PART I

ITEM 1.    BUSINESS

General

1st Pacific Bancorp (the "Company", "we", "our", or "us") is a California corporation incorporated on August 4, 2006 and is registered
with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as a bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. 1st Pacific Bank of California (the
"Bank") is a wholly-owned bank subsidiary of the Company and was incorporated in California on April 17, 2000. The Bank is a California corporation licensed to operate as a commercial bank
under the California Banking Law by the California Department of Financial Institutions (the "DFI"). In accordance with the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
(the "FDIC") insures the deposits of the Bank. The Bank is a member of the Federal Reserve System.

A
reorganization to form a holding company was completed on January 16, 2007, whereby all outstanding shares of the Bank were converted into an equal number of shares of the
Company. Prior to the reorganization, the Company had minimal activity, which was primarily related to preparing for the reorganization. At present, the Company does not engage in any material
business activities other than ownership of the Bank. References to the Company are references to 1st Pacific Bancorp (including the Bank), except for periods prior to
January 16, 2007, in which case, references to the Company are to the Bank.

After
completing its initial public offering, the Company commenced operations on November 17, 2000, from a branch office in the Golden Triangle area of San Diego and a branch
office in the Tri-Cities area of North San Diego County ("North County"). In the following years, the Company opened additional branch offices, one in the Mission Valley area of San Diego,
one in the Inland North County area of San Diego and one in El Cajon.

On
July 1, 2007, the Company completed the acquisition of Landmark National Bank ("Landmark"), with assets of approximately $109 million. Landmark's two established offices
became part of the Bank's branch network; one in Solana Beach and one in downtown La Jolla. As a result of the acquisition, the financial results found herein reflect the combined entity beginning
July 2, 2007.

During
the third quarter of 2007, the Company moved its corporate headquarters location within the University Town Center area of San Diego and relocated the Golden Triangle branch
office to the same facility. In February 2008, the Company opened a limited service branch office in downtown San Diego.

The
Company is organized as a single operating unit with eight branch offices. The Company's primary source of revenue is interest earned on loans it provides to customers. The Company
funds its lending activities primarily through providing deposit products and services to customers. The Company's customers are predominately small and medium-sized businesses and professionals in
San Diego County. As of December 31, 2007, the Company has grown to approximately $414.6 million in total assets.

Strategy

The Company's mission statement is: "To build relationships that create significant results for our customers, employees, shareholders and community." The Company
believes that to be successful in its competitive environment, it needs to attract and retain great people (e.g. directors and employees) to foster and grow loyal client relationships, which
build enduring franchise value. This strategy is synopsized by the Company's corporate motto:People.Relationships.Results.The Company's vision of

1

---



being
a leading provider of commercial banking services in its markets is accentuated by three goals, to become:

A
compelling place to workthe Company will demonstrate a high performance and high-energy culture where the corporate values are embraced and lived out by "Gung
Ho" employees.

A
compelling place to bankclients will experience perceptive listening, active responses, and significant results that add value to their businesses and will become "Raving
Fan" customers.

A
compelling place to investshareholders will receive outstanding shareholder value and the pride of participating in "The Company" in the San Diego region.

The
Company's strategy during its earlyde novoyears was focused on achieving growth and market share. As the Company has matured, the
strategy has progressively shifted to achieve more significant profitability. The Company intends to grow within its current equity base for the immediate future, utilizing retained earnings and debt
instruments, as needed, to bolster capital ratios and minimize shareholder dilution. The Company intends to communicate regularly with its shareholders and increase awareness among the brokerage
community to promote stock liquidity and market value. To be successful, the Company emphasizes systems which attract, retain, reward and develop employees, including strategies that encourage
employees to think like owners, such as profit sharing plans and employee stock ownership initiatives. To foster long term, profitable customer relationships, the Company utilizes customer surveys to
promote exceptional customer service and customer profitability measurement tools to identify and strengthen the most beneficial relationships; the Company's franchise value is ultimately rooted in
its customer base.

Services Offered

General.The primary operational focus of the Company is to meet the financial services needs of its target
marketsmall and medium-sized businesses and professionalswithin its service area. Therefore, the Company offers a full line of loan and deposit products and certain related
financial services designed to cater to this target market. As a community bank, the Company's personnel are actively involved in the community and an emphasis is placed on personalized "relationship
banking," where the banking relationship is predicated on the banker's familiarity with the customer and its business.

Lending Services.As discussed in further detail below, the Company's lending activities focus on commercial and residential
real estate loans, construction loans, commercial business loans and loans made or guaranteed through the Small Business Administration (the "SBA") loan program responsive to the target market's
needs. The Company believes these loan products take advantage of the local economy and the consolidation of banking institutions in San Diego County and contiguous areas, which have created
opportunities for an independent, service-oriented bank.

Real Estate Loans.The Company offers real estate loans for construction and term financing. Construction loans include loans
for single-family homes (both owner occupied and speculative), small residential tract developments, commercial projects (such as multi-family housing, industrial, office and retail centers) and early
stage acquisition and development loans for land and lots. Permanent financing is offered for commercial properties and single-family residential properties.

Commercial Loans.The Company offers the following types of commercial loans:

SBA Loan Programs.The SBA, headquartered in Washington, D.C., and operating in 10 regions throughout the United States,
offers financial assistance to eligible small businesses in the form of partial government guarantees on loans made to such businesses by qualified participating lenders under the SBA's guaranteed
loan program (the "7(a) program"). In order to be eligible for the 7(a) program, a business generally must be operated for profit and, depending on the industry of the potential
borrower, must fall within specified limitations on numbers of employees or annual revenues. The Company is an SBA qualified participating lender and, in 2002, was awarded SBA's "Preferred Lender"
status. This Preferred Lender status allows the Company to make loans under SBA programs without prior SBA approval.

SBA
7(a) program loans are SBA-guaranteed loans made by approved financial institutions. For term loans, the loan guarantees vary from 75% to 85% of the loan balance,
depending
on the size of the loan, and terms vary from five to twenty-five years depending on the purpose of the loan. Revolving loans are limited to a maximum term of seven years and the loan
guarantee may not exceed 50% of the loan amount. The aggregate balance of the SBA guaranteed portions of all outstanding SBA loans to one borrower and its affiliates may not exceed
$2.0 million.

SBA
7(a) program loans are typically written at variable rates of interest, which rates are generally limited by SBA guidelines. These guidelines limit the maximum rate for loans with
maturities less than seven years to 225 basis points over the lowest prime-lending rate published in The Wall Street Journal ("WSJ Prime"). The maximum rate for loans with maturities in excess of
seven years is 275 basis points over the WSJ Prime. Typically rates are adjusted on the first day of each calendar quarter.

In
addition to participation in the SBA's 7(a) programs, the Company also offers loans primarily for real estate-related projects under Section 504 of the Small Business
Administration Act of 1953 ("504 loans"), such as for purchasing land and improvements, construction, modernizing or converting existing facilities and purchasing certain machinery and
equipment. Under the 504 loan program, the borrower must provide at least 10% of the equity for the financing. Under a typical 504 loan, the Company will make a loan for 50% of the
principal amount, which is secured by, among other assets, a first priority mortgage on the underlying property. The Company will provide the remaining amount of the funds as a short-term
loan with a maturity from 90 days up to one year (the "Bridge Loan"). The borrower repays the Bridge Loan with the proceeds received from a bond issuance by a certified development
companya not-for-profit corporation established to create and issue debt securities that are fully guaranteed by the SBA. The debt securities are sold to
institutional investors. Under the 504 loan program, SBA debentures may be issued for up to $4.0 million and, if a public policy is met, up to $8.0 million for manufacturers.

Like
many other government programs, the lending programs of the SBA are federal government programs authorized by legislation and uncertainties surround the SBA programs due to reliance
on the United States Congress and the federal budgeting process for each fiscal year. There can be no assurance that the SBA lending program will continue in its present manner.

Consumer Loans.The Company loans for personal, family or household purposes. These loans represent a small portion of the
Company's overall loan portfolio. However, these loans are important in terms of servicing customer needs in the market area of the Company's offices and ancillary lending needs of the Company's
primary target market.

Deposit Products and Services.The Company's expertise is developing custom-tailored financial solutions for individuals,
businesses and professionals desiring personalized banking services. The Company offers a wide range of accounts and services, designed around the needs and preferences of

our
customers. Account officers consult with the various specialists in the Company to satisfy the customer's immediate and long-range deposit and borrowing needs.

Bank Deposits.The Company offers personal and business checking, money market, savings and certificates of deposit accounts
which can all be tied into a one-statement package. The types and terms of such accounts are offered on a competitive basis. The interest rates payable by the Company on the various types
of interest-bearing deposit accounts are a function of a number of factors, including rates paid by the Company's competitors, the need for liquidity for lending operations and the changes in monetary
policy as announced by the Federal Open Market Committee.

Cash Management Services.The Company specializes in meeting the unique banking needs of business owners. The Company
accomplishes this by having developed a comprehensive set of cash management tools and services. Some of the cash management products the Company offers are online banking, automated clearing house
("ACH") origination, wire transfers, daily sweep products, lockbox processing and account transfers / management. The Company also has a wire transfer system with advanced features for business
customers that, among other things, provides immediate confirmation of wire receipts. In addition to these products, the Company offers courier service to collect deposits from San
Diego-area customers and has a correspondent relationship with another bank allowing the Company to accept deposits at thousands of third party locations for non-local
depository needs.

During
the fourth quarter of 2006, the Company introduced a new service, Remote Deposit Capture. This service allows the customer to create and submit a deposit from its place of
business. More recently, in March 2007, the Company introduced BusinessPro Deposit Link. This additional feature was added to the Company's online banking program for businesses. Deposit Link allows
customers to make deposits into their checking accounts from their offices. Checks can be scanned, transmitted and deposited to their business checking accounts using office computers. This service is
especially valuable to customers who frequently make deposits by reducing their courier and/or bank visit expenses. As of February 2008, twenty four customers have signed up for the Deposit Link
Service.

The
Company believes that these services, as well as the other customer convenience services that it offers, allow the Company to offer a competitive and customized package of services
to its customers.

Internet Banking.The Company utilizes technology and the Internet as a secondary means for servicing customers. Through
"Internet banking" customers may conduct their banking business remotely from any location with an Internet connection. Business customers are able to access cash management products, which allow
users to, among other things, originate wire transfers and ACH transactions. In addition, business customers can have multiple users access accounts via the website, and each user can have separately
defined user capabilities. Despite the capabilities to access these electronic banking services, customers always have the opportunity to discuss specific banking needs with a knowledgeable service
representative available in one of the Company's offices.

Marketing Focus

The Company advertises and markets its services primarily to targeted customers in its primary service area. The Company focuses on meeting the needs of its
targeted customers, as well as being knowledgeable about its competition. Among other things, the Company's key focus is to establish and build strong financial relationships with its customers using
a trusted advisor approach. The Company communicates to customers and prospects through the direct business development sales force and media advertising.

The
Company also established an Advisory Board in November 2002, which consists of many local community and business leaders. In addition to their roles as advisors to the Company, the
Advisory Board members represent the Company at events with the objective of increasing the Company's visibility. Furthermore, members of the Company's Board of Directors are highly visible and active
in

the
San Diego community. Over time, the Company expects to continue to benefit from involvement in these civic and community activities and the positive association it provides to the Company.
On-going public relations efforts emphasize the Company's local ownership, relationship-based philosophy, customer service and commitment to its community.

Service Area

The Company considers its primary market to be the greater San Diego County region. All of the Company's offices are in this area. The Company's executive office
and its original head office are both located in the Golden Triangle area of San Diego, which is the hub of the "North City" business center. The Company's second original branch office is located in
the Tri-Cities area of North County (Oceanside, Carlsbad and Vista). The Company's third branch office was opened in 2003 in the Mission Valley area of San Diego. In 2005, the Company
opened its fourth branch office in the Inland North County Area of San Diego along the Interstate 15 corridor. A fifth branch office was opened in April 2006 in the city of El Cajon in San Diego's
East County Area. Effective July 1, 2007, the Company completed its acquisition of Landmark and added two branch offices in Solana Beach and La Jolla to the Company's branch network. In
February 2008, the Company opened a limited service branch office in downtown San Diego.

San
Diego has evolved from a small military town into one of the nation's most desirable areas to live. From the beaches to the mountains and desert beyond, the region's quality of life,
moderate climate, diversified economy and employment base have helped San Diego grow to a county of more than three million people.

Additionally,
the region has a rapidly growing professional, business and information services sector accounting for approximately 37.6% of the total jobs in the County according to the
latest publication by the Center for Continuing Study of the California Economy. The report projects that this sector will be the fastest growing segment in San Diego County with more than 71,600 new
jobs created by 2015, accounting for roughly 70% of the total economic growth during that time period.

Some
key industries in San Diego County include; agriculture, defense, high technology, international trade, manufacturing and biotechnology. At the end of the fourth quarter 2007, the
unemployment rate for San Diego rose to 4.8%. Currently San Diego's unemployment rate is 0.8% lower than California's rate of 5.6% and is 0.3% higher than the overall United States rate of 4.5%.

San
Diego County's economy remains vulnerable despite a greater level of diversity and less reliance upon defense related industries than in previous decades. Many local businesses are
still feeling the effects of the deployment of thousands of military personnel. The loss of military spending power combined with constrained employment growth, continued housing demand from net
in-migration and the region's high cost of doing business has impacted the local economy. As of November 2007, total employment for San Diego County was estimated at 1.47 million
employees as the population reached slightly above three million.

Although
the county has experienced significant growth in recent years, the Company cannot guarantee that future growth will occur and that currently unforeseen economic circumstances,
such as a slow-down in one or more of the region's major industries or employers, or a change in the general economy of the region, the state or the nation, or a change in the Company's
competition, as discussed below, would not reverse or slow-down these growth trends and pose new challenges to the success of the Company. Historically economic trends tend to run in
cycles of varying duration and the Company will have no ability to control such cycles. The ongoing success of the Company depends in large part on the ability of the Company to adapt to such changes,
utilizing such management, capital resources and business acumen as is available to the Company at such time.

Risk Management

As a fundamental part of its business, the Company has developed risk management practices to identify, measure, monitor and control the risks involved in its
various products and lines of business. While the Company's business is dependent on taking risks, appropriate management of these business risks is critical to its success. The Company has a risk
management program to evaluate a broad spectrum of risks, including, but not limited to, credit risk, market risk, liquidity risk, operational risk,
legal risk and reputational risk. In assessing its risk management practices across the Company's functional areas (e.g. lending, branch operations, informational technology, asset and
liability management, and administration), management considers the following elements of a sound risk management system in each critical area: the level of board and senior management oversight; the
adequacy of policies, procedures and limits; the adequacy of internal controls; the results of internal monitoring and / or independent reviews and audits; and the experience of its personnel.

In
recent years, the Company has experienced strong growth in loans, deposits and total assets. Increased levels of staffing, new office space, and increased utilization of vendor
services, such as data processing and professional services, have facilitated this growth. While the Company believes it has a sound risk management program that will address its future growth plans,
the Company's ability to manage future growth will depend on, among other things, its ability to manage associated risks, including: monitoring operations, controlling funding costs and operating
expenses, maintaining positive customer relations, and hiring and retaining qualified personnel.

Competition

The banking business in California, generally, and specifically in the greater San Diego and adjacent areas, is highly competitive with respect to both loans and
deposits. The business is dominated by a relatively small number of major banks, most of which have many offices operating over wide geographic areas. Many of the major commercial banks and their
affiliates, including those headquartered outside California, offer certain services (such as trust and securities brokerage services) that are not offered directly by the Company. By virtue of their
greater total capitalization, such banks have substantially higher lending limits than the Company and substantially larger advertising and promotional budgets. In addition, the Company faces
competition from other community banks headquartered in the greater San Diego area that are also serving individuals and businesses.

In
recent years, a large number of mergers and consolidations of both banks and savings entities have occurred in California and throughout the nation. A substantial number of the larger
banks have been involved in major mergers. The result is that these institutions generally have centralized and standardized services and some lending functions and decisions are sent outside the
area. Acquisitions by major interstate bank holding companies and other large acquirers in the greater San Diego vicinity have resulted in numerous branch consolidations in the area. Many
long-standing relationships have been disrupted or severed, while many other customers are now subjected to less personalized and more "standardized" services.

As
a result of this merger and consolidation activity, since 2000, community banking in San Diego has undergone a renaissance, with close to 20 new orde
novobanks opening. Despite the increased competition from newer community banks, larger institutions continue to control the majority of the deposit market share in the region
and the Company believes that this continues to present the Company with the opportunity to attract customers who are dissatisfied with the level of service provided by larger banks. Additionally, the
Company expects that merger activity will continue to provide opportunities in its market area.

In
order to compete with the major financial institutions in the Company's primary service areas, the Company uses to the fullest extent possible the contacts of its organizers,
founders, advisors, directors and officers with residents and businesses in the Company's primary service areas. The

6

Company
emphasizes specialized services, local promotional activity and personal contacts by the Company's officers, directors and other employees. Programs have been developed to specifically address
the needs of small to medium-sized businesses, professional businesses, as well as business owners and their employees. As necessary, the Company can arrange for loans that are too large, due to legal
lending limits, for the Company to make by itself, to be made on a participation basis with other financial institutions and intermediaries.

Subsidiaries

The Bank is a subsidiary of our Company.

On
June 28, 2007, the Company formed a Delaware trust affiliate, FPBN Trust I (the "Trust") for the purpose of issuing trust preferred securities. The Company accounts for its
investment in the Trust using the equity method under which the subsidiaries net earnings are recognized in the Company's statement of income, pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board
Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46"), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51." Pursuant to FIN 46, the Trust is not consolidated into the
Company's financial statements. The Federal Reserve Board has ruled that subordinated notes payable to unconsolidated special purpose entities ("SPE's") such as the Trust, net of the bank holding
company's investment in the SPE, qualify as Tier 1 Capital, subject to certain limits.

Employees

Currently, the Company employs Messrs. A. Vincent Siciliano, James H. Burgess, Larry A. Prosi, and Richard H. Revier, under written employment agreements.
See "Item 10, Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance," below. On December 31, 2007, the Company employed 101 persons full-time and 5 persons
part-time. None of the Company's employees are represented by any collective bargaining agreements. The Company considers its relations with employees to be excellent.

SUPERVISION AND REGULATION

The following discussion of statutes and regulations affecting banks and bank holding companies is only a summary and does not purport to
be complete. This discussion is qualified in its entirety by reference to such statutes and regulations. No assurance can be given that such statutes and regulations will not change in the future.
Moreover, any changes may have a material effect on the business of the Company.

General

Bank Holding Company Regulation.The Company is a bank holding company within the meaning of the Bank
Holding Company Act, and is registered as such with and subject to the supervision of the Federal Reserve Board ("FRB"). Generally, a bank holding company is required to obtain the approval of the FRB
before it may acquire all or substantially all of the assets of any bank, or ownership or control of the voting shares of any bank if, after giving effect to such acquisition of shares, the bank
holding company would own or control more than 5% of the voting shares of such bank. The FRB's approval is also required for the merger or consolidation of bank holding companies. The Company is
required to file reports with the FRB and provide such additional information as the FRB may require. The FRB also has the authority to examine the Company and each of its subsidiaries, as well as any
arrangements between it and any of its subsidiaries, with the cost of any such examination to be borne by the Company.

Banking
subsidiaries of bank holding companies are also subject to certain restrictions imposed by federal law in dealings with their holding companies and other affiliates. Subject to
certain restrictions

7

---



set
forth in the Federal Reserve Act, a bank can loan or extend credit to an affiliate, purchase or invest in the securities of an affiliate, purchase assets from an affiliate, or issue a guarantee,
acceptance, or letter of credit on behalf of an affiliate; provided that the aggregate amount of the above transactions of a bank and its subsidiaries does not exceed 10% of the capital stock and
surplus of the bank on a per affiliate basis or 20% of the capital stock and surplus of the bank on an aggregate affiliate basis. In addition, such transactions must be on terms and conditions that
are consistent with safe and sound banking practices and, in particular, a bank and its subsidiaries generally may not purchase from an affiliate a low-quality asset, as that term is
defined in the Federal Reserve Act. Such restrictions also prevent a bank holding company and its other affiliates from borrowing from a banking subsidiary of the bank holding company unless the loans
are secured by marketable collateral of designated amounts. Further, the Company and the Bank are prohibited from engaging in certain tie-in arrangements in connection with any extension
of credit, sale or lease of property or furnishing of services.

Under
the FRB's regulations, a bank holding company is required to serve as a source of financial and managerial strength to its subsidiary banks and may not conduct its operations in an
unsafe and unsound manner. In addition, it is the FRB's policy that in serving as a source of strength to its subsidiary banks, a bank holding company should stand ready to use available resources to
provide adequate capital funds to its subsidiary banks during periods of financial stress or adversity and should maintain the financial flexibility and capital-raising capacity to obtain additional
resources for assisting its subsidiary banks. A bank holding company's failure to meet it obligations to serve as a source of strength to its subsidiary banks will generally be considered by the FRB
to be an unsafe and unsound banking practice or a violation of the FRB's regulations or both. Under certain conditions, the FRB may conclude that certain actions of a bank holding company, such as
payment of cash dividends, would constitute unsafe and unsound banking practices because they violate the FRB's "source of strength" doctrine.

A
bank holding company is prohibited from engaging in or acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 5% of the voting shares of any company engaged in nonbanking
activities. One of the principal exceptions to this prohibition is for activities found by the FRB to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident
thereto. In making these determinations, the FRB considers whether the performance of such activities by a bank holding company would offer advantages to the public which outweigh possible adverse
effects.

As
a public company, the Company is subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act amends certain parts of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, and is intended to
protect investors by, among other things, improving the reliability of financial reporting, increasing management accountability, and increasing the independence of directors and our external
accountants.

The
Company is subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), which include but are not limited to the filing of
annual, quarterly and other current reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

Banking Regulation.Various requirements and restrictions under federal and state laws affect the
operation of the Company. As a California state-chartered bank, the Company is regulated, supervised and regularly examined by the DFI. In addition, the FRB is the Company's primary federal regulator.
Federal regulations address several areas including loans, deposits, check and item processing, investments, mergers and acquisitions, borrowings, dividends, and the number and locations of branch
offices. Deposits of the Company are insured up to the maximum limits allowed by the FDIC. As a result of this deposit insurance function, the FDIC has certain supervisory authority and powers over
FDIC-insured institutions.

Proposed Legislative and Regulatory Changes

Proposals pending in Congress would, among other things, change lending practices related to loans secured by single-family residences, restrict "predatory" and
"subprime" mortgage activities, forestall foreclosures on single family homes, protect renters of foreclosed properties, license mortgage loan originators, restrict ownership of industrial banks,
enhance the privacy of personal information. Certain of these proposals, if adopted, could significantly change the regulation or operations of banks and the financial services industry. The Company
cannot predict whether any of these proposals will be adopted, and, if adopted, how these proposals will affect us or the Bank.

Federal Reserve Bank Regulation

Each state-chartered bank that is a member of the FRB is referred to as a "state member bank." The Bank, like all other state member banks, subscribes to capital
stock in the FRB of its district (the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco in the case of the Bank) in an amount equal to 6% of its combined capital and surplus (but excluding retained earnings); 3%
must be paid-in and the remaining 3% is on call. The FDIC insures the deposits of the Bank and monitors the Bank in such capacity. The FRB discount window and other services are available
to all depository institutions on an equivalent basis. However, being a state member bank reduces the number of federal supervisors from two to one where a bank is owned by a bank holding company.

Impact of Monetary Policies

Banking is a business that depends on rate differentials. In general, the difference between the interest rate paid by the Company on its deposits and other
borrowings and the interest rate earned by the Company on loans, securities and other interest-earning assets comprises the major source of the Company's earnings. These rates are highly sensitive to
many factors which are beyond the control of the Company and, accordingly, the earnings and growth of the Company are subject to the influence of economic conditions generally, both domestic and
foreign, including inflation, recession, and unemployment; and also to the influence of monetary and fiscal policies of the United States and its agencies, particularly the FRB. The FRB implements
national monetary policy, such as seeking to curb
inflation and combat recession, by its open-market dealings in United States government securities, by adjusting the required level of reserves for financial institutions subject to
reserve requirements, by placing limitations upon savings and time deposit interest rates, and through adjustments to the discount rate applicable to borrowings by banks which are members of the
Federal Reserve System. The actions of the FRB in these areas influence the growth of bank loans, investments, and deposits and also affect interest rates. The nature and timing of any future changes
in such policies and their impact on the Company cannot be predicted; however, the impact on the Company's net interest margin, whether positive or negative, depends on the degree to which the
Company's interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities are rate sensitive. In addition, adverse economic conditions could make a higher provision for loan losses a prudent course and could
cause higher loan charge-offs, thus adversely affecting the Company's net income.

Federal Banking Loan Regulation

On December 6, 2006, the federal bank regulatory agencies released final guidance on "Concentrations in Commercial Real Estate Lending" (the "Final
Guidance"), largely consistent with the proposed guidance they released on January 10, 2006. This guidance defines commercial real estate ("CRE") loans as exposures secured by raw land, land
development and construction (including 1-4 family residential construction), multi-family property, and non-farm nonresidential property where the primary or a
significant source of repayment is derived from rental income associated with the property or the proceeds of the sale, refinancing, or permanent financing of the property. Loans on owner occupied CRE
are generally excluded.

9

---



The
Final Guidance requires that appropriate processes be in place to identify, monitor and control risks associated with real estate lending concentrations. This could include enhanced
strategic planning, CRE underwriting policies, risk management, internal controls, portfolio stress testing and risk exposure limits as well as appropriately designed compensation and incentive
programs. Higher allowances for loan losses and higher capital levels may also be required. The Final Guidance is triggered when CRE loan concentrations exceed either:



Management
of the Company believes that the Final Guidance applies to the Company's CRE lending activities due to its concentration in construction and land development loans. The
Company has always had meaningful exposures to loans secured by commercial real estate due to the nature of its growing markets and the loan needs of both its retail and commercial customers. The
Company believes its long-term experience in CRE lending, underwriting policies, internal controls, and other policies currently in place are generally appropriate in managing its
concentrations as required under the Final Guidance. Furthermore, the Company has adopted additional enhancements to its analysis and review of CRE concentrations consistent with many of the
requirements found in the Final Guidance.

Banking Legislation

From time to time legislation is proposed or enacted which has the effect of increasing the cost of doing business and changing the competitive balance between
banks and other financial and non-financial institutions. These laws have generally had the effect of altering competitive relationships existing among financial institutions, reducing the
historical distinctions between the services offered by banks, savings and loan associations and other financial institutions, and increasing the cost of funds to banks and other depository
institutions. Certain of the potentially significant changes, which have been enacted in the past several years, are discussed below.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act.On July 30, 2002, in the wake of numerous corporate scandals and in an
attempt to protect investors and help restore investor confidence by improving the accuracy and reliability of corporate disclosures made pursuant to the securities laws, President George W.
Bush signed into law the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "Act"). The Act applies to any issuer, such as the Company, that has securities registered under, or is otherwise required to file reports
under, the Exchange Act. The Act imposes new and unprecedented corporate disclosure and governance mandates on public companies, including the Company.

While
certain provisions of the Act, such as accelerated filing deadlines for periodic reports, do not currently apply to the Company, most of the Act's provisions are (or upon
implementation will be) applicable. These provisions include (i) the requirement for certifications of each annual and quarterly report by the issuer's principal executive and financial
officers, with criminal penalties imposed for knowing or willful violations, (ii) the forfeiture of bonuses or profits received by such officers if accounting restatements are required as a
result of misconduct, (iii) disclosure of all material off-balance sheet transactions and relationships that may have a material effect upon the financial status of an issuer and of
any "material correcting adjustments" in the issuer's financials, (iv) disclosure of management's assessment of internal controls and procedures, (v) disclosure as to whether the issuer
has adopted a "code of ethics" for its senior financial officers and, if not, an explanation as to why not, and (vi) prohibitions or limits on loans to officers, directors and other insiders
except to the extent such loans comply with FRB Regulation O. The Act also imposes certain additional regulations, such as

10

---



accelerated
filing periods for reports on Form 4 of changes in the beneficial ownership of officers, directors and principal security holders.

The
Act also imposes increased requirements on auditors and the auditing procedures of their public clients, including prohibitions on the performing of specified non-audit
services contemporaneously with an audit. The Act heightens the requirements for, and the authority of, audit committees. Among other provisions, the Act vests an issuer's audit committee with direct
responsibility for the appointment, compensation and oversight of any registered public accounting firm engaged to perform audit services and with the ability to hire independent outside legal counsel
and other advisors.

The
Act also requires that each audit committee member be entirely "independent" (meaning that no member may be affiliated with the issuer or may accept (or have recently received) any
consulting, advisory or other compensatory fees from the issuer) and be a member of the issuer's board of directors and that the committee include a designated "audit committee financial expert."

Finally,
the Act requires that legal counsel for subject companies report any evidence of material violations of securities laws or breaches of fiduciary duty to or by their client and
imposes federal criminal penalties, including fines and imprisonment of up to 25 years, upon those convicted of defrauding shareholders of public companies.

The
Company has experienced increased costs associated with the increased level of disclosure and compliance required under the Act. Such increased costs are likely to continue and this
diversion of resources may adversely affect the financial condition and operations of the Company.

Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act.The Financial Services Act of 1999, known as the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act
("GLBA"), was signed into law on November 12, 1999 and became effective on March 11, 2000. The GLBA repeals provisions of the Glass-Steagall Act, which had prohibited commercial banks
and
securities firms from affiliating with each other and engaging in each other's businesses. Thus, many of the barriers prohibiting affiliations between commercial banks and securities firms have been
eliminated.

The
Bank Holding Company Act ("BHCA") was amended by GLBA to allow a new "financial holding company" ("FHC") to offer banking, insurance, securities and other financial products to
consumers. Specifically, the GLBA amended Section 4 of the BHCA in order to provide for a framework for the engagement in new financial activities. A bank holding company ("BHC") may elect to
become an FHC if all its subsidiary depository institutions are well capitalized and well managed.

Under
the GLBA, national banks (as well as FDIC-insured state banks, subject to various requirements) are permitted to engage through "financial subsidiaries" in certain
financial activities permissible for affiliates of FHCs. However, to be able to engage in such activities the bank must also be well capitalized and well managed and receive at least a "satisfactory"
rating in its most recent Community Reinvestment Act examination. In addition, if the bank ranks as one of the top 50 largest insured banks in the United States, it must have an issue of outstanding
long-term debt rated in one of the three highest rating categories by an independent rating agency. If the bank falls within the next group of 50, it must either meet the
debt-rating test described above or satisfy a comparable test jointly agreed to by the FRB and the Treasury Department. No debt rating is required for any bank, such as the Bank, not
within the top 100 largest insured banks in the United States.

The
Company cannot be certain of the effect of the foregoing legislation on its business, although there is likely to be consolidation among financial services institutions and increased
competition for the Company.

The Riegle-Neal Act.The Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching
Efficiency Act of 1994 (the "Riegle-Neal Act"), enacted on September 29, 1994, repealed the McFadden Act of 1927, which required states to decide whether national or state banks
could enter their state, and allowed banks to

11

---



open
branches across state lines beginning on June 1, 1997. The Riegle-Neal Act also repealed the 1956 Douglas Amendment to the BHCA, which placed the same requirements on BHCs. The
repeal of the Douglas Amendment now makes it possible for banks to buy out of-state banks in any state and convert them into interstate branches.

The
Riegle-Neal Act provides that interstate branching and merging of existing banks is permitted, provided that the banks are at least "adequately capitalized" and
demonstrate good management. The states are also authorized to enact a law to permit interstate banks to branch de novo.

On
September 28, 1995, the California Interstate Banking and Branching Act of 1995 ("CIBBA") was enacted and signed into law allowing early interstate branching in California.
CIBBA authorizes out-of-state banks to enter California by the acquisition of or merger with a California bank that has been in existence for at least five years, unless the
California bank is in danger of failing or in certain other emergency situations.

Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991.The Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 ("FDICIA") was signed into law on December 19, 1991. FDICIA recapitalized the FDIC's Bank Insurance Fund, granted broad authorization to the FDIC to increase
deposit insurance premium assessments and to borrow from other sources, and continued the expansion of regulatory enforcement powers, along with many other significant changes.

FDICIA
establishes five categories of capitalization: "well capitalized," "adequately capitalized," "undercapitalized," "significantly undercapitalized," and "critically
undercapitalized." If a bank falls in the "undercapitalized," "significantly undercapitalized" or "critically undercapitalized" categories, it will be subject to significant enforcement actions by its
primary federal regulator). See "Enforcement Powers-Corrective Measures for Capital Deficiencies," below.

FDICIA
also grants the regulatory agencies authority to prescribe standards relating to internal controls, credit underwriting, asset growth and compensation, among others, and requires
the regulatory agencies to promulgate regulations prohibiting excessive compensation or fees. Many regulations have been adopted by the regulatory agencies to begin to implement these provisions and
subsequent legislation (the Riegle-Neal Act, discussed above) gives the regulatory agencies the option of prescribing the safety and soundness standards as guidelines rather than
regulations.

As
previously noted, FDICIA places restrictions on certain bank activities authorized under state law. FDICIA generally restricts activities through subsidiaries to those permissible for
national banks, thereby effectively eliminating real estate investment powers. Insurance activities are also limited, except to the extent permissible for national banks.

USA Patriot Act.The United and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to
Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (the "USA Patriot Act") was signed into law on October 26, 2001. The USA Patriot Act requires financial institutions, such as the Company, to
implement and follow procedures designed to help prevent, detect and prosecute international money laundering and the financing of terrorism. Title III of the USA Patriot Act is the International
Money Laundering Abatement and Financial Anti-Terrorism Act of 2001 ("IMLAFATA"). In general, the IMLAFATA amends current law, primarily the Bank Secrecy Act (see "Bank
Secrecy Act," below), to authorize the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the heads of other government agencies, to adopt special measures applicable to banks, bank holding companies and
other financial institutions including enhanced record-keeping and reporting requirements for certain financial transactions that are of primary money laundering concern, due diligence requirements
concerning the beneficial ownership of certain types of accounts, and restrictions or prohibitions on certain types of accounts with foreign financial institutions. Among its other provisions, the
IMLAFATA requires financial institutions to: (i) establish an anti-money laundering program; (ii) establish due diligence policies, procedures and controls with respect to
private banking accounts and correspondent banking accounts

12

---



involving
foreign individuals and certain foreign banks; and (iii) avoid establishing, maintaining, administering or managing correspondent accounts in the United States for, or on behalf of, a
foreign bank that does not have a physical presence in any country. In addition, the IMLAFATA contains a provision encouraging cooperation among financial institutions, regulatory authorities and law
enforcement authorities with respect to individuals, entities and organizations engaged in, or reasonably suspected of engaging in, terrorist acts or money laundering activities. The IMLAFATA expands
the circumstances under which deposited funds may be forfeited and requires covered financial institutions to respond under certain circumstances to requests for information from federal banking
agencies within 120 hours. The IMLAFATA also amends the BHCA and the Bank Merger Act to require the federal banking agencies to consider the effectiveness of a financial institution's
anti-money laundering activities when reviewing an application under these Acts. Among other programs implemented to comply with the USA Patriot Act, the Company implemented a customer
identification program.

Bank Secrecy Act.The Financial Recordkeeping and Reporting of Currency and Foreign Transactions Act
of 1970 (the "Bank Secrecy Act") is a disclosure law that forms the basis of the United States federal government's framework to prevent and detect money laundering and to deter other criminal
enterprises. Following the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, an additional purpose was added to the Bank Secrecy Act: "To assist in the conduct of intelligence or counter-intelligence
activities, including analysis, to protect against international terrorism." Under the Bank Secrecy Act, financial institutions such as the Bank are required to maintain certain records and file
certain reports regarding domestic currency transactions and cross-border transportations of currency. This, in turn, allows law enforcement officials to create a paper trail for tracing illicit funds
that resulted from drug trafficking or other criminal activities. Among other requirements, the Bank Secrecy Act requires financial institutions to report imports and exports of currency in excess of
$10,000 and, in general, all cash transactions in excess of $10,000. The Bank has established a Bank Secrecy Act compliance policy under which, among other precautions, the Bank keeps currency
transaction reports to document cash transactions in excess of $10,000 or in multiples totaling more than $10,000 during one business day, monitors certain potentially suspicious transactions such as
the exchange of a large number of small denomination bills for large denomination bills, and scrutinizes electronic funds transfers for Bank Secrecy Act compliance.

Administrative Actions

Following the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States, President George W. Bush signed an executive order on September 24,
2001 that has a number of consequences for the operations of commercial banks. First, it ordered the freezing of assets of persons on a list included in the order and requires each financial
institution to monitor its deposits to determine whether they should be frozen. Second, it makes it illegal to do business with any of the persons or entities named on the list. This means that the
Bank is obligated to carefully screen its customers on an ongoing basis to assure that the Bank is permitted to do business with them. These types of administrative orders and similar regulations of
bank regulators may increase the cost of operating the Company and it is possible that further such orders will be made although the Company is not aware of any at this time.

Restrictions on Transactions With Insiders

Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act regulate transactions between insured institutions and their "affiliates" and transactions by the Bank that
benefit affiliates. For these purposes, an "affiliate" is a company under common control with the institution. In general, Section 23A imposes limits on the dollar amount of such transactions,
and also requires certain levels of collateral for loans to affiliates. Section 23B generally requires that certain transactions between a bank and its respective affiliates be on terms
substantially the same, or at least as favorable to such

13

---



bank,
as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with or involving other nonaffiliated persons. At this time the Bank does not have any "affiliates" other than the Company.

The
restrictions on loans to directors, executive officers, principal stockholders and their related interests (collectively referred to herein as "insiders") contained in the Federal
Reserve Act and Regulation O promulgated thereunder apply to all federally insured institutions and their subsidiaries and holding companies. These restrictions include limits on loans to one
borrower and conditions that must be met before such a loan can be made. There is also an aggregate limitation on all loans to insiders and their related interests. These loans cannot exceed the
institution's total unimpaired capital and surplus, and the FDIC may determine that a lesser amount is appropriate. Insiders are subject to enforcement actions for knowingly accepting loans in
violation of applicable restrictions.

Deposit Insurance Assessments

The Bank's deposits are currently insured to a maximum of $100,000 per depositor by the FDIC except for certain retirement accounts which are insured up to
$250,000. Each bank is required to pay deposit insurance premiums. The premium amount is based upon a risk classification system established by the FDIC. Banks with higher levels of capital and a low
degree of supervisory concern are assessed lower premiums than banks with lower levels of capital or a higher degree of supervisory concern. Effective January 1, 2007 the FDIC adopted a new
rule for the insurance assessment on deposits. Under the new rule the charge for annual insurance deposit assessments ranges from a minimum of 5 basis points to a maximum of 43 basis points per $100
of insured deposits depending upon the risk assessment category into which the institution falls. Insured institutions are not all allowed to disclose their risk assessment classification and no
assurance can be given as to what the future level of premiums will be.

The
FDIC has authority to increase insurance assessments. A significant increase in insurance premiums could have an adverse effect on the operation expenses and result of operations of
the Company. Management cannot predict what insurance assessments rates will be in the future.

The
FDIC is authorized to terminate a depository institution's deposit insurance upon a finding by the FDIC that the institution's financial condition is unsafe or unsound or that the
institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices or has violated any applicable rule, regulation, order or condition enacted or imposed by the institution's regulatory agency.

The
Company's premium amount for the year ended December 31, 2007, was $222,912 compared to $28,370 for the year ended December 31, 2006.

Risk-Based Capital Guidelines

The federal banking agencies have issued risk-based capital guidelines that include a definition of capital and a framework for calculating risk
weighted assets by assigning assets and off-balance sheet items to broad credit risk categories. A bank's or bank holding company's risk-based capital ratio is calculated by
dividing its qualifying total capital (the numerator of the ratio) by its risk-weighted assets (the denominator of the ratio).

Qualifying
total capital will consist of two types of capital components: "core capital elements" (comprising Tier 1 capital) and "supplementary capital elements" (comprising
Tier 2 capital). The Tier 1 component must represent at least 50% of qualifying total capital and may consist of the following items that are defined as core capital elements:
(i) common stockholders' equity; (ii) qualifying noncumulative perpetual preferred stock (including related surplus); and (iii) minority interest in the equity accounts of
consolidated subsidiaries. The Tier 2 component may consist of the following items: (i) allowance for loan and lease losses (subject to limitations); (ii) perpetual preferred
stock and related surplus (subject to conditions); (iii) hybrid capital instruments (as defined) and

mandatory
convertible debt securities; and (iv) term subordinated debt and intermediate-term preferred stock, including related surplus (subject to limitations).

Assets
and credit equivalent amounts of off-balance sheet items are assigned to one of several broad risk categories, according to the obligor, or, if relevant, the guarantor
or the nature of collateral. The aggregate dollar value of the amount in each category is then multiplied by the risk weight associated with that category. The resulting weighted values from each of
the risk categories are added together, and this sum is the institution's total risk weighted assets that comprise the denominator of the risk-based capital ratio.

A
two-step process determines risk weights for all off-balance sheet items. First, the "credit equivalent amount" of off-balance sheet items is
determined, in most cases by multiplying the off-balance sheet item by a credit conversion factor. Second, the credit equivalent amount is treated like any balance sheet asset and
generally is assigned to the appropriate risk category according to the obligor, or, if relevant, the guarantor or the nature of the collateral.

All
banks and bank holding companies are required to meet a minimum ratio of qualifying total capital to risk weighted assets of 8%, of which at least 4% should be in the form of
Tier 1 capital. The Bank's and Company's total capital and Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets as of December 31, 2007, exceeded these requirements.

The
regulatory agencies have adopted leverage requirements that apply in addition to the risk-based capital requirements. Under these requirements, banks and bank holding
companies are required to maintain core capital of at least 3% of their quarterly average assets (the "Leverage Ratio"). However, an institution may be required to maintain core capital of at least 4%
or 5% or possibly higher, depending upon its activities, risks, rate of growth, and other factors deemed material by regulatory authorities. At December 31, 2007, the Bank's and Company's
leverage ratio was in excess of this requirement.

Enforcement Powers

Federal regulatory agencies have broad and strong enforcement authority reaching a wide range of persons and entities. Some of these provisions include those
which: (i) establish a broad category of persons subject to enforcement under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act; (ii) establish broad authority for the issuance of cease and desist
orders and provide for the issuance of temporary cease and desist orders; (iii) provide for the suspension and removal of wrongdoers on an industry-wide basis; (iv) prohibit
the participation of persons suspended or removed or convicted of a crime involving dishonesty or breach of trust from serving in another insured institution; (v) require regulatory approval of
new directors and senior executive officers in certain cases; (vi) provide protection from retaliation against "whistleblowers" and establish rewards for "whistleblowers" in certain enforcement
actions resulting in the recovery of money; (vii) require the regulators to publicize all final enforcement orders; (viii) require each insured financial institution to provide its
independent auditor with its most recent Report of Condition ("Call Report"); (ix) permit the imposition of significant penalties for failure to file accurate and timely Call Reports; and
(x) provide for the assessment of significant civil money penalties and the imposition of civil and criminal forfeiture and other civil and criminal fines and penalties.

Crime Control Act of 1990.The Crime Control Act of 1990 further strengthened the authority of
federal regulators to enforce capital requirements, increased civil and criminal penalties for financial fraud, and enacted provisions allowing the FDIC to regulate or prohibit certain forms of golden
parachute benefits and indemnification payments to officers and directors of financial institutions.

Corrective Measures for Capital Deficiencies.The prompt corrective action regulations, which were
promulgated to implement certain provisions of FDICIA, also effectively impose capital requirements

15

---



on
national banks, by subjecting banks with less capital to increasingly stringent supervisory actions. For purposes of the prompt corrective action regulations, a bank is "undercapitalized" if it has
a total risk-based capital ratio of less than 8%; a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of less than 4%; or a leverage ratio of less than 4% (or less than 3% if the bank has
received a composite rating of 1 in its most recent examination report and is not experiencing significant growth). A bank is "adequately capitalized" if it has a total risk-based capital
ratio of 8% or higher; a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 4% or higher; a leverage ratio of 4% or higher (3% or higher if the bank was rated a composite 1 in its most recent
examination report and is not experiencing significant growth); and does not meet the criteria for a "well capitalized" bank. A bank is "well capitalized" if it has a total risk-based
capital ratio of 10% or higher; a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6% or higher; a leverage ratio of 5% or higher; and is not subject to any written requirement to meet and
maintain any higher capital level(s). There is no assurance as to what capital ratios the Bank will be able to maintain. As of December 31, 2007, the Bank was "well capitalized."

Under
the provisions of FDICIA and the prompt corrective action regulations, for example, an "undercapitalized" bank is subject to a limit on the interest it may pay on deposits. Also,
an undercapitalized bank cannot make any capital distribution, including paying a dividend (with some exceptions), or pay any management fee (other than compensation to an individual in his or her
capacity as an officer or employee of the bank). Such a bank also must submit a capital restoration plan to its primary federal regulator for approval, restrict total asset growth and obtain
regulatory approval prior to making any acquisition, opening any new branch office or engaging in any new line of business. Additional broad regulatory authority is granted with respect to
"significantly undercapitalized" banks, including forced mergers, ordering new elections for directors, forcing divestiture by its holding company, if any, requiring management changes, and
prohibiting the payment of bonuses to senior management. Additional mandatory and discretionary regulatory actions apply to "significantly undercapitalized" and "critically undercapitalized" banks,
the latter being a bank with capital at or less than 2%. The primary federal regulator may appoint a receiver or conservator for a "critically undercapitalized" bank after 90 days, even if the
bank is still solvent. Failure of a bank to maintain the required capital could result in such bank being declared insolvent and closed.

Community Reinvestment Act and Fair Lending Developments

The Company is subject to certain fair lending requirements and reporting obligations involving home mortgage lending operations and Community Reinvestment Act
("CRA") activities. The CRA generally requires the federal banking agencies to evaluate the record of financial institutions in meeting the credit needs of their local communities, including low and
moderate income neighborhoods. In addition to substantial penalties and corrective measures that may be required for a violation of certain fair lending laws, the federal banking agencies may take
compliance with such laws and CRA into account when regulating and supervising other activities.

The
federal banking agencies have adopted regulations to measure a bank's compliance with its CRA obligations on a performance-based evaluation system. This system bases CRA ratings on
an institution's actual lending service and investment performance rather than the extent to which the institution conducts needs assessments, documents community outreach or complies with other
procedural requirements. In March 1994, the Federal Interagency Task Force on Fair Lending issued a policy statement on discrimination in lending. The policy statement describes the three methods that
federal agencies will use to prove discrimination: overt evidence of discrimination, evidence of disparate treatment and evidence of disparate impact.

Allowance For Loan and Lease Losses

On December 13, 2006, the FRB and the other federal financial institution regulatory agencies issued an interagency policy statement on the allowance for
loan and lease losses (the "Policy

16

---



Statement").
The Policy Statement replaces a 1993 policy statement, which described the responsibilities of the boards of directors and management of banks and savings associations and of examiners
regarding allowance for loan and lease losses. In addition to the Policy Statement, the accounting profession groups periodically provide guidance to the banking industry on allowance for loan and
lease losses ("ALLL") methodology.

The
Policy Statement outlines the responsibility of the institution's management and board of directors regarding their roles in maintaining ALLL at an appropriate level and for
documenting its analysis. Management should evaluate the ALLL reported on the balance sheet as of the end of each quarter, or more frequently if warranted, and charge or credit the provision for loan
and lease losses ("PLLL") to bring the ALLL to an appropriate level as of each evaluation date. The determinations of the amounts of the ALLL and PLLL should be based on management's
current judgments about the credit quality of the loan portfolio, and should consider all known relevant internal and external factors that affect loan collectability as of the evaluation date.

In
carrying out its responsibility for maintaining an appropriate ALLL, management is expected to adopt and adhere to written policies and procedures that, at a minimum, ensure that:
(1) the institution's process for determining an appropriate level for ALLL is based on a comprehensive, well-documented, and consistently applied analysis of its loan portfolio;
(2) the institution has an effective loan review system and controls (including an effective loan classification or credit grading system) that identify, monitor, and address asset quality
problems in an accurate and timely manner; (3) the institution has adequate data capture and reporting systems to supply the information necessary to support and document its estimate of an
appropriate ALLL; (4) the institution evaluates any loss estimation models before they are employed and modifies the models' assumptions, as needed, to ensue that the resulting loss estimates
are consistent with GAAP; (5) the institution promptly charges off loans, or portions of loans, that available information confirms to be uncollectible, and; (6) the institution
periodically validates the ALLL methodology.

The
Policy Statement also provides guidance to examiners in evaluating the credit quality of an institution's loan portfolio, the appropriateness of its ALLL methodology and
documentation, and the appropriateness of the reported ALLL in the institution's regulatory reports. In their review and classification or grading of the loan portfolio, examiners should consider all
significant factors that affect the collectability of the portfolio, including the value of any collateral.

Other Aspects of Federal and State Law

The Company is also subject to federal and state statutory and regulatory provisions covering, among other things, security procedures, technology and information
security and risk assessment, currency and foreign transactions reporting, insider and affiliated party transactions, management interlocks, truth-in-lending, electronic funds
transfers, funds availability, electronic banking, check image processing, financial privacy, truth-in-savings, home mortgage disclosure, and equal credit opportunity. There
are also a variety of federal statutes that restrict the acquisition of control of the Company.

Proposed Legislation

From time to time, various types of federal and state legislation have been proposed that could result in additional regulation of, and restrictions on, the
business of the Company. It cannot be predicted whether any legislation currently being considered will be adopted or how such legislation or any other legislation that might be enacted in the future
would affect the business of the Company.

ITEM 1A.    RISK FACTORS

The following risk factors and all other information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and the documents incorporated by reference in this
Form 10-K should be carefully considered before investing. Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only
ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial also may impair our business. If any of the events described in the following
risks occur, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. In addition, the trading price of our common stock could decline due to any of the
events described in these risks, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

We can issue common stock and preferred stock without your approval, diluting your proportional ownership interest.

Our articles of incorporation authorize us to issue 10,000,000 shares of common stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. As of February 29, 2008, we
had no shares of preferred stock outstanding and had 4,947,763 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. We also have 1,545,976 shares reserved under our stock option plans covering our
directors, officers, employees and consultants. As of February 29, 2008, there were options and warrants outstanding to purchase a total of 1,029,105 shares at a weighted average price of $8.79
per share. Consequently, any shares of common stock or preferred stock that we issue subsequent to your purchase of our stock will dilute your proportional ownership interest in us.

The price of our common stock may decrease, preventing you from selling your shares at a profit.

The market price of our common stock could decrease and prevent you from selling your shares at a profit. The market price of our common stock has fluctuated in
recent years. Fluctuations may occur, among other reasons, due to:



The
trading price of our common stock may continue to fluctuate in response to these factors and others, many of which are beyond our control.

An investment in our common stock is not an insured deposit.

Our common stock is not a bank deposit and, therefore, is not insured against loss by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, commonly referred to as the FDIC,
any other deposit insurance fund
or by any other public or private entity. Investment in our common stock is subject to the same market forces that affect the price of common stock in any company.

We face lending risks, especially with respect to our small- and medium-sized business clients.

The risk of loan defaults or borrowers' inabilities to make scheduled payments on their loans is inherent in the banking business. Moreover, we focus primarily on
lending to small- and medium-sized businesses. These businesses may not have the capital or other resources required to weather significant business downturns or downturns in the markets in which they
compete. Consequently, we may assume

18

---



greater
lending risks than other financial institutions which have a smaller concentration of those types of loans and which tend to make loans to larger businesses. Borrower defaults or borrowers'
inabilities to make scheduled payments may result in losses which may exceed our allowances for loan losses. These risks, if they occur, may require higher than expected loan loss provisions which, in
turn, can materially impair profitability, capital adequacy and overall financial condition.

We are limited in the amount we can lend to any individual borrower.

We are limited in the amount that we can lend to a single borrower. Therefore, the size of the loans which we can offer to potential customers is less than the
size of loans that our competitors with larger lending limits can offer. Legal lending limits also affect our ability to seek relationships with larger and more established businesses. We may not be
able to attract and retain customers seeking loans in excess of their lending limits because we cannot make such loans and we may not be able to find other lenders willing to participate in such loans
with us on favorable terms.

The current changing economic environment poses significant challenges for us.

We are operating in a challenging and uncertain economic environment, including generally uncertain national and local conditions. Financial institutions continue
to be affected by the softening of the real estate market and constrained financial markets. While we have no sub-prime residential loans or securities backed by such loans on our books, we have some
direct exposure to the residential real estate market and we are affected by these events. Continued declines in real estate values, home sales volumes and financial stress on borrowers as a result of
the uncertain economic environment, including job losses, interest rate resets on adjustable rate mortgage loans and other factors could have adverse effects on our borrowers which would adversely
affect our financial condition and results of operations.
This deterioration in economic conditions coupled with a possible national economic recession could drive losses beyond that which is provided for in our allowance for loan losses and result in the
following other consequences:



Declines in Southern California real estate values could materially impair profitability and financial condition.

Approximately 77% of our loans are secured by real estate collateral. Nearly all of the real estate securing these loans is located in Southern California,
primarily in San Diego County. Real estate values are generally affected by factors such as:



19

---





However,
declines in real estate values could significantly reduce the value of the real estate collateral securing our loans, increasing the likelihood of defaults. Moreover, if the
value of real estate collateral declines to a level that is not enough to provide adequate security for the underlying loans, we will need to make additional loan loss provisions which, in turn, will
reduce our profits. Also, if a borrower defaults on a real estate secured loan, we may be forced to foreclose on the property and carry it as a nonearning asset which, in turn, may reduce net interest
income.

Changing interest rates may adversely affect our financial performance.

Our profitability largely depends on the difference between the rates of interest we earn on our loans and investments, and the interest rates we pay on deposits
and other borrowings. This relationship, known as the net interest margin, is subject to fluctuation and is affected by economic and competitive factors which influence interest rates, the volume and
mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and the level of nonperforming assets. Fluctuations in interest rates will affect the demand of customers for our products and
services. We are subject to interest rate risk to the degree that our interest-bearing liabilities reprice or mature more slowly or more rapidly or on a different basis than their interest-earning
assets. Given our current volume and mix of interest-bearing liabilities and interest-earning assets, our interest margin could be expected to increase during times of rising interest rates and
decline during times of falling interest rates. Therefore, significant fluctuations in interest rates may have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

We are limited in our ability to pay cash dividends.

1st Pacific Bancorp depends on dividends from 1st Pacific Bank of California in order to pay cash dividends to its security holders. In addition,
the amount and timing of any dividends is at the discretion of 1st Pacific Bancorp's board of directors.

We are reliant upon brokered deposits and other funding alternatives that increase our cost of funds, adversely affect our operating results and may result in a shortage of
financing sources.

We require liquidity in order to fund our loans. Liquidity is provided by deposits and other sources of financing, such as advances from the Federal Home Loan
Bank of which we are a member, and correspondent banks. At December 31, 2007, 1st Pacific Bank of California had $48 million of funding from brokered deposits. These types of
deposits are generally considered more volatile as customers are more concerned with rates than relationships, and can be more costly than other types of deposits. Significant withdrawals or
non-renewals of such deposits could cause us to rely on funds from correspondent banks or other institutional sources more heavily than at present, at even higher rates of interest, if
those sources continue to be available. The loss of such deposits or the unavailability of alternative sources of funding could also cause us to have a shortage in liquidity so that we might not be
able to meet the demand for loans. Any of these circumstances would have an adverse effect on our profitability, business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Our future growth may be limited if we are not able to raise additional capital.

Banks and bank holding companies are required to conform to regulatory capital adequacy guidelines and maintain their capital at specified percentages of their
assets. These guidelines may limit our ability to grow and could result in banking regulators requiring increased capital levels or reduced loan and other earning asset levels. Therefore, in order to
continue to increase our earning assets and net income, we may, from time to time, need to raise additional capital. Additional capital may not be available or, if it is, that additional capital may
not be available on economically reasonable terms.

20

---



We plan to continue to grow and there are risks associated with growth.

We intend to continue to expand our businesses and operations to increase deposits and loans. Continued growth may present operating and other problems that could
adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our growth may place a strain on our administrative, operational, personnel and financial resources and increase demands
on our systems and controls. Our ability to manage growth successfully will depend on our ability to attract qualified personnel and maintain cost controls and asset quality while attracting
additional loans and deposits on favorable terms, as well as on factors beyond our control, such as economic conditions and interest rate trends. If we grow too quickly and are not able to attract
qualified personnel, control costs and maintain asset quality, this continued rapid growth could materially adversely affect our financial performance.

We compete against larger banks and other institutions.

We compete for loans and deposits with other banks, savings and thrift associations and credit unions located in their service areas, as well as with other
financial services organizations such as brokerage firms, insurance companies and money market mutual funds. These competitors aggressively solicit customers within their market area by advertising
through direct mail, the electronic media and other means. Many competitors have been in business longer, have established customer bases and are substantially larger. These competing financial
institutions offer services, including international banking services that we can only offer through correspondents, if at all. Additionally, these competitors have greater capital resources and,
consequently, higher lending limits. At December 31, 2007, our lending limit per borrower was approximately $7.1 million for unsecured loans and $11.8 million for secured loans.
These limitations were calculated using the California Financial Code, Article 1 for lending limits and are primarily based on the capital level of the Bank. Finally, some competitors are not
subject to the same degree of regulation.

Current banking laws and regulations affect activities.

We are subject to extensive regulation. Supervision, regulation and examination of banks and bank holding companies by regulatory agencies are intended primarily
to protect depositors rather than security holders. These regulatory agencies examine bank holding companies and commercial banks, establish capital and other financial requirements and approve
acquisitions or other changes of control of financial institutions. Our ability to establish new facilities or make acquisitions requires approvals from applicable regulatory bodies. Changes in
legislation and regulations will continue to have a significant impact on the banking industry. Although some of the legislative and regulatory changes may benefit us, others may increase our costs of
doing business and indirectly assist their non-bank competitors who are not subject to similar regulation.

Economic conditions either nationally or locally in areas in which our operations are concentrated may adversely affect our business.

Deterioration in local, regional, national or global economic conditions could cause us to experience a reduction in deposits and new loans, an increase in the
number of borrowers who default on their loans and a reduction in the value of the collateral securing their loans, all of which could adversely affect our performance and financial condition. Unlike
larger banks that are more geographically diversified, we provide banking and financial services locally, specifically, within San Diego County. Therefore, we are particularly vulnerable to adverse
local economic conditions.

21

---



Our financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected if our allowance for loan losses is not sufficient to absorb actual losses or if we are required
to increase our allowance.

Despite our underwriting criteria, we may experience loan delinquencies and losses. In order to absorb losses associated with nonperforming loans, we both
maintain an allowance for loan losses based on, among other things, historical experience, an evaluation of economic conditions, and regular reviews of delinquencies and loan portfolio quality.
Determination of the allowance inherently involves a high degree of subjectivity and requires us to make significant estimates of current credit risks and future trends, all of which may undergo
material changes. We may be required to increase our allowance for loan losses for any of several reasons. Changes in economic conditions affecting borrowers, new information regarding existing loans,
identification of additional problem loans and other factors, both within and outside of either of our control, may require an increase in our allowances. In addition, actual charge-offs
in future periods, if not adequately reserved for, will require additional increases in our allowances for loan losses. Any increases in our allowances for loan losses will result in a decrease in our
net income and, possibly, our capital, and may materially affect our results of operations in the period in which the allowance is increased.

We rely on our management and other key personnel, and the loss of any of them may adversely affect our operations.

We are and will continue to be dependent upon the services of our executive management team. In addition, we will continue to depend on our ability to retain and
recruit key banking officers. The unexpected loss of services of any key management personnel or banking officers could have an adverse effect on our business and financial condition because of their
skills, knowledge of our market, years of industry experience and the difficulty of promptly finding qualified replacement personnel. In the event
that the employment of our executive officers is terminated in the future without cause, under the terms of their respective employment agreements, each of our executive officers would be entitled to
receive continued salary at the rate then in effect for varying periods of time following termination. Such obligations to make severance payments could be triggered in the event we are acquired and
the executive officer is terminated in connection with such acquisition.

Failure to implement new technologies in our operations may adversely affect our growth or profits.

Advances in technology increasingly affect the market for financial services, including banking services and consumer finance services. Our ability to compete
successfully in these markets may depend on the extent to which we are able to exploit such technological changes. However, we may not be able to properly or timely anticipate or implement such
technologies or properly train our staff to use such technologies. Further, the added cost of technology for small banks such as us adversely affects our profitability. Any failure to adapt to new
technologies could adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results.

PART II

ITEM 5.    MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

Market Information

Our common stock began trading on the NASDAQ Global Market ("NASDAQ") under the symbol "FPBN" as of January 3, 2008, and continues to be listed there as of
the date hereof. Before such listing, from January 30, 2007 until January 3, 2008, our common stock was quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board ("OTCBB"). Prior to our bank holding company
reorganization and the Company's stock being quoted on the OTCBB, the Bank's common stock was quoted on the OTCBB under the symbol "FPBS". The OTCBB is a regulated quotation service that displays
real-time quotes, last-sale prices and volume information in over-the-counter equity securities. Unlike the NASDAQ, the OTCBB does not impose listing
standards and does not provide automated trade executions. Historical trading in the Company's and the Bank's stock has not been extensive and such trades cannot be characterized as constituting an
active trading market.

The
following table sets forth, for the fiscal periods indicated, the high and low sales prices or closing bid prices for our common stock for the two most recent fiscal (the Bank's
common stock for periods prior to our bank holding company reorganization). The quotations for the periods in which our common stock traded on the OTC Bulletin Board reflect inter-dealer prices,
without retail
mark-up, markdown or commission and may not represent actual transactions. Trading prices are based on published financial sources.

Stockholders

As of February 29, 2008, the Company had approximately 565 common stock holders of record.

Dividends

To date, 1st Pacific Bancorp has not paid any cash dividends. Payment of stock or cash dividends in the future will depend upon 1st Pacific
Bancorp's earnings and financial condition and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors, as well as 1st Pacific Bancorp's legal ability to pay dividends. It is 1st Pacific
Bancorp's current intention to follow its strategic plan of retaining earnings to increase capital and provide additional basis for growth. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that any cash
dividends will be declared in the foreseeable future.

Further,
under California law, 1st Pacific Bancorp would be prohibited from paying dividends unless: (1) its retained earnings immediately prior to the dividend payment
equals or exceeds the amount of the dividend; or (2) immediately after giving effect to the dividend the sum of 1st Pacific

Bancorp's
assets would be at least equal to 125% of its liabilities, or, if the average of its earnings before taxes on income and before interest expense for the two preceding fiscal years was less
than the average of its interest expense for the two preceding fiscal years, the current assets of 1st Pacific Bancorp would be at least equal to 125% of its current liabilities. The primary
source of funds with which dividends could be paid to shareholders would come from cash dividends received by 1st Pacific Bancorp from the Bank. During 2007, the Bank paid $4,400,000 in cash
dividends to 1st Pacific Bancorp. 1st Pacific Bancorp also must service the debt on its Trust Preferred Securities (which are further discussed in the section below entitled "Liquidity
Management, Interest Rate Risk, Financing and Capital Resources") before declaring or paying any dividends.

The
Bank, as a state-chartered bank, is subject to dividend restrictions set forth in the California Financial Code, and administered by the DFI. Under such restrictions, the Bank may
not pay cash dividends in an amount which exceeds the lesser of the retained earnings of the Bank or the Bank's net income for the last three fiscal years (less the amount of distributions to
shareholders during that period of time). If the above test is not met, cash dividends may only be paid with the prior approval of the DFI, in an amount not exceeding the Bank's net income for its
last fiscal year or the amount of its net income for the current fiscal year. Such restrictions do not apply to stock dividends, which generally require neither the satisfaction of any tests nor the
approval of the DFI. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the DFI finds that the shareholders' equity is not adequate or that the declarations of a dividend would be unsafe or unsound, the DFI may order
the state bank not to pay any dividend. The FRB may also limit dividends paid by the Company.

Equity Compensation Plan Information

See "Item 12, Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder MattersSecurities Authorized for Issuance
Under Equity Compensation Plan," below.

Purchases of Equity Securities by Company and Affiliated Purchases

Neither the Company nor any affiliate of the Company has repurchased any of its common or preferred stock during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year covered by
this report, and no stock repurchase plan has been adopted.

ITEM 7.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

This Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (the "MD&A"), is intended to assist in an understanding
of the significant factors that affected our consolidated financial condition and results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2007 and
2006. This discussion, which refers to the Company on a consolidated basis, should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and corresponding notes thereto,
included in "Item 8Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of this report, as well as the information in the "Forward-Looking Information" and "Item 1ARisk
Factors."

On
January 16, 2007, 1st Pacific Bancorp acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of common stock of 1st Pacific Bank of California which were converted into an equal
number of shares of common stock of 1st Pacific Bancorp. There was no cash involved in the transaction. The reorganization was accounted for as a pooling of interests and the consolidated
financial statements contained herein have been restated to give full effect to this transaction. The presentation of the 2006 financial statements has been changed to show the effect of the bank
holding company reorganization and reflects consolidation of holding company assets of approximately $19,000 and a net loss of approximately $26,000 for the period ended December 31, 2006.

1st Pacific
Bancorp is inactive except for interest expense associated with the junior subordinated debentures (related to the trust preferred securities; discussed further in the
section below entitled "Liquidity Management, Interest Rate Risk, Financing and Capital Resources") and minimal other expenses. Therefore, financial information is primarily reflective of the Bank.

The
MD&A below includes the following sections:

FINANCIAL OVERVIEW

We are a San Diego-based bank holding company for 1st Pacific Bank of California. We provide traditional commercial financial services to small and
medium-sized businesses and individuals in several San Diego County communities. The comparability of our 2007 financial results with our 2006 financial results is affected by the Company's
acquisition of Landmark National Bank ("Landmark"),
which was completed July 1, 2007, and operating results include the operations of Landmark since the date of the acquisition.

Landmark
was acquired for a purchase price of $25.3 million, consisting of approximately 35% cash and 65% stock, whereby approximately 1.0 million shares of common stock
were issued. The fair value of the assets acquired in the acquisition of Landmark was $109.3 million, including $71.3 million of loans, net of the allowance for loan losses, and total
deposits of $81.8 million. A total of $12.0 million was recorded in the transaction as goodwill and other intangible assets. For further discussion on this acquisition, see
Note N, "Merger-Related Activity" of our Consolidated Financial Statements included in "Item 8-Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of this report.

During
2007, the increase in total assets, loans and deposits was primarily a result of the acquisition of Landmark, as total assets increased 30% to $414.6 million from
$318.5 million at year end 2006. In 2007, the Company's total deposits increased $83.5 million to $345.4 million and total loans outstanding increased $74.6 million to
$349.8 million.

For
the year ended December 31, 2007, net income was $2.5 million, a decrease of $0.7 million from $3.2 million in 2006. Although the increased volume of
loans and deposits resulted in net interest income increasing $2.0 million, or 13%, compared to the prior year, net interest margin decreased from 5.61% in 2006 to 4.87% in 2007. Due to the
Bank's asset sensitive structure, its net interest margin benefited from a rising rate environment in 2006, but as rates stabilized from mid-2006 through mid-2007, pricing of
loans and deposits became very competitive, pressuring the Bank's net interest margin. This pressure on net interest margin intensified as the Federal Open Market Committee implemented an easing
policy beginning in September 2007. Management anticipates continued volatility in its net interest margin due to changes in earning asset mix, changes in cost of funds, and changes in the level of
interest rates or the direction of interest rates.

Noninterest
expenses increased significantly, from $10.0 million in 2006 to $13.4 million in 2007, a 34% increase. A significant portion of the increase in noninterest
expenses is associated with the acquisition of Landmark, including the addition of 20 new permanent staff positions and two branch office locations, as well as non-recurring expenses
associated with the acquisition. On a relative basis, total noninterest expenses as a percentage of total average assets increased from 3.56% in 2006 to 3.64% in 2007, an increase of only 2.3%.
Additionally, during the third quarter of 2007, the Company relocated three of its existing six office locations, acquiring additional space for growth and consolidating certain administrative support
areas. All together, nonrecurring expenses totaling $447,000 were incurred in the second half of 2007 associated with the integration of Landmark and the relocation of offices as well as various legal
costs and a non-recoverable robbery loss.

Although
the Landmark acquisition impacted earnings in the second half of the year, we have established a broader platform to support future growth and remain confident the acquisition
will contribute to future profitability as we continue to focus on the financial services needs within our target marketsmall and medium-sized businesses and professionals in the greater
San Diego County area. Asset growth will continue to be focused on real estate secured and commercial
business lending. There are a number of factors that could prevent the Company from achieving its plans, see "Risk Factors."

DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS, LIABILITIES AND STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY; INTEREST RATES AND INTEREST DIFFERENTIAL

During 2007, total assets increased $96 million from $318.5 million at December 31, 2006 to $414.6 million at December 31,
2007. The significant increases noted above in total loans and deposits when compared to the prior year were primarily the result of the acquisition of Landmark.

The
following table presents, for the periods indicated, the distribution of average assets, liabilities and shareholders' equity, as well as the total dollar amounts of interest income
from average interest-earning assets and the resultant yields, and the dollar amounts of interest expense and average interest-bearing liabilities, expressed both in dollars and in rates. Nonaccrual
loans are included in the calculation of the average balances of loans, and interest not accrued is excluded.

The principal component of the Company's revenues is net interest income. Net interest income is the difference (the "interest rate spread") between the interest earned on the Company's
loans and investments and the interest paid on deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities. As the Company is asset sensitive, net interest margin typically improves during a rising rate
environment and declines during a declining rate environment.

For
2007, net interest income was $17.2 million compared to $15.2 million for the year ending December 31, 2006, a 13% increase. This increase in net interest income
for the year ending December 31, 2007 is attributable to the increase in average earning assets, which increased from $272 million in 2006 to $354 million in 2007, a 30% increase;
however, this volume increase was offset by the decrease in the net interest margin from 5.61% to 4.87%, a decline of 74 basis points, or a 13% decline. This decrease in net interest margin compared
to the prior year reflects the cumulative affects of changes in monetary policy, including 100 basis points in increases to the target Federal Funds rate between January and June of 2006 and
cumulative 100 basis point cuts in the target Federal Funds rate in a three-month period beginning in September of 2007. By March 21, 2008, the federal funds target rate fell to 2.25% from
4.25% at December 31, 2007, which has continued to put pressure on the Bank's net interest margin.

To
manage its net interest margin, the Company proactively manages rates on its deposit accounts as they are influenced by the interest rate environment. Additionally, as of
December 31, 2007, approximately 40% of loan assets were priced at their floor interest rate. Despite these factors, net interest margin has been negatively affected by interest rate cuts, the
resulting decrease in total loan yields and the active competition in the local market for deposits. The Company closely monitors and manages its interest rate sensitivity; however, management
anticipates continued volatility in its net interest margin due to changes in the earning asset mix, changes in cost of funds, and changes in the level of interest rates or the direction of interest
rates. For further information regarding the Company's interest rate risk, see the "Liquidity Management, Interest Rate Risk, Financing and Capital Resources" section below.

For
2006, net interest income was $15.2 million compared to $12.6 million for the year ending December 31, 2005, a 21% increase. This increase in net interest income
for the year ending December 31, 2006 primarily relates to the increase in average earning assets, which increased from $226 million in 2005 to $272 million in 2006, a 20%
increase. During 2006, the Company benefited from continued increases in overall interest rates during the first half of the year due to its asset sensitive interest rate risk profile. In the latter
half of the year, asset yields stabilized and competition for deposits continued to drive up interest rates on deposits, including competition from a number of newly chartered banks that have opened
in the local market over the last few years.

During
2006, the Company's average earning assets increased and net interest margin increased from 5.56% to 5.61%. Despite this slight increase in net interest margin
year-over-year, the Company's net interest margin fell to 5.20% in the fourth quarter of 2006 due to rising deposit costs and strong local competition for deposits; asset
yields began to stabilize in the latter half of 2006 as the Federal Reserve halted its tightening monetary policy in June 2006, yet deposit costs continued to reprice upwards with a lagging effect.
During 2005, net interest margin increased from 5.06% to 5.56% as a result of the increasing interest rate environment and the Company's asset sensitive balance sheet, which resulted in asset yields
increasing at a faster rate than the cost of liabilities.

LIQUIDITY MANAGEMENT, INTEREST RATE RISK, FINANCING AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity Management

Balance sheet liquidity, which is a measure of an entity's ability to meet fluctuations in deposit levels and provide for customers' credit needs, is managed
through various funding strategies that reflect the maturity structures of the sources of funds being gathered and the assets being funded.

The
Bank's liquidity results primarily from funds provided by short-term liabilities such as demand deposits, certificates of deposit, and short-term borrowings
and is augmented by payments of principal and interest on loans. Access to short-term investments, primarily Federal funds sold, is the primary means for providing immediate liquidity;
however, the Bank maintains credit facilities with correspondent banks (which can be terminated at any time) and has access to borrowing facilities through its Federal Home Loan Bank membership to aid
in managing its short-term liquidity needs.

The
objective of the Bank's asset/liability strategy is to manage liquidity to ensure the safety and soundness of the Bank's capital base, while maintaining adequate net interest margins
and spreads to provide an appropriate return to shareholders. The Bank actively manages its liquidity position and, during 2007, added language to its policy to describe ongoing practices related to
daily liquidity
management and added the concept of "contingency" sources of liquidity, whereby a certain level of liquidity sources are reserved to be used for unforeseen contingency purposes. Additionally, to allow
for more efficient balance sheet management, the Company changed its policy to reduce "on" balance sheet liquidity ratios and increase the thresholds for non-core deposits, as we consider
brokered and other non-core deposits to be acceptable alternative sources of funding. Non-core deposits are defined as time deposits greater than $100,000 and all brokered
deposits.

In
order to manage the Bank's liquidity, management monitors a number of liquidity ratios, including the level of liquid assets to funding sources (both on and off the balance sheet),
the level of dependence on non-core funding sources, the level of loans to funding sources, the level of short-term investments to total assets, and the level of unfunded loan
commitments. As of December 31, 2007, management considers the Bank's liquidity sufficient to meet the Bank's liquidity needs.

During
the year ended December 31, 2007, cash provided by operating activities generally resulted from net income. Aside from the growth associated with the acquisition of
Landmark, net growth in total deposits, as a financing source, was generally adequate to support growth in total loans, an investing activity. Cash consideration paid in the acquisition of Landmark of
$9.4 million, net of cash acquired of $5.4 million, was financed in part by a new debt issuance of $5.2 million. In addition, the change in balance sheet liquidity management
discussed above, allowed the Company to payoff short term borrowings totaling $14 million from current short term investments and resulted in the net use of funds from financing activities.
Although deposits have grown faster than loans during the year, to the extent loan demand is stronger than the Bank's ability to raise core deposits, financing activities are supplemented by higher
costing time deposits and/or brokered funds.

1st Pacific
Bancorp is a company separate and apart from the Bank and must provide for its own liquidity. As of December 31, 2007, 1st Pacific Bancorp had no
borrowings other than junior subordinated debentures and had approximately $167,000 in unrestricted cash. See Note O, Condensed Financial Information of Parent Company Only, to the consolidated
financial statements for additional financial information regarding 1st Pacific Bancorp.

Substantially
all of 1st Pacific Bancorp's revenues are obtained from dividends declared and paid by the Bank. There are statutory and regulatory provisions that could limit the
ability of the Bank to pay dividends to 1st Pacific Bancorp. See Note M, Regulatory Matters, to the consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding regulatory
dividend and capital restrictions. Management believes that such restrictions will not have an impact on the ability of 1st Pacific Bancorp to meet is ongoing cash obligations.

Interest Rate Risk

The objectives of interest rate risk management are to control exposure of net interest income to risks associated with interest rate movements in the market, to
achieve consistent growth in net interest income and to profit from favorable market opportunities. Even with perfectly matched repricing of assets and liabilities, risks remain in the form of
prepayment of assets and timing lags in adjusting certain assets and liabilities that have varying sensitivities to market interest rates and basis risk.

The
table below sets forth the interest rate sensitivity of the Company's interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities as of December 31, 2007, using the interest rate
sensitivity gap ratio. For purposes of the following table, an asset or liability is considered rate-sensitive within a specified period when it can be repriced or matures within its
contractual terms. When the rate on a loan with a floating rate has reached a contractual floor or ceiling level, the loan is treated as a fixed rate loan for purposes of determining its
rate-sensitivity until the rate is again free to float.

Gap
analysis is a method of analyzing exposure to interest rate risk, by measuring the ability of the Company to reprice its interest rate-sensitive assets and liabilities.
The actual impact of interest rate movements on the Company's net interest income may differ from that implied by any gap measurement, depending on the direction and magnitude of the interest rate
movements and the repricing characteristics of various on and off-balance sheet instruments, as well as competitive pressures. These factors are not fully reflected in the foregoing gap
analysis and, as a result, the gap report may not provide a complete assessment of the Company's interest rate risk. In addition to gap analysis, such as the table above, the Company estimates the
effect of changing interest rates on its net interest income using the repricing and maturity characteristics of its assets and liabilities and the estimated effects on yields and costs of those
assets and liabilities.

Based
on the gap analysis and the Company's assessment of its exposure to interest rate risk, the Company is considered to be "asset sensitive." In general, "asset sensitive" means that,
over time, the

Company's
assets will reprice faster than its liabilities. In a rising interest rate environment, net interest income can be expected to increase and that, in a declining interest rate environment,
net interest income can be expected to decrease. In addition, a rising interest rate environment will affect the Company's ability to reprice loans that bear variable interest rates but are currently
at their floor rates and will not fluctuate immediately. At December 31, 2007, approximately $140 million, or 40% of loans were priced at their floor interest rate. If interest rates
increase, the rates earned on these loans will begin to adjust above their floor rates and the Company's asset sensitivity will increase. Conversely, in the current declining interest rate
environment, the Company will benefit from floor rates built into existing variable rate loans as the indexed rates decline to the floor rates and stop adjusting downwards. At December 31,
2007, loans totaling approximately $59 million had floor rates that were below the existing fully indexed rate; these floors reduce the Company's asset sensitivity in a declining rate
environment. The benefit derived, if any, by the Company when loan rates drop to their floor rates may be mitigated by the increased likelihood that those loans may be refinanced by the borrowers with
other financial institutions.

The
impact of inflation on a financial institution can differ significantly from that exerted on other companies. Banks, as financial intermediaries, have many assets and liabilities,
which may move in concert with inflation both as to interest rates and value. This is especially true for banks with a high percentage of interest rate-sensitive assets and liabilities.
The Company manages its sensitivity to changes in interest rates by performing a gap analysis of its rate sensitive balance sheet and modeling the effects of changes in interest rates on its net
interest income. The Company attempts to structure its mix of financial instruments and manage its interest rate sensitivity gap in order to minimize the potential adverse effects of inflation or
other market forces on its net interest income and, therefore, its earnings and capital.

Short-Term and Other Borrowings

The Bank may borrow up to $18.5 million overnight on an unsecured basis from its correspondent banks; each of these facilities may terminate at any time
without notice. In addition, the Bank has arranged a borrowing line with the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (the "FHLB"), under which the Bank may borrow up to 25% of its assets subject to
providing adequate collateral and fulfilling other conditions of the line. As of December 31, 2007, the Bank had $10.0 million outstanding in two term FHLB advances. One
$5.0 million advance has an interest rate of 4.5% with a final maturity of September 14, 2009 and is callable by the FHLB beginning September 14, 2008 and quarterly thereafter.
The remaining $5.0 million advance has an interest rate of 4.31%, with a final maturity of September 13, 2012 and is callable by the FHLB on September 13, 2009.

As
of December 31, 2006, the Bank had $24.0 million outstanding in FHLB advances under these borrowing lines, which matured in January 2007 and had a weighted average
interest rate of 5.34%. The Bank had no outstanding advances on borrowing lines as of December 31, 2005.

On
March 31, 2005, the Bank issued $5.0 million in Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Debentures in a private placement offering. This offering was undertaken in order to
raise the Bank's capital ratios.
Under risk-based capital guidelines, subordinated debentures qualify for Tier 2 capital treatment up to 50% of Tier 1 capital and, therefore, increased the Bank's total
risk-based capital ratio. The terms of the subordinated debt are: a final maturity of June 15, 2020, a right on behalf of the Bank for early redemptions beginning in June, 2010, and
an interest rate which floats quarterly based on 3 Month LIBOR plus a spread of 178 basis points. The interest rate on the subordinated debt as of December 31, 2007 is 6.77%.

On
June 28, 2007, the Company completed a private placement of $5.0 million in aggregate principal amount of floating rate preferred securities (the "Trust Preferred
Securities") through a newly-formed Delaware trust affiliate, FPBN Trust I (the "Trust"). The Trust used the proceeds from the sale of the Trust Preferred Securities together with the proceeds from
the sale of Common Securities to purchase $5,155,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Company's unsecured floating rate junior subordinated debt securities due September 1, 2037, issued by
the Company (the "Junior Subordinated Debt Securities"). As of December 31, 2007, the coupon interest rate was 6.52% (3 month LIBOR plus 1.40%) and floats quarterly. The Company shall
have the right, subject to regulatory approval, to redeem the debt securities, in whole or from time to time in part, on any interest payment date on or after September 1, 2012. The net
proceeds to the Company from the sale of the Junior Subordinated Debt Securities were used by the Company to fund a portion of the cash consideration in the acquisition of Landmark.

Capital Resources

The Bank opened in November 2000 after completing its initial public offering and raising $11.5 million in capital. In 2002, the Bank completed a secondary
offering of securities, raising $4.2 million in new capital. During 2003 and 2004, the Bank raised approximately $4.3 million from the conversion of 95% of common stock purchase warrants
that were issued in connection with its 2000 initial public offering and the 2002 secondary offering. On May 16, 2005, the Bank's board of directors declared a
two-for-one stock split of the Bank's common stock payable to shareholders of record on June 15, 2005. The shareholders received one additional share for each share they
owned. All share and per share data has been restated for prior periods to reflect this stock split. In 2007, the Company issued approximately 1.0 million shares valued at $15.9 million
in connection with the acquisition of Landmark.

The
Company's shareholders' equity at December 31, 2007 was $45.0 million, an increase of $19.1 million compared to the $25.9 million at December 31,
2006. The increase was primarily the result of the common stock issued in connection with the acquisition of Landmark, in addition to the retained earnings for the year. Tangible book value per share
totaled $6.68 at December 31, 2007, compared to $6.67 as of December 31, 2006. See Note N, Merger-Related Activity, of the consolidated notes to financial statements for more
details regarding the valuation of the shares issued in the merger.

In
1990, the banking industry began to phase in new regulatory capital adequacy requirements based on risk-adjusted assets. These requirements take into consideration the
risk inherent in investments, loans, and other assets for both on-balance sheet and
off-balance sheet items. Under these requirements, the regulatory agencies have set minimum thresholds for Tier 1 capital, total capital and leverage ratios. The Bank's
risk-adjusted capital ratios, shown below as of December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005 have been computed in accordance with regulatory accounting policies. See also Note M to the
Financial Statements and "Item 1, Description of BusinessSupervision and RegulationRisk-Based Capital Guidelines" above for more information on regulatory
capital requirements.

INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO

The primary objective of the Company's investment portfolio is to contribute to maximizing shareholder value by providing adequate liquidity sources to meet
fluctuations in the Company's loan demand and deposit structure. To meet this objective, the Company invests in investment securities that generate reasonable rates of return to the Company given its
liquidity objectives. Secondary objectives of the investment portfolio which may be considered include: meeting pledging requirements of public or other depositors; minimizing the Company's tax
liability; accomplishing strategic goals; and assisting various local public entities with their financing needs (which may assist the Company in meeting its CRA objectives).

The
Board of Directors has established policies regarding the investment activities of the Company, including establishment of risk limits and ensuring that management has the requisite
skills to manage the risks associated with the Company's investment activities. The Board of Directors reviews portfolio activity and risk levels and requires management to demonstrate compliance with
approved risk limits. Senior management is responsible for establishing and enforcing policies and procedures for conducting investment activities. Management must have an understanding of the nature
and level of various risks involved in the Company's investments and how such risks fit within the overall risk characteristics of the Company's balance sheet.

The
Chief Financial Officer acts as the Company's Investment Officer and ensures that the day-to-day guidelines of the Company's investment policies are properly
implemented and that all investments meet regulatory and accounting guidelines. The Chief Executive Officer or the Chief Financial Officer must approve each investment transaction. The Company
monitors its investment portfolio closely, and accordingly, its composition may change substantially over time.

At
December 31, 2007, the Company held securities guaranteed or issued by FNMA totaling $7.1 million and securities guaranteed or issued by FHLMC totaling
$4.6 million, each of which was in excess of 10% of the Company's shareholder equity. See Note BInvestment Securities in the notes to consolidated financial statements for
additional information on investment securities.

LOAN PORTFOLIO

Types of Loans

The Bank originates, purchases, or acquires participating interests in loans for its portfolio and for possible sale in the secondary market. Total loans were
$275.3 million at December 31, 2006 and increased to $349.8 million at December 31, 2007. The increase of $74.6 million, or 27%, in loans during 2007 is primarily
the result of the acquisition of Landmark which had total loans of $72.3 upon closure of the acquisition, July 1, 2007. Types of loans include construction and land development loans,
residential and commercial real estate loans, commercial business loans, SBA loans, and consumer loans.

The
legal lending limits to any one borrower have increased significantly over the past two years due to the Bank's capital growth enabling the Bank to compete for larger individual loan
transactions. San Diego County's commercial real estate market remained relatively strong throughout the fourth quarter of 2007, despite the continued weakness in the national economy and weakness in
residential real estate markets in San Diego.

Construction
loans are primarily made as interim loans to finance the construction of commercial and single family residential property. These loans are typically for a term of
approximately 12 months. Other real estate loans consist primarily of commercial and industrial real estate loans. This type of loan is made based on the income generating capacity of the
property or the cash flow of the borrower. These loans are secured by the property. In general, our policy is to restrict these loans to no more than 75% of the lower of the appraised value or the
purchase price of the property. We offer both fixed and variable rate loans with maturities that generally do not exceed 15 years, unless the loans are SBA loans secured by real estate or other
commercial real estate loans easily sold in the secondary market.

portion of total real estate loans and commercial business loans are made under certain SBA loan programs. These loans generally are structured such that they may be sold, either as a
whole with servicing released, as is the case for SBA 504 loans, or in the case of SBA 7(a) loans, the guaranteed portion may be sold in the secondary market and the servicing is retained. To date,
SBA 7(a) loans have only been sold in a limited number of cases; however, certain SBA 504 loans have been packaged for sale when the rates and terms of the loans do not meet our asset and liability
management objectives.

Commercial
loans are made to provide working capital, finance the purchase of equipment and for other business purposes. These loans can be "short-term," with maturities
ranging from 30 days to one year, or "term loans" with maturities normally ranging from one to 25 years. Short-term loans are generally intended to finance current
transactions and typically
provide for periodic principal payments, with interest payable monthly. Term loans normally provide for floating interest rates, with monthly payments of both principal and interest.

Maturities and Sensitivities of Loans to Changes in Interest Rates

Many of the Bank's loans have floating interest rates, typically tied to the prime-lending rate as published in The Wall Street Journal. The majority of these
floating rate loans are adjusted at least quarterly.

As
stated in the "Liquidity and Interest Rate Risk" section above, when the rate on a loan with a floating rate has reached a contractual floor or ceiling level, the loan is treated as a
fixed rate loan for purposes of determining its rate-sensitivity until the rate is again free to float. At December 31, 2007, approximately $140 million of the fixed rate
loans, noted above, were floating rate loans priced at their floor interest rate. We monitor the level of sensitivity of the Company's loan portfolio to changes in interest rates on a regular basis
under our interest rate risk management program.

Loan Quality

The risk of nonpayment of loans is an inherent feature of the banking business. That risk varies with the type and purpose of the loan, the collateral that is
utilized to secure payment, and ultimately, the credit worthiness of the borrower. In order to minimize this credit risk, the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Operating Officer, the Chief Credit
Officer, or the Loan Committee of the Board of Directors of
the Bank approve virtually all loans made by the Company. The Loan Committee is comprised of directors and members of its senior management.

The
Company grades its loans from "pass" to "loss," depending on credit quality, with "pass" representing loans with an acceptable degree of risk given the favorable aspects of the
credit and with both primary and secondary sources of repayment. Classified loans or substandard loans are ranked below "pass" loans. As these loans are identified in the review process, they are
added to the internal watch list and loss allowances are established. Additionally, loans are examined regularly by the Company's regulatory agencies. A loan which has been placed on
non-accrual status is not returned to accrual basis until it has been brought current with respect to both principal and interest payments, is performing to current terms and conditions,
its interest rate is commensurate with market interest rates and future principal and interest payments are no longer in doubt. During 2007, the Company had an average recorded investment in loans in
a non-accrual status of $3,874,991.

Restructured
loans are those loans where the Company has made concessions in interest rates or repayment terms due to a decline in the financial condition of the borrower. Other real
estate owned may be acquired in satisfaction of loan receivables through foreclosure or other means. If acquired, these properties are recorded on an individual asset basis at the estimated fair value
less selling expenses. The Bank had no restructured loans or other real estate at any time during 2006 or 2007.

As
of December 31, 2007, two SBA Loans with a combined outstanding balance of $648,219 and four commercial loans with outstanding balances totaling $3,495,795 were past due
30-89 days. These four past due commercial loans were all brought current in January, 2008. Although past dues are trending upward, the majority of these past due loans are matured
loans which are in the various stages of renewal and renegotiation.

Non-accrual
loans are loans which management believes may not be fully collectible as to principal and interest. Generally loans which are past due 90 days or loans
upon which management believes the interest may not be collectible are placed on non-accrual status. As of December 31, 2007, the Bank had five loans on non-accrual
status, four of which became non-accrual in the fourth quarter of 2007.

Included
in non-accrual loans at December 31, 2007, is a loan that was identified as a problem during March 2007 when the Company became aware that a completed
project, financed by a construction loan, was subject to a sales slowdown. The project consists of twenty six (26) condominium units, and as of December 31, 2007, seventeen
(17) units had been sold and closed escrow leaving a balance owing of $2,531,992. The Bank expects to recover substantially all of the outstanding principal via future property sales and should
there be any deficiency, from guarantors.

Also
included in non-accrual loans at December 31, 2007, is a land acquisition and development loan totaling $2.6 million, which was matured. This loan has been
renegotiated and brought current and is back on accrual status.

In
addition, as of December 31, 2007, the Bank had $3.1 million of potential problem loans which are not disclosed as nonperforming loans, but where known information about
possible credit problems of borrowers causes management to have serious doubts as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with their present loan repayment terms and which may result in disclosure
of such loans as nonperforming loans in the future.

All
non-accrual loans, as well as other potential problem loans are subject to continuing management attention and are considered in the determination of the allowance for
loan losses.

Further
decline in economic conditions in the Bank's market area or other factors could adversely impact individual borrowers or the loan portfolio in general. The Bank has well defined
underwriting standards and expects to continue with prompt collection efforts, but economic uncertainties or changes may cause one or more borrowers to experience problems in the coming year.

Loan Concentrations

The Bank's loan portfolio consists primarily of loans to borrowers within San Diego County. Although the Company seeks to avoid concentrations of loans to a
single industry or based upon a single class of collateral, real estate and real estate associated businesses are among the principal industries in the Company's market area and, as a result, the
Company's loan and collateral portfolios are, to some degree, concentrated in those industries.

As
of December 31, 2007, the Bank held approximately 72% of its loan portfolio in real estate related market segments: 36% in construction and land development loans, 34% in real
estate term loans and 2% in SBA 504 loans. Approximately 24% of the Bank's loan portfolio consists of Commercial & Industrial Loans, of which a 2% concentration is SBA 7a loans. The
Commercial & Industrial loans were highly concentrated in secured loans, representing 20% of the total portfolio. Given the trends in the real estate markets, the bank is making a concerted
effort to be very selective in its real estate and construction lending activity.

Provisions
for loan losses are based on an analysis of the loan portfolio and include such factors as historical experience, the volume and type of loans in the portfolio, the amount of
nonperforming loans, regulatory policies, general economic conditions, and other factors related to the ability to collect
on loans in the portfolio. The amount provided for loan losses is charged to earnings. The provision for loan losses was $338,000 for 2007 compared to $444,000 for the year ending December 31,
2006. The Bank ended 2007 with a 1.29% level of allowance for loan losses to total loans compared to 1.18% for the year ended December 31, 2006.

Since
its inception in 2000, the Bank has charged off a total of $164,508 with recoveries of $14,052, leaving a net charge off total for the Bank of $150,456; which represents 0.043% of
the Bank's December 31, 2007 net loans. During 2007, $105,000 was charged off related to the unguaranteed portions of two SBA 7a loans. Prior to 2007, the limited charge off activity
experienced by the Bank has been primarily related to the unguaranteed portions of SBA 7a loans.

The
Bank performs a quarterly detailed review to identify the risks inherent in the loan portfolio, to assess the overall quality of the loan portfolio and to determine the adequacy of
the allowance for loan losses and the related provision for loan losses, which is charged to expense.

In
October 2007, an outside loan reviewer, hired by the Company, conducted its most recent field analysis for a periodic loan review. The examination covered new loan originations of
$500,000 or more and a 20% sampling of loans between $100,000 and $500,000 with activity from July 1, 2007 and September 30, 2007. The examiner reviewed 82 loans totaling
$59 million. There were no new loan downgrades as a result of the loan review.

Further,
in January 2008, the Bank's combined Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco and DFI audit was completed, with no changes recommended either to the loan loss allowance calculation
methodology or to the allowance for loan losses.

A
key element of the methodology for assessing the risks inherent in the loan portfolio is the credit classification process. Loans identified as less than "pass" are reviewed
individually to estimate the amount of probable losses that need to be included in the allowance. These reviews include analysis of financial information as well as evaluation of collateral securing
the credit. Four allocation components are used: General, Specific, Specific Impaired and Qualitative. The General component estimates probable future loan loss based on historical experience, the
Specific component is designed to calculate a reserve for criticized and classified loans, the Specific Impaired component allocates a probable loss amount on impaired loans and a Qualitative
designation considers factors such as national and local economic changes, changes to management or staff and unemployment rates. Additionally, the inherent risk present in the "pass" portion of the
loan portfolio is assessed by taking into consideration historical losses on pools of similar loans, adjusted for trends, conditions and other relevant factors that may affect repayment of the loans
in these pools. Upon completion, the written analysis is presented to the Board of Directors for discussion, review and approval.

We
consider the allowance for loan losses to be adequate to provide for risks inherent in the loan portfolio. All available information is used to recognize losses on loans and leases;
however, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically
review the allowance for loan losses and may recommend additions based upon their evaluation of the portfolio at the time of their examination. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the
allowance for loan losses will be adequate to cover future loan losses or that significant additions to the allowance for loan losses will not be required in the future. Material additions to the
allowance for loan losses would decrease earnings and capital, among other adverse consequences.

DEPOSITS

Deposits are the primary source of funding for the lending and investing needs of the Bank. Total deposits were $261.8 million at December 31, 2006,
and increased to $345.4 million at December 31, 2007. Total deposits increased by $83.6 million and $24.6 million, or 32% and 10%, respectively, in 2007 and 2006. The
increase in 2007 was primarily due to deposits acquired from Landmark which had total deposits of $81.8 million upon completion of the acquisition. Continued sales and marketing efforts to
implement strategic goals also contributed to the increase in deposits in both years. The Bank continues to develop and build relationships with its target market, which are
small-to-medium sized businesses and professionals. Increasing competition for deposits in the local markets, the slowing economy and the rate environment made 2007 a
particularly challenging year.

A
fifth branch office was opened in El Cajon in April 2006 and contributed to deposit growth in 2006 and 2007; total deposits for this branch office were $7.0 million at
December 31, 2006 and $12 million at December 31, 2007. During 2007, two established branch offices were added to the Bank's branch network with the acquisition of Landmark. The
following table summarizes average deposits and average rates paid for the periods indicated:

The
changes in interest rates paid on deposit accounts from 2006 to 2007 reflect changes in the interest rate environment. Interest rates paid on deposit accounts are managed proactively
to remain competitive and to react to changes in Federal monetary policy.

While
the Company plans for growth in deposits in 2008, the coming year is likely to be one where we continue to feel pressure on our net interest margin and strong competition for
deposits. As of December 31, 2007, the Company had approximately 5,419 deposit accounts comprised of savings and money market accounts (29%), certificates of deposit (45%), and transaction
accounts (26%).

To
augment marketing efforts and as a means to build new relationships in the community, the Bank periodically solicits new deposits through deposit promotions, which may be advertised,
typically in print media. During 2007, two such campaigns were initiated that resulted in approximately $50.0 million in new money market and CD funds. Typically, when running a promotional
deposit campaign, the Company will offer highly competitive interest rates. These rates are typically higher than standard interest rates offered by the Company, but are generally not the highest
interest rates available in the market place. The Bank expects to continue to periodically run promotional deposit campaigns and market directly to its strategic niche in order to grow its deposit
base and to attract new deposit relationships.

Deposits
are also acquired from non-traditional sources through relationships with correspondent banks and related deposit programs as well as through deposit brokers. The
Bank participates in a "portfolio deposit program" offered by a correspondent bank in which it receives variable rate money market deposits as pass through funds from the correspondent bank; however,
the Bank's participation in this program totaled only $100,000 at December 31, 2007.

During
2007, as a result of the acquisition of Landmark, the Bank began participating in the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service ("CDARS") program. This program permits the
Bank's customers to place all of their deposits at one institution and have those deposits fully-insured by the FDIC, up to $30 million. The CDARS program acts as a clearinghouse, matching
deposits from one institution in the CDARS network of over 1,500 banks with other network banks (in increments of less than the $100 thousand FDIC insurance limit), so funds that a customer
places with the Bank

essentially
remain on the Bank's balance sheet. As of December 31, 2007, the Bank had issued approximately $7 million of certificates of deposit to local customers through the CDARS
program.

Deposits
are also received in the form of time certificates through the use of deposit brokers who place the funds with the Company on behalf of their clients. The total level of
deposits from these non-traditional sources was approximately $48 million at December 31, 2007, compared to approximately $40 million at December 31, 2006. The
level of deposits the Bank accepts from these non-traditional sources is carefully managed as these types of deposits expose the Company to different characteristics in managing its
liquidity. The Company has adopted procedures to monitor these deposits and has made arrangements for borrowing funds from other sources (see "Short-Term and Other Borrowings" below)
should these programs become less available. However, should deposits from these programs suddenly decline, the Company's other sources of funds could become more costly. Also, should the Bank cease
to be "well-capitalized" these deposits would be unavailable to it under the Prompt Corrective Action regulations. See the Enforcement Powers section of "Supervision and Regulation" above.

NONINTEREST INCOME AND NONINTEREST EXPENSE

Noninterest income for 2007 was $710,000, compared to $538,000 for 2006, an increase of $172,000, or 32%. The year-over-year increase can
mostly be attributed to the noninterest income received on deposit accounts acquired from the Landmark acquisition. As a percentage of total average assets, noninterest income was 0.19% for both 2007
and 2006. Service charges on deposit accounts, related fees, and other income increased 46% from $396,000 in 2006 to $577,000 in 2007. Increases in service charges were somewhat offset by a decline in
gains and income on the sale or brokering of loans, which decreased from $143,000 in 2006 to $128,000 in 2007. Gains on sale of loan assets will continue to occur periodically; however, the timing of
such sales is not expected to be regular.

Noninterest
expense increased $3.4 million, from $10.0 million for the year ending December 31, 2006 to $13.4 million for the year ending December 31,
2007. This 34% increase is primarily attributable to expenses associated with growth of the Company, which during 2007 was largely a result of the acquisition of Landmark. On a relative basis, total
noninterest expenses as a percentage of total average assets increased from 3.56% in 2006 to 3.64% in 2007, an increase of 2.3%. Additionally, during the third quarter of 2007, the Company relocated
three of its existing six office locations, acquiring additional space for growth and consolidating certain administrative support areas. All together, nonrecurring expenses totaling $447,000 were
incurred in the second half of 2007 associated with the integration of Landmark and the relocation of offices as well as various legal costs and a non-recoverable robbery loss. Although
noninterest expenses increased significantly as a result of the merger and integration costs related to the acquisition of Landmark, the Company expects that the efficiencies realized from this
acquisition will more than offset the increased costs and expenses going forward.

Below
is more analysis and further breakdown of the $3.4 million increase in noninterest expenses between December 31, 2006 and 2007:

Salary
and benefits expense increased from $6.1 million in 2006 to $7.5 million in 2007. The number of full-time equivalent employees increased from 77 at
December 31, 2006 to 107 at December 31, 2007, including the addition of 20 new permanent staff positions as a result of the Landmark acquisition. Nonrecurring salary and benefit expense
related to temporary positions to assist in the merger and related systems conversion of Landmark totaled approximately $106,000.

Occupancy
and equipment expense increased 53%, from $1.5 million in 2006 to $2.3 million in 2007, which includes the addition of two branch office locations from Landmark
beginning in July 2007. Additionally, during the third quarter of 2007, the Company relocated three of its other six offices: the East County branch office was relocated to a larger, permanent
location from its existing temporary facility; and the Golden Triangle Branch Office and the Headquarters Office were relocated and consolidated at a larger facility. As a result of these relocations,
nonrecurring expenses of approximately $117,000 were incurred related to writing off remaining lease obligations on vacated premises.

Other
operating expenses increased from $2.4 million in 2006 to $3.6 million in 2007 including increases in data processing expenses, professional fees, FDIC insurance
assessments and office and administrative expenses. A portion of this increase is attributable to the growth of the Company, including the Landmark acquisition and the amortization of the related core
deposit intangible, which totaled $98,000 in 2007. Furthermore, nonrecurring expenses totaling approximately $224,000 associated with moving three offices, running two data processing systems (after
the merger, but prior to system conversion), extraordinary printing costs associated with the merger, various legal costs, and a non-recoverable robbery loss contributed to the increase in
other operating expenses.

INCOME TAXES

During 2007, the Company recognized income tax expense of $1.7 million compared to $2.2 million for 2006. The decrease in total income tax expense
is attributable to the decrease in income before income taxes; total income tax expense as a percentage of income before taxes was 41.4% in 2007 and 40.8% in 2006. See also Note F, Income
Taxes, to the Financial Statements for more information.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

See Note D, Premises and Equipment included in "Item 8Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its
customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit totaling $104.4 million at December 31, 2007 and $90.8 million as of
December 31, 2006.

The
Company leases its facilities under non-cancellable operating leases and routinely enters contracts for services to be provided over extended future periods, which may
contain penalty clauses for the early termination of the contracts.

In
addition, the Company is a member of The Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco and, as such, is offered wholesale credit products and services, which provide the Company access to
funds that help the Company meet the borrowing needs of its customers. For additional information regarding the Company's off-balance sheet arrangements, see Notes D, G and H to the

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

This form 10-K is based on the Company's financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America. The process of preparing these financial statements requires management to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments that could have a material effect
on the Company's financial condition and results of operations and may change in future periods. A critical accounting policy is defined as one that is material to the presentation of the Company's
financial statements. A summary of significant accounting policies is presented in Note A of the Financial Statements found in "Item 8- Financial Statements and Supplementary
Data," below. Management believes that the following are critical accounting policies.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements.The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires the Company's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates. Note A to the Financial Statements describes the significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the Financial Statements.

Loans.Loans receivable that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or
payoff are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances reduced by any charge-offs or specific valuation accounts and net of any deferred fees or costs on originated loans, or
unamortized premiums or discounts on purchased loans. Loan origination fees and certain direct origination costs are capitalized and recognized as an adjustment of the yield of the related loan. The
accrual of interest on impaired loans is discontinued when, in management's opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payments as they become due. Interest income is subsequently recognized only to
the extent cash payments are received.

Allowance for Loan Losses.The allowance for loan losses is adjusted by charges to income and decreased by
charge-offs (net of recoveries). Management's periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based on the Company's past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the
portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, and current economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently
subjective, as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

Stock-Based Compensation.In December 2004, Financial Accounting Standards Board revised Statement of Financial Accounting
Standard 123 and issued it under its new name, "Share-Based Payment" (the "Statement"). The Statement eliminates the alternative to use APB Opinion 25's intrinsic value method of accounting. Instead,
the Statement generally requires entities to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of stock options, or other equity instruments, based on the grant-date
fair value of those awards.

The
Bank adopted SFAS No. 123 (R) on January 1, 2006 using the "modified prospective method." Under this method compensation expense is recognized using the
fair-value method for all new stock option awards as well as any existing awards that are modified, repurchased or cancelled after January 1, 2006 and prior periods are not
restated. In addition, the unvested portion of previously awarded options outstanding as of January 1, 2006 will also be recognized as expense over the requisite service period based on the
fair value of those options as previously calculated at the grant date under the pro-forma disclosures of SFAS No. 123 (R). See Note A, Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies included in "Item 8Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."

---





Goodwill and Other Intangibles.Net assets of companies acquired in purchase transactions are recorded at fair value at the
date of acquisition. The historical cost basis of individual assets and liabilities are adjusted to reflect their fair value. Identified intangibles are amortized on an accelerated or
straight-line basis over the period benefited. Goodwill is not amortized but is reviewed for potential impairment on an annual basis, or if events or circumstances indicate a potential
impairment. Other intangible assets subject to amortization are evaluated for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived
Assets. An impairment loss will be recognized if the carrying amount of the intangible asset is not recoverable and exceeds fair value. The carrying amount of the intangible is considered not
recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Annual Report on Form 10-K and other documents that we incorporate by reference into this report contain forward-looking statements
concerning the Company's beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations, estimates, intentions, operations, future results and prospects, including statements that include the words
"may," "could," "should," "would," "believe," "expect," "will," "shall," "anticipate," "estimate," "propose," "continue," "predict," "intend," "plan" and similar expressions. These forward-looking
statements are based upon current expectations and are subject to risk, uncertainties and assumptions, including those described in this annual report and the other documents that are incorporated by
reference herein. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated,
estimated, expected, projected, intended, committed or believed.

In
connection with the safe harbors created by Section 21E of the Exchange Act and the provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Company provides the
following cautionary statement identifying important factors (some of which are beyond the Company's control) which could cause the actual results or events to differ materially from those set forth
in or implied by the forward-looking statements and related assumptions. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following:

Investors
and other readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which reflect management's analysis only as of the date of the statement. Actual
results may differ materially from what is expected. The Company undertakes no obligation, unless required by law, to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise.

ITEM 7A.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk for the Company is primarily derived from the exposure to interest rate risk. Other types of market risk, such as foreign currency exchange risk,
commodity price risk and equity price risk, are not significant in the normal course of the Company's operations. Furthermore, the Company has not entered into any significant market risk sensitive
instruments for trading purposes.

One
of the objectives of the Company's asset/liability strategy is to manage interest rate risks to ensure the safety and soundness of the Company's capital base, while maintaining
adequate net interest

50

---



margins
and spreads to provide an appropriate return to shareholders. The objectives of interest rate risk management are to control exposure of net interest income to risks associated with interest
rate movements in the market, to achieve consistent growth in net interest income and to profit from favorable market opportunities.

To
manage interest rate risk, the Company performs a gap analysis, which is a method of analyzing exposure to interest rate risk, by measuring the ability of the Company to reprice its
interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities. In addition to gap analysis, the Company estimates the effect of changing interest rates on its net interest income using the repricing and maturity
characteristics of its assets and liabilities and the estimated effects on yields and costs of those assets and liabilities. Based on the gap analysis and the Company's assessment of its exposure to
interest rate risk, the Company is "asset sensitive." In general, "asset sensitive" means that, over time, the Company's assets will reprice faster than its liabilities. In a rising interest rate
environment, net interest income can be expected to increase and, in a declining interest rate environment, net interest income can be expected to decrease. During a declining rate environment, the
Company's interest rate risk exposure is somewhat mitigated by floor rates built into loan contracts.

Using
the Company's current interest rate risk model, the Company estimates the following changes in its net interest income assuming different interest rate shocks to the Federal Funds
rate as of December 31, 2007:

The financial statements and supplementary data required by this Item 8 are set forth at the pages indicated on the Index to Financial Statements included
in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

ITEM 9.    CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

None.

ITEM 9A(T).    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the Company
has evaluated the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act for the end of the period
covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Based on that evaluation, the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that these controls
and procedures are effective in all material respects, including those to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer

and
the principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Report of Management on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The management of 1st Pacific Bancorp is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The
Company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements
for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The
Company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail,
accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation
of financial statements in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, (iii) provide reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with
authorization of management and directors of the company, and (iv) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of the unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of
the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management
has assessed the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007. The assessment was based on criteria for effective internal control over
financial reporting described in theInternal ControlIntegrated Frameworkissued by the Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission. Based on the assessment, Management believes that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007.

This
annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was
not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's
report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no significant changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the Company's most recent fiscal quarter that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Inherent limitations exist in any system of internal control including the possibility
of human error and the potential of overriding controls. Even effective internal controls can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. The effectiveness of an
internal control system may also be affected by changes in conditions.

ITEM 9B.    OTHER INFORMATION

None.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board
of Directors and Shareholders of
1st Pacific Bancorp and Subsidiary

We
have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition of 1st Pacific Bancorp and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and
the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the three years ended December 31, 2007. These consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In
our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of 1st Pacific Bancorp and
Subsidiary as of December 31, 2007 and 2006,
and the results of its operations and cash flows for the three years ended December 31, 2007 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

1st PACIFIC BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY        NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE ASUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis
of Presentation

On
January 16, 2007, 1st Pacific Bancorp (the "Company") acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of common stock of 1st Pacific Bank of
California (the "Bank") which were converted into an equal number of shares of common stock of 1st Pacific Bancorp. There was no cash involved in the transaction. The
reorganization was accounted for like a pooling of interests and the consolidated financial statements contained herein have been restated to give full effect to this transaction.

Principles
of Consolidation

The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, the Bank. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.

Nature
of Operations

The
Company is a California corporation incorporated on August 4, 2006 and is registered with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as a bank holding company under
the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. The Bank is a wholly-owned bank subsidiary of the Company and was incorporated in California on April 17, 2000. The Bank is a California
corporation licensed to operate as a commercial bank under the California Banking Law by the California Department of Financial Institutions (the "DFI"). In accordance with the Federal Deposit
Insurance Act, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC") insures the deposits of the Bank. The Bank is a member of the Federal Reserve System.

The
Company is organized as a single operating segment and operates seven full-service branch offices, three in San Diego, California, one in Oceanside, California, one in El
Cajon, California, one in Solana Beach, California, one in La Jolla, California. The Company's primary source of revenue is derived from providing loans and deposits to its customers, who are
predominately small and middle-market businesses and professionals in San Diego County.

Use
of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash
and Cash Equivalents

For
purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash, due from banks and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are sold for one-day periods.

Cash
and Due from Banks

Banking
regulations require that banks maintain a percentage of their deposits as reserves in cash or on deposit with the Federal Reserve Bank. The Bank was in compliance with all
reserve

1st PACIFIC BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE ASUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

requirements
as of December 31, 2007. The Bank maintains amounts due from banks, which exceed federally insured limits; the Bank has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Investment
Securities

Bonds,
notes, and debentures for which the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are reported at cost, adjusted for premiums and discounts that are recognized
in interest income using the interest method over the period to maturity.

Investments
not classified as trading securities nor as held-to-maturity securities are classified as available-for-sale securities and
recorded at fair value. Unrealized gains or losses on available-for-sale securities are excluded from net income and reported as an amount net of taxes as a separate component
of other
comprehensive income included in shareholders' equity. Premiums or discounts on held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities are amortized or
accreted into income using the interest method. Realized gains or losses on sales of held-to-maturity or available-for-sale securities are recorded
using the specific identification method.

Declines
in the fair value of individual held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities below their cost that are
other-than-temporary result in write-downs of the individual securities to their fair value. The related write-downs are included in earnings as realized losses. In estimating
other-than-temporary impairment losses, management considers: the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and
near-term prospects of the issuer, and the intent and ability of the Bank to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in
fair value.

Loans

Loans
that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances reduced by any
charge-offs or specific valuation accounts and net of any deferred fees or costs on originated loans, or unamortized premiums or discounts on purchased loans. Loan origination fees and
certain direct origination costs are capitalized and recognized as an adjustment of the yield of the related loan.

The
accrual of interest on impaired loans is discontinued when, in management's opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payments as they become due, generally when past due
90 days based on the contractual terms of the loan. Interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received. For impairment recognized in accordance with
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a
Loan,"as amended by SFAS No. 118, the entire change in the present value of expected cash flows is reported as either provision for credit losses in the same manner in
which impairment initially was recognized, or as a reduction in the amount of provision for credit losses that otherwise would be reported.

Allowance
for Loan Losses

The
allowance for loan losses is adjusted by charges to income and decreased by charge-offs (net of recoveries). Management's periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the
allowance is based on the Company's past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that

F-7

1st PACIFIC BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE ASUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

may
affect the borrower's ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, and current economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates that
are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

The
allowance consists of specific, general and unallocated components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified doubtful, substandard and special mention. The general
component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors. An unallocated component is maintained to cover uncertainties that could
affect management's estimate of probable losses and reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in
the portfolio.

Premises
and Equipment

Premises
and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful
lives, which ranges from three to ten years for furniture and fixtures. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
improvements or the remaining lease term, whichever is shorter. Expenditures for betterments or major repairs are capitalized and those for ordinary repairs and maintenance are charged to operations
as incurred.

Advertising
Costs

The
Company expenses the costs of advertising in the year incurred.

Income
Taxes

Deferred
income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method, which recognizes a liability or asset representing the tax effects, based on current tax law, of future
deductible or taxable amounts attributable to events that have been recognized in the financial statements. A valuation allowance is established to reduce the deferred tax asset to the level at which
it is "more likely than not" that the tax asset or benefits will be realized. Realization of tax benefits of deductible temporary differences and operating loss carry-forwards depends on having
sufficient taxable income of an appropriate character within the carry-forward periods.

Accounting
for Uncertainty in Income Taxes

The
Company has adopted Financial Accounting Standards Interpretation No. 48 ("FIN 48"),Accounting for Uncertainty in Income
Taxes.FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return and provides that the tax effects from an uncertain
tax position can be recognized in the financial statements only if, based on its merits, the position is more likely than not to be sustained on audit by the taxing authorities. Management believes
that all tax positions taken to date are highly certain and, accordingly, no accounting adjustment has been made to the financial statements. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions
are recorded as part of income tax expense.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE ASUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Financial
Instruments

In
the ordinary course of business, the Company has entered into off-balance sheet financial instruments consisting of commitments to extend credit, commercial letters of
credit, and standby letters of credit as described in Note G. Such financial instruments are recorded in the financial statements when they are funded or related fees are incurred or received.

Earnings
Per Share (EPS)

Basic
EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS
reflects the
potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in
the earnings of the entity.

The
number of weighted average shares outstanding used to calculate basic and diluted EPS for the years ended 2007, 2006 and 2005 were as follows:

Calculation Type

2007

2006

3,865,330

3,840,596Diluted EPS

4,715,218

4,193,154

4,183,787


At
December 31, 2007, the Company had 420,712 of potentially dilutive securities that were outstanding but excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS as the effects are
anti-dilutive.

Goodwill
and Other Intangibles

Net
assets of companies acquired in purchase transactions are recorded at fair value at the date of acquisition. The historical cost basis of individual assets and liabilities are
adjusted to reflect their fair value. Identified intangibles are amortized on an accelerated or straight-line basis over the period benefited. Goodwill is not amortized but is reviewed for
potential impairment on an annual basis, or if events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment. Other intangible assets subject to amortization are evaluated for impairment in accordance with
SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. An impairment loss will be recognized if
the carrying amount of the intangible asset is not recoverable and exceeds fair value. The carrying amount of the intangible is considered not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted
cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset.

Investment
in Trust

On
June 28, 2007, the Company completed a private placement of $5.0 million in aggregate principal amount of floating rate preferred securities (the "Trust Preferred
Securities") through a newly formed Delaware trust affiliate, FPBN Trust I (the "Trust"). The Company purchased a 3% minority interest in the Trust. The balance of the equity of the Trust is comprised
of mandatorily redeemable preferred securities. The Company accounts for its investment in the Trust using the equity method under which the subsidiaries net earnings are recognized in the Bancorp's
statement of income, pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46"), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB
No. 51."

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE ASUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Pursuant
to FIN 46, the Trust is not consolidated into the Company's financial statements. The Federal Reserve Board has ruled that subordinated notes payable to unconsolidated
special purpose entities ("SPE's") such as the Trust, net of the bank holding company's investment in the SPE, qualify as Tier 1 Capital, subject to certain limits.

Disclosure
about Fair Value of Financial Instruments

SFAS
No. 107 specifies the disclosure of the estimated fair value of financial instruments. The Company's estimated fair value amounts have been determined using available market
information and appropriate valuation methodologies.

However,
considerable judgment is required to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could have
realized in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

Stock-Based
Compensation Plans

The
Bank has adopted SFAS No. 123(R) "Shared-Based Payment."This Statement generally requires entities to recognize the cost of
employee services received in exchange for awards of stock options, or other equity instruments, based on the grant-date fair value of those awards. This cost is recognized over the period
in which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, generally the vesting period.

Change
in Accounting Principle

The
Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R) on January 1, 2006 using the "modified prospective method." Under this method compensation expense is recognized using the
fair-value method for all new stock option awards as well as any existing awards that are modified, repurchased or cancelled after January 1, 2006 and prior periods are not
restated. In addition, the unvested portion of previously awarded options outstanding as of January 1, 2006 will also be recognized as expense over the requisite service period based on the
fair value of those options as previously calculated at the grant date under the pro-forma disclosures of SFAS No. 123(R). The fair value of each grant is estimated using the
Black-Scholes option-pricing model. As a result of adopting SFAS No. 123(R), the Company recognized pre-tax stock based compensation expense of $246,000 and $105,000 during 2007 and
2006, respectively, which resulted in a reduction of net income of $154,000, or $0.03 per share, in 2007 and $74,000, or $0.02 per share in 2006.

Prior
to the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), the Company accounted for stock-based awards using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion
No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,"and related interpretations. Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options was measured as
the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company's stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. All of the Company's stock option grants
included exercise prices equal to the Company's current market price per share; accordingly, no compensation expense was reported using the intrinsic value method of APB Opinion No. 25.

Had
compensation cost for the Company's stock option plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards under those plans consistent with the method of SFAS
No. 123(R), the Company's net income and income per share for 2005 would have changed to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

During
November 2005, the Company accelerated the vesting of all unexpired outstanding stock options that would otherwise have vested at various times during the two years ending
December 31, 2007 (the "accelerated vesting period"). Of the total options outstanding at that time, vesting was accelerated on approximately 128,000 options that were scheduled to vest at
various times during the accelerated vesting period. This action did not affect options that would have already vested by December 31, 2005, which totaled approximately 585,000. With the
consent of the individual optionees, any such options exercised during the accelerated vesting period will be restricted and subject to a holding period through the date on which the options would
have been permitted to be exercised under the option's original vesting terms.

The
decision to accelerate the vesting of these stock options was made primarily to reduce non-cash compensation expense that would have been recorded in future periods
following the Company's adoption of SFAS 123(R). As a result of the acceleration of the vesting of these options, approximately $338,000, net of tax benefits, is reflected in pro forma income
disclosure above in 2005 under SFAS 123(R) and will not result in a future expense in the statement of operations.

Comprehensive
Income

The
Company adopted SFAS No. 130,"Reporting Comprehensive Income,"which requires the disclosure of comprehensive income and its
components. Changes in unrealized gain or loss on available-for-sale securities, net of taxes, are the only components of other comprehensive income for the Company.

New
Accounting Pronouncements

In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements,"effective for the Company January 1, 2008. This
Statement defines fair value, established a framework for measuring

F-11

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE ASUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

fair
value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement established a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between valuations obtained form sources independent of the
entity and those from the entity's own observable inputs that are not corroborated by observable market data. SFAS No. 157 expands disclosures about the use of fair value to measure assets and
liabilities in interim and annual periods subsequent to initial recognition. The disclosures focus on the inputs used to measure fair value, and for recurring fair value measurements using significant
unobservable inputs, the effect of the measurements on earning or changes in net assets for the period. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance on its financial statements.

In
February 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 No. 159 permits an entity to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Most of the
provisions of SFAS No. 159 are elective; however, the amendment to SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, applies to all entities with
available-for-sale or trading securities. For financial instruments elected to be accounted for at fair value, an entity will report the unrealized gains and losses in
earnings. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently assessing the financial impact this
Statement will have on the statement of financial condition or results of operations.

Reclassifications

Certain
amounts have been reclassified in the 2006 and 2005 financial statements to conform to the 2007 financial statement presentation. The presentation of the 2006 financial
statements has been changed to show the effect of the bank holding company reorganization and reflects consolidation of holding company assets of $19,000 and net loss of $26,000 for the period ending
December 31, 2006.

The
scheduled maturities of securities available for sale at December 31, 2007 were as follows. Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because some investment

fixed increases in the minimum rent or an increase based on the increase in the consumer price index. Additionally, each lease requires payment towards common area charges, either as a
pro-rata portion of all operating costs or for increases in such costs over a base year. Management expects that in the normal course of business, leases that expire will be renewed

Net
operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $7.8 million for Federal income and $7.5 million for California franchise tax purposes were acquired in the acquisition
of Landmark and are limited in use to approximately $1,010,000 annually. Federal net operating loss carry-forwards, to the extent not used will expire by 2027. California net operating loss
carry-forwards, to the extent not used, will expire by 2017.

A
valuation allowance was established related to the net operating loss carryforwards due to the extended period of time over which it is expected these benefits will be realized. Future
benefits realized from a reduction in this valuation allowance will be recognized as a reduction of goodwill.

The
Company is subject to federal income tax and franchise tax of the state of California. Income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 are open to
audit by federal authorities and returns for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005, 2004 and 2003 are open to audit by California state authorities. Unrecognized tax benefits are not expected
to significantly increase or decrease within the next twelve months.

NOTE GCOMMITMENTS

In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into financial commitments to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial commitments
include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk not recognized in the Company's financial
statements.

The
Company's exposure to loan loss in the event of nonperformance on commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those
instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for loans reflected in the financial statements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE GCOMMITMENTS (Continued)

As
of December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company had the following outstanding financial commitments whose contractual amount represents credit risk:

2007

2006Commitments to Extend Credit

$
98,385,000

87,527,000Standby Letters of Credit


5,994,000


3,224,000$
104,379,000

$
90,751,000


Commitments
to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Since many of the commitments are
expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each client's credit worthiness on a
case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained if deemed necessary by the Company is based on management's credit evaluation of the customer. The majority of the
Company's commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit are secured by real estate.

NOTE HBORROWING ARRANGEMENTS

The Company may borrow up to $18,500,000 overnight on an unsecured basis from its correspondent banks. In addition, the Company has arranged a credit facility
with the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco. Under this credit facility, the Company may borrow up to 25% of its assets subject to providing adequate collateral and fulfilling other conditions of
the credit facility. As of December 31, 2007, the Company had $10,000,000 outstanding in two term FHLB advances. One $5.0 million advance has an interest rate of 4.50%, with a final
maturity of September 14, 2009 and is callable by the FHLB beginning September 14, 2008 and quarterly thereafter. The remaining $5.0 million advance has an interest rate of 4.31%,
with a final maturity of September 13, 2012 and is callable by the FHLB on September 13, 2009.

On
March 31, 2005, the Company issued $5 million in Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Debentures in a private placement offering. This offering was undertaken in order to
raise the Company's capital ratios. Under current risk-based capital guidelines, subordinated debentures qualify for Tier 2 capital treatment up to 50% of Tier 1 capital and,
therefore, increased the Company's total risk-based capital ratio. The terms of the subordinated debt are: a final maturity of June 15, 2020, a right on behalf of the Company for
early redemptions beginning in June, 2010, and an interest rate which floats quarterly based on 3-Month LIBOR plus a spread of 178 basis points. The interest rate on the subordinated debt
as of December 31, 2007 was 6.77%.

On
June 28, 2007, the Company completed a private placement of $5.0 million in aggregate principal amount of floating rate preferred securities (the "Trust Preferred
Securities") through a newly formed Delaware trust affiliate, FPBN Trust I (the "Trust"). The Trust used the proceeds from the sale of the Trust Preferred Securities together with the proceeds from
the sale of Common Securities to purchase $5,155,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Company's unsecured floating rate junior subordinated debt securities due September 1, 2037 issued by
the Company (the "Junior Subordinated Debt Securities"). As of December 31, 2007, the coupon interest rate was 6.52% (3 month LIBOR plus 1.40%) and floats quarterly. The Company shall
have the right, subject to regulatory approval, to redeem the debt securities, in whole or from time to time in part, on any interest payment date on or

after
September 1, 2012. The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the Junior Subordinated Debt Securities were used by the Company to fund a portion of the cash consideration in the
acquisition of Landmark.

NOTE IEMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN

The Company has a retirement savings 401(k) plan in which substantially all employees may participate. The Company makes discretionary contributions to the plan.
Total contribution expense for the plan was $95,000 in 2007, $73,000 in 2006 and $53,000 in 2005.

NOTE JSTOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

The 2000 Stock Option Plan (the "2000 Plan") was approved by the stockholders on April 26, 2001, which makes available options on shares of the Company's
common stock for grant to employees, directors and consultants at prices not less than the fair market value of such shares at dates of grant. During 2003 and 2005, the shareholders approved
amendments to the 2000 plan increasing the total shares available under the 2000 Plan to 1,145,976. All options under the 2000 Plan shall expire on such date as the Board of Directors may determine,
but not later than ten years from the date an option is granted, and generally vest over five years. The 2000 Plan provides for accelerated vesting if there is a change of control. The Company
recognized stock-based compensation expense of approximately $105,000 in 2006 and $246,000 in 2007. The related tax benefits were $31,000 and $92,000, for 2006 and 2007, respectively.

On
April 5, 2007, the board of directors of 1st Pacific Bancorp adopted the 1st Pacific Bancorp 2007 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (the
"Omnibus Plan"). The Omnibus Plan, which also became effective on April 5, 2007, provides that any director, employee or consultant (including any prospective director, employee or consultant)
of the Company and any affiliate of the Company shall be eligible to be designated a participant in the Omnibus Plan for purposes of receiving awards. The Board, as administrator of the Omnibus Plan,
has the power to determine the terms of the awards, including the exercise price, the number of shares subject to each award, the vesting and exercisability of the awards and the form of consideration
payable upon exercise.

Subject
to adjustment in certain circumstances, the aggregate number of shares of the Company's common stock that may be issued pursuant to awards granted under the Omnibus Plan is
400,000. The Omnibus Plan provides for the grant of (i) stock options intended to qualify as ISOs under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code to the Company's and its affiliates'
employees and (ii) non-statutory stock options ("NSOs"), stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, unrestricted stock awards, performance unit
awards, performance share awards and other stock based awards (each, an "Award") to the Company's and its affiliates' directors, employees and consultants. The Company may grant performance units and
shares which are awards that will result in a payment to a participant only if performance goals established by the administrator are achieved. The administrator will establish performance goals at
its discretion, which, depending on the extent to which they are met, will determine the number and/or value of performance units and performance shares to be paid to the participant. In the event
that 1st Pacific Bancorp experiences a "change in control," all outstanding stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, unrestricted stock and performance shares
would become immediately vested.

Although
trading in the Company's stock has not been extensive, the stock was quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board and beginning January 3, 2008, began trading on the NASDAQ
® Global Market. The expected volatility is based on historical activity. The expected term represents the estimated average period of time that the options remain outstanding. Since the
Company does not have sufficient historical data on the exercise of stock options, the expected term is based on the "simplified" method that measures the expected term as the average of the vesting
period and the
contractual term. The risk free rate of return reflects the grant date interest rate offered for U.S. Treasury bonds over the expected term of the options.

The
following information and tables present total activity, intrinsic values and unrecognized compensation costs related to the Company's Plans for non-performance based
options, performance based options and non-vested stock grants.

Performance Based Options

During 2007, the Company granted share based option awards to selected executives. Vesting of these awards is contingent upon meeting company-wide
performance goals. Share options under this performance related plan were granted at-the-money, contingently vest over a period of 4 to 5 years, if performance goals are
met and have contractual lives of 10 years.

The
fair value of each performance based option granted was estimated on the date of grant using Black-Scholes option valuation model assuming performance goals will be achieved. If such
goals are not met, no compensation cost is recognized.

related
to the non-vested shares that will be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 3 years.

During
2005, the Company issued a two-for-one stock split of the Company's common stock. All per share data in the financial statements and footnotes have been
adjusted to give retroactive effect of this split.

In
connection with the acquisition of Landmark National Bank, 1st Pacific Bancorp issued substitute warrants to Landmark National Bank warrant holders. Each warrant
allows for the purchase of one share of 1st Pacific Bancorp's common stock for $12.85 per share. All warrants expire on December 31, 2009. As of December 31, 2007, a
total of 25,239 of these warrants remained outstanding and exercisable.

NOTE LFAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the asset or obligation could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other
than in a forced or liquidation sale. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do
not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no market value exists for a significant
portion of the financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial
instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and matters of judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions
could significantly affect the estimates (Also see Note A, New Accounting Pronouncements above).

Fair
value estimates are based on financial instruments both on and off the balance sheet without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business, and the value of assets
and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. Additionally, tax consequences related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a potential effect on fair value
estimates and have not been considered in many of the estimates.

The
following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of significant financial instruments:

Financial
Assets

The
carrying amounts of cash, short-term investments, and due from customers on acceptances, and bank acceptances outstanding are considered to approximate fair value.
Short-term investments include federal funds sold, securities purchased under agreements to resell, and interest bearing deposits with banks. The fair values of investment securities,
including available for sale, are generally based on quoted market prices. The fair value of loans are estimated using a combination of techniques, including discounting estimated future cash flows
and quoted market prices of similar instruments where available.

1st PACIFIC BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY        NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE LFAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)

Financial
Liabilities

The
carrying amounts of deposit liabilities payable on demand, commercial paper, and other borrowed funds are considered to approximate fair value. For fixed maturity deposits, fair
value is estimated by discounting estimated future cash flows using currently offered rates for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The fair value of long-term debt is based on rates
currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities.

Off-Balance
Sheet Financial Instruments

The
fair value of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements. The fair value of these
financial instruments is not material.

The
estimated fair value of financial instruments at December 31 is summarized as follows (amounts in thousands):

NOTE MREGULATORY MATTERS

The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can
initiate certain mandatoryand possibly additional discretionaryactions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Bank's financial
statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank's
assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank's capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative
judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

Quantitative
measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and
Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to

assets (as defined). Management believes, as of December 31, 2007, that the Bank meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

As
of December 31, 2007, the most recent notification from the Federal Reserve Board categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective
action. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank's category. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum
ratios as set forth in the table below. The following table also sets forth the Bank's actual capital amounts and ratios (dollar amounts in thousands):

The
Company is not subject to similar regulatory capital requirements because its consolidated assets do not exceed $500 million, the minimum asset size criteria for bank holding
companies subject to those requirements.

Banking
regulations limit the amount of cash dividends that may be paid without prior approval of the Bank's primary regulatory agency. The California Financial Code provides that a bank
may not make a cash distribution to its shareholders in excess of the lesser of the Bank's undivided profits or the Bank's net income for its last three fiscal years less the amount of any
distribution made by the Bank to shareholders during the same period.

NOTE NMERGER-RELATED ACTIVITY

Effective July 1, 2007, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of Landmark National Bank ("Landmark") and acquired all of its assets and
assumed all of its liabilities. Landmark operated two full-service branch offices in Solana Beach and La Jolla, CA, serving predominately small and middle-market businesses and
professionals in the County of San Diego. Landmark's results of operations are included in the Company's results beginning July 2, 2007. As a result of the acquisition, the Company has expanded
its branch network in San Diego County to seven branch offices, added experienced banking personnel, and added loan and deposit totals complementary to its existing product offerings.

Goodwill
recorded in this transaction is not deductible for income tax purposes. The core deposit intangible will be amortized over the expected account retention, which based on the
associated account types has a weighted-average life of approximately 8 years. Amortization expense on core deposit intangibles began in July 2007 and totaled $98,702 for the six month period
ended December 31, 2007. The Company estimates that total amortization expense will be approximately $198,000 per year from 2008 through 2012. The core deposit intangible will be evaluated
periodically to determine the reasonableness of the projected amortization period by comparing actual deposit retention to projected retention.
