           NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.   GENERAL

     The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
     statements as of March 31, 1999 and 1998 include the accounts of
     United Security Bancshares, Inc. and its subsidiaries.  All
     significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been
     eliminated.

     The interim financial statements are unaudited but, in the opinion
     of management, reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair
     presentation of financial position and results of operations for
     such periods presented.  Such adjustments are of a normal,
     recurring nature.  The results of operation for any interim period
     are not necessarily indicative of results expected for the fiscal
     year ended December 31, 1998.  While certain information and
     footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
     prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
     principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules
     and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission,
     management believes that the disclosures herein are adequate to
     make the information presented not misleading.  These financial
     statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
     financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Annual
     Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998, of
     United Security Bancshares, Inc. and Subsidiaries.  The accounting
     policies followed by United Security Bancshares, Inc. ("USB") are
     set forth in the summary of significant accounting policies in
     USB's December 31, 1998 consolidated financial statements.

2.   NET INCOME PER SHARE

     Basic net income per share was computed by dividing net income by
     weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding
     during the three months period ended March 31, 1999.  Common stock
     outstanding consists of issued shares less treasury stock. 
     Diluted net income per share for the three month period ended
     March 31, 1999 and 1998, was computed by dividing net income by
     the weighted average number of shares of common stock and the
     dilutive effects of the shares awarded under the Stock Option
     plan, based on the treasury stock method using an average fair
     market value of the stock during the respective periods.

     The following table represents the net income per share
     calculations for the three month period ended March 31, 1999 and
     1998:

3.   COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

     The company adopted SFAS No. 130 effective January 1, 1998.  SFAS
     No. 130 established standards for reporting and display of
     comprehensive income and its components.

     The Company has classified its securities as available for sale in
     accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No.
     115.  For the three month period ended March 31, 1999, the net
     unrealized gain on these securities decreased by $1.2 million. 
     Pursuant to Statement No. 115, any unrealized gain or loss
     activity of available for sale securities is to be recorded as an
     adjustment to a separate component of shareholders' equity, net of
     income tax effect.  Accordingly, for the three month period ended
     March 31, 1999 and 1998, the Company recognized a corresponding
     adjustment in the net unrealized gain component of equity.

     Since comprehensive income is a measure of all changes in equity
     of an enterprise that result from transactions and other economic
     events of the period, this change in unrealized gain serves to
     increase or decrease comprehensive income.  The following table
     represents comprehensive income for the three and nine months
     ended September 30, 1998 and 1997:

4.   MARKET RISK

     There have been no material changes in reported market risks since
     year-end.

<PAGE>

5.   PENDING ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     The AICPA has issued Statements of Position 98-1, Accounting for
     the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal
     Use.  This statement requires capitalization for external direct
     costs of materials and services; payroll and payroll-related costs
     for employees directly associated; and interest costs during
     development of computer software for internal use (planning and
     preliminary costs should be expensed).  Also, capitalized costs of
     computer software developed or obtained for internal use should be
     amortized on a straight-line basis unless another systematic and
     rational basis is more representative of the software's use.

     This statement is effective for financial statements for fiscal
     years beginning after December 15, 1998 (prospectively) and is not
     expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial
     statements.

     The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") has issued
     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting
     for Derivative Instruments and for Hedging Activities.  The
     statement requires derivatives to be recorded in the balance sheet
     as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value.  The
     Statement also requires that changes in the derivatives' fair
     value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge
     accounting criteria are met.  This Statement is effective for
     fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999 (prospectively) and is
     not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated
     financial statements.

6.   SEGMENT REPORTING

     Under SFAS No. 131, Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise
     and Related Information, certain information is disclosed for the
     two reportable operating segments of the Company.  The reportable
     segments were determined using the internal management reporting
     system.  They are composed of the Company's significant
     subsidiaries.  The accounting policies for each segment are the
     same as those used by the Company as described in Note 2, Summary
     of Significant Accounting Policies.  The segment results include
     certain overhead allocations and intercompany transactions that
     were recorded at current market prices.  All intercompany
     transactions have been eliminated to determine the consolidated
     balances.  The results for the two reportable segments of the
     Company are included in the following table:

Item 2.

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

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" or "the Company" ).  
United Security is the parent holding company of First United Security Bank 
(the "Bank"), and it has no operations of any consequence other than the 
ownership of its subsidiaries.

The emphasis of this discussion is a comparison of Assets, Liabilities, and 
Capital for the three months ended March 31, 1999, and 1998, while comparing 
income for the three months period ended March 31, 1999, to income for the 
three months period ended March 31, 1998.

All yields and ratios presented and discussed herein are based on the cash 
basis and not on the tax-equivalent basis.

COMPARING THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999, TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED 
MARCH 31, 1998:

Net income decreased $8,000, or .36%, resulting in virtually no change in 
increasing basic net income per share of $.63.

The increase in interest income was due to increases in interest on loans. This
increase is due to an increase in the average loans outstanding and an 
increase in the average yield.

The $428,000, or 11%, increase in noninterest expense was primarily attributed 
to increases in salaries and employee benefits expenses of $370,000 and an 
increase in other noninterest expenses of $48,000, or 4.4%.  A significant 
portion of the increase in salaries and employee benefits expenses is 
associated with the cost of adding offices to the Acceptance Loan Company, a 
wholly owned subsidiary of First United Security Bank.

COMPARING THE MARCH 31, 1999, STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL CONDITION TO DECEMBER 31, 
1998:

In comparing the financial condition at December 31, 1998, to March 31, 1999, 
the liquidity and capital resources did not materially change during the period.
Total assets decreased $2.5 million to $448 million, while liabilities decreased
$2.9 million to $386 million.  Retained earnings increased $1.5 million, or 3%, 
due to earnings in excess of dividends paid during the period.  This change 
and a decrease of $1.2 million in net unrealized gain on available for sale 
securities increased shareholders' equity by $406,000 to $60.1 million.

CAPITAL RESOURCES:

The Bank's primary sources of funds are customer deposits, repayments of loan
principal, and interest from loans and investments.  While scheduled principal
repayments on loans and mortgage-backed securities are a relatively predictable
source of funds, deposit flows, and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by
general interest rates, economic conditions, and competition.  The Bank manages 
the pricing of its deposits to maintain a desired deposit balance. In addition, 
the Bank invests in short-term interest-earning assets, which provide 
liquidity to meet lending requirements.

The Bank is required to maintain certain levels of regulatory capital. At March 
31, 1999, and December 31, 1998, United Security and the Bank were in 
compliance with all regulatory capital requirements.

<PAGE>

Management is not aware of any condition that currently exists that would have 
any adverse effects on the liquidity, capital resources, or operation of United 
Security Bancshares, Inc.  However, the Company is a defendant in certain 
claims and legal actions rising in the ordinary course of business.  In the 
opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate 
disposition of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect 
on the financial position of the Company.

YEAR 2000 PROBLEM:

The Year 2000 ("Y2K") problem is the programming problem caused by some computer
software programs and hardware systems using only two digits to indicate a year 
and assuming that the first two digits of any year are "19". Risks to the 
Company if its computer systems are not Y2K compliant include the inability to 
process customer deposits or checks drawn on the Bank, inaccurate interest 
accruals and maturity dates of loans and time deposits, and the inability to 
update accounts for daily transactions.  Other risks to the Company exist if 
certain of its vendors', suppliers', and customers' computer systems are not
Y2K compliant.  These risks include the inability of the Bank to communicate 
with the centralized data processing center if phone systems are not working, 
the interruption of business in the event of power outages, the inability of 
loan customers to comply with repayment terms if their businesses are 
interrupted, and the inability to make payment for checks drawn on the Bank, 
receive payment for checks deposited by the Bank's customers, or invest excess 
funds if the Federal Reserve Banks or correspondent banks are not Y2K 
compliant.  The Company's most important mission critical system is the 
software and hardware responsible for maintaining and processing general 
ledger, deposits, and loan accounts.  The Bank has satisfactorily completed 
testing of all in-house systems.  The Company continues to contact its key 
vendors, suppliers, and customers to determine their Y2K compliance.  This 
phase of preparedness should be completed by June 30, 1999.  The Company has
completed a contingency plan with testings and training continuing.  Total 
expenditures for Y2K compliance has been approximately $175,000 with an 
additional $25,000 expected by year-end.
