FIRST REPUBLIC PREFERRED CAPITAL CORPORATION

(A Majority Owned Subsidiary of First Republic Bank)



Notes to Financial Statements

June 30, 2004



Note 1. Organization and Basis of Presentation



First Republic Preferred Capital Corporation (the Company) is a Nevada corporation formed by First Republic Bank (the Bank) in
April 1999 for the purpose of raising capital for the Bank. The Companys principal business is acquiring, holding, financing and managing assets secured by real estate 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 shareholders 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. To date, the Company has issued 29,362,633 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share. The Bank owns all of the common stock, except for 9,840 shares held by certain of the Banks employees and
directors. Earnings per share data is not presented, as the Companys common stock is not publicly traded.



These interim statements are intended to be read in conjunction with the financial statements presented in First Republic Preferred Capital
Corporations Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2003. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire year.



The results and 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 the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K under the caption Risk Factors.



Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies



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 expected lives of the loans using the interest method. Unaccreted or unamortized discounts or premiums on loans sold or paid in full are recognized in the 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 values 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 from the
Company, the difference would be recorded as a capital contribution by the Bank or a capital distribution to the Bank and would not be an adjustment to the basis of the loans.



Mortgage Loans consisted entirely of single family mortgages through the first quarter of 2003. Beginning in the second
quarter of 2003, the Company acquired multifamily mortgages with the proceeds of the Series D preferred stock offering. At June 30, 2004, Mortgage Loans totaled $324.1 million, of which $288.7 million were single family mortgages and $35.4 million
were multifamily mortgages. At December 31, 2003, Mortgage Loans totaled $322.5 million, of which $296.1 million were single family mortgages and $26.4 million were multifamily mortgages.



Interest income from loans is recognized in the month earned and is net of service fees paid to the Bank. Interest income is
not recorded on loans when they become more than 90 days delinquent, except for single family loans that are well secured and in the process of collection, or at such earlier time as management determined that the collectibility of 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 loans 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. There were no nonaccrual or impaired loans as of June 30, 2004 or December 31, 2003. 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



In 2002, the Company established an allowance for loan losses of $200,000.
In 2003, the Company increased its allowance for loan losses by $281,000, which was the amount of the Banks allowance for loan losses associated with the loans the Company acquired using the proceeds from the issuance of the Series D Preferred
Shares. 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
determines 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 minus estimated costs to sell. Costs related to holding real
estate are recorded 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 at the Bank. As a REIT making sufficient dividend distributions, the Company did not pay income taxes for the six
months ended June 30, 2004 or 2003.



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 and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the
allowance for losses on loans and the rate at which purchased discounts or premiums are accreted or amortized and recognized in interest income.



Note 3. Related Party Transactions



Since inception in April 1999, the Company has acquired all of its loans from the Bank. The aggregate cost of these loans acquired by the Company during
the second quarter was approximately $50 million in 2004 and $159 million in 2003, including net premiums of $34,000 and $507,000, respectively. The aggregate cost of such loans acquired during the first six months was approximately $64 million in
2004 and $204 million in 2003, including net premiums of $74,000 and $647,000, respectively. All purchases were at a price equal to the Banks carrying amount, which approximated the fair value of the 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. 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 $192,000 and $110,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, and $384,000 and $214,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003. 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 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. In 2003, the Board of
Directors of the Company, including a majority of our independent directors, approved an annual fee of $75,000, payable in equal quarterly installments. The Company had $19,000 payable to the Bank for advisory fees at June 30, 2004 and at December
31, 2003, respectively.



During 2001, the Bank purchased 13,500
shares of the Companys outstanding Series A Preferred Shares, with a liquidation preference value of $13.5 million. During 2002, the Bank purchased 1,500 shares of outstanding Series A Preferred Shares, with a liquidation preference value of
$1.5 million. During 2003, the Bank purchased 10,260 shares of outstanding Series A Preferred Shares with a liquidation preference value of $10.3 million, and during the first six months of 2004, the Bank purchased 150 shares of outstanding Series A
Preferred Shares with a liquidation preference value of $150,000. Accordingly, at June 30, 2004, the Bank owned 25,410 shares of the Companys Series A Preferred Shares, with a liquidation preference value of $25.4 million.



Note 4. Preferred Stock



As of June 30, 2004, the Company was authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. The Company has issued each

$60 million; all underwriting fees and other issuance costs were contributed by the Bank. The Series D Preferred Shares are not redeemable prior to June 27, 2008. Holders of the Series D Preferred Shares are entitled to receive, if authorized and

and December 30 of each year.



Upon the occurrence of an
adverse change in relevant tax laws, the Company will have the right to redeem the Preferred Shares, in whole (but not in part). The liquidation preference for both the Series A Preferred Shares and the Series C Preferred Shares is $1,000 per share
plus the semiannual dividend thereon accrued through the date of redemption for the dividend period in which the redemption occurs. The liquidation preference for each of the Series B Preferred Shares and the Series D Preferred Share is $25 per

The exchange rate for both the Series A Preferred Shares and the Series C Preferred Shares is 1:1. The exchange rate for each of the Series B Preferred Shares and Series D Preferred Shares is 1:1/40. Except under certain limited circumstances, the
holders of the Preferred Shares have no voting rights.



Note 5. Common Stock



As of June 30, 2004, the Company was authorized to issue
50,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.01 per share. At June 30, 2004, there were 29,362,633 shares outstanding. The Company initially issued 10,000,000 shares to the Bank. In June 2003, January 2002, and June 2001, the Company
issued 10,658,330, 7,460,831 and 1,243,472 shares of common stock, respectively, and used the proceeds to acquire Mortgage Assets from the Bank.



Holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends if and when authorized and declared by the Board of Directors, out of funds legally available
therefore after all preferred dividends have been paid for the full year. As of June 30, 2004, no common stock dividends have been declared for the year 2004.



Note 6. Dividends on Preferred Stock and Common Stock



Dividends on the Preferred Shares, are payable if, when and as authorized 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 capital gains) to stockholders, and, generally,
the Company cannot pay dividends on the common stock for periods in which less than full dividends are paid on each series of Preferred Shares.



For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2004, the Company paid quarterly dividends of $932,000 and $1,864,000 to holders of the Series B
Preferred Shares, and $1,087,000 and $2,175,000 to the holders of the Series D Preferred Shares, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, the Company paid semiannual dividends of $2,888,000 and $199,000 to the holders of the Series A
and Series C Preferred Shares, respectively.



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 has not declared dividends to the holders of its common stock for the periods from January 1 to June 30 of 2004 or 2003.

deterioration in credit quality and an increase in the provision for possible loan losses; changes in the regulatory environment; changes in business conditions, particularly in San Francisco and Los Angeles counties 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 First Republic Preferred Capital Corporations filings with the SEC or in materials incorporated therein by

Results of Operations



Overview



Net income before preferred stock dividends was $3,960,000 for the second quarter of 2004, compared with $2,697,000 for the second quarter of 2003. For
the first six months, net income before preferred stock dividends was $7,958,000 in 2004, compared with $5,479,000 in 2003. The increase was primarily due to an increase in average interest-earning assets, resulting in higher total interest income.
However, the drop in interest rates during the past year resulted in lower average yields compared with a year ago. The ratio of earnings to fixed charges was 1.11x and 1.12x for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, compared with 1.07x and
1.10x for the same periods in 2003. Dividend payments were 100% of fixed charges.

The Bank retains an
annual servicing fee of 25 basis points on the gross average outstanding principal balance of the Companys loan portfolio that the Bank services, which reduces the interest income that the Company receives. For the three months ended June 30,
2004 and 2003, loan servicing fees were $192,000 and $110,000, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, loan servicing fees were $384,000 and $214,000, respectively. The increases in loan servicing fees are consistent with the
increases in average loan balances.



The average yield on
interest-earning assets declined to 4.88% for the second quarter of 2004, compared with 5.11% for the second quarter of 2003. Loan portfolio yields were 5.00% and 5.44%, respectively. The declines in yields reflect the decline in the overall rate
environment over the last several years.



The average balance
of short-term investments dropped to $9.5 million for the second quarter of 2004 from $16.5 million for the second quarter of 2003. The average yield on the interest-bearing money market account dropped to 0.93% for the second quarter of 2004 from
1.10% for the second quarter of 2003 due to lower interest rates.



Operating
Expense



The Company incurs advisory fee expenses payable
to the Bank. The Company has an advisory agreement with the Bank for services that the Bank renders on its behalf for which it is paid $75,000 per annum. Advisory fees were $19,000 for each quarter ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 and $38,000 for each
six-month period ended June 30, 2004 and 2003.



General and
administrative expenses were primarily related to exchange listings and other shareholder costs, audit fees and rating agency fees. Collectively, these fees and other operating expenses were $73,000 and $49,000 for the three months ended June 30,
2004 and 2003, respectively, and $126,000 and $103,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003.

Financial Condition



Interest-bearing Deposits with the Bank



At June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, interest-bearing deposits 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 loan portfolio.



Mortgage Loans



The loan portfolio at June 30,
2004 and December 31, 2003 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.



A loan is placed on nonaccrual status when any installment of principal or
interest is over 90 days past due, except for single family loans that are 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.



As of June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, there were no
nonaccrual loans, impaired loans, or loans that were troubled debt restructurings. In addition, at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, there were no accruing loans that were contractually past due more than 90 days.

During the second
quarter of 2003, the Company recorded a transfer to the allowance for loan losses of $281,000, which was the amount of the Banks allowance for loan losses associated with the loans that the Company acquired upon the issuance of the Series D
Preferred Shares. As of June 30, 2004, the Companys allowance for loan losses was 0.15% of total loans.



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 loan portfolio.

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 will continue 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 will provide sufficient funds for operating requirements and dividends payments in accordance with the requirements to be taxed as a REIT for the foreseeable future.



ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK



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 facilitate making dividend payments, the Company
has maintained an average earning asset balance of approximately two times the liquidation preference of its outstanding preferred shares. The Companys current earnings to fixed charges ratio is 1.11x for the second quarter of 2004, compared
with 1.12x for the first quarter of 2004 and 1.10x for the year 2003.



Only recently have rates begun to move up from 40-year historic lows. However, higher-yielding loans continued to pay off at a high rate during the quarter, resulting in a lower average yield on the loan portfolio. The proceeds from loan
payoffs were reinvested in lower-yielding Mortgage Loans. The weighted average yield on average interest-earning assets for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 was 4.88%, down 23 basis points, compared with 5.11% for the second quarter of 2003, and
5.01% for all of 2003.



At June 30, 2004, 39% of the Mortgage
Loans were adjustable rate loans, 43% were intermediate fixed rate loans, and 18% were fixed rate loans. The weighted average coupon rate for each loan type was 4.45%, 5.43% and 5.80%, respectively, and the weighted average remaining maturity was
23.9 years. At June 30, 2003, 28% were adjustable rate loans, 56% were intermediate fixed rate loans, and 16% were fixed rate loans. The weighted average coupon rate for each loan type was 4.72%, 5.84% and 6.42%, respectively, and the weighted
average remaining maturity was 24.8 years.



For adjustable rate
Mortgage Loans, 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 drop in the weighted average coupon rate of adjustable
rate loans slowed to 27 basis points from 4.72% at June 30, 2003 to 4.45% at June 30, 2004. The decline in adjustable rate loan yields was mitigated by a significant volume of adjustable rate loans indexed to the 11thDistrict Cost of Funds Index (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 June 30, 2004, adjustable rate loans indexed to COFI were 68% of total adjustable rate mortgages (ARM), or 26% of total Mortgage Loans.

##### Table of Contents

For intermediate fixed and fixed rate loans, the gross principal outstanding at June 30, 2004 was $201.6
million, or 62% of total loans. The weighted average coupon rate for intermediate fixed rate loans declined 41 basis points to 5.43% at June 30, 2004 from 5.84% at June 30, 2003. The weighted average coupon rate for fixed rate loans declined 62
basis points to 5.80% at June 30, 2004 from 6.42% at June 30, 2003. Repayments of intermediate fixed and fixed rate loans during the past year were a significant portion of the total repayment proceeds. The high level of repayments was the result of
low interest rates. The Company reinvested these repayment proceeds in lower-yielding Mortgage Loans.
