Board and Committee Meetings

        The Board of Directors met three times during the 1998 fiscal year.
Standing committees of the Board include an Audit Committee and a Compensation
Committee, both of which met concurrently with the Board of Directors during the
period. The audit committee held one additional meeting in 1998.

        The Audit Committee is comprised of Messrs. Gardner (Chairman), and
Kramer. All members are non-employee directors. The Committee addresses matters
which include, among other things, (1) making recommendations to the Board of
Directors regarding engagement of independent auditors, (2) reviewing with the
Company's financial management the plans for, and results of, the independent
audit engagement, (3) reviewing the adequacy of the Company's system of internal
accounting controls, (4) monitoring the Company's internal audit program to
assure that areas of potential risk are adequately covered and (5) reviewing
legal and regulatory matters that may have a material impact on the Company's
financial statements.

        The Compensation Committee is comprised of Messrs. Gardner (Chairman),
and Kramer. All members are non-employee directors. The Committee's primary
functions are to determine remuneration policies applicable to the Company's
executive officers and to determine the bases of the compensation of the Chief
Executive Officer, including the factors and criteria on which such compensation
is to be based.

        During the last fiscal year, each incumbent director other than Mr.
Bradley, Jr. attended all meetings of the Board of Directors and all meetings of
committees of the Board on which he served. Mr. Bradley, Jr. attended one
meeting.

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

        Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange
Act") requires Company's directors and executive officers, and holders of more
than 10% of the Company's Common Stock to file with the SEC initial reports of
ownership and reports of changes in ownership of Common Stock and other equity
securities of the Company. Such officers, directors and 10% stockholders are
required by SEC regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section
16(a) forms they file.

        Based solely on its review of such forms that it received, or written
representations from reporting persons that no Forms 5 were required for such
person, the Company believes that, during fiscal 1998, the Section 16(a) filing
requirements under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act were satisfied on a timely
basis.

(1) Cash bonuses for services rendered have been listed in the year earned.

(2) Car allowances are provided to Mr. Caton and Mr. Hinton at the rate of
    $6,600 annually.

(3) Termination of Stock Option Plans

        In June 1996 the Board of Directors adopted, subject to shareholder
approval, the 1996 Incentive Stock Option Plan (the "Incentive Plan") and the
1996 Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan (the "Director Plan"). The
Incentive Plan provided for, among other things, the grant to key employees of
the Company of options to purchase shares of NAB Common Stock. The Director Plan
provided for, among other things, the grant of options to purchase shares of NAB
Common Stock to directors of the Company who were not also employees of the
Company.

        In September 1997 the Board of Directors terminated the Incentive Plan
and the Director Plan, and, by agreement with the optionees, terminated all
outstanding options under both plans. Accordingly, the Company currently has no
employee or director stock option plans, and there are no currently outstanding
stock options held by any employee or director.



                                       4
<PAGE>   5

        In April 1998 the Board of Director's authorized the Company to make
payments as compensation in lieu of the options. In each case, the amount of the
payment was determined by multiplying the number of shares subject to the option
by the amount by which $5.00 exceeded the applicable per share option exercise
price. In 1998, Mr. Caton was paid $264,000 and Mr. Ferree was paid $25,000.

        Remaining payments due to Messrs. Caton and Ferree of $132,000 and
$50,000 respectively, are subject to their continued employment with the
Company.

        Employment Agreements

        Mr. Caton has an Employment Agreement with NAB pursuant to which he is
serving as President of the Company for a term that ends on June 30, 1999 and
for a salary at the following annual rates: $160,000 for 1996; $185,000 for
1997; and $210,000 during the period from January 1, 1998 through June 30, 1999.
Under the agreement, he receives a car allowance of $550 per month and is
eligible to receive a bonus each year in an amount up to 50% of his salary for
such year, as determined by the Board of Directors. The agreement also provides
for the payment to him of an amount equal to 5% of the aggregate increase, if
any, in the value of NAB's equity investments in its subsidiaries, measured as
of the earlier of June 30, 2001 or the end of the month prior to the month in
which his employment terminates. If his employment with NAB is terminated
without cause or because of disability, NAB is obligated to continue to pay him
the salary specified in the agreement for a period ending on the later to occur
of June 30, 1999 or the first anniversary of the date of his termination, except
that, in the case of disability, the salary continuation is reduced by the
amount of any benefits he receives from disability insurance provided by NAB.

        Mr. Hinton has an Employment Agreement with MPS, pursuant to which he is
serving as President and Chief Executive Officer of MPS for a salary at the
current rate of $225,000 per year. Under the agreement, he receives a car
allowance of $550 per month and is eligible to receive an annual bonus at the
discretion of the Board of Directors of MPS. If his employment with MPS
terminates without cause or because of disability, MPS is obligated to continue
to pay him the salary for a period ending on the first anniversary of the date
of his termination, except that, in the case of disability, the salary
continuation is reduced by the amount of any benefits he receives from
disability insurance provided by MPS.

        MPS Incentive Plan Restructure

        In 1997, the Company entered into agreements with the executives of MPS,
including Mr. Hinton that granted options to them, exercisable only if certain
conditions are satisfied, to acquire up to 20% of the authorized common shares
of MPS. The number of shares to be issued pursuant to the agreements was
dependent upon several factors, including the future earnings and value of MPS.

        On June 26, 1998 the Company, MPS and the MPS executives entered into a
Restructure Agreement that terminated the options. In exchange for the
termination of the options the Company entered into a deferred compensation
arrangement with the executives that requires the Company to pay annual
installments of $1,121,000, $1,101,000 and $1,101,000 in the years 1999, 2000
and 2001, respectively, to them subject to continuous continues employment with
the Company. If an MPS executive is terminated without cause all remaining
amounts due to such executive under the deferred compensation arrangement
becomes immediately payable. Mr. Hinton's portion of the annual installments,
assuming continued employment, totals $442,333, $422,333 and $422,333 for 1999,
2000 and 2001, respectively.

        The Company also granted loans totaling $3,040,000 to the MPS executives
repayable in three equal annual installments, plus interest at 5.7% per annum,
beginning June 30, 1999. The loans are secured by the MPS shares owned by each
executive, which aggregates approximately 19% of the outstanding shares of MPS.
If the executive terminates for any reason prior to the end of the three-year



                                       5
<PAGE>   6

period, all remaining amounts under the note become immediately payable. Mr.
Hinton's loan from the Company totals $1,200,000.

        Compensation of Directors

        Directors who are officers or employees of the Company do not receive
any additional compensation for serving as directors or as members of committees
of the Board of Directors. Directors who are not officers or employees of the
Company each receive a annual retainer of $15,000 and a fee of $750 for each
meeting of the Board of Directors or committee of the Board of Directors which
he attends. Directors are reimbursed for out-of-pocket costs incurred in
connection with attending meetings.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION IN COMPENSATION
DECISIONS

        During the last fiscal year, the Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors was composed of Messrs. James B. Gardner and Jeffrey W. Kramer. None
of these persons at any time has been an officer or employee of the Company or
any of its subsidiaries. In addition, there are no relationships among the
Company's executive officers, members of the Committee or entities whose
executives serve on the Board or the Committee that require disclosure under
applicable regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC").

REPORT OF COMPENSATION COMMITTEE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

        The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors provides advice and
recommendations to the Board of Directors concerning the salaries and bonuses of
the officers of NAB. The Board of Directors approves those salaries and bonuses.
This report describes the policies and principals, which shape the structure of
NAB's executive compensation program.

        NAB's executive compensation program is structured to achieve the
following objectives:

- -   to attract, retain and motivate highly qualified, energetic and talented
    executives; remove

- -   to create an incentive to increase stockholder returns by establishing a
    direct and substantial link between individual compensation and certain
    financial measures which have a direct effect on stockholder values, and;

- -   to create substantial long-term compensation opportunities for individual
    executive officers based not only on long-term corporate performance but
    also on sustained long-term individual performance.

        To achieve its compensation objectives, NAB has structured an executive
compensation program using a combination of short-term and long-term elements:
(i) annual salary, (ii) annual bonus, and (iii) in some cases, long-term
contingent performance bonuses. In addition, the executive officers of NAB are
eligible to receive other benefits such as medical benefits, which are generally
available to employees of NAB and its subsidiaries.

        In structuring the specific components of executive compensation, NAB is
guided by the following principles:

- -   annual compensation should be set within reasonable ranges of the annual
    compensation for similar positions with similarly sized and types of
    companies, which engage in, one or more of the principal businesses in which
    NAB engages.

- -   bonus payments should vary with the individual's performance and NAB's
    financial performance; and

- -   a significant portion of compensation should be in the form of long-term
    incentive compensation which aligns the interests of executives with those
    of the stockholders and which creates rewards for 



                                       6
<PAGE>   7

    long-term sustained company performance and the achievements of NAB's 
    strategic objectives and to the extent that a recipient exercises options 
    which have vested by the achievement of performance goals.

        CEO Compensation

        In 1998 NAB's current Chief Executive Officer (Mr. Bradley, Sr.)
received a salary at the rate of $125,000 per year. During 1998 he did not
receive a bonus or participate in any employee benefit programs of NAB. The
salary of the Chief Executive Officer was within or below the Compensation
Committee's salary range guidelines and objectives for the Company's officers.

COMPANY STOCK PERFORMANCE

        The following graph shows a comparison, for the period June 6, 1996
through December 31, 1998, of the cumulative total return for the Company as
compared to the NASDAQ Composite Index and the NASDAQ Financial Industry Index .
Prior to June 6, 1996 the Company was engaged in a business (real estate
ownership and management) which is unrelated to its current business (financial
services). Further, the Company's management changed completely on June 6, 1996,
as part of a reorganization. The Company believes therefore that a comparison
covering the period prior to June 6, 1996 would not be meaningful and could be
misleading.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

        In July 1996 the Company (1) purchased from CARS USA, Inc. ("CARS") 80%
of the common stock and 100% of the preferred stock of CARS for a total of
$500,000 and (2) made a $1,000,000 subordinated loan to CARS. Mr. Charles E.
Bradley, Jr., a NAB director, then owned a 10% equity interest in CARS. In June,
1997, after CARS had incurred losses of approximately $1,384,000, the Company
sold its debt and equity interests in CARS to a company owned by Mr. Bradley,
Sr., and Mr. Bradley, Jr., for a purchase price of $1,500,000, consisting of
$200,000 in cash and a $1,300,000 promissory note. On August 13, 1998, the
Company entered into a Debt Restructure Agreement with Stanwich Financial
Services, Corp. ("SFSC") a corporation owned 42.5% by Charles Bradley, Sr. and
42.5% by Charles Bradley, Jr., in which, among other things the note due from
the sale of CARS was exchanged for a corresponding reduction in the Company's
indebtedness to SFSC.

        Mr. Gardner provides consulting services to the Company and a subsidiary
of the Company. A total of $22,000 and $14,000 were paid to Mr. Gardner in 1998
and 1997 respectively, for those services.

        In June 1998 the Company granted a loan to Mr. Hinton totaling
$1,200,000 repayable in three equal annual installments, plus interest at 5.7%
per annum, beginning June 30, 1999.
The loan is secured by the MPS shares owned by Mr. Hinton.

        In September 1998 the Company borrowed $500,000 from SFSC pursuant to an
unsecured promissory note. The loan was paid off in 1998.

               In October 1998 the Company borrowed $800,000 from SFSC pursuant
to an unsecured promissory note. The loan was paid off in 1998.
