             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
                              CAPITOL BANCORP LTD.


Note A - Basis of Presentation

         The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of
Capitol Bancorp Ltd. have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information and with the
instructions for Form 10-Q.  Accordingly, they do not include all information
and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of consolidated financial
position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

         The statements do, however, include all adjustments of a normal
recurring nature (in accordance with Rule 10-01(b)(8) of Regulation S- X) which
the Corporation considers necessary for a fair presentation of the interim
periods.

         The results of operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 1997
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year
ending December 31, 1997.

         The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1996 was derived
from audited consolidated financial statements as of that date.  Certain 1996
amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 1997 presentation.


Note B - Implementation of New Accounting Standards

         Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 125, "Accounting
for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of
Liabilities", establishes new guidelines for accounting for certain
transactions, such as sales of loans and loan participations.  This new
standard became effective for the Corporation January 1, 1997.  Implementation
of this new accounting standard had no impact on the Corporation's financial
position or results of operations for the period ended June 30, 1997.


Note C - New Operating Units

         In a stock-for-stock exchange transaction effective May 22, 1997, Bank
of Tucson (previously a 51% owned consolidated bank subsidiary) became a
wholly-owned subsidiary of a newly formed bank holding company, Sun Community
Bancorp Limited ("Sun").  As a result of the exchange transaction, Sun became a
51% owned, second-tier subsidiary bank holding company of the Corporation.  Sun
was formed for the purpose of facilitating future expansion opportunities in
the southwestern portion of the United States and related data processing,
operations support and other ancillary services and functions for Bank of
Tucson and future banks.

         In June 1997, Sun completed a $4.5 million offering of 250,000 shares
of common stock including $2.3 million invested by the Corporation, maintaining
its 51% interest in Sun.





                                 Page 6 of 19 
<PAGE>   7

Proceeds from the offering are expected to be used in Sun's expansion
activities, primarily de novo bank development.

         On June 30, 1997 Valley First Community Bank, a de novo bank,
commenced operations in Scottsdale, Arizona.  The Bank was capitalized with
$4.5 million, of which $2.3 million was invested by Sun with the remainder
invested by individuals and other entities primarily located in the Scottsdale
and Phoenix area.  Valley First Community Bank is 51% owned by Sun and,
accordingly, is consolidated with Sun for financial reporting purposes.

         Because of the Corporation's majority interest in Sun, Sun's
consolidated financial position and results of operations are included in the
Corporation's consolidated financial statements with corresponding accounting
recognition of applicable minority interest.

         Brighton Commerce Bank, a de novo bank located in Brighton, Michigan,
was formed in early January 1997.  The Corporation's investment in this new
bank ($1.6 million) was funded primarily from proceeds from exercise of stock
options and borrowings.  The Corporation owns 59% of the common stock of
Brighton Commerce Bank and the Bank is consolidated for financial reporting
purposes with corresponding accounting recognition given to applicable minority
interest.



Note D - Prospective Impact of New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

         The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") has issued certain
new standards which affect accounting and financial reporting.

         FASB Statement No. 128, "Earnings per Share", will revise the
computation and reporting of earnings per share.  This new standard is intended
to simplify the basis upon which per-share amounts are determined, replacing
"primary" earnings per share with "basic" earnings per share.  "Fully diluted"
earnings per share will be replaced by "diluted" earnings per share. The
Statement will become effective for the Corporation's year end 1997
consolidated financial statements and will result in restatement of per-share
amounts for prior periods.  Early adoption of the new standard is not
permitted.  Management has not completed its analysis of this new accounting
standard.

         FASB Statement No. 129, "Disclosure of Information about Capital
Structure", clarifies the extent and nature of disclosures relating to an
entity's capital structure.  This new standard will become effective for the
Corporation's year end 1997 consolidated financial statements and, upon
implementation, is not expected to have a material impact.

         A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are
currently under study by standard-setting organizations and various regulatory
agencies.  Because of the tentative and preliminary nature of those proposed
standards, management has not determined whether implementation of such
proposed standards would be material to the Corporation's financial statements.

                                 PART I, ITEM 2


          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                           AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Financial Condition

         Total assets amounted to $572.8 million at June 30, 1997, an increase
of $80.5 million from the December 31, 1996 level of $492.3 million.  The
consolidated balance sheets include the Corporation and its majority-owned
subsidiaries.

         During the six months ended June 30, 1997, two de novo banks and a
second tier bank holding company were added.  Effective May 22, 1997, Sun
Community Bancorp Limited ("Sun"), a bank holding company, was formed in
Tucson, Arizona for the purpose of acquiring a 100% ownership interest in Bank
of Tucson (a 51% owned de novo bank formed in June, 1996).  Sun was capitalized
with $4.5 million, of which $2.3 million was invested by the Corporation
(funded primarily by proceeds from exercise of stock warrants and borrowings)
and the remainder was invested by individuals and other entities located in the
Tucson/Scottsdale area.

         In June 1997, Sun completed a $4.5 million offering of 250,000 shares
of common stock including $2.3 million invested by the Corporation maintaining
its 51% interest in Sun.  Proceeds from the offering are expected to be used in
Sun's expansion activities, primarily de novo bank development.

         On June 30, 1997 Valley First Community Bank, a de novo commercial
bank, commenced operations in Scottsdale, Arizona.  The Bank was capitalized
with $4.5 million, of which $2.3 million was invested by Sun with the remainder
invested by individuals and other entities primarily located in the Scottsdale
and Phoenix area.  Valley First Community Bank is 51% owned by Sun and,
accordingly, is consolidated with Sun for financial reporting purposes.

         Because of the Corporation's majority interest in Sun, Sun's
consolidated financial position and results of operations are included in the
Corporation's consolidated financial statements with corresponding accounting
recognition of applicable minority interest.

         Brighton Commerce Bank, in Brighton, Michigan, was formed in early
January 1997 and was capitalized with $2.7 million of which $1.6 million was
invested by the Corporation.  The Corporation's investment in this new bank was
funded primarily from proceeds from exercise of stock options and borrowings.
The Corporation owns 59% of the common stock of Brighton Commerce Bank and,
accordingly, it is consolidated for financial reporting purposes with
corresponding accounting recognition given to applicable minority interest.

         Portfolio loans increased during the 1997 six-month period by
approximately $66 million, more than double the corresponding net volume in
1996.  Of the interim 1997 loan growth, $20 million occurred at Ann Arbor
Commerce Bank, resulting from its significant asset





                                 Page 8 of 19 
<PAGE>   9

and deposit growth during the period.  Loan growth was generally funded by
higher levels of interest-bearing deposits.  The majority of 1997 portfolio
loan growth occurred in commercial loans, which increased approximately $51
million, consistent with the banks' emphasis on commercial lending activities.

         The allowance for loan losses at June 30, 1997 approximated $5.3
million or 1.26% of total portfolio loans, approximating the year-end 1996
ratio of 1.28%.  Provisions for loan losses have been maintained at a higher
level in 1997 ($966,000) relative to 1996 ($477,000) commensurate with
portfolio growth, levels of delinquent and other nonperforming loans and other
factors.

         The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed
adequate by management to absorb potential losses in the loan portfolio.
Management's determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on
evaluation of the portfolio (including volume, amount and composition,
potential impairment of individual loans and concentrations of credit), past
loss experience, current economic conditions, loan commitments outstanding and
other factors.

         The following table summarizes portfolio loan balances and activity in
the allowance for loan losses for the interim periods (in thousands):

         The allowance for loan losses is a general allowance for the loan
portfolio.  For internal purposes, management allocates the allowance to all
loan classifications.  The amounts allocated in the following table (in
thousands), which includes all loans for which, based on the Corporation's loan
rating system management has concerns, should not be interpreted as an
indication of future charge-offs.  In addition, amounts allocated are not
intended to reflect the amount that may be available for future losses, since
the allowance is a general allowance.

         In addition to the allowance for loan losses, certain loans in
Michigan are enrolled in a state government loan program and have additional
reserves established to provide for loss protection.  At June 30, 1997, total
loans under this program approximated $14.3 million.  Reserves related to these
loans, which are represented by earmarked funds on deposit at certain of the
bank subsidiaries, approximated $1.6 million and are not included in the
recorded allowance for loan losses.

         Impaired loans (i.e., loans for which there is a reasonable
probability that borrowers would be unable to repay all principal and interest
due under the contractual terms of the loan documents) were not material in
1996 and through June 30, 1997.  Nonperforming loans (i.e., loans which are 90
days or more past due and loans on nonaccrual status) at June 30, 1997 amounted
to $3.4 million compared with $2.7 million at December 31, 1996 as summarized
in the following table (in thousands):

         Nonperforming loans increased approximately $700,000 during the
interim 1997 period.  Most of this increase occurred in loans in nonaccrual
status and relates to a small number of real estate loans in various stages of
resolution.  Of such increase, more than $300,000 relates to loans for which
additional loss protection is available from certain governmental guarantees or
other credit enhancements.

         If nonperforming loans (including loans in nonaccrual status) had
performed in accordance with their contractual terms during the period,
additional interest income of $54,000  and $43,000 would have been recorded for
the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.  Interest income
recognized on loans in nonaccrual status for the period approximated $26,000
and $21,000, respectively.

         Other real estate owned (generally real estate acquired through
foreclosure or a deed in lieu of foreclosure and classified as a component of
other assets) approximated $185,000 at June 30, 1997, a decrease of $128,000
from the year-end 1996 level of $313,000 due to the sale of one property.

n/a - Not applicable.
(1) - Bank of Tucson and Macomb Community Bank, de novo banks, commenced
      operations in June and September 1996, respectively.
(2) - Brighton Commerce Bank and Valley First Community Bank, de novo
      banks, commenced operations in January and June 1997, respectively.
(3) - Effective May 22, 1997, Sun Community Bancorp Limited, a bank holding
      company 51% owned by the Corporation, was formed in Tucson, Arizona
      and acquired a 100% ownership interest in Bank of Tucson.

        Net interest income increased 30.1% during the six-month 1997 period
versus the corresponding period of 1996.

        Noninterest income increased in 1997 to $1,206,000 for the six-month
period, as compared with $695,000 for the corresponding 1996 period. The 1997
increase related primarily to a nonrecurring gain from the sale of a bank
building and land parcel.  Service charge income increased 2% and trust fee
income increased 20%.

        The provision for loan losses amounted to $966,000 for the six-month
1997 period as compared to $477,000 for the corresponding period of 1996.  The
increased interim provision for loan losses in 1997 relates primarily to
portfolio growth.  The provision for loan losses is based on management's
analysis of the loan portfolio as discussed elsewhere herein.

        Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 1997 approximated
$7.8 million compared with $5.6 million in 1996.  The increase in noninterest
expense is associated with newly formed banks, growth and increases in general
operating costs.



Liquidity and Capital Resources

        The principal funding source for asset growth and loan origination
activities is deposits.  Total deposits increased $68 million for the six month
1997 period, compared to $29 million in 1996.  Such growth occurred in all
deposit categories, with the majority coming from time





                                 Page 12 of 19 
<PAGE>   13

deposits.  The Corporation's banks generally do not rely on brokered deposits
as a key funding source; brokered deposits approximated $24.3 million as of
June 30, 1997.

        Cash and cash equivalents amounted to $61.8 million or 10.8% of total
assets at June 30, 1997 as compared with $63.3 million or 12.9% of total assets
at December 31, 1996.  As liquidity levels vary continuously based on customer
activities, amounts of cash and cash equivalents can vary widely at any given
point in time.  Management believes the Corporation's liquidity position at
June 30, 1997 is adequate to fund loan demand and meet depositor needs.

        In addition to cash and cash equivalents, a source of long-term
liquidity is the Corporation's marketable investment securities.  The
Corporation's liquidity requirements have not historically necessitated the
sale of investments in order to meet liquidity needs.  It also has not engaged
in active trading of its investments and has no intention of doing so in the
foreseeable future.  At June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996, the Corporation
had approximately $62 million and $49 million, respectively, of investment
securities classified as available for sale which can be utilized to meet
various liquidity needs as they arise.  In the interim 1997 period, maturities
from investment securities available for sale were deployed, in part, to fund
higher yielding commercial bank growth.

        At June 30, 1997, the Corporation had lines of credit from an unrelated
financial institution aggregating $10 million.  Under this credit facility,
borrowings outstanding approximated $7.6 million at June 30, 1997 ($3.5 million
at December 31, 1996).  Proceeds from 1997 borrowings have been deployed in de
novo bank formation and other expansion opportunities.  Future funding for
formation of new banks (to the extent not otherwise funded by internal capital
resources) or other needs may be met by additional future borrowings.  Under
the terms of the credit agreement, $8 million is convertible into long-term
notes; $2 million of the lines of credit are revolving and are reviewed
annually for continuance.

        Two of the Corporation's banks, (Oakland Commerce Bank and Ann Arbor
Commerce Bank) have secured lines of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank.
Borrowings thereunder approximated $3 million and additional borrowing capacity
approximated $20.6 million at June 30, 1997.

        The Corporation recently announced a third quarterly cash dividend of
$.10 per share (payable September 1, 1997 to shareholders of record as of
August 1, 1997).  The dividend amounts in 1997 represent an increase over the
dividends of $.0825 per share paid quarterly in 1996.

        As discussed previously, certain investment securities are designated
as "available for sale" and, accordingly, are adjusted to market value at the
balance sheet date (net of corresponding tax effect).  Changes in market values
of investment securities at their respective balance sheet dates marginally
decreased stockholders' equity during the six months ended June 30, 1997.

        The Corporation and its banks are subject to complex regulatory capital
requirements which require maintaining certain minimum capital ratios.  These
ratio measurements, in addition to certain other requirements, are used by
regulatory agencies to determine the level of regulatory intervention and
enforcement applied to financial institutions.  The Corporation





                                 Page 13 of 19 
<PAGE>   14

and each of its banks are in compliance with the regulatory requirements and
management expects to maintain such compliance in the foreseeable future.

        Shareholders' equity, as a percentage of total assets, approximated
7.5% at June 30, 1997, a decrease from the beginning of the year ratio of 8.2%.
Total capital funds, the Corporation's stockholders' equity and minority
interest in consolidated subsidiaries, approximated 9.2% of total assets at
June 30, 1997.  The Corporation and each of its banking subsidiaries continue
to exceed regulatory capital requirements as shown on the following page
(dollars in thousands):

   (1)  As a condition of bank charter approval, de novo banks are generally
        required to maintain Tier I leverage capital-to-total-assets ratios of
        not less than 8% for the first three full years of operations.

        During the six months ended June 30, 1997 the Corporation issued
218,283 shares of previously unissued common stock upon exercise of stock
options and warrants, yielding proceeds of $1.9 million.  Proceeds from
exercise of warrants ($1.2 million) relate to a 1994 merger transaction from
which such warrants expired June 30, 1997.

        Additionally, the Corporation entered into a transaction with its
employee stock ownership plan ("ESOP") whereby the ESOP purchased 60,176 shares
of previously unissued common stock, payable to the Corporation in the form of
a note in the amount of $1 million.  Such note receivable from the ESOP is
classified as a deduction from stockholders' equity and will be funded by
future ESOP contributions to be made by the Corporation and participating
subsidiaries.

        As of June 30, 1997, applications for regulatory approval to form de
novo banks in the Michigan communities of Muskegon and Grand Rapids were
pending which, if approved and subject to other contingencies, would be
majority owned by the Corporation.

        The Corporation's operating strategy continues to be focused on the
ongoing growth and maturity of its existing banks, coupled with de novo bank
expansion in selected markets as opportunities arise.  Management continues to
be actively engaged in the ongoing process of exploring opportunities for
future growth (which includes de novo bank formation and other growth
strategies).  Accordingly, the Corporation may invest in or otherwise add
additional banks in future periods, subject to economic conditions and other
factors, although the timing of such additional banking units, if any, is
uncertain.  Such future de novo banks and/or additions of other operating units
could be either wholly-owned, majority-owned or otherwise controlled by the
Corporation.

        Management believes the Corporation's capital resources at June 30,
1997 to be adequate to fund existing operations, future growth and expansion.


Impact of New Accounting Standards

        The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") has issued certain
new standards which affect accounting and financial reporting.

        FASB Statement No. 128, "Earnings per Share", will revise the
computation and reporting of earnings per share.  This new standard is intended
to simplify the basis upon which per-share amounts are determined, replacing
"primary" earnings per share with "basic" earnings per share.  "Fully diluted"
earnings per share will be replaced by "diluted" earnings per share. The
Statement will become effective for the Corporation's year end 1997
consolidated financial statements and will result in restatement of per-share
amounts for prior periods.  Early adoption of the new standard is not
permitted.  Management has not completed its analysis of this new accounting
standard.

        FASB Statement No. 129, "Disclosure of Information about Capital
Structure", clarifies the extent and nature of disclosures relating to an
entity's capital structure.  This new standard will become effective for the
Corporation's year end 1997 consolidated financial statements

and, upon implementation, is not expected to have a material impact.

        At any time, there are a number of proposed new accounting standards
under consideration by standard-setting bodies, bank regulatory agencies and
other entities.  Because of the fluid status of such proposals, the potential
impact thereof on the Corporation's financial statements is unclear.
