                    NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                         September 30, 2000

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
Article 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, 2000, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may
be expected for the year ending December 31, 2000.  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, 1999.

Note 2.  RESTATEMENT OF PRIOR PERIOD

     During 1999, the Bank's regulators advised that the Company
incorrectly applied the full accrual method of accounting for the sale of
Other Real Estate in 1998.  Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated
financial statements have been restated from those originally reported to
reflect the change to the cost recovery method.  The Company amended Form
10-K for December 31, 1998 on February 25, 2000, Form 10-Q for March 31,
1999 was amended on April 25, 2000, Form 10-Q for June 30, 1999 was amended
on May 3, 2000 and Form 10-q for September 30, 1999 was amended on May 4,
2000.

Note 3.  PER SHARE DATA

     Income per common share data are based on the weighted average number
of shares outstanding of 179,145 at September 30, 2000 and 1999
respectively.

Note 4.  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 September 30, 1999, 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:
     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.
During 1997, a judgment was rendered against the Bank, and accordingly, a
provision for loss of $150,000 has been charged to operation.  The Bank has
countersued and is presently appealing the judgment. The appeal has been
pending since June, 1998.  In March 2000, a decision was rendered in favor
of the Bank and accordingly, the $150,000 was reversed and is reflected in
operations.  Outside counsel has filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court
requesting that the $243,000 deposit for bond together with interest is
ordered returned to the Bank.
     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 in this matter.

Note 5. 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:

     Securities Held to Maturity.  Average securities held to maturity
decreased $543,000 (15.46%) from the third quarter of 1999.  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
increased $47,000 (16.15%) from the third quarter of 1999.  Securities
available for sale are carried at fair value.

     Short Term Investments.  Average federal funds sold decreased
$3,721,000 (11.34%) down from the third quarter of 1999.  This decrease is
mainly due to the increase in the loan portfolio.

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 $1,127,000 at September 30, 2000 as
compared to $1,372,000 at September 30, 1999.  Other real estate totaled
$1,074,000 at September 30, 2000 as compared to $1,337,000 at September 30,
1999.

IMPAIRED LOANS

     As of September 30, 2000, the recorded investment in loans that are
considered impaired under SFAS 114 and 118 was $0.  The related allowance
for credit losses for the impaired loans is not specifically identified,
but is included in the percentages allocated to the portfolio.

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 increased 53.78% to $3,254,000 at September 30, 2000 from
$2,116,000 at September 30, 1999.

     Management is not aware of any potential problem loans other than
those disclosed above, which includes all loans recommended for
classification by regulators, which would have a material impact on asset
quality.

ALLOWANCE AND PROVISION FOR POSSIBLE LOAN LOSSES

     Table 3 presents an analysis of the activity in the allowance for loan
losses for the three month and nine month period ending September 30, 2000
and 1999.  The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans decreased
from 3.13% at September 30, 1999 to 3.04% at September 30, 2000.  The net
charge-off (recoveries) as a percentage of average loans decreased from
1.18% at September 30, 1999 to .22% at September 30, 2000.
     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 40.79 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 $1,000,000 with a correspondent bank. The Bank can
borrow the amount of unpledged securities at the discount window at the
Federal Reserve Bank by pledging those 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 2000 decreased $70,000
over the same period last year, and decreased $73,000 from the first nine
months of 1999.  The net interest margin increased to 2.20% for the third
quarter of 2000 from 2.16% for the third quarter of 1999.
     The Company's average balances, interest income and expense and rates
earned or paid for major categories are set forth in the following tables:

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
38.76% at September 30, 2000, 44.38% at June 30, 2000, and 41.68% at
September 30, 1999.
     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.
