               AMERICA FIRST EUREKA HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 JUNE 30, 1997

1.  ORGANIZATION

    America First Eureka Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") is a wholly owned
    subsidiary of America First Financial Fund 1987-A Limited Partnership (the
    "Partnership"), and was formed for the purpose of owning and managing one or
    more acquired financial institutions. The Company acquired EurekaBank
    ("Eureka") on May 27, 1988 (the "Acquisition").

2.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

    The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of
    the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Eureka and its subsidiaries.
    All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

    In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
    financial statements contain all adjustments (primarily consisting of normal
    recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's
    financial condition as of June 30, 1997, and the results of its operations
    for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996.

3.  ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

    The Company recorded loan loss provisions of approximately $250,000 and
    $502,000 for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997, respectively,
    as compared to $372,000 and $780,000 for the same periods in 1996,
    respectively. At June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996, the allowance for loan
    losses was approximately $7.2 million and $7.1 million, respectively.
    Management believes that the allowance for loan losses was adequate given
    the composition, credit characteristics and loss experience of the loan
    portfolio.
    
4.  INTEREST RATE EXCHANGE AGREEMENTS

    Prior to 1993, the Company entered into interest rate exchange agreements to
    reduce the impact of future fluctuations in interest rates on fixed rate
    mortgages funded by variable rate liabilities. The floating rates to be
    received by the Company under the terms of these agreements are reset
    monthly, quarterly or semi-annually and are generally indexed to the FHLB
    Eleventh District Cost of Funds index or the one or three month London
    Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR").

    In 1993, the sustained decline in interest rates in the general economy and
    the resulting prepayment of mortgage loans associated with the interest rate
    exchange agreements caused Eureka to establish a liability based on the
    estimated fair value of interest rate exchange agreements that were no
    longer deemed effective as hedges. During the quarter ended June 30, 1997,
    Eureka recorded a provision to non-interest expense on interest rate
    exchange agreements of approximately $131,000 to reflect the effect of
    interest rate decreases on the market value of Eureka's related obligations.
    A net recovery of approximately $5,000 was recorded for the six months ended
    June 30, 1997. During the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1996, Eureka
    recorded to non-interest expense recoveries on interest rate exchange
    agreements of approximately $100,000 and $569,000, respectively, to reflect
    the effect of interest rate increases on the market value of Eureka's
    related obligations. The recorded liability for the interest rate exchange
    agreements totaled approximately $609,000 and $1.2 million at June 30, 1997
    and December 31, 1996, respectively. Net interest payable on interest rate
    exchange agreements was $447,000 and $629,000 at June 30, 1997 and December
    31, 1996, respectively, and was included in other liabilities and accrued
    expenses.

    For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997, net interest expense on
    interest rate exchange agreements (after amortization of the interest rate
    exchange agreement liability of $222,000 and $619,000, respectively) totaled

                                       5

               AMERICA FIRST EUREKA HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

    approximately $205,000 and $419,000, respectively. For the quarter and six
    months ended June 30, 1996, net interest expense on interest rate exchange
    agreements (after amortization of the interest rate exchange agreement
    liability of $428,000 and $1.1 million, respectively) totaled approximately
    $258,000 and $385,000, respectively. Net interest expense on interest rate
    exchange agreements is included as an adjustment to interest income on
    loans. The notional amount of interest rate exchange agreements outstanding
    was $80 million and $100 million at June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996,
    respectively.

5.  INCOME TAXES

    The consolidated financial statement provisions for income tax for the
    quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 relate to the Company
    and its subsidiary. The Company and its subsidiary file calendar year
    consolidated federal income and combined California franchise tax returns.

    Deferred tax assets are initially recognized for net operating loss and tax
    credit carryforwards and differences between the financial statements
    carrying amount and the tax bases of assets and liabilities which will
    result in future deduction amounts. A valuation allowance is established to
    reduce the deferred tax assets to the level at which it is more likely than
    not that the tax benefits will be recognized.

    A valuation allowance is recorded if it is more likely than not that some
    portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized based on a
    review of available evidence. The allowance is subject to ongoing adjustmets
    based on changes in circumstances that affect management's assessment of the
    realizability of the deferred tax assets. Adjustments to increase or
    decrease the valuation allowance are charged or credited, respectively, to
    income tax expense (benefit).

6.  PROPOSED MERGER WITH BAY VIEW CAPITAL CORPORATION

    On May 8, 1997, the Partnership announced that it had entered into a
    definitive agreement with Bay View Capital Corporation with respect to a
    merger of its subsidiary America First Eureka Holdings with Bay View (the
    "Merger Agreement"). Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the
    Partnership will receive $90 million in cash and $210 million in Bay View
    common stock (subject to a minimum of 8,076,922 shares and a maximum of
    10,000,000 shares) for its interest in America First Eureka Holdings, which
    owns Eureka. If the market price of Bay View common stock (based on the
    average closing prices over a specified period) is less than $21.00 per
    share, the Partnership has the right to terminate the Merger Agreement
    unless the total value of the shares of Bay View common stock to be received
    is $210 million in addition to the cash portion of $90 million. The
    transaction is expected to close on December 31, 1997 or January 2, 1998,
    and is subject to customary conditions, including regulatory approval and
    approval by the BUC holders. Please refer to the Partnership's Form 8-K
    dated May 16, 1997 for further information. The above Bay View shares to be
    received by the Partnership under the terms of the Merger Agreement are
    adjusted for a Bay View 100% stock dividend declared on April 14, 1997 to
    Bay View stockholders of record on May 9, 1997.

    In May 1997, $10 million of the preferred stock issued to the FDIC was
    redeemed. The $10 million of mandatorily redeemable non-voting Series A
    Preferred Stock that remains outstanding is scheduled for redemption in May
    1998, but will be redeemed when the merger is completed.

    Under the terms of the Assistance Agreement, and as a result of the Merger
    Agreement discussed above, the Partnership expects to pay a final
    participation payment to the FDIC of approximately $12.8 million from cash
    received at the time of the merger. The final participation payment is in
    addition to the redemption of the remaining $10 million in outstanding
    Series A Preferred Stock.
