NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
CAPITOL BANCORP LTD.
NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Capitol
Bancorp Ltd. ("Capitol") 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 Capitol
considers necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods.
The results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending
December 31, 2000.
The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1999 was derived from
audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. Certain 1999 amounts
have been reclassified to conform to the 2000 presentation.
NOTE B - IMPLEMENTATION OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
AICPA Statement of Position 98-5, REPORTING ON THE COSTS OF START-UP
ACTIVITIES, requires start-up, preopening and organizational costs to be charged
to expense when incurred. The initial application of this statement, which
became effective January 1, 1999, required the write-off of any such costs
previously capitalized. Implementation of this new statement is shown as a
cumulative effect adjustment in the first quarter of 1999.
NOTE C - NEW BANKS AND PENDING BANK APPLICATIONS
Black Mountain Community Bank, located in Henderson, Nevada, opened in
March 2000. It is majority-owned by Nevada Community Bancorp Limited which is
majority-owned by Sun Community Bancorp Limited, a majority-owned subsidiary of
Capitol.
In early 2000, First California Northern Bancorp and First California
Southern Bancorp were formed to facilitate bank development strategies in
California.
At March 31, 2000, applications were pending for a new bank in New Mexico.

NOTE E - SUBSEQUENT EVENT
In early May 2000, Capitol completed a private placement of approximately
275,000 shares of common stock and 55,000 warrants (each such warrant permitting
the holder to purchase one share of common stock prior to the expiration date of
the warrant in May 2002). Proceeds from the offering approximated $3 million and
will be used for debt retirement and additional investment in bank development
activities.

<PAGE>
NOTE F - PROSPECTIVE IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS NOT YET ADOPTED
FASB Statement No. 133, ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING
ACTIVITIES, requires all derivatives to be recognized in financial statements
and to be measured at fair value. Gains and losses resulting from changes in
fair value would be included in income, or in comprehensive income, depending on
whether the instrument qualifies for hedge accounting and the type of hedging
instrument involved. This new standard will become effective in 2001 and,
because Capitol and its banks have not typically entered into derivative
contracts either to hedge existing risks or for speculative purposes, is not
expected to have a material effect on its financial statements.
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 these proposed
standards, management has not determined whether implementation of such proposed
standards would be material to Capitol's financial statements.

PART I, ITEM 2
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Total assets approximated $1.38 billion at March 31, 2000, an increase of
$74 million from the December 31, 1999 level of $1.31 billion. The consolidated
balance sheets include Capitol and its majority-owned subsidiaries.
Portfolio loans increased during the three-month period by approximately
$83 million. Loan growth was funded primarily by higher levels of time deposits.
The majority of portfolio loan growth occurred in commercial loans, which
increased approximately $76 million, consistent with the banks' emphasis on
commercial lending activities. Portfolio loan growth in 2000 is net of about $10
million of loans sold to other financial institutions.
The allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2000 approximated $13.9 million
or 1.22% of total portfolio loans, a slight increase from the year-end 1999
ratio of 1.20%.
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed adequate by
management to absorb potential losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the
balance sheet date. 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 table below summarizes portfolio loan balances and activity in the
allowance for loan losses for the interim periods (in thousands):

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 Capitol'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.

In addition to the allowance for loan losses, certain loans to Michigan
borrowers are enrolled in a state government loan program and have additional
reserves established to provide for loss protection. At March 31, 2000, total
loans under this program approximated $34.5 million. Reserves related to these
loans, which are represented by earmarked funds on deposit at certain of the
bank subsidiaries, approximated $2 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 1999 and through
March 31, 2000.
Nonperforming loans (i.e., loans which are 90 days or more past due and
loans on nonaccrual status) are summarized below (in thousands):
March 31 Dec 31
2000 1999
------ ------
Nonaccrual loans:
Commercial $3,261 $2,709
Real estate 2 103
Installment 138 100

Total nonaccrual loans 3,401 2,912
Past due (>90 days) loans:
Commercial 1,443 834
Real estate 177 196
Installment 185 182
------ ------
Total past due loans 1,805 1,212
------ ------
Total nonperforming loans $5,206 $4,124
====== ======
Nonperforming loans increased approximately $1.1 million during the
three-month period ended March 31, 2000. Most of the nonaccrual loans at March
31, 2000 are a small number of loans in various stages of resolution which
management believes to be adequately collateralized or otherwise appropriately
considered in its determination of the adequacy of the allowance for loan
losses.
If nonperforming loans (including loans in nonaccrual status) had performed
in accordance with their contractual terms during the period, additional
interest income of $93,000 and $150,000 would have been recorded for the three
months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Interest income recognized
on loans in nonaccrual status for those periods approximated $79,000 and
$12,000, 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 $3.2 million at March 31, 2000 and $3.6 million at December 31,
1999.

Results of Operations
Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2000 amounted to $1,718,000
($.25 per share), an increase from the $1,339,000 ($.21 per share) earned from
operations during the corresponding period of 1999. Net income in 1999, after
the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle, approximated
$1,142,000 ($.18 per share).
First quarter 2000 earnings were a new record level of income and net
income per share. This period was benefited by strong bank performance coupled
with earnings from Sun Community Bancorp, the southwestern bank development
affiliate.
Operating results (in thousands) were as follows:

(1) Commenced operations as DE NOVO banks in 1999.
(2) Commenced operations as a DE NOVO bank in 2000.
Net interest income increased 49.3% during the three-month period versus
the corresponding period of 1999. This increase is attributable to the expansion
in number of banks and the banks' growth.
Noninterest income increased in 2000 to $1,327,000 for the three-month
period, as compared with $1,041,000 in 1999. Service charge revenue and trust
fee income both increased in the 2000 period by 42.7% and 123.9%, respectively,
compared to 1999.
Provisions for loan losses approximated $1,362,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 2000 compared to $809,000 during the corresponding 1999 period.
The provisions for loan losses are based upon management's analysis of the
allowance for loan losses, as previously discussed.

<PAGE>
Noninterest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2000 approximated
$12 million compared with $8 million in 1999. The increase in noninterest
expense is associated with newly formed banks, growth and increases in general
operating costs. Increases in both employee compensation and occupancy mostly
relate to the growth in number of banks within the consolidated group.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The principal funding source for asset growth and loan origination
activities is deposits. Total deposits increased $83.2 million for the three
month 2000 period, compared to $47.9 million in 1999. Such growth occurred in
all deposit categories, with the majority coming from time deposits. Capitol's
banks generally do not rely on brokered deposits as a key funding source;
brokered deposits approximated $47 million as of March 31, 2000, or about 4% of
total deposits.
Interim 2000 deposit growth was deployed primarily into commercial loans,
consistent with the banks' emphasis on commercial lending activities.
Cash and cash equivalents amounted to $127.1 million or 9.2% of total
assets at March 31, 2000 as compared with $104 million or 8% of total assets at
December 31, 1999. 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 banks' liquidity position at March 31,
2000 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 banks' marketable investment securities. Liquidity needs have not
historically necessitated the sale of investments in order to meet funding
requirements. The banks also have not engaged in active trading of their
investments and have no intention of doing so in the foreseeable future. At
March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, the banks had approximately $78 million
and $103 million, respectively, of investment securities classified as available
for sale which can be utilized to meet various liquidity needs as they arise.
During the first quarter of 2000, available-for-sale securities aggregating $1
million were sold.
Eight of the Corporation's banks, (Capitol National Bank, Portage Commerce
Bank, Paragon Bank & Trust, Macomb Community Bank, Brighton Commerce Bank, Grand
Haven Bank, Oakland Commerce Bank and Ann Arbor Commerce Bank) have secured
lines of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis. Borrowings
thereunder approximated $15 million and additional borrowing capacity
approximated $18.1 million at March 31, 2000.
In February 2000, Capitol's borrowings under lines of credit from an
unaffiliated bank were reduced through intercompany borrowings from Sun
Community Bancorp Limited. At March 31, 2000, Capitol had unused lines of credit
from an unrelated financial institution aggregating $15.9 million.
Capitol's Board of Directors recently approved a second quarter cash
dividend of $.09 per share (payable June 1, 2000 to shareholders of record as of
May 1, 2000), following a cash dividend of $.09 per share paid March 1, 2000.

Effective January 31, 2000, the Corporation acquired the minority shares of
Brighton Commerce Bank, previously a 59% owned bank subsidiary, in a share
exchange transaction. Under the terms of the exchange, the Corporation issued
approximately 125,000 previously unissued shares. As a result of the share
exchange transaction, Brighton Commerce Bank became a wholly-owned subsidiary.
In early May 2000, Capitol completed a private placement of approximately
275,000 shares of common stock and 55,000 warrants (each such warrant permitting
the holder to purchase one share of common stock prior to the expiration date of
the warrant, May 2002). Proceeds from the offering approximated $3 million and
will be used for debt retirement and additional investment in bank development
activities.
Capitol 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. Capitol and each of its banks are
in compliance with the regulatory requirements and management expects to
maintain such compliance.
Stockholders' equity, as a percentage of total assets, approximated 4.1% at
March 31, 2000, a slight decrease from the beginning of the year ratio of 4.2%.
Total capital funds (Capitol's stockholders' equity, plus minority interests in
consolidated subsidiaries, plus guaranteed preferred beneficial interests in the
corporation's subordinated debentures) aggregated $137.3 million or 9.95% of
total assets at March 31, 2000. The following table summarizes the amounts and
related ratios of individually significant subsidiaries (assets of $130 million
or more at the beginning of 2000) and consolidated regulatory capital position
at March 31, 2000:

Capitol's operating strategy continues to be focused on the ongoing growth
and maturity of its existing banks, coupled with new bank expansion in selected
markets as opportunities arise. Accordingly, Capitol may invest in or otherwise
develop 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 new banks and/or additions of other operating units could
be either wholly-owned, majority-owned or otherwise controlled by Capitol.

CENTURY DATE CHANGE
Throughout 1999, significant attention was drawn to the century date change
and concerns about whether banks were prepared. What was predicted by some media
to become a catastrophic disaster of computer failures, proved to be a nonevent.
Capitol and its banks were well prepared, far in advance of the regulatory
initiatives, and were pleased to celebrate the new year without any significant
problems.
Bank regulatory agencies have advised that they remain somewhat concerned
about the banking industry on this matter for the remainder of 2000 and are
likely to perform some limited follow-up examinations during the period.
Management estimates additional future costs relating to the century date change
will be minimal.
IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
As discussed elsewhere herein, a new accounting standard requiring the
write-off of previously capitalized start-up and preopening costs was
implemented effective January 1, 1999. That standard requires that such costs be
charged to expense, when incurred, in future periods.
FASB Statement No. 133, ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING
ACTIVITIES, requires all derivatives to be recognized in financial statements
and to be measured at fair value. Gains and losses resulting from changes in
fair value would be included in income, or in comprehensive income, depending on
whether the instrument qualifies for hedge accounting and the type of hedging
instrument involved. This new standard will become effective in 2001 and,
because Capitol and its banks have not typically entered into derivative
contracts either to hedge existing risks or for speculative purposes, is not
expected to have a material effect on its financial statements.
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 these proposed
standards, management has not determined whether implementation of such proposed
standards would be material to Capitol's financial statements.

Item 6. Exhibits and reports on Form 8-K.
(a) Exhibits:
(27) Financial Data Schedule.
(b) Reports on Form 8-K:
A report on Form 8-K was filed on January 14, 2000, reporting two
related matters:
Capitol is adding an acquisition strategy to its bank development
activities. In recent years, Capitol has emphasized adding affiliated
banks through DE NOVO, or start-up, activity. This successful emphasis
has been key to expanding Capitol's group to include more than twenty
banks in several states. Augmenting this focus is the new addition of
an acquisition strategy which will enable Capitol to add banks in two
ways--acquisition and start-up.
Capitol announced the creation of a new management position to
implement this additional bank development strategy. Michael M. Moran
has joined Capitol as Executive Vice President of Corporate
Development, to focus on acquisition opportunities. Mr. Moran has
significant experience in the banking industry and was previously
affiliated with the investment banking firm of Raymond James &
Associates, Inc. and its predecessor, Roney & Co., in Detroit,
Michigan.
