ANNUAL MEETING
May 23, 1996
Dear Fellow Stockholder:
You have previously been mailed a copy of CB Bancshares, Inc. Proxy
Statement (and our Blue Proxy Card) for the 1996 Annual Meeting of
Stockholders, to be held at the Hawaii Prince Hotel (Haleakala/Kilauea Rooms),
100 Holomoana Street, Honolulu, Hawaii, on Thursday, May 23, 1996 at 2:00 p.m.,
Hawaii Standard Time. Your Board of Directors and Management welcome those
stockholders who are able to attend.
CAUTION
There is an important development with respect to the 1996 Annual
Meeting of which you should be aware. M.A. Schapiro & Co., Inc., our former
financial advisor located in New York City, New York, has indicated that it
intends to commence a proxy contest in connection with this year's annual
meeting, and you may soon be receiving its proxy materials, since they have
demanded the company's shareholder list. M.A. Schapiro wants to elect two of
its own nominees to your Board of Directors in place of two of the four highly
qualified incumbent director nominees proposed by your Board. THEREFORE, WE
CAUTION YOU NOT TO RETURN THE WHITE PROXY CARD WHICH M.A. SCHAPIRO MAY SEND TO
YOU.
Your Board of Directors is disappointed that M.A. Schapiro (which had
been a financial advisor to Bancshares since July 1992 and its exclusive
financial adviser from October 1993 until terminated by the Board of Directors
at the end of last year) has chosen to nominate an alternate slate of
directors. Your vote has always been important, but will be extremely
important this year, regardless of the number of shares you own. WE AGAIN URGE
YOU NOT TO RETURN THE WHITE PROXY CARD YOU MAY RECEIVE FROM M.A. SCHAPIRO. We
will keep you informed of all significant developments.
On behalf of your Board of Directors, thank you for your continued
support.
Sincerely,
/s/ James M. Morita
James M. Morita
Chairman of the Board
and Chief Executive Officer
IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOUR SHARES ARE REPRESENTED AND VOTED AT THE MEETING.

PROXY SUPPLEMENT
The following information is provided by CB Bancshares, Inc.
("Bancshares") as a supplement to its Proxy Statement, dated April 19, 1996
(the "Proxy Statement"), previously mailed to Shareholders of Bancshares with
respect to the Bancshares 1996 annual meeting of shareholders (the
"Meeting"), to be held at the Hawaii Prince Hotel (Haleakala/Kilauea Rooms),
100 Holomoana Street, Honolulu, Hawaii, on Thursday, May 23, 1996 at 2:00 p.m.,
Hawaii Standard Time. Only stockholders of record at the close of business on
April 16, 1996(the "Record Date"), will be entitled to notice of and to vote
at the Meeting or any adjournments or postponements thereof. This proxy
supplement is first being mailed to stockholders of Bancshares on or about May
2, 1996.
BACKGROUND TO SOLICITATION IN OPPOSITION
M.A. Schapiro & Co., Inc. ("Schapiro") which has indicated that it
intends to solicit proxies for the election of its nominees, has served as
financial advisor to Bancshares in various capacities since the advisory
relationship commenced in July 1992, including the following:
Schapiro advised Bancshares and served as underwriter in connection
with Bancshares' issuance of 575,000 shares of common stock in
April-May 1993;
Schapiro served as Bancshares' investment banker and rendered a
fairness opinion to Bancshares in connection with its acquisition of
International Savings and Loan Association Limited's parent company,
International Holding Capital Corp., which was consummated on
April 4, 1994; and
Schapiro served as "exclusive financial advisor" to Bancshares and
provided general advice and recommendations in financial and
investment banking matters under a contract from October 1993 until
its termination by Bancshares less than five months ago.
Prior to its termination by Bancshares Board of Directors, Schapiro was
the exclusive financial advisor to Bancshares, which Bancshares viewed as a
fiduciary trust relationship, and had a high degree of access to and knowledge
and awareness of Bancshares' confidential business and financial information
and corporate strategies. On November 30, 1995 a letter was delivered to
Schapiro from Bancshares indicating that the Board of Directors of Bancshares
had decided to make a change in financial advisors and terminate the exclusive
financial advisory agreement with Schapiro. The termination became effective
on December 13, 1995. On January 10, 1996, Bancshares entered into a non-
exclusive financial advisory agreement with National Capital Companies, LLC,
headquartered in Chevy Chase, Maryland, an investment banking and financial
advisory firm specializing in serving the financial services industry.
<PAGE>
On March 13, 1996, George Reycraft, who is Chairman of M.A. Schapiro,
submitted the nominations of two individuals to the Bancshares' Board of
Directors. The nominees, who have consented to serve as directors if elected,
are H. Clifton Whiteman and William M. Griffin. Mr. Whiteman, who lives in New
York City, New York, is a retired bank executive, who has served as: director
and consultant, York Research Corporation, New York, since 1991; director and
consultant, Keene Corporation, New York, since 1991; and director, Teltec
Communications Corp., Westernville, New York since 1995. Mr. Griffin is
chairman of The WMG Company, located in Hartford, Connecticut, organized in
1986 for the purpose of managing the funds of certain limited partnerships
which specialize in the ownership of shares of regional banks and thrift
institutions, and a director of Texas Utilities Company and Gradient Lens
Corporation.
On or about March 22, 1996, Schapiro and other parties filed a Schedule
13D with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") reporting, among
other things, ownership of 6.1% of Bancshares common stock and the nomination
of two persons to Bancshares' Board of Directors. The Schedule 13D stated that
Schapiro was a financial advisor to Bancshares from October 8, 1993 until the
financial advisory agreement was terminated on December 13, 1995, and that in
its role as financial advisor Schapiro made recommendations to management of
Bancshares. According to the Schedule 13D, the nominations of two persons to
the Board of Directors were made in order to effect these recommendations. On
April 17, 1996, Bancshares filed its Proxy Statement with the SEC. On April
19, 1996, Schapiro filed Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D indicating that it
intended to solicit proxies for the election of its two nominees, and that
Schapiro may also include two of management's nominees as part of its proxy
solicitation.
According to its preliminary proxy materials filed with the SEC,
Schapiro intends to include as part of its proxy solicitation Bancshares
nominees James H. Kamo and Lionel Y. Tokioka. SEC rules permit Schapiro to
include Bancshares nominees without their consent, and the naming of such
persons should not be interpreted as the consent or support by such persons of
the Schapiro slate of nominees.
Your Board is disappointed in Schapiro's decision and believes its
determination to proceed with its hostile proxy solicitation is divisive and
not in the best interests of the company or its shareholders. Your Board
believes that its four well-qualified nominees, who have been serving on your
Board, are more aware of and sensitive to the banking needs of the local Hawaii
community than the two nominees from New York and Connecticut. Bancshares is a
locally-based financial institution which relies on and serves the people of
Hawaii for its business. Bancshares believes that its directors have been an
important part of its banking business: they have valuable knowledge of the
local business community, and provide a resource for the development of banking
business in Hawaii. Your Board believes its four incumbent nominees, James H.
Kamo, Caryn S. Morita, Robert R. Taira, and Lionel Y. Tokioka, should be
reelected to assure the continuation of this important tradition.
PLEASE SUPPORT YOUR EXISTING BOARD OF DIRECTORS BY SIGNING, DATING AND
MAILING THE ENCLOSED BLUE PROXY CARD IN THE POSTAGE PAID ENVELOPE PROVIDED.

EXPENSES OF SOLICITATION
The cost of soliciting Bancshares proxies will be borne by
Bancshares. Bancshares will reimburse brokerage firms and other custodians,
nominees and fiduciaries for reasonable expenses incurred by them in sending
proxy materials to the beneficial owners of Common Stock. In addition to
solicitations by mail, directors, officers and regular employees of Bancshares
or its subsidiaries may solicit proxies personally or by telegraph, telephone
or other electronic means without additional compensation. Bancshares has
retained Chemical Mellon Shareholder Services LLC, a professional proxy
solicitation firm, to assist in the solicitation of proxies by mail, personally
or by telephone or other means of communication, for a fee estimated at $35,000
plus expenses and indemnification against certain liabilities. It is
anticipated that approximately 12 persons will be used by Chemical Mellon
Shareholder Services in its solicitation efforts. Although no precise estimate
can be made at this time, Bancshares anticipates that the total expenditures
for the solicitation of proxies (including fees of attorneys, accountants,
public relations or financial advisors, solicitors, printing, transportation
and other costs incidental to the solicitation, but excluding the amounts
normally expended for a solicitation for the election of directors in the
absence of a contest, and costs represented by salaries and wages of regular
employees and officers) are estimated to be $300,000, and total cash
expenditures to date have been approximately $20,000. The total amount to be
spent will vary depending on, among other things, developments that may occur
in the proxy contest discussed above.
