                                     PART 1

ITEM 1 - BUSINESS

General:
         TransWorld Bancorp (the "Bancorp" or "Company") is a California
one-bank holding company organized in 1982 which acquired, in October 1982 under
a Plan of Reorganization and Merger, TransWorld Bank (the "Bank") through
approval by the shareholders and regulatory agencies. Since the Bank continues
to be the only holding of the Bancorp, our discussion will refer to the business
of the Bank.

         The Bank, which was incorporated in January 1953, offers a full range
of commercial banking services, including commercial and industrial loans,
various types of consumer loans, real estate loans, checking and savings
deposits, safe deposit boxes, escrow, bankcard merchant services and other
customary non-deposit banking services. The Bank does not have a trust
department.

         The Bank's customers consist principally of middle market businesses
located in, and individuals who live or work in, Los Angeles and adjacent areas.
The Bank emphasizes personal service in its marketing efforts directed to these
customers. The Bank's operations are conducted through a system of ten banking
offices in Los Angeles County and two offices in Ventura County. Its main office
is in Sherman Oaks and branch offices are located in Canyon Country, Chatsworth,
Granada Hills, North Hollywood, Pacoima, San Fernando, Woodland Hills,
Northridge, Valencia, Thousand Oaks and Camarillo. All of the Bank's services
are offered at each office. Presently, the Bancorp has no plans to go into any
other of the permissible activities of a holding company.

Competition:
         The Bank faces strong competition in attracting deposits and loans. The
Bank's principal competition for deposits comes from other banks, savings and
loan associations, credit unions, and money market funds. Additional competition
for deposits during high interest rate periods comes from government and private
issuers of debt obligations and other investment alternatives for depositors.
The Bank's principal competitors for loans are other commercial banks, savings
and loan associations, insurance companies, credit unions, finance companies,
savings banks and credit companies such as GMAC, Ford and Chrysler Credit.

         The Los Angeles County area contains offices of many of the nation's
largest banks and savings and loan associations, each of which has greater
financial (and other) resources than does the Bank. Among the advantages such
major banks have over the Bank is the ability to conduct large advertising
campaigns and to allocate their investment assets, including loans, to regions
of highest demand and yield. These institutions have higher lending limits than
does the Bank and generally perform certain functions including trust,
investment and international banking services which the Bank is not equipped to
offer. The general strategy of the Bank is to compete with these major and
regional banks by focusing on the small-and medium-sized business and
professional segments of the market and providing more personalized service. The
Bank also competes with other banks of comparable size in the Los Angeles area.
The Bank's services are generally similar to those of banks of comparable size,
i.e., money market accounts, certificates of deposit, checking, savings plans,









                                       2

consumer, real estate and commercial lending; most comparable banks do not offer
trust services. Competition with banks of comparable size revolves mainly around
service, pricing of loans, and on interest rates paid for deposits.

Employees:
         At December 31, 1996, the Bank had 212 full-time and 36 part-time
employees. Employees are provided with a wide variety of employment benefits.
The Bank's employees are not represented by any union or other collective
bargaining agent, and the Bank considers its relations with its employees to be
excellent.

Supervision and Regulation:
         The Bancorp is subject to regulation and supervision by the Federal
Reserve Bank ("FRB"). The Bancorp is also subject to certain reporting
requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including the
requirement that it file with the SEC annual, quarterly, and current reports
under the 1934 Act. The Bancorp's proxy solicitation materials must be submitted
to the SEC for approval under such Act.

         The Bank is subject to regulations, supervision and regular examination
by the California Banking Department and the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation ("FDIC"), which insures the depositors. The regulations of these
agencies affect most aspects of the Bank's business and prescribe permissible
types of loans and investments, the amount of required reserves, the
requirements for branch offices, the permissible scope of the Bank's activities
and various other requirements. While the Bank is not a member of the Federal
Reserve System, it is nevertheless subject to certain regulations of the FRB.

         Federal legislation puts certain restrictions on loans to directors,
officers, and principal shareholders of a bank or of its correspondent banks,
and their associates. All loans to such persons must be made on the same terms
and conditions as comparable loans made to the general public and limits have
been placed on the amounts of such loans that may be made to such persons,
depending upon the purpose for which the loan is made. In the opinion of
management, the Bank is in compliance with such limitations.

Interstate Banking:
         In September 1986, California adopted an interstate banking law. The
law allows California banks and bank holding companies to be acquired by banking
organizations in other states on a "reciprocal" basis (i.e., provided the other
state's laws permit California banking organizations to acquire banking
organizations in that state on substantially the same terms and conditions
applicable to banking organizations solely within that state). Effective January
1, 1991, the law allowed interstate acquisitions on a national "reciprocal"
basis.

Supplemental Capital Adequacy Guidelines:

         The Federal Reserve Board and FDIC have established risk-based capital
guidelines relating capital to different categories of assets and
off-balance-sheet exposures. There are two categories of capital under the
guidelines Tier I and Tier II. Tier I capital essentially includes common
stockholders' equity. Tier II capital includes other capital components as well
as the allowance for loan and lease losses (limited to 1.25% of risk-weighted
assets). Assets and off-balance-sheet items are assigned to four weighted risk
categories, with higher levels of capital being required for the categories
perceived as representing a greater risk. Under current guidelines, the minimum
risk-based capital ratio is 8% (of which at least 4% should be in the form of
common stockholders' equity). An institution's risk-based capital can be
determined by dividing its qualifying capital by its risk-weighted assets. The
guidelines have made regulatory capital requirements more sensitive to the
differences in risk profiles among banking institutions, take off-balance- sheet
items into account when assessing capital adequacy, and minimize disincentives
to holding liquid low-risk assets.

         In addition, the achievement of a minimum leverage ratio of 4% is
required. The leverage ratio basically consists of stockholders' equity divided
by average total assets. As in the case of the risk-based capital those with
high or inordinate levels of risk will be expected to maintain capital well
above the minimum level. The leverage ratio will operate in conjunction with the
risk-based capital guidelines.

</TABLE>

The amount charged to operations during the year and the related balance in the
reserve for credit losses is based on periodic evaluations of the loan portfolio
by senior management. These evaluations consider several factors including, but
not limited to, examinations of monthly reports from the loan adjustment
department, examinations done by the Federal and State regulators, loan
portfolio composition, economic factors, and prior credit loss experience.

As a result of provisions made pursuant to these evaluations, it is management's
opinion that the aggregate reserves of the Bank are currently sufficient to
provide for possible losses in the Bank's loan portfolio. However, since each of
the criteria is subject to change, there can be no assurance that the Bank may
not, in subsequent years, sustain actual losses which are substantial in
relationship to the size of the reserve.

IV.  SUMMARY OF CREDIT LOSS EXPERIENCE (continued)

B. The following allocation is based primarily on analysis of prior loss
experience, present and anticipated volume levels by individual categories and
on management's evaluation of prevailing economic conditions as they may affect
segments of the portfolio. Accordingly, since each of these criteria is subject
to change, the allocation of the reserve below is not necessarily indicative of
the trend of future loan losses in any particular loan category.

     The Company announced on November 4, 1996 that it had entered into an
agreement whereby Glendale Federal Bank will acquire TransWorld Bancorp and its
subsidiary, TransWorld Bank, in a cash transaction valued at $63.0 million, or
$18.25 per share. Shareholders approved the transaction at a special meeting
held on February 26, 1997. The transaction, which is still subject to regulatory
approval, is expected to be completed during the second quarter of 1997.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     NET INTEREST INCOME

     Net interest income declined 6% from 1995 but gained 9% over 1994. The 1996
decrease came primarily from an increase in the cost of deposits, which were up
25% over 1995 and 61% over the level recorded in 1994. The higher cost of
deposits was partially offset by increased interest income generated by the
larger investment and loan portfolios. The increase in 1995 net interest income
came from a shift of fed funds sold to higher yielding earning assets and
increased yields in all earning asset categories.

     Interest and fees on loans improved by $506,000, or 4% over 1995 and
$2,190,000, or 19% over 1994. This resulted from increased loan totals, not rate
changes. Most of the Company's loans are tied to the prime rate, which has not
changed since it decreased in February 1996. Interest earned on investment
securities also improved due to the increased size of the portfolio and
improvement in yields. The yield on the investment portfolio improved to 6.3% in
1996, from 6.1% in 1995 and 5.5% in 1994.

     Interest costs increased from 2.4% in 1994 to 3.3% in 1995 and to 3.6% in
1996. This came about as a result of changes in deposit mix and an increase in
savings rates over the past two years. 1994 was a year of low interest rates as
well as having a large account with up to $40 million in checking and low
yielding money market accounts. These funds were moved in 1995 into repurchase
agreements and then left the bank in October of 1995. The Bank replaced these
funds over the next year with higher cost time deposits increasing the overall
cost of interest bearing deposits from 3.1% in 1995 to 3.6% in 1996.

     PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES

     The Company's credit loss provision has been declining since 1993,
coinciding with improvements in the quality of the Company's loan portfolio and
the California economy. The provision was $430,000 in 1996 compared to $830,000
in 1995 and $921,000 in 1994. Net charge-offs have been steadily decreasing from
$917,000 in 1994 to $581,000 in 1995 to $264,000 in 1996. The Company has
maintained its reserve at a level consistent with the risks in the portfolio.
Currently the level of reserves is at 1.79% of outstanding loans.

     Improvement in the Southern California economy has helped to keep the level
of non-performing loans at an acceptable level. At the end of 1996
non-performing loans were at $1,878,000, or 1.38% of loans. This was up slightly
from the $1,032,000, or 0.8% of loans at the of 1995 and the $1,579,000, or
1.26% of outstanding loans at the end of 1994. Currently the Company does not
see any negative trends that would lead to an economic slowdown or erosion of
credit quality.

     NONINTEREST INCOME

     Noninterest income has shown significant growth in 1996. Noninterest income
increased $703,000, or 17% over 1995 and $913,000, or 24% over the amount earned
in 1994. Major items contributing to this growth were service charges on deposit
accounts and other operating income. Service charges on business accounts had
the greatest growth due to both an increase in the number of accounts as well as
an increase in the number of services used by our business customers. Pricing
remained virtually unchanged during 1996, so increased income came strictly from
growth.

     Other operating income grew from $865,000 in 1994, to $1,033,000 in 1995,
to $1,420,000 during 1996. The large gain in 1996 is partly attributable to an
insurance recovery received in the third quarter for a fire loss sustained at
our North Hollywood office in October, 1995. The SBA lending program (started in
1994) has also been a large contributor to other noninterest income through fees
earned on sales and servicing of SBA loans and has also benefited the loan
portfolio by increasing the Company's total loans over the past three years.

     NONINTEREST EXPENSE

     Noninterest expense was up 5%, or $720,000 over 1995 which is greater than
the 2% increase we had in 1995 over 1994. 1996 saw the first full year of
operations for the Camarillo office as well as the expense of opening a new
Valencia office in June. The costs associated with these offices represented a
substantial portion of our increase in noninterest expense.

     Salaries and employee benefits experienced the largest single increase,
gaining $519,000, or 7% compared to the same 7% increase in 1995. The addition
of a new president and chief operating officer of the Bank in May, 1996, the
additional staff for two new offices and merit increases for the existing staff
caused the increase. Occupancy costs also grew due to rent for two new offices
and higher depreciation costs for replacement of the furniture, equipment and
leasehold improvements at our North Hollywood and San Fernando offices.
Additionally, we paid double rent in San Fernando for the five months of
construction time needed to




                                       21
<PAGE>   22

build the new facility. Most of the costs associated with the North Hollywood
fire have been recovered from insurance and were reported in other income.

     During 1996 we finished a computer equipment upgrade which began in 1995.
This increased our data processing costs as well as depreciation costs. The new
computers add to the Bank's ability to enhance the service offered to our
customers. FDIC insurance costs, which were substantial in 1994 and 1995, were
only $2,000 for 1996. An overall review of the insurance reserve was done by the
FDIC in 1996 and a new rate structure was set as a result. The Company's FDIC
costs under this new rate structure are projected to approximate $45,000 in
1997.

     Other operating expenses increased $365,000 in 1996 compared to an increase
of $329,000 in 1995. The major components contributing to the 1996 increase were
marketing and professional service fees. Marketing costs were increased in 1996
to generate increased loan demand and to promote the opening of our Valencia
office and the relocations of our North Hollywood and San Fernando offices.
Professional fees grew as a result of increased legal and accounting fees and
the need to improve branch security services as a result of the regions'
increased number of bank robberies.

     ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

The loan portfolio grew 3% in 1995 and improved 6% during 1996 bringing the
portfolio total to $136,523,000. The 1996 growth outpaced the growth in overall
assets, thus increasing our loan to asset ratio. We will maintain our efforts
during 1997 to increase the portfolio to a larger percent of assets which should
improve interest margins. The reason for the sluggish growth is due to slow
economic improvement and competition by large California banks (primarily Bank
of America, Wells Fargo) as they target smaller commercial loan customers. In
prior years the large banks had not been competing with community banks in this
loan segment. In many cases the pricing being offered by competition is thinner
than we have been willing to accept.

     The Company had stated in last year's discussion that it planned on
increasing the investment portfolio and correspondingly decreasing the federal
funds position during 1996 and that was the case. The investment portfolio was
increased by $17,458,000, or 11%, and federal funds sold was decreased almost
$15,000,000, or 43%. This move helped to improve the net interest margin.

     Noninterest bearing deposits grew at a rapid pace, increasing 8%, or
$8,080,000 over 1995 year-end totals. Most of the increase came from business
checking, which has been the main goal for the Company. Interest bearing
deposits also showed good growth, increasing 7%, or $15,146,000. Most of this
growth was generated by a new product introduced earlier in the year named the
"Investors Money Market Account". This money market savings account pays
interest similar to account offerings at most investment banking firms. Balances
in this account grew to approximately $38,000,000 at year end, with one third in
personal accounts and two thirds in business accounts.

     Securities sold under repurchase agreements declined as the customers using
this instrument transferred their funds to the new money market account and/or
used the funds for other purposes.


                                       22
<PAGE>   23

     Equity capital continued its improvement as a result of good earnings and
the corresponding increase in retained earnings. Equity capital increased 12%
over year-end 1995. With the rise in interest rates during 1996 the market value
of "available for sale" securities declined from a net gain of $72,000 at
December 31, 1995 to a net loss of ($104,000) at December 31, 1996. Book value
of the Company stock increased to $9.62 from an adjusted $8.61 at December 31,
1995.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL

     ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT

     The Company's asset/liability policy is used to monitor and maintain the
Company's interest rate risk. Liquidity and profitability are evaluated and
projected as they are affected by changes in interest rates. Management uses gap
analysis to measure interest rate risk in terms of the mismatch between the
stated repricing and maturities of earning assets and liabilities within defined
time frames. The cumulative one year gap position at December 31, 1996 was
$80,402,000 which increased from $36,251,000 at December 31, 1995. This higher
sensitivity is due to the fact that our merger agreement with Glendale Federal
Bank prohibited TransWorld Bank from investing in securities other than US
Treasury and/or US agency securities with maturities of more than one year.

      With 21% of assets sensitive to interest rate changes within one year, the
Company is in a position that an increase in interest rates will immediately
increase the net interest margin. The opposite is also true, in that an interest
rate decline will quickly decrease the net interest margin. The Company does not
use off-balance sheet interest rate instruments to hedge interest rate risk.

     LIQUIDITY MANAGEMENT

     The object of liquidity management is to maintain cash flow sufficient to
meet the cash needs of depositors and borrowers and to fund the Company's
operations. The Company continues to remain liquid with short-term assets more
than ample to cover any fluctuations in the cash flow needs of the Company.

     The statement of cash flows shows that during 1996 we decreased the cash
and cash equivalent position by approximately $8.4 million to $50.4 million.
This still leaves the Company highly liquid, particularly since increases in
investment portfolio assets were in liquid short-term agency securities.

     CAPITAL

     The Company's capital position strengthened during 1996. The risk- based
capital ratio at the end of 1996 improved to 17.9%, compared to 16.6% at
December 31, 1995, continuing well above the regulatory minimum ratio of 8%. The
Company improved the Tier I capital ratio to 16.7% at year-end compared to 15.4%
at the end of 1995. The leverage ratio (which measures equity capital as a
percent of total assets) was 8.9% compared to 8.4% at December 31, 1995. The
FDIC definition for a well capitalized bank requires a total risk-based ratio
equal to, or greater than, 10%; a Tier I risk-based ratio equal to, or greater
than, 6%; and a Tier I leverage ratio equal to, or greater than, 5%. Your
Company exceeds all of the above requirements.

FUTURE OPERATIONS

     The Company will continue operations on a normal basis until the completion
of the acquisition by Glendale Federal Bank, which was approved by shareholder's
on February 26, 1996. The transaction is expected to close by the middle of May,
1997.

NOTE 1 - PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND PRESENTATION:

The accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 1996 and 1995
are those of TransWorld Bancorp (The Company) and its subsidiary TransWorld Bank
(Bank). The Bank's primary source of revenue is providing loans to customers,
who are predominately small to mid-sized businesses through operations of its 12
banking offices located in Southern California. The consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of the respective parent company and subsidiary.
All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Certain amounts in the financial statements for prior years have been
reclassified to conform with the 1996 financial statement presentation.

The consolidated statements of cash flows illustrate the change in cash and cash
equivalents as disclosed in the consolidated balance sheet. For purpose of
reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash, due from banks and
federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds sold are sold for one day periods.

USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES:

The Bank classifies its investment securities as follows:

     Held to Maturity Securities - Debt securities that the Bank has the
     positive intent and ability to hold to maturity. These securities are
     reported at amortized cost.

     Trading Securities - Debt and equity securities that are bought and held
     principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term. These
     securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses
     included in earnings. The Bank holds no trading securities.

     Available for Sale Securities - Debt and equity securities not classified
     as either held to maturity or trading securities. These securities are to
     be reported at estimated fair value, with unrealized gains and losses
     excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of
     stockholders' equity (net of tax effects).

Accreted discounts and amortized premiums on investment securities are included
in interest income, and unrealized and realized gains or losses related to
holding or selling securities are calculated using the specific identification
method.

NOTE 1 - PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (continued)

LOANS AND LEASES:

Loans are stated net of unearned income, undisbursed loan funds, and net
deferred loan origination fees and costs. Interest on loans is recognized by
methods which generally result in level rates of return on principal amounts
outstanding. Direct lease financing is carried net of unearned income. Income
from leases is recognized on a level yield basis over the terms of the leases
based upon the unrecovered equity investment. When a loan or lease is placed on
non-accrual, all previously accrued but not collected interest is reversed
against current period income.

Loan origination fees and costs are being recognized over the life of the loans
using the effective interest method or on a basis that approximates the interest
method.

Provisions for credit losses are charged to operations in amounts deemed
appropriate by management based upon its evaluation of the loan and lease
portfolio.

On January 1, 1995 the Bank adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
("SFAS") No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," as amended
by SFAS No. 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - Income
Recognition and Disclosures." This statement prescribes that a loan is impaired
when it is probable that the creditor will be unable to collect all contractual
principal and interest payments under the terms of the loan agreement. This
statement generally requires impaired loans to be measured based on the present
value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest
rate, or as an expedient, at the loan's observable market price or the fair
value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.

Periodically, the Bank sells the guaranteed portion of SBA loans. Gains on sales
of SBA loans are deferred for 90 days at which time the gain is allocated to the
guaranteed and unguaranteed portions of the loan. The amount allocated to the
guaranteed portion of the loan is recognized as other income. The amount of gain
allocated to the unguaranteed portion of the loan (including excess servicing
income, if any) is deferred and amortized over the life of the loan as an
adjustment of yield.

OTHER REAL ESTATE OWNED:

Other real estate owned, which represents real estate acquired through
foreclosure in satisfaction of commercial and real estate loans, is stated at
the fair value of the real estate less estimated costs to sell. Loan balances in
excess of the fair value of the real estate acquired at the date of acquisition
are charged against the allowance for credit losses. Any subsequent operating
expenses or income, reduction in estimated values, and gains or losses on
disposition of such properties are recorded in current operations.

<PAGE>   31
NOTE 1 - PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (continued)

PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT:

Premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation, and
are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives
of the assets. Leasehold improvements and leased property under capital leases
are amortized using the straight-line method over the useful lives of the assets
or the term of the lease, whichever is shorter.

TAXES ON INCOME:

Income tax expense is computed using the liability method, which recognizes a
liability or asset representing the tax effects, based on current tax law, of
future deductible or taxable amounts attributable to events that have been
recognized in the consolidated financial statements. The principal temporary
differences relate to different methods used for tax and financial reporting
purposes to account for credit losses, depreciation and direct lease financing.

NET INCOME PER SHARE:

Net income per share is computed on the weighted average number of shares of
common stock outstanding during each year. Shares available under stock option
plans are not included in the computation, as their effect would not be
material. The weighted average number of shares is adjusted to give retroactive
recognition to stock dividends declared in 1995 and in previous years, and the
five for four stock split declared January 31, 1996, paid March 15, 1996.

DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:

SFAS No.107 specifies the disclosure of the estimated fair value of financial
instruments. The Bank's estimated fair value amounts are reflected in Note 12
and have been determined by the Bank using available market information and
appropriate valuation methodologies.

However, considerable judgment is required to develop the estimates of fair
value. Accordingly, the estimates presented in Note 12 are not necessarily
indicative of the amounts the Company could have realized in a current market
exchange as of December 31, 1996 and 1995. The use of different market
assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the
estimated fair value amounts.

Although management is not aware of any factors, except those discussed in Note
15, that would significantly affect the estimated fair value amounts, such
amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial
statements since the balance sheet date and, therefore, current estimates of 
fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented in the 
accompanying Notes.

NOTE 1 - PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (continued)

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS:

On January 1, 1996 the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
standards ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-lived Assets
and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." This statement requires that
long-lived assets, certain identifiable intangibles, and goodwill related to
those assets to be held and used, or disposed of, be reviewed for impairment
based on the fair value of the asset. Furthermore, this statement requires that
certain long-lived assets and identifiable intangibles to be disposed of, be
reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. The
Company has determined that the impact of this statement on its operations and
financial position is not material for the year ended December 31, 1996.

In June 1996, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No.
125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
Extinguishments of Liabilities". This statement provides accounting and
reporting standards for transfers and servicing of financial assets and
extinguishments of liabilities, and is applied prospectively to financial
statements for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 1996. In 1996, the FASB
also issued SFAS No. 127, Deferral of the Effective date of Certain Provisions
of FASB Statement No. 125," which defers for one year the effective date of
certain provisions within SFAS No. 125. The Company does not believe the impact
on its operations and financial position will be material upon adoption of SFAS
No. 125 or SFAS No. 127.


STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION:

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation," encourages, but does not require companies to record compensation
cost for stock-based employee compensation plans at fair value. The Company has
chosen to continue to account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic
value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related Interpretations.
Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if
any, of the quoted market price of the Company's stock at the date of the grant
over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. The pro forma effects
of adoption are disclosed in Note 9.


                                       32
<PAGE>   33
NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT SECURITIES:

The amortized cost and estimated fair values of investments in securities are
shown below. Most debt securities are publicly traded and the fair value was
obtained from an independent pricing service. Securities dealers supplied fair
values for securities not actively traded. Money market (auction rate) preferred
stocks are essentially substitutes for money market investments such as
commercial paper and are closer in their characteristics to debt than equity.
The Company has received permission from the FDIC and state banking regulators
to invest in this type of security. Auction rate preferred stocks are included
as equity stock securities below at par value as they are rate-adjusted every 49
days.

The Bank had undisbursed commitments on real estate loans of $1,184,000 at
December 31, 1996 and $428,000 at December 31, 1995. At December 31, 1996 and
1995, the Bank had outstanding letters of credit in the amount of $2,579,000 and
$802,000, respectively.

The aggregate amount of loans outstanding to officers, directors, and principal
security holders and associates was $2,569,000 at December 31, 1996 and
$1,817,000 at December 31, 1995. The amount of new and renewed loans was
$1,238,000 and repayments were $486,000 during 1996. These loans were made on
substantially the same terms, including interest rate and collateral, as those
prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with unrelated persons and do
not involve more than the normal risk of collectibility.

The Bank grants loans to customers throughout its primary market area of Los
Angeles County, California and surrounding areas. The Bank makes loans to
borrowers in a number of different industries with no particular concentration
in any industry segment.

The Bank is a 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. These 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 commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by
the contractual amount of those instruments. At December 31, 1996, the Bank had
commitments to extend credit of $47,487,000 and obligations under standby
letters of credit of $2,410,000.

NOTE 3 - LOANS AND LEASES (continued):

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend 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.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to
guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are
primarily issued to support obligations of vendors/suppliers who are customers
of the Bank. All outstanding guarantees have a maturity of one year or less.

The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional
obligations as it does for extending loan facilities to customers. The Bank
evaluates each customer's creditworthiness 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 real estate, certificates of deposit,
accounts receivable, inventory, other property, plant, and equipment.

NOTE 9 - STOCK OPTION PLAN (continued):



The estimated fair value of options granted during 1996 and 1995 was $10.34 and
$7.11 per share, respectively. The Company applies Accounting Principles Board
Opinion No. 25 and related Interpretations in accounting for its stock options
plan. Had compensation cost for the Company's stock option plan been determined
based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards under the plan consistent
with the method of SFAS No. 123, the Company's net income and earnings per share
for the years ended December 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995 would have been
reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

The fair value of options granted under the company's stock option plan during
1996 and 1995 was estimated on the date of grant using the Black- Scholes
option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used: no
dividend yield, expected volatility of 32%, risk free interest rate of 5.37%,
and expected lives of 5 years.



NOTE 10 - POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS OTHER THAN PENSIONS:

The Company provides certain health care and other benefits for retired
employees. Generally, qualified employees may become eligible for these benefits
if they retire in accordance with the Company's established retirement policy
and are continuously insured under the Company's insurance plans prior to
retirement. All retired employees of the Company who are age 63 with 20 years of
continuous service in a plan offered by the Company are eligible for these
benefits. The Company's postretirement

benefit plans currently are not funded.  The Company has the right to
modify or terminate these plans.

The effect of adoption of SFAS No. 106 in 1993 of $182,000 is being
amortized over 20 years.

The average health care cost trend rate used in measuring the accumulated
postretirement benefit obligation and postretirement benefit cost was 10.5% and
12.0% in 1996 and 1995 respectively, gradually declining to 5.25% in 2003 and
remaining at that level thereafter. A 1% increase in the assumed health care
cost trend rate for each year would increase the accumulated postretirement
benefit obligation by $83,000 at December 31, 1996 and $70,000 at December 31,
1995, and would increase the sum of the service cost and interest cost by
$16,000 in 1996 and $9,000 in 1995.

The weighted average discount rate used in determining the accumulated
postretirement benefit obligation was 7.75% at December 31, 1996, and 7.0% at
December 31, 1995.

The Company offers no other postemployment, postretirement, or pension benefits.


NOTE 11 - REGULATORY MATTERS:

DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS:

California banking law places the following restrictions on the availability of
surplus and retained earnings for dividend purposes. "A bank may not make
distribution to its stockholders in excess of the lesser of (1) retained
earnings or (2) net income for its last three fiscal years, less the amount of
any such distributions made by the bank to the stockholders of the bank during
such period." The amount of Bank retained earnings free of restrictions for
purpose of dividend distribution is $10,409,000.

NOTE 11 - REGULATORY MATTERS (continued):

CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS:

The Company is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered
by the federal 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
Company's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the
regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company must meet
specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company's
assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under
regulatory accounting practices. The Company'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 Company 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, as of December 31, 1996, that the
Company meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

As of December 31, 1996 and 1995, the most recent notification from the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) categorized the Bank as 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, Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no
conditions or events since that notification that management believes have
changed the institution's category.

The Company's actual capital amounts and ratios are presented in the table and
the Bank's capital amounts and ratios are comparable.

NOTE 12 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Bank in estimating the
fair values of its financial instruments:

Cash and Due from Banks - The fair values and the carrying amounts of cash and
due from banks are the same by definition. There are no factors that will cause
the market value of these assets to differ from book value.

Investment Securities - Fair values for investment securities are based on
quoted market prices.

Loans - The fair value for commercial loans has been estimated by discounting
the projected cash flows at December 31, 1996 and 1995, using the risk-adjusted
spreads to the U.S. Treasury curve to approximate current entry-value interest
rates applicable to each category of loans. The fair value of all other loans
has been estimated by discounting the projected cash flows using the current
rate at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit
ratings, and for the same maturities. In computing the estimated fair value for
all loans, estimated future cash flows have been reduced by specific and general
reserves for loan losses.

No adjustment was made to the entry-value interest rates for changes in credit
of performing loans for which there are no known credit concerns. Management
segregates loans in appropriate risk categories. Management believes that the
risk factor embedded in the entry-value interest rates along with the general
reserves applicable to the performing loan portfolio for which there are no
known credit concerns result in a fair valuation of such loans on an entry-value
basis. The fair value of nonperforming loans with a recorded book value of
$1,878,000 and $1,034,000 at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively, was not
estimated because it is not practicable to reasonably assess the credit
adjustment that would be applied in the marketplace for such loans. As such, the
estimated fair value of total loans at December 31, 1996 and 1995 includes the
carrying amount of nonaccrual loans at this date.

Deposits - The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts, and certain
money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The
fair value of time certificates of deposit is estimated by discounting future
cash flows using rates currently offered for deposits with similar remaining
maturities.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
   TransWorld Bancorp
Sherman Oaks, California:


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of TransWorld
Bancorp and subsidiary as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related
consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for each
of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1996.  These financial
statements are the responsibility of TransWorld Bancorp'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, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all
material respects, the consolidated financial position of TransWorld Bancorp
and subsidiary at December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
