Item 4.   OWNERSHIP.

	The information set forth in 5 through 11 on page 2 is
incorporated herein by this reference.

     Under the terms of the Employee Stock Ownership Plan of
Central Pacific Bank (the "ESOP"), shares of CPB Inc., the parent
of Central Pacific Bank (the "Bank"), are held in a separate
trust by the Trust Division of Central Pacific Bank, the trustee under
the ESOP Trust ("Trustee"), for the exclusive benefit of the
participants.  The Trustee is the record holder of the Common
Stock held by the ESOP; however, the Committee of the ESOP (the
"ESOP Committee"), which consists of five members, gives the
Trustee investment instructions with respect to all of the ESOP
assets and voting instructions with respect to those shares held
by the ESOP for which the voting rights have not passed through
to participants.  At February 13, 1995, the Trustee held 20,604
shares of Common Stock in a suspense account as collateral for a
loan (the "ESOP Loan"), the proceeds of which were used to fund
part of the purchase of 125,000 shares of Common Stock for the
ESOP.  Upon receipt of future annual contributions from the Bank,
the Trustee will make payments on the ESOP Loan and a
corresponding amount of shares of Common Stock will be released
from the suspense account and allocated to the accounts of the
participants.  Although the members of the ESOP Committee share
among themselves as committee members (i) all of the voting power
with respect to the 20,604 shares held in the suspense account
and (ii) dispositive power, subject to the terms of the ESOP,
over all of the shares held by the ESOP and, therefore, pursuant
to the applicable regulations promulgated pursuant to the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, are technically the
beneficial owners of such shares, the actual beneficial owners
are the employees who participate in the ESOP.  The members of
the ESOP Committee, therefore, disclaim beneficial ownership of
such shares held in trust which are otherwise attributable to
them by virtue of serving on such ESOP Committee.

Item 5.  OWNERSHIP OF 5 PERCENT OR LESS OF A CLASS:  N/A.

PAGE
<PAGE>
Item 6.  OWNERSHIP OF MORE THAN 5 PERCENT ON BEHALF OF
         OF ANOTHER PERSON:  

    The employees of CPB Inc. and Central Pacific Bank
who participate in and are the beneficiaries under the 
Employee Stock Ownership Plan of Central Pacific Bank (the
"ESOP") have the right to have dividends received by the
Trustee upon the shares allocated to such participants' 
accounts credited to such accounts and applied to the purchase
of additional shares.

     With respect to the power to direct the receipt of
proceeds from the sale of the shares held in trust, to
qualify under the Tax Reform Act of 1986, the ESOP provides
that any participant who has attained the age of 55 and has
completed at least 10 years of "vesting service" shall have 
the right to direct the diversification of up to 25% of his
account's balance.  A participant who is at least 60 years of
age and has completed at least 10 years of "vesting service" 
shall be permitted to diversify up to 50% of his account
balance.

     In accordance with the terms of the ESOP, when a 
participant terminates employment with Central Pacific Bank
for any reason, he is entitled to a distribution of his 
vested benefit in the ESOP either in the form of cash or 
shares of CPB Inc., as such participant elects.  Accordingly,
if a participant elects to receive cash, such cash may be 
proceeds from the sale of securities held pursuant to the ESOP.

Item 7.  IDENTIFICATION AND CLASSIFICATION OF THE
         SUBSIDIARY WHICH ACQUIRED THE SECURITY BEING 
         REPORTED ON BY THE PARENT HOLDING COMPANY:  N/A.

Item 8.  IDENTIFICATION AND CLASSIFICATION OF THE MEMBERS OF
         THE GROUP:  N/A.

Item 9.  NOTICE OF DISSOLUTION OF GROUP:  N/A.
