                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

BASIS OF PRESENTATION In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited
                      interim consolidated financial statements reflect all
                      adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments,
                      which are necessary to present a fair statement of the
                      results for the interim period presented of Century
                      Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly owned
                      subsidiary, Century Bank and Trust Company (the "Bank").
                      The results of operations for the interim period ended
                      September 30, 1999, are not necessarily indicative of
                      results for the entire year. It is suggested that these
                      statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated
                      financial statements and the notes thereto included in the
                      Company's Annual Report on Form 10K for year ended
                      December 31, 1998.

                      The financial statements have been prepared in conformity
                      with generally accepted accounting principles and to
                      general practices within the banking industry. In
                      preparing the financial statements, management is required
                      to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
                      amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the
                      balance sheet and revenues and expenses for the period.
                      Actual results could differ from those estimates.

                      Material estimates that are susceptible to change in the
                      near-term relate to the allowance for losses on loans.
                      Management believes that the allowance for losses on loans
                      is adequate based on independent appraisals and review of
                      other factors associated with the assets. While management
                      uses available information to recognize losses on loans,
                      future additions to the allowance for loans may be
                      necessary based on changes in economic conditions. In
                      addition, regulatory agencies periodically review the
                      Company's allowance for losses on loans. Such agencies may
                      require the Company to recognize additions to the
                      allowance for loans based on their judgements about
                      information available to them at the time of their
                      examination.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

                      The consolidated financial statements include the accounts
                      of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, the Bank.
                      The Company provides a full range of banking services to
                      consumer, business and municipal customers in
                      Massachusetts. As a bank holding company, the Company is
                      subject to the regulation and supervision of the Federal
                      Reserve Board. The Bank, a state chartered financial
                      institution, is subject to supervision and regulation by
                      applicable state and federal banking agencies, including
                      the Federal Reserve Board, the Federal Deposit Insurance
                      Corporation (the "FDIC"), and the Massachusetts Division
                      of Banks.

                      The Bank is also subject to various requirements and
                      restrictions under federal and state law, including
                      requirements to maintain reserves against deposits,
                      restrictions on the types and amounts of loans that may be
                      granted and the interest that may be charged thereon, and
                      limitations on the types of investments that may be made
                      and the types of services that

                      may be offered. Various consumer laws and regulations also
                      affect the operations of the Bank. In addition to the
                      impact of regulation, commercial banks are affected
                      significantly by the actions of the Federal Reserve Board
                      as it attempts to control the money supply and credit
                      availability in order to influence the economy. All
                      aspects of the Company's business are highly competitive.
                      The Company faces aggressive competition from other
                      lending institutions and from numerous other providers of
                      financial services.

ITEM 2                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                      CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

OVERVIEW              For the quarter ended and year-to-date ended September 30,
                      1999.

                      Earnings for the third quarter ended September 30, 1999
                      were $2.4 million, an increase of 17.2% when compared with
                      the third quarter 1998 earnings of $2.1 million. Diluted
                      earnings per share for the third quarter 1999 were $0.42
                      versus $0.36 for the second quarter of 1998. The increase
                      was attributable to balance sheet growth.

                      For the nine months ending September 30, 1999, earnings
                      were $6.9 million an increase of 16.9% when compared with
                      the same period last year earnings of $5.9 million.
                      Diluted earnings per share for the first nine months were
                      $1.18 versus $1.00 for the first nine months of 1998. The
                      increase was attributable to balance sheet growth and the
                      acquisition of Haymarket Cooperative Bank ("Haymarket").
                      The acquisition took place on June 11, 1998.

YEAR 2000             The Company has completed its assessment of Year 2000
                      issues and developed a plan, budget, and testing strategy
                      for mission-critical systems. The Company relies on its
                      recently converted new core processing system for critical
                      data warehousing and transaction processing. Other, less
                      critical, systems are supported by purchased applications
                      software. The Company is continually evaluating mission-
                      critical vendor plans and monitoring project milestones.
                      The Company has tested its key transaction processing
                      system and has substantially completed testing its core
                      processing system and most other applications. The vendor
                      has disclosed that its core processing system is Year 2000
                      compliant. There can be no guarantee that the systems of
                      other companies, or third party vendors on which the
                      Company's systems rely, will be remedied on a timely
                      basis. Therefore, the Company could be negatively impacted
                      to the extent other entities not affiliated with the
                      Company are unsuccessful in properly addressing their
                      respective Year 2000 compliance responsibilities. Specific
                      factors that might cause such material differences
                      include, but are not limited to, the availability and cost
                      of personnel trained in this area and the ability to
                      locate and correct all relevant computer codes.

                      The Company will continue to utilize both internal and
                      external resources to update, or replace, develop and test
                      all software information systems for Year 2000
                      modification. The Company's cost of Year 2000 remediation,
                      which includes its cost of converting to its new core
                      processing system, is expected to approach $2.0 million,
                      of which approximately $1.9 million has been incurred. The
                      Company's cost does not include internal costs. The
                      Company expects that the majority of the costs yet to be
                      incurred will be to replace or update existing hardware
                      and software on non-mission critical items, which will be
                      capitalized and amortized in accordance with the Company's
                      existing accounting policy. In most instances, upgrades to
                      computer hardware and software are being made to improve
                      the capacity and performance of the systems as well as to
                      achieve Year 2000 compliance. Maintenance and modification
                      costs will be expensed as incurred.

                      The costs of the project and the date on which the Company
                      plans to complete Year 2000 testing are based on
                      management's best estimates, which were derived utilizing
                      numerous assumptions of future events including the
                      continued availability of certain resources, third party
                      modification plans and other factors.

                      The Bank has also assessed the impact of the Year 2000
                      issue on its major borrowing customers. Borrowers that
                      could experience a significant disruption in their
                      business due to a Year 2000 failure have been identified.
                      Management has received responses from this identified
                      group, with a small number requiring further follow-up.
                      Management has substantially completed this assessment.
                      Large deposit customers associated with lockbox services
                      have been identified and assessed. These customers will
                      continue to be monitored for Year 2000 compliance.

                      A contingency plan has been substantially completed for
                      high risk assessed systems. This plan covers preparing
                      business resumption and liquidity needs in the event of
                      possible Year 2000 disruptions. The Bank's contingency
                      plan was put in place at the end of the second quarter of
                      1999.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

LOANS                 On September 30, 1999 total loans outstanding, net of
                      unearned discount, were $408.1 million, an increase of
                      3.1% from the total on December 31, 1998. At September 30,
                      1999 commercial real estate loans accounted for 47.1% and
                      residential real estate loans accounted for 24.9% of total
                      loans. Construction loans increased to $27.5 million at
                      September 30, 1999 from $21.7 million on December 31,
                      1998.

                      The increase in loans was mainly attributable to corporate
                      loans which are comprised of commercial, construction and
                      commercial real estate lending. Originations of corporate
                      loans reflect the Company's increased interest for this
                      type of loan as well as higher real estate values. The
                      increase in corporate loans was partially offset by a
                      decrease in consumer loans. Consumer loans are comprised
                      mainly of personal installment and personal credit line
                      loans.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

                      The allowance for loan losses was 1.63% of total loans on
                      September 30, 1999 compared with 1.52% on December 31,
                      1998. Net charge-offs for the nine month period ended
                      September 30, 1999, were $43 thousand, compared with net
                      recoveries of $29 thousand for the same period in 1998.

                      Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is
                      adequate. Management uses available information to provide
                      for losses but recognizes that changes in economic
                      conditions may result in additional losses and additional
                      loss provisions. Also, the allowance is reviewed in
                      conjunction with regulatory examinations. These reviews
                      may require the Company to make additional provisions to
                      the allowance based on judgements made by the regulators.

                         Nonaccruing loans as a

                      Subsequent to September 30, 1999 there was deterioration
                      with one borrower's credit quality, whose total
                      relationship amounted to $4.1 million. As a result of this
                      deterioration, management has placed this credit to
                      nonaccrual loans during the 4th quarter. As of the date of
                      this filing, the loss exposure on this credit and its
                      potential impact on the provision for loan losses cannot
                      be reasonably estimated.

INVESTMENTS           Management continually evaluates its investment
                      alternatives in order to properly manage the overall
                      balance sheet mix. The timing of purchases, sales and
                      reinvestment, if any, will be based on various factors
                      including expectation of movements in market interest
                      rates, deposit flows and loan demand. Notwithstanding
                      these events, it is the intent of management to grow the
                      earning asset base through loan originations, loan
                      purchases or investment acquisitions while funding this
                      growth through a mix of retail deposits, FHLB advances,
                      and retail repurchase agreements.

SECURITIES AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE

                      The securities available-for-sale portfolio totaled $239.3
                      million at September 30, 1999, an increase of 13.9% from
                      December 31, 1998. The portfolio is concentrated in United
                      States Treasury and Agency securities and has an estimated
                      weighted average maturity of 5.5 years.

SECURITIES HELD-TO-MATURITY

                      The securities held-to-maturity portfolio totaled $154.6
                      million on September 30, 1999, a decrease of 3.3% from the
                      total on December 31, 1998. The portfolio is concentrated
                      in United States Treasury and Agency securities, including
                      Mortgage Backed Securities and has an estimated weighted
                      average maturity of 7.7 years.

DEPOSITS AND BORROWED FUNDS

                      On September 30, 1999 deposits totaled $582.2 million,
                      representing a 9.5% decrease in total deposits from
                      December 31, 1998. Total deposits declined by $29.2
                      million or 4.8% from September 30, 1998. Total deposits
                      decreased primarily as a result of the cyclical municipal
                      deposit trends and a reduction in high rate certificates
                      of deposits acquired from Haymarket. Borrowed funds
                      totaled $180.2 million compared to $92.5 million at
                      December 31, 1998. In order to maintain total assets and
                      offset the decline in cyclical demand and time deposits,
                      the Bank increased borrowings from the Federal Home Loan
                      Bank.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NET INTEREST INCOME

                      For the three month period ended September 30, 1999 net
                      interest income totaled $8.2 million, an increase of 4.4%
                      from the comparable period in 1998. For the nine month
                      period ended September 30, 1999 net interest income
                      totaled $24.2 million, an increase of 11.4% from the
                      comparable period in 1998. Interest income was primarily
                      affected positively by the acquisition of Haymarket. The
                      net yield on average earning assets on a fully taxable
                      equivalent basis decreased to 4.09% in the first nine
                      months of 1999 from 4.60% during the same period in 1998.
                      The decrease was mainly attributable to leveraged balance
                      sheet transactions.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

                      For the three month period ended September 30, 1999 the
                      loan loss provision totaled $225 thousand compared to $225
                      thousand for the same period last year. For the nine month
                      period ended September 30, 1999 the loan loss provision
                      totaled $675 thousand compared to $575 thousand for the
                      same period in 1998.

                      Loan loss provision increased due to growth in the loan
                      portfolio. The Company's loan loss allowance as a
                      percentage of total loans outstanding has increased from
                      1.52% at September 30, 1998 to 1.63% at September 30,
                      1999.

NON-INTEREST INCOME AND EXPENSE

                      Other operating income for the quarter ended September 30,
                      1999 was $1.4 million compared to $1.3 million for the
                      third quarter of 1998. Broker commissions increased $100
                      thousand or 38.8% due to an increase in broker related
                      transactions during the period. For the nine month period
                      ending September 30, 1999 other operating income totaled
                      $4.2 million compared to $3.9 million for the same period
                      in 1998. This was mainly attributable to increased broker
                      commissions which increased $266 thousand or 31%.

                      During the third quarter 1999, operating expenses
                      increased by $141 thousand to $5.6 million or 2.6% from
                      the same quarter last year. Most of the increase was in
                      salaries and employee benefits. For the nine month period
                      ended September 30, 1999 operating expenses totaled $17.0
                      million compared to $16.0 million for the same period in
                      1998. Salaries and other employee benefits as well as
                      other operating expenses made up the majority of the
                      increase. The majority of the increase in salaries was
                      caused by an increase in the wage base and personnel costs
                      associated with the acquisition of Haymarket. Other
