On November 1, 2000, Comerica Incorporated issued the following press release:

       COMERICA INCORPORATED TO ACQUIRE IMPERIAL BANCORP IN $1.3 BILLION
                                  TRANSACTION

DETROIT and LOS ANGELES, Nov. 1 /PRNewswire/ -- Comerica Incorporated (NYSE:
CMA) and Imperial Bancorp (NYSE: IMP) today announced that their boards of
directors have unanimously approved a definitive agreement for a tax-free,
stock-for-stock acquisition by Comerica of Imperial Bancorp, a $7.4 billion
banking company headquartered in Los Angeles, CA.

The transaction will create the fourth largest banking company in California and
the 19th largest nationally, both based on assets. The combination brings
together two companies that are highly focused on middle- market, small
business, emerging growth markets, title and escrow deposits and entertainment
lending in California and nationally. It joins Imperial's growth record with the
solid growth, financial discipline and strong credit culture of Comerica.

Shareholders of Imperial will receive approximately 21 million shares of
Comerica common stock under a 0.46 fixed exchange ratio. Upon closing, Imperial
shareholders will own approximately 12 percent of the combined company. The
current value of the transaction is approximately $1.3 billion, or 2.4 times
book value and 14.8 times First Call consensus 2001 estimated earnings, based on
Comerica's closing price of $60.31 on Tuesday, October 31, 2000. It represents a
premium of 14 percent of Imperial's closing share price yesterday.

The transaction is expected to be accounted for as a pooling of interests. It is
expected to be neutral to earnings per share in 2001, exclusive of one- time,
pre-tax, merger-related and restructuring charges estimated to be $145 million,
and approximately 5 percent accretive to earnings per share in 2002. Comerica
said its estimates of accretion do not include assumptions of either revenue
synergies or reinvested capital.

The in-market combination is expected to generate cost savings by eliminating
duplicative and other administrative costs. Comerica plans to reduce expenses by
about 20 percent of Imperial's expense base over a period of two years.
"Comerica's goal is to increase and enhance shareholder value by growing
earnings at double-digit annual rates. Our strategy is to build on our
leadership position in middle-market business lending, our longstanding
commitment to financial discipline and our strong credit quality culture," said
Eugene A. Miller, Comerica chairman, president and chief executive officer.
"Imperial represents a superb strategic fit and will accelerate and sustain this
strategy. Its strong base of relationships in key middle-market sectors of the
California economy, and its demonstrated capacity to generate 20 percent-plus
compound annual growth in loans, deposits and earnings per share over the past
five years will help fuel our growth strategies in California and nationally,"
he added.

"With this combination, we extend our geographic footprint in the highly
attractive Southern California economy and solidify our national leadership
position in several key growth businesses. Comerica takes a disciplined view of
acquisitions -- and this transaction represents the right mix of strategic
growth drivers, sound financial metrics, and just plain good chemistry," Mr.
Miller said.

The transaction will make Comerica California's volume leader in Small Business
Administration (SBA) lending and entertainment industry lending, while ranking
number two in lending to emerging growth markets. The bank will further enhance
its California deposit market share through Imperial's deposit-rich emerging
growth, title and escrow, and middle-market banking businesses.

"Our affiliation with Comerica presents significant benefits for Imperial
Bancorp's shareholders, and Imperial Bank's customers and employees," said
George L. Graziadio, Jr., chairman, president and chief executive officer of
Imperial Bancorp and chairman and co-founder of Imperial Bank. "We were
attracted to Comerica because of its proven leadership and experience in
business lending as well as its intense commitment to superior relationship
banking. The combination of our two organizations will provide significantly
expanded products and services for our customers."

"Joining forces with Comerica is the right step for Imperial Bank, its customers
and employees. Comerica stands for quality service and financial discipline, and
we look forward to introducing the Comerica brand to our customers," said Norman
P. Creighton, Imperial Bank vice chairman and chief executive officer.
"Together, we can build a highly competitive and market- leading franchise in
California. Comerica's middle-market business focus is our business focus.

"Finally, the combination of our forces with Comerica will, over time, generate

added opportunities for many employees as they become part of a larger
organization," he added.

"We saw a great fit with Imperial for several reasons, not the least of which is
their commitment to delivering high quality customer service," said J. Michael
Fulton, president and chief executive officer of Comerica Bank - California. "In
addition, their strong focus on relationship business banking is highly
consistent with our approach."

"We believe we are in an excellent position to achieve the goals of this
transaction," said Comerica's Miller. "We have a realistic, two-year phase-in of
cost savings and conversion to common operating platforms, as well as
complementary geographies. In addition to our past successful experience of
integrating larger bank transactions, we have successfully acquired and
integrated five banks in the California market since 1991. We know this market
well -- and expect to complete this acquisition seamlessly."

Comerica's cash dividend is currently $1.60 on an annualized basis; Imperial
does not pay a cash dividend.

The boards of both companies have rescinded their share repurchase programs to
the extent required to account for the merger as a pooling of interests.

Imperial Chairman Graziadio will become chairman of the board of Comerica
Bank-California; Comerica Bank-California President and Chief Executive Officer
Fulton will remain president and chief executive officer; and Imperial Bank's
Vice Chairman Creighton will become vice chairman of Comerica Bank- California.
In addition, Graziadio, Imperial's chairman, and Creighton, Imperial Bank's vice
chairman, will join the Comerica Bank-California board of directors.

Comerica's CRA rating is outstanding and Imperial's is satisfactory. Both
ratings are evidence of the commitment of each organization to improving the
communities they serve.

Comerica and Imperial will continue to work closely with local community groups,
civic organizations, individual community members, business owners and others to
continue to define the credit needs of local communities served and to design
products and services to help meet those needs.

The agreement is subject to approval by the shareholders of Imperial and
customary regulatory approvals. The transaction is expected to close in the
first quarter of 2001. In conjunction with the transaction, Imperial granted to
Comerica a customary option to purchase up to 19.9 percent of Imperial stock.
