MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 1997

The following discussion and financial information are presented to aid in an
understanding of the current financial position and results of operations of
United Security Bancshares, Inc. ("United Security").  United Security is the
Parent Holding Company of United Security Bank (the "Bank"), and it has no
operations of any consequence other than the ownership of its subsidiary.  The
emphasis of this discussion is a comparison of Assets, Liabilities, and Capital
for the three months ended March 31, 1997, to year-end 1996; while comparing
income for the quarter ended March 31, 1997, to income for the quarter ended
March 31, 1996.  All yields and ratios presented and discussed herein are based
on the cash basis and not on the tax-equivalent basis.

On June 1, 1996, United Security Bank completed the acquisition of all the
outstanding shares of Brent Banking Company.  The acquisition increased United
Security's total assets by $33.7 million.  Since the March 31, 1996 Statement
of Income was not effected by the merger, the Statement of Income comparison
will be impacted.

COMPARING THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1997, TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED 
MARCH 31, 1996;

Net income increased $86,551 or 7.9% increasing net income per share to $.54
from $.50.  The increase is due in part to improved net interest income.

Net interest income increased $219,020 or 8.97% over the first quarter of 1996. 
A combination of volume, rate and yield changes, as well as the increased 
income generated by the Brent Bank acquisition, contributed to this increase.
Total interest-earning assets increased by $9,552,687 or 4.41% in the first 
quarter of 1997 and interest-bearing liabilities increased $9,278,739 during 
the same period. Growth in interest earning assets and growth in low interest 
deposit products over the first quarter of 1997 has contributed to the 
increased net interest income because of the spread between the yield on assets 
and the rates paid on liabilities.  

Total interest expense increased $299,873 or 16.73% in the first quarter of 
1997 compared to the same period in 1996.  The increase can be directly 
attributed to the increase in interest on deposits of $298,463, much of which 
is due to the Brent Bank acquisition.  Most of the short-term borrowings have 
been reclassified as long-term debt, and the interest expense for each classi-
fication is off-set in the first quarter comparison. Short-term borrowing 
consists of U. S. Treasury demand notes in the Treasury, Tax and Loan Accounts, 
securities sold under repurchase agreements and federal funds purchased. Long-
term debt consists of loans from the Federal Home Loan Bank.

Net operating income (income excluding taxes and securities transactions)
increased $28,126 or 2.02% in the first quarter of 1997 compared to 1996. 
Management's investment strategy continued to be maximizing portfolio returns
commensurate with appropriate risk and liquidity considerations.  In July of
1995, United Security reclassified all investment securities from held to
maturity to available for sale to allow more flexibility in managing the
investment portfolio. This investment strategy has resulted in increased yields
and liquidity.

Total non-interest income increased $184,279 or 50.06% in the first quarter of
1997 when compared to the first quarter of 1996. There are three major factors
in the increase.  First, securities related income increased $61,427. Secondly,
the increase in deposits bought through the Brent acquisition produced more
service charge income, and third, the Bond Division opened by United Security
Bank in the fourth quarter of 1996 contributed to non-interest income in the
first quarter of 1997.

<PAGE>

Total non-interest expense increased $313,748 or 24.44% in the first quarter of
1997 compared to the first quarter of 1996.  This increase is a direct result
of the Brent Bank acquisition and the start-up of the Bond Division.


COMPARING THE ENDING FIGURES MARCH 31, 1997, TO THE ENDING FIGURES DECEMBER 31,
1996:

Total assets increased $8,915,595 or 3.79% to $244,106,718. Net loans increased
$1,718,655 or 2.66%, while investment securities increased by $5,634,032 or
3.71% to $157,507,596.

Deposits continue to show steady growth by increasing $6,794,706 or 3.78% to
$186,720,423 in the first quarter of 1997.  $5,306,816 of the deposit growth 
was in demand deposits.

On December 31, 1996, Other Borrowings totalled $20 million and consisted of
loans from the Federal Home Loan Bank.  These loans were reclassified as long-
term debt in the first quarter of 1997 and increased by $5 million.  Investment
securities are pledged to secure these borrowings.  Treasury tax and loan
deposits are on demand and increased by $325,962 as in the first quarter of
1997.

Undivided profits increased $834,125 or 3.75%, and net unrealized gain (loss)
on available for sale securities had a total decrease of $1,614,113 in the 
first quarter due to an unrealized gain of $1,062,247 at December 31, 1996 
and an unrealized loss of $551,866 at March 31, 1997.  The unrealized loss 
resulted in a decline in Stockholders' Equity of $779,988 or (2.71%) to 
$28,046,191.

Management is not aware of any current recommendations by the regulatory
authorities which would have any adverse effect on the liquidity, capital
resources or operation of the Bank.  However, there were four law suits filed
against the Bank at the end of the first quarter of 1996, which could impact 
the Banks future earnings.  Management, however does not expect any material
financial impact at this time and the Bank is committed to offer a vigorous
defense in each case.

On August 19, 1996, United Security Bancshares, Inc. entered into an agreement
to merge with First Bancshares, Inc. The application to merge has been approved
by all regulatory authorities and the merger is now pending approval by the
shareholders. The meeting for a shareholder vote is scheduled for May 20, 1997.
