PART I



ITEM 1.Business



General



The Company



Beverly Hills Bancorp Inc. (BHBC or the Company) is
a financial holding company that conducts banking and lending operations in southern California and surrounding states through its wholly-owned subsidiary, First Bank of Beverly Hills, F.S.B. (FBBH or the Bank), and mortgage
investment operations through its investment subsidiary, WFC Inc. (WFC). The Company was incorporated in 1996 and was known as Wilshire Financial Services Group Inc. (WFSG) until August 2004.



Sale of Wilshire Credit Corporation



Through April 2004, the Company was a diversified financial services company
that also conducted loan servicing operations through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Wilshire Credit Corporation (WCC). On April 30, 2004, the Company completed the sale of WCC to Merrill Lynch Mortgage Capital Inc., a division of Merrill
Lynch & Co., New York, NY, for net proceeds of $48.2 million, and realized a gain on the sale of $18.0 million before taxes.



Subsequent to the sale of WCC, the Company has operated principally as a unitary bank holding company. The Company has significantly curtailed, and in
some cases discontinued, the operations of most of its non-bank subsidiaries (with the exception of its mortgage investment operations), and as a result, the operating results of the Companys banking subsidiary, FBBH, comprise nearly the
entire consolidated totals. Consequently, in August 2004 the Company elected to change its name to Beverly Hills Bancorp Inc., which management believes is more reflective of the nature of the Companys current and expected future
operations.



The Companys two defined operating segments
differ in terms of regulatory environment, asset acquisition strategies and funding sources, as summarized below:



| |  | Banking OperationsThe Companys banking subsidiary, FBBH, conducts a banking business focused primarily on niche products, including commercial and multi-family
real estate lending and investments in primarily AAA-rated and government-sponsored enterprise (GSE) mortgage-backed securities. The primary sources of liquidity for the Banks purchases and originations are wholesale certificates
of deposit, retail deposits, Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances and repurchase agreements. The Bank is a federally chartered savings bank and is regulated by the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS). The Bank has applied to
the California Department of Financial Institutions for conversion to a state commercial bank charter. At December 31, 2004, FBBH had total assets of approximately $1.3 billion.
|- |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Mortgage Investment OperationsThe Companys mortgage investment subsidiary, WFC (formerly known as Wilshire Funding Corporation), has acquired mortgage-backed
securities and pools of performing, sub-performing and non-performing residential and commercial loans. WFC conducts certain of these activities with an institutional investor where such investments aligned WFCs interests with those of the
institutional investor. WFCs funding sources have consisted primarily of commercial bank financing and co-investors, with debt service repayment terms that generally parallel the cash flows of the underlying collateral.
|- |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The Companys administrative headquarters
are located at 23901 Calabasas Road, Suite 1050, Calabasas, California 91302, and its telephone number is (818) 223-8084. The Bank conducts its activities through its branch in Beverly Hills, California. As of December 31, 2004, the Company had 59
full-time and 2 part-time employees.



The Company maintains an
internet web site at www.bhbc.com and makes available its annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and other relevant information free of charge.

BANKING OPERATIONS



Business Strategy



The Bank has a modified wholesale banking strategy that includes commercial real estate lending funded by a mixture of borrowings, wholesale
and retail deposits. The primary strategy for increasing the Banks lending volume is to be a premier relationship portfolio lender by providing rapid response and processing for commercial loan opportunities. The Banks business strategy
focuses on the following principal business activities:



| |  |  | Commercial and Multi-Family Mortgage Lending
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Retail Deposit Operation
| | - |  | ------------------------



| |  |  | Wholesale Deposit Funding
| | - |  | -------------------------



Commercial and Multi-Family Mortgage Lending



The Bank originates loans through four primary avenues: (1) directly with borrowers, (2) through its relationships with brokers, (3) participations with other banking institutions and (4) purchases through the
secondary mortgage market. The Banks loan origination products consist of permanent commercial real estate loans to real estate investors for apartments, retail centers, office properties, industrial properties and similar projects. The Bank
also purchases and participates in commercial loans originated by other lenders. The Banks target customers for its commercial lending are primarily borrowers and developers who are engaged in managing, improving and maintaining commercial and
multi-family properties, and whose primary source of income is their portfolio of real properties.



Retail Deposit Operation



The current Beverly Hills branch office was acquired in June 2000. As of December 31, 2004, the branch serviced $253.6 million in retail deposits and more than 3,700 accounts. The Beverly Hills branch gathers deposits (historically time
certificates of deposit) from the surrounding community. In 2002, the branch expanded its product line in order to attract more stable transactional accounts. As of December 31, 2004, total transactional deposits exceeded $155 million, as
compared with the January 2002 figure of $30.5 million.



The Bank is constructing a second branch at its corporate headquarters in Calabasas, California, which is scheduled to open in March 2005. The deposit gathering strategy employed at the Beverly Hills branch will be duplicated at the new
branch. The Bank believes that the Calabasas deposit market is substantial and currently is penetrated only by three large institutions, and thus lacks the presence of a community bank.



Wholesale Deposit Funding



A primary source of liquidity for the Banks loan originations and acquisitions is wholesale certificates of deposit, which the Bank acquires from
the national market through successful operation of its money desk. Wholesale deposit funding is a function of setting and advertising the Banks deposit interest rates with trust departments and institutional investment fund managers. The
wholesale deposit marketplace (primarily certificates of deposit) consists of the following three sources of funds: (1) indirect deposits placed by independent brokers; (2) direct wholesale deposits received from credit unions, savings associations,
trust departments of banks, pension funds, insurance companies and government agencies; and (3) Depository Trust Corporation brokered deposits, which consist of retail deposits which have been pooled into large blocks by Wall Street firms and
regional brokerage houses. The Bank uses all of these sources, depending on its funding and liquidity needs.



Under FDIC regulations, FDIC-insured institutions that are not well-capitalized under the prompt corrective action rules may not accept
brokered deposits without the prior approval of the FDIC. In addition, the Bank believes that if it is not adequately capitalized it would have greater difficulty in obtaining certificates of

deposit through its money desk or deposit brokers and may have to pay higher rates to continue to attract those deposits. Accordingly, the failure of the
Bank to remain well-capitalized or adequately capitalized could have a material adverse affect on the Bank.



Competition



The
Banks peer group consists of approximately seven other local and regional thrifts that focus on smaller loan transactions, primarily in the $1-10 million range, with most originations less than $5 million. Some banks offer construction loans
that have higher pricing and greater margins due to the inherent risks in these products. The Bank primarily competes directly with those portfolio lenders that focus on stabilized income producing property loans. Recent acquisitions in the banking
industry have reduced the number of financial institutions serving the Banks target deposit customers, and as a result, few independent banks remain in western Los Angeles County. The Bank believes that the super-regional financial
institutions do not adequately service the customers who comprise the Banks target market, and that the smaller regional banks are better able to provide quality service through closer customer relationships and more rapid response to
commercial loan opportunities.



Origination and Acquisition of Mortgage
Loans



The Bank originates and acquires high-quality
first-mortgage loans secured by multi-family residential and commercial properties. The following table sets forth the composition of the Banks portfolio of loans by type of loan at the dates indicated.

Scheduled contractual principal repayments do not reflect the actual
maturities of mortgage loans because of prepayments and, in the case of conventional mortgage loans, due-on-sale clauses. The average life of mortgage loans, particularly fixed-rate loans, tends to increase when current mortgage loan rates are
substantially higher than rates on existing mortgage loans and, conversely, decrease when current mortgage loan rates are substantially lower than rates on existing mortgages. Throughout the past three years, the average lives of both fixed and
adjustable-rate loans have shortened significantly, as a result of rapid prepayments triggered by the continuing low interest-rate environment. However, a substantial number of loans in the Banks portfolio have prepayment penalties, which tend
to slow the repayment rate and provide additional fee income to the Bank in the event of early repayment.

other things, (i) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (ii) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (iii) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the
issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.



Management has the ability and intent to hold the securities classified as held to maturity until they mature, at which time the Company will receive full value for the securities. Furthermore, as of December 31,
2004, management also had the ability and intent to hold the securities classified as available-for-sale for a period of time sufficient for a recovery of cost. The unrealized losses are largely due to increases in market interest rates over the
yields available at the time the underlying securities were purchased. The fair value is expected to recover as the bonds approach their maturity date or repricing date or if market yields for such investments decline. Management does not believe
any of the securities are impaired due to reasons of credit quality. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2004, management believes the impairments detailed in the table above are temporary and no impairment loss has been realized in the Companys
consolidated statement of operations.

Funding Sources



The Banks principal funding sources consist of (1) checking, savings and certificate of deposit accounts generated through its retail branch in
Beverly Hills, California (Retail Deposits); (2) certificates of deposit generated through the Banks money desk (Wholesale Deposits); (3) certificates of deposit generated through independent brokers (Brokered
Deposits); (4) borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (FHLB advances); and (5) repurchase agreements and short-term borrowings with major investment banks. The Banks FHLB advances and repurchase
agreements are secured by certain interest-earning assets. The Banks deposits generally are not collateralized, with the exception of approximately $40 million of public fund certificates of deposit from the State of California, which are
secured by mortgage-backed securities.



FBBH accumulates
deposits through its Beverly Hills branch, local media advertising, and by participating in deposit rate surveys. The Bank competes for deposits to a large extent on the basis of rates and, therefore, could experience difficulties in attracting
deposits if it could not continue to offer deposit rates at levels competitive with those of other banks and savings institutions.



The following table sets forth information relating to the Banks deposits, borrowings and other interest-bearing obligations at the dates indicated.

Asset Quality  Banking Operations



The Bank is exposed to certain credit risks related to the value of the collateral that secures its loans and the ability and willingness of borrowers to
repay their loans. The Bank closely monitors its pools of loans and foreclosed real estate for potential problems on a periodic basis.



Non-Performing Loans.    It is the Banks policy to place loans on non-accrual status when they are over 90 days past due,
or at any time when, in the judgment of management, the probability of collection of interest is deemed to be insufficient to warrant further accrual. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, previously accrued but unpaid interest is reversed by
a charge to interest income.



Foreclosed Real
Estate.    The Bank carries its holdings of foreclosed real estate at the lower of the net carrying value of the underlying loan or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Holding and maintenance costs related to properties
are recorded as expenses in the period incurred. Declines in values of foreclosed real estate subsequent to acquisition are charged to income and recognized as a provision for losses. The following table sets forth the aggregate carrying value of
the Banks holdings of foreclosed real estate (by source of acquisition) at the dates indicated.

Allowance for Loan
Losses.    The Bank maintains an allowance for loan losses at a level believed adequate by management to absorb estimated losses inherent in the loan portfolios. The allowance is increased by provisions for loan losses
charged against operations, recoveries of previously charged off loans, and allocations of discounts on purchased loans, and is decreased by loan charge-offs. Loans are charged off when they are deemed to be uncollectible.



The Bank uses its internal asset review system to evaluate its loan portfolio
and to classify loans as pass, special mention, substandard, doubtful or loss. These terms correspond to varying degrees of risk that the loans will not be collected in part or in full. The frequency at which a specific loan is subjected to internal
asset review depends on the type and size of the loan and the presence or absence of other risk factors, such as delinquency and changes in collateral values. The allowance for loan losses includes specific valuation allowances (SVAs)
established for impaired loans and general valuation allowances (GVAs).



SVAs are in most cases equal to the excess of the unpaid principal balance over the fair value of the collateral for all impaired loans. GVAs are based on quantitative factors that are updated each quarter, and
represent the average of the Banks loss migration factors and benchmark factors. In calculating the allowance, qualitative factors are subject to managements evaluation after consideration of certain credit risk characteristics. These
factors include, but are not limited to, the following: the Banks historical and recent loss experience in its portfolios; the volume, severity and trend of non-performing assets; the extent to which refinances or loan modifications are made
to maintain loans in a current status; known deterioration in credit concentrations or certain classes of loans; loan to value ratios of real estate secured loans; risks associated with specific types of collateral; the quality and effectiveness of
the lending policy, loan purchase policy, internal asset review policy, charge-off, collection and recovery policies; current and anticipated conditions in the general and local economies which might affect the collectibility of the
institutions asset; anticipated changes in the composition or volume of the loan portfolio; and reasonableness standards in accordance with regulatory agency policies. The evaluation of the inherent loss with respect to these factors is
subject to a higher degree of uncertainty because they are not identified with specific problem credits or portfolio components. Management currently intends to maintain an unallocated allowance in the range of 3% to 6% of the total estimated
allowance for loan losses, due to the inherent risk associated with the imprecision in estimating the allowance.



To assess the adequacy of the Banks allowance for loan losses, the portfolio is segmented into three components: impaired loans, homogeneous loans,
and non-homogeneous loans.



n    Impaired loans have been defined as all loan types classified either substandard, doubtful, or loss (including loans which may have been upgraded but which are troubled debt
restructurings). SVAs are measured on a loan-by-loan basis utilizing either the discounted cash flow or fair market value approaches, as defined under the accounting standards for impaired loans.

n    Homogeneous loans have been defined as loans secured by one
to four single-family residences, mobile home loans, and consumer loans, and are analyzed by their respective loan group. GVA loss estimates are measured utilizing the average of loss migration factors and peer benchmark factors for homogeneous
pools.



n    Non-homogeneous loans include the following loan types: multifamily, commercial real estate, bridge loans, construction loans, and commercial unsecured. The non-homogeneous loans are
analyzed individually. GVA loss estimates are developed based upon risk rating utilizing migration analysis, which considers the impact of losses on a loan-by-loan basis. A loss horizon of four years has been developed with the objective of
achieving loss data to capture a full business cycle.



When
FBBH increases the allowance for loan losses related to loans, it records a corresponding increase to the provision for loan losses in the statement of operations. The OTS, as part of its examination process, periodically reviews the Banks
allowances for losses and the carrying values of its assets. There can be no assurance that the OTS will not require additional reserves following future examinations.



The following table sets forth information with respect to the Banks allowance for loan losses by category of loan.

MORTGAGE INVESTMENT OPERATIONS



The Companys Mortgage Investment Operations have been conducted by WFC, a wholly-owned investment subsidiary formed in 1996. WFC has acquired
mortgage-backed securities and pools of performing, sub-performing and non-performing residential and commercial loans. WFC conducts certain of these activities with an institutional investor where such investments align the Companys interests
with those of the institutional investor.



Loan pools acquired
by the Companys Mortgage Investment Operations consist primarily of discounted loans. At December 31, 2004, WFC held approximately $2.4 million of such loans and continues to pursue collection.



The following table sets forth the composition of discounted loans held by
WFC by type of loan at the dates indicated.

|(4) | The real properties that secure WFCs discounted loans are located throughout the United States. At December 31, 2004, the five states with the greatest concentration of
properties securing discounted loans were Oregon, California, Florida, Texas and Georgia, in which WFC held $2.6 million, $0.7 million, $0.3 million, $0.3 million and $0.3 million principal amount of loans, respectively.

The carrying value of WFCs subordinated mortgage-backed securities at
December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 totaled $0.3 million, $0.9 million and $1.8 million, respectively. The related short-term repurchase agreement which financed these securities has been repaid in full.



WFCs funding sources consist primarily of borrowings with a co-investor
and commercial bank financing. The contractual repayment terms of these debt facilities generally parallel the cash flows of the assets serving as collateral.



Asset Quality  Mortgage Investment Operations



WFC is exposed to certain credit risks related to the value of the collateral that secures its loans and the ability of borrowers to repay their loans.
The Company monitors its pools of loans and foreclosed real estate for potential problems on a periodic basis.



Non-Performing Loans.    It is the Companys policy to place loans on non-accrual status when they are over 90 days past
due, or at any time when, in the judgment of management, the probability of collection of interest is deemed to be insufficient to warrant further accrual. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, previously accrued but unpaid interest is
reversed by a charge to interest income.



Foreclosed Real
Estate.    WFC carries its holdings of foreclosed real estate at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Holding and maintenance costs related to properties are recorded as expenses in the period
incurred. Declines in values of foreclosed real estate subsequent to acquisition are charged to income and recognized as a valuation allowance. Subsequent increases in the valuation of real estate owned are reflected as a reduction in the valuation
allowance, but not below zero, and credited to income. The following table sets forth the aggregate carrying value of WFCs holdings of foreclosed real estate, by source of acquisition, at the dates indicated.

Allowance for Loan
Losses.    WFC maintains an allowance for loan losses at a level believed adequate by management to absorb estimated incurred losses in the loan portfolios. The allowance is increased by provisions



15

##### Table of Contents

for loan losses charged against operations, recoveries of previously charged-off loans, and allocations of discounts on purchased loans, and is decreased by
loan charge-offs. Loans are charged off when they are deemed to be uncollectible.



When the Company acquires pools of discounted loans, it records an increase to the allowance for loan losses by allocating a portion of the purchase discount deemed to be associated with measurable credit risk.
Amounts allocated to the allowance for loan losses from purchase discounts do not increase the provision for loan losses recorded in the statement of operations; rather they decrease the amounts of the purchase discounts that are accreted into the
interest income over the lives of the loans. If, after the initial allocation of the purchase discount to the allowance for loan losses, management subsequently identifies the need for additional allowances against discounted loans, the additional
allowances are established through charges to the provision for loan losses.



DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS  LOAN SERVICING



From its formation in 1999 until April 2004, WCC conducted the Companys Loan Servicing Operations. WCC provided a variety of loan portfolio management services, including billing, portfolio administration and collection services for
pools of loans. As of April 2004, WCC serviced over $6 billion principal balance of loans for more than 500 individual and institutional investors and government agencies.



As discussed previously, on April 30, 2004 the Company completed the sale of WCC to Merrill Lynch Mortgage Capital Inc.
Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of WCC have been combined and presented in single line-items on the Companys consolidated statements of financial condition. In addition, WCCs operating results, and the gain on the sale of WCC,
have been removed from the Companys results from continuing operations on the Consolidated Statements of Operations, and have been presented separately in a single caption as Income from discontinued operations.



From May 31, 1999 through September 30, 2002, WCC was a majority-owned
(50.01%) subsidiary of the Company. In October 2002, pursuant to a litigation settlement, the Company purchased the 49.99% minority interest in WCC, and owned 100% of the subsidiary until its sale. The 49.99% interest not held by the Company is
reflected as minority interest in the Companys consolidated financial statements for the periods prior to the purchase.



ITEM 2.Properties



The Companys and the Banks headquarters are located in Calabasas, California, where the Bank leases approximately 16,500 square feet of office space pursuant to a lease agreement expiring in August 2014. The Bank leases its
branch office in Beverly Hills, California pursuant to a lease expiring September 30, 2008. The Bank currently is in the process of constructing a second branch adjacent to its Calabasas offices. This new branch is expected to open in March 2005.



The Company believes that its facilities are suitable and
adequate for its present business purposes and for the foreseeable future.



ITEM 3.Legal Proceedings



Effective in December 2004, the Bank reached a settlement in the bankruptcy of Commercial Loan Corporation (CLC) in connection with a lawsuit filed by the Bank against CLC and others regarding a $10.5
million loan portfolio which the Bank purchased from CLC in 2003. As a result of the settlement, the CLC bankruptcy trustee in December 2004 released to the Bank $0.4 million of previously escrowed interest payments made on the loans in this
portfolio, and the Bank has assumed the servicing of the loans. Accordingly, these loans have been reclassified as performing assets, and the Bank has recorded previously unrecognized interest income of $0.4 million. The impact of this settlement
has been reflected in the Companys financial results as of and for the year ended December 31, 2004.

On May 13, 2002, the Company entered into an agreement to resolve all issues with all of the plaintiffs
in litigation arising from the financial collapse of Capital Consultants LLC (CCL). All of the parties involved have completed their obligations under the settlement agreement, and this litigation was dismissed in February 2005. The
execution of the settlement agreement does not affect BHBCs complete denial of all such claims. In 2002, the Company recorded a $3.6 million provision for estimated expenses and losses in connection with the settlement, $0.6 million in related
charges, and approximately $0.55 million in legal fees and expenses, net of insurance reimbursement, associated with finalizing and implementing this settlement. The settlement is expected to eliminate most of the Companys future costs arising
from the financial collapse of CCL. However, the Company expects to incur additional expenses in connection with legal costs for a prior officer arising from the events that gave rise to the litigation. Such expenses totaled $0.9 million, $2.5
million and $1.7 million, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002. The Company expects these costs to continue to decline in future periods.



In June 2004, a former officer of the Company, pursuant to a plea bargain, pleaded guilty to two felony counts in connection
with certain criminal proceedings against him arising out of the financial collapse of CCL. As part of this plea bargain, the former officer agreed to pay restitution in the amount of $2 million. The former officer has made a claim against the
Company for this amount, asserting that he is entitled to indemnification under Delaware law. The Company disagrees with this assertion and intends to contest the claim vigorously.



The Company is a defendant in other legal actions arising from transactions conducted in the ordinary course of business.
Some of these claims involve individual borrowers demanding material amounts for alleged damages. Management, after consultation with legal counsel, and based on prior experience with consumer claims, believes the ultimate liability, if any, arising
from such actions will not materially affect the Companys consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

ITEM 7.Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations



The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of Beverly Hills Bancorp Inc. and the
notes thereto included elsewhere in this filing. References in this filing to Beverly Hills Bancorp Inc., BHBC, the Company, we, our, and us refer to Beverly Hills Bancorp Inc.
and our subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise.



Results of Operations2004 Compared to 2003



Through April 30, 2004, Beverly Hills Bancorp Inc., then known as Wilshire Financial Services Group Inc., conducted operations in three principal business segments: (1) community banking operations (referred to herein as our Banking
Operations) through our wholly-owned subsidiary, First Bank of Beverly Hills, F.S.B. (FBBH or the Bank); (2) specialized mortgage loan servicing operations through Wilshire Credit Corporation (WCC); and (3)
mortgage investment operations through WFC Inc. (WFC, then known as Wilshire Funding Corporation ).



Sale of Wilshire Credit Corporation



On April 30, 2004, we completed the sale of WCC, our wholly-owned loan servicing subsidiary, to Merrill Lynch Mortgage Capital Inc. (Merrill
Lynch), a division of Merrill Lynch & Co., New York, NY, for net proceeds of $48.2 million, and realized a gain on the sale of $18.0 million before taxes.



Subsequent to the sale of WCC, we have operated primarily as a unitary bank holding company. Consequently, our business
strategy is focused on the growth and profitability of our banking subsidiary, FBBH, through (1) originations and purchases of commercial real estate and multi-family mortgage loans and (2) investments in primarily AAA-rated and
government-sponsored enterprise (GSE) mortgage-backed securities. The Bank has filed an application with the California Department of Financial Institutions (CDFI) for conversion to a state commercial bank charter. Management
believes that a CDFI charter would be better aligned with the Banks strategic business plan, by providing FBBH with greater flexibility in its operations and increased opportunities for growth.



CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES



The Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations, as well as disclosures included elsewhere in this Form 10-K, are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingencies. On an ongoing
basis, we evaluate the estimates used, including, but not limited to, those related to allowances for loan losses, other than temporary impairment in the market values of investment securities and other assets, the realizability of deferred tax
assets, and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience, current conditions and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about
the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources as well as identifying and assessing our accounting treatment with respect to commitments and contingencies. Actual results may differ from these
estimates under different assumptions or conditions.



We
believe the following critical accounting policies involve the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements:



    Mortgage-Backed and Other Investment Securities Available for Sale.    The
Companys mortgage-backed and other investment securities available for sale are reported at their current fair market value. In determining current fair value when quotes from third parties are not available, we estimate the present value of
the anticipated cash flows of the securities based on certain assumptions, including the amount and timing of future repayments, the discount rate to be used, and default rates and expected losses on the loans underlying the securities. If the
change in market value is considered temporary, the unrealized holding gains and losses are

reported net of tax, when applicable, as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders equity. In the event of a
decline in market value, management must evaluate whether the decline is temporary in nature or other than temporary. In making this evaluation, management must consider certain factors, including (a) whether the Company has the ability and intent
to hold the investment for a reasonable period of time sufficient for the recovery of the fair value up to (or beyond) the cost of the investment, and (b) whether evidence indicating that the cost of the investment is recoverable within a
reasonable period of time outweighs evidence to the contrary. Declines that are considered other than temporary are reflected as Market valuation losses and impairments in the consolidated statements of operations and not as a direct
reduction to stockholders equity. The Companys portfolio of mortgage-backed and other investment securities available for sale has increased significantly over the past three years and, as of December 31, 2004, represented approximately
25% of consolidated total assets. Consequently, fluctuations in the securities values can have a significant impact on our financial condition and results of operations.



    Allowance for Loan Losses.    The Company maintains an
allowance for loan losses at a level believed adequate by management to absorb estimated losses inherent in the loan portfolios. The allowance is increased by provisions for loan losses charged against operations, recoveries of previously charged
off loans, and allocations of discounts on purchased loans, and is decreased by loan charge-offs. Loans are charged off when they are deemed to be uncollectible.



The Company uses its internal asset review system to evaluate its loan portfolio and to classify loans as pass, special
mention, substandard, doubtful or loss. These terms correspond to varying degrees of risk that the loans will not be collected in part or in full. The frequency at which a specific loan is subjected to internal asset review depends on the type and
size of the loan and the presence or absence of other risk factors, such as delinquency and changes in collateral values. The allowance for loan losses includes specific valuation allowances (SVAs) established for impaired loans and
general valuation allowances (GVAs).



SVAs are in
most cases equal to the excess of the unpaid principal balance over the fair value of the collateral for all impaired loans. GVAs are based on qualitative and quantitative factors that are updated each quarter. The qualitative factors are subject to
managements evaluation after consideration of certain credit risk characteristics. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following: the institutions historical and recent loss experience in its portfolios; the volume,
severity and trend of non-performing assets; the extent to which refinances or loan modifications are made to maintain loans in a current status; known deterioration in credit concentrations or certain classes of loans; loan to value ratios of real
estate secured loans; risks associated with specific types of collateral; the quality and effectiveness of the lending policy, loan purchase policy, internal asset review policy, charge-off, collection and recovery policies; current and anticipated
conditions in the general and local economies which might affect the collectability of the institutions asset; anticipated changes in the composition or volume of the loan portfolio; and reasonableness standards in accordance with regulatory
agency policies. The evaluation of the inherent loss with respect to these factors is subject to a higher degree of uncertainty because they are not identified with specific problem credits or portfolio components. Management currently intends to
maintain an unallocated allowance in the range of 3% to 6% of the total estimated allowance for loan losses, due to the inherent risk associated with the imprecision in estimating the allowance.



To assess the adequacy of the Banks allowance for loan losses, the
portfolio is segmented into three components: impaired loans, homogeneous loans, and non-homogeneous loans.



| |  |  | Impaired loans have been defined as all loan types classified either substandard, doubtful, or loss (including loans which may have been upgraded but which are troubled debt
restructurings). SVAs are measured on a loan-by-loan basis utilizing either the discounted cash flow or fair market value approaches, as defined under the accounting standards for impaired loans.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Homogeneous loans have been defined as loans secured by one to four single-family residences, mobile home loans, and consumer loans, and are analyzed by their respective loan
group. GVA loss estimates are measured utilizing peer benchmark factors for homogeneous pools.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | Non-homogeneous loans include the following loan types: multifamily, commercial real estate, bridge loans, construction loans, and commercial unsecured. The
non-homogeneous loans are analyzed individually. GVA loss estimates are developed and based upon risk rating utilizing migration analysis, which considers the impact of losses on a loan-by-loan basis. A loss horizon of four years has been developed
with the objective of achieving loss data to capture a full business cycle.

When the Bank increases the allowance for loan losses related to loans, it records a corresponding increase to the provision for loan losses in the statement of operations. The OTS, as part of its examination process,
periodically reviews the Banks allowances for losses and the carrying values of its assets. There can be no assurance that the OTS will not require additional reserves following future examinations.



When our Mortgage Investment Operations acquire pools of discounted loans, we
record an increase to the allowance for loan losses by allocating a portion of the purchase discount deemed to be associated with measurable credit risk. Amounts allocated to the allowance for loan losses from purchase discounts did not increase the
provision for loan losses recorded in the statement of operations; rather they decreased the amounts of the purchase discounts that are accreted into the interest income over the lives of the loans. If, after the initial allocation of the purchase
discount to the allowance for loan losses, management subsequently identifies the need for additional allowances against discounted loans, the additional allowances are established through charges to the provision for loan losses. Managements
determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on an evaluation of the portfolio, previous loan loss experience, current economic conditions, volume, growth, and composition of the portfolio and other relevant factors. Actual losses may
differ from managements estimates.



    Income Taxes.    At December 31, 2004 we had a total deferred tax asset of $44.2 million. This asset represents the tax effect of future deductible or taxable amounts and is
attributable to net operating loss carryforwards and also to temporary differences between amounts that have been recognized in the financial statements and amounts that have been recognized in the Companys income tax returns. In accounting
for the deferred tax asset, we apply Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires, among other things, that deferred tax assets be reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely
than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.



As of December 31, 2004, we evaluated the positive and negative evidence regarding the future realization of the deferred tax assets. Pursuant to this evaluation, we concluded that the available objective positive
evidence regarding our ability to generate future federal taxable income substantially outweighed the available objective negative evidence regarding future federal taxable income. We also concluded that the objective negative evidence regarding the
ability to generate certain future state taxable income outweighed the available objective positive evidence regarding certain future state taxable income, due primarily to the curtailment of our operations in the state of Oregon subsequent to the
sale of WCC. As a result, we believe it is more likely than not that a substantial amount of our deferred tax assets will be realized in future years, and consequently, we believe, as of December 31, 2004, that the only valuation allowance required
is approximately $6.8 million related to (1) net operating loss carryforwards in Oregon and certain other states and (2) federal net operating loss carryforwards that may not be utilized prior to expiration.



The net deferred tax asset of $37.4 million is reported as an asset in our
consolidated statement of financial condition as of December 31, 2004. However, there can be no assurance that the amount, if any, that we ultimately realize will not differ materially from our assessment. As portions of the deferred tax asset are
realized and the valuation allowance is reduced, the related benefits, to the extent they relate to our post-reorganizational period, are recorded as a deferred tax benefit in our consolidated statements of operations. As benefits relating to our
pre-reorganizational period are realized, they are recorded as a direct increase to stockholders equity.

    Contingencies.    We are party to various legal proceedings, as
discussed above and in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. These matters have a degree of uncertainty associated with them. We continually assess the likely outcomes of these proceedings, the amounts of any related ongoing costs, and
the adequacy of amounts provided for these matters. There also can be no assurance that all matters that may be brought against us or that we may bring against other parties are known to us at any point in time.



CONSOLIDATED RESULTS



Our consolidated net income for the year ended December 31, 2004 was $25.6 million, or $1.20 per diluted share, compared
with $6.9 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2003.



As a result of the sale of WCC, we have presented WCCs operating results under the caption Discontinued operations, separate and apart from Income from continuing operations in our
consolidated statements of operations for each year presented. Our income from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2004 was $14.6 million, or $0.68 per diluted share, compared with $3.4 million, or $0.17 per diluted
share, for the year ended December 31, 2003.



Our income
before taxes from continuing operations was $18.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2004, compared with $5.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. Management believes that pre-tax income represents a more meaningful measure of our
financial results than after-tax net income, as substantially all of the reported income tax expense will not be due and payable as a result of the utilization of our net operating loss and capital loss carryforwards and an additional deduction for
the exercise of nonqualified stock options.



Our consolidated
stockholders equity increased by $44.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2004 to $170.1 million, or $7.93 book value per diluted share. Much of this increase related to certain tax benefits that were realized during the year, as
discussed in further detail below. In addition, the increase reflects our net income for the year (including the gain on the sale of WCC) and the issuance of additional shares of common stock pursuant to the exercise of stock options, partially
offset by $7.9 million in cash dividends on our common stock and net after-tax unrealized losses of $1.5 million on our portfolio of available-for-sale securities and hedging instruments.



The Company realized significant tax benefits in 2004 which directly impacted stockholders equity. As discussed
earlier, we determined as of December 31, 2004 that it was more likely than not that we would realize a significant portion of our deferred tax assets in future years. Consequently, we recorded a reduction in the valuation allowance applicable to
our consolidated deferred tax asset of $22.1 million. Since these deferred tax benefits relate to losses generated prior to our 1999 reorganization, their recognition was recorded as a direct increase to stockholders equity, and not as a
reduction to income tax expense in the consolidated statement of operations. In addition, the increase in stockholders equity reflects a $3.2 million tax benefit from the exercise of nonqualified stock options.



The increase in income from continuing operations in 2004 as compared with
2003 was due primarily to the following factors:



| |  |  | Consolidated net interest income increased by $11.4 million, reflecting significant lending and investment activity, as well as a higher net interest margin and spread, at our
banking subsidiary, FBBH;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Consolidated other income increased by $1.4 million, due primarily to the absence of loan servicing expenses and market impairment charges in 2004; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Consolidated operating expenses declined by $0.6 million, primarily as a result of a $1.7 million decrease in our legal costs for the defense of former executives, partially offset
by $0.6 million in auditing and consulting expenses related to the implementation of Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



These above factors were partially offset by a loan loss provision of $0.4 million in 2004, as compared with loan loss recaptures of $0.5 million in 2003.

Interest Income



A significant portion of our consolidated earnings arises from net interest income, which is the difference between interest income received and interest
expense paid. Net interest income is affected by the relative amount of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the degree of mismatch in the maturity and repricing characteristics of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities, the percentage of discounted loans included in the portfolio and the timing of receipt or accretion of purchase discount.



The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, information regarding the total amount of the Companys income from interest-earning
assets and the resulting average yields, the interest expense associated with interest-bearing liabilities, expressed in dollars and rates, and the net interest spread and net interest margin. (The interest income and expense amounts in the table
below are consolidated, but reflect primarily the results of our Banking Operations.) Information is based on monthly balances during the indicated periods.

##### Table of Contents

The following table describes the extent to which changes in interest rates and changes in volume of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities have affected our interest income and expense during the periods indicated. For each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided on changes
attributable to (i) changes in volume (change in volume multiplied by prior rate), (ii) changes in rate (change in rate multiplied by prior volume) and (iii) total change in rate and volume. Changes attributable to both volume and rate have been
allocated proportionately to the change due to volume and the change due to rate.

|(1) | It is the Banks policy to discontinue the accrual of interest on loans that are over 90 days past due, or at any time when, in the judgment of management, the probability of
collection of interest is deemed to be insufficient to warrant further accrual. Upon such a determination, those loans are placed on non-accrual status and deemed to be non-performing. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, previously accrued
but unpaid interest is reversed by a charge to interest income.

##### Table of Contents

The Banks net interest income was $32.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2004, compared with
$19.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The net interest spread increased by 43 basis points, from 2.19% in 2003 to 2.62% in 2004, and the net interest margin increased from 2.57% to 2.86% for the same periods.



The increase in net interest income in 2004 was primarily attributable to the
Banks significant loan originations and purchases of investment securities in 2004 and in late 2003, utilizing new deposits and low-cost borrowings as funding sources. In addition, the prevailing low-interest rate environment has continued to
impact the Banks interest-bearing liabilities to a greater extent than its interest-earning assets, as indicated by the higher spreads and margins in 2004. The Banks overall cost of funds declined by 80 basis points, from 3.21% for the
year ended December 31, 2003 to 2.41% for the year ended December 31, 2004. In contrast, the Banks average yield on its interest-earning assets declined by only 37 basis points, from 5.40% for 2003 to 5.03% for 2004.



The Banks interest income on mortgage-backed and other investment
securities was $12.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2004, compared with $9.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase in 2004 was due to an increase in the average investment balance, primarily as a result of the
Banks purchases of $238.4 million of mortgage-backed and other investment securities in 2004, in addition to significant purchases in the latter half of 2003. As a result of the recent rise in market interest rates, the Banks yield for
2004 increased by one basis point over the yield for 2003. The recent slight increases in market rates of interest also have resulted in a slowing of the prepayment rates on these securities in 2004 as compared with 2003.



The Banks interest income on loans was $45.3 million for the year ended
December 31, 2004, compared with $33.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase was due to a $279.3 million increase in the average loan balance in 2004, which resulted from both higher loan originations and a slowing of
prepayments as compared with the prior year. The Banks originations and purchases totaled $439.0 million in 2004, compared with $293.0 million in 2003, and its loan repayments declined by nearly $29 million in 2004 despite the larger
portfolio. This increase in average loan volume was partially offset by a 73-basis point decline in average yield, from 6.46% for the year ended December 31, 2003 to 5.73% for the year ended December 31, 2004.



FBBHs interest expense on deposits totaled $12.4 million for the year
ended December 31, 2004, compared with $11.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase in 2004 resulted from a significant increase in the average deposit balance, as the Bank raised new brokered certificates of deposit in late 2003
and early 2004 to finance its loan originations and purchases. The Bank has since permitted the run-off of its certificates of deposit and has utilized short-term borrowings and FHLB advances to finance its asset acquisitions. The higher average
deposit volume in 2004 was largely offset by a decline in cost of 84 basis points, from 2.90% for the year ended December 31, 2003 to 2.06 % for the year ended December 31, 2004.



The Banks interest expense on borrowings for the year ended December 31, 2004 was $13.0 million, compared with $11.3
million for the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase was due to a significant increase in the average balance of outstanding borrowings. Beginning in the second quarter of 2004, the Bank, after receiving a deposit of $52 million from BHBC
representing primarily the gross proceeds from the sale of WCC, increasingly utilized advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (FHLB) and repurchase agreements as its primary funding source in lieu of higher-costing certificates of
deposit. In August 2004, the FHLB raised the Banks authorized borrowing limit from 35% to 40% of the Banks total assets as of the previous quarter-end. These increases in the average borrowing balance were partially offset by a decline
in the cost of borrowings of 74 basis points, from 3.61% for 2003 to 2.87% for 2004.



Provision for Loan Losses



Provisions
for losses on loans are charged to operations to maintain an allowance for losses on the loan portfolio at a level which the Bank believes is adequate based on an evaluation of the inherent risks in the portfolio. The Banks evaluation is based
on an analysis of the loan portfolio, historical loss experience, current economic conditions and trends, collateral values, and other relevant factors.

##### Table of Contents

Based on its quarterly evaluations of the adequacy of its loan loss reserves, the Bank recorded a
provision for loan losses of $0.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. For the year ended December 31, 2003, the Bank recaptured $0.75 million of loan loss reserves, primarily as a result of the sale of its performing mobile home loan
portfolio in June 2003.



The credit quality of our assets is
affected by many factors beyond our control, including local and national economic conditions, and the possible existence of facts which are not known to us which adversely affect the likelihood of repayment of various loans in our loan portfolio
and realization of the collateral upon a default. Accordingly, we can give no assurance that we will not sustain loan losses materially in excess of the allowance for loan losses.



Realized Gains on Sales



The Bank realized gains totaling $0.4 million on sales of $34.3 million of mortgage-backed and other investment securities in 2004. For the year ended
December 31, 2003, the Banks realized gains totaled $0.2 million on sales of $9.2 million of mortgage-backed securities.



Net gains on sales of securities are generated primarily in declining interest rate environments. Accordingly, gains or losses from sales of securities
may fluctuate significantly from period to period, and the results in any period are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be attained in future periods.



Other Income



The Banks other income was $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2004, compared with $0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. This
increase was due primarily to the transfer of the servicing duties on the Banks loan portfolio from WCC to the Bank beginning January 1, 2004. As a result, the Bank no longer pays a fee to WCC for servicing a majority of its loan portfolio.



Compensation and Employee Benefits Expense



The Banks compensation and employee benefits expense totaled $6.2
million for the year ended December 31, 2004, compared with $4.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase in 2004 reflects an increase in incentive compensation, primarily as a result of the high level of loan fundings in 2004 as
compared with the prior year.



Other Expenses



The Banks other expenses were $5.2 million for the year ended December
31, 2004, compared with $5.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The decrease in 2004 was largely due to the accrual of $0.4 million of settlement costs in December 2003 in connection with litigation related to the Banks sale of its
Bankcard operations in June 2001. The Banks audit expenses declined by $0.15 million in 2004 as a result of the allocation of costs related to Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404 to the holding company. In addition, depreciation expense declined by
$0.1 million, as many of the Banks leasehold improvements became fully depreciated as of August 31, 2004, when the original lease at its Calabasas, California offices expired. These decreases were partially offset by slight increases in other
expense categories. The Bank incurred higher professional fees in 2004 as a result of consulting fees incurred in its conversion to an in-house loan servicing system. In addition, the Banks legal expenses increased by $0.1 million, due
primarily to litigation costs associated with the bankruptcy of Commercial Loan Corporation (see Item 3Legal Proceedings). In most other expense categories, costs remained consistent from 2003 to 2004, reflecting the Banks efforts to
control overhead.

Mortgage-Backed
and Other Securities Available for Sale.    The Banks total portfolio of mortgage-backed securities (MBS) available for sale increased by $83.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2004, primarily as a result of
$238.4 million in purchases of AAA-rated and GSE MBS. These new purchases were partially offset by principal repayments of $126.6 million, though the rate of prepayments slowed in 2004 as compared with 2003. The Bank sold $24.2 million of AAA-rated
and GSE MBS in 2004, and recorded unrealized holding losses on its portfolio of $2.3 million, as a result of an increase in market rates of interest beginning in the second quarter.



The Banks portfolio of other investment securities available for sale decreased by $10.3 million during the year ended
December 31, 2004. This decrease was due to the sale of $10.1 million of GSE securities and an increase in unrealized holding losses of $0.2 million.



Loans, net.    The Banks portfolio of loans, net of discounts and allowances, increased by $304.6 million for the
year ended December 31, 2004. The Bank originated $289.4 million of commercial real estate and multi-family mortgage loans, and purchased an additional $149.6 million of primarily multi-family mortgage loans. These additions to the portfolio were
partially offset by $131.2 million of principal repayments and $2.1 million of foreclosures during the year.



Real Estate Owned.    The Banks portfolio of real estate owned increased by approximately $1.5 million during
the year ended December 31, 2004. This increase was due to approximately $2.1 million in new foreclosures, partially offset by $0.4 million in sales and $0.2 million in write-downs of properties. In January and February 2005, the Bank sold the
three properties with a total carrying value of $1.8 million for a gain of $0.2 million.



Deposits.    The Banks deposits increased by $106.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. The Bank raised
a significant volume of new brokered certificates of deposit through April 2004 in order to finance

its new loan originations. Beginning in the second quarter of 2004, the Bank, after receiving a deposit of $52 million from BHBC representing primarily the
gross proceeds from the sale of WCC, permitted the run-off of its higher-rate certificates of deposit and increasingly utilized FHLB advances and repurchase agreements as its primary funding source. The Banks deposits at December 31, 2004
included a total of $38.1 million in demand deposits held by BHBC and WFC. However, those deposits are eliminated in consolidation and are not reflected in total deposits on the Companys consolidated statements of financial condition.



Repurchase
Agreements.    The Banks repurchase agreements increased by $32.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. This increase was due to repurchase agreement renewals totaling $185.0 million, partially offset by
$153.0 million in repayments. These borrowings are used primarily to finance the Banks purchases of mortgage-backed and other investment securities.



FHLB Advances.    The Banks FHLB advances increased by $225.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2004, as a
result of $530.8 million in new advances, partially offset by maturities of $305.3 million. As discussed above, the Bank has utilized FHLB advances as the primary funding source for its asset acquisitions after receiving BHBCs deposit of the
proceeds from the sale of WCC. In August 2004, the FHLB raised the Banks authorized borrowing limit from 35% to 40% of the Banks total assets as of the previous quarter-end.



Net Worth.    The Banks total net worth increased by $28.9 million for the year
ended December 31, 2004. This increase reflects the Banks net income of $13.0 million and $17.1 million in capital contributions from BHBC. Approximately $9.6 million of this capital contribution was made through the forgiveness of a portion
of the Banks income tax liability to BHBC, in accordance with a tax-sharing agreement between the Company and the Bank; the remaining $7.5 million contribution was in cash. These increases were partially offset by $1.2 million in net after-tax
unrealized losses on the Banks portfolio of available-for-sale securities and hedging instruments.



Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements



The Bank is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and involve, to varying degrees, elements of risk in excess of the
amount recognized in the balance sheet.



At December 31, 2004
and 2003, the Bank had outstanding commitments to extend credit of approximately $11.3 million and $53.6 million, respectively. The Bank also had unfunded commitments under lines of credit of $0.4 million and $0.5 million at December 31, 2004 and
2003, respectively. These commitments expose the Bank to credit risk in excess of amounts reflected in the consolidated financial statements. The Bank receives collateral to support loans and commitments to extend credit for which collateral is
deemed necessary.



Swap Agreement



In 2002 the Bank entered into an interest rate swap agreement which
effectively fixed the interest rate paid on $35 million, as of December 31, 2003, of borrowings under reverse repurchase agreements. Under this agreement, the Bank received a floating rate of interest and paid a fixed rate of interest. The swap
expired in December 2004. The fair value of the swap as of December 31, 2003 was an unfavorable $257 thousand. Since the swap qualified for cash flow hedging for accounting purposes, that amount was shown, net of taxes, in accumulated other
comprehensive income as an unrealized loss.



Regulatory Capital Requirements



Federally insured savings associations such as FBBH are
required to maintain minimum levels of regulatory capital. Those standards generally are as stringent as the comparable capital requirements imposed on national banks. The OTS has indicated that the capital level of FBBH exceeds the minimum
requirement for well capitalized status under provisions of the Prompt Corrective Action Regulation.

Upon conversion to a
state commercial bank charter, the Bank would be subject to the same capital requirements, and expects to remain categorized as a well capitalized bank.



Liquidity and Capital Resources



Liquidity is the measurement of the Banks ability to meet potential cash requirements, including ongoing commitments to repay borrowings, fund
investments, purchase pools of loans, and make payments for general business purposes. The Banks sources of liquidity include wholesale and retail deposits, FHLB advances (up to 40% of the Banks total assets as of the previous
quarter-end), repurchase agreements, whole loan and mortgage-backed securities sales, and net interest income. Liquidity in the Banks operations is actively managed on a daily basis and periodically reviewed by the Banks Board of
Directors.



At December 31, 2004, the Banks cash balances
totaled $15.5 million, compared with $13.5 million at December 31, 2003. The increase in cash was due primarily to new borrowings and an increase in deposits during the year, partially offset by loan originations and purchases of loans and
mortgage-backed securities.



At December 31, 2004, the Bank had
$422.8 million of certificates of deposit. Scheduled maturities of certificates of deposit during the 12 months ending December 31, 2005 and thereafter amounted to $343.1 million and $79.7 million, respectively. Wholesale deposits generally are more
responsive to changes in interest rates than core deposits, and thus are more likely to be withdrawn by the investor upon maturity as changes in interest rates and other factors are perceived by investors to make other investments more attractive.
Bank management continues its effort to reduce the Banks exposure to interest rate changes by utilizing funding sources whose repricing characteristics more closely match those of the Banks interest-earning assets.



The Bank is party to various contractual financial obligations, including
repayment of borrowings, operating lease payments and commitments to extend credit. The table below presents the Banks future financial obligations outstanding as of December 31, 2004:

MORTGAGE INVESTMENT OPERATIONS



We have conducted our Mortgage Investment Operations through WFC, our wholly
owned investment subsidiary. Some of WFCs activities have been conducted with a co-investor, which has participation interests in the returns generated by the assets that serve as collateral for the loans. The share of such activities held by
this co-investor is reflected as Investor participation interest in the Companys consolidated statements of operations.

Interest Income and Interest
Expense



WFCs interest income was $2.0 million
for the year ended December 31, 2004, compared with $2.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The decrease in 2004 was due primarily to a decline in interest on mortgage-backed securities as a result of runoff in WFCs MBS portfolio,
which has been triggered by prepayments on the loans underlying the securities. WFC records the receipt of such payments directly to interest income, as its portfolio of securities has been written down to an amortized cost of zero.



WFCs interest expense was $13 for the year ended December 31, 2004,
compared with $74 for the year ended December 31, 2003. The decrease was due to WFCs repayment of its outstanding borrowing facility during the second quarter of 2004.



Other Loss, Net

Other loss includes the co-investors share of certain investment activities conducted with WFC,
which is reported as Investor participation interest expense in the above table.



(Recapture of) Provision for Loan Losses



WFC recorded a net recapture of loan loss reserves of $0.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2004, compared with a provision for loan losses of $0.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The net
recapture in 2004 was the result of a recapture of $0.4 million pursuant to an evaluation of the allowance for loan losses in December 2004. This was partially offset by a $0.2 million write-down of a $24 million portfolio which was sold in December
2004.



Compensation and Employee Benefits Expense



WFC is managed and operated by employees of the holding company, and thus no
longer records compensation and employee benefits expense. As part of the Companys reallocation of operating expenses among its business segments in the second quarter of 2003, certain employees compensation was transferred to WCC from
WFC. Those employees remained with WCC subsequent to its sale, and the Company will no longer incur their related compensation expense.



Other Expenses



WFC incurred minimal other operating expenses in year ended December 31, 2004, compared with $0.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The
decrease was primarily due to the reallocation of certain assets and expense categories from WFC to the Companys other business segments in the second quarter of 2003.

Mortgage-Backed
Securities Available for Sale.    WFCs portfolio of mortgage-backed securities available for sale decreased by $0.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2004 as a result of a decline in the fair value of the
securities. WFC received $0.9 million in principal and interest repayments in 2004 on its mortgage-backed

securities, which have been written down to an amortized cost of zero. Consequently, any payments received on these securities are recorded directly to
interest income.



Discounted Loans,
net.    WFCs discounted loans, net decreased by approximately $1.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2004. WFC received principal payments of $1.6 million on its loans during the year and, in December 2004,
sold $0.4 million book value ($24.0 million unpaid principal balance) of loans to a third party. These decreases in the portfolio were partially offset by WFCs acquisition of $0.4 million of loans from WCC in April 2004, prior to WCCs
sale. The Company is continuing to explore its business opportunities with respect to WFCs loan portfolio, which may include opportunities developed in conjunction with the Bank.



Intercompany Receivables.    Intercompany receivables increased by
approximately $1.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2004. This increase was primarily due to a transfer of funds from WFC to BHBC to meet the holding companys operating costs.



Investment Financing.    WFCs
investment financing consisted of a debt facility with the co-investor. WFC repaid this borrowing in full during the second quarter of 2004.



Liquidity and Capital Resources



WFCs sources of cash flow include primarily net interest income and repayments on its portfolio of loans and mortgage-backed securities. WFCs
liquidity is actively managed and periodically reviewed by our Board of Directors. This process is intended to ensure the maintenance of sufficient funds to meet WFCs operating needs. Based on our current and expected asset size, capital
levels, and organizational infrastructure, we believe there will be sufficient available liquidity to meet WFCs needs.



HOLDING COMPANY AND MISCELLANEOUS OPERATIONS



Our Holding Company and Miscellaneous Operations consist primarily of other operating expenses not directly attributable to our Banking or Mortgage
Investment Operations, and also include eliminations of intercompany accounts and transactions. During the year ended December 31, 2004, the holding company incurred $0.9 million in legal costs for the defense of former executives, compared with
$2.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The holding company also recorded $0.6 million in external auditing and consulting expenses in 2004 related to the implementation of Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404, and expects to incur additional such
costs in 2005.



The holding companys primary sources of
liquidity include proceeds from the sale of WCC, proceeds from the July 2002 issuance of junior subordinated notes, and payments received from FBBH pursuant to a tax allocation agreement between the Company and the Bank. However, the OTS has limited
the amount of these payments to the lesser of (1) the Banks stand-alone tax liability and (2) the total tax payments made by the Company. In 2003 the Bank remitted a total of $1.2 million to the Company for prior years tax liabilities
under the foregoing formula.



The table below summarizes the
holding companys future financial obligations, including estimated interest based on the current contractual terms, with respect to the junior subordinated notes as of December 31, 2004. The amounts below assume that the notes will be repaid

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS  LOAN SERVICING



The Company previously conducted Loan Servicing Operations through WCC, our loan servicing subsidiary which was formed
pursuant to our June 10, 1999 reorganization. As discussed earlier, on April 30, 2004 the Company completed the sale of WCC to Merrill Lynch Mortgage Capital Inc.



The following table summarizes WCCs income before taxes for the four-month period ended April 30, 2004 and the year
ended December 31, 2003.

As a result of
WCCs sale, its results of operations have been removed from the Companys results from continuing operations on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations, and have been presented separately in a single caption as Income
from operations of discontinued segment for the periods presented.



Results of Operations2003 Compared to 2002



CONSOLIDATED RESULTS



Our consolidated net
income for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $6.9 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, compared with $2.0 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2002.



As a result of the sale of WCC, we have presented the operating results of WCC as Income from discontinued
operations, separate and apart from Income from continuing operations in the consolidated statements of operations for each year presented. Our income from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $3.4
million, or $0.17 per diluted share, compared with approximately $0.9 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2002. Pre-tax income from continuing operations was $5.9 million for 2003, compared with $1.4 million for
2002. WCCs net income was approximately $3.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2003, compared with $1.1 million (net of the interest held by the minority holder) for the year ended December 31, 2002.



Our consolidated stockholders equity increased by $25.5 million during
the year ended December 31, 2003 to $125.5 million, or $6.00 per diluted share. The increase results in part from our net income for the year and the issuance of additional shares of common stock pursuant to the exercise of stock options. In
addition, we recorded significant tax benefits in 2003, primarily through a reduction in the valuation allowance applicable to our deferred tax asset which, in turn, resulted in a net increase in stockholders equity of approximately $21
million. Since these tax benefits relate to losses generated prior to our 1999 reorganization, their recognition was recorded as a direct increase to stockholders equity, and not as a reduction to income tax expense in the consolidated
statement of operations. These increases in equity were partially offset by a $2.9 million decline in after-tax unrealized gains on our portfolio of available-for-sale securities and hedging instruments.

##### Table of Contents

The increase in our income from continuing operations from 2002 to 2003 was primarily attributable to the
following factors:



    We recorded a net recapture
of $0.5 million of loan loss reserves in 2003, versus incurring a loan loss provision of $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2002, for a net improvement of $0.8 million.



    The results for 2002 included approximately $4.75 million in legal fees and expenses related to the settlement
of litigation which arose from events prior to our June 1999 restructuring. We believe that the settlement agreement has eliminated most of our future costs arising from the financial collapse of Capital Consultants LLC (CCL), but we
continue to incur expenses on behalf of a former officer in connection with the above-described litigation. For the year ended December 31, 2003, we incurred approximately $2.5 million of such costs for former officers, compared with approximately
$1.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2002.



    The results for 2002 included $3.6 million in impairment write-downs related to two interest-only mortgage-backed securities (I/Os) at FBBH, with no such charges in 2003. Subsequent to recording the impairment
write-downs, the Bank sold the I/Os in the third and fourth quarters of 2002 for a net realized gain of $0.7 million.



The improvements in operations discussed above were partially offset by the following factors:



    Net interest income decreased by approximately $2.2 million
from 2002 to 2003, primarily as a result of sales and runoff of certain interest-earning assets at our mortgage investment subsidiary.



    Realized gains on sales of loans and investment securities declined by a total of approximately $2.7 million as a result of reduced sales
activity in 2003.



    Holding company expenses for
2003 included increases in our defense costs of former management and interest expense on trust preferred debentures, which together increased expenses by approximately $1.3 million.



Following is a discussion of the operating results and Liquidity of the Companys three business segments: our Banking
Operations, Loan Servicing Operations, and Mortgage Investment Operations.

The Banks net
interest income was $19.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2003, compared with $18.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. The net interest spread increased by 14 basis points, from 2.05% in 2002 to 2.19% in 2003, and the net interest
margin increased from 2.50% to 2.57% for the same periods.



The
increase in net interest income was primarily attributable to the Banks significant loan origination activity in 2003, utilizing new low-cost borrowings as funding sources. The Banks total average interest-earning assets increased by
$39.1 million for 2003, or approximately $7.0 million more than the increase in its average interest-bearing liabilities. This net improvement in earning-asset volume helped mitigate the effects of declining interest rates. As a result, the decrease
in the Banks interest income of $3.4 million was less than the $4.8 million decrease in its interest expense, contributing to the nearly $1.5 million increase in net interest income.



The continuing low interest-rate environment has impacted the Banks
interest-bearing liabilities to a slightly greater extent than its interest-earning assets. For the year ended December 31, 2003, the overall yield on the Banks average interest-earning assets was 5.40%, a decline of 74 basis points from the
6.14% average yield for 2002. However, this drop in yield was exceeded by an 88-basis point decline, from 4.09% to 3.21%, in the Banks cost of interest-bearing liabilities, resulting in the higher net interest spread in 2003.



The Banks interest income on mortgage-backed and other investment
securities was $9.3 million in 2003, compared with $11.2 million for 2002. This decrease was due to a 111-basis point drop in average yield, from 4.88% in 2002 to 3.77% in 2003. Partially offsetting the effects of the lower yield was a $15.9 million
increase in the average asset balance for 2003. Utilizing new debt facilities, the Bank purchased approximately $150 million in AAA-rated mortgage-backed and other investment securities in 2003, including $109 million in the third and fourth
quarters.



The Banks interest income on loans for the
year ended December 31, 2003 was approximately $33.0 million, compared with $34.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. This decrease was due to a decline in the average yield on loans of 62 basis points, from 7.08% for 2002 to 6.46% for
2003, as a result of the continuing decline in interest rates. However, this decline in yield was partially offset by a $27 million increase in the average portfolio balance. The Bank originated and purchased a total of $293 million in new loans in
2003, including approximately $210 million in the third and fourth quarters, resulting in a higher average earning volume despite continuing significant principal repayments.

FBBHs interest expense on deposits decreased by approximately $4.4 million from the year ended
December 31, 2002 to the year ended December 31, 2003. This decrease was the result of declines in both the average balance and average rates paid in 2003 versus 2002. The Bank raised significant amounts of wholesale certificates of deposit in prior
years to fund certain loan acquisitions, but later permitted the run-off of the higher-rate CDs and utilized lower-costing debt facilities as its primary funding source. As a result, the average balance of deposits decreased by $27.5 million, from
approximately $417.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2002 to $390.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The average rate paid on the Banks deposits decreased by 85 basis points from 2002 to 2003.



The Banks interest expense on borrowings for the year ended December
31, 2003 was approximately $11.3 million, compared with approximately $11.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. The decrease in 2003 was due to a 104-basis point decline in the average cost, from 4.65% in 2002 to 3.61% in 2003, reflecting
the continuing declining interest-rate environment. The lower average cost in 2003 was partially offset by the higher average borrowing balance, as the Bank obtained additional FHLB advances to finance its earning-asset acquisitions.



Recapture of Loan Losses



Provisions for losses on loans are charged to operations to maintain an
allowance for losses on the loan portfolio at a level which the Bank believes is adequate based on an evaluation of the inherent risks in the portfolio. The Banks evaluation is based on an analysis of the loan portfolio, historical loss
experience, current economic conditions and trends, collateral values, and other relevant factors.



Based on its quarterly evaluations of the adequacy of its loan loss reserves, the Bank did not record a provision for loan losses in 2003 or 2002. In the
second quarter of 2003, the Bank recaptured $0.75 million of loan loss reserves, primarily as a result of the sale of its performing mobile home loan portfolio.



Realized Gains (Losses)



For the year ended December 31, 2003, the Bank realized gains totaling approximately $0.2 million on sales of $9.2 million of GSE mortgage-backed
securities.



The Bank incurred approximately $1.4 million in
net losses on its investment securities for the year ended December 31, 2002. These losses were due to write-downs in market value totaling $3.6 million related to three interest-only mortgage-backed securities (I/Os), partially offset by
approximately $2.2 million in net realized gains on sales of mortgage-backed and treasury securities. The Bank purchased a total of $13.1 million in I/Os in 2002 as a hedge against possible interest rate increases. However, as rates continued to
decline, the value of the I/Os was adversely affected. Since this decline in market value was deemed to be other than temporary, the write-downs were reflected as Market valuation losses and impairments in the accompanying statements of
operations, and not as a reduction to stockholders equity. The Bank sold the I/Os in the third and fourth quarters of 2002 for a net realized gain of approximately $0.7 million.



Compensation and Employee Benefits Expense



The Banks compensation and benefits totaled approximately $4.6 million for 2003, compared with $4.0 million for 2002.
The increase was due to an increase in the Banks employee head count from 2002 to 2003, primarily as a result of the expansion of its commercial lending operations.



Other Expenses



The Banks other expenses totaled approximately $5.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2003, compared with $5.3 million for the year ended
December 31, 2002. The increase resulted primarily from the accrual of $0.4 million for the settlement of litigation related to the Banks sale of its Bankcard operations in

2001 (see Item 3  Legal Proceedings). In addition, the Bank incurred higher legal expenses in 2003 associated with this litigation. These increases
were partially offset by decreases in other expense categories. The Banks occupancy expenses declined from the prior year due to the sublease of excess office space after the sale of its Bankcard division, and data processing expenses have
dropped as a result of the Banks efforts to control overhead. In addition, depreciation expense has declined as certain equipment and leasehold improvements have become fully depreciated. The Bank did not record any impairment of its goodwill
for the years ended December 31, 2003 or 2002, pursuant to its test on March 31 of both years.



Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements



The Bank is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and involve, to varying degrees, elements of risk in excess of the
amount recognized in the balance sheet.



At December 31, 2003
and 2002, the Bank had outstanding commitments to extend credit of approximately $53.6 million and $1.7 million, respectively. The Bank also had unfunded commitments under lines of credit of $0.5 million and $1.4 million at December 31, 2003 and
2002, respectively. These commitments expose the Bank to credit risk in excess of amounts reflected in the consolidated financial statements. The Bank receives collateral to support loans and commitments to extend credit for which collateral is
deemed necessary.



Swap Agreement



In 2002 the Bank entered into an interest rate swap agreement which
effectively fixed the interest rate paid on $35 million, as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, of borrowings under reverse repurchase agreements. Under this agreement, the Bank received a floating rate of interest and paid a fixed rate of interest. The
fair value of the swap as of December 31, 2003 and 2002 was unfavorable by $257 thousand and $243 thousand, respectively. The swap qualifies for cash flow hedging for accounting purposes, and therefore, these amounts are shown, net of taxes, in
accumulated other comprehensive income as unrealized losses. The swap matured in December 2004.



Regulatory Capital Requirements



Federally insured savings associations such as FBBH are required to maintain minimum levels of regulatory capital. Those standards generally are as stringent as the comparable capital requirements imposed on national banks. The OTS has
indicated that the capital level of FBBH exceeds the minimum requirement for well capitalized status under provisions of the Prompt Corrective Action Regulation.



The following table sets forth the Banks regulatory capital ratios at December 31, 2003.

MORTGAGE INVESTMENT OPERATIONS



BHBC has conducted its Mortgage Investment Operations through WFC, our wholly-owned investment subsidiary. Some of
WFCs activities are conducted with a co-investor which has participation interests in the returns generated by the assets that serve as collateral for the loans. The share of such activities held by this co-investor is reflected as
Investor participation interest in the Companys consolidated statements of operations.



The following table compares WFCs income before taxes for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 (dollars in thousands).

Interest Income and Interest
Expense



WFCs interest income was approximately
$2.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2003, compared with $6.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. The decrease in 2003 was due to a decline in loan volume as a result of WFCs sale of approximately $3.3 million unpaid
principal balance of loans in June 2002 and also due to principal repayments. In addition, in 2002, WFC recorded approximately $0.3 million in additional loan interest income on the recovery of discounts and reserves on loans which terminated during
that period. WFCs interest on mortgage-backed securities declined by approximately $0.9 million from 2002 to 2003, due to the runoff of WFCs MBS portfolio as a result of prepayments on the loans underlying the securities. WFC records the
receipt of such payments directly to interest income, as its portfolio of securities has been written down to an amortized cost of zero.



WFCs interest expense decreased by approximately $0.4 million from the year ended December 31, 2002 to the year ended December 31, 2003. This
decrease resulted from WFCs repayments of debt facilities in June 2002 with the proceeds from the loan sale described above and also from the continuing decline in interest rates.



Realized (Losses) Gains



WFCs realized losses for the year ended December 31, 2003 reflect impairment charges taken on certain investments and a loss on a sale of loans. For
the year ended December 31, 2002, WFC realized a gain from the sale of approximately $3.3 million unpaid principal balance of loans in June 2002. Since the loans sold were originally acquired with a co-investor, one half of the gain on sale was
shared with the co-investor and included in Investor participation interest as discussed below.

Other loss includes
the co-investors share of certain investment activities conducted with WFC, which is reported as Investor participation interest expense in the above table. The larger investor participation interest expense amount in 2002
primarily reflects the co-investors 50% share of the gain on WFCs loan sale in June 2002.



Compensation and Employee Benefits Expense



WFCs compensation and employee benefits decreased by approximately $0.5 million from the year ended December 31, 2002 to the year ended December 31, 2003. As part of the Companys reallocation of operating
expenses among its business segments, certain employees compensation was transferred to WCC from WFC, commencing in the second quarter of 2003. Those employees remained with WCC subsequent to its sale, and the Company no longer incurs their
related compensation expense.



Other Expenses



WFCs other operating expenses decreased by approximately $0.6 million
from the year ended December 31, 2002 to the year ended December 31, 2003. This decrease was primarily due to a decline in depreciation expense in 2003, as a result of the transfer of certain fixed assets from WFC to the Companys other
business segments.



HOLDING COMPANY AND MISCELLANEOUS OPERATIONS



Our Holding Company and Miscellaneous Operations consist
primarily of other operating revenues and expenses not directly attributable to our Banking, Mortgage Investment or Loan Servicing Operations, and also include eliminations of intercompany accounts and transactions. Primary sources of liquidity
include funds available from the Companys wholly-owned non-bank subsidiaries, proceeds from the July 2002 issuance of junior subordinated debt, and payments received from FBBH pursuant to a tax allocation agreement between the Company and the
Bank. However, the OTS has limited the amount of these payments to the lesser of (1) the Banks stand-alone tax liability and (2) the total tax payments made by the Company. In January 2003 the Bank remitted $0.4 million to the Company for a
portion of its 2001 liability, and in October 2003 the Bank remitted $0.8 million for its 2002 liability under the foregoing formula.



DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS  LOAN SERVICING



The Company conducted its Loan Servicing Operations through WCC, our servicing subsidiary which was formed pursuant to our June 10, 1999 reorganization.
As discussed earlier, in April 2004 the Company completed the sale of WCC to Merrill Lynch. Consequently, WCCs results of operations have been removed from the Companys results from continuing operations on the Consolidated Statements of
Operations, and have been presented separately in a single caption as Income from discontinued operations for all periods presented.

Some of WCCs activities were conducted with a co-investor, which has participation interests in the
returns generated by the assets that serve as collateral for the related borrowings. The share of such activities held by this co-investor is reflected as Investor participation interest in WCCs statements of operations.

WCCs total
servicing income for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $35.3 million, compared with $26.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. The increase in 2003 was due primarily to the growth in WCCs servicing volume, as shown in the table
below. Through new contractual agreements and servicing rights acquisitions, WCC increased its portfolio of serviced loans by approximately $2.4 billion in 2003, despite significant loan principal repayments precipitated by the continuing
low-interest rate environment. As a result of this growth, WCCs total servicing revenues and ancillary fees (including late charges) increased by approximately 30% from 2002 to 2003.



The increase in WCCs servicing income in 2003 also reflects an
adjustment of $1.3 million, which was recorded in September 2003. This adjustment represents the reimbursement of deposits of interest made by WCC for prepaid serviced loans in excess of the amount actually owed by WCC. WCC had previously deposited
these funds into custodial accounts in compliance with the related servicing agreements. However, the terms of the



44

##### Table of Contents

servicing agreements were subsequently clarified and retroactively applied, resulting in WCCs recovery of these excess funds. The adjustment is
reflected as a reduction to prepayment interest shortfall expense in the above table for the year ended December 31, 2003.



Net servicing income was negatively impacted by the prevailing low interest-rate environment, which triggered extremely rapid prepayments of loans
comprising WCCs serviced asset base. These accelerated prepayments resulted in significant amortization expense on purchased mortgage servicing rights (PMSRs) over the past three years (though the increases from 2002 to 2003 shown above are
attributable also to the larger portfolio volume). In addition, as a result of the continuing low interest rates, float income earned on deposit balances declined from 2002 to 2003.



The following table sets forth the composition of loans serviced by WCC by type of loan at the dates indicated.

for the year ended December 31, 2003, compared with $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. The decrease in 2003 was due to a drop in loan volume as a result of WCCs sales of $7.3 million unpaid principal balance of loans in 2002.
WCC used the proceeds from the sale to pay down certain debt facilities, resulting in a corresponding decrease in interest expense on the related borrowings. However, WCCs overall interest expense held constant at $0.6 million for 2002 and
2003, as the Company used new borrowings and its line of credit facility in 2003 to fund new servicing rights acquisitions and advances on new servicing arrangements.



Net Realized Gains



WCCs gains on sales totaled $75 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2003, compared with $1.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. WCC
sold $7.3 million unpaid principal balance of loans in the second quarter of 2002, resulting in the $1.9 million gain. However, one half of this gain was shared with a co-investor and is included in other income (loss) as discussed below.

##### Table of Contents

The increase in WCCs total other income for 2003 was a result of the $0.9 million of Investor
participation interest expense recorded for the year ended December 31, 2002. This charge primarily reflects the co-investors share of WCCs gain on its June 2002 sale of loans. WCCs other, net consists primarily of
miscellaneous gains from recoveries of servicer advances in excess of the advances carrying values.



Compensation and Employee Benefits Expense



WCCs compensation and employee benefits totaled $22.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2003, compared with $18.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. The increase in 2003 was due primarily to an
increase in WCCs employee head count as a result of the growth of its loan servicing operations. Additionally, in the second quarter of 2003 some existing employees were transferred to WCCs payroll as part of the Companys
reallocation of certain operating expenses among its business segments. Those employees remained with WCC subsequent to its sale, and the Company no longer incurs their related compensation expense.



Other Expenses



WCCs other expenses totaled $7.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2003, a decrease of $0.3 million from 2002.
The decrease was due primarily to a $0.2 million decline in legal expenses. In March 2002 we recorded an additional accrual for legal fees in connection with the settlement of litigation which arose from certain events prior to our 1999
restructuring.



QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK



Managing risk is an essential part of successfully
operating a financial services company. The most prominent risk exposures are credit quality, interest rate sensitivity, and liquidity. Credit quality risk is the risk of not collecting interest and/or the principal balance of a loan or investment
when it is due. Interest rate risk is the potential reduction of net interest income as the result of changes in interest rates. Rate movements can affect the repricing of assets and liabilities differently, as well as their market value. Liquidity
risk is the possible inability to fund obligations to depositors, investors and borrowers.



Asset and Liability Management



It is our objective to attempt to control risks associated with interest rate movements. In general, managements strategy is to limit our exposure to earnings volatility and variations in the value of assets and liabilities as
interest rates change over time. Our asset and liability management strategy is formulated and monitored by the Asset and Liability Committee (ALCO) which reviews, among other things, the sensitivity of our assets and liabilities to
interest rate changes, the book and market values of assets and liabilities, unrealized gains and losses (including those attributable to hedging transactions), purchase activity, and maturities of investments and borrowings. ALCO establishes rate
sensitivity tolerances (within regulatory guidelines) which are approved by the Board of Directors, and coordinates with the Board with respect to overall asset and liability composition.



ALCO is authorized to utilize off-balance sheet financial techniques to assist in the management of interest rate risk.
These techniques include interest rate swap agreements, pursuant to which the parties exchange the difference between fixed-rate and floating-rate interest payments on a specified principal amount (referred to as the notional amount) for
a specified period without the exchange of the underlying principal amount. In December 2002 the Bank entered into a $35 million notional principal amount interest rate swap agreement. In accordance with the agreement, the Bank paid interest
quarterly at a fixed rate of 2.22% and received quarterly interest payments at the three-month LIBOR rate. The swap agreement matured in December 2004.



We continually monitor the interest rate sensitivity of our portfolios of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities in conjunction with the
current interest rate environment. When a new pool of loans, securities or mortgage servicing rights is acquired, we will assess the incremental change in our sensitivity to interest rates, and determine accordingly whether or not to hedge.

In addition, as required by OTS regulations, ALCO also regularly reviews interest rate risk by
forecasting the impact of alternative interest rate environments on the interest rate sensitivity of Net Portfolio Value (NPV), which is defined as the net present value of an institutions existing assets, liabilities and
off-balance sheet instruments. ALCO further evaluates such impacts against the maximum tolerable change in interest income that is authorized by the Board of Directors.



The following table quantifies the potential changes in the Companys net portfolio value at December 31, 2004, should
interest rates increase or decrease by 100 to 300 basis points, assuming the yield curves of the rate shocks will be parallel to each other.

In determining net
portfolio value, Management relies upon various assumptions, including, but not limited to, prepayment speeds on the Companys assets and the discount rates to be used. We review our assumptions regularly and adjust them when it is deemed
appropriate based on current and future expected market conditions.



Management believes that the assumptions (including prepayment assumptions) it uses to evaluate the vulnerability of our operations to changes in interest rates approximate actual experience and considers them reasonable. However, the
interest rate sensitivity of our assets and liabilities and the estimated effects of changes in interest rates on NPV could vary substantially if different assumptions were used or actual experience differs from the historical experience on which
they are based.

Another tool used to identify and manage our interest rate risk profile is the static gap analysis.
Interest sensitivity gap analysis measures the difference between the assets and liabilities repricing or maturing within specific time periods. The following table summarizes the anticipated maturities or repricing of the Banks assets and
liabilities based on their contractual terms as of December 31, 2004.

ITEM 9A.Controls and Procedures



Evaluation of Controls and Procedures



We
maintain a set of disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act) is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms. As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management,
including our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our
CEO and CFO concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in the
Companys Exchange Act filings.



MANAGEMENTS REPORT ON INTERNAL
CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING



Management of the
Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, and for performing an assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004. 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 generally accepted accounting
principles.



The Companys system of 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 generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in
accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could have
a material effect on the financial statements.



Under the
supervision and with the participation of our management, including the individual serving as our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial
reporting based on the framework in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.



Based on the above evaluation, our management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2004, we did not have any material
weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and our internal control over financial reporting was effective. Our managements assessment of the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2004 has been audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which appears herein.



Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting



In our Form 10-Q for the third fiscal quarter of 2004, we reported that we had identified certain concerns relating to
incomplete or missing information with respect to certain of WFCs loans. As a result of remediation efforts that occurred during the fourth quarter of 2004, we believe that we have appropriately addressed the issues identified in the third
fiscal quarter of 2004 and have concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2004. Other than the resolution of these issues, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting
during our fourth fiscal quarter, or in other factors that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM



To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Beverly Hills Bancorp Inc. and Subsidiaries

Calabasas, California



We have audited managements assessment, included in the accompanying Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial
Reporting, that Beverly Hills Bancorp Inc. and Subsidiaries (the Company) maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated
Frameworkissued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The Companys management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the
effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on managements assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting based on our
audit.



We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards
of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all
material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating managements assessment, testing, and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and
performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinions.



A companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the companys principal executive
and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the companys board of directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and
the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the
maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.



Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial
reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness
of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.



In our opinion, managements assessment that the Company
maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on the criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Also, in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, based on the criteria established in
Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

Employment Arrangements



The Company and the
Bank entered into an Employment, Confidentiality and Contingent Severance Agreement with Joseph W. Kiley III, effective as of January 1, 2003 (the Kiley Agreement). The Kiley Agreement provides that Mr. Kiley serve as President and Chief
Executive Officer of the Bank commencing January 1, 2003. Pursuant to the Kiley Agreement, Mr. Kileys employment is for a term of twelve (12) months, automatically renewing for successive periods of twelve months each, unless, at least 90 days
before the expiration of such twelve-month period, either the members of the board of directors of the Bank (the Board of Directors or the Board) gives written notice of non-renewal to Mr. Kiley, or Mr. Kiley gives written
notice of non-renewal to the Bank. Under the Kiley Agreement, Mr. Kiley receives an annual base salary of $275,000, and is entitled to participate in the Banks employee benefit plans, medical, dental, vision, disability or insurance programs,
if any, to the extent offered to other officers of similar position under the Banks personnel policies. The Company and Mr. Kiley have entered into (1) an Amended and Restated Incentive Stock Option Agreement dated March 12, 2001 for 150,000

subject to certain limitations. Under the Kiley Agreement, in the event of a change in control (as defined in the Kiley Agreement) of the Bank or the Company, Mr. Kiley is entitled to an amount equal to two times his then annual base

##### Table of Contents

The Companys former Chief Executive Officer, Stephen P. Glennon, received an annual salary of
$300,000 for the period from March 1, 2003 through February 29, 2004 pursuant to a letter agreement, and he was reimbursed for certain living expenses for those periods. In addition, Mr. Glennon was granted 300,000 stock options in March 2002 at a
price equal to the fair market value of the Companys Common Stock on the date of grant. The options vested at the rate of 12,500 per month and had vested in full as of February 29, 2004, when Mr. Glennons letter agreement expired. In
February 2004, the Companys Board of Directors extended Mr. Glennons salary under his new agreement through the closing of final issues related to the sale of WCC in the second quarter of 2004. Mr. Glennon resigned on May 27, 2004.



In November 2003, the Bank entered into a change-in-control
agreement with Craig W. Kolasinski, the Banks Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer. This agreement provides that, in the event of a change in control (as defined in the agreement) of the Company or the Bank, Mr. Kolasinski would
be entitled to receive a severance payment if within one year after a change in control, his employment is involuntarily terminated by the Bank for any reason other than cause or death or disability, or he voluntarily terminates his employment after
certain adverse changes in the terms of his employment (Good Reason). The amount of the severance payment for Mr. Kolasinski would be his annual base salary. A copy of this agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.7.



Effective January 1, 2004, the Bank entered into a Stay Bonus
letter agreement with Craig W. Kolasinski. Pursuant to this agreement, if Mr. Kolasinski is in Continuous Service (as defined in the agreement) from the date of the agreement through and including January 1, 2007, the Bank shall pay him
a stay bonus in cash in the amount of $300,000 (the First Stay Bonus) on such date. If Mr. Kolasinski is in Continuous Service from the date of this letter agreement through and including January 1, 2008, the Bank shall pay him an
additional stay bonus in cash in the amount of $150,000 (the Second Stay Bonus) on such date. If there is a Change in Control (as defined in the agreement), and he is in Continuous Service through the end of the nine-month
period following the occurrence of such Change in Control, (a) if the end of such nine month period falls before January 1, 2007, the Bank shall accelerate payment of the First Stay Bonus and the Second Stay Bonus to the end of such nine month
period, and (b) if the end of such nine month period falls on or after January 1, 2007 but before January 1, 2008, the Bank shall accelerate payment of the Second Stay Bonus to the end of such nine month period. If, before January 1, 2008, (i) the
Bank involuntarily terminates Mr. Kolasinskis employment for any reason other than Cause (as defined in the agreement), (ii) Mr. Kolasinski dies or suffers Total Disability (as defined in the agreement), or (iii)
following a Change in Control of the Bank, Mr. Kolasinski terminates his employment with the Bank for Good Reason (as defined in the agreement), he shall become entitled to receive a stay bonus, conditioned upon his (or his personal
representatives or beneficiarys, if applicable) execution and delivery of the Release Agreement (as defined in the agreement), in the amount of (a) if his death, Total Disability or termination of employment occurs before
January 1, 2007, the greater of $225,000 or the Prorated Amount (as defined in the agreement), or (b) if his death, Total Disability or termination of employment occurs on or after January 1, 2007, the Prorated Amount less $300,000. The
Prorated Amount means $450,000 multiplied by a fraction, (I) the numerator of which is the number of calendar months (or portion thereof) of Continuous Service that he has completed after the date of this letter agreement until his
death, Total Disability or termination of employment, and (II) the denominator of which is 48. Any stay bonus to which Mr. Kolasinski is entitled under this paragraph shall be paid to him, in cash and in full, not later than the later of (i) eight
calendar days after execution and delivery by Mr. Kolasinski (or his beneficiary or personal representative, if applicable) of the Release Agreement, or (ii) the date on which such Release Agreement becomes effective. A copy of this letter agreement
is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.8.

performance by having a portion of the executives compensation dependent upon business results and by providing equity interests in the Company. The principal elements of the Companys executive compensation program are base salary
and stock options. In addition, the Company anticipates that it will recognize individual contributions as well as overall business results, using a discretionary bonus program.



Base Salary



Base salaries for the Companys executives are intended to reflect the scope of each executives responsibilities, the success of the Company,
and contributions of each executive to that success. Executive salaries are adjusted gradually over time and only as necessary to meet this objective. Increases in base salary may be moderated by other considerations, such as geographic or market
data, industry trends or internal fairness within the Company.



Bonuses



Annual bonuses were paid by the Company for 2004
based in part upon a bonus formula and the discretion of the Committee and the board of directors. The amount of the annual bonuses paid to executives by the Company was determined by the Committee and approved by the Companys board of
directors. Annual bonuses paid to other employees were based on their individual contributions towards meeting the overall objectives of the Company.



Incentive Stock Option Plans



The Company adopted a stock option plan, the 1999 Equity Participation Plan, on December 2, 1999. The 1999 Equity Participation Plan permits the Company
to grant incentive stock options (ISOs), non-statutory stock options (NSOs), restricted stock and stock appreciation rights (collectively Awards) to employees, directors and consultants of the Company and
subsidiaries of the Company. In June 2000 the Plan was amended to increase the number of shares reserved for issuance by 1,200,000 shares of common stock to an aggregate of 4,000,000 shares, and to allow any participant in the Plan to receive grants
of options or other awards with respect to up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock per year. In January 2001 the Plan was further amended to revise the definition of change in control in those provisions of the Plan that permit
accelerated vesting of the options in the event of a change in control, and in April 2001, the Plan was amended to provide that all options would vest upon certain changes in control of the Company or the Bank. In March 2002 the Board passed a
resolution providing that options granted after January 1, 2002 would not automatically include a provision for immediate vesting upon a change in control, unless otherwise determined by the Committee.



The option exercise price of both ISOs and NSOs may not be less than the fair
market value of the shares covered by the option on the date the option is granted. The Committee also may grant Awards of restricted shares of Common Stock. Each restricted stock Award would specify the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued
to the recipient, the date of issuance, any consideration for such shares and the restrictions imposed on the shares (including the conditions of release or lapse of such restrictions). The Committee also may grant Awards of stock appreciation
rights. A stock appreciation right entitles the holder to receive from the Company, in cash or Common Stock, at the time of exercise, the excess of the fair market value at the date of exercise of a share of Common Stock over a specified price fixed
by the Committee in the Award, multiplied by the number of shares as to which the right is being exercised. The specified price fixed by the Committee will not be less than the fair market value of shares of Common Stock at the date the stock
appreciation right was granted.

On June 25, 2002, the Company adopted a new stock option plan, the 2002 Equity Participation Plan, which
authorizes up to 1,000,000 shares of Company common stock for issuance. Under the 2002 Equity Participation Plan, the Company may grant ISOs and NSOs, and also may grant or sell shares of common stock of the Company to employees, consultants and
directors of the Company, the Bank or any other subsidiary of the Company. The terms of the 2002 Equity Participation Plan with respect to the granting, vesting and exercise of stock options are substantially the same as those under the 1999 Equity
Participation Plan.



CEO Compensation



Mr. Kileys compensation arrangement, while providing for a base
salary, also provides incentives for improving the Companys earnings and shareholder value, as, under additional agreements, Mr. Kiley was granted a total of 200,000 stock options at the current market price. The Committee believes that this
arrangement is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders since the value of Mr. Kileys compensation is directly aligned with the financial performance of the Company.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation



Messrs. Kaufman, Amster, Kanner, Lannan and Daniel A. Markee served on the
Compensation Committee during 2004. No Committee member was, during the year ended December 31, 2004, an officer or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.



Performance Graph



The following Performance Graph covers the five-year period from December 31, 1999 through December 31, 2004. The graph compares the performance of the
Companys Common Stock to the S&P 500, a California small banks index (CSBI) and a Financial Services Index (FSI). As discussed earlier, the Company has operated principally as a bank holding company since April 30,
2004, when the sale of WCC was completed. Consequently, the Company believes that the banking entities included in the CSBI are more representative of its current and expected future industry peer group than are the diversified financial services
companies that comprised the FSI.

Aggregate fees billed to the Company for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 by the Companys principal accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche LLP, the member firms of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu, and their respective

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



In considering the nature of the services provided by Deloitte & Touche,
the Audit Committee determined that such services are compatible with the provision of independent audit services. The Audit Committee discussed these services with Deloitte & Touche and the Companys management to determine that they are
permitted under the rules and regulations concerning auditor independence promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) to implement the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as by the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants.



Pre-Approval Policy



The services performed by Deloitte & Touche in 2004 and 2003 were
pre-approved in accordance with the pre-approval policy and procedures adopted by the Audit Committee. This policy describes the permitted audit, audit-related, tax, and other services (collectively, the Disclosure Categories) that
Deloitte & Touche may perform. The policy requires that prior to the beginning of each fiscal year, a description of the services (the Service List) expected to be performed by Deloitte & Touche in each of the Disclosure
Categories in the following fiscal year be presented to the Audit Committee for approval.



Any requests for audit, audit-related, tax, and other services not contemplated on the Service List must be submitted to the Audit Committee for specific pre-approval and may not commence until such approval has been
granted. Normally, pre-approval is provided at regularly scheduled meetings. However, the Audit Committee has delegated its duties to pre-approve auditing services and permitted non-audit services to its chairman. The chairman must update the Audit
Committee at the next regularly scheduled meeting of any services that were granted specific pre-approval.



In addition, although not required by the rules and regulations of the SEC, the Audit Committee generally requests an estimate of the maximum fees
associated with each proposed service on the Service List and any services that were not originally included on the Service List. Providing an estimate of the maximum fees for a service incorporates appropriate oversight and control of the
Companys relationship with Deloitte & Touche, while permitting the Company to receive immediate assistance from Deloitte & Touche when time is of the essence.

##### Table of Contents

On a quarterly basis, the Audit Committee reviews the status of services and fees incurred year-to-date
against the original Service List and the forecast of remaining services and fees for the fiscal year.



The policy contains a de minimis provision that operates to provide retroactive approval for permissible non-audit services under certain circumstances.
The provision allows for the pre-approval requirement to be waived if all of the following criteria are met:



| | 1. | The service is not an audit, review or other attest service;
| | -- | ------------------------------------------------------------



| | 2. | The aggregate amount of all such services provided under this provision does not exceed the lesser of $50,000.00 or five percent (5%) of total fees paid to Deloitte & Touche in
a given fiscal year;
| | -- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 3. | Such services were not identified at the time of the engagement to be non-audit services;
| | -- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 4. | Such services are promptly brought to the attention of the Audit Committee and approved by the Audit Committee or its designee; and
| | -- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 5. | The service and fee are specifically disclosed in the Proxy Statement as meeting the de minimis requirements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM



To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Beverly Hills Bancorp Inc. and Subsidiaries

Calabasas, California



We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition of Beverly Hills Bancorp Inc. and Subsidiaries (the Company) as of December
31, 2004 and 2003, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 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 audit 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 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, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Beverly Hills Bancorp Inc. and Subsidiaries at December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004, in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.



We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, based on the
criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 16, 2005 expressed an unqualified opinion on managements
assessment of the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting and an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting.

1.    NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES



Nature of
OperationsBeverly Hills Bancorp Inc. (BHBC or the Company, formerly known as Wilshire Financial Services Group Inc.) conducts banking operations through a third-tier subsidiary savings bank, First Bank of Beverly
Hills, F.S.B. (FBBH or the Bank), and mortgage investment operations through its investment subsidiary, WFC Inc. (WFC, formerly known as Wilshire Funding Corporation).



The Company previously conducted loan servicing operations through its
wholly-owned servicing subsidiary, Wilshire Credit Corporation (WCC). Effective April 30, 2004, the Company completed the sale of WCC to Merrill Lynch Mortgage Capital Inc., a division of Merrill Lynch & Co. See Note 2 for a further
discussion of the sale of WCC.



The Bank is engaged in a
banking business focused primarily on niche lending products, including commercial and multi-family real estate lending. WFC manages an asset portfolio consisting of mortgage-backed securities and pools of performing, sub-performing and
non-performing loans. WCC conducted a full-service mortgage loan servicing business, specializing in the servicing of labor-intensive mortgage pools.



Administrative headquarters of the Company, the Bank and WFC are located in Calabasas, California. The Bank, a federally chartered savings institution
regulated by the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS), conducts its operations through a branch in Beverly Hills, California.



Discontinued OperationsThe Company accounts for WCC as a discontinued operation in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of WCC have each been combined and presented as separate captions on the Consolidated
Statements of Financial Condition, and WCCs results of operations have been removed from the Companys results from continuing operations on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and presented separately in a single caption as
Income from discontinued operations.



Principles
of ConsolidationThe Company was incorporated in 1996 to be the holding company for Wilshire Acquisitions Corporation (WAC), which is the holding company for the Bank. The Company formed certain non-bank subsidiaries, including
WFC, and completed an initial public offering of common stock and a public debt offering in the fourth quarter of 1996. Intercompany accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.



Effective May 31, 1999, as part of its restructuring under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, the Company acquired a
majority (50.01%) interest in WCC. The 49.99% interest not held by the Company is reflected as Minority interest in discontinued segment in the Companys consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31,
2002. In October 2002, pursuant to a litigation settlement agreement (see Note 3), the Company purchased the remaining 49.99% minority interest in WCC. Consequently, for periods from October 2002 through April 30, 2004, when WCC was a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, the Companys consolidated financial statements reflect all of the accounts and operating results of WCC and no longer contain an adjustment for minority interest.



WFC has conducted certain activities with a lender which has participation
interests in the returns generated by the assets that serve as collateral for the loans. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all of the accounts of these joint ventures. The share of these activities held by this lender is
reflected as Investor Participation in the Companys consolidated statements of financial condition, operations and cash flows.



Fresh-Start ReportingThe Company accounted for its 1999 reorganization in accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants Statement of Position 90-7, Financial Reporting by Entities



F-8

in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code (SOP 90-7), which resulted in the creation of a new entity for financial reporting purposes.
Pursuant to SOP 90-7, the Company adopted fresh-start reporting, whereby the carrying values of its assets and liabilities were adjusted to reflect their estimated fair values as of the May 31, 1999 effective date. The Company amortizes
the fresh-start adjustments on a monthly basis over the expected remaining life of the related assets and liabilities.



Use of Estimates in the Preparation of the Consolidated Financial StatementsThe preparation of the consolidated 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 and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Significant estimates include allowances for loan losses, valuation allowances for real estate owned, purchased mortgage servicing rights and net deferred tax assets, the
determination of fair values of certain financial instruments for which there is not an active market, the evaluation of other than temporary impairment in the market values of investment securities and other assets, the selection of yields utilized
to recognize interest income on certain mortgage-backed securities, and the outcome of pending legal matters. Estimates and assumptions also affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.



Stock-Based
CompensationThe Company has two stock-based employee compensation plans, the 1999 Equity Participation Plan and the 2002 Equity Participation Plan, pursuant to which stock options have been granted to its directors and certain employees.
The Company accounts for these plans under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation
cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Had compensation expense for the Companys Equity Participation Plans
been determined based on the fair value at the grant date consistent with the methods of SFAS No. 123, the Companys net income and earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 would have been reduced to the pro-forma
amounts indicated below.

The Company did not
grant stock options in 2004. There were no options granted during the years ended December 31, 2003 or 2002 with exercise prices below the market value of the stock at the grant date. The weighted average fair values of options granted during the
years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 were $0.80

and $1.06, respectively. Fair values were estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions used: no
dividend yield, expected volatility of 16% (2003) and 41% (2002), risk-free interest rate of 2.8% (2003) and 2.9% (2002), and expected lives of five years.



Cash and Cash EquivalentsFor purposes of reporting financial condition and cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash and due from
banks, federal funds sold, and securities with original maturities less than 90 days.



Mortgage-Backed and Other SecuritiesThe Companys securities portfolios consist of mortgage-backed and other debt securities that are classified as held to maturity and available for sale. Securities
are classified as held to maturity when management has the ability and the positive intent to hold the securities to maturity. Securities classified as held to maturity are carried at their cost basis, adjusted for the amortization of premiums and
accretion of discounts using a method that approximates the interest method. Holding losses on securities classified as held to maturity that are determined by management to be other than temporary are recorded as market valuation losses and
impairments in the consolidated statements of operations. Securities not classified as held to maturity are classified as available for sale. Securities classified as available for sale are reported at their fair market values with unrealized
holding gains and losses on securities reported, net of tax, when applicable, as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders equity. Holding losses on securities classified as available for sale that
are determined by management to be other than temporary in nature are reclassified from the unrealized holding losses included in accumulated other comprehensive income to current operations. Realized gains and losses from the sales of available for
sale securities are reported separately in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and are calculated using the specific identification method.



Loans and Discounted Loans, and Allowance for Loan LossesLoans at the Bank are presented in the consolidated statements of financial
condition net of unamortized deferred origination fees and costs and net of allowance for loan losses. Deferred fees and costs are recognized in interest income over the terms of the loans using a method that approximates the interest method.
Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis.



The Company
evaluates commercial and multi-family real estate loans (whether purchased or originated and whether classified as loans or discounted loans) for impairment. Commercial and multi-family real estate loans are considered to be impaired, for financial
reporting purposes, when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all principal or interest when due. Specific valuation allowances are established, either at acquisition or through provisions for losses, for impaired loans based on
the fair value of the underlying real estate collateral or the present value of anticipated cash flows.



The Company evaluates single-family real estate, consumer and other smaller balance, homogeneous loans for impairment on a collective basis. Management
evaluates these loans for impairment by comparing managements estimate of net realizable value to the net carrying value of the portfolios.



All specific and general valuation allowances established for pools of loans and discounted loans are recorded in the allowance for loan losses. The
allowance for each pool is decreased by the amount of loans charged off and is increased by the provision for estimated losses on loans and recoveries of previously charged-off loans. The allowance for each pool is maintained at a level believed
adequate by management to absorb probable losses. Managements determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the following: the Companys historical and recent loss
experience in its loan portfolios; the volume, severity and trend of non-performing assets; the extent to which refinances or loan modifications are made to maintain loans in a current status; known deterioration in credit concentrations or certain
classes of loans; loan to value ratios of real estate secured loans; risks associated with specific types of

collateral; the quality and effectiveness of the lending policy, loan purchase policy, internal asset review policy, charge-off, collection and recovery
policies; current conditions in the general and local economies which might affect the collectibility of the loan; anticipated changes in the composition or volume of the portfolio; and reasonableness standards in accordance with regulatory agency
policies.



It is the Companys policy to place loans on
non-accrual status when they are past due more than 90 days, or sooner when, in the judgment of management, the probability of collection of interest is deemed to be insufficient to on non-accrual status. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status,
previously accrued but unpaid interest is reversed by a charge to interest income.



Prior to the Companys June 1999 reorganization, its principal non-Bank business involved acquiring performing, sub-performing and non-performing loan portfolios, for prices generally at or below face value
(i.e., unpaid principal balances plus accrued interest). Nonperforming loans (discounted loans) are generally acquired at deep discounts to face value and are recorded as Discounted loans, net in the Consolidated Statements of Financial
Condition.



Discounted loans are carried net of unaccreted
discount and allowance for loan losses established for those loans. Unaccreted discounts represent the portion of the difference between the purchase price and the principal face amount on specific loans that is available for accretion to interest
income. The allowance for loan losses includes valuation allowances for estimated losses against the cost of the loans that are established at acquisition and for subsequent valuation adjustments that are provided for through current period earnings
and are based on discounted future cash flows or the fair value of the underlying real estate collateral for collateral dependent loans. If total cash received on a pool of loans exceeds original estimates, excess specific valuation allowances are
recorded as additional discount accretion on the cost-recovery method. The allocated specific valuation allowances are included in the allowance for loan losses.



Purchased Mortgage Servicing RightsPurchased mortgage servicing rights (PMSRs) are reported at the lower of
amortized cost or fair value. At the time a servicing portfolio is acquired, the Company capitalizes the purchase price of the PMSRs. Subsequently, the Company amortizes such costs on a monthly basis in proportion to and over the period of the
estimated future net servicing revenues. On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates PMSRs for impairment. PMSRs are stratified based on the predominant risk characteristics of the underlying financial assets. The fair value of the PMSRs is then
determined by estimating the present value of expected future cash flows, using a discount rate that is considered commensurate with the risks involved. The amounts and timing of the cash flows are estimated after considering various economic
factors including prepayment speeds, delinquency, default assumptions and related servicing costs. The amount, if any, by which the amortized cost exceeds the fair value is recorded as an impairment and recognized through a valuation allowance. The
Company sold its PMSRs in April 2004.



GoodwillThe
Company accounts for goodwill in accordance with SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Accordingly, the Company tests goodwill for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that
the carrying amount may not be recoverable.



Other
Intangible Assets, netOther intangible assets consist of core deposit intangibles at FBBH. The Company evaluates intangible assets for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount may not be recoverable.



Real Estate
OwnedReal estate acquired in settlement of loans is held for sale and is originally recorded at the lower of fair value less estimated costs to sell, the carrying value of the underlying loan, or purchase price,

respectively. Any excess of net loan cost basis over the fair value less estimated selling costs of real estate acquired through foreclosure is charged to
the allowance for loan losses. Any subsequent operating expenses or income, reductions in estimated fair values, as well as gains or losses on disposition of such properties, are recorded in current operations.



Leasehold Improvements and EquipmentOffice leasehold
improvements and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization, computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which currently range from one to seven years. Leasehold improvements
are amortized over the lives of the respective leases or the service lives of the improvements, whichever is shorter.



Derivatives and Hedging TransactionsAs part of the Banks interest rate management process, the Bank may enter into interest rate swaps
and other financial instruments in order to mitigate the impact of rising interest rates on the cost of its short-term borrowings and market value of its portfolio securities. The Bank does not use derivatives to speculate on interest rates.



The Company adopted SFAS No. 133, Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended, on January 1, 2001. Under SFAS No. 133, all derivatives are recorded at fair value and presented as either assets or liabilities on the Companys balance sheets. At December 31,
2003, the Companys outstanding interest rate swap qualified as a cash flow hedge and was deemed to be a fully effective hedge under SFAS No. 133. Changes in fair values of the swap are not reflected in current earnings, but reflected in
accumulated other comprehensive income. The fair value of the interest rate swap is determined by values obtained from outside independent sources. The interest rate swap matured in December 2004.



Income TaxesThe provision for income taxes is based on income
recognized for financial statement purposes. The Company files a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return with its eligible subsidiaries. For the year ended December 31, 2004, the Companys consolidated tax return will include WCCs
activity only for the four-month period from January 1 through April 30, 2004, prior to WCCs sale to Merrill Lynch.



Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method. Under this method, a deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the
enacted tax rates which will be in effect when the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax basis of existing assets and liabilities are expected to be reported in the Companys income tax returns. The effect on
deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established to reduce the net carrying amount of deferred tax assets if it is determined to be more likely than
not that all or some portion of the potential deferred tax asset will not be realized.



The Company and its subsidiaries have entered into a tax sharing agreement under which the tax liability is to be allocated pro rata among entities that would have paid tax if they had filed separate income tax
returns. In addition, those entities reimburse loss entities pro rata for the reduction in tax liability as a result of their losses. The OTS has presently limited the amount of the Banks tax payments to the lesser of (1) the Banks
stand-alone tax liability and (2) the total tax payments made by the Company.



Earnings per ShareBasic earnings per share (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 the Companys outstanding stock option contracts were exercised and resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the
Company.



New Accounting PronouncementsIn January
2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46) (revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest

(Dollars in thousands, except per-share amounts)



Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51. FIN 46 requires certain variable interest entities (VIEs) to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of
the entity if the equity investors in the entity do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support
from other parties. FIN 46 is effective for all new VIEs created or acquired after January 31, 2003. For VIEs created or acquired prior to February 1, 2003, the provisions of FIN 46 are effective with the first period ending after December 15, 2003.
The Company adopted FIN 46 effective December 31, 2003 and, accordingly, no longer consolidates the VIE which was created in July 2002 for the issuance of trust preferred subordinated debt (see Note 13). The Companys equity investment in the
VIE of $619 is included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated statement of financial condition. The adoption of FIN 46 has not had a material impact on the Companys financial position or results of operations.



In December 2003, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee of the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) issued Statement of Position No. 03-3 (SOP 03-3),Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer. SOP 03-3 addresses the accounting for differences
between the contractual cash flows and the cash flows expected to be collected from purchased loans or debt securities if those differences are attributable, in part, to credit quality. SOP 03-3 requires purchased loans and debt securities to be
recorded initially at fair value based on the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected with no carryover of any valuation allowance previously recognized by the seller. Interest income should be recognized based on the effective
yield from the cash flows expected to be collected. To the extent that the purchased loans experience subsequent deterioration in credit quality, a valuation allowance would be established for any additional cash flows that are not expected to be
received. However, if more cash flows subsequently are expected to be received than originally estimated, the effective yield would be adjusted on a prospective basis. SOP 03-3 will be effective for the Company for loans and debt securities acquired
after December 31, 2004. Although the Company anticipates that the implementation of SOP 03-3 will require significant loan system and operational changes to track credit related losses on loans purchased beginning in 2005, the Company does not
believe that the adoption of SOP 03-3 will have a significant effect on the Companys financial condition or results of operations.



In March 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) reached consensus on the guidance provided in EITF Issue No. 03-1, The Meaning of
Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and its Application to Certain Investments (EITF 03-1) as applicable to debt and equity securities that are within the scope of SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities
and equity securities that are accounted for using the cost method specified in Accounting Policy Board Opinion No. 18, The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock. An investment is impaired if the fair value of the
investment is less than its cost. EITF 03-1 outlines that an impairment would be considered other-than-temporary unless: (a) the investor has the ability and intent to hold an investment for a reasonable period of time sufficient for the recovery of
the fair value up to (or beyond) the cost of the investment, and (b) evidence indicating that the cost of the investment is recoverable within a reasonable period of time outweighs evidence to the contrary. Although not presumptive, a pattern of
selling investments prior to the forecasted recovery of fair value may call into question the investors intent. In addition, the severity and duration of the impairment should also be considered in determining whether the impairment is
other-than-temporary.



In September 2004 the FASB staff issued
a proposed Board-directed FASB Staff Position, FSP EITF Issue 03-1-a, Implementation Guidance for the Application of Paragraph 16 of EITF Issue No. 03-1. The proposed FSP would provide implementation guidance with respect to debt securities that are
impaired solely due to interest rates and/or sector spreads and analyzed for other-than-temporary impairment under paragraph 16 of Issue 03-1. The Board also issued FSP EITF Issue 03-1-b, which delays the effective date for the measurement and
recognition guidance contained in paragraphs 1020 of EITF 03-1. The delay does not suspend the requirement to recognize other-than-temporary impairments as required by existing authoritative literature. Adoption of this

(Dollars in thousands, except per-share amounts)



standard may cause the Company to recognize impairment losses in its consolidated statements of operations which would not have been recognized under the
current guidance or to recognize such losses in earlier periods, especially those due to increases in interest rates. Since fluctuations in the fair value of available-for-sale securities are already recorded in accumulated other comprehensive
income, adoption of this standard is not expected to have a significant impact on stockholders equity.



In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (SFAS No. 123R), which replaces SFAS No.
123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and supercedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. SFAS No. 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock
options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values. The pro forma disclosures previously permitted under SFAS No. 123 no longer will be an alternative to financial statement recognition. SFAS No. 123R is effective as of
the beginning of the first annual or interim period that begins after June 15, 2005, with early adoption encouraged. The Company thus is required to adopt SFAS No. 123R effective July 1, 2005. In adopting SFAS No. 123R, the Company may
apply the modified prospective application method, which requires that compensation expense be recorded for all unvested stock options and restricted stock at the beginning of the first quarter of adoption of SFAS No. 123R. In addition,
the Company may apply modified retrospective application, which would require the recording of compensation expense for all unvested stock options beginning with the first period restated. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS
No. 123R to result in amounts that are materially different from the current pro forma disclosures under SFAS No. 123.



ReclassificationsCertain items in the consolidated financial statements for 2003 and 2002 were reclassified to conform to the 2004
presentation, none of which affect previously reported net income.



2.    SALE OF WILSHIRE CREDIT CORPORATION



On April 30, 2004, BHBC completed the sale of WCC, the Companys wholly-owned mortgage servicing subsidiary, to Merrill Lynch Mortgage Capital Inc. for net proceeds of $48.2 million, and realized a gain on the
sale of $18.0 million before taxes. WCC was formed in 1999 pursuant to the Companys reorganization, and comprised the Companys Loan Servicing Operations business segment. At the time of its sale, WCC serviced over $6 billion principal
balance of loans for more than 500 individual and institutional investors and governmental agencies.



Effective January 1, 2004, the Company began accounting for WCC as a disposal group held for sale in accordance with SFAS No. 144. Accordingly, the assets
and liabilities of WCC have each been combined and presented in single line-items on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. In addition, WCCs results of operations have been removed from the Companys results from continuing
operations on the Consolidated Statements of Operations, and have been presented separately in a single caption as Income from discontinued operations. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, the Company did not record depreciation expense on
WCCs leasehold improvements and equipment from January 1 through April 30, 2004.

|(2) | The Company no longer serviced loans as of April 30, 2004. WCCs servicing portfolio at December 31, 2003 and 2002 also included approximately $0.3 billion unpaid
principal balance of non-performing consumer loans in addition to those presented above.

3.    SETTLEMENT OF LITIGATION



Effective in December 2004, the Bank reached a settlement in the bankruptcy of Commercial Loan Corporation (CLC) in connection with a lawsuit filed by the Bank against CLC and others regarding a $10.5
million loan portfolio which the Bank purchased from CLC in 2003. As a result of the settlement, the CLC bankruptcy trustee released to the Bank in December 2004 $0.4 million of previously escrowed interest payments made on the loans in this
portfolio, and the Bank has assumed the servicing of the loans. Accordingly, these loans have been reclassified as performing assets, and the Bank has recorded previously unrecognized interest income of $0.4 million. The impact of this settlement
has been reflected in the Companys financial results as of and for the year ended December 31, 2004.



On May 13, 2002, the Company entered into an agreement to resolve all issues with all of the plaintiffs in litigation arising from the financial collapse
of Capital Consultants LLC (CCL). All parties have completed their obligations under the settlement agreement, and this litigation was dismissed in February 2005. The execution of the settlement agreement does not affect the
Companys complete denial of all related claims.



In 2002,
the Company recorded a $3.6 million provision for estimated expenses and losses in connection with the settlement, $0.6 million in related charges, and approximately $0.55 million in legal fees and expenses, net of insurance reimbursement,
associated with finalizing and implementing this settlement. The settlement is expected to eliminate most of the Companys future costs arising from the financial collapse of CCL. However, the Company does expect to incur additional expenses in
connection with legal costs for a prior officer arising from the events that gave rise to the litigation. The Company incurred approximately $0.9 million, $2.5 million and $1.7 million, respectively, of such costs for former officers for the years
ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002.



In June 2001, the Bank
sold its Bankcard Division to iPayment Holdings, Inc. for a purchase price of approximately $5.8 million, with possible additional payments totaling $0.4 million. The Bank filed a lawsuit for payment of part of the purchase price, and iPayment, in
September 2002, filed a cross-complaint against the Bank for fraud, breach of contract and negligent misrepresentation. iPayment claimed damages for the difference in the purchase price due to the allegedly decreased value of a portion of the
merchant portfolio; chargebacks resulting from merchant fraud that iPayment is liable to pay, and will not be able to recover, from the merchant totaling between $5 to $6 million; and attorneys fees and punitive damages. Without any admission
of liability, the parties in February 2004 settled the case for $0.4 million to be paid by the Bank to iPayment, in addition to a

mutual release and additional indemnification protection for the Bank. This settlement has been reflected in the Companys consolidated statement of
operations for the year ended December 31, 2003.



4.    MARKET VALUATION LOSSES AND IMPAIRMENTS



The Company evaluates, on an ongoing basis, the carrying value of its securities portfolio. To the extent differences between the book bases of the securities accounted for as available-for-sale and their current
market values are deemed to be temporary in nature, such unrealized gains or losses are reflected directly in stockholders equity as accumulated other comprehensive income. Impairments that are deemed to be other than temporary are charged to
income as market valuation losses and impairments. In evaluating impairments as other than temporary, the Company considers the magnitude and trend in the decline of the market value of securities, the Companys ability to collect all amounts
due according to the contractual terms and the Companys expectations at the time of purchase.



The Company did not record any market valuation losses and impairments in 2004. For the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company recorded market
valuation losses and impairments of $0.4 million related to certain other assets. In 2002, the Company recorded market valuation losses and impairments totaling $3.7 million. Approximately $3.6 million of these write-downs related to three
interest-only government-sponsored enterprise (GSE) mortgage-backed securities (I/Os) which the Bank purchased in 2002 as a hedge against possible increases in interest rates. However, as rates continued to decrease throughout 2002, the
I/Os declined significantly in value. Since this impairment was deemed to be other than temporary, the write-downs were reflected as market valuation losses and impairments in the accompanying statements of operations, and not as a reduction to
stockholders equity. In August 2002 the Bank sold two of the I/Os for an additional loss of approximately $0.1 million. In the fourth quarter of 2002, the remaining I/O recovered in value, and the Bank sold the security for a realized gain of
approximately $0.8 million. The realized gains and losses on sale are included in the net gain on sales of securities in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Declines in the fair
value of held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses. In estimating other-than-temporary impairment losses, management considers, among
other things, (i) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (ii) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (iii) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the
issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.



Management has the ability and intent to hold the securities classified as held to maturity until they mature, at which time the Company expects to receive full value for the securities. Furthermore, as of December
31, 2004, management also had the ability and intent to hold the securities classified as available for sale for a period of time sufficient for a recovery of cost. The unrealized losses are largely due to increases in market interest rates over the
yields available at the time the underlying securities were purchased. The fair value is expected to recover as the bonds approach their maturity date or repricing date or if market yields for such investments decline. Management does not believe
any of the securities are impaired due to reasons of credit quality. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2004, management believes the impairments detailed in the table above are temporary and no impairment loss has been realized in the Companys
consolidated statement of operations.



As of December 31, 2004,
the Company had no securities maturing in less than five years, $5,872 fair value and $5,845 unamortized cost of securities maturing in over five years through ten years, and approximately $325,203 fair value and $326,436 unamortized cost of
securities maturing after ten years. However, the Company expects to receive payments on its securities over periods considerably shorter than their contractual maturities.

The Company received proceeds of $34,724, $9,436 and $89,139, respectively, on sales of
available-for-sale securities during the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002. Gross realized gains and losses from sales of available- for- sale securities were $420 and $2, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2004; $249 and $0,
respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2003; and $2,468 and $210, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2002.



At December 31, 2004 and 2003, securities with amortized cost of $299,576 and $242,454, respectively, and market values of $298,050 and $243,033,
respectively, were pledged to secure repurchase agreements, FHLB advances and public deposits.



In September 2003, the Bank transferred two agency securities from the available-for-sale classification to the held-to-maturity classification. At the date of transfer, the two agency securities had an aggregate par
value and unrealized loss of approximately $10.2 million and $595, respectively. The unrealized loss of $595 was recorded as a discount and is being amortized to other comprehensive income over the life of the securities. The unrealized loss, net of
taxes, is included in other comprehensive income.

When the Company
receives payments on impaired loans that are more than 90 days past due, the payment is applied to principal and interest if the payment brings the loan to less than 90 days delinquent (or, in cases where payments are made in accordance with a
bankruptcy plan, the borrower is current under the terms of that plan). If a payment is received on a loan more than 90 days delinquent, such as a foreclosure, and the payment does not bring the loan current, the payment is returned to the borrower.
Payments received on impaired loans less than 90 days past due are recorded as both principal and interest in accordance with the terms of the loan. No additional funds are committed to be advanced in connection with impaired loans.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  (Continued)

(Dollars in thousands, except per-share amounts)



At December 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company had a total of $8,911 and $11,134, respectively, of loans
on nonaccrual status.



The Bank has a geographic concentration
of mortgage loans in the western United States, primarily in southern California. The five states with the greatest concentration of the Banks loans were California, Nevada, Arizona, Texas and Oregon, which had $565.3 million, $75.2 million,
$42.8 million, $38.7 million, and $26.6 million principal amount of loans, respectively, at December 31, 2004. The five states with the greatest concentration of the Companys discounted loans were Oregon, California, Florida, Texas and
Georgia, which had $2.6 million, $0.7 million, $0.3 million, $0.3 million and $0.3 million principal amount of loans, respectively, at December 31, 2004.



Managements estimates are utilized to determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Estimates are also involved in determining the
ultimate recoverability of purchased loans and, consequently, the pricing of purchased loans. These estimates are inherently uncertain and depend on the outcome of future events. Although management believes the levels of the allowance as of
December 31, 2004 and 2003 are adequate to absorb losses inherent in the loan portfolio, changes in interest rates, various other economic factors and regulatory requirements may result in increasing levels of losses. Those losses will be recognized
if and when these events occur.

The Company sold its
PMSRs in April 2004. Previously, the Company evaluated PMSRs for impairment by stratifying PMSRs based on the predominant risk characteristics of the underlying financial assets. At December 31, 2003, the fair values of the Companys PMSRs
totaled $290. These values were determined using discount rates of 12-15% and prepayment rate assumptions (CPR) ranging from 36% to 63%.



For the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company recorded other than temporary impairment of PMSRs of $394, which reduced both the gross carrying value
of the PMSRs and the PMSRs valuation allowance. The amount of the other than temporary impairment was determined by selecting an appropriate interest rate shock to estimate the amount of the PMSRs fair value that the Company might expect
to recover in the foreseeable future. To the extent that the gross carrying value of the PMSRs exceeded the estimated recoverable amount, that

portion of the gross carrying value was written off as an other than temporary impairment. Although the writedown had no impact on the Companys results
of operations or financial condition, it did reduce the gross carrying value of the PMSRs, which is used as the basis for PMSR amortization.



|10.    GOODWILL | AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
|--------------- | ---------------------



In June 2000, the Bank acquired a branch location and recorded goodwill of $3,393 and a core deposit intangible of $1,294. Through December 31, 2001, the
goodwill was amortized on a straight-line basis over an estimated useful life of 15 years. In January 2002 the Company adopted SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, and, as a result, no longer amortizes goodwill, but tests
it at least annually for impairment. The Company will continue to amortize the core deposit intangible over its estimated useful life of 5 years.



Following is a summary of the Companys intangible assets as of December 31, 2004 and 2003:

For the year ended
December 31, 2004 the Company recorded amortization expense of $259 related to the core deposit intangible. The net core deposit intangible balance of $129 at December 31, 2004 will be amortized in full in 2005.



There were no changes in the carrying value of goodwill during the year ended
December 31, 2004. The Company tested goodwill for impairment as of March 31, 2004 and determined that no impairment charge was required. There were no conditions that indicated impairment as of December 31, 2004.

13.    LONG-TERM DEBT



At
December 31, 2004, the Company had outstanding $20.6 million in floating-rate junior subordinated notes payable to a wholly-owned statutory business trust. The notes bear interest at the three-month LIBOR rate plus 3.65% (6.31% at December 31, 2004)
and mature in 2032. The notes may be prepaid after July 11, 2007 in whole or in part at par. The Company incurred interest expense of approximately $1.0 million, $1.0 million and $0.5 million on these notes for the years ended December 31, 2004,
2003 and 2002, respectively.



The Company issued the notes to
the trust in July 2002. The trust which in turn issued $20 million of trust preferred debt securities which mirror the terms of the notes. Prior to the adoption of FIN 46, this trust was reported as a consolidated subsidiary of the Company, the $20
million of trust preferred securities were included in the Companys consolidated statement of financial condition under the caption Trust preferred securities, and the retained common capital securities of the issuer trusts were
eliminated against the Companys investment in the trust.



Effective December 31, 2003, the Company adopted FIN 46. As a result, the notes are reflected in the Companys consolidated statement of financial condition under the caption Junior subordinated notes payable to trust. In
addition, the Company has included its equity investment in the trust of $619 in other assets in its consolidated statement of financial condition as of December 31, 2004 and 2003.



In January and February 2002 the Company issued a total of $7.69 million in 8% convertible subordinated debentures due
December 15, 2005. The debentures were issued in a private placement to certain of the Companys Directors, and provided the majority of the financing for the Companys December 2001 repurchase of approximately 4.2 million shares of its
common stock. In July 2002, after the Company called for redemption of the debentures, the Directors elected to convert their holdings into common stock. Accordingly, the Company canceled the debentures and issued a total of 3,396,416 shares of BHBC
common stock to the Directors. The Company incurred interest expense of approximately $0.3 million on these debentures for the year ended December 31, 2002.

14.    INCOME TAXES



The Company files consolidated federal and state income tax returns with its eligible subsidiaries. As discussed in Note 2,
the Company completed the sale of its wholly-owned loan servicing subsidiary, WCC, to Merrill Lynch Mortgage Capital Inc. on April 30, 2004. WCC is accounted for as a discontinued operation in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, and
its assets and liabilities and operating results have each been removed from the Companys consolidated statements of financial condition and operations, respectively, and reported separately in a single caption. Accordingly, the discussion in
this note concerns the Companys income tax provision (benefit) and its deferred tax asset as they relate to its continuing operations.



The components of income from continuing operations before federal and state income taxes were as follows:

The difference between the effective tax rate applicable to income from continuing operations and the

The Companys
deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the tax effect of future deductible or taxable amounts. They are attributable to net operating loss carryforwards and also to temporary timing differences between amounts that have been recognized in the
financial statements and amounts that have been recognized in the income tax returns. An effective tax rate of approximately 40.4% is applied to each attribute in determining the amount of the related deferred tax asset or liability.



Deferred income tax assets and liabilities as they relate to the
Companys continuing operations are summarized as follows:

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  (Continued)

(Dollars in thousands, except per-share amounts)



SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, requires that deferred tax assets be reduced
by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. As of December 31, 2004, the Company evaluated the positive and negative evidence regarding the future realization of the
deferred tax assets. Pursuant to this evaluation, the Company concluded that the available objective positive evidence regarding its ability to generate future federal taxable income substantially outweighed the available objective negative evidence
regarding future federal taxable income. The Company also concluded that the objective negative evidence regarding the ability to generate certain future state taxable income outweighed the available objective positive evidence regarding certain
future state taxable income, due primarily to the curtailment of its operations in the state of Oregon subsequent to the sale of WCC. As a result, the Company believes it is more likely than not that a substantial amount of its deferred tax assets
will be realized in future years, and that, as of December 31, 2004, the only valuation allowance required is approximately $6.8 million related to (1) net operating loss carryforwards in Oregon and certain other states and (2) federal net operating
loss carryforwards that may not be utilized prior to expiration.



The Company therefore reduced the amount of the valuation allowance and realized the related tax benefit. In accordance with AICPA Statement of Position 90-7, Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy
Code (SOP 90-7), as portions of the deferred tax asset are realized and the valuation allowance is reduced, the related benefits, to the extent they relate to the Companys post-reorganizational period, are recorded as a
tax benefit in the consolidated statements of operations. As benefits relating to the Companys pre-reorganizational period are realized, they are recorded as a direct increase to stockholders equity. The net deferred tax asset of
$37.4 million is reported as an asset in the consolidated statement of financial condition as of December 31, 2004.



In June 2002 the Company experienced a change in control as set forth by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. In general, a change in control is
defined as a greater than 50% ownership shift as measured over the prior three-year period. The change in control will limit the Companys ability to utilize its net operating loss carryforwards in future periods. The Company has determined
that the limitation on the amount that may be used annually to offset taxable income is approximately $6 million.



As of December 31, 2004, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $104 million and also had state net operating loss
carryforwards. The federal carryforward period runs through 2024. As discussed above, the Companys net operating loss carryforwards that were generated in the pre-reorganizational period are subject to an annual limitation on the amount that
may be used to offset taxable income. The Company believes that it has adequately provided for this limitation with its valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  (Continued)

(Dollars in thousands, except per-share amounts)



Loan CommitmentsAt December 31, 2004, the Bank had outstanding commitments to extend
credit of approximately $11.3 million and unfunded commitments under lines of credit of $0.4 million. Loan commitments expose the Bank to credit risk in excess of amounts reflected in the consolidated financial statements. The Bank receives
collateral to support loans and commitments to extend credit for which collateral is deemed necessary.



Purchase CommitmentsFrom time to time, the Company enters into various commitments and letters of intent relating to purchases of loans,
foreclosed real estate portfolios and other investments. There can be no assurance that any of such transactions will ultimately be consummated. It is the Companys policy generally to record such transactions in the financial statements in the
period in which such transactions are closed. There were no such commitments outstanding at December 31, 2004.



LitigationThe Company expects to incur additional expenses on behalf of a former officer for legal fees and other costs in connection with
the events that gave rise to the litigation discussed in Note 3.



In June 2004, a former officer of the Company, pursuant to a plea bargain, pleaded guilty to two felony counts in connection with certain criminal proceedings against him arising out of the financial collapse of CCL. As part of this plea
bargain, the former officer agreed to pay restitution in the amount of $2 million. The former officer has made a claim against the Company for this amount, asserting that he is entitled to indemnification under Delaware law. The Company disagrees
with this assertion and intends to contest the claim vigorously.



The Company is a defendant in other legal actions arising from transactions conducted in the ordinary course of business. Some of these claims involve individual borrowers demanding material amounts for alleged damages. Management, after
consultation with legal counsel, and based on prior experience with consumer claims, believes the ultimate liability, if any, arising from such actions will not materially affect the Companys consolidated results of operations, financial
position or cash flows.



Derivatives and Hedging
TransactionsDuring 2002, the Bank entered into an interest rate swap agreement which effectively fixed the interest rate paid on $35 million, as of December 31, 2003, of borrowings under reverse repurchase agreements. Under this
agreement, the Bank received a floating rate of interest and paid a fixed rate of interest. The swap expired in December 2004. The fair value of the swap as of December 31, 2003 was an unfavorable $257 thousand. Since the swap qualified for
cash flow hedging for accounting purposes, that amount was shown, net of taxes, in accumulated other comprehensive income as an unrealized loss.



16.    REGULATORY MATTERS



Regulatory AgreementsOn January 11, 2002, the OTS determined that the Bank may reimburse BHBC for the Banks stand-alone tax obligations
for periods that are no longer subject to tax carry-back. For those periods that are subject to tax carry-back, the Bank may reimburse BHBC in the lesser amount of BHBCs actual payments to the taxing authorities or the Banks stand-alone
tax obligations. The Bank reimbursed BHBC for actual payments to the taxing authorities in 2003 and 2002 of $1,210 and $735, respectively.



Capital Requirements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 their

assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Banks capital amounts and
classifications 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
following table) of total and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and Tier I capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, that the Bank
met all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.



As of December 31, 2004 and 2003, the most recent notification from the OTS categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized,
the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the following tables. There are no conditions or events since the notification that management believes have changed the Banks
category. As of December 31, 2004 and 2003, the total core capital and total risk-based capital amounts of the Bank, compared with the OTS minimum requirements, were as follows:

(Dollars in thousands, except per-share amounts)



At December 31, 2004, BHBC and WFC held demand deposit accounts at the Bank in the amount of $37,773
and $352, respectively. Management believes that the terms of these deposits are the same as those of other demand deposits held by non-affiliates.



In January and February 2002 the Company issued a total of $7.69 million in 8% convertible subordinated debentures due December 15, 2005 to five of its
Directors in a private placement. The proceeds from this issuance provided the majority of the financing for the Companys December 2001 repurchase of approximately 4.2 million shares of its common stock. In July 2002, after the Company called
for redemption of the debentures, the Directors elected to convert their holdings into common stock. Accordingly, the Company canceled the debentures and issued a total of 3,396,416 shares of the Companys common stock to the Directors in
proportion to each Directors initial investment. The Company incurred approximately $0.3 million in interest expense on the debentures during the year ended December 31, 2002.

BENEFITS AND AGREEMENTS



Profit Sharing

Employment AgreementsThe Company has negotiated employment agreements with certain
employees. These agreements provide for the payment of base salaries, performance bonuses subject to certain restrictions, and/or the payment of severance benefits upon termination. Effective January 2004, the Company entered into a Stay
Bonus agreement with an executive officer.



Stock
OptionsThe Company adopted a stock option plan, the 1999 Equity Participation Plan, on December 2, 1999. The 1999 Equity Participation Plan permits the Company to grant incentive stock options (ISOs), non-statutory stock
options (NSOs), restricted stock and stock appreciation rights (collectively Awards) to employees, directors and consultants of the Company and subsidiaries of the Company. In June 2000 the Plan was amended to increase the
number of shares reserved for issuance by 1,200,000 shares of common stock to an aggregate of 4,000,000 shares, and to allow any participant in the Plan to receive grants of options or other awards with respect to up to 1,000,000 shares of common
stock per year. In January 2001 the Plan was further amended to revise the definition of change in control in those provisions of the Plan that permit accelerated vesting of the options in the event of a change in control, and in April
2001, the Plan was amended to provide that all options would vest upon certain changes in control of the Company or the Bank. In March 2002 the Board passed a resolution providing that options granted after January 1, 2002 would not automatically
include a provision for immediate vesting upon a change in control, unless otherwise determined by the Committee.



The option exercise price of both ISOs and NSOs may not be less than the fair market value of the shares covered by the option on the date the option is
granted. The Committee also may grant Awards of restricted shares of common stock. Each restricted stock Award would specify the number of shares of common stock to be issued to the recipient, the date of issuance, any consideration for such shares
and the restrictions imposed on the shares (including the conditions of release or lapse of such restrictions). The Committee also may grant Awards of stock appreciation rights. A stock appreciation right entitles the holder to receive from the
Company, in cash or common stock, at the time of exercise, the excess of the fair market value at the date of exercise of a share of common stock over a specified price fixed by the Committee in the Award, multiplied by the number of shares as to
which the right is being exercised. The specified price fixed by the Committee will not be less than the fair market value of shares of common stock at the date the stock appreciation right was granted.



On June 25, 2002, the Company adopted a new stock option plan, the 2002
Equity Participation Plan, which authorizes up to 1,000,000 shares of Company common stock for issuance. Under the 2002 Equity Participation Plan, the Company may grant ISOs and NSOs, and also may grant or sell shares of common stock of the Company
to employees, consultants and directors of the Company, the Bank or any other subsidiary of the Company. The terms of the 2002 Equity Participation Plan with respect to the granting, vesting and exercise of stock options are substantially the same
as those under the 1999 Equity Participation Plan.

The methods and
assumptions used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument for which it is practicable to estimate that value are explained below:



Cash and Cash EquivalentsThe carrying amounts approximate fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.



Investment Securities and Mortgage-Backed SecuritiesThe fair
values of securities are generally obtained from discounted cash flow models, market bids for similar or identical securities, independent security brokers or dealers.



Loans and Discounted LoansLoans are segregated by type, such as fixed- and adjustable-rate interest terms. The
fair values of fixed-rate mortgage loans are based on discounted cash flows utilizing applicable risk-adjusted spreads relative to the current pricing of similar fixed-rate loans as well as anticipated prepayment schedules. The fair values of
adjustable-rate mortgage loans are based on discounted cash flows utilizing discount rates that approximate the pricing of available mortgage-backed securities having similar rate and repricing characteristics, as well as anticipated prepayment
schedules. No value adjustments have been made for

changes in credit within the loan portfolio. It is managements opinion that the allowance for estimated loan losses pertaining to loans results in a
fair value adjustment of the credit risk of such loans. The fair value of discounted loans, which are predominantly non-performing loans, is more difficult to estimate due to uncertainties as to the nature, timing and extent to which the loans will
be either collected according to original terms, restructured, or foreclosed upon. Discounted loans fair values were estimated using the Companys best judgment for these factors in determining the estimated present value of future net
cash flows discounted at a risk-adjusted market rate of return. For other loans, fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics.



Accrued Interest Receivable, Receivables from Other Loan Servicers and Accrued Interest PayableThe carrying
amounts approximate fair values due to the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities.



Federal Home Loan Bank StockThe carrying amounts approximate fair values because the stock may be sold back to the Federal Home Loan Bank at carrying value.



Purchased Mortgage Servicing RightsThe fair value of PMSRs was
determined by estimating the present value of expected future cash flows, using a discount rate that was considered commensurate with the risks involved. The amounts and timing of the cash flows were estimated after considering various economic
factors including prepayment speeds, delinquency, default assumptions and related servicing costs. The Company no longer owned PMSRs as of April 2004.



DepositsThe fair values of deposits are estimated based on the type of deposit products. Demand accounts, which include passbook and
transaction accounts, are presumed to have equal book and fair values, since the interest rates paid on these accounts are based on prevailing market rates. The estimated fair values of time deposits are determined by discounting the cash flows of
settlements of deposits having similar maturities and rates, utilizing a yield curve that approximated the prevailing rates offered to depositors as of the reporting date.



Repurchase Agreements and FHLB AdvancesThe carrying value of repurchase agreements and FHLB advances maturing
within one year is a reasonable approximation of fair value. The fair value of repurchase agreements and FHLB advances with maturities greater than one year is estimated using rates currently offered for borrowings and advances of similar
maturities.



Investment FinancingThe carrying
value of the Companys investment financing was a reasonable approximation of fair value, as the majority of these borrowings matured in less than one year. The Company repaid these borrowings in full in April 2004.



Junior Subordinated Notes Payable to TrustThe carrying value of
the Companys notes payable to the trust is a reasonable approximation of fair value, as this debt bears interest at prevailing market rates, adjusting quarterly.



Derivative Financial InstrumentsThe fair value of the interest-rate swap is estimated at the net present value
of the future payable, based on the current spread, discounted at a current rate. The fair value of the interest-rate option is obtained from market bids for similar options.



The fair value estimates presented herein are based on pertinent information available to management as of each reporting
date. Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the estimated fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these

financial statements since that date, and therefore, current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.



21.    OPERATING SEGMENTS



The Companys reportable operating segments, as defined by the
Companys management, consist of its Banking Operations and Mortgage Investment Operations. As discussed in Note 3, the Company completed the sale of WCC, which comprised the Companys Loan Servicing segment, to Merrill Lynch in April
2004. Accordingly, the operating results of WCC are presented separately, in a single caption titled Income from operations of discontinued segment in the Companys consolidated statements of operations.



The operating segments differ in terms of regulatory environment, funding
sources and asset acquisition strategies, as described below:



| |  | Banking OperationsThrough FBBH, the Company conducts a banking business focused primarily on specialty-niche products, including commercial and multi-family real estate
lending and investments in primarily AAA-rated and GSE mortgage-backed securities. The primary sources of liquidity for the Banks purchases and originations are wholesale certificates of deposit, retail deposits, FHLB advances and repurchase
agreements. The Bank is a federally chartered savings bank and is regulated by the OTS. The Bank has filed an application with the California Department of Financial Institutions (CDFI) for conversion to a state commercial bank charter.
The Company believes that a CDFI charter would be better aligned with the Banks strategic business plan, by providing FBBH with greater flexibility in its operations and increased opportunities for growth.
|- |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Mortgage Investment OperationsThe Companys investment subsidiary, WFC, manages a portfolio of mortgage-backed securities and pools of performing, sub-performing
and non-performing residential and commercial loans. WFC conducts certain of these activities with an institutional investor where such investments align the Companys interests with those of the institutional investor. WFCs funding
sources have consisted primarily of commercial bank financing and co-investors, with debt service repayment terms that generally parallel the cash flows of the underlying collateral.
|- |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  | Holding Company and Miscellaneous OperationsThe Companys Holding Company and Miscellaneous Operations consist of other operating revenues and expenses not
directly attributable to the Companys defined business segments. In addition, this segment includes interest expense on the $20.6 million of junior subordinated notes payable issued in July 2002 and eliminations of intercompany accounts and
transactions.
