Real estate loans
 
    
    Commercial real estate. Commercial real estate loan terms generally will be limited
to five years or less, although payments may be structured on a longer amortization
basis. Interest rates may be fixed or adjustable. The Bank generally will require
personal guarantees from the principal owners of the property supported by a review by
Bank management of the principal owners personal financial statements. Risks
associated with commercial real estate loans include fluctuations in the value of real
estate, new job creation trends, tenant vacancy rates and the quality of the borrowers
management. The Bank will limit its risk by analyzing borrowers cash flow and
collateral value on an ongoing basis.
    
    Construction and development loans. Bank of Birmingham will consider making
owner-occupied construction loans with a pre-approved take-out loan. The Bank will
also consider construction and development loans on a pre-sold basis. If the borrower
has entered into an agreement to sell the property prior to beginning construction,
then the loan is considered to be on a pre-sold basis. If the borrower has not entered
into an agreement to sell the property prior to beginning construction, then the loan
is considered to be on a speculative basis. Construction and development loans are
generally made with a term of six to twelve months and interest is paid quarterly. The
ratio of the loan principal to the value of the collateral as established by
independent appraisal typically will not exceed industry standards. Speculative loans
will be based on the borrowers financial strength and cash flow position. Loan
proceeds will be disbursed based on the percentage of completion and only after the
project has been inspected by an experienced construction lender or third-party
inspector. Risks associated with construction loans include fluctuations in the value
of real estate and new job creation trends.
    
    Residential real estate. The Banks residential real estate loans will consist of
residential second mortgage loans, residential construction loans and traditional
mortgage lending for one-to-four family residences. The Bank expects that any
long-term fixed rate mortgages will be underwritten for resale to the secondary market.
It will offer primarily adjustable rate mortgages. The majority of fixed rate loans
will be sold in the secondary mortgage market. All loans will be made in accordance
with our appraisal policy with the ratio of the loan principal to the value of
collateral as established by independent appraisal not exceeding 80%, unless the
borrower has private mortgage insurance.
