NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The unaudited consolidated financial statements of Civic BanCorp and
subsidiary (the Company) have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. In the
opinion of management, all necessary adjustments have been made to fairly
present the financial position, results of operations, cash flows and
comprehensive income for the interim periods presented. These unaudited
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997.
The results of operations and cash flows are not necessarily indicative of
those expected for the complete fiscal year.
2. NEW PRONOUNCEMENTS
On January 1, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 130 "Reporting Comprehensive
Income." This statement establishes standards for reporting and displaying
comprehensive income and its components in the consolidated financial
statements. It does not require a specific format for the statements, but
requires the Company to display an amount representing total comprehensive
income for the period in that financial statement.
In June 1997, the FASB issued FAS No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information." This statement establishes standards for
reporting information about operating segments in annual reports and in
interim financial reports issued to shareholders. The statement is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company has adopted
FAS No. 131 but does not have multiple industry segments as defined in FAS
No. 131.
In February 1998, the FASB issued FAS No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures About
Pensions and Other Post Retirement Benefits." FAS No. 132 changes disclosure
only on applicable defined benefit pension or post retirement plans. The
statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. At
this time, the Company does not have a defined benefit pension or post
retirement plan.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 AND 1997
OVERVIEW
For the three months ended March 31, 1998, the Company reported net income of
$1,175,000, or $.24 earnings per diluted share compared to a net income of
$1,050,000 or $.22 earnings per diluted share for the same period of the prior
year. The annualized return on average assets was 1.43% for the three months
ended March 31, 1998 compared to 1.47% for the same period of the prior year.
The annualized return on average shareholders' equity for the three months ended
March 31, 1998 and 1997 was 11.96% and 12.19%, respectively.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 1998 was $4.8 million,
increasing $534,000 or 12.5% from net interest income of $4.3 million for the
same period in 1997. The increase in net interest income is primarily due to the
increase in the volume of earning assets which was partially offset by an
increase in the volume of interest bearing liabilities.
7
<PAGE>
Total interest income for the first three months of 1998 equaled $6.8 million,
an increase of $914,000 from interest income earned in the same period in 1997.
The increase in total interest income is primarily attributed to the increase in
volume of earning assets. Average earning assets increased $40.9 million or
15.3% to $307.4 million in the first quarter of 1998 compared to $266.5 million
in the first quarter of 1997.
Total interest expense for the first three months of 1998 equaled $2.0 million
and increased $.4 million or 23.2% from the $1.6 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1997 due to an increase of $28.1 million or 15.8% in the volume
on interest bearing deposits. Average savings and time deposits as a percentage
of total average deposits increased to 36.3% from 27.0% for the three months
ended 1998 and 1997, respectively.

Net Interest Margin
The net interest margin declined 17 basis points to 6.46% for the first quarter
of 1998 from 6.63% for the same period of the prior year. The decrease in the
margin is attributed primarily to the growth in time deposits. Average time
deposits as a percentage of total average interest bearing deposits increased to
50.4% for the first quarter of 1998 from 38.1% for the same quarter of the prior
year. Additionally, the average rate paid on time deposits increased to 5.20%
for the first quarter of 1998 from 5.04% for the same period of the prior year
due to a higher interest rate environment for deposits.

<PAGE>
Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 1998 was
$38,000, an increase of $13,000 or 52.0% from the three months ended March 31,
1997. The increase in the provision was based on the growth in the loan
portfolio.
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income for the three months ended March 31, 1998 was $237,000, an
increase of $20,000 or 9.2% from the three months ended March 31, 1997. The
increase in customer service fees, the largest component of other income, is
attributed to the increase in deposits and foreign trade transaction volume.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense totaled $3.0 million for the three months ended March 31,
1998, an increase of $201,000 or 7.1% from $2.8 million for the same period of
the prior year. Salaries and employee benefits, the largest component of
noninterest expense increased $191,000 or 11.6% due to additional staff, normal
merit increases, increased employee benefit costs and an increase in the
marketing and management incentive accruals. Full time equivalent personnel
numbered 107 on March 31, 1998 compared to 103 on March 31, 1997. Occupancy
expenses increased due to normal rent escalations and the addition of the Palo
Alto office in June 1997.
For the three months ended March 31, 1998 the Company incurred expenses of
$3,000 associated with managing, maintaining and liquidating foreclosed assets
compared to $24,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997.
The following table summarizes the significant components of noninterest expense
for the dates indicated.

Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes for the first quarter of 1998 increased to
$795,000 from $580,000 for the same quarter of the prior year. These provisions
represent effective tax rates of 40% and 36%, respectively. The effective rate
has been increased for 1998 due to the reduced impact of tax exempt municipal
securities on the larger net income.

<PAGE>
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Loans
Average loans for the first quarter of 1998 increased $36.9 million or 19.6% to
$225.1 million compared to $188.2 million for the same quarter of 1997 due to an
improving economy and an overall increase in loan demand. However, loans
outstanding at March 31, 1998 have decreased $11.6 million to $221.4 million
from $233.0 million at December 31, 1997. The decrease in loans outstanding
during the first quarter was due to pay-offs of certain construction loans as
anticipated combined with delays in the scheduled funding of new construction
loans due to inclement weather from the El Nino weather system. Additionally,
the Bank continues to scrutinize the loan portfolio and has elected to
discontinue financing of certain commercial clients due to quality concerns.
Real estate construction loans as a percentage of total loans outstanding were
4.4% at March 31, 1998 compared to 4.1% at March 31, 1997. The Bank maintains a
limited portfolio of real estate constructions loans as the risks associated
with real estate construction lending are generally considered to be higher than
risks associated with other forms of lending. However, the Bank continues to
fund real estate construction commitments on a limited basis with stringent
underwriting criteria.
Other real estate loans consist of mini-perm loans and land acquisition loans
which are primarily owner-occupied and are generally granted based on the rental
or lease income stream generated by the property. Other real estate loans
totaled $64.2 million at March 31, 1998, a decrease of $1.0 million or 1.5%
from March 31, 1997.
The following table sets forth the amount of loans outstanding in each category
and the percentage of total loans outstanding for each category as of the date

At March 31, 1998, the recorded investment in loans considered to be impaired
was $3,238,000 all of which were on a non-accrual basis. For the quarter ended
March 31, 1998, the average recorded investment in impaired loans was $3,311,000
and no interest income was recognized on impaired loans. If interest income on
those loans had been recognized, such income would have approximated $128,000.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level that management of the
Company considers to be adequate for losses that can be reasonably anticipated
in relation to the risk of future losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The
allowance is increased by charges to operating expenses and reduced by net
charge-offs.
In assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, management relies on
its ongoing review of the loan portfolio to identify potential problem loans in
a timely manner, ascertains whether there are probable losses which must be
charged off and assesses the aggregate risk characteristics of the portfolio.
Factors which influence management's judgment include the impact of forecasted
economic conditions, historical loan loss experience, the evaluation of risks
which vary with the type of loan, creditworthiness of the borrower and the value
of the underlying collateral. Management believes the allowance for loan losses
was adequate at March 31, 1998.

Potential Problem Loans
At March 31, 1998 there were no loans classified for regulatory purposes as
loss, doubtful, substandard or special mention that have not been disclosed in
the discussion above that (i) represented or resulted from trends or
uncertainties which management anticipated would have a material impact on
future operating results, liquidity, capital resources or (ii) represented
material credits about which management was aware of information that would
cause serious doubt as to the ability of the borrower to comply with the loan
repayment terms.
Investment Portfolio
The Company's investment portfolio is used primarily for liquidity purposes and
secondarily for investment income. The portfolio is primarily composed of U.S.
Treasury and U.S. government agency instruments and investment grade municipal
obligations. The company has increased its investment in municipal securities to
benefit from higher after-tax yields available on bank-qualified municipal
securities.

Deposits
For the three months ended March 31, 1998 average deposits totaled $285.7
million, an increase of $35.6 million or 14.2% from $250.1 million for the same
period in 1997. Management attributes the increase in deposits to an improving
economic environment and an increase in loan demand. It is the Company's
objective to become the primary bank for it's customers by servicing both the
loans and deposit needs. Accordingly, a correlation is expected between the loan
and the deposit volumes such that deposit volumes are expected to increase as
the loan volume increases.
For the three months ended March 31, 1998, average demand deposits totaled $80.1
million, an increase of $7.4 million or 10.2% from the same period in 1997.
Average demand deposits as a percentage of total deposits decreased to 28.1% for
the first quarter of 1998 from 29.1% for the same period of the prior year.
Average interest-bearing deposits increased $28.2 million or 15.9% for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 from the same period in 1997. Average interest-
bearing deposits comprised 71.9% of average total deposits for the three months
ended March 31, 1998 and 70.9% of average total deposits for the three months
ended March 31, 1997.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity
Liquidity management refers to the Bank's ability to acquire funds to meet loan
demand, fund deposit withdrawals and to service other liabilities.
To augment liquidity, the Bank has informal federal funds borrowing arrangements
with correspondent banks totaling $24.0 million and is a member of the Federal
Home Loan Bank of San Francisco and through membership has the ability to pledge
qualifying collateral for short term (up to six months) and long term (up to
five years) borrowing. At March 31, 1998 the Bank had no outstanding borrowings
against these arrangements. Additionally, at March 31, 1998, unpledged
government securities that are available to secure additional borrowing in the
form of reverse repurchase agreements totaled approximately $35.8 million. At
March 31, 1998 the Bank had no reverse repurchase agreements.
The liquidity position of the Company improved during the first quarter of 1998
due to the decline in loans. Funds provided by maturing loans contributed $9.9
million of cash and cash equivalents. Additionally, the increase in deposits
provided $1.9 million of cash and cash equivalents and net cash and cash
equivalents of $1.8 million were provided by operating activities.
The liquidity position of the Company may be expressed as a ratio defined as (a)
cash, Federal funds sold, other unpledged short term investments and marketable
securities, including those maturing after one year, divided by (b) total assets
less pledged securities. Using this definition at March 31, 1998, the Company
had a liquidity ratio of 29.8% as compared to 25.6% at December 31, 1997. The
increase in liquidity position reflects the increase in over-night Federal Funds
sold. Federal Funds sold at March 31, 1998 were $25.1 million compared to $13.2
million at December 31, 1997.
Capital Resources
Total shareholders' equity increased to $39.8 million at March 31, 1998 from
$38.7 million at December 31, 1997 reflecting retained income of $1,175,000 and
the recognition of $200,000 of deferred tax benefits from tax carryforward items
which arose prior to the date of the quasi-reorganization. These benefits were
partially offset by the market adjustment of securities available for sale and
the net reduction of $115,000 in common stock due to the repurchase of shares of
common stock in the market.
The Company and the Bank are subject to capital adequacy guidelines issued by
the Federal Reserve Board of Governors which require a minimum risk-based
capital ratio of 8%. At least 4% must be in the form of "Tier 1" capital and
consists of common equity, non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock and minority
interests in the equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries. "Tier 2" capital
consists of cumulative and limited-life preferred stock, mandatory convertible
securities, subordinated debt and, subject to
16
<PAGE>
certain limitations, the allowance for loan losses. General loan loss reserves
included in Tier 2 capital cannot exceed 1.25% of risk-weighted assets.
At March 31, 1998 the Company's risk-based capital ratio was 15.73%. The
following table presents the Company's risk-based capital and leverage ratios as
of March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997.
