                        REGENCY BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES
              NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Regency Bancorp and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the "Company"). Regency
Bancorp is a California corporation organized to act as the holding company for
Regency Bank (the "Bank") and Regency Investment Advisors, Inc., ("RIA").  RIA
provides investment management and consulting services.  The Bank has one
wholly-owned subsidiary, Regency Service Corporation, a California corporation
("RSC"), that engages in the business of real estate development primarily in
the Fresno/Clovis area.   All significant intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation.

     These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles on a basis consistent
with the accounting policies reflected in the audited consolidated financial
statements of the Company included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 1996.  They do not, however, include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, the unaudited
interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (all of which
are of a normal, recurring nature) necessary for a fair presentation of the
results for the interim periods presented.  Operating results for the interim
periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for any other interim period or for the year as a whole.

NOTE 2. - RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     In June 1996, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards SFAS No. 125 "Accounting for
Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities."
This Statement establishes standards for when transfers of financial assets,
including those with continuing involvement by the transferor, should be
considered a sale.  SFAS No. 125 also establishes standards for when a liability
should be considered extinguished. This statement is effective for transfers of
assets and extinguishments of liabilities after December 31, 1996. In December
1996, the FASB reconsidered certain provisions of SFAS No. 125 and issued SFAS
No. 127 "Deferral of the Effective Date of Certain Provisions of SFAS No. 125"
to defer for one year the effective date of implementation for transactions
related to repurchase agreements, dollar-roll repurchase agreements, securities
lending and similar transactions.  Management determined that the effect of
adoption of SFAS No. 125 on the Company's financial statements was not material
and believes that the effect of adoption of SFAS No. 127 will also not be
material.

     In February 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share".  This
Statement simplifies the standards for computing earnings per share ("EPS") and
makes them comparable to international EPS standards.  SFAS No. 128 replaces the
presentation of primary EPS with a presentation of  basic EPS.  In addition, all
entities with complex capital structures 

                                        6

<PAGE>

are required to provide a dual disclosure of basic and diluted EPS on the 
face of the income statement and a reconciliation of the numerator and 
denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of 
the diluted EPS computation.  This Statement applies to entities with 
publicly held common stock or potential common stock and is effective for 
financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997, 
including interim periods, and requires restatement of all prior period EPS 
data presented.  Management believes the adoption of this Standard will not 
materially affect its earnings per share.  

NOTE 3. - SECURITIES


     During the period between December 31, 1996, and March 31, 1997, the
Company recorded a net decrease in the value of its available-for-sale portfolio
of $141,000 net of applicable taxes.  This change is reflected as a change in
shareholders' equity in the Consolidated Statement of Shareholders' Equity. 
This decrease in value is primarily the result of higher interest rates in the
bond market at March 31, 1997 as compared to rates at December 31, 1996.

     Following is a comparison of the amortized cost and approximate fair 
value of securities available-for-sale:

ITEM 2.        MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
               FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

          Certain matters discussed in this Report on Form 10-Q are forward-
looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those projected.  Such risks and
uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described in Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. 
Therefore, the information set forth therein should be carefully considered when
evaluating the business prospects of the Company and the Bank. 

          FINANCIAL SUMMARY

          The Company's consolidated net income for the three months ended March
31, 1997, was $235,000 a 27% decrease when compared to earnings of $322,000 for
the period ended March 31, 1996.  Earnings per share decreased  to $0.12 in the
first quarter of 1997 compared to $0.17 in the first quarter of 1996. The
Company paid no cash dividends in the first quarter of 1997 while a cash
dividend of $0.06 per share was paid in the first quarter of 1996.    The
decline in net income of $87,000 was primarily due to losses related to the sale
of properties owned by RSC and secondarily by higher interest expense on deposit
accounts. 

          The Company's return on average assets was 0.54% for the first three
months of 1997 compared to 0.79% for the first three months of 1996.  Return on
average common equity for the first quarter was  6.97% compared to 9.56% for the
same period in 1996.

          During the first quarter of 1997, RSC continued to pursue divestiture
of its remaining real estate projects through various transactions. Over the
past 18 months RSC has obtained control and sole ownership of all but two of its
former limited partnerships.  On a stand alone basis, RSC lost ($487,000 pre-
tax) during the first quarter of 1997, substantially reducing the Company's
overall net income.  While RSC's divestiture continues to be a costly burden for
the Company, management has taken steps to reduce expenses in future periods
through streamlined operations related to project management.

          Regency Investment Advisors continued to produce better than 
expected earnings during the quarter ended March 31, 1997.  For the period, 
RIA on a stand alone basis produced pre-tax income of $46,000 compared to 
earnings of $5,000 for the first quarter of 1996.  At March 31, 1997, RIA's 
assets under management had increased to $78.9 million.

          NET INTEREST INCOME

          The Company's operating results depend primarily on net interest
income (the difference between the interest earned on loans and investments less
interest expense on deposit accounts and borrowings).  A primary factor
affecting the level of net interest income is the Company's interest rate
margin, the difference between the yield earned on interest earning assets and
the rate paid on interest bearing liabilities, as well as the difference between
the relative amounts of average interest earning assets and interest bearing
liabilities.

          The following table presents, for the periods indicated, the 
Company's total dollar amount of interest income from average interest 
earning assets and the resultant yields, as well as the interest expense on 
average interest bearing liabilities and the resultant cost, expressed both 
in dollars and rates.  The table also sets forth the net interest income and 
the net earning balance for the periods indicated.

     Changes in the interest margin can be attributed to changes in the yield on
interest earning assets, the rate paid on interest bearing liabilities, as well
as changes in the volume of interest earning assets and interest bearing 
liabilities. The following table presents the dollar amount of certain changes
in interest income and expense for each major component of interest earning
assets and interest bearing liabilities and the difference attributable to
changes in average rates and volumes for the periods indicated.

     Net interest income before the provision for credit losses was $2,169,000
for the first quarter of 1997 as compared to $2,188,000 for the comparable
period of 1996, a decrease of $19,000 or .87%. This decrease was primarily
attributable to lower overall yields on the loan portfolio as well as higher
interest expense related to a larger deposit base.   The Company's net interest
margin in the first quarter of 1997 (based on average interest earning assets)
was 6.10% as compared to 6.95% for the same period in 1996.  Interest earning
assets grew 13.8% between March 31, 1996 and March 31, 1997 primarily due to
higher amounts of federal funds sold.  Interest bearing liabilities grew 9.9%
over the same period.  The Company's earning asset mix changed slightly between
comparable periods with federal funds sold increasing from 1.2% of interest
earning assets during the first quarter of 1996 to 6.1% of interest earning
assets during the first quarter of 1997, while loans dropped from 75.1% to
71.2%.  The shift of interest earning assets from higher yielding loans to lower
yielding federal funds sold is one of the components causing the decline in the
net interest margin between the quarters ending March 31, 1996 and 1997,
respectively.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>


     Average interest earning assets increased to $144,128,000 at March 31,
1997, from $126,631,000 at March 31, 1996, an increase of $17,497,000 or 13.8%. 
Average loans increased by $7,520,000 or 7.9% to $102,568,000 representing 71.2%
of average interest earning assets in the first quarter of 1997, compared to
$95,048,000  or 75.1% in the first quarter of 1996. The yield on average loans
declined to 11.07% at March 31, 1997, from 12.14% at March 31, 1996, due to
lower margins on adjustable rate loans as well as lower fees.

     Other interest earning assets consist of investment securities, overnight
federal funds sold and other short term investments. These investments are
maintained to meet the liquidity requirements of the Company as well as pledging
requirements on certain deposits, and typically have a lower yield than loans. 
The yield on investments increased to 6.61% for the period ended March 31, 1997,
from 6.24% in the comparable period in 1996.  This change is primarily
attributed to lower yielding investment securities maturing and securities with
adjustable rate features repricing to higher interest rate levels. 
Additionally, new securities purchased in the last year have generally had
higher yields than those in the portfolio in the first quarter of 1996.

     Interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 was $1,279,000, an
increase of $113,000 or 9.7% from $1,166,000 in the quarter ended March 31,
1996.  Interest bearing liabilities increased by $11,632,000 or 9.9%, in the
first quarter of 1997 as compared to the first quarter of 1996 as the increased
volume in interest bearing liabilities caused the overall interest expense to
increase.

     NONINTEREST INCOME

     The Company receives a significant portion of its income from noninterest
sources related both to activities conducted by the Bank (SBA loan originations
and servicing and depositor service charges), as well as from the subsidiaries,
RSC and RIA.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>

(Income from RSC and RIA in these consolidated financial statements is included
in noninterest income.  A further discussion of RSC and RIA is set forth below.)

     During the first quarter of 1997, the Company recognized noninterest income
of $781,000 compared to $713,000 for the same period during 1996 an increase of
$68,000, or 9.5%.  The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in
income from investment management services  (see "Regency Investment Advisors")
as well as an increase in income from servicing fees on loans sold. 

Depositor service charges increased in the first quarter of 1997 to $98,000, an
increase of $22,000, or 28.9% from income of $76,000 in the first quarter of
1996.  The increase is primarily the result of growth in the Bank's deposit
account base over the past year. 

          SBA LOAN ORIGINATION & SALES

          The Bank originates loans to customers under a Small Business
Administration ("SBA") program that generally provides for SBA guarantees of 70%
to 90% of each loan. The Bank then sells the guaranteed portion of the loan in
the secondary market while retaining the unguaranteed portion of the loan as
well as the ongoing servicing. Income from the sale of the guaranteed portion is
affected by the timing and volume of sales (when loans are funded and available
for sale), as well as the premium paid in the secondary market. The premium paid
in the secondary market is further affected by the rate and terms of the loan as
well as the yield curve. 

          During the quarter ended March 31, 1997, the Company recognized gains
on sale of SBA loans of $270,000, a decrease of $45,000, or 14.3% from $315,000
in the comparable period of 1996.  The decrease was primarily the result of the
volume of loans sold, as well as, an increase in the associated costs of
servicing and holding the loans on an ongoing basis. 

          An additional source of income related to the Bank's SBA loan
origination activities is reflected in income from the ongoing servicing of
loans sold.  During the quarter ended March 31, 1997, servicing income totaled
$86,000 an increase of $28,000 or 48.3% from income of $58,000 during the
quarter ended March 31, 1996.  The increase was primarily the result of 1996's
first quarter income being reduced by payoffs of older loans in the Bank's
servicing portfolio which necessitated the amortization of previously recognized
capitalized servicing fees.  Income from the 

                                   14

<PAGE>

servicing of SBA loans in the first quarter of 1997 is more reflective of the 
Company's normal servicing fee income.

          REGENCY SERVICE CORPORATION (RSC)

          The Bank's wholly owned subsidiary, Regency Service Corporation
("RSC"), has engaged in real estate development activities since 1986.  Such
activities, which typically involve the acquisition, development and sale of
residential real properties (but which sometimes involve the sale of properties
prior to development), historically have been structured as limited partnerships
in which RSC is the limited partner and a local developer is the general
partner.  Partnerships are accounted for under the equity method.  Sales of
properties are recognized on the accrual method and are allocated between the
partners based on the provisions of the various partnership agreements.

     Under FDIC regulations, banks were required to divest their real estate
development investments as quickly as prudently possible but in no event later
than December 19, 1996, and submit a plan to the FDIC regarding divestiture of
such investments.  Such regulations also permitted banks to apply for the FDIC's
consent to continue, on a limited basis, certain real estate development
activities.

          In 1994, the Bank and RSC submitted a divestiture plan (the 
"Divestiture Plan") to the FDIC.  The Divestiture Plan provided for RSC to 
divest itself of all real estate development investments by year-end 1996; 
however, since RSC was a limited partner in the majority of its real estate 
development projects and, thus, did not control the operation of such 
projects, there was no assurance that such divestiture would occur by 
year-end 1996.  In December 1995, the Bank and RSC submitted a request to 
extend the mandatory time period in which it must divest of its real estate 
development interests.  In December 1996, the FDIC, responding to the Bank's 
request, granted the Bank and RSC a two year extension, until December 31, 
1998,  to continue its divestiture activities.

          As of March 31, 1997, the loss from investments in real estate 
partnerships amounted to $240,000 compared to a loss of $97,000 in the first 
quarter ended March 31, 1996, an increase of $143,000.  The increase resulted 
from the sale of additional properties at a loss.  On a stand alone basis, 
RSC's activities, (losses from the sale of properties plus operating 
expenses), reduced the Company's overall pre-tax income by $487,000 in the 
first quarter of 1997 compared to a loss of $294,000 in the first quarter of 
1996.  These operating expenses have been consolidated with similar operating 
expenses in the Company's consolidated statement of income and noninterest 
expense.  Reflected on a stand alone basis, RSC's overall operating expense 
as a percentage of average assets was 1.10% and  .72% in the quarter ended 
March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

          Effective April 1, 1997, RSC entered into a new construction and 
sales agreement with Gary McDonald Real Estate and Development Company 
("GMREDCO") replacing the previous project management agreement.  Under the 
new agreement, GMREDCO will construct pre-sold homes and a limited number of 
spec homes on lots selected by RSC's management as well as provide brokerage 
services on the aforementioned homes.  Management anticipates the new 

                                     15

<PAGE>

contract structure, as well as additional steps taken to reduce operating 
expenses will reduce monthly RSC expenses by $25,000 to $40,000 per month 
when fully implemented in June 1997. 

          In addition to the losses mentioned above, the reserve for 
potential real estate losses was reduced by $383,000 during the first quarter 
of 1997 to offset losses associated with the projects normal sales process.   
At March 31, 1997, the Company had $927,000 reserved for potential future 
losses from the sale of real estate.

          Additional discussion of loans made by RSC to its partnerships and, 
in general, of the Company's investment in RSC is contained in this report 
under the headings, "Nonperforming Loans" and "Investments in Real Estate".

          REGENCY INVESTMENT ADVISORS  (RIA)

          The Bank's wholly-owned subsidiary, Regency Investment Advisors 
("RIA"), was formed in August 1993 through the acquisition by the Bank of the 
assets, including the client list, of a fee-only investment management and 
consulting firm.  RIA provides investment management and consulting services, 
including comprehensive financial and retirement planning and investment 
advice, to individuals and corporate clients for an annual fee that varies 
depending upon the size of a client account.

          Income from RIA for the first quarter 1997 increased to $214,000 
from $164,000 in the same period of 1996, an increase of $50,000 or 30.5%.   
On a stand alone basis, RIA's activities, (income from investment management 
activities less operating expenses), provided the Company with pre-tax income 
of $46,000 in the first quarter of 1997 compared to a pre-tax income of 
$5,000 in the first quarter of 1996.  These operating expenses have been 
consolidated with similar operating expenses in the Company's consolidated 
statement of income and noninterest expense.

     RIA's ability to generate and increase income comes, in large part, from 
the volume of assets under management. As of March 31, 1997, RIA had $78.9 
million in assets under management, an increase of $14.9 million, or 23.3% 
compared to $64.0 million as of March 31, 1996.  Assets in client accounts 
managed by RIA are not reflected in the consolidated assets of the Company.

     Effective in the first quarter 1997, the Company and Bank received 
regulatory permission for the transfer of RIA, as a subsidiary of the Bank, 
to become a separate subsidiary of the Company.  While consolidated financial 
statements such as those included in this report on form 10-Q are not 
affected by this transaction, certain regulatory reports such as the Bank's 
quarterly Call Report will no longer include RIA's income or associated 
expenses.

     Other expenses increased by $203,000 or 8.67% to $2,545,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1997, compared to $2,342,000 during the same period of
1996, primarily due to losses from RSC investments in real estate and
secondarily due to higher costs of management fees for  RSC real estate
projects. When compared to average assets for the respective periods, other
expenses increased to 5.85% in 1997 versus 5.77% in 1996. 

          Losses related to RSC investments in real estate increased in the
first quarter of 1997  to $240,000 an increase of $143,000, or 147.4%, from
losses of $97,000 in the first quarter of 1996.  The primary cause of the
increase in losses was due to the sale of several model homes.  

          Salaries and related benefits increased by $53,000 or 4.77% in the
quarter ended March 31, 1997 to $1,164,000 from $1,111,000 in the first quarter
of 1996.  The primary cause of the increase can be attributed to additional
staff related to the opening of the Madera branch which was opened during the
third quarter of 1996.  Salaries and related benefits decreased as a percentage
of average assets, to 2.67% for the first quarter of 1997 from 2.74% during the
first quarter of 1996.

          Occupancy expense changed very little during the past year increasing
by $11,000, or 2.81%,  to $403,000 during the quarter ended March 31, 1997 from
$392,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996.  As a percentage of average
assets occupancy expense declined to .93% from .97%  for the periods ending
March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

          FDIC insurance and regulatory assessments increased 37.5% to $22,000
during the first quarter of 1997, an increase of $6,000 from $16,000 for the
quarter ended March 31, 1996.  The primary cause of the increase was the larger
deposit portfolio maintained by the Bank over the last year. 

          Professional services consist primarily of fees paid for legal,
accounting and consulting services to third party professionals.  During the
quarter ended March 31, 1997, professional services decreased by $33,000, or
21.4% to $121,000 from $154,000 during the first quarter of 1996.  As a
percentage of average assets, professional services were .28%  and .38%  in the
first quarter of 1997 and 1996, respectively.  The primary reason for the
decrease in professional services between the periods related to lower legal and
accounting costs for RSC.

          Management fees paid for real estate projects increased by $29,000 to
$108,000 in the period ended March 31, 1997 from $79,000 during the first
quarter of 1996.  As a percentage of average assets, management fees for real
estate projects were .25% and .19% for the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and
1996,  respectively.

     Supplies, telephone, postage and other expenses changed very little in the
first quarter of 1997 compared to the first quarter of 1996, with both
decreasing slightly.   Supplies, telephone and postage declined by $6,000 to
$79,000 for the period ended March 31, 1997 from $85,000 during the first
quarter of 1996.  As a percentage of average assets, supplies, telephone and
postage were .18% and .21%  in the quarter ended March 31, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.  Other expenses decreased by $20,000 to $222,000 for  the period
ended March 31, 1997 from $242,000 during the first quarter of 1996.  As a
percentage of average assets, other expenses were .51% and .60% for  the
quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

     BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS

     Total assets increased by $494,000 or .3% between December 31, 1996 and
March 31, 1997, primarily as a result of additional deposits acquired resulting
in additional liquidity for the Bank.  The Company's loan portfolio decreased by
$1,266,000 or 1.2%, primarily as a result of payoffs in the Company's real
estate loan portfolio.  Liquid funds in cash and federal funds sold increased
$1,457,000, or 7.3% during the first quarter of 1997,  primarily as a result of
additional deposits with low loan demand.  Securities increased by $2,559,000,
or 7.7%, as a portion of the additional deposits were invested in additional
securities.  Deposits increased during the first quarter of 1997 by $1,674,000
or 1.0%.

     LOANS

     The Company's loans are primarily made within its defined market area of
Fresno and Madera counties.

     Commercial loans, including SBA loans, comprised approximately 55.9% of the
Company's loan portfolio at March 31, 1997. These loans are generally to small
and mid-size businesses and professionals. Commercial loans are diversified as
to industries and types of business, with no material industry concentrations.
Most of these loans have floating rates with the majority tied to the national
Prime Rate. The primary source of repayment on most commercial loans is cash
flow from the primary business. Additional collateral in the form of real
estate, cash, accounts receivable, inventory or other financial instruments is
often obtained as a secondary source of repayment.

     Real Estate Construction lending comprised 22.8% of the Company's loan
portfolio at March 31, 1997, with these loans primarily for the construction of
single family residential housing. Loans in this category may be to the home
buyer or to the developer. Construction loans are secured by deeds of trust on
the primary property.  As presented on these consolidated statements, this
category also contains $3.0 million in loans RSC has made to its partnerships or
to facilitate the sale of a project.  The majority of construction loans have
floating rates tied to either the National Prime Rate or Regency Bank's
Reference Rate.  A significant portion of the borrowers' ability to repay these
loans is dependent on the residential real estate market, principally from the
sale of the property.  In this regard, the Company's potential risks include a
general decline in the value of the underlying property, as well as cost
overruns or delays in the sale or completion of a property. 

     Real Estate Mortgage loans comprised 12.7% of the loan portfolio at March
31, 1997, and are made up of (68%) non-residential properties and (32%) single-
family residential mortgages. The non-residential loans generally are "mini-
perm" (medium-term) commercial real estate mortgages with maturities under seven
years.  The residential mortgages are secured by first trust deeds and have
varying maturities.  Both types of loans may have either fixed or floating
rates.  The majority are floating. Risks associated with non-residential loans
include the decline in value of commercial property values; economic conditions
surrounding commercial real estate properties; and vacancy rates. The repayment
of single-family residential mortgage loans is generally dependent on the income
of the borrower from other sources, however, declines in the underlying property
value may create risk in these loans.

     Consumer installment loans represented the remainder of the loan portfolio
at March 31, 1997, comprising 8.6% of total loans. This category includes
traditional Consumer Installment Loans (23%), Home Equity Lines of Credit (68%),
Leases (1%), and Visa Card Loans (8%). Consumer installment loans are generally
secured by second trust deeds on single-family residences, while Visa Cards are
unsecured.

     RISK ELEMENTS 

     The Company assesses and manages credit risk on an ongoing basis through
stringent credit review and approval policies, extensive internal monitoring and
established formal lending policies.  Additionally, the Bank contracts with an
outside loan review consultant to periodically grade new loans and to review the
existing loan portfolio.   Management believes its ability to identify and
assess risk and return characteristics of the Company's loan portfolio is
critical for profitability and growth.   Management strives to continue the
historically low level of credit losses by continuing its emphasis on credit
quality in the loan approval process, active credit administration and regular
monitoring.  With this in mind, management has designed and implemented a
comprehensive loan review and grading system that functions to continually
assess the credit risk inherent in the loan portfolio.   Additionally,
management believes its ability to manage portfolio credit risk is enhanced by
the knowledge of the Bank's service area, by the lending personnel and Board of
Directors. 

     NONPERFORMING LOANS

     The Company's current policy is to cease accruing interest when a loan
becomes 90-days past due as to principal or interest; when the full, timely
collection of interest or principal becomes uncertain; or when a portion of the
principal balance has been charged off, unless the loan is well secured and in
the process of collection.  When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, the
accrued and uncollected interest receivable is reversed and the loan is
accounted for on the cash or cost recovery method thereafter, until qualifying
for return to accrual status.  Generally, a loan may be returned to accrual
status when all delinquent interest and principal become current in accordance
with the terms of the loan agreement or when the loan is both well secured and
in process of collection.  


     At March 31, 1997, nonaccrual loans amounted to $3,442,000 or 3.40% of
total loans compared to $3,301,000 or 3.22% at December 31, 1996 and $3,920,000
or 3.85% at March 31, 1996.  Other real estate owned was $399,000 at March 31,
1997 compared to $437,000 at December 31, 1996.  Of the total nonaccrual loans,
$2,957,000 represented loans RSC has made to facilitate the sale of former
partnerships that have loan to value ratios higher than would normally be made
by the Bank.  While the Company has placed these loans on non-accrual, RSC
continues to receive principal and interest payments based on the terms of
individual notes.  Without the non-accrual loans made by RSC, the Bank's loan
portfolio at March 31, 1997 had $485,000 in non-accrual loans or .48% of total
loans.

</TABLE>

     At March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, the Company's recorded 
investment in loans for which an impairment has been recognized totaled 
$282,000 and $242,000, respectively.  These amounts were evaluated for 
impairment using the fair value of collateral.  At March 31, 1997, the 
related SFAS No. 114 allowance for credit losses considered impaired was 
$78,000. At December 31, 1996, included in total impaired loans were $113,000 
of impaired loans for which the related SFAS No. 114 allowance was $89,000 as 
well as $129,000 of impaired loans, that as a result of writedown or the fair 
value of the collateral, did not have a SFAS No. 114 allowance. The Company 
uses the cash basis method of income recognition for impaired loans.  For the 
three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, the Company did not recognize any 
income on such loans.

     ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES

     The allowance for credit losses reflects management's judgment as to the
level which is considered adequate to absorb potential losses inherent in the
loan portfolio.  This allowance is increased by provisions charged to expense
and reduced by loan charge-offs net of recoveries. Management determines an
appropriate provision based on information currently available to analyze credit
loss potential, including: (a) the loan portfolio growth in the period, (b) a
comprehensive grading and review of new and existing loans outstanding, (c)
actual previous charge-offs, and (d) changes in economic conditions. 

     The allowance for credit losses totaled $1,699,000 or 1.68% of total loans
at March 31, 1997, compared to $1,615,000 or 1.58% at December 31, 1996.  The
increase is the result of recoveries totaling $90,000 during the first quarter
while charge-offs totaled only $6,000. No additional provision was deemed
necessary during the quarter ending March 31, 1997.  It is the policy of
management to maintain the allowance for credit losses at a level adequate for
known and 

                                     21

<PAGE>

future risks inherent in the loan portfolio.  Based on information currently 
available to analyze credit loss potential, including economic factors, 
overall credit quality, historical delinquency and a history of actual 
charge-offs, management believes that the credit loss provision and allowance 
is adequate.  However, no prediction of the ultimate level of loans 
charged-off in future years can be made with any certainty. 

     Following is a table presenting the activity within the Company's 
provision for credit losses for the period between December 31, 1996 and 
March 31, 1997.

     FUNDING SOURCES

     Deposits represent the Bank's principal source of funds for investment. 
Deposits are primarily core deposits in that they are demand, savings, and time
deposits generated from local businesses and individuals.  These sources are
considered to be relatively more stable, long-term deposit relationships thereby
enhancing steady growth of the deposit base without major fluctuations in
overall deposit balances.  In order to assist in meeting its funding needs the
Bank maintains fed funds lines with correspondent banks in addition to using its
investment portfolio to raise funds through repurchase agreements.  In addition,
the Bank may, from time to time, obtain additional deposits through the use of
brokered time deposits.  As of March 31, 1997, the Bank held no brokered time
deposits and had no borrowings from correspondent banks against its fed funds
lines. 


     The following table presents the composition of the deposit mix for the 
period ending March 31, 1997, and December 31, 1996, respectively.

     LIQUIDITY

     Liquidity management refers to the Bank's ability to provide funds on an
ongoing basis to meet fluctuations in deposit levels as well as the credit needs
and requirements of its clients.  Both assets and liabilities contribute to the
Bank's liquidity position.  Federal funds lines, short-term investments and
securities, and loan repayments contribute to liquidity, along with deposit
increases, while loan funding and deposit withdrawals decrease liquidity.  The
Bank assesses the likelihood of projected funding requirements by reviewing
historical funding patterns, current and forecasted economic conditions and
individual client funding needs.  The Bank maintains lines of credit with two
correspondent banks for up to $9,000,000 available on a short-term basis. 
Additionally, the Bank generally maintains a portfolio of SBA loans either
available for sale or in its portfolio that could be sold should additional
liquidity be required.

     INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY 

     Interest rate sensitivity is a measure of the exposure to fluctuations in
the Bank's future earnings caused by fluctuations in interest rates.  Generally,
if assets and liabilities do not reprice simultaneously and in equal volumes,
the potential for such exposure exists.  It is management's objective to
maintain stability in the net interest margin in times of fluctuating interest
rates by maintaining an appropriate mix of interest sensitive assets and
liabilities.  To achieve this goal, the

                                      23

<PAGE>

Bank prices the majority of its interest bearing liabilities at variable 
rates.  At the same time, the majority of its interest earning assets are 
also priced at variable rates, the majority of which float with the Prime 
Rate.  This pricing structure tends to stabilize the net interest margin 
percentage earned by the Bank.

The following table sets forth the interest rate sensitivity and repricing
schedule of the Company's interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities, the interest rate sensitivity gap, the cumulative interest rate
sensitivity gap, and the cumulative interest rate sensitivity gap ratio.

     The above table indicates the time periods in which interest-earning assets
and interest-bearing liabilities will mature or reprice in accordance with their
contractual terms.  The table does not necessarily indicate the impact of
general interest rate movements on the net interest margin since the repricing
of various categories of assets and liabilities is subject to competitive
pressures. Additionally, this table does not take into consideration changing
balances in forward periods as a result of normal amortization, principle
paydowns, changes in deposit mix or other such movements of funds as a result of
changing interest rate environments.


     CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the FDIC have
adopted risk-based capital guidelines for evaluating the capital adequacy of
bank holding companies and banks.  The guidelines are designed to make capital
requirements sensitive to differences in risk profiles among banking
organizations, to take into account off-balance sheet exposures and to aid in
making the definition of bank capital uniform internationally.  Under the
guidelines, the Company and the Bank are required to maintain capital equal to
at least 8.0% of its assets and commitments to extend credit, weighted by risk,
of which at least 4.0%, must consist primarily of common equity (including
retained earnings) and the remainder may consist of subordinated debt,
cumulative preferred stock, or a limited amount of loan loss reserves.  Assets,
commitments to extend credit and off-balance sheet items are categorized
according to risk and certain assets considered to present less risk than other
permit maintenance of capital at less than the 8% ratio.

                                  24

<PAGE>

     The guidelines establish two categories of qualifying capital: Tier 1
capital comprising core capital elements and Tier 2 comprising supplementary
capital requirements.  At least one-half of the required capital must be
maintained in the form of Tier 1 capital.  Tier 1 capital includes common
shareholder's equity and qualifying perpetual preferred stock less intangible
assets and certain other adjustments.    However, no more than 25% of the
Company's total Tier 1 capital may consist of perpetual preferred stock.  The
definition of Tier 1 capital for the Bank is the same, except that perpetual
preferred stock may be included only if it is noncumulative.  Tier 2 capital
includes, among other items, limited life (and in the case of banks, cumulative)
preferred stock, mandatory convertible securities, subordinated debt and a
limited amount of reserves for credit losses.

     The Board of Governors also adopted a 3.0% minimum leverage ratio for
banking organizations as a supplement to the risk-weighted capital guidelines.
The leverage ratio is generally calculated using Tier 1 capital (as defined
under risk-based capital guidelines) divided by quarterly average net total
assets (excluding intangible assets and certain other adjustments).

     The Board of Governors emphasized that the leverage ratio constitutes a
minimum requirement for well-run banking organizations having diversified risk.
Banking organizations experiencing or anticipating significant growth, as well
as those organizations which do not exhibit the characteristics of a strong,
well-run banking organization above, will be required to maintain minimum
capital ranging generally from 100 to 200 basis points in excess of the leverage
ratio.  The FDIC adopted a substantially similar leverage ratio for state non-
member banks.

     The table below presents the Company's and the Bank's risk-based and 
leverage capital ratios as of March 31, 1997.

     As indicated in the table above, at  March 31, 1997, the Company's capital
ratios exceed the minimum capital levels required by current federal regulations
and the "Well Capitalized" standards of the prompt corrective action provision
of the FDICIA described below.

matters, substantially revised banking regulations and established a framework
for determination of capital adequacy of financial institutions.  Under the
FDICIA, financial institutions are placed into one of five capital adequacy
categories as follows: (1) "Well capitalized" - consisting of institutions with
a total risk-based capital ratio of 10% or greater, a Tier 1 risk-based capital
ratio of 6% or greater, and a leverage ratio of 5% or greater, and the
institution is not subject to an order, written agreement, capital directive or
prompt corrective action directive; (2) "Adequately capitalized" - consisting of
institutions with a total risk-based capital ratio of 8% or greater, a Tier 1
risk-based capital ratio of 4% or greater and a leverage ratio of 4% or greater,
and the institution does not meet the definition of a "well capitalized"
institution; (3) "Undercapitalized" - consisting of institutions with a total
risk-based capital ratio less than 8%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of less
than 4%, or a leverage ratio of less than 4%; (4) "Significantly
undercapitalized" - consisting of institutions with a total risk-based capital
ratio of less than 6%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of less than 3%, or a
leverage ratio of less than 3%; (5) "Critically undercapitalized" - consisting
of an institution with a ratio of tangible equity to total assets that is equal
to or less than 2%.

     Financial institutions classified as undercapitalized or below are subject
to various limitations including, among other matters, certain supervisory
actions by bank regulatory authorities and restrictions related to (i) growth of
assets, (ii) payment of interest on subordinated indebtedness, (iii) payment of
dividends or other capital distributions, and (iv) payment of management fees to
a parent holding company.  The FDICIA requires the bank regulatory authorities
to initiate corrective action regarding financial institutions which fail to
meet minimum capital requirements.  Such action may be taken in order to, among
other matters, augment capital and reduce total assets.  Critically
undercapitalized financial institutions may also be subject to appointment of a
receiver or conservator unless the financial institution submits an adequate
capitalization plan.
