2. Acquisitions:
Bank One, Texas, National Association Branch in Waxahachie, Texas
On June 16, 1995, Surety Bank entered into an agreement with Bank One,
Texas, National Association ("Bank One") for the acquisition of
certain assets and the assumption of certain liabilities by Surety
Bank relating to the branch of Bank One located in Waxahachie, Texas
(the "Waxahachie Branch").
The acquisition was consummated on September 28, 1995. Surety Bank
financed the acquisition through the use of internally-generated
funds.
At the closing, Surety Bank assumed deposits and other liabilities
totaling approximately $16,642,000. In addition, Surety Bank acquired
certain small business and consumer loans totaling approximately
$875,000, certain real property, furniture and equipment related to
the Waxahachie Branch totaling approximately $271,000, and cash and

deposit premium of two percent (2%) on the deposits assumed totaling

assumed. The Waxahachie Branch and deposits acquired in the
acquisition have been incorporated into Surety Bank's existing branch
network.
First National Bank, Midlothian, Texas
On February 28, 1996, the Company completed a primary and secondary
offering of its Common Stock. The offering was underwritten by Hoefer
& Arnett, Incorporated, a San Francisco investment banking firm. A
total of 2,388,759 shares of Common Stock were sold in the offering at
a price of $3.75 per share, including 288,759 shares of Common Stock
sold as an over-allotment and 174,939 shares of Common Stock held by a
shareholder of the Company. The proceeds from this offering were used
by the Company to finance the acquisition of First National Bank,
Midlothian, Texas, to retire the Company's outstanding bank debt and
for general corporate purposes.
On February 29, 1996 the Company completed the acquisition of First
National Bank, Midlothian, Texas ("First National"), through the
consolidation of First National and Surety Bank. In connection with
the transaction, Surety Bank changed its main office to the former

own former main office in Lufkin, Texas as a branch. Effective April
18, 1996, Surety Bank changed the location of its main office to

assets as of the same date were $121,262,000. In the transaction, a
subsidiary of Surety Bank was first merged with and into First
National's parent holding company, First Midlothian Corporation
("First Midlothian"), pursuant to which merger the shareholders of

5. Shareholders' Equity:
During the three months ended March 31, 1996, the Company completed a
primary and secondary offering of its Common Stock. The offering was
underwritten by Hoefer & Arnett, Incorporated, a San Francisco
investment banking firm. A total of 2,388,759 shares of Common Stock
were sold in the offering at a price of $3.75 per share, including
288,759 shares of Common Stock sold as an over-allotment. The proceeds
from this offering were used by the Company to finance the acquisition
of First National Bank, Midlothian, Texas, to retire the Company's
outstanding bank debt and for general corporate purposes.
6. Stock Option Plans:
The Company has two long-term incentive stock option plans for key
senior officers of the Company. The stock option plans provide these

Three Months Ended March 31, 1996 Versus Three Months Ended March 31, 1995.
Surety Capital Corporation ("Surety") and its wholly owned subsidiary, Surety
Bank, National Association (the "Bank"), reported an increase of 16.1% in net
earnings of $243,910 as compared to $210,364 during the three months ended March
31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Earnings per share were $0.06 and $0.07 for the
three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The decline in
earnings per share is principally attributed to Surety's loan-to-deposit ratio
as well as Surety's liquidity. The loan-to-deposit ratio indicates the
percentage of the Bank's interest earning assets which are invested in the loan
portfolio relative to deposits. The yields earned by Surety on its loan
portfolio during the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 were 12% and
11%, respectively, while the average cost of funds for Surety for the same
periods was 4% and 3%, respectively. The loan-to-deposit ratio as of March 31,
1996 and 1995 was 50% and 70%, respectively, and the drop is attributed to the
consolidation of First National Bank, Midlothian, Texas, with and into the Bank
(the "Midlothian Consolidation"). It is the goal of Surety to increase its loan
production in order to improve the Bank's loan-to-deposit ratio, which will
result in a transfer from the Bank's overnight federal funds sold (with a 5%
yield for the first quarter of 1996) to the higher yielding loan portfolio.
Total interest income increased 34% to $2,950,648 from $2,210,333, while total
interest expense increased 56% to $1,220,636 from $781,131, resulting in a 56%
increase in net interest income before provision for loan losses to $1,730,012
from $1,429,202. Surety's loan growth between these two periods was concentrated
within the real estate lending, commercial loans, consumer loans and the
insurance premium financing. Real estate lending increased by 69% to $27,172,579
from $16,041,646, commercial lending increased by 30% to $20,614,367 from
$15,857,674, consumer lending increased by 37% to $12,958,709 from $9,446,658
and insurance premium financing increased by 3% to $25,044,108 from $24,438,592.
This growth is attributed to the Midlothian Consolidation and management's
marketing efforts. The average volume of consumer, commercial, and real estate
lending increased 17%, with a no change in the average yields on those loans at
12%. The 2% increase in the average volume of insurance premium loans was
accompanied by a yield of 12% on those loans for the three months ended March
31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The average balance of interest bearing
deposits increased 40%, while the average rate paid increased from 3% to 4%.
Surety recorded a $30,000 provision for loan losses during the three months
ended March 31, 1996 compared to $45,000 provision for loan losses during the
three months ended March 31, 1995. As Surety's ratio of net charge-offs to
average loans remained unchanged for these periods, Surety provided amounts,
through charges to earnings, to maintain the allowance for loan losses at an
adequate level. Management believes that all known losses in the portfolio have
been recognized.
Surety's noninterest income increased 8% to $397,269 from $368,292 for the three
months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. This increase compares to a
corresponding increase in average noninterest bearing deposits of 34% to
$16,349,451 from $12,197,290 for these same periods. Noninterest income is
generated primarily from fees associated with noninterest and interest bearing
accounts.
Noninterest expense increased 20%, primarily the result of a 27% increase in
salaries and employee benefits, a 22% increase in occupancy and equipment
expenses, and a 10% increase in general and administrative expenses. The
increase in salaries and benefits was due primarily to additional staffing
required by the Midlothian Consolidation and the Providers Funding Corporation
acquisition. Increases in general and administrative expenses relate primarily
to legal and professional fees.
Parent Company Only Results of Operations.
Surety did not own the Bank prior to December 30, 1989. Since that time, Surety
has served as a parent company to the Bank and has wound down Surety's own
separate business activities. For the three months ended March 31, 1996, Surety
had only nominal income, other than equity in net income of the Bank of
approximately $18,500, and approximately $28,000 in noninterest expenses. The
noninterest expenses, which decreased 54% from the same period in the prior
year, consisted primarily of legal and professional fees incurred in the
operation of Surety and in the maintenance of Surety's public company status
under applicable securities laws and regulations.

<PAGE>
Allowance for Credit Losses
Surety recorded a $30,000 provision for credit losses during the three months
ended March 31, 1996 compared to a $45,000 provision during the three months
ended March 31, 1995. Surety's provision for credit losses is based upon
quarterly loan portfolio reviews by management. The purpose of the reviews is to
assess loan quality, analyze delinquencies, ascertain loan growth, evaluate
potential charge-offs and recoveries, and assess general economic conditions in
the market economy. Credit losses different from the allowance provided by
Surety are likely, and credit losses in excess or deficient of the allowance for
loan losses are possible. Loan losses in excess of the amount of the allowance
could and probably would have a material adverse effect on the financial
condition of Surety.
The ratio of charge-offs, net of recoveries, to average loans during the three
months ended March 31, 1996 was 0.06%. The ratio of the allowance for loan
losses to total loans was 1.5% on March 31, 1996. The allowance for loan losses
was $1,302,492 on March 31, 1996.
Current Trends and Uncertainties
Economic trends and other developments could adversely affect Surety's
operations. Regulatory changes may increase Surety's cost of doing business or
otherwise impact it adversely.
Liquidity
Surety's investment securities portfolio, including federal funds sold, and its
cash and due from bank deposit balances serve as the primary sources of
liquidity. At March 31, 1996, 13% of the Bank's interest bearing liabilities
were in the form of time deposits of $100,000 and over. Although unlikely, if a
large number of these time deposits matured at approximately the same time and
were not renewed, the Bank's liquidity could be adversely affected. Currently,
the maturities of the Bank's large time deposits are spread throughout the year,
and the Bank monitors those maturities in an effort to minimize any adverse
effect on liquidity.
Over the long term, the ability of Surety to meet its cash obligations will
depend substantially on its receipt of dividends from the Bank, which are
limited by banking statutes and regulations.
Capital Resources
Shareholders' equity at March 31, 1996 was $18,198,611 as compared to
$10,294,472 at December 31, 1995. Surety had consolidated net income of $243,910
for the nine months ended March 31, 1996.
Under the regulatory risk-based capital framework, the Bank is expected to meet
a minimum risk-based capital ratio to risk-weighted assets ratio of 8%, of which
at least one-half, or 4%, must be in the form of Tier 1 (core) capital. The
remaining one-half, or 4%, may be either in the form of Tier 1 (core) or Tier 2
(supplementary) capital. The amount of the loan loss allowances that may be
included in capital after the transition period is limited to 1.25% of
risk-weighted assets. The ratio of Tier 1 (core) and the combined amount of Tier
1 (core) and Tier 2 (supplementary) capital to risk-weighted assets for the Bank
was 10.76% and 11.72%, respectively, at December 31, 1995 and 10.58% and 12.08%,
respectively, at March 31, 1996. In addition, the Bank is expected to maintain a
Tier 1 capital to total assets ratio (Tier 1 leverage ratio) of at least 3%. the
Bank is currently, and expects to continue to be, in compliance with these
capital requirements.
While Surety believes it has sufficient financing for its working capital needs
until the end of its 1996 fiscal year, there can be no assurance that Surety's
present capital and financing will be sufficient to finance future operations
thereafter. If Surety sells additional shares of common and/or preferred stock
to raise funds, the terms and conditions of the issuances and any dilutive
effect may have an adverse impact on the existing shareholders. If additional
financing becomes necessary, there can be no assurance that the financing can be
obtained on satisfactory terms. In this event, Surety could be required to
restrict its operations.
The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve") has
announced a policy sometimes known as the "source of strength doctrine" that
requires a bank holding company to serve as a source of financial and managerial
strength to its subsidiary banks. The Federal Reserve has interpreted this
requirement to require that a bank holding company, such as Surety, stand ready
to use available resources to provide adequate capital funds to their subsidiary
banks during periods of financial stress or adversity. The Federal Reserve has
stated that it would generally view a failure to assist a troubled or failing
subsidiary bank in these circumstances as an unsound or unsafe banking practice,
a violation of Regulation Y, or both, justifying a cease and desist order or
other endorsement action, particularly if appropriate resources are available to
the bank holding company on a reasonable basis. The requirement that a bank
holding company, such as Surety, make its assets and resources available to a
failing subsidiary bank could have an adverse effect upon Surety and its
shareholders.
16
<PAGE>
On December 8, 1994, Surety obtained a $1,750,000, 90-day note payable to a
local financial institution to finance the acquisition of First National Bank,
Whitesboro, Texas. After the note matured on June 7, 1995, Surety reduced the
balance of the note to $500,000, and a new note was obtained for the remaining
balance of $500,000. On February 28, 1996,
Surety repaid its debt.
Effects of Inflation
A financial institution's asset and liability structure is substantially
different from that of an industrial company, in that virtually all assets and
liabilities are monetary in nature and, therefore, Surety's operations are not
affected by inflation in a material way. Other factors, such as interest rates
and liquidity, exert greater influence on a bank's performance than does
inflation. The effects of inflation, however, can magnify the growth of assets
in the banking industry. If significant, this would require that equity capital
increase at a faster rate than would otherwise be necessary.
Other
Deposits held by the Bank are insured by the FDIC's Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF").
On August 8, 1995, the FDIC Board of Directors voted to significantly reduce the
deposit insurance premiums paid by most banks but to keep existing assessment
rates intact for savings associations. Under the new rate structure, which went
into effect in October 1995, the best-rated institutions insured by the BIF,
including the Bank, paid $0.04 cents per $100 of domestic deposits. On November
14, 1995, the FDIC announced that commencing in 1996 it would eliminate
insurance deposit premiums for all but the banks in the highest level of
supervisory concern. Based on the risk category applicable to the Bank, the
premium paid by the Bank is presently $0.00 per $100 of domestic deposits.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
The Bank is a defendant in two related cases: Tennessee Ex Rel. Douglas
Sizemore, Commissioner of Commerce and Insurance for the State of Tennessee, et
al. vs. Surety Bank, N.A., filed in June 1995 in the Federal District Court for
the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division (the "Anchorage Case"), and
United Shortline Inc. Assurance Services, N.A. et al. vs. MacGregor General
Insurance Company, Ltd., et al., now pending in the 141st Judicial District
Court of Tarrant County, Texas (the "MacGregor Case").
The claimant in the Anchorage Case is a liquidator (the "Liquidator"), the
Tennessee Commissioner of Commerce and Insurance, appointed by the Chancery
Court for the State of Tennessee, Twentieth Judicial District, Davidson County,
to liquidate Anchorage Fire and Casualty Insurance Company ("Anchorage"). The
Liquidator seeks to recover compensatory and punitive damages on various alleged
causes of action, including violation of orders issued by a Tennessee court,
fraudulent and preferential transfers, common law conversion, fraud, negligence,
and bad faith, all of which are based on the same underlying facts and course of
conduct.
The plaintiff in the MacGregor Case, United Shortline Inc. Assurance Services,
N.A. ("United Shortline"), is the holder of a Florida judgment against MacGregor
General Insurance Company, Ltd. ("MacGregor") and seeks to recover funds
allegedly belonging to MacGregor which were held by the Bank.
Both cases arise out of the Bank's alleged exercise of control over funds held
in accounts at the Bank under agreements with Anchorage and MacGregor. The
exercise of control included the setoff of approximately $570,000, and the
interpleader, in the MacGregor Case, of approximately $600,000. The Bank asserts
that it had a right to exercise control over the funds, in the first instance
under contractual agreements between the Bank and the respective insurance
companies or the Bank and the policy holders, and in the second instance in
order to protect the Bank against the possibility of inconsistent orders
regarding the same funds. The Liquidator also seeks to recover funds allegedly
transferred from Anchorage/MacGregor accounts at the Bank during an approximate
four month period in 1993, which exceed $2.6 million in the aggregate. The Bank
believes that the claims lack merit and intends to defend the cases vigorously.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS'
Board of Directors and Shareholders
First Midlothian Corporation
Midlothian, Texas
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of First Midlothian
Corporation as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related consolidated
statements of income, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 1995. These consolidated financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of First
Midlothian Corporation as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the consolidated
results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 1995, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, First Midlothian Corporation
changed its method of accounting for investment securities and income taxes.

FIRST MIDLOTHIAN CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1995 and 1994
1. Basis of Presentation:
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its subsidiary, First National Bank in Midlothian ("Bank"), which is
100% owned. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been
eliminated in consolidation.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Cash and Cash Equivalents
- - -------------------------
For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on
hand, amounts due from banks, and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds
are sold for one days Periods.
Use of Estimates
- - ----------------
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 assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change
relate to the determination of the allowance for losses on loans and the
valuation of real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in
satisfaction of loans. In connection with the determination of the allowances
for losses on loans and foreclosed real estate, management obtains independent
appraisals for significant properties and an annual independent loan review.
While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans and
foreclosed real estate, future additions to the allowances may be necessary
based on changes in local economic conditions. In addition, regulatory agencies,
as an integral part of their examination process periodically review the Bank's
allowances for losses on loans and foreclosed real estate. Such agencies may
require the Bank to recognize additions to the allowances based on their
judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.
Because of these factors, it is possible that the allowances for losses on loans
and foreclosed real estate may change.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
- - -----------------------------------
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107 (SFAS 107), "Disclosures
- - ---------------------------------------------
About Fair Value of Financial Instruments", requires disclosure of fair value
information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the
statement of financial condition, where it is practical to estimate values and
without incurring excessive costs. In cases where quoted market prices are not
available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other
valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the
assumptions used. including the discount rate and estimates of future cash
<PAGE>
FIRST MIDLOTHIAN CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
flows. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated
by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized
in immediate settlement of the instruments. SFAS 107 excludes certain financial
instruments and all nonfinancial instruments from its disclosure requirements.
Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts do not represent the underlying
value of the Bank.
Management has determined that the disclosures required by SFAS 107 are not
considered practical or cost effective. Accordingly, this information is not
included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements or related notes
to the consolidated financial statements.
Investment Securities
- - ---------------------
Effective January 1, 1994, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
---------------------------------
Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
- - ---------
Securities" (SFAS 115). This statement addresses the accounting and reporting
for investments in equity and debt securities.
Management determines the appropriate classification of securities at time of
purchase. If the securities are purchased with the positive intent and the
ability to hold the securities until maturity, they are classified as
Held-To-Maturity and carried at historical cost, adjusted for amortization of
premiums and accretion of fees and discounts using the effective interest
method. Securities to be held for indefinite periods of time are classified as
Available-For-Sale and carried at fair value. Securities purchased and held
principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as
trading. The Company has no securities classified as trading as of December 31,
1995. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification
method.
During December, 1995, the Company reclassified approximately $6,000,000 of U.S.
Treasury obligations from the Held-to-Maturity classification to
Available-for-Sale. This was accomplished by utilizing an opportunity made
available by the Financial Accounting Standards Board that allowed all financial
institutions a one time chance to reclassify their security portfolio without
jeopardizing their present accounting treatment.
Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses
- - -----------------------------------
Loans are stated at the amount of unpaid principal, reduced by unearned interest
and an allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses is established
through a provision for loan losses charged against current earnings. Loans are
charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that the
collectibility of the principal is unlikely. The allowance for loan losses is an
amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb possible losses on
existing loans that may become uncollectible, based upon evaluation of the
collectibility of loans and prior loan loss experience. The evaluations take
into consideration such factors as changes in the nature and volume of the loan
portfolio, overall portfolio quality, review of specific problem loans, and
current economic conditions that may affect the borrowers' ability to pay.
<PAGE>
FIRST MIDLOTHIAN CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses, continued
- - -----------------------------------
Interest income on installment loans is recognized by a method which
approximates the interest method. Interest income on commercial and real estate
loans is accrued daily on the amount of outstanding principal. Accrual of
interest is discontinued on a loan when management believes, after considering
economic and business conditions and collection efforts, that a borrower's
financial condition is such that collection of interest and principal is
doubtful. Management evaluates the book value (including accrued interest) and
collateral value on loans placed on nonaccrual status and provides specific
allowance for loan losses as deemed appropriate.
Certain fees and costs associated with the origination of loans are recognized
when received. Management has determined that fees collected offset actual
expenses incurred to process the subject loans.
Premises and Equipment
- - ----------------------
Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method at rates sufficient to
amortize the cost over the estimated lives of the assets. Expenditures for
repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred, and renewals and betterments
that extend the lives of assets are capitalized. Cost and accumulated
depreciation are eliminated from the accounts when assets are sold or retired
and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations in the year of
disposition.
Other Real Estate and Repossessed Assets
- - ----------------------------------------
Foreclosed real estate and other assets are recorded at the lower of the unpaid
balance of the related loan or the fair market value of the property, net of
related selling and carrying costs. Any write down to fair market value at the
date of acquisition is charged against the allowance for loan losses. Any
subsequent write downs are reflected in operations.
Income Per Share
- - ----------------
Net income per share of common stock is computed based upon the weighted average
number of shares of common stock outstanding during the years ended December 31.
1995, 1994 and 1993.
Income Taxes
- - ------------
During 1993, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
109 (SFAS 109) whereby the method of accounting for income taxes utilized an
asset and liability approach for financial statement purposes. Under SFAS 109,
the types of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and
their financial reporting amounts that give rise to significant portions

of deferred income tax liabilities or assets include: allowances for possible
loan losses, property and equipment, investment securities and net operating
loss carryforwards. The change in accounting did not have an effect on the
Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations for the years
ended 1994 or 1995. First Midlothian Corporation and its subsidiary file a
consolidated tax return. The Company has a tax sharing arrangement with its
subsidiary.

The Company's subsidiary Bank is party to financial instruments with off-balance
sheet risk, entered into in the normal course of business to meet the financing
needs of its customers. These financial instruments include loan commitments and
letters of credit. The instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of
credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the
financial statements.
The Bank's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by
counterparties to loan commitments and letters of credit is represented by the
contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies
in making commitments and conditional obligations as are used in underwriting
on-balance sheet instruments.

The total amounts of financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk at
December 31, 1995 and 1994 are as follows:
1995 1994
---- ----
Unfunded loan commitments $ 827,991 $ 761,132
Letters of credit 15,450 80,602
Since many of the loan commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the
total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements.
Loans are made in accordance with formal written loan policies. The Bank
evaluates each customer's credit worthiness on a case by case basis. The amount
of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank, upon extension of
credit is based on management's evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held
varies, but may include cash. accounts receivable, inventory, property,
equipment and real estate.
The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as
that involved in extending loan facilities to customers.
The Bank sold $8,170,000 and $2,640,000 in federal funds at December 31, 1995
and 1994, respectively. These funds represent uncollateralized loans made by the
Bank, in varying amounts, to commercial banks with whom the subsidiary Bank has
correspondent relationships. The Bank maintains deposits with other financial
institutions in amounts which exceed FDIC insurance coverage. At December 31,
1995 and 1994, approximately $613,184 and $0 respectively, of such balances were
uninsured.
10. Commitments and Contingencies:
In the ordinary course of business, the Company has various outstanding
commitments and contingent liabilities that are not reflected in the
accompanying financial statements. Management does not anticipate any material
adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company as a result of these
commitments.
The Company is party to various operating leases and contracts. The Company has
a contract with Electronic Data Systems (EDS) to provide data processing
services for the Bank. This contract, which expires February 28, 1997, is based
on usage and items processed. The average cost of this contract over the past
three years is approximately $10,000 - $12,000 per month. This agreement can be
canceled with a six month notice but requires the Bank to pay for the remaining
term of the contract at 80% of the normal usage.
In addition, the Company has a maintenance agreement for the drive-in turbo
lanes and leases offsite storage facilities. The maintenance agreement is for a
term of seven years and expires in March, 1996. The storage lease is for a term
of two years and expires in March, 1997. These agreements cost $1,800 per year
and $550 per month, respectively.

The following is a schedule of future estimated minimum payments required under
these operating leases:
1996 $ 112,650
1997 19,250
---------
Total minimum payment $ 131,900
=========
In the normal course of business, the Bank may become involved in routine claims
and lawsuits. While the results of litigation cannot be predicted with
certainty, management, in consultation with legal counsel, believes that the
final outcome of any of these matters, or of any unasserted claims, will not
have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition
or results of operations.
11. Shareholders' Equity:
In 1982, the Company acquired all of the common stock of the subsidiary Bank.
Shareholders of the Bank stock were issued the same number of shares of common
stock of the Company as they had held in the Bank. The Company does not have any
warrants or options issued or outstanding.
The Company is not subject to any regulatory restrictions on the amount of
dividends that it may declare, however, dividends must be paid out of retained
earnings. On June 30, 1995, the Company declared and paid a $2.50 per share
dividend for the shareholders of record as of that date.
12. Restrictions on Retained Earnings:
The primary source of funds for cash distributions by the Company to its
shareholders is dividends received from its subsidiary Bank. The amount of
dividends that the subsidiary Bank may declare in a calendar year without
approval by the OCC is the Bank's net profits for that year combined with its
net retained profits, as defined, for the two preceding years. At December 31,
1995, approximately $ 616,200 of the Bank's retained earnings were available for
dividend distribution to the Company without prior regulatory approval.
13. Regulatory Matters:
The Company's Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements
administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital
requirements car. initiate certain mandatory - and possibly additional
discretionary - actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct
material effect on the Bank's financial statements. The regulations require the
Bank to meet specific capital adequacy guidelines that involve quantitative
measures of the Bank's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items
as calculated under the regulatory accounting practices. The Bank's capital
classification is also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about
components, risk weightings, and other factors. The Bank must maintain a minimum
of qualifying total capital and core
