PACIFIC MERCANTILE BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. Nature of Business

Pacific Mercantile Bancorp (PMBC) is a bank holding company which, through its wholly
owned subsidiary, Pacific Mercantile Bank (the Bank) is engaged in the commercial banking business in Southern California. PMBC is registered as a one bank holding company under the United States Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as
amended. The Bank is chartered by the California Department of Financial Institutions (the DFI) and is a member of and subject to regulation by the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco (FRB). In addition, the deposit
accounts of the Banks customers are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to the maximum amount allowed by law. PMBC and the Bank, together, shall sometimes be referred to in this report as the
Company or as we, us or our.

Substantially all of our operations are conducted and
substantially all our assets are owned by the Bank, which accounts for substantially all of our consolidated revenues and expenses, and earnings. The Bank provides a full range of banking services to small and medium-size businesses, professionals
and the general public in Orange, Los Angeles, San Bernardino and San Diego Counties of California and is subject to competition from other financial institutions and from financial services organizations conducting operations in those same markets.

During 2002, we organized three business trusts, under the names Pacific Mercantile Capital Trust I, PMB Capital Trust I, and PMB
Statutory Trust III, respectively, to facilitate our issuance of $5.155 million, $5.155 million and $7.217 million, respectively, principal amount of junior subordinated debentures, all with maturity dates in 2032. In October 2004, we organized PMB
Capital Trust III to facilitate our issuance of an additional $10 million principal amount of junior subordinated debentures, with a maturity date in 2034. In accordance with applicable accounting standards, the financial statements of these trusts
are not included in the Companys consolidated financial statements. See Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies  Principles of Consolidation below.

In July 2007, we redeemed the $5.155 million principal amount of junior subordinated debentures issued in conjunction with the organization of Pacific
Mercantile Capital Trust I and in August 2007, we redeemed the $5.155 million principal amount of junior subordinated debentures issued in conjunction with the organization of PMB Capital Trust I. Those trusts were dissolved as a result of those
redemptions.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10Q and, therefore, do not include all footnotes that would be required for a full
presentation of financial position, results of operations, changes in cash flows and comprehensive income (loss) in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). However, these interim financial
statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) which, in the opinion of our management, are necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position as of the end of and our results of operations for
the interim periods presented.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with prior
periods, and should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2007, and the notes thereto, included in our Annual Report on Form 10K for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2007, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Our consolidated
financial position at September 30, 2008, and the consolidated results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008, are not necessarily indicative of what our financial position will be as of the end of, or
of the results of our operations that may be expected for any other interim period during or for, the full year ending December 31, 2008.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Cont.-)

2. Significant Accounting Policies (Cont.-)



Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make certain estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain of our assets, liabilities, and contingencies at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of our revenues and expenses during the reporting period. For the fiscal periods
covered by this Report, those estimates related primarily to our determinations of the allowance for loan losses, the fair value of securities available for sale, and the valuation of deferred tax assets. If circumstances or financial trends on
which those estimates were based were to change in the future or there were to occur any currently unanticipated events affecting the amounts of those estimates, our future financial position or results of operation could differ, possibly
materially, from those expected at the current time.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, include the accounts of PMBC and its
wholly owned subsidiary, Pacific Mercantile Bank.

Nonperforming Loans and Other Assets

At September 30, 2008, loans that were 90 days past due totaled $15.8 million of which $2.0 million continued to accrue interest, and loans
classified as nonaccrual and impaired totaled $20.3 million. By comparison, at December 31, 2007, $7.7 million of loans were 90 days past due and $8.0 million of loans were classified as nonaccrual and impaired, none of which were still
accruing interest. At September 30, 2008, troubled debt restructurings consisted of two loans, in an aggregate principal amount of $3.3 million, which continue to accrue interest and three loans in an aggregate principal amount of $824,000 that
were included in the nonaccrual balances at September 30, 2008. At December 31, 2007 troubled debt restructurings still accruing interest totaled $300,000.

Earnings Per Share (EPS)

Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that would occur if stock options or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into shares of common stock which
would share in our earnings. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008, stock options to purchase 1,006,644 and 530,943 shares, respectively, were not considered in computing diluted earnings per common share because they
were antidilutive.

Comprehensive Income

Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Certain changes in assets and
liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale and unrealized actuarial gains and losses on the supplemental executive compensation plan, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the balance
sheet, net of income taxes, and such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income.

Recent Accounting
Pronouncements

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, (SFAS 157). SFAS 157
defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies whenever other standards require (or permit) assets or
liabilities to be measured at fair value, and therefore, does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. SFAS 157 clarifies that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing an asset or
liability and establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and lowest priority to unobservable data.
SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company adopted SFAS 157 as of January 1, 2008 and the adoption did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements or results of operations
of the Company.

On February 15, 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Financial Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115, (SFAS 159). SFAS 159 provides an alternative measurement treatment for certain financial assets and financial liabilities, under an instrument-by-instrument
election, that permits fair value to be used for both initial and subsequent measurement, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. SFAS 159 is effective beginning January 1, 2008 and we adopted SFAS 159 on January 1, 2008. The
Company chose not to elect the option to measure the eligible financial assets and liabilities at fair value.

In December 2007, the SEC
issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110 (SAB No. 110), Certain Assumptions Used in Valuation Methods, which extends the use of the simplified method, under certain circumstances, in developing an estimate of
expected term of plain vanilla share options in accordance with SFAS No. 123R. Prior to SAB No. 110, SAB No. 107 stated that the simplified method was only available for grants made up to December 31, 2007. The
Company used the simplified method in developing an estimate of expected term of stock options. Beginning January 1, 2008 the Company began to use historical data based on awards vesting period and the award recipients exercise
history to estimate the expected life of the share options grants.

In May 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard No. 162, or SFAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles
used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. SFAS No. 162 will become effective 60 days following the SECs approval of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The Company does not expect the adoption of this statement to
have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In October, 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position 157-3, Determining
the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is not Active, (FSP 157-3). FSP 157-3 clarifies the application of SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurements, in a market that is not active. This FSP is effective upon
issuance, including prior periods for which financial statements have not been issued. The Company will use existing techniques when valuing our level 3 assets, which we feel are appropriate and accurately reflect fair value as of the financial
statement date.

Commitments and Contingencies

To meet the financing needs of our customers in the normal course of business, we are a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and
standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated financial statements. At September 30, 2008, loan commitments and letters
of credit totaled $213 million and $7 million, respectively. The contractual amount of a credit-related financial instrument such as a commitment to extend credit, a credit-card arrangement or a letter of credit represents the amounts of potential
accounting loss should the commitment be fully drawn upon, the customer default, and the value of any existing collateral securing the customers payment obligation become worthless.

As a result, we use the same credit policies in making commitments to extend credit and conditional obligations as we do for on-balance sheet
instruments. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates; however, since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. We evaluate
each customers creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis, using the same credit underwriting standards that are employed in making commercial loans. The amount of collateral obtained, if any, upon an extension of credit is based on
managements credit evaluation of the customer. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, real estate and income-producing commercial properties.

In the ordinary course of business, we are subject to legal actions normally associated with financial institutions. At September 30, 2008, we were
not a party to any pending legal action that is expected to be material to our consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

Stock-Based Employee Compensation Plans

Effective March 2, 1999, our Board of Directors adopted, and in January 2000 our
shareholders approved, the 1999 Stock Option Plan (the 1999 Plan). That Plan authorizes the granting of options to directors, officers and other key employees that entitle them to purchase shares of common stock of the Company at a price
per share equal to or above the fair market value of the Companys shares on the respective grant dates of the awards. Options may vest immediately or over various periods, generally ranging up to five years, as determined by the Compensation
Committee of our Board of Directors at the time it approves the grant of options under the 1999 Plan. Options may be granted for terms of up to 10 years, but will terminate sooner upon or shortly after a termination of service occurring prior to the
expiration of the term of the option. A total of 1,248,230 shares were authorized for issuance under the 1999 Plan (which number has been adjusted for stock splits effectuated subsequent to the Plans adoption). Effective February 17,
2004, the Board of Directors adopted the Pacific Mercantile Bancorp 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the 2004 Plan), which was approved by the Companys shareholders in May 2004. That Plan authorizes the granting of options and rights to
purchase restricted stock to directors, officers and other key employees, that entitle them to purchase shares of common stock of the Company at, in the case of stock options, a

price per share equal to or above the fair market value of the Companys shares on the date the option is granted or, in case of stock purchase rights,
at prices and on such terms as are fixed by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors at the time the rights are granted. Options and restricted stock purchase rights may vest immediately or over various periods generally ranging up to
five years, or based on the achievement of specified performance goals, as determined by the Compensation Committee at the time it grants the options or the stock purchase rights. Options may be granted under the 2004 Plan for terms of up to 10
years after the grant date, but will terminate sooner upon or shortly after a termination of service occurring prior to the expiration of the term of the option. The Company will become entitled to repurchase any unvested shares subject to
restricted purchase rights in the event of a termination of employment or service of the holder of the stock purchase right or in the event the holder fails to achieve any goals that are required to be met as a condition of vesting. A total of
400,000 shares were authorized for issuance under the 2004 Plan.

Effective April 15, 2008, the Board of Directors adopted the Pacific
Mercantile Bancorp 2008 Equity Incentive Plan (the 2008 Plan), which was approved by the Companys shareholders in May 2008. That Plan authorizes the granting of stock options, and rights to purchase restricted stock to directors,
officers and other key employees, that entitle them to purchase shares of common stock of the Company at, in the case of stock options, a price per share equal to or above the fair market value of the Companys shares on the date the option is
granted or, in case of stock purchase rights, at prices and on such terms as are fixed by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors at the time the rights are granted. In addition, the 2008 Plan authorizes the Compensation Committee of
the Board to grant stock appreciation rights (SARs), which entitle the recipient of such rights to receive a cash payment in an amount equal to the difference between the fair market value of the Companys shares on the date of
vesting or exercise and a base price which, in most cases, will be equal to fair market value of the Companys shares on the date of grant. In lieu of such cash payment, the Company may deliver shares of common stock with a fair
market value, on the date of exercise, equal to the amount of such payment. Options, restricted stock purchase rights and SARs ordinarily will vest over various periods generally ranging up to five years, or based on the achievement of specified
performance goals, as determined by the Compensation Committee at the time it grants the options, the stock purchase rights or the SARs. However, the Committee has the authority to grant options that are fully vested at the time of grant. Options
and SARs may be granted under the 2008 Plan for terms of up to 10 years after the grant date, but will terminate sooner upon or shortly after a termination of service occurring prior to the expiration of the term of the option or SAR. The Company
will become entitled to repurchase any unvested shares subject to restricted purchase rights in the event of a termination of employment or service of the holder of the stock purchase right or in the event the holder fails to achieve any goals that
are required to be met as a condition of vesting. A total of 400,000 shares are authorized for issuance under the 2008 Equity Incentive Plan.

In December
2004, FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, which requires companies or other organizations that grant stock options or other equity compensation awards to employees to recognize, in their financial statements,
the fair value of those options and shares as compensation cost over their respective service (vesting) periods. In the case of the Company, SFAS No. 123(R) became effective January 1, 2006 and, as of that date, we adopted the fair value
recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), using the modified-prospective-transition method. Under this transition method, equity compensation expense includes: (a) compensation expense for all share-based payments granted prior to, but
not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on their grant date fair values estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, and (b) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to
December 31, 2005, based on their grant date fair values estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R). Since stock-based compensation that is recognized in the statement of income is to be determined based on the equity
compensation awards that we expect will ultimately vest, that compensation expense has been reduced for estimated forfeitures of unvested options that typically occur due to terminations of employment of optionees. SFAS No. 123(R) requires
forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods in the event actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. For purposes of determining stock-based compensation expense for the quarter ended
September 30, 2008, we estimated no forfeitures of options held by the Companys directors and all other forfeitures to be 21% of the unvested options issued.

5. Income Taxes

The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, (FIN 48) on
January 1, 2007. We did not have any unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2008 and September 30, 2007.

We file
income tax returns with the U.S. federal government and the state of California. As of September 30, 2008, we were subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service with respect to our U.S. federal tax returns for the 2005-2007 tax years.
We were also subject to examination in California by the Franchise Tax Board for California, for the 2003-2007 tax years. We do not believe there will be any material changes in our unrecognized tax positions over the next 12 months.

Our policy is that we recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. We did not have any
accrued interest or penalties associated with any unrecognized tax benefits, and no interest expense was recognized as a component of income tax expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007. Our effective tax rate differs
from the federal statutory rate primarily due to the non-deductibility of certain expenses recognized for financial reporting purposes and state taxes.

6. Fair Value

We use fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to
determine fair value disclosures. Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Additionally, from time to time, we may be required to record at fair value other assets on a nonrecurring basis, such as loans held for
investment and certain other assets. These nonrecurring fair value adjustments typically involve application of lower of cost or market accounting or write-downs of individual assets.

Fair Value Hierarchy. Under SFAS No. 157, we group assets and liabilities at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the
assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are:



|        |  |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   
|------- |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|Level 1 |  | Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         
|        | 
|Level 2 |  | Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation
techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.                                                                                                      
|        | 
|Level 3 |  | Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of assumptions
that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded
at fair value.

Assets

Investment Securities Available for Sale. Investment securities available-for-sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted prices, if available. If quoted prices are not available,
fair values are measured using independent pricing models or other model-based valuation techniques such as the present value of future cash flows, adjusted for the securitys credit rating, prepayment assumptions and other factors such as
credit loss assumptions. Level 1 securities include those traded on an active exchange, such as the New York Stock Exchange, U.S. Treasury securities that are traded by dealers or brokers in active over-the-counter markets and money market funds.
Level 2 securities include mortgage-backed securities issued by government sponsored entities, municipal bonds and corporate debt securities. Securities classified as level 3 include asset-backed securities in less liquid markets.

6. Fair Value (Cont.-)



Impaired Loans. SFAS No. 157 applies to loans measured for impairment in accordance with
SFAS No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, including impaired loans measured at an observable market price (if available), and at the fair value of the loans collateral (if the loan is collateral
dependent). The fair value of an impaired loan is estimated using one of several methods, including collateral value, market value of similar debt, enterprise value, liquidation value and discounted cash flows. Those impaired loans not requiring an
allowance for possible losses represent loans for which the fair value of the expected repayments or collateral exceed the recorded investments in such loans. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current
appraised value, we record the impaired loan at nonrecurring Level 2. When an appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market
price, we record the impaired loan at nonrecurring Level 3.

Foreclosed Assets. Foreclosed assets are adjusted to the lower of cost
or fair value, less estimated costs to sell, at the time the loans are transferred to foreclosed assets. Subsequently, foreclosed assets are carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value, less estimated costs to sell. Fair value is determined
on the basis of independent market prices, appraised values of the collateral or managements estimation of the value of the collateral. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value,
we record the foreclosed asset at nonrecurring Level 2. When an appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, we
record the foreclosed asset at nonrecurring Level 3.

The following table shows the recorded amounts of assets measured at fair value on a
recurring basis.

Assets Recorded at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Company may be required, from time to time, to measure certain assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles. These include assets that are measured at the lower of cost or market or that were recognized at a fair value below cost at the end of the period. Information regarding assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis is
set forth in the table below.

|ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Introduction

Pacific Mercantile Bancorp is a bank holding company that owns all of the stock of
Pacific Mercantile Bank (the Bank), which is a commercial bank that provides a full range of banking services to small and medium-size businesses and to professionals and the general public in Orange, Los Angeles, San Bernardino and San
Diego counties, in Southern California. Substantially all of our operations are conducted and substantially all of our assets are owned by the Bank, which accounts for substantially all of our consolidated revenues, expenses and operating income,

The following discussion presents information about our consolidated results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended
September 30, 2008 and 2007 and our consolidated financial condition, liquidity and capital resources at September 30, 2008 and should be read in conjunction with our interim consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included
elsewhere in this Report.

Forward-Looking Information

Statements contained in this Report that are not historical facts or that discuss our expectations, beliefs or views regarding our future operations or
future financial performance, or financial or other trends in our business, constitute 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 can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Often, they include the words believe, expect,
anticipate, intend, plan, estimate, project, or words of similar meaning, or future or conditional verbs such as will, would, should, could,
or may. The information contained in such forward-looking statements is based on current information and assumptions about future events over which we do not have control and our business is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties
that could cause our financial condition or actual operating results in the future to differ significantly from our expected financial condition or operating results that are set forth in those statements. Certain of those risks and uncertainties
are summarized below, in this Item 2 (under the caption Risks that could Affect our Future Financial Performance) and in Item 1A (entitled Risk Factors) in Part II of this report and those, as well as other, risks are
discussed in detail in Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2007. Readers of this report are urged to read the discussion of those risks below and the information contained in Item 1A of our
2007 10-K.

Due to those risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements
contained in this Report, which speak only as of the date of this Report, or to make predictions about future performance based solely on historical financial performance. We also disclaim any obligation to update forward-looking statements
contained in this Report or in our 2007 10-K or any other prior filings with Securities and Exchange Commission.

As the table above indicates, we generated net income of $354,000, or $0.03 per diluted share, in
the three months ended September 30, 2008, as compared to net income of $1.4 million, or $0.13 per diluted share in the same three months of 2007. In the nine months ended September 30, 2008, we generated net income of $525,000, or $0.05
per diluted share, as compared to $4.6 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, in the same nine months of 2007.

These declines in net income
were primarily attributable to (i) decreases of $1.1 million and $3.3 million in net interest income, and (ii) increases of $1.3 million and $4.5 million in the provisions made for loan losses, in the three and nine month periods ended September 30,
2008, respectively.

The decreases in net interest income and net income were primarily attributable to:



| |  |  | Declines in interest income of $2.8 million, or 15.7%, and $6.8 million, or 12.9%, respectively, in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008, as a
result of:
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | reductions of 325 basis points in interest rates by the Federal Reserve Board from September 30, 2007 to September 30, 2008 in response to the economic downturn,
which led to decreases in prevailing interest rates that adversely affected the yields on our loans and other interest-earning assets and more than offset (i) declines in interest expense, consisting principally of interest paid on deposits, as a
result of those same decreases in prevailing market rates of interest and (ii) the positive effect on interest income of increases in the volume of loans we made during these periods;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | increases, of $8.7 million and $12.3 million, in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, in non-performing loans on which we ceased accruing interest
income, that we attribute primarily to the worsening of economic conditions in the United States which made it more difficult for borrowers to meet their loan payment obligations; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | increases, both as a percentage of total deposits and in absolute dollars, in time deposits, which bear higher rates of interest than other types of deposits, in
order to offset decreases in lower cost core deposits, as customers increased withdrawals of those deposits to fund their cash needs and to purchase, what they believed were more secure, U.S. Treasury securities, as a result of worsening economic
conditions and the credit crisis.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Increases that we made in the provisions for loan losses, in both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, in order to increase our loan loss reserve at
September 30, 2008 to $8.4 million, or 1.00% of the total loans then outstanding, from $6.1 million, or 0.79% of total loans outstanding at December 31, 2007, primarily due to an increase in non-performing loans and other non-performing assets to
$26.2 million at September 30, 2008 from $8.4 million at December 31, 2007, which we attribute to the worsening of economic conditions.

##### Table of Contents

Partially offsetting the declines in net interest income in both the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2008, were increases in non-interest income of $335,000, or 91%, and $1.6 million, or 150%, respectively, due to gains recognized on sales of securities held for sale and increases in fees and service charges on deposit account
transactions.

To reduce our exposure to the worsening conditions in the real estate market, since the fourth quarter of 2007 we have reduced the volume of single
family residential and real estate construction loans, while increasing the volume of commercial and business loans, in our loan portfolio. As a result, as of September 30, 2008, single family residential and real estate construction loans accounted
for 12.0% of the loans in our loan portfolio, as compared to 15.5% at September 30, 2007.

We believe that these reductions in the volume
of such real estate related loans, together with our actions in charging off non-performing loans and increasing the loan loss reserve, have improved the quality of our loan portfolio and, at the same time, has enhanced our ability to absorb
additional loan losses that are inherent in our loan portfolio.

In addition, as of September 30, 2008, the ratio of the Banks total
capital-to-risk weighted assets, which is the principal federal regulatory measure of the financial strength of banking institutions, was 11.2%, which exceeded the federal regulatory capital ratio required for the Bank to qualify as a
well-capitalized banking institution, which is the highest of the capital standards established under federal banking regulations.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and general practices in the banking industry. Certain of those accounting policies are considered critical accounting policies, because they require us to make estimates and
assumptions regarding circumstances or trends that could affect the value of those assets, such as, for example, assumptions regarding economic conditions or trends that could impact our ability to fully collect our loans or ultimately realize the
carrying value of certain of our other assets. Those estimates and assumptions are made based on current information available to us regarding those economic conditions or trends or other circumstances. If changes were to occur in the events, trends
or other circumstances on which our estimates or assumptions were based, or other unanticipated events were to happen that might affect our operating results, under GAAP it could become necessary to reduce the carrying values of the affected assets
on our balance sheet. In addition, because reductions in the carrying value of assets are sometime effectuated by or require charges to income, such reductions also may have the effect of reducing our income.

Our critical accounting policies relate to the determination of our allowance for loan losses, the fair value of securities available for sale and the
valuation of deferred tax assets.

Allowance for Loan Losses. The failure of borrowers to repay their loans is an inherent risk of
the banking business. Therefore, like virtually all banks and other lending institutions, we follow the practice of maintaining reserves (often referred to as an allowance) against which we charge losses on the loans we make (the allowance for
loan losses). The accounting policies and practices we follow in determining the sufficiency of that allowance require us to make judgments and assumptions about economic and market conditions and trends that can affect the ability of our
borrowers to meet their loan payment obligations to us. Accordingly, we use historical loss factors, adjusted for current economic market conditions and other economic indicators, to estimate the potential losses inherent in our loan portfolio and
assess the sufficiency of our allowance for loan losses. If unanticipated

changes were to occur in those conditions or trends, such as those that occurred during the first nine months of 2008, actual loan losses could be greater
than those predicted by those loss factors and our prior assessments of economic conditions and trends. In such an event, it could be necessary for us to increase the allowance for loan losses by means of a charge to income referred to in our
financial statements as the provision for loan losses. Such an increase would reduce the carrying value of the loans on our balance sheet, and the additional provision for loan losses taken to increase that allowance would reduce our
income in the period when it is determined that an increase in the allowance for loan losses is necessary. See the discussion in the subsections entitled Results of OperationsProvision for Loan Losses and Financial
ConditionAllowance for Loan Losses and Nonperforming Loans below.

Fair Value of Securities Available for Sale.
Securities available for sale are those that we intend to hold for an indefinite period of time, but which we may sell in response to changes in liquidity needs, changes in interest rates, changes in prepayment risks or other similar factors. Such
securities are recorded at fair value. Any unrealized gains and losses are reported as Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) rather than included in or deducted from earnings. We determine the fair value of those securities (as opposed to
securities which we intend to hold to maturity) by obtaining price quotations from third party vendors and securities brokers. When such quotations are not available, a reasonable fair value is determined by using a variety of industry standard
pricing methodologies including, but not limited to, discounted cash flow analysis, matrix pricing, option adjusted spread models, as well as fundamental analysis. These pricing methodologies require us to make various assumptions relating to such
matters as future prepayment speeds, yield, duration, monetary policy and demand and supply for the individual securities. Consequently, if changes were to occur in the market or other conditions on which those assumptions were based, it could
become necessary for us to make adjustments to the fair values of those securities, which would have the effect of changing our accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss) in our consolidated statements of financial condition.

Utilization of Deferred Income Tax Benefits. The provision that we make for income taxes is based on, among other things, our ability to use
certain income tax benefits available under state and federal income tax laws to reduce our income tax liability. As of September 30, 2008, the total of the unused income tax benefits (included in Other Assets in our consolidated
balance sheet), available to reduce our income taxes in future periods was $7.9 million. Unless used, such tax benefits expire over time. Therefore, the realization of those benefits is dependent on our generating taxable income in the future in
amounts sufficient to enable us to use those tax benefits prior to their expiration. We have made a judgment, based on historical experience and current and anticipated market and economic conditions and trends, that it is more likely than not that
we will generate taxable income in future years sufficient to fully utilize those benefits before they expire. In the event that market or economic conditions or our results of operation were to change in a manner that would lead us to conclude that
it would be less likely that those benefits could be fully utilized, it could become necessary for us to establish a valuation reserve to cover any potential loss of those tax benefits by increasing the provision we make for income taxes, which
would have the effect of reducing our net income in the period when that valuation reserve is established.

Utilization of Current
Income Tax Receivable. As of September 30, 2008 we had a current net income tax receivable of $874,000 generated by (i) a $734,000 receivable for 2007 income tax, and (ii) $140,000 of estimated overpayments of taxes for 2008.

Results of Operations

Net
Interest Income

One of the principal determinants of a banks income is net interest income, which is the difference between
(i) the interest that a bank earns on loans, investment securities and other interest-earning assets, on the one hand, and (ii) its interest expense, which consists primarily of the interest it must pay to attract and retain deposits and
the interest that it pays on borrowings and other interest-bearing liabilities, on the other hand. As a general rule, all other things being equal, the greater the difference between the amount of our interest income and the amount of our interest
expense, the greater will be our income; whereas, a decline in that difference will generally result in a decline in our net income. A banks interest income and interest expense are, in turn, affected by a number of factors, some of which are
outside of its control, including national and local economic conditions and the monetary policies of the Federal Reserve Board which affect interest rates, the demand for loans, and the ability of borrowers to meet their loan payment obligations.
Net interest income, when expressed as a percentage of total average interest earning assets, is a banking organizations net interest margin.

As the table above indicates, our net interest income decreased by $1.1 million, or 14%, in
the third quarter of 2008, and by $3.3 million, or 14%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2008, as compared to the same respective periods of 2007. Those decreases were primarily attributable to decreases in interest income of $2.8
million, or 16%, and $6.8 million, or 13%, respectively, in the three and nine month periods of 2008. Those decreases in interest income more than offset decreases in interest expense of $1.7 million, or 17%, and $3.5 million, or 12%,
respectively, in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008 over the respective corresponding periods of 2007.

The
decreases in interest income in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, were due primarily (i) to a 325 basis points decline in prevailing market rates of interest, which we believe was primarily the result of reductions,
commenced in September 2007, in the federal funds rate implemented by the Federal Reserve Board in response to the economic downturn, and (ii) increases in non-performing loans on which we ceased accruing interest income. Those decreases were
partially offset by the positive effects on our interest income of increases, in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, of $70 million and $57 million, respectively, in average loans outstanding, which generate higher yields than
other earning assets. We used lower-yielding federal funds and proceeds from the sale of securities available for sale, along with Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) borrowings, to fund those increases in loans.

The decreases in interest expense during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008 were primarily attributable to the aforementioned
decreases in prevailing market rates of interest, which enabled us to reduce interest rates on interest bearing deposits, partially offset by increases in the volume of interest-bearing deposits and a change in the mix of our deposits to a greater
proportion of time deposits which bear higher rates of interest than other types of deposits. The increase in the proportion of time deposits was necessitated by a decrease in the volume of demand and savings and money market deposits, which we
believe was due to (i) the worsening of economic conditions in the United States which has led consumers to make greater use of their savings to pay on-going expenses, (ii) downsizing by businesses which has led to reductions in balances
in business transaction accounts and (iii) more recently, the loss in confidence by consumers and investors in banks, which led to a shift of funds out of banks to treasury securities.

Due primarily to the decline in prevailing market rates of interest, our net interest margin decreased by 38 basis points to 2.56% in the three
months ended September 30, 2008, from 2.94% in the same period of 2007, and by 45 basis points to 2.52% in the nine months ended September 30, 2008, from 2.97% in the same nine months ended September 30, 2007. In the three months
ended September 30, 2008, the yield on interest-earning assets declined to 5.61% from 6.57% in the same period of 2007, which more than offset a decline in the average interest rate paid on interest bearing liabilities to 3.90%, from 4.78% in
the same three month period of 2007. Similarly, in the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the average rate of interest earned on average earning assets decreased to 5.73%, from 6.66% in the same nine month period of 2007, and was only
partially offset by a decrease in the average interest rate paid on interest bearing deposits to 3.94%, from 4.57% in the same period of 2007. The decreases in net interest margin also reflect timing differences in the impact that the declines in
market rates of interest have on our interest income and interest expense. Those declines resulted in automatic decreases in the interest rates on our adjustable rate loans, whereas the impact of those declines on the interest we paid on deposits
has been more gradual primarily as a result of the maturity schedule of our time deposits.

The above table indicates that the decrease of $1.1 million in our net interest income in the three months ended
September 30, 2008, as compared to the like period of 2007, was primarily the result of a $1.2 million decrease in rate variance, which more than offset an increase of $65,000 in interest income attributable to an increase in loan volume during
that three month period. The increase in volume variance reflects the change in mix of our earning assets from lower yielding short-term investments and securities available for sale to higher yielding loans partially offset by an increase in
interest bearing liabilities of $19 million. This decline in rate variance was the result of a decrease in interest rates on average earning assets of 96 basis points, somewhat offset by a decrease of 88 basis points in interest rates paid on
interest bearing liabilities.

The decline of $3.3 million in net interest income in the nine months ended September 30, 2008, as
compared to the same nine months of 2007, was due to a decrease in interest income that was primarily attributable to a decline in interest rates on interest earning assets. Those decreases were offset, somewhat, by decreases in the interest rates
paid on interest-bearing assets. The decrease in rate variance in the nine months ended September 30, 2008 reflects a decrease in interest rates on average interest-earning assets of 93 basis points, somewhat offset by a decrease in interest
rates on average interest-earning liabilities of 69 basis points.

Provision for Loan Losses

The failure of borrowers to repay their loans is an inherent risk of the banking business. Therefore, like virtually all banks and other lending
institutions, we follow the practice of maintaining an allowance for possible loan losses that occur from time to time as an incidental part of the banking business. When it is determined that the payment in full of a loan has become unlikely, the
carrying value of the loan is reduced to what management believes is its realizable value. This reduction, which is referred to as a loan charge-off, or write-down is charged against that allowance.

The amount of the allowance for loan losses is increased periodically (i) to replenish the allowance
after it has been reduced due to loan charge-offs, (ii) to reflect changes in the volume of outstanding loans, and (iii) to take account of changes in the risk of loan losses due to a deterioration in the condition of borrowers or in the
value of property securing nonperforming loans or adverse changes in economic conditions. See Financial ConditionAllowance for Loan Losses and Nonperforming Loans below in this Section of this Report. Increases in the
allowance are made through a charge, recorded as an expense in the statement of operations, referred to as the provision for loan losses. Recoveries of loans previously charged-off are added back to the allowance and, therefore, have the
effect of increasing the allowance and reducing the amount of the provision that might otherwise have had to be made to replenish or increase the allowance.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, of 2008, we made provisions of $1.6 million and $5.4 million, respectively, for potential loan losses, as compared to $300,000 and $925,000, respectively,
in the corresponding periods of 2007. Those increases were made (i) to replenish the loan loss reserve following net loan charge-offs of $327,000 and $3.2 million, respectively, during those three and nine month periods of 2008, and
(ii) to increase the loan loss reserve to provide for the increase in non-accrual loans during the first nine months of 2008. The increases in non-accrual loans, which totaled $20.3 million as of September 30, 2008, as compared to $6.2
million at September 30, 2007, were primarily attributable to the worsening economic conditions and the credit crisis in the United States.

As a result of the provisions made in this years third quarter, the allowance for loan losses totaled $8.4 million, or 1.00% of loans outstanding, as of September 30, 2008, as compared to $6.1 million, or 0.79% of loans
outstanding, at December 31, 2007.

We employ economic models that are based on bank regulatory guidelines, industry standards and
historical loss experience to evaluate and determine both the sufficiency of the allowance for loan losses and the amount of the provisions that are required to be made for potential loan losses. Those determinations involve judgments about trends
in current economic conditions and other events that can affect the ability of borrowers to meet their loan obligations to us. The duration and effects of current economic trends, such as the current economic downturn, are subject to a number of
risks and uncertainties and changes that are outside of our ability to control. See the discussion below in this section under the caption Risks That Could Affect Our Future Financial PerformanceWe could incur losses on the loans we
make. If changes in economic or market conditions or unexpected subsequent events were to occur, it could become necessary for us to incur additional charges to increase the allowance for loan losses (as we have done in the three and nine
months ended September 31, 2008), which would have the effect of reducing our income.

In addition, the Federal Reserve Bank of San
Francisco and the California Department of Financial Institutions, as an integral part of their examination processes, periodically review the adequacy of our allowance for loan losses. These agencies may require us to make additional provisions,
over and above the provisions that we have already made, the effect of which would be to reduce our income.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income consists primarily of fees charged for services provided by the Bank on deposit account transactions and gains on sales of assets,
consisting primarily of securities available for sale. The following table identifies the components (in thousands of dollars) of, and sets forth the percentage changes in, noninterest income in the three and nine months ended September 30,
2008, as compared to the same respective periods of 2007.

The increase in non-interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2008, as
compared to the same period in 2007, was primarily the result of an $186,000 increase in service fees on deposit account transactions and $127,000 gain on sales of securities available for sale. The increase in non-interest income for the nine
months ended September 30, 2008, as compared to the same period in 2007, was primarily the result of (i) a $1.3 million gain recognized, during the first quarter of 2008, on sales of securities available for sale, which were made to
reposition our portfolio of such securities as part of our overall management of the mix and matching of maturities and repricing of our assets and liabilities, and (ii) a $392,000 increase in fees and service charges on deposit account
transactions.

Noninterest expenses declined by
$298,000, or 5%, in the three months ended September 30, 2008 because, in the corresponding three months of 2007, we recognized a $457,000 non-cash charge to amortize debt issuance costs related to the early redemption of $10.3 million of
junior subordinated debentures,

whereas such charges totaled only $4,000 in the three months ended September 30, 2008. That reduction in debt amortization costs was partially offset by
a $307,000 increase in salaries and related expenses due to the addition of commercial loan officers during first nine months of 2008, as part of our initiative to increase commercial loans and decrease single family real estate and real estate
construction loans. In the nine months ended September 30, 2008, noninterest expense increased by $598,000, or 4%, primarily as a result of (i) an increase of $654,000 in salaries and related expenses due primarily to the addition of loan
officers; (ii) an increase of $494,000 in other real estate owned (OREO) expense; and (iii) an increase of $162,000 in professional fees, which were partially offset by the fact that the non-cash charge for the amortization of debt
issuance costs totaled only $10,000 in the first nine months of 2008 as compared to $486,000 in the same nine months of 2007.

Due to the
decline in net interest income our efficiency ratio (non-interest expense as a percentage of total revenues) was 72% in the three months ended September 30, 2008, as compared to 69% in the same three months of 2007. In the nine months ended
September 30, 2008, our efficiency ratio was 74%, as compared to 66% for the same nine months of 2007, due to the combined effects of the decline in net interest income and the increase in non-interest expense in the nine months ended
September 30, 2007.

Asset/Liability Management

The primary objective of asset/liability management is to reduce our exposure to interest rate fluctuations, which can affect our net interest margins and, therefore, our net interest income and net earnings. We seek
to achieve this objective by matching interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities, and maintaining the maturities and the repricing of these assets and liabilities at appropriate levels in response to the changes in the interest rate environment.
Generally, if rate sensitive assets exceed rate sensitive liabilities, net interest income will be positively impacted during a rising interest rate environment and negatively impacted during a declining interest rate environment. When rate
sensitive liabilities exceed rate sensitive assets, net interest income generally will be positively impacted during a declining interest rate environment and negatively impacted during a rising interest rate environment. However, interest rates for
different asset and liability products offered by depository institutions respond differently to changes in the interest rate environment, the relationship or gap between interest sensitive assets and interest sensitive liabilities is
only a general indicator of interest rate sensitivity and how our net interest income might be affected by changing rates of interest. For example, rates on certain assets or liabilities typically lag behind changes in market rates of interest.
Additionally, prepayments of loans and securities available for sale, and early withdrawals of certificates of deposit, can cause the interest sensitivities to vary.

At September 30, 2008, our rate sensitive balance sheet was shown to be in a negative
twelve-month gap position. This would imply that our net interest margin would decrease in the shortterm if interest rates were to rise and would increase in the short-term if interest rates were to fall. However, as noted above, the extent to
which our net interest margin will be impacted by changes in prevailing interests rates will depend on a number of factors, including how quickly rate sensitive assets and liabilities react to interest rate changes, the mix of our interest earning
assets (loans versus other lower yielding interest earning assets, such as securities or federal funds sold) and the mix of our interest bearing deposits (between, for example, lower interest core deposits and higher cost time certificates of
deposit) and our other interest bearing liabilities.

Assets

Our total consolidated assets increased by $90 million to $1.167 billion at
September 30, 2008 from $1.077 billion at December 31, 2007, as we used increases in deposits and borrowings during the nine months ended September 30, 2008 to fund increases in loans and federal funds sold.

Allowance for Loan Losses and Nonperforming Loans

Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses (the Allowance) at September 30, 2008 was
$8.4 million, which represented approximately 1.00% of the loans outstanding at September 30, 2008, as compared to $6.1 million, or 0.79%, of the loans outstanding at December 31, 2007.

We carefully monitor changing economic conditions, the loan portfolio by category, the financial condition of borrowers, the historical performance of
the loan portfolio, and we follow bank regulatory guidelines in determining the adequacy of the allowance. We believe that the allowance at September 30, 2008 was adequate to provide for losses inherent in the loan portfolio. However, as the
volume of loans increases, additional provisions for loan losses will be required to maintain the allowance at adequate levels. Additionally, the allowance was established on the basis of assumptions and judgments regarding such matters as economic
conditions and trends and the condition of borrowers, historical industry loan loss data and regulatory guidelines and, if there are changes in those conditions or trends, such as those that occurred during the first nine months of 2008, actual loan
losses in the future could vary from the losses that were predicted on the basis of those earlier assumptions, judgments and guidelines. For example, if economic conditions were to deteriorate further, or interest rates were to increase
significantly, which would have the effect of increasing the risk that borrowers would encounter difficulties meeting their loan payment obligations, it could become necessary to increase the allowance by means of additional provisions for loan
losses. See Results of OperationsProvision for Loan Losses above.

Set forth below is a summary, in
thousands of dollars, of the transactions in the allowance for loan losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and the year ended December 31, 2007:

Non-Performing Loans. We also measure and establish reserves for loan impairments on a
loan-by-loan basis using either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at a loans effective interest rate, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral-dependent. We exclude smaller, homogeneous loans, such
as consumer installment loans and lines of credit, from our impairment calculations. Also, loans that experience insignificant payment delays or shortfalls are generally not considered impaired. We generally cease accruing interest, and therefore
classify as nonaccrual, any loan as to which principal or interest has been in default for a period of 90 days or more, or if repayment in full of interest or principal is not expected.

##### Table of Contents

At September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, we had loans totaling $20.3 million and $8.0
million, respectively, that were classified as nonaccrual and impaired. The $20.3 million of nonaccrual loans at September 30, 2008 included $879,000 of loans with no delinquency issues and $5.6 million of loans less than 90 days delinquent.
The $8.0 million of nonaccrual loans at December 31, 2007 included $324,000 of loans less than 90 days delinquent. The increase in nonperforming loans at September 30, 2008, as compared to December 31, 2007, was mainly attributable to
four construction/development loans and one commercial real estate loan, in an aggregate amount of $16.1 million, which had become non-performing and were placed on nonaccrual status during the first nine months of 2008. We believe that all of these
nonaccrual loans are well-collateralized and/or adequately reserved.

Loans delinquent 90 days or more totaled $15.8 million, of which
$2.0 million is accruing interest, at September 30, 2008; whereas, as of September 30, 2007, $7.7 million of loans were delinquent 90 days or more, none of which were still accruing interest. The Bank had five troubled debt restructurings,
of which there were two loans totaling $3.3 million that continued to accrue interest and three loans totaling $824,000 that were included in nonaccrual balances, at September 30, 2008. At December 31, 2007, the Bank had one loan for
$300,000 as a troubled debt restructuring that was still accruing interest. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, our average investment in impaired loans was $6.8 million. The interest that we would have earned during the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2008, if the impaired loans had remained current in accordance with their original terms, was $538,000 and $959,000, respectively.

Other Nonperforming Assets

Other real estate owned (OREO) totaled $6.0 million at
September 30, 2008 as compared to $425,000 at December 31, 2007. At September 30, 2008 there was one single family residence and two construction/development projects classified as other real estate owned. The OREO properties are
currently listed for sale with unaffiliated real estate brokerage firms.

Deposit Totals. Deposits totaled $791 million at September 30, 2008 as compared to
$747 million at December 31, 2007. At September 30, 2008, noninterest-bearing deposits totaled $170 million and represented 21% of total deposits, as compared to $188 million and 25% of total deposits at December 31, 2007. At
September 30, 2008, certificates of deposit in denominations of $100,000 or more totaled $277 million and represented 35% of total deposits, as compared to $229 million and 31% of total deposits at December 31, 2007. We believe
that the decline in noninterest bearing deposits was primarily attributable to the economic downturn. We increased the volume of the time certificates of deposits in order to offset, on a short-term basis, the decline in non-interest-bearing
deposits and to provide additional funds primarily for loans.

Liquidity

We actively manage our liquidity needs to ensure that sufficient funds are available to meet our needs for cash, including to fund new loans to and deposit withdrawals by our customers. We project the future sources
and uses of funds and maintain sufficient liquid funds for unanticipated events. Our primary sources of cash include payments on loans, proceeds from the sale or maturity of investments, increases in deposits and increases in borrowings principally
from the Federal Home Loan Bank. The primary uses of cash include funding new loans and making advances on existing lines of credit, purchasing investments, including securities available for sale, funding deposit withdrawals and paying operating
expenses. We maintain funds in overnight federal funds and other short-term investments to provide for short-term liquidity needs. We also have obtained credit lines from the Federal Home Loan Bank and other financial institutions to meet any
additional liquidity requirements.

Our liquid assets, which included cash and due from banks, federal funds sold, interest earning
deposits with financial institutions and unpledged securities available for sale (excluding Federal Reserve Bank and Federal Home Loan Bank stock) totaled $131 million, which represented 11.2% of total assets at September 30, 2008.

Cash Flow Provided by Operating Activities. Cash flow of $4.1 million was provided by operating activities during the nine months ended
September 30, 2008.

Cash Flow Used in Investing Activities. In the nine months ended September 30, 2008, we used $102
million of cash generated by sales of securities and $31 million from maturities of and principal payments received on securities available for sale, primarily to fund $118 million in purchases of securities and $71 million to fund an
increase in loans.

Cash Flow Provided by Financing Activities. Cash flow of $83 million was provided by financing activities during
the nine months ended September 30, 2008, comprised of net increases of $40 million in borrowings and $44 million in deposits.

Ratio of Loans to Deposits.The relationship between gross loans and total deposits can provide a useful measure of a banks liquidity. Since repayment of loans tends to be less predictable than the maturity of
investments and other liquid resources, the higher the loan-to-deposit ratio the less liquid are our assets. On the other hand, since we realize greater yields and higher interest income on loans than we do on investments, a lower loan-to-deposit
ratio can adversely affect interest income and earnings. As a result, our goal is to achieve a loan-to-deposit ratio that appropriately balances the requirements of liquidity and the need to generate a fair return on assets. At September 30,
2008 and December 31, 2007 the ratios of loans-to-deposits were 106% and 104%, respectively.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

Loan Commitments and Standby Letters of Credit. In order to meet the financing needs of our customers, in the normal course of business we make
commitments to extend credit and issue standby commercial letters of credit to or for our customers. At September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, we were committed to fund certain loans amounting to approximately $220 million and
$237 million, respectively.

Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit generally have fixed expiration dates or other
termination clauses and the customer may be required to pay a fee and meet other conditions in order to draw on those commitments or standby letters of credit. We expect, based on historical experience, that many of the commitments will expire
without being drawn upon and, therefore, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

##### Table of Contents

To varying degrees, commitments to extend credit involve elements of credit and interest rate risk for us
that are in excess of the amounts recognized in our balance sheets. Our maximum exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the customers to whom such commitments are made could potentially be equal to the amount of those commitments.
As a result, before making such a commitment to a customer, we evaluate the customers creditworthiness using the same underwriting standards that we would apply if we were approving loans to the customer. In addition, we often require the
customer to secure its payment obligations for amounts drawn on such commitments with collateral such as accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, income-producing commercial properties, residential properties and properties
under construction. As a consequence, our exposure to credit and interest rate risk on such commitments is not different in character or amount than risks inherent in the outstanding loans in our loan portfolio.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk
involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan commitments to customers.

We believe that
our cash and cash equivalent resources, together with available borrowings under our credit facilities, will be sufficient to enable us to meet any increases in demand for loans or in the utilization of outstanding loan commitments or standby
letters of credit and any increase in deposit withdrawals that might occur in the foreseeable future.

Contractual Obligations

Borrowings. As a source of additional funds that we have used primarily to fund loans and to purchase other interest earning assets, and to provide
us with a supplemental source of liquidity, we have obtained long and short term borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank (the FHLB). As of September 30, 2008, we had $145 million of outstanding long-term borrowings, with
maturities ranging from November 2009 to December 2010, and $91 million of outstanding short-term borrowings, with maturities ranging from October 2008 to September 2009 that we had obtained from the Federal Home Loan Bank. These borrowings,
together with securities sold under agreements to repurchase, have a weighted-average annualized interest rate of 4.44%. By comparison, as of December 31, 2007, we had $118 million of outstanding long-term borrowings and $84 million
of outstanding short-term borrowings that we had obtained from the Federal Home Loan Bank, which, together with the securities sold under agreements to repurchase, had a weighted-average annualized interest rate of 4.98%.

At September 30, 2008, U.S. agency and mortgage backed securities, U.S. Government agency securities and collateralized mortgage obligations with an
aggregate fair market value of $151 million and $234 million of residential mortgage and other real estate secured loans were pledged to secure these Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings, repurchase agreements, local agency deposits, and
treasury, tax and loan accounts.

The highest amount of borrowings that were outstanding at any month-end during the nine months ended
September 30, 2008 consisted of $236 million of borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank and $13 million of overnight borrowings in the form of securities sold under repurchase agreements. During 2007, the highest amount of
borrowings outstanding at any month-end consisted of $231 million of advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank and $10 million of overnight borrowings in the form of securities sold under repurchase agreements.

Junior Subordinated Debentures. Pursuant to rulings of the Federal Reserve Board, bank holding companies have been permitted to issue long term
subordinated debt instruments that will, subject to certain conditions, qualify as and, therefore, augment capital for regulatory purposes. Pursuant to those rulings, in 2002, we formed subsidiary grantor trusts to sell and issue to institutional
investors a total of approximately $17.5 million principal amount of floating junior trust preferred securities (trust preferred securities). We received the net proceeds from the sale of the trust preferred securities in exchange for
our issuance to the grantor trusts, of a total $17.5 million principal amount of our junior subordinated floating rate debentures (the Debentures), the payment terms of which mirror those of the trust preferred securities. The payments
we make on the Debentures are used by the grantor trusts to make the corresponding payments on the trust preferred securities and the Debentures are pledged as security for the payment obligations of the grantor trusts with respect to the trust
preferred securities.

In October 2004, we established another grantor trust that sold an additional $10.3 million of trust preferred
securities to an institutional investor and, in connection therewith, we sold and issued an additional $10.3 million principal amount of junior subordinated floating rate debentures in exchange for the proceeds raised from the sale of those
trust preferred securities.

During the quarter ended September 2007, we voluntarily redeemed, at par, $10.3 million principal amount
of the Debentures that we issued in 2002.

Set forth below are the respective principal amounts, in thousands of dollars, and certain other
information regarding the terms, of the Debentures that remained outstanding as of September 30, 2008:

|(1) | Interest rate resets quarterly.
|--- | -------------------------------

These Debentures require quarterly interest payments. Subject to certain conditions, we have the right, at our discretion, to defer those interest
payments for up to five years. However, we have no need and have no plans to exercise this deferral right.

Under the Federal Reserve Board
rulings, the borrowings evidenced by the Debentures, which are subordinated to all of our other borrowings that are outstanding or which we may obtain in the future, are eligible (subject to certain dollar limitations) to qualify, and at
September 30, 2008, all $17.5 million principal amount of those Debentures qualified as Tier I capital for regulatory purposes.

These Debentures are redeemable, at our option, without premium or penalty, beginning five years after their respective original issue dates. As noted above, we exercised this voluntary redemption right to redeem $10.3 million principal
amount of the Debentures that we issued in 2002.

##### Table of Contents

The amortized cost and estimated fair value, at September 30, 2008, of securities available for sale
are shown, in thousands of dollars, in the following table, by contractual maturities and historical prepayments based on the prior nine months of principal payments. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities and historical
prepayments, particularly with respect to collateralized mortgage obligations, because borrowers may react to interest rate market conditions differently than the historical prepayment rates.

We regularly monitor investments for significant declines in fair value. We have determined that
the declines in the fair values of these investments below their amortized costs, as set forth in the table above, are temporary based on the following: (i) those declines are due to interest rate changes and not due to a deterioration in the
creditworthiness of the issuers of those investment securities, and (ii) we have the ability to hold those securities until there is a recovery in their values or until their maturity.

Capital Resources

Capital Regulatory Requirements Applicable to Banking Institutions. Under federal banking regulations that apply to all United States based bank holding companies and federally insured banks, the Company (on a
consolidated basis) and the Bank (on a stand-alone basis) must meet specific capital adequacy requirements that, for the most part, involve quantitative measures primarily in terms of the ratios of their capital to their assets, liabilities, and
certain off-balance sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Under those regulations, based primarily on those quantitative measures each bank holding company must meet a minimum capital ratio and each federally insured bank is
determined by its primary federal bank regulatory agency to come within one of the following categories.



| |  |  | well capitalized
| | - |  | ----------------



| |  |  | adequately capitalized
| | - |  | ----------------------



| |  |  | undercapitalized
| | - |  | ----------------



| |  |  | significantly undercapitalized; or
| | - |  | ----------------------------------



| |  |  | critically undercapitalized
| | - |  | ---------------------------

Certain
qualitative assessments also are made by a banking institutions primary federal regulatory agency that could lead the agency to determine that the banking institution should be assigned to a lower capital category than the one indicated by the
quantitative measures used to assess the institutions capital adequacy. At each successive lower capital category, a bank is subject to greater operating restrictions and increased regulatory supervision by its federal bank regulatory agency.

The following table sets forth the capital and capital ratios of the Company (on a consolidated basis) and the Bank (on a stand alone
basis) at September 30, 2008, as compared to the respective minimum regulatory requirements applicable to them.

At September 30, 2008 the Bank (on a stand-alone basis) continued to qualify as a
well-capitalized institution, and the Company continued to exceed the minimum required capital ratios, under the capital adequacy guidelines described above. In the quarter ended September 30, 2008 the Company made a $2.0 million capital
contribution to the Bank, thereby increasing its total capital and Tier 1 capital.

The consolidated total capital and Tier 1 capital of
the Company, at September 30, 2008, include an aggregate of $17.5 million principal amount of Junior Subordinated Debentures that we issued in 2002 and 2004 in connection with the sale of trust preferred securities. We contributed all
$17.5 million to the Bank, thereby increasing its total capital and Tier 1 capital.

Dividend Policy. Our Board of Directors has
followed the policy of retaining earnings to support the growth of the Companys banking franchise, but will consider paying cash dividends based on a number of factors, including prevailing market conditions and the availability and
alternative uses that can be made of cash in excess of the requirements of the Companys business.

##### Table of Contents

Pursuant to that policy, in February 2008, the Board of Directors declared a one-time cash dividend, in
the amount of $0.10 per share of common stock that was paid on March 14, 2008 to all shareholders of record as of February 29, 2008.

It continues to be the policy of the Board to retain earnings to support future growth and, at the present time, there are no plans to declare any additional cash dividends, at least until economic conditions improve. However, the Board of
Directors intends from time to time to consider the advisability of paying additional dividends in the future. Any such decision will be based on a number of factors, including the Companys future financial performance, its available cash
resources and any competing needs for cash that the Company may have and prevailing economic and market conditions.

Share Repurchase
Programs.In September 2005, our Board of Directors concluded that, at prevailing market prices, the Companys shares represented an attractive investment opportunity and, therefore, that repurchases of Company shares would be a good
use of Company funds. As a result, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program (the 2005 Share Repurchase Program), which authorized the Company to purchase up to two percent (2%) of the Companys outstanding
common shares, which approximates 200,000 shares in total.

For the same reasons, in October 2008 the Board of Directors adopted a new
share repurchase program which authorizes purchases by the Company of up to $2 million of our common shares, in addition to the shares that may still be purchased under the 2005 Share Repurchase Program.

Pursuant to these two programs, share purchases may be made in the open market or in private transactions, in accordance with applicable Securities and
Exchange Commission rules, when opportunities become available to purchase shares at prices believed to be attractive. The Company is under no obligation to repurchase shares under either of these share repurchase programs and the timing, actual
number and value of shares that are repurchased by the Company will depend on a number of factors, including the Companys future financial performance and available cash resources, competing uses for its corporate funds, prevailing market
prices of its common stock and the number of shares that become available for sale at prices that the Company believes are attractive, as well as any regulatory requirements applicable to the Company.

Through September 30, 2008 the Company had purchased, under the 2005 Share Repurchase Program, a total of $105,354 of its shares of common stock,
which includes 2,818 shares purchased in open market transactions in July 2008 for an aggregate purchase price of $20,000, or $7.00 per share.

Risks
That Could Affect Our Future Financial Performance

This Report, including the discussion and analysis of our financial condition and
results of operations set forth above, contains certain forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements set forth our estimates of, or our expectations, beliefs or views regarding our future financial performance that are based on current
information and that are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual operating results and financial performance in the future to differ significantly from those expected at the current time. Those risks and
uncertainties include, although they are not limited to, the following:

We face intense competition from other banks and financial
institutions that could hurt our business

We conduct our business operations in Southern California, where the banking business is
highly competitive and is dominated by a relatively small number of large multi-state banks with operations and offices covering wide geographical areas. We also compete with other financial service businesses, mutual fund companies, and securities
brokerage and investment banking firms that offer competitive banking and financial products and services as well as products and services that we do not offer. The larger banks, and some of those other financial institutions, have greater resources
that enable them to conduct extensive advertising campaigns and to shift resources to regions or activities of greater potential profitability. Some of these banks and institutions also have substantially more capital and higher lending limits that
enable them to attract larger clients, and offer financial products and services that we are unable to offer, particularly with respect to attracting loans and deposits. Increased competition may prevent us (i) from achieving increases, or
could even result in decreases, in our loan volume or deposit balances, or (ii) from increasing interest rates on loans or reducing interest rates we pay to attract or retain deposits, any of which could cause a decline in our interest income
or an increase in our interest expense, that could lead to reductions in our net interest income and earnings.

Adverse changes in economic conditions in Southern California could disproportionately harm our
business

The large majority of our customers and the properties securing a large proportion of our loans are located in Southern
California. A downturn in economic conditions or the occurrence of natural disasters in Southern California could harm our business by:



| |  |  | reducing loan demand which, in turn, would lead to reduced net interest margins and net interest income;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | affecting the financial capability of borrowers to meet their loan obligations, which could result in increases in loan losses that would require us to make
additional provisions for possible loan losses and possibly acquire, through foreclosure, real properties securing some of our loans in an effort to minimize loan losses, causing us to incur additional expenses and resulting in reduced earnings; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | causing reductions in real property values that, due to our reliance on real property to secure many of our loans, could make it more difficult for us to prevent
losses from being incurred on non-performing loans through the sale of such real properties.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

National economic
conditions and changes in Federal Reserve Board monetary policies could hurt our operating results

Our ability to sustain
profitability is substantially dependent on our net interest income. Like most banking organizations and other depository institutions, our net interest income is affected by a number of factors outside of our control, including changes in market
rates of interest that occur from time to time as a result of changes in national economic conditions, and changes by the Federal Reserve Board in its monetary policies in response to threats of increased inflation, a slowing of economic growth or
the on-set of recessionary conditions. For example, interest rate reductions by the Federal Reserve Board or a slowing of the economy can result in decreases in the interest we can earn on loans and other interest-earning assets, as occurred during
the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2008. Also, our net interest margin and net interest income could decline if we are not able, in response to such conditions, to reduce the interest rates we must pay on deposits and other
interest-bearing liabilities to the same extent as we are required to reduce the rates we are able to charge on the loans we make. Adverse changes in economic conditions also could cause (i) potential borrowers to fail to qualify for our loan
products and reduce loan demand, thereby reducing our net interest margins and our net interest income and (ii) increases in loan defaults which could result in an increase in loan losses and could require us to increase the provisions we must
make for possible loan losses, which would reduce our income.

We could incur losses on the loans we make

The failure or inability of borrowers to repay their loans is an inherent risk in the banking business. We take a number of measures designed to reduce
this risk, including the maintenance of stringent loan underwriting policies, the establishment of reserves for possible loan losses and the requirement that borrowers provide collateral that we could sell in the event they fail to pay their loans.
However, the ability of borrowers to repay their loans, the adequacy of our reserves and our ability to sell collateral for amounts sufficient to offset loan losses are affected by a number of factors outside of our control, such as changes in
economic conditions, increases in market rates of interest and changes in the condition or value of the collateral securing our loans. As a result, we could incur losses on the loans we make that will hurt our operating results and weaken our
financial condition.

Expansion of existing financial centers might not achieve expected growth or increases in profitability

We have grown substantially during the nine years since our inception by (i) opening new financial centers in population
centers, and (ii) adding loan officers and other banking professionals at our existing financial centers, with the objective of attracting additional customers including, in particular, small to medium size businesses, that will add to our
profitability. We intend to continue that growth strategy. However, there is no assurance that we will continue to be successful in achieving this objective. Implementation of this strategy will require us to incur expenses in establishing new
financial centers or adding banking professionals, long before we are able to attract, and with no assurance that we will succeed in attracting, a sufficient number of new customers that will enable us to generate the revenues needed to increase our
profitability. As a result, our earnings could decline if we are unable to successfully implement this strategy.

Government regulations may impair our operations, restrict our growth or increase our operating
costs

We are subject to extensive supervision and regulation by federal and state bank regulatory agencies. The primary objective
of these agencies is to protect bank depositors and other customers and not shareholders, whose respective interests will often differ. The regulatory agencies have the legal authority to impose restrictions which they believe are needed to protect
depositors and customers of banking institutions, even if those restrictions would adversely affect the ability of the banking institution to expand its business or pay cash dividends, or result in increases in its costs of doing business or hinder
its ability to compete with financial services companies that are not regulated or banks or financial service organizations that are less regulated. Additionally, due to the complex and technical nature of many of the government regulations to which
banking organizations are subject, inadvertent violations of those regulations may occur. In such an event, we would be required to correct or implement measures to prevent a recurrence of such violations. If more serious violations were to occur,
the regulatory agencies could limit our activities or growth, fine us or ultimately put us out of business.

Our computer and network
systems may be vulnerable to unforeseen problems and security risks

The computer systems and network infrastructure that we use to
provide automated and internet banking services could be vulnerable to unforeseen problems. Our operations are dependent upon our ability to protect our computer equipment against damage from fire, power loss, telecommunications failure, earthquakes
and similar catastrophic events and from security breaches. Any of those occurrences could result in damage to or a failure of our computer systems that could cause an interruption in our banking services and, therefore, harm our business, operating
results and financial condition. Additionally, interruptions in service and security breaches that could result in the theft of confidential customer information could lead existing customers to terminate their banking relationships with us and
could make it more difficult for us to attract new banking customers.

The loss of key personnel could hurt our financial performance

Our success depends to a great extent on the continued availability of our existing management and, in particular, on Raymond E.
Dellerba, our President and Chief Executive Officer. In addition to their skills and experience as bankers, our executive officers provide us with extensive community ties upon which our competitive strategy is partially based. As a result, the loss
of the services of any of these officers could harm our ability to implement our business strategy or our future operating results.

Other Risks

Other risks that could affect our future financial performance are described in Item 1A, entitled
Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and readers are urged to review those risks
as well.

Due to these and other possible uncertainties and risks, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward looking
statements, which speak only as of the date of this Report. We also disclaim any obligation to update forward-looking statements contained in this Report or in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.



|ITEM 3. | MARKET RISK
|------- | -----------

We are exposed to market risk as a
consequence of the normal course of conducting our business activities. The primary market risk to which we are exposed is interest rate risk. Our interest rate risk arises from the instruments, positions and transactions entered into for purposes
other than trading. They include loans, securities, deposit liabilities, and short-term borrowings. Interest rate risk occurs when assets and liabilities reprice at different times as market interest rates change. Interest rate risk is managed
within an overall asset/liability framework for the Company.

|ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
|------- | -----------------------

Our disclosure controls
and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under that Act (the
Exchange Act), such as this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Our disclosure controls and procedures also are
designed to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the
effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures in effect as of September 30, 2008. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2008, our disclosure
controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that material information, relating to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries, required to be included in our Exchange Act reports, such as this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q, is made known to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, on a timely basis.

There were no
changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter or nine months ended September 30, 2008 that has materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over
financial reporting.

PART II



|ITEM 1A. | RISK FACTORS
|-------- | ------------

There have been no material changes
from the risk factors that were disclosed under the caption Risk Factors in Item 1A of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, except as may otherwise be set forth above under the
caption Risks That Could Affect Our Future Financial Performance in Item 2 of Part I of this Report and except as follows:

The downturn in the economy during the first nine months of 2008 has led to increases in unemployment, business failures, declining real estate values and increases in real estate mortgage foreclosures and defaults on other types of loans.
These conditions, coupled with reductions in interest rates by the Federal Reserve Board in an effort to prevent economic conditions from worsening, led to a decline in our net interest income and net income in the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2008 and there are no assurances that these conditions will not continue to adversely affect our operating results in the future.

During the third quarter of 2008, further increases in mortgage loan foreclosures, coupled with declining real estate values and uncertainties regarding the severity and duration of the economic recession, led to a severe tightening of
available credit and to the failure or sale of a number of prominent investment banks and commercial banks which, among other things, created fears about the safety of bank deposits. As a result, despite the fact that deposits are federally insured,
we saw many depositors begin to withdraw deposits from their banks. In some cases, these withdrawals were made by customers, facing declines in their income, to fund their cash needs. However, in other cases, the withdrawals were made to purchase
U.S. Treasury securities, because many bank customers had come to believe that such securities were now safer than bank deposits. Although these conditions have not had a material adverse effect on the financial strength of the Company or the Bank,
like most other banks, during the third quarter of 2008 we experienced increased deposit withdrawals by our customers from non-interest bearing demand and transaction accounts and lower cost, interest-bearing savings and money market deposit
accounts (core deposits). Therefore, it became necessary for us to increase the volume of our time certificates of deposit and our borrowings that bear higher rates of interest than other types of deposits. As a result, our interest
expense increased and contributed to decreases in our net interest income and earnings for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008.

To increase confidence in the banking system, the FDIC has temporarily increased the insurance it provides for bank deposits generally, from $100,000 to $250,000 per depositor. More recently the FDIC announced that it will begin insuring
100% of deposits in noninterest bearing transaction accounts, at least until December 31, 2009. Although we believe that these actions will ease the fears that led many bank customers to withdraw funds from their deposit accounts, there is no
assurance that we or other federally insured banks will succeed in attracting additional core deposits in amounts that will enable us to reduce our current need for higher cost time deposits and borrowings, at least until economic conditions
improve. As a result, our cost of funds may continue to be higher than in prior years, which could adversely affect our net interest income and earnings in the future.

The above shares were purchased pursuant to a stock repurchase program that was publicly announced
on July 28, 2005 and at that time authorized repurchases of up to approximately 200,000 of the Companys shares, in open market and private transactions, in accordance with applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. This
program does not have an expiration date. However, the Company may elect (i) to suspend share repurchases at any time or from time to time, or (ii) to terminate the program prior to the repurchase of all of the shares authorized for
repurchase under this program. Accordingly, there is no assurance that any additional shares will be repurchased under this program. Through September 30, 2008 we had had purchased 105,354 shares under the program.
