NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 1997
Note 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of
normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation
have been included. Operating results for the nine-month period ended
September 30, 1997, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may
be expected for the year ending December 31, 1997. For further
information, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements and
notes included in the Registrant's annual report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 1996.
Note 2 PER SHARE DATA
Income per common share data are based on the weighted average number
of shares outstanding of 179,145 and 179,145 at September 30, 1997 and 1996
respectively.
Note 3. CONTINGENCIES
Because of the nature of the banking industry in general, the Company
and the Bank are each parties from time to time to litigation and other
proceedings in the ordinary course of business, none of which (other than
those described below), either individually or in the aggregate, have a
material effect on the Company's and/or the Bank's financial condition.
Other than the lawsuits described below, the Company has either (i)
posted reserves adequate to pay any judgments that may be rendered against
the Company and such posting is reflected in the Company's consolidated
financial statements for the period ending December 31, 1996, or (ii)
believes the lawsuit is without sufficient merit or monetary exposure to
require the posting of a reserve. The Company has not provided a judicial
interest that may be awarded on a judgment pending the conclusion of the
appeals procedure. Indeed, should the Company be successful in any of
those lawsuits in which it has posted reserves, recoveries would be
realized and the Company's consolidated net income would be positively
impacted.
The following actions, however, have been brought against the Company
and, if the claimants were wholly successful on the merits, could result in
significant exposure to the Bank:
1. The Company is a defendant in a lawsuit filed by a proprietary
merchant alleging that the Company mishandled the Plaintiff's proprietary
credit card portfolio. The Plaintiff seeks to recover in excess of
$1,800,000. The Bankruptcy Court has established an escrow account, in
which $270,404 was on deposit as of October 31, 1996, for the protection of
the Company. This amount would significantly reduce any losses incurred by
the Company in the event the Plaintiff is wholly successful on the merits.
The court has ruled in favor of the Plaintiff. The Company plans to
appeal.
Expected Results: Outside counsel advises the Company will be able to
fully recover all of its losses in this matter through the appeals process.
2. The Company is a defendant in a lawsuit filed by another bank
alleging the Company improperly dishonored checks totaling $979,000. The
Company claims that such checks were properly returned nonsufficient funds.
When these checks were returned to the Plaintiff, of the $979,000, one
check for $110,000 was misplaced by the FRB and therefore returned late to
the Plaintiff. The Company was forced to cover the amount of the check.
The Company filed a countersuit against the Plaintiffs for contribution on
the $110,000 loss and for tortious interference. The Plaintiff filed
exceptions to the countersuit. These exceptions were heard in the district
court and the Company's right to contribution was maintained, however the
Company's suit for tortious interference was dismissed. On appeal, the
appellate court sustained the Company's right to contribution and overruled
the lower court's decision on tortious interference, finding that the
Company could maintain such a cause of action. The Louisiana Supreme Court
denied writs filed by the Plaintiff. The case is currently awaiting trial.
The Company is vigorously defending all claims asserted in this suit.
<PAGE>
Expected Results: Outside counsel advises that the Company will not
pay any damages in this matter and the likelihood is reasonably high that
the Company will obtain some recovery from the Plaintiff.
3. On February 10, 1997 a lawsuit was filed by a proprietary merchant
alleging that the Company wrongfully debited the Plaintiff's Reserve
account which is held for losses. The Plaintiff is seeking $2,000,000 in
damages. On February 10, 1997, the same day, the Bank filed suit, based on
the fact that the proprietor was withholding payments which belonged to the
Bank. The Company intends to continue to defend vigorously the claims
asserted in the suit.
Expected Results: Outside counsel advises that the Plaintiff will not
prevail at all against the Company and that the Company will be able to
fully recover all of its losses, including attorney fees in this matter.
Note 4. DISCLOSURE ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair
value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to
estimate the value:
CASH AND SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS
For cash, the carrying amount approximates fair value. For short-term
investments, fair values are calculated based upon general investment
market interest rates for similar maturity investments.
INVESTMENT SECURITIES
For securities and marketable equity securities held-for-investment
purposes, fair values are based on quoted market prices.
LOAN RECEIVABLES
For certain homogeneous categories of loans, such as residential
mortgages, credit card receivables and other consumer loans, fair value is
estimated using the current U.S. Treasury interest rate curve, a factor for
cost of processing and a factor for historical credit risk to determine the
discount rate.
DEPOSIT LIABILITIES
The fair value of demand deposits, savings deposits and certain money
market deposits are calculated based upon general investment market
interest rates for investments with similar maturities. The value of fixed
maturity certificates deposit is estimated using the U.S. Treasury interest
rate curve currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
COMMITMENTS TO EXTEND CREDIT
The fair value of commitments is estimated using the fees currently
charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining
terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the
counterparties.
The estimated fair values of the Bank's financial instruments are as follows:

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
September 30, 1997
Management's Discussion presents a review of the major factors and
trends affecting the performance of BOL BANCSHARES, INC. (the "Company")
and its bank subsidiary (the Bank) and should be read in conjunction with
the accompanying consolidated financial statements, notes and tables.
FINANCIAL CONDITION:
EARNING ASSETS
Interest earning assets averaged $89,850,000 in the third quarter of
1997, a $3,808,000 decrease from the third quarter of 1996 average of
$93,658,000. Compared to the third quarter of 1996, average loans
decreased $13,208,000 (17.76%) while average investment securities
increased $1,104,000 (11.68%), and average federal funds sold increased
$8,296,000 (84.25%).
Table 1 presents the Company's loan portfolio by major
classifications. Total loans decreased $12,122,000 (16.77%)over the third
quarter of 1996. This decrease is mainly attributable to the decline in
the credit card portfolio. Visa / MasterCard loans decreased $4,035,000
(15.96%) and Proprietary loans decreased $10,249,000 (73.96%) due to the
loss of several proprietary accounts.

Securities Held to Maturity. Average securities held to maturity
increased $1,126,000 (13.49%) from the third quarter of 1996. Securities
held to maturity are carried as cost, adjusted for amortization of premium
and accretion of discounts using methods approximating the interest method.
Securities Available for Sale. Average securities available for sale
decreased $21,000 (1.93%) from the third quarter of 1996. Securities
available for sale are carried at fair value.
Short Term Investments. Average federal funds sold increased
$8,296,000 (84.25%) up from the third quarter of 1996. This increase is
mainly due to the decrease in the aforementioned credit card portfolio.
<PAGE>
ASSET QUALITY
Table 2 presents a summary of nonperforming assets for the past five
quarters.
Nonperforming assets consist of nonaccrual and restructured loans and
ORE. Nonaccrual loans are loans on which the interest accruals have been
discontinued when it appears that future collection of principal or
interest according to the contractual terms may be doubtful. Interest on
these loans is reported on the cash basis as received when the full
recovery of principal is anticipated or after full principal has been
recovered when collection of interest is in question. The loan process
ensures that all loans which meet the criteria for nonaccrual status are
placed on nonaccrual. Restructured loans are those loans whose terms have
been modified, because of economic or legal reasons related to the debtors'
financial difficulties, to provide for a reduction in principal, change in
terms, or fixing of interest rates at below market levels. ORE is real
property acquired by foreclosure or directly by title or deed transfer in
settlement of debt.
Nonperforming assets, totaled $1,567,000 at Sept. 30, 1997 as compared
to $2,015,000 at Sept. 30, 1996. Other real estate totaled $1,357,000 at
Sept. 30, 1997 as compared to $1,699,000 at Sept. 30, 1996.

those disclosed in the table above, which includes all loans recommended
for classification by regulators, which would have a material impact on
asset quality.
IMPAIRED LOANS
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 114,
"Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan" in May, 1993. In
October, 1994, the FASB issued SFAS No. 118, "Accounting by Creditors for
Impairment of a Loan-Income Recognition and Disclosures" which amends SFAS
No. 114. These standards require the measurement of certain impaired loans
based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the
loan's effective interest rates. Adoption of SFAS Nos. 114 and 118 is
required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1994. The Bank
adopted these statements beginning January 1, 1995; the adoption had no
material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
A loan is considered potentially impaired if: a) it is probable that
the Bank will be unable to collect all amounts due (principal and interest)
according to the terms of the loan agreement; b) A loan's original
contractual terms have been modified because of the collect concerns.
Impairment assessment is based on the present value of expected future
cash flows related to the particular loan. The Bank discounts expected net
future cash flows or the underlying collateral of a loan to determine the
appropriate loss allowance for the loan.
For impaired loans that have risk characteristics in common with other
impaired loans, the Bank aggregates those loans and uses historical
statistics, such as average recovery period and average amount recovered,
along with a composite effective interest rate as a means of measuring the
impaired loans.
If the measure of the impaired loan is less than the recorded
investment in the loan, including accrued interest, net deferred loan fees
or costs, and unamortized premium or discount, the Bank recognized the
impairment.
<PAGE>
The term recorded investment in the loan is distinguished from net
carrying amount of the loan because the latter term is net of a valuation
allowance, while the former term is not. The recorded investment in the
loan does, however, reflect any direct write-down of the investment.
When the bank recognizes the impairment, we create a valuation
allowance with a corresponding charge to bad-debt expense or adjust an
existing valuation allowance for the impaired loan with a corresponding
charge or credit to bad debt expense.
As of September 30, 1997, the Bank did not have any impaired loans.
WATCH LIST
The Bank's watch list includes loans which, for management purposes,
have been identified as requiring a higher level of monitoring due to risk.
The Bank's watch list includes both performing and nonperforming loans.
The majority of watch list loans are classified as performing, because they
do not have characteristics resulting in uncertainty about the borrower's
ability to repay principal and interest in accordance with the original
terms of the loans.
The watch list consists of classifications, identified as Type 1
through Type 4. Types 1, 2 and 3 generally parallel the regulatory
classifications of loss, doubtful and substandard, respectively. Type 4
generally parallels the regulatory classification of Other Assets
Especially Mentioned (OAEM). These loans require monitoring due to
conditions which, if not corrected, could increase credit risk. Total
watch list loans decreased 1.72% to $4,188,000 at Sept. 30, 1997 from
$4,262,000 at Sept. 30, 1996.
RESERVE AND PROVISION FOR POSSIBLE LOAN LOSSES
Table 3 presents an analysis of the activity in the reserve for
possible loan losses for the three month and nine month period ending Sept
30, 1997 and 1996. The reserve for loan losses as a percentage of loans
increased from 2.08% at Sept. 30, 1996 to 2.99% at
Sept. 30, 1997. The net charge-off (recoveries) as a percentage of average
loans increased from 1.92% at Sept. 30, 1996 to 4.29% at Sept. 30, 1997.
Total loans charged off at Sept. 30, 1997 of $3,320,000 increased
$1,268,000 from Sept. 30, 1996 of $2,052,000 due to an FDIC requirement to
charge off an additional $300,000 to operations to bring the allowance for
loan losses up to $1,800,000, the change in methodology of credit card
charge-offs from 240 days delinquent to 180 days delinquent, and the loss
of several proprietary reserve accounts which was used to offset the
proprietary charge-offs.
The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for
loan losses charged to expenses. Management's policy is to maintain the
allowance for possible loan losses at a level sufficient to absorb losses
inherent in the loan portfolio. The allowance is increased by the
provision for loan losses and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries.
Management's evaluation process to determine potential losses includes
consideration of the industry, specific conditions of individual borrowers,
historical loan loss experience and the general economic environment. As
these factors change, the level of loan loss provision changes. Loans are
charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that
the collectibility of the principal is unlikely. Accrual of interest is
discontinued and accrued interest is charged off on a loan when management
believes, after considering economic and business conditions and collection
efforts, that the borrower's financial condition is such that collection of
interest is doubtful. Ultimate losses may vary from the current estimates.
These estimates are reviewed periodically and, as adjustments become
necessary, they are reflected in current operations.

BORROWINGS
The Company's long-term debt is comprised primarily of debentures
which are secured by 23.83 shares of the Subsidiary Bank's stock. The Bank
has no long-term debt. It is the Bank's policy to manage its liquidity so
that there is no need to make unplanned sales of assets or to borrow funds
under emergency conditions. The Bank maintains a Federal Funds line of
credit in the amount of $600,000 with a correspondent bank and also has a
<PAGE>
commitment from an upstream correspondent which will increase our Federal
Funds line of credit over and above the normal amount by pledging unused
securities.
INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY
The Bank has established, as bank policy, an asset/liability
management system that protects Bank profits from undue exposure to
interest rate risks. The major elements used to manage interest rate risk
include the mix of fixed and variable rate assets and liabilities and the
maturity pattern of assets and liabilities. It is the Company's policy not
to invest in derivatives in the ordinary course of business. The Company
performs a monthly review of assets and liabilities that reprice and the
time bands within which the repricing occurs. Balances are reported in the
time band that corresponds to the instrument's next repricing date or
contractual maturity, whichever occurs first. Through such analysis, the
Company monitors and manages its interest sensitivity gap to minimize the
effects of changing interest rates.
GAP & INTEREST MARGIN SPREAD
By Bank policy we limit the Bank's earnings exposure due to interest
rate risk by setting limits on positive and negative gaps within the next
12 months. These limits are set so that this year's profits will not be
unduly impacted no matter what happens to interest rates during the year.
In addition, we extend the scenarios out five years to monitor the risks
associated on a longer term.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income, the difference between interest income and
interest expense, is a significant component of the performance of a
banking organization. Data used in the analysis of net interest income are
derived from the daily average levels of earnings assets and interest
bearing deposits as well as from the related income and expense. Net
interest income is not developed on a taxable equivalent basis because the
level of tax exempt income is not material. The primary factors that
affect net interest income are the changes in volume and mix of earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities, along with the change in market
rates.
Net interest income for the third quarter of 1997 decreased $1,384,000
over the same period last year, and decreased $570,000 from the first nine
months of 1996. The net interest income margin decreased to 2.22% for the
third quarter of 1997 from 2.77% for the third quarter of 1996. The net
interest income margin decreased to 6.96% for the nine months of 1997 from
8.22% for the same period last year. The decline of the net interest income
is attributable to the decline in the credit card portfolio.

NONINTEREST INCOME AND EXPENSE
The amount of noninterest income and noninterest expenses of a banking
organization relate closely to the size of the total assets and deposits
and the number of deposit accounts. The amount of noninterest expense
represents the cost of operating the banking organization.
The major components of noninterest income are service charges related
to deposit accounts, cardholder and other credit card fees, Ore income,
gain on sale of ORE and other noninterest income.
Noninterest income for the third quarter of 1997 increased $157,000 or
8.68% from the same period last year. Table 5 presents noninterest income
for the three months and nine months ended Sept. 30, 1997 and 1996.

LIQUIDITY
The purpose of liquidity management is to ensure that there is
sufficient cash flow to satisfy demands for credit, deposit withdrawals,
and other corporate needs. Traditional sources of liquidity include asset
maturities and growth in core deposits. The Company has maintained
adequate liquidity through cash flow from operating activities and
financing activities to fund loan growth, and anticipates that this will
continue even if the Company expands.
Liquidity and capital resources are discussed weekly by the management
committee, the assets and liability committee and at the monthly executive
committee meeting. Bank of Louisiana maintains adequate capital to meet
its needs in the foreseeable future. The liquidity ratio for the Bank was
39.95% at Sept. 30, 1997, 38.09% at June 30, 1997, and 30.07% at Sept. 30,
1996.
Measuring liquidity and capital on a weekly basis enables management
to constantly monitor loan growth, and shifting customer preferences. The
committee's in-depth reviews of current, projected, and worse case
scenarios through various reports ensures the availability of funds and
capital adequacy.
The Bank intends on increasing capital by implementing an extensive
marketing program and evaluating all pricing fees and investing in
proprietary accounts which will maximize the highest yield possible and
thereby improve earnings.
There are no known trends, events, regulatory authority recommendations,
or uncertainties that the Company is aware of that will have or that are
likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company's liquidity, capital
resources, or operations.
