SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT UNDER THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995
FOR FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

             Information in this report contains forward-looking statements
within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that
are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause the Company's actual
results to differ materially from those projected in forward-looking statements.
The use of forward-looking statements can be identified by statements that
express or involve discussions as to expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives,
assumptions or future events or performance (often, but not always, through the
use of words or phrases such as "will likely result," "are expected to," "will
continue," "is anticipated," "estimated," "projection," or "outlook"), are not
historical facts and may be forward-looking. Such statements involve estimates,
assumptions, and uncertainties which include, but are not limited to, overall
business conditions, particularly in the business markets in which Republic
Security Financial Corporation, its wholly-owned subsidiary, Republic Security
Bank and, for the period beginning July 30, 1999, the Bank's wholly-owned
subsidiary, RS Maritime Corporation d/b/a First New England Financial, operate;
general economic conditions, changes in interest rates, deposit flows, loan
demand, real estate values, and competition; changes in accounting principles,
policies, or guidelines; changes in legislation or regulation; and other
economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory, and technological factors that
affect the Company's operations, pricing, products, and services. Other factors,
such as the general state of the economy, could also cause actual results to
vary materially from the future results covered in such forward-looking
statements. Accordingly, any such statements are qualified in their entirety by
reference to, and are accompanied by, the above mentioned important factors that
could cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from those
contained in the forward- looking statements of the Company made by or on behalf
of the Company.

             All such factors are difficult to predict, contain uncertainties
which may materially affect actual results and are beyond the control of the
Company.

              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                               SEPTEMBER 30, 1999

1.           BASIS OF PRESENTATION

                      The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
             financial statements include the accounts of Republic Security
             Financial Corporation ("Republic") and its wholly-owned subsidiary,
             Republic Security Bank (the "Bank"), (collectively, the "Company").
             In the opinion of the Company's management, the financial
             statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
             accruals) considered necessary to present fairly the financial
             position of the Company as of September 30, 1999 and December 31,
             1998, and the results of its operations and comprehensive income
             for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998 and
             its cash flows for the nine months then ended.

                      The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
             financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
             generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
             information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10
             of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
             information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
             principles for complete financial statements. Operating results for
             the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999 are not
             necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
             year ending December 31, 1999. For further information, refer to
             the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto
             included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year
             ended December 31, 1998.

                      The statement of financial condition at December 31, 1998
             has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date
             but does not include all of the information required by generally
             accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

                      In addition to the accounts and results of operations of
             the Company, the condensed consolidated financial statements also
             include the accounts and results of operations of Northside Bank of
             Tampa ("Northside") since January 1, 1999. The merger between the
             Company and Northside, which was accounted for as a pooling of
             interests, did not meet the conditions of a significant subsidiary
             as set forth in Article 11 of Regulation S-X; therefore, prior
             periods have not been restated to include the accounts and results
             of operations of Northside. The condensed consolidated financial
             statements also include the accounts and results of operations of
             First New England Financial ("FNEF"), since the Bank acquired the
             net assets of this loan production operation on July 30, 1999.

2.           ACQUISITIONS

                      On February 26, 1999, Republic acquired all of the
             outstanding shares of Northside in exchange for 2,467,956 shares of
             Republic's common stock. Northside shareholders received 3.64
             shares of Republic's common stock for each share of Northside
             commons stock. The transaction was accounted for as a pooling of
             interest and resulted in Republic acquiring assets of approximately
             $74.6 million, including total loans of $39.6 million, total
             deposits of $63.6 million and equity of $9.9 million.

                      On June 11, 1999, the Bank acquired nine bank branches
             operating in Kash N' Karry supermarkets from First National Bank of
             Central Florida ("FNBCF") for approximately $1.0 million, which was
             paid in cash. In connection with the acquisition, the Bank assumed
             approximately $27.6 million in deposits.

                      On July 30, 1999, the Bank acquired the assets of FNEF, a
             marine loan production operation, from Deere Credit, Inc. for
             approximately $6.8 million. Under the terms of the transaction, the
             Bank acquired the brand name First New England Financial and the
             1-800-BOAT-LOAN phone number, as well as proprietary loan
             processing software and professional staff in three regional
             offices located in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida; Shelton, Connecticut
             and Newport, California. In addition, FNEF has four satellite
             offices located in Alameda, California; Manasquan, New Jersey;
             Annapolis, Maryland and Portsmouth, Rhode Island. The Company
             operates FNEF as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Bank.

3.           NON-PERFORMING ASSETS AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

                      At September 30, 1999, the Bank had $17.3 million in
             non-performing assets (loans 90 days or more past due, other real
             estate owned and repossessed assets) compared to $16.6 million at
             December 31, 1998. The provision for loan losses was $0.3 million
             and $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 1999 and
             1998, respectively.

                      Although management uses its best judgment in underwriting
             each loan, industry experience indicates that a portion of the
             Bank's loans will become delinquent. Regardless of the underwriting
             criteria utilized by financial institutions, losses may be
             experienced as a result of many factors beyond their control
             including, among other things, changes in market conditions
             affecting the value of security and unrelated problems affecting
             the credit of the borrower. Due to the concentration of loans in
             South Florida, adverse economic conditions in this area could
             result in a decrease in the value of a significant portion of the
             Bank's collateral.

                      In the normal course of business, the Bank has recognized
             and will continue to recognize losses resulting from the inability
             of certain borrowers to repay loans and the insufficient realizable
             value of collateral securing such loans. Accordingly, management
             has established an allowance for loan losses which totaled $24.2
             million at September 30, 1999 compared to $26.0 at December 31,
             1998.

                      The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level
             believed adequate by management to absorb estimated probable loan
             losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Management's periodic
             evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based on the Bank's
             past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the
             portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's
             ability to repay (including the timing of future payments), the
             estimated value of any underlying collateral, composition of the
             loan portfolio, current economic conditions and other relevant
             factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires
             material estimates including the amounts and timing of future cash
             flows expected to be received on impaired loans that may be
             susceptible to significant change.

4.           COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

                      Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a
             customer as long as there is no violation of any condition
             established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed
             expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require the
             payment of a fee. The total commitment amounts do not necessarily
             represent future cash requirements as some commitments expire
             without being drawn upon. The Bank evaluates each customer's credit
             worthiness on a case by case basis. The amount of collateral
             obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank, upon an extension of
             credit is based on management's credit evaluation of the counter
             party.

                      At September 30, 1999, the Bank had adjustable rate
             commitments to extend credit of approximately $290.2 million,
             excluding the undisbursed portion of loans-in-process. These
             commitments are primarily for commercial lines of credit secured by
             commercial real estate or other business assets and for one-to-four
             family residential properties.

                      In addition to the above commitments, there are certain
             contingencies involving various matters of litigation pending
             against the Company that management has reviewed with legal
             counsel. In the opinion of management, amounts accrued for awards
             or assessments in connection with these matters are adequate and
             the ultimate resolution of these matters is not expected to have a
             material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position,
             results of operations or cash flows.

                      At September 30, 1999, 1,607,458 stock options at a
             weighted average exercise price of $9.30 were outstanding that
             could potentially dilute earnings per share in future periods, but
             which were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per
             share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999. The
             effect of these shares is antidilutive to diluted earnings per
             share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999.

6.           SUBSEQUENT EVENT

                      On November 3, 1999, the Company's Board of Directors
             approved a common stock repurchase program of up to 2.0 million
             shares or approximately 4% of the Company's outstanding shares. The
             buyback program became effective when approved by the Board and the
             Company plans to repurchase the shares in its discretion in the
             open market and/or through privately negotiated transactions.

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

                  COMPARISON OF THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED
                          SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 AND 1998

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

             The Company had net income of $8.0 million or $0.16 diluted
earnings per common share for the three months ended September 30, 1999,
compared to $1.3 million or $0.03 diluted earnings per common share for the
three months ended September 30, 1998. Net income increased $6.7 million for the
three months ended September 30, 1999 compared to the three months ended
September 30, 1998. Net interest income increased $3.7 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1999 compared to the three months ended September 30,
1998. Non-interest income increased $3.5 million while operating expenses
(excluding merger expenses) increased $399,000 or 2.0% for the three months
ended September 30, 1999 compared to the three months ended September 30, 1998.
The Company had net income of $22.0 million or $0.43 diluted earnings per common
share for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 compared to $11.3 million or
$0.24 diluted earnings per common share for the nine months ended September 30,
1998. Net interest income increased $8.8 million or 13.5% for the nine months
ended September 30, 1999, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1998.
Non-interest income increased $3.3 million or 18.5% while operating expenses
(excluding merger expenses) decreased $227,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1998. The
results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999
include the operations of FNEF for two months which consist of $370,000 in
revenues and $430,000 in operating expenses. These results are not indicative of
management's future expectations as during this transition period, FNEF is
required to share fees with Deere Credit, Inc. pursuant to terms of the purchase
agreement and loan originations are significantly less in August and September
than other months due to seasonality of the marine loan business. While
originations are expected to significantly increase during the fourth quarter
1999, the business will be considered in transition until December 1999.

NET INTEREST INCOME

             Net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 1999
increased $3.7 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 1998 due
to an increase of $1.1 million in interest income and a decrease of $2.6 million
in interest expense. Interest income increased primarily due to an increase of
approximately $94.5 million in interest earning assets offset by a 9 basis
points decrease in yield on interest earning assets for the three months ended
September 30, 1999 compared to the three months ended September 30, 1998. The
prime interest rate was 8.50% for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1998, compared to an average rate of 8.13% for the quarter ended September 30,
1999. The decrease in market interest rates resulted in an increase in
residential loan refinancings and, to a lesser extent, refinancings of
commercial loans (business and real estate), as well as repricing of adjustable
rate assets. Interest expense decreased due to the declining rate environment,
the Bank's strategy to reduce overall rates paid on certificates of deposit and
an increase in the balances of non interest-bearing and low interest-bearing
deposits. Since the acquisition of First Palm Beach Bancorp ("FPBB"), the Bank
has lowered interest rates offered in the former First Bank of Florida ("First
Bank") branch offices on new and renewed certificate of deposit accounts to
become more aligned with rates offered by commercial banks. During the three
months ended September 30, 1999 certificate of deposit balances, primarily from
the former First Bank deposit base, decreased approximately $79.6 million. In
addition, during the quarter ended December 31, 1998 and throughout 1999 the
Company purchased an aggregate of $9.1 million of its 10.35% Senior Debentures
due June 2002 in an effort to further reduce the cost of interest-bearing
liabilities. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased approximately 54
basis points for the three months ended September 30, 1999, compared to the
three months ended September 30, 1998. Net interest margin increased 43 basis
points for the three months ended September 30, 1999, compared to the three
months ended September 30, 1998.

             Net interest income increased $8.8 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1999 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1998
due to an increase of $2.5 million in interest income and a decrease of $6.3
million in interest expense. The increase in interest income for the nine months
ended September 30, 1999 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1998 is
due to an increase of approximately $105.5 million in interest-earning assets
offset by a 17 basis point decline in asset yield. Net interest spread increased
31 basis points to 2.91% for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 compared
to the nine months ended September 30, 1998 due to consistent decreases in the
cost of interest-bearing liabilities throughout 1999, partially offset by
decreases in the yield on interest-earning assets. Although the cost of interest
bearing liabilities has decreased consistently throughout 1999, the rate of
decrease significantly declined in the third quarter ended September 30, 1999
compared to decreases in the first and second quarters of 1999. While the Bank
expects to continue to execute its strategy to change deposit mix, due to the
recent increases in market interest rates, management does not expect
significant further declines in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities
throughout 2000.

                                       11
<PAGE>
             Even though the cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 6
basis points for the three months ended September 30, 1999 compared to the three
months ended June 30, 1999, net interest margin decreased 13 basis points
primarily due to a decrease in non-interest bearing deposits and a $20 million
asset shift from the residential loan portfolio to the investment portfolio.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

             The provision for loan losses decreased $1.1 million and $3.6
million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999
compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998. The decrease in
the provision for loan losses for the nine months ended September 30, 1999
compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1998 is due primarily to a $2.2
million additional provision made in the quarter ended March 31, 1998 relating
to First Bank's indirect automobile loan portfolio and $1.2 million in merger
related provision adjustments to conform Unifirst Federal Savings Bank's
("Unifirst") credit policies to those of the Bank recorded at closing, July 2,
1998. First Bank began originating indirect automobile loans in large volumes in
August 1995 and continued through September 1996, at which time First Bank
ceased its originations of indirect automobile loans. The additional provision
was based on an evaluation of the portfolio's remaining term to maturity,
historical loss experience, related delinquency rates and the value of the
underlying collateral. The provision for loan losses for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 reflects $300,000 in merger related provision adjustments to
conform Northside's credit policies to those of the Bank, which was recorded at
closing, February 26, 1999.

NON-INTEREST INCOME

             Non-interest income increased $3.5 million for the three months
ended September 30, 1999 compared to the three months ended September 30, 1998.
The increase is attributable to increases of $2.5 million in gain on sales of
loans and investments, $518,000 in service charges on deposit accounts and
$475,000 in other income. The increase in service charges on deposit accounts is
primarily due to an increased volume in transaction accounts and an increase in
the usage of products subject to service charges. Further, in 1999, the Bank
established a formal cash management department to enhance and sell cash
management services to business customers. Gain on sale of loans includes
approximately $300,000 related to the operation of FNEF for the two months ended
September 30, 1999. Non-interest income increased $3.3 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 1999 compared to the nine months ended September 30,
1998 due to an increase of $1.9 million in service charges on deposit accounts,
together with a $1.3 million increase in other income and a $945,000 increase in
net gain on sale of loans, offset by a decrease in net gain on sales of
investments of $847,000. As noted above, the increase in service charges on
deposit accounts is primarily due to an increased volume in transaction accounts
and an increase in the usage of products subject to service charges. In
addition, certain deposit fees were increased in March of 1998, contributing
slightly to the increase in service charges on deposits. The increase in other
income is due primarily to a $1.1 million gain realized on the sale of real
estate associated with one of the Bank's branch offices. The Bank will continue
to operate a branch office at this location. The decrease in gain on sales of
investments is due to $189.5 million of investments sold during the nine months
ended September 30, 1999 compared to $234.8 million sold during the nine months
ended September 30, 1998. The level of investment sales by the former First Bank
was significantly higher than under the Bank's current strategy.

OPERATING EXPENSES

             Operating expenses increased $399,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1999 compared to the three months ended September 30, 1998,
excluding $2.1 million in merger expenses. The increase in operating expenses is
primarily due to decreases of $1.0 million in employee compensation and
benefits, $299,000 in professional fees, $103,000 in communications expense and
$119,000 in insurance and advertising expenses, offset by increases of $907,000
in occupancy expenses and $1.1 million in other expenses. Operating expenses for
the three months ended September 30, 1999 include $430,000 related to the
operation of FNEF. The Company incurred $2.1 million in merger expenses during
the three months ended September 30, 1998 in connection with the acquisition of
Unifirst. The decrease in employee compensation and benefits is primarily due to
cost savings realized as a result of the First Bank merger in October 1998,
offset by increased compensation expense associated with 25 new branch locations
and additions to the Company's senior management team, as well as $200,000
related to FNEF. Professional fees decreased for the three months ended
September 30, 1999 compared to the three months ended September 30, 1998
primarily due to decreases in legal expenses relating to general corporate
operations and problem loans. Occupancy expense increased for the three months
ended September 30, 1999 compared to the three months ended September 30, 1998
primarily due to the opening of ten new branches located in Palm Beach, Broward,
Dade, Martin and Alachua counties during 1998, an additional fifteen new
branches in 1999, as well as an increase in Trust service offices and business
banking locations. Included in the branches added during 1999, are nine bank
branches operating in Kash N, Karry supermarkets that the Bank acquired on June
11, 1999. Other operating expenses increased for the three months ended
September 30, 1999 compared to the three months ended September 30, 1998
primarily due to an increase of approximately $335,000 in data processing
expenses
                                       12
<PAGE>
resulting from the conversion of First Bank's in house data processing system to
the Bank's outside data service bureau, $112,000 in increased amortization
expense associated with the acquisition of nine bank branches and the FNEF
marine loan operation and $75,000 in one-time asset write-offs related to a
branch relocation.

             Operating expenses decreased $97,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1998. The
decrease in operating expenses is primarily due to decreases of $3.0 million in
employee compensation and benefits, $674,000 in professional fees and $710,000
in advertising and promotions, offset by increases of $2.8 million in occupancy
and equipment and $1.7 million in other operating expenses. The decrease in
employee compensation and benefits is primarily due to cost savings realized as
a result of the First Bank merger in October 1998 and a decrease of $625,000
related to the expense for Stock Appreciation Rights (SARs) accrual for the nine
months ended September 30, 1999 compared to the nine months ended September 30,
1998. Professional fees decreased for the nine months ended September 30, 1999
compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1998 primarily due to decreases
in legal expenses relating to general corporate operations and problem loans.
The decrease in advertising and promotion expense is due to cost savings
realized as a result of the First Bank merger. Occupancy expense increased for
the nine months ended September 30, 1999 compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 primarily due to the opening of ten new branches located in
Palm Beach, Broward, Dade, Martin and Alachua counties during 1998, and an
additional fifteen new branches in 1999. Other operating expenses increased for
the nine months ended September 30, 1999 compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 primarily due to increases of approximately $756,000 in data
processing expenses resulting from the conversion of First Bank's in house data
processing system to the Bank's outside data service bureau, $437,000 in costs
associated with outside services, $180,000 in amortization expense attributable
to acquisitions and $152,000 in state assessments due to an increase in total
assets after the acquisition of FPBB..

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

             The provision for income taxes increased $3.3 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1999 compared to the three months ended September 30,
1998 due to an increase in income before income taxes of $10.1 million offset by
a reduction in the effective tax rate from 49% to 36%. The effective tax rate
decreased primarily due to a decrease in non-deductible merger expenses. The
provision for income taxes increased $5.1 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1998 due to
an increase in income before income taxes of $15.9 million offset by a decrease
in the effective tax rate.

LIQUIDITY, SOURCES OF CAPITAL AND 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 possible additional
discretionary action by regulators that,

                                       13
<PAGE>
if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Bank's statements.
Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt
corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve
quantitative measures of the Bank's assets, liabilities and certain
off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The
Bank's capital amounts and classification are also subject to judgments by the
regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

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

             The following table shows the capital amounts and ratios of the
Bank at September 30, 1999:

(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)                   AMOUNT        RATIO
------------------------------------------------------------
Total risk based capital               $222,290        12.75%
Tier 1 risk based capital              $200,112        11.48%
Leverage capital                       $200,112         6.70%
------------------------------------------------------------
             The most recent notification from the Federal Reserve Bank
categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for
prompt corrective action. At September 30, 1999, the Bank exceeded each of the
regulatory capital requirements and was considered a "well capitalized"
institution for regulatory purposes.

             On certain occasions, demand for loan funds may exceed cash
available from deposits. On such occasions, the Bank may borrow funds from the
Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta, draw on lines of credit with commercial banks
and/or enter into repurchase agreements on eligible investments.

             Cash and cash equivalents increased by approximately $39.5 million
during the nine months ended September 30, 1999, due primarily to net cash
provided by operating activities. (See "Financial Condition").

FINANCIAL CONDITION

             As of September 30, 1999, total assets increased approximately
$44.4 million from December 31, 1998. The acquisition of Northside on February
26, 1999 contributed $74.6 million in total assets, $39.6 million in net loans,
$9.8 million in investments, $18.9 million in cash and $6.4 million in property
and equipment and other assets. The branches acquired from FNBCF on June 11,
1999 added $25.1 million in cash and $2.5 million in property and equipment and
other assets. Loans-net and loans held for sale decreased approximately $111.3
million, investments increased approximately $72.0 million and cash and cash
equivalents increased $39.5 million from December 31, 1998 compared to September
30, 1999. The decrease in loans is primarily due to $242.5 million in
residential loan sales during the nine months ended September 30, 1999, offset
by loan production and the purchase of $108.0 million in yacht loans from Deere
Credit, Inc., on July 30, 1999. The increase in investments is primarily due to
$190.0 million in net purchases (net of sales) offset by $105.3 million in
paydowns and $23.5 million increase in net unrealized loss on investments
available for sale. FHLB advances increased $75.0 million to fund investment in
mortgage-back securities purchased and the remaining increase is used to fund
certificate of deposit runoff. Excluding the effects of the Northside
acquisition and FNBCF branch purchase, total assets decreased $57.8 million,
primarily due to $242.6 million in certificate of deposit runoff, which is
consistent with management's plan to reduce the outstanding balance of
certificates of deposit and increase transaction accounts. Certificate of
deposit runoff has been funded by increases in transaction account balances,
proceeds from residential loan sales and borrowed money from FHLB and securities
sold under agreement to repurchase. Advances from borrowers for taxes and
insurance increased $19.4 million from December 31, 1998 compared to September
30, 1999 due to the accumulation of escrow payments related primarily to
residential loans. Bank drafts payable decreased $17.2 million related to an
increased amount of loan funding checks issued at the end of December 1998.

YEAR 2000 MATTERS

             The Bank relies heavily on information technology ("IT") systems
which are primarily provided by third party vendors and other systems and
facilities such as telecommunications, utilities, electronic clearinghouses and
building access control systems to conduct its business. The Bank also has
business relationships with other financial institutions, regulators and
customers who are also reliant on IT and embedded systems to conduct their
businesses. The Bank utilizes and is dependent upon a third-party vendor for its
primary data processing functions and other purchased software packages which
operate on in-house computer
                                       14
<PAGE>
networks. The Bank faces the risk that one or more of its critical service
providers will not be able to provide services to the Bank due to the third
party's inability to resolve its own Year 2000 issues, including those
associated with its own external relationships.

STATE OF READINESS

             In 1997, the Bank's Electronic Data Processing Committee (the "EDP
Committee") began work on the Bank's Year 2000 Project. The EDP Committee is
comprised of members from each business unit of the Bank. The EDP Committee
developed and executed a comprehensive plan designed to ensure the Bank's
mission critical IT systems and mission critical service providers are Year 2000
compliant. The Bank's plan consists of five phases: (1) awareness phase, to
define the Year 2000 issue and obtain senior management and Board of Directors
support, (2) inventory phase, to identify all IT systems and service providers
and assign risk ratings in accordance with its potential business impact,
available alternatives and cost of substitution, (3) assessment phase, to
evaluate the identified mission critical systems, including those systems
provided by third-party vendors, for Year 2000 functionality and readiness, (4)
remediation phase, to replace or upgrade inventoried items to ensure Year 2000
compliance and (5) testing and certification phase, to test all remediated
systems including testing with vendors, to ensure successful operation in the
post-1999 environment. In addition, the Bank's Year 2000 plan includes assessing
the impact of the Year 2000 issue on borrowers' ability to repay loans.

             As of September 30, 1999, the Bank had completed all five phases of
the plan for its mission critical systems. The Bank utilized both internal and
external resources to upgrade, replace and test hardware, software and third
party vendor programs. Through formal communication, the Bank's primary data
processing vendor and other critical vendors have indicated their IT systems are
Year 2000 compliant and tested. The Bank has also contacted all of its
significant commercial loan customers to determine the borrower's ability and
readiness to become Year 2000 compliant. The majority of the loan customers
contacted have responded and the Bank has not identified any significant issues
with respect to such customers. The Bank will continue to monitor the progress
of borrowers' Year 2000 readiness.

YEAR 2000 COSTS

             Year 2000 expenses primarily include costs associated with internal
and external personnel, upgrade packages and disposal of non-compliant hardware
and software. To date, the Bank has not incurred any significant expenses and
does not expect to incur any significant expenses other than internal personnel
resources associated with the Year 2000 project. Costs to purchase new compliant
hardware and software was approximately $2.0 million, which was capitalized. The
cost of the Year 2000 project has been funded through operating cash flows and
has not had a material impact on the Company's financial condition, operations
or cash flows.

RISKS AND CONTINGENCIES

             If the Bank or other third party vendors fail to resolve Year 2000
issues by December 31, 1999, potential consequences would include, among other
possibilities, the inability to accurately and timely process withdrawals,
deposits and payments, update customers' accounts, process financial
information, bill customers, accommodate customer's financial needs, determine
or meet liquidity requirements or report accurate data to management, customers,
shareholders, regulators and others as well as business interruptions or branch
closings, financial losses, reputational harm, increased scrutiny by regulators
and litigation related to Year 2000 issues. The Bank has attempted to limit the
potential impact of the millennium change through its Year 2000 project, which
included monitoring its critical vendors and developing and testing contingency
plans. There can be no assurance that the Bank has been completely successful in
its efforts to resolve Year 2000 issues. Any critical unresolved Year 2000
issues at the Bank or its critical vendors could have a material adverse effect
on the Company's results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.

             The Bank has developed and tested comprehensive contingency plans
designed to ensure the continuity of critical business processes before and
after December 31, 1999. The contingency plans include reasonably likely Year
2000 failure scenarios for its critical business processes, procedures designed
to reduce the impact on the Bank and methods for returning to normal operations.

             The foregoing Year 2000 discussion contains "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995. Such statements, including without limitation anticipated costs, are
based on management's best current estimates, which were derived utilizing
numerous assumptions about future events, including the continued availability
of certain resources, representations received from third parties and other
factors. However, there can be no guarantee that these estimates will be
achieved, and actual results could differ materially from those anticipated.
Specific factors that might cause such material differences include, but are not
limited to, the ability to identify and remediate all relevant systems, results
of Year 2000 parties who are service providers, suppliers or customers of the
Company, unanticipated system costs, the adequacy of and ability

                                                       15

to execute contingency plans and similar uncertainties. The "forward-looking
statements" made in the foregoing Year 2000 discussion speak only as of the date
on which such statements are made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to
update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after
the date on which such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of
unanticipated events.

ITEM 3:      QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

             As a financial institution holding company, Republic's primary
component of market risk is interest rate volatility. Fluctuations in interest
rates will ultimately impact both the level of income and expense recorded on a
large portion of the Bank's assets and liabilities and the market value of all
interest-earning assets, other than those with short term maturities.
Substantially all of the Company's interest rate risk exposure lies at the Bank
level. Accordingly, interest rate risk management procedures are performed at
the Bank level. Based on the nature of the Bank's operations, the Bank is not
subject to foreign currency exchange or commodity price risk. The Bank's real
estate portfolio, concentrated primarily within Palm Beach, Martin, Broward,
Dade, Lee and Hillsborough counties of Florida, is subject to risks associated
with the local economy.

             The Bank manages its interest rate risk exposure by limiting the
amount of long-term fixed rate loans it holds for investment, increasing
emphasis on shorter-term loans for portfolio, commitments to sell loans, and
increasing or decreasing the relative amounts of long-term and short-term
borrowings and deposits. The following table presents the Bank's exposure to
interest rate risk at September 30, 1999:

</TABLE>
       (1)    In preparing the table above, certain assumptions have been made
              with regard to loan prepayments and withdrawals of transaction
              account deposits. Loan prepayment rates are based upon market
              consensus estimates for similar securities. Money Market account
              balances are included in one year or less. Fifty percent of NOW
              and regular savings account deposits are included in one year or
              less, and the remaining fifty percent are included in the greater
              than five year category. All other assets and liabilities have
              been repriced based on the earlier of repricing or contractual
              maturity. The above assumptions are based on the latest available
              assumptions and on remaining balances and should not be regarded
              as indicative of the actual prepayments and withdrawals that may
              be experienced by the Bank. Moreover, certain shortcomings are
              inherent in the analysis presented by the foregoing table. For
              example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar
              maturities or periods for repricing, they may react in different
              degrees to changes in market interest rates. Also, interest rates
              on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in
              advance of or lag behind changes in market interest rates.
              Additionally, certain assets, such as ARM loans, have features
              that restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and
              over the life of the assets.

         In addition to the above, the Bank is committed to fund $290.2 million
in new loans and $42.7 million in construction loans-in-process at September 30,
1999. These loans and commitments are largely protected from interest rate
fluctuations because they are either adjustable rate loans or are fixed rate
loans which the Bank has obtained commitments to sell in the secondary market.
This relationship is not linear or consistent with other interest rate sensitive
assets and liabilities on the Company's balance sheet and management uses
computer modeling in its efforts to manage the effects that interest rate
fluctuations have on income.

         In connection with the acquisition of FPBB in October 1998, the assets
acquired consisted primarily of long-term, fixed rate residential loans and the
liabilities assumed consisted primarily of short-term certificates of deposit,
which significantly increased the Bank's exposure to interest rate risk.
Management's strategy to reduce interest rate risk in this regard has been
targeted towards replacing certain fixed rate residential loans with
shorter-term repricing assets, and replacing certain outstanding amounts of such
certificates of deposit with transaction account balances. This strategy has
contributed to the reduction in the Bank's interest rate sensitivity gap as a
percentage of total assets from (39.8)% at December 31, 1998 to (19.8)% at
September 30, 1999. Management expects to further reduce interest rate exposure
of the Bank as it continues to effect changes in the asset and liability mix in
accordance with this strategy.

         The current potential changes in future earnings relating to financial
assets and liabilities as of September 30, 1999 are as follows:

                      POTENTIAL CHANGE IN FUTURE EARNINGS(2)

                                          YEAR 1          YEAR 2
Interest Rate Change in Basis Points:     -------        --------
+  100                                    (6.23)%        (10.15)%
-  100                                     4.42%           9.86%

       (2)    The most significant assumptions used in this simulation relate
              primarily to the repricing rates of demand and other non-maturity
              deposits and loan and investment prepayment rates. Money market
              and savings deposit accounts are assumed to have the following lag
              characteristics in an increasing rate environment: the Bank will
              recognize a 25 basis point increase at nine months and an
              additional 25 basis point increase at twelve months following a 1%
              increase in the market rate. NOW accounts are considered to be
              non-interest sensitive in an increasing rate environment. Money
              market and savings deposit accounts are assumed to have the
              following characteristics in a decreasing rate environment: the
              Bank will recognize a 50 basis point decrease at three months and
              an additional 50 basis point decrease at nine months following a
              1% decrease in the market rate. Certificates of deposits will
              recognize a 50 basis point increase upon repricing and a 65 basis
              point decrease upon repricing following a 1% increase or decrease
              in the market rate. These lag assumptions are based on a three
              year analysis of changes to the Bank's rates compared to changes
              in the market rates. Loan and investment prepayment rates are
              based upon market consensus estimates for similar securities.
              Certain shortcomings are inherent in the simulation presented by
              the above table. For example, certain financial assets and
              liabilities may have similar maturities or periods for repricing,
              but may react in different degrees to changes in market interest
              rates.

         The potential changes in future earnings shown above are within the
Bank's interest rate risk policy limits.
