until December 31, 2010. The debentures are convertible, at any
time at the option of the owner until December 31, 2006, into shares of ENB
Bankshares bank stock at $15.00 per share. In the event that ENB Bankshares is
unable to sell enough debentures to provide the entire cash requirements of the
transaction, ENB Bankshares has obtained a loan commitment letter from another
financial institution providing for a loan of $1,650,000. The loan is payable
over 10 years and bearing interest at floating Wall Street Journal prime rate.
The loan will be secured by a security interest in all of the Bank stock owned
by ENB Bankshares.
ENB Bankshares will not incur indebtedness (either in the form of debentures or
the loan) of more than $2,500,000. If the cash requirements of the transaction
are more than $2,500,000, the holding company will
. first, request permission from the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas to
increase the maximum amount of indebtedness,
. second, request that all debenture holders convert debentures into
holding company stock in an amount sufficient to enable the holding
company to satisfy its debt commitment, and
. third, seek additional equity from investors in a private offering.
The Agreement and the Reorganization Plan are subject to regulatory and
shareholder approval. Assuming the appropriate approvals are received, the Bank
expects to complete the stock transfer, the branch sale and the reorganization
at the same time in the fourth quarter of 2000.

ANNEX B
STATUTES REGARDING DISSENTERS' RIGHTS
(S)215. Consolidation of national banks or State banks with national banks
(a) In general
Any national bank or any bank incorporated under the laws of any State may,
with the approval of the Comptroller, be consolidated with one or more national
banking association located in the same State under the charter of a national
banking association on such terms and conditions as may be lawfully agreed upon
by a majority of the board of directors of each association or bank proposing to
consolidate, and be ratified and confirmed by the affirmative vote of the
shareholders of each such association or bank owning at least two-thirds of its
capital stock outstanding, or by a greater proportion of such capital stock, in
the case of such State bank if the laws of the State where it is organized so
require, at a meeting to be held on the call of the directors after publishing
notice of the time, place and object of the meeting for four consecutive weeks
in a newspaper or general circulation published in the place where the
association or bank is located, or, if there is no such newspaper, then in the
paper of general circulation published nearest thereto, and after sending such
notice to each shareholder of record by certified or registered mail at least
ten days prior to the meeting, except to those shareholders who specifically
waive notice, but any additional notice shall be given to the shareholders of
such State bank which may be required by the laws of the State Comptroller
determines that an emergency exists justifying such waiver, by unanimous action
of the shareholders of the association or State bank.
(b) Liability of consolidated association; capital stock; dissenting
shareholders
The consolidated association shall be liable for all liabilities of the
respective consolidating banks or associations. The capital ' stock of such
consolidated association shall not be less than that required under existing law
for the organization of a national bank in the place in which it is located:
Provided, That if such consolidation shall be voted for at such meetings by the
necessary majorities of the shareholders of each association and State bank
proposing to consolidate, and thereafter the consolidation shall be approved by
the Comptroller, any shareholder of any of the associations or State banks so
consolidated who has voted against such consolidation at the meeting of the
association or bank of which he is a stockholder, or who has given notice in
writing at or prior to such meeting to the presiding officer that he dissents
from the plan of consolidation, shall be entitled to receive the value of the
shares so held by him when such consolidation is approved by the Comptroller
upon written request made to the consolidated association at any time before
thirty days after the date of consummation of the consolidation, accompanied by
the surrender of his stock certificates.
(c) Valuation of shares
The value of the shares of any dissenting shareholder shall be ascertained,
as of the effective date of the consolidation, by an appraisal made by a
committee of three persons, composed of (1) one selected by the vote of the
holders of the majority of the stock, the owners of which are entitled to
payment in cash; (2) one selected by the directors of the consolidated banking
association; and (3) one selected by the two so selected. The valuation agreed
upon by any two of the three appraisers shall govern. If the value so fixed
shall not be satisfactory to any dissenting shareholder who has requested
payment, that shareholder may, within five days after being notified of the
appraised value of his shares, appeal to the Comptroller, who shall cause a
reappraisal to be made which shall be final and binding as to the value of the
shares of the appellant.
(d) Appraisal by Comptroller; expenses of consolidated association; sale and
resale of shares; State appraisal and consolidation law
If, within ninety days from the date of consummation of the consolidation,
for any reason one or more of the appraisers is not selected as herein provided,
or the appraisers fail to determine the value of such shares, the Comptroller
shall upon written request of any interested party cause an appraisal to be made
which shall be final and binding on all parties. The expenses of the Comptroller
in making the reappraisal or the appraisal, as the case may be, shall be paid by
the consolidated banking association. The value of the
B-1
<PAGE>
shares ascertained shall be promptly paid to the dissenting shareholders by the
consolidated banking association. Within thirty days after payment has been made
to all dissenting shareholders as provided for in this section the shares of
stock of the consolidated banking association which would have been delivered to
such dissenting shareholders had they not requested payment shall be sold by the
consolidated banking association at an advertised public auction, unless some
other method of sale is approved by the Comptroller, and the consolidated
banking association shall have the right to purchase any of such shares at such
public auction, if it is the highest bidder therefor, for the purpose of
reselling such shares within thirty days thereafter to such person or persons
and at such price not less than par as its board of directors by resolution may
determine. If the shares are sold at public auction at a price greater than the
amount paid to the dissenting shareholders the excess in such sale price shall
be paid to such shareholders. The appraisal of such shares of stock in any State
bank shall be determined in the manner prescribed by the law of the State in
such cases, rather than as provided in this section, if such provision is made
in the State law; and no such consolidation shall be in contravention of the law
of the State under which such bank is incorporated.
(e) Status of consolidated association; property rights and interests vested
and held as fiduciary
The corporate existence of each of the consolidating banks or banking
associations participating in such consolidation shall be merged into and
continued in the consolidated national banking association and such consolidated
national banking association shall be deemed to be the same corporation as each
bank or banking association participating in the consolidation. All rights,
franchises, and interests of the individual consolidating banks or banking
associations in and to every type of property (real, person. al, and mixed) and
choses in action shall be transferred to and vested in the consolidated national
banking association by virtue of such consolidation without any deed or other
transfer. The consolidated national banking association, upon the consolidation
and without any order or other action on the part of any court or other-wise,
shall hold and enjoy all rights of property, franchises, and interests,
including appointments, designations, and nominations, and all other rights and
interests as trustee, executor, administrator, registrar of stocks and bonds,
guardian of estates, assignee, receiver, and committee of estates of lunatics,
and in every other fiduciary capacity, in the same manner and to the same extent
as such rights, franchises, and interests were held or enjoyed by any one of the
consolidating banks or banking associations at the time of consolidation,
subject to the conditions hereinafter provided.
(f) Removal as fiduciary; discrimination
Where any consolidating bank or banking association, at the time of the
consolidation, was acting under appointment of any court as trustee, executor,
administrator, registrar of stocks and bonds, guardian of estates, assignee,
receiver, or committee of estates of lunatics, or in any other fiduciary
capacity, the consolidated national banking association shall be subject to
removal by a court of competent jurisdiction in the same manner and to the same
extent as was such consolidating bank or banking association prior to the
consolidation. Nothing contained in this section shall be considered to impair
in any manner the right of any court to remove the consolidated national banking
association and to appoint in lieu thereof a substitute trustee, executor, or
other fiduciary, except that such right shall not be exercised in such a manner
as to discriminate against national banking associations, nor shall any
consolidated national banking association be removed solely because of the fact
that it is a national banking association.
(g) Issuance of stock by consolidated association; preemptive rights
Stock of the consolidated national banking association may be issued as
provided by the terms of the consolidation agreement, free from any preemptive
rights of the shareholders of the respective consolidating banks.

FAIRNESS OPINION OF HOEFER & ARNETT INCORPORATED
HOEFER & ARNETT
INCORPORATED
INVESTMENT BANKERS
101 W. SIXTH STREET, SUITE 416
AUSTIN, TEXAS 78701
September 29, 2000
Members of the Board of Directors
Eagle National Bank
5006 Verde Valley Lane
Dallas, TX 75240
Members of the Board:
You have requested our opinion as investment bankers as to the fairness, from a
financial point of view, to all of the shareholders of Eagle National Bank,
Dallas, Texas (the "Bank") of the $15.00 per share cash purchase price to be
paid by ENB Bankshares, Inc., Dallas, Texas (the "Company") for less than 30% of
the outstanding common stock of the Bank. In addition, you have requested our
opinion as investment bankers as to the fairness, from a financial point of
view, to all of the shareholders of the Bank of the proposed transfer of the
Park Cities Branch to certain selling shareholders of the Bank for $500,000 plus
certain other adjustments as described in detail in the transfer agreement (the
"Agreement").
As part of its investment banking business, Hoefer & Arnett, Incorporated is
continually engaged in the valuation of bank, bank holding company and thrift
securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions nationwide. We have not
previously provided investment banking and financial advisory services to the
Bank.
In arriving at our opinion, we have reviewed and analyzed, among other things,
the following: (1) December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1999 audited financial
statements for the Bank, (II') Quarterly FDIC Call reports for the quarters
ended June 30, 1999, September 30, 1999, December 31, 1999 and June 30, 2000 for
the Bank; (iii) certain other publicly available financial and other information
concerning the Bank; (iv) publicly available information concerning other banks
and holding companies, the trading markets for their securities and the nature
and terms of certain other stock offerings we believe relevant to our inquiry.
We have held discussions with senior management of the Bank concerning its past
and current operations, financial condition and prospects, as well as the
results of regulatory examinations.
We have reviewed with senior management of the Bank earning projections for 2000
through 2004 for the Bank as a stand-alone entity, prepared by the Bank. Certain
pro forma financial projections for the years 2000 through 2004 for the pro
forma entity were derived by us based partially upon the projections discussed
above, as well as our own assessment of general economic, market and financial
conditions.
In conducting our review and in arriving at our opinion, we have relied upon and
assumed the accuracy and completeness of the financial and other information
provided to us or publicly available, and we have not assumed any responsibility
for independent verification of the same. We have relied upon the management of
the Bank as to the reasonableness of the financial and operating forecasts and
projections (and the assumptions and bases therefor) provided to us, and we have
assumed that such forecasts and projections reflect the best currently available
estimates and judgments of management. We have also assumed, without assuming
any responsibility for the independent verification of the same, that the
allowance for loan losses for the Bank is adequate to cover such losses. We have
not made or obtained any evaluations or appraisals of the property of the Bank,
nor have we examined any individual loan credit files. Our opinion as expressed
herein is limited to the fairness, from a financial point of view, to all of the
holders of the common shares of the Bank with respect to the sale of less than
30% of
C-1
<PAGE>
the common shares of the Bank to the Company at $15.00 per share and the
transfer of the Park Cities Branch to such selling shareholders of the Bank for
$500,000 plus certain adjustments and does not address the Bank's underlying
business decision to proceed with the proposed transaction.
We have considered such financial and other factors as we have deemed
appropriate under the circumstances, including among others the following: (i)
the historical and current financial position and results of operations of the
Bank, including interest income, interest expense, net interest income, net
interest margin, provision for loan losses, noninterest income, noninterest
expense, earnings, dividends, internal capital generation, book value,
intangible assets, return on assets, return on shareholders' equity,
capitalization, the amount and type of nonperforming assets, loan losses and the
reserve for loan losses, all as set forth in the financial statements for the
Bank; (ii) the assets and liabilities of the Bank, including the loan,
investment and mortgage portfolios, deposits, other liabilities, historical and
current liability sources and costs and liquidity; and (iii) publicly available
information concerning other banks and holding companies, the trading markets
for their securities and the nature and terms of certain other stock offerings
we believe relevant to our inquiry. We have also taken into account our
assessment of general economic, market and financial conditions and our
experience in securities valuation and our knowledge of the banking industry
generally. Our opinion is necessarily based upon conditions as they exist and
can be evaluated on the date hereof and the information made available to us
through the date hereof.
Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion as investment
bankers that, as of the date hereof, the terms of the proposed stock transfer
and branch sale as previously described is fair, from a financial point of view,
to all of the holders of the common shares of the Bank.
Our opinion is directed to the Board of Directors of the Bank for its
information and assistance in connection with its consideration of the financial
terms of the transaction contemplated by the Agreement and does not constitute a
recommendation to the Board of Directors or to any shareholder of the Bank with
respect to any approval of the proposed transaction. We hereby consent to the
reference to our firm in the proxy statement or prospectus related to the
proposed transaction and to the inclusion of our opinion as an exhibit to the
proxy statement or prospectus related to the proposed transaction.
Respectfully Submitted,

ARTICLE II
TRANSFERS
---------
2.01 Requirements of Transfer. No transfer of the Debenture shall be valid
------------------------

his intent to transfer ownership, delivers such Debenture to the Company along
with transfer instructions, and such change of ownership is recorded in the
Company's debenture records.
2.02 Registration of Transfer. Transfer of the Debenture shall be
------------------------
registered upon the Company's debenture records following the Company's receipt
of such Debenture, (properly endorsed or accompanied by a notarized separate
power of attorney indicating intent to transfer ownership), and receipt of

honor the transfer, and, in such case, the effective date of transfer shall be
the first date at which the Company is in receipt of all of the items required
by Section 2.02 hereof.

which agreement shall be signed by the Company and transferee, and its
provisions shall be identical to those of this Debenture Agreement except for
the Debenture Holder's name and the date of execution, which date will be the
same as the effective transfer date. Such new Debenture certificate and
Debenture Agreement will be mailed or delivered by other reasonable means to
transferee. In the event transferee's signature is not obtained on the new
Debenture Agreement, transferee's signature on the instructions of transfer will
be deemed to constitute transferee's assent to the terms of the Debenture and of
the Debenture Agreement.

except upon the occurrence of an event identified in Sections 5.03(a) and

all as subject to adjustment as provided in Section 5.03(d).
5.02 Manner of Exercise. To exercise the conversion, the Debenture Holder
------------------
must surrender to the Company the Debenture along with the attached Form of
Conversion duly executed by him.
5.03 Other Provisions Regarding Convertibility. The following provisions
-----------------------------------------
shall also apply to the convertibility of the Debenture:
(a) If the Debenture is called for prepayment, it may be converted into

up, spin off, liquidation, sale of substantially all of the assets
of the Company, or any other business combination or acquisition to
which the Company may be a party, the Company shall give written
notice of such event to the Debenture Holder. Upon receipt of such
notice, the Debenture may be converted into shares of common stock
of the Company at any time within thirty days of such notice. If
this Debenture is not so converted, the Debenture Holder shall have
no further conversion rights into the Company's common stock.

class of shares and the conversion price so as to reflect such
change. Any such computation shall be rounded down to the nearest
whole share and no such modification shall require the issuance of
fractional shares.
(e) The shares of Common Stock into which the Debenture may be
converted shall only be issued to the Debenture Holder, and the
Debenture Holder shall not be entitled to any rights or privileges

(f) If the Debenture Holder shall exercise his option to convert the
Debenture into shares of common stock, the Company shall promptly

of the Debenture.
(h) The Company further covenants that, in the event the Debenture
Holder converts the Debenture into shares of common stock, all
shares of common stock which shall be issued to the Debenture
Holder shall be, when issued, duly and validly issued and fully
paid and nonassessable.

consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other corporation, or
any conveyance of the business, assets and properties of the Company as a whole
or substantially as a whole, to any other corporation or other entity, provided,
that all terms and conditions of this Debenture Agreement, including payment, to
be observed and performed by the Company shall be expressly assumed by the
successor entity formed by or resulting from any such merger or consolidation,
or to which any such conveyance shall have been made.
6.02 Rights of Successor Company. In the event the Company or any

terms and conditions of this Debenture Agreement, each and every power,
authority and right herein reserved to or conferred upon the Company.
6.03 Construction. For every purpose of this Debenture Agreement,
------------
including the execution, issue and use of Debentures, the term the "Company"
includes and means (unless the context otherwise requires) not only the
corporation which has executed this Debenture Agreement, but also any such
successor entity in accordance with the provisions of this Article VI.
ARTICLE VII
DEFAULT
-------
7.01 Event of Default. As used in this Debenture Agreement and the
----------------
Debenture, the term "event of default" shall mean any one of the following:

interest of the Debenture and make demand on the Company for payment in full.
ARTICLE VIII
DEFEASANCE
----------
If, when the accompanying Debenture shall have become due and payable
(whether by elapse of time or by declaration by the exercise of the right to
accelerate as provided in Article VII hereof), the Company shall pay, or cause
to be paid, the whole amount of the principal monies and interest due upon the

No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of the Debenture

waived and released by Debenture Holder and by any subsequent owners of the
Debenture.
ARTICLE X
SUBORDINATION
-------------
The payment of principal and interest on this Debenture is subordinated in
right of payment to the prior payment in full of all senior indebtedness of the
Company, whether outstanding on this date or thereafter. Senior indebtedness is
defined as the principal of, and premium and interest on, indebtedness of the
Company for money borrowed from person, firms or corporations that regularly
engage in the business of lending money. In the event of any insolvency,
bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, or any other marshaling of the assets and

payment on account of principal or interest.

------------
this Debenture Agreement shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or

shall not affect any other provisions hereof and this Debenture Agreement shall
be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions had never
been contained herein.
11.05 Entire Debenture Agreement. This Debenture Agreement and the

--------------------
holder hereof, whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether written or

whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity hereof or
otherwise, shall the amount paid, or agreed to be paid, to the holder hereof for
the use, forbearance, or detention of the money loaned hereunder or otherwise or
for the payment or performance of any covenant or obligations contained herein
or in any document evidencing, securing or pertaining to the indebtedness
evidenced hereby, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law.
If, from any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof or

the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity,
and if from any such circumstance the holder hereof should ever receive any
amount deemed interest by applicable law which shall exceed the highest lawful
rate, such amount which would be excessive interest shall be characterized as
