mortgages and other obligations secured by real property, as well as certain other qualifying real estate investment trust (REIT) assets (collectively, the Mortgage Assets). The Mortgage Assets presently held by the Company
are loans secured by single family and multifamily real estate properties (Mortgage Loans) that were acquired from the Bank. The Company expects that all, or substantially all, of its Mortgage Assets will continue to be Mortgage Loans
acquired from the Bank. The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT and intends to make distributions to its stockholders such that the Company is relieved of substantially all income taxes relating to ordinary income under applicable tax
regulations. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes is included in the accompanying financial statements.

As of March 31, 2006,
the Company has issued 29,353,193 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share. The Bank owns all of the common stock, except for 400 shares held by certain of the Banks former employees. Earnings per share data is not presented, as the
Companys common stock is not publicly traded.

These interim financial statements are intended to be read in conjunction with the
Companys 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K, Financial Statements and Notes thereto. Interim results should not be considered indicative of results to be expected for the full year.

The results of operations of the Company and the Bank are subject to various risks, including business, economic, legal and regulatory conditions and
factors. Additional information is included in Item 1A, Risk Factors, in the Companys 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K and in filings made subsequent to the filing of the 2005 Form 10-K.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of
Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or
conditions. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses.

Mortgage Loans

Mortgage Loans are carried at the principal amount outstanding, net of purchase
discounts and premiums. Discounts or premiums on Mortgage Loans are accreted or amortized as yield adjustments over the contractual lives of the loans using methods that approximate the interest method. The unaccreted discount or unamortized premium
on a loan sold or paid in full is recognized in income at the time of sale or payoff.

The Company has purchased Mortgage Loans from the
Bank at the Banks carrying amount, which generally has approximated the fair value of the loans purchased. If a significant difference were to exist between the Banks carrying amount and the fair value of loans at the date of purchase,
the Company would record the difference as a capital contribution by the Bank or a capital distribution to the Bank and would not adjust the basis of the loans.

Interest income from loans is recognized in the month earned and is net of servicing fees paid to the Bank. The Company places a loan on nonaccrual status, and interest income is not recorded on the loan, when the
loan becomes more than 90 days delinquent, except for a single family loan that is well secured and in the process of collection, or at such earlier times as management determines that the ultimate collection of all contractually due principal or

interest is unlikely. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, interest income may be recorded when cash is received if the Companys recorded
investment in such loan is deemed collectible. When, in managements judgment, the borrowers ability to make periodic interest and principal payments resumes, the loan is returned to accrual status. The Company classifies a loan as
impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The Company maintains an
allowance for loan losses that can be reasonably anticipated based upon specific conditions at the time. The Company considers a number of factors, including the Companys and the Banks past loss experience, the Banks underwriting
policies, the amount of past due and nonperforming loans, legal requirements, recommendations or requirements of regulatory authorities, current economic conditions and other factors. If the Company were to determine that an additional provision is
required, the Company would provide for loan losses by charging current income.

Other Real Estate Owned

Real estate acquired through foreclosure is recorded at the lower of cost or fair value, less estimated costs to sell such real estate. The Company
records costs related to holding real estate as expenses when incurred. The Company has not owned any real estate since inception.

Statement of Cash
Flows

For the purpose of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and short-term investments on deposit
with the Bank. As a REIT making sufficient dividend distributions, the Company paid no income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2006 or for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005.

Note 3. Related Party Transactions

Since inception,
the Company has acquired all of its Mortgage Loans from the Bank. The aggregate cost of these loans acquired by the Company during the first quarter was approximately $28.2 million in 2006 and $11.5 million in 2005, including net premiums of
$130,000 and $53,000, respectively. All purchases were at a price equal to the Banks carrying value of the loans, which approximated the fair value of the Mortgage Loans.

The Company has a loan purchase and servicing agreement with the Bank pursuant to which the Bank performs, among other things, servicing of loans held by
the Company in accordance with normal industry practice. In its capacity as servicer, the Bank receives Mortgage Loan payments on behalf of the Company and holds the payments in custodial accounts at the Bank. The loan purchase and servicing
agreement is renewable on an annual basis. The Bank charges an annual servicing fee of 0.25% of the outstanding principal balances of the Mortgage Loans that the Bank services. The Company records the servicing fees as a reduction of interest
income. Loan servicing fees were $195,000 for the first quarter of 2006 and $196,000 for the same quarter in 2005.

The Company entered
into an advisory agreement with the Bank under which the Bank administers the day-to-day operations of the Company. The Bank is responsible for: (i) monitoring the credit quality of the Mortgage Assets held by the Company; (ii) advising
the Company with respect to the reinvestment of income from, and principal payments on, the Mortgage Assets, and with respect to the acquisition, management, financing and disposition of the Mortgage Assets; and (iii) monitoring the
Companys compliance with the requirements necessary to qualify as a REIT.

The advisory agreement is renewable on an annual basis.
For 2006, the advisory fees were $100,000 per annum, payable in equal quarterly installments, consistent with the amount for 2005. The Company had advisory fees payable to the Bank of $25,000 at March 31, 2006 and at December 31, 2005.

Dividends on Preferred Shares are payable if, when and as authorized and declared by the
Companys board of directors. If the board of directors does not authorize a dividend on any of the Preferred Shares for any respective dividend period, holders of each class of Preferred Shares will not be entitled to be paid that dividend
later or to recover any unpaid dividend whether or not funds are, or subsequently become, available. The board of directors, in its business judgment, may determine that it would be in the best interest of the Company to pay less than the full
amount of the stated dividend on each series of Preferred Shares for any dividend period. However, to remain qualified as a REIT, the Company must distribute annually at least 90% of its REIT taxable income (excluding deductions for any
dividends paid and any net capital gains) to stockholders, and, generally, the Company cannot pay dividends on common stock for periods in which less than full dividends are paid on each series of Preferred Shares.

The Company expects to pay the holders of common stock an amount of dividends that when aggregated with the dividends paid to holders of the Preferred
Shares is not less than 90% of the Companys REIT taxable income (excluding deductions for any dividends paid and any net capital gains) in order to remain qualified as a REIT. The Company did not declare dividends on its common
stock during the first quarter of 2006 or 2005.

Note 7. Concentration of Credit Risk

At March 31, 2006, the Company held Mortgage Loans secured by real estate properties located primarily in California (79% in total). Future economic,
political or other developments in California could adversely affect the value of the Mortgage Loans. See Financial Condition - Significant Concentration of Credit Risk under Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations.

|------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Introduction

This discussion summarizes the significant factors affecting the financial condition as
of March 31, 2006 and results of operations of the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2006. This discussion is provided to increase the understanding of, and should be read in conjunction with, the unaudited interim financial
statements, accompanying notes and tables included in this quarterly report.

Information Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains 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. These statements reflect managements current views and assumptions and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual
results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements
regarding the following:



| |  |  | business strategy;
| | - |  | ------------------



| |  |  | estimates regarding capital requirements and the need for additional financing; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | plans, objectives, expectations and intentions contained in this report that are not historical facts.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Forward-looking statements often include words such as may, will, would, should, could,
expect, anticipate, believe, estimate, project, predict, intend, potential, continue, or similar expressions. Statements that contain these
words should be read carefully because they discuss future expectations, contain projections of future results of operation or of financial condition or state other forward-looking information. There may be events in the future, however, that cannot
be accurately predicted or controlled and that may cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations described in the forward-looking statements. The reader is cautioned that all forward-looking statements involve risks and
uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from those discussed as a result of various factors, including, but not limited to, competitive pressure in the mortgage lending industry; changes in the interest rate environment that reduce
margins; general economic conditions, either nationally or regionally, that are less favorable than expected, resulting in, among other things, a deterioration in credit quality and an increase in the provision for loan losses; changes in the
regulatory environment; changes in business conditions, particularly in San Francisco and Los Angeles counties and the New York area and in the home mortgage lending industry; and changes in the securities markets. Other risks, uncertainties and
factors are discussed elsewhere in this report, in other Company filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) (including in Item 1A, Risk Factors, in the Companys 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K) and
in materials incorporated therein by reference.

Throughout this document, Company, we, our or
us refers to First Republic Preferred Capital Corporation and Bank refers to First Republic Bank.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of the Companys financial condition and results of operation are based upon the Companys
financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the
reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to allowance for loan losses, credit
risks, estimated loan lives, interest rate risk, investments, and contingencies and litigation. Estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of
which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of the Companys assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or
conditions.

##### Table of Contents

The Company considers accounting for allowance for loan losses to be a critical accounting policy because
it is a complex process involving difficult and subjective judgments, assumptions and estimates. The allowance for loan losses is an estimate that can change under different assumptions and conditions. The Company estimates credit losses resulting
from the inability of borrowers to make required payments. If the financial condition of borrowers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, or the value of collateral securing Mortgage Loans were to decline,
an increase in the allowance may be required by charging current income. A significant decline in the credit quality of the Companys loan portfolio could have a material adverse affect on the Companys financial condition and results of
operations.

Results of Operations

Overview

Net income was $4,332,000 for the first quarter of 2006, compared with $3,947,000 for the first quarter of 2005. The increase was
primarily due to an increase in interest income resulting from higher interest rates and operating expenses remaining relatively stable. The ratio of earnings to fixed charges for the first quarter was 1.22x in 2006 and 1.11x in 2005. Dividend
payments were 100% of fixed charges.

Total Interest Income

Total interest income increased in the first quarter of 2006 compared with the same period in 2005 due to higher loan and short-term investment yields. The following table presents the average balances and yields on
the Companys interest-earning assets for the periods indicated:

Interest income on Mortgage Loans increased 8% in the first quarter of 2006 compared with the same
period in 2005. The increase was due to a 42 basis point increase in the average yield to 5.32% from 4.90%. Loan yields began a modest increase in the second half of 2004 as the Federal Reserve Bank raised the federal funds rate fifteen times since
June 2004 to 4.75% in March 2006. The weighted average coupon rate of the total loan portfolio was 5.50% at March 31, 2006, compared with 5.30% at December 31, 2005 and 5.04% at March 31, 2005. In addition to interest rate increases,
the yield on Mortgage Loans increased due to a change in the portfolio mix from intermediate fixed and fixed rate loans to adjustable rate mortgage loans (ARMs). At March 31, 2006, the balance of ARMs grew to 64% of Mortgage Loans,
up from 48% at March 31, 2005, and the weighted average coupon rate on ARMs increased more rapidly than the rate on intermediate fixed or fixed rate loans due to the rise in short-term rates. See Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures
about Market Risks.

The Bank retains an annual servicing fee of 25 basis points on the gross average outstanding principal balance
of the Mortgage Loans that the Bank services, which reduces the interest income that the Company receives. Loan servicing fees were $195,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 and $196,000 for the same period in 2005.

Interest income on short-term investments increased in the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared with the same period in 2005, due to higher
rates and an increase in the average investment balance. The average yield on the Companys interest-bearing money market account continued to rise to 3.10% in the first quarter of 2006 as interest rates began to rise mid-2004, compared with
1.91% for the first quarter of 2005.

Operating Expense

The Company incurs advisory fee expenses payable to the Bank. The Company has entered into an advisory agreement with the Bank for services that the Bank renders on the Companys behalf. For 2006, advisory fees
were

$100,000 per annum, consistent with the amount for 2005. For the first quarter, advisory fees were $25,000 in 2006 and in 2005.

General and administrative expenses primarily consisted of audit fees, rating agency fees, exchange listing fees and other stockholder costs. General and
administrative expenses decreased to $44,000 in 2006 from $61,000. The first quarter of 2006 reflected lower audit accrual fees and no rating agency fee charges.

Financial Condition

Short-term Investments on Deposit with the Bank

At March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, short-term investments on deposit consisted entirely of a money market account held at the Bank.
Generally, the balance in this account reflects principal and interest received on the Mortgage Loans.

Mortgage Loans

The loan portfolio at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005 consisted of both single family and multifamily mortgage loans acquired from the
Bank. The Company anticipates that in the future it will continue to acquire all of its loans from the Bank.

The Company has purchased
from the Bank loans with a period of interest only payments. Underwriting standards for all loans have required a high level of borrower net worth, substantial post-loan liquidity, excellent FICO scores and significant down payments. At
March 31, 2006, approximately $169.1 million of loans, or 56% of the Companys single family loan portfolio, allowed interest only payments for varying periods. These interest only loans had an average LTV ratio of approximately 55%, based
on appraised value at the time of origination. None of the Companys interest only home loans had an LTV ratio at origination of more than 80%.

A loan is placed on nonaccrual status when any installment of principal or interest is over 90 days past due, except for any single family loan that is well secured and in the process of collection or when the Company
determines that the ultimate collection of all contractually due principal or interest is unlikely. The Company classifies a loan as impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect
all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement.

As of March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, there were
no nonaccrual loans, impaired loans or loans that were troubled debt restructurings. In addition, at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, there were no accruing loans that were contractually past due more than 90 days.

The following table presents information with respect to the Companys allowance for loan losses:

Significant Concentration of Credit Risk

Concentration of credit risk generally arises with respect to the loan portfolio when a number of borrowers engage in similar business activities or
activities in the same geographical region. Concentration of credit risk indicates the relative sensitivity of the Companys performance to both positive and negative developments affecting a particular industry. The balance sheet exposure to
geographic concentrations directly affects the credit risk of the loans within the Companys loan portfolio.

The Companys loans
are concentrated in California and adverse conditions there could adversely affect its operations. The following table presents an analysis of Mortgage Loans at March 31, 2006 by major geographic location:

Properties underlying Mortgage Loans were concentrated primarily in California. At March 31,
2006, approximately 79% of Mortgage Loans were secured by properties located in California, and the weighted average loan to value ratio on the Mortgage Loans was approximately 53%, based upon the appraised values of the properties at the time the
loans were originated.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Companys principal liquidity needs are to pay dividends and to fund the acquisition of additional Mortgage Assets as borrowers repay Mortgage Loans. The Company intends to fund the acquisition of additional
Mortgage Loans with the proceeds of principal repayments on its current portfolio of Mortgage Loans. Proceeds from interest payments will be reinvested until used for the payment of operating expenses and dividends. The Company does not anticipate
that it will have any other material capital expenditures. The cash generated from interest and principal payments on Mortgage Assets is expected to provide sufficient funds for operating requirements and dividend payments in accordance with the
requirements to be taxed as a REIT for the foreseeable future.

Interest Rate Risk Management

The Company services fixed-rate dividend obligations to preferred stockholders and operating
expenses by the collection of interest income from its Mortgage Loans. To meet dividend payments, the Company maintains an average interest-earning asset balance of approximately two times the liquidation preference of its outstanding preferred
shares. The Companys earnings to fixed charges ratio was 1.22x for the first quarter of 2006, compared with 1.11x for the first quarter of 2005 and 1.13x for the year 2005.

Since mid-2004, interest rates have moved up from 40-year historical lows. The average yield on average interest-earning assets was 5.28% for the first
quarter of 2006, compared with 5.08% for the prior quarter and 4.86% for the first quarter of 2005.

At March 31, 2006, 64% of the
Mortgage Loans were ARMs, 24% were intermediate fixed rate loans and 12% were fixed rate loans. The weighted average coupon rate for each interest rate type at March 31, 2006 was 5.57%, 5.22% and 5.66%, respectively, and the weighted average
remaining maturity was 23.6 years. In comparison, at March 31, 2005, 48% were ARMs, 37% were intermediate fixed rate loans and 15% were fixed rate loans. The weighted average coupon rate for each interest rate type at March 31, 2005 was
4.58%, 5.39% and 5.70%, respectively, and the weighted average remaining maturity was also 23.6 years.

##### Table of Contents

For ARMs, the timing of changes in average yields depends on the underlying interest rate index, the
timing of changes in the index, and the frequency of adjustments to the loan rate. The weighted average coupon rate for ARMs was 5.57% at March 31, 2006, up 31 basis points from 5.26% at December 31, 2005 and up 99 basis points from 4.58%
at March 31, 2005 due to the rise in short-term rates. The increase in ARM loan yields was mitigated by the increase in ARM loans indexed to COFI. COFI is a lagging index that tends to respond more slowly to changes in the general interest rate
environment than a market rate index. At March 31, 2006, ARM loans indexed to COFI were 82% of total adjustable rate loans, and 52% of Mortgage Loans, compared with 74% of total adjustable rate loans at March 31, 2005, and 36% of Mortgage
Loans.

For intermediate fixed and fixed rate loans, the gross principal outstanding at March 31, 2006 was $120.0 million, or 36% of
total loans, down from $164.9 million at March 31, 2005, or 52% of Mortgage loans. The weighted average coupon rate for intermediate fixed rate loans declined 17 basis points to 5.22% at March 31, 2006 from 5.39% at March 31, 2005.
The weighted average coupon rate for fixed rate loans declined 4 basis points to 5.66% at March 31, 2006 from 5.70% at March 31, 2005. A portion of the repayments of intermediate fixed and fixed rate loans were reinvested in ARMs.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and

officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Reporting
