Consolidated Statements of Operations, Comprehensive Income and Cash Flows for
the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2000 and September 30, 1999
have been prepared by Greater Bay Bancorp and are not audited. The results of

     The unaudited financial information presented was prepared on the same
basis as the supplemental consolidated audited financial statements for the year
ended December 31, 1999 included in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July
26, 2000. The supplemental consolidated financial statements include the

statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results
of operations and balances for the interim period presented. The accounting and
reporting policies of the Company conform to generally accepted accounting
principles and the prevailing practices within the banking industry.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

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

Segment Information

     In 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 131 "Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information" ("SFAS No. 131".) SFAS No. 131 supersedes
SFAS No. 14, "Financial Reporting for Segments of a Business Enterprise",
replacing the "industry segment" approach with the "management" approach. The
management approach designates the internal organization that is used by
management for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the
source of the Company's reportable segments. SFAS No. 131 also requires
disclosures about products and services, geographic areas, and major customers.
The adoption of SFAS No. 131 did not affect results of operations or financial
position but did affect the disclosure of segment information.

NOTE 4--PER SHARE DATA

     Net income per share is stated in accordance with SFAS No. 128 "Earnings
Per Share". Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted
net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average
number of common shares plus common equivalent shares outstanding including
dilutive stock options. All periods presented include the effect of the 2-for-1
stock split effective on October 4, 2000.

     The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerators and
denominators of the basic and diluted net income per share computations for the
three and nine months ended September 2000 and 1999.

NOTE 5--ACTIVIY OF BUSINESS SEGMENTS

     The Company adopted SFAS No. 131. The accounting policies of the segments
are the same as those described in the "Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies." Segment data includes intersegment revenue, as well as charges
allocating all corporate-headquarters costs to each of its operating segments.
The Company evaluates the performances of its segments and allocates resources
to them based on net interest income, other income, net income before income
taxes, total assets and deposits.

     The Company is organized primarily along community banking and trust
divisions. Fourteen of the divisions have been aggregated into the "community
banking" segment. Community banking provides a range of commercial banking
services to small and medium-sized businesses, real estate developers, property
managers, business executives, professional and other individuals. The trust
division has been shown as the "trust operations" segment. The Company's
business is conducted principally in the U.S.; foreign operations are not
material.

     The following table shows each segment's key operating results and
financial position for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999:

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

     Net income for the third quarter of 2000 increased 3.0% to $12.1 million,
or $0.29 per diluted share, compared to net income of $11.8 million, or $0.30
per diluted share, for the third quarter of 1999. The third quarter 2000 results
included nonrecurring warrant income of $2.8 million ($1.6 million, net of
taxes) compared to $0 during the third quarter of 1999. In addition, the third
quarter of 2000 included merger and other related nonrecurring costs of $11.4
million ($7.0 million, net of taxes) compared to $0 in the third quarter of
1999.

     Income, including nonrecurring warrant income and before nonrecurring
merger related expenses and extraordinary items, increased 62.7% to $19.2
million, or $0.46 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2000, compared to
$11.8 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 1999.

     The Company's core earnings for the third quarter of 2000 increased 49.1%
to $17.6 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, compared to $11.8 million, or
$0.30 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 1999. Based on its core
earnings for the third quarter of 2000, the Company's return on average
shareholders' equity was 24.56% and its return on average assets was 1.62%.
During the third quarter of 1999, the Company's core earnings resulted in a
return on average shareholders' equity of 22.70% and a return on average assets
of 1.46%.

     The 49.1% increase in core earnings during the third quarter of 2000 as
compared to 1999 was the result of significant growth in loans and investments.
For the third quarter of 2000, net interest income increased 38.7% as compared
to the third quarter of 1999. This increase was primarily due to a 45.0%
increase in average interest-earning assets for the third quarter of 2000 as
compared to the third quarter of 1999. The increases in loans, trust assets and
deposits also contributed to the 41.5% increase in loan and international
banking fees, service charges and other fees, and trust fees. Increases in
operating expenses were required to service and support the Company's growth. As
a result, increases in revenue were partially offset for the third quarter of
2000 by a 9.5% increase in recurring operating expenses, as compared to the
third quarter of 1999.

     Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 increased 36.3% to
$38.6 million, or $0.94 per diluted share, compared to net income of $28.3
million, or $0.74 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30,
1999. The nine months ended September 30, 2000 results included nonrecurring
warrant income of $12.1 million ($7.1 million, net of taxes) compared to
$230,000 ($135,000 net of taxes and other related expenses) during the nine
months ended September 30, 1999. In addition, the nine months ended September
30, 2000 included merger and other related nonrecurring cost of $25.5 million
($16.2 million, net of taxes) compared to $4.0 million ($2.5 million, net of
taxes) in the nine months ended September 30, 1999.

     Income, including nonrecurring warrant income and before nonrecurring
merger related expenses and extraordinary items, increased 77.3% to $54.8
million, or $1.33 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30,
2000, compared to $30.9 million, or $0.81 per diluted share, in the nine months
ended September 30, 1999.

     The Company's core earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2000,
increased 54.8% to $47.7 million, or $1.16 per diluted share, compared to $30.8
million, or $0.80 per diluted share, in the nine months ended September 30,
1999. Based on its core earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2000,
the Company's return on average shareholders' equity was 23.65% and its return
on average assets was 1.58%. During the nine months ended September 30, 1999,
the Company's core earnings resulted in a return on average shareholders' equity
of 20.54% and a return on average assets of 1.38%.

     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

     The 54.8% increase in core earnings in the nine months ended September 30,
2000 as compared to 1999 was the result of significant growth in loans,
investments and trust assets. For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, net
interest income increased 42.1% as compared to the nine months ended September
30, 1999. This increase was primarily due to a 36.1% increase in average
interest-earning assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 as compared
to the nine months ended September 30, 1999. The increases in loans, trust
assets and deposits also contributed to the 34.1% increase in loan and
international banking fees, service charges and other fees, and trust fees.
Other income includes $18.1 million in appreciation recognized on the conversion
of equity securities received in the settlement of a loan into a publicly traded
equity security. Increases in operating expenses were required to service and
support the Company's growth. As a result, increases in revenue were partially
offset for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 by a 13.8% increase in
recurring operating expenses, as compared to the nine months ended September 30,
1999.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

     Net interest income, excluding interest expense on the Trust Preferred
Securities issued by the Company ("capital securities"), for the third quarter
of 2000 was $57.4 million, a $3.2 million increase over the second quarter of
2000 and a $16.8 million increase over the third quarter of 1999. The increase
from the third quarter of 1999 to the third quarter of 2000 was primarily due to
the $1.2 billion, or 45.0% increase in average interest-earning assets. The
increase in net interest income was slightly offset by a 5 basis points decrease
in the Company's net yield on interest-earning assets, excluding capital
securities, from 5.82% in the third quarter of 1999 to 5.71% in the third
quarter of 2000. The increase from the second quarter of 2000 to the third
quarter of 2000 was due to the $204.5 million, or 5.4% increase in average
interest-earning assets and a 3 basis points increase in the Company's net yield
on interest-earning assets, excluding capital securities, from 5.74% in the
second quarter of 2000 to 5.71% in the third quarter of 2000.

     The most significant impact on the Company's net interest income between
periods is derived from the interaction of changes in the volume of and rate
earned or paid on interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The
volume of interest-earning asset dollars in loans and investments, compared to
the volume of interest-bearing liabilities represented by deposits and
borrowings, combined with the spread, produces the changes in the net interest
income between periods. The table below sets forth, for the quarters indicated,
a summary of the changes in interest income and interest expense due to average
asset and liability balances (volume) and due to changes in average interest
rates (rate). Changes in interest income and expense which are not attributable
specifically to either volume or rate, are allocated proportionately between
both variances. Nonaccrual loans are excluded from average loans. The impact of
capital securities is not included in this table.

OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)


The Quarter Ended September 30, 2000 Compared to September 30, 1999
-------------------------------------------------------------------

         Interest income for the third quarter ended September 30, 2000
increased 47.7% to $92.6 million from $62.7 million in the same period in 1999.
This was primarily due to the $33.2 million favorable volume variance which
resulted from a $1.2 billion, or 45.0%, increase in average interest-earning
assets over the comparable prior year period. The average yield on interest-
earning assets increased 19 basis points to 9.21% in the third quarter of 2000
from 9.02% in the same period of 1999 primarily due to the increase on the
yields on loans. Average yields on loans decreased 35 basis points to 10.05% in
the quarter ended September 30, 2000 from 10.40% for the same period in 1999,
primarily as a result of decreases in market rates of interest.

         Interest expense, excluding capital securities, in the third quarter of
2000 increased 58.9% to $35.3 million from $22.2 million for the same period in
1999. The increase is the result of increased interest-bearing liabilities,
which rose to $2.9 billion for the third quarter of 2000, as compared to $2.3
billion for the quarter ended September 30, 1999, and a 104 basis point increase
in the cost of funds which increased to 4.85% in the third quarter of 2000.

         During the third quarter of 2000, average noninterest-bearing deposits
increased to $817.9 million from $591.5 million in the same period in 1999.
Average noninterest-bearing deposits comprised 22.7% of total deposits for the
third quarter in 2000, compared to 20.9% for the same period in 1999.

         As a result of the foregoing, the Company's interest rate spread,
excluding capital securities, was 4.37% in the third quarter of 2000 compared to
5.21% in the same quarter one year earlier and the net yield on interest-earning
assets decreased to 5.71% from 5.82%.

The Quarter Ended September 30, 2000 Compared to June 30, 2000
--------------------------------------------------------------

         Interest income increased 10.8% to $92.6 million for the third quarter
of 2000, as compared to $83.6 million for the previous quarter. This was
primarily due to the $3.5 million favorable volume variance which resulted from
a $204.5 million, or 5.4%, increase in average interest-earning assets over the
prior quarter. The average yield on interest-earning assets increased 35 basis
points to 9.21% in the third quarter of 2000 from 8.86% in the previous quarter
primarily due to the increase on the yields on loans. Average yields on loans
increased 22 basis points to 10.05% in the quarter ended September 30, 2000 from
9.83% for the quarter ended June 30, 2000, primarily as a result of increases in
market rates of interest.

         Interest expense, excluding capital securities, in the third quarter of
2000 increased 19.7% to $35.3 million from $29.5 million in the prior quarter.
The increase is the result of increased interest-bearing liabilities, which rose
to $2.9 billion for the third quarter of 2000, as compared to $2.8 billion for
the prior quarter and a 65 basis point increase in the cost of funds which
increased to 4.85% in the third quarter of 2000.

         During the third quarter of 2000, average noninterest-bearing deposits
increased to $817.9 million from $785.7 million in the second quarter of 2000.
Average noninterest-bearing deposits comprised 22.7% of total deposits for the
third quarter in 2000 as compared to 22.3% from the prior quarter.

         As a result of the foregoing, the Company's interest rate spread,
excluding capital securities, was 4.37% in the third quarter of 2000 compared to
4.67% in the prior quarter and the net yield on interest-earning assets
increased to 5.71% from 5.74%.

Net Interest Income - Year to Date

     Net interest income, excluding capital securities, for the nine months
ended September 30, 2000 was $159.4 million, a $48.1 million increase over the
nine months ended September 30, 1999. The increase was due to the $998.8
million, or 36.1%, increase in average interest-earning assets. The increase in
net interest income was further enhanced by a 27 basis points increase in the
Company's net yield on interest-earning assets, excluding capital securities,
from 5.39% in the nine months ended September 30, 1999 to 5.66% in the nine
months ended September 30, 2000.

     The table below sets forth, for the nine months indicated, a summary of the
changes in interest income and interest expense due to average asset and
liability balances (volume) and due to changes in average interest rates (rate).
Changes in interest income and expense which are not attributable specifically
to either volume or rate, are allocated proportionately between both variances.
Nonaccrual loans are excluded from average loans. The impact of capital
securities is not included in this table.

OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

The Nine Months Ended September 30, 2000 Compared to Nine Months Ended September
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
30, 1999
--------

     Interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 increased
46.7% to $252.5 million from $172.1 million in the same period in 1999. This was
primarily due to the $47.9 million favorable volume variance which resulted from
a $998.8 million, or 36.1%, increase in average interest-earning assets over the
comparable prior year. The average yield on interest-earning assets increased 63
basis points to 8.96% in the nine months ended September 30, 2000 from 8.33% in
the same period of 1999 primarily due to the increase on the yields on loans.
Average yields on loans increased 49 basis points to 9.90% in the nine months
ended September 30, 2000 from 9.41% for the same period in 1999, primarily as a
result of increases in market rates of interest.

     Interest expense, excluding capital securities, in the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 increased 53.2% to $93.0 million from $60.7 million for the
same period in 1999. The increase is the result of increased average interest-
bearing liabilities, which rose to $2.8 billion for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000, as compared to $2.2 billion for the same period in 1999, and
a 67 basis point increase in the cost of funds which increased to 4.43% in the
nine months ended September 30, 2000.

     As a result of the foregoing, the Company's interest rate spread, excluding
capital securities, was 4.53% in the nine months ended September 30, 2000
compared to 4.56% in the same period one year earlier and the net yield on
interest-earning assets increased to 5.66% from 5.39%.

     Certain client service expenses were incurred by the Company with respect
to its noninterest-bearing liabilities. These expenses include courier and
armored car services, check supplies and other related items that are included
in operating expenses. Had they been included in interest expense, the impact of
these expenses on the Company's net yield on interest-earning assets would have
been as follows for each of the periods presented.

(1) Noninterest-bearing liabilities are included in cost of funds calculations
    to determine adjusted net yield of spread.

     The impact on the net yield on interest-earning assets is determined by
offsetting net interest income by the cost of client service expense, which
reduces the yield on interest-earning assets. The cost for client service
expense reflects the Company's efforts to manage its interest expense.

Provision for Loan Losses

     The provision for loan losses represents the current period credit cost
associated with maintaining an appropriate allowance for credit losses. The loan
loss provision for each period is dependent upon many factors, including loan
growth, net charge-offs, changes in the composition of the loan portfolio,
delinquencies, management's assessment of the quality of the loan portfolio, the
value of the underlying collateral on problem loans and the general economic
conditions in the Company's market area. Periodic fluctuations in the provision
for loan losses result from management's assessment of the adequacy of the
allowance for loan losses; however, actual loan losses may vary from current
estimates.

     Refer to the section "FINANCIAL CONDITION - Allowance for Loan Losses" for
a description of the methodology the Company uses in determining an adequate
allowance for loan losses.

     The provision for loan losses for the third quarter of 2000 was $7.7
million, compared to $3.9 million for the third quarter of 1999. In addition, in
connection with the Bank of Santa Clara merger, the Company made an additional
provision for loan losses of $3.9 million in the third quarter of 2000 to
conform to the Company's allowance methodology.

</TABLE>


         For the third quarter of 2000 as compared to the same period in 1999,
the increase in other income was a result of a $1.6 million increase in loan and
international banking fees and a $54,000 increase in trust fees. These increases
were a result of significant growth in total loans, total deposits and trust
assets. Other income for the first quarter of 2000 and the fourth quarter of
1999 includes $2.1 million and $3.1 million in appreciation recognized on equity
securities received in the settlement of a loan. As discussed further below, the
nonrecurring warrant income resulted from the sale of stock acquired from
clients in connection with financing activities.

         Other income for the third quarter of 2000 and the third quarter of
1999 included nonrecurring warrant income of $2.8 million and $0, respectively,
net of related employee incentives. The Company holds in excess of 130 warrant
positions. The Company has historically obtained rights to acquire stock, in the
form of warrants, in certain clients as part of negotiated credit facilities.
The Company may not be able to realize gains from these equity instruments in
future periods due to fluctuations in the market prices of the underlying common
stock of these companies. The timing and amount of income, if any, from the
disposition of client warrants typically depend upon factors beyond our control,
including the general condition of the public equity markets, levels of mergers
and acquisitions activity, and legal and contractual restrictions on our ability
to sell the underlying securities. Therefore, future gains cannot be predicted
with any degree of accuracy and are likely to vary materially from period to
period. In addition, a significant portion of the income the Company realizes
from the disposition of client warrants may be offset by expenses related to our
efforts to build an infrastructure sufficient to support our present and future
business activities, as well as expenses incurred in evaluating and pursuing new
business opportunities, or by increases to the provision for loan losses.

</TABLE>


*Annualized

         Operating expenses totaled $37.8 million for the third quarter of 2000,
compared to $24.1 million for the third quarter of 1999. Operating expenses
included merger and other related nonrecurring costs of $11.4 million and $0 for
the third quarter of 2000 and 1999, respectively. Excluding these nonrecurring
items, operating expenses were $26.2 million and $24.1 million for these
periods. The ratio of operating expenses to average assets, before nonrecurring
items, was 2.43% for the third quarter of 2000 and 3.00% for the third quarter
of 1999.

         The efficiency ratio is computed by dividing total operating expenses
by net interest income and other income. An increase in the efficiency ratio
indicates that more resources are being utilized to generate the same (or
greater) volume of income while a decrease would indicate a more efficient
allocation of resources. The Company's efficiency ratio, excluding nonrecurring
items, for the third quarter of 2000 was 41.85%, compared to 51.42% for the
third quarter of 1999.

         As indicated by the improvements in the efficiency ratio and ratio of
total operating expenses to average assets, the Company has been able to achieve
increasing economies of scale. For the third quarter of 2000, average assets
increased 35.3% from the third quarter of 1999, while operating expenses,
excluding nonrecurring costs, increased only 8.5%. The Company believes that it
may not be able to sustain the low efficiency ratio that it achieved in the
third quarter of 2000. The Company believes that in the future the efficiency
ratio will stabilize at approximately 45%.

         Compensation and benefits expenses increased for the third quarter of
2000 to $15.0 million, compared to $13.4 million for the third quarter of 1999.
The increase in compensation and benefits is due primarily to the addition of
personnel to accommodate the growth of the Company.

         The increase in occupancy and equipment; telephone, postage, and
supplies; marketing and promotion; and client service expense was related to the
Company's growth.

Income Taxes

         The Company's effective income tax rate for the third quarter of 2000
was 38.5%, compared to 37.6% in the third quarter of 1999. The effective rates
were lower than the statutory rate of 42.0% due to tax-exempt income on
municipal securities and state enterprise zone credits. The reductions were
partially offset by the impact of merger and other related nonrecurring costs.

         The Company's effective income tax rate for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 was 39.5%, compared to 38.1% in the nine months ended
September 30, 1999. The effective rates were lower than the statutory rate of
42.0% due to tax-exempt income on municipal securities and state enterprise zone
credits. The reductions were partially offset by the impact of merger and other
related nonrecurring costs.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

         Total assets increased 22.4% (29.9% annualized) to $4.3 billion at
September 30, 2000, compared to $3.5 billion at December 31, 1999. The increase
in the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was primarily due to increases in
the Company's loan portfolio funded by growth in deposits.

Loans

         Total gross loans increased 26.5% (35.3% annualized) to $3.0 billion at
September 30, 2000, compared to $2.4 billion at December 31, 1999. The increase
in the loan volume during the first nine months of 2000 was primarily due to the
continued strength of the economy in the Company's market areas coupled with the
business development efforts of the Company's relationship managers.

         The Company's loan portfolio is concentrated in commercial (primarily
manufacturing, service and technology) and real estate lending, with the balance
in consumer loans. While no specific industry concentration is considered
significant, the Company's lending operations are located in a market area that
is dependent on the technology and real estate industries and supporting service
companies. Thus, the Company's borrowers could be adversely impacted by a
downturn in these sectors of the economy. This could, in turn, reduce the demand
for loans and adversely impact the borrowers' abilities to repay their loans,
while also decreasing the Company's net interest margin.

         The following table presents the composition of the Company's loan
portfolio at the dates indicated.

Nonperforming and Classified Assets

         Management generally places loans on nonaccrual status when they become
90 days past due, unless they are well secured and in the process of collection.
When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, any interest previously accrued and
not collected is generally reversed from income. Loans are charged off when
management determines that collection has become unlikely. Restructured loans
are those where the Banks have granted a concession on the interest paid or
original repayment terms due to financial difficulties of the borrower. Other
real estate owned ("OREO") consists of real property acquired through
foreclosure on the related collateral underlying defaulted loans.

         The following table sets forth information regarding nonperforming
assets at the dates indicated.

         At September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, the Company had $14.9
million and $5.7 million in nonaccrual loans respectively. Interest income
foregone on nonaccrual loans outstanding totaled $320,000 and $131,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

         The Company records OREO at the lower of carrying value or fair value
less estimated costs to sell. Estimated losses that result from the ongoing
periodic valuation of these properties are charged to earnings through a
provision for losses on foreclosed property in the period in which they are
identified. OREO acquired through foreclosure had a carrying value of $395,000
and $271,000 at September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 respectively.

         The Company had $420,000 and $807,000 of restructured loans as of
September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, respectively. There were no principal
reduction concessions allowed on restructured loans during the third quarter of
2000 or 1999. Interest income from restructured loans totaled $12,000 and
$26,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
Foregone interest income, which totaled $0 and $0 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, would have been recorded as interest
income if the loans had accrued interest in accordance with their original terms
prior to the restructurings.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

         The Company has three classifications for problem loans: "substandard,"
"doubtful" and "loss." Substandard loans have one or more defined weaknesses and
are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Banks will sustain some
loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful loans have the weaknesses
of substandard loans with the additional characteristic that the weaknesses make
collection or liquidation in full on the basis of currently existing facts,
conditions and values questionable; and there is a high possibility of loss of
some portion of the principal balance. A loan classified as "loss" is considered
uncollectable and its continuance as an asset is not warranted.

         The following table sets forth the classified assets at the dates
indicated.

         With the exception of these classified assets, management was not aware
of any loans outstanding as of September 30, 2000 where the known credit
problems of the borrower would cause management to have serious doubts as to the
ability of such borrowers to comply with their present loan repayment terms and
which would result in such loans being included in nonperforming or classified
assets at some future date. Management cannot, however, predict the extent to
which economic conditions in the Company's market areas may worsen or the full
impact that such an environment may have on the Company's loan portfolio.
Accordingly, there can be no assurance that other loans will not become 90 days
or more past due, be placed on nonaccrual, become restructured loans, or other
real estate owned in the future.

Allowance For Loan Losses

         The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for
loan losses based on management's evaluation of risk inherent in the Company's
loan portfolio. The allowance is increased by provisions charged against
earnings and reduced by net loan charge-offs. Loans are charged-off when they
are deemed to be uncollectable; recoveries are generally recorded only when cash
payments are received.

         The following table sets forth information concerning the Company's
allowance for loan losses at the dates and for the quarters indicated.

       acquired entities to the Company's reserve methodologies, which are
       included in mergers and related nonrecurring costs.

          The Company employs a systematic methodology for determining its
allowance for loan losses, which includes a monthly review process and monthly
adjustment of the allowance. The Company's process includes a periodic loan by
loan review for loans that are individually evaluated for impairment as well as
detailed reviews of other loans (either individually or in pools). This includes
an assessment of known problem loans, potential problem loans, and other loans
that exhibit indicators of deterioration.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

          The Company's methodology incorporates a variety of risk
considerations, both quantitative and qualitative, in establishing an allowance
for loan losses that management believes is appropriate at each reporting date.
Quantitative factors include the Company's historical loss experience,
delinquency and charge-off trends, collateral values, changes in non-performing
loans, and other factors. Quantitative factors also incorporate known
information about individual loans including borrowers' sensitivity to interest
rate movements and borrowers' sensitivity to quantifiable external factors
including commodity and finished goods prices as well as acts of nature
(earthquakes, fires, etc.) that occur in a particular period.

          Qualitative factors include the general economic environment in the
Company's marketplace, and in particular, the state of the technology industries
based in the Silicon Valley and other key industries in the San Francisco Bay
Area. Size and complexity of individual credits in relation to lending officers'
background and experience levels, loan structure, extent and nature of waivers
of existing loan policies and pace of portfolio growth are other qualitative
factors that are considered in the Company's methodology.

          The Company's methodology is, and has been, consistently followed.
However, as the Company adds new products, increases in complexity, and expands
its geographic coverage, the Company intends to enhance its methodology to keep
pace with the size and complexity of the loan portfolio. In this regard, the
Company has periodically engaged outside firms to independently assess the
Company's methodology, and on an ongoing basis the Company engages outside firms
to perform independent credit reviews of its loan portfolio. Management believes
that the Company's systematic methodology continues to be appropriate given the
Company's size and level of complexity.

          While this methodology utilizes historical and other objective
information, the establishment of the allowance for loan losses and the
classification of loans is, to some extent, based on the judgment and experience
of management. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is
adequate as of September 30, 2000. However, future changes in circumstances,
economic conditions or other factors could cause management to increase or
decrease the allowance for loan losses as necessary.

          At September 30, 2000, the allowance for loan losses was $65.7
million, consisting of a $37.2 million allocated allowance and a $28.5 million
unallocated allowance. The unallocated allowance recognizes the model and
estimation risk associated with the allocated allowances, and management's
evaluation of various conditions, the effects of which are not directly measured
in determining the allocated allowance. The evaluation of the inherent loss
regarding these conditions involves a higher degree of uncertainty because they
are not identified with specific problem credits or portfolio segments. The
conditions evaluated in connection with the unallocated allowance include the
following at the balance sheet date:

 .    The strength and duration of the current business cycle and existing
     general economic and business conditions affecting our key lending areas;
     economic and business conditions affecting our key lending portfolios;

 .    Seasoning of the loan portfolio, growth in loan volumes and changes in loan
     terms; and

 .    The results of bank regulatory examinations.

Liquidity and Cash Flow

         The objective of liquidity management is to maintain each Bank's
ability to meet the day-to-day cash flow requirements of its clients who either
wish to withdraw funds or require funds to meet their credit needs. The Company
must manage its liquidity position to allow the Banks to meet the needs of their
clients while maintaining an appropriate balance between assets and liabilities
to meet the return on investment expectations of its shareholders. The Company
monitors the sources and uses of funds on a daily basis to maintain an
acceptable liquidity position. In addition to liquidity from core deposits and
repayments and maturities of loans and investments, the Banks sell securities
under agreements to repurchase and borrow overnight federal funds and, to a
lesser extent utilize brokered deposit lines.

         Greater Bay is a company separate and apart from the Banks. It must
provide for its own liquidity. Substantially all of Greater Bay's revenues are
obtained from management fees, interest received on its investments and
dividends declared and paid by the Banks. There are statutory and regulatory
provisions that could limit the ability of the Banks to pay dividends to Greater
Bay. At September 30, 2000, the Banks had approximately $90.7 million in the
aggregate available to be paid as dividends to Greater Bay. Management of
Greater Bay believes that such restrictions will not have an impact on the
ability of Greater Bay to meet its ongoing cash obligations. As of September 30,
2000, Greater Bay did not have any material commitments for capital
expenditures.

         Net cash provided by operating activities, consisting primarily of net
income, totaled $58.5 million and $40.8 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Cash used for investing activities
totaled $868.6 million and $518.5 million for the nine months ended September
30, 2000 and 1999, respectivley. The funds used for investing activities
primarily represent increases in loans and investment securities for each period
reported.

         For the nine months ended September 30, 2000 net cash provided by
financing activities was $728.2 million, compared to $568.7 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1999. Historically, the primary financing activity of
the Company has been through deposits. For the nine months ended September 30,
2000 and 1999, deposit gathering activities generated cash of $648.5 million and
$582.0 million, respectively. This represents a total of 89.1% and 102.3% of the
financing cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively. The Company has supplemented its financing activities through the
issuance of Trust Preferred Securities and common stock. See "Capital Resources"
for further discussion below.

Capital Resources

         Shareholders' equity at September 30, 2000 increased to $282.9 million
from $238.0 million at December 31, 1999. Greater Bay paid dividends of $0.25
and $0.24 per share (as restated for the 2-for-1 stock split declared for
shareholders of record at October 4, 2000) during the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 and the twelve months ended December 31, 1999, respectively,
excluding dividends paid by subsidiaries prior to the completion of their
mergers.

         In the first quarter of 2000 and the fourth quarter of 1999 the Company
issued in a private placement 648,648 and 1,070,000 shares of common stock (as
restated for the 2-for-1 stock split effective on October 4, 2000),
respectively. The proceeds from the offering were $11.5 million and $19.0
million, respectively, net of issuance costs. Greater Bay used a portion of the
net proceeds from the offering to supplement the capital of the Banks and
intends to use the remainder for general corporate purposes.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

         On March 23, 2000, the Company completed an offering of 10.875% capital
securities in an aggregate amount of $9.5 million through GBB Capital III, a
wholly owned trust subsidiary formed for the purpose of the offering. On May 19,
2000, the Company completed an additional offering of 10.75% capital securities
in an aggregate amount of $41.0 million through GBB Capital IV, a wholly owned
trust subsidiary formed for the purpose of the offering. The securities issued
in the offering were sold in a private transaction pursuant to an applicable
exemption from registration under the Securities Act. Under applicable
regulatory guidelines, the TPS qualifies as Tier 1 capital up to a maximum of
25% of Tier I capital. Any additional portion of TPS would qualify as Tier 2
capital. As of September 30, 2000, $98.7 million of the TPS qualified as Tier I
capital. As the Company's shareholders' equity increases, the amount of Tier I
capital that can be comprised of TPS will increase.

         A banking organization's total qualifying capital includes two
components, core capital (Tier 1 capital) and supplementary capital (Tier 2
capital). Core capital, which must comprise at least half of total capital,
includes common shareholders' equity, qualifying perpetual preferred stock,
trust preferred securities and minority interests, less goodwill. Supplementary
capital includes the allowance for loan losses (subject to certain limitations),
other perpetual preferred stock, trust preferred securities, certain other
capital instruments and term subordinated debt. The Company's major capital
components are shareholders' equity and TPS in core capital, and the allowance
for loan losses in supplementary capital.

         At September 30, 2000, the minimum risk-based capital requirements to
be considered adequately capitalized were 4.0% for core capital and 8.0% for
total capital. Federal banking regulators have also adopted leverage capital
guidelines to supplement risk-based measures. The leverage ratio is determined
by dividing Tier 1 capital as defined under the risk-based guidelines by average
total assets (not risk-adjusted) for the preceding quarter.

         Pursuant to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act
of 1991, the Federal Reserve, the OCC and the FDIC have adopted regulations
setting forth a five-tier system for measuring the capital adequacy of the
financial institutions they supervise. The capital levels of the Company at
September 30, 2000 and the two highest levels recognized under these regulations
are as follows. These ratios all exceeded the well-capitalized guidelines shown
below.

                                                      Tier 1          Total

         In addition, at September 30, 2000, each of the Banks had levels of
capital that exceeded the well-capitalized guidelines.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 .    The Company's financial performance is impacted by, among other factors,
interest rate risk and credit risk. The Company utilizes no derivatives to
mitigate its credit risk, relying instead on loan review and an adequate loan
loss reserve (see "--Allowance for Loan Losses" herein).

 .    Interest rate risk is the risk of loss in value due to changes in interest
rates. This risk is addressed by the Company's Asset Liability Management
Committee ("ALCO"), which consists of senior management representatives. The
ALCO monitors and considers methods of managing interest rate risk by monitoring
changes in net portfolio values and net interest income under various interest
rate scenarios. The ALCO attempts to manage the various components of the
Company's balance sheet to minimize the impact of sudden and sustained changes
in interest rates on net portfolio value and net interest income.

     The Company's exposure to interest rate risk is reviewed on at least a
quarterly basis by the Board of Directors, the Board Asset Liability Committee
and the ALCO. Interest rate risk exposure is measured using interest rate
sensitivity analysis to determine the Company's change in net portfolio value in
the event of hypothetical changes in interest rates and interest liabilities. If
potential changes to net portfolio value and net interest income resulting from
hypothetical interest rate swings are not within the limits established by the
Board, the Board may direct management to adjust its asset and liability mix to
bring interest rate risk within Board-approved limits.

     In order to reduce the exposure to interest rate fluctuations, the Company
has developed strategies to manage its liquidity, lengthen the effective
maturities of certain interest-earning assets, and shorten the effective
maturities of certain interest-bearing liabilities. The Company has focused its
investment activities on securities with generally medium-term (8 years to 12
years) maturities or average lives. The Company has utilized short-term
borrowings and deposit marketing programs to adjust the term to repricing of its
liabilities. In addition, the Company has utilized an interest rate swap to
manage the interest rate risk of the TPS II securities. This interest rate swap
is not an "ineffective hedge" and is accounted for under Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities".

     Interest rate sensitivity analysis is used to measure the Company's
interest rate risk by computing estimated changes in net portfolio value of its
cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items in the event of
a range of assumed changes in market interest rates. Net portfolio value
represents the market value of portfolio equity and is equal to the market value
of assets minus the market value of liabilities, with adjustments made for off-
balance sheet items. This analysis assesses the risk of loss in market rate
sensitive instruments in the event of sudden and sustained increases and
decreases in market interest rates of 100 basis points. The following table
presents the Company's projected change in net portfolio value for these rate
shock levels as of September 30, 2000. All market rate sensitive instruments
presented in this table are classified as either held to maturity or available
for sale. The Company has no trading securities.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK (CONTINUED)

         The preceding table indicates that at September 30, 2000, in the event
of a sudden and sustained decrease in prevailing market interest rates, the
Company's net portfolio value would be expected to increase. However, the
foregoing analysis does not attribute additional value to the Company's
noninterest-bearing deposit balances, which have a significantly higher market
value during periods of increasing interest rates.

         Net portfolio value is calculated based on the net present value of
estimated cash flows utilizing market prepayment assumptions and market rates of
interest provided by independent broker quotations and other public sources.

         Computation of forecasted effects of hypothetical interest rate changes
is based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of market interest
rates, loan prepayments and deposit decay, and should not be relied upon as
indicative of actual future results. Further, the computations do not
contemplate any actions the ALCO could undertake in response to changes in
interest rates.

         Certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented
in the computation of net portfolio value. Actual values may differ from those
projections presented should market conditions vary from assumptions used in the
calculation of the net portfolio value. Certain assets, such as adjustable-rate
loans, which represent one of the Company's loan products, have features which
restrict changes in interest rate on a short-term basis and over the life of the
assets. In addition, the proportion of adjustable-rate loans in the Company's
portfolio could decrease in future periods if market interest rates remain at or
decrease below current levels due to refinancing activity. Further, in the event
of a change in interest rates, prepayment and early withdrawal levels would
likely deviate significantly from those assumed in the net portfolio value.
Finally, the ability of many borrowers to repay their adjustable-rate mortgage
loans may decrease in the event of significant interest rate increases.

Interest Rate Risk Management

         Interest rate risk management is a function of the repricing
characteristics of the Company's portfolio of assets and liabilities. Interest
rate risk management focuses on the maturity structure of assets and liabilities
and their repricing characteristics during periods of changes in market interest
rates. Effective interest rate risk management seeks to ensure that both assets
and liabilities respond to changes in interest rates within an acceptable time
frame, thereby minimizing the effect of interest rate movements on net interest
income. Interest rate sensitivity is measured as the difference between the
volumes of assets and liabilities in the Company's current portfolio that are
subject to repricing at various time horizons: one day or immediate, two days to
nine months, seven to twelve months, one to three years, four to five years,
over five years and on a cumulative basis. The differences are known as interest
sensitivity gaps.

</TABLE>

         The foregoing table indicates that the Company had a negative one year
gap of $498.3 million, or 11.5% of total assets, at September 30, 2000. In
theory, this would indicate that at September 30, 2000, $498.3 million more in
liabilities than assets would reprice if there was a change in interest rates
over the next year. Thus, if interest rates were to increase, the gap would tend
to result in a lower net interest margin. Conversely, if interest rates
decreased, the gap may result in increased net interest margin. However, changes
in the mix of earning assets or supporting liabilities can either increase or
decrease the net interest margin without affecting interest rate sensitivity. In
addition, the interest rate spread between an asset and its supporting liability
can vary significantly while the timing of repricing of both the asset and its
supporting liability can remain the same, thus impacting net interest income.
This characteristic is referred to as basis risk and, generally, relates to the
repricing characteristics of short-term funding sources such as certificates of
deposit.

         The impact of fluctuations in interest rates on the Company's projected
next twelve month net interest income and net income has been evaluated through
an interest rate shock simulation modeling analysis that includes various
assumptions regarding the repricing relationship of assets and liabilities, as
well as the anticipated changes in loan and deposit volumes over differing rate
environments. As of September 30, 2000, the analysis indicates that the
Company's net interest income would increase a maximum of 7.94% if rates rose
200 basis points immediately and would decrease a maximum of 7.69% if rates
declined 200 basis points immediately. In addition, the results indicate that
notwithstanding the Company's gap position, which would indicate that the net
interest margin increases when rates rise, the Company's net interest margin
decreases during rising rate periods due to the basis risk imbedded in the
Company's interest- bearing liabilities.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK (CONTINUED)

         In addition, while this analysis indicates the probable impact of
interest rate movements on the Company's net interest income, it does not take
into consideration other factors that would impact this analysis. These factors
would include management's and ALCO's actions to mitigate the impact to the
Company and the impact of the Company's credit risk profile during periods of
significant interest rate movements.

         Varying interest rate environments can create unexpected changes in
prepayment levels of assets and liabilities which are not reflected in the
interest sensitivity analysis table. These prepayments may have significant
effects on the Company's net interest margin. Because of these factors and
others, an interest sensitivity gap report may not provide a complete assessment
of the Company's exposure to changes in interest rates.

Recent Accounting Developments

New Accounting Pronouncement -In September 2000, the FASB issued Statement 140,
----------------------------
Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments
of Liabilities. The new Statement replaces Statement 125, issued in June 1996.
It revises the standards for accounting for securitizations and other transfers
of financial assets and collateral and requires certain disclosures, but it
carries over most of Statement 125's provisions without reconsideration.

This Statement is effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and
extinguishments of liabilities occurring after March 31, 2001.  This Statement
is effective for recognition and reclassification of collateral and for
disclosures relating to securitization transactions and collateral for fiscal
years ending after December 15, 2000.  Disclosures about securitizations and
collateral accepted need not be reported for periods ending on or before
December 15, 2000, for which financial statements are presented for comparative
purposes.  This Statement is to be applied prospectively with certain
exceptions.

Implementation of FASB Statement No. 140 is not expected to have a material
effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

Business Combinations - In September 1999, the Financial Accounting Standards
---------------------
Board ("FASB") issued an Exposure Draft of a proposed Statement, Business
Combinations and Intangible Assets. The Board is currently redeliberating the
provisions in that proposed Statement. The FASB is in the process of researching
and discussing the various alternatives proposed by constituents about the best
method of accounting for goodwill. The FASB expects to discuss the accounting
for goodwill and other issues related to the purchase method at public meetings
through November 2000. The FASB will redeliberate the related issue of whether
to retain the pooling method, but not until it has reached a set of tentative
decisions with respect to the accounting for goodwill.  The FASB will not make a
final decision about the Exposure Draft or consider whether to issue a final
standard until it has addressed all of the substantive issues raised by
constituents, including Members of Congress, and has considered the entire set
of tentative decisions reached during its redeliberations. While the FASB
currently estimates that it will be able to complete its redeliberations in
January 2001, that estimate may not be met depending on the progress of its
redeliberations. The FASB has no "deadline" for completing the project; however,
they currently expect to issue a final Statement near the end of the first
quarter of 2001.

A portion of the Company's business strategy is to pursue acquisition
opportunities so as to expand its market presence and maintain growth levels.  A
change in accounting for business combinations could have a negative impact on
the Company's ability to realize those business strategies.
