NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 1999
Note 1.
General
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and with
the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X for interim
financial information. Accordingly, the adequacy of the disclosure contained
herein has been determined with the presumption that the users of these interim
financial statements have read or have access to the Annual Report on Form 10-K
of Monterey Bay Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") for the year ended December 31,
1998. Only material changes in financial condition and results of operations are
discussed in the remainder of Part I of this Quarterly Report.
In the opinion of the management of the Company and its subsidiary,
Monterey Bay Bank (the "Bank"), the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting solely of normal
recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's
consolidated financial condition at September 30, 1999, and December 31, 1998,
the results of its operations for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1999 and 1998, and its cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 1999
and 1998. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation. Results of operations for any interim period are
not necessarily indicative of the operating results that may be expected for any
other interim period or for the entire year.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is
required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities as of the dates of the balance sheets and revenues and
expenses for the periods covered. Actual results could differ significantly from
those estimates and assumptions.

Note 3.
Recently issued Accounting Pronouncements
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133 "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". The statement establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging
activities. The statement is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2000. The Company is in the process of determining the
impact of SFAS No. 133 on the Company's financial statements.
In October 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 134, "Accounting for
Mortgage-Backed Securities Retained after the Securitization of Mortgage Loans
Held for Sale by a Mortgage Banking Enterprise". The Company adopted this
statement on January 1, 1999. It allows companies that hold mortgage loans for
sale to classify mortgage-backed securities retained in a securitization of such
loans as either held-to-maturity, available for sale, or trading based on
management's intentions. This guidance is consistent with the treatment
established for investments covered by SFAS 115, "Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities". The adoption of this statement was
not material to the financial results of the Company.
Note 4.
Subsequent Event
The Company announced on October 22, 1999 that it was resuming the
repurchase program, which permits the repurchase of up to 10%, or 350,535 shares
of its outstanding common stock. Since that time, the Company has repurchased
42,500 shares of common stock for $588,787.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and
Financial Condition
Monterey Bay Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") is a savings and loan
holding company incorporated in 1994 under the laws of the State of Delaware.
The Company was organized as the holding company for Monterey Bay Bank ("the
Bank") in connection with the Bank's conversion from the mutual to stock form of
ownership. On February 14, 1995, the Company issued and sold 4,492,086 shares of
its common stock at an issuance price of $6.40 per share, adjusted for splits,
to complete the conversion. Net proceeds to the Company were $27.1 million,
including shares purchased by the employee stock ownership plan, after deduction
of conversion expenses and underwriting fees of $1.6 million. The Company used
$13.5 million of the net proceeds to acquire all of the stock of the Bank. The
Bank owns a subsidiary, Portola Investment Corporation ("Portola"), which sells
insurance and brokerage services.
The Company's primary business is providing conveniently located
deposit facilities to attract checking, money market, savings and certificate of
deposit accounts, and investing such deposits and other available funds in
mortgage loans secured by one-to-four family residences, construction,
commercial real estate, and business loans. The Bank's deposit gathering and
lending markets are primarily concentrated in the communities surrounding its
full service offices located in Santa Cruz, Monterey, and Santa Clara counties,
in California. At September 30, 1999, the Bank had eight full service offices
and one administrative office.

Safe Harbor Statement for Forward-Looking Statements
This report contains certain forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section
21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking
statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe future plans,
strategies, and expectations of the Company, are generally identifiable by use
of the words "believe," "expect," "intend," "anticipate," "estimate," "project"
or similar expressions. The Company's ability to predict results or the actual
effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which
could have a material adverse affect on the operations and future prospects of
the Company include, but are not limited to, changes in: interest rates, general
economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, monetary and fiscal
policies of the U.S. Government, including policies of the U.S. Treasury and the
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the quality or composition of
the loan or investment portfolios, demand for loan products, deposit flows,
competition, demand for financial services in the Company's market area and
accounting principles, policies and guidelines. These risks and uncertainties
should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance
should not be placed on such statements.
Results of Operations for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 1999 and
1998
Overview
The Company reported net income of $950,000, or $.28 per basic share,
for the quarter ended September 30, 1999, compared to net income of $460,000, or
$.13 per basic share, for the same period last year. Diluted earnings per share
were $.27 for the third quarter of 1999, compared to $.12 a year ago. Third
quarter 1999 earnings were higher than earnings for the similar period a year
ago primarily due to substantial increases in net interest income resulting from
higher levels of loans receivable and decreases in the cost of funds. Return on
average equity was 9.04% and return on average assets was .84% for the three
month period ended September 30, 1999 compared to 4.14% and .42%, respectively a
year ago. Return on average equity was 8.53% and return on average assets was
.79% for the nine month period ended September 30, 1999 compared to 4.13% and
.42%, respectively a year ago. Net income for the first nine months of 1999 was
$2,656,000, or $.80 per basic share, an increase from $833,000, or $.23 per
basic share, recorded for the first nine months of 1998. Diluted earnings per
share for the nine month period ended September 30, 1999 was $.77 compared to
$.22 for the same period in 1998.
Net interest income before provision for loan losses and recurring
noninterest income rose $1.2 million and $3.0 million for the three and nine
month periods ended September 30, 1999, respectively, from the comparable
periods in 1998. The increase in net interest income was primarily due to growth
in loans receivable and decreases in the cost of funds. While deposits have not
grown during either the three or nine month periods ended September 30, 1999,
compared to the same periods in 1998, the mix of deposits has changed.
Transaction accounts (defined as checking, money market, and passbook accounts)
represent $152.4 million or 41.2% of total deposits at September 30, 1999,
compared to $113.6 million or 30.6% at December 31, 1998.
The most significant component of the Company's revenue is net interest
income, which represents the difference between interest income, primarily from
loans, mortgage-backed securities, and the investment portfolio, and interest
expense, primarily on deposits and borrowings. The Company's net interest income
and net interest margin, which is defined as net interest income divided by
average interest-earning assets, are affected by its asset growth and quality,
its asset and liability composition, and the general interest rate environment.
8
<PAGE>
Service charges, mortgage loan servicing fees, and commissions from the
sale of insurance products and investments through Portola also have significant
effects on the Company's results of operations. General and administrative
expenses consist primarily of employee compensation, occupancy expenses, federal
deposit insurance premiums, data processing fees and other operating expenses.
The Company's results of operations are also significantly affected by general
economic and competitive conditions, particularly changes in market interest
rates, government policies, and actions of regulatory agencies.
Recently, the Company has focused its efforts on becoming more like a
community-based commercial bank by increasing its commercial real estate,
construction, multi-family and business lending activities. As well, the Company
is focusing its deposit gathering efforts on small businesses in its primary
market, which will complement the business lending function. Separately, the
Company will continue to pursue growth in lower cost transaction deposit
accounts (checking, passbook, and money market accounts).

Interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 1999, increased by
10.7% to $8.6 million, compared to $7.7 million for the third quarter of 1998.
For the nine months ended September 30, 1999, total interest income was $25.0
million, a 10.4% increase compared to $22.6 million during the same period in
1998. The primary reason for the increase in interest income for the three and
nine month periods ended September 30, 1999, compared to the same period in
1998, was the increase in average interest earning assets. The average balance
of interest earning assets was $431.0 million and $432.0 million for the three
and nine month periods ended September 30, 1999, respectively. These balances
compare favorably to the $415.0 million and $405.0 million average balance of
interest earning assets for the three and nine month periods ended September 30,
1998. The increase in average interest earning assets for the three month period
ended September 30, 1999 compared to the same period in 1998 was due to an $96.0
million increase in loans receivable, offset by a $45.0 million decrease in the
average balance of mortgage-backed securities and a $35.0 million decrease in
the average balance of investment securities.
The weighted average yield on interest earning assets increased to
7.97% and 7.71% for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1999,
compared to 7.46% for the same periods in 1998. The average yield on loans
receivable was slightly lower at 8.31% and 8.12% for the quarter and nine months
ended September 30, 1999, compared to 8.18% and 8.11% for the comparable periods
in 1998. The weighted average yield on interest earning assets during the three
and nine months ended September 30, 1999 increased compared to the same periods
in 1998 due to loans receivable for the quarter ended September 30, 1999
representing a larger percentage of total interest earning assets. Average loans
receivable for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1999 represented
80.5% and 76.4%, respectively, of total interest earning assets compared to
60.5% and 63.0%, respectively, for the same periods in 1998. The yield on loans
receivable is substantially higher than the yield on mortgage-backed and
investment securities. The Company is continuing to pursue its long-term
strategic goal to increase the net interest margin by replacing lower-yielding
securities with higher-yielding loans.
Interest expense was $4.2 million and $12.9 million, respectively for
the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1999, compared to $4.6 million
and $13.6 million, respectively for the same periods a year ago. The $400,000
decrease in interest expense for both the quarter and $700,000 decrease for the
nine months ended September 30, 1999 was due to a decline in both the average
rate and average balances in deposits primarily due to a decline in certificate
of deposits accounts, partially offset by an increase in the average balance in
money market accounts. The decline in the weighted average cost of deposits is
due to the success the Company has had in achieving its strategic goal of
9
<PAGE>
changing the mix of deposits to increase transaction accounts (checking,
passbook, and money market accounts) as well as a decline in rates paid on time
deposits. At September 30, 1999, the Company had $152.4 million in transaction
accounts or 41.2% of total deposits with a weighted average cost of 2.99%
(compared to $96.9 million or 26.1% of total deposits with a weighted average
cost of 2.53% at September 30, 1998.

Provision for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered
appropriate by management and is based on an ongoing assessment of the risks
inherent in the loan portfolio. The allowance is increased by the provision for
estimated loan losses, which is charged against operations, and is decreased by
the amount of net loans charged off during the period. In evaluating the
adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, management incorporates such factors
as collateral value, portfolio composition and concentration, and trends in
local and national economic conditions and the related impact on the financial
strength of the Company's borrowers. (See "Asset Quality.")
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999, the provision
for loan losses was $265,000 and $685,000, respectively, compared to $77,000 and
$682,000 for the same periods in 1998. The Company continued to increase its
provision for loan losses largely due to a net increase in higher risk forms of
lending. At September 30, 1999, the Company's allowance for loan losses totaled
$3.4 million or .93% of loans receivable, compared to $2.8 million or .92% of
loans receivable at December 31, 1998. At September 30, 1999, the Company had
real estate owned totaling $159,300, consisting of a single one-to four-family
residential property acquired through foreclosure in 1998. This property sold on
October 12, 1999 for $166,087, resulting in a small recovery. Nonperforming
loans totaled $704,804 or .19% of loans receivable at September 30, 1999
compared to $1.7 million, or .69% of loans receivable at September 30, 1998 and
$1.5 million, or .50% of loans receivable at December 31, 1998.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1999 was $564,000 and $2.0 million compared to $498,000 and $1.4 million for the
comparable periods in 1998, primarily due to increases in customer service
charges and commissions from sales on noninsured products. Included in
noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 were gains on
the sale of investment securities of $503,000. Excluding the increases in gain
on the sale of investment securities for the nine month period ended September
30, 1999 compared to the same period in 1998, noninterest income increased
$133,000 due primarily to a $162,000 increase in customer service charges. The
increase in customer service charges resulted from continuing growth in the
number of customer checking accounts resulting primarily from the continued
consolidation of financial institutions in the Company's market.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses were $3.0 million and $8.7 million
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999, compared to $2.7 million
and $8.1 million for similar periods in 1998. The $253,000 and $540,000 increase
in general and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1999 compared to the same periods in 1998 was primarily
attributable to increases in compensation and benefits, data processing fees and
occupancy and equipment expenses. The increases in general and administrative
expenses were primarily due to higher compensation and benefits and data
processing fees, as new employees were hired to support the Company's deposit
growth and the expansion of its branch locations and new product lines and
services.
General and administrative expense as a percentage of average assets
for the three month ended September 30, 1999 were 2.60%, compared to 2.50% for
the comparable period in 1998. More importantly, the efficiency ratio, which is
general and administrative expense divided by net interest income before
provision for loan losses plus noninterest revenue, improved during the three
months ended September 30, 1999 compared to similar periods in 1998. The
efficiency ratio for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 1999 was
60% and 62% respectively, compared to 75% and 78%, respectively for comparable
periods in 1998. The improvement in the efficiency ratio in 1999 was
12
<PAGE>
primarily due to improvements in net interest income and securities gains, and
to a lesser extent to efforts to contain growth in general and administrative
expenses.
COMPARISON OF CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION
Total assets of the Company were $463.7 million at September 30, 1999,
compared to $454.8 million at December 31, 1998, an increase of $8.9 million.
The slight increase in assets during the first nine months of 1999 was primarily
due to the growth in loans receivable partially offset by the sale of
mortgage-backed and corporate securities and prepayments on mortgage-backed
securities.
Mortgage-backed and investment securities decreased $44.8 million, or
38.1%, to $72.7 million, during the nine months ended September 30, 1999. These
decreases were offset by an increase of $60.0 million, or 20.1%, in loans
receivable during the same period.
Loans receivable held for investment were $358.8 million at September
30, 1999, compared to $298.8 million at December 31, 1998. Loans other than one
to four family residential real estate loans comprise $191.8 million or 53.0% of
loans receivable at September 30, 1999 compared to $119.8 million or 39.0% or
loans receivable. The Company successfully continued to focus its efforts on
changing its mix of interest earning assets by emphasizing construction,
commercial real estate, and business lending activities, resulting in increased
loan yields. However, these types of loans also carry greater credit risk than
do one to four family residential real estate loans. The growth in portfolio
loan fundings was due to a low interest rate environment, which promotes loan
production, additions to sales staff, and the expansion of the Company's
portfolio lending into construction, commercial, multi-family, and business
lending.
At September 30, 1999, the Company's permanent commercial real estate
loan portfolio was $67.1 million, or 18.5% of total loans receivable, up from
$37.9 million, or 12.7% of total loans receivable at December 31, 1998. At
September 30, 1999, the Company had $53.8 million or 14.8% of net construction
loans compared to $27.5 million, or 9.2%, at December 31, 1998. Construction
loans are made primarily to residential builders and to commercial property
developers. At September 30, 1999, the Company had $40.0 million of multi-family
residential loans, or 11.1% of total loans receivable, up from $35.4 million, or
11.9%, at December 31, 1998. The Company also had business loans totaling $30.8
million, or 8.5%, of total loans receivable, at September 30, 1999, compared to
$19.0 million, or 6.4%, at December 31, 1998. The Company's one to four family
residential real estate loans totaled $167.0 million, or 47.0%, at September 30,
1999 compared to $179.0 million, or 61.0%, at December 31, 1998.
During the nine months ended September 30, 1999, the Company's
liabilities increased by $7.7 million to $420.6 million, from $412.9 million at
December 31, 1998. The increase in liabilities was primarily attributable to an
increase of $9.4 million in borrowings. Deposits of $370.0 million were largely
unchanged from December 31, 1998. Continued emphasis has been placed on growth
of low-cost transaction deposit accounts. Transaction deposit accounts are made
up of passbook savings, checking, and money market accounts. Transaction
accounts increased from $113.6 million, or 30.6%, of total deposits at December
31, 1998 to $152.4 million, or 41.2%, of total deposits at September 30, 1999.
Time deposits declined from $257.1 million at December 31, 1998 to $217.5
million at September 30, 1999. Average transaction deposits at September 30,
1999, bore a weighted average interest rate of 2.99%.
At September 30, 1999, shareholders' equity was $43.1 million, compared
to $41.9 million at December 31, 1998. Equity increased by $1.2 million due to
net income for the first nine months of 1999 of $2.7 million, partially offset
by the payment of cash dividends totaling $529,000, or $.15 per share, on the
Company's outstanding common stock, and a $1.6 million decrease in the
unrealized gains
13
<PAGE>
on securities available for sale, net of taxes. Tangible book value per share of
Monterey Bay Bancorp, Inc. common stock was $11.95 at September 30, 1999,
compared to $11.60 at December 31, 1998.
Interest Rate Sensitivity and Market Risk Analysis
Market risk is the risk of losses resulting from adverse changes in
market pricing and rates. The Company's market risk is primarily interest rate
risk associated with its lending, deposit and borrowing functions. Interest rate
risk arises when interest rates on assets change in a different time period or
in a different proportion from that of liabilities. Management actively monitors
the Company's interest rate sensitivity position with the primary objective of
prudently structuring the balance sheet so that movements of interest rates on
assets and liabilities are highly correlated and produce reasonable net interest
margin even in periods of volatile interest rates. Interest rate risk is
considered by management to be the Company's most significant market risk in
terms of potential for material impact upon the Company's financial position and
results of operations. In the normal course of business, the Company is not
exposed to other types of market risk such as risk associated with commodity
prices or foreign currencies.
Management seeks to manage its asset and liability portfolios to help
reduce any adverse impact on its net interest income caused by fluctuating
interest rates. A key objective of asset/liability management is to manage
interest rate risk associated with changing asset and liability cash flows and
market interest rate movements. Interest rate risk occurs when interest rate
sensitive assets and liabilities do not reprice simultaneously and in equal
volumes. The Company's asset/liability committee provides oversight to the
interest rate risk management process and recommends policy guidelines regarding
exposure to interest rates for approval by the Board of Directors. Adherence to
these policies is monitored on an ongoing basis, and decisions related to the
management of interest rate exposure due to changes in balance sheet structure
and/or market interest rates are made when appropriate and agreed to by this
committee.
The Company manages interest rate risk principally through emphasizing
the origination of adjustable rate loans and short or intermediate term fixed
rate loans and the matching of these assets with short and intermediate term
certificates of deposit and adjustable rate borrowings. The Company's monitoring
activities related to managing interest rate risk include both interest rate
sensitivity "gap" analysis and the use of a simulation model. While gap analysis
provides a picture of the interest rate risk embedded in the balance sheet, it
provides only a static view of interest rate sensitivity at a specific point in
time, and does not measure the potential volatility in forecasted results
relating to changes in market interest rates over time. Accordingly, the Company
combines the use of gap analysis with use of a simulation model, which provides
a dynamic assessment of interest rate sensitivity. The simulation model is
designed to enable the Company to generate a forecast of net interest income and
market value of equity given various interest rate forecasts and alternative
strategies. The model is also designed to measure the anticipated impact that
prepayment risk, basis risk, customer maturity preferences, volumes of new
business and changes in the relationship between long- and short-term interest
rates have on the performance of the Company.
Interest rate sensitivity estimated by management, as measured by the
change in the market value of equity as a percentage of the present value of
assets if interest rate levels were to increase by 2%, was negative 1.64% at
June 30, 1999 indicating that the Company is vulnerable to increases in interest
rates and advantaged if interest rates decline. The change in the market value
of equity as a percentage of the present value of assets if interest rate levels
were to increase by 2% was negative 1.92% at December 31, 1998. While progress
in reducing interest rate sensitivity has been made, management continues to
pursue strategies to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on its
market value of equity, primarily by shortening asset maturities, and
lengthening maturities of interest-bearing liabilities when possible, and by
originating and retaining variable-rate consumer, business,
14
<PAGE>
construction, and commercial real estate loans, which generally have higher
yields than permanent residential loans.
Since December 31, 1998, there has been a $1.3 million change in
unrealized loss on securities available for sale, net of taxes. The change in
the unrealized loss on securities available for sale is due to the rise in
interest rates in the later half of 1999, which in the case of fixed rate
securities has created a decline in value from the purchase price. It should be
noted that the change in valuation has not changed the cash flow characteristics
of the underlying securities.
Asset Quality
At September 30, 1999, the Company had $705,000 in nonaccrual loans and
loans past due 90 days or more compared to $1.5 million of such loans at
December 31, 1998. At September 30, 1999, impaired loans totaled $1.7 million,
compared to $3.8 million at December 31, 1998.
At September 30, 1999, the Company had real estate owned totaling
$159,300, consisting of a single one-to-four family residential property
acquired through foreclosure in 1998. This property sold on October 12, 1999 for
$166,087, resulting in a small recovery.
To measure the quality of assets, the Company has established internal
asset classification guidelines as part of its credit monitoring system for
identifying and reporting problem assets and determining provisions for
anticipated loan losses. The Company classifies assets it considers of
questionable quality using the classification categories of substandard,
doubtful, and loss. The Company's classified assets consist of foreclosed
residential properties, nonperforming assets, and assets that are performing in
accordance with their contractual terms but are adversely classified because
they exhibit one or more well-defined weaknesses. Management monitors the
Company's assets regularly, classifies any problem assets, and provides specific
or general valuation allowances when necessary and appropriate.
Total classified assets of the Company decreased to $2.9 million, or
.63% of total assets, at September 30, 1999 from $5.1 million, or 1.13% of
assets, at December 31, 1998. At September 30, 1999, the Company had $3.1
million of assets classified as substandard and no assets classified as doubtful
or loss. Substandard assets are comprised of loans with identified risk
characteristics indicating the asset maybe inadequately protected by the current
net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged. The
largest substandard loan at September 30, 1999 was a one-to-four family
residential mortgage with an outstanding principal balance of $313,126.
The majority of the Company's mortgage loans are secured by real estate
located within the state of California. The majority of such loans are secured
by real estate in Santa Cruz, Monterey, Santa Clara, and San Benito counties;
therefore, the Company's credit risk is primarily related to the economic
conditions of this region.
Capital and Regulatory Standards
In connection with the insurance of its deposits by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") and general regulatory oversight by the Office of
Thrift Supervision ("OTS"), the Bank is required to maintain minimum levels of
regulatory capital, including tangible, core and risk-based capital. At
September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998, the Bank was in compliance with all
regulatory capital requirements. OTS prompt corrective action (PCA) regulations
include five capital tiers ranging from well capitalized to critically
undercapitalized. At September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998, the Bank met the
definition of a well-capitalized institution.

The following table sets forth the Bank's capital amounts and ratios

Liquidity
The Company's primary sources of funds are customer deposits,
principal, and interest payments on loans and mortgage-backed securities, FHLB
advances and other borrowings and, to a lesser extent, proceeds from sales of
securities and loans. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans are
predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly
influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions, and competition.
The Company is required by OTS regulations to maintain an average daily
balance of liquid assets in each calendar quarter of not less than 4% of either
the amount of its liquidity base at the end of the preceding calendar quarter or
the average daily balance of its liquidity base during the preceding calendar
quarter. In addition to this minimum requirement, the Bank is required to
maintain sufficient liquidity to ensure its safe and sound operations. The
minimum liquidity requirement may be changed by the OTS to any amount within the
range of 4% to 10%, depending upon economic conditions and the savings deposit
flows of savings institutions. Monetary penalties may be imposed for failure to
meet these liquidity requirements. The Bank's average liquidity ratio for the
quarter ended September 30, 1999 was 7.5%, which exceeded the then-applicable
requirements. The Bank has never been subject to monetary penalties for failure
to meet its liquidity requirements. The Company's strategy generally is to
maintain its liquidity ratio at or near the required minimum in order to
maximize its yield on alternative investments.

Year 2000
The "Year 2000 issue" relates to the fact that many computer programs
use only two digits to represent a year, such as "98" to represent "1998," which
means that in the Year 2000 such programs could incorrectly treat the Year 2000
as the year 1900. This issue has grown in importance as the use of computers and
microchips have become more pervasive throughout the economy, and
interdependencies between systems have multiplied. The issue must be recognized
as a business problem, rather than simply a computer problem, because of the way
its effects could ripple through the economy. The Year 2000 issue could
materially and adversely affect the Company either directly or indirectly. This
could happen if any of its critical computer systems or equipment containing
embedded logic fail, if the local infrastructure (electric power, phone system,
or water system) fails, if its significant vendors are adversely impacted, or if
its borrowers or depositors are adversely impacted by their internal systems or
those of their customers or suppliers. Failure of the Company to complete
testing and renovation of its critical systems on a timely basis, could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of
operations, as could Year 2000 problems faced by others with whom the Company
does business.
Federal banking regulators have been responsible for supervision and
examination of banks and to determine whether each institution has an effective
plan for identifying, renovating, testing and implementing solutions for Year
2000 processing and coordinating Year 2000 processing capabilities with its
customers, vendors and payment system partners. Bank examiners are also required
to assess the soundness of a bank's internal controls and to identify whether
further corrective action may be necessary to assure an appropriate level of
attention to Year 2000 processing capabilities.
The Company has a written plan to mitigate the risks associated with
the impact of the Year 2000. The plan directs the Company's Year 2000 activities
under the framework of the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council
(FFIEC) five-step program. The FFIEC's five-step program includes the following
phases: awareness, assessment, renovation, validation, and implementation. The
awareness phase, which the Company has completed, discusses the Year 2000
problem and gains executive level support for the necessary resources to prepare
the Company for Year 2000 compliance. The assessment phase, which the Company
has also completed, assesses the size and complexity of the problem and details
the magnitude of the effort necessary to address the Year 2000 issues. Although
the awareness and assessment phases are completed, the Company will continue to
evaluate any new issues as they arise. In the renovation phase, which the
Company has completed, the required incremental changes to hardware and software
components are tested. In the validation stage, which the Company has also
completed, the hardware and software components are tested. The implementation
phase was completed by September 30, 1999.
The Company is utilizing both internal and external sources to
identify, correct or reprogram, and test its systems for Year 2000 compliance.
The Company has identified fifteen applications which management believes are
material to the Company's operations. Based on information received from testing
results, the Company believes 100% of such applications are Year 2000 compliant
as of September 30, 1999. The testing of the mission critical systems for core
banking was completed by May 31, 1999.
The core banking product includes software solutions for checking,
savings, time certificates of deposit, general ledger, accounts payable,
automated clearing house, individual retirement accounts, commercial, mortgage
and installment loans, proof of deposit and ancillary supporting products.
The Company is also making efforts to ensure that its customers,
particularly its significant customers, are aware of the Year 2000 problem. The
Company has sent Year 2000 correspondence to

the Bank's significant deposit and loan customers. A customer of the bank is
deemed significant if the customer possesses any of the following
characteristics:
o Total indebtedness to the bank of $750,000 or more.
o Credit risk rating of five (substandard) or higher.
o The customers business is dependent on the use of high technology
and/or the electronic exchange of information.
o The customer's business is dependent on third party providers of data
processing services or products.
o An average ledger deposit balance greater than $100,000 and more than
12 transactions during the month.
The Company has amended its credit authorization documentation to
include consideration regarding the Year 2000 problem. The Company assesses its
significant customer's Year 2000 readiness and assigns an assessment of "low",
"medium", or "high" risks. Risk evaluation of the Bank's significant customers
was substantially completed by December 31, 1998. Any depositor determined to
have a high risk is scheduled for an evaluation by the Bank every 90 days until
the customer can be assigned a low risk assessment.
Additionally, the Company has conducted employee education classes on
Year 2000 preparedness and customer education to attempt to minimize any
customer anxiety regarding Year 2000 issues. A customer and community education
plan will be implemented in the fourth quarter of 1999 to further inform the
community on the safety of money in banks.
Because of the range of possible issues and large number of variables
involved, it is impossible to quantify the total potential cost of the Year 2000
problems, or to determine the Company's worst-case scenario in the event the
Company's Year 2000 remediation efforts or the efforts of those with whom it
does business are not successful. In order to deal with the uncertainty
associated with the Year 2000 problem, the Company has developed a business
resumption contingency plan to address the possibility that efforts to mitigate
the Year 2000 risk are not successful either in whole or part. These plans
include manual and off-site processing of information for critical information
technology systems and increased cash on hand. The contingency plans, including
employee training, were tested by August 15, 1999.
As of September 30, 1999, the Company had incurred approximately
$250,000 in total cumulative Year 2000 costs, which have been expensed as
incurred. Year 2000-related costs have been funded from the continuing
operations of the Company and, as of September 30, 1999, have constituted
approximately 2% of the Company's information systems expenses for 1999. The
Company estimates that additional costs to complete Year 2000 compliance will be
approximately $75,000. This estimate includes the cost of purchasing hardware
and licenses for software programming tools, the cost of the time of internal
staff and the cost of consultants. The estimate does not include the time that
internal staff is devoting to testing programming changes. Certain information
system projects at the Company have been deferred as a result of the Company's
Year 2000 compliance efforts. However, these deferrals are not expected to have
a material effect on the Company's business.
